Chapter Eighty-Five: Drawing the Scroll
Today is Thursday. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The course that just ended was from the formation department.
In addition to the introduction, I will also give a brief introduction to the production of scrolls.
Formation is not an independent discipline, it is related to many other disciplines, such as the Fountain of Magic is a top-notch creation that combines formation and magic.
This refers to the artificial fountain of magic.
There are also many one-time alchemy products, such as the legendary Hellfire Stone, which is a combination of alchemy and formation method.
If there's one thing that's dominated by formation learning and supplemented by knowledge of other disciplines, it's common scrolls and equipment enchantments.
The drawing of the scroll is not low in terms of materials and makers, and the advantage is that it is easy to apply, so if there is a condition, some will be brought, but this thing is often priceless.
After talking to Mr. Cameron, who taught the class, after Carl, Cameron suggested that he find a space with stable elements and try to do it himself, which is still very easy.
If the elemental environment is unstable, drawing scrolls can easily fail or even lead to backlash.
In fact, alchemy is the same.
Many mage towers are built with at least one room dedicated to this function.
There are also such functional facilities in the college.
"You can go to the practice center and ask for a lab bench. Cameron said, "I'll write you a proof." Go to the North 3rd Block, 2nd floor. β
......
Carl came to the practice center with the certificate that Cameron had written.
It's a tower-like building, and there is also a practice center in the South 3rd District, which looks more like a fortress.
Step inside the Tower.
"What class are you in, and the lab class hasn't started yet, right?" a guard in heavy armor who stood like a statue stopped Carl as he passed by.
"I'm Carl from Class A. Karl handed Cameron his certificate, "I'll borrow a set of benches to draw scrolls." β
"Oh, let's go to the second floor. The guard looked at it and said, "Did you draw the material belt of the scroll?"
A drop of cold sweat broke out from Karl's head: "Uh, I forgot." β
"The academy won't help you prepare these things, except for the ones that are distributed, you have to pay for everything else. The guard urn said, "These things are sold on the third floor of the big shopping mall in the living area, and the general ink of the Vanilla Grass Grinding is too bad, so it is best to use the special ink corresponding to the elemental properties." The magic that parchment carries one or two rings is also the limit, the leather of the monster, the leaves of the magic plant and the like. β
Karl nodded in understanding, it is said that the dragon scales and the leaves of the Tree of Life can carry almost all the magic of the Ten Rings, except for the forbidden spell.
However, he was only going to try to make a scroll of the One Ring Spell at the moment, and the parchment vanilla ink was enough.
"Excuse me, can you draw a scroll with a crystal pen?" Karl suddenly remembered the one Amos had given him.
"I'm just a guard, a warrior, not a mage. The guard glared at him and said, "I only know I've seen it, but I've never seen anyone write scrolls with a crystal pen anyway." β
"Theoretically, if you have a spell scroll with one ring or two rings, you can use any pen. At this time, a mage happened to come down from the upper floor and seemed to be about to go out, and happened to hear a conversation, "But the crystal pen can't absorb ink, how can it be used to draw scrolls?"
Carl patted his head and asked himself a stupid question.
"However, if you make a mistake and the problem is not big, you can fix it with a crystal pen. The mage added, "Trick, hehe." β
After saying that, he hurried out the door.
Carl looked at the other party's back and couldn't help but sigh that everyone was very busy.
"If you're just making a spell scroll with one or two rings, just use the basic three-piece set that the academy gave you. "Of course, I don't think it's going to work." There are still a lot of these things stored in the center, and you can buy them on the spot for a little money. Show me the card, and I'll go and register. β
"Well, bring me one. Karl took out the card with gold and silver patterns on a blue background and handed it over.
"Carl?" the guard pulled out a list out of nowhere and compared it, "Freshman No.2, don't you say it earlier, if you are in the top ten, the academy will give it convenience within a certain limit." β
"And this benefit?" said Karl, grimacing.
"It's just convenient, like you don't have to spend money on those things, but you don't really have to spend a few bucks. The guard handed Carl back.
"That's not bad. β
......
There was a female mage sitting near the staircase on the second floor drinking tea, and when she saw a circle of things in Carl's hand, she pointed in a direction: "Go forward, go forward, turn left, and the third room on your left hand." β
Carl was stunned for a moment before he reacted and showed the way.
Following clear instructions, Carl found the lab without incident, pushed open the door, and found a total of four sets of platforms placed far apart in the room, two of which were being used, one in the fourth grade and one in the third grade.
The elemental environment in the room is very stable and even somewhat depressing, like being in the suppression field of a double jammer, but not as much as that, and the elemental activity does not drop much due to suppression.
Gently closing the door so as not to disturb them, Carl picked a table.
Extremely clean and flat water platform with nothing but a set of high-precision rulers and a few basic tools.
This is just a basic test bench, as long as the experimental environment is laid out.
Carl took out a roll of parchment, opened it, measured it out to be 40 cm x 60 cm in size, cut it with obsidian scissors, and stacked a dozen sheets.
The size of the standard reel.
"First of all, we use the formation method of reducing the spatial structure into a two-dimensional plane, make it according to the standard template, and then adjust it according to the personal magic attributes. Karl muttered to himself as he took out two books and put them on the tableβ
Reference book "Graphic Interpretation Encyclopedia"
Case book "Candlelight Scroll Making Tutorial"
It was lent to Carl by Mr. Cameron and asked him to return it next week.
What Carl was trying to make now was the Candlelight Scroll, the simplest spell and the easiest example of scroll crafting.
The first thing you need to do is to make sure that the maker has fully mastered the spell, otherwise it will never be possible.
Flipping to the array page, Karl's quill was filled with ink and began to lay down on the parchment.
The two-dimensional formation diagram is much more complicated than the mental power rune diagram, and Carl failed twice against the pattern on the tutorial before it was successfully completed, and after comparing it with a ruler, there was almost no error.
This is just the first step.
Carl's hands dangled above the scroll, unleashing the candlelight.
The magic power surged, gushing out of the palm of the hand, and before the magic model was formed, it was absorbed by the ink of the array on the scroll that had not yet dried, and the entire model was engraved like this.
The light element was pulled by the scroll.
The scroll glowed with a faint white light.
"It's finished?" said Carl.
However, it wasn't that easy, the white light was unstable, flickering on and off, and then exploded after a sharp contraction, and although the candlelight was not lethal, the surface of the scroll was still a mess.
Carl suddenly remembered that his version of the candlelight spell was actually a modified version of Pache and was actually an exclusive spell.
In other words, the spatial structure of the spell is not the same as the standard.
In addition, his candlelight structure did not match the two-dimensional array.
Carl frowned, he just wanted to try his hand at scroll making......
Then you can try to determine the formation diagram of the candlelight technique yourself, and it is not difficult.
It was Pache Valley's voice.
Did you get it?, Karl asked rhetorically.
4 minutes and 33 seconds. Patchouli just said a time.
Karl fell into a speechless silence.
Come in and get it if you want it.
No, Carl's stubbornness was also aroused.
For some reason, he didn't like to be taught directly by the Magical Envoy Maiden. But he enjoyed the discussion with Pache on an equal footing.
Whatever you want. Patchouli said a word and then stopped talking.
Carl silently recalls a passage from Cameron's class.
"The concept of spatial structure was proposed by Speaker Douglas 100 years ago, so that is to say, the technique of structural transformation diagram also appeared after that. You should know that the concept of structure replaces the outdated descriptive lexicon, using descriptors to emphasize the attributes of a spell, such as 'stable', 'strong', 'sharp'......
They have a many-to-many correspondence with the Psychic Rune Pattern, which is not very useful, which is why they are eliminated. However, they are much easier to understand than spatial structure methods, so it is faster for low-level mages to choose to use descriptive lexicography to learn spells.
Similarly, descriptors also have their corresponding basic graphics, and they are a one-to-many relationship that is easier to retrieve, a descriptor may have several basic graphics to represent, but a basic graphic will only represent one descriptor. β
[Descriptor].
Karl took out a notebook from the spatial ring, "Pache Research Notes - Candlelight".
This was transcribed by Carl himself, and had already been returned to Patchouli.
"Removed 'Condensation' and 'Continuous' and replaced 'Steady'......" Carl reads as he begins to wire and add to the standard candlelight array.
When you encounter an unclear item, open the "Graphic Interpretation Dictionary", this reference book records the spatial structure and descriptors corresponding to each basic figure and some advanced graphics, which is very convenient to use, but it is too thick.
............
......
Six hours later.
"Whew. Carl sighed as he looked at the circular pattern in front of him, "This should be about the same." β
The young man's face was pale, and cold sweat was dripping, but there was a faint excitement in his expression.
Identifying a formation is a very draining task, and it is a little less difficult than creating a spell.
You should take a break. Pache Teau's voice rang in Carl's ears.
No, you can take a look at my formation, right? Karl whispered.
......
Pache didn't speak, because the formation that Carl had deduced was not the same as hers.
Instead of waiting for an answer, Karl redrew one side with a new piece of parchment and typed the candlelight spell on.
The scroll glowed with a faint white light, and a ball of light spiraled up, then brighter and brighter, and within two seconds the brightness stabilized and did not change.
It worked.
Congratulations. Pache said sincerely.
The boy went his own way under his own gaze, not just following her.
