Chapter 29: The Trials (I)

Shiloh smiled mysteriously and said, "Spiritual power and magic power are different, they are something that everyone has. ”

"Then what's the use of this spiritual power?" Rodrith was immediately interested when he heard this.

"As the name suggests, mental power can reflect the level of activity in a person's brain, which can affect various behaviors. Shiloh patiently explained, "The reason why your mental power has reached the level of a mid-level mage is determined by the speed at which your mana is restored. ”

"You mean, my mana regenerates quickly?" the magic apprentice seemed to understand what Shiloh meant.

"Take the Fireball Technique, for example, you can already release two blue flames with both hands at the same time, right?"

"Although the Fireball Technique is a low-level magic, it is much more difficult to release with one hand than with both hands. Shiloh paused, then continued, "According to the results of the assessment, the mana required to gather two blue flames has exceeded the upper limit of your own mana. ”

"Then why can I still release two fireballs at the same time with one hand?" said Rodrith, his hands lit up with flames, and the blue light reflected on Junxiu's face.

"That's because when you released the fireball technique, you inadvertently activated the spiritual power in your body.

In other words, while you condense your magic power, the spiritual power in your body accelerates the recovery speed of your magic power.

As a result, some of the lost mana is canceled out, so that you can release magic that exceeds the upper limit of your own mana. ”

This kind of low-level fireball technique seems to be instantaneous magic, but in fact there is a process of gathering mana, but the time is short enough to be ignored.

"I see...... In other words, even though I haven't passed the formal mage's assessment, my ability has actually reached the level of a mid-level mage?"

Shiloh shook his head and said with a wry smile: "That's not the case, the stability of your magic release and your own magic level are still very poor. Even if the mental power is not bad, on the whole, it is still only at the level of a magic apprentice. ”

"Cut, it's boring!" said Rodrith with a roll of his eyes.

"If you can get rid of your acuteness, I guarantee that you will be able to become a full-fledged magician in less than a month. Shiloh gave Rodrith a meaningful look.

"Really?!" the magic apprentice seemed to see a glimmer of hope again.

"Mental power is a delicate thing, and if you can use it well, it will have unexpected effects in actual battles. ”

"Then you can teach me how to use mental power now!" asked Rodrith eagerly.

——

"How's it going, are you alright?" Owen looked a little worried.

"No, it's fine. Loras closed her eyes and adjusted her breath for a moment before she returned to normal.

Owen pointed to the dummy not far away and said, "Ellie, you can go to the side and practice first." ”

Ellie nodded, walked to the other side of the courtyard, took a bow and arrow from the quiver, and began to aim at the dummy's head.

"Your strength level is acceptable, but you really don't have an advantage among swordsmen. Judging from the sword just swung, there are also obvious flaws. Owen said as he removed a spear from the weapon rack and turned back to Loras.

"Try this!"

Loras was stunned for a moment, and said, "Teacher, but I've never used this kind of weapon." ”

"You don't have the physical strength to do it, but you're good at agility, and you should be more suited to more skillful weapons like spears. ”

Loras took the spear from Owen, the weapon he always used was the sword. At this moment, he held the body of the spear, which was twice as long, and the touch from the palm of his hand made him very uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Owen chuckled lightly and said, "If you want to master the skills of using the spear, the prerequisite is that the body must have good flexibility. ”

Loras knew this, of course, but spears and swords were very different in shape, and the methods used were very different.

"Don't worry, I'll start with the basics. Isn't Brandon in the history of the Hugo family also a strong man with a spear?" Owen patted Loras on the shoulder.

The technical tactics of the spear are characterized by "fast", focusing on both virtual and real, and combining rigidity and softness.

When making moves, it is unstoppable, and virtual and real are born together.

The retracement is swift as the wind, steady and atmospheric.

Owen removed another spear from the rack, moved himself, and began formal instruction.

Loras looked intently at Loras's hands: his left hand was a third of the way through the shaft, and his right hand was on the tail of the spear.

I saw Owen shouting loudly and swinging sideways.

"There are three basic skills of the spear – picking, stabbing and sweeping. As soon as the words fell, Owen's body moved, and he saw the tip of the gun in his hand burst out, stopped abruptly in mid-air, and then rose upward, and the whole person jumped into the air!

"Thorn!" Owen roared, the spear in his hand was slightly retracted, and then stabbed down with lightning speed, and a large hole was blasted out in the ground!

Ellie was startled when she heard a loud bang behind her.

"Sweep!" The blow was so powerful that dust suddenly flew around it. Owen didn't stop, but stabilized his body, quickly pulled out the spear, and swept forward with all his strength!

The barrel of the gun whirred as it moved at high speed, and the dust was cut away by the blow and dissipated instantly.

The flat stab then rises, stabs from the top down, and then the flat dance sweeps.

The three styles are in one go, and Owen fully demonstrates the advantages of the spear's strong explosiveness and large attack range.

Loras was already dumbfounded, he didn't expect that just the most basic combo could have such a huge effect.

"You can practice on your own, starting with the most basic spikes. ”

Owen smiled slightly, beckoned to Ellie in the distance, and said, "Girl, it's your turn." ”

Ellie agreed, pulled out the bow and arrow from the dummy, and walked over to Owen.

"You're aiming in a standard position, and there's nothing to correct. The power may be a little lacking, so it is necessary to strengthen the strength of the arms. Owen expressed his opinion based on what Ellie had just practiced, and the overall rating was not bad.

"Thank you, teacher~" Ellie saw that she had been recognized by Owen, and her mood suddenly became much more relaxed.

"However, this is only for your current level, if you want to take your strength to the next level, this strength alone is far from enough. Owen continued.

The afternoon breeze carried a hint of shade, and the sycamore leaves rustled.

As the sons of prophecy, the four of them have traveled from Willow to Grande, thousands of miles away, and finally started a new life.

The Holy Magician Merlin, the legendary "Dragon Tamer", once said a philosophical quote - "Because it is extraordinary, it is excellent." ”
