Chapter 142
“Obviously, a Mage.”
“Then what about his strength?”
“Strength?”
The man recalled Fang Bai’s backpack full of spell scrolls.
“Super strong, very difficult to deal with. To deal with him, you must instantly kill him!”
“Only an instant kill can prevent him from using spell scrolls. Otherwise, I can’t imagine what it would be like if so many spell scrolls were thrown out all at once.
So it’s best not to be enemies with him. In my opinion, the current situation is quite good. Each takes what they need. We can buy spell scrolls by paying some crystal cores and elemental materials. It’s quite good.”
Li Jie nodded slightly upon hearing this. He glanced at the other two and immediately understood their attitudes.
The three looked at each other and left immediately.
Fang Bai, who was escaping underground, was also thinking about a problem.
“In battle, the spells in my spell slots can be cast almost instantly, as long as I react.
But the premise is that I have to react. If I don’t react in time, or if I’m in a coma due to an accident, then the spell slots are useless.
In addition to needing me to react, using spell scrolls also requires the steps of taking them out and using them, which takes a lot of time.
Casting spells myself is even slower. In addition to reaction time, I also have to construct the spell model.
The good thing about this is that as long as it’s within my Mental Power range, I can cast it anywhere.
In short, my frontal combat power is not weak. The more prepared I am, the stronger my combat power may be. But in the face of emergencies, I may be much worse off.
I’m vulnerable to assassination. It would be great if there was a spell that could automatically detect danger and then activate automatically.”
Fang Bai thought as he rushed back to Yi Hao Village. The situation where he couldn’t sense the man’s Mental Power after he hid had made him more vigilant.
Mental Power is not omnipotent. If you blindly trust Mental Power, you may pay a heavy price one day, and this price may even be your life!
Fang Bai’s heart tightened slightly, but he couldn’t think of any good solution for a while, so he could only keep this matter in mind.
It was already late at night when he returned to Yi Hao Village, but Yi Hao Village was still a scene of bustling activity.
Bright torches and bonfires replaced the original lights, and the villagers continued to build the village’s defense system under the command.
The construction site in Yi Hao Village has always been operating in three shifts, day and night, in order to build the walls as soon as possible and prepare to resist magical beasts. People always spare no effort in defense and building safe shelters.
After returning to the village, Fang Bai first used crystal cores to help Wang Kai enter a cultivation state, then let him explore the wonders of the elements in his body on his own, while he himself returned to his own house.
Back in his room, Fang Bai first opened his notebooks one by one.
In just over ten days, Fang Bai had accumulated a thick stack of notebooks, each of which was filled with records. There were spell models, spell nodes, spell architectures, some rules and experiences summarized by Fang Bai’s research, and complete records of Fang Bai’s series of experiments.
Fang Bai first read through the entire thing, reviewing his previous research, letting the knowledge flow slowly through his mind, and then integrated the several spell models and spell architectures obtained from this trip into it. When he looked at these spell architectures again, Fang Bai suddenly had a new understanding in his heart.
However, Fang Bai didn’t study it immediately. Instead, he took out the manuscript from his mind and took out all eighty-seven crystal cores that he had collected this time and previously.
When he got the crystal cores today, Fang Bai had a feeling that the energy inside the crystal cores was enough.
“Eighty-seven, plus the manuscript’s usual absorption of elemental power, and the occasional crystal core elemental power I instill, it should be enough, right?”
Fang Bai’s thoughts moved, and the elemental power inside all eighty-seven crystal cores surged towards the manuscript and merged into it.
At this moment, Fang Bai instantly felt a full feeling from the manuscript. When he opened it, the text symbols on the fifth page evolved rapidly. As the elemental power on the manuscript disappeared, the text on the fifth page was completely revealed.
Fang Bai looked at it impatiently.
“What’s the difference between fixing a spell model on a spell scroll and fixing it on a building? Aren’t they both spell scrolls, just with different carriers?”
When Fang Bai saw the first sentence, his mind was immediately hooked. This question had been bothering him for a long time, and he didn’t expect it to be pointed out directly. Fang Bai immediately continued to read.
“I used to be troubled by this problem. I didn’t fully understand it until I successfully erected my Mage Tower.
It wasn’t until I successfully connected to heaven and earth one time that I suddenly understood.”
“I have divided items with fixed spell models into two types. The first type is tools.
All spell models, all items that have fixed spell models and can be moved are classified as tools.
The characteristics of tools are that they only fix spell models. The elemental power required by the spell model is generally absorbed from the outside world. The characteristics they possess include being easy to carry, easy to use, and so on.
Then there’s the second type, buildings. As the name suggests, anything that has fixed spell models and is immobile is considered a building by me.
This immobility doesn’t mean that the building can’t be moved after it’s built. That’s not the case. It’s like my Mage Tower that has a fixed Blink spell. It blinks very smoothly. I used to think it was a building, but later I didn’t think so. This kind of movable Mage Tower is considered a special tool by me.
Of course, there are some exceptions. Not all movable buildings are tools. There are some special cases, and it can’t be generalized.
The immobility of the building I’m referring to is the spell model. Once it moves, the spell model will definitely fail. But as long as it’s in place, the spell model will definitely connect to the environment and use the power of the environment to amplify the power of the spell model. The peak is to use the power of heaven and earth to amplify the power of the spell model.
And the spells cast by the latter are classified as Forbidden Spells by me.”
The moment Fang Bai finished reading, he suddenly understood. Of course, more questions arose, making Fang Bai even more eager to continue reading.
The theoretical part was over, and what followed was the specific spell model and fixing techniques.
Fang Bai looked intently at the spell structures and spell models above, while watching, his fingers waved and gestured randomly in the air. After a long time, when the sky gradually brightened, Fang Bai’s eyes slowly left the manuscript.
“Awesome.”
Fang Bai said softly. He felt that he had received a heavyweight inheritance.
“If these spell models can really reach the level recorded in the manuscript, then from this moment on, Mages are going to become powerful.”
Putting the manuscript back into his mind, Fang Bai recalled a spell model recorded in the manuscript with anticipation.
According to the manuscript, this spell was very simple, but at the same time extremely important. An ordinary One-Ring Spell could almost be used all the way to the Master level.
Stone Wall!
A spell that shines in the field of construction and even participates in the construction of floating cities.
“According to the manuscript, the use of Stone Wall is to summon a stone wall, and the shape and details of this stone wall can be controlled by the Mage.”
“Stone Wall!”
As Fang Bai’s spell model structure was completed, with a light tap of his finger, a two-meter-high, thirty-centimeter-thick stone wall quickly rose from the ground, blocking Fang Bai.
Fang Bai looked at the stone wall and pondered slightly, recalling the feeling during the casting process. After a moment, another stone wall slowly rose beside the house.
