Opening the properties panel, the column about the mirroring method soon came into Rhode's eyes.
"[Mirror Image Lv5]: Fourth-level water magic. It consumes 80 mana. Use it on yourself to generate a mirror image. The mirror image exerts 25% of the treasure effect of the main body and 5% of the artifact effect. The mana consumption of the mirror image will be borne by 150% of the main body.
The main body disappears after being damaged by 5% of its maximum health, and only one image can exist. The experience points required for upgrading."
As a fourth-level water magic, Mirror Image is recognized by all mages as the most practical water magic. This practicality is not reflected in combat, but in the study of spells.
The mirror magic that Rhodes mastered was not at Lv1 level. Before that, he spent a lot of experience points to upgrade the spell level, but even at Lv5 level, the effect of the spell was still not enough.
Next to Rhodes, the mirror image he had just condensed was exactly the same as the original body in appearance, and even the artifact was perfectly copied, but it was just an appearance.
The artifact effect that the mirror image can exert is only 5% of the original artifact. In other words, the Titan Arrow released through the mirror image can only cause 24 points of damage, which is not even as good as the first-level magic arrow. Compared with Rhodes's body
, it’s even more different.
Not only that, if the mirror image intends to cast magic, the mana it consumes will also be borne by Rhodes 1.5 times. Only Rhodes, who has mastered the source of magic, can bear this consumption without pressure.
In addition to spells, the melee ability exerted by the mirror image is consistent with that of the main body. However, the problem is that it seems to be exactly as the spell describes. It is a mirror image that can be broken at a touch. Damage exceeding 5% of the main body's maximum health is enough.
Crush him into pieces. If he is allowed to fight the enemy in close combat, he will disappear immediately if he is even slightly touched.
However, for the mages of Brakada, these are not difficult. They practice mirror magic not to rely on mirror images to fight, but to use them in spell research.
Under the influence of the mirror method, the mage can use one person as two people, doubling the efficiency of spell research. No spell is more practical than this.
Since he already knew the flaws of mirror magic, Rhodes did not upgrade this spell to a higher level. Previously, he relied more on condensing mirror images to interfere with the enemy's judgment.
At this time, due to the limitations of human blood and the threat of Moriel, Rhodes, who was not prepared to drink the blood-suppressing potion immediately, could only choose to upgrade the level of the Mirror Image Technique.
In the attribute panel, under the continuous battles of many legion members and Rhodes himself, the experience points he accumulated have already reached an exaggerated level, with a total of 70 million points. However, due to the God Seeker
Due to the professional specialty restrictions, the experience points required for Rhodes' upgrade are doubled. These 70 million experience points are not even enough to promote him to a legend.
What makes Rhodes helpless is that as his character level continues to increase, the shortcomings of the God Seeker's profession are also revealed.
Each time you advance to level six after level six, the required experience points start in the millions. The professional expertise of the God Seeker doubles the experience points required for upgrading, which undoubtedly makes promotion more difficult. Each time you increase one level, you need
A long period of accumulation.
Compared with the double experience points consumed, the double rewards obtained after upgrading are insignificant. According to Rhodes' calculations, he needs at least about 80 million experience points to upgrade his character level to the sixth level.
To be promoted to legend requires a huge amount of experience points.
For this reason, Rhodes hardly dared to spend experience points on improving spell levels, but now he has to do so.
As Rhodes thought, a series of prompts came from the system log.
"The experience value consumed is 50,000, and the remaining experience value is 7354,000. The level of the Mirror Image Technique has been increased to Lv6..."
"It consumes 60,000 experience points..."
"…………"
"The experience value consumed is 90,000, and the remaining experience value is 7324,000. The level of the Mirror Image Technique has been increased to Lv10..."
"[Mirror Image Magic Lv10]: Fourth-level water magic. It consumes 60 mana. Use it on a target that meets the conditions to generate a mirror image. The mirror image obeys the target's command and exerts 50% of the treasure effect of the body, 10% of the artifact effect, and the mirror image's mana.
The value consumption will be 100% borne by the main body. It will disappear after sustaining 10% of the main body's maximum health value. Only one image can exist. The experience points required for upgrading."
With the consumption of experience points, the effect of the Mirror Image Technique has also been significantly improved. When this spell reaches Lv10, the most obvious change is that it can cast the Mirror Image Technique on targets other than itself.
For the spell to take effect successfully, certain conditions need to be met. Although the system prompts did not make it clear, Rhodes, who had experience in his previous life, understood that it refers to the level of his own special skills, water magic.
When using the mirror image method on legendary creatures other than yourself, you must first have legendary water magic. Sixth-level high-level creatures correspond to epic water magic, and so on.
There are undoubtedly very few creatures with legendary water magic. Even the legendary mage of Brakada does not necessarily have this level of special skills. Copying legendary creatures through mirror images sounds very beautiful, but in actual practice
But it is difficult to achieve.
After reaching Lv10, the experience value required to upgrade the mirror magic suddenly rises, not 100,000, but 100,000. Correspondingly, the bonus will be higher as the level increases.
Except for a few magics, such as Titan's Arrow, or reincarnation, most normal spells will undergo a qualitative change when their level reaches a multiple of Lv5, as is the case with the Mirror Image Magic.
Lv10 mirror image magic, the mirror image generated by other targets must obey the command of that target. However, as the level of the mirror image magic continues to increase, after continuous qualitative changes, the final command of the mirror image will be the caster himself, even if the mirror image exists at the same time
The number will also be increased.
For a normal mage, it would take decades or even hundreds of years to reach this level of research, even with the help of previous experience. However, Rhodes was able to do this quickly with the consumption of experience points. "Consumption of 1 million experience points..."
"…………"
"500,000 experience points were consumed, and the remaining experience points were 5,824,000. The level of the Mirror Image Technique was increased to Lv15..."
"[Mirror Image Lv15]: Fourth-level water magic. It consumes 40 mana and is used on qualified targets to generate a mirror image. The mirror image obeys the caster's command and exerts 75% of the treasure effect and 35% of the artifact effect of the main body. The mirror image has
The current mana is equivalent to the main body. When the mana is insufficient, the consumption will be borne by the main body. It will disappear after sustaining 15% of the maximum health of the main body. There will be up to two mirror images. The experience points required for upgrading."
After upgrading the Mirror Image Technique to Lv15, Rhodes did not continue to upgrade. Every subsequent level up would consume millions of experience points, and even he could not easily come up with it. The Lv15 Mirror Image Technique was enough to cope with the current situation. After consuming about 15 million experience points, the Mirror Image Technique has changed from a small trick that interferes with the enemy's judgment to a terrifying magic that cannot be ignored. This also gives Rhodes more confidence in the next situation.
