Chapter 5 Classes
The whole magic office is very empty, there is no one in sight, there is no ghost on the second floor, after arriving on the third floor, looking from the staircase to the third floor, there is only one door around the entire floor, so Rowan walked along the door, the door is open, looking inside from the outside, you can see that this is a large classroom, the classroom is very large, it occupies a full floor can be imagined, but there are only five tables below, and the rest are empty floors. At the front was a wall with a blackboard hanging on the wall, and in front of the blackboard was a lectern, and at the moment the classroom was empty, and there was no one.
Rowan casually found a place to sit down, took out his two books, put them on the table, looked left and right, anyway, there was no one, so he opened the book and slowly flipped through it.
After a while, three children as big as him walked in together, they were all very quiet, and after coming in, they were not surprised to see Rowan, they each chose a seat and sat down, without saying a word, and the atmosphere was quite strange.
Rowan glanced at the three children, two men and one woman, one of them was brightly dressed and looked a little arrogant, the boy was very handsome, and the girl was also very white and beautiful, but when they came here, both of them seemed to be a little restrained and a little uncomfortable, as for the other boy, he was dressed quite brightly, his face was a little gentle, his eyes were full of curiosity, and his expression was very humble, in his eyes, Rowan did not see any sense of restraint, as if he had come to his own home.
While Rowan was looking at them, they were also looking at Rowan, although Rowan was very thin, but the experience of being a human being in two lives made his temperament very elusive, which made the other three people a little confused about his origin.
The classroom was quiet, and no one spoke, for fear of angering the teacher who had not yet come.
After a while, Director Steven slowly walked into the classroom with a book in his arms. With his arrival, the eyes of the four people focused on him.
Steven looked around, cleared his throat, and said in a slow but powerful voice, "Today we have a new classmate, Rowan, from the Viscount's Mansion." He didn't say what he was doing, anyway, Rowan was dressed well today.
The other three looked over, and their good upbringing caused them to nod to Rowan one after another, and then turned around again.
After the introduction, Steve didn't say much, and said slowly, "Since there are new students, I won't talk about so many things today, let's first introduce the secret method ciphertext, Luo Wen, have you seen this part?" β
Rowan nodded and said, "Yes, mentor." β
Steve breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let's talk about the magic ciphertext today." Magical ciphertext was born very early, even earlier than the continental lingua franca, and was only used for communication and research between magicians at the earliest, until later, magicians found that this script was very difficult to learn and affected the communication of ordinary people, so they invented several other scripts, which evolved alternately and became the later continental lingua franca. Later, after a series of magic experiments, it was found that there were many symbols, strokes, etc., which were slowly added to the original text and evolved into the current appearance, so that the magic ciphertext is not only a kind of text, but also a symbol of the law between heaven and earth. Of course, the Magical Ciphertext is only the initial version, and most of its role is still used by magicians to communicate with each other, and as for the symbol that can really communicate with nature, it is the magic runes that we will learn later. β

A lesson passed quickly, and Steve was full of enthusiasm, telling about the origin, evolution, and development of the magic ciphertext, talking about the explanation and paraphrasing of the magic ciphertext, and finally talking about the writing of the magic ciphertext.
Although there are only three words, the content is very rich, and this two-dimensional code-like font can be changed back and forth to become several other meanings, which is a great test of people's memory and patience.
An hour passed, and Steve announced a half-hour break, then turned and walked out.
When Steve walked out, the other three except Rowan breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's too difficult, magic ciphertext, it's just a ghost drawing. The woman muttered, her face dissatisfied, the magic cipher seemed to be a very big burden to her, and there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead.
When the brocade-robed boy next to him heard this, he hurriedly nodded yes, "That's it, fortunately, my father hired another teacher for us, otherwise we wouldn't be able to keep up with the teacher's rhythm at all." β
As soon as the girl heard the teacher, her face suddenly darkened again, "Don't mention that teacher, not even a magic apprentice, just a civilian, and he still has to control us, it's too presumptuous." β
The boy shrugged, "That's what my father paid for." β
The girl was helpless, turned her head again, and said, "Rousseff, have you learned?" β
Rowan raised his head, glanced at the text boy, lowered his head again, and said in his heart, "It turns out that his name is Roseff, and these two are the brothers and sisters Terdo and Telifin, the daughter and son of the City Lord's Mansion." β
For these three people, although Rowan didn't want to know about them, the housekeeper specially informed them when he came, hoping that he could make friends.
Rosseff raised his head and glanced at Telifin, and said with a wry smile, "It's difficult, I just remembered the general idea, and I will study it well when I go home." β
With a look of understanding, Teliphon lowered his head, gritted the barrel of the pen in his mouth, and gritted his teeth at the ghost drawing talisman drawn on the table.
All in all, all three of them didn't look good on their faces.
At this moment, Roseph's voice rang out, "Rowan, do you think magic ciphertext is easy to learn?"
Luo Wen raised his head, frowned slightly, and said, "There are certain rules in magic ciphertext, as long as you figure out the rules, it is actually not difficult, the three words taught by the teacher, I have learned them yesterday." β
Rosseff's mouth grew and he was surprised to be able to stuff an egg into it, and the siblings Tellor and Televen turned around with a look of incredulity.
"What, there is a pattern, then why didn't our tutor say it. Straight-talking, a little rude, Telifin immediately asked in a loud voice, although she didn't know the details of Rowan, but she had never heard of a child named Rowan in the Viscount's Mansion, so she naturally thought that he was the son or daughter of a servant, "Or our teacher is cheating us of money." β
In the face of Tai Lifen's aggressive words, Rowan said quietly, "Magic ciphertext, in fact, is words, words have their commonalities, for example, the structure of the same meaning is often the same, a word, represents one, or multiple meanings, but the structure has changed slightly, the general shape has not changed, the three words that the teacher said this morning, basically the structure is a very unified font, you and your teacher did not find it, it is your problem, not that the words are difficult to learn." β
Rowan smacked Telifin with peace of mind, as a lesson in her disrespectful tone.
Hearing this, Telifin turned her head decisively, and then her face became more and more ugly, and she found that it was indeed what Rowan said.
Tellor and Rosseff also turned their heads, hurrying to study, regardless of whether Rowan was laughing at them or not.
As the teacher said, knowledge is the source of magic, and if you can get better knowledge, what if you put your face on the ground.
γγγγγ
On the fifth floor, in Steven's bedroom, the crystal ball on the table showed everything in the classroom, Steven touched his chin and looked at Rowan's figure with a little meaning, "This kid's understanding is really good, it seems that it is worth cultivating, magic ciphertext has always been one of the obstacles to the advancement of magic apprentices, I didn't expect him to find the law so quickly, it seems that this kid is amazing." β
After resting, he slowly walked down the stairs.
"Today we start the second lesson. He tried to speak in words that children could understand, "The second lesson is a review class, and since there are new classmates, I'm going to revisit what magic is."
In the world we live in, in addition to air, earth, trees, rocks, and water, there is also a thing that is everywhere and omnipotent, and it is called the magic element.
The essence of magic is to control the ubiquitous magical elements in the air of nature, how to control it, first, first of all, you need to have strong mental power, second, you need to calm down, concentrate all your spirits, and feel the magic elements around you, uh, your mental power is not enough, or your mental power is not pure enough, you may not feel it, but it doesn't matter, we will talk about meditation next.
The meditation method is the practice used by the magician to practice, and the same as the practice of fighting qi, but he is not used to condense the fighting spirit, but to enhance and purify the spiritual power, the better the meditation method, the faster the spiritual power, at present, our magicians can practice a total of four meditation methods, low-level intermediate and high-level top-level, generally speaking, when you first start practicing, you only need low-level meditation methods, and when the spiritual power reaches a certain level, you can practice intermediate meditation methods or high-level meditation methods, and you don't have to consider the top-level meditation methods nowγ
"You may know that the essence of the magic institute is to tap the magic talents from all over the world for the magic guild, fill the magic personnel of the empire, and even fill the magic reserves of the entire human race, after all, our human race is still very weak, like us, the county-level magic office, the magic guild issued only three meditation methods, the stubborn stone meditation method, the glass meditation method and the clover meditation method. Now that you've read the book, I'm going to focus on the pros and cons of the three meditation methods. β
"The Rock Meditation is one of the fastest ways to get started, and this meditation method allows you to quickly get started by visualizing a stone, whether it's in a ditch or on the side of the road, regardless of the quality of the stone. The glass meditation method is to find a piece of glass to observe, and the entry is quite simple, and the clover is the same, what I am talking about is that these three meditation methods, the spiritual power cultivated by the stubborn stone meditation method is biased towards the earth system, and the spiritual power cultivated by the glass meditation method is biased towards the gold and earth systems, and the clover meditation method is biased towards the water system and the wood system, and the wood system you may all find, this element can only be used by the profession of druid, so when choosing a meditation method, you must be cautious, but the low-level meditation method is not so different, what type of magic element you like in the future, you can also find other meditation methods to cultivate, this does not matter muchγ β
"In order to facilitate your study, I have brought the materials you need for your cultivation, and the meditation method is also here, so you can choose for yourself. With a casual move, three stones, three small grasses, and three glazed bricks slowly floated up from under the desk and landed on the desk.
In fact, the teacher just repeated the previous things, and the other three had already chosen, leaving only Luo Wen.
Rowan pondered for a moment the description of meditation in the book Fundamentals of Magic.
The essence of meditation is to meditate on certain things, or some supernatural phenomena, in order to achieve the effect of synchronization of that kind of thing, and to raise the spiritual power to a level similar to that of the meditated thing.
To be honest, this kind of introductory thing can only initially change the user's spiritual frequency, improve and purify the weak spiritual power, and make its spiritual power change in a certain direction, meditating on stubborn stones, then the spiritual power will slowly bias towards the three elements of earth, stone and gold, and so on, but Rowan thinks that the primary meditation method, in addition to a little effect at the beginning of meditation, is chicken ribs in the back, so Rowan is not very interested in this thing, but the meditation method is quite similar to the Taoist meditation method.
These three meditation methods, in Luo Wen's eyes, are indeed not very good, whether it is meditating on the stubborn stone, or the glass, or the clover, it is simply inferior, but he has no good way now, he wants to visualize the big grinding disc of the six reincarnations, but I am afraid it will be very difficult to do it, just thinking about it, Rowan feels that his whole body is trembling, let alone really meditating, it is simply death.
He chose Liuli, although this meditation method is also a low-level meditation method, according to the book, he can at most increase the spiritual purity of beginners by about 40%, and increase mental power by about three times, he is now 6 points of spiritual power, and the strength of spiritual power is about 5, so Dacheng's Liuli meditation method can only be increased to between 18-20, that is, the peak of junior magicians, and it is difficult to reach intermediate magicians.
Of course, if you want to learn the Intermediate Meditation Method, you not only need a certain amount of mental power, but also need to make a lot of contributions to the Magic Guild, and then buy it through a large amount of money to get it, otherwise, it is impossible to learn the Intermediate Meditation Method in this life.
Rowan sighed, originally he was still thinking of finding an intermediate meditation method, the magic guild was so strictly controlled, he was simply unable to claw, so he still honestly used the low-level meditation method.
Still, he was skeptical of these meditation methods and mental fluctuations.
The beginning of the glass meditation method is very simple, that is, to visualize the piece of glass in front of you in your mind, the more complete the visualization, the better the effect of this meditation method, and so on can visualize the glass in front of you all the time, then this meditation idea is even a beginner, and then you can always keep this piece of glass in your mind, then even if it is intermediate, as for cultivating to an advanced state, most people will not do this.
The glass meditation method in the advanced state is to use the spiritual power to completely analyze the structure of the glass, and think about it in the consciousness, that is, the spirit of the real glass, in this state, basically this person will be fixed to this state in this life, although the power may be close to the intermediate apprentice, but learning other meditation methods will be very difficult, because your thinking has been quite limited, basically except for those who have no hope of upgrading, they generally will not go to this road.
As a modern person, naturally there is no need to observe the glass block in front of him, the actual structure of high-grade crystals such as glass diamonds will naturally appear in Luo Wen's mind, glass is actually a crystal, and it is a man-made crystal, the glass crystal in nature may only be found near the volcano, he needs to heat the raw material to a high temperature of more than 1,000 degrees, and slowly dissolve a very hard lens, but since they are all lenses, it is better to directly visualize the diamond.
While looking at the glass, Rowan thought of this situation, and soon his mind was alive, the glass glass, diamond diamond, whether it is the appearance or the reality, these are two different substances, but they all have one thing in common, they are all lenses!
Thinking of this, Rowan continued to look down, ready to try the feasibility of this matter.
There are three steps to this contemplation.
The first step is to carefully analyze the basic form of the glass.
The second step is to visualize him in your mind.
The third step, after the success of the second part, analyzes the basic structure of the glass and successfully visualizes.
The first and second parts are very easy to understand, but the third part is a bit troublesome, at least you have to smash the reference in front of you, analyze it from the inside, and even analyze it from the molecular aspect, so as a magician, you also need a lot of tools.
Mr. Steven, their temporary teacher, had a simple microscope that could be rented when the time came. Of course, whether you can use it or not is two different things.
Regarding the method of meditation, Steven gave a whole lecture, and then turned around and left, the time was noon, although no one in the magic institute cooked, but a nearby hotel sent the meal early, everyone ate a meal, and the class continued in the afternoon, still two classes.
Due to the presence of Luo Wen, a rookie who has just started, the meditation method that he continued to talk about in the afternoon was only more in-depth on the original basis, and even the other three listened very carefully.
Soon, the time came for the evening.
It is definitely a good time to enter the silence at night, and the sound insulation in the magic room is very good, and the silence here is not only good, but also the teacher can take care of it, which is very suitable for entry, which is also the benefit of their entry.
After eating, Steven arranged for them to be on the fourth floor, one room per person, the sound insulation of the house was very good, and after entering, there was no sound outside.
Rowan came to his room, tidied up a little, then sat cross-legged on the bed, and carefully checked the main points of the glass meditation method, then put the book aside and closed his eyes.
The composition of spiritual power is very complicated, according to the previous life, he is a string of electromagnetic waves living in the brain, or a wonderful thing produced by those white tofu in the brain, in short, it is not clear, but the elaboration of spiritual power in this world is very critical.
Spiritual power is all human consciousness, memory, emotion, consciousness is the main body, memory and emotion are cultivated, so it is, but both are indispensable.
Consciousness, also known as will, is a symbol of a person's spiritual outlook, is the basis of the existence of people living in this world, memory is the root of consciousness to collect changes in the outside world, without memory, consciousness is just living in a cloud of darkness, nothing, emotion, is a by-product outside memory, he represents a person's seven emotions and six desires, whether it is memory, or emotion, the impact on consciousness is huge.
