Chapter 2: Apprentices Encounter Soldiers, Unclear (Part I)

[I wish you all a happy new year, 2010, the first day, worth commemorating, this book will be written hard, the first time to ask for votes in the chapter]

For the next ten days, Saleen repeated the spell, but not a single one. No matter how perfect and skillful his spells and gestures were, he just couldn't complete this simple level 0 magic.

During this time, Wizard Jason only appeared once, and spent the rest of the time in a large living room converted laboratory. As if he didn't have to eat, he kept experimenting with magic in the room.

Salin was a little anxious, but it was useless to be anxious about learning magic, he could only practice again and again. Finally, in the third ten days, Saleen learned the magic.

He rushed to Jason's magic lab. Seeing Salin's excited appearance, Jason sighed, "You have learned a level 0 magic in 30 days, and your qualifications can be said to be very poor. I suggest you don't continue, or you may end up with an apprenticeship for the rest of your life. ”

Salin froze: "Teacher......"

"Don't you want to, don't you? Let's do an experiment. Jason took out a crystal ball, placed it on the table, and said, "Do a spell on this." ”

Salin quickly performed a reading technique, and the transparent crystal ball barely changed.

Jason put away the crystal ball and said, "It's worse than I thought." Your mental power is very strong, but your elemental affinity is too poor. According to the results of the test, you may not have a chance to advance to the rank of a first-level mage until you are a hundred years old. Salin, if you want, I'll give you a sum of money, go to Skociana City, find a swordsmanship gym, at your age, there may be a way out to learn swordsmanship. ”

It was as if Saleen had been drenched in cold water, and if he hadn't had this opportunity, he might have accepted Jason's suggestion. However, after thirty days of practice, he became addicted to magic. When the first level 0 magic is done in the hands, the pleasant feeling of being in control can no longer be erased from the bones.

Do you want to be a swordsman? Like those guards in Ceylon City, walk up and down the streets every day, block the gates to collect taxes, or go to work as a mercenary, and you can't get a wife in your thirties?

"Teacher, is there no way?" Salin asked inwardly.

"It's not nothing, but even I can't afford it. This is not a problem that gold coins can solve. Unless there is a ninth-level magician willing to help you and transform your physique. Even so, your future achievements will be at most low-level magician, and you won't reach level four. Jason replied helplessly.

"Teacher, I still want to try, I'd rather be a hundred-year-old apprentice than a swordsman. Please teach me the rules of meditation. Salin gritted his teeth. He had a very bad impression of the swordsman, the swordsman in Ceylon City was not decent, and he took Jason's gold to study, who knows what will happen. Having been deceived a lot since childhood, Saleen is a little disappointed in the world.

"If you insist, well, but after learning my meditation rules, you can't leave unless you become a full-fledged magician. ”

"I'm willing to continue. ”

"My meditation method, even in the Qin Yin Empire, is very precious, if you leak it to others, I will take your life, can you understand?" Jason said flatly, and Saleen felt a chill in his heart. He knew that the teacher was definitely not talking casually, if he violated this requirement......

"Where to start?" Jason muttered to himself, a little overwhelmed by what to do when he was taking in students for the first time. In the past, when the teacher taught me meditation principles, I was already a level 2 apprentice and had a lot of basic knowledge. Salin clearly didn't understand anything yet.

"Meditation actually includes meditation, elemental absorption, hypnotism, and spiritual resonance. Ordinary magicians can only learn meditation, while the full set of meditation methods can only be learned by great magicians. The books describe only the individual meditation techniques. By self-study, you will never become a great magician......"

Jason took the trouble to give Salin a make-up lesson from the beginning, and then taught him the same, and it only took Salin half an hour to completely remember Jason's words. Jason also lamented Saleen's cleverness, and at the same time felt sad for him. Such a smart child, but the elemental affinity is abnormally low.

"Okay, I'll tell you all about the meditation rules, you're smart, the books upstairs, just read them in order, meditate at least once a day, maybe it will be good for you. Remember to cook for me once a week, and when the bread was gone, I went to the city to buy it. I'll leave you a gold coin. After you have fully mastered the meditation rules, I have a job to hand over to you. ”

"Yes, teacher. Salin bowed his head and exited the room. He was still young and did not understand that he had chosen an extremely difficult path. There was only excitement in his heart now, as if the door of another world had opened to him. And he didn't know how much it would cost him to enter this door.

Salin went straight to the first room where the books were placed and began to study. The first bookshelf is linguistics, and Salin doesn't even know a few words, so he can only come step by step. The magic of reading is amazing and allows him to teach himself words. The only trouble was that he had to rest for half an hour before he could use it a second time.

In this way, it took Salin a month to finally learn the continental lingua franca, which is the language he now speaks. He wanted to take a look at the books in advance, but found that the magic books in the room were very large, and not all of them were written in the lingua franca, and there were at least more than twenty languages in those bookshelf, and Salin had to learn all the books on the first shelf before he could look down.

Magicians are learned people, and they simply cannot complete the study of magic without reading magic.

Fortunately, in a month's time, Salin finally mastered the meditation method. Now he can perform reading magic twice in a row, and then fully recover in ten minutes.

The magic elements stored in the body of the magic apprentice were pitifully small, and Saleen had even fewer than the average apprentice, but despite this, he was very satisfied. Four huge rooms, each with dozens of large bookshelves and tens of thousands of books, enough for him to read.

He's not in a hurry to make the cut now, he's eager to learn more. Salin patiently studied in order, and there were more than a thousand books on lingua franca, Mels, magic, Qin, Scochenya, Tangulas...... Salin even learned Caucasian language. The Caucasians have never produced a single magician, and the Caucasus is still very primitive, with only priests. However, Salin was already stunned to learn languages, and it took him half a year to master the languages introduced in more than a thousand books.

It was slow at first, but as he recognized more and more words, he learned faster and faster.

By the time he finished reading the last book, he was able to perform reading three times in a row, indicating that he had become a level 2 magic apprentice. Salin didn't know that it was actually because his mental power was very strong, and the loss of magic was too small. Since he was only casting level 0 magic, such loss was even more pitiful, and in fact, the magic elements stored in his body were still only at the level of a level 1 apprentice.

Such a speed cannot be said to be unstoppable, but it is absolutely unprecedented. If ordinary people had cultivated at such a speed, they would have been kicked out of the door long ago. Salin has the best meditation method, and after half a year, he barely improved the storage capacity of the magic elements in his body, and Jason did not perfunctory him, Salin is really not suitable for learning magic.

What follows is magic knowledge, which is still a bookshelf, more than a thousand books. The mystery of the wizarding world is revealed, and Saleen doesn't know how much he can learn, but he believes that hard work will always pay off.

The origin of magic is unknown, but it is generally believed that the magic on the continent of Myers has a history of at least 30,000 years, until it was perfected in the Second Dynasty more than 10,000 years ago, and it was divided into six major systems: earth, water, wind, fire, light, and darkness. Since then, the calendar of the Myers Continent has been perfected, and the year is divided into 12 months, each with 30 days and 6 days as a week. The sixth day of the week is the dark day, which is the rest day of various industries. Even with the fall of the goddess Myers (goddess of nature) and the rise of the Holy See, this habit has not been changed.

The Holy See's calendar is too troublesome, the Holy See thinks that the week should be seven days, and after a hundred years of implementation, the entire continent is still only using the new calendar within the Holy See, and in the end it is still not done.

Apprentices are not limited to level 0 magic before becoming a Level 1 Magician. After advancing to Level 6 Apprentice, a Magic Apprentice can actually learn a Level 1 spell and can complete it. This is the over-level spell within the magic formula, and there is only one chance to over-level casting, and it is not surprising that all magicians can do it.

It's just that after the magician casts the spell beyond the level, he will fall into weakness and almost can't recover himself, and he can only rely on meditation to recover the consumed magic strings.

The magic string is the cornerstone of magic, and without it, a magic apprentice can never advance to the rank of official magician. In order to form a magic string, one must have strong mental power and elemental affinity, and Salen's elemental affinity is very low, so Jason said that he may have to wait until he is a hundred years old to become a magician.

At the rate of Saleen's progress, this is not an exaggeration.

There are detailed descriptions of what the magic string is in various books, but it cannot be unified. What Saleen was able to understand was that the magic string existed in the mage's body, providing the elemental power that provided the mage with the foundation to perform magic. Through continuous training, magic apprentices accumulate magical elements in their bodies, and finally achieve qualitative changes from quantitative changes, which is the process of forming magic strings, that is, from apprentices to formal magicians.

To Salin's discouragement, he had never seen any book mention of forming magic strings in another way, and if he relied on accumulation, he really had no hope of becoming a magician.

After half a year, the kitchen had all the things stored in it, and Saleen knew it was time to go to the city to buy it. He arrives at Jason's lab and tells him he's going into town.

"How's your study?"

"I can already complete three readings in a row. "Salin puts the word 'three' very seriously, hoping to get the teacher's attention.

"Alright, there you go. Jason didn't say anything more, just gave Saleen another five gold coins. Saleen's progress was a little faster than he expected, but Jason knew that it was because of Saleen's strong mental strength. He judged that Salin still only had the strength of a level 1 apprentice, and it didn't make much sense to cast an extra level 0 magic, at least it couldn't help Salin accumulate enough magic elements, that is, in the end, he still couldn't form a magic string.
