Chapter 16: A tearing headache
Clive looked at Valen and said in his heart that this kid is really smart, and took out a book from his arms: "These are the most basic formations, and the formations recorded in them are all simple formations that increase the ability of attack and defense. ”
Valen happily took the book and turned the first page to write the origin of the formation.
Legend has it that in ancient times, although there was a profession of magician, it did not have such a high status as it does now, as we all know, each level of magician can only use the same level of magic once, and the high-damage magic chanting time is simply long and scary.
At that time, it was not the two major empires now, and there may be some small countries around it that don't have to worry about the climate, they were all small countries at that time, and there were constant wars all year round, and it was likely that when the two armies were at war, the magic was ready to be completed when it was extremely stale, and at that time it was clear that the enemy and the enemy were clear, unless it was when the fish died and the net was broken, the country with the magician would put a magic, although the low-level magician had, but even if it was a third-level magic fire python, as long as there was an extremely hard shield defense, the magician was an ornament.
This situation has been maintained for a full hundred years, until five hundred years ago, three geniuses appeared, just like the current three heroes, they have become ninth-level magicians in the year they were established, but these three are not satisfied with the status quo and still carry out this magic research, after a series of coincidences, they found that drawing such a figure on the ground has a terrible effect, and it consumes very little mental power. Since then, the status of a magician has risen to the sky.
Although wars rarely happen now, once they do, as long as a sixth-level magician is dispatched and a composite formation is drawn, the average small force of a few hundred people can solve it. Of course, you still need a little guard, after all, the enemy won't give the mage time to spend the formation, and he still needs the help of his teammates.
Valen turned to the next page, and the radius only needed thirty centimeters for the first-level attack formation, which looked very simple. Wallen looked at the request of this small picture with some disapproval, picked up a branch from the corner, stood in the center of the circular bunker and drew it in a pattern. However, a question arose as Valen painted, he didn't seem to use his mental power?
After all, it was just a small picture, and it was quickly drawn, and Valen looked at the formation he had drawn with a small sense of accomplishment, and looked at Clive's smile that had not yet been raised.
There was no appreciation on Clive's face, only helplessness.
Am I drawing it wrong? Valen looked back and forth between his own picture and the picture in the book, as if there was no difference.
Clive said loudly: "Valen, do you think that mental power is only used to maintain the formation, so I let you recover your mental power?"
"Isn't it?" Valen seemed to realize something, and perhaps he had misunderstood.
Clive radiated his spiritual power, picked up the branch and pointed to various places in the formation and said: "Here, obviously offset the inside, here, this hook is obviously too much, connected to the characters next to it, here is obviously two halves and three, but you directly drew three halves, and here, here・・・・・・・"
Clive pointed to many places on the formation with a branch that seemed to have no mistakes, and the moment Valen felt Clive's spiritual power, he seemed to understand the use of spiritual power, thinking about the use of spiritual power that he was still self-righteous just now, and he made a fool of himself.
Valen's face was panicked, Clive knew that he didn't make it clear, in fact, he also had some mistakes, obviously he didn't make it clear, so he let Valen practice.
"The human eye obtains information, the brain processes the information and transmits it to the limbs, and the behavior of the limbs cannot avoid mistakes in any way, even if you think that the painting is perfect, there will be some differences, so you need the assistance of mental power. When you draw a formation, the mental power must completely cover the range of the formation you draw, and each stroke needs to be checked and modified by the mental power, as long as the mental power is slightly offset, it will tell you that you have drawn it wrong. ”
In other words, you can directly use your brain to test right and wrong. After listening to the conclusion, Clive smiled with satisfaction: "You can try again." ”
Valen shook the picture apart with a slight jump, following Clive's steps.
First released the spiritual power, slowly covering the ground within a radius of thirty centimeters, a picture seemed to appear in front of him, Valen happily lifted the branch and pressed it on the first point of the formation, and swiped it gently・・・・・・
"Ahh Clive was not surprised at Valen's strange appearance, but just asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"In my mind, my mental power, where I was condensed・・・・・・ seemed to tremble. Valen said intermittently, he himself was actually a little unsure, and his mental power would tremble, but this throbbing sensation was like a small hammer beating on the mental power that was resting in his mind.
"It's that you're being too tough. Clive said, "When your mental power covers the ground, it is also when your mental energy is extremely concentrated, and any slight movement at this time will cause your mental power to be unstable. ”
After hearing this, Valen looked dazed, and muttered in his heart: What does this have to do with my headache.
Clive continued: "Now your spiritual power seems to be a transparent extremely thin piece of paper, when your branch is stuck in the paper of spiritual power, if you don't move, you will be surrounded by its gentleness, once you move, your branch is like a sharp blade tearing this transparent paper apart, this kind of headache If you don't feel it once, you won't remember the lesson." ”
"How many times have you been hurt, teacher?"
"You kid. Clive opened his hand to fight, and Valen covered his head and smiled.
"You have to remember that mental power can only be used to check and assist in the formation of your formation, you have to imagine that there is a hole on this one that can move freely, and this hole can follow your branches back and forth, neither touching nor moving away, guiding the formation of this formation. ”
Valen nodded as if he didn't understand, it seemed to mean that the branches didn't touch the spiritual power, and at the same time, the mental power had to be used to check the correctness of the formation at close range・・・・・・ so difficult!
Valen groaned in his heart, and in an instant, the fire of his passion for becoming a magician had subsided a lot, and that feeling of pain would have to be experienced a few more times.
Clive looked at Valen's depressed expression and knew what Valen was thinking, remembering that he seemed to have such thoughts at that time, if it weren't for the teacher's persecution and dream of becoming a magician, and the company of two friends, I'm afraid it would be difficult to persevere, speaking of which, Valen also has a friend, named ・・・・・・ Charles?
