For ordinary players, being able to rely on casting low-level spells to achieve the effect of flying through the sky that only fifth-order spells can have, which is naturally extremely attractive.

When one player first brought this up, for a while, a large number of mage players tried to make themselves walk in the air with their spellcasting ability.

Even if they can only walk in the air and can't make people fly freely like real fifth-order magic, all the mages who have heard of this still have a great longing for it.

However, after countless attempts, the players at the time finally had to give up this idea, believing that it was impossible to walk freely in the air with the Hercules Aegis.

For the most part, mages can't make changes to spells that are already systematic. A spell similar to the Hercules Aegis is a spell that is used to block attacks after a large number of mages have explored to determine how it is cast.

Ordinary mages, without the blessing of special skills, it is difficult for them to make changes to the spells that will be cast according to their own ideas.

For those mages who have mastered the special skill corresponding to the Hercules Shield, that is, the earth-based magic, according to their mastery of this special skill, the effect of the Hercules Shield can be changed to a certain extent, so that the scope of the Hercules Shield is reduced, but the reduction is extremely limited.

What's more, no matter how much the mage narrows the range of the Hercules Shield, the mana required to release this spell will not be reduced in any way compared to casting a full Hercules Shield.

It was precisely this that dispelled the mage's original thoughts. It is not possible to reduce the mana of casting the Hercules Aegis through its own changes, which also causes the mage to be unable to move forward due to the lack of mana before he can take two steps in the air through this method.

This way of giving mages the freedom to walk in the air was a unique idea, but in practice, it didn't help the mages in any way, and eventually had to be abandoned by the player.

Rod has a deep impression of this method, naturally because, in the game of his previous life, when Rod heard about this method, he also tried many times, but because the problem of mana could not be solved, Rod gradually forgot this method.

According to Rod's recollections, this method will spread among mages, and the main reason is that many players have witnessed this special method being performed by a high-level mage in the game.

When Rhodes tried it himself and confirmed that it was not feasible, he did not pay attention to the information related to this method, and did not know the identity of the mage who the rest of the players said had successfully performed this particular method.

It wasn't until this time that Rod saw with his own eyes the method used by the mage who walked out of the high platform, and he realized that this special way of casting spells was really feasible.

Looking at the mage in front of him, Rhodes also guessed about his identity.

When a mage enters the seventh order, he will gain some extremely powerful abilities. For the spell to be cast, the mage can get it out of the original situation and make drastic changes to the spell in the way he wants.

This is only reflected in mages who have exceeded the seventh order, and as the mage rank continues to rise, after entering the middle of the seventh order, this ability will be more significant.

When any creature reaches the seventh order, it will change in nature, which will be very different from the creatures below the seventh order. For mages, this difference is reflected in the changes made to spells.

The ability of high-level mages to change themselves at will to cast spells seems to be already an ability of theirs, and it has nothing to do with the special skills they have, but it is also very related to it. It was the large number of special skills that the mage had originally accumulated that caused the mage to produce such a qualitative change after reaching the seventh order.

At this time, Eli, who was walking towards Rhodes, used this special ability. Many observant mages were able to vaguely notice the stairs that appeared as Eli's footsteps fell.

Whenever Eli's footsteps fell, a condensed Hercules shield appeared at his feet, supporting his body. And when he lifted his footsteps, the original Hercules shield dissipated directly, and the magic elements released did not even spill into the surrounding space, and returned directly to Eli's body.

Eli's ability to manipulate forming spells is the reason why the surrounding mages can't detect any mana fluctuations.

In this whole process, Eli himself seemed extremely relaxed, and he didn't see any burden at all, obviously, even if he cast this changed Hercules shield one after another, Eli's mana value was almost not lost.

The Hercules shield that Eli wielded, altered by his own consciousness, was a method that could not be recorded in any magic book. This kind of change to spells can only be carried out by the most top-notch mages.

There is no doubt that Eli relied on his own way to deter these mages who belonged to the academy on the airship, not by his own identity. Even some of the high-ranking mages in the academy, after noticing the method used by Eli, would wonder in their hearts whether they could do it.

In the bewildered or shocked eyes of the mages around him, Eli's figure gradually declined as he walked, and finally came to the edge of the airship, outside the platform where the players were standing.

Looking at the pale red barrier that enveloped the entire platform, Eli couldn't help but frown.

Obviously, even Eli, who is at the seventh order, will also be affected by the Demon Forbidden Ritual and will not be able to cast any spells during the Demon Forbidden Ceremony.

For this, Eli, who has a strong ability to cast spells, naturally has a resistance to the demon forbidden ritual, but he still reacted immediately, raised his originally empty hand, and in the next moment, a talisman flashing with golden light appeared in his hand.

When this talisman was taken out of the spatial ring by Eli and held in his hand, an extremely large mana fluctuation was generated on the entire airship.

Originally, all the magic elements that existed around the airship quickly converged in the direction of this talisman at this time, and the mana fluctuations generated were naturally extremely huge. Even on the high platform where the elemental creatures were located, the extremely rich magical elements that had been gathered began to transfer in large numbers under the traction of this talisman.
