Chapter 5: The Mage's Tower and Enchantment

"As a full-fledged mage, you have to understand that the purpose of magic is not destruction, but creation. ”

In the four-story luxurious living room of the Mage Tower, the old mage talked to the little mage, and every week when he moved into the mage tower, the old mage spent most of the day instilling the core theoretical spirit of the school to Kyrryth. Under normal circumstances, the theoretical spirit of these schools will influence the development and research of mages in many ways in the years to come.

If it was before, this kind of one-on-one teaching was the most desired thing during Kelrith's apprenticeship, but now, the first-ring mage did not have much excitement, and the rendering of this theoretical spirit has always been the necessary brainwashing of each school for its juniors, and it is very effective for children who are only teenagers, and the reborn Kelrith already has a relatively complete world view, so he has just listened to it from beginning to end.

However, such a long day of listening to the lecture was not without gain, and Kelreth finally knew that the core of their magic school was actually an enchantment branch derived from the magic pattern tectonics, and then recalled the ring of Tirius, and couldn't help but feel worried about the future of this school, plus he had no interest in this doctrine from beginning to end, this kind of production school, not only needs to spend a lot of time and energy, but also cannot be effective in the short term, and it is generally the lowest in combat power in the same rank, you said that you can be covered with magic jewelry all over your body to enhance your own strengthI'm sorry, but any mage's concentration is limited, and the mental power cost of controlling two magic items at the same time is more than four times that of operating one. Therefore, this is completely contrary to Kyrryth, who is eager to increase his strength and prepare for the future catastrophe.

"Still, pretense is necessary. The thin body held seven or eight books on the basic doctrine that he had obtained from the old mage, and staggered down to the apprentice's laboratory on the third floor.

Since moving into the Mage Tower, the internal structure is almost familiar.

On the first floor of the tower, the main body is a large living room, which can probably entertain thirty or forty people at the same time, although in the mage tower, there should not be a chance to entertain thirty or forty people at the same time, attached to the living room is a kitchen and storage room, there is nothing special in it, it is a stove, but to the surprise of Kelrith, under the power of magic, this stove can produce combustible gas like biogas, which is very convenient, almost no different from the automatic liquefied gas stove on the earth, the only problem is that only the mage can start, of course, without the mage, it can also be burned with firewood, so there is some firewood stored here。 Kelreth only learned when he became an official mage that the mages of this world can really use the magic energy to make food similar to magic bread out of thin air, but the taste of this kind of thing is not unpalatable, but it has no taste at all, plus there is no nutrition at all, but it can make people replenish basic energy and not starve to death, and a single consumption for a long time will also produce diseases similar to the pollution of the human body, which is not a big problem, but it is very troublesome. As a result, it's rare for a mage to put magically crafted food on the table on a day-to-day basis.

There is a rectangular top pool on the left side of the kitchen, this pool is the size of a tenth of a room, paved with pure white stone slabs, the water is two meters deep, very clear, through the light on the wall, you can clearly see that there is a very small stone altar in the pool, only a few centimeters in length, width and height, there is a small water vortex on the stone altar, although I don't know the principle, but the water here will automatically change every four hours, at the beginning of the period because of curiosity, Kelreis also spent half a day observing, but in the end it is only determined that it is indeed the role of the small altar at the bottom of the pool。

Next to the kitchen, there is the basic storage room, which is actually connected to the kitchen, but it is separated by a sink, because it is only used as a storage for some living materials in the mage tower, so the protection work is very casual. The storage room was large, taking up almost all the space left on the ground floor, and was built to meet the needs of a hundred people a month, with layers of shelves for all kinds of things. In addition to beef, sheep, pigs, and fish in the fresh meat section, there are also shelves of cheese, eggs, milk, condiments, and coffee. In addition, vegetables, fruits, potatoes, green onions are piled up in a corner, and there is even a shelf full of spices, which may be rare and ordinary on earth, but this world is a real high-end luxury. But there are actually no living servants in the entire Mage Tower, most of the details of life are in charge of the construction puppets in the tower, and there are only a few things that are burned over and over, and Kerris once asked Tiris, it seems that these dishes have not changed at all from when he first entered the Mage Tower ten years ago.

Moving on to the second floor, the apprentice's area begins, with a total of seven private rooms serving as apprentices' bedrooms, each with a regular study, and a small rest room, which is currently only used by two. The remaining space on the second floor is synthesized into a small library, and the books inside are already some secret magic books of this genre that cannot be accessed from the outside, of course, the corresponding level is very low, and there is almost no content suitable for intermediate level or above, this is the library open to apprentices in the mage tower.

Then there is the third floor, which is divided into six rooms, one large and five small, the big one is the place where the usual instructor lectures and demonstrates experiments, and the small one is an independent laboratory open to apprentices, originally there was only Tirith alone, the old mage usually lectures in his small laboratory, and now with two apprentices, the old mage has planned to reopen the big laboratory to teach.

When you climb to the fourth floor, you will see a very luxuriously decorated living room, which is the private living room of the master of the mage tower, and it is also the place where the old mage summons the apprentices to meet under normal circumstances. From the fourth floor, it is the territory of the old mage, and Tyrius has only been to the mage's study on the fifth floor, in fact, this study is a real genre library, the huge bookshelf group is divided into more than a dozen areas, each area is placed with different books, and each book has a mysterious magical brilliance.

According to the structure of the normal mage tower, the upper floors should be the old mage's private laboratory, storage room, and bedroom, and there may also be a floor dedicated to cultivating magical plants. However, all of this is just Kelrith's speculation, and it is rare for a mage to show everything about his mage tower to others, not even his own children.

The ground floor of the Mage Tower is a forbidden area with a clear price, and even Tirius doesn't know what it is, but in theory, it is usually a dangerous top-secret place such as a negative energy zone or a monster cage.

Kyrreth walked over to his lab, knocked on the door of a nearby room, and shook his head when he didn't feel responsive, knowing that Tireth had gone out to fool around again. Pushing the door into his laboratory, a simple three-meter-long, one-meter-wide experimental table with some experimental instruments and crystal utensils, several rows of wooden shelves scattered with empty glass bottles of different sizes, the whole room is actually still very empty waiting for the new owner to fill it.

Placing the book on the bookshelf in the corner, Kyris walked over to the lab table and picked up the silver ring on the table, which was the one that Tirius had failed to enchant, and his gaze crossed the red triangle in the corner of his eye.

Item: Fragmented Magic Ring

Effect: The aura can be large or small

Engraving: Type A No. 1 (extractable)

The moment he first got the ring, the red triangle in the corner of his eye burned a little, and while pretending to observe, such a piece of data appeared in his sight, but at that time, Kyrreth did not behave too abnormally, but asked for the ring from Tirius that night. The ring itself was not valuable, but it was mixed with a little Mithril and a failed enchantment, so the crappy enchanter was happy to give the work to his junior brother.

With the silent sentence of "extraction" in his heart, a complex 3D three-dimensional model slowly unfolded in his sight, composed of energy nodes and energy silk threads. Despite the accurate enchantment model, Kelrith couldn't understand even 10% of the structure, let alone analyze the errors. However, the high-level of the three-ring spell and the complexity of the corresponding enchantment were reduced to a zero boundary point through this model, and after nearly a week of repeated observation, Kyris finally found an entry point, and used it as a fulcrum, and finally had a little understanding of this enchantment model.

The casting of spells is to engrave the corresponding spell model through one's own spiritual power, attract the surrounding energy, and concretize it in reality.

For example, the simplest of the standard spells: Ice Arrow, which is one of the few official spells that Kelreth is currently exposed to.

Different from the zero-ring trick in the mage's apprenticeship stage, it is a faint unnatural phenomenon that only requires mental power to simply resonate with the surrounding energy. As a standard one-ring spell that can only be mastered by formal mages, the Ice Arrow requires more powerful mental power and precise mental power control, using spiritual power as raw materials, like building blocks to construct a spiritual power model, and then, on the basis of successful construction, activate each model node with its own mana, and the spiritual power model will absorb the surrounding energy like a magnet to fill itself, and then an ice-blue spell with a misty tail like a meteor is formed, and the process of this process generally takes three to four seconds even if it is a ring spell。

And if you want to enchant the Ice Arrow, it is impossible to frame it with spiritual power, because no one's spiritual power can be materialized and attached to the magic guide material, so it can only be replaced by some magic materials, and spell models are engraved on various ring faces, staffs, and even robes. But the biggest problem that comes with it is that the high conductivity of magic materials also shows a high activity, just like using a piece of soap that is wet and slippery with water to pick up the Eiffel Tower, many times, it is not easy to build it successfully, and it is easy to ignore the mistake of a small detail mixed in the whole model, and the result is the appearance of this kind of broken little trick magic ring.

Shaking his head, Kelrith doesn't want to spend too much effort on the road of enchantment at present, although he seems to be able to structure more clearly with the auxiliary function of the red triangle, but instead of thinking about how to engrave a ring spell on the ring all day, it is better to learn a new ring spell.

The red triangle in the corner of the eye flashed slightly:

Name: Kyle Reis

Race: Unknown

Occupation: Aristocracy

Mage (Beginner Ring)

Attribute: Intelligence -11 (mediocre magical talent)

Constitution-4 (you are underage and malnourished)

Strength -3 (bucket water makes you panting)

Charm -10 (You have the potential to captivate the country and the city)

Remaining unassigned attribute points: 1

In contrast to the fragile mage apprentices, who can only exercise their mental power by constantly radiating their mental power, the formal mages have developed a variety of training methods that are dangerous compared to apprentices through countless years of summary and research. The old mage's school also has its own exclusive exercise secret method, since moving into the mage tower, Kelrith has been exposed to this secret method, through a week of exercise, although he feels that his mental power is more condensed, and his strength has also improved, but there is no change in his attribute page to refresh his mind, or the amplitude is too small, or his attribute is not linked to the ring position...
