Chapter 2: Magic
Give me a thousand words about the background~
―――――― the planet that Jack crossed over to is not necessarily a planet, it may also be a wonderful continent where everything is on the same level, and in any case, the name of this "world" is Eitleta. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Atlas is dotted with kingdoms large and small, and Jack's kingdom of Gidala is located on the western shore of the continent, and further west is the endless sea - to be precise, the sea of death from which adventurers who have never sailed far can return safely.
Of course, there were magicians, knights, priests, and assassins in Aetaletta, as well as many species that only existed in legends - for the uncrossed Jack, of course.
According to the Arcane Council, a behemoth entrenched in the western continent, magicians, knights, assassins, and priests all use magical powers, the difference being that magicians and priests are more mentally powerful and can manipulate magic in detail, while knights and assassins cannot, and they can only rely on the power of the bloodline to mobilize magic roughly and rigidly.
However, it is clear that the Holy See does not approve of this magical unity, and even the Knights' Guild and the Secret League of Assassins have openly opposed it.
Jack thought that maybe they were just reacting to be a little more confident in their profession - something unique always makes people feel confident.
In short, each profession is still called according to each profession.
Let's go back to the mage, the mage profession is divided into the mage apprentice and the ring mage, and the sanctuary mage, there seems to be a higher level of power, but obviously neither Jack nor his five-ring teacher is clear.
The mage strengthens his mental power through meditation, and then stabilizes his mental power by constructing a spell model in the spiritual sea, and for the spells that exist in his mind, the mage only needs to recite them for a short time (which plays the role of hypnotic concentration) to release magic through the spell model in his mind. As for spells that are not built into the mind, to unleash them requires chanting, gestures, and channeling materials.
The requirement of the mage apprentice is to build 0 ring spells in his mind, such as Jack, he has three 0 ring spells in his spiritual sea, so he is a senior mage apprentice, and if he wants to become a ring mage, he needs to build a spell with the corresponding number of rings, for example, the judgment standard of the eight-ring mage is that there are eight eight-ring spells in the spiritual sea, of course, the upgrade of the mage is not so simple, there are other requirements in the level of the first ring, three rings, six rings, and nine rings.
The first-ring mage requires the construction of a magic cycle guided by the spiritual sea, so that the mage will no longer be limited by the magic power; the third-ring mage needs to have the ability to manifest the magic power; the six-ring mage needs to master the release of spiritual power; the nine-ring mage needs to let his spiritual power form a personal reality, that is, he needs to form a complete world view; as for the holy domain mage, their requirement is to form a personal inherent enchantment.
The magic circle is an extension of the spell, but it is the only way to cast a spell that does not require a fixed rank, so it is better to say that its rank requirements are very obscure.
The magic circle is the same as the spell model, composed of structure and runes, different runes represent different mysterious powers, this part of the requirements are relatively loose, but the structure - that is, the lines that make up the magic array need to be very precise, that is not an ordinary triangle or circle, but more vivid and abstract lines, to draw them accurately, it must require a strong spiritual force as a guide, but also need rich experience.
However, the above must not exist for Jack, perhaps because of the time travel, although his brain does not exist in reality, Jack does not feel the entity in his brain, but his brain can be said to have fused with his soul, not only providing him with powerful computing power, but also retaining all the information.
It can be said that although Jack's spiritual power is still only a high-level mage apprentice, he can completely complete the magic array of the high-ring spell on his own - as long as there are materials.
---After opening the iron door in the basement, Jack lit the oil lamp, and then used a [Light Enhancement] to make the entire laboratory as bright as daytime.
[Light Enhancement] is a 0-ring spell mastered by Jack, and the other two 0-ring spells he has mastered are [Arcane Trick] and [Melting Metal] - neither of which are offensive spells.
However, Jack did not complain, he was very excited about the magical feeling of using a spell for the first time - although he had already experienced it once in his memory, it was still the first novel experience for Jack now.
The wonderful power in the body was injected into the magic model in the spiritual sea with the guidance of the spirit, and this power was transformed into something else, spread to the outside world, and then, the reality changed!
It was only a superficial experience, of course, but it was enough for Jack - it succeeded in igniting Jack's interest, and in this moment, in Jack's mind, magic and alloy were already on an equal footing of interest.
"Star, did you just find anything?" Jack asked about the bound Brain, which was the name of the Brain.
"The data is insufficient to judge, and it is recommended that the master conduct several more experiments, and with the abundant data, I can analyze the principle of the spell as much as possible. However, the nature of magic may require more precise experimental equipment. ”
The fusion of [Star] and Jack's soul basically means that what Jack can feel [Star] can also feel, but perhaps it is precisely because of this that it is more difficult for [Star] to analyze the magic power.
However, there is no need to rush about what magic is, and Jack plans to start with simple mechanics and try to combine magic and mechanics step by step.
He planned to make a pistol first.
Jack intended to combine magic with mechanics, and he naturally thought of the magic array, a power that this apprentice could also use. With the help of [Star], Jack can draw the magic circle completely accurately, and more importantly, as long as there is enough experimental data, [Star] can even find the pattern and calculate the applicable magic array, which is undoubtedly a huge help.
There are no pistols in this world, but that doesn't mean that pistols are a very complex, high-tech thing, on the contrary, the principle of pistols is very simple.
Relying on the heat generated by the explosion of gunpowder to heat the air in the chamber of the gun, it is possible to instantly generate a tremendous air pressure that will press the bullet out of the chamber.
The above is the basic principle of the pistol (and of course some other elements), it only needs to meet the instantaneous heating to make the bullet have a great muzzle velocity, this thing is a simple but terrible weapon. You must know that only the Silver Knight who has reached level 6 can move at supersonic speed, and only a mage of the Protection School with more than 6 rings can construct a spell shield to resist the Silver Knight.
In other words, pistols can pose a threat to professions below level 6.
Unable to bear his crookedness any longer, Jack immediately found a copy of the "Encyclopedia of Magic Arrays" given by Teacher Wuhuan from the bookshelf in the laboratory - this is a book that records the common magic arrays below the three rings.
He first flipped through it and asked [Xing] to record the book in his head, and then searched for it.
He found a total of three spells that could help.
The first experiment was the [Fireball Technique] (Second Ring)
