Chapter 2: Magical Genius
For the next month, Lin Li had been living in the Luoyue Mountains, and except for the occasional pointer in pharmacy, he spent most of his time learning magic, because he found that he was indeed very talented in magic, and even the old Anduin had to admit that he had lived for more than a hundred years and had never seen such an outstanding magical talent.
After learning three low-level magic in three days, Anduin couldn't help but want to ask again as he watched the progress of this thing, is there any heavenly reason in this world? Thinking that it took me a month just to enter the meditation state, and this progress was praised by the teacher as a genius among geniuses, so what should this kid in front of him be? A monster within a monster or a pervert within a pervert?
I'm afraid that only Lin Li himself knows why he has such an almost demonic magical talent, which is mostly inseparable from the mage's spiritual and intellectual surname, probably only this demonic caste can make him easily understand those incomparably complex spells, and effortlessly combine and arrange the magic elements, this ability is as if innate, as long as he hears any complex spell once, Lin Li can easily recite it, no matter how difficult the magic element ordering, Lin Li can learn in the shortest possible time.
So much so that when Lin Li's mastery of low-level magic reached ten, Anduin didn't dare to teach him any new magic, and he began to let Lin Li constantly practice the ten elemental arrangements.
Boring practice is the easiest to lose interest, but Lin Li has no intention of being impatient, because he knows very well in his heart that although old Anduin is a bad pharmacist, in the field of magic, this grumpy bad old man is an out-and-out authority, and although his opinion cannot be said to be absolutely correct, it is far better than a layman who gropes alone.
So the boring practice lasted for almost a month, until one morning......
After breakfast, Lin Li still began to practice the elemental arrangement as usual.
This is not a magic practice in the usual sense, when a magician is practicing, he first arranges the elements, and then releases the arranged spells through spells, but the method that Anduin taught Lin Li is completely different, he asked Lin Li to just summon magic elements, and then combine and arrange these elements through spiritual power, and finally not release them through spells, but after arranging them, they will be disassembled and reorganized, and the whole process will be repeated until the spiritual power is completely exhausted.
Lin Li was carrying out boring exercises, but Anduin did not plunge into the pharmacy room as usual, after eating, he rushed into the pharmacy room to be busy, today's old mage seems to be a little abnormal, he has been staying in the room after eating, watching Lin Li practice silently, this feeling of being peeped at makes Lin Li a little uncomfortable, so he had to interrupt the practice, raised his head and stared at the old mage and asked, "Have you learned the clear potion formula that you taught a few days ago?" ”
"Uh, haven't ...... yet" was asked about the clear potion, Anduin suddenly blushed, compared to this kid's amazing magic talent, his talent in pharmacy is really a little out of his hands, a simple clear potion, Lin Li has demonstrated it over and over again more than a dozen times, but to this day he hasn't figured out a clear, at least hundreds of materials have been wasted in the past few days, yesterday he almost didn't even blow up the potion room, and now he has been exposed again, even if Anduin's skin is thick, he finally can't help but blush a little.
"It doesn't matter to you, can't you learn this?" Lin Li's expression of hatred for iron and steel made Anduin embarrassed: "Then why don't you hurry back to the pharmacy, what are you doing here, do you still want me to demonstrate it again?" ”
"No, no, I'll study it myself......" Anduin rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and it took a long time for him to remember his purpose, and hurriedly put on a serious look: "Uh...... I won't talk about this today, I have something I want to talk to you about. ”
"Oh?" After getting along for more than a month, Lin Li had never seen Anduin so serious, and he couldn't help but be a little more curious.
The two of them left the wooden house, and Anduin thought for a long time before he asked Lin Li out loud: "Do you know why I didn't teach you new spells, but kept letting you practice elemental arrangement?" ”
"I don't know." Lin Li replied honestly: "Anyway, I don't know anything about magic, what you ask me to practice, I will naturally practice, will you still harm me?" ”
"You kid still have a little conscience." Anduin nodded with satisfaction, with a somewhat relieved smile on his old face: "I've lived for more than a hundred years, and I've never seen anyone with such a good talent as you, you kid is a monster at all, I think even the legendary Gresco can't be stronger than you in terms of talent." ”
"Gresco?" Lin Li knew that he was very talented, but he didn't expect it to be so strong, what kind of person is Gresco, from the old guy's mouth, he knows more or less, the most powerful magician in the dark ages, the strongest man closest to a god among mortals, the mage god who once single-handedly defeated the entire High Elf magic legion, Lin Li could never have imagined that his magic talent could be so strong.
"But don't get too happy." Looking at Lin Li, who was a little overwhelmed, the old mage smiled: "It's one thing to have good talent, but it's another thing to achieve success, in my opinion, you are inferior to Gresco in at least two aspects, first of all, you are not focused enough, in the field of magic, only people who are absolutely focused can achieve real success, too erudite is sometimes not an advantage, take pharmacy as an example, you are young, but you know more than those old immortals in the pharmacist association, a lot of energy is spent on pharmacy, how much time can you have to study magic?" ”
"And the real fatal thing is the second aspect, you are too late to contact magic, according to the records of the Dark Ages, Gresco was born in a family of magicians, his parents were famous ** masters in the Dark Ages, he began to contact magic as soon as he was born, and by your age, Gresco had already broken through the level of a magician, and you had just begun to learn the lowest level of spells. Although time can be made up by talent, talent can't help you lay a solid enough foundation, there are no shortcuts in the world of magic, and before laying a solid enough foundation, all strong ** skills are just empty talk. ”
"That's why I didn't teach you new spells." Speaking of this, Anduin smiled a little ashamedly: "Actually, at the beginning, I just wanted to make a exchange, you guide me in pharmacy, and I will provide you with some help in magic, although this help will not be too big, but it should not be a problem for you to reach the realm of a magician within ten years." ”
"But I soon regretted it, your talent is so good, such a talent may not appear again for thousands of years, I can't bear to see you go down a wrong path, so I no longer teach you any spells, but let you practice the most basic element arrangement every day, you must not underestimate these boring exercises, any world has its own rules, and the magic world will not be an exception, and the element arrangement is the most basic rule of the magic world, when you are familiar with and master this rule, You'll find that everything is so simple, no matter how powerful a spell is, it's just a rule-derived spell. ”
After coming to this strange world for more than a month, Lin Li felt warm in his heart for the first time, and he bowed respectfully to Anduin: "Thank you." ”
