"What skills do you want?" said Giarnold, smiling as he touched his beard and stepped up to the edge of the bridge.

"What skills do you have?"

"I have a variety of attack skills and defensive passive skills, and there are some more advanced ones, I'm afraid you won't be able to learn them for the time being, after all, you have to start from the basics first. ”

"Hmm...... Tell me what good attack skills you have?"

Janold smiled, turned his back, stretched out his hand, and with a slight wave of his hand, a red flame appeared on the palm of his hand. It was daytime, and the flames had not yet been noticed by many people, so no one gathered around to look at them. After James learned the identity of the old man, Giarnold told him to go back and prepare first, and then come back tomorrow morning to study. James had no objection to this, so he obediently returned to the hotel.

Just as he was about to lie down and sleep, a strange thought came to his heart - whether he could add the power of magic to his body and multiply his physical fitness. If this is the case, then one's competitiveness will also be greatly improved, and the most serious problems of the mages will be overcome. He tried to funnel his magical powers into his arm, but to no avail. He tried several times, but had to give up.

"Create a small fireball, create a Xiaoice ball, create a small lightning bolt......" The fireball on the palm of Garnold's hand turned into an ice ball and then into a crackling bolt of lightning.

"Thunder and lightning ......" James thought of Grisenda as soon as he saw this blue current, and he couldn't help but be furious. "Ice hockey, what's the lethality of this thing?"

"You can freeze people to the point where they can't move......

"Forget it, ice hockey isn't fun, I'd better change the fireball. James touched his head. "Are we going to learn here?"

"Forehead......" Janold looked back at his humble shack and smiled awkwardly. "You need to understand your master, I really don't have any money now. ”

"Forget it......" James glanced suspiciously at the not-so-serious master in front of him and sighed. "Where to start?"

"To make fireballs, lightning and ice balls, the most important thing is to have the power to control the elements. To learn these three skills, you must first feel the ubiquity of the world's major elements. Sometimes, the amount of an element changes due to the change of terrain, for example, you feel the fire element next to the crater of the Tire Mountains, and you feel more ice on the snow field of Turan. Kingsbridge belongs to the plains, and the distribution of elements is relatively even, although it is not conducive to novices to feel the difference between these elements, but after all, it is better to exercise. Now, James, you close your eyes. ”

James closed his eyes.

"Reach out ......"

James did so.

"Now, chant a mantra with me. Janold paused for a moment, then uttered a long jubberish of words that James listened to in a daze. When Giarnold shut up and wanted him to repeat it, James could only stutter a rough idea.

"No, I'll report it twice, it's easy to remember. Giarnold shook his head. “ØðïúýïöùîìýüëãÆÂÌìòíç......”

"What a mess this is......"

By the end, James had barely memorized the spell that Giarnold had retribution, but still hadn't created a single flame.

"What's going on? Why don't I have a fireball on my hand?"

"You haven't turned the magic power around your body yet, concentrate on gathering the magic into the palm of your hand, and then chant the incantation......"

"Ah, my attention is all about turning my magic, how can I be able to recite spells?"

"Won't it come out of your mouth if you think about it more?"

......

Two hours later.

"Ahhh He looked at the lump in his hand and the one in his master's hand, and asked suspiciously. "What's going on? Why is my fireball the size of yours?"

"Because we both chanted the same incantation, the size of the fireball was limited. Giarnold explained.

"In that case, wouldn't I have no choice but to make more powerful weapons?"

"This spell wasn't meant to make you create a huge flame. ”

"Is there a spell that can do that?"

Janold paused for a moment, then looked at James.

"Maybe there will be books in the libraries of big cities that have these things written about. I've heard that the people of Turan remember this ancient magic, and after using it, they can control the power of the magic according to the different abilities of the magician. ”

"And you know what?"

"How do I know?" said Janod, shaking his head. "No one is using this kind of magic at the moment, not only because it's difficult to learn, but also because most mages can't handle the strength of ancient magic. He glanced at James. "I've never heard of anyone who can create an attack with just the power of magic, and maybe your constitution is unusual. ”

James sighed. "Is there really no other way?"

"Of course, there are two ways. The first is to create your own magic spell that creates flames that are much more powerful than that. Of course, for someone like you who can't even memorize a magic spell, it's impossible to make up a spell yourself. The other is legend...... Do you want to hear it?"

"Speak up and listen. ”

"It is said that there is such a group of people who can break through the limitations of magic spells, control the elements in the atmosphere at will, and create unparalleled magical skills......"

"Really, where are those people?"

Giarnold shook his head again.

"No, they just live in legends. But it is said that the magician who possesses this ability, the closest to our time, is called Te...... Special...... I can't remember the name of the dam, but he is said to have been the chief magician of the Empire, and his magic is so powerful that he can make his spirit immortal...... Of course, I don't know much, these are the things that old guys who like to sit in the library love to study. If you're really interested in these ancient legends, you can go to the Royal Losec Order and see if you can ask someone to help you find it. ”

"What kind of race is that?"

"It's not a race, it's the name of a guild organization, also known as 'The Royal Seeker of Knowledge'. True to its name, the guild is full of old monsters with glasses and a penchant for burying themselves in stacks of books. If I were to read every day, I might as well die. Giarnold snorted.

"That'...... Where can I find these people?"

"I don't know. But the big ones may have their libraries. New Garand may have. "Janold Mimi Eyes. "What's wrong? You just found a good spot with me, and you want to run somewhere else?"

"No, no, I'm just talking about it, after all, this little fireball is still a little too bad for me......" James recited the incantation, and a ball of flame appeared in the palm of his hand again. "Can this thing burn a goblin?"

"Hey, what do you mean, kid? This is the foundation of the basics, and my true skills at the bottom of the box haven't been revealed yet. Giarnold snorted. "You go back first, practice this fireball technique more, and when you are completely proficient, then learn from me how to turn this little fireball into an explosive bomb. ”

"Okay...... Oh, by the way, master, do you know any skills that can impose the power of magic on the body and enhance your physical fitness?"

Janod was silent for a moment.

"What do you want to do?"

"I'd like to see if there's a way to improve the mage's physical fitness. Because I read the book that when a magician uses magic, he suffers a lot if he is approached by someone. ”

"There are very advanced skills that can increase your elemental resistance, but I haven't really heard of physical fitness. Perhaps those pastors who like to talk about the so-called Three Saints have methods to enhance people's abilities, but those are small skills of carving insects, and they are not enough to worry about. Besides, it is not possible to be a pastor without talent, and if you are not chosen by the Three Saints at birth, you will never be able to become a pastor. Besides, the priest's skill doesn't have much bonus at all, and even if the mage is enhanced by that ability and is approached by a slightly stronger knight, he basically has no power to parry. ”

"Ah...... All right. ”

"Of course...... If you really want to know if there is such a skill, or what I say, go to the big city and find those nerds. However, I can't vouch for whether this method will work. Giarnold shrugged "The most important thing." ”

"What?" James turned around.

Janold tilted his head. "If you want to have something to do with the fire elemental, I think this staff can help you. He stretched out his hand and took a staff from the corner of his shack. At the top of the wooden staff, a red gem was inlay.

"What is this?"

"Fire Elemental Staff, count it as a gift from me. When you chant the incantation, pay attention to concentrating the magic power into the ruby of the staff, which will make it easier for you to create flames, and the fireballs you can create through it will be more powerful. Giarnold smiled. "How can a magician not have his own staff, maybe it's not the best staff in the world, but it's the only thing I can give you right now. If you've got a good idea of how to use fireball, remember to come to me and I'll try to teach you something else......"

He sighed.

"But the things I taught you are probably not as useful to you as the attacks you created out of thin air with magical power, but after all, ......"

"It's alright," James looked at him calmly. "Anyway, you're still my first initiating teacher. 30-Day Crash Course in Magic...... I remember ......"

"Haha, don't forget the 500 gold coins!"

James nodded gratefully, turned and walked a few steps, then looked back at him. Jarnold leaned on his staff and smiled at him, and a smile spread across James' face.

He walked down the street with his staff in his hand and a light suit, attracting the attention of many people. James looked at them with a clear heart.

"Mr. Magician!"

At this moment, a crying cry suddenly came. A middle-aged woman slammed down at James's feet, cried and shouted while holding his legs.

"Mr. Magician, please help me, please help me......"

"Uh......" James looked at the people coming and going on the street, very embarrassed. "Eldest sister, if you have something to say, I will definitely help you within the scope of my ability. ”

"I ...... I...... My daughter is missing...... She, she...... Abducted by robbers. ”

"No, no, no, you should report this to the town hall. ”

"City Hall, City Hall?" the woman suddenly screamed. "They're all hypocrites!baron...... That damn baron doesn't care about that! I don't have the money to ask the Warriors' Guild to help...... Mr. Magician, please help me...... She's been missing for days......"

"Brother, leave her alone, she's basically gone crazy since her daughter disappeared. A passer-by beside him explained.

James sighed, looked at the woman who was crying at his feet, and said, "Hey, let's talk about it......"
