Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 986 968. Guess

Lann fought against the mages many times, but they were basically concentrated at the Battle of Sodden Mountain.

The attacks from the southern mages rained down like raindrops.

Those mages basically seemed crazy in order to evacuate to a safe area alive without being liquidated by the country.

 Completely disregarding the dangerous nature of chaos magic, he released spells in an overloaded manner.

Of course, the mages in the north are similar.

 In that battle, the obstruction caused by the southern mages to Lan En was probably greater than the choking smoke on the battlefield.

On the one hand, there are the mages transferred by Nilfgaard. Most of them are at very low levels, even those who have not graduated from the magic academy. They mainly focus on one thing.

This was the decision made by the then Nilfgaardian commander Menno Culhorn after being tricked tactically by Lane.

  It is a decision that is deliberately guided.

On the other hand, although there are only about twenty mages in the northern countries, all of them are great mages.

Even fragments of the armor can fly out, causing secondary fragmentation damage to the surrounding area.

In this world, the common reasons why mages are defeated are mostly 'unprepared', 'being sneak attacked', 'surprised', 'being restrained', and 'unable to react'. The rare reasons are 'insufficient destructive power' .

 The spell disappears.

Most of the spell structures of Nilfgaardian mages are not advanced, so it is extremely easy for Lan En to destroy them.

 It was blown into fragments like a grenade, knocking over everyone in the corridor.

The fine armor worn by knights is very expensive. If ordinary people slash it casually with a sword, it will basically leave white marks and small dents, and the armor cannot be cut through at all.

 In the explosion, the butler himself and a knight in heavy armor were blown to pieces on the spot.

But the Archmage is the Archmage, and the spell casters of the northern countries suppressed the other party's spell casters very well.

Users who are also dangerous chaos magic are visible to the naked eye.

 This is the most common fireball spell used by mages.

Although the gap between the title of Archmage may be wider than that of Archmage and Apprentice.

Lan En raised his eyebrows and whistled cheerfully.

 “If Vesemir sees this, tsk tsk.”

 So when Lan En faced those spells flying around on the battlefield, he basically scanned them with [spiritual vision], and then Arondette, filled with the divine power of the Lady of the Lake, followed his line of sight.

How about saying 'noble mage' or 'lowly demon hunter'?

 And now.

  “咻~”

 At normal level, a mage's fireball spell hitting a soldier wearing standard armor should be enough to blow up the armored human body.

Lan can easily 'cut' a fireball, but if he were to be hit head-on without reacting, he would probably have to suffer serious injuries.

 But this is no reason to underestimate the fireball spell of warlocks.

The demon hunters of the Wolf School would never dare to imagine that they could have this level of spell power. The maximum output of their [Igni Sign] is at the level of a Mars spray gun.

In the manor of Duke Stysa of Temeria, a former big man, the mage butler was holding a fireball ready to go out in the corridor, and then he was disturbed by Lan and the fireball went out of control.

It takes more than two seconds to spray the monster's fur to scorch. Even if it doesn't burn through, there's nothing wrong with the muscles under the monster's fur.

  The effect of the spell fireball is completely beyond the specifications for a witcher who can only use some magic tricks.

 “It seems that I am also a spell caster.”

Lan smiled easily, and on the retina, Mentos's data collection for this spellcasting had also been completed.

“During this casting process, the subject’s physiological fluctuations are as follows: The heat fluctuation data of the spell fire is being exported.”

 Biochemical Intelligence Brain spoke in his usual British butler accent that sounded quite stylish.

Of course, if the biological brain wants to choke people, this tone will also make Lan En particularly angry.

 No problem, it’s your choice.

Lan En glanced at it and immediately noticed the difference between spell casting and seal casting.

"The chaotic magic power in my body has not been consumed, but the brain wave intensity has weakened slightly. Does the spell consume the spirit?"

Mentos quickly blew a rainbow fart upwards.

“Accurate understanding, sir. The release of the spell fire seems to be similar to your reaction when you used the [Block] combat skill. They consume the same energy—the spirit of the releaser.”

 “In the world of fire, this should be called [soul power].”

 Lan En nodded, this is not a big deal.

The demon hunter's chaotic magic power relies on the body. With his physical quality, it is no big deal to cast nearly ten seals in a row now, and he recovers quickly.

 It is not easy to recover mentally, and can only be restored through activities such as meditation, sleeping, and resting.

But after Lan En installed the [Song Gland] on himself, his mental recovery speed was also very fast.

  If during the subsequent Space Marine enhancement surgery, a [nerve knot] will be implanted in the occipital foramen of the back of the head.

Then this enhanced organ will be able to adjust the original rules of brain rest of the Space Marines, so that the human brain can sleep and rest alternately between the left and right hemispheres like a dolphin. At that time, his mental recovery speed will directly increase exponentially.

Next, the biological intelligence brain pointed out to the subject the points that could be improved during the spell casting process, as well as various minor mistakes, just like Lan En did when he practiced the spell.

This ability to summarize, summarize, and correct mistakes is the source of the super learning ability of the citizens of the Interstellar Era.

 Fireball, as the most basic spell, does not involve many knowledge points, and Lan En is also mastering the knowledge in the Great Swamp spell book at a very rapid rate.

 Among Onuma's basic spells, if you look back you will find that the spells not only include the burning and control of flames, but also some other techniques.

 For example, [spray poisonous mist], [violent sweating], [violent oily sweat].

These spells do not superficially involve fire.

 But in reality, Lan En had a keen insight into the things beneath the surface of these spells.

On the palm of Lan En's left hand, the erratic flame first rose up, and the heat caused the air to make an explosion.

The operation of the spell has its own process, but Lan En has already turned on [Spirit Vision], observing the transformation of the spell flame under the spell throughout the process.

 When the flames swelled to the size of a palm, Lan En slapped his left hand to his chest without hesitation.

  This is a completely different feeling from casting [Fireball].

 The power in his body gathers in his left hand and becomes the fire of the spell. After the magic fire was transformed into a spell, it was shot into his chest and began to work.

 The conversion of heat became clear to Lan En's perception as never before.

 After the flames of the spell entered the body, Lan En's body surface suddenly burst out with a burst of white mist.

This white mist covers the whole body, with a thickness of about ten centimeters, conforming to the contours of the human body.

“[Spell·Intense sweating].”

 Lan En muttered while clenching his fists, jumping around, and doing various adaptive activities.

 【Intense Sweating】is a spell that incorporates fire into the body and uses the water mist caused by sweating to greatly resist high-heat damage.

But Lan En could see clearly that it would be damning if this layer of water mist less than ten centimeters thick on the body could really significantly reduce the damage caused by high heat.

“Unless ‘water mist’ is not simply ‘water mist’.”

 Lan En’s head and face were also wrapped in white mist, and miraculously it did not affect his vision.

 【Spiritual Vision】This layer of white fog can be observed directly.

“The large amount of sweat is indeed the mediator, but the thing that reduces the damage of high heat is still hidden deeper.”

Within a few breaths, the white mist on Lan En's body gradually faded until it disappeared.

This is also the first time he has cast this spell.

 The [fireball] that releases the flames, and the [violent sweating] that absorbs the flames into the body.

 The two basic spells of the spell are successful only the first time they are cast.

Even if nothing else, this ability to learn spells was even if Cornicus searched the history of Master and Disciple inheritance in Onwuma, he would probably not be able to find a few.

 But Lan En didn't stop there, releasing the spell just made him a little happy, similar to getting a new toy.

 But analyzing and observing the core and underlying logic of the spell made him very interested.

“The key to [violent sweating] is not to sweat, but to incorporate the flame into the body. Through the flame, a little bit of sweat changes its properties and has the power to withstand high temperatures.”

The spell effect only lasted for a few seconds due to Lan En's mistakes and unskilled casting. However, when the white mist disappeared from the body surface, the witcher's deep eyes did not return to their normal appearance.

Similarly, the calculation process of Mentos on the retina is also brushing down like a waterfall.

 “I remember that Cornicus gave me a solemn warning.”

 Suddenly, the Witcher looked down at the flames on the palm of his left hand and murmured softly.

“He said: Izalis, the origin of spells in the past, was destroyed by the fire he produced.”

“He also said: The fire distorted life.”

 The new logic-based speculation was submitted to Mentos by Lan En's mind, and was deduced based on the data it collected during the previous spell casting process and its own computing power.

 The speculation is: Does the so-called flame of magic have a deeper meaning that is not ‘burning’ or ‘high temperature’ in the conventional sense, but ‘interference with life’?

 In the world of fire, all intelligence and life are born from the burning of the initial flame.

 The ancient trees and ancient dragons that appeared before this were actually inorganic things, so they were immortal.

 In this case, does the flame itself have the meaning of ‘life’ in addition to its original nature?

 When Lan En submitted this speculation to Mentos for data verification.

 He suddenly felt that the computing power of the biochemical intelligence brain was being greatly occupied in an instant.

Mentos slowed down.

But at the same time, the corners of Lan En's mouth were slightly raised.

Mentos also sent congratulations.

 "The parsing task has been constructed, sir. I think you are on the right track."
