"Spell casting gestures?"

There are many sub-branches of magic in the university department, and two of them have already been mentioned in the conversation between the two men: "spells" that strengthen magic by resonating with the magic in the body through pronunciation tremors, and "magic texts" that use a specific flow of energy to achieve magical reactions, in addition to a series of marginal disciplines such as potions that rely on the reactions between different substances to exert their effects......

But unlike the previous ones, the "casting gesture" is not even a border, and has not yet become a discipline - almost every spell in the world has a corresponding spell and script, but gestures do not do this: so far, people have only stumbled upon a few casting gestures and recorded them, but no one has been able to find a pattern, let alone explain it.

Seeing that the other party did not interrupt, Roy continued: "Inspired by your experiment, I suddenly remembered that several theories in the books that try to explain the spellcasting gesture are also superficial and metaphysical, and there must be something wrong - the reason why the casting gesture has been unable to explain the existence of the spellcasting gesture in the past may be due to a misunderstanding of the magic script?"

"What do you mean......" Oshier had already picked up the cup on the table and wanted to moisten his mouth, but when he heard the words, a theoretical breakthrough in one field would inevitably lead to the development of the surrounding fields, but he actually let a little girl think of it first, but after a little thought, he shook his head again: "Do you want to say that the spell casting gesture is to rely on the hands to guide the magic power to form the magic text? But at present, the spell casting gestures are nothing more than simple magic such as fireball magic and telekinesis impact, and the shape of these gestures is not similar to any magic script." If it weren't for that, people would have thought of the connection a long time ago. ”

"I can try to explain it. Roy said unwillingly: "The reason why the gesture seems to have nothing to do with the magic script may be because the magic script formed by the ten fingers of both hands is three-dimensional, or it may be that the extra fingers that are not actually useful in the gesture disturb the judgment, or it may be because of the ...... When casting complex magic, gestures need to change as the spell progresses, rather than fixing one action for one spell!"

"Huh......" O'Shir stared at Roy, his expression becoming serious, and wrinkles began to appear on his face and crawl around, indicating that their owners were racing their brains at the moment. After a few moments, he realized that the girl's explanation really couldn't find anything wrong, and that she might have stumbled upon a new area. "It makes sense, as for whether it's right or not, it's useless to just think about it, you only need to do a few experiments to see it. I will now immediately draft an application and apply to His Majesty the Emperor for another grant...... This experiment does not require a huge amount of materials, just hire a few mages and scholars, and it is not difficult to get approval. ”

In the sky, the dazzling sun had moved from the top of the head to the top of the snowy peak, and the speed of time in the illusion was obviously adjusted extremely fast, and the old and the young exchanged moments about the spell gesture, and the old man's profound knowledge benefited the girl a lot, and the girl's intelligence and studious also left a deep impression on Oshier. The questions she had been trying to solve were solved, and the old mage was about to start preparing the application for the next experiment, so it was time to leave.

......

"Thank you, teacher, I didn't talk to you for a while, but I gained more than I did for months of self-study. Roy asked expectantly, "Can I come back more often in the future to ask some questions?"

"Of course, if you are interested in the next experiment, you can also participate. Oshier said sincerely, picking up the notes on the table: "Take this thing back, keep it safe, the notes of the pioneers of magic research are of great significance." ”

"No, let's put this thing here with the teacher, the content in it is not of much help to me, and it can play a greater role in your hands. ”

"Hmm...... That's fine, I'll keep it for you. O'Hill didn't say much, Finn's research was never classified, and the girl's intention to curry favor with him in order to get closer was obvious, but the temptation for another collection was still too great for him to resist.

"Then teacher, I'm interrupted today, and the students will retire first and go back to continue to preview other content. ”

"Well, may you learn something. ”

The magic illusion continued, and the scenery of the magnificent snow-capped peaks and lakes around him seemed to be unchanged, Roy took his small bag, nodded to Oshier, and walked back the way he came, pushing open the strange wooden door standing in the grass, and leaving the old man's laboratory.

Here, after visiting the first target of the day, the sister got into the carriage to the next place, and at the other end of the city, Rhodes also made an excuse to leave the house and began his own "plan": he had no experience of living alone outside the home, and needed to find an organization to travel and adventure with care.

This is an area close to the city wall in the imperial capital, where outsiders gather. Compared to the residential areas where the city is inhabited, the streets are slightly narrower and dirtier, and the buildings are lower and older. Taverns and inns are the hallmark of this area, and the quality of the décor or even the quality of service does not matter, as long as there is food, drink and a place to sleep, the adventurers and small traders who wander around and live in no fixed place are easily satisfied...... As for entertainment, there are many brothels and casinos half a street away, and as long as you have a little money, you definitely don't have to worry about having nothing to do or no woman to do.

The residents here are diverse, and the largest proportion is mercenaries: mercenaries who have already been hired, mercenaries waiting for their employers, and those who want to become mercenaries...... The streets are littered with weapons carriers with vulgar and irritable manners, and their gathering is very detrimental to law and order. It's hard to imagine that this city is the most powerful capital in the Western Continent just by looking at the scene, but the reality is that every city will have such an area.

City managers have responded by strengthening management, not covering up its presence. As a result, there were almost as many Acropolis soldiers patrolling here as there were on the edge of the Imperial City.

After questioning, Rhodes went to a tavern, stopped in front of the door for a moment, listened to the commotion for a moment, and then pushed the door open and walked in.

......

At several tables in the tavern sat a dozen big men, who were now eating large pieces of meat and pouring large glasses of wine, boasting to each other about their experiences, and laughing even more when talking about women. On the ground next to the stool were their weapons, which seemed to have been useless for a long time...... This is a medium-sized mercenary tavern for Wen Wei, gathering people who have no other skills and plan to fight and risk in exchange for money, as long as they are given money, they are willing to accept most of the work.

If there is enough money, "most" can become "any".

The smell of bad wine and food in the air made Rod frown, and when he entered, he stood in the doorway, looking around the room for something that looked pleasing to the eye.
