Everything just now seems to indicate that Aine has lost the ability to connect to the magic net, and from the spell-casting experience that Aine has gained in his life, at least he will not be able to cast a spell until he can reconnect the magic net.

But Aine groaned slightly, silently closed his eyes, and tried to release a mage's hand against the quilt on his body.

The Mage's Hand acts as a zero-ring trick that can move objects of different masses depending on the caster's spell attainment. If you follow Ain's previous spell attainments, there is no problem in moving the quilt on your body.

But the problem now is that Aine has no way to feel the magic web, so he can't cast a spell, and the trick of a zero ring with the gesture of the algorithm master also needs to be connected to the magic net to prepare for release, which is the law set by the oracle issued by the master of magic, Bokabu, when he created the magic web. And now what Ain is doing is completely against this law.

Incredibly, however, the quilt over Ain's body slowly floated.

"Magic Pool...... "Magic Pool" Ain's eyes lost focus, and he silently recited the word in his mouth.

So that's it...... After a short period of sluggishness, Ain finally understood the current situation.

The so-called inability to feel the magic net is because it is supposed to be the magic net that is connected to itself, and it is replaced by the pools behind the gate in the spiritual sea. And these pools have a unified name - the Magic Energy Pool.

Aine was silent, he didn't expect this to be the result in the end. In the game world of his previous life, the magic pool is a legendary specialty that is directly given after reaching the legend, and its purpose is to convert the spells prepared in the spell slots that are not used every day into the power of magic energy for storage, and when necessary, a certain amount of magic energy can be consumed, ignoring the daily spell slots and directly activating. However, the biggest limitation of the magic energy pool is that it is divided into zero rings to nine rings, a total of ten magic energy pools, and the magic energy in the high-level magic energy pool can be used as a substitute for the magic energy of the low-level magic energy pool, but no matter how many low-level magic energy there is, it cannot be turned into high-level arcane.

Of course, in the previous life, this specialty was mixed, and some people felt that this legendary specialty had made the mage brainless, and there was no need to prepare spells in anticipation of today's possible difficulties. And some people think that the legendary mage no longer needs to arrange spells day after day, and this specialty can also highlight the power of the legendary mage.

Anyway, no matter whether this specialty is good or not, it is very useful for the current Ain. First of all, the battles in this world are definitely not as frequent as in the game, and now he has gone from a high-level mage who once called for wind and rain and had a lot of spell slots to squander to a small mage who can just connect to the first layer of the magic net, and it will definitely take a time to adapt, and the current magic energy pool has given him a chance to adapt.

Although Ain can only connect to the two magic energy pools of Zero Ring and the First Ring now, he can feel that both the two that are available now and the eight that are not available have a very large amount of magic energy.

Aine smiled self-deprecatingly: It turns out that I thought I would continue to prepare for the painful daily selection of spells, but I didn't expect this specialty to follow me to this world......

Another piece of good news for Ain is that the magic net is connected to the magic energy pool, not himself, so he doesn't have the problem of having to choose the forbidden school because of the rules of the real world.

Besides, it was Ain's self-deprecation before, that he didn't need to prepare spells painfully every day, which was a boon for Ain, who suffered from a strong choice phobia - although Ain had never admitted that he had a choice phobia in the game in his previous life, everyone who knew him knew that he was surprisingly grinding to prepare spells, and he himself showed a lot of pain in the process of preparing spells......

It can be said that the existence of this pool of magic energy allows many of the low-level spell slots that Ain may have wasted during the arcane learning phase to play their own role. While the attack capabilities of the low-level arcane are not worth mentioning, many of the supporting or chaotic spells can be decisive in the outcome of the battle. When Ain's spell attainment improves, there may no longer be a need to practice low-level arcane arts, so the prepared arcane arts will be directly converted into magic energy and stored for later use.

And it seems that because of yesterday's magic energy impact, although Ain can't activate all the magic energy pools now, he can clearly feel that at least the first seven magic energy pools are completely filled, and although the last few can't feel how much magic energy is filled inside, it can also be concluded that there must be some magic energy in it - although he doesn't know how many high-level arcane these magic can release, but Ain can be sure that the number of low-level arcane that he can release now is definitely very considerable.

Even if you use the magic pool to cast arcane, you are actually using magic energy to build an additional spell slot with a specified number of rings, and then the rest of the spellcasting steps are exactly the same as using spell slots. It's still a normal process that requires spell materials, casting stance, and language elements, and doesn't have the feeling of a turret mage eating blue stripes. But it's better than a mage who lacks spell slots at the lower levels, and can only burn scrolls and swing wands after losing all the arcane in his spell slots.

Not to mention that the main factor that determines the strength of a mage in this world can be connected to the depth of the level of the magic net, there is no such thing as fighting monsters and upgrading at all. Although it is not excluded that the promotion is caused by the battle, the essence of it is that the potential explosion at the moment of life and death has touched the next layer of magic net or has passed enough arcane practice and arcane research to cause a qualitative change in the battle.

When Ain's consciousness touched the bookshelf behind the magic pool, he really felt the shock. Where is the bookshelf, it's completely a player forum for a game in a past life. Or rather, the database of player forums. Ain carefully checked the posts he had made for help from newbies when the game was just opened, and none of them appeared in Ain's mind.

This is against the sky...... After a long pause, Aine slowly reacted. To say that human memory is destined to be limited, Ain is now basically unable to recall some trivial things that happened more than 20 years ago, and can only have a general impression of the direction of history. But now with the help of this thing that seems to be a bookshelf but is actually a database, it's completely different.

Just as Ain was about to take a serious look at the previous posts summarizing the year's big and small events, there was a knock at the door.

"Lord Ain, the ledger left by Lord Greon has been sorted out." An old man said with a thick stack of manuscript paper.

Aine nodded and smiled at the old man.

The old man was one of the only two servants who had escaped from outside the Northwest Fortress and Ain and his mother, Marrington, the old butler of the Lannister Barony at the time, and the other servant was a maid who had been taking care of Ain's daily life, but sadly, the maid and Ain were separated when they were about to arrive in Winterfell.

The old man had been the steward of the Lannisters before, although after escaping to Winterfell, the Lannisters were left with only five hereditary estates, and three of them were inexplicably desolate. The accounting of the remaining two hereditary estates is actually not complicated, but Ain still decided to continue to hire Malinton, the old butler, perhaps because he himself does not handle these complicated numbers, and Malrington does not need Ain's expensive salary, a warm residence, and three meals a day on time, which is the greatest satisfaction of this old man who has served the Lannisters for more than ten years.

"Malrington, you can just grasp the details of these ledgers yourself." Ain obviously didn't want to touch the minutiae of these numbers anymore, "How many gold coins does our family owe now?" ”

After listening to Grean say that the family has suffered a serious financial deficit due to the years of spell learning, Ain is also concerned about debt.

Although Ain knew that many of the casting materials could not be measured in gold, for these low-level casting materials, those golden things could fully explain the value of these casting materials.

When he heard the number of less than a thousand gold coins spat out of Malrington's mouth, Aine breathed a sigh of relief.

For an ordinary family or a down-and-out aristocrat who had lost almost all of his fiefs and estates, a few hundred gold coins was indeed a large amount. However, although Aine only has the strength of a first-ring mage now, his previous experience and memory are enough for him to use his current spell attainments to earn these hundreds of gold coins.

"How much cash do you have at home, and how much of the relevant spell casting materials are left?" After Al learned about his current debt, he asked how much capital the family still had. The abundance of cash and spellcasting materials directly affects whether he needs to earn the most primitive capital by going to work or temporarily joining a group of adventurers.

Hearing Ain's question, Malinton was also embarrassed; "Master, the cash at home now is only enough for the family's daily use, and if the spell casting materials are used, it is about enough for the master to practice for a few days every day...... In addition to this, there is a small bag of gems left by the lady. But this bag of gems should not be used to pay off debts as well. ”

Ain naturally understands what Malinton means, because gems are used as a medium for crafting magic items and many high-level arcane arts, and are a kind of hard currency that can be used as reserve resources, so gems have a natural disadvantage when they are realized. In other words, it is very difficult to redeem a batch of similar gems at the price of their own cash - unless there are some unlucky ones who have to sell the gems they have in their homes.

But for Al Ain, the gems became his greatest treasure.
