"Can more enter while he is working?" Inquisitor Niall asked as he watched the replay from the teacher’s station at the entrance to the Rogue Training building.
Rae nodded happily. "You can come and go freely. It isn’t an instance like the Trial Tower. But that also means if someone kills the living things inside, you’ll have to use mana to replace them.
Most of them are part of the illusionary domain, and easy to replace. But some of the stronger ones are actual golems and summoned creatures.
Those will take more mana.
The adjustment for the power level of the creatures inside is here on the panel. I set it to default to Commander Rank, which is manageable for all the teachers, but you can turn it all the way up to Totem Rank if you want."
The Rogue stared at Rae for a moment, and the spider shrugged. "What? Your skills will get rusty if you don’t practice, and I give you another four hours before you’re forced to advance to the Totem Rank just by standing here."
Still, a Totem Ranked haunted forest was a bit excessive in a facility designed to train children.
Karl watched their interaction, and decided to add a few details for clarity.
"The spell itself is Mythic Rank. The fact that it stops at Totem Ranked is for safety. You see, the Mythic Blessing reduces damage by ninety percent. So, the core structure of the spell will only take ten percent damage from Totem Ranked targets, meaning that it is easier to repair and maintain.
But it also will only take one percent damage from students, as the Totem and Mythic Blessings stack.
At that rate, the natural regeneration of most of the elements in an Illusionary Domain will cause them to self repair without anyone having to take direct action." He explained.
"That is true for every training building that we constructed. So, if someone can find Professor Tank, he can go wild in the Berserker Training room without worrying too much about damaging stuff.
Well, as long as the students are in the safe room. The aftershocks of a Totem Ranked battle normally cover many kilometres, so they’ll be bouncing off the walls of the Domain." Rae added.
That was one complication that they hadn’t been able to remove. The Illusionary Domain could only be so much bigger than the building that they put it in, but the shockwaves of a high-level battle covered quite a large area.
As evidenced by the lack of any standing trees within fifty kilometres of the Academy.
It was a good thing that Karl and Oobleck hadn’t fought a running battle, or they would have almost certainly gotten one or two towns within the radius of their destruction.
While the foliage wouldn’t survive any better next time, there might still be some buildings standing if another similar fight occurred over the Academy.
