Reiner originally thought that the Explosive Flame Technique was just a slightly larger fireball, but he did not expect that the Explosive Flame Technique released from his hand had the destructive power to destroy a hill.
Even though this is Reiner's inner lake, the power of the spell will be a little off, but it's still too far off.
The only thing that can be compared with it is probably Lanchester's Eternal Blazing Sun engraved in the Hohenheim Gold Cup, but it is a fourth-ring spell, and purely in terms of power, it seems to be similar to this explosive fire spell.
Do I really have the potential to become a bombshell
"Wait a minute..."
Reiner suddenly realized a problem.
Previously, he believed that the utilization rate of magic power by spells was quite low. However, Reiner's improved fireball technique used Hydra, an element with very high burning efficiency, so its destructive power was much higher than that of standard spells. .
But now, after using the Hydra element as the basis of the second-level spell Explosion, the destructive power has been increased by more than a little bit. Although this phenomenon seems to be nothing to explore, Reiner noticed something strange in it.
"Could it be said that compared to first-level spells, second-level spells not only have some expansion in abilities, but also improve the efficiency of using magic power?"
This is easy to understand. Assuming that Reiner uses a fireball spell and consumes one unit of magic power, then if he wants to cast a more powerful Explosive Flame spell at the same utilization rate, he will naturally need to consume more units of magic power. .
But in fact, whether he uses fireball or explosive fire, Reiner consumes one unit of magic power.
In other words, the Explosive Flame Technique has a higher conversion and utilization rate of magic power.
It can be deduced from this that among similar spells, third-level spells should be more efficient than second-level spells, and fourth-level spells should be more efficient than third-level spells.
"Originally, I thought that the so-called ring number was just an index used to distinguish power, but now it seems that the ring number of a spell is actually an index used to distinguish efficiency!"
This is something that most magic books will not mention. It involves basic issues such as the definition of spells, and is of little help to pragmatic wizards.
"No wonder some seemingly simple spells have three and four rings, while some powerful and destructive spells only have two rings."
Reiner had some understanding that this was not an exploration of the world, but it could also help him learn and improve magic better in the future.
"Because of this, higher efficiency requires stronger computing power and control ability. If a low-level mage uses high-level spells forcibly, not only will the body be weak due to overdraft of magic power, but it will also be a load caused by overclocking of the brain. "
Since it was within his own heart, Reiner didn't care about expressing it and used his familiar method.
"If we use computers to describe it, spells are applications. High-level spells are programs that are more efficient to use. Low-level spells are more primitive, simple and inefficient programs. Using spells beyond the level to harm the soul is actually a certain process. In this sense, forcibly opening a large program without sufficient configuration can cause lags or even crashes!”
With this transformation, he felt suddenly enlightened.
"If you think about it this way, the utilization rate of those nine-ring spells for magic power is probably quite high."
Reiner recalled the high-level mage he saw in Ernest, who could easily cast spells that affected a wide range. In addition to the high-level mage's own abundant magic power, the more important thing was that the spells he mastered were more efficient.
"Wait a minute, so the suppression of low-level mages by high-level mages is also..."
Rank suppression will make it almost impossible for low-level mages to mobilize external magic power to cast spells. In the past, Reiner has always imagined it as a pattern of two vortexes, one large and one small. Now, he can add some assumptions on top of this.
"Does magic always flow spontaneously toward more efficient uses?"
On Earth, Reiner knew that there was a theory that light would always move in the shortest direction. If in this world, magic was a similar substance, then it would not be impossible to flow into more efficient magic. Something to accept.
"You can check out relevant books later."
Regarding magic power, Reiner has no references on earth, nor does he have many books that deal with the study of the nature of magic power, so his current conjecture may have been proposed by other mages, or even proved. If this is the case, he It settled a doubt.
After confirming the spell model of the new Explosive Flame spell in the Heart Lake, Reiner suddenly felt that it was possible that his three-ring spell in the future would also become a stronger fireball spell, and finally rely on a fireball spell to escape. All over the world.
"There is no problem that cannot be solved by one fireball. If there is, how about another one?"
Smiling dumbly, Reiner, who had completed today's task, brought his consciousness back to reality from the inner lake.
The hot summer night was still uncomfortable, and a bit of the summer wind blew in through the open window, making the parchment on Reiner's desk tremble slightly.
Everything seems to have never changed, but at this time, Reiner's heart lake is already engraved with the second-level spell Explosive Flame Technique. From a practical point of view, he is enough to be called a second-level mage.
You know, it has only been a week since he became a first-level mage. Even if you think about it further, based on the time when he engraved the first-level spell into the heart lake, it has only been two months.
In two months, he was promoted from the first ring to the second ring. This speed can be said to be very fast.
Now, as long as Reiner registers with the local magic association and takes a simple assessment, he can become an official second-level mage.
But he didn't intend to do so.
It's not that he wants to deliberately suppress his advancement speed to cover up anything. Reiner has obtained so much feedback from the world that it is reasonable to advance quickly and will not arouse any suspicion.
Reiner is just plain lazy.
Registering for an advanced level requires a trip to Toronto, and it is just a title. After becoming a higher-level mage, you will inevitably encounter more transactional troubles, and Reiner does not want these.
He felt that he might as well save it and wait until he was promoted to the intermediate level to take the exam. This would save time and avoid a lot of troubles in the process. I believe everyone in the Magic Association can understand.
With this decision made, Reiner put away the documents on the table, and suddenly felt that something was missing today.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized.
The tiger-striped kitten didn't come to check today!
In the past, whether it was writing a paper or inscribing a spell, the cat would suddenly appear, as if patrolling its territory, but today, it was nowhere to be seen.
"Did you oversleep, or was there something else?"
Reiner thought, he stood up and looked out the window.
Soon, he saw that under a tree downstairs, Fina was feeding the familiar kitten with dried meat, while carefully petting the kitten's head for fear of scaring the kitten.
"It turns out to be here."
Sure enough, is the cute girl more worthy of getting close to than myself
Reiner smiled as he thought about it. He didn't disturb the two of them. He sat back on the chair and glanced at the calendar on the wall.
The White Dew Moon is already halfway through, and there are only a few days left before Emilia's birthday.
The day when the third generation of peas will mature is tomorrow.
