Mage Joan

Chapter 28: Hand of the High Mage

Joan fell asleep until dawn and woke up feeling refreshed and energetic. As he thought last night, enough sleep helps the brain to rejuvenate, sitting in bed to recall the strange things of last night, he soon thought of a reasonable explanation.

In order to verify his guess, Joan performed "endoscopist" to enter a state of meditation. The hazy light and shadow gathered into a row of data. Among them, the physical attribute data was no different from the previous one, but the occupation level had changed significantly.

After a night, Joan was no longer a master apprentice, and was quietly promoted to an official level 1 master. At the same time as the cast level increased, Joan also gained the authority to use 1 ring of arcane. The combination of the wizard's level and intelligence attributes provides him with a total of two 1st-level spell slots-as long as he has sufficient rest, he can obtain two 1st-level spell slots every day through the link magic net. As for which spells are filled for these spell slots, it depends on which one-level arcane spells you master.

After the initial excitement, Joan gradually realized that he couldn't increase his level without comprehension before comprehending the 1st-level spell. Conversely, since you have become a 1st-level wizard, it should logically have at least mastered a 1st-level spell, which is consistent with causal logic.

Joan hasn't learned any 1st-level spells systematically. What is the problem? Recalling the strange experience of practicing the hands of the Master last night, Joan gradually discovered the key to the problem.

I don’t know whether it’s **** luck or benefit from the high-intensity training during this period. Joan has a new understanding of the “Mage’s Hand”. The magic power invoked by this spell has greatly exceeded the scope of the 0 ring trick. I don’t know. Unconsciously upgraded to "hands of higher masters".

"Higher Master's Hand" requires 1 ring of spell slots to activate. Joan has slept for eight hours, and then sat on the bed for an hour to prepare the spell. Both 1st-level spell slots are stored in the "higher mage hand"-in fact, he does not have other 1st-level spells. To choose from.

From "Mage's Hand" to "Higher Mage's Hand", it belongs to the standard "quantitative change causes qualitative change", which belongs to a very important subject in the magic theory system of the Valais world, and scholars have carried out research on this subject So many bookshelves that can fill a wall. Joanne also dabbled in this subject. From the perspective of the three elements of a spell, the basic functions of a spell are usually not significantly changed after it is upgraded to the advanced version. For example, the role of "Mage's Hand" is to remotely control objects, and it is still the function after being upgraded to "Higher Mage's Hand", so the "seed" and "starting character" of the spell are no different from the lower-level version. In the same way, the "casting materials" before and after the upgrade of the spell will usually not change. The only significant change in the three elements is the "rule" element of the spell.

Taking the "Mage's Hand" as an example, the upper limit of the spell's weight is about 5 pounds, and the basic range is 25 feet. With the increase of the caster level, the upper limit of the range will increase year-on-year, but the increase is not large.

When the "Mage's Hand" was promoted to the "Higher Mage's Hand", the two most important elements of the rules above were significantly changed. After Joan personally tested it, he found that the maximum load of the "High Master's Hand" is about 40 pounds, which is equivalent to eight times the "Master's Hand", and the basic range is 100 feet, which is equivalent to four times before the upgrade. In addition to this, each time Joan raises a mage level, the upper limit of the "Mage's Hand" will increase by 10 feet. In contrast, the caster's upper limit for each level of the "Mage's Hand" increases by only 2.5 The growth rate is only about one-fourth of the "hand of the higher master".

After a comprehensive comparison of the "Mage's Hand" and the "Higher Mage's Hand", Joanne found that the latter actually increased the weight limit and range on the basis of the former, and everything else was the same. Even the duration of the spell is exactly the same-as long as the caster can stay focused, the "Hand of the High Mage" can always play a role.

There are usually two ideas for improving a spell. One is to find the unreasonable design of the existing spell and make small adjustments to make it try to maximize the energy level allowed by the current spell position. This improvement method It is called "optimization". Thousands of spells have been handed down in the world of Vales, and some of them are very well optimized. For example, the most well-known "fireball" spell structure is almost perfect. The maximum power of a 3-ring spell can not be displayed. Too much.

However, there are some spells that are just the opposite. For example, the well-known "Ice Cone", the original spell configuration has not been carefully optimized. As a 5th-level spell, it is not even as practical as 3rd-level fireball in most cases. , Can be said to be the opposite of magic optimization.

The basic principle of optimizing a spell is to keep the number of spell rings unchanged. For example, the upper limit of the energy level of the 3rd ring spell level is 10 degrees (group), and the best "Fireball" optimization work can exert the maximum potential of the 3rd ring spell position, but it cannot exceed the upper limit of the energy level, otherwise the 3rd ring spell position Because of the inability to carry this overpowering spell, I have to use the 4th ring and even higher spell slots to accommodate it. This is no longer "optimization", but the second way to improve the spell-upgrade.

The magic power called by the "High Master's Hand" has already greatly exceeded the upper limit of the energy level of the 0 ring trick. Therefore, from "Master's Hand" to "Higher Master's Hand" is a standard "upgraded" evolution, which must inevitably occupy more Higher-level spell slots.

Joan can only get two 1st-level spell slots per day, that is, the hands of a high-level wizard at most two times. For Joan, who desperately needs to study and practice this new spell repeatedly, each spell slot is very valuable. Fortunately, as long as you maintain a high degree of concentration, the hand of the High Master can continue to exist. In order to avoid waste, Joan greeted Condy in advance, and also instructed Jamie to keep the door and lock himself in the room for the whole day. Practice the hands of the higher master.

From early morning until late at night, for a full 14 hours, Joan was in a state of spellcast concentration every minute and every second. In the first few hours, his spirit was completely focused on spells, and he was completely distracted. As he became more familiar with the hands of higher mages, he realized that he did not need to be overly nervous, and then he tried to drink and eat while maintaining concentration Dried food, although there were several times during the period when the distraction caused the spell to dissolve, fortunately, it was timely and alert, and finally there was a panic rescue.

After insisting for eight hours, Qiao An could not bear it anymore, and his mental exhaustion was reflected in the way of drowsiness and headache, sitting there and dozing off, dizziness and nausea. Of course Joan knew that a long time of concentration would put a heavy burden on his nerves, but he was not willing to give up now. The talent of the mage mainly depends on the level of intelligence. Since his intelligence is not outstanding, he can only make up for the gap with genius by redoubled efforts and perseverance.

Joan took out the "tears of gods", soaked a cup of potion and poured it down, relieved mental fatigue with the help of medicine, and clenched his teeth for six hours before ending his concentration, like a cut stump that fell down on the bed.

Half an awake and half awake, Joan remembered that there is still one ring of spells that is useless today, which is really a waste...it just went to sleep with a trace of regret.
