As summer turns to autumn, fallen leaves roll in the wind and float into the campus playground.
Next to the playground, there is a dense green shade, and the afternoon sun shines through the gaps in the leaves and turns into wisps, like a special post-autumn stage.
For Mo Fan, time flies by very quickly. Two months have passed since his awakening.
In the past two months, the only thing Mo Fan has done is sit under this tree - meditate!
In the first class on the first day, class teacher Xue Musheng taught all the magic students an important lesson: the release of magic!
There are only three very simple steps to release magic.
First, meditate.
Second, control.
Third, release!
Meditation, as the name suggests, means concentrating on thinking.
When people close their eyes, their minds are actually constantly imagining various pictures.
But if you don’t think about anything and are not disturbed, your mind will be empty!
After the magician awakens, stardust of the corresponding system will appear in his empty world.
In other words, as long as Mo Fan closes his eyes and doesn't think about anything at all and makes his mind as empty as a black universe, the thunder stardust and fire stardust will be in this empty mind. emerge in.
Thunder stardust is purple and looks like a piece of purple cosmic dust suspended there, which is beautiful, charming and colorful.
There are a total of seven stars in the thunder stardust. These stars are making irregular movements in the entire small piece of stardust, like seven naughty and disobedient children, running around energetically.
For any awakened magic student, as long as he can make stardust emerge from the void and see the lively and shining stars in the stardust, he has completed his meditation practice.
It can be said that this first step is really simple, and this is the only homework assigned to all magic students in the past two months.
Meditate, start meditating after dinner, meditate until you are exhausted, then go to bed.
The next day, after the daytime classes were over, I continued to meditate until I was exhausted and went to sleep...
Mo Fan was not lazy. He did this for two whole months, including weekends. He was also doing meditation. Many times he didn't understand why the teachers assigned everyone such a simple task. Two months.
"How about I try to control it myself first?" Mo Fan felt that he was already very proficient in meditation, so he wanted to start the next step.
The second step of magic release is also very simple.
After entering meditation, you will see star dust, and inside the star dust there are seven lively and energetic stars running around irregularly.
To control is to use your own mental thoughts to control these stars, make them quiet, and stop at specific positions to form a star track.
The star track is connected, and the power of magic will be transmitted from this star track to the magician's body, turned into real magic, and released!
"You run really fast, let daddy touch him." Mo Fan began to try to communicate with Xingzi.
Using his own thoughts to control Xingzi, Mo Fan had already locked onto a playful Xingzi and tried to make it stay there obediently.
"Whoosh~~~~~~"
That star was so cold and aloof that Mo Fan was like a little loli who encountered a strange creature and ran away as fast as he could!
"Damn, you are so arrogant, forget it, try another one." Mo Fan started to communicate with another thunder star.
"Little darling, daddy is here, come here quickly and be obedient..."
"Whoosh~~~~~"
The second star ran very fast as if he had encountered a fugitive from a mental hospital.
Mo Fan tried several other stars, but none of them took Mo Fan seriously. Some even felt that Mo Fan's mind was telling them to do something, and they ran faster!
When the star is spinning and flying, magic power cannot be transmitted.
It's like a wire. The electric energy is inside the stardust. If you want to release the electric energy, you must connect the stardust into a line and transfer it to the magician's body...
It's a pity that none of these thunder stars are obedient. It's okay if you don't touch them. Once you try to communicate with them, they run very fast. It's like eating five hundred pounds of dazzling speed, and you can't stop at all!
"How are we going to do this? How long will it take for me to learn the Thunder Seal skill?" Mo Fan felt a pain in his balls.
The primary skill of the Thunder system is - Thunder Seal.
This skill should be the most practical skill among all elementary magics. If you learn it and master it skillfully, you will basically have outstanding combat effectiveness.
Unfortunately, skills are not so easy to learn.
The activity of thunder star particles is quite high, and stopping them is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two.
"Now I can't even control one star. I have to control seven stars at the same time... the road is really not that long."
Sure enough, reading, like learning magic, cannot be completed in a day or two.
…
The weather is getting colder, and thick down jackets have replaced girls' short skirts and stockings. Before you know it, it's the season in the south where you'll freeze like a dog without heating.
"Ah Qiu~~~~~ Damn it, if I had known I would have played the fire concubine's card first, maybe this winter would have been easier." Mo Fan cursed as he was practicing control on the rooftop early in the morning.
After more than a month of practice, Mo Fan was able to control 4 stars.
This process of controlling stars... How should I put it, is a bit like a difficult version of dominoes.
In other words, you have to carefully put down the four domino cards in one breath so that they don't shake even a little, which counts as a small step.
Once a star domino card is not placed properly and the card falls, everything starts from scratch!
This is the case with stars. First, you have to lock on to a star and use your own thoughts to command it to stop. In the process of making the star stand still, you must concentrate on it. Even if the star's mental resistance causes your brain to hurt, you still have to grit your teeth. Stop, don't let your mind wander even a little bit.
Only by gritting his teeth and concentrating highly on giving orders and fighting against Xingzi can he make the somewhat irritable Thunder Xingzi obediently obey and hover there obediently.
After making one star obedient, another spirit must be separated to do the same thing to make the second hot-tempered star obedient and tightly controlled.
If you accidentally spend too much energy on the second star and do not continue to use your energy to suppress the first star, the star that was obedient just now will fly away immediately, taking away the second star that was just about to be obedient. All previous efforts were wasted.
I have heard teachers say before that this step of controlling Xingzi is very difficult. On the one hand, it is very difficult to control, and on the other hand, it requires magicians to have enough mental power to consume it.
Practice control like Mo Fan does every day. If you fail to control once, you will feel mentally exhausted. If you practice for up to two hours a day, you will be in a state of mental breakdown, with ringing in your ears, dizziness, and brain damage. It's a mess.
At this time, you can no longer meditate or control.
To put it bluntly, practicing "control" consumes mana. A tube of mana can take up to 2 hours.
