Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 35: Link's 'Glass Bead'

Views:

Magic is a very rigorous knowledge, and what can be written in a book is the accurate knowledge that has been verified countless times by the ancestors.

how so

The reason is very simple, because any mistake may lead to a magical accident, or even a disaster. This is a terrible thing, and those unscrupulous magicians have already died in accidents.

Link temporarily put aside his thoughts on modifying the magic structure, and began to study the magic books carefully, absorbing the wisdom of his ancestors.

After reading it, Link was fascinated, and he even put aside the matter of the thesis.

In the space pendant, there are 63 magic books, all of which are basic books.

The knowledge introduced in such books is recognized by all magicians and has been verified thousands of times to be correct. Although it is superficial, it contains the wisdom of countless sages, and a lot of knowledge even contains the lives of sages!

Link looked at it carefully, and his superhuman memory remembered the content in his heart, and the high IQ obtained by his rebirth also easily understood the logic.

He is a real sleepless nightscraper!

Two weeks later, Link, who only ate three rough breads a day, lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets were sunken, and he was really thin, but his black eyes became more quiet and deep, just like Like a lake full of wisdom.

In the past two weeks, Ailette has sent two letters, telling Link about his progress in the academy. His talent is really powerful. He has already mastered a level 0 magic and got a level 5 magic named Moira. Appreciated by her mentor, she became her apprentice.

Link looked at it straight and complained: "Moira, it's a woman's name at first glance. Having a handsome face is taking advantage!"

But Ailette did well in the academy, which is a good thing.

Link told Ellette some anecdotes he saw in River Valley Town, the words were very joyful, and he didn't mention his own predicament at all. At the same time, he also sent some magical questions that he thought of to Ellette, hoping that he could help him answer them.

Of course Link didn't expect Ailette to help him, but didn't this kid have a mentor who took care of him.

After Elette received the letter at the college, his guilt and anxiety were greatly relieved. When he stayed at the college, he often thought of Link outside the college and worried about his pain and suffering while waiting. But now it seems that the other party is doing well. , which made him very happy.

As for Link's magic problem, he didn't quite understand it, but as long as he could help Link, he would never refuse. In fact, he was very pleased to be able to help Link.

He took the question and asked his mentor Moira.

Moira really took good care of him and answered questions for Ailette without reservation. In the process, Ailette himself benefited a lot.

He then sent Link the answer to the question.

This is equivalent to Link also having a level 5 magician as his mentor. This kind of communication is also a major reason why Link can finish 63 basic books in two weeks

Gently flipping through the last page of the last basic magic book "The Way of the Magician", it says the author of this book, a peerless genius three hundred years ago, and the only legendary magician in the history of the human race, Bryant. Message.

"Latecomers, we talk through text through time. Remember my words, magic can give you everything, including eternal life. Keep walking along the road of magic, go on, maybe we can meet each other one day .”

This sentence seems to imply mystery, but Bryant was a character three hundred years ago. He had already passed away. At that time, the nobles of the entire Norton Kingdom participated in his funeral. There are very clear and accurate records in history. It shouldn't be possible to fake it.

Link only regarded these words as the ravings of a dead wise man, and didn't take them to heart.

Gently closing "The Way of the Magician", it means that he has read all the basic magic books.

Not only read it, but also remember, understand and digest it all.

At this time, Link is no longer a magic blind, nor is he a scumbag from Fleming's low-level magic academy. He has already laid a very solid foundation on the road of magic.

At this time, Link went back to thinking about modifying the magic structure of the fire bomb technique, and he had a lot of clear ideas in his mind.

He took out the crescent wand, closed his eyes and meditated first, and soon, all the inspirations generated during the two weeks of focused study emerged in his mind.

These inspirations gathered together and merged with the magic structure of the fire bomb technique, just like a raging fire meeting boiling oil, there was an immediate and violent reaction.

Five minutes later, in Link's powerful visual imagination, a brand new magical structure was born in his mind.

Then Link opened his eyes.

For a moment, a gleam of brilliance flashed across those black eyes that had become extremely dim due to the weakness of magic. He stretched out the crescent wand, and the magic energy poured in, and the runes on the wand lit up one by one. Finally, the tip of the wand The crescent moon also shone brightly.

In the air in front of the new moon, a light spot was born. If you look carefully, you can see that the fire element in the light spot is rotating at a high speed. This is not an ordinary rotation mode, but an internal rotation, somewhat like a vortex structure.

It seems that there is a black hole in the center of the light spot, constantly attracting and devouring the fire element, and the fire element has to rotate to keep the entire structure stable.

A second later, the light spot expanded to the size of a glass bead, which is the usual size of a fireball technique.

But the difference is that the color of the fireball that Link sent out in the past was incandescent, and there were more heat waves around the fireball, and the light emitted was misty, but the center of the fireball in front of him was faintly blue , The surface of the fire bomb is extremely smooth, without any heat overflowing, it looks like a real glass bead.

The magic has been done!

The window of the attic was open, and the sun was shining outside. Link's heart moved, and he saw an oak tree 50 meters away. He pointed the wand in his hand towards the trunk of the oak tree, and the fireball from the tip of the wand flew out.

"Bang~" There was a loud explosion, and the fire bomb successfully flew a distance of 50 meters and hit the tree trunk. Wood chips flew on the tree trunk, and a pothole the size of a teacup appeared.

You must know that the ordinary version of the fireball has a range of no more than 30 meters. Even with the blessing of a magic wand, the power is just a large firecracker, which can only blow up the bark of the oak tree.

Link's fire bomb, both in terms of range and power, greatly surpassed the normal version of the fire bomb.

"The maximum range can reach about 60 meters. At the center of the fireball explosion, the power should be comparable to the ordinary version of the first-level fireball technique. If you use the fire spar staff, it may be more than that. The mana consumption is actually less. I only need a little mana, and my current mana can release 24 in a row. The only downside is that the casting time has increased too much."

The normal version of the fire bomb, Link with the game system, has a limit casting speed of 0.05 seconds, which is almost instant. But now this improved version of the fire bomb has a much more complicated magic structure and is not stable, requiring Link to spend more effort to maintain it. It took him a full 8 seconds to cast the spell for the first time.

"However, practice makes perfect. I will practice more and see how far I can go."

As soon as he said it, Link immediately started to practice, just like the ordinary fireball technique before, constantly condensing and retracting the improved version of the fireball at the tip of the wand.

He is very focused.

This exercise took half a day, and the effect was outstanding.

Half a day later, when Link moved his wand forward a little, a light blue glass-like fireball exuding dim light appeared immediately on the tip of the wand. When the wand was lifted, the fireball disappeared. A little more, the fireball appeared again. , gone again.

The speed is unimaginably fast, and it doesn't seem to be slower than the ordinary version of fireball.

But Link knew that it was actually slow, although the slowness was very limited.

"The normal version is 0.05 seconds, so the limit of this improved version is about 0.07 seconds."

The more complex the magic structure is, the longer it will take to build the magic structure, and the casting time will also be extended accordingly. This is a simple truth.

However, the casting time of a spell is only 0.07 seconds, the power concentration is comparable to a level 1 magic (the scale is incomparable), the range reaches 60 meters, and the energy consumption only needs 1 point of fire bomb. It is really a very terrifying magic.

"There should be some room for improvement in casting speed, I'll practice again."

Any increase in the casting speed, even if it is only a millisecond, will greatly increase the combat effectiveness. Therefore, Link has extremely strict requirements on himself regarding the casting speed.

He continues to practice.

More than three hours later, when the improved version of the fire bomb had been practiced so well that it could not be more proficient, and had reached the limit, Link found that there was a message flashing in the field of vision.

After checking it, it turned out to be a notice from the game system.

'The player has successfully improved the 0-level fire bomb technique, please name the magic. '

Link smiled, and he still had the right to name it. He became interested, and recalled improving the glass-like solid texture of the fire bomb, and said, "Let's call it 'Glass Beads', Link's glass beads, haha."

'The magic has been named 'Glass Ball''

'The player successfully masters a level 0 super magic skill and gets 1 free point. '

"Ha, it's really good to be rewarded with free points." Link became more motivated.

He now has 106 free points, because of the magic weakening effect, even if all these points are added to the upper limit of mana, in these three months, he can only get 106 points, and it will take three months to get the upper limit. Unlock, and he doesn't need much mana right now, so these free points are reserved for spare.

Each point is equivalent to one of his hole cards. With so many points, he feels very at ease.

After reading the magic book and successfully improving the fireball technique, Link's mind finally returned to his thesis.

This time, because he got a lot of inspiration from the magic book, when he started to deduce the law of universal gravitation again, he made rapid progress. Of course, with the deepening of the deduction process, this law has already changed beyond recognition.

What he will get in the end, even Link himself doesn't know.

But this time, Link's deduction process stopped quickly, not because he was out of inspiration, but because he ran out of parchment, and there was not much ink left, so he had to buy new ones.

Touching the wallet in his pocket, Link was suddenly embarrassed. There was not much money left, only three silver coins left.

"I have to make some money."

This time his pockets are really going to be clean, if he doesn't earn some pocket money, he's really going to beg on the street.
