Chapter 32: Energy Rays

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it was late September.

In order to find time to study magic, Richard tried to hand over military duties to Deputy Squadron Leader Dida as much as possible.

Dida was Richard's comrade-in-arms in the 6th Squadron and the squadron's marksman.

The two teamed up to kill Wald, a fifth-order lion-headed man, and Dida made a meritorious achievement, exchanged the breathing method, and was promoted to a professional and became Richard's deputy.

Because of this relationship, the two got along well, with Dida helping, Richard got rid of a lot of trivial things, he practiced breathing in the morning, meditated in the evening, and practiced various skills in the afternoon.

Every day, every hour, every minute, is clearly arranged. This extremely strong self-discipline made the soldiers of the 7th Squadron dumbfounded, and many people secretly admired it.

At the age of young admiration, he can endure all kinds of temptations and live an ascetic life in the military camp, such a person is also very rare in the Dawn Continent.

Only ambitious and power-hungry people can endure such hardships for a long time.

Ordinary people have conditions like Richard, and the most important thing every day is to communicate with a delicate and sexy aristocratic lady. It's no better to talk to each other about the meaning of life than to endure pain every day in the barracks.

So it's no wonder that Richard was young, and he walked the heights that many soldiers couldn't reach in their lifetime. In addition to being open-minded, Richard's self-discipline, studiousness, and patience are all key factors.

Seeing that it is late autumn, once the heavy snow covers the mountain, the invading orc army is blocked at the southern foot of the mountain range.

When the time comes, the human kingdom will increase reinforcements, and the orc army stationed at the southern foot of the Eagle Mountain Range will lose their support, which will inevitably be the end of the total annihilation. So from late August, the orc army withdrew from the mountain roads with the looted population and supplies.

The orcs gradually withdrew, and communication gradually began to resume.

Richard finally received news from his father, William, and his second brother, Barron.

His father, William, and his third uncle, Bernie, were safe and sound, and sent a handwritten letter to report their safety.

The second brother, Barron, sent a death notice.

From the death notice, Richard learned that Barron had died near Fort Eagle.

The process of dying in battle is also very clear.

After Barron and his brigade were left behind, it was a very brutal battle, and only a few escaped from the battle. Barron was not the lucky one, and like most soldiers, he died at the hands of the orcs.

Because the Eagle Castle was still in the hands of the orc army for the time being, Barron didn't even have anyone to collect the bones.

Many orc races have a habit of cannibalism, and many of the human soldiers who died in the orc-controlled area did not even have bones.

Barron, like Ron, was the son of William's first wife.

He was seven years older than Richard, and he was not the same mother, so they did not have a very close relationship with each other.

By the time Richard had been reborn into this world, the Ron and Barron brothers had entered the Knight Academy. The brothers also rarely see each other, and can only spend a few days a year together during the Christmas break.

But after all, they are brothers from the same family, and when they heard the news of Barron's death, Richard's heart was also very uncomfortable.

When Ron heard the news of his brother's death, he couldn't help but cry bitterly. They are the same mother, they have been together since childhood, have the same memories, and have the deepest relationship.

After a month of hard study, Richard spent almost all of his free time learning magic, and finally engraved the first complete rune in the mental power space and learned the first spell in his life.

This spell is called Energy Ray, and it is a precursor spell for a ring of magical energy missiles. And the famous Three-Ring Magic Fireball Technique, the pre-spell is the Energy Missile.

If you want to learn the most cost-effective three-ring magic fireball technique in war, you must first learn the one-ring magic energy missile.

To learn the Energy Missile, you must learn the Zero Ring Magic Energy Ray.

Ordinary energy mages will choose to learn energy rays. After learning about the Energy Ray, the Properties panel changed again.

Unlike physical combat skills, magicians burn magic runes in the mental power space, which is equivalent to mastering spells completely.

A legendary magician and a magic apprentice, when using the magic of energy rays, there is no essential difference, they are both magic runes that invest spiritual power and mobilize magic to hook the spiritual space.

The only difference is between the timing of the spell and the amount of mental power invested.

The timing of the release of magic depends on the talent and experience of the magician, and even the attribute panel cannot enhance this ability.

After working hard for a month, I learned the first zero ring magic, and my mental power also increased by 0.2 points.

However, the experience of meditation has increased relatively little, and according to Richard's estimate, without killing experience, even if it is promoted to a high-level magic apprentice, it will take about a year of effort.

Richard's mental power is very strong, and if he puts one-fifth of his mental power into the magic of energy rays, the power of this magic will be greatly enhanced, reaching the level of a ring spell.

The lethality of this magic is not much different from Richard's killing enemies with a bow and arrow.

However, using magic to kill people is more subtle, and it only takes three seconds to prepare the opportunity to kill your opponent by surprise.

Moreover, after the arrows are consumed, Richard can also use magic to hit the opponent with a few energy rays.

The energy rays have a long range, reaching a maximum distance of more than 100 meters. Although it is not as good as the enchanted bow used by Richard, the killing distance is also sufficient.

In mid-October, the half-year-long war finally came to an end. The orcs withdrew from the Eagle Mountains, and heavy snow fell, blocking the mountain road.

The Lion Legion also ended its mobilization, and the Eighth Brigade was transferred back to garrison near Fort Blaze.

The regimental headquarters issued medals to the soldiers who participated in the battle, and Richard had three more badges on his chest, a medal for the meritorious officer, a medal for the defense of Pratos, and a medal for the Silver Star.

Pratos Defensive Battle Medal, which is available to every soldier who has participated in the defensive battle.

The Medal of Merit is relatively rare, and only half of the more than 30 first-class officers of the 8th Brigade can get their hands on the meritorious service.

In a war, accumulate the next great merit to get the Silver Star Medal.

Of the more than 1,000 officers and men of the Eighth Brigade, only two received the Silver Star Medal, except for Richard who was the captain of the group, Sharp.

After the war, Roland also sent in an application for discharge. With the loss of a leg, Roland could not have retained his position in the army.

Barely staying in the army, but only doing some job as a warehouse guard.

If you can't make military achievements, you naturally have no hope of becoming a nobleman.

After joining the army for many years, Roland was not short of gold coins, and seeing that there was no hope of being promoted to a hereditary nobleman, Roland was ready to return to his hometown of Fort Letterte and spend the rest of his life.

Roland came from a family of professionals and joined the military for three generations. His father died on the battlefield, Roland was more talented, and his official position was higher, after all, it was difficult to take this crucial step and lead his family to become a hereditary nobleman.
