Jon smiled when he heard this. After losing the magic net, the caster now has more and more ways to cast spells. For example, some mages have lost faith in developing new ways to cast spells, believing that they will never be as proficient in magic as before, and simply become a special kind of caster between a warlock and a priest by signing contracts with powerful mystical creatures in exchange for the ability to use arcane powers.

Equally, there are spellcasters who have returned to the oldest ways of casting, channeling raging magical energy and casting magic through a series of dizzying and complex ways. Without the convenient spell model provided by the magic web, these spellcasters often had to chant spells while performing the ritual of reciting spells, and it took a long time to release a spell, which returned to the most primitive and basic stage of spell practice.

In addition to this, there are spells to bargain with unknown beings for the use of arcane laws, and there are others who learn the priest's prayer intervention spell. There are even mages who try to learn about dragons and various magical creatures, trying to store magic in their blood and body.

In short, it seems that a hundred flowers are really blooming now, and all kinds of seemingly reliable and unreliable methods are constantly being developed and experimented. The collapse of the magic net does not hinder the mages from exploring spells.

Although the development of new magic is still in the difficult stage of exploration, fortunately, due to the newly discovered arcane knowledge, shadow magic, primordial magic, and other sources of mana can provide energy for the use of magic. As a result, magical items that were previously created through the influence of items to permanently store magic, such as magic swords, cloaks, and boots, have survived the Plague of Magic and continue to function normally. This is excellent news for the mages.

"By the way, sister, how are you doing with your research on the Magical Plague?"

Thinking about the headache-inducing project to transform the new magic, Jon sighed with a slight headache and asked about his sister's research progress.

The Plague of Magic is one of the most terrible disasters of the moment. This terrible plague created by the collapse of the magic net has an extremely terrifying lethality.

Any presence in nature, whether it is humans, elves, dwarves, animals, plants, bugs, or rocks, sand, houses, etc., is likely to decompose into red-hot ashes when it touches the plague produced by this magical energy.

Although not all living creatures will be reduced to ashes after being exposed to the Magical Plague, most living creatures will survive contact with the Plague, but their form will be altered, distorted, and transformed into an extremely strange existence, and may even be merged into another creature, another landscape, and become a living spirit of bondage.

This plague of upheaval from magic has no boundaries of terrestrial boundaries or the concept of biological races, and creatures infected by the plague of magic are currently powerless to help them survive in their new forms. Therefore, these infected people can only struggle for days in painful whimpering before dying.

Because of this painful process, it is simply distorted. Therefore, the Grand Arcanists such as Jon were first commissioned by the Church and the Kingdom to study a cure for this magical plague.

It's just a pity that in the face of this symptom that can be called a cancer of magic, the Grand Arcanists have not yet come up with any effective solutions.

The only fortunate thing is that due to the protection of the gods, the first wave of the plague only directly touched a few areas of Torel and Arbor, and the area of Sword Bay where they are currently located is safe.

"It's troublesome, the magic plague is not an ordinary plague, but a double aberration of energy, matter, body, and even magic in nature!"

Referring to the research she is conducting now, her sister Sanga can't help but frown: "You know, the essence of our world is actually created by primordial magic, and magic not only permeates the sky, atmosphere, earth, and ocean, but even the sky, atmosphere, earth, ocean, and we ourselves are made of magic. As a network that restricts the flow of all free magic in the world, the collapse of the magic net has too great an impact on this world! The plague of magic is actually the disease of our whole world......"

If a world is compared to a person, the magic net is at least equivalent to a person's blood circulation system, once this system collapses, even if it does not cause the destruction of the world, it will inevitably cause harm to the world, thus causing a disease in the world.

"The root cause of the magic plague lies in the collapse of the magic net, in the collapse of the magical operation order rooted in the depths of the world, and in the huge magic cycle and magic order of the entire world! This problem is not something that we mortal mages can completely cure! ”

Sister Sanga sighed and said, "We may be able to use spells to save the lives of one or two people infected by the magical plague, but to cure this kind of disaster, we still need the help of gods or a god of magic!" ”

"The great mission to save the world is not something we should be concerned about!"

Jon didn't care about that, even when he was younger, he wouldn't have had the idea of saving the world, let alone now. Since recovering his long-lost lover, he is satisfied with his current life and just wants to live happily ever after with his harem. Saving the world or something, that's the responsibility of the gods on high.

"We just need to do our own thing, and for me, you are the most important ......"

"Okay, okay! I know that, so you don't need to stress it anymore......"

Sister Sanga doted on Jon, watched him bury his head in her arms like a small milk bear, shook his head, smiled again, and said, "Don't be coquettish, what a person, still like a child!" By the way, I made some discoveries while researching the Plague of Magic, and I might help you fix your spells......"

Not all of those who came into contact with the magical plague were finished, and many of them survived. Just surviving means having to accept some permanent changes.

The creatures that were affected and survived could be divided into two main categories: blight creatures and cursed creatures.

Plague creatures are survivors of plagues who have been greatly altered and distorted, both physically and psychologically. They are like mutated creatures after nuclear radiation, changed by more extreme and crazy forces to create powerful deformed monsters, even the most docile creatures have been transformed into crazy monsters due to the deterioration of their sharp transformation.

However, because the first wave of the plague was so deadly, the plague was so extreme, and the lifespan of the plague creatures was extreme, only a very small number of monsters in this generation survived to this day. In the decades following the end of the Plague of Magic, the vast majority of Plague creatures died during their transitional transitions. And only a few terrifying freak monsters have survived, hiding in various corners of the world.

Cursed creatures, on the other hand, are infected by people who are too close to the plague land, which is also a physical or psychological aberration.

However, although this mutation is a disease and a disaster, it will miraculously bring magical power to the infected person, the curse scar appears in the form of jagged blue flames, which can erupt from the forearm or palm with the will of the cursed creature, these blue flame-like halos are the distorted magical energy, although not as stable as when the magic net exists, but it can still be used to cast some strange spells.

So, while the magical plague is an extremely dangerous existence. But because spells can also bring magical powers. Therefore, many casters who have lost their ability to cast spells, but are particularly hungry for magical power, will not hesitate to risk their lives and actively contract the plague in order to obtain this distorted magical energy.

In addition to how to heal the blighted creatures, the topic of her sister Sangar's research is how to obtain the power of the curse as gently as possible. After all, this kind of magical power that burns with blue flames is an extremely tempting thing for many spellcasters who have lost their magical powers.

"You mean this power? I've tried! ”

Jon looked up, smiled softly, and then raised a hand, only to see a flaming blue rune appear on the back of his hand, weaving into a pattern of dark blue wings of flames.

"I've tried it, and the power of the scar is actually part of a distorted web. Although the magic web has collapsed, its basic module still exists, and it has only been completely stirred up by the rage of magical energy! It's a messy mess of twine! If you have enough time and strength, you can still clear them up! ”

After the collapse of the magic web, countless mages are researching new ways to cast spells. The mages who had taken refuge in the New World, under the protection of the Lord of War, cooperated with the elven mages, and after combining the elves' high magic, they developed a spell-casting system centered around an artificial magic core, which was called the "Magic Core Mage".

Jon, the Grand Arcanist, and some of the mages of the Old World, they took a different path. They tried to draw on the magical blood and innate patterns of dragons and magical creatures, and combined them with the knowledge of the mage's maze to create a miniature version of the magic web that could be used by the mage personally.

As a Grand Arcanist, Jon has his own source of power, being able to access primordial magic of his own volition, and will not completely lose the power to manipulate magical energy due to the collapse of the magic web. But after losing the magic net, he also lost most of the magic net spells, and he could no longer cast spells at will as he did in the past.

However, this is both a crisis and an opportunity. In the past, because of the existence of the Goddess of Magic, no one was able to delve into the web itself. And now that the goddess of magic has lost its dominance, the raging Collapse Web is the best object for spellcasters to study.

With the arcane fire of the Grand Arcanist as the core, weaving a miniature magic net that belongs only to oneself is an extremely rebellious act in the past, but now there is not only one mage conducting this kind of research!
