Greetings, Mister Principal: The truth is revealed

Hearing Piram's words, Leslie nodded, and then looked at Antoine.

"Mr. Antoine, tell me what your signature looks like."

Nodding, Antoine said immediately.

"My signature is not just a name, but a password."

He glanced at Reiner. This encryption method was first proposed by Reiner after communicating with Antoine. Although it is complicated, it can avoid signature damage caused by spell reconstruction.

This encryption method involves the composition of the alchemy circle.

As we all know, the alchemy circle is composed of runes, spell models, and magic nodes that represent the effectiveness of spells. Generally speaking, the hidden signatures of mages will be placed in the runes and designated using certain combinations of runes and numbers. signature, but this encryption method is broken by reconstruction of the spell.

To put it simply, these runes are a string of characters that express specific meanings. However, if the thief fully understands the function of each rune, then similar runes can be used to achieve a substitute function, just like imitating If you write an article normally, your signature will naturally not be effective.

As for the signature on the spell model, it is very difficult, because the models of most spells are very strict, and a slight mistake will lead to completely different results. Therefore, only some special spell models can leave the author's signature on it, and It is not universal. As for the same spell model, it does not prove its originality.

The magic node, which is the energy supply part of the alchemy circle, complements the spell model, but can change part of it according to specific requirements. Of course, it can also be reconstructed and destroy most of the signatures.

Unless you have special means to add imperceptible things to the alchemy circle, it will be difficult to escape the baptism of reconstruction.

So, after completely reconstructing Antoine's alchemy circle, Piram believed that the alchemy circle in his hand was completely different from Antoine's except for its functions. May be signed.

So even though Antoine seemed calm and collected, Piram didn't panic at all until Antoine started explaining.

First of all, he did a job, which was to sort all the magic runes and words, and then start from the first one and label them with eight-digit serial numbers. However, this is not the serial number of 123456, but Binary numbers, for example, the number 1 at the beginning is defined as 00000001, and the first letter at the beginning is 00001011.

Binary is not the first creation of Reiner in this world. This counting method was invented by William Saxon, a master of the law system, decades ago, but it has never been of practical use.

After changing from text to the binary number 101, Antoine chose his name as a signature, converted it into a binary number, and then selected a number as the encryption key.

The next step is the most critical. Reiner and Antoine chose a complex but unique calculation formula, substituting Antoine's name and the binary number converted from that number into it, and calculated a result. The result is separated by eight digits and then converted into text, which results in an encrypted word.

This word does not appear as the core part of the alchemy circle, because most people will give priority to reconstructing the core spells. Antoine hid it in the details of the alchemy circle in various ways. Here, since it has been encrypted, the arrangement presented has no specific meaning, so it is easy to be ignored.

Leslie and Sheila quickly began to investigate the alchemy circle. In less than a quarter of an hour, they discovered three such hidden signatures in the alchemy circle.

"Wait a minute, two Sheriffs, these runes are very commonly used, he may just be trying his luck."

Piram was a little impatient at this time. No one would care about those random and unimportant runes, because most people would only set their signatures in the core part of the spell.

"No, it's not luck."

Reiner finally spoke. He glanced at the encrypted word and then said.

"Why do we specifically use troublesome encryption methods instead of simply replacing a few letters? Because this is a means to verify the creator. Under this specific order, the chaotic runes also make sense. ."

He asked Antoine to project the complicated calculation in mid-air, and then said.

"Mr. Antoine just said that the encryption method is to substitute his name and a number into the calculation, and this number is exactly the side length of the spell model."

The spell models are all complex geometric figures, but the number of side lengths of each model is fixed and cannot be changed.

Antoine used the calculation circle and substituted his name and numbers into the calculation. Soon, he came up with a string of binary numbers. After converting them, he found them in Piram's alchemy circle. That meaningless word.

"This is impossible, you must be cheating!"

Piram was already a little panicked. He took a step back and shook his head violently.

“We took one more step when designing the formula, that is, if we substitute the encryption result and the encryption key in reverse, we can get the originally encrypted word.”

Reiner said, and Antoine waved his arms at the same time. The meaningless words entered the calculation and soon got a name.

It was Antoine.

"So, the evidence is conclusive, Mr. Piram, it seems that you have indeed stolen other people's magical achievements."

Leslie said, looking at Piram coldly.

Stealing other people's magical achievements is a felony for a mage. The lightest punishment is to be deprived of all magical ranks and work in a wild demiplane for fifty years, and this cannot be reduced by human relationships or money. ~IndoMTL.com~ Piram certainly knows.

Because of this, fear instantly enveloped his heart.

"In addition, Mr. Piram, I don't remember any mention in any news newspapers. Last night, Sanderson attacked Antoine's alchemy workshop with high explosives, right?"

Spreading his hands, Leslie smiled as if his plan had succeeded.

"Antoine, you plotted against me!"

Piram's expression changed. He didn't expect that Antoine Reiner would use such a complex and unprecedented method to target him. This was no longer something Piram could prevent. It was completely cheating!

He was already panicking and raised his left hand in a hurry, and the fireball flew out towards Antoine. At the same time, a green acid splashed out from his right hand, pointing at Reiner.

This was an attack using magic props. There was no warning, and Leslie and others had no time to stop it.

In front of Antoine, a shimmer of light flashed on Sheila's gloves, and the copper and iron walls of Isharis collided with the blazing fireball. The sheriff took several steps back to stabilize his body.

On Reiner's side, green acid came towards him. Reiner tried to retreat, but he still couldn't escape the speed of the acid.

At this moment, Claire stretched out a hand, holding a silver pendant tightly in her hand. From the pendant, a transparent barrier appeared, blocking the progress of the acid.

Both attacks were blocked, but Piram had already escaped a considerable distance. Just when Reiner thought Piram was about to escape, Leslie took action.

He raised his right hand, and the flintlock gun in his hand fired immediately, but what spewed out from the muzzle was not a spark, but a ray of light.

The light hit Piram's back directly. The mage staggered and fell to the ground, making no sound.
