Chapter 27 Promotion Exam (Part 2)
"Xu——" The Frost Arrow, which was ordinary in the eyes of countless formal mages, was accurately shot out.
The magic power did not collapse, nor did it have earth-shattering power.
Just shoot Medivh.
If a mage in the mage group shot such a frost arrow on the battlefield, he would at least get a qualified evaluation.
It may not be possible to shoot a fully armed soldier, but at least an unarmed peasant soldier can be killed.
That's the power.
If it was shot by a mage from the mage group, no one would think it was a big deal. However, in connection with Duke's too young face, Duke's performance immediately set off a storm in the hearts of the mages.
hell! How old is this kid?
Two standard and flawless 1st-level spells. Even if it seems ordinary, and thinking about Duke's performance in the trial space, the mages can't calm down at all.
Deriving the magic formula contained in it from the magic item is at least a skill that can only be mastered by an expert enchanter.
What a terrifying genius!
Recalling just now that I had besieged this super genius who was bound to be sheltered by Medivh, these proud mages felt a sense of remorse as they flattered their horses.
Anyone can see that Duke's mana is almost exhausted.
Casting a third spell was too much for his apprentice-level body. At this point, no one doubts that Duke can cast the third magic.
The only difference is time.
At this moment, Duke suddenly raised his hand, and his weak fingers began to gesticulate meaninglessly in the void. With the movement of the finger, everyone can clearly see that a blue streamer that symbolizes the brilliance of the arcane condenses where the index finger passes.
[Intelligence enhancement technique]! ?
An old mage let out a chuckle, and thought to himself: Sure enough, a rookie is a rookie.
One of the most standard pre-spells for a mage before casting a spell is [Intelligence Enhancement]. Temporarily enhancing one's intelligence can not only increase the upper limit of mana, but also slightly increase the power of magic.
No one will remind Duke or laugh at Duke. For them, what Duke is doing at the moment is the performance that a rookie should have. Just because of this common mistake in this perfect performance, they suddenly felt less uncomfortable in their hearts.
No matter how talented, Duke is still a mortal!
Over there, anyone could see that Duke was not doing well.
On the sidelines, the old man Norton finally couldn't help pinching his nose and reminded: "Don't be brave, take a rest, or you may damage your magic circuit."
The magic circuit is where the human body stores mana. A well-trained apprentice or mage can constantly expand his magic circuit safely and steadily through meditation, so as to achieve the purpose of accommodating more mana in the body and casting stronger magic.
Magic circuits are not static. At some point, it will be damaged due to various accidents, or more and wider circuits will be opened under a strong impact.
Now, Duke is clearly squeezing his potential, forcing himself to immediately cast the third level 1 magic.
Medivh, under the control of Sargeras' will, well showed the demeanor of a superior and a wise senior: "Young Duke, I strongly do not recommend that you continue immediately, you... well... maybe we will all watch to a miracle."
How vicious his eyes were, he immediately saw what Duke wanted to do.
It was Duke's intention to use [Pyroblast] and [Frostbolt] to drain his mana first.
It was as if blood was drawn by a syringe as thick as a stick, and Duke felt that the energy in his body was decreasing like a flood. Even so, the limit has not yet been reached.
If unconscious, the system spirit will take over the control of the spell. If he really died, and there was a resurrection, Duke would go all out and try his best to complete the last spell.
This is undoubtedly a big death for a true mage apprentice, but for Duke, it is only a relatively safe shock. He just wants to complete this sublimation in full view. If he can even do this, then the miracles he creates in the future will be recognized as 'normal', reducing the risk of exposure to the special existence of the system.
At the beginning, the mysterious runes of the Olympiad whizzed past one by one in Duke's spiritual sea.
Soon, Duke deliberately slowed it down under the command system, and Duke began to carefully compare the effects of these ghostly runes.
It is difficult to describe in detail how the [Intelligence Enhancement Technique] works. If I had to use an appropriate metaphor, it would be props. For example, with a grapple, a person can climb a cliff that cannot be climbed by human hands.
[Intelligence Enhancement] can add an extra magic circuit to the mage. However, Duke is using the complete magic circuit brought by the Wisdom Augmentation Technique, constantly comparing places in his body that may become magic circuits, and using the power of magic to transform his body.
Under normal circumstances, according to the general magic theory of Azeroth, this should be to use more excellent meditation rules, communicate with the elemental world for a long time, use arcane energy to immerse the body little by little, and transform the body, so as to open up a new magic circuit.
Now, what Duke is doing is an extremely risky leap forward.
Consciousness is becoming more and more blurred, and Duke doesn't know when he will lose consciousness. But as the last drop of mana in his body was wiped out, he felt that his spiritual world had touched a membrane.
On the opposite side of that membrane, there is a small but continuous stream of spiritual power, which is also his own power, which can be vaguely felt even through a layer of membrane.
Suddenly, the membrane was broken by Duke!
"Detected that the host's mana cap is increasing."
Ignoring the system wizard's prompt, Duke focused all his attention on the breakthrough. He absolutely refused to let go of that incomparably wonderful experience, as if something that didn't belong to him burst out in his body.
Obviously, there should only be blood and various body fluids flowing in the body. Obviously, this is the third kind of thing--the magic power produced by the magic circuit through the absorption of external energy in the true sense, rather than the pure magic power transformed from one's own life energy. mana.
Even though this magical power is very faint, like a light mist rushing towards the face, this power is like a traveler who has been thirsty for many days in the desert. Even the thinnest water mist can nourish his body and mind and become his soul. Motivation to keep going.
Level 1 [Wisdom Enhancing Technique] completed!
However, what all mages valued more was the arcane brilliance faintly shining on Duke's body.
This is the sign of a formal mage!
