Meet the principal

night.

The afterglow of summer has not yet dissipated. After nightfall, Crescent College still carries a bit of heat. It will take at least another week before the breath of autumn will completely take over the entire continent and cause the temperature to drop.

Reiner opened the window and saw Fina feeding the kitten downstairs. The two were enjoying themselves. Reiner smiled and said nothing.

He sat back in his chair and looked at the parchment on the table.

Above this is a spell model.

Even if you look through any magic book in the entire continent, you will not find a spell model exactly like the one depicted on this parchment. Its complexity has far exceeded that of ordinary low-level spells, and is enough to meet the standards of the third ring.

After studying several four-ring magic circles, Reiner discovered a wonderful thing.

That is the so-called mid-level magic, and its spell model is just three-dimensional.

No matter how complicated low-level magic is, all the spell nodes and magic channels are on the same plane, and can be included with just two coordinate axes. Even for three-ring magic, the spell nodes and magic channels are constantly changing. No exception.

When it comes to the fourth-level spells, an additional coordinate axis is immediately added to the plane, becoming a three-dimensional spell model. However, the spell nodes and magic channels of the fourth-level spells are also fixed, as long as they can be understood correctly. Geometric relationships in three-dimensional space, then the four-ring spell is actually even simpler than the three-ring spell.

Being able to engrave the four-ring spell in the heart lake gives you the capital to advance to the intermediate level, but for mages, how can the breakthrough from plane to three-dimensional be so simple? Although it seems that there is only one more coordinate axis, it is The calculation changes brought about are far from simple.

With this understanding, Reiner breathed a sigh of relief.

With his calculation ability, it is not easy to deal with the fourth-level spell. If the fourth-level spell requires other aspects, then Reiner may be a little worried, but he did not expect that the fourth-level spell actually tests the space of the mages. Computing ability, this is what Reiner is best at.

However, before he can inscribe the fourth-ring spell, he still needs to incorporate the third-ring spell in front of him into his heart.

This is a spell he designed based on his own situation. It has extremely special properties. Although its attack method cannot be said to be unprecedented, at least there is nothing similar in the history of magic.

Reiner checked the parameters of the spell model again before closing his eyes.

About fifteen minutes later,

He had just returned to reality from the world of the heart lake. When he opened his eyes again, Reiner knew that this three-ring spell had been engraved in his heart lake.

To be honest, he doesn't want to use this spell at will. On the one hand, it is one of his means of saving life and cannot be shown to others easily. On the other hand, this spell is very destructive. Unless the enemy clearly threatens him, Reiner will still Leave room.

After inscribing the third-level spell, Reiner is actually qualified as a third-level mage, and as long as he is stable for a period of time, he can immediately hit the fourth level.

In just six months, he was promoted from a mage apprentice to an intermediate mage. I am afraid that not many people would believe him.

But Reiner's situation is extremely special. He has discovered major breakthroughs one after another, and the feedback he has received from the world is top-notch in both quantity and quality. The magic reserves brought by these feedbacks are abundant, enough for Reiner to break through to high levels. Rather, he It took half a year to advance to the fourth ring. In the eyes of some high-level mages, it was too slow.

The improvement of magic power does not simply rely on the improvement of feedback from the world, but more on the familiarity with magic, the control and use of magic, which requires a certain amount of time to accumulate, and the faster you advance, the better.

Feedback from the world can greatly speed up this process, but it cannot make an apprentice advance to a high level overnight.

Except for Reiner, in the history of modern magic, only His Excellency Isaris Ebdon's promotion speed greatly exceeded the norm. It took him five years to advance from a first-level mage to a high-level mage, and from a high-level mage to a legend. This step of the mage took another five years.

This promotion speed is unique even in the entire history of magic, not to mention the era in which Alberton lived. Many theories have been proposed, and new sources of feedback from the world have not yet been found. And he, from movement and force Set off and suddenly opened up a new field.

But even a legend like Ebdon can't advance to the mid-level as fast as Reiner.

Even if we do not consider the possible feedback from the world that Reiner's research will receive in the future, his current accumulation is enough for Reiner to surpass Alberton's promotion speed. According to the current speed, Reiner will be able to try to cross the intermediate level and step forward in at most three years. The threshold for high-level mage.

A large part of the reason why Reiner was so eager to improve his strength was that he decided to join Erasmus' magical expedition team.

He made this decision after some consideration.

First of all, Reiner himself is very curious about demiplanes. He has never been to any demiplane. Naturally, he is yearning for this unique environment and wants to experience it on the spot. However, most demiplanes have certain limitations. Danger, even if it is marked as safe, there is still the possibility of encountering unexpected situations. Nowadays, there are so many mid-level mages teaming up, which is enough to reduce the possibility of accidents to the minimum.

Secondly, Erasmus has unique and rich animal and plant resources, which will be of certain help to Reiner's research. Just like when he went to North before, Reiner is also prepared to collect some special magical creatures for cultivation if he has the opportunity. .

Finally, Reiner was also a little curious about Potsdam Baptiste.

As he noted, Potsdam-Baptiste's father was the man who wrote Where Are the Magical Creatures? 》Scudder Baptiste.

Scudder Baptiste spent his whole life trying to figure out the laws of species evolution, but failed, leaving only a legacy of ecological surveys of various demiplanes. It seems that his son Potsdam is exactly Inheriting his father's legacy, he gave a new interpretation to the evolution of species.

Use-it-or-lose-it is a product of the times on earth. It is an incomplete theory of evolution because it overemphasizes the role of subjective initiative. But this is a world of magic. Philosophically speaking, magic is the product of idealism. Although many materialist theories are still common in the world that Reiner is currently exposed to, he does not dare to draw conclusions without authorization and needs to be carefully investigated.

In the next period of time, there will be nothing that Reiner needs to focus on at school. He can do some things of his own. Joining the magic expedition team seems to be a good choice.

As for what the letter said, he could bring a student with him. Reiner did not intend to waste this opportunity. He already had a candidate in mind.
