"Lord Fang Ka, what are these two beads?"
Xia Lin gazed at the two beads in Fang Ka's hand and asked curiously.
Fang Ka glanced at the beads in his hand and then lightly replied, "They are crafted from several magic materials and can serve as carriers for this high-tier Dark Element magic array."
Once a magic array is set up, it cannot be moved. However, it wasn't long before clever mages figured out a solution: the 'carrier.'
Craft a 'carrier' that resonates with the magic array, set the magic array upon this compatible 'carrier,' and create a resonance between the two. This way, moving the 'carrier' means indirectly moving the magic array.
However, this doesn't come without limitations. Even for magic arrays of the same type, compatible 'carriers' are different. The only way to determine the suitable 'carrier' for a magic array is through continuous alchemical experimentation.
Without a compatible 'carrier,' one can only choose a location for setup. The magic array will quickly resonate with the same elements in the surrounding space, which is the reason it cannot be moved.
The principle of the 'carrier' is quite simple: create a more intimate isolated environment, allowing the magic array to resonate only with itself and preventing it from resonating with the same elements in the surrounding space.
This achieves the effect of moving the carrier to move the magic array.
This aspect of the field belongs to the so-called White Alchemy Domain.
Many major powers seek out large numbers of alchemists to research this area.
Fang Ka's types of 'carriers' number five, corresponding to five Dark Element magic arrays, all studied and documented by Kain himself.
Fang Ka briefly explained 'carriers' to Xia Lin, then continued, "The high-tier Dark Element magic array I will impart to you is called the 'Eye of Darkness.'
"It is not an independent magic array but rather has one main array and multiple subsidiary arrays."
"Simply put, after setting up the main magic array here, you can also set up related multiple sub-magic arrays. Using the main magic array, you can observe the situations at all subsidiary magic arrays."
Hearing Fang Ka's words, Xia Lin asked in confusion, "Lord Fang Ka, what do you mean?"
Fang Ka glanced at the nearby Nightmare Beast, then said calmly, "The Nightmare Beast is an advanced undead creature that thrives both in sea and on land, with swift speeds both swimming in the sea and running on land."
"However, comparatively speaking, its flying ability is even more extreme."
"My meaning is simple: you form a contract with two Nightmare Beasts and assign one to Noel."
"One Nightmare Beast, under non-crowded conditions, can approximately carry four people. You can have Noel bring three merfolk, then I'll open a small opening underwater, allowing them to ride the Nightmare Beast out to investigate."
"The main purpose this time is to explore the environment around this island. Having too many people isn't actually good."
"We can remain on the island, observing Noel and the others' situation. If anything goes wrong, we can ride the Nightmare Beast left here to provide assistance. How about it?"
"Of course, the likelihood of encountering danger is quite low because the flying speed of Nightmare Beasts is unparalleled, and their ability to escape is top-notch."
Fang Ka did not want Xia Lin to leave the island, as he needed her assistance in crafting alchemy potions and urgently studying alchemy knowledge for future preparations.
Additionally, if Noel and the others discovered anything threatening to the island, Xia Lin could ensure his safety.
Hearing this, Xia Lin hesitated for a moment and looked at Noel beside her: "But, Noel... no one can control her except me..."
Noel instantly scrunched her little face and tightly hugged Xia Lin's arm: "Sister Xia Lin~ I know how to behave, I definitely won't cause trouble~"
Xia Lin extended her other hand to rub her temples: "Now you've made me even more worried."
Fang Ka chuckled at this, then brought out two slightly smaller black beads: "These are the carriers for the high-tier Dark Element magic array 'Dark Speech.' Once set, holding these carriers will allow you to hear all sounds from the other side and communicate with them at any time."
After listening to Fang Ka, Xia Lin's eyes lit up: "Oh? This is good, with this, I can be assured."
Noel, on the other hand, donned a bitter expression, pouting slightly.
Fang Ka refrained from saying more, directly imparting both 'Dark Speech' and 'Eye of Darkness' to Xia Lin.
Xia Lin's Dark Affinity had already improved to the point where she could flawlessly execute the 'Nightmare Beast Contract,' so setting up these two magic arrays was no problem.
Soon, both magic arrays were set up. Curiously, Xia Lin activated them for a test, finding them quite effective, and began organizing personnel to accompany Noel.
After a brief consideration, Xia Lin decided to dispatch Nona, Tina, and Parod to accompany Noel.
Quickly, the three adult merfolk arrived.
"Nona greets Lady Xia Lin and Lord Fang Ka."
"Tina greets Lady Xia Lin and Lord Fang Ka."
"Parod greets Lady Xia Lin and Lord Fang Ka."
Upon arrival, the three immediately bowed in greeting to Xia Lin and Fang Ka in sequence.
With the personnel confirmed, Fang Ka wasted no more words and straightforwardly pointed in a direction: "Follow this direction to wait at the sea boundary. I will open a gap there shortly, and you will immediately leave through it."
"I'll use the Eye of Darkness to monitor your moves. When you return, come back to the same spot, and if it is safe, I'll reopen the gap for you to come in."
"Remember, if you encounter any irrepressible danger, use the Nightmare Beast to move in another direction, then return to the island after evading."
"With the Nightmare Beast, as long as you don't foolishly get ambushed or surrounded, you'll be absolutely safe."
"Understood?"
After Fang Ka's instructions, Noel eagerly raised her hand: "Lord Fang Ka, I got it."
Fang Ka glanced at her sideways: "Repeat it."
Noel: "?"...
After a few seconds of silence, Noel immediately turned to Xia Lin: "Isn't it that we can talk anytime? Sister Xia Lin remembers perfectly and will definitely remind me at all times~ ahaha..."
Xia Lin looked at Noel with a mix of affection and helplessness: "Lord Fang Ka, don't bother arguing with her, she's always like this... I will remind her at all times, she listens to me the most."
