Chapter 155: Saleen's Skills (Part II)
There was another reason why Saleen decided to start learning the Crystal Finger, and after meeting the Black Cardinal, he found that with his current combat ability, he was too little of a threat to professionals above level six. Shika and Rex weren't too obvious when they were around, but as soon as the two of them left, Saleen immediately felt a little embarrassed.
Against the swordsman, even at the level of the Juggernaut, Salin has some special means to gain an advantage. But if the enemy is a magician or a magician, he has almost no choice. Neris's strength was limited by his own level and could not be used, and the two of them combined did not cause real harm to the Cardinal.
If Banchagana hadn't arrived and scared the cardinal away, even if Salin had been promoted, he would not have been the cardinal's opponent. This made Salin anxious to learn a kind of magic that was so lethal that it exceeded the level limit, the consumption of the crystal finger was not large, and when Salin was studying, he knew that this sixth-level magic consumed the number of magic strings of fifth-level magic in his hands.
The difficulty of learning the Crystal Finger is much more difficult than Salin thought, and this magic directly gives four forms.
Crystal Finger: Within 10 meters, control six streams of water to shoot continuously. If the attack position is the same, the attack power of each stream is twice as high as the previous one. The length of the water flow is the length of the magician's index finger, and when the magic string consumption reaches level 7, it begins to have the effect of water cutting, and can cast spells at the second level.
Crystal Finger: Within a range of 10 meters, it can freeze the enemy's blood in the air, and has a piercing effect. This skill can be negated by Divine Magic, Magic, and Sword Aura, and the power consumed by the enemy in the cancellation is equal to twice that of the normal state. The effect of each attack is doubled, and six attacks can be performed. Can be cast second-level.
Crystal Finger: Within a radius of 10 meters, it can heat the water element in the enemy's body, vaporizing it. This skill can be negated by Divine Magic, Magic, and Sword Aura, and the power consumed by the enemy in the cancellation is equal to twice that of the normal state. The effect of each attack is doubled, and six attacks can be performed. Can be cast second-level.
Crystal Finger Realm: Standard level 7 magic, temporarily unable to learn.
This magic involves the knowledge of elemental transformation, and if Salin hadn't systematically learned this knowledge before, the study of the crystal finger would have dragged on for at least a few years. From Joey, he got the skill of elemental transformation, and now learning the Crystal Finger is a matter of course. The fourth form required the power of the Magus to activate, and the other three Salin only took three days to learn.
After learning it, you have to practice, and when you first learn magic, you need to recite mantras and magic gestures together. And the timing of the excitation cannot be instantaneous. If you want to learn all the magic silent, instantaneous and second-level casting, it takes the longest time.
And there is no way to shorten the learning time of these abilities, the only way is to become familiar with this magic repeatedly, so that the body's reaction speed gradually increases. Saleen's only advantage is that his body is modified by Joey, and learning any water magic will be quick.
If it takes a month for someone else to become familiar with a magic, it takes less than a week for Salin. Similarly, by using elemental transformation to simulate the magic of the other five systems, Salin would take at least one to two times as long as others.
This is destined to make the number of Saleen learning and simulating the other five systems of magic very rare, and he can only maintain a level of familiarity, and it is impossible to learn all of them. Otherwise, his advance speed would probably be one-fifth of that of other magicians.
The form of the Crystal Finger Realm cannot be learned by Salin, this is a skill that can only be learned by a magician, this skill will form a stable space of the water element within a radius of even ten meters around, and things like elemental disorder will not affect Salin's spellcasting. As for the other attribute abilities, Salin is now unable to learn them, and what Rafal left behind must be explored in person, so he did not write down in too much detail.
However, Saleen is very much looking forward to this skill, Neris was injured last time, forming a space of elemental disorder, if there is a crystal finger in the skill that Saleen mastered at that time, the impact will be much smaller, and when he fights in close combat, he will definitely hit the cardinal hard, and it is even possible to kill this strong man with a demigod weapon.
The combat range controlled by the Grand Mage is almost the same as that of the Alchemy Crossbow, with a distance of two hundred meters. Saleen is now a fifth-level mage and is already able to meet such a requirement.
However, his two strongest skills are both close-range attacks, with the attack range of the Crystal Finger being around ten meters, and the attack range of the Water Cutting being no more than thirty meters.
Ice Strike, Ice Totem's attack range is most appropriately within 100 meters, and the attack range of the Level 5 Magic Spring Strike is more than 100 meters, but it does not have the attribute of tracking.
When the water magic is really strong, after becoming a magician, the seventh-level crystal guard, frost and snow magic pattern, ice storm, and blazing current are all powerful magic, but the average magician rarely chooses to use water magic as the main combat method before the seventh level, and it is too difficult to learn.
Almost all of these seventh-level spells can be advanced to eighth, saving the mage time to learn new magic. And when you advance to the ninth level, there will be peak magic in the water magic, that is, mature magic.
Rafal made a masterful summary of the six systems of magic, so that Saleen no longer cared about the flaws of his magic strings. Anyway, if you study water magic, after you reach the magician, your combat power will not be lower than that of other magicians.
After Saleen was promoted to a fifth-level magician, Neris fell into a deep sleep again. She absorbed the heart essence of the Thiago dragon and was once again elevated, and now her strength surpassed that of the original Sika. It's just that I don't know if Sika will increase his strength again like Neris after becoming a battle priest.
Salin now pays great attention to the power of equipment, and the equipment he has is good, especially the demon suit, last time he didn't have anything to do with the elemental disorder, first, he saw the opportunity early and canceled the magic he was using at that time, and the second is that the demon suit has a strong stable performance, so that the magic strings in his body are not affected by the elemental disorder at all.
It's just that the demon suit has existed for too long, and although the material is good, it is not suitable for a mage like Salin. In addition to learning the magic of the fifth and sixth levels, Salin also spends part of his day learning the alchemy of Shui Yan. He was going to transform the demon suit himself, and he wanted to smelt the demon patterns he learned from the thunder dragon into the demon suit.
He wasn't Neris, and it was impossible for him to control the growth of magic patterns on his body. The three-dimensional magic in his pupils he didn't know yet, and Salin had a lot of expectations for the demon suit.
Essentially, everything in a demon set is priceless, and for a magician, having such a suit makes it almost impossible to worry about magical equipment.
After Saleen was promoted to the fifth level, he found that the space inside the Demon Ring had become larger. In other words, if he is promoted to Magus, the space within this ring will expand to be large enough for him to use.
With the Demon Bracelet inlaid with Dragon Crystal, Saleen barely had to use the Core to restore the Magic String. Unless the dragon crystal is in the void period, it has to recover itself.
The close-fitting demon magic robe is not a magic robe at all, because no magic robe can be stacked on the outside and worn again. The Demon Robe has this ability, and the double magic robe makes the elemental environment around Saleen extremely stable.
As for the Demon Magic Book, its value can be compared to the Golden Magic Book.
Saleen never developed the use of the magic book because his level was not high enough. After he was promoted to the rank of Magister, the power of the spellbook was revealed. He can infuse any magic book in gold and silver spellbooks and use it over and over again. This is not like a magic scroll, which consumes a lot of materials, and is not limited by the level at which the scroll can be made.
The Golden Book of Spells can provide Salin with six seventh-level magic, six eighth-level magic, and six ninth-level magic. The Demon Spellbook can provide Saleen with six untiered and unlimited spells. In this way, Salin would have twenty-four more advanced spells than a mage of the same level.
What is the concept of twenty-four high-level magic? A large-scale seventh-level magic can solve dozens of swordsman-level enemies. Twenty-four high-level magic, capable of killing thousands of swordsmen. A regular cavalry regiment is 10,000 people, which is probably a few hundred sword divisions.
These two magic books can allow Saleen to defeat a cavalry regiment of 10,000 people without consuming the magic strings.
If you use scrolls to fight, in addition to the large consumption that is unbearable, you also need to consider the problem that the magic released by the scrolls is difficult to control. If the magic is not controlled well, the lethality will be drastically reduced. The swordsman is not weak, if you can't lock it with magic, with the speed of the swordsman, it is not impossible to kill the great mage in close quarters.
And the number of swordsmen on the battlefield is huge, and it is difficult to quickly distinguish among swordsmen. Magicians rarely go to the battlefield to fight directly, because on the battlefield, if the magician can't fly at high altitude, the mortality rate will not be very low.
It takes at least a few decades to train a great mage, and who would be willing to let a great mage go to war and take risks. Even if the magician goes to the battlefield, he will only strike at the critical moment under the heavy protection of the soldiers.
The magic book that Salin has can change that. This shows how precious high-level magic books are.
The time for cultivation flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is already deep winter, and the city base is covered with heavy snow, and in such an environment, it is impossible for the people of the Holy See to appear. The harbor is completely frozen, and the warships of Slig Island dock on a deserted island in the distance, along with pirate ships. The warship uses a lot of high-grade materials, and it will not disintegrate if it is frozen, so if the pirate ship is frozen, I am afraid that it will be completely shattered.
On this day, Salin was practicing Shui Yan Alchemy, and he was already able to release a light blue Shui Yan in his hand, and the control time exceeded fifteen seconds, which was already a preliminary entry. Just as he was feeling a little happy and wanted to go to Neris to ask about her entry, a second-level magician from Tryg Island hurried into the temple and came to Salin's room, whispering a few words in his ear.
"Hmm? I'll take a look. Listening to the words of this second-level mage, Salin cautiously called a dozen swordsmen, surrounded by swordsmen, and walked in the direction of the harbor.
