The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#66 - Spell Model
Doug didn't say it directly. He searched under the counter, found paper and a pen, wrote a note, turned it around, and placed it in front of Dolai, his finger still pressing down on it.
Dolai lowered his head and saw the address. At this moment, Doug took the note back, gently rubbed it, and the note turned into scraps of paper. He casually threw the scraps into the nearby trash can.
Seeing this, Dolai was shocked. This Doug's strength as a warrior was not low.
He didn't speak and turned to leave.
At this moment, Doug said softly again, "Now that you're here, aren't you going to take a task? You've done one Level 1 task and one Level 2 task. Now you've been promoted to a Level 2 assassin and can take Level 2 tasks."
Dolai didn't want to take Level 1 tasks at all. Hearing that he could take Level 2 tasks, he immediately stopped, turned around, and said with interest, "Let me see."
Doug smiled slightly and took out another notebook.
This notebook was not thick, with only two or three pages.
Dolai took the notebook in his hand and carefully flipped through it from beginning to end.
Level 2 tasks were much more difficult than Level 1 tasks. Level 1 tasks were just killing ordinary people like Feller, at most intermediate apprentices, mostly civilians. Level 2 tasks were much more difficult. Most targets were advanced apprentices, or down-and-out nobles, or even nobles with real power.
This target was not easy to choose. The death of one or two civilians, or even ordinary officials, didn't matter, but the death of a noble, or even a down-and-out noble, would cause a backlash from the entire noble group, which was not a good thing. Bondi's death last time caused a city-wide purge.
He read through the contents and then shook his head, saying, "I need to do some investigation before deciding which task to choose."
Doug nodded and smiled, "No problem, safety first."
Dolai quickly left the bar and quickly blended into the darkness.
He didn't go directly to the place on the note, because it wasn't one place, but many places, rotating every month, and the black market's opening was time-limited and required patience. Dolai was not in a hurry. In the next few days, he could adapt to the abilities of an advanced apprentice and strengthen his methods.
The biggest difference between an advanced apprentice and an intermediate apprentice was that the mental strength was so strong that it extended to all parts of the body, even to the surface of the body. This allowed them to touch objects through mental strength and use spellcasting materials to cast Level 0 cantrips. The most famous of these was the Burning Hands.
Burning Hands, through spellcasting materials, could make the entire hand burn, burning, scorching, and harming enemies, greatly enhancing the attack ability. It could also be attached to weapons that were not afraid of high temperatures to kill enemies with flames, comparable to the aura attachment attack of a Level 1 warrior, with great power. In the entire Domon City, there were only seven or eight Level 1 warriors, which shows the power of an advanced apprentice.
Among the many professions, the wizard profession has the highest lethality.
After reading Narr's biography, Dolai was very envious of this seemingly cool Level 0 magic.
Another Level 0 magic that must be learned is the very famous Level 0 magic, Wizard's Hand. Its greatest function is not to injure enemies, but to create alchemical equipment.
In addition to Level 0 magic, there are also some small mental tricks. For example, he can put hallucinogenic potions in his hand, and then surround them with mental strength. When using them, he can release them into the surrounding environment with mental strength. He can also use contact to bewitch others with hallucinogenic potions, which is the same as using sleeping pills, but there is a more choice, more concealed.
He quickly returned to the slums, changed his clothes, and quietly came to the street, walking towards his home.
No one followed him today. He returned home, went to the room, lit the candle, took out Narr's biography, and began to read it.
Wizard's Hand, emmm, no materials, put it down first, let's look at Burning Hands first.
There are three kinds of alchemical materials for Burning Hands: white phosphorus, sulfur, and charcoal. It needs to be mixed with hallucinogenic potion in a certain proportion. After drying, it forms a white powdery substance, which can be released when placed in the hand.
The process of releasing magic can be divided into three types. One is to release by chanting spells, the second is to release by constructing a mental spell model, and the third is to release using complex gestures.
In the wizard system, witchcraft or magic is not immutable, not just a fixed routine. The difference lies in the materials used to cast the magic, or the spell model for constructing the magic.
There are many spellcasting techniques. The book introduces a lot. After reading all the information, I found that there are also some unique techniques in magic rune studies or magic potion studies, which made Dolai a little confused. Finally, I had to ask Baal.
As a creature above Level 7, Baal definitely has a great advantage in this regard.
When Dolai asked Baal, Baal tilted his head, seemingly mocking him.
"You can ask me, which shows that you don't have a clear concept of wizards. Indeed, you don't have a teacher, no one to point out the way forward for you."
Dolai was expressionless, his eyes disdainful. He has a teacher, what do I need you for.
Baal lazily lay on the ground, his head on his paws, his dog face showing a strange smile, "Hehe, if you want to become a great magician, you must abandon these two methods of spells and gestures, and learn to release through constructing a spell model. Spells and gestures are for mediocre people. Whether it is a spell or a gesture, it takes a very long time to prepare. During this time, you have no defense at all. The real mage is to cast spells with a single thought, instantly casting spells."
Dolai was thoughtful.
The newest novels are all first published on 69shu.com!
Constructing a spell model is the most difficult of all spellcasting, because if the mental strength is not stable enough at the beginning, if there are dozens or hundreds of nodes in the magic rune, it is impossible to construct it in an instant, unless you wait until your strength is strong enough.
However, he looked at the magic rune of Burning Hands, and it seemed that there were only dozens of nodes, which seemed easy.
Magic rune studies is similar to spells in this respect. They both use strange runes and spell nodes. Even the refining scrolls in magic rune studies are to seal the spell model of magic into the scroll, and tearing it open can be used as magic.
In the wizarding world, the concepts of witchcraft and magic are common, but witchcraft is the wizard's own name, and magic is the general term of the people.
After getting this clear concept, Dolai focused on magic rune studies.
Constructing a spell model naturally requires using mental strength to construct it. After the construction is successful, absorbing energy is considered to be forming a complete witchcraft, and in the advanced apprentice stage, mental strength cannot leave the body and cannot touch external energy, so spellcasting materials that can contact the body become a key factor.
So that's what Level 0 cantrips are like. Dolai instantly understood the important meaning of spellcasting materials. This thing only plays a role in contacting potential energy, and the real effect is still the mental strength itself.
After understanding this, Dolai knew what to do.
Magic runes and spell models are all fixed rune shapes. Although they are fixed runes, there are also changes, adjusted according to each person's understanding of witchcraft.
The magic rune of Burning Hands is like a spoon-type pattern, with a total of thirty-six mental nodes. Seeing this pattern, Dolai felt like there was no difficulty.
