After breakfast, Leo said goodbye to Isha and John, and went alone to the open space outside the side gate of the castle, and looked at the mountain of iron ingots, almost forty or fifty pieces, and could not help but sigh.

From here to the warehouse, it is about 300 meters away, and it takes ten minutes to go back and forth, and you can move up to six pieces in an hour. In other words, he had to work non-stop for ten hours before he had a chance to get the job done. And that's not even counting the rest time that is essential after the move.

"With my current situation, I can move three pieces in an hour, which should be the limit. Leo thought silently.

Of course, he will not sit still, and he has some ideas about how to solve this problem, but he does not know if he will succeed.

"You have to use the power of magic, this can be used just right, the change is level zero magic, the mage's hand: according to the caster's spiritual guidance, control the movement of objects, but cannot be used on magic items and creatures. ”

As soon as he checked the meditation guide, Leo noticed a figure appearing at the side door, presumably a passing servant.

"There aren't many people here, but it's not a good place to study magic, so let's go to the warehouse. ”

Having made up his mind, Leo reluctantly picked up a thirty-kilogram iron ingot and walked towards the side door.

With his current physical condition, he couldn't bear the weight of the iron ingot, and he hadn't walked far before he was already out of breath and his eyes were full of stars.

"It's good to have a trolley!" Leo had no choice but to move for a while, rest for a while, and it took more than ten minutes to reach his destination.

Hundreds of square meters of warehouses are filled with all kinds of materials, wood, stones, and metal ingots.

Finding the right position, Leo just put down the iron ingot in his hand, and sat on the ground with his ass on his ass, his arms and legs sore.

After resting for a few more minutes, finally feeling better, he stood up and looked around.

Since the Joseph family had not built any facilities recently, and there were only a few people in the huge warehouse at this time, Leo looked around, turned to the back of a shelf, and casually touched the surroundings.

"It's dusty, and it looks like it's been a long time since anyone visited it, so let's study it here. ”

Revisiting the meditation guide, it was very detailed, and after a while he understood the process of casting magic.

Through the guidance of spiritual power, the extracted magic power is drawn into special shapes, and engraved with magic figures and runes to achieve the effect of relative, this special structure is called "magic power components". ”

After that, the "magic components" of various functions are combined and arranged to form a complete "spell model", and finally the spell is used to resonate with the rules of the world, and the magic is cast out by projection.

For example, the Mage's Hand is only composed of two basic two-dimensional "magic components", which is relatively simple in level 0 magic. One of them is a square with a not-so-complicated but unknown magic rune inside, and the other is a triangle with magic runes inside.

"This square magic component seems to be able to generate a gravitational field to lift moving objects. And this triangular magic component is to connect my spiritual force with the gravitational field to achieve the effect of controlling it at will. But is it the shape or the rune that works, or is it a combination of the two?"

Leo muttered to himself, with the knowledge he had now, he couldn't understand how the magic component actually functioned.

"This world is really magical, as long as the magic is drawn into a special structure, it can be directly transformed into a force field, or even matter. This is completely different from the rules of the earth. But also, there is no such thing as magic on Earth. ”

Leo didn't have much time to study it here, there were still a lot of iron ingots waiting for him at the side door of the castle, and besides, he didn't know if he would be able to complete the magic smoothly.

Following the instructions in the guide, sending spiritual power into the soul and turning along the circle that had just been inscribed, Leo suddenly felt that something was being pulled into the soul.

"This is magic?"

After feeling it for a moment, he realized that this energy was very active, and quickly gathered it in the ring to try to draw the first "magic building".

The precision of the magic components is so high that even the slightest deviation will not be effective. However, Leo had already copied the drawings in his head, and he had a good mental control and geometric knowledge, so there should be no problem.

Unexpectedly, just now I started to try to draw, and the professor's voice suddenly came into my mind.

"Warning, the spirit value has been abnormally reduced!"

"It takes mental energy to manipulate the Mana Draw Components, so forget about that. Leo was startled, and the half-drawn mana component disintegrated, but he didn't feel much discomfort in himself, so he said to the professor, "Cancel the warning, and block all warnings of this type in the future." ”

He didn't want to be interrupted all the time while casting spells.

"The warning has been masked, if you need to turn it back on, please use the action passcode. The professor responded.

I started over, but I tried several times in a row and failed.

There were times when the accuracy was not enough and the mana component could not be formed, and there were times when the drawing was too slow and the mana component disintegrated on its own.

"It looks like it's easy, but I didn't expect it to be a little difficult, but I'm too unskilled. Leo didn't worry too much, after all, he had always been a calm person, and he was mentally prepared to try many times. Taking a deep breath and calming his mind, he tried again.

Time passed slowly, until the spirit was a little weak, and finally the first magic building was completed.

Knowing that it was impossible to keep the magic component for too long, Leo didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly drew another magic component.

This time, because of the experience, it quickly succeeded. When the triangular mana building is completed and nested into the square in the correct way, the two mana components suddenly become one, becoming a complete spell model that spins in the soul.

"Looks like it's working!"

This time, it took nearly 30 seconds to draw the model. If you fight the enemy, I'm afraid you will be chopped into mashed meat long ago. However, spell models, like the Magic Vortex, can be engraved in the soul. Once you have a solidified spell model, it's much easier and faster to cast magic in the future. All you need to do is inject the extracted mana into the spell model and cast it.

Now that time was pressing, Leo didn't have time to solidify the spell model, so he quickly selected a piece of wood beside him and whispered out the awkward incantation annotated by the universal phonetic symbol.

Nothing happened.

"What's wrong?" Leo finally became a little agitated this time.

The mental power is obviously about to be exhausted, and if it still can't be successful, you can only wait for the recovery to try again, in that case, I'm afraid it will be delayed for a long time.

He hurriedly analyzed: "The spell model has been successful, and it is definitely not a problem in this regard. ”

"Incantation...... It's supposed to be some kind of magical language, but I can't understand it at all. Is it the wrong pronunciation?"

Worried that the spell model would fail, Leo quickly bites the words and slowly recites the incantation.

When the spell model had begun to dim after the fifth failure, Leo slapped his head, "What a fool, I have a Ruhr accent, but this spell must require the most standard universal syllables." ”

Realizing the problem, Leo recalls the standard note and utters the awkward and unclear incantation for the sixth time.

Sure enough, as the sound of the incantation came out, the spell model immediately trembled and resonated.

When the last syllable is spit out, the spell model has been pulled by the rules of the world, projecting from Leo's soul plane into the material world, leaving only an illusory image.

The wood on the ground was immediately lifted by an invisible force and floated into the air.

Leo felt like a thread was connected between his soul and the wood, and his mind moved slightly, and the wood was already flying towards him.

"Finally succeeded, the power of magic is really not something that mortals can compete! As long as you throw this wood at people, I'm afraid no one can resist it." ”

Leo was determined that he had learned the hand of a mage, and he wanted to complete the carrying work, so he had the time to figure out the fading phantom in his soul.

As introduced in the guide, Leo already knows that this is the so-called "model scar", which is also the culprit that causes the magic cooldown. With the mentality of giving it a try, he drew the magic component again.

Sure enough, whenever the mana component is about to be completed, it will be disturbed by the illusion and dissipate into nothingness.

After waiting for a while, the phantom disappeared completely, and Leo tried again, this time the magic component finally took shape without any suspense.

He didn't want to waste his mental energy to complete the model, so he simply didn't care about the magic component in his soul. After a few minutes, the mana component vanished, but no shadow remained.

Leorio pondered for a moment and said to himself, "It seems that the spell model must be completed and resonantly projected onto the material plane before it can leave the model residue in the soul." And all the magic components in this model must wait until the phantom disappears before they can be reused, even the solidified ones, which is really quite annoying. In this case, not only this spell, but also spells of the same set with the same mana building blocks cannot be cast. ”

This problem has been bothering mages since the beginning of the magic enlightenment, and after tens of thousands of years, it still cannot be solved. Of course, if the soul is strong enough, the spell cooldown will still be shortened accordingly, but it is impossible to completely eliminate it.

After estimating the time, Leo was relieved. After all, the cooling time is not long, only about two minutes, and in the future, if you learn all the magic of each department, there should be no adverse effects, otherwise the mages will have to be eliminated by history a long time ago.

Feeling that his mental power was a little lacking, he asked, "Professor, check my mental value." ”

"The spirit is 0.31, the spirit peak is 0.85, and the current spirit value is at a low risk level. ”

Leo smiled, at this time, sleep was definitely impossible, but he had a better way to rejuvenate his spirit, and that was to meditate shallowly.

Two hours later, when Leo woke up from the shallow meditation, his mental value had returned to 0.81, and his whole body was refreshed.

Seeing that it was already afternoon, he knew that he could not delay any longer, so he left the warehouse and headed for the side door of the castle.
