Chapter Twenty-Three: The Awakening Ritual
After less than ten minutes, a maid came and knocked on the door.
But before Zhao Xu stood up, Antinoya opened the door, and the other party didn't say much, just bowed his head respectfully, hurriedly put down a box of things, and left.
Only then did Zhao Xu know that the awakening method that Antinoya was talking about was not to read a book or the like, but to cooperate with some materials?
"The way to awaken the 'Wisdom Heart Caster' is very simple, after I finish arranging the ceremony, you can just sit in the middle for a while." Antinoya said as she opened the box.
Zhao Xu was a little confused, "It's that simple?" ”
The mage recited a spell for as long as he tossed, and some players were already able to perform tricks, but they were still stuck in learning the two abilities of "copying scrolls" and "summoning magic pets".
In this way, isn't he equivalent to two thresholds less than others, after all, according to what she said, just sit there for a while.
Originally, he thought that he had to master those two abilities and then give up in exchange for the ability of the "Wisdom Heart Caster", but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Mentor, if I awaken the ability of the 'Wisdom Heart Caster', and then I don't go to the basic profession of a mage, wouldn't it be equivalent to earning an ability for nothing?"
Antinoa's cloak turned slightly to the side, apparently glancing at him.
"What do you think, as long as you don't become a level 1 mage within a certain period of time, you will lose these additional abilities. Except that your dragon language is intellectually attached. ”
"Only by completing Class 1 will it become an anchor for all your class abilities, consolidating them. And I also advise you not to try to think of some very superficial ways to exploit loopholes. ”
"For thousands of years, Arthur has been tried by countless people in ways that you can think of directly, or can't think of."
"Including many new magemen, I like to think about borrowing spell books for others to copy in the future to collect money."
Before Zhao Xu knew that he had the ability to cast a spell with a wise heart, he really planned to do the same, because he could make money by copying it from others, and a fool would not do it, and it was not unique to him in this spell world.
"Think about it, why don't these spell books be photocopied directly with spells? Or find someone with an extremely strong memory, who can memorize it all at once. Why do you need to study for a day, if you don't study, you can't copy it directly? ”
"When you transcribe, you have to understand how the whole model works, so every stroke you make is your perception. But this perception cannot last. Only when you experience the insights in the spell book can you prepare that spell again. This is determined by the way the mage casts the spell. ”
"This matter, ordinary mages will know about it when they transcribe spells."
"However, they don't know that the spell book that lent you a transcription was on the same path as the original owner preparing the spell himself, so it's no problem. However, if outsiders perceive it, the circulation of its own model will be destroyed, so every time it is copied, there is a risk that the spell on the original spell book will be eliminated. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Xucai's heart trembled, it turned out that borrowing the original to copy a copy may also lead to the destruction of the original.
In this case, even if the other party finishes copying, then you can't spend 50GP or 12.5GP per page to copy back your own spells from the other party.
This is too painful, so I'm afraid that except for very good mage friends, ordinary people won't easily borrow spell books, and who knows how far the model itself will be lost.
Just when Zhao Xu was thinking, Antinoya had already carved it on the ground in front of his dormitory with the materials brought by the maid.
Arthur's mage, cast spells, use gestures and spells, and then add materials.
It's rare to need such a big move to draw on the ground, so this is probably not a spellcast.
"Ritual." Antinoa finished sketching a six-pointed star and continued to depict some strange runes with that characteristic chalk-like thing.
"Rituals are independent of the system of sorcery, and it has an intersection with sorcery, such as the ability to achieve some similar spell effects through long-term rituals. However, because it takes a long time, it is not suitable for actual combat, but it is also one of the ways that ordinary people can cast mysterious abilities without spell scrolls. ”
"And some rituals are like this, which are used to awaken professional abilities, and generally this kind of awakening is common in various professional abilities."
"Through this ritual, your two abilities of 'Copying Scrolls' and 'Summoning Demon Pets' in the future will be withdrawn in advance and can no longer be obtained, have you thought about it?"
Zhao Xu nodded firmly.
He made a decision, and there was no reason to regret it.
What's more, Antinoya also chose this way, and he didn't believe that he could really lose.
"Then go and sit down in the middle of the ceremony."
After Zhao Xu heard this, he stood up directly, followed the instructions of Antinoya and sat down directly in the outlined magic circle.
Looking at the six corners of the six-pointed star, each lit a white candle, as well as the mysterious powder sprinkled by the other party around him, and the shadow of himself between the virtual and the real.
Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his heart, this kind of picture is generally not the method of those death squads who try to psychic in European and American horror movies.
"Even if the Demon Lord comes, I can kill it back, what are you worried about?" Antinoya Road.
Zhao Xu could only comfort himself.
Indeed, with the strength of the legendary mage of Antinoya, which clones of the legendary demon lord have really encountered, it is really not necessarily a braggadocio to kill them.
"You take this piece of paper, recite the mantra on it, and then start meditating on the infinite and deep path of your heart."
Antinoya said, and a piece of paper floated in front of Zhao Xu's eyes.
It made Zhao Xu wonder how many zero-level spell mages this mentor had prepared.
Just took it and saw the dense spell that couldn't be written, Zhao Xu suddenly had some doubts-
I, a mentor whose intelligence has reached 50, has also chosen some "defects" such as forgetfulness, and I don't give it to myself until the end of the day.
Fortunately, the spell itself was not awkward, and Zhao Xu immediately memorized it under the pressure of this mysterious ritual.
Then he closed his eyes and imagined himself on a deep path.
At this time, Zhao Xu, who closed his eyes, didn't notice that Antinoya took out a holy emblem of the goddess of magic and put it in the eye of a rune array outlined on the magic circle.
Immediately, she took out another bottle of holy water and poured it directly at the holy emblem, while her mouth was still vibrating with inexplicable incantations.
The complex magic circle she had sketched out suddenly seemed to have vitality, and began to turn red like a fire, and then glowed with fluorescent.
"Boom", Zhao Xu's heart seemed to have received a sledgehammer blow, hitting the atrium deep in his heart.
He snapped his eyes open and looked ahead.
The fluorescence of the circle on the ground also disappeared the moment he opened it.
Each original sketch seemed to be wiped off a bit, fading away, and finally condensed back to the emblem.
Zhao Xu was about to ask Antinoya if he had succeeded, but noticed that his character panel was on.
In the ability trait column, the words "Wisdom Spellcaster" are safely located there.
