Looking back at Crescent College, Reiner was not idle while waiting for the second round of planting peas to mature.
At night, in Reiner's room, he was sitting on a chair. Spread out on the table in front of him was a parchment recording a spell model.
This spell model is obviously more complicated than the standard one-ring spell fireball. Both the number of magic nodes and the tracks of magic flow are much more. At first glance, it is intricate and intertwined with lines, making it difficult to distinguish. If you let From Claire's perspective, I'm afraid she would raise her hands and surrender after only ten seconds.
But that was Lehner's goal tonight.
A standard second-level spell, explosive fire.
Unlike the modified third-level spell, Pluto's Explosive Flame Technique, this basic Explosive Flame Technique only requires a second-level level to master. Its destructive power is much higher than that of the first-level Fireball Technique, making it more suitable for engraving a person. A mage who chooses defensive spells when casting spells.
Reiner chose this spell for several reasons.
Originally, he wanted to learn a defensive spell to protect himself first, but soon, Reiner learned that the defensive spells at the low-level mage stage are basically just slightly more powerful armors. As long as he can advance to the intermediate level, then just a A spell barrier that can be used at any time is enough to despise all low-level defensive spells. Therefore, based on the idea of economy, Reiner decided not to waste precious space on inscribed spells for low-level defensive spells that would definitely be replaced in the future.
Similarly, the fourth-level disembodiment can move at high speed within a designated area. As a displacement spell, it has also become Reiner's future choice. Therefore, low-level similar spells are naturally not within the scope of consideration.
After these considerations, Reiner originally planned to inscribe some spells with other attributes, but he later decided to challenge another path under the guidance of President Demetri.
That's overwriting.
As we all know, the mage's advancement relies on the corresponding level of magic inscribed in the heart lake. Once inscribed, it cannot be removed and replaced. This spell will remain in the heart lake permanently. The mage does not need any preparation when using it and can release it instantly. .
But there are exceptions.
Just like the second-level spell Explosive Flame is actually an upgraded version of the first-level spell Fireball. Its spell model is modified on the basis of Fireball, and the effects are very similar. The only difference is in power. In this way spell, you can use overwrite.
A simple understanding is that Reiner upgraded the fireball technique in his heart lake to the explosive flame technique. In this way, he will not lose the space for inscribing spells in the heart lake, but also gain a second-level spell. It can be regarded as a sure-profit deal. .
Having said that, most mages will not take such a seemingly "advantageous" approach when advancing. The reason is that it is too difficult.
In addition to having an extremely deep understanding of the two spells, overwriting also requires an extremely precise grasp of the spell model, the control of magic power, and a huge amount of magic power to maintain this delicate process.
To put it simply, a mage who can reach the level required for overwriting has already advanced by ordinary means and does not need to go to such trouble to save space.
The spells that can be engraved in the Heart Lake vary from person to person, but the overall number is between twenty and fifty, which is enough to deal with most situations. Therefore, unless you are a mage who strives for excellence, there is no need to pursue overwriting. .
But this is not a problem for Reiner.
After receiving feedback from the world several times, his disposable magic power reserves have far exceeded that of ordinary mages of the same level. This can be seen from Reiner's fireball technique. Although he uses the Hydra element ability Achieving extremely high burning efficiency, but Reiner's own magic reserves are also one of the reasons why this spell is so powerful in his hands.
Reiner is also far superior to his peers in constructing spell models. In fact, although the spell model of Explosion is complex, it is nothing more than lines on a plane, and Reiner can easily master and improve it.
Generally speaking, after the first level of advancement, mages need at least a year to slowly adapt to their own changes, allowing the magic power to penetrate and transform the body before they can continue to break through. This is the most stable.
But if the overwriting method is used to advance, the adaptation process can be shortened to a few months. Coupled with the magic of Hohenheim Gold Cup transformation, Reiner has met the requirements for promotion to the second ring at this time, and he immediately decided Try to break through.
If the experiment is successful, Reiner will definitely go to Berger City again and visit the Albiore family. He is not sure whether his identity and the Hohenheim Gold Cup can still deter the Albiore family, so he improves himself in time. Very urgent.
Of course, as President Dmitry said, the feedback from the world that Reiner receives takes effect gradually, and as he grows, he gradually assists Reiner in his advancement. Without this feedback, Reiner would not have enough magic power and theoretical knowledge at this time. , it is also quite difficult to quickly advance to the second ring.
Closing his eyes, Reiner dived into his inner lake.
The weather here is calm, the sun is bright, the waves are sparkling, and it's a peaceful and beautiful scene.
With a gentle wave of the hand, the sun and the moon rotated. The sun immediately set in the west, and the bright moon rose. At the same time, the bright starry sky appeared all over the sky.
Several stars light up, and it can be seen that this is the magic node of the fireball spell that has been engraved in the heart lake.
Floating on the lake, Reiner sank his heart, and from his palms, more stars flew out and rushed into the night.
These starlights traced bright trajectories, intersecting with the already lit stars. Soon, the starlight disappeared in the sky, leaving only two nodes of the spell model flickering.
It can be seen that the trajectory of the fireball continues to extend, connecting the numerous starlights. Gradually, the two spell models merge into one, shining brightly in the obsidian night.
Reiner felt the two spells. He was constantly calculating in his mind and tried his best to upgrade the fireball spell to the explosive fire spell.
Buzz —
In just an instant, flames bloomed from the stars, following the dazzling magic trajectory, and ignited the entire sky in an instant.
The deep and dark night suddenly seemed like daylight, shining brightly.
A ball of blue flame ignited in the palm of Reiner's hand. The pure ice-like blue color spread rapidly. From a fireball the size of a fist, it instantly expanded into a huge flame ball with a diameter of more than ten yards.
But soon, the expanding flame immediately shrank and turned into an egg-sized ball of light in Reiner's palm.
After understanding, Reiner threw it out, and the light ball flew at high speed and hit the rock wall in front.
First, a bit of light sank into the rock wall, and then, countless rays of light exploded from the contact point. The next moment, the scorching wind began to sweep across. On the surface of the rock wall, the bright light was like flowing liquid, under the huge impact force. It was swaying in the middle, and the explosion didn't break out of the sky until this moment.
Buzz —
In Reiner's field of vision, the towering rock walls were turned into powder bit by bit. Then, when he heard the roar, the crushing force completely destroyed the rock. The smoke filled the air, and the throat was hoarse with dry and hot air. The air roared.
It was like being hit by a meteorite from outside, with the anxious wind and turbulent flow.
Reiner waved his hand, and a cool breeze blew away, blowing away the smoke and dust that blocked his vision. Only then did he see the rock wall that had been hit by the Explosive Flame Technique.
To be precise, what was once a rock wall.
The entire rock was cut away smoothly and flatly, like a spoonful of ice cream. No collapse or fragments could be seen. Everything that was hit had vaporized into smoke and dust, and exploded. At the edge, you can see that the brown soil has turned into shiny quartz, which is enough to see the high temperature.
"Is this the Explosive Flame Technique?"
Reiner looked at his palm. The effect of this spell seemed to be a little different from what he imagined
