After returning to the dormitory, Xia Duo immediately took out the [Light Technique] learning scroll. From the outside, it was not much different from a piece of ordinary parchment rolled up.
It was called a scroll, but there was no "shaft", only "volume". Xia Duo carefully unfolded the learning scroll. The feel was slightly different from ordinary parchment. I don't know if it was a psychological feeling or because it contained magic.
different.
After the learning scroll was unfolded, there was no text on it, but a geometric figure with a sense of design, which was sketched on the parchment with extremely fine brushstrokes. Xia Duo turned over it and found no special effect.
Now he cannot enter the spellcasting concentration state, and cannot read this scroll with [Reading Magic] skills. Based on the graphics above, Xia Duo has not even finished the basic course, so he can't see any tricks at all.
I can only wait until I have enough rest before studying again.
At this time, with less than an hour left before "lights out", Shado took out the "Biography of Archmage Darthriel" he bought from Dean and started reading. With the help of his homemade simple dictionary, he began to learn Chinese characters
The progress is not too slow.
When I first started reading this book, I needed to flip through the dictionary almost every time I read a line of text. But now, I don’t have to flip through the dictionary several times to read a page. Xia Duo plans to sell a few copies of the biography of the great mage after reading it.
This is an old notebook, as long as it has text.
Xia Duo does not need to be proficient in Nese characters in a short period of time. As long as he meets the minimum requirements for reading and writing, it is enough. It doesn't hurt to admit mistakes and write mistakes for the time being, and he will gradually become proficient.
Not long after, the dormitory suddenly became dark. Xia Duo used the dim light to put away his desk, wash up and go to bed.
The recovery of the concentration state of spell casting requires rest. Generally speaking, rest here refers to sleep, allowing the entire consciousness to rest. If there is insufficient rest, it may not affect normal activities, but it will affect spell casting.
Although Xia Duo's reading before going to bed just now seems very relaxing, it does not count as rest.
But after lying on the bed, Xia Duo didn't want to sleep at all. He was always thinking about how to learn the "Lighting Technique" by studying the scrolls tomorrow. He was excited but was overdrawing his energy.
After slowly adjusting his breathing and thinking about his goals and plans, Xia Duo gradually calmed down.
…
Early the next morning, Xia Duo woke up before the dormitory got brighter as usual. The first thing he did when he woke up was to jump out of bed and take out the study scroll.
At this moment, Xia Duo, in a focused state, clearly "saw" - a large number of "threads" spread out from this rolled-up, inconspicuous parchment, echoing the surrounding magic network.
Unrolling the scroll, the "strands" that originally looked a little messy became orderly. On the top of the front after the scroll was opened, the structure of the magic network has undergone surprising changes.
The magic net that originally flowed like water seemed to be twisted, entangled, and folded by some force, forming a three-dimensional configuration that was not complex, but was by no means simple.
This is the spell model of [Light Spell] - a blueprint for manipulating the magic network to create the effect of [Light Spell].
And this spell model composed of magic net is combined with the flat graphics on the parchment through the "wisps" of the basic structure of the magic net.
Seeing this scene, Xia Duo no longer needs guidance. What else does he need? All the details are shown without reservation——
How to control the magic network, even how to draw the scroll!
"As expected of a learning scroll!"
Xia Duo admired it fascinatedly, not missing any detail. Fortunately, his reason was still there, so he took out a blank notebook and began to record the spell structure of [Light Technique].
Only some of these structures were demonstrated by Colin in the [Reading Magic] class. Of course, Shado also took notes, but most of them were not demonstrated by Colin. Now the learning scroll is demonstrated to Shado.
Although I don’t know how long the learning scroll is valid, it is certain that it cannot be used indefinitely.
Just using the skill of [Reading Magic] to view the spell structure from a magical perspective without actually manipulating the magic network does not cost much. Xia Duo can persist for quite a while.
However, Xia Duo's recording only lasted until the dormitory became brighter, and was not completely recorded. It was still a little worse, but it only lasted a few hours at most.
He hurriedly washed up, went out, sent clothes to the laundry, got breakfast, and finally took the elevator to the Arcane Garden. Xia Duo completed all the actions at one go without any delay.
Arcane Garden is harvesting wheat today, and the workload is not low, because it needs to be harvested and preliminary threshed within one day. Xia Duo experienced this battle a week ago.
At that time, Xia Duo felt a little sorry when he saw how busy the others were, but he had just joined the Mage Tower, and now he could very calmly watch the apprentices who had arrived early start working.
Because he already knows how valuable the opportunity to ask questions is, and who would be willing to give it up if possible?
After a calm glance, Xia Duo went to find his apple tree. He had fallen in love with the apple tree now, which made him feel like he was possessed by Newton. Even his IQ seemed to have improved a lot.
This is called the active role of consciousness.
…
The Arcane Garden has strong light and a hot climate, but Xia Duo gradually got used to it. When he got under the apple tree, he directly untied his robe, laid it on the ground, took out the learning scroll, and quickly started recording.
In the entire process of spell learning, recording only takes up a very small part of the time, especially when there is a learning scroll, and subsequent practice is the highlight.
As for understanding the principles and rules, let alone it. This is the real magic principle that goes beyond a specific spell. To describe it in pre-travel terms, one is application and the other is theory.
The difference is that the application can gain power immediately and directly, while the effect of theory is not so obvious.
Xia Duo is very clear about the importance of theory guiding practice, but he also understands the importance of slowing things down.
Throughout the morning, Xia Duo recorded the spell structure of [Light Spell] and began to memorize it. Last night in the spell laboratory, he still remembered the scene when Dean performed [Light Spell]. Dean did not flip through the book or anything.
, the spell is cast entirely from memory.
There's no reason why Dean can't do anything he can do.
Perhaps more responsible spells in the future will require various means to assist in memory and execution, but this is the simplest level 0 spell, and Xia Duo has full confidence in remembering it completely.
While memorizing, Xia Duo also tried to analyze the rules between these spell structures, but found nothing. He quickly gave up and planned to make up for it later, whether it was taking special theoretical classes or making money.
Now it is better to learn a few spells first, practice them first and then theory, maybe it will have a certain beneficial effect on theoretical learning.
