Chapter 7: Disciples
The giant fire elemental, which only leaked out of its head, glanced at the red torrent that flew over with a dull gaze, and in the raging lava waves, a huge flame hand came out, grabbing the young mage's spell in his hand.
"Humph!"
With a muffled and cold snort, the giant hand formed by the flames was instantly pierced by dozens of red lava needles, and the fire element that turned into essence dissipated, but after piercing the giant hand, the color of the lava needles was already very thin, and after half a circle, they all dissipated in the same way.
And with the collapse of the hand of flames, the lava undercurrent began to ripple again, like a huge wave in the sea, and waves of magma were like a wall of fire scraping towards the young mage floating in the air. However, the young mage standing on the floating version had already begun the next round of whispering incantations, seeing that the first wave of the wall of fire had already been hit, the staff in his hand flickered, the tip flashed slightly, and a layer of pale red crystal cover enveloped the whole person and the floating board, and then passed through the attack of the wall of fire unscathed.
Then, when the second wave of the wall of fire approached, the young mage had already finished chanting the spell in his hand, and across the wall of fire, he raised his staff a little in the direction of the giant fire elemental, and one by one the stone spikes with lava magma rushed out of the lake, forming a jagged group of stone thorns on the surface of the river.
The giant fire element in the center was pushed out of the lake by a few spikes for the first time, and it shook in mid-air for a long time before slapping the spike under the body, and after a few muffled sounds interrupted all the spikes, it rushed towards the lava river, but when the lower body of the fire element was about to touch the lava, the ice-colored cold current that traversed the entire spike area enveloped it, but in a few seconds, the giant fire element more than four meters in the middle turned into a strange ice sculpture nailed to several stone thorns, and then with a crisp sound, it shattered into countless fine ice crystals and scattered them, and at the same time, a hand composed of a blue light curtain was inserted horizontally into the ice crystal rain, took out a plum-sized, crystal-like fiery red energy core, turned into a blue light and flew back quickly.
Stepping on the massive rock block under his feet, Kyris nodded in satisfaction, although it was very rough, but it was quite hard to do. Most of the platforms that are specially designed for temporary or even short-term garrison are simply processed and fixed on the edge of the lava undercurrent, theoretically every half a kilometer, because of the erosion of the lava, in the absence of magical defense, such a piece needs to be rearranged for more than four months at most.
Turning his gaze from the rock platform under his feet to the energy core in his hand, Kelreth didn't even look at Sam, who had quietly hid, but after snorting coldly, the other party obediently walked out of George's back and walked to the front slowly.
"Teacher!"
"Master Sam, it looks like you're really planning to go down the fire path!"
Still not looking at his apprentice, Kyris just said coldly. Of his current disciples, Sam's talent is the best, but the one that worries him the most.
As the first mage in the entire Sunset Town to reach the Third Ring, Sam was actually promoted half a year before George. Although there are many factors in this, in addition to the fact that there is a rich mentor, and the disciples of this mentor are pitiful, all kinds of resources are continuously provided, and the powerful assistance of the high magic environment of the Tower of Sunset, the deeper reason is that his original good mage talent, under the stimulation of Kelrith's soul adjustment, the overall effect is almost to catch up with the demon girl who is better than Belinda.
Unlike artificial mages, Sam and Lilia, the naturally awakened mage seeds, are completely different levels in terms of soul origin and basic talents, and neither the limits of the spell models that can be tolerated in the soul medium nor the stability of the spell models are deliberately comparable to those of the artificial mages.
In short, Sam and Lilia are more comfortable than artificial mages who rely entirely on the spell model created by Kelryth, and the promotion of magical talent by the spell model is the most important, although this promotion is very slow, but it is better to be peaceful and built on an already thick foundation, and the ring promotion is not only smooth but also safe and natural.
Moreover, although they are also only building a three-in-one magic model, they are completely different from artificial mages like a building in the sand, Sam and Lilia's foundation is comparable to reinforced concrete, and they are stable and do not need to worry about it at all. The spell slots of the other two are not only the trinity spells constructed, but even in terms of mana capacity and spell energy level, they are far beyond ordinary artificial mages.
In fact, from Sam and Lilia, Kyrus has already discovered that compared to giving ordinary people mage talents and creating artificial mages, in addition to the anti-heaven function of creating artificial mages, with the particularity of their own spiritual power medium, there will be no hidden danger of many artificial mages at all.
In this case, the mage has better talent, more spell slots, greater mana capacity, and more consideration of several smooth-hair spells of the same level, which is simply comparable to the existence of a child of magic like a high elf.
Sam's talent is very good, which can be seen from his intelligence attribute that he was eight points tall when he was discovered by Kyrryth, plus the later soul transformation. Compared to George, he is actually the experimenter of another branch of Kelris, that is, specializing in natural awakening mages.
But on the other hand, as an orthodox mage's habit, in fact, the most in Sam and Lilia's side of education, Kyris followed the traditional way of education, just like the old mage, although George also received the same education in it, but due to the various defects of artificial mages, George has actually lost the foundation of inheriting Kyrryth's magic concept on another level.
It's a pity that whether it's Lilia or Sam, they're actually still boys and girls, especially since Kyris himself is a first-time teacher, and most of the cases are free-range, except for a glance in magical education.
Lilia is okay, because of her personality, although she has faded away from her original inferiority complex, she has begun to embark on a formal path of magic, and she is very satisfied with Kyris in all aspects, but Sam, a kid, has given up his own advantages because of the influence of the overall environment, or the influence of his brother George, or the influence of the large waves of artificial mages around him, but has given up his own advantages and relied more on the spell model in the soul medium, and has almost no regard for the traditional spell casting method of independently constructing a spell model and using chant and gesture assistance to cast spells, so that now he is better than the artificial mage except for the mana capacity, which is no different from the artificial mage made by Kelrith.
Glutinous with his head down, Sam stared at his shoes, not daring to look at the mentor who had been staring at the energy core from beginning to end, and for a moment the atmosphere on the whole rock became cold. But then George pulled him behind him and winked at Lilia.
"Mentor, you promised me if I could be promoted to the Third Ring this year!"
Obviously, the senior brother and sister have not responded to this situation once or twice, pulling the cuffs of Kelris's robe, Lilia said coquettishly.
Kelreth put the energy core in his hand in mid-air, pinched the little girl's face, and smiled helplessly.
As the youngest disciple, in addition to Lilia's magic talent is not inferior to Sam's, what Kairrith likes the most is that the other party also has a magic pattern talent, and is the most likely of the current disciples to inherit his enchantment path.
"The original confinement was three months, plus another month!"
Glaring at Sam without Lilia, he snorted coldly, and then turned his head to look at Tessie without looking at the other party's crying face.
"How's the fire elemental encirclement in Area F?"
"This should be the last gathering point today!"
Tessie first glanced at Sam, bowed his head and responded, the reason why he was relieved and bold to hand over himself to Sam was that in addition to the fact that the other party was a personal disciple of Kelrith, Sam's strong actual combat strength was indeed genuine.
Although the lava undercurrent in front of me is tortuous, it is generally in an east-west direction, and because of the erosion of countless times, the lava undercurrent has actually weakened a lot, and now it only occupies half of the original corroded river cave, and there are even similar river banks in the wide place.
Once the Mage Tower was built, Kelrith put the plan to develop the lava underflow on the agenda. The section closest to the high-level fire elemental pool is Area A, each area is about three kilometers long, and has been developed to Area F, with a total of six sections and nearly 20 kilometers long.
The entire lava undercurrent is not only the secondary energy source of the entire mage tower, but also the energy spring of the high-level fire element pool, in addition, all kinds of fire element materials are spread throughout the river, and it is completely a river of wealth flowing with golden sand.
The most troublesome part of developing the lava undercurrent is the endless fire element and even the fire element tribe, but so far, the mages of Sunset Town have only cleared the fire element gathering points in the lava undercurrent, because in the entire exploration process, there has not been a fire element with a title, even if the number of fire element gathering points is countless because of the accumulation of perennial numbers, but there is no high-level fire element, it is still not a fire element tribe.
Of course, even if it is only for the clearing of the fire element gathering point, it is still very dangerous, so even if the task of clearing the lava undercurrent has a high contribution point, and all the gains do not need to be handed in, the fire element life is a mobile treasure in the eyes of many mages, and the undamaged elemental core can be used as the core energy of the puppet construction, even if it is damaged, it can also be used as a magic material, and even the fire element life that is directly captured alive, and it can also be exchanged for a puppet puppet in the Sunset Tower, of course, it is far more troublesome and dangerous to catch alive in the actual situation than to take the core as a result, but the puppet puppet provided by Kyris is very practical, although it can also be exchanged through contribution points, but it is often priceless.
However, even if the benefits are greatly promoted, there are still very few mages who take this kind of task every day, sometimes not even at all, in addition to the high danger, most of the artificial mages are pure fire mages, and when targeting the fire elemental life, the damage of fire spells is often weakened by about three to forty percent, plus the natural bonus of the lava sea, there are actually no less than ten artificial mages who have died in this lava undercurrent.
But Sam is another one, since he was promoted to a ring mage, he began to participate in the clearing of the lava undercurrent, from the caution of the first ring, to the sweep of the third ring, this lava undercurrent has actually witnessed his growth, unlike George, Sam has a lot of prestige among the many industrial mages, but the other party has no desire to take care of things at all, otherwise there is no problem at all to control one.
