Chapter 121: True Magic
With the help of a group of magicians and magicians, the construction of the workshop went even more smoothly this time, and it took only five days for the workshop to be built.
In the process of building the workshop, Murray finally saw for the first time the fundamental difference between a magician and a magician.
First of all, the magicians, when they cast spells, they always summon some magic spirits, and those spirits will assist them and control their magic power.
Most magic elves will absorb some of the magician's mana, and then assist the magician in some creation and modification.
Usually many magicians don't have to do it themselves, and simply rely on those magic elves, who can help them complete almost all the magic.
This method of casting spells was something Murray had never seen before, after all, Murray had never actually seen a magician before.
The two closest to him are witches, and they have won the favor of magic in their own right, and it can even be said that they are magical elves themselves.
Therefore, for them, casting magic is like eating and drinking, and they don't need to rely on magic elves like magicians at all.
As for Augustus, the only magician who is not a witch, he actually used the machinery on his body to transform himself into a magic elf-like magic circle, so as to simply use magic to drive the machine and achieve the spell casting effect of the magic elf.
While watching the magicians and magic elves cast spells, Saria also whispered to Mori to explain: "You see, those magic elves, they are the spirits of nature, just like me, they are favored by the magic gods, for us, even if we magic, magic is us, and magicians will not be affected by the world when they cast magic with the power we have given." ”
Hearing this, Murray asked with some surprise, "You mean, if you replace the magic elves with machines, you will be attacked when you cast magic?"
Salia nodded: "Yes, mechanical spell casting seems to save a lot of processes and make magic more civilian, but in fact, it brings harm that most people don't understand." ”
As he spoke, a young magician suddenly made a mistake and set the spell materials on fire with the wrong hand, and the flames burned the materials almost instantly.
And after it was burned, it seemed that the flames had not subsided, and continued to follow the magic power towards the young magician who cast the spell.
At this critical moment, a smart little guy suddenly jumped out, waving his hands gently, and the flames were quelled in an instant.
The raging flames were quickly quelled, and the little thing turned and jumped onto the young magician's shoulder, reassuring him.
Seeing this scene, Murray was instantly stunned, and suddenly realized that it seemed that the real magic in the West was different from what he thought.
At this time, Saria spoke, "You see? This is the fundamental difference between a real magician and those who use mechanical spellcasting. ”
Murray now understands the so-called fundamental difference, to put it simply, the machines of those mechanical spellcasters are cold, while the magic elves around the real magicians are alive, and the mechanical spells are only used to cast the specified magic according to the system, but with the cooperation of the magic elves, the magician can adjust the spell casting according to some of his own ideas.
In other words, a mage can create infinite possibilities through magic, but a mechanical caster can only cast spells mechanically.
Knowing this, Murray couldn't help but start worrying about the porter, worried that the porter would also encounter such a spell casting problem.
As if she had guessed Mori's thoughts, Saria smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about Augustus, he is actually a magician, and he actually has magic elves around him." ”
Murray was shocked when he heard this: "Really? You mean, Uncle Concierge also has magic elves around him?"
Saria nodded: "Yes, in fact, magic elves are extremely important to every mage, even more important than life, so under unknown circumstances, most mages will not reveal their elves." ”
Hearing this, Murray can also understand, after all, the casual exposure of magic elves is very likely to attract the covetousness of the enemy.
Through direct observation of the magicians in the village, Murray can be regarded as a new understanding of the magical civilization of the West.
Contrary to what I had known before, a magical civilization was actually a civilization that merged with the world and applied to nature.
The elves that give magicians the ability to cast spells are also nature elves, and they are themselves guardians who are born under the rules of nature and maintain the rules.
Pact with those who possess powerful magical powers, and people supply their magic to elves in exchange for a rule-changer.
Of course, such a magician can't do whatever he wants, because if the magician does something too much that the elves can bear, then both the elves and the magician will be punished, and the consequences will most likely be both killed.
It can be said that after the contract is made, the magician and the elf are one, and they are dependent on each other.
Once the magician dies and loses the supply of the magician's magic power, the elves will also pass away, and they will differentiate into elements to feed nature.
Sariya said indifferently: "This can be regarded as a reward for their strength from nature together." ”
When Murray heard this, he suddenly thought of Salia, hesitated for a moment and asked, "What about you?"
Hearing this, Sariya was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "I, I am naturally the same, but the life span of witches is longer, some witches can live for hundreds of years, of course, after we die, we will also incarnate into elements and feed back to the world, as a kind of reward for our power from the world, this is the law of nature." ”
Hearing this, Murray suddenly remembered the sights he had seen in the Dragon Kingdom, and some of the damage caused by those machines.
Westerners will think that the dragon kingdom must have lived a very rich life by creating powerful machines and using them to change nature and the world.
But in fact, it is not what others think, the land of the Dragon Kingdom has naturally been shattered, and the entire kingdom is filled with the aura of destruction.
And the things that maintain the stability of the dragon kingdom are those machines that are deeply rooted in the entire kingdom.
The people of the Dragon Kingdom use the machinery they have made to maintain the world destroyed by the machines, and use the machinery to replace the laws of nature to mediate everything.
However, there is one crucial thing in this way, and that is to become the core of the giant mechanical dragon kingdom itself.
The core of the dragon kingdom machine lies in the dragon's body, but now the dragon has been stolen by the outcast, so the huge machine of the dragon kingdom is now in a very crisis state, and it is also why the dragon kingdom will send people to the west again and again, trying to find the lost dragon, find the dragon back, and let the dragon return to its place to maintain the normal operation of the dragon kingdom.
Thinking of this, Murray also sighed secretly in his heart: I don't know when I will see the dragon, when will I be able to bring the dragon back?
"Smack" Salia patted the dazed Murray and said, "Okay, let's go, take you to see those magicians again." ”
Instantly came to his senses, looked at Saria, and instantly responded with a smile on his face: "Okay, let's go." ”
