Use the XP System To Build the Devil City

"The refinement and finalization of magic power is very difficult for newcomers. But once you master it, you will become proficient with more practice. This part is easy to form a habit, just like our dark elves always stand still and chant spells. Be careful. You are a novice, and you must not fall into bad habits."

"The release of magic is the easiest step in magic. After mastering the same skills, you will become more proficient. It's like tearing open a bag of instant noodles. As long as you tear a lot, you can find the angle of attack at a glance."

"It's a good metaphor. But eating instant noodles all the time makes me feel miserable."

"These two points may be a bit difficult at first, but they will definitely not trouble Li Muran. The most troublesome part should be the understanding of magic."

The understanding of magic is the first step to accomplishing magic.

It is the foundation of magic.

Also the hardest part.

According to Tuyang, it is the understanding of magic that gives magic a variety of forms.

"To activate magic, you must first understand the magic, form the formula in your heart, then refine and condense the magic, and finally release the magic in a fixed form. The order must not be reversed."

"The understanding of magic is indeed the most difficult. This is also the key that makes many people give up their dream of becoming a magician."

"In order to accurately understand magic, we need to chant the correct mantra. The correct mantra can help us concentrate our willpower and make it easier to form the correct magic circuit in our brain. It can be understood as helping to form an 'abstract concept'."

Li Muran listened carefully.

Raise your hand now and then.

"Are the incantations just helping to form abstract concepts? I thought incantations were necessary. It seems not."

"Spells are indeed not necessary. But it is difficult for ordinary people to maintain the abstract concept of magic in their minds. If there is a slight deviation in thinking, magic will change. As I said before, unstable magic is It’s dangerous. So it’s best to chant mantras. According to my experience, after chanting mantras, the concept will change its image and become stable. Magic power is easier to operate.”

"Why do spells help stabilize concepts?"

"I don't know about this. This is what our predecessors taught us. Just like the leaves are green and the sky is blue, it is a matter of course. We have never questioned it. As for what you said, it is not necessary There are also those who can perfectly present abstract concepts by chanting mantras. They are all geniuses. Lady Nana can do it, and I can do some. By the way, this kind of situation is called no chanting."

I see.

That's the thing about the no chant mentioned in novels and manga.

"Different types of magic have different understandings. The magic understanding of dark magic is suitable for dark magic. This is why students with dark attribute aptitude should learn from dark magicians instead of learning from other magicians. Because other types of magic The usage is different, and the understanding of magic is also different."

"Of course, this is not absolute. As long as you have a certain talent, you can use the magic understanding of other magic to release the magic of this department. This kind of behavior is called magic creation. But generally speaking, there are few cases where the effect is good. .So it will not be widely circulated, and no one will continue to use it.”

Li Muran understands.

It's like bringing the snacks that southerners like to open a store in the north.

In the beginning, everyone tried something new because it was new.

But soon found that it was not to my liking, and the snacks in the north were more suitable to the appetite of northerners.

This kind of innovation will be left out in the cold, and will eventually be drowned in the long river of history, and will eventually have no voice.

"The characteristics of dark attribute magic are curse; unstable, easy to explode; high consumption; taboo; opposite to light magic; soul magic. It is regarded by many people as the reason for the fear of unknown magic.”

"Master Isa and other forest elves are good at wind magic, which is mild; natural magic; auxiliary magic; low mana consumption; large range. Although it seems that wind magic is much weaker than dark magic in terms of power. But natural magic has both dark magic and light magic. no features."

"A powerful natural mage can not only extract magic power from the body, but also absorb magic essence scattered in nature with the same attribute and convert it into magic power. In terms of endurance, natural magic is far stronger than dark magic and light magic. And even if it is weak, This kind of power is enough in small wars. In addition, there are very few dark attribute mages, and natural mages are the mainstream, so the position of natural mages is still very high."

Li Muran understood a little bit.

Magic power is like a piece of iron. When magic is not activated, it is just a pile of raw materials that cannot exert special power.

To activate magic, you first need to form a concept through 'magic understanding'.

Make a mental picture of the weapon.

This drawing is not scribbled. According to professional expertise, choose what you are good at to paint.

For example, if you are studying firearms, you have to draw drawings of firearms.

Don't draw sword drawings.

Casually drawing non-professional drawings will only affect your work efficiency and progress.

There may even be cases where defective products are produced.

The process of chanting is the catalyst to finalize the drawings.

It's as if some novelists get inspired when they listen to songs and speed up their writing.

The key to this process is abstract thinking, which is directly affected by your knowledge and knowledge.

If you guessed right, Li Muran is more talented than Tuyang and the others in this respect. After all, they are people who have gone to college and worked. In terms of foresight, it far surpasses these country people who have never been out of the village.

Also, the practice of actually manipulating material processing without using drawings is called 'no chant'.

It is a stunt exclusively for veteran drivers.

Only veterans with a high level of proficiency can do it.

Once you have the blueprint, you need to process the magic power into a weapon according to the blueprint through 'magic power refining and shaping'.

We make it a gun.

The last thing is to shoot the bullet out through the "magic power release".

Complete the entire magic release process.

Of course, magic cannot be turned into a gun, only the style stipulated by magic understanding.

Dark Bomb, Dark Arrow.

It takes imagination and the support of science to develop new magic on top of it.

That's another story.

The principle of magic can be understood in this way.

Although it is magic, the process is very scientific.

Li Muran understood immediately.

Of course, what always sounds simple in theory is difficult in practice.

"Abaya, Tusalar."

"Abaya, Tusalar."

Learn to do it like a sheep.

Li Muran couldn't complete the magic at all.

Even after listening to Tuyang's explanation and chanting mantras, there is no specific concept in his head.

As Tuyang said, understanding magic is not easy.

Forming stable abstractions is not an easy task.
