Chapter 29: The Reckless Curse
"Yes, yes, believe in yourself, Sister Dorothy!" Bellingise agreed, "Although Grandpa Macdon and Grandma Millis of Casey Harbor Bakery suffer from amnesia, they are still optimistic about life, and a little difficulty is not a big deal in the face of a strong heart! ”
"Yes! As His Majesty once admonished the warriors of the clan, giving up is a more frustrating shame than failure, because it means that you have lost even the courage to try! Koto didn't understand Justina's story at all, but he clearly had his own criteria for persistence and abandonment.
Jay and Stonefist did not speak. Miss Poet's emotions are forever hidden under her hood, and the Orc Monk believes that he has no right to interfere in the decisions of others, though he also hopes that Dorothy will overcome the frenzied fluctuations, just as he himself has vowed to overcome the dark side of the orc bloodline anyway......
Able and his black cat pet Thoros also chose to remain silent, and the legendary mage's mechanical mage apprentice never interjected when his mentor spoke.
Dorothy hesitantly looked back and forth at her companions. The Thorn Squad may not be familiar friends to her, but the encouragement of the crowd seems to have helped her to a greater or lesser extent.
The light of the sea blue eyes moved back to the face of the Gray Court Tutor, she gritted her teeth, and said in her heart, then give it a try......
Then he also raised his own hand, his fingers mimicking the gesture of Yu Stina.
"Well, a brave attempt is the first step towards success." Yustina nodded in satisfaction, "But this courage alone is not enough...... Now, watch my moves and keep up with me. ”
As the words fell, the posture of the hand quickly changed between the five fingers of the Sage Lady.
Dorothy reacted and immediately tried to catch up with her. Miss Warlock's movements were relatively sluggish and slow, but the Grey Court Sage seemed to have deliberately slowed down her speed so that the former could barely keep up with her pace.
Festina then began to add a verbal component to her hands' spell casting. The spell chant could have been omitted by the Mage class's "Spell Silence" specialty, but she was now showing Dorothy how to cast a spell, so she didn't save that little time spent on spell words.
Her lips opened and closed in an orderly manner, and the ethereal words were woven into segments.
The red-haired Miss Warlock did her best, keeping her hands in action while mimicking the sage's chant at a slower pace—and when it was all done between her fingers and lips, the turbulent flow of magic danced wildly within her.
She could feel it—her spells were in a state of extreme instability, like the danger of a blind man walking on a tightrope!
However, the results of the spell casting by imitating the sage took an unexpected turn. The frenzied turbulence rampant through her body was blocked by an invisible barrier.
Dorothy was stunned, then stunned, surprised, and transformed into a surprise that she had never thought of.
Yustina looked at her. In fact, the teaching of spells is far from being as simple as it may seem to outsiders, after all, imitating spells requires a mage apprentice's dynamic observation, memory, body coordination, mental understanding, and instantaneous decision-making...... and many other aspects of subtle ability.
For warlocks, the process of teaching is actually a kind of "inducement", luring out the power they are already qualified to master from the warlock's body, and what can be induced is "can", and if it can't be induced, it is "cannot". The essential difference between one and zero, there is no circumstance beyond these two possibilities.
Miss Warlock mimicked her actions and successfully cast the spell she had just cast, and although she was barely satisfied.
"So, this is the 'Shield of Madness', the first spell I plan to teach you here." Yu Stina smiled kindly, and raised her left hand relaxed her five fingers, "The Shield of Madness is a 2-ring spell, although it can't completely avoid the risk of Crazy Fluctuations, but it can greatly reduce the probability of bad Fluctuations appearing, which will be very helpful for your spellcasting." ”
After speaking, the words in the mouth of the Gray Court Sage paused.
"But now is not the time to let up - Warlocks with Wild Waves, if the Shield of Madness is the foreshadowing of your casting talent, then the next spell is your true power."
"It's called 'Naha's Reckless Spell,' a 1-ring spell that will put you head-to-head with legendary spellcasters in the distant future."
"It resides in your body with the frenzied waves, waiting for you to awaken it, and your reward will be to channel the essence of mad magic from your body to the fullest—"
As she spoke, Yustina's fingers danced again.
Dorothy realized, and quickly recovered from the surprise just now, imitating the gray-haired sage's spell casting as before, and this time the imitation was several times easier than she expected. The cast lasted about five seconds, and the turbulence of magic roared like tar embracing fire.
The roar erupted from her inner body, the runaway part of it slammed into the dam known as the Shield of Madness, and the filtered controllable power tried to vent through her fingertips through her spell casting - but the "width" of her fingertips could only allow one of the many streams to pass through, and the rest would be discarded as the stream passed.
The types of "trickle" are the spells she currently has as a warlock, ranging from the 0-ring cryo ray, the 1-ring magic missile, which is known as the most basic of formal spells, the 2-ring blazing orb and smashing soundwave, and the 3-ring lightning beam and fireball...... And so on and so forth.
She panicked for a moment, and her breathing became rapid: "Sage, I, I'm ......"
"Choose a spell, immediately." Yustina stared at her, not accepting her evasion, only telling her what to do.
Dorothy's eyes widened, a drop of sweat slipped down the corner of her forehead, and the hand she cast the spell was like a longbow that had been loosened and full of strings, and the destringed arrow could only be aimed in one direction without looking back!
"Fireball...... Then the fireball technique is good! She shuddered, trying to make her choice among the many spells, thinking to herself that she should choose the one she was best at and skilled at when she was still in the Red Scorpion Adventure Band.
Fireball - In the past, this was the killer move that made her official name in the adventurer circles of Twilight.
The choice of spell was dictated by her will, and the surging mana water vanished like a low tide, leaving only one of the trickles called Fireball Spell through her fingertips, adding a new conundrum to the red-haired Miss Warlock in the short process.
The problem is - Dorothy didn't know why, suddenly felt an invisible turntable seem to appear in front of her eyes suddenly, and the area at the edge of the turntable was divided into countless possibilities by countless lines, a malfunctioning pointer rotated at high speed like a convulsion on the disk, and the area where the tip of the needle swept in the counter-clockwise direction was named "Double Cast Range", "Three Instantaneous Repeats", "Cast Target Forced to Transform to Itself", "Cast Forced Failure", " Cast Effect Forcibly Transforms into Withburner", "Cast Effect Forcibly Transforms Atlas Gate", ......
Her eyes couldn't keep up with that crazy pointer at all!
"Take the initiative to choose an outcome that you think is good." Fortunately, Yu Stina's voice appeared in her ears again at this critical moment, "This is your power, and you have the power to dominate it. ”
Actively select ...... Dorothy listened to the sage, and tried to use her will to control the pointer on the turntable, as she had done before. The pointer on the board resembles an untamed eagle, but her will forces it to stop at an area called "Double Cast Range".
The possibility of being selected by the pointer on the wheel suddenly becomes a real result. She looked around urgently, raising her hand and pointing her index and middle fingers together diagonally to the distance outside the courtyard hallway.
As the master of the Grey Courtyard, Yustina's will allowed Miss Warlock's spells to work in one place, and the double-range fireball immediately turned into a small spark that leaped out of her fingers, breaking through layers of colorless air and pulling a straight line, reaching the limit of flight distance, and then bursting into a cloud of crimson fireworks in the gray sky of this subdimensional space......
