Chapter 271 Obtaining a Memory Fragment
Zoina worriedly shouted: "Senior! Behind you!"
An angel soldier statue appeared behind Locke in mid-air.
The angel's face showed an indifferent expression, and his cold marble body seemed to have no emotion at all. A huge two-handed stone sword was enveloped in rich transformation magic energy, and then slashed towards Locke's back.
Locke turned around, used the grass and trees as soldiers, controlled the black-locked sword bamboo, turned around and blocked the stone sword from the angel statue soldier.
The black magic pressure and the invisible transformation energy created a fierce confrontation. A vortex composed of magic airflow appeared between the statues of Locke and Angel.
Locke noticed that the stone sword in the opponent's hand was extremely heavy, but it seemed to be as sharp as a metal sword.
It can be regarded as possessing the characteristics of both a stone sword and an iron sword.
This should be the effect created by some kind of transformation technique.
The opponent's stone sword is still flowing out of transformation energy. He wants to change the shape of the weapon in his hand, but the magic level of the Black Lock Sword Bamboo is not low, so it completely resists this transformation energy.
If it were an ordinary weapon, I am afraid that the moment it comes into contact with this stone sword, it will turn into something unknown.
『It’s quite good. I have rarely fought against such high-level shapeshifters. It can just increase my combat experience in this area. ’ Locke thought.
The black-locked bamboo sword in his hand was wrapped with black magic pressure, and the magic pressure in it had gradually been replaced by his own magic pressure from Albert's.
This means that he has gradually begun to fully master this rare magic plant, and the quality of the magic pressure has begun to catch up with Albert.
The bodies and stone swords of the angel statue soldiers who were fighting against Locke had some kind of cracks constantly appearing, and from those cracks, flowing energy of transformation appeared.
"I remember that the magic of the Transfiguration School is the magic of changing the form." Locke looked at the angel statue soldier in front of him and said: "It is not like the Enchantment School, which is the magic of changing the state, or the Alchemy School, which is the magic of changing the essence."
"Therefore, even if the transformation spell is used, its own state and material strength have not changed, so the stone statue is only as strong as the stone statue."
"It is not a troublesome golem. Of course, this number is indeed very troublesome."
Locke waved the black-locked sword bamboo. Driven by the Weapon of Grass and Trees spell, the body of the angel statue soldier began to crack, turning into pieces and falling to the ground.
The deformation energy on those gravels can be dissipated.
At the same time, a transparent crystal appeared inside the pile of rubble. Locke waved his hand and the Bad Omen Mandela vine sent the crystal into his hand.
At the same time, at the moment when the angel statue soldier shattered, an invisible energy flew out from it and fell towards his body.
"This is..." Locke stayed in mid-air, showing a trace of surprise. "This is actually a memory fragment of a ring wizard, which contains his understanding of magic."
Locke looked at the manor on the ground that was full of decay and quiet beauty, as well as the many stone soldiers in the manor, and came to his senses.
Part of it is not an understanding of specific spells, because in this memory echo, the consciousness of this first-level wizard has been broken, and he has died. But these are just the memory fragments after his death, and the remaining memory fragments are the essence of magic."
Locke said: "In other words, this memory echo secret realm is like a mineral vein. The more I kill, the more magical insights I can get, allowing me to further improve my understanding of first-level spells."
The echo of a ring wizard will not exist permanently in the main material plane, and will be worn away by the power of the main material plane due to the passage of time.
Hence, to create this kind of secret realm, it would take a huge amount of resources, as well as resources to maintain it every moment.
And it is necessary to select among the many echoes the echoes that are suitable to be maintained and whose memory fragments can be mined.
Of course, it is not only a question of whether it can be produced, but also the restriction of the association’s ethical review mechanism.
The number of official wizards who can openly create echoes after death as a secret realm should be extremely limited.
It is very likely that the official wizard’s consent before his death is required, or even a contract must be signed.
This can explain why Lilith's cabin does not have a memory echo secret realm of a plant wizard, but an echo of an official wizard of the Transfiguration School.
It is obvious that choosing a plant-based wizard will have better results.
Locke said to Zoina, "Zoina, you are also a first-class wizard apprentice, and you still have close to 600 mana. So I will let you down later and let you fight on your own."
"In this secret realm, fighting is mining. We need to fight to obtain the memory fragments we need, and it seems that these marble statues controlled by transformation will also drop specific magic. Magic crystals. "
"They are all the best raw materials for preparing potions."
"Zoina's face turned pale, obviously she was not prepared, "Senior, I...do I want to fight? I was not prepared at all. I thought the secret realm was just a simple resource collection type mission."
"I...can I quit midway?"
Locke looked at her in surprise. "Have you never fought before?" Zoina nodded immediately, as if she thought Locke could understand her. "Yes, senior. During the five years I was in Lilith's cabin, I studied every day, and then I did research and projects every day, and I never fought at all."
"Now I am suddenly asked to fight...I...I'm a little uncomfortable."
Locke glanced at Zoina speechlessly. To be honest, even if the white wizards have fewer daily battle scenes, Zoina's situation is still quite extreme.
Because ordinary white wizard apprentices must make money in order to obtain magic resources.
In the second-class wizard apprenticeship stage, you will receive academy tasks, so even if there are few battle scenes, they are not completely absent.
For example, clean up the harmful magical creature groups near the college, conduct magic plant investigation tasks, etc.
But Zoina seemed to be too talented, so she just immersed herself in research and study along the way, and achieved her current achievements.
『No wonder Teacher Harun Vera asked me to take care of her. If no one takes her, she may die as soon as she enters the wizard's secret realm. It is simply a waste of the opportunity to enter the secret realm. ” Locke suddenly realized.
Locke dodged the three-headed angel statue soldiers flying into the air and chasing after him, and dodged the arrows fired at him by the archer stone statues on the ground.
“Zoina, you have never fought, but at least you have learned some combat spells. I will find a safe place to put you down, and then you can work hard. You should also have the map given by the teacher. There are many statues with higher kill value marked on the map. Just look at the map and decide for yourself.”
"Zoina, you need to learn to dig your own mines."
"The first-class wizard apprentice has reached the stage of independent research, and the project you are currently working on was given to you by the teacher. This is a serious problem. You must take the initiative to do everything yourself."
After all, this is a trial, and Teacher Harlan Vera only asked himself to help her a little, and he is not her nanny.
After entering this secret realm, Locke finally understood the meaning of the map given by Harlan Vera.
It seems that due to certain restrictions, or for the sake of fairness, this is a trial after all, so Harun Vera did not mention too much specific information about the secret realm on the map he gave himself.
Perhaps he thinks that for such a matter, students will adapt to the situation on their own after entering the secret realm, otherwise the trial will be meaningless.
This kind of secret realm of wizards is probably one of the rare occasions where white wizards can experience actual combat.
Zoina looked pale and said extremely nervously: "Okay...senior..."
"I will follow your arrangements."
