Chapter 52 Always need more

Heavy snow covered the mountain, and the cultists of the Destruction and Rebirth Cult did not harass them anymore. Except for the geisms that walked in from time to time, or entered the highest meditation retreat room in the tower, or were sent to Earth by Feiqi's middle beard, there were no other visitors here.

It's quiet outside, and if you prick up your ears, you can even hear the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground. Although it is in the mountains, there is no howling wind here, but the snow is quiet, quiet, and always falling. Feige looked down from the platform of the tower, and the snow had buried the second floor of the tower. However, this does not mean that you can step on the ground by walking out of the three-story window. How do you know, you ask? Fitch once threw Midnight out, and then saw the black briquettes disappear into the white snow, leaving only a deep pit.

MIDNIGHT FREES ITSELF BY FLOATING ITSELF WITH THE TELEPATHIC OBJECT "SUA" - IT SCRATCHES FITCH HARD IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARD.

Even cats sink into the snow, and you can't go outside, and it's impossible to have a snowball fight. And there is always someone on duty in the meditation room, so the three of them basically can't get together, and even if they make a deck of poker, they can't fight the landlord. And chess, Go, checkers, and the like...... It doesn't seem like a good time for them to appear at the moment.

But there is a game of dice and chess pieces, which intrigues Feige. It's a pity that Old Man Kiplin can't play, and Kyle's stinky temper only makes Feige train, not teach him games. In the end, Feige and Midnight are in a similar mood, and one man and one cat can't play cards and chess at allβ€”they can't even tell the difference between rock-paper-scissors.

So, Feige's only pastime at the moment is practicing spells. Make a circle around the ground with the "Magic Covering Belt", then sit cross-legged inside and shoot a ball of lightning. The priest of the Goddess of Truth Thunder is the best at lightning spells, and there are many records of related divine arts, so there are many spells referenced, and it is easiest to produce results.

Unleashing the Thunderbolt Palm is not too difficult, and the lightning beam is still a little less powerful, but the spell structure is complete. But Feki's requirements for lightning spells don't stop there. Electricity is not just used to split people, but has a broader effect. In Feiqi's opinion, the residents of this place, known as the "Yongli Continent", have not seen electric lights illuminate the night, where can it be considered "eternal dawn"?

"No! continuous current has been done, but this is direct current, not alternating current, and where is the voltage and frequency controlled?" Feige tugged at his hair, stared at midnight with wide eyes: "I don't want to be precise, it must not be much different! If I can't do it, how can I charge my laptop!"

"Mao?"

Midnight tilted his head, and his eyes twinkled with ignorant little stars. Because it was cute enough, Feige resisted the urge to choke it. He had to admit that he had encountered a problem, and that was how to better articulate his ideas to make the spell work the way he envisioned it.

"That starts with the basics. Let's not talk about voltage, frequency, can you understand this?"

Feige didn't ask questions at midnight, but through midnight, using the Devil's Contract text to ask questions to the world. Soon, he got a "Mao" with a questioning tone as an answer.

"Well, that concept doesn't either. Feige had a parchment scroll with dozens of conceptual words on it, such as "seconds," "pressure," "density," "hardness," and so on, and now a "frequency." These things were discovered by Feige when he was recently contacting spells, and there were no spells or runes to express them, so he couldn't control the effects of spells precisely.

"Souls can change the world, so with spells, that's good, I can't make things float on Earth. But here, controlling the movement of matter is just SUA, whether it is the weight of the moving item or the speed of movement, there is only one control indicator: my mana. ”

"If you practice more, even if your mana remains the same and your efficiency can be improved, you will be able to carry heavier objects and move faster. This is indeed the easiest to control, but it is not possible to control it precisely. When using complex structures, such as multiple sets of traps that need to work together, this spell can lead to scrambling. So, it is necessary to find ...... Or create these concepts to be able to control spells precisely when needed. ”

Feige raised his hand, focused on his fingertips, and gently spat out the incantation. The arc immediately formed in the palm of the hand, levitating, not in contact with the skin, avoiding the backlash against him. Then, as soon as he flipped his palm, the electric light turned into a huge palm shape and was emitted, exploding two or three meters in front of him. This is the Thunderbolt Palm, which Fei Qi can use three times in a row when he has sufficient physical strength, and his power can shatter wooden targets, and he has already used it skillfully.

When it comes to spells, Feige has his own understanding. If it is a battle, it is natural to use it as quickly as possible, the more powerful it is, the better, and the less it consumes, the better, and if it is a daily life, it is more convenient, safer, and more energy-saving. But if you want to achieve some kind of breakthrough, such as studying the turbulence of space to stabilize it, or manipulating the soul to safely transfer from one body to another, or finding a way back to Earth. This means gathering as much information as possible, making more precise and comprehensive control over the spells, and allowing the spell to carry more complex commands.

"There aren't enough runes and spell words!" Fitch stood, grabbed his belt and tied his pants, and rushed into the library. He hopes to find more and more precise expressions of spells, especially the most basic weights and measures, such as runes corresponding to distance, time, and mass, so that at least a workable system of spells can be established.

He didn't have time to read it carefully, and he spent more than a month looking through all the books in the library with a quick browsing method, but he found the runes representing the direction and time in a ritual book called "The Song of Yesterday", but there were no spells. The snow outside had stopped, winter was coming to an end, and Feige still couldn't solve the problem.

So he went to ask Old Man Kiplin.

When he saw the old man, Feige didn't know whether he wanted time to go faster or slower. If you go faster, the winter will pass as soon as possible, and the old man will not have to suffer, but if he walks fast, the old man will age faster, and he will look really too old, and I am afraid that there will not be enough time.

The snowy owl curled up in his thick clothes, showing only his face and one hand. This winter, except for the beginning of the period, the old man's spirits were not very good, and he no longer had the energy to worry about divine prayers or tedious paperwork and accounts. He had a light novel of the Knightly Rider in his hand, which made him feel better. Most of the time the old man was sleeping, so he could concentrate more on a pair of stubborn eyes that were still bright and bright. He was a little surprised to see Feige arrive, and after reading Feiqi's question, he shook his head and said with a smile:

"I told you a long time ago, it's better to use magic skills, and you don't have to worry about these things at all!" The old man still did not forget to persuade Feiqi to become a priest, so he said: "If you study the scriptures of the goddess and listen to the teachings of the goddess, you will naturally be able to use the truth of the world." ”

The goddess is like a super intelligent automatic wish fulfiller, understanding, transforming, and realizing in one step, and the more pious the better. "So in the Church of Thunder Truth, can anyone use divine magic to travel to other worlds?"

"As long as you are pious, you will go to the kingdom of the goddess after death. The fallen go to hell or are thrown into the abyss by demons. There have been bishops who have opened the gates to hell and then attacked. This kind of thing is too dead and wounded to be considered a good act anymore, so the goddess no longer supports such prayers. Why are you asking if you want to go to other worlds, do you want to go to the Goddess Divine Kingdom as soon as possible? I'm not in a hurry!"

"I mean, the other world......" Feige found that not only was he unable to discuss complex issues with the world, but he also found it difficult to communicate with the world's inherent ideas. He thought for a moment and put it another way: "Can you go to the stars and look at them, such as a bright star in the night sky?"

"Go to the stars? You have very old thinking, things from the time of the Creator, and now it's not in fashion. Caring more about the people and things around you, and doing more good deeds, this is great. Feige, don't think about the illusory things that you don't have. ”

"It's not useless. Wait, the creator has something to do with this? Does he have magic too?"

"There were, that's for sure. Many of the current magic techniques also use the magic of the past, and so do the runes of spells. Do you want to go back to the origin of the runes? Oh, you're not going to other worlds, you're wondering how the world came to be!"

Thank you to the old man Kiplin for helping him with the question of what to ask. Fei Qi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, that's what I meant." I look at spells now, and it feels like it's messy, complicated, and there are too many mistakes. The Creator ...... I didn't think of that! He made everything, and he should have all kinds of basic concepts! I mean runes. ”

"I can help you apply for a book like this – it won't be too hard, as long as the snow melts. Old man Kiprin suddenly looked at Feige with an expectant smile, "Or, I can recite the book I know to you, and you just need to finish my work." ”

"I don't want to wait until the snow melts, I want to learn now. So Lord Snowy Owl, what's the job?"

"Learn the arts. Starting with the simplest prayers, I want to watch you learn the magic well. There must be progress and results. ”

"It's not fair. I've tried, but I can't learn magic. The Goddess did not answer my prayers. ”

"Remember our prayers at dinner every day, the world was created by the Creator and ruled by the Goddess of Truth and Thunder. Everything you do is under the gaze of the Goddess, all your actions are answered, and you focus only on prayer. Feiqi, the goddess will not give up on anyone, let alone snub anyone, let alone the excellent children of the royal earl and the Templar family. You have a lot of potential, but there are too many distractions and troubles around you, so the goddess sends you to the lonely and cold Ice Peak Fortress. Haven't you found what you're good at and what you love here?"

"But it's magic, not magic. Feige stubbornly repeated, "I can't use magic skills." Spells are enough, really, spells are fun. ”

"Spells may be enough for you, or alchemy may be enough for you. But ......," Old Man Kipulin said slowly, "for the Ice Peak Fortress, there is a need for divine arts, especially for the divine magic users that everyone can trust and rely on, and who can think about the few poor guardians here. Feige, I hope that person is you. ”

After hearing this, Feige held his head in his hands, his nails digging hard at his skin, and was silent. He knew that the best way for himself was to refuse immediately, and he would never touch the magic arts, which was the safest. But in this way, the old man Kiplin will definitely be very disappointed.

Feige didn't want to disappoint the old man, just as he didn't want to let himself down. He touched his belt, perhaps the Magic Obscuration Belt would help him. It is just prayer and study, not dedication, and as long as you don't use demonic power, you may not be exposed. Besides, isn't it normal to not be able to learn divine arts, hasn't it always been like this in the past. The old man just didn't give up.

"Okay, I'll try again. Feige looked up and replied, "But it's really a waste of time." ”
