Chapter 148: Mirroring
Shadow Style: Mirroring.
This is one of the second-level advanced magic spells of the shadow magic style.
As for the ability to mirror the magic, as the literal meaning describes, once cast, it can be used to copy a copy that is exactly the same as the caster's body.
The duration of this clone is approximately 6 hours.
Of course, this clone does not have any attack power, but the caster can manipulate the clone within line of sight and gain the clone's five senses, and the clone will shatter immediately if attacked.
In short, it's an illusion type of magic.
Compared to offensive magic, it is really not very useful, but in actual combat, it can hide its real hiding place very well, use the mirror image to lure the enemy's attack, and he is either waiting for an opportunity to move, or secretly retreating.
Once you learn this magic.
The life safety of the Shadow Mage will be greatly improved, and whether it is attacking or retreating, it will be more handy.
Vega now has two spells.
One is the shadow technique, which can manipulate shadows in battle.
The other is the trick style, which can enter the stealth state, and cannot be detected by non-high-level magicians and spirit mages.
If there is this Shadow Magic's advanced level 2 magic 'Shadow Magic: Mirror', then combined with the Trick and Shadow Magic, it will be difficult for ordinary magicians to kill him, and it is not too much to say that it can be attacked, retreated, and defended.
The most important point.
The mirror image is not stealth, he is really a copy of a body that is exactly the same as the caster, if he stands in the same place, even a spirit mage, he can't tell which copy which is the main body.
Vega did not hesitate and chose this mirror image.
On the one hand, of course, it is for the sake of his own life safety, and on the other hand, there is only one advanced magic included here, and Vega has no choice at all.
With the rune pages and the magic cloak in hand, Vega said goodbye to Daini and walked out the door.
He went to the temporary private room he was assigned to and put the magic cloak on his body, the special effect of this magic cloak was a 30% increase in concealment, and with the unfolding of trickery, even the lower mages could no longer detect his traces.
Of course, the Speech Mage is not among them.
A spirit mage with the ability to perceive, detect, and predict, even if he is one level below him, can easily detect his trails after stealth.
So in a way, God is fair.
While the Speech Mages were deprived of their ability to attack, the heavens gave them extraordinary auxiliary abilities.
Empty your mind.
Vega sat cross-legged and took out the rune page of 'Shadow Mirror'.
Since the trick can't hide from the eyes of the Soul Mage, let's learn to mirror it, as long as you learn to mirror it, even if you don't use the trick style, there is a 50% chance that the Soul Mage will make a wrong judgment.
This 50% chance is sufficient.
Even with an extra 3 seconds, Vega was sure to get past the elemental mage's magic output and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the elemental.
Close your eyes.
The '+1' sign has appeared at the top of the rune page.
This was Vega's only skill point, and he was desperate to get more.
Because in addition to magic to learn, he also needs to learn the combat skills of professionals, after all, as a shadow mage in close combat, it is absolutely beneficial to know one or two combat skills, and he can even turn things around at a critical moment.
Although there is no evidence that skill points can be used to learn combat skills.
However, Vega guessed that since magic can be learned using skill points, there is no reason why skills that are much simpler than magic cannot be learned using skill points.
The thought moved.
The study of 'Shadow Mirroring' has officially begun.
When the first rune disappears from the rune page, Vega can already use the 'mirror', but it is only a simple use, he can't even manipulate the mirror, it is completely like a scarecrow.
The second rune vanished, and Vega felt that he could manipulate the mirror image to make some simple movements, and even say a few simple words, but the movements and voice were still stiff.
......
When the last rune disappears.
Vega opened his eyes, for he had already cultivated the 'Shadow Technique: Mirror Image' to the point of reaching its peak.
To put it simply, Vega can already manipulate the mirror image in the same way that it manipulates its own ontology.
He can use the mirror image to make a sound, and even make the mirror image pick up a weapon and make some simple combat moves, although the mirror image does not have magic and spiritual power in the body, but it also has the combat power of ordinary people.
After completing his training, Vega decided to experiment with the usefulness of this new magic.
"Sorcery. ”
The spell medium on his chest turned red, and Vega first used the trickery to keep the main body in a stealth state.
"Shadow Mirroring. ”
In the stealth state, Vega uses the shadow mirror again, and then sees a copy that looks identical to the original body appear in the room, while his main body is still in the stealth state.
It's simply ......
Vega could already imagine that in actual combat, the enemy mistook his mirror image for his main body, and then resolutely launched an attack, while he himself used trickery to sneak up on the enemy's side, killing them with one blow when the enemy thought the situation was decided.
If it is combined with his shadow technique.
Vega was once again aware of the power of the Shadow Mages, a group that could do almost anything they wanted in the war as long as they were not present.
Knock knock.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
A trace of doubt flashed in Vega's eyes in the stealth state, who was visiting at this time?
Father and daughter of Dani Burton, or head of Wolfe?
Vega was going to remove the mirror image and open the door with trickery, but his eyes moved, and now was not the time to experiment with mirroring, so he didn't remove the trickery, but manipulated the mirror image to open the door.
Squeak –
The door opened, and an unfamiliar face greeted me.
He looked to be around 25 years old, wearing a pitch-black cloak, no spellcasting medium in his hands, and two daggers pinned to his waist...... No, in addition to the two daggers at his waist, the sneaking Vega found two daggers hidden in the military boots of the comer.
"You ......"
The mirror image of Vega asked, but the visitor did not seem to notice Vega's anomaly.
He stared at Vega's clone and didn't answer Vega's question.
"Excuse me......"
Vega manipulated the mirror image to make another sound, but was forcibly interrupted by the young man in a hoarse voice: "Ensign Vega Kareni?"
"That's right. ”
Vega replied in the affirmative, "May I ask ...... you?"
The voice did not fall.
The young man in a cloak and tights, with a hoarse voice, suddenly attacked Vega's mirror image.
