The Truth of Magic

Chapter 12 Spell Slots

The novice mages of the Mage Association branch only learn how to release spells, which is like taking the application of the law of commutation and law of combination in elementary school.

But his kind of learning theory from scratch is equivalent to Peano's axioms, allowing him to derive the entire arithmetic axiom system.

It's not that it's useless, but it's not necessary for the time being.

Zhao Xu had ambitions, but no matter how good he was at laying the groundwork, he couldn't spend several to ten years to become a level 1 mage like Arthur's native mage.

Players basically took the quick route and directly learned how to cast and apply spells, just like learning a bunch of derivative formulas without learning calculus in high school.

Know it but don't know why, just make up the number, otherwise the first mage among the players should graduate in a year, not in a week.

The quick mage is the privilege that Arthur gave them to these earth players.

Anyway, after a year, when the players arrive in Arthur's world, they will increase the intelligence value of their character cards, and at the same time instill the corresponding spell knowledge.

Blowing water can also withstand the test of native mages of the same level.

That's what happened.

So Zhao Xu knew that he could cheat in a year, so he naturally didn't want to gnaw at this hard bone now.

It took a year and a half for the mage players in the previous life to fully digest the knowledge given by the system. Before that, few mages could continue to upgrade smoothly.

The teaching method of Arcane Gate is different from that of ordinary branches. Antinoya said, If we really want to mass-produce middle and low-level mages, we have our own means, or the local branches are doing this kind of work.

So from the beginning, our training goal was based on legendary mages. Naturally, there is no need to make you become a level 1 mage in a hurry.

Hearing what Antinoya said, Zhao Xu was a little confused.

He was holding the admission notice for the undergraduate degree, and he didn't know it was an eight-year direct Ph. D. until he reported to the school?

Even the undergraduate degree he is studying now actually has this feeling. For those who really want to work, technical vocational schools are enough. Like their undergraduate courses, they are more of a knowledge system prepared in advance for a graduate degree.

Most people are just base numbers.

Zhao Xu understood and agreed with this approach. They all went to the highest school in the mage school, and they didn't have any small goals. They really lived on dogs.

The problem is, he just wants to fuck now.

He has the patience to spend a longer time training, it doesn't matter how many times longer than other players. only

That is based on the fact that he can learn more spells and have access to more hidden and powerful specialties, paving the way for future advanced careers.

He can trade time for a powerful future.

Instead, his mage knowledge system is stronger and more reliable than other players.

Because the cake of the legendary mage was really too far away for him, he couldn't swallow it for a year.

The knowledge system is solid, he can draw the spell model, can deduce how to predict the structural transformation of the spell, and knows the release threshold of the evocation spell, all of which can not bring the power of his fireball a little bit.

What can increase the power of spells is either the level of the caster or special abilities.

If Zhao Xu took the route of studying spells to improve his level, he must be sharpening his knife and chopping firewood by mistake.

It's a pity that he didn't have to go, unless the earth traveled to Arthur after 20 years.

Just these, Zhao Xu couldn't refute Antinoya.

After realizing this, Zhao Xu could only frown and study the book hard.

No wonder I haven't heard much about player mages from Mystra in my previous life. It seems that before the time travel, they were all trapped in Mystra to go to school.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Xu could only look blank, as if he was back in his third year of high school, he suddenly felt that the cashmere cushion on the armchair was much harder, and it hurt his buttocks.

If the book The Path of the Arcane is a simple history of magic, then he will definitely not have any pressure to read it. Zhao Xu can read from the history of physics to the history of mathematics, down to the chronicles of certain games and animations People with relish.

Unfortunately, although this book started from the ancient Outer Gods period, it only focused on the evolution of spells and kept referring to various mysterious concepts.

After the player completes the vocational training, he will determine his skill system and decide whether to cast points.

However, even if it is the investment point, it is necessary to meet the preliminary requirements before the investment point can be improved.

It's like, upgrading is not a matter of course, you have to collect enough experience before you can go through the level and decide whether you can upgrade.

Among them, the skill system has a knowledge category, which is divided into many categories, and you must invest in each to upgrade.

If Zhao Xu's knowledge (mystery) has an adjustment value of more than 30, he can still perform a knowledge check to see if he can automatically retrieve some nouns.

Now he can only use Antinoya who is opposite him as a human-shaped dictionary to constantly search and read, although the efficiency is extremely low.

But Zhao Xu didn't know at this time that he was able to open this book without being confused, and he had already received some kind of blessing.

As the reading progressed, Zhao Xu was able to read roughly without asking for a deep understanding, but he became more and more confused until he read——

When the magic position was clear to the Goddess of Magic, he suddenly felt emotional.

Arthur's spell system, everyone, no matter what occupation, uses spell slots instead of traditional magic points.

How many spells each person can cast every day is determined by their own professional level, and at the same time, the extra spell slots brought by the attribute value are superimposed.

At the same time, each mage must rest for 8 hours, and then meditate for an hour to determine the spell before he can call these spell slots.

That's right, both the mage and the priest had to spend an hour deciding what spell he was going to cast that day, and it was impossible to decide what spell the third-level spell slot was going to be used for when it came to the end.

At the same time, the spell slots that are used up will be gone, and they will not be recovered after just sitting, but they will still have to rest for 8 hours before they can continue to prepare these spell slots the next day.

When mages learn spells, they have to copy them into their own spell books, and only in this way can they be used to prepare spells.

At the same time, as the spell level increases, the number of pages transcribed also increases.

So unless mages use the Goddess Blessing Book to transcribe spells, they have to carry thick spell books with them.

If a mage loses his spellbook, it's the same as a chef without kitchen utensils, no matter how many dishes you have, you can't make any tricks.

Basically, many mages have been dragged into the poverty line by copying spells. Unlike priests, divine spells are given by God, let him prepare for it, there is not so much trouble.

Such harsh conditions are still hard to stop mages against the sky. It is precisely the spell tables, specialties, advancements, and items of mages that have exploded.

However, Zhao Xu was more concerned about what he wanted to choose. According to Arthur's tradition, novices would be given an ordinary free spell book, and apprentices could copy all zero-level spells to it for free. .

Basically, a zero-level spell takes up half a page of spellbook space, while a first-level spell takes up one page.

You can also pick up three free transcripts from your local Mages Guild inventory.

In the era when everyone was poor, these three initial spells actually determined the initial combat power of novice mages.

Zhao Xu read the book, but couldn't help but fantasize about which first-level spells he should choose.

In fact, there are many things that are not absolute, and the spellcaster's specialty of the happy heart can not use the spell book, but it is more troublesome to mention every special case, because there are some contents that the protagonist has not touched in the previous life.
