Chapter 347 [Spiritual Power]
He Ping played with the magic lamp in his hand with great interest, this is the first magic prop he successfully made, although it is very simple, only the most common lighting function, only two magic arrays, one lighting magic array, one control magic array, these two magic arrays are simpler than the other, lighting is only the most basic light magic, and the control magic array is just equivalent to a switch, only responsible for controlling whether the magic crystal provides magic power to the magic array of lighting.
After all, if an elf wants to become an alchemist, he will definitely deliberately exercise his mental power, and before the spiritual power reaches a certain level, he will not rashly engrave the magic array, not even an apprentice, at most, he will use an ordinary pen or even just a wooden stick, try to draw a picture on paper or on the ground, if he wants to become an apprentice, if he wants to try to engrave the magic array himself, he must improve his spiritual power to a certain extent.
The same is true of magic power, although alchemists don't need too much magic power, but when using a carving pen to engrave magic arrays, they still need magic power output, and they need continuous output of magic power, a simple magic array can be completed with only a few strokes, and it does only need a small amount of magic power, but complex magic arrays can not be completed in a short period of time, so many lines need to be completed under the continuous output of magic power, and in the end, the total amount of magic power required is not a small amount.
Of course, the magic is not irremediable, some mental power is strong, but the alchemist with very general magic will use some external forces to help himself, for example, when engraving the magic array, put a bottle of magic potion with a straw next to it, and then in the process of engraving the magic array, slowly suck the magic potion, so that his magic power can be replenished, but this method is a bit of a palliative but not a cure, after all, the magic contained in the magic potion is not your own magic power, and it is not something that can be used by drinking.
If the spiritual power is not strong enough, relying on the magic power absorbed by this method will not only not help the engraved magic array, but will also make the engraving fail because the output of the magic power is difficult to control, therefore, this is not the way that ordinary alchemists can use, only some senior alchemists with very strong mental power will use similar methods to supplement their magic power when engrave some very complex magic arrays.
There is no problem with He Ping's mental power and magic power, such as a small object like a magic table lamp, if it weren't for the distraction of some trivial things like the first attempt just now, He Ping's success rate is definitely infinitely close to one hundred percent, but there is nothing to show off, after all, the magic table lamp is just an ordinary magic prop for life, this kind of thing, usually the product of apprentices' practice, the output and demand are very large.
After playing for a while, He Ping also lost interest in the magic lamp, he began to recall the state when he engraved the magic array just now, concentrated, and continued to maintain a certain strength of output magic, there can be no distraction, the output of magic power can not have too many ups and downs, the entire process of engraving the framework of the magic array must be completed in one go, there can be no pause in the middle, let alone take the tip of the engraved pen away from the appliance, otherwise, when the magic power is supplied to the magic array, The magic power will not be able to run smoothly according to the lines of the magic array, and the magic array will naturally not be able to exert its effect.
I have to say that making magic props and engraving magic arrays, this is a good way to exercise mental power, you need to maintain the concentration of mental power at all times, and you need to control the magic power very finely, maintain such a state, the consumption of mental power is very large, like the average alchemist apprentice, if you engrave the magic array continuously, even if it is a simple magic array like illumination, at most, it will be impossible to continue by continuously engraving three or five at a time.
Mental power is consumed more gently like this, and every time it is consumed in the case of concentrating mental power, coupled with a very fine control of magic power, this method is of great help to the growth of mental power, the most important thing is that the consumption of mental power like this will not bring too much sequelae, and the gentle depletion of mental power will only make people feel tired, but if you forcibly and quickly deplete mental power in battle, it is likely to cause a splitting headache or even unconscious.
However, during this period of time, He Ping also discovered a phenomenon, that is, although the elves also know that the alchemist's mental power consumption method is very helpful for exercising mental power, but in fact, there are very few elves who focus on this aspect, except for full-time alchemists and researchers, only some elf warriors whose magic talent is not good, but can barely join the army, and some elves like Lian Enshet, who want to improve their combat effectiveness through various ways will be used.
Most of the elven warriors and elven magicians, if they usually have the energy to exercise their mental power in this way, they will choose to practice magic to make their magic level higher, even if the magic talent is average, through the same amount of time of practice, the rise of magic power is much lower than the rise of spiritual power, and the elves are also tired of it, and it is the same when fighting, most elves are very bold and wanton to sway their magic power.
It is precisely because of this general trend that Lianenchet will become an outlier, Lianenshet's magical talent is average, although it is stronger than most elven warriors, and even most unicorn knights, but it is much worse than those top-level masters such as members of the Praetorian Guard, and if you look at the magic alone, Lianenshet can reach the level of unicorn knight is already the limit, and it is difficult to further promotion.
However, it is precisely because of her magical talent that she is average, and she wants to obtain higher combat effectiveness, so she will start from all aspects, since magic is not good, then you have to think of other methods, although skill is one of them, but without mental power, the learning and use of skills can not be skillfully controlled, therefore, Lian Enchet has been deliberately exercising mental power before meeting He Ping, and the proportion of cultivation time is not low.
And after He Ping became Lianenshet's mentor, he naturally discovered this, Lianenshet's magic power is equivalent to the middle and upper members of the Unicorn Knights, but her mental power is quite strong, coupled with her original skills, so that her combat power can reach the top of the Unicorn Knights, and since He Ping began to teach Lianenshet, in addition to some things He Ping learned from various places such as skills, she has never slackened her mental power training.
The current Lianenxuet's spiritual power level is of course incomparable to He Ping, as well as the elven kings and elders, as well as those top-level alchemists and magicians, but compared to the members of the Praetorian Guard, it is already a little surpassed, and even compared to the elite magicians, Lianenxuet's spiritual power level is only high, not low, such a level of spiritual power, it can be said that becoming an alchemist is more than enough.
He Ping has already seen that although Lianenshet's magic power cannot be said to have reached the limit now, it has at least reached a bottleneck, and it may be improved in the future, but the amplitude will not be too large, and the increase in combat power is not much, and if you want to continue to improve your combat effectiveness, you must start from other aspects, spiritual power is very peculiar, if there is no other power, spiritual power itself is useless, just like Iverios, whose mental power is strong, but without magic power, he is still just a weak person who is powerless.
But the talent and bottleneck of spiritual power are more vague, almost everyone, as long as the method is appropriate, can continue to increase spiritual power, and once other powers are added, spiritual power will become quite useful, therefore, He Ping at this time, finally completely decided on the training plan for Lianenshet, skills, just auxiliary, in his opinion, Lianenshet's most critical ability should be spiritual power, so, under He Ping's instructions, Lianenshet began his career as an alchemist......
