my age of magic

Chapter 254 54. Magic Vortex
Instructor Heidi put down the magic book in her hand, and slowly sat up from the soft couch. Her long hair lying flat between her shoulders and the floppy fell down like a waterfall, and her pair of eyes that were originally without the slightest expression suddenly became With a little vitality, she looked at the flame calmly, the white flame heart was reflected in her pupils and kept jumping, she slowly stretched out a finger, and made the same movement as me, the next moment, The same magic pattern circle was engraved in the air, and the pure fire magic power filled every line. When her finger landed on the end of the magic circle, the whole magic circle did not behave as we expected. Burned in the air, but split into countless mana residues, dissipated in the air.

"Huh~" She looked surprised, and looked at her slender hands repeatedly, trying to find out the reason for the failure.

She looked up at me and asked, "How did you do that?"

I carefully explained the method of performing the fire gathering technique to Instructor Heidi, and kept demonstrating it with both hands. The comprehensiveness of knowledge is definitely the best among magicians of the same level.She doesn't even need me to demonstrate it a second time, she already has a thorough understanding of the correct use of this magic pattern circle.

She began to keep asking questions that I couldn't think of. She was looking at this extremely simple universal magic from several other angles, but the first question she asked was: "Your magic pool is now showing a kind of whirlpool. Are you constantly absorbing the magical elements around you every moment and transforming them into magical power?"

Although I don't know why she asked such a question, she seems to know the state of the magic pool in my body very well, and she directly said that my magic pool is indeed in such a state now, and I have been feeling the magic pool in the past few days. There is a feeling of fullness, the entire magic pool is like a balloon full of air in my lower abdomen, and the speed of the magic vortex in the magic pool is constantly slowing down.

I nodded and said to her: "This is also one of the reasons why I came to you. In the past few days, I have read a lot of magic books and materials in the library, only to find that I am different from others. The magic pool mentioned in the magic book is such a vortex that keeps spinning."

I did not hide anything, and directly expressed my conjecture: "I think maybe it is because of this, that my magic pool is different from other magic apprentices, so I can have the opportunity to discover how to come to the magic pool at a certain moment. Use these general magic skills!"

Instructor Heidi sat up straight. At this time, her proud figure was displayed, so I couldn't help but try to turn my eyes away, otherwise if I stayed at a certain point for a while, I was afraid that my eyes would show that obsessive look, then would make me feel very ashamed.

Teacher Heidi completely ignored my feelings, she looked straight into my eyes and asked: "Since you have peeked into the ways of general magic, what questions do you want to ask me? What I know may not be able to help you." You, you are ahead of me in general magic."

She paused, thought for a while and said: "As for the magic vortex in your body, I can tell you this. You are not the first magic apprentice who has a magic vortex after awakening the magic pool. In the history of the Grimm Empire, It is recorded in the book that there are at least ten magic apprentices, all of whom experienced such an abnormal situation after awakening the magic pool, this is a mixed blessing for you."

It turns out that I'm not the first one in this situation, and my heart is a little more at ease, but when Teacher Heidi said it was mixed, I knew it was not that simple, at least for me, it was definitely a problem.Otherwise, Teacher Heidi would not have said so.

I continued to listen to her explain: "There is no other factor that can make the magic vortex appear in the calm magic pool. It is just because your mental power is very strong. Everyone has the five most important basic attributes. , strength, agility, physique, wisdom, and spirit. For warriors, strength, agility, and physique are what they pursue throughout their lives. For magicians, wisdom and spirit are closely related to magic."

I have already heard these ordinary magic knowledge in the first magic knowledge popularization class, but now it is taught by Teacher Heidi, which makes my experience particularly profound.

She talked about wisdom: "Wisdom is related to the volume of the magic pool and the power of magic skills. That is, the higher the wisdom, the more magic power stored in the magic pool in the body, and the level of wisdom determines the level of magic apprentices before level six. In other words, if you want to reach the level of a second-level magic apprentice, you must first repeatedly increase the mana in your magic pool to a full state, so as to stimulate the growth of wisdom."

Teacher Heidi went on to say: "Spiritual power is related to the magician's own magic resistance, magic recovery ability, casting speed and other factors. The higher the mental power, the higher the magic recovery ability. It is precisely because of this that you The current mental power has reached a critical point, which is enough to support the existence of a magic vortex."

"The magic vortex is a state of storing mana. In fact, the biggest resistance for a ninth-level magic apprentice to enter the ranks of magicians is not that he is not smart enough. The mana stored in the magic pool is not enough to release more. Magic, it's not that his magic affinity is not enough, and he can't learn more advanced magic skills. It's that this magic apprentice can't comprehend this kind of magic vortex."

"This magic vortex is the only way for every magic apprentice to become a magician."

I heard this, and I already know the benefits of the magic vortex, that is, I will not encounter any bottlenecks before I break through the level [-] magician, whether it is learning the first magic skill or improving the affinity of magic elements, These are very easy for me, as expected I was born a magician!I'm a little ecstatic at the moment.

Sure enough, Teacher Heidi said: "This is the most beneficial side for you. As far as I know, the few magicians recorded in the book who awakened the magic pool and had magic vortexes, when the magic apprentice broke through the last level , When you become a magician, there are no bottlenecks or obstacles at all, as long as your wisdom grows strong enough and your magic affinity meets the requirements, you will naturally become a magician."

But when I heard it, I felt something was wrong, so I subconsciously asked: "Then this magic vortex also has disadvantages, right? Teacher Heidi?"

"That's right, its biggest disadvantage is that it keeps accumulating mana for you all the time, which creates the biggest problem, that is, the excess mana will break through the barrier of your magic pool little by little. , once the fragile magic pool you just awakened is broken by those magics, the magic pool cannot be repaired at all." She continued.

When Teacher Heidi was talking, she didn't notice my face. My face was as white as a piece of paper at this time. I had this feeling three days ago.

I finally know that the speed of magic recovery is actually not a good thing!
I asked tremblingly: "You mean, if I don't take the initiative to control the mana absorption speed of the magic vortex, sooner or later I will be filled with excess mana like a balloon, and explode with a bang?"

Teacher Heidi saw the fear in my eyes and instantly understood.

"..."

In fact, I hoped to get some comfort from Teacher Heidi's eyes, but her eyes were as cold as two pieces of ice without any emotion. She nodded seriously, indicating that my guess was correct.

I came to Teacher Heidi to ask for some help, for example, I wanted to ask her if she knew some books about general magic, and I wanted to draw a magic circle of the fire-gathering technique in front of her, at least I have to let him know that a freshman magic apprentice like me has also learned a magic skill.

But I didn't expect to talk about the magic vortex while talking, and then I talked about its terrifying ability to gather magic power, which might burst my fragile magic pool, which is what I'm most worried about.

Teacher Heidi came to my side, and at this moment I realized that at some point, I was sitting on the soft bed next to her, her eyes were fixed on me, at this moment, my brain Her beautiful big eyes emerged from the sky, and these eyes seemed to be in the sky, completely occupying my sight.

After a while, I felt as if I woke up from a dream, and I gasped for breath. At this time, I still had those eyes staring at me in my mind. Teacher Heidi said with some hesitation: "I learned from your My eyes can't see into your heart, your pupils are a boundless golden sea, I can't see you on the other side of the sea!"

"No wonder your mental power is so strong, what exists in your mind is a sea of ​​gold!" Teacher Heidi praised.

At this time, two of the three problems I brought up have been solved. The first one is to hope that Teacher Heidi can give me some knowledge about general magic. However, Teacher Heidi is not good at this aspect. Explaining to me directly is impossible to give me any help.

The second question raised at this time is what is the magic vortex in my body. Teacher Heidi gave me a satisfactory answer, but this answer will not make people so happy, Heidi The teacher told me that I must curb the absorption of magic power of the magic vortex as soon as possible, and in addition, I need to increase some wisdom in the short term.

There are many ways to increase wisdom, the most ideal and the least harmful is to practice "meditation", but this is the last thing I can do.

The last question is why are the rare magical herbs above the second level, orc shamans and human mages describing their characteristics completely different?

"Where did you copy the characters of these tribal orcs, but it seems that you should know the orc language to write these characters so neatly! These contents are not available in the school library..." Teacher Heidi said the first One sentence revealed the secret of my ability to speak the orc language, but obviously she can also read the orc language to a minimum, and she can understand the general meaning.

"You know, I was picked up by my current adoptive parents five years ago. Before that, I had been following an old orc on the Pai Plateau and traveling around with a caravan. I learned from him He also gave me some magic parchments, which were written with these descriptions of herbal medicine. During the journey, when I was idle and panicked, I would take them out and read them carefully. "I explained it like this.

In Teacher Heidi's eyes, this question is actually the simplest. This matter has been debated for a long time between the orc shaman and the human mage.

Both parties admit that the same high-level rare herb has two completely different effects on human mages and orc shamans, so Teacher Heidi told me that when learning about these magic herbs, I must keep in mind the importance of these magic herbs. Those annotations of the human race.

At this time, Teacher Heidi had already shown a trace of tiredness, and I wisely chose to leave.

Before leaving, she told me that there may be other means to control the growth of magic power day and night, and asked me to wait patiently.Finally, she mentioned general magic. She told me that Dean Godfrey of the School of Magic has done some research on general magic. In fact, I should find time to ask the dean. Although he is very busy, After all, she has free time, so she can find time to introduce me to the dean.

After all, I am a magic apprentice holding a key to the Universal Grimoire in my hand. I have the ability to learn some Universal Magic and cast them!Even though Mrs. Heidi already knows the trick of my spellcasting, she can't reverse the barrier of the magic pool in her body, and can't stop the diffusion of the magic elements of the magic pool.So even a simple fire gathering circle cannot be drawn.

By the time I walked out of Teacher Heidi's courtyard, I had almost spent the whole afternoon before I knew it.

The teacher's dormitory area of ​​Zhanzheng College was built on the mountainside, where the trees were shady, and there were attractive clouds like cotton candy floating in the sky.Every small courtyard with blue bricks and red tiles is like a high-end villa. There are not too many small courtyards. I never expected that Teacher Heidi could own such a courtyard.

With my arms behind my head, I slowly walked down the hill along the stone path. The entire magic campus seemed deserted, only some club rooms were still lit, but it was extremely quiet inside.On the other hand, the Warrior Academy was obviously very lively, and there was still a large group of people doing physical training on the playground.

The warrior apprentices in the Warrior Academy insisted on running every morning and evening. They ran wildly on the playground, as if they had endless energy.I thought: Maybe I should join a certain society, so maybe life will be more fulfilling.It would be even better if there is an inscriber society, I should join without hesitation.

Actually, I need an excuse like, in a few days, I'm going to be ready to draw those fire-focus scrolls, because the summer hunting experience is coming up, and the fire-focus scrolls may come in handy in the field.The magic pattern circle of this fire gathering technique is extremely simple, it is very simple to draw, and maybe you can make your first pot of gold soon.
