15. How Legends Are Made
It's a familiar cot again, the blue roof still has some signs of worn, and when he opened his eyes, Toth knew that he was in Orris's treatment room again, although he had planned the location of the clinic in the town, but for some reason, Orris still liked this little blue tent. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Motionless, Toth reluctantly found that since he arrived in the town, he had been lying here much longer than in other places, and fortunately, the high-level mages had a very low dependence on food, otherwise it would not be much better if he didn't starve to death.
In addition to the headache, all the sensations in the body have become more sluggish than ever, this situation of not being able to feel the magic power makes Toth very uncomfortable, but fortunately, this time the mental power can still be used, a little divergence, not too strong, will be enough for Orris to recognize it from the noisy magic vibration.
"Are you awake?" Orris's voice came from outside the tent, "Have you checked yourself?"
Toth frowned and nodded slightly, his stiff body prevented him from making big movements, so he didn't know if Orris could feel his movements across a layer of tent. When Orris had finished treating the wounded townsfolk and helped him up, Toth found that he had a gray-black metal ring inlaid with silver wires on his wrists and ankles.
"Toth......" Orris moved a chair and sat on the edge of the bed, seeing Toth's eyes focused on the restraint ring on his wrist, he explained, "At that time, you suddenly went berserk, and we can only do this. ”
Binding Rings, a set of shackles with added Broken Stones, are commonly used to hold creatures that use magic. It was impossible for the Demon Breaker Dagger to stay on Toth's body forever, and once the dagger was removed, the pacified magic particles would riot again, and although it would be a huge burden on Toth's body, they decided to put a restraint ring on him.
"Good thing you didn't add the collar as well. Toth shook his head to show that he didn't mind this kind of thing that only prisoners and slaves would be forced to wear, Auris tried to take off the metal ring of his left hand for him, and his perception of magic was restored little by little, and after reaching a normal level, it continued to strengthen until it was out of control, the skin and muscles of his entire left arm quickly became transparent, dense blood vessels and white bones were clearly visible, and after seeing the dim light appear, Toth asked Auris to put a restraint ring on him again.
"It's amazing that your bones aren't pure white. After thinking about it for a long time and still not coming to a conclusion, Auris suddenly remembered the black and white bone of Toth he had just seen, and the healer's instinct made him very curious.
Thoth snorted, not intending to answer his question, looking at his arm as if remembering something - yes, when he was still in the Mage Tower, the appearance of that elf when he used the forbidden spell was very similar to this form! Regardless of his extremely weak body, he asked Auris to give himself a simple treatment, and after he could move, he hurried to the mage tower in Bakus.
When mages use magic and elements, they can clearly feel that they seem to have surpassed themselves at a certain moment, as if they can perceive everything, which is a mysterious phenomenon that only a very small number of talented people among mages can experience, generally after high-level mages, and a few geniuses will experience it when they are middle-level mages, which is called the spirit body, and the spirit body can obtain a strong elemental affinity and spell use ability. But stepping into this state, the mage's mental power will face a huge test, and if there is a slight mistake, the consciousness will be taken away by the magic particles and become a walking corpse, and the mage who can freely control this state can be called a legendary mage.
Thinking back to the chapter in the Encyclopedia of Magic that introduced the legendary mage, Toth scolded secretly and quickened his pace, whether the legendary mage could control this state He didn't know, he only knew that his situation was very dangerous now. This state has been reached before, but only for a short time, so that I didn't react to this situation for a while.
When Toth arrived at the door of the Mage Tower, Bacus, who received the news, had been waiting for a long time, and he didn't say much when he saw Toth coming, and welcomed Toth into the tower to remove the binding ring for him, and then directly activated the magic array of the Mage Tower to cut off his connection with the magic particles, "I will gradually untie the constraints now, and tell me after reaching the normal level of magic control." ”
The last time the elements were isolated by this mage tower was not long ago, at that time, although the two were not hostile, but it was impossible to have in-depth communication, now the two of them can sit together and study the problem, thinking of what happened during this time, Toth sighed.
Feeling that the magic particles on the connection had almost reached the limit, Toth signaled that he could stop, and then beckoned, summoned the magic book on the table, and felt it carefully, and after repairing his soul, his mental power skyrocketed, and now he can only control less than half of the magic power. Unleashed a simple illumination technique and began to analyze his physical condition.
"The magic particles are a little bit more transformed, a little harder, man. The sound of the spellbook echoed in his head, not alerting Bacchus.
"Boy, you're too messy. Looking at the data obtained, Bacus showed his reproach in front of Toth for the first time, "Look at the curve of your body transformation, the biggest change was two months ago, it should be the time when you were seriously injured and picked up by Tias and them, this time it is almost half of your body." After that, this fluctuation more than a month ago, looking at these three peaks, it is probably those three forbidden spells. ”
The degree of magic transformation refers to the degree to which the magician is transformed by magic particles in the process of using magic, and when excessive magic power is not used for a long time, the degree of transformation will slowly recover. For mages, the higher the degree of transformation, the more powerful the spells used, and the more mental power is required. Therefore, the practice and use of magic by mages are calculated to prevent the degree of transformation from being too high and the mental power cannot keep up.
After three peaks, the curve representing the degree of transformation did not go down, but continued to rise, is there a sequelae of the forbidden spell?
He was worried now, not entirely because of the excessive degree of transformation, although it was impossible for this level of transformation to be automatically reduced, but more because he was wondering why he had left these things out, which was completely impossible for a mature mage.
It was then that Thoth realized the effect of his age of sixteen, and strictly speaking, he was now just a sixteen-year-old mage with the memories of Thoth Mar!
"It's not impossible" Bacchus threw Toth a Rubik's cube, one of the inconspicuous gadgets Toth showed that day, smiling like an old fox, "Go to the Mage Guild, Master Anthony is waiting for you." Leave it to us here. ”
"Anthony?" Toth was stunned, remembering the meeting with the legendary mage that day, this degree of physical transformation would definitely not be ignored, but Anthony not only did not say a word to remind him, but used his spiritual appearance to distract him, and remembered that he had been using Celia to scare himself, "Was it really discovered in the first place? ”
"Can you not go?"
"Yes, you can wear a restraint ring here for the rest of your life. ”
"What else?"
"Oh? besides?" Andre smiled and squeezed out four big words:
"Become a legend!"
