Chapter 38: Mental Agility and Cooldown
"Rowan, you have a lot of questions, but not as many as Lance. Lin Li said to Rowan.
"Okay, listen to your teachings. He said respectfully.
"For example, in your previous attack on Lance, when he lost the ice wall and frost armor, why didn't you squeeze your own mana in the first place? ”
Lin Li carefully corrected the mistakes made by Rowan.
Mage battles are always delicate and thrilling, and in an instant, the balance of superiority and disadvantage will be heavily overturned.
For example, the comments on the previous battle between the two were by no means due to Lin Li's being too strict, but that in order to win, every mage was required to constantly keep in mind the transformation of spells, the concentration of elements, the use of magic such as mental agility and mental confusion.
The slightest mistake is a thousand miles, this sentence is particularly appropriate in the battle between mages.
"Come and sit down, it seems that there are still some places that you desperately need to master. Lin Li took out a bit of the majesty of a powerful mage
Lin Li did not continue to teach the concept of mages and the cultivation of magic in the following classes, but focused on the knowledge of combat, trying to tell Lance and Rowan the most practical combat techniques.
The active cycle of the elements, the cooldown time of magical skills, and the ubiquitous training of magical elemental concentration made Lance and Rowan feel that they were in a vortex of knowledge, and even if they tried their best, they could not break free from the eye of the whirlwind.
In the days that followed, every battle was nothing but painful torture and mental damage to them.
Lin Li had never been a teacher, and he rarely gave instructions in a low voice in a gentle tone, usually letting the two of them grope in the middle of the battle, while he helped correct his mistakes on the side.
In this way, two days passed, and the three of them spent almost all of their time in the magic laboratory except for the necessary rest and the management of the soul refining moon, and fought each other fiercely.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open by a round creature. "William, what are you doing? Lord Ben really didn't expect that life with you would be so boring. ”
With a hint of complaint, Lanna pushed open the door to the magic lab and walked in.
Lance and Rowan saw Lanna's round figure, as if they had seen a savior, and looked at Lanna eagerly, hoping that Lanna would save them a little bit from such a hellish life.
"What's wrong with you two?" Lanna was confused.
She knew Lance and Rowan, and when Lanna arrived, Lance and Rowan heard that she was Lord William's blood pact magic pet, and they went to meet Lanna and gave Lanna a lot of food that Lanna liked.
It's just that, in her impression, these two people should never show such expressions to her, as if they were treating her as an angel.
With a puzzled look on her face, she turned to Lin Li.
"It's nothing, I'll take the two of them to practice the battle between mages. Lin Li waved his hand with an indifferent expression on his face and explained to Lanna.
"Huh?" Lanna's eyes lit up. "I'm the best at this event!" she smiled narrowly, facing Lance and Rowan with her round, hairy face.
The two people on the other side wailed in their hearts, "I'm too simple, woo woo, I'm too simple!"
As a result, the original Lin Li guided the two people, and became one-on-one VIP guidance, They were miserable and extremely regretful for the surprise they had just made.
"Lance, fill up the ice wall, pay attention to the time of the rapid cooldown, survive this round of attacks, and you should counterattack. ”
"Luo Wen, use your mind quickly, when you attack with all your strength, you at least release two less flame explosion techniques, Lord Ben will personally guide you, if you can lose, you can wait for me for a while, hum ......"
"......" Rowan was vague for a while.
Lanna is not like Lin Li, although Lin Li has always been an indifferent character, but he will never pursue some problems too much with his subordinates.
And Lanna, this magic weapon incarnation who has been bored in the shadows for many years is not a vegetarian, even if it is impossible to really cause any physical damage, but it is enough to give Rowan a headache, this is a little ancestor who can't be provoked!
The two of them sighed in their hearts, it's better now, it's not as good as before!
Before, when Lin Li was guiding one person, the other could relax a little, but now he is mentally tense throughout the whole process, and there is no possibility of rest at all.
......
To cut a long story short, after an extremely painful training and lectures, Lance and Rowan have made progress that they could never have imagined.
Lance broke through the archmage, and Rowan not only broke through the archmage, but also became the great alchemist.
Not only were the two of them very excited, but this progress was also of great significance to the entire Soul Refining Moon Spirit, and under Lin Li's men, there was finally a mage who could take charge of Brand alone.
At the same time, during this period of hellish actual combat torture, they had a very deep understanding of the magic elements and the rhythm of spell casting, and it can be said that just with the strength of their just stepping into the archmage, they can already defeat many third-level archmages.
The four of them came out of the magic laboratory, and Lance and Rowan were a little haggard and tired to varying degrees.
Lin Li waved his hand, gave them a holiday, let them go back to their rooms to rest, and then went to the hall of the soul refining moon spirit to watch the store.
In Lin Li's eyes, every inch of land in this alchemy shop, and every customer who walks into the shop, is an important source of gold coins on his body. Therefore, watching the customers come in and out, Lin Li's heart was simply happy, he was not very public, holding a drink, and sitting quietly in a secluded corner.
After a while, there was a lively discussion and a burst of exclamations outside.
Lin Li was a little confused, stood up and walked out.
A large number of passers-by gathered on both sides of the road, staring at the wide road, with envy and surprise on their faces.
"Wow, look, isn't that the convoy of our brand's most famous mercenary group, the Scarlet Knights?"
"It's a lot, you see, even the magic crystals with all kinds of demonic beasts,, this is at least an alchemy material that can only be used at the level of a great alchemist!"
"I only saw the news of the alliance between the Scarlet Knights and the Soul Refining Moon Spirit two days ago, and at the time I laughed at this reporter for not knowing how to do it, but now I look at it, it's actually our eyes......"
Countless voices were whispering, and many of them were envy and jealousy of the soul refining moon.
"Archmage William, here we are. Carlo jumped down from his horse, saluted Lin Li, and said respectfully.
"Good work. Lin Li greeted.
The eyes of the onlookers were about to fall: How could it be, Carlo was saluting the manager of this small broken alchemy shop just now?
Countless people are rubbing their eyes vigorously.
This is really shocking, Carlo, as the deputy head of the Scarlet Knights, is already a famous big man in Brand in the eyes of the onlookers, and at this time, this big man honestly salutes people?
Everyone, and even the Brand critics, think that the Scarlet Knights occupy an absolute leadership position in this unusual cooperation, maybe the Scarlet Knights collected the money for refining the soul moon and helped to advertise, but now it seems that this conjecture is completely wrong.
If it was just a nouveau riche who spent money to buy fame, Rowan would never come in person, let alone these precious goods.
Lin Li and Carlo walked into the Soul Refining Moon Soul side by side.
According to common sense, it was the first time for Carlo to come, so he made enough gestures as a guest, and he seriously evaluated and complimented the beauty of Lin Li's alchemy shop, expressing his appreciation for Lin Li's level of appreciation.
These are the most ordinary scenes, with these words, only once they met, Carol and Lin Li, who were still very strangers to each other, became speechless, sitting on the soft sofa in the living room, the two seemed to have been friends for many years, smiling politely.
"Master William, shall we check the quality of this batch of alchemy items?" he suggested.
"Okay. Lin Li nodded in agreement.
From Lin Li's point of view, this is indeed a batch of alchemy materials of quite good quality. Not only some alchemist-level herbs, but also a series of high-grade materials such as colorful pearls, Ellis gemstones, glazed corals, etc., these things are all materials that only great alchemists and even master potions can use.
These things are enough to take and put at auction, and sell them to an ordinary alchemy shop, which is obviously the special care of the Scarlet Knights.
Lin Li knew in his heart that if others were good to him, Lin Li would definitely repay it, otherwise the favor owed would make Lin Li feel very uncomfortable.
He bowed earnestly to Caro.
"Deputy Head Caro, thank you so much, and thank you to Head Karl, I hope you will say hello to him for me when you go back. ”
"Since you are so good to our soul refining moon, then we will never embarrass you. Lin Li said, "I know that your Crimson Knights are about to march into the Dark City, and it just so happens that I still have a few bottles of divine potions and purification potions here, so you can take them first." ”
Carlo's expression became agitated.
In this cooperation, not only him, Caro, but even the head of the carol regiment was under a lot of pressure, and he had to send so many precious materials that he had worked so hard to get to a small alchemy shop that was unknown, and many old people in the mercenary group felt that it was a bit absurd.
In the end, it was Carl's many years of prestige in the Crimson Knights that this cooperation was completed.
According to the agreement, such a number of high-grade potions would require many transactions before they could be obtained. Anyway, it's also a master's level, and it's a treasure that fetches sky-high prices at auction.
And now, just one transaction, to get these things that are of great significance to help enter the Undercity, the weather-hardened Carlo feels that his eyes are a little moist......
He wiped his face and stabilized his emotions. "Master William, this, this is too precious, how can our mercenary group be embarrassed to accept it?" said this, he clutched the bottle of the divine potion tightly in his hand, and his strength was so strong that he almost crushed the bottle.
Lin Li was secretly amused, he chuckled twice: "Deputy Head Carlo, you're welcome, it's just two bottles of potion, I still have a lot of stock, don't worry, the Scarlet Knights are willing to cooperate with us, we will definitely express it." ”
Carlo had an embarrassed smile on his face, everyone could see that the deputy head of the regiment was really reluctant to take the potion in his hand, if anyone wanted to grab it, it was estimated that his first reaction was to take off the giant sword on his back and fight hard.
"Then, then thank you Master William, don't worry, I will definitely teach those old antiques in the group a good lesson when I go back, even Master William dares to question it, and I am really impatient." He licked his face and patted his ass.
"Hehe, it's nothing, thank you Deputy Head Carlo. ”
At this time, the crowd of onlookers was still gathered outside the store, and they did not dare to go in and disturb the two, but they still hoped for further discoveries.
"Let it go, let it go!"
In the surging crowd that surrounded the Soul Refining Moon Spirit, a figure with withered skin and eyes full of wisdom was walking towards the gate of the Soul Refining Moon Soul step by step.
"Yes, this old mage looks familiar. ”
"Looking at this, you're not an ordinary mage, are you?"
People noticed that he was different and speculated about his identity.
Out of awe for the old man, the crowd dispersed, leaving a passage for him.
"Thank you. He replied politely.
