Chapter 023: The First Spell
A week later.
A strangely shaped windmill stood behind Richard's palace, and when a gust of wind blew, the turret at the top of the windmill automatically adjusted, making a "squeak" sound, and the main blades mounted on it began to rotate in line with the direction of the wind.
Mechanical energy transfer.
"Brush, brush!"
The rotating blades rotate through the gears and crankshaft, driving a magnet rotor underneath to rotate. A metal coil around the rotor continuously generates current, which is connected by the wire and enters the bottom.
Mechanical energy becomes electrical energy.
At the bottom, a simple and practical lead-acid battery is fixed, absorbing the current and storing it, waiting to be released when it is used.
Electrical energy is converted into chemical energy.
......
Night.
Richard Palace, bedrooms.
Richard sat on the bed with a fully charged lead-acid battery in front of him.
Richard, whose eyes were closed and in deep meditation, felt his body vibrate rapidly, and then, like a butterfly breaking out of a cocoon, his consciousness body rushed out of his body.
Looking at the physical body with the eyes of a conscious body, Richard tried to invoke mental power and gain control of the physical body. This kind of thing has been done many times before, and it can be regarded as a light car, so soon, the body sitting cross-legged on the bed moved, and the hands were slowly raised, touching the two external wires of the lead-acid battery.
"Crackle!"
The moment the physical hands touch the wire, the body itself, as a conductor, forms a closed circuit with the lead-acid battery, and the current flows out of the lead-acid battery and flows rapidly in the flesh. The sensation of electric shock spread throughout the body, and through the transparent band on the back of the erection neck, it was transmitted to Richard's consciousness body, numb and scorching.
The bioelectric currents in the flesh begin to increase dramatically, and the cells of the body enter a "highly activated state".
Richard recalled the contents of "The Monroe Chapter", and while recalling, he mobilized his spiritual strength to condense.
When the spiritual power is condensed to the extreme, it becomes a semi-corporeal, very small thing, like a speck of dust. Control this particle of spiritual dust to float to the position of the heart socket, fix it, and then condense another particle of spiritual dust and stick it together.
This process, similar to swallow nesting, is a time-consuming process.
According to the Monroe Chapter, "opening up the source of law" is very important for shamans, and it often takes dozens of days or even months.
The longer it takes and the larger the volume of the mana source to build, the more mana (energy) it stores, allowing the release of a greater number of spells.
Of course, since the source of the law can be constructed, it can also be transformed. There are many wizards who only open up a small magic source at the beginning, and later feel that they can't meet their own needs, and then transform and expand the volume of the magic source.
However, the process of transforming the source of law is not much easier than opening up a new source, so wizards who do not want to transform the source of law will continue to open up new sources of law as their strength increases. It is said that the most powerful sorcerer has more than ten magic sources, and his mana will hardly be exhausted.
Of course, with more than ten Dharma sources, how to make perfect use of the mana in each Dharma source without causing it to clash is also a big problem. However, for wizards who have not yet started - wizard apprentices, it is obviously a bit early to consider this.
While thinking, Richard continued to condense the spiritual dust, slowly constructing his first Dharma source. As a result, after a busy night, it was only to build an area the size of a fingernail, which was too far from constructing a complete Fa source.
However, Richard was not in a hurry, and for a long time to come, he continued to build patiently.
So as time passed, the source of the law took shape little by little, and finally formed a standard diamond shape in the middle of Richard's chest.
Subsequently, Richard had to face the third life reshaping of becoming a wizard - energy smelting.
According to the explanation in the "Monroe Chapter", the function of energy smelting is to convert the energy absorbed by the star projection into the purest standard energy, that is, mana.
To put it simply, because of the different stars, the energy projected by the stars is mixed and varied. Even if this energy is stored in the magic source, it is difficult to summon it, and it can only be used to release spells by "smelting" them into unified mana.
In order to carry out the third life reshaping of "energy smelting", it is necessary to put the body in a "high-energy state".
Regarding this "high-energy state", in the process of opening up the source of law, Richard also had many speculations, among which he felt that the most likely was the "magnetic field".
The "Monroe Chapter" describes: The second life reinvention and the third life reinvention both have energy covering the whole body, which has a certain similarity, but it is not exactly the same.
Considering the relationship between electricity and magnetism, this third reshaping of life can be basically determined.
And it is easy to solve it when it is determined, and it is simpler than the first life reshaping and the second life remodeling. Because of electromagnetic induction, electromagnetism is not separated - magnetic energy generates electricity, and electricity can generate magnetism as well.
In the bedroom, a metal coil is arranged around the bed, and when the current in the lead-acid battery flows down the coil, a magnetic field is naturally formed.
Richard, who was in the middle of it, clearly felt that the energy stored in the mana source was refined little by little, and finally turned into mana.
At this point, the three obstacles that have become wizards, the so-called three life reshapings, have all been broken by scientific methods. The door that cast the spell opened with a bang.
......
A month and a half later.
Late at night.
The entire Blue Lion City had fallen asleep, and the palace was quiet.
Richard Palace, bedrooms.
Instead of meditating, Richard tonight stood in front of the window, not knowing what to think.
Half-ringing, turning his head, Richard's eyes fell on the bed, on which was the "Monroe Chapter", and was turning to a certain page, on which a zero-ring spell was recorded.
Zero Ring Spell.
According to the records in the "Monroe Chapter", spells can be divided into zero-ring spells, one-ring spells, two-ring spells, three-ring spells, etc., corresponding to different wizard levels.
Among them, the Wizard Apprentice can cast a zero-ring spell, and occasionally a less powerful one-ring spell.
A first-level wizard releases a ring of spells, and in an explosive state, he can release some of the second ring spells.
Second-level wizards, they usually release two-ring spells, and when they are desperate, some three-ring spells can also be released.
And so on.
And each ring of spells is divided into three small levels: low-level, medium-level, and high-level.
Obviously, the higher the number of rings of a spell, the more powerful and difficult the spell becomes. In fact, the power of the one-ring spell alone is already terrifying, and the most powerful one-ring spell, that is, the high-level one-ring spell, is comparable to the power of missiles on modern earth.
The Zero Ring spell is the lowest level of the spell, most of which have no destructive power, and can only play some role indirectly, such as lighting, opening doors, repelling enemies, alerting beasts, and so on.
The weakest of the Zero Ring spells, the low-level Zero Ring spells, are often referred to as tricks by wizards.
At this time, the spell that Richard was looking at, even if it was such a trick, was called - Phosphorus Candle!
Crete...... Adversity...... Plas ...... Turk ...... Aenizer ......"
An obscure incantation came out of his mouth, and Richard slowly stretched out a hand.
The next moment, the Dharma source in the body shook, and the mana gushed out, running along the blood vessels at high speed, and a certain change occurred in the operation.
When the operation reaches a certain speed, the mana becomes active, like boiling water, and when it passes through the blood vessels, there is a noticeable burning sensation.
Richard's palm shook, and the active mana went down the radial artery, entered the palmar vein, reached the fingertips, and then rushed out.
The five fingers of Richard's right hand shook violently, and five clusters of flames appeared with a "poof", burning quietly.
The five fingers closed towards the middle, and the five flames merged into a single flame, burning more violently, illuminating the entire bedroom. In the blue light, the atmosphere of the whole house became gloomy, and the sultry summer night was a little colder, as if the air had suddenly dropped several degrees.
"Phosphorus candles, does phosphorus burn? So the color of the flame is blue?" said Richard to himself, holding the flame to the window, looking outside, and there was no one.
With a throw of the hand, the flame was thrown from the hand, flying in the air, and then the volume quickly expanded, from the original size of a fist, to the size of a basin, and then the size of a bathtub.
The flames with a diameter of more than half a meter reflected the ground in front of the palace into a dark blue, which was extremely strange, and just as it was about to continue to expand, it was extinguished with a "poof", as if it had never existed, and disappeared without a trace.
Edward, the captain of the guard who was keeping vigil at the gate of the palace, suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing. I felt as if I had seen something terrible in the peripheral vision of my eyes just now, but when I looked around, there was nothing.
"Is that wrong?" Edward shook his head, lowering his head back to the palm-sized book in his hand, revisiting the "knowledge" he had learned. ”
Countess Elizabeth smiled charmingly, her white and tender right hand rested on her lover's shoulder, and her other hand slowly touched her lover's lower body, inch by inch...... Suddenly, the lover's body moved violently...... Gollum ......"
......
Richard in the bedroom felt a special energy fluctuation dissipate outside the window, looked at his hands without any burn marks, and his eyes lit up slightly: "Spells, real spells? Is this a pseudoscience that science can't explain, or is it a hidden science that hasn't been explored on modern Earth?" But anyway, this world, the legend of wizards seems to be true. In this case, I want to find out the truth of this world and figure out how I came to this world. Interesting. ”
Closing his eyes as if he was savoring something, and when he opened his eyes after half a ring, Richard nodded and said seriously: "Well, it's really interesting." ”
