My Magic Age
Chapter 7 7. Magical Perception
Finally, I know what the old Kuru said about the significance of vermicelli to the orcs. Maybe it will slightly change the lives of some poor orc tribes.
Of course, the old Kuru also thought of many other ways to improve the lives of the orcs.
For example, the hemostatic powder can be ground by collecting the royal blood grass as the main ingredient, or the bone knife made from the ribs of the wind wolf. These unique things on the Pai Plateau were rarely noticed before, although they are the inheritance that the orcs have been continuing for thousands of years.
Almost no orcs have thought that these things can be sold to outsiders in addition to their own use, and can be exchanged for exquisite jade combs or glass mirrors.
Over the years, the old Kuru has found many ways, but whether it is herbs or magic beasts, these things are very valuable in themselves. Even if they are not rare, the number is limited, far less than the number of ground potatoes in the mountains and plains.
Even if the ground potato is given to the human merchant group for free, no one will want it. This thing is also used by slaves or manure in the human kingdom, but if it is turned into vermicelli and provides a method of how to make delicious dishes, maybe this is a way out.
It rained coldly at night, and the water drops that formed into ice crystals fell on the cowhide tent with a rustling sound. Several campfires in the camp outside were extinguished, and the people in the caravan dispersed and prepared to rest. I listened to Old Kuru talking about the orcs, and before I knew it, it was already late at night.
Kuz lay on the warm cowhide mattress and slept soundly. Maybe he was really tired during the day, and he even snored. Old Kuru saw that it was getting late, so he put away the magic shield. The moment the magic shield disappeared, my body strangely felt the mysterious blue lines appearing again. Time stopped, and those blue lines turned into dots of starlight and dispersed in the night sky. I knew that was the power of magic.
When Old Kuru saw my unusual expression, he asked with some concern: "What's wrong, kid? What did you feel?"
"Just like before, I saw some blue lines condensed into strange and complex patterns in front of you, and just now I saw those lines dissipate. It's hard to describe." I tried to express it clearly, but I didn't know how to express it. The phrases in the Orcish language itself are not very rich, and I stuttered a little when I encountered such an indescribable situation.
Old Kuru's turbid eyes seemed to become very bright all of a sudden, and his eyes became very sharp. In the dark night, it was like two lights scanning back and forth on me, and he said in an urgent and hoarse tone: "Can you see those magic symbols?"
I was stunned and nodded subconsciously. I know that I look as stupid as a chicken, but Old Kuru's loss of control scared me.
He hastily drew another hexagonal magic circle in the air in front of him. At this moment, strange feelings followed one after another. I felt that the flow of time at this moment became slow. My body was imprisoned at this moment, but I could clearly see the red magic line flowing from the tip of the index finger of Lao Kuru's right hand, and continued to draw a series of mysterious symbols in the center of the hexagonal star symbol.
When this magic circle was finally completed, a scorching fire wave condensed in front of Lao Kuru and ran straight into the night. The dark red fire wave made a crackling sound in the air. This early spring night was originally very cold, but this fire wave rushed into the distant night. The feeling was like wearing a down jacket and taking a plane to Sanya in winter. The moment I got off the plane, the heat wave wrapped my body.
The fire poison brought by the burning fruit in my body also broke out all of a sudden. I was like a patient with burns all over my body.
Every part of my body with flesh and blood had that kind of burning pain, which was excruciating. I was like a roasted red shrimp, "Ah!" The pain made me roar in a dull voice.
"You have such a sharp perception, hi!" Old Kuru was also frightened, and quickly drew a light blue magic circle again. The blue light spot instantly surrounded me, making a subtle wind chime sound, which was beautiful and rapid, forming a line. My body suddenly became cool, and immediately relieved the burning pain on my body.
After a while, I sat on the leather mattress and tried to calm my breathing. Kuz next to me was still sleeping like a dead dog. Maybe it was because the tent was warmer, and there was a comfortable look on his sleeping face. I began to listen carefully to Old Kuru's reason for his surprise.
Each magic is composed of the mana in the body, the magic circle drawn and the spell chanted. It can only be released when they are perfectly combined.
People with magic power in their bodies are not all magicians. This is just one of the necessary factors to become a magician. The magic circle drawn for each magic skill is different. The more complex the magic circle, the more powerful the magic power formed.
At present, all mainstream magic in the world is based on the "Magic and Time Relativity Theory" created by His Majesty Augurado 2,000 years ago.
It is precisely because of this great genius magician that the originally extremely mysterious magic has been carried forward, and countless magicians have continued to use this theory.
In fact, the Magic and Time Relativity Theory says that before each magician releases magic, he can actually use a time-stopping skill on himself, and how long this skill lasts depends on the magician's own level.
This time stop will not affect other people around him, it only acts on the magician himself.
At the moment when magic skills are released, the magic energy in the body first draws a basic magic circle along the meridians of the body. Most of this magic circle is a time magic circle that has been refined to the extreme after thousands of times. This magic circle can make At this moment, time stops relative to the magician himself.
In this state where time has stopped, the magician needs to quickly use magic power to draw various magic arrays and combine them with spells to form different types of magic skills.
The magic circle drawn and the spell issued within 0 seconds increased the success rate of magic release to more than 80%. If you use simple low-level magic, it can even be instantaneous.
Before this theory came out, magicians would all worry about the issue of "the compatibility between the magic circle and the spell".
Many magicians can only use a few magic skills proficiently throughout their lives. The more they know, the less time they have to practice. Once the magic circle drawn over a period of time is not consistent with the spell, then The magic will fail.
It was not until later that Emperor Ogola discovered the connection between magic and time. The first magic that all human magicians need to learn in life is the basic version of "Time Stasis". This magic skill can only make the magician himself stop time. The state is maintained for 1-9 seconds. Of course, the higher the level of the mage, the longer the duration.
The magic circle completed in this time-stopped state is 100% consistent with the spell chanted.
Genius magicians no longer worried about the failure of magic release, so they began to study the magic skill of "time stasis". Later, some people used the meridians of the body to guide the flow of mana, forming a specific magic circle structure of "time stasis".
When Old Kuru releases the magic shield at night, he also blesses himself with "time stasis" for 2 seconds. Logically speaking, no one should be able to see the scene of Old Kuru drawing a magic circle in front of him. Me too. In fact, I didn't see Old Kuru drawing the magic circle, but I felt the surrounding magic elements changing and the formation of the magic circle.
"I think it should be 'magic perception'!" Old Kuru said with certainty. "Every magician has the opportunity to awaken his own innate skills when he awakens in magic, such as magic accuracy, magic perception, magic concealment, magic recovery, magic return, rapid spell casting, various element affinities, etc.
This talent will bring many benefits, the most intuitive of which is that it will be more powerful than ordinary magicians.
I think that if you participate in the Awakening Ceremony, the talent of ‘Magic Perception’ will be very likely to appear.
Because you can now accurately feel the turmoil of the magic elements around your body. Unfortunately, the orc tribe's awakening ceremony is not suitable for you. You can only return to the human world and participate in your own awakening ceremony.
Before that, all I can help you with is laying a solid foundation. Jijia, you may be born to be a magician. "
I rolled my eyes, my ears almost getting wet hearing this sentence.
Old Kuru looked at me and shook his head slowly and said: "I have read a lot of books about 'magic resistance' recently. The human race also has a similar skill 'magic defense'. Speaking of which, the magic core of the orcs is called It is the magic core, formed in the brain.
When we orc magicians practice, the magic core generated by the limbs and bones is concentrated in the brain.
The magic core of the elves is in the chest. Their magic power is a magic tide generated by the beating of the heart. The magic tide is spread around the body with the heart as the center, and the magic power is spread throughout the body.
The core of a human magician's magic is in the lower abdomen. After each human magician awakens, a magic pool will be formed in the lower abdomen. The magic power generated by all the body's limbs is collected in the magic pool, and then distributed from the magic pool to all parts of the body in a cycle.
The way humans gather magic power is somewhat similar to that of orcs, and somewhat similar to that of elves. So I thought you might be able to learn some of our orc magic..."
"But teacher, I haven't even participated in the magic ceremony, I haven't awakened, and I don't even have the most basic magic power. How can I learn magic skills, and it's from an orc?" I complained a little about old Kuru's whims, although He was solving problems for me, but I didn’t even have the most basic skills, so how could I talk about the future?
"Well, actually, how should I put it! Let me think about it." There were times when Old Kuru couldn't explain it, so he thought for a long time silently, and tried to organize his words before saying to me: "If you are an ordinary As a human child, you can only experience the magic circulating in your body after awakening.
It's just that some small accidents happened before. After you accidentally ate the Burning Fruit, the fire poison was actually the magic power of the fire attribute. They were formed in the limbs and bones of your body, but there happened to be no magic core or magic pool in your body. The magic cannot be brought together, it can only stay inside you.
The magic accumulated over time begins to burn your body. "
"You mean that as long as I successfully participate in the awakening ceremony, I can get rid of this damn fire poison?" I finally have a little hope, or the pursuit of coming to this world, maybe becoming a magician is the top priority.
"That's right!" Old Kulu said calmly: "But before that, I also thought of a solution for you.
That is, your limbs and bones can produce magic power, but cannot be gathered into the magic pool. This means that before you awaken to form the magic pool, you have a chance to learn the magic of our orcs.
Although the magic power you generate is very weak, anti-magic is not a powerful spell. Maybe you can learn the lowest level of anti-magic, so that you can generally get rid of the trouble of fire poison.
In fact, I still don't recommend that you learn to resist magic prematurely. If you maintain your current state, your own fire resistance will be enhanced. Patience is not something that can be obtained through practice, it requires opportunity.
This will be of great help to you in your future development..."
Old Kulu Balabala talked a lot, and finally I understood. Learning to resist magic can control fire poison, and I have a special physique, so I can learn it. So what are you waiting for? The damn fire poison will turn me into braised prawns sooner or later.
I suddenly thought of what Kuz said to me during the day. Old Kuru wanted to use those guinea pig skins to sew me a warm and waterproof sleeping bag. I said I didn’t need it, but he said I would definitely use it.
"My child, you helped me find food that is of great significance to the orcs. Maybe in the near future I can buy them to those foreign merchants, and maybe Pailes will also be interested in buying some back, haha , This idea is so wonderful. I hope this secret only belongs to me, you and Kuz, can you understand?" Old Kulu finally talked about the vermicelli I made and how to deal with it.
I think you just want me to spread it everywhere, but how dare I do that?
I gave a big bowl to the entire caravan of more than 200 people, and they are definitely dreaming of laughing and recalling today's delicious food. But if they knew that the vermicelli was made from those damn sweet potatoes, they would have chopped me into pieces and thrown it away. Not in the lake.
"Teacher, I definitely won't say it! I understand." I must act more maturely.
Old Kuru nodded with satisfaction and said: "The orcs' creed emphasizes repaying kindness. In return, I will think about it. We can learn leathermaking and skinning techniques from Fred."
I thought he could give me a few gold coins, but unfortunately he didn't mention it. But in order to learn Uncle Fred's family skills, I helped him brush countless leather saddle covers.
"There is a shield warrior Thain in the adventure group who owes me a favor. Maybe you can learn something from him, preferably a life-saving skill. Oh, I remember I also helped a ranger heal his leg. Hurt, for an elf ranger, survival in the wild is his natural ability, I hope you can learn it."
After speaking, Lao Kulu looked up at the Pai Plateau in the south. Under the night, the mountains were hidden.
He sighed and said: "This trip will be my last time out of the orc tribe. In the following days, I will select some orc children, hoping to find potential among them. So this trip to the Pai Plateau will be my end, and you, mine Child, that will be the time when we part. You have to return to the human kingdom with the caravan. You have to try to integrate into their society. You have to survive in a small town until you know that you can participate in the magic awakening ceremony and become a magician. Apprentice, you will have a new life."
"Ah, teacher, don't leave me!" I suddenly felt a little scared, and I was a little afraid of the future, after all, I was so young.
"I will ask Pailes to take care of you. It will not do any good for your growth if you stay in the orc tribe. Our combat skills and magic skills are not suitable for human children, so you have to find your new life here. Before, I will try hard to let you learn some survival skills, You must also learn to protect yourself. Do not show your unique abilities to outsiders before participating in the awakening ceremony. That will put you in danger in the eyes of some evil magicians. ." Old Kuru's warning echoed repeatedly in my ears.
