Chapter 128: Purchase and Strengthening
Violence to the sky!
Xia Ran couldn't imagine what kind of courage and skill it was, and the stall owner couldn't say it, only that he didn't know when it started, and it was a piece of information that spread among the lost people.
It is not necessarily that there is a reason for it, and especially this kind of obvious thing, those of them who are also on a mission in that world are willing to believe that this is a warning from someone in advance.
- Anyway, it is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not.
"Actually, it's not a big problem, as long as you don't get involved in the main plot, don't go to some special locations, there shouldn't be any problems, at most, it's thrown out at the moment when the chaos reaches the extreme, and the repulsion of the laws of the world also reaches the extreme......"
The stall owner warned Xia Ran like this, and kindly gave his own advice.
"After all, even if someone is ready to ascend violently, it should only be to create a new world of their own, not to destroy the old world. Moreover, so many gods and demon gods are not vegetarians, so there is no need to worry about the possibility of complete destruction of the material world. ”
In other words, as long as you keep to yourself, only do what you can do, and don't expect things that are too high-level, there should be no problem?
Xia Ran felt that this seemed to be the reason, he didn't plan to get involved in those things that were too troublesome, he just wanted to devote himself to studying, hoping to spend all his time studying magic knowledge.
In this case, it didn't seem to be a problem at all, he thought to himself that he was a very measured person, acting quite cautiously, and would never venture into something that was not at all his current level should interfere with.
"Thank you owner...... By the way, how do you buy these books? ”
Xia Ran thanked the enthusiastic stall owner, and then looked at the other party's stall, to be honest, this is like a real used book stall, dozens or hundreds of ancient books, codexes and parchment scrolls, all neatly arranged in different categories.
Xia Ran was still a little shocked just now, he didn't know where this person was sacred, and he actually got so many precious props such as skill scrolls?
As a result, when I took a closer look, I realized that these were not spell books that could be used directly, and they did not record a specific spell. It is a book that discusses, studies, explores, summarizes, and summarizes the art of magic as a whole, or in a certain department, or in a certain field......
This is a bit subtle, and I don't know what this person thinks, instead of collecting more valuable things, but moving back this kind of ordinary books of relatively low value, and doing something that does half the effort.
However, everyone's thoughts are different, and it may be because of some special reason that led to this result, so Xia Ran didn't ask, and he felt that what he needed was the basic textbook in this area.
Because although he is beginning to dabble in magic, his foundation is quite incomplete, and he is only learning some necessary knowledge of a specific spell.
To a large extent, he is not familiar with the field of magic, and even the few entry-level spells he currently has mastered are only aware of what they are. I just know how to use it, as for the deeper principles and mysteries behind it......
It's really just an exaggeration of the word "half-understood", and as a mage apprentice, he is undoubtedly very unqualified.
Now that I have encountered such an opportunity, it is natural to make up for the lessons, at least teach myself some basic knowledge - rote memorization is better than not knowing anything, and then go to Winterhold Academy to study according to the plan, so as to have a foundation.
These books are not expensive, but there is a problem...... Lack of understanding of the written language.
After all, when a magical world of different dimensions becomes a reality.,It's no longer a game.,Don't expect any official sinicization.,It not only has its own rules.,It also has its own culture.,Its own history.。
Therefore, the language and writing are naturally completely different, after Xia Ran flipped through it, he looked confused, and he didn't understand what the weird characters on it meant, and it was not even a way to guess with some patterns and pictures, after all, this is not "Reading Pictures and Literacy".
There are two ways to solve the problem, one is to have the white space translated, and the other is to directly learn the relevant language and writing skills...... Considering that I will have to study abroad in the future, this aspect of the problem always has to be solved.
Xia Ran chose the second method and bought several skill scrolls from the stall owner, after all, there are many races in that world, and the history of magic development is long, and there is not only one written language......
Speaking of which, it is said that during this time, the most marketable and best-selling in the white space is the life skills of the main ones in Skyrim Province who are still using several scripts and languages.
Xia Ran picked out five or six different books and codexes, although these things were not expensive at all, but he knew the truth that greed could not chew too much, so he only selected some basic overviews on magic as a whole, or basic theories specifically for the illusion system and the summoning system.
As for the other destructive spells, or about combat skills and the like, he didn't move at all, and that wasn't his thing.
Holding a large pile of books in his arms, after saying goodbye to this more enthusiastic and kind-hearted stall owner, who had strange ideas, Xia Ran continued to wander around the square.
He wanted to see if there was any equipment that would reduce the cost of using illusion or summoning magic, but he quickly dismissed one of his thoughts, even though he should have known from the beginning that it was absolutely impossible.
In the game, because of the problem of mechanism setting, it can achieve the level of zero magic consumption, simply put, it is to use those equipment that reduces the consumption of mana, so that its effect is piled up.
For example, if one piece of equipment can reduce mana consumption by more than 25 percent, then the sum of four pieces of equipment will naturally reduce mana consumption by 100 percent...... The next thing to do is to don't mess around with magic like money.
That's right, it's really not money.
However, the difference between the real and the game is really too great, especially in this aspect, ruthlessly shattering his illusions...... There are quite a few of these pieces of equipment on the market, but not many of them are advanced.
Moreover, equipment with the same effect will not be directly stacked, and the effect of the second piece of equipment will be greatly weakened.
It's not just Xia Ran who has such an idea, someone has already made up his mind in this regard, and the conclusion is that there is no such good thing as the "Three Gods Cycle" in the real world of "The Elder Scrolls", otherwise, there would be no need for the last dragonborn to be born to fight against the World Eater Alduin.
The people of Tianji were able to rely on the three techniques of forging, alchemy, and enchantment to break through the Tianyuan, and one by one they all embarked on the road of violent ascension to the sky, and the whole country soared to the rank of immortals...... Well, what is Alduin?
Xia Ran, who was a little disappointed, ended his wandering thoughts and walked straight back, but was stopped by the previous uncle-faced stall owner on the way.
……
……
Ultimately.
The spell of "Soul Imprisonment" still made Xia Ran buy it, and the uncle-faced stall owner seemed to be impatient...... Or should I say, he ran out of time.
He himself was convinced that the spell book was worth the money, but others didn't think so, and more than a dozen buyers chose to give up. After all, if you enter that world yourself, although you may not be able to get the same spell book, it is not completely hopeless.
And although the uncle-faced stall owner insisted that this thing was really rare and expensive, he did not reach an agreement with the seller, and the stay time was limited, so he was forced to white space.
But he just wanted to go to another person's hand and get something that would be very helpful to him, if he logged into the white space in ten days, maybe that thing would not be in the other person's hand.
Because although the two sides have some friendship, so that the other party can stay for him for a period of time and do not sit on the ground, but since he does not have enough funds during this time, he can't force others to wait for him......
Xia Ran attaches more importance to this skill, and also believes the information that the other party said, and feels that when he enters that world next, he probably won't have time to collect it, but he still bargains mercilessly.
It was very difficult for the two sides to reach an agreement, and although the process was not pleasant, at least it barely met psychological expectations.
After returning to his personal area, Xia Ran thought about it for a long time, first spent 10,000 points to upgrade his personal space to fifteen storage compartments, and then continued to exchange six free attribute points-
As a result, his unallocated points reached ten, and he was warned by space constraints that he would not be able to continue to earn free attribute points until he had completed his allocation......
However, there are not many points left, so Xia Ran doesn't care, he just directly distributes the four points, and breaks through the values of the four basic attributes of physique, intelligence, spirit and perception to 40 points, and then evenly distributes the remaining six points to the intelligence attribute and spiritual attribute.
He has already made up his mind, and the main investment direction in the next step is on these two basic attributes, supplemented by the concurrent cultivation of perceptual attributes. There is also the selection of skills and the matching of equipment, which mainly revolves around the three cores of psychic ability, illusion, and summoning.
- As for strength, agility, physique, etc., for a long time to come, there will be no more dedicated resources.
Because the stay time was still relatively sufficient, Xia Ran did not immediately withdraw from the white space and return to the real world after completing all this, but took out the skill scrolls he had just received and studied them one by one.
First of all, the universal abilities of those languages, and then the new spell abilities...... Perhaps due to the extremely high level of intellectual attributes, memory, comprehension and learning ability have far surpassed ordinary people.
So this time, these skills that were not particularly advanced did not consume much of his time, and he actually finished learning them all before the end of his stay time.
Xia Ran even had room to spare, so he took out a basic magic introduction and looked at it.
The first page was a line of writing in Alexandic, but he could read it now—
“Av molag anyammis,av latta magicka……”
- Life comes from fire, and magic comes from light.
