Verse 146: Tower of Babel

In addition to the mage robe and mage badge, the church also issued Norman a "Mage Handbook" after passing the one-star black-robed mage qualification examination, which recorded many common knowledge that mages should know, such as ways to increase magic power.

As Norman had guessed, the mages meditated by pouring magic into their sea of magic, allowing the excess to overflow and wash over the edges of the sea of magic. After a long period of mana, the edges of the sea of mana will continue to erode, and then the volume of the sea of mana will increase, and the total capacity of the mage's mana will also increase, which is how the mages expand their mana capacity.

In addition, the route to the Tower of Babel is also recorded.

The Tower of Babel in the middle of the Sea of Magic doesn't just serve as a decoration, it really serves as an instantaneous spell.

According to the Mage's Handbook, the use of psychic power can engrave spells on the surface of the Tower of Babel, and the spell spells engraved on the Tower of Babel have a unique effect, that is, there is no need to chant a spell, only a thought is needed to consume mana, and it can be sent out instantly.

However, the instantaneous issuance of spells is also required, and it is not necessary to inscribe any part of the Tower of Babel, but to the part that can be covered by magic, that is, below the level of the sea of magic. It's useless to engrave it on it, and it won't work until one day your mana capacity rises enough to cover that spell.

As for when you will be able to engrave the first spell spell on the Tower of Babel and guarantee that you will be completely overwhelmed by magic, the answer is the bottom line of the magic capacity of a one-star black-robed mage, that is, after a mage can pass the one-star black-robed mage qualification examination of the church, he can decide on his first instantaneous spell. However, once this instantaneous spell is engraved, it can no longer be changed, and there is no chance of regretting, so many mages will think long and long when choosing their first instantaneous spell.

Norman too.

The "Mage's Handbook" is quite detailed, not only mentioning these common senses, but even giving some templates and suggestions: according to the "Mage's Handbook", most mages choose protective spells when choosing instantaneous spells, especially in the choice of this first instantaneous spell, most people choose spells like level 1 spell shield or level 1 spell mage armor as their instantaneous spells.

It's not hard to understand that your own life is definitely the most important.

Some of the more offbeat mages also chose some functional spells, such as amplification, but there is really no mention of any mages who chose offensive spells as their first instantaneous spells.

Norman was going to do just that.

In fact, Norman had the same idea as most people before, wanting to wait until he got the spell of the shield spell or the mage armor spell and use this kind of protective spell as his instant spell, but after today's battle, he had a different idea.

The Magic Missile seemed more suitable as his first instantaneous spell, as he was so different from other mages.

First of all, his body is very burly and robust, and his self-healing ability has reached 20 times that of ordinary people, and he does not lack self-defense ability like other mages, so protective spells are not as useful to him as they are for other mages.

Secondly, the magic characteristics of the magic missile just fit with the "Catching the Sea Sutra" that he cultivated, which led to the magic missile he cast could exert extraordinary effects, which made the magic effect of the magic missile increase a lot out of thin air. And being able to instantly cast a level 2 spell is obviously more cost-effective than instantly issuing a level 1 spell.

In the end, all mages subconsciously take protective spells as their first choice for instantaneous spells, or they are also functional, and no one will choose offensive spells to occupy their precious instantaneous spell position, and they do the opposite, so that they may have unexpected effects in future battles.

It was based on these three points that Norman finally decided to use the magic missile as his instant spell.

After entering the meditation space, Norman's mental power moved, and according to the "Mage's Handbook", he concentrated his mind at the very bottom of the Tower of Babel and began to carve it.

Writing spells on the Tower of Babel is not about carving them one stroke at a time, as in reality, but directly meditating on the spells you want to engrave, meditating constantly, and pushing them with mental power, and the spells will emerge on the Tower of Babel bit by bit. This also put an end to the idea that many people want to carve the old saying a little smaller, so that they can hold more spells and more spells on the same Babel surface.

The size of the spell font on the Tower of Babel is only related to the level of the spell you meditate on, and the higher the level of the spell, the larger the font.

Well, it was supposed to be like this, but after Norman meditated hard for a long time, he found that there was no movement on the surface of his Tower of Babel, and the scene where the spell spells mentioned in the "Mage's Handbook" would slowly emerge word by word with the promotion of spiritual power did not appear, and there was still no half of the surface of the Tower of Babel.

Norman looked at this scene and was a little stunned.

What's the situation?

He was also afraid that the spell spell appeared behind the Tower of Babel, so he specially circled around the Tower of Babel and saw every side, but it was true that he did not find any trace of half of the spell.

The magic missile he was in the woods just now had hollowed out his magic power, and now the sea of magic was empty, so it wouldn't obstruct his vision, and there was indeed no trace of the spell, not half of it.

Norman thought for a moment, and unbelievably tried again.

This time it took him longer, and it still didn't change, and half of the ancient words on his Babel still didn't appear.

The long hours of concentrated meditation made Norman's mind a little tired, and the strange situation that was different from the situation recorded in the "Mage's Handbook" distracted him from thinking about what was going on, and he didn't pay attention, and his thoughts were a little scattered.

And it was just like that, and the surface of the Tower of Babel finally changed.

I saw that on a certain surface at the bottom of the Tower of Babel, there was a small horizontal trace!

Norman stared at this little cross, refocused his mind, and after staring at it in a daze for a long time, he thought back to his thoughts just now, and realized something.

In the end, he didn't concentrate on meditating on the incantation as before, but meditated on it according to his guess, and saw movement on the Tower of Babel.

On the previous small horizontal, there is a small vertical.

Norman stopped, stunned.

Didn't he say that it was useless to meditate on the incantation stroke by stroke? Didn't he say that he had to meditate on the incantation directly? Why was it useless for him to meditate on the incantation, but instead it was useful to engrave the incantation with mental power stroke by stroke?!
