Chapter 42: The Magical Foundations of Science

Frankly, Ogu has never seen a crystallization of this type like Charles.

Although Charles was indeed able to use the Iron Element, he had seen several instances of the Iron Elemental talent, and the crystallization was not of this color.

Taking the crystallization of the Steel Bone Demon Ape as an example, the crystals of the steel element are all silvery-white.

Ogu thought for a long time about how to teach Charles, and he inquired about Charles's life.

The Griffin family only has Joseph, the former commander of the alien barracks, who is the chosen one, but Joseph led his troops deep into the occupied area before Charles was born, and Charles is basically a blank slate, which can be said to be the lowest starting point among his several disciples.

But according to the news sent in the past two days, this kid made a big fuss in the Blue Lion Mansion the night before yesterday, and the combat power he showed was at least at the level of an eighth-level warrior.

It's a lot better than I expected...

Thinking of this, Agu couldn't help but nodded, reached out and brought in a chair, and motioned for Charles to sit down:

"Charles, how much do you know about the Chosen One?"

"I only know that the Chosen One is divided into mages and martial artists, and the others are vague. Charles thought about it, he didn't really know much about the French warriors or something.

"Okay, I'm in the military, and I don't have much time, so let's start our first lesson today. ”

Ogu acted decisively, took out a pen and paper from the desk and handed it to Charles, starting with the basics.

In fact, there are not only two choices of mages and warriors in the world.

In other countries, there are alternative paths such as beast masters and puppeteers, but the Orton Empire is located in the western part of the human territory, and with more than ten years of siege by beast tides, no one has seen these foreign powerhouses for too long.

Rare is precious, the probability of the birth of a mage is extremely low, and it is not easy to cultivate, every mage who successfully breaks through to the mage realm is the most precious talent in the empire.

The path of the mage is divided into mages, mages, lords, and legendary spirits.

Each realm is divided into nine rings according to the mastery of the elements.

In the realm of Dharma disciples, one to four rings can condense and move elements.

The five rings are a threshold for many elemental talent mages, and only above the five rings can the shape of an object be changed.

When a disciple's control of the elements reaches a certain level, and he can increase the temperature of the elements themselves, it is an important sign of entering the realm of mages.

"Raise the temperature?"

When Charles heard this, he realized that the magic in this world seemed to be different from what he imagined: "What about the fire element? Wasn't the fire element talent a high temperature from the beginning?"

Ogu shook his head and sighed, this apprentice's ignorance was beyond his imagination:

"What fire element, when using high-temperature magic, most spells can produce flames, there is no fire element in this world, because fire is just a manifestation of elemental power. ”

"What?" Charles didn't think about this possibility at all, although he also knew in his previous life that fire was a chemical reaction, but he always felt that this was another world, what about gold, wood, water, fire and earth?

Wait, if there is no fire element, then...

"Teacher, are there any light elements, thunder elements, and dark elements in the world?"

"Where did you hear this nonsense!"

Ogu blew his beard angrily, raised his hand and condensed a powdery steel element on his fingertips, only to see a dazzling spark suddenly illuminate the entire hall: "Light is light, when it is ignited, there is light, and without light it is darkness, as for thunder and lightning, it is the product of high-level water and air magic." ”

The more Charles listened, the brighter his eyes became, this world is so scientific!

Seeing that Charles no longer interjected to ask questions, Ogu continued to lecture on the division of the realm of the priests.

In the first to fourth rings, the mage can increase the temperature of the element, and the fifth ring is also a hurdle, and the mage must learn to deprive the elemental of its temperature, that is, to use freezing magic.

"Oh, so Fiona uses air magic, and she lowers the temperature of the air so she can freeze people!"

Charles stood up excitedly, what kind of magic Fiona used had been bothering him, and he immediately understood what Ogu said.

Ogu glanced at Charles in surprise, this kid's ability to draw inferences is indeed rare:

"That's right, qi magic is called wind by people who don't know the truth, in fact, just like metal magic is divided into steel, bronze, silver, etc., there are many kinds of qi system, Fiona's talent is one of the most domineering elements in the qi system: life qi!"

"What's that?"

"Life Qi, as the name suggests, is the life of life, as long as a person can't breathe life Qi, he will soon die. And the fire spell you just mentioned, as long as there is no support of life qi, no matter how high the temperature is, it will not be able to form flames. ”

Ogu stood up, took a book from the shelf and handed it to Charles.

"Research and Application of Gas Elements?" Charles took the book and flipped through a few pages.

There are no more than two or three kinds of qi talents in this world, life qi, depraved qi and extinguished qi, according to the description of these three gases in the book, Charles quickly understood.

The so-called life qi is actually oxygen.

Inert gas is nitrogen.

And the extinguishing of gas, of course, is carbon dioxide.

"So Fiona's fire magic is what she did by heating up the temperature of her life qi and igniting something else!?"

Ogu was surprised that although many mages could see through this technique later, he could understand the ins and outs of magic only after Fiona cast a spell once.

Is this really a person who has never been exposed to magic?

Magic is a very deep science, and the more mages learn from the experience of their predecessors, the more they feel extremely awe of the depth and obscurity of this world.

Thinking of this, Ogu patted Charles on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Very good, you seem to have a natural intuition for the application of the elements, and this intuition is rare. ”

"Hey, hey..."Charles scratched his head a little embarrassedly, thinking to himself, thanks to the good foundation of the nine-year compulsory education.

When the mage learns the temperature application of the elements, the power of the spell will increase exponentially, but many mages stop here in their lifetime, and the lord realm is not something that can be set foot on by skillful use of spells.

The lord realm has very high requirements for the strength of the mage's spiritual power, and the reason why the lord is called a lord is because wherever the field goes, it is his domain.

In the case of Ogu himself, in his realm, all the steel elements are only at his command, and the other steel elemental talents, in this realm, will lose their resonance with the steel element.

In addition, the powerhouse of the realm has the ability to create something out of nothing, as long as there is an element in this realm, he can summon countless elements in a very short time.

"Okay, you have roughly understood the path of the mage's cultivation, then let's take a look at the martial artist next..."

After Ogu finished speaking, he cleared his throat and was about to continue, but Charles interjected and asked, "Teacher, don't I learn magic, and martial artists also need to understand?"

"It's not just about understanding. ”

Ogu seemed to have known that he would ask:

"You have to start training from the side of a martial artist, and it is best to upgrade to the general level first, and then start systematic magic learning. ”
