During the dinner, we didn’t talk about anything in depth. We just let Duke get to know all the arcane mages in Penrose Mage Tower.
As for Penrose himself, Duke only met once during reporting and did not see him again for several days.
As the ruler of the Union Tower, Penrose has very little time to spend in his Mage Tower.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Duke for the time being.
He is still in the initial stage of learning. He follows Vikas as a tutor every day and studies knowledge seriously for three hours.
The temple of spiritual arcana has been continuously explored and forged by generations of arcane mages into a temple of knowledge. This knowledge is difficult to find in books because words and images cannot accurately convey the spirituality in it.
This requires word of mouth, so there is the mage tower and mentor system.
"Your understanding is really good. Among the many students I have taught, you can understand all the knowledge points without me having to repeat them." Vikas was very pleased.
"You taught me well."
"Haha, you don't need to flatter me. I know my teaching level very well. But the next practical application will take a lot of time. Absorbing elements, transporting elements, and building up elements are all time-consuming work. Hurry up.
Not coming."
"I understand."
"What arcana are you going to choose to build the first arcane wonder?" Vikas asked.
"I want to solidify the defense type arcana, Vikas will help. In terms of defense, which level 1 arcana do you think is the best?"
"Defensive arcana? This is a prudent choice. Nothing is more important than personal safety." Vikas agreed with Duke's choice and gave the answer after thinking for a moment, "I have two arcana recommendations here, aura shield.
and Arcane Shield."
He soon gave the advantages and disadvantages of the two arcane spells: "The aura shield is better in its comprehensive protection and no dead spots, but it is easy to be targeted and broken; the arcane shield can condense a shield, and depending on the details of the spell,
Transform various element attributes, but the defense area is only one side."
Duke has used the aura mask many times. Every time he fights in the wild, he likes to activate a nimbus mask first to remain invincible.
But as Vikas said, the shortcoming of the aura mask is mediocrity.
The 360-degree protection without blind spots also means that its protection is too scattered and can easily be broken.
The arcane shield is different. It can only condense one shield and the area it protects is limited.
But at the same time, the protection of a shield is undoubtedly stronger. At the same time, it can start from the details of spell casting and transform element attributes.
In other words, you can condense a water-attribute arcane shield, or you can condense a fire-attribute arcane shield.
The protection strategy is more targeted.
"I choose the arcane shield." Duke made a decision quickly without overthinking it. After all, he could continue to solidify the aura shield behind the arcane shield.
Other arcane mages also have to consider what arcane spells to solidify for use in combat.
Duke doesn't need to worry about this. A ring of sand eagle is enough to make up for his lack of combat effectiveness. Just stack the armor as hard as you can.
Vikas did not interfere with Duke's choice, and just said: "It's up to you to decide, but I have to remind you that the arcane wonders in the ring system have limited positions. Most arcane mages can build arcane wonders at the 1st ring stage.
, only 3."
"Thanks for the reminder." Duke nodded to express his understanding.
Arcane Wonders are for instant arcane spells. In fact, arcane mages can learn a variety of arcane spells and actively cast them.
Using spirit cards is the fastest way.
Arcane cards can only exert their maximum value in the hands of an arcane mage.
There are even some powerful arcane mages who, with long-term practice of certain arcane spells, can almost achieve the same effect as instant casting.
"Okay, you have made your choice, then let me take you to the wonder room to observe the wonder structure of the arcane shield."
The Wonder Room is an important part of the Mage Tower and is where the heritage lies.
Its function is similar to a library, but instead of storing books, it stores arcane wonders one by one that are outlined with special materials.
The twenty-first floor is the Wonder Room.
The entire ring-shaped floor was divided into countless doors, and Vikas took Duke to one of the doors.
The sign "Arcane Shield" hangs on the door.
"Go in, and I wish you can build your own arcane shield wonder soon." Vikas signaled Duke to enter, and he turned and left.
When I opened the door, it was very dark inside.
After Duke closed the door, it was as if a certain mechanism had been opened, and for an instant, countless stars lit up in the dark room.
These stars are like flying fireflies, gradually gathering towards the center of the room, outlining a huge structure similar to a spell model.
This structural building appears as a circular shield.
Similar to the spell model, it is also outlined by countless energy lines. It can be clearly seen that this is a 1-level spell model structure.
But the difference is that this structural building is far more delicate than the spell model.
It is so exquisite that each energy line is made up of countless modules, and each module represents a piece of arcane information.
"Is this an arcane wonder?" Duke was shocked by the fluorescent building in front of him.
Compared with the simple spell model that is compressed in the spirit card, this structural building truly reveals how spiritual energy constructs an arcane spell.
This is equivalent to zooming in on the chip and seeing the dense circuits on it.
"If a card repairman is equivalent to a mobile phone repair master, then a card maker who makes spiritual cards is probably equivalent to a photolithography machine!"
At this moment, he realized how big the gap was between the card repairer who was a spiritual apprentice and the card maker who was an arcane mage.
"It's no wonder that there is only one card-making scholar in the entire Heijiao River, Penrose. The process of making cards is comparable to making chips! This is not a job that the human mind can imagine at all. Just copying it will probably kill countless brain cells.
Let’s do it!”
Looking at the fluorescent building in front of him, Duke suddenly felt a small sense of inferiority.
This is definitely not something that humans can do.
The sages were truly great. They were able to build such complex microscopic buildings with just their own brains.
However, this feeling of inferiority was quickly broken by him with great perseverance: "But for me, the complexity in front of me is not called complexity!"
He yelled in his heart: "Xiaoyi, remember it for me!"
Then he circled around the fluorescent building, using his eyes to see every detail of the wonder structure building, providing data for Xiaoyi, and helping Xiaoyi build an identical 3D image of the wonder structure building in his spiritual sea.
It took three hours.
The door to the Arcane Shield Wonder Room was pushed open, and Duke walked out with an unfazed expression - there was no need to come back to this Wonder Room.
