In a quiet room.
Sauron slowly closed his eyes and began to perceive the magic network, which is commonly known as the "magic net" by spellcasters. The magic net is an invisible energy force field that exists in many places in the multiverse. Its greatest role is to help casters build spell models, and then condense the power that exists in nature, and finally form spell slots for storage. After the spell slot is stored, you only need to activate it with spell-casting actions and words, and then you can quickly draw nearby energy to cast spells.
The energy in the natural world is very manic and not easy to control. Without the magic net, the restrictions on casting spells will be greatly improved!
Another function of the magic net is to limit the abilities of spellcasters, preventing some powerful spellcasters who are even feared by the gods from disrupting the balance of order. It is something that helps spellcasters who are not talented enough to cast spells more easily, and restricts spellcasters with extraordinary talents from threatening the realm of the gods. Generally speaking, the magic net is still very important, because without it, the number of spellcasters in the entire world will be reduced by about 90%.
The belief network of the gods is also connected to the magic net, but it is at the highest level of the magic net, and the magic is the power fed back by the power of faith.
The magic net helps the caster manipulate energy, and normal spellcasters can touch the most superficial magic network.
meditation.
This is the easiest way for a wizard to perceive the magic net. It looks no different from sitting quietly, and does not require any specific posture. The key is to let go of your body and mind, gradually forget your perception of the body, and then extend your consciousness to the energy of the outside world. Sauron, who had successfully worked part-time, directly skipped the initial accumulation period of meditation, that is to say, he didn't have to meditate for a long period of time like a wizard apprentice before he could touch the surface of the magic net.
As the perception gradually spread, Sauron faintly touched a layer of invisible energy force field, which looked like a spider web formed by the interlacing of countless invisible lines, and the squares between each interlaced position were used by wizards Spell bits. This is the most superficial spell slot and can be used to help cast 0-level spells. The magic net is just a channel to help cast spells. The real power lies in the wizard's brain, that is, the spell model built in the brain.
After successfully connecting to the magic net, Sauron stopped meditating.
Meditation is not the main means for wizards to improve their strength. The real power lies in the development of their brains. The greatest use of meditation is to help them deeply understand the magic net, and then extend to the outermost energy understanding.
"Increase the professional level of wizards."
Sauron was not in a hurry to analyze the spell model, but started to increase his professional level. A higher level of wizard would help him get in touch with the magic net, and then speed up the speed of analyzing the spell model. The killing experience required to upgrade the level of the wizard itself is about 50% higher than that of other professions, and if it is a part-time job, there is about 20% experience penalty. Upgrading to level 2 thief only needs about 200 killing experience points, but upgrading to level 2 wizard requires more than 300 points.
"The wizard profession has been upgraded to level 2."
"Acquire 22 (intelligence value 18 + (intelligence 18-10) * 0.5) skill points, and the life value increases by 9 points (professional life 4 points + (physical constitution 20-10) * 0.5)."
"Get 1 free attribute."
The biggest advantage of part-time jobs is that you can get extra free attribute points, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult to upgrade a certain occupation to a higher level. At the beginning, many people liked to work part-time with 4 occupations at the same time, but the result of this was that unless they succeeded in killing gods, all occupation levels were not high. Because the first part-time job has a 20% killing experience penalty, the second job is a 40% killing experience penalty, and the part-time job needs to pay 5000 killing experience points.
The third part-time job is even more exaggerated. Not only does it have a 60% killing experience penalty, but it also requires 10,000 killing experience points for part-time jobs. This multi-job penalty is applied to all professional levels, that is to say, Sauron has to pay an additional 20% of killing experience to increase the thief professional level after multi-job.
Under normal circumstances.
Few people work part-time in so many occupations, because part-time jobs have attribute requirements and also need to spend a lot of time.
Even the aborigines with amazing talent, and even the sons of gods with extremely high natural attributes, can only work part-time in about two occupations. Only some gods can fully work part-time and work part-time in several professional levels at the same time. Part-time jobs require more time and energy, and converting them into killing experience requires more soul energy.
Before the professional level is raised to level 5, the killing experience required for upgrading is not much.
However, from the second level of the professional level, the killing experience required to improve the strength increases linearly, and it is an astonishing value when it reaches the third level. At that time, there are not enough enemies in the mortal world, and it is impossible to improve your strength without going to the underground world and exploring the outer planes.
For example, if you want to advance to the legendary field, basically the abyss is a place you must walk.
"Free attributes are assigned to intelligence."
Although Sauron really wanted to improve his agility, considering the upcoming collapse of the magic net, he decided to increase his intelligence to 20 points first, so as not to completely lose his ability to cast spells in the future. The skill points obtained by upgrading the wizard level are allocated to knowledge by him. One of the important factors for a wizard to master the speed of spells is the knowledge skill points he possesses.
"The wizard profession has been upgraded to level 3."
"Acquire 24 (intelligence value 19 + (intelligence 19-10) * 0.5) skill points, and the life value increases by 9 points (professional life 4 points + (physical constitution 20-10) * 0.5)."
"Gain a feat point."
A third-level wizard can get an extra specialty point, but it can only be selected from the specialties of the wizard profession. Sauron is not very familiar with the promotion of wizards, so he first checked the spellcasting specialties that wizards can master.
"Combat casting [mastery]: wizards gradually improve their abilities during long-term training. Even if they are attacked in battle, their spells will not be easily interrupted. With the improvement of this ability, even if wizards are directly attacked , can still successfully cast spells. When this ability is improved to a certain level, some part-time wizards can also cast spells while fighting. However, this may require the cooperation of [Spell Silent] and [Spell Quick]. [Concentration + 10]."
"Moving and casting spells [mastery]: wizards can move and cast spells under special training, and they will not interrupt their casting process when they move and dodge. At the same time, with the improvement of the specialty level, wizards can fly and move at high speed at the same time. Casting spells. This is one of the abilities that high-level wizards must master, otherwise spellcasting will fail when using the flying spell. [Concentration +5]”
"Spell control [mastery]: Wizards can control the spells they cast through their minds, strengthen the energy of the spells, or weaken the effects of the spells. Some summoning spells need to be controlled to produce powerful effects. This specialty is [Spell The pre-feats of [Strength] and [Extreme Spell Effect] can only further increase the magic power after mastering the control of spells."
"Bowen strong memorization [Talent]: Wizards often have amazing memory ability, this talent specialty can further increase their memory ability, and at the same time strengthen their understanding of various knowledge, gradually reaching the field of analogy. This talent specialty can Strengthen their training effects on other specialties, and if they master the specialty of [Photographic Memory] at the same time, they can further increase the speed of mastering. [Knowledge +10]."
It may be because of the personal specialty [photographic memory], this time there is actually an extra talent specialty [Bo Wen Qiang Ji] option.
Sauron couldn't help but fell into deep thought as he looked at the expertise he could obtain.
First of all, [Spell Control] is a specialty that can be given up, because he has already obtained the comprehension information, and if there is no accident, he should be able to master it quickly. Then there is the specialty of [Combat Casting], this specialty is a very powerful ability, because it is impossible for wizards to cast spells at a distance all the time, if they are attacked while casting a spell, the possibility of the spell being interrupted is very high, but with this specialty It will not be interrupted, and it can also passively increase its basic skill concentration by 10 points.
Then there is the specialty of [Moving and Casting], as the name suggests, it strengthens the ability to cast spells while moving. When casting a spell, it may be interrupted by an attack, and it may also fail to cast a spell while moving, especially after the wizard has learned high-speed moving spells and higher After the first-order flight, if you don't have this feat, the chance of failing to cast spells is as high as 50%.
Both are important specialties.
However, Sauron is obviously a little undecided in his heart, because he is more inclined to the talent specialty of [Bo Wen Qiang Ji].
First of all, it can increase knowledge, and secondly, it can further strengthen memory and comprehension ability. The extra 10 points of knowledge are also very helpful for mastering spells, and more importantly, it is a natural specialty. This kind of specialty cannot be mastered through training, and Sauron also knows that after possessing this kind of specialty, with the improvement of knowledge points, he can comprehend an additional special specialty.
"Erudite [Background Specialty]: Your knowledge has become more and more amazing, and you understand almost any field. With the accumulation of more knowledge, you will be able to comprehend most things by analogy. What you learn The speed is several times that of others. This is not limited to knowledge, but also a variety of combat techniques. You know how to calculate the weight axis of the weapon and use it to maximize its power. But you know It’s not just these, the accumulation of knowledge has reached your current level, and it can be directly transformed into real power! [Knowledge +10]” (Precondition: Possess the [Bo Wen Qiang Ji] specialty, 250 points of knowledge.)
…
(Concentration [Basic Skill]: Your concentration ability can be used in many ways, such as the success rate of casting spells, the speed of entering the meditation state, the effect of meditation, the probability of copying scrolls, the success rate of making staffs and extraordinary items, etc. Etc. Often a focused person will always gain more insight when he concentrates on something, even if he is learning combat skills.) [PS: Concentration skills also have a bonus effect on fighters' usual skill training.]
