Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
With his spell recognition skills, Gordon could easily see that the orange-red energy gathered in Darren's hand was a three-ring energy school spell, the Flame Arrow. For every four caster levels, this spell can release an additional magic rocket with tracking ability, which can be said to be a flame-enhanced version of the magic missile. Among the three-ring plastic spells, they are the same as the fireball spells, which are long in area kill, and they are popular practical spells.
Unbeknownst to Darren, however, Gordon was wearing a salamander cloak and was not afraid of his spell attacks.
At this tense moment, a majestic and cold voice suddenly sounded: "What are you doing here?" Want to engage in spell battles in Rainbow Springs Manor? ”
Darren trembled, and immediately canceled the spell, and the whole person's expression was like a goblin seeing a dragon.
Gordon looked in the direction of the voice, and now walked over an old mage with a blue face.
"Master Yolandeth." Darren respectfully performed a marial salute to the comer.
Gordon just nodded, "Hello, Mr. Yoland." ”
Yolander is the mage of the Scepter Lord mage group, and the head of the group, and he is in a high position, but Gordon is not under his jurisdiction. Besides, because he robbed his nephew of the magical assistant seat, the relationship between the two was very cold. After a week at Rainbow Springs Manor, Gordon and Yolande met a few times, mostly with superficial greetings.
"Don't let me see what happened again. If you really have any conflicts to solve, you can go to the dueling arena. ”
As a mage of the Arcane Federation, Yoland's style is very large, and Darren can't raise his head in front of him at all, but he trembles and responds: "Yes, Master Xi." ”
Reprimanding his subordinates, Yolande looked at Gordon again: "Baron Freeman, I hope you will pay attention to your behavior in the future." You are a young man that Rob is optimistic about, and the future is immeasurable, don't let him down. ”
"As you wish."
The one-touch battle was stopped. Yoland left with Darren, but the latter glanced back from time to time, and his eyes were full of undisguised resentment.
This little episode didn't make a difference to Gordon. He went back to the small building where he lived, and it was dinner time.
The servant of the water yuan had already prepared a sumptuous dinner. Gordon sniffed the salt-baked oysters and garlic sausages at the table, and his index finger moved.
However, he had a long mind, and first cast a poison detection spell on each dish and wine to make sure that it was not cooked by ill-intentioned people, and then began to eat with confidence.
Ever since he knew that the Scepter Lord's Shui Yuan ** servants might be secretly manipulated, he had been extra careful.
After dinner, Gordon returned to his study and took out the scroll written by Urlo, the Grand Arcanist of Netsduran, from his dimensional bag. After a long period of research and study, only a small part of the end of the last one remained in the thirteen scrolls, and I did not finish reading them.
Tonight, he was able to finish reading the scroll.
Illuminated by the soft milky white light of magic, Gordon wandered through the wonderful and esoteric magical world written by the Grand Arcanist of Olo, and before he knew it, two hours had passed.
When he had finished reading the last text of the last parchment, and then carefully rolled it up and tied it, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Urlo's Sheepskin Scroll finished reading. Gain Arcane Knowledge 1o, Spell Identification 1o, Cast Focus 1o, Use Magic Items 1o, Realm Knowledge 2o, Nature Knowledge 5, XP +6ooo. Acquired Specialty: Nether Meditation. Note that this feat, which replaces the Arcane specialty, 'Light Meditation'. ”
Seeing a large section of experience skyrocketing in the experience pool, Gordon was both happy and a little helpless. Now he has enough experience points to be able to reach level six, but he can't level up due to character template limitations.
It seems that you should go to the Cold Mist Mountains early and complete the quest "Inheritance of Alavi Rising Sun" in the Danze Ruins. Next week's autumn hunt is an opportunity. When the time comes, Lord Wandlord will definitely give him a vacation. Moreover, with the noble brigade entering the Cold Mist Mountains, it is also more convenient and can save a lot of trouble.
Having made up his mind, Gordon took off his shoes, lay down on the bed, struck the most comfortable position, and closed his eyes.
"System, enter a meditative state." He said silently.
In Ancient Age, meditation is just a convenient way to provide players with experience and mana. When the player is meditating, it goes offline as soon as it goes dark in front of him. At this point, players can go offline to do other things, and when the meditation time is over, they will be able to earn experience points and extra mana points from meditation.
After crossing into the world of Telos, Gordon had a true understanding of meditation.
The so-called meditation is actually the process of using spiritual power to communicate with the magic web, and deeply understand the core of the arcane and the nature of the source energy. Meditation is a very mentally draining process, and at the end of the meditation, the caster will generally feel that the whole person's mental power is like a wall of sand wet by the sea, completely crumbling and dispersing. The feeling of being very tired but unable to concentrate is like staying up for three nights and not being able to sleep because of insomnia, which is very uncomfortable.
The exchange of mental power for in-depth knowledge and close connection to the magic web follows the principle of equivalence, and it is impossible to see what is described in some novels, where meditation can both improve magic and replace sleep and give one a good rest. It's as nonsense as a perpetual motion machine.
To enter the meditative state, the caster needs to have strong mental power and an extremely keen perception of the magic net and source energy. In order to improve the effect of meditation, or to quickly enter a meditative state, many mages will buy incense with the effect of sharpening mental power to assist in meditation.
But Gordon didn't have to go to such trouble. With the assistance of the system, it is easier for him to enter a meditative state than to fall asleep.
In the endless darkness, Gordon appeared in front of his eyes with dots of pale golden light, they were connected by faint silk threads with each other, and the energy fluctuations they scattered were very small.
This is the periphery of the magic web. If you sense this level, you will be able to cast the Zero Ring Trick and step up to the first step of the Arcane Temple.
Gordon's consciousness manipulated the mental power to move on. Soon, a world of vast golden grids appeared in front of them. Each of these grids of golden threads seems to be imbued with infinite arcane knowledge and wondrous energy.
This is the first layer of the magic web. When the spiritual power touches here, there is a qualification to learn the one-ring spell.
Continuing to go deeper, his spiritual power passed through the second and third layers of the magic net, and those golden energy threads that were thicker and longer than the first layer of the magic net formed a more complex network.
Then, an invisible force stood in his way, making it impossible for him to explore the deeper structure of the demonic web. Gordon knew that he had reached the seventh level before he was able to break through this barrier and touch the fourth layer of the magic net.
Gordon's mind turned, and according to the method recorded on the Oro sheepskin scroll, his spiritual power spread out like water, penetrating into it pervasively.
The door to another world opens for him.
The golden web of magic gradually dissipated and dissociated. What appeared in front of Gordon was a myriad of disjointed, disordered, colorful, large and small points of light. They are constantly working in Brownian motion, coloring the dark background.
Gordon remembered himself on earth, on that cool summer night, on a quiet mountain top, looking up at the sky. The Milky Way made up of countless stars is so brilliant and magnificent that he will never forget it.
The scene in front of you is like a galaxy of energy with richer colors and active astral movements.
Gordon knew that what he was seeing now was the world of source energy. And the whole composed of various source energies is the source sea.
The special meditation method handed down from the Ancient Neser Empire allowed him to cross the magic net and communicate directly with the source energy. This would be of great benefit to his understanding of the nature of magic.
Gordon's will surged, gathering his spiritual power, and then turning into dozens of pure energy tentacles, gently touching those light clusters.
Searing, cold, deep, jumping, manic, mild...... Each light cluster contains a quality, and Gordon concentrates his attention, like a sponge, sucking in, feeling, analyzing, and understanding......
I don't know how long later, when Gordon opened his eyes again in bed, the lights of Rob Antelo's mansion outside the window had already been extinguished, and it was pitch black, presumably the Lord of Wands and his wives were already asleep.
"The meditation ends. You gain 5o experience points. Your mana has been replenished. Perform another 1o meditations and your mana cap will increase by 1 point. ”
Gordon rubbed his temples and read the system prompts.
In addition to these benefits that he could intuitively experience from counting, he felt that his understanding of arcane arts had gone one step further. However, the feeling of mental exhaustion after the meditation is really uncomfortable.
After washing up and extinguishing the magic lamp, he fell asleep.
The next morning, Gordon got up, and after breakfast, decided to go to Archduke Robb's private library. Although his current task was to investigate whether Darren Hildotd VIII had anything to do with the Shui Yuan ** Servant incident, he felt that it would be better for him to learn a few three-ring spells first. After all, Darren is also a three-ring mage, and if he wants to make a move, he will have an advantage if he can master the spells of a higher ring.
Gordon made his way to the second floor, walked into the private library, and then drove to the floor-to-ceiling mirror at the very end of the room. He took out the emerald key, held it flat in front of the mirror, and read Rob Antelo's message to him: "Knowledge is the balance of reason, sensibility, discernment, and beauty." ”
Like a green high beam, the jade key suddenly radiated a straight light and shone on the mirror. The mirror swings open like a ripple of water, revealing a passage behind it.
