"So you want to create a long-range artillery magic yourself?"

Although he felt that the inertia of history was truly terrifying, Fang Zheng still asked a question just to be on the safe side.

"What makes you think that?"

You know, in the original work, Nanoha chose to create this magic as her trump card because she couldn't defeat Fate. But now Fate hasn't appeared yet... There's no need for you to be so anxious.

"Because I got some inspiration from my little sister Xiao Hei."

"inspiration?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but glance at Xiao Hei, who giggled and made a victory gesture to Fang Zheng - this gave Fang Zheng a very bad feeling.

"Yes."

Nanoha nodded somewhat frustratedly.

"My reaction speed can't keep up with Sister Xiaohei, and manipulating magic bullets for accurate shooting is not my strong point..."

This time Fang Zheng did not refute. In fact, Nanoha's performance in this regard was indeed very average. Of course - this was relative to Xiao Hei, the "ARCHER".

"Then when I asked Sister Xiaohei for advice, she told me, 'It doesn't matter if you can't shoot accurately, as long as you make sure you can attack the opponent so that he can't escape.'..."

"So you're just going to use a large-scale AOE?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng was completely speechless. He looked at Xiao Hei silently again, but Xiao Hei ran off to tease Illya with a giggle.

Come to think of it, Xiao Hei does seem to really like blasting around with a pseudo-spiral sword all day long...

"But you should know that your magic power is not enough to complete this kind of large-scale AOE bombardment."

Fang Zheng still wanted to try the corrective force that could change the world.

"Well, but I thought of a good idea."

Having said that, Nanoha excitedly described it to Fang Zheng.

"I found that after every battle, there is a lot of magic power scattered around. If I can use this free magic power in some way, then I can launch a powerful enough range bombardment at once!"

“…”

Looking at Nanoha's excited face, Fang Zheng was speechless. He was sure that Nanoha was now in a state of excitement, thinking, "This problem is difficult, but I finally figured out a way to solve it." When she came up with this idea, she probably hadn't considered what this magic meant, nor had she thought about how terrifying this magic was... She just naturally thought that this was the right thing to do...

So does pink turn black when cut open?

Or natural black?

But luckily, at least the other cute girl is white inside and out.

After taking a look at Sakura who was posing under Tomoyo's guidance not far away, Fang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, let me think about it..."

Fang Zheng certainly couldn't copy the original Starlight Burst. In the original novel, it was because of this move that caused too much damage to Nanoha's body that she suffered from a hidden disease. But Fang Zheng had to admit that Starlight Burst was indeed a signature move of Nanoha. When you mention Nanoha, you have to think of Starlight Burst, and when you mention Starlight Burst, you have to think of Nanoha...

Using free magic power is indeed a good idea, but a major weakness of the original Starlight Burst is that the charging time is too long, so Nanoha must find a way to restrain the opponent before taking action every time.

Of course, from a certain perspective, letting someone face despair is terrifying in itself.

But strictly speaking, in the original work, this move was not figured out by Nanoha herself, but Fate used this move to trick Nanoha first, and then Nanoha took it and used it immediately...

How should I put it...it's all my own fault.

"Give me the Heart of the Rising Sun, so I can see it."

Fang Zheng had to admit that "how to make the starlight explosion more powerful" was indeed a very interesting topic, and he couldn't help but want to give it a try.

"Yes, teacher."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Nanoha nodded, then obediently canceled her transformation and handed over the Heart of the Rising Sun. After Fang Zheng took the Heart of the Rising Sun, he quickly opened his personal terminal, connected to the Heart of the Rising Sun, and began to search for the information inside.

Compared to Sakura's "Sealed Key", Nanoha's "Heart of the Rising Sun" is more like an intelligent magic product, so Fang Zheng's personal terminal can easily enter its core for modification and viewing.

"Let me see, um... this is interesting... maybe I can do this..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng began to type on the keyboard.

"How do you feel about this?"

"Why?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Nanoha was stunned for a moment.

"What?"

"I added a module to the Heart of the Rising Sun."

Fang Zheng looked at the screen with satisfaction, then looked at Nanoha again.

"During combat, you can turn on the module, and it will automatically absorb the free magic power, just like NP or rage value in fighting games..."

Fang Zheng suddenly found this inspiration from the game settings. Right, since it is a big move, it must be released after the NP is fully accumulated! Then wouldn't it be fine if we just set up a program that can accumulate NP during battle?

Of course, relying on NP to accumulate enough magic power to release the starlight explosion is definitely not enough, but in fact, what Fang Zheng did was just to remove what he thought was the most dangerous part of the whole process.

As we all know, the steps of the magic of Starlight Burst are to bind and condense the magic power, and then shoot it out in one breath.

The most dangerous part is "shooting", because a large amount of magic power will cause a great burden and impact on the user's body. If you have to make an analogy, it is like a person standing behind a cannon and firing it manually, and then he has to bear the reaction force from the firing with his whole body.

If you have to endure this kind of impact for years, it would be strange if your body didn't have problems.

The purpose of Founder's absorption of NP is to create a "protective wall" to resist this impact force.

This would turn the original manual cannon into an automatic one, and Nanoha wouldn't have to stand behind to bear the aftereffects of firing the cannon, because part of the magic power would be used to absorb and resist the recoil... This was the best solution Fang Zheng could think of at the moment.

In simple terms, the original "Starlight Burst" requires Nanoha to condense the free magic power into a cannonball, then stuff it into the barrel, and then manually fire it. However, in the improved version of "Starlight Burst", Nanoha only needs to make the cannonball and fill the barrel, and the firing process is directly automated.

Of course, because a portion of the magic power was used for "automation", the power of the starlight explosion would not be very strong at the beginning. On the contrary, its power would gradually increase with the passage of time. And considering the need for a large-scale AOE, Fang Zheng directly changed the original cylindrical bombardment to a large-area coverage shape...

However, after Nanoha learned of Fang Zheng's idea, she suddenly had a new idea.

"Teacher, can you modify this magic?"

"Revise? Modify to what?"

“That’s…that’s…”

Nanoha didn't seem to know what to say. Fang Zheng just saw her dancing around for a while, and then she seemed to have thought of something.

"It's like a flashlight. It can illuminate a large area at first, but if I rotate the flashlight, the illuminated area will be smaller, but it will become brighter..."

"I see what you mean."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng nodded, and at the same time, he once again wiped the cold sweat from deep in his heart. He certainly understood what Nanoha meant. To put it bluntly, it was to use a large-scale AOE attack to cover the opponent within the attack range. Once the opponent was AOE, he could not escape and could only resist, which was equivalent to passively restricting the opponent's actions.

After that, Nanoha increased the power by shrinking the attack range...

Oh my god, this is fatal!

Fang Zheng glanced at Nanoha who was looking at him excitedly, and at the same time silently worried about Fate.

If Fate met Nanoha now, wouldn't she be beaten to a pulp?
