Chapter 3 Understanding

"Only when you truly possess magic, understand magic and use it, you know its power." "The growth of spirit, as well as infinite growth, cannot make the structure of spells simpler. Clear, purity, and purity are your destination."

In the town where Shaoko and Xue Ye are located, a large army is stationed here according to the regulations of the empire, which is divided into three small teams, one with one hundred people. There are also three mages, six pharmacists and two blacksmiths to help the army conduct the border mission.

Shaoke's main task here is to take turns to patrol a team. Every time this team will have a mage and two pharmacists. The blacksmith mainly stays in the town to repair some weapons. The main task of patrol is to move northward and cross the barbarian tribe a hundred miles away to explore the terrain of the forest, the approximate distribution of monsters, the distribution of minerals, etc. However, to the present, they are just mainly observing the distribution of monsters and trying to hunt monsters to minimize the beast disasters caused by excessive numbers of monsters. However, the current team rarely travels so far. Laziness is a phenomenon that people in that place have.

Such a patrol would take more than a month or even two months for this team. When they came back, they would start from another team and go on mission again. There are thousands of such towns on the border of this foggy forest. In addition to the hunting of the soldiers, they still maintain a certain degree of stability. There has been no large-scale attack on humans in the foggy forest for almost tens of thousands of years.

Every patrol is always so reluctant for the Snow Night Mage, because such actions always occupy most of his time in magic learning. However, every time he returns, there will always be a lot of spoils to be distributed, including a large number of magic cores, precious medicinal materials, a small amount of crystals, precious magic materials, good fur, and a small amount of ore... When distributing spoils, mages generally choose the spoils first. The best magic cores and the best magic materials will be selected by the mages, and then the medicinal materials will be distributed to the two pharmacists, and the rest will be distributed to these soldiers. Of course, no one can move the ore of the blacksmith, and even if the mages need it, they must use money to buy it.

The final result of such distribution is that the warriors do not have too good things. In order not to worsen their emotions, the mages and pharmacists always take out some coins from their own wallets and invite them to the tavern to drink the last ale.

Of course, there is nothing to do if these ordinary warriors are not compensated. After all, they need the care of mages and pharmacists. After all, no one wants to be delayed by pharmacists after being injured in the future. Moreover, in their opinion, it is a privilege to give them some money, but these rules are passed down from generation to generation, and Shaoke does not want to break these rules.

Years of magic learning have made the originally relatively silent mages reach the level of being more silent. Unless they are talking about magical issues, Shaoke never takes the initiative to talk to his companions, and he became even more silent after arriving in this town. He used his first month's salary to buy an ordinary cloak like those merchants, covering his body all day long. Even when he asked the other two mages for magical knowledge, he just took off his hood.

The residents of the town always call him "Shadow Mage" behind their backs, but his two mage companions always call him "Snow Night Mage" by the regular etiquette between mages, not only because mages are a formal profession, but also noble. They always look down on those who do not know etiquette. Fortunately, Shaoko has not become too old-fashioned.

Shaoko never stopped patrol missions. He did not stay in his huts in his residence and laboratory for a long time, doing various experiments and research. He only conducted some research on spells, materials, and magic structures after the patrol was completed, but he spent more time on meditation, spell practice, and book reading.

Because Shaoke always feels that this world is so unsafe, with groups of monsters, millions of fighting between countries and races...one is more cruel than the other. He doesn't want to be solved by the way if a war breaks out or encounters a powerful monster in the future. After all, he has not yet enjoyed his life here when traveling to this world!

Two years of career in border resident made Shaoke successfully upgrade from a trainee mage to a junior mage level when he was about twenty years old, and successfully cast the first-level spell "Fireball" symbol magic, but this cannot be said that our mage and most mages are just as ordinary as the qualifications. After all, Shaoke came here from a world full of various fantasy novels. After reading so many novels, studying in the academy and some of his own views in this world, he truly understood the meaning of some basic requirements for the caster than other mages, and only when he truly possessed magic, understood magic and used it, he realized its strength." "The growth of spirit and infinite growth cannot make the structure of the spell more simple. Clear, purity and purity are your destination."

Most mages will only truly understand this situation when they reach the level of advanced magicians. When casting spells at higher levels, if their mental power is pure and sufficient, they can cast this spell more easily. When casting this spell with impure mental power, they will consume a large part of their mental power. If their magic power is not pure, they will consume more magic power.

Since mages and mages all know that every little extra mental power is used during battle, magic power will add a layer of guarantee for their victory. Therefore, most mages begin to condense after reaching the level of advanced magicians, purify the previously increased mental power and magic power. However, at this time, it is very difficult to condense their mental power well. It not only takes the mages not much time, but also consumes the mage's mind. Since the mind is consumed by meditation, it requires real sleep time to restore the mind. Therefore, these mages often cannot be their own mental power for decades. How pure the magic power is, until in the end, only a small number of people become spell casters at the level of the great magician.

Although the mage mentors are tireless, they warn the young casters again and again that they must constantly purify their mental power and magic power at the beginning of their magic, so that they have the opportunity to become the level of a great magician in the future, so as not to have a way to start when they reach the level of a high-level magician.

However, when young mages cast their spells, they cannot discover or have not yet revealed the additional consumption caused by impure mental power and magic. Therefore, they involuntarily ignore the teachings of the mentors and just blindly increase their mental power or magic power in order to become high-level spell casters as soon as possible.

A powerful spell caster requires not only powerful, pure mental power and magic, but also proficient in various languages, because different languages ​​have different effects when casting different spells. Some can increase secondary power, while others will reduce power. Some languages ​​cannot increase power, nor will they reduce power, and the effect is average. Of course, the magnitude of this power is judged according to the power after casting in the general current magic language.

For example: When using the Abyss Word to cast cursive spells, the power is one fifth, but after using the Elf Word to cast cursive spells, the effect is only about three-fifths of the original effect.

This result leads that when mages cast spells, they generally give priority to those languages ​​that can increase the effect of the spells to be cast, and then choose those languages ​​that do not reduce the power of the original spell in order to confuse their enemies and make them not know what magic they want to release and cannot achieve effective defense.

As a qualified mage, you can not only read, speak, and chant multiple languages, but also need to understand the handprints of various spell castings in order to speed up the formation of magic and its structure.

Similarly, the understanding of various materials, geographical environment, and history is also a compulsory practice for mages. It can be said that mages learn more widely than any profession. After all, a linguist will not recite and remember those spells he said.

Although our mage, Shaoke has tried his best to learn, there is still a big gap compared to his two companions. He still needs to continue to learn and research to become a real spellcaster as soon as possible: a magician-level mage. Of course, this requires Shaoke to continue to work hard. As for whether he can become a magician in the future, even if he is a junior magician, it is not something Shaoke can consider now. This is too far and unrealistic for Shaoke. On this chaotic continent, no matter how noble the mage is, it cannot be said that he will be killed by a monster or his kind.
