Chapter 2: When the apprentice meets the soldier, the reason is unclear (Part 1)
[I wish you all a happy new year. It’s the first day. It’s worth remembering. This book will be written hard and I will ask for votes in the chapter for the first time]
In the next ten days, Salin kept repeating this magic, but never could be completed. No matter how perfect his spells and gestures were, he could not complete this simple level 0 magic.
During this period, Jason Magician only appeared once, and the rest of the time was in the laboratory where the large living room was renovated. He seemed to be doing magic experiments in the room without having to eat.
Salin was a little anxious, but it was useless to be anxious about learning magic, so he could only practice again and again. Finally, in the third ten days, Salin learned this magic.
He came to Jason's magic lab excitedly. Jason saw Salin's excited look and sighed: "You have learned a level 0 magic in 30 days, and your qualifications can be said to be very poor. I suggest you don't continue, otherwise you may only be an apprentice in your life."
Salin was stunned: "Teacher..."
"Don't give up, are you? Come and do an experiment." Jason took out a crystal ball, placed it on the table, and said, "Complete magic for this."
Salin quickly used a reading technique as he spoke, and the transparent crystal ball had almost no changes.
Jason put away the crystal ball and said, "It's worse than I thought. You have strong mental power, but your elemental affinity is too poor. According to the test results, you may only have the chance to advance to a first-level magician until you are 100 years old. Salin, if you want, I'll give you some money to go to Skochenya City and find a swordsman. At your age, you may have a way out."
Salin seemed to be watered with cold water. If he hadn't had this opportunity, he might have accepted Jason's advice. However, thirty days of practice made him obsessed with magic. When the first level 0 magic was completed in his hand, the pleasure of controlling everything could no longer be eliminated from his bones.
Become a swordsman? Like the guards in Ceylon City, you walk around the streets every day, block the city gates to collect taxes, or work as a mercenary, and you can't get married even in your thirties?
"Teacher, is there no way?" Salin asked in his heart.
"No, but I can't afford the price. This is not a problem that gold coins can solve. Unless there is a level nine magician who is willing to help you and transform your physique. Even so, your future achievements will be at most a low-level magician, and you will not reach level four." Jason answered helplessly.
"Teacher, I still want to try it. I would rather be a 100-year-old apprentice than be a swordsman. Please teach me the rules of meditation." Salin gritted his teeth. He had a very bad impression of the swordsman. The swordsman in Ceylon City was not decent, and he took Jason's gold coins to study. Who knows what would happen? He was cheated many times since childhood, and Salin was a little disappointed with this world.
"If you stick with it, okay, but after learning my meditation rules, you can't leave unless you become a formal magician."
“I’m willing to continue.”
"My meditation rules are very precious even in the Qinyin Empire. If you reveal them to others, I will take your life away. Can you understand?" Jason said calmly, and Salin felt a chill in his heart. He knew that the teacher was definitely not talking casually, if he violated this requirement...
"Where did you start?" Jason muttered to himself. He was a little overwhelmed with the first time he accepted students. When the teacher taught his meditation rules, he was already a Level 2 apprentice and had a lot of basic knowledge. Salin obviously didn't know anything.
"The meditation rules actually include meditation, elemental absorption, hypnosis and spiritual resonance. Ordinary magicians can only learn meditation, and the complete set of meditation rules can only be learned from the great magician. The books introduce only individual meditation techniques. By self-study, you will never become a great magician..."
Jason never tires about giving Salin a lesson from scratch and then imparting the same teachings. Salin only took half an hour to completely remember Jason's words. Jason also lamented Salin's intelligence and felt sad for him. Such a smart child has an extremely low elemental affinity.
"Okay, I'll tell you all the contents of the meditation rules. You're very smart. Just read the books upstairs in order. Meditation at least once a day may be good for you. Remember to cook for me once a week, and if the bread is gone, go to the city to buy it. I'll leave you a gold coin. After you fully master the meditation rules, I'll have a job to hand over to you."
"Yes, teacher." Salin lowered his head and exited the room. He was still young and did not understand that he had chosen an extremely difficult road. He was only excited in his heart, as if the door of another world had been opened to him. He didn't know how much it would cost to enter this door.
Salin went directly to the first room where books were placed and started learning. The first bookshelf was linguistics. Salin didn't even know a few words, so he could only do it step by step. Reading magic is magic, which allows him to learn words by himself. The only trouble is that he had to rest for half an hour before he could perform the second time using reading magic.
In this way, Salin finally learned the common language of the mainland, which is the language he speaks now. He wanted to look at the books behind in advance, but found that the content of the magic books in the room was very large, and not all were written in common languages. There were at least twenty languages in the books on the bookshelf. Salin had to finish all the books on the first bookshelf before he could read them down.
Magicians are all knowledgeable people. Without reading magic, they cannot complete magic learning at all.
Fortunately, in one month, Salin finally mastered the meditation rules. Now he can perform reading magic twice in a row, and then he can fully recover in ten minutes.
The magical apprentice's body had very few magic elements stored, and Salin was even less than that of ordinary apprentices. Despite this, he was already very satisfied. Four huge rooms, dozens of large bookshelf and tens of thousands of books in each room, were enough for him to read.
He is no longer anxious to advance, and he is eager to learn more knowledge. Salin patiently studied in order, and there were more than a thousand books on linguistics, including common languages, Meers, Magic, Qinyin, Skochenya, Tanggulas... Salin even learned Caucasians. The Caucasians had never produced a magician. The Caucasians were still very priests, but Salin was already crazy about learning languages. He spent half a year mastering the language introduced in more than a thousand books.
It was very slow at the beginning. As he recognized more and more words, his learning speed became faster and faster.
When he finished reading the last book, he was able to perform reading techniques three times in a row, which means he had become a level 2 magic apprentice. Salin didn't know that this was because his mental power was very strong and the loss was too small when controlling magic. Since he only cast level 0 magic, such loss was pitifully small. In fact, the magic elements stored in his body were still only at level 1 apprenticeship.
Such speed cannot be said to be the last, but it is definitely unprecedented. If ordinary people had the speed of cultivation, they would have been kicked out of the door long ago. Salin has the best meditation method. It took half a year to almost improve the storage ability of magic elements in the body. Jason did not perfunctorily. Salin is really not suitable for learning magic.
The following content is magic common sense, which is still a bookshelf and more than a thousand books. The mysterious veil of the magic world has been unveiled. Salin didn't know how much he could learn, but he believed that hard work will always pay off.
The origin of magic is unknown. It is generally believed that magic on the Meers continent has a history of at least 30,000 years. It was not until the Second Dynasty was perfected more than 10,000 years ago, and it was divided into six major systems: earth, water, wind, fire, light and dark. Since then, the calendar of the Meers continent has been perfected. A year is divided into 12 months, 30 days per month, and 6 days is a week. The sixth day of the week is a dark day, which is a rest day for various industries. Even if the goddess Meers (the goddess of nature) falls and the rise of the Holy Holy Church, this habit has not been changed.
The calendar of the Holy Holy Church is too troublesome. The Holy Church believes that a week should be seven days. After a hundred years of implementation, the entire continent still only uses the new calendar within the Holy Church, and it is finally left alone.
Before an apprentice becomes a first-level magician, it is not possible to cast level 0 magic. After advancing to a level 6 apprentice, the magic apprentice can actually learn a level 1 magic and complete this magic. This is the higher-level casting in the magic formula. There is only one chance to cast the higher-level casting, and the magician can cast the higher-level casting. This is not surprising.
However, after the magician casts a spell above the level, he will fall into weakness and be almost unable to recover himself. He can only rely on meditation to restore the consumed magic strings.
Magic strings are the cornerstone of magic. Without Magic strings, magic apprentices can never be promoted to a formal magician. To form magic strings, you must have strong mental power and elemental affinity. Salin's elemental affinity is very low, so Jason said that if he wants to become a magician, he may have to wait until he is a hundred years old.
According to Salin's progress rate, this is not an exaggeration.
There are detailed descriptions of what magic strings are in various books, but they cannot be unified. What Salin can understand is that magic strings exist in the body of the magician, providing the basic elemental power for the magician to cast magic. The magic apprentice allows magic elements to accumulate in the body through continuous training, and ultimately reaches qualitative change. This process is the process of forming magic strings, that is, from apprentice to formal magicians.
What made Salin discouraged was that he had never seen a book mention using another method to form magic strings. If he relied on accumulation, he really had no hope of becoming a magician.
In half a year, all the things stored in the kitchen were eaten up. Salin knew that he should go to the city to purchase. He came to Jason's lab and told Jason that he was going to enter the city.
"How are you studying?"
"I can already complete three reading techniques in a row." Salin said the word "three" very seriously, hoping to attract the teacher's attention.
