Chapter 17 You wipe off the nosebleed before leaving!
Wanting to learn magic is actually not an accurate wording. To be precise, it means wanting to become a spell caster.
This is not an easy task, because there are many types of spellcasters. Some are born with abilities, and some are gifted spells. However, the largest number of spellcasters still rely on their own efforts to learn step by step.
Master the power of magic.
This kind of person is called a mage.
The reason why it is not easy is that training a qualified mage is very time-consuming, because as a mage, you must first be able to read.
There is no compulsory education in this plane, and most people are illiterate. Only about one-third of my classmates at the Adventurer Training School can speak, speak, read, and write, so they won't be given textbooks or anything like that. See
There are too few people who understand.
The ratio of one-third is already considered high. If the scope is expanded to the entire plane, almost 90% of the people are illiterate and can only spell their own names at most.
Moreover, literacy is just the threshold. You also have to learn Elvish, Dragonic, magic-specific characters, etc., all of which must meet the minimum standard of being able to read and write. Just learning the language will already consume a lot of time, and even more
Not to mention the need to memorize and practice the spells.
There are many types of magic in this world. According to the principles, it can be divided into arcane magic, divine magic, psychic magic, contract magic and so on.
If divided according to the method of casting spells, it can be divided into model magic, rune magic, fairy magic, sacred magic, summoning magic, spirit manipulation magic, etc. It is really quite complicated.
I don’t know if you who read the note have the same ability as me to be able to easily read it in any language or text. As far as I know, it does not come from the Demon King system, so my choice may not be suitable for you. If you also
If you want to embark on the path of a spell caster, I hope the above words can give you a basic idea. Please choose carefully.

–‐‐——–‐‐——
It is too time-consuming to train a qualified mage. Due to faculty strength and practical considerations, the Adventurer Training School does not directly teach students real magic. It mainly teaches some magic common sense related to adventurers. There is not much
Practical operations.
But if you want to study, the school does leave a way.
The school library has magic materials collected from all over the world, including many real spells. Although there are many categories of magic, there are more or less some collections in the school library.
Of course, for a mage, spells are his most valuable treasure. Really powerful spells are the heart and soul of every mage and cannot be contributed casually.
Therefore, the number of spells in the school library is not only small, but also some low-level spells that can be purchased from the market with just money, and are very widely circulated.
However, this kind of practical low-level spell is just suitable for novices who are new to magic. It is impossible to let primary school students who have just learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division directly learn calculus in the next class. For those who want to embark on the path of spell casters, adventurers
The school's collection is just right.
Pei Renli saw the library yesterday when he was walking around the school to familiarize himself with the environment, and wanted to go in and have a look.
Don't forget, one of his reasons for coming to the Adventurer School is to collect some information about the plane he comes from. So far, his understanding of the multiverse world is limited to the small town of Naspar, and his vision is really too narrow.
Already.
But the library may not have been prepared yesterday and the door was closed tightly, making it impossible to get in even if you wanted to.
Today, with the unkindness of his teacher and his enthusiasm for learning magic, Pei Renli rushed to the library without caring about his muscle soreness.
Fortunately, this time, the library is finally open.
It was a three-story stone building with no windows. If it weren't for the sign hanging at the door, it would have felt like a bunker, with one solid protrusion.
Because there are no windows, there is naturally no sunlight in the library, but the inside seems to be enchanted, with volleyball-sized light groups floating above the head, but it is not dark at all.
The library can be said to be the most expensive place in the adventurer school, but it is also the least visited place. After all, there are not many literate people.
Pei Renli quickly walked in, followed the sign hanging above his head, looked at the bookshelves one by one, and found the area filled with magic materials without much effort.
There are many types of magic, which can be divided not only according to the principle of style, but also according to the method of casting spells, as well as the types of spells.
There are so many classifications because magic is a very large subject. Self-study not only requires a lot of time, but is also very difficult.
Perrenli is very interested in magic, but according to the style of magic, it cannot provide help in a short time. Many guys who also want to learn magic may not be able to do so even if they use up their two years at the Adventurer School.
The simplest magic that can be thrown out.
It's somewhat irrational to choose this path. After all, the threat of the Demon King's Arena may bring disaster to Pei Renli at any time.
After a lot of time and energy is taken up by magic, it will be even more difficult to learn anything else. Therefore, Pei Renli must be cautious. He does not have much room for error and can try and make mistakes at will.
However, Peri Renli has an advantage. He can easily read any text and talk to anyone in any language without any problem. He can even switch freely as if instinctively.
This is equivalent to skipping the most difficult language part of learning magic. What's more, there is a method of casting spells in magic called rune magic.
It's the kind that the teacher just showed, where different spell effects are generated through the combination of runes with different meanings.
The light spell is the simplest one. The runes are simply drawn in a circle. It doesn't matter whether they are round or not.
The characteristic of rune magic is that it is easy to learn but difficult to master. The more advanced the spell, the more complex the runes are required and the length of the runes becomes more and more exaggerated.
Give an example.
The simplest Chinese character is "一", but there are also characters like "biang" in Chinese characters that cannot be typed by electronic products.
In the fleeting battle of lightning-fast fighters, not only must every word be correct, but even the order of strokes must be correct. That's why it is said that rune magic is easy to learn but difficult to master.
His eyes scanned the thick backlog of books, and finally he found a book that read 'Practical Rune Magic, Standard Spells Volume 1'.
The first page is the light technique that the teacher demonstrated before. Not only the pattern of the runes is more standard, but also the principle and composition are explained in large paragraphs.
The Adventurer School has three classes in the morning and one class in the afternoon. After that, the students can do whatever they want, so Pei Renli doesn't have to worry about missing the class while squatting in the library.
With interest and a real threat as motivation, Pei Renli quickly became engrossed in what he saw. By the time he rubbed his dry eyes, he didn't know how much time had passed.
Of course, just reading a book is not enough, it is just talking on paper, and magic must be mastered through continuous practice.
After trying hard to recall his previous feelings, Pei Renli stared at the runes on the book, stretched out his fingers and drew an S-shaped symbol in the air.
A thin layer of spiritual light lit up on the fingertips, as if the air were used as cardboard, leaving clearly visible runes.
The next moment, the runes twisted and disappeared, and a ball of light exploded, like a miniature flash bomb, making Pei Renli unable to open his eyes.
Done!
The one we just experimented with is called the flash spell. Like the light spell, it is the most basic form of magic, and its effect is limited to creating a ball of flash.
But the significance of its success is not just the spell itself, it means that Pei Renli has the qualifications to become a spell caster.
Speaking of which, when he was registering for school, his certificate said 'Magic: c', and the evaluation was pretty good. He should study it carefully and expand his advantages at lower levels, which is far more important than making up for his shortcomings.
Can form combat effectiveness faster.
This is obviously related to his language ability that comes with time travel. This ability existed before the Demon King System was activated, so it should have nothing to do with it. Although there is currently no clue as to how his ability came about, at least it is better than
The Demon King system brought by people on the wrong path is more reliable, so you can still try it.
"Your gestures should be more decisive and not hesitant."
Just as he was secretly happy, a cold female voice interrupted Pei Renli's plan to continue his research.
When he looked up, he saw a fair but thin girl standing in front of the table, staring at him with eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
Pei Renli knew this person, her name was Eve, and she was one of the few people in the classroom who had successfully used the light spell before.
Perrenli would know Eve because she was related to that paparazzi of Korra. She found out everyone's names on the first day and even showed off to Perrenli and the others.
What's more, when we ran 1,500 meters this morning, Pei Renli was undisputedly the last, and the second to last was Eve.
Moreover, the dormitories of the Adventurer School are not divided into men and women. After all, they are all single rooms. Eve lives next door to Perrenli...
Although there have been many opportunities for contact, this was the first time I heard Eve speak. She had always acted like she was listening and rarely interrupted.
"In addition, you cannot use spells casually in the library, or you may be fined."
The title page of the book that Pei Renli was reading said in bright red letters, 'Experiments are prohibited in the library to avoid accidents', but when he got into the mood just now, he completely forgot about it.
"Can you do magic?"
Since she can give advice, she should be able to.
"A little bit, but I don't know how to teach others. I just give some suggestions."
After saying that, she turned around and left, holding a book almost as thick as a dictionary in her hand, which she probably came to borrow.
But I don’t know if she was too exhausted by the basic training like Pei Renli. When Eve went out, her left foot crossed her right foot, and she fell to the ground with a crash.
"Are you okay?"
"fine."
After patting the dirt on her body, Eve's expression remained unchanged. After saying, "Learning magic is difficult, you have to think clearly," she drifted away towards the setting sun.
It looked very cool, but Pei Renli still couldn't hold it back and chased after him and shouted:
Chapter completed!
