Chapter 62: Hundred Forging Spirits, Second-Order Mage
When Ivan opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the bed, and Master Sino was sitting on the side in a daze, apparently sitting for a long time.
"You won, I found you fainted when I brought you food, it's good to be diligent, but maybe it's not good to work hard, come and drink the medicine. The old blacksmith took a bowl of brown decoction and sent it to Ivan's mouth, Ivan opened his mouth and drank it, the medicine was a little bitter, but after drinking it, his body was warm, and his body suddenly regained his vitality.
"I remember that I did faint, not because I was desperate, but because I was too involved and didn't pay attention. What kind of medicine is this, it feels very effective!" Ivan explained, asking by the way.
"This is given to you by the young man who made the armor and weapons, I used the iron you forged to make the armor for him, and he gave you a tonic, and it was also a retribution. ”
"What about the others? I want to thank him, this medicine is so good. Ivan tried to get up, but was pressed to the bed by the old blacksmith.
"You're gone, do you know that you've been asleep all day, and this kind of transcendence can kill people!
"Master, you believe me, I really didn't pay attention because I was too involved!" Ivan was also a little bitter in his heart, things were a bit too big, and he really couldn't do this in the future.
"Okay, I believe in you, rest for two days first, and then practice while it's hot, you can go back, I'll buy you some external medicine, your arms are already swollen." ”
Hearing what the master said, Ivan found that his arms were really in pain, and it hurt to tear his hand when he wanted to lift it, and it seemed that he really had to rest. When the old blacksmith returned, he put a medicinal cloth on Ivan and did not disturb Ivan's rest.
As soon as he woke up and had nothing to do, Ivan had to try the Hundred Forging Meditation, and when he succeeded, Ivan still remembered the feeling clearly. Even if you don't remember Ivan, there are specific parameters to test, and this is the strength of hardcore forging.
In meditation, there is a difference between the hundred forging of spiritual power and striking iron, but the principle of hundred forging and the feeling of success are still very important. Transform consciousness into a sledgehammer to forge mental power, and then temper it with magic power. At first, the mental power will be weakened to a certain extent, which is the effect of compression and condensation, not only is it not a bad thing, but it is also the essence of this meditation method.
The condensation of spiritual power is of great help to magicians, mainly reflected in the control of magical power. Not only does it increase the speed of spell casting, but it also saves mana consumption, and it is also helpful for learning and researching magic.
Any method always works best at the beginning, and the first time Ivan completed the real Hundred Forging Meditation method found the results amazing. The spiritual power has obviously been more than doubled, and his control of the spiritual power has completely risen to a higher level, and there is a feeling of commanding his arm, and this benefit is not at all what ordinary meditation methods can bring.
"It seems that the original choice was the right one, whether it was to pay the price to study this meditation method of Dean Will, or to take a long leave of absence to concentrate on learning to strike iron. There is no gain without giving, and it is necessary to learn to make choices and give up appropriately. "Ivan has gained more than just practice, but also has some awareness of the path of a magician.
After some cultivation in the blacksmith shop, Ivan returned to the academy as soon as possible. From where Amanda asked for the photography magic equipment, Ivan returned to the dormitory and started a tutoring trip. Interestingly, there are obviously a lot of extra things in the magic equipment, and it seems that Amanda has made a lot of fun with it, but unfortunately there are no inappropriate pictures for children, which makes Ivan a little disappointed.
As the days passed, Mr. Jayne also taught some combat experience and skills in addition to devil training. However, Mr. Jayne has repeatedly warned everyone not to spend too much time practicing, and that it is the right way to advance as soon as possible. When there is no level leap in the face, small ranks can usually be added in time. This is not to say that you can cultivate slowly, but that there is no bottleneck in front of you. In order to leave enough time for the level to leap, you need to cultivate harder, after all, as long as you cultivate, you will improve.
In the days that followed, Ivan began to develop a strategy for second-order fire-based magic. His magic and mental power increased day by day, and after understanding the model and principle of the second-order magic, the burning technique, Ivan began to try it.
Burn is an area-of-effect spell that hits a block of fire into a specific area with a certain amount of duration. It's said to be a range spell, but it's more of a means of forcing enemies. The attack power of the Scorching Technique is not too strong, and the advantage is that the range is large enough, and the enemies trapped in it need to flee quickly, which gives you an opportunity to take advantage of it. Not fleeing is not a good choice, and staying a little longer will be unbearable. If you think it's too easy to ask a water mage to put out fires. Not to mention the effect of water vapor on one's own side, magic is not a game that can ignore the attacks of teammates.
The world of magic is made up of magical words, that is, magic patterns. The academy starts with the selected magic to teach simple magic patterns, which can allow students to quickly improve their strength, but it is a bit of a quick success. This kind of education will lead to an unstable foundation for students, and it will take time to make up for it later, but some wrong habits and cognitions will be difficult to make up.
A quarter is only three months, the first month is laying the foundation, the second month is most of the time Ivan learns to strike iron, and the last month is the time for Ivan to sprint the second-order magic. At the end of the day, Ivan's team began to chat.
"It's almost the end of the season, and I'm feeling a little nervous! I've heard that the end-of-season assessment is very important, and there are more spiritual exams, and the teacher tests them one by one. However, the assessment at the end of the season is more important related to the rewards, and I heard that it is particularly generous!"
Lin opened the topic first as always, she is a girl who can't hide her words in her heart, so she is more lively on weekdays.
"The assessment at the end of the season is indeed extremely important, and the resource rewards are not only twice as many as the monthly exam, but also the cultivation exam. I think you need to sprint. The steady Joe spoke second, she has always been very serious about important things, and more importantly, it is related to resources.
"Joe had a point, even though we still didn't have a 10-game winning streak in our second team match, the reward was seen and it helped us a lot. I think we really need to work hard, do more confrontation training and try to win 10 in a row!" Antar has always listened to Joe, and he advocates organizing confrontation training.
"Teacher Jayne has repeatedly reminded us that cultivation is the focus, that our studies and training on weekdays are all to help us practice, and that early progress is the right path. I don't agree with organizing confrontation training, and I don't have time lately. Ivan opened his mouth to veto Antar's opinion.
"Why? What results can be achieved in less than ten days, and achieving better results in the team competition is the key, this is the only way to obtain resources!Oh~ I forgot, you go to the spiritual cultivation house a lot on weekdays, and I have encountered it many times, so you must have a good score in the knowledge assessment, right? I don't have time to study, but you are also a captain, and you should focus more on the team!" Antar was very dissatisfied with Ivan's words, because Ivan was almost already the captain of the team, after all, they were three people. And Ivan always dismisses his own opinions, as if he was stupid!
"Antar, don't say that! Confrontation training is indeed ineffective, and it is indeed a better choice to work hard in the knowledge assessment, and everything is based on interests. "Joan stopped Antar from continuing the argument, it didn't make much sense.
"I'm not talking about studying, it's just about practice. To tell you the truth, knowledge of magic is nothing to me, and I'm sure I'll be able to get first place again. Cultivation is fundamental, and I'm now busy building second-order magic, and I'm almost about to succeed. "Ivan didn't hide his progress either, and if he didn't stimulate his teammates, they wouldn't know the real effort!
"What? impossible! How can it be so fast? How can the second order be so easy to achieve, you don't want to fool me!" Antar's first reaction was impossible! His own new magic circuit and meditation method had not yet been completely mastered, and this was already at the upper level of the class.
"Believe it or not, I've already taken the first place in the magic knowledge assessment twice, and if you can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't do it. "Ivan is not going to explain so much, believe it or not where his level is.
"I believe it!" At this time, Alice, who had not spoken, suddenly stood up, making everyone a little surprised, Alice rarely speaks, and never participates in arguments, today is abnormal!
"Why do you say that, none of the nobles in our class have done it yet!" Antar still firmly disbelieved, in his eyes, what the nobles did not do, how could Ivan do it?
Alice didn't say much, but raised her right hand and started chanting directly, the white magic array appeared, a bright ball of light appeared from the magic array, and Alice waved her hand to hit the light cluster into the sky.
"Radiance!"
A dazzling light came from overhead, and several people quickly closed their eyes, but fortunately, the bright light came from the top of their heads and did not directly stab their eyes.
"This is the Radiance Technique, Alice, you are already a second-order magician!" said Joe in surprise. She didn't particularly care about the light law Alice, who didn't have a high sense of presence, and maybe she wouldn't care if Alice wasn't beautiful.
Not only Joe, but several other people were also full of surprise, only Ivan was calmer, unexpectedly cleaned up, thinking about it carefully, it was normal, Alice's qualifications were the highest Ivan had ever seen.
"Wow! Alice, you're already a second-order mage, it's amazing! Wouldn't our team be invincible? No, the second-order can be upgraded, so aren't you going to leave us!"
"Alice, congratulations. By the way, you're not really going to leave us, are you?" said Ivan, too, with some concern.
