In Nesser, magic, and of course spells in particular, can generally be divided into three broad categories, namely creation, change, and mind.

Creation, as the name suggests, often involves creating something out of nothing, of course, this is on the surface, everything always has a source, but at least it seems like something is out of thin air.

Spells such as [Mage Armor], [Fireball], and [Summoning Mounts] can all be classified as creation.

The change system, on the other hand, is mainly the change in the state of the object itself, of course, the object is not limited to living or dead things, or even the plane itself or some kind of conceptual event.

For example, [Mage's Hand], [Flying Technique], [Incarnate Earth and Stone], [Dismantling Magic], [Teleportation], etc., are all considered transformation spells.

The final psychic system involves consciousness, senses, and even soul and self, such as the series of judgment spells mastered by Xia Duo, and the newly created [Psychic Link] that later belongs to this category.

These three categories are not absolute, they are just a simple distinction made empirically, and it is not impossible for a spell to span two categories, or even three.

For example, the magic on the dragon skin scroll obtained from the elven refugees owned by Xia Duo blocks teleportation and restricts flight in a wide range, which is obviously a change system.

And the indiscriminate lightning attack other than the caster undoubtedly belongs to the creation system.

In other words, the spell contains elements of both categories, so it is actually possible to classify it in either category.

In addition, there are some special spells such as necromancy or prophecy, which can actually be classified into these three categories, and are classified according to the specific spell effect.

From this point of view, magic is actually more of an applied technology, and most people study spells not for the principles behind them, but for a certain purpose.

Even if they are arcanists, how many of them are bent on pursuing the highest level of magic, and don't care about the external effects it brings!

Becoming an Arcanist is not closer to the truth, but closer to the pinnacle of power and power, and even Shado did not study magic for the purpose of being pure in the first place.

Even now, there are only some more ideal colors, and the ideal can be combined with reality, and there is the possibility of realization, that is called the ideal.

If not, it can only be called utopianism.

Xia Duo is not qualified to dream for the time being, maybe those great arcanists can have, and even for one of their fantasies, they can pull people from all over the world to mess around with them.

……

As he flipped through Archmage Gretta's writings, his thoughts divergent as much as he could, and Shado felt as if he was about to fall asleep.

Fortunately, the tea leaves were soaked in time, and the original penetrating fresh smell of the original leaves of Bonu had become nonexistent at this time.

Occasionally, it makes people feel refreshed, but this kind of stimulation is still too shallow, Xia Duo didn't care about the water temperature and was a little hot, so he took a sip directly.

First, the tea itself was hot, and then a strong sense of coolness erupted from the mouth and rushed straight to the brain.

Somewhat similar to mint, Xia Duo has eaten mints on the earth and drunk the mint wine of the elves after crossing over, but the coolness still only stays on the direct touch of the flesh.

However, the tea brewed from the original leaves of Bonu is different, the water temperature itself is very hot, and the coolness is more like reflecting on the soul, making people feel refreshed.

And its bigger difference with mint is that the mint is still cool after it is cool, and the taste of mint itself is not layered, while Bonu tea, after cooling, turns to be warm.

The warmth and softness of the soul level seem to have a pair of invisible little hands soothing the tired spirit, but this comfort does not cause drowsiness, but makes people extraordinarily awake.

I have to say that this Bono tea is simply the best thing for the caster!

……

Xia Duo drank tea while continuing to flip through "Gretta's Psychic Protection", except for the introduction of the principle of the action of the psychic spell at the beginning, there is almost nothing in the back.

And the principle introduced by Greta is not much different from what Xia Duo himself has studied, which also affirms Xia Duo's research.

The so-called mind spell is indeed based on the caster's own mind as the core, projecting part of the consciousness and will to affect others.

Thus two branches may eventually be elicited, which Chardo had speculated before, and this time, he saw a similar statement in Gretta's book.

Some mages who specialize in spiritual spells tend to strengthen their hearts and minds, thus enhancing the effect of projection.

Some mages are more inclined to amplify the influence of their own mind and will during the projection process, and at the same time, they also have a weakening of the target's will.

Of course, it can also be done at the same time, depending on the level of attainment of the specific mage in the field of psychic magic.

……

Archmage Greta knows mind spells, which Xia Duo has known for a long time, and the princess has specially sent her over to interrogate Aguilaine about Lord Hawke.

But whether Greta specializes in spiritual magic, Xia Duo is not very clear, but now, through the book "Gretta's Psychic Protection" in his hand, he feels that the other party may really be quite profound in the field of psychic magic!

When the two of them traded, they were talking about exchanging [Psychic Barrier] for [Psychic Link], but in fact, there is not only one [Psychic Barrier] spell in this book.

It's a whole series of spells about psychic protection!

There are 1 to 3 rings of the [Firm Will] series, which mainly focus on strengthening one's own will to resist psychic magic, which is also a common psychic protection spell attached to the [Psychic Talisman] on the market.

From 3 rings to 5 rings, there is also the [Will Shield] series, which mainly focuses on external protection, mainly reflected in the will aspect, if the enemy attacks from consciousness or other angles, the effect will be reduced.

After that, there is the fully protected [Mind Barrier], from 6 rings to 8 rings.

This is almost a perfect upgrade route for a new mage to start from scratch and go to the path of a psychic protection archmage!

Of course, this book is not very long, and it does not record all the spells of these three series, only one 1 ring [Firm Will], a 3 ring [Will Shield] and a 6 ring [Mind Barrier].

However, Greta gives the idea of ascending the ring in the book, and the effect that the corresponding high-ring spell should have, which may be a little insufficient for the average mage.

But for Xia Duo, what is the difference between this and putting the whole set of spells directly in front of him?

And all he paid was a 7-ring [Soul Link] learning scroll, which was really a big deal!

Well, maybe Archmage Greta really thinks that he is showing favor and investing in him, after all, in that case, the other party can say nothing and not mention the transaction!

Xia Duo thought to himself, maybe the fact that Greta said that the Seven Towers spread his reputation was really only good and not bad.

After he had no worries about his soul, he re-examined the matter, and his attitude changed slightly.
