The gang of syndicate thieves really hid their secrets. Three days passed, and Anderson still hadn't found those guys' lairs. There was no rush for this matter, and Link waited patiently.
As for Princess Anne, she was going to Hot Springs to report on her duties, and she had to leave reluctantly the next day. No one bothered her, and Link could finally study magic with peace of mind.
He no longer lives in the attic of the hotel, but lives in the yard bought by the flamingo mercenary team. He is taken care of here, and the food cooked by the chef hired at a high price is also very delicious, and no one bothers him to study. satisfy.
In three days, Link had already read three enchanted books.
He also has a fairly comprehensive understanding of magic. In the book "Introduction to Magic", the opening sentence introduces the essence of magic very concisely and clearly.
"The so-called enchantment is the process of fixing magic on an object!"
In theory, as long as the right method is found, all magic can be solidified, such as fireball, armor, wind blade, mysterious power, etc.
These methods and techniques of solidifying magic are the category of magic.
For example, the wand is actually the solidification of focused magic.
It is said that five hundred years ago, magicians did not use magic wands to cast spells. Their usual method of casting spells was to use focus magic to condense and compress their own magic energy, and then began to release the magic they wanted.
At that time, it was much more difficult to become a qualified magician than it is today.
After reading the three books, the first thing Link did was to write letters, and there were two letters.
One is to record all the doubts that I don't understand after thinking deeply these days, and then send it to Moira for answers. The other letter was written to Ailette. The two have similar interests and similar IQs. It is very interesting to chat. Link will write to Ailette if he has nothing to do. In the letter, he will discuss magical ideas , or exchange some anecdotes, chat happily.
While waiting for the reply, Link was not idle. Based on the various theories and practical knowledge in the book, he began to experiment with enchanting in his room.
The most commonly used metal in enchanting is Mithril, because Mithril has excellent magic conductivity, and by various means to form Mithril into various structures, it can store magic energy stably for a long time. By changing Mithril The structure of the magic energy can be changed at the same time, and finally achieve the purpose of casting spells.
Of course, there are many details that need to be paid attention to in practice, which is exactly the purpose of Link's experiment.
He doesn't have mithril on hand now, it doesn't matter, Link disassembled the crescent wand without hesitation. Although this wand was only of excellent quality, it used a lot of mithril. After dismantling the wand, Link got enough 500 grams of Mithril.
'What a waste. It is estimated that the cost of 1,000 gold coins is all on this mithril. This so-called master is only average. 'Link estimated that this was the original owner of the wand, Grant, bragging indiscriminately for the sake of face.
After getting Mithril, Link used the 20 free points on hand to buy a transformation magic that is necessary for magic: shaping.
shaping
Level 2 Magic
Energy consumption: 0.2 points per second
Function: After casting on an object, the object can change its physical shape arbitrarily according to the caster's mind.
(Note: One of the necessary spells for low-level enchantment)
After learning this magic, Link immediately used it on the Mithril placed on the table.
This magic does not need to be focused, just cast it with bare hands, the magic energy surges in the body, and a very special magic structure is arranged, and then, a strange force is attracted.
This power is almost transparent, and it exists on Link's palm. If its existence hadn't changed the refractive index of the air, Link wouldn't be able to see the existence of this power at all.
Link knew that this should be the so-called 'Higgs force field' in the transformation magic.
This force field was discovered by a magician named Higgs more than 600 years ago. It was he who created the transformation magic, and at the same time pulled magic from the high-end field that can only be used by advanced magicians to ordinary magicians. usable extent.
The property of the Higgs force field is quite peculiar, it can change the form of all non-living things, as long as you master the skills, it is not a problem to turn stones into gold or turn stones into water.
Of course, these skills are very, very difficult, and there is a bigger constraint, which is the huge consumption of mana.
The more you want to change the attributes of an object, the more mana you will consume, such as the alchemy technique, this magic is simply the ultimate means of making a fortune in the understanding of ordinary people.
But in fact, if you want to convert a fist-sized pebble into gold of the same quality, you have to consume all the mana of a level 6 magician, and it may not even be successful.
How precious is the mana of a magician? Who would eat up and spend all their mana for such a little gold? Therefore, there are basically no magicians to learn the magic of turning stone into gold.
There is always no free lunch in this world.
Back to business.
Link manipulated this transparent magical force field, wrapped it with a mithril block the size of a thumb on the table, and then began to imagine the magical structure of the glass beads in his mind.
Link, who has a powerful soul, has a very precise visual thinking ability. At this time, this ability has helped him a lot!
Sure enough, following his imagination, the mithril changed rapidly, from lumps to silk, from silk to a magic rune, and finally evolved into a three-dimensional magic energy structure.
About three minutes later, a very delicate mithril-like ball appeared on the table immediately. At first glance, this small ball has a delicate hollow structure, but if you look closely, you can find that it is actually the magic energy structure of glass beads .
Of course, because there is no magic energy input into the mithril thread, and there is no structure, it cannot cause the fire element to resonate. Its mithril ball is just a beautiful handicraft.
"Try to see if it works." Link picked up the mithril ball and poured magic energy into it.
This process is very worry-free. Link only needs to pour magic energy into it without thinking about the magic structure, because the mithril thread will automatically guide the magic energy into the magic structure of glass beads.
In an instant, the magic energy filled the entire mithril ball. Immediately afterwards, Link saw the mithril ball start to glow, turn blue, and finally become a light blue sphere emitting a dim light.
It's Link's magic: glass beads.
"Tsk tsk, this way of casting spells is really worry-free, but the cost is a bit high." Link sighed, throwing out a spell costs 1,000 gold coins, and no rich magician can afford it.
This glass bead with mithril as the core is the most basic magic equipment. As long as you are a magician and have 1 point of magic energy in your body, if you input this mithril ball, then he can use it grams of glass beads.
Of course, the cost of the entire magic equipment is too high, let alone a one-time use, the power is still pitifully small, and it can only be used for experiments.
"The basic structure of the wand is introduced in "Basic Enchanting". Let me try it."
Link found a stick of yellow wattle wood, and according to the magic structure introduced in the book, he used evocation magic to fuse the mithril threads into the stick tightly, and then did some artistic processing on the stick. The wand is made successfully.
Link observed the rough wooden stick wrapped with mithril thread in his hand, and information was displayed in his vision.
After a glance, the above information is.
Junior Wand (untitled)
poor quality
Effect: Magic power +5%.
Well, it really is bad enough, it only took Link less than half an hour before and after this thing.
Trying to cast spells with this wand, it feels pretty good in the hand.
"Haha, it's really interesting." Link couldn't help laughing.
After two consecutive successes, Link became very interested in enchanting. He remembered that there was a chapter in Basic Enchanting, one of which introduced the drawing of magic scrolls.
The magic scroll is to write the magic structure in a flat state on the anti-magic paper with special magic-guiding ink. The advantage of this is that it is very portable and the cost is extremely low. text, even ordinary people can use it.
Link wanted to draw a magic scroll, but he didn't have the materials at hand, but it didn't matter, just use local materials.
What if there is no wizard ink
It's okay, the most primitive guiding ink is the blood of magical creatures.
A magician is a magical creature, so the blood of a magician can be used as guiding ink. The more powerful the magician's blood is, the easier it is to use.
Link put a few milliliters of blood on himself to make magic ink.
What about paper? Parchment is the most basic anti-magic paper.
After everything was ready, Link dipped his blood with a quill pen and drew the flat magic structure of the basic fireball technique on the parchment.
Link's precise visual thinking helped him again. At this time, as if with divine help, he drew the magic structure of the fire bomb on the parchment with one stroke, added a trigger rune at the end, and then entered it into it. Mana.
Immediately, the red blood on the parchment showed the brilliance of magic, but because of the restriction of the trigger rune, this scroll did not attract the fire element and turned into a fire bomb.
Link immediately tested the effect.
According to the trigger method of the scroll, he erased the trigger rune from the parchment, and then threw the scroll far away.
'Huh' in mid-air, the scroll began to attract the fire element, then began to burn, and finally turned into a ball of flames, because the material of the scroll is too rough, and the magic structure on it is also very simple, so this fire bomb technique does not Explosive, but ultimately successful.
"Tsk tsk, it's amazing!" Link's interest was completely aroused.
At this time, the reply letter from the School of Magic also arrived. After reading Ellette's reply letter, Link opened Verola's reply, which clearly answered his magic question. At the same time, it also included three new magic books, They are "The Making of the Wand", "The Subtle Techniques of Enchanting Magic", and "The Magical Use of the Higgs Force Field".
Well, upon seeing the titles of these books, Link felt like a treasure. After skimming through "The Making of a Magic Wand", he immediately decided that he would make himself a magic wand of his own!
