Chapter 322: The Care of the Stars and the Control of Magic
Li Wen went straight to the Spider Web.
Most extraordinary beings, no matter how powerful they are in melee combat, have more or less certain spell-casting abilities, but this spell-casting ability can also be strong or weak.
For example, the Great Skeleton Orcus can never keep up with Rose the Spider Queen in terms of spellcasting ability.
So Li Wen first planned to test the waters with Spider Queen Rose.
The first time they met, the figure on the spider web, who was showing his teeth and claws and seemed to be twisting his body in a strange way, immediately stopped his lunatic behavior.
As her figure changed rapidly, a gorgeous giantess wearing a tight black butt-hugging fishtail skirt appeared in front of Li Wen.
"Who asked you to peek?"
Rose was so angry that she raised her smooth and white feet and kicked Li Wen.
This was not the first time for Dark Poppy. He had full experience. The moment Rose kicked his calf, he backed away to reduce the impact as much as possible. Then he opened his hands and hugged the kicked calf.
.
Rose, who retracted her right leg, felt the slight itching caused by the gentle friction on her leg, and couldn't help but stamp her feet with some heat.
She lowered her head and saw that the hateful little thing was sliding its face up and down on her leg.
"Let's go!"
Dark Poppy pinched the goddess's calf flesh, feeling wet and sticky.
So cute, I want to keep one.
The next moment, he was caught off guard and his entire body was lifted into the air by his collar and neck.
Then I saw that gorgeous face with black curly hair pretending to be angry.
Rose lightly opened her red lips.
"You didn't hear me when I asked you to come down, right?"
Dark Poppy raised his face and just smiled, while secretly charging a magic blast behind his back.
"Pa~"
Not surprisingly, the green energy ball failed to even leave a single mark on Rose's hand.
"Have you had enough trouble? Tell me, what are you here for?"
Rose knew the character of this little villain. Unless something happened, he would never come to her.
"Come and post~"
"Okay~"
Stick ~ squeeze ~ pinch ~
"Then what?"
After rubbing each other face to face for a long time, Rose threw Li Wen onto the spider web and hung him up, just like a bad spider that wants to eat its partner after mating.
"Pass your understanding of magic to me in your own way...well, just like the gifts you gave me before."
"Oh~ let me try."
As a large ball of cotton-like spider silk wrapped the bodies of Li Wen and Rose together, some strange and close connection was quietly established between the two.
Rose's use of magical power was shared with Li Wen's senses in some wonderful form.
This process is not an instant matter. In the continuous sharing state, Li Wen also started a rapid simulation process in his mind.
And it seems that because the previous foundation was very solid, when the factor of being given by an alien god appeared in the simulation of the new talent, the degree of completion did not fluctuate up and down. From the first day of the new year, it was originally 85
% progress jumped up by 5 percentage points, and steadily improved in subsequent simulations of soul energy input, without the previous hesitation...
The idea was correct, and Li Wen was ecstatic... But in the darkness, there seemed to be something soft and fragrant covering his lips?
…
Done.
As the spider silk fell off, two figures of about the same size were revealed.
You're done.
Just looking at Rose, who had a rosy complexion and taut hair at the corners of her mouth, Dark Bobby wiped her lips in disgust.
"Does it have to be so lustful..."
The bad woman's saliva is sticky and disgusting.
I'll never ask her for help again, so I'd better worry about that big skeleton.
"Gone."
"Are you leaving now?"
Rose licked her lips, and there seemed to be some unfinished content in her charming eyes.
She likes the scent of the human before her and longs to leave more pheromones about him. There are still too few pheromones in saliva among the many body fluids...
"Goodbye~ Oh no! Never again! Humph!"
Dark Poppy turned around and stepped into the docking circle next to the resurrection point.
Then he ran straight to the next abyss lord he met.
Who is the craziest in the endless abyss? Find out who is the father.
When Li Wen's footprints spread across most abyssal realms with powerful energy levels, his new talent was completely revealed.
[Racial Talent - Blessing of the Stars: The stars bless you, and the gods pray for you. As a person of original blessing, your body carries all the blessings related to the original laws. (The current profession is a spellcaster, the blessing display form
After receiving the news, Boswell quickly planned to greet him.
Great, I'm finally back.
3 hours!
Do you know how he got here these 3 hours?
Although Supreme Mage Stephen Blaise said nothing, the oppression brought about by his identity and strength seemed to weigh heavily on his heart.
How dare Master Li Wen do this?
To leave such a magic master recognized as the fourth in the world here?
You don’t want to mess around anymore, do you?
Not to mention that the adjutant, who used to be close to each other in the past, didn't know what happened today. It was as if his brain had been screwed by Master Li Wen.
The more he spoke, the darker the Supreme Mage's face became.
He appears to be loyal, but in reality he is completely rebellious.
But it's good that people are back now. Master Li Wen is back, so he doesn't have to continue to bear this terrible pressure.
Even now, he still doesn't know what the Supreme Master's purpose is in finding Master Li Wen.
"Please come back quickly!"
"Coming, coming."
Then everyone saw Li Wen with a smile on his face and a spring breeze on his face.
The brighter Li Wen smiled, the worse Stephen's mood became.
But there was a Ji'er beside his ear who kept making a fuss.
"He smiled so happily~"
"What happened to Master Li Wen that made him so happy?"
Oh, there is also an officer from the Burning Blade Legion who has been keeping fire here.
So no matter how generous Stephen was, his tone at this moment couldn't help but shout in a low tone.
"Master Li Wen..."...
Li Wen looked at the man in front of him doubtfully, "Who...are you?"
The second half of the sentence was asked while looking at Boswell.
Being obsessed with his new talent, he only vaguely remembered that Boswell said he would bring him to meet someone, but he didn't say who it was specifically.
Or maybe he said it but didn't pay attention.
"This is Master Stephen Blaise, the Supreme Mage of Silvermoon City. He has been waiting here for Master Li Wen for three hours."
The adjutant was the first to explain to Li Wen with a smile.
Li Wen glanced at him gratefully, then turned to look at the middle-aged man in his thirties who was sitting upright on the chair in front of him. He looked handsome and majestic, but now he had a gloomy face.
Greeting. "Sir Stephen... I don't know, what do you want to see me for?"
Li Wen felt that there was probably no connection between the Supreme Mage and him. If there was any connection, it would probably be that everyone was a mage, right?
"It's like this. I heard that Master Li Wen has superb attainments in magic, and I have been able to gain some experience in magic along the way, by practicing skills and exchanging experiences with outstanding magicians such as Master Li Wen, so I also
I hope Master Li Wen can give me some advice."
The picture is poor and can be seen.
It turned out that they were here to suppress Master Li Wen.
Boswell on the side was shocked and finally realized Lord Stephen's purpose.
It turns out that he couldn't see Master Li Wen, a mage from the Golden Lion Kingdom, taking over the throne in their Violet, and wanted to vent his anger on their Violet's mage.
Although but...
After all, they are the ones who have given them a complete solution to the abyss, and they are working hard to do so.
People should not be naturally colored because of their nationality.
Realizing the intentions of the Supreme Master, Boswell was extremely conflicted for a while. From a standpoint, he should firmly support the Supreme Master, but from a human perspective, he should support Master Li Wen.
dilemma.
However, the facts will not change according to his will.
"OK."
Li Wen responded with a smile, "Compared to what?"
Li Wen also likes to communicate with these high-level mages. Mages are a profession that requires communication. Working behind closed doors can produce excellent results only when there is sufficient knowledge accumulation.
"It's very simple, just like the control of spells, which is the foundation of every mage."
It's the basics, but it's also the thing that best demonstrates a mage's level.
For the same spell, who can control the spell more freely? The comparison is so obvious.
Speeding up spell casting, simplifying spell casting movements, silently reciting spells and other common operations that can actually optimize spell casting are basic operations for many powerful mages.
More powerful mages can even directionally control various more detailed spell-casting elements in different spells.
"Like, how about a simple secondary phantom?"
Secondary Phantom is just a trick. Even if you haven't learned it before, it won't take long to learn it on the spot...for an excellent mage.
If you don't have this ability to learn on the spot, then... you can't even be considered a normal and excellent mage, so there's no need to talk about the following...
Li Wen readily agreed.
"OK."
He wanted to see how this person, recognized as the number one among the high-level legends, could understand such a simple spell...or what tricks he could pull off.
"But you have to give me a secondary phantom spell scroll first."
Li Wen's qualifications for learning tricks did not include this simple trick.
"Here."
Stephen casually took out the spell scroll that Li Wen needed from the ripples in space.
While Li Wen was studying, Stephen began to slowly introduce the rules, or reasons, not only to Li Wen, but also to the other three people around him.
"We all know that mages who can only cultivate the plasticity faction can skillfully master the spells of the plasticity faction to prevent their power from accidentally injuring friendly forces. However, most of the time, not everyone specializes in the plasticity faction. Likewise, not all
The spells are all spells of the Evocation faction. At this time, if our spells cannot distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, then we will not be an excellent partner on the battlefield."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Wen's doubtful voice sounded next to him.
"Is this what you're talking about?"
Beside Li Wen, a vivid little lion was showing its teeth and claws towards the big guy. Its golden hair seemed to be disturbed by slight airflow, showing an almost flawless texture.
Cantrip—Lesser Illusion (Illusion): You create a sound or image of an object within casting range and maintain it until the spell's duration ends.
If you create a sound, its volume can range from a whisper to a high-pitched scream. It can be your voice or anyone else's, a lion's roar, a drum beat, or any other sound you specify.
The sound does not diminish during the duration, or you can create several discrete sounds at different times before the spell ends;
If you create an image of an object (such as a chair, muddy footprints, a small box, etc.), the size of the object must not be larger than one side length
5
A cube of feet. The image has no sound, light, taste, or any other sensory effects. Since the image can be penetrated by any object, any physical interaction with it will reveal its illusory nature.
Any creature investigating the sound or image must make a magic save against the spell. If the check is successful, it will be judged to be an illusion. The illusion will appear blurred in front of the creature that sees through it. (Release time: 3
This was Stephen's first subconscious reaction when he saw this spell.
Then he realized a problem——
Master Li Wen has never learned this spell before. This is the first time he has learned and used this spell, otherwise he would not ask for the spell scroll from himself.
And the first time he learned and used it, he allowed this trick to exhibit two qualities that could not appear at the same time in the hands of ordinary mages - sound and image.
And this was just what he said just now.
As expected, Master Li Wen, who has achieved such a great reputation, can demonstrate his kung fu in such subtle ways...
However, this is only the performance of the spell itself. A third-level mage who specializes in illusion may not do worse than Li Wen.
"So... how to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy?"
"so?"
Li Wen's thoughts moved slightly. The little lion crouched on the ground with four paws, looked at the people in front of him, opened its small mouth, and let out a mighty cry of "Oow!"
Boswell and his adjutant seemed to have fallen into a dazed state, their eyes straightened, and they were obviously caught in the judgment effect.
As for Stephen himself... he didn't feel the intimidation shown by the little lion at all.
It wasn't because of his superb magic power that he was directly exempted from spell effects, but because...Li Wen's little lion didn't deter him at all.
"this……"
Discretion Spell: When you cast a spell that causes other creatures to make a saving throw, you can exempt some of those creatures from the full power of the spell. The maximum number of target creatures you designate is equal to your Charisma modifier (which is at least 1).
The designated creature completely ignores the spell's saving throw.
Li Wen smiled at Stephen, "This should be a very basic thing, right?"
It's your turn.
There was only one meaning in Li Wen's smile.
He wanted to see what kind of special understanding the Supreme Mage could have on this ordinary trick.
Obviously, the Supreme Mage did not mean this.
"What a cute little lion~"
Listening to Ji Er's whisper next to him, Stephen wisely chose not to do whatever he wants. Perhaps Master Li Wen is an expert in the school of illusion?
So let's change the aspect. A real pharmacist should be an all-rounder and should not be obsessed with being the best in a certain field.
