Chapter 2786: Chapter 1194: Engineering Illusion Technique (2)

"What on earth is going on?" At this moment, Gaven couldn’t help but recall his physics classes from his previous life.

He merely blinked, feeling momentarily dazed.

The once empty blackboard was now filled with astronomical-like physics formulas.

His small escapades with the Earth Bear only lasted a few days, all things considered.

How is it that events at the Gods Forging Factory feel like they’ve lasted for years?

"This is engineering illusion; you might as well call it illusion engineering. It’s a professional ability of these gnome engineers.

They can temporarily manifest objects from engineering theories into reality using true illusions, and apply them in actual combat."

The Legendary Arcanist appeared silently beside Gaven, explaining to him.

"Engineering illusion?" Even with Gaven’s vast knowledge, he was momentarily dumbstruck. "How can these two unrelated abilities of engineering and illusion be combined?"

"Why not?" Philancy countered. "It’s merely using the power of illusions to manifest some objects, much like the Mist Hand I controlled earlier. As long as it can exist and be manufactured in reality, it can be temporarily simulated in this manner!"

As she spoke, the white mist surrounding the Legendary Arcanist continued to coalesce.

At first, it enveloped her, forming a towering steel giant over ten meters high—instead of a futuristic sci-fi style, it was more of a magical realism style.

The figure bore a resemblance of four or five parts to Philancy herself, clad in heavy steel armor, much like an Iron Golem.

It then transformed into a massive steel war chariot, and then into a steel shadow flyer.

Clearly, engineering illusion was no longer an exclusive ability of these gnome engineers.

Through joint research with them, the Legendary Arcanist had perfectly learned this professional ability and integrated it into her own skill set.

In this regard, she had an innate advantage; the ether mist around her inherently hovered between reality and illusion, unwavering like a persistent plaster that couldn’t be discarded.

With Gaven’s suggestion and assistance, the Legendary Arcanist had long ago started employing reverse operations.

Since she couldn’t completely rid herself of the ether mist, she decided to control it and harness it for her use.

The benefits of doing so were evident: Philancy could not only obtain an additional power source, but she could also, to a certain extent, consume this ether power during use, achieving the purpose of suppression.

It was a win-win solution.

Previously, the use of these ether powers was limited and could only serve as an auxiliary means.

These gnome engineers opened a whole new world for her.

Gaven’s current ability to absorb new concepts was astonishingly strong; he not only digested and absorbed this entirely new conceptual ability but also delved deeper, asking: "This engineering illusion shouldn’t be just an ordinary illusion that ignores facts and fabricates wild fantasies, should it?"

"Correct." Philancy affirmed, "This engineering illusion is founded on rigorous engineering theories.

The materials used in illusion transformation must exist in reality.

The items manifested must be realistically producible. If something cannot be truly manufactured, even if it is manifested, it would still be a useless inanimate object or a semi-defective product."

"No wonder gnome inventors are hailed as the best inventors of Felen, with this ability alone they live up to their reputation." Gaven couldn’t help but praise, "This is practically the perfect test ability.

Through this spell, one can conduct actual tests on design blueprints and then adjust and improve the blueprints based on the actual results.

This not only greatly improves efficiency but also saves countless experimental time, materials, and funds."

What’s the biggest challenge in invention and creation?

Without a doubt, it’s field testing.

Sometimes, after days of theoretical design and research, during the actual construction of a prototype, one might find it completely unfeasible.

That’s a common occurrence, taking up a large part of invention and creation.

In this process, the funds expended would be vast.

With engineering illusion, this becomes infinitely simpler.

One can continuously use spells to make trial and error, seeking out the correct path.

Once the blueprint is perfected to the extreme, it can be put into actual mass production.

It seems that my mindset is still not liberated enough; certain measures could be bolder, more unrestrained, leading to a faster development pace.

Once he figured this out, Gaven no longer held back, immediately sharing technological application items from Earth, from household appliances like refrigerators and washing machines to large instruments like airplanes and cannon, small items like cell phone batteries, to massive objects like satellite space stations.

He shared the concepts of these modern items all at once with the Legendary Arcanist.

What limits these inventors now is their imagination and future research directions.

Once given direction, their dynamic capabilities and research speeds will definitely surpass Gaven’s imagination.

By then, it might be the entire society’s productivity that is unable to keep pace.

As for whether this would expose his soul’s secret,

Gaven has long ceased worrying about this, not because his current strength is formidable, deterring anyone from questioning him.
