Chapter 19: Mike's Progress

While waiting for the results of Chief Mage Nîmes, Mike intensified his practice of projection.

According to his original thoughts, as an omnipotent time-traveler and high-end mage, he is proficient in construction, and it is not easy to use the projection method - the first work of the Golden Crown has proved this. As a result, Mike's projection quality is obviously not very high, and the quality of the jewelry is not as good as expected, which is the reason why Mike knows this - this is not the case caused by the enchantment.

But this kind of thing, you think Mike is going to talk nonsense.

"Because there were too many people involved, the proficiency was uneven, and there were certain problems in terms of cooperation and experience, resulting in the quality of the jewelry was seriously not as expected. In order to avoid this situation from happening again, I think it is important for everyone to practice more fully. Mike's expression was serious, and his tone was serious.

"I wonder if the Captain can perform projection enhancement, sharpness, and flame super-miniature magic patterns on this scimitar?" said Dahni, holding the Teslun family scimitar. If you must exercise, it is better to exercise with this kind of thing, and replace it as a weapon, or sell it.

"Absolutely no problem. Mike patted his chest and assured.

So in these days, Mike has to use the 5th order construction technique to throw 4 Tesron family standard scimitars with ready-made magic patterns out to enchant the enchanters and use them to train the team. The reason why 4 handles are projected is because Mike is now "should" be able to project so much. According to him, he "should be" a mage warlock double 5th order, according to the standard of a common spellcaster, a level 9 and a 10 level, there are only 7 spell slots in total, and a prophecy specialization bit is not considered, and it is normal to use 4 and leave 2 for teleportation and escape. Although the Tesren family was a little skeptical, they couldn't think about it, after all, according to their speculation, the lower limit of Mike's strength was indeed a mage warlock double 5th order, and the fifth-order spells should indeed only be 6 or 7, and it was not a lot to use 4.

But in fact, it was already the old yellow calendar in January this year, and it had been almost five months. Now that he is a warlock, he has already reached the 6th level, and he will soon be able to adjust it again to randomly trigger a 6th-order spell refinement half-step - according to the standard of the common spellcaster, it is from level 12 to level 13, and the mage has advanced by half a step on the basis of the 5th order, and according to the standard of the common caster, it is level 10. It was obviously much stronger than his own claim of Warlock Rank 5, Rank 10, Mage, Rank 5, Rank 9.

It's normal to hide the strength of the Taysren family, no one will talk nonsense about this kind of thing, and it's also very convenient to hide it. It was not much necessary to hide the strength of a person like Sermena who was in close contact with every day, and it was more difficult. But it can't be helped, Sermena is just an ignorant native, and her barren intelligence can hardly understand the reasonable upgrade speed of the omnipotent traverser, and the fuss is not clear.

So Mike had to hide in his room and practice secretly.

"Mike, what are you practicing, I haven't understood it for a long time. "Cecilia is also practicing magic, because it is too foul for the fruity water-making technique to be affected by the radiation of the leylines to rise to the second level, so she has been practicing the light technique all this time, and she has practiced the four colors of red, orange, yellow and green in addition to the white light.

"A few spells to protect you from taking down the bad guys, if you want to learn them, I can teach you. ”

"Oh, I'll talk about it when I have time. Cecilia shook her head, she was about to break through the cyan realm in one fell swoop, how could she have time to learn those messy spells.

So the two of them continued to practice their own work.

Mike learns spells, always relying on the high-level spells inspired by the warlock to break through, and then learn the prophecy and change system that he is best at, and then the spells and protection that he is good at, and then it is impossible to learn which of the four major law systems, anyway, he must learn it, even because the forbidden school uses the enchantment and illusion that the mage's talent can't release is the same, anyway, as long as Mr. Owo has him in his memory, he has to learn. First, he can understand more thoroughly after learning, and he can deal with it more calmly when he encounters it, and secondly, if he wants to use it, he can also use the warlock talent to excite it, and the comparison stimulation is faster after memory - the forbidden school just can't release it, and it's not that it can't be remembered, the 5th-order monster immobilization technique is stimulated in this way, although it is already a spell suitable for stimulation by his own bloodline, but it is still faster to compare and stimulate after learning the spell.

Now Mike is practicing a 5th order protection spell, and it is not an ordinary mage protection spell, but the priest's 5th order magic spell resistance, which is used to allow the recipient to obtain spell resistance related to his caster's level for a short time.

Spell Resistance is an extremely useful anti-magic trait that is defensive against almost all offensive spells other than the Solid type. If the caster wants to completely penetrate the target's spell resistance, he or she must have enough condensation of spell power, which requires his caster to be high enough on the one hand, and good enough at the time of casting.

Among the major spell defense methods, the spell counter that dissolves the spell before it takes effect is considered to be the first and safest layer of protection, the most applicable defense method of spell resistance is the second layer of protection, the magic reversal of the protective spell such as the element of resistance or the magic equipment with this kind of spell effect is the third layer, and the fourth layer is the fourth layer with the tenacious body, tenacious will, and quick reflex. The first three defenses are all very good in terms of defensive effects, theoretically they can be completely defended, and the fourth is often only able to reduce but not completely avoid the effect of spells.

It's just that spell countermeasures are generally easy to use when the strength is not much different and the crowd is outnumbered, normal people have no spell resistance, and spell protection can only be done by the master of the law, and if the barbarians are not particularly rich, they can only use the fourth defense method that is not very effective.

Mike, an omnipotent traverser and high-end mage, also has no spell resistance, but he is unwilling to rely only on the third level, which is spell protection, and he needs more and more reliable means of protection.

Spell resistance, a 5th-order magic spell, can allow the target to obtain a spell resistance of "caster level +12", which means that a caster like Mike, who has not specifically practiced spell penetration, has a less than fifty percent chance of completely penetrating the spell resistance he casts, which is obviously extremely useful, and the high-level shepherd especially likes to add this to bully the caster's level is not as good as his own magician.

Such a useful spell, of course, Mike really wanted to learn. It's just that he is not prepared for self-hypnosis, and naturally he can't develop his divine talent, so it is said that he should not be able to use the fifth-order divine magic that this priest can use.

However, mages, especially the Grand Arcanists of the Ancient Nether Empire, are reluctant to self-hypnotize, and they also face the problem of not being able to use the protection and healing spells unique to this type of divine art.

The Grand Arcanists of the Ancient Nether Empire believe that even the ignorant Divine Stick can develop their own talents, master and use all kinds of practical spells, and the elite of the elite of my grand Arcane Empire cannot use them under any circumstances. Is it tolerable or unbearable?!

As a result of extensive long-term research, the Grand Arcanists have developed an alternative technique called Domain Contact, which allows arcane users to perform priest magic in an arcane way, using their existing but untapped magical talents.

This technique is not more difficult to learn than the Super Magic Stunt, but since it is an alternative skill, it is easy to understand that there is a little flaw. The first is that the use requires dual talents, and the mage and priest talents must be able to cast spells of that level, which is extremely demanding for untapped priest talents; In general, the cost performance is far less than to develop the divine talent Sinnoh double cultivation.

But even so, it was enough for the Grand Arcanists who considered themselves "the elite of the elite of my grand arcane empire".

Dual talents are not a problem, they are all talented, even if their own divine talent is insufficient, they can also be transformed and strengthened by the Lich, and if they can't do it, they can still eat books to strengthen it, anyway, there is always a way to meet the standard. As for those mortals who can't reach the goal, love can go as it is.

It wasn't a problem to spend energy, they only needed to learn a few key and unique spells, and the rest could be solved with arcane magic.

We know that although Mike is a human in every way, his essence is still a special lich whose soul has been greatly strengthened by the Mithic core. Even if his own divine talent is very limited, but after being greatly strengthened by the energy core, even if he uses a 7th-order divine skill without development, it is not a problem, and this 5th-order spell resistance is naturally not a problem.

Unlike the elites of the Gunether Empire, who considered themselves noble but still had to work hard to gain spell resistance, the Dark Elves all had spell resistance, the result of a long period of eugenics and brutal elimination. If anyone doesn't, then he's a half-dark elf, a ruling class between a dark elf and a slave.

This also leads to two other phenomena in the Dark Elf society: priests have a higher status than mages, and women have a higher status than men.

The terrain of the underworld is intricate and teleportable, and the arcane arts, which are good at high-speed maneuvering and long-range bombardment, are already greatly limited, and the civil war has spell resistance for both oneself and the enemy, further weakening the importance of the arcane that focuses on defeating enemies and defending against spells. Priests, who excel in healing and self-enhancement, are less restricted. As a result, the Dark Elves generally suppress arcane magic in the society, and priests have a higher status than mages.

Due to the need for brutal elimination and selection of elites, the mortality rate of minors in the dark elves is as high as 50%, which requires a lot of newborns and a lot of women, which makes the elimination rate of women lower than that of men. There was no clear difference between female males in their spell talents, but females had a numerical advantage, with more priests and mages, which gave them a higher status. They took advantage of this position to gradually monopolize the priestly class, further consolidating their dominant position, and eventually forming an overwhelming advantage over men.

Chief Mage of Nîmes is a master of the 6th order of arcane arts, a master of the deep earth prophet and is proficient in the art of enchanting strange objects, and the chief of the Klivan martial arts is a skilled martial artist and a master of arcane arts, and is the most powerful warrior in the family, with exquisite weapons and armor enchantment. Both of them were very important to the Tesren family, but in terms of status, they were second only to the female priests who had mastered the 5th order of divine arts.

The reason why Mike, a male non-dark elf, can receive all kinds of preferential treatment, and he has been issued a family noble badge when he first arrived, and now even Shadurella, the first courtesan of Faturi, can sleep at will, the key reason is not that he has a large amount of trade materials or has laid down a lizard cave or can build a teleportation circle, but that he can kill 11 lizard cavalry in one move and can do that at the same time.

In any society, the more fierce and direct the competition, the more effective the law of the strong is respected or the law of the jungle.

Therefore, Mike thinks that the dark elves have a penchant for shaking M, which is quite consistent with the actual situation to a certain extent.

However, our Mike didn't realize this, he always felt that the dark elf girl who was fighting with him these days must have been defeated by the silver bullet offensive if it wasn't for her charm, and he didn't think that she was a courtesan sent by the Tesren family to make a good relationship and evaluate the possible assassination of the killer.

Sadurilna is one of the best at this, having submitted a report on the possibility of an assassination.

Target code: Business Travel C

Level of Confidentiality: Top Secret

Assassination chances: Many

Assassination probability: Low

The target does not protect itself well, prefers young and beautiful women, and the difficulty of approaching is very low. Frequent intimate contact with several people at the same time, and may fall asleep afterwards. Whether it's intimate contact or sleep, it's an excellent get-away, so there are plenty of opportunities for assassination.

The target can instantly activate the fourth-order arcane, and the spellbook has a fourth-order arcane force field ball and any door, which has the ability to complete protection or escape spells in an instant after being attacked. At the same time, the target's health is very strong, and the probability of not being able to kill in one hit is high. Considering that the target is likely to have multiple means of escape, it is likely that they will be able to obtain perfect magical healing as long as they do not die for a while, so the possibility of assassination is low.

Gina Fei also submitted a report:

Target code: Business Travel C

Chance of Assassination: Less

Assassination probability: Extremely low

The target is strong, very confident in his own strength, and does not mind showing his flaws in front of others, so there is a certain chance of assassination.

The target can instantly activate the fourth-order arcane, and the spellbook has a fourth-order arcane force field ball and any door, which has the ability to complete protection or escape spells in an instant after being attacked.
