Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 63: Learn the magic circle

Views:

After several days of tireless practice by Ryan, he completed a large number of works, but these works all seemed to have a very obvious problem, and that was the size. The smallest piece of work was about the same size as Oz's shield. It was engraved with magic spells by Ryan, but it had almost no effect.

Faras finally saw that there was one thing that Ryan was not very good at. At least her teacher was far better than Ryan in the magic circle. She teased Ryan and said: "It seems that only warriors can be your customers. Is it possible that in the future? Do you have to carry these door panels when you go out?"

Farasi's words made everyone burst into laughter. Not to mention the effect of Ryan's work, the size alone is completely meaningless. In fact, it’s not that there are no such large finished products, they are usually giant trebuchets and heavy ballistae that are only used by the army. Of course, there are also some large chambers of commerce in Seawind City that will carve some magic arrays on the sides of their merchant frigates. To strengthen defense, most people use a small ornament, a magic wand, or a magic circle embroidered on their clothes.

Even so, Ryan was very excited. No matter how bad the effect was, it was still carefully made by himself, so he didn't take Farasi's ridicule to heart. What's more, Ryan feels that he has mastered the preliminary knowledge. As long as he practices more, he can gradually increase his level. When I was learning magic from Mr. Delanai, the first fireball spell couldn't even light a bonfire! Who dares to let Ryan use fireball to light a fire now? It won’t be a problem to demolish the house.

However, Ryan also very much hoped to make a practical work. He specially borrowed Farasi's magic wand to study it carefully. However, Ryan became more and more confused as he looked at it. There is a huge difference between the explanations of Master Victor's magic circle and Vladimir's magic circle. Ryan imitated Master Victor's finished product and sculpted it, resulting in a completely useless waste product.

Ryan was very surprised by this. It stands to reason that Victor's strength is higher than Vladimir's. Why is it completely wrong for him to imitate his finished product? In order to solve this problem, Ryan went to the city to find President Vladimir.

President Vladimir couldn't help laughing after hearing what Ryan said. "Ryan, I agree with your desire for knowledge, but your method is a little wrong."

Ryan asked: "What should we do?"

Vladimir smiled and said: "Let me take magic spells as an example. The Magic Guild once calculated that among the magic that magicians like to use the most on the mainland, fireball dominates the first place with an absolute advantage. This fireball, Every magician will learn its original spell when participating in the study. This spell has a total of 50 syllables and contains 7 gestures. According to the normal casting speed of 10 syllables per second, it will take 5 seconds to cast. .”

Ryan nodded secretly in his mind. It turns out that there is such a thing as his favorite magic investigation. Teacher Delanai never told him about it. However, I have learned these fifty syllables before, but after more than a year of practice, I have already reduced them to less than 18.

Vladimir didn't know what Ryan was thinking. He continued: "However, after every magician learns, he will make small modifications according to his own characteristics or needs, such as changing the numbers 23 to 35. Deleting syllables can increase the casting speed of fireball by about 20%, but the power of fireball is reduced by nearly half; some magicians will add a spell of up to 83 syllables after the fortieth syllable. , more than three times the power of the fireball! This is the large fireball cast by the little girl that day. Although this will increase the casting speed of the fireball to at least 12 seconds, and the flying speed will also be greatly reduced, but this magic It has a wide range of applications, especially in city defense battles. It is a very terrifying existence for the attacking party, so it has a new magic level and name called Pyroblast."

Having said this, Vladimir sighed and said: "The same is true for magic arrays. I have drawn all the basic magic array patterns in detail in my experience. I am not asking you to follow them. This is just to tell you. , what is the principle of this magic circle, and why does it have to be drawn like this to be effective. But in actual application, it cannot be done like this at all."

When Ryan heard that Vladimir had hit the point, he quickly pricked up his ears and listened carefully, lest he miss a word.

Vladimir explained: "Every magic circle has its scope of application, its effect, and of course some side effects. The reason why Master Victor is called the master is that he cleverly combines several magic circle Combined, the effect of the first magic circle is amplified by the second magic circle, and the side effects of the first magic circle are exactly offset by the third magic circle. It's the master's handiwork. So you I saw five magic circles on that magic wand, but that’s not entirely correct. There are at least 200 magic circles on it!”

Ryan was shocked when he heard this. How could there be so many

Vladimir said: "The magic circles I carved are just one. Although there can be several magic circles that can enhance each other, there will also be a small amount to offset the side effects I just mentioned. But the works of Master Victor are not In this way, he perfectly combined the two most basic magic arrays to form a new magic array. This magic array interacts with other magic arrays to form a new magic array. Each of these five magic arrays Each will be combined with other magic arrays to form a new magic array, and each new magic array will be combined with other magic arrays to create a new magic array... In this way, he only used the five most basic magic arrays. Array pattern, but more than 200 magic arrays were formed on that magic wand. This is why I am so obsessed with that magic wand. I only thought of this in the past few days. Of course, I am still wondering why. How can such a simple magic array produce several times the amplification effect after being replaced with a level 7 fire magic core?"

Vladimir's words opened up a new world in Ryan's heart. It turned out that what he had learned in the past half month was not even basic. This aroused Ryan's competitive spirit. Master Victor could do it. So why can't I

Vladimir said: "Only a genius like Master Victor can come up with such an ingenious method. No wonder he can make the complicated and huge teleportation magic circle engraved on the magic scroll."

Ryan asked: "Teleportation magic circle?"
