When he left Moya's Mage Tower, the mage couldn't tell what kind of mood it was like now - was it a sense of relief from being relieved, a sense of joy that came from being promoted to the middle rank, or a sense of relief from finally ending being repeatedly ** fate? Maybe there were both, but as Bai Ta gradually disappeared behind her, her mind gradually cleared, and she no longer hesitated to be sentimental, and began to seriously think about her career path.

Middle-level mages sound a grade higher than low-level mages, but in fact, they are all at the level of lower-level professionals. It's just that after entering the middle level, the spells that the mage can master are obviously one level higher than the low level, and both attack and defense and dexterity are more than before, so this is specially divided into the middle level among the lower professions to show the difference.

It is also a well-established fact that the middle tier is more powerful than the lower tier, but this recognition is based on the well-established spell system of both sides. A mage like Monia who has just crossed that dividing line does not have much of an advantage over a low-level mage, and she still needs to spend months memorizing mid-level spells, learning new spell models, and building her own spell system.

Even after the spell architecture is completed, it is not the end for a mage like Monia who is good at fighting. She also needs to familiarize herself with the chanting time of each spell, the effective distance of each spell, and the power of each spell through repeated practice...... Combining these, she can truly integrate these newly mastered spells into her combat system, and can quickly understand what spells she should use when fighting.

Until this time, there were basically some mid-level mages, but it didn't mean that mid-level mages only needed to learn these. After the mage enters the intermediate level, he can already learn some spell-casting skills, such as silent spells, quick spells, double spells, and all kinds of spells, each of which takes a lot of time and energy to learn, and even many high-level mages have not even mastered a spell-casting technique.

Of course, Monia will not compare with those mages of the school who do not fight, and before she can be promoted to a high-level mage, she must master several commonly used spell-casting techniques. If it was even possible, she wanted to master all the spell-casting techniques, after all, for the primordial elves, the time and lifespan that humans cared about were not a problem at all.

"It's still too far to think about that."

Shaking his head, the mage put these long-term plans aside for now. The important thing now is not to always be there thinking about the future, but to meditate as soon as possible to consolidate one's spiritual power. People's spiritual power is like the tides of the sea, with ups and downs, and will hover between certain peaks and valleys with the change of mood and the quality of the physical condition. The most important thing she should do right now is to meditate well and stabilize the lowest range of this fluctuation above the dividing line of mid-level mages.

After consolidating her spiritual power, she should go to the Ancient Tree of Knowledge to learn new spells.

As the best place to meditate, it is naturally the Mage Tower, but Monia has been teased by the elven archmage, and she didn't think of this layer when she left the White Tower, and now she can't pull her head back. After much hesitation, she finally chose to give up - anyway, she didn't need the power of a mid-level mage for the time being, and it didn't matter if she slowed down.

However, the consolidation of mental power can be slowed down, but there is one thing that cannot be slowed down, and that is to engrave the spell crest on the body, and turn the spell of the mage's shield into a spell that does not require a spell and can be triggered at any time - this work must be completed while the mental power is still in the middle level. After that, not to mention in the long run, it is worth the ticket price just to not have to worry about falling from the canopy and falling into embarrassment.

But there's more to the Mage Shield than that, as the iconic spell like Fireball, the Mage Shield is every mage's most loyal defender. Before advancing to the top of the profession, if the fireball technique is the sharpest blade of the mage, then the mage's shield is the strongest bulwark of the mage.

In battle, some people advocate attack, but no matter how offensive the mage is, they will engrave a coat of arms that triggers the mage's shield on their bodies, and even some radical mages who think that "the best defense is offense", they don't even remember a defensive spell, except for the mage shield engraved on the body, which can be triggered in time with consciousness alone.

What's more, the strength of the mage's shield is closely related to the mage's mental power, and it will grow with the mage's growth. Even if it is an archmage with saturated mental power, some of the damage that can be resisted at a critical moment is quite considerable, and if used well, it can even change the outcome of a battle.

The human body is quite fragile, and even archmages who have undergone human body modification can only withstand the structure of three coats of arms - that is, any mage can choose at most three spells that do not require a spell to be triggered, and the choice of each spell position is crucial, and each mage has his own unique opinion. But no matter how unique the opinion, there are two spells that have always been unwavering in the status of the mage's heraldic construction, one is the short-range dimensional jump, and the other is the mage's shield.

Its importance is obvious, but it is slightly more cumbersome to engrave.

Monia does not have her own alchemy laboratory in the Elven Forest, and the alchemy tools brought from the Mughal school have been lost and damaged during the journey and battles along the way, and she can only go to the Mage Association to apply for the dispatch of the alchemy laboratory if she wants to engrave the first heraldic spell on her body.

Generally speaking, high-level mages who stay in the alchemy laboratory all year round have their own private laboratories, while mid- and low-level mages do not have a strong demand for using alchemy laboratories. So it didn't take much effort for Monia to apply to the vacant alchemy laboratory, and after checking that there was no problem with the alchemy tools, she didn't immediately start inscribed the coat of arms, but sat down to meditate.

Meditation is not only a way to increase mental strength, it is also a way to adjust the state of mind. Although Monia's heraldic performance is excellent, there are only three opportunities to engrave heraldry, and if there is any accident in the inscription process, then this precious opportunity is likely to be buried by her, which is really beyond regret.

This time the meditation was not to accumulate mental power, but to eliminate distractions and adjust her mental state, so she soon ended her meditation, sat down in front of the tool table, stretched out her left hand and rested on the table, and carefully engraved the coat of arms representing the mage's shield on the back of her hand with an inscription pen stained with bright red paint.

It's a meticulous effort, with every stroke being precise.

The mage's pen was steady, the strokes were rounded, and every stroke was as precise as a textbook example, but at the price of it, she was slow and tired—beads of sweat trickled down her forehead, from the tip of her nose, and from her jaw...... However, she could not move, and once she stopped, she would probably not be able to maintain this state again, and the coat of arms would probably be invalidated, which she could not accept.

You can only endure.

The carving of the coat of arms should actually be to ask someone to help, and the best place to carve it is not the back of the hand, but Monia does not know any particularly familiar and trustworthy mages in the Elven Forest, and all she can choose is to complete it alone. Alone in the heraldic engagement, the only place she could choose was the back of her left hand - she was not left-handed, after all.

It's just that the back of the hand, whether it's on the left or right hand, is not a suitable place to place heraldic spells - if someone cuts off an arm during a battle, the engraved heraldic spell will not be activated, and the consequences will be disastrous for any mage. Monia didn't particularly care - a mage's hands were an important part of the spellcasting system, and any mage would do their best to avoid getting hurt on them.

In other words, if your hands are damaged and you can't cast a spell, it's hard to turn a spell back from defeat, even if the spell crest is still intact at that time. So the ideal situation for a mage is - always protect yourself, both hands and throat - in fact, although it is not clear whether Hand Cream exists in this world or not, the recipe for herbal potions with throat emollient properties has always been a sought-after item in the hands of alchemists.

It's a pity that the dark cuisine Max brought from her previous life allows her to easily turn any kind of potion into an ultra-unstable firework, or a blood-sealed throat**, or even a strong acid that can corrode alchemical steel. She still vividly remembers that after her most satisfying work was drunk by Mentor Kohler, Mentor Kohler opened it and spit out a flame, and then did not speak again for half a month. It is precisely from then on that no one dares to use her alchemy works, and every score of alchemy is a passing score that cannot be shaken.

What a pity...... Obviously, there are many great works after that...... 0

After gently outlining the last stroke of the heraldic circle and putting the inscription pen aside, the mage lamented that her alchemy work was not appreciated, and watched the hard-earned bright red heraldry gradually become restrained, and finally after only a dull vermilion tattoo was left on the back of her hand, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and then habitually leaned back.

It's just that she forgot that she wasn't in the familiar Mughal mage academy, but in the alchemy laboratory of the Elven Forest. The chair here is not a backrest chair, so a predictable fate awaits her......

"Boom!" "Hmm!" The two voices rang out in almost no particular order.

Covering his head, the little mage rolled around on the ground.

ps: This chapter is more watery and doesn't have many words, so let's send it quickly.

PS2: Anyway, dark cuisine is not murderous cuisine, so to some extent, Monia's ability has evolved.
