Chapter 197: Raising the Ring and Casting Spells
Hence, Gothe tried to disband the magic pet.
He just thought, and the six-pointed star array appeared again.
The star array enveloped Flora, flashed away, and disappeared with her.
According to the spell description: You can temporarily dismiss your familiar. At this time, it will enter a small plane and wait for your re-summoning.
Flora should have entered a small plane exclusively for her now.
Gothe once again consumed the liquid mana in his body and cast [Get Demonic Pet+].
The six-pointed star array appeared again and brought back Flora.
Flora in the form of a bulging air.
"What's wrong?" Gao De felt guilty for no reason.
"Mage, it's very dark and small inside. I don't like it."
"Then I won't go there."
Like a child doodling in a notebook.
Flora doesn’t like the small plane of [obtaining a magic pet+].
According to her, it was a small room.
Hence, Gothe did not choose to take Flora back to the small plane.
Fortunately, the familiar can act independently and does not need to follow the mage.
And even if you follow him, Flora, who is the size of a finger, is indeed not difficult to carry
At any rate, after coaxing the irritated Flora, Gothe looked at the time, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
The second floor of the library is now closed.
But Gaode, who was still in a very high state of mind and in high spirits, was somewhat unable to take any time off.
He thought for a while and finally decided to leave the dormitory and go to the college's spell testing ground.
He was going to get familiar with the spell abilities of a first-level mage.
After being promoted to a first-level mage, compared with the mage apprentice stage, a big gap is that you have gained the ability to cast spells at a higher level.
It is still a private room rented for half an hour.
It's just that this time as an official mage, the cost of the private room suddenly increased from 5 silver to 1 gold now, which made Gothe feel a lot of heartache.
You get what you pay for, and the corresponding change is that the private room space has become significantly larger, and the trial puppets are also more durable.
Gothe aims at the trial puppet and casts [Frost Bite] normally, which he has previously mastered but has not yet verified its specific power.
A quarter of the liquid mana in the body was lost in an instant.
The trial puppet also gave timely feedback at this time.
Freezing damage, attack power 6 degrees.
Normally casting a trick only consumes 1/4 drop of liquid mana. My current total mana is 20 drops of liquid mana, which means that I can cast 80 tricks. After getting the accurate number, Gao De breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt that his "phobia of insufficient mana" was finally cured.
"Try raising the ring to cast the spell again." Gaode secretly said.
The so-called level-up spell casting means using a high-level mage level to cast low-level spells.
For example, Gothe is now a first-level mage, and when he casts a trick, he can choose between normal casting and level-up casting.
When cast normally, the effect of the cantrip is no different from that performed by the mage's apprentice.
As for raising the ring to cast spells, the power of the magic will be correspondingly increased.
It is still [Frost Bite].
But this time, Gaode directly consumed 1 drop of complete liquid mana.
The trial puppet gives timely feedback:
Freeze damage, attack power 12 degrees.
The mana consumption has been increased from 1/4 drop of liquid mana to 1 drop of liquid mana, but the power has only doubled. Gaode secretly said that he did not feel it was unreasonable.
This is a bit like the fuel consumption of a car. Compared with the speed of improvement, fuel consumption generally increases exponentially, rather than proportionally.
But no matter what, the increase in spell power is obvious.
Of course, there is an upper limit for leveling up and casting spells, and it is impossible to increase the level infinitely.
General magic can only be performed three times, which is already the limit.
For example, [Frost Bite] has a normal power of 6 degrees. When a level 1 mage casts a spell, the power of [Frost Bite] will be increased to 12 degrees.
When a second-level mage raises his level and casts a spell, it will be raised to 18 degrees, and when a third-level mage raises his level and casts a spell, it will be 24 degrees.
But 24 degrees is the ultimate power that [Frost Bite] can achieve.
Even if you are a fourth-ring mage or a fifth-ring mage, it is impossible to increase the power of [Frost Bite] as a sleight of hand.
Subsequently, Gothe tried other spells that had not been tested before one by one.
【Poison Gas Spray】, poison damage, attack power 10 degrees, double the power of spell casting.
【Blade Explosion】, force field damage, attack power of 6 degrees, double the power of spell casting when the ring is raised.
【Moonlight Arrow】, radiant damage, attack power of 4 degrees, the power under moonlight is increased to 6 degrees, and the magic power of upgrading the ring is doubled.
【Death Knell】, necrotic damage, attack power of 8 degrees, triggers the prerequisites, the attack power will be increased to 12 degrees, and the power of rising magic will be doubled.
In addition to increasing the power, ring-raising spells may also have other effects.
For example, if the attack power of the magic damage king [Magic Explosion] is ten degrees, the power of the magic blast will not be doubled, but an extra ray will be added.
In addition to damage spells, many other tricks also have the possibility of raising the level to cast spells.
Like [Water Creation], every time the spell is raised, the amount of water it creates will increase by 2 gallons.
Of course, this does not mean much to most mages.
Normal casting uses 1/4 drop of liquid mana to create two gallons of water, while the Ascension Mage uses 1 drop of liquid mana to create 4 gallons of water.
It would be better to cast the spell twice normally.
Same effect, but save half the mana.
But for Gaode, it is of great significance.
- [Water Making +] can only be "drawn" by casting the spell for the first time every day.
Casting a spell by raising the ring is equivalent to guaranteeing that once you win a prize, the reward will be doubled.
After some testing, Gothe left the spell testing ground with satisfaction.
He truly understood what Master He Xi said. In the mage world, it is generally accepted that fighting across the ring is almost impossible.
Not to mention that high-level spells are much more powerful than low-level spells.
Just this level-up magic spell and the abundant magic power of the high-level mage are enough to make the high-level mage suppress the low-level mage.
He had no idea how he, the mage apprentice, could defeat his current self.
So, how powerful is the rune construct?
There is actually a chance to smooth out the huge gap between the levels of mages and make it possible to fight across the ring
Gothe couldn't help but think.
Back to the first area again.
Gaode suddenly remembered that his "first draw of the day" had not yet taken place.
He immediately came to the kitchen, raised the ring and cast [Water Making +].
There have been enough good things today, so Gaode didn't have any more expectations and just took a twitch out of habit.
But unfortunately, good things happened again.
The familiar yet unfamiliar light fragrance appeared in the clay pot.
Water without leaks.
Four gallons in total.
Not long.
Gaode went up to the second floor with a small glass of water without leakage.
The little thing who calls herself Flora is lying on a page that is much bigger than her, staring curiously with big eyes compared to her height.
Gaode glanced at it.
These are the course notes I took when I was studying "Cultivation of Magic Plants".
Seeing Gothe come back, Flora raised her head and asked in confusion: "Mage, do you humans grow grass like this?"
