028: Darkness deepens

"Forget it, let's learn the dark system first!"

After thinking over and over, Heath finally decided to use the dark system as his first magic spell for no other reason than simply to enhance his combat effectiveness.

The power of the spells that can be mastered by just condensing three characters is very limited. Take the signature spell of the fire system [Fireball] as an example. It can only summon a ball of flame the size of a fist, which can burn a person if it hits it. A little bit of skin would be nice.

Of course, this is true for the fire element, which is known for its attack, so it is even more unbearable for the dark element, which focuses on insidious damage.

But what is mentioned here are ordinary spell models that can usually be found in the academy library, and what Heath wants to learn is of course not ordinary models -

The Dark Codex of the Confinement Tower!

The spells recorded in this handbook are far from comparable to ordinary spells. They are combat spells that can actually be used in battle to cause fatal damage to the enemy. They are also the most terrifying black magic among combat spells!

If ordinary apprentice spells are compared to household kitchen knives, then combat spells are like military Mitsubishi bayonets, and there is no doubt about black magic——

gun!

Considering the current conflict with Joseph, Heath felt that it was still necessary to put the improvement of combat effectiveness first, so as to avoid having some ability to protect himself when he really encountered some trouble in the future. ..

"It's a pity..." Heath felt regretful. Originally, he was more attracted to the fire system. After all, just snapping his fingers and making fire and so on are so cool, okay?

"Forget it, it's not like I can't learn from it in the future."

After the third rune is condensed, you will get a spell mark corresponding to the rune's ability. In addition, when you condense the 5th, 7th, and 9th runes, you can also get an additional magic mark. A spell mark of free reign.

After calming down, Heath found an empty space and sat cross-legged, then closed his eyes and started building the model.

In the dark sea of ​​spiritual consciousness, there is now a rhombus-shaped polyhedron, like some kind of container made of multiple pieces of glass crystal -

This is the magic mark.

Heath's spiritual will turned into tentacles that extended into the spell mark and began to operate.

Outlining the magic track, arranging the runes, correcting the formula... everything is going on step by step.

He had already mastered the basic knowledge of building models in the three months in the Confinement Tower. All that was left was to create based on the model examples in his mind.

There is basically nothing difficult about apprentice-level spell models, especially those that can be used as teaching materials. They have been repeatedly modified by wizards to facilitate apprentices' understanding and learning. Even the black magic book in Heath's hand has gone through a lot of work by Karls. The annotations and difficult points are all very clear.

Stepping on the shoulders of his predecessors, Heath built the model smoothly and surprisingly smoothly. He completed the construction of the model in less than half an hour.

"Am I really the legendary Chosen One? A unique magical genius?"

Such smoothness made Heath a little unbelievable. You know, although apprentice-level spells are simple, apprentices who outline the model for the first time still rarely complete it in one go. It usually takes as few as three or five times and as many as seven or eight times. , there are many idiots who have failed even a dozen times.

"It's so beautiful! Did I really do this?"

Looking at the model in the spell mark, Heath became even more complacent.

At this moment, there is a shimmering structure inside the spell mark, which is composed of dots, lines and a large number of characters. It is like the constellations in the night sky, or some kind of ingenious handicraft, enclosed in the exquisite crystal.

Inside the cover, it is exceptionally gorgeous.

"What a fucking genius!"

After a shameless moment, Heath exited the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness and opened his eyes.

The next step is to test the power of the spell!

With this thought in mind, Heath stood up and walked towards the nearest magic target, which was a cross-shaped wooden stake with a doll tied with straw and rags tied to it, somewhat similar to the one in the field.

scarecrow.

However, there is a huge difference between the two. These dolls have spells cast by wizards on them. They can withstand extremely high damage without being damaged. They are specially used to test spells for apprentices.

At this moment, there were many people lined up around the target, all waiting to test the spell. Heath looked around and saw that the situation around other targets in the distance was similar. There were relatively fewer people here.

So I just queued up obediently.

"Fire! Explode!"

"Frost! Freeze!"

"Lightning! Fall!"

Spells echoed on the training ground, flames, frost, lightning, and magic beams of various colors streaked through the air, and then hit the magic doll heavily.

The head of this magic doll is the head of a crow. Whenever it is attacked by magic, it will open its beak and loudly report the detailed data of the apprentice's spell, and make a 'courtesy' for the spell given to the apprentice.

evaluate.

"Quack, fireball, 3rd degree attack, poor little guy, are you tickling me? Or did you forget to drink grandma this morning..." Degree is a unit used by wizards to evaluate the power of spells.

"Quack, frost spell, 1st degree attack, 2nd degree slowness...Huh? Your magic is over? Is that also called magic?"

"Gaga, thunderbolt, 3.6 degrees, not bad, not bad, this electrotherapy makes me very comfortable. Have you considered opening a massage parlor in the city? I am not referring to magic, but to your body. Compared to magic,

More attractive..."

This crow puppet has a very poisonous mouth...

Heath saw that every apprentice who went up for the test was badly hurt by the crow. The girl behind who used the 'Lightning Technique' was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it. Her face turned red before the crow finished speaking.

ran away.

The vicious crow was still chasing after him and yelling: "Hey? Don't run away. Can you do it for three hundred yuan a night? No more, for the sake of your big breasts..."

Heath somewhat understood why there were fewer people here...

Soon, it was his turn.

"Is this apprentice a freshman? Why are you here? Is he also here to test magic?"

"No way, isn't the first grade just admitted to the hospital a few months ago?"

"He looks so small and cute."

As soon as he appeared on the stage, Heath aroused heated discussions among the onlookers. After all, there are not many first-year students who can master offensive spells. Most of the people gathered here are seniors. Put among a bunch of seventeen or eighteen-year-olds.

Among the big brothers and big sisters, this 14-year-old boy is too conspicuous.

After seeing Heath take out the cross sword seriously, this heated discussion reached its peak.

"Wow, it's true, he's really going to attack the devil."

"Silly boy, if I were you I wouldn't do this. That damn doll will damage you to the point where your parents won't even recognize you. If you don't want to make a joke and hurt your confidence, just stop it quickly."

Regardless of good intentions or ridicule, everyone does not think highly of Heath, after all, he is too young.

Heath ignored the dissuasion of others and just held his sword in the air and shook the sword flowers——

Rune gestures.

There is no fixed template for the runic gestures required to cast spells. Wizards can choose a convenient method based on their own conditions. Heath chose Sword Flower here because of convenience, and of course because it is handsome!

Whether you are powerful or not is a temporary matter, but whether you are handsome or not is a lifelong matter!

Along with the sword flowers, there was also his sonorous and powerful mantra chanting: "Abyss, destruction, hell, the place where all corruption breeds... The wail of bones and the cry of dead souls are even the devil's heart.

Fear...power, bow down to me and accept servitude!"

"The darkness deepens!"

Darkness deepens: The wizard attaches dark element particles to the solid casting medium to attack the enemy. Each attack will detonate a dark element damage, which can be detonated three times in total. Each detonation will cause superimposed damage.

This is a spell that Heath carefully selected from the Magic Codex. It is somewhat similar to a status spell. Its advantage is its power, three attacks and superimposed damage, even if it is a spell of the same level placed in the Black Magic Codex.

It is also second to none.

But its shortcomings are also obvious, that is, it requires a solid casting medium, such as a weapon, to detonate dark element particles when attacking the enemy with the weapon. This basically can only be used in close combat. For apprentices with weak bodies, only

You can give up on this point. After all, most apprentices are not melee Gandalfs who dual-wield and activate flash.

But Hiss is different. As a melee unit, he doesn't have the troubles that other apprentices would encounter. On the contrary, this spell can greatly enhance his actual combat ability, as if it was tailor-made for him.

The apprentice's power is very limited. For now, Heath feels that the sword in his hand is much easier to use than any spell.

"Wow, what kind of spell is this? It looks so handsome!"

"It's the dark type's [Intensified Damage], I guess, but the rhythm of the magic power fluctuations is different..."

With the gradual release of Hiss spells, the surrounding apprentices suddenly started a heated discussion. After all, the various appearances when black magic was released were still very different from the conventional magic they learned in daily life. Everyone was very interested.

I'm curious as to what kind of magic Heath learned.

Soon, the last character of the spell fell.

The flashing sword flowers also stopped abruptly.

A black light flashed on the sword blade, and a layer of ink-like black dyed the bright silver cross sword, as if it was plated with a layer of black gold. The entire blade turned pitch black, under the sunlight.

An indescribable chill was released outwards.

So powerful!

"Whoosh!~" A gust of wind suddenly swept over at the right time, rolling up the yellow sand in the sky and lifting Heath's half-length black hair.

Accompanied by this gust of wind, Heath held the sword in both hands and rushed towards the doll resolutely!

"Wow!" a sound.

Hiss cut through the wind, like a black lightning, hitting the puppet hard. Three black lights could be seen flashing in succession in the dust and sand in the sky. In the dust and smoke, "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

'There were three violent explosions, and the crow man shook violently.

After a while.

The wind stopped, the sand stopped, and everything became calm again.

The dust and smoke dissipated, revealing the figures of Heath and the crow puppets again.

At this moment, everyone opened their eyes wide and looked over there. After all, everyone had seen the prestige just now. Everyone wanted to know what kind of damage this new student had done.

I didn't wait for long, but soon, the crow's voice sounded, full of incredible:

"Okay...good boy...you hurt me..."

"Dark system, increased damage: 6 degrees, 9 degrees, 16 degrees! Explosion damage!"

The crowd fell silent first, then...

There was an uproar!
