0135 Academic Mage
Jialan, who was wrapped in a cloud of wind elements and flew forward, was honestly quite depressed.
Perhaps in the eyes of these mercenaries and magicians of the Golden Two-Headed Dragon Mercenary Group, he, a magician with a mysterious background, is "extremely powerful", and it seems that he is still a "full-range magician" that is almost impossible to exist in legends.
However, in fact, only Jialan himself knew that his true implementation level was only limited to the level of "Advanced Mage Apprentice", and he was not even a formal "arcane secret spellcaster" at present.
It is undeniable that Jialan's strength is indeed "very strong", and the twenty years of life experience in the Fort Collanburg Library, the profound knowledge system he has accumulated, and the rich practical experience he has experienced under the guidance of the 13th-order legendary teacher, make Jialan handy in any field.
Coupled with the difference of the times, the environmental changes in the space with a hundredfold concentration of arcane energy and a thousandfold element density made him, a mage apprentice who originally had no combat ability, become a "strong man" in the eyes of others.
But in fact, the gap in rank cannot be bridged by knowledge alone.
In pre-civilizations, the term "spellcaster" was a general term for "arcane mage, arcane mage, magician, sorcerer, sorcerer, psychic, shadow magician...... and a large number of other different factions of spellcasters, generally referred to simply as "mage" or "warlock".
Whether it is a "mage" or a "warlock", when using spells, the principle of casting spells is the same, and they cannot be separated from the root of arcane secret arts, which involves a problem of "casting level".
The so-called "spell casting level" does not refer to the "level" of magic strength mastered by magicians in the current era, but refers to the level of "spell structure".
In the arcane mystic system, spells are constructed from different "runic components". The higher the level of the spell, the greater the number of rune components, the more complex the structure, and on top of the planar components of the spell structure, the more complex "multiple" and "phase" are also designed.
The commonly known "first-order spells, second-order spells" actually refer to the fact that the spell structure contains several elements and contains "one element", which is called "one-element spell" or "one-ring spell". contains "duality", which is called "duality spell" or "two-ring spell".
When it comes to "phase", it becomes "one-dimensional single-phase spell", "one-element two-phase spell", "two-element three-phase spell...... The details of such a spell structure are too complicated. Skip it for now.
With Jialan's strength, he only built "Tier 0 Spells" in the previous civilization. Or "Zero Ring Spell", "Zero Element Spell". To put it bluntly, it is an apprentice spell, and at most it only involves a small number of "monary spells".
However, most of the 0-level spells are "single-component spells", and when the spell is released, only the basic spell effect is presented. So far, although Jialan's knowledge of arcane methods is profound, she can't unleash spells with complex effects.
For example, "Flying Technique" is among the arcane mystical arts. This is a "three-element three-phase" spell, and the complexity of its spell structure is not something that the current Jialan can control for the time being.
Even if he knew the detailed "Flying Technique" to cast spells and spell gestures, it was useless, and he didn't personally build a spell model of the "Flying Technique", and if he couldn't release it, he couldn't release it.
In this regard, it is not as simple and direct as the magicians of the current era, regardless of what structure and phase, and simply manipulate the elements to achieve their own goals.
Although it is said that the "Wind Flying Technique" of the Wind Magician and the "Flying Technique" of the Dao he knows are not the same thing in essence, even if the flight is not high, the flight is still slow, not so much "flying", but floating in the sky in a suspended state, blown around by the air current.
And "flying technique", as far as Jialan knows, even the most elementary effect, can reach an altitude of 200 meters above sea level and a speed of 20 meters per second, which is equivalent to a speed of more than 70 kilometers per hour, and advanced flying skills, it can reach an altitude of 1000 meters above sea level and a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour.
At a height of no more than 20 meters, floating slowly in the sky, what is the difference between this and a live target...... Okay, but people are flying anyway, aren't they?
Jialan, who had no choice, had to tense her nerves for twelve points in order to save her life, summoning four wind balls to shoot down the swarm of rats that were participating in the "high jump competition" below!
I have to admit that Jialan's idea of getting close to the rat queen is too risky, and the rat swarm that originally besieged the mercenaries were attracted by them, and piled up a turbulent and fluctuating "rat mountain" below them.
To be honest, watching the scene of huge rats, scrambling to step on the bodies of their companions and struggling to pounce into the air, is indeed a bit inspirational, but for the two magicians who act as "targets" in the air, it doesn't feel so good.
Hearing a dark demon rat less than two or three meters away from his feet, the "click" sound made when the fangs were bitten, he didn't plan to deal with these minions, he planned to capture the thief and capture the king first, and directly destroy the rat after Jialan, so he had to wave his wand, planning to give them a hard time.
Jialan, who had originally planned to give "Rat Mountain" a "Level 10 Runaway Fireball", had just injected the fire element substance into her wand when she felt her body sink sharply, and an exclamation from the wind system intermediate magician Rika also came from her ears.
Jia Lan hurriedly dispelled the gathered fire elementals, cold sweat broke out, he was too close to the Rica mage who was maintaining the Wind Flying Technique, and his simulation magic had too strong an effect on the elemental particles in the environment, which could easily affect the stability of other elemental magic.
Fortunately when he released the Wind Ball, this time it replaced the fire magic, and it almost didn't directly destroy Rica Mage's Wind Magic.
As two magicians, you can't die if you fall, but the problem is that there is not only the hard ground below, but also a large number of big rats that have been piled up.
Since the blasting fire magic could not be used, and the damage of the wind magic to the Rat Mountain was small, Jia Lan had no choice but to find another way, he took out the clay bottles from his pocket one by one, and smashed them down hard towards the Rat Mountain, throwing dozens of bottles!
Rica Magician, who had just been taken aback, asked in shock, "Jialan Magician, what did you throw down?"
"Uh, nothing, a kind of alchemy oil......"
After seeing that the tumbling rat pile was almost contaminated, and the black oil flowing from the broken clay bottle, Jialan felt out a black stone the size of an egg, and reminded him: "Rica Magician, stabilize the Wind Flying Technique, there may be some air currents impacting ......" and slammed the black stone in his hand down.
An explosion and a flash of fire were heard, and the rat pile on the ground was suddenly covered in a spreading flame!
I saw the dark demon rats covered in flames, screaming and scattering in all directions, the originally piled up rat mountain quickly collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, the dark demon rats on fire were all running around the rat cage hall!
The dark demon rats whose fur was stained with black oil had lost their minds after being burned by the flames, and they rushed and bit frantically regardless of whether they were enemies or enemies, and soon rubbed the fire oil on their bodies to other innocent dark demon rats, passing on ten, hundred......
Everyone was stunned to see the chaotic scene in front of them, even Jialan herself was dumbfounded, this was an unexpected situation, and he couldn't help but have an exotic phrase in his mind: "A spark can start a prairie fire!"
The swarm of rats in the rat cage hall is too dense, and the number of dark demon rats summoned by the rat queen has exceeded two thousand, almost densely crowded together, and there are nearly a hundred dark demon rats covered in black oil at this moment, crashing around with blazing flames, which soon ignited the thick fur on the other dark demon rats.
And a large number of dark demon rats crowded together were like a group of fluffy flintvels, passed one by one, and soon the hall was full of big rats with fire all over the place, jumping and screaming wildly, like a pot of boiling hot water!
Jialan, who looked stupid, suddenly reacted, and her face changed: "It's not good! Let's go back quickly!"
Rica Magician also understood what Jialan meant, and desperately urged the Wind Flying Technique to fly in the direction of the secret door, and had to keep lowering the height...... Billowing black smoke had begun to take over the dome of the Squirrel Hall.
As soon as she fell back into the defensive array formed by the mercenaries, Jia Lan waved her wand, and a thick earth thorn smashed the earth wall that the earth magician had sealed the secret door, and a fireball smashed it over, blasting the rats behind the door away, shouting: "Run!"
Jialan, who opened the way of the wind ball, was the first to rush out of the rat cage hall, and the mercenaries, who also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, followed him and quickly withdrew from the secret door.
Fortunately, there were not many dark demon rats that went around behind everyone from the other rat holes, and they were quickly slaughtered in front of the mercenaries and magicians who had already begun to fight hard, and when everyone withdrew from the secret door, the earth magicians sealed the secret door with the earth wall again.
And the thieves scattered in all directions, looking for the nearby smoke, and the earth magicians sealed them one by one!
Seeing that everyone was safe, Jialan breathed a sigh of relief, and when she looked up, she found that everyone was looking at him directly, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't do it, this was the third time he almost killed his own people, right?
Jialan herself was also very frustrated, is this the end of the lack of adventure experience? No wonder in the pre-civilization, those adventurers would jokingly call mages like him "academic mages", saying that they had rich theoretical knowledge and little practical experience......
