Chapter 27 Promotion Examination (II)
"Boom-" The ice arrow, which was bland in the eyes of countless formal mages, was shot out accurately.
The magic didn't crumble, and it didn't have earth-shattering power.
Just shoot at Medivan.
If on the battlefield, the mages in the mage group shoot such an ice arrow, they will get at least a qualified evaluation.
You may not be able to shoot a heavily armed soldier, but you may be able to kill at least an unarmed peasant soldier.
That's all there is to it.
If it was shot by a mage from a mage group, no one would feel anything, but when it came to Duke's excessively young face, Duke's performance immediately set off a storm in the hearts of the mages.
Hell, how old is this kid?
Two standard and flawless level 1 spells. Even if it seems ordinary, and then think of Duke's performance in the trial space, the mages can't be calm at all.
Extrapolate the magic formulas contained in magic items in reverse, which is at least a skill that can only be mastered by an expert-level enchanter.
What a terrifying genius!
Thinking back to the fact that they had besieged this supernatural genius who would definitely be protected by Medivan just now, these arrogant mages felt a sense of remorse for slapping the horse's leg on the horse's leg.
Anyone could tell that Duke had almost run out of mana.
Casting a third spell was too much for his apprentice-level body. At this point, no one can doubt that Duke can perform a third spell.
The only difference is in time.
At this moment, Duke suddenly raised his hand, and his fingers, which seemed a little weak, began to make meaningless gestures in the void. With the stroke of the finger, everyone can clearly see that the blue streamer symbolizing the arcane brilliance is condensed where the index finger is crossed.
[Wisdom Enhancement]!?
An old mage let out a chuckle, and secretly said in his heart: Sure enough, a rookie is a rookie.
One of the most standard pre-spells before a mage casts a spell is [Wisdom Enhancement], which temporarily enhances one's intelligence, which can not only increase the upper limit of mana, but also slightly increase the power of magic.
No one was going to remind Duke or laugh at him, for them, what Duke was doing at the moment was what a rookie should be. It was because of this ordinary mistake in this perfect performance that they suddenly felt less uncomfortable in their hearts.
No matter how talented he is, Duke is still a mortal!
Over there, anyone could tell that Duke wasn't doing well.
On the sidelines, Old Man Norton finally couldn't help but pinch his nose and remind: "Don't be reckless, rest quickly, otherwise it may damage your magic circuit." ”
The magic circuit is where the human body stores mana. A well-trained apprentice or mage can constantly meditate to safely and steadily broaden his magic circuit, so that his body can hold more mana and perform stronger magic.
Magic circuits are not set in stone. At some point, it will be damaged by various accidents, or more and wider circuits will be opened under the strong impact.
Now, Duke was clearly squeezing his potential, forcing himself to cast a third level 1 spell at once.
Medivan, under the control of Sargeras's will, showed the demeanor of a superior and a wise senior very well: "Young man Duke, I strongly do not advise you to continue immediately, you ...... All right...... Maybe we'll all see a miracle. ”
His eyes were so vicious, and he immediately saw what Duke wanted to do.
Using the [Flame Explosion Technique] and [Ice Arrow] to squeeze out his mana first was simply Duke's intention.
It was almost like being drawn by a needle the thickness of a stick, and Duke felt that the energy in his body was decreasing as if it were a flood. Even so, the limit is not reached.
If unconscious, the system sprite will take over control of the spell. If it really hangs up, and there is a resurrection, Duke will also let it go and try his best to complete the last spell.
This was undoubtedly a great death for a true mage apprentice, but for Duke, it was only a relatively safe shock. He just wants to complete this sublimation in front of everyone, and if he can even do this, then more miracles he will create in the future will be recognized as 'normal', reducing the risk of exposure to this special existence of the system.
At the beginning, the mysterious arcane runes roared through the sea of Duke spirits one by one.
Soon, Duke deliberately slowed it down under the command system, and Duke began to carefully compare the effects of the ghostly runes.
It's hard to describe in detail how the Wisdom Enhancement works. If you have to use an apt metaphor, it's props. For example, with a grappling hook, a person can climb a cliff that cannot be climbed by human hands.
[Wisdom Enhancement] can add an additional spell circuit to the mage's body. However, Duke is using the complete magic circuit brought by the wisdom enhancement technique, constantly comparing the places in his body that may become magic circuits, and using the power of magic to transform his body.
Under normal circumstances, according to Azeroth's general theory of magic, this should be the use of better meditation principles, long-term communication with the elemental realm, and the use of arcane energy to immerse the body little by little, and transform the body, in order to open up new magic circuits.
Now, what Duke is doing is making a very risky leap.
Consciousness was getting blurred, and when exactly he would lose consciousness, Duke didn't know. But as the last drop of mana in his body was swept away, he felt his spiritual world touch a membrane.
On the other side of that membrane, there is a small but endless spiritual power, which is also his own strength, even if it is separated by a membrane, he can vaguely feel it.
Suddenly, the membrane was broken by Duke!
"Detected that the host's mana cap is increasing. ”
Ignoring the prompts of the system elves, Duke focused all his attention on the breakthrough. He absolutely refused to let go of that incomparably wonderful experience, as if something that didn't seem to belong to him burst out in his body.
Obviously, there should only be blood and various bodily fluids flowing in the body, and it is obvious that this is the third thing-the magic power created by the magic circuit through the absorption of external energy in the true sense, not the simple mana transformed by one's own life energy.
Even if this magic is very faint, like a light mist rushing towards his face, this power is like a traveler who has been thirsty in the desert for many days, and even the thinnest mist can nourish his body and mind, and become the motivation for him to continue to move forward.
Level 1 [Wisdom Enhancement] completed!
However, what was more valued by all mages was the faint arcane glow on Duke's body.
This is the mark of a full-fledged mage!
