968. Guess

Lan En fought the mages quite a few times, but most of them focused on the Battle of Soden.

The attacks of the Southern mages rained down like raindrops.

Those mages basically seemed to be crazy in order to be able to evacuate to safety alive and not be liquidated by the country.

Completely ignoring the dangerous nature of chaos magic, he overloaded his spells.

Of course, the mages of the north are similar.

And in that battle, the obstacles caused by the Southern mages to Lan En were basically . Probably a little bigger than the choking smoke on the battlefield.

On the one hand, most of the mages transferred by Nilfgaard are very low-level, and even the level of the magic academy has not yet graduated, and the main one is large.

This was a decision made by the then commander of Nilfgaard, Menno Kuhoun, after being tactically deceived by Ranne.

It's a deliberate decision that is guided.

On the other hand, although there are only about twenty mages in the northern countries, each of them is a great mage.

This is the most common fireball technique in the hands of mages.

And now.

"Huh~"

Users of the same dangerous Chaos Magic are treated differently with the naked eye.

Lan En could easily 'smash' a fireball spell, but if he was to take a direct and unresponsive hit, then he would probably have to suffer a lot of injuries.

In the explosion, the butler himself and a knight in heavy armor were shattered on the spot.

But that's not a reason to underestimate the Warlocks' fireball skills.

But the archmage is the archmage, and the spellcasters of the northern countries suppress the spellcasters of the opposing side very well.

Most of the spell structures of those Nilfgaard mages were not advanced, so it was easy for Lan to break them.

Although the gap between the title of Archmage may be greater than that of Archmage and Apprentice.

In this world, the common reasons for mages to be deflated are 'unprepared', 'sneak attack', 'surprise attack', 'restrained', 'unable to react', and rarely 'not destructive'.

How else to say 'noble mage', 'lowly witcher'?

The witchers of the Wolf School probably never dared to imagine that they could have this kind of spell strength in their lives, and the highest output of their [Ignyi Law Seal] was the level of a Martian spray gun.

In the Manor of Duke Stessa in Temeria, the Wizard Butler was in the hallway with a fireball ready to go, and then it was disturbed by Rann until the fireball got out of control.

"If Viselmir saw this, tsk."

The fine armor on the knight's body is expensive, so that ordinary people can only leave white marks and small depressions when they cut it casually with a sword, and the armor cannot be cut through at all.

It was blown into fragments and turned into grenades, blowing everyone in the hallway.

Lan En raised an eyebrow and whistled cheerfully.

A mage's fireball technique at a normal level hitting a soldier wearing standard armor should be enough to blow the armor-wearing body to pieces.

So when Lan En faced those spells flying around on the battlefield, he basically swept away the [Spiritual Vision], and then Arondait, who was full of the divine power of the lady in the lake, cut along the line of sight.

Even the shards of the armor are enough to burst out, dealing secondary fragment damage to the surrounding area.

The spell is gone.

Scorched monsters' fur has to be sprayed for more than two seconds. It can't be burned through, and there is no muscle under the monster's fur.

The effect of the spell fireball is completely oversized for a witcher who can only use a few magic tricks.

"Looks like I'm a spellcaster too."

Lan En smiled lightly, and on the retina, Mentos's data collection for this spell had also been completed.

"The physiological fluctuations of the main body during this spell casting are as follows: The heat fluctuation data of the spell fire is being exported."

Biochemical Brain said in the voice of a British butler who usually sounded quite stylish.

Of course, if the biological brain wants to choke people, this tone will also make Lan En angry.

No problem, you can choose it yourself.

Lan En glanced at it, and immediately keenly noticed the difference between spell casting and spell sealing.

"The chaos magic in my body is not consumed, but the strength of the brain waves is slightly weakened. Do spells consume spirit? ”

Mentos hurriedly blew a rainbow fart upward.

"Precise understanding, sir. The release of the spell fire seems to be similar to how you reacted when you first used the [Block] skill. They consume the same energy – the spirit of the liberator. ”

"In the world of fire, this should be called [Soul Power]."

Lan En nodded, it wasn't a big deal.

The Demon Hunter's chaotic magic power relied on his body, and with his physical fitness, it was no big deal to release the magic seal nearly ten times in a row, and he recovered quickly.

On the other hand, the spirit is not very well restored, and can only be done through meditation or activities such as sleep and rest.

But after installing the [Holy Song Gland] on himself, Lan's spiritual recovery speed was also very fast.

If in the subsequent Space Marines augmentation surgery, a [nerve knot] is implanted in the occipital foramen of the back of the head.

Then this strengthened organ will be able to adjust the original law of rest of the space soldier's brain, so that the human brain can alternate between sleeping and resting on the left and right hemispheres like a dolphin.

At that time, his mental recovery speed will directly increase exponentially.

Next, the Biological Intelligence Brain pointed out the points that could be improved in the process of casting spells, as well as various minor mistakes, just like when Lan En practiced the magic seal before.

This ability to summarize, generalize, and correct mistakes is the source of the super learning ability of the citizens of the Human Federation in the interstellar era.

Fireballs, as the most basic spells, do not involve many knowledge points, and Lan En is also mastering the knowledge in the Onuma spell book with very rapid progress.

Among the basic spells of Onuma, if you turn back, you will find that the spells not only burn and control the flames, but also have some other techniques.

For example, [spewing poisonous mist], as well as [intense sweating] and [intense oil sweating].

These spells do not involve fire on the surface, though.

But in reality, Lan En had a keen insight into what was beneath the surface of these spells.

On the palm of Lan's left hand, the flickering flames first rose in a burst of heat, and the heat drove the air to pop.

The operation of spells has its own flow, but Lan En has already turned on [Spiritual Vision], observing the transformation of the spell flame under the spell throughout the process.

When the flames swelled to the size of a palm, Lan En did not hesitate to slap his left hand to his chest.

It's a very different feeling from casting a Fireball.

The power in his body gathers in his left hand and becomes the fire of spells. And after the spell fire was transformed into a spell, it was slapped into his chest and began to work.

The transformation of heat was clearer than ever before in Lanen's perception.

After the flames of the spell entered his body, a burst of white mist suddenly burst out from the surface of Lan En's body.

These white mist shrouded the whole body, and it was only a layer of about ten centimeters thick, fitting the contours of the human body.

"[Spell: Sweating Violently]."

Lan En muttered as he clenched his fists, jumped, and did various adaptive activities.

[Intense Sweating] is a spell that incorporates fire into the body and greatly resists heat damage through the mist caused by sweating.

But Lan En could see it very clearly, if this layer of water mist less than ten centimeters thick on his body could really greatly reduce the damage of high heat, then it would be a hell of a thing.

"Unless 'water mist' is not simply 'water mist'."

Lan's head and face were also wrapped in white mist, and magically did not affect his vision.

[Spiritual Vision] can directly observe this layer of white fog.

"A lot of sweat is indeed a medium, but what cuts off heat damage is hidden even deeper."

Within a few breaths, the white mist on Lan En's body gradually faded until it disappeared into nothingness.

It was also the first time he had cast this spell.

[Fireball] that releases flames, [Intense Sweating] that incorporates flames into the body.

The two basic spells of the spell were successful only the first time they were cast.

Even if nothing else, even if this ability to learn spells made Konicus look through the history of Onuma's master-apprentice inheritance, it is estimated that he will not be able to find a few.

And Lan En didn't stop there, casting the spell only made him a little happy, similar to getting a new toy.

However, analyzing and observing the core and underlying logic of the spell made him very interested.

"The key to [intense sweating] is not sweating, but incorporating fire into the body, through which a little sweat changes its properties and has the power to resist the heat."

The effect of the spell lasted only a few seconds due to Lan En's mistake and lack of skill in casting the spell, but when the white mist disappeared from his body, the witcher's deep eyes did not change back to their normal appearance.

In the same way, the process of Mentos on the retina is brushing down like a waterfall.

"I remember that Koenigus had solemnly admonished me."

Suddenly, the witcher, who looked down at the flame on the palm of his left hand, muttered softly.

"He said: Izaris, the source of the spell of the past, was destroyed by the flames of his own making."

"He also said: The flames of that time distorted life."

The new logic-based speculation was submitted to Mentos by Lan's mind, and was deduced based on the data it had collected during the spell casting, as well as its own computing power.

The speculation is: Is the deep meaning of the so-called flame of spell not 'burning' and 'high temperature' in the conventional sense, but 'interference with life'?

In the world of fire, all intelligence and life are born from the burning of the initial flame.

The ancient trees and dragons that appeared before this were all inorganic things, so they could be immortal.

And in such a case, does the flame itself take on the meaning of 'life' beyond its original nature?

When Lane turned this hypothesis over to Mentos for data verification.

He suddenly felt that the computing power of the biochemical brain was occupied in an instant.

Mentos' speed slowed.

But at the same time, the corners of Lan En's mouth were already slightly hooked.

Mentos also sent out congratulations.

"The parsing task has been constructed, sir. I think you're on the right track. ”
