Chapter 445 Magic Rope (Ⅱ)
"I only have a 'Magic Rope' scroll with me. Using this scroll can save a spell slot."
Martin looked reluctant to use the scroll.
He had a large student loan on his back, and his life was quite tight. He had to plan carefully and used up an expensive "Magic Rope" scroll, which inevitably felt painful.
Joan also came from a poor family, and seeing Martin's thoughts, he asked, "Senior Martin, can you lend me a copy of the 'Magic Rope' scroll? I have more spell slots, so I can cast this spell for you."
"Of course, but in this short day, are you really sure to learn the 'magic rope technique'?" Martin looked at Joan in surprise.
"From past experience...it's impossible to master it skillfully, but if you spend more time casting it, you should be able to make do with it. Anyway, the 'Magic Rope' technique doesn't need to be cast in battle, so I don't care if it takes a few more minutes Casting time." Joan replied truthfully.
Martin was stunned for a long time, took out the scroll and handed it to Joan, and said with mixed emotions: "The gap between genius and mediocrity is much bigger than I imagined."
After a hasty dinner, Joan took the "Magic Rope" scroll borrowed from Martin and took a pen to copy it. It took half an hour to copy the 2-level spell into his spell book verbatim.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and everyone was ready. A group of eight people boarded the carriage, driven by Bobby, and headed for the "Wrangler Valley" overnight.
During the rush, Joan lowered his head without saying a word, concentrating on analyzing the magic configuration of the 2-ring "Magic Rope".
The people in the same car didn't talk to each other for fear of disturbing Joan, who was immersed in a state of high mental concentration.
Although they didn't say anything, everyone had the same question in their hearts. In such a short period of time, could Joan really master a brand new spell?
There is no shortage of geniuses in Leiden Academy. Thomas and Edward are even more famous in the academy than Joan, but they all have self-knowledge. Not to mention the successful cast out.
The carriage galloped in a dull atmosphere.
Initially driving on a flat road, after turning into a valley, the road gradually became rough, and the carriage had to slow down, but the bumps were still severe, making the passengers dizzy and nauseous.
Joan didn't seem to be affected by the bumps of the carriage, and was still immersed in his own spiritual world, methodically analyzing the configuration of the spell and deducing the key points of the spell.
The carriage drove on the mountain road for two hours, and when it was almost midnight, it finally entered the hinterland of the valley and stopped under a towering tree.
The car door opened, and Xiao Miao was the first to jump out, taking a deep breath of the fresh air in the valley to dispel the feeling of motion sickness, and then turned around to help Rebecca get out of the car.
Edward, Thomas, Martin, A Zhi and Teacher Benny also got off the car one after another, leaving only Joan sitting alone in the carriage, lost in thought.
Everyone didn't dare to disturb him, so they took a walk under the tree and observed the surrounding terrain by the way.
About ten minutes later, Joan seemed to wake up from a dream, got up and jumped off the carriage.
"Joan, you've finally come back to your senses." Rebecca greeted her happily, "How is your spell research going?"
"It's going well, let's try it later." Joan held the slender hand that Rebecca handed over, and walked side by side under the tree. Looking up at the shade of the tree covering the moonlight, he said with emotion: "This banyan tree is really big, one tree is equivalent to a forest."
"Is there any special reason why you chose to meet the 'Shepherd' here?"
"I didn't think too much about it, it's just because it's secluded enough to fight without disturbing unrelated people."
"It would be a pity if such a beautiful scenery was stained with blood." Rebecca sighed, "But there is no way to do it, let's go over there and find a suitable place to cast the 'Magic Rope Technique' .”
Joan took her by the hand and walked to the end of the valley. On the opposite side was a steep rock wall, about twenty yards high, bare and barren. Qiao An glanced back and had a panoramic view of the scenery around the banyan tree.
"The view here is good, let's cast spells here." Rebecca asked inquiringly.
Joan nodded, took out the spell-casting materials prepared before leaving Chap's farm, a small bag of rye flour and a roll of parchment, and chanted the spell-casting spell in a low voice.
Thomas sent Bobby to drive home with an empty car, and led his companions to gather around Joan to watch him perform the "magic rope trick" that he had learned and sold.
Martin scratched his head in confusion, and asked Rebecca in a low voice, "When did Joan prepare the 'magic rope technique'?"
A mage usually wakes up early in the morning and prepares all the spells that may be used that day.
If you urgently need a certain spell but haven't prepared it in advance, you can spend at least half an hour meditating to cover a spell of the same ring that has been prepared in advance and has not yet been cast with the spell you currently need. "Law" is a compulsory course for senior students of pastors and masters at Leiden College.
"Alternative preparation" can improve the flexibility of priests and mages in casting spells to a certain extent, but the half-hour re-preparation time is quite long, and it is impossible to have such ample time on the battlefield, so this technique is not applicable It is used for combat casting and is generally only used for daily casting.
Martin would not be very surprised if Joan had mastered the "alternative preparation method" in advance, a skill that only comes into contact with fourth grade. After all, he is a genius, but he clearly remembered that Joan had been concentrating on studying the "magic rope" There is no time to distract yourself from the "substitute preparation".
Even if it took only three hours for Joan to learn the "magic rope technique", it stands to reason that he couldn't use it right away. Doesn't he need to prepare the spell in advance?
"Joan doesn't need to prepare spells in advance," Rebecca's words confirmed Martin's guess, "He got the 'Sid Mana' from the 'Fairy Lord' Ms. Liyanan, using this magical power, he can act like Like a warlock, he can release the spells he needs at any time."
Martin was dumbfounded.
In fact, Rebecca's explanation was not accurate.
Joan's "Sid's mana" has been used up today, and at this moment, the "power of myth" is used to replace the second-level spell slot to cast "Magic Rope".
However, apart from himself, all onlookers including Rebecca couldn't distinguish between "myth power" and "Sid's mana", and took it for granted that this was also "Sid's mana".
For a mage like Martin who is proficient in the "Magic Rope Technique", it only takes 3 seconds to cast this spell. Joan is far from proficient at the beginning of practice, so he can only slow down the casting rhythm to ensure the success rate. It took nearly ten minutes to finish casting the spell, and the wheat flour and parchment in his palm turned into two wisps of smoke and dust and merged into a bundle of ropes.
