Headshot Wizard - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Mysterious Spell Factor

With the enameled iron wheels constantly rolling, the clean carriage slowly drove away from the lookout cliff in the early morning sea breeze. The mountain road is rugged but short, as if in the blink of an eye, the familiar and unfamiliar castle gradually disappeared from Lance’s eyes.

The carriage set foot on the country road and headed northward.

The old housekeeper and Lance sat in the carriage, and the old coachman drove the carriage skillfully, walking very smoothly.

“Master Lance, it will take about two days to start from Lookwind Castle and arrive at Rushing City.” The old butler said softly, “The road ahead will be more distant, and no one can accompany you on the road. You must take care of your body.”

Lance nodded.

On the slightly swaying carriage, he had nothing to do anyway, so he simply closed his eyes and began to meditate.

By now, Lance was very proficient in the mastery of secondary meditation. Simply inject the mental power into it, and the magic vortex slowly formed, and a little magic factor immediately got through.

Although his spell factor sensitivity is very low, but the speed of absorption is not slow, and it can more or less make up for some of the shortcomings in this area.

“I’m almost at the standard level of a beginner apprentice who just started. The magic power has just broken through to 33 points, which is more than half the distance from the 70 points of the advanced apprentice. If there is no way to find a way to quickly increase the magic power, I am afraid it will be very long. I stayed at the level of a junior apprentice for a while.” While meditating, Lance thought in his heart.

There are two levels of first-level wizards: elementary apprentice and advanced apprentice. The former means that you have just stepped into the world of wizards, while the latter is a chance to condense the magic pool and attack a wider field.

Only the increase of magic power can raise the wizard level, otherwise Lance’s mental power and physical quality will be useless.

Because most of the spells require strong magic power as a backing, and the requirements for spiritual power are much lower.

“In addition to magic, another problem I am facing now is that there is no magic to learn!”

If the problem of magic can be slowed down, then the second problem may be even more severe. As a qualified wizard, Lance has only mastered three spells so far: secondary meditation, magic guidance, and spell recognition.

These three spells are all auxiliary, without any means of attack.

The only spell that can hurt others is actually the spell attached to the Arcane Ring that was accidentally obtained from the demonized Frost Land Demon Lair.

Because of Amman’s accidental departure, no one can teach Lance low-level spells, which is why he can only embark on the journey early. Only by finding a real organization of wizards, can he continue to learn spells. Otherwise, groping alone, the result will definitely be nothing.

After a round of meditation, Lance’s magic power was stored again. This is the helplessness of the first-level wizards. They store their magic power in every corner of their bodies, and their capacity is very limited.

According to the “Magic Mechanics of Order and Chaos” learned by Lance, he knew that the human body is not actually the best storage place for magic. Because the flesh exuding the power of order will subconsciously reject the magical power full of chaotic power, the two cannot coexist well.

This is why in the later stages of advanced apprenticeship, wizards will begin to try to condense the magic pool. For the second-level wizards, they take the magic power out of the body and create a magic power pool in the part of the heart, which is specially used to save the magic power, so that it will be more convenient and faster when casting spells, and the magic power capacity that can be stored Will greatly improve.

…

After the meditation, Lance fell into a situation with nothing to do. He could only take out some books from the box boringly, but the carriage was a bit bumpy after all, and he was dizzy after a while.

He gave up the idea of reading a book to pass the time, and instead focused his gaze on the arcane ring in his hand.

At this time, the six spaces in the Arcane Ring had been filled with things by Lance. Valuables such as gold bars, weapons such as short bows, short swords, quiver pots, and other miscellaneous things were stuffed inside by him. As a result, the luggage he needs to take with him is just a small suitcase to make a look. It contains a few clothes and a few books, even if it is lost, there is no loss.

When Lance was appraising the Arcane Ring before, he had almost identified most of its functions. But there are still a small part of the function and structure that are not particularly clear.

“It can release an arcane every day, so where does its magic come from?”

For this question, Lance was puzzled.

His knowledge of magical items only stays at the lower level taught by Amman. It is not a problem to make some level 0 magic items, but the more difficult level 1 magic items are not that simple.

He used various methods to detect the power source of this ring, but the final structure failed.

And this time, he decided to try the last method.

“Although directly using mental power to detect this most rugged and oldest firm method may involve certain risks, in previous tests, the nature of this arcane ring was relatively mild and should not appear too much. Question.” With this mentality, Lance took the ring off his index finger and placed it on the palm of his hand.

He closed his eyes and slowly controlled his mental power to make contact with the arcane ring.

In an instant, he felt an incomparable breath!

“This kind of breath, yes, is the breath I felt by the lake that night.” Lance must have concluded in his heart.

This is the breath of the magic factor.

However, this magic factor is different from what Lance usually comes into contact with. Usually in the secular world, the four elemental magic factors are the most common, namely water, fire, earth and wind. It is a pity that these four elemental spell factors are not very friendly to Lance, that is, the sensitivity is below the average level.

And this magic factor was the first time Lance saw it.

Its color is jet black.

Although he closed his eyes, he could still feel with mental power that a naughty black magic element was constantly spinning around somewhere deep in the arcane ring.

“There should be any channel for this arcane ring to draw this black magic factor from a certain place across space.” Lance had a clear understanding in his heart, “No wonder it can cast an arcane every day.”

Understanding the power source of the Arcane Ring, Lance suddenly had another question in his heart.

“Since I can feel this black magic factor, does it mean that I can also absorb it?”

Do as you think, this is Lance’s style.

He silently used the magic power to guide several times, and circulated the magic power in his body several times around the limbs and hundreds of corpses. In this process, the magic power would naturally be consumed.

Ten minutes later, the original 33 points of magic power in Lance’s body were only 19 points left.

Lance stopped this act of squandering magic with satisfaction. To be honest, he had no choice but to do such a stupid thing. He has a magical power, but he doesn’t know any spells. It really hurts wizards.

…

The carriage continued to drive on the country road, and the old butler closed his eyes and made a low snoring sound, as if he had fallen asleep.

Lance placed the Arcane Ring in his palm, and once again activated the secondary meditation technique.

The faint magic vortex began to rotate again, but this time, Lance threw out all the common magic factors that had mixed in.

He only chose to absorb the black magic factors on the Arcane Ring.

The result surprised him. Those black magic factors didn’t seem to repel his absorption, but rather actively poured into his magic vortex.

In just ten minutes, forty or fifty black magic factors have been gathered under the magic vortex funnel.

Lance did not continue to absorb, but chose to try to transform these black magic factors.

“I don’t know how sensitive these mysterious magic factors are to my body…” Lance held a hint of hope in his heart.

Under his efforts, the columns of spell factors were slowly transformed into his exclusive magic power.

The ratio of black magic factors into magic power is——

Six to one!

Lance was overjoyed!

Among all the magic factors, this mysterious magic factor has the highest sensitivity to his body, and the ratio of transforming magic power has reached a level of six to one.

Although it is a little worse than the legendary witchcraft genius, three to one and four to one at every turn, compared to other types of magic factors, Lance is already very satisfied!

If he can continue to absorb this black magic factor, his cultivation speed will be much faster, and his magic power will increase faster.

“From twelve to one to six to one, my magic speed will be doubled!” Lance thought with surprise: “This time the schedule for impacting higher apprentices will be greatly shortened.”

He looked at the ring that exuded the mysterious dark purple brilliance, and his heart was filled with joy.

If he didn’t get this ring by chance, he might only be able to absorb the four common spell factors honestly.

In that case, his cultivation progress must be very slow, inferior to ordinary people.

“What is the origin of this black magic factor, I must find out.” Lance thought silently in his heart.

At this moment, Lance suddenly noticed that the lavender radiance of the arcane ring after he had absorbed a certain magic factor seemed to be dimmed.

(If something happens at night, update early.)
