Chapter 36: Practicing the Light Technique
However, no matter how hard he practiced, Xia Duo would not be absent from classes every day, and he had lunch in the restaurant on the first floor at noon, and the wine for lunch was cider, and the raw materials were also from the Arcane Garden.
Having been studying under the apple tree, Xia Duo is also very fond of this cider, and it is said that the recipe of the fruit wine in the mage tower is mostly from the elves, and the taste is light, sweet, and evocative.
But if you think about it, you also know that the apprentices are supplied every day can't be genuine elf fruit wine, anyway, Xia Duo can't taste much wine, it's completely a juice mixed with water, and it tastes good.
In this way, it is served for a limited time at lunch every day, and often some people can't get it because they come late.
But Xia Duo never came late, he only arrived early, never late, which may be related to his concept before crossing, Chinese people like bitter first and then sweet, first tight and then loose.
The amount of time required to rest varies from person to person, but it is almost certain for individuals, and it is a science to allocate time reasonably.
But Xia Duo has seen many apprentices who have no concept of time, and always think that as long as they go to bed late and wake up early, they will be able to learn more, but in fact, this is a waste of time.
Of course, Xia Duo will not remind them, one is that people have inherent concepts, and they can not be persuaded by persuasion, and the most important thing is that Xia Duo is not related to them, and even to some extent they are still competitors, how can they be reminded.
……
The afternoon is still the second half of Colin's "Overview of 0 Ring Spells" course - [Reading Magic] and Spell Analysis.
Since Dean had already demonstrated to him, this time Xia Duo didn't need to ask how to practice spellcasting, but asked one of the few questions they left with Donald yesterday.
Before class, Donald didn't tell Xia that a problem had been solved, so Xia Duo chose a question that he himself urgently needed to know and asked Colin after class.
5 gold coins are already beckoning.
After Colin left and the apprentice was disbanded, Donald and the others stayed, and Chardo didn't leave.
"Shado, 5 gold coins!"
Donald placed five gold coins on the cover of Chateau's notes, "There are three questions from yesterday that don't need to be asked, but I'll leave a few questions for today." ”
"No problem."
Donald discussed it with his four friends, and then said, "It's about the structure of the spell, you remember, I found ...... in the process of analysis."
Four questions were reported in a row, and Xia Duo also wrote them down, in fact, there were some questions, he could answer Donald now, and he did the same.
"Donald, I know of an equivalence change in the connection configuration, do you need one? Or 5 gold coins. ”
Donald hesitated, because the question was not raised by him, but by his little friend, and before he could answer, an apprentice named Marcy immediately agreed, "I'll give you 5 gold coins." ”
"Right here?"
Xia Duo pointed around, they were in the corner of the hall on the first floor, but it was already dinner time, and in addition to Donald and the others, other apprentices had already come over one after another.
However, these people who came to eat didn't pay too much attention to them, Xia Duo's subtext was actually asking if he said it in front of Donald and others, which was different from asking questions after class, anyway, everyone in class could listen to them, and paying for Xia Duo to ask the questions he wanted to ask.
But if it is Xia Duo's answer, he naturally hopes that fewer people will listen, which also means that he can answer many times and make more money.
Marcy hesitated, after all, he was only a newly grown child, and 5 gold coins was not a small amount that was dispensable, if he could, of course he was not willing to share it with others, after all, other people and him were not exactly of the same mind.
If everyone had no selfish intentions, the Mage Tower would not be in the same situation as it is today.
"Let's talk about it right here." Marcy didn't choose to listen alone after all.
Xia Duo is not annoyed, he doesn't believe that these people will always share information, as long as someone's progress is a little faster or a little slower, it will immediately cause others to be dissatisfied, and they will also be dissatisfied with others, and it is only a matter of time before the small circle splits.
As for the question of the equivalence change of the connection concept, Xia Duo only listened to Dean mention it in the spell practice room, and because he did not have the permission to cast spells on the first floor of the Mage Tower, Xia Duo could only describe it on parchment through pen strokes.
The process was complicated, but Marcy did not refuse to pay the honorarium, and Xia Duo, who had received the gold coins, was about to leave, and he had a feeling that the five people were about to split.
After taking dinner, Xia Duo did not go to Dean, but went to the library level to rent a spell research room.
In the morning, he had already recorded all the details from the [Light Technique] learning scroll, and although he hadn't fully understood it yet, it didn't prevent him from practicing at all.
He couldn't wait from the moment he finished recording in the morning.
……
Spell Laboratory.
Ignoring the mourning for the 5 gold coins that had just arrived and left quickly, Xia Duo had already devoted himself to the practice of the [Light Technique].
The structure of this spell is quite simple, according to Xia Duo's understanding, it can be roughly divided into two parts: pulling positive energy and shaping into a sphere, of which shaping is the easiest, because energy does not care about the form, there is no fixed change trend, and it can be changed at will.
It's just a specific shape for the sake of a specific effect.
For example, in order to provide the widest, longest, and most stable light source for [Luminography], it is a good choice to use a spherical shape, which can be shaped into a lamp, of course.
But the positive energy will not be concentrated enough, and it will appear even more bleak.
At the beginning stage, Xia Duo did not think about how to improve and change the structure of the spell, and cast spells exactly according to the operation of the learning scroll.
Focus, into the vision of magic, the calm magic net is waiting for him, the first attempt because of unskillful, resulting in too long a long time to attract positive energy, the distorted part of the structure of the magic net is flattened, and the traction of positive energy fails.
At the moment of defeat, Xia Duo felt that the magic net in front of him fluctuated violently in an arm-long place, but then calmed down again, Xia Duo was shocked, if this was outside the laboratory, maybe it would affect himself.
I don't know what the consequences will be if the [Light Technique] fails!
Anyway, no matter what the consequences were, Xia Duo was reluctant to try it himself.
……
The first attempt ended in failure, and Xia Duo was not discouraged, he didn't think that he would succeed in the first practice at all, but just now he had the idea of contempt in his heart.
Next, Xia Duo dismantled the spell structure of [Luminaturism] until he could not dismantle it, and it existed in a form similar to [Magic Trick].
Each of the discrete structures can trigger the magic web, but the effect is extremely weak, and most of them exist in the form of shimmering light.
In this way, Shado repeated the practice mechanically, until he felt a little more proficient, and was about to try it in its full form, but—
Time is running out!
