Chapter 136: One Hundred and Thirty-Six, Offense and Defense (Central)
In the inner world, although there are all kinds of demons living in the inner world, there are various techniques, magical, incomprehensible and other words, which may not be enough to describe them. However, in the inner world, there is still a law that is generally consistent with the real world and needs to be followed.
The law of conservation of energy: energy will neither be produced nor disappear from thin air. It can only be transformed from one form to other form, or transferred from one object to another. During the transformation or transfer, the total amount of energy remains unchanged.
This law is something that demons must follow.
No matter which skill is "sword skill", "martial arts" or "magic", the same is true whether it is "internal force", "magic" or "small universe" that promotes this skill to implement.
The so-called essence of skills is to put it bluntly the process of spending the mastered "energy" in a specific way to achieve a predetermined result. The most fundamental rule it follows is that the greater the energy it can release at the same time, the greater the change in the result achieved.
However, just releasing energy in large quantities at the same time cannot be called a "skill". That is something that every demon can do, but the carefully manipulated external energy can be done under the principle of energy dissipation, which is actually quite limited.
——Only by spending energy efficiently through special methods can it be called skill.
Because the process of applying the skills is determined and there are marginal benefits, a skill does not mean that the more energy you invest at one time, the better. When the energy invested exceeds a limit threshold, the ratio of the energy invested to the effect of the result will rapidly decay. Therefore, a skill allows the level of the limit threshold of the energy invested, which objectively allows the technique to be divided into high-end and low-end.
However, the level of the energy limit threshold is not the only criterion for evaluating the quality of a skill. In addition, the minimum standard for promoting the operation of a skill and the "performance ratio" that can result from the same energy are also two very important factors.
Since skills appear, the purpose of making them appear must exist objectively. Depending on the use of skills, they can be divided into categories such as "offensive", "defense", "assistance", "gain", and "health".
These are a long way to explain them one by one, so we are only talking about the category "offensive".
Although according to the basic rules of skills, it seems that as long as the efficiency ratio and limit threshold are improved, the higher the skills will become, the more powerful they will become. In reality, such an idea does not always hold.
The only purpose of the technique that appears for attack is to knock down the enemy. So if you cannot hit the enemy, no matter how powerful the ability you can emit is, it is just a pity.
It seems good to blindly improve the effectiveness ratio and limit threshold of the technique. But in fact, it is like a strong man dancing with heavy hammers. Although there is a roughness, it is not enough to deal with various reality.
Therefore, in order to hit enemies farther away, the "long-range strike" technique was derived; but in this way, it may still not hit the target, so the "tracking lock, remote operation" technique was also born accordingly; if the enemy is wearing armor that has a high resistance to simple energy, then converting the energy emitted by the technique into lightning will achieve better results; the principle is the same, flame, a perfunctory that can use high temperatures and burning can continue to cause damage even if it is blocked, also has a large market.
It is precisely because of these various purposes that attack techniques have gradually become a very large system. Although in some aspects, in order to meet the needs of these techniques to varying degrees, their comparisons with the most direct and simplest basic energy strikes have all been weakened in the production of damage, but because of the extremely targeted characteristic, they gradually replaced the latter over time.
...
Nowadays, the simple attack skills like the latter are nowhere left. Like the thunder bomb released by Ling Fei, it is obviously not in that industry.
In fact, the positioning of "wind magic" alone shows the problem to a large extent. Wind energy is flexible, easy to be unexpected, and has a good fit with advanced enhancement such as remote operation or navigation positioning; while general wind energy is like a sharp wind blade as a means of killing, which is very close to physical attack, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of "energy" protection means.
These characteristics of thunder bombs have more or less experiences. Andalil recognizes its attributes and defends with the same type of wind defense magic, which is a very safe response. The energy of the same attribute that acts for "attack" or "defense" purposes has the greatest utility hedging ratio. Moreover, because the purpose of protection is simpler, and does not require more attachment and higher-deep conditions like offensive techniques, it can often block a lot of offensive techniques with less energy consumption.
Unfortunately, Andalil did not expect that when the Thunderbolt bomb was strengthened, it chose a very special condition...
Skills have various enhancements due to their targeted purpose. Of course, the proportion of energy they consume is different. Generally speaking, the longer the distance, the more precise the process, the more special the ability, the more energy they consume.
For example, if the energy consumed by strengthening the range is one, then the energy required for tracking locked enhancement is five or more. Similarly, the "yin spirit" that can ignore defense naturally consumes more energy than ordinary attacks in the process of strengthening.
But such enhancement is often worth it. In certain specific realms, they may be better or not. For example, when a certain amount of energy is converted into "ice rays" and directly attacking the enemy, it may only be able to frostbite the enemy's limbs and a certain part, which has a slight impact on the battle situation. And if this quantitative energy is replaced with a "greasy object" with small friction and is quietly released to the ground... In terms of simple results, such a technique seems to give up the possibility of causing damage to the enemy, but once the enemy may be caught and slipped, then at least it can give yourself the advantage in a short time.
For example, the Thunder Blast has made a more special advanced enhancement on the basic strengthening. One-third of the magic required to cast this magic is spent on this enhancement. It has given the Thunder Blast to ignore the "physical collision" characteristics. During the entire process of this blue light ball being produced and it will never contact other objects!
It is a protective magic specially used to defend against wind magic, and it is no exception!!
Therefore, when Andalil relied on his defensive magic to approach the two thunder bombs, the two blue light balls that had expanded many times passed through the light curtain next to Andalil without any obstacles and continued to approach Andalil's body.
In an instant, Andalil's pupils suddenly expanded a lot. She realized the particularity of the thunder bomb, but she was a little helpless about the current situation...
In order to make a quick battle, Andalil was approaching these two thunder bombs at almost full speed. Her speed was too fast. Even she herself could not ignore the inertia generated by high-speed movement and could stop by saying a word.
So, the current situation is not so much that the thunder bomb hit Andalil, but rather that she took the initiative to send herself to the front of the muzzle.
Near the ribs of Andalil, the two thunder bombs shining with green light not only became more prosperous, but also the expanded volume shrank at a rapid speed. In the blink of an eye, they changed to the size of a palm, and the compression process did not stop yet. Their volume was still shrinking until half a second later, it turned into a ball of light the size of a rice grain. While it burst out with a light that was almost impossible to see directly, a fierce explosion occurred!
Compressing the density of the surrounding air and releasing them all with the explosion situation is the means by which the thunder bombs use to damage the enemy!
Because the compressed air is produced by magic, and the thunder bomb has the characteristic of ignoring collisions, generally speaking, such an explosion occurs in the enemy's body and can cause the best damage.
However, when the compression process of the thunder bombs is irreversible, once they start to compress, they will become unmovable. Ignoring the process of physical collision, the enemy can stay away from the subsequent explosion without any constraints when they compress.
——No skills are perfect and impeccable. The reinforcement conditions selected by skills are both their strengths and their shortcomings. Choosing targeted means giving up general use. The more targeted the skills are, the more so the more powerful the skills are. Only by choosing the most powerful skills at the right time can they maximize their effects.
Andalil's speed has been mentioned repeatedly. Her speed is quite amazing. Ling Fei and Wei Ye, whose quality has not been strengthened, was quite barely enough to capture her figure with his eyes when Andalil was moving at high speed. Therefore, Ling Fei could not choose the best attack time, which is what he should do. Even if these two thunder bombs really exploded in Andalil's body, it was just luck, not Ling Fei's real ability...
But even so, the damage these two thunder bombs brought to Andalil was quite considerable.
The female devil's body was covered with blood, and the pain suddenly shook the sky!
Moreover, such an attack inevitably caused a brief pause in Andalil's body. Wei Ye, who has been paying close attention to Andalil, certainly would not miss it!
He pointed the copper coin sword forward, and in the sky, another lightning bolt of the bowl was slashed straight towards Andalil!!

The day I said that the double update was not achieved before, I went to set these skills.
Now only a part of it is released, and the others include the compatibility of various energy and strengthening. For example, magic is more suitable for changing properties and expanding; while internal strength can improve physical fitness and other things...
I originally wanted to make a detailed setting, including redemption list, proportional description, etc.
But when the interest subsided, we realized that the project volume was really too big, so it became a pit...
