Chapter 17: Leaps and Bounds
"Fireballs?"
Nami, who was sitting on the front half of the boat, noticed the fireball appearing at the stern, turned her head to look over, blinked, and was slightly surprised.
Although Ron's 'masochistic' tossing over there made Nami not want to get close, the sudden sight of the fireball appearing and extinguishing still brightened her eyes.
But then she thought that Ron had taught her magic before, but she didn't need it, and according to Ron, because she didn't have a magician bloodline, she couldn't help but puff out her cheeks, a little unhappy.
Nami was a little emotional, but Ron didn't notice it, and his attention was all on the fireball technique he had just released.
"Power...... Well, it seems pretty good. ”
Watching the fireball extinguish in the sea, Ron touched his chin.
Compared to the Wind Blade Technique, this Magic Fireball Technique of the Fire Technique is undoubtedly another characteristic, the Wind Blade Technique is a one-hit kill, with strong penetration and speed, while the Fireball Technique is a large range, more difficult to resist than the Wind Blade Technique, and has continuous damage.
Like the previous captain Crewe, when he encountered Ron's wind blade technique, he barely blocked a blow with the sawtooth knife, if he was a little stronger, and the sawtooth knife in his hand was a little harder, it was also possible to completely take the wind blade technique.
In comparison, the fireball technique does not have the possibility of 'catching'.
Either dodge, or try to force it with your sword, it is impossible to block it with a horizontal sword, and in an instant it will be swallowed by the spread of fireballs.
Of course.
Because it can't be blocked, the flight speed of the Fireball Technique is also slower than that of the Wind Blade Technique.
The characteristics and disadvantages of both spells are obvious, the Wind Blade is better suited for battles in open areas, while the Fireball Technique is better suited for battles in narrow alleyways.
"Try again......"
Ron thought for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and his thoughts moved again, condensing the basic runes of the fire system in the spirit world.
Once again, the Fireball Technique was unleashed by Ron.
But this time the situation was a little different, and when the fireball was released, it didn't immediately explode straight ahead, but stayed in Ron's open palm for a moment.
However, Ron couldn't let the fireball hover in the air for long, and he only used his mental power to delay the release of the fireball slightly, but this delay was enough.
"Wind Blade!"
The light in his eyes flashed, and the runes of Ron's spiritual world condensed, and the runes of the wind system instantly condensed.
At the same time that the crimson fireball flew out, a cyan wind blade also condensed in front of Ron, directly catching up with the fireball in front of him.
Rumble!
The wind blade smashed into the fireball, and the entire fireball exploded in an instant, expanding to a level of nearly half a meter, and the speed also increased sharply, and in the process of rapid flight, it was like a sword qi entwined with flames.
The product formed by the fusion of the wind blade and the fireball fell to the surface of the sea, and exploded with a bang, and at the same time the flames disintegrated in all directions, and a water rift was also cut on the surface of the sea.
"Sure enough!"
Seeing this scene, Ron's eyes were excited.
Wind and fire are originally two magic spells with very compatible attributes, and when the wind blade technique and the fireball technique are intertwined, they will naturally not collapse on their own due to violent conflicts, but can be fused together to form a special magic that integrates wind and fire.
And the key thing is that the slow flight speed of the fireball has become the key to fusion, otherwise, even if Ron can delay the fireball for a second before flying out, the Wind Blade will be parallel to the fireball at most, and it will not be able to crash into the fireball.
"This fusion magic...... It's called the Fire Blade Technique. ”
Ron was in a good mood.
Although the Wind Blade and the Fireball Technique were fused together, the explosion was still the power of the Fireball and the Wind Blade, but the shortcomings between the two were covered up by each other, and the advantages were superimposed.
The speed became extremely fast, and the flames were entwined, making it difficult to dodge and unstoppable.
Only by completely slashing this move head-on, or avoiding it with extreme speed, can you be immune to damage, and in other cases, it will not end very well when you encounter this move.
At least Ron can be sure that the previous captain Crewe encountered this move, and he would be seriously injured with one blow, and even burned to charcoal on the spot.
"The pirates with a bounty of three or five million should not be able to take this trick, they can be killed directly in seconds, and at least the pirates with a bounty of more than ten million can barely block it."
Ron made a rough judgment based on the strength of the previous captain Crewe.
It's not enough to deal with Aaron.
Ah Long is a fishman, as long as he jumps into the sea, the fire magic has nothing to do with the other party, even if he doesn't jump into the sea, as long as he stands in the water, the fishman can control the water flow, and can also set off waves to extinguish the flames.
If you want to kill Ah Long, you still need a second-order wind magic, and you have to kill it in one hit, or be seriously injured, so that Ah Long has no chance to jump into the sea and escape.
However, with this move, if you cultivate and improve some spiritual attributes, the pirates with a bounty of about 10 million can also be included in the target
Thinking of this, Ron still showed a hint of satisfaction.
In the following time, Ron began to practice the fireball technique again.
Because the proficiency in the condensation of runes is much higher than when he first started practicing magic, it is much easier to master the fireball technique.
The third time he used the fireball technique, Ron's release time was shortened to less than 3 seconds, and the fourth time it was directly shortened to about 2 seconds.
After meditating for a while to recover the lost mental power, Ron practiced the fireball technique again, and after seven or eight times, the release speed had already reached about 1 second.
For Ron now, it is very simple to clearly remember a rune, it will not take much time, and the process of condensing the rune, as long as it comes five or six times, the proficiency will almost go up, and the speed will naturally increase rapidly.
It took less than three hours for Ron to release the Fireball Technique at a rate similar to that of the Wind Blade.
And in the process, Ron has achieved another achievement and moved forward steadily.
This achievement is conditional on a cumulative 100 hours of cultivation, and Ron has been practicing continuously since he came to this world, and just now he happened to reach the standard of 100 hours.
Steady progress gives Ron an achievement of 2 points, which is the same as 'The Unfortunate Man', which is a slightly higher achievement.
The 2 achievement points naturally did not have any accidents, or they were pointed at the spiritual attribute, which also brought Ron's spiritual attribute to 27 points, close to the 30 point level.
As his spirit became stronger, Ron's mental power recovery speed under normal conditions also increased a bit, and the mental power recovered almost every ten minutes was able to release a Wind Blade Technique.
Although this speed is not very fast, it is still very useful, which means that Ron can cast one more magic in a battle that lasts more than ten minutes.
And Ron estimates that after the mental attribute reaches more than 30 points, this recovery speed should be further improved, and the effect will become more and more obvious at that time.
