0071 Learn Magic-1

Jialan's days seem to be leisurely, and she feels as if she has returned to the life trajectory of the previous era, reading books and attending classes every day, studying some strange things that are not there, the only difference is that he used to give lectures to others, but now he is listening to others' lectures.

Every few days, Jialan would receive a notice from Donaldson, the third-year subject teacher of the Water Element Department, to go to the academy research institute to participate in some elemental exclusion tests, and in exchange for her status as a special auditor and librarian, Jialan had to go to the academy research institute on time to serve those magic professors.

Fortunately, Jialan's strong intellectual curiosity and diligent attitude made the magic professors in the institute very friendly to him.

Jialan's "demon-repelling physique" made magic professors very sorry, because his talent in [Pharmacy], [Alchemy] and other disciplines surprised magic professors.

It's a pity that no matter what kind of discipline it is, once it comes to the advanced stage, it is inseparable from various elemental abilities, and he can't gather the special constitution of the elements, so he is destined to not go too far on the road of magic.

But this does not prevent the magic professors from liking Jialan, a diligent and studious "special student" with excellent comprehension ability, and in addition to the elemental rejection test, they also gradually allow him to participate in the magic test he presided over to get started, such as preparing experimental materials, cleaning experimental equipment, and so on.

What is surprising is that this student with a special physique has a very strong comprehension in this regard, although he does not have the ability to elements, but he has his unique insight into the understanding of various magic tests, and can quickly grasp the rhythm of magic tests, and prepare the test tools they need to use at any time.

In addition to not being able to really assist them in the magic test, when Jialan was present, it was far more comfortable than other clumsy test assistants, and the magic test was also done exceptionally smoothly.

Professor Taylor, the head of the alchemy laboratory, even took a fancy to Jialan because of this, and planned to recruit him into the alchemy institute to become a trainee alchemy test assistant.

In this case, Jialan could only smile bitterly, it didn't matter if he was the assistant of the test or something, after all, this was a very familiar daily work that he had done since he was by the teacher's side.

But he had to hide his ability as much as possible to play the role of a "demon repellent physique" tester, and he only looked at the various experiments he was very interested in, resulting in itchy hands many times.

Most of the time, he can only use the repulsion of the elements to simulate the effect of the "demon repulsion physique", so this kind of research is destined to have no results in him, but the magic professors are happy to carry out various elemental reaction tests.

Through reading a lot of books in the library for "self-study", Jialan has basically mastered the basic magic theory knowledge from one to nine school years, and has begun to involve the elementary magic theory knowledge on the second floor of the library.

But the more she learned, the more Jialan discovered the difference between "arcane" and "magic", and the magicians of this era had broken away from the category of the [elemental sub-school] that Jialan was familiar with, and formed a new system.

For example, magicians manipulate the elemental particles in their bodies through mental power, and the energy they call "magic power" directly forms magic, which causes their spell casting speed to be quite amazing, and they can have quite strong spell casting ability without any spell casting preparation.

This spell casting mode made Jia Lan amazed, and began to gradually study whether he could also master this spell casting mode, although he was unable to gather elemental particles in his body like a magician because of the existence of the arcane energy spring in his body, but this did not prevent him from controlling the elements.

In the [Plastic Energy Department] Elemental Sub-School, there is a small 0-order spell called [Elemental Sample], which can gather the four elemental substances of "air, earth, fire, and water", which was originally only used in some spell tests, but now, it is used by Jialan as a means of "simulating" magic.

Speaking of "casting", we have to talk about the difference between "arcane" and "magical" spellcasting modes.

In addition to the importance of the caster's own arcane ability, the arcane secret art is often related to various "spell components" such as "spells, spell marks, spell casting materials, spell casting equipment, magic weapons" and so on.

Spells, also known as "spells", activate the spell effect through a certain volume, audio, intonation, and language through a certain rhythm;

The spell seal, also known as the "mudra" or "spell casting gesture", connects the arcane nodes to activate the spell effect through the caster's arms, wrists, and fingers touching each other, waving, and drawing;

Spell casting materials, that is, by consuming materials with the same or similar properties as spells, to guide the release of spells and amplify the effect of spells;

Spell casting equipment, props needed in the process of releasing spells;

Ritual weapons, staffs, arcane instruments and other items can be called magic weapons, as long as they contain arcane energy ingredients;

The more advanced the spell, the more spell components are often involved, and the more complicated the spell casting process is, the combination of spells, spell marks, spell casting materials, and spell casting equipment makes spell casting a mysterious skill that ordinary people cannot master.

When releasing spells, magicians can directly control the output of "magic power" in the body through mental power, and recite spells to activate the spell effect.

In this regard, mages are much more convenient than mages, of course, this is probably related to the fact that mages only use elemental energy, although they also use some magic spices, but most of them are used to obtain spell amplification effects, not to guide the release of spells.

Interestingly, when it comes to the use of magic weapons, magicians and arcane mages are the opposite.

Arcane mages, whether high-level or low-level, can cast spells without a magic weapon such as a staff, and most of the purpose of using magic weapons is to use the amplification effect or special functions of magic weapons.

Moreover, usually only high-level spellcasters are eligible to use staffs, and low-level casters are not able to exert the effects and power of staffs at all, so low-level spellcasters are proud to have a staff of their own.

But the mage is the opposite, the lower the mage, the greater the dependence on the "wand", and the high-level mage does not need the help of the wand.
