The heavy rain finally stopped at dusk, and the air was filled with a fresh smell of after the rain, and the city was washed exceptionally clean by the heavy rain, and the colors of the streets suddenly became vivid, with red tiles and white walls, and green trees.

Pale golden sunlight shone down from the holes in the clouds, draped the imperial capital after the rain with a layer of golden wisps, the floating royal city loomed above the clouds, and several royal gippen knights kept hovering over the imperial capital.

The thick clouds were quietly blown away by gusts of wind, and those thick clouds like cotton wool changed various shapes in the sky, some like a towering mountain, some like a snow-white marshmallow, some like horses running on the prairie, and some like lovers hidden in their hearts for a long time.

Looking into the distance, I exhaled the last breath of stuffy breath in my chest, and I was so wet that I was not uncomfortable, and the last trace of thunder and lightning power slowly dissipated in my body, and the paralyzing effect of my body was finally completely eliminated, but the mana storm in my body showed no sign of subsiding.

The roof of the building is filled with a strong aura of water elements, these abundant water elements continue to pour into the body through countless nodes, those mana in the body is like a torrent through the meridians into the magic pool, full of magic power in the magic pool like a wind wolf on the sea, constantly stirring and slapping the reef on the shore, at any time may break through the invisible barrier around the magic pool.

I sat on the roof of the building like a chicken in the soup, there was still a scorched mark on the skirt of the magic robe, and the wound was not so painful, but I suddenly found that at this time I actually had a sign of advancing again, which made me completely panic for a while.

I didn't dare to move at will, so I could only concentrate on manipulating the mana in the magic pool, trying to calm down the turbulent mana tide in my body.

It's been less than a month since the last promotion, and I'm worried that a short period of continuous upgrading will affect my magic cultivation in the future.

At this time, the magic power in the body rotated with the magic vortex in the magic pool, driving countless nodes like star maps in the body to rotate around the magic pool, and the magic elements in the surrounding air followed the nodes in my body to rotate, forming an expanding magic vortex in a corner of the roof, this kind of body and the natural world are blended together, and the magic power in the body resonates with the magic power of the outside world, which is a rare opportunity for any magician.

There is no need to meditate at all, those rich water elements rush into my body like a flood that bursts the embankment, constantly impacting the magic pool in my body, putting me on the verge of promotion, I let myself enter a state similar to meditation, and concentrate on controlling the water element mana surging in my body, guiding them not to rush into the magic barrier, but the surging magic power in the magic pool is already in a state of complete overflow, and at this time, there are still new water element magic power pouring into the magic pool.

I've minimized the speed of the magic vortex, but the magic still gathers in, as if it was about to break through the walls of the magic pool in a few moments.

I leaned against the roof wall with my eyes closed, like a navigator in the sea of storms, facing the wind and waves composed of the magical aura of the water element, not daring to relax in the slightest.

At this juncture, the iron door on the roof of the building suddenly came with a 'squeak', and the iron door was actually pushed open at this time, and at the same time a rush of eager and chaotic footsteps sounded, and a group of people poured into the roof, I am afraid they will see me soon...... Or have found me.

However, at this time, if I don't work hard to pull the mana in the magic pool, then I will be promoted to the magic level in the next second, and at this critical moment, I don't have time to open my eyes.

But apparently, the steady footsteps stopped when they were still some distance away from me.

Looks like they didn't want to bother me recklessly.

At this time, an extremely familiar voice came to my ears, it was the voice of Scholar Sean, "Who should I be who triggered the natural laws of the water element world on the roof of the building, and can break the shackles of the magic pool barrier with the abundant water element breath after the rain, and let yourself improve your magic level, you kid still has quite an idea!"

As soon as the words fell, he immediately overturned his speculation, "Hey, no, you're suppressing the magic power in your body, why don't you want to advance?"

I didn't know how keen my magical perception needed to be able to feel even such subtle differences, and I was a little excited, and I wanted to open my eyes and break free from my current state, and ask Scholar Sean for a way out of this predicament.

At this time, he heard the urgent warning voice of the Sean scholar: "If you don't want to advance for the time being, then don't open your eyes and guide the mana in the magic pool, although your method is not quite right, but at least for now, you can control the mana in your body." ”

I hurriedly suppressed my impatience and controlled the mana in the magic pool not to impact the barrier of the magic pool, and at the same time reduced the rotation speed of the magic vortex to a minimum.

Hearing an old voice's praise: "Hehe, now there are still young people who don't value magic levels and are not impetuous, it is rare to have such a delicate elemental manipulation ability, and can increase the elemental affinity to this level, Sean, come and see, a rare young water magician, do you know him?"

Scholar Sean's tone softened, and he seemed to have great respect for this old voice, so he heard Scholar Sean say: "Well, of course, he is a freshman who has entered this year, and he has performed well in all aspects, and he has joined the Water Magician Alliance. ”

The old voice laughed 'haha' and then said to Scholar Sean, "You're really ...... It's fast enough, since it's not an anomaly in the magic tower, you are naturally in charge of the people of the Water Magician Alliance, in that case, I'll go back to the laboratory first, there is a small experiment over there that hasn't been completed yet!"

The sound of footsteps in my ears slowly dimmed, and it seemed that the man had slowly walked away.

There was silence all around, but I could feel that the Sean Scholar was not leaving.

After a moment of silence, Scholar Sean said: "Listen, boy, I know that you are suppressing the mana in your body with all your might, you should still be able to hear what I said, since you are deliberately suppressing the mana in your body, and you don't want to be promoted to the magic level immediately, then there must be some reason for you." ”

The footsteps continued, and Scholar Sean came to me, his voice became much clearer, "But there are some cultivation techniques here, and you can't get access to your first-year magic course, so now you have to do what I say, although I don't know the benefits of refining and extracting the magic power in the body too early, but since it is your own choice, then how to choose, you can decide slowly." ”

I heard Scholar Sean babble again: "Because although this can make the mana in your magic pool more condensed and the foundation more solid, it will also greatly slow down your magic cultivation." ”

He continued, "First of all, you must have a misconception at the moment, that is, you must have a misconception that only by slowing down the rotation speed of the magic vortex as much as possible will you suppress your own promotion to the magic level. ”

At this time, it was as if the Sean Scholar had taken me into a whole new realm of magic, and it was knowledge that I couldn't usually touch, and perhaps, as the Sean Scholar said, it was just not suitable for us new magic students to learn for the time being.

He almost didn't introduce the origin of this magic as if he was in class, he said: "Because in the conventional perception of magic students, the faster the magic vortex in the magic pool rotates, the faster the mana recovery speed will be accelerated, but this is only the appearance of it, after entering the deeper level, the magicians will find that the magic vortex that spins at super speed will not only not speed up the recovery of mana, but will absorb the mana accumulated in the magic pool." ”

Isn't the rapid rotation of the magic vortex a great increase in the speed of mana recovery? Could there be other ......

My ears pricked up, and I listened more carefully to Scholar Sean's explanations than in class.

Just listen to Scholar Sean: "In this way, once the magic vortex in the magic pool is rotated at excessive speed, it will have a certain impact on future meditation cultivation, this is because when you are in the process of meditation, the magic recovery speed will decrease, and the magic level cultivation speed will also slow down, which is not completely beneficial to a junior magician, after all, in the magic world, magicians usually attach more importance to the magic level." ”

"The reason is very simple, a junior mage who has refined and extracted mana will never be able to defeat an intermediate mage who has completed the first transfer, even if the intermediate mage does not refine mana, the huge gap in rank will create a huge gap in strength between them, and what the current mages need is something more practical. ”

Speaking of this, Scholar Sean sighed faintly, it seemed that he didn't quite agree with the inner thoughts of the young magicians, but this was clearly the idea of the majority.

Scholar Sean leaned into my ear and said to me, "So now, listen, I'm going to show you how to condense the mana in the magic pool, boy, I don't want to talk about such a simple thing over and over again!"

‘...... You're so impatient, you're not like that in class, are you still the elder who follows the good path?' I complained in my heart.

Scholar Sean continued: "I try to make a long story short, in fact, the way to condense your own mana is very simple, that is, to control the magic vortex to rotate at high speed, if your magic control ability is enough, when the magic vortex overspeed rotation reaches a specific critical point, the magic vortex will condense the mist mana value in the magic pool into a drop of liquid mana, and at the same time, these liquids will drip from the center of the vortex into the bottom of the magic pool, in short, this is the condensation process of mana. ”

Listening to Scholar Sean's words, I controlled the magic vortex, and began to increase the speed of rotation, and the magic power in my body became more vibrating. The mana in the magic pool I found was already difficult to control, and the barriers around the magic pool had cracked and could collapse at any time......

......

Life in the academy is so relaxed, it's rare to have a quiet afternoon.

Lying on the bed in the dormitory, I woke up from meditation and savored the high-speed rotation of the magic vortex, which was like an oil press, compressing the misty mana in the magic pool into drops of liquid mana, which slowly deposited at the bottom of the magic pool, and felt like I had half a bottle of water in my body, which was very subtle.

As Scholar Sean said, after learning this method of refining mana, sure enough, my cultivation speed slowed down, and what I gained was that my mana became a little more refined.

Now there is no need to deliberately reduce the number of meditations, but to increase the amount of meditation time. Recently, I secretly observed the number of times Noah meditated every day, and his limit was about ten times a day, while I could do it almost twenty-five times, which means that my mental power was almost twice as high as his, maybe more.

However, he also seems to have a magic accessory similar to Ying Li's 'Demon Gathering Earrings', which can increase his magic cultivation speed, but Noah is still very low-key in this regard, and has never shown it off in front of me.

The reason why I've been idle recently is because the Yerkes scholar locked himself in the laboratory of the research institute, and he began to redesign all the magic pattern drawings of all the parts except the leather armor of the 'Demon Serpent's Fang', mainly to make full use of the magic effect brought by the 'companion magic pattern', so that all the magic patterns of the primary magic pattern construction became more complicated.

Scholar Yerkis didn't ask where he learned the magic pattern, which he thought might be a secret of mine.

Actually, I wanted to tell him about the mysterious scroll, but when I only revealed some companion magic patterns to him, he refused, and his reason was that those magic patterns were completely beyond his knowledge of magic runes, so he didn't plan to touch those unfamiliar runes.

After all, it is the royal city of the Grimm Empire, which is far away from the smoke and flames of war on the battlefield, and in recent times, there have been new battles coming back from various planes, although the situation on the battlefield in each plane is still very tense, but the situation is getting better little by little.

Noah said that I would wait for him in the dormitory in the afternoon, and I didn't know what was going on.

A few days ago, he asked him to help me inquire about the demonic cloth merchant here in the imperial capital, but he never replied to me.

While I was thinking about my bed, I saw the bedroom door pushed open, and Noah walked in with two pieces of parchment.
