Volume 1 The Elven Priest Chapter 10 Introduction to Magic
Aethra had left, with something else in her hands.
After dinner, the night became even thicker, and even the elves called the Night Dependents, with the exception of a few sentinels in charge of guarding, were now mostly ready to sleep.
In the entire elven tribe, there are only a few sparse rooms, and the dim light from the magic lamp is still dancing at this time.
After all, the only people who can sleep with peace of mind are those ordinary elves whose lives have not changed much, and those who are responsible, not to mention sleeping, even the time when they close their eyes must be precisely planned.
Whether it's Simon, the head of the clan, or Aethra, who is thoughtful, they still have a reason not to sleep at this time.
Similarly, Yi Fan, who was nominally an elven oracle, hadn't slept yet, because he still had a lot of things to deal with.
"Baroque, according to what you said, even if the opponent is a high-level swordsman or a high-level magician, you have a way to solve it, right?" Yi Fan's face was not unconvinced.
The whole afternoon of talking with Aethera made the relationship between the two more intimate, and even Baroque, who had been acting as a spectator, now began to tease Yi Fan that the girl elf liked him.
But in addition, the more meaningful thing about that conversation is that it gives Yi Fan a clearer understanding of the power system of this world.
In addition to the specific division of individual special races in the whole continent, most of them are still divided into levels according to whether they are practicing martial arts or magic, different martial arts and magic have different titles, skipping the entry apprentice level, like swordsmen, they are generally divided into swordsmen, swordsmen, and sword saints three levels, and magicians are divided into three levels: magicians, magicians, and magic masters, and each level is subdivided into three levels of junior high school and high school, and there are occasionally special levels such as great swordsmen and great magicians between the two levels. And under this, there is a more detailed division, but there is no longer a clear distinction between strengths.
Although in the mouth of the Baroque, swordsmen who have not reached the level of Sword Master, and magicians who have not reached the level of Magus are only weak, but in essence, ninety-nine percent of the people on the continent, even if they are extremely poor, may not be able to break through the lowest level, and even many people will not be able to step into the door of magic because of their talent in their lives.
Therefore, as long as the level of the two reaches the advanced level, they are actually considered very powerful existences in the local area, and like Aethera, who reached the level of a high-level magician when he was more than ten years old, he will be crowned as a genius.
But in the same way, just as Aethera still doesn't have much combat power when he reaches the level of a high-level magician, according to the way magic power and fighting energy are used, magicians and martial artists actually have a detailed division of professions, but for the current Yi Fan, those things are still too far away.
"I said, who do you think is the person who said that to you? I am the strongest race in the continent, the strongest magician, let alone advanced, even if they are all sword saints or mages, I can ......" Speaking of the back, Baroque's words gradually became unconfident, after all, with his current state, it was already a little difficult to deal with the sword master and mage level.
"Huh, okay, Baroque, now you can tell me how to practice orthodox magic, right?" Since black magic is a taboo existence, even if there is a free teacher in his body, Yi Fan does not plan to touch it for the time being.
I don't know why, Yi Fan vaguely felt that the black magic he created was very likely to be more powerful than what the king of black magic in his body knew.
And after talking to Acerla, Yi Fan also understood more deeply how important strength is if he wants to survive in this kind of world, so he can't wait to become stronger.
The Baroque could have been able to crisscross the continent many years ago, and did not take the royal emperors of various countries into account, all because of his strength. And people who have no strength can only become the foil at the bottom of society, without dignity and sense of existence, and life and death are in the hands of others, just like domestic animals that live in order to wait for death.
"This can be fine, but magic itself is not as simple as these two words, even the most basic classification, there are six categories: fire, water, earth, wind, light, and darkness, if you don't have a clear direction, it's difficult to have attainments in magic. Although Baroque is powerful, he is used to being a loner before his death, and he actually doesn't have much experience as a teacher, so when Yi Fan asked, he didn't know how to explain it for a while.
What's more, when he noticed that Yi Fan seemed to be hiding some secrets, he himself was doubting whether there was a problem with the general education method.
"Then tell me about the characteristics of these six types of magic. Yi Fan's heart began to get a little excited, after all, when he came into contact with something strange and desirable like magic, that feeling was the same as when he first watched EI Micro under the temptation of his dead friend.
"Ah, how to say this, the fire element, generally gives people the feeling of destruction and destruction, after all, Salman, the king of the fire element, has always been a militant, and if the water element, it tends to be softer, and the jade of the water element is really gentle......" Baroque, who had no teaching experience, began to tell Yi Fan a brief analysis of the characteristics of the elements that were obviously not the focus.
"It's all ordinary features. The answer was obviously in stark contrast to Yi Fan's expectations at the beginning, so after listening to Baroque's words, he couldn't help but feel a little interested, "Speaking of which, those so-called elemental masters also live on the same continent as us?"
Judging from Baroque's tone, he seemed to be quite familiar with these elemental masters, so Yi Fan couldn't help but have some suspicions that this guy was the real dark elemental master.
However, what Yi Fan didn't know was that although Baroque was the king of dark magic, the dark element that black magic needed to harness had nothing to do with the master of the dark element, after all, one encompassed all the darkness, and the other was just the opposite of pure light.
"How is that possible, you must know that the huge power contained in each elemental lord is enough to affect the basic structure of the entire continent, if they really exist on this continent, then the world has long been destroyed I don't know how many times, and the other elemental lords can still say, the two of light and dark, if they don't fight hundreds of fights every day, they will be uncomfortable!" Baroque said in a non-joking tone.
"They, they usually live in a special space called the Elemental World, and only occasionally under the summons of some super powerhouses on the continent will they descend on the continent as clones, and the reason why I know them is also because those few light envoys summoned them all at once when dealing with me. ”
Hey, let's say those guys are your enemies, thank you for the introduction with an acquaintance's expression on your face just now! Yi Fan couldn't help but show a speechless expression while feeling ashamed of his previous guess in his heart.
"Haha, but that's all they call the Lord of the Elements, except for the Lord of the Dark Elements, Des can barely fight me, the others are just a few more than a few!" Baroque's tone was full of arrogance, completely forgetting that he had just said earlier, that these Lord of the Elements descended on the continent and were just clones.
"By the way, you seem to have just said that these are just the most basic classifications, so what other classifications are there!" Although it is not that he despises these magics, among them is the wind attribute and fire attribute magic Yi Fan is also very interested, but when he thinks of the bosses of several elements, it seems that he has had some trouble with the Baroque, so he can only think about it to see if there is any other way out.
"When it comes to other categories, the main ones are ice, thunder, nature, and non-elemental, because most of these elements are variants of those basic elements, and there is no specific elemental master as a medium for mana output, so there are many fewer people who are willing to learn and can use it. ”
"I probably told you earlier that when a magician uses magic, he uses his magic to resonate with natural elements to complete the release of magic, which is indeed no problem for the release of ordinary magic. ”
"But when the power and scope of magic increases, it is no longer enough to rely on the natural elements of the spell casting, and if you want to achieve the predetermined release effect, the magician must pay a certain price to connect this world with the elemental world, and borrow the power of the elemental world to achieve the effect. This is why large-scale magic releases require the setting up of magic arrays and the preparation of magic items, and the key to connecting the two worlds is whether you have enough power to sign a contract with the elemental masters of the elemental world, so that they are willing to act as a medium for the transmission of magic between the two worlds. ”
At this time, Baroque probably finally found a trick to be a teacher, so without waiting for Yi Fan to ask him questions, he continued to explain a lot.
"Without the Lord of the Elements, it will be very difficult to release ultra-high-level magic, and because of this, the types of magic I mentioned above, except for those who can't use it themselves, even if they can practice, there are very few people who are willing to practice, and among them, there are very few magicians who can really cultivate to the level of a strong man, and it is even more difficult to encounter one in hundreds of years if they cultivate to the level of a great magister. ”
"And if it's not in a specific environment, the higher the level, the weaker they will be when facing opponents of the same level, for example, an ice mage at the level of a mage, if it is not a glacier or a snow field, the strength may be similar to that of a mage. However, they also have a slight advantage, that is, in the case of similar strength, their strength will increase even more with the help of geographical advantages, for example, the lightning mage in the thunderstorm is often much stronger than the water mage of the same level in the ocean. ”
"And before their level is not very high, those who cultivate the ice and thunder system are also more powerful than those of other departments!" At this moment, Yi Fan suddenly interjected.
"Well, how do you know?" Baroque reacted suddenly.
"It's very simple, because there is no good thing, how can anyone in the world be willing to do it!" Yi Fan was already lying on the bed while speaking, "Speaking of which, why didn't you mention this system of magic just now?"
