Chapter 44: Mage Zone
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Any warlord is the wealth of the kingdom. It is not easy to produce warriors from among civilians, some require hard training, others require awakening talents......
Most melee professions, as long as the physique and talent are still good, after a long period of hard training, can always be officially transferred; The priesthood needs to be very devout in their hearts, strengthen their spiritual strength, communicate with the Holy Light, and have a considerable chance of changing jobs.
But for example, if a mage doesn't have an innate talent, don't even think about changing mages. Elemental affinity, mana manipulation, and strong mental power, these three talents are indispensable...... The threshold is too high, and the proportion of its birth is extremely low.
The chance of birth here refers specifically to human beings...... If it's dwarves, don't worry, there is absolutely no mage's storage zài, they don't have this talent at all!
To be honest, Azerol 6 is not a fertile ground for training mages, and one of the most important is that the concentration of elements active in the atmosphere is not very high...... This is also the fundamental reason why the chance of a mage being born in humans is very small, and it is difficult to even absorb the first step of elementals, let alone cast magic.
But on the big 6, a very high magical civilization was born, and that is...... High Elves!
Absorbing elements from the atmosphere is too slow, and the ancient High Elves are a way to absorb the sun well and improve their own magic. There is a sun well with almost endless magical power, which has brought a more advanced magical civilization to this civilized society...... It also brought them doom! For various reasons, the sunwell exploded, and the high elves who had long been accustomed to relying on the sunwell to store magic power were helpless, and they could no longer easily absorb the meager elemental power from the atmosphere, just like a second ancestor who was used to eating a big meal, and couldn't get used to gnawing on a nest head a day...... All of them have become addicts, addicts desperate for the element of magic.
After the explosion of the Sunwell, the elves also divided into corresponding factions. The Night Elves are controlled by the Druid faction, and the demigod (Eternal) Cenarius himself teaches apprentices among the Night Elves, and his proud disciple Malfurion* Storm, with the powerful power of nature, is able to control most of the Night Elves. Fueled by his command, and experienced by all the Night Elves, they were unwilling to become addicts and no longer practice magic...... This is where the Night Elves come from not producing mages.
Unlike the Night Elves, the surviving High Elves, who were unable to control their addiction to the Zhì people, joined the tribe under the leadership of Prince Kael'thas and changed their names to the Blood Elves. They are more rational than their predecessors, and although they still can't control their addiction at times, they are trying to find other ways to break their dependence on addiction...... That's why the tribe has the highest-end mage power, the Blood Elf mage army.
Humans don't have the unique and complete magic system of the Blood Elves, nor do they have the same resolute attitude towards magic as their allies, the Night Elves, but they have their own characteristics...... Strong learning ability, as well as an innate creative nature.
The human mage represented by the ** Shi Gianna was born in this background...... If you haven't eaten a big meal, you will cherish that little bit of nest head even more. A human mage who has never used a sunwell for magic takes the few elements in the atmosphere for granted, and there are no complaints, no addictions. Coupled with their genius creativity, they can use the magic they don't have much in reserve on the blade......
For example, the signature blizzard magic, which was created by humans. If it was the High Elves who created the magic of zào, they would definitely use the magic of the sunwell to create a world of ice and snow for life. But human beings will not be like this, because they do not have the luxury of capital. So, they came up with the idea of using the ice elemental resonance method to only spend some of the ice elemental stored by the mage himself to guide the resonance of the ice element between heaven and earth, so as to achieve a large-scale spell like the blizzard magic, which even the High Elf mage was dumbfounded......
This is the genius of human beings, which is completely different from the brainless way of using it like the High Elves. But obviously, this requires a high level of talent......
So, on the current side of the Blood Elves, mages only represent a profession. But on the human side, they are undoubtedly masters...... On the one hand, it is to respect the strength of this profession, and on the other hand, it is to respect the talent of this profession.
Egger really returned to the Oak Tavern, found the boss, and sincerely apologized, saying that he had just forgotten to pay the bill because of anger, and paid the bill of 1 silver and 5o copper, and left in the boss's unspoken praise......
Passing by the sales department again, he still didn't go in. Ordinary fighters may not have a good time, and I'm afraid they don't have any money left to buy real estate in Stormwind City, right? I'm afraid that I may not have a good face when I go in, so I'd better wait until I get the junior mage certification, right?
Iger has a lot of grievances about owning a nice property in a big city...... You know! In Nanjing, a house in the city is not 2oo, don't want to take it down, the average price is more than 15,000? That can only take the north of the bridge. The newly released highest-priced school district house in Nanjing, known as 3o million square meters, a set of 100 square meters, 3 bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, has to spend 3ooo 10,000 ...... Can you believe this?
The officials want to know the approximate house price first, and when they have the financial resources, they can consider buying a set here. If possible, he even wants to have one or several medium-sized storefronts in the trade area, and let his wife collect the store rent if he has nothing to do...... But it's just an idea now, and I'll put it into action later, right?
……
Passing through the bustling trade area, Iger came to the exclusive mage district west of Stormwind. It's two worlds from the hustle and bustle I experienced before, and it's quiet here...... It's so quiet!
There are only three or three magic apprentices on the main road, and there are a few magic item shops, almost no one cares, and it is sparsely populated!
But...... There are no ordinary civilians who dare to enter here casually. Iger remembered that when he came before, he crossed a small bridge, and when he crossed the other end of the bridge, he felt that his body was blocked by a membrane, and the magic in his body was naturally triggered, but this membrane disappeared abruptly. So Iger was able to pass through Guò, remembering that the two elite-level great swordsmen were guarding at that time, but they just glanced at him and let him go without speaking......
Now that I think about it, it is said that the sudden membrane is not strange, and the eldest young master does not believe it...... In his mind, it must be a kind of barrier that prevents ordinary people from entering, and only mages or warriors can pass through guò. This is the fundamental reason why there are so few people in the Mage District.
In fact, while his reasoning was largely the same, the function of the barrier was completely different from what he had thought. Although most of the mages in the mage area are mages, civilians without mana can still be allowed to enter, after all, no matter how good the mage master is, he always has to eat fireworks in the world, right? Is it impossible to ask every cook and takeaway to be a mage?
The real purpose of this barrier is to prevent outside sounds from coming in, and it is a soundproof barrier to create a relatively quiet environment for the mage area adjacent to the trade area. There are many mages living here, as well as a large number of magic apprentices, whether they are studying magic or learning magic, they need to be undisturbed by the outside world. In addition, although mages will be very careful when conducting magic experiments, it is inevitable that accidents will occur, and this barrier can also prevent inexplicable explosions from scaring ordinary civilians......
But in fact, it has a third purpose, and that is identification. Whenever a person crosses an enchantment, the mage who lays out the enchantment can get roughly the information they want. It's not as detailed as it seems, but at least whether there is hostility or not, whether it's an enemy or not can still be judged......
You must know that the mage area is not small, but the real guards are only the two elite soldiers of Stormwind City that Egg saw before, and they are still used for face, as long as the enchantment does not warn, even interrogation is saved.
……
"This ...... May I ask where I should go for the Mage Certification? ”
The architectural style of the houses here is really weird, and it is completely inconsistent with the regular style of several other districts. Other districts obviously have urban planning, wide and vertical roads, and a flat and stable structure, but here, how to say it?
It's so casual......
That's Egger's first impression!
It must not have been planned, otherwise it wouldn't be so messy! There seems to be no connection between the various buildings, one in the east and one in the west, as if they had each enclosed a piece of land and built it at will, and the styles of the two adjacent buildings are also very different and have no connection. Especially those mage towers of different sizes......
If the messy buildings here have nothing to do with these mage towers of different sizes, I don't believe it if I kill the big officials.
Mage Tower! What a mysterious thing? Only mages of the Archmagus rank (6o-69) and above are eligible to build them. They can plan their space in this mage tower that is completely their own. Most mage towers must have at least a few of the following functions:
1. Defense. The mage tower must ensure the safety of the mages inside, and the materials used are relatively strong, making it difficult for enemies to attack from the outside......
2. Early warning. The Mage Tower must be able to perceive a certain area around it, which serves the purpose of warning in advance.
3. It is convenient for magic research and magic practice. The master can study magic here with confidence, which is the main function of the Mage Tower. Of course, mages who are qualified to build mage towers are qualified to have a considerable number of magic apprentices, so they must also plan a space for them to practice magic.
4. Attack power. This is an optional feature of the Mage Tower, and in addition to requiring defense, some Mage Towers also require a considerable amount of attack power. When a mage tower with a mage in front of it is a critical location, it will be an absolute nightmare for the enemy......
