[Part three, one more to go.]
The people around Salin could see that this was an illusion. Salin didn't even bother to destroy the illusion with thunder. The Elemental Magic Tower had stopped, and above the tower, huge metal gears appeared and began to spin rhythmically, forming a magic net.
"Truman, there are many magical beasts here. You can use them to practice magic." Salin's Elemental Eyes scanned the surroundings, and he saw hundreds and thousands of magical beasts gathering here.
"Yes, Teacher." Truman didn't fight in the Magic Tower. Instead, he summoned the Elemental Messenger and jumped out of the Elemental Magic Tower. Zola cautiously followed. After all, Truman was only a level-nine Mage. Fighting in such deep water, he had to divide a lot of strength to resist the water pressure.
This was more than the depth of most oceans. Ten miles, if it were an ordinary person, they would have been crushed into meat paste.
Unlike Salin, Truman didn't have a Water Elemental Body. He entered the lake and released his protective spell, Water Elemental Shield.
This was a variation of the Water Elemental Shield. It had no shape and was like an invisible energy shield, forming a human-shaped protective layer around Truman's body.
This kind of defense was not as good as Salin's Water Elemental Shield, but it was convenient, fast, and best at defending against pressure. As for its defense against sharp weapons, it was slightly weaker.
Salin didn't find any powerful creatures here, but the gathering of so many magical beasts showed something. Salin really wanted to train his student by letting Truman fight.
As soon as Truman left the Magic Tower, he took out the gold magic book. The gold magic book could store eighteen spells, from level-seven to level-nine, and could store six spells at each level. These six spells corresponded to the six major elemental spells. Truman wasn't Salin, who could cast all kinds of spells without restrictions, so the gold magic book was much more useful in his hands than in Salin's.
In the gold magic book, eighteen spells were released in sequence. Clouds of magic light lit up in Truman's hands, illuminating the dark area deep in the sea.
Salin watched the students fight in the Elemental Magic Tower, but Truman didn't waste any energy. He first used the gold magic book, and the eighteen powerful spells took care of the first hundred magical beasts that rushed up. Salin noticed that Truman didn't lock on to every target when he released his spells.
Doing so would save a lot of mental energy.
Only one powerful magic beast managed to escape the magic attack, but it was immediately hit by a spell released from Truman's magic staff. This time, Truman used his mental power to lock onto the target. This ninth level magical beast was a flat fish. It was more than ten meters long, and its mouth was filled with sharp teeth.
Truman's battle was like a musician's playing, extremely smooth.
Sarin sighed when he saw this. In this situation, the enemy was not very strong. It was time to use his own strength to solve the problem. Salin would only fight like this when the enemy was too strong. The Magic String was the foundation of survival, but not training regularly and only relying on equipment was the beginning of a disaster.
Salin was actually very familiar with The Truman Show's fighting style. He had been like this for a period of time. If he could use his equipment, he would never use his Magic Strings.
This was not a good habit. Salin smiled bitterly. He was too extravagant, causing his students to do the same. Unless Chu Men ventured out on his own and obtained great wealth, it would be detrimental to his growth.
Although Salin himself was not old, that was only on the surface. In the Goddess's temple, he had trained for more than a hundred years. The actual age of Truman was much younger than him. The passage of time brought about maturity in one's mind, which was something that no cultivation could replace.
"Master, Truman is fighting very well. Until now, he hasn't used the scrolls," Nelis said from the side.
Salin thought about it and agreed. He had prepared a lot of expendable equipment for all his subordinates on this trip to Lihai. There were at least two or three thousand scrolls in Truman's hands, if not ten thousand. Until now, Truman had not used them, which meant that this guy was also a miser.
Scrolls were not magic books. These things were a real waste of money. After a magician used them, they could be replenished, and they could be used for much longer than magic staffs. After Truman used the gold magic book to deal with the fiercest group of magical beasts, he took out the silver magic book and released eighteen spells, killing another group of magical beasts. Only then did he start using his own magic to fight.
Zola only held his sword and stood not far from Truman, ready to protect him at any time.
Truman's battles were boring and meticulous, but there was nothing worth appreciating. Zola felt that Salin's battles were interesting. They were rarely repeated and always had novel ideas. Salin was not like a research-type magician at all. His talent was vividly reflected in the battle.
"Eleanor, what do you think of The Truman Show?" Salin asked out of the blue.
"Hmm …" Eleanor really thought about it and said, "You and Teacher Jason are not alike at all."
Salin heard Eleanor's words and immediately had no doubts in his heart. It was a good thing that Truman was not like him. Just like how he and Jason had nothing in common, if Truman was like him, there would probably be no room for development.
No two people's fates would be the same. The inheritance of magic was originally in the process of constantly enriching. It was already lucky that he had learned his teacher's Water Flame Alchemy. When he becomes a higher level mage, the Truman Captains can learn a lot from him.
The following battle proved that Truman was a miser. After squandering the spells in the magic book, Truman began to fight with Icicle, which consumed the least energy.
Truman was good at fire and earth magic, but at the bottom of the lake, the power of water magic would be stronger.
Moreover, Truman's water magic was not weak. After all, Salin had explained water magic to him the most and liked to use Icicle as an example.
Among Truman's water magic, the most powerful was Ice Spear. The ice spear could be transformed into a fire dragon, and the fire dragon could be transformed into a Flash Spell, which could finally become a Dark Mark.
This was Truman's invention, and even Salin could not do it.
As for Icicle, Truman did not know lightning magic, but he had lightning mageweaths on the icicle, which was quite powerful in breaking through energy shields. Mages didn't like this kind of imitation learning, but it was the best way to save time in battle.
With the mental power ring, Truman dared to prepare hundreds of icicles at once. There were only a few thousand magical beasts besieging him, and most of them were far away. These hundreds of icicles could kill at least a hundred magical beasts at once. Most of the magical beasts in the water were not as good as the magical beasts on land, but once their defense was strong, it was difficult to shoot them, just like the Coiled Turtle.
"Master, it's about time, right?" Daniel saw that there were more and more magical beast corpses, and his hands were a little itchy. With Salin's help, he advanced to level-nine, but the road ahead was even more difficult. His talent was not as good as Ainphent's. Ainphent could definitely advance to level-ten, but Daniel always felt that his magic path had come to an end.
Therefore, he also liked to participate in these daily trivial matters.
"Idiot." Neris scolded at the side. Daniel looked at Neris as if he had been bullied. Neris said, "Now, Master is using the Magic Tower to hide everyone's power. This Magic Tower looks like a hard rock. Letting Truman go out is to lure more powerful guys. If everyone goes out to fight, what if that guy hides? Can you find him? "
Daniel lowered his head and did not argue with Neris. Neris did not continue to attack him. She only said, "There will be time for you to fight. Also, don't think that you can't advance."
Daniel's body shook for a moment, then returned to normal. He was afraid of Neris, but also a little resistant. Why was a summoned creature so important by Salin's side? But he did not dare to change this situation. Neris's strength was getting deeper and deeper. Now that she was in human form, she gave him more pressure than anyone else.
Therefore, he valued Neris's words more than anyone else. Neris said that he could still advance?
Salin smiled. "Daniel, you have followed me for a long time, and have done many things for Metatlin City. No matter how much it costs, I will find a way for you to advance to level-ten. But after level-ten, it is not something I can help you with. "
Daniel heard Salin's words and was both sad and happy. Sad because he had wasted a lot of time and opportunities in exchange for this sentence today. Happy because Salin did not give up on him, but continued to train him at all costs. It should be known that helping a necromancer advance to level-ten was ten times more difficult than nurturing an elemental mage.
The things necromancers needed were rarer than what elemental mages needed.
When necromancers advanced to level-ten, their lifespans would also become very long. After that, the advancement after that was indeed not something that outsiders could help. It was enough that Salin could help him advance to level-ten!
"Alright, the main character should appear." Salin raised his hand, indicating for everyone to stop talking and focus on observing the changes at the bottom of the lake.
The corpses of magical beasts were piled up like mountains. Although Truman's battles were very boring and ugly, he really saved magic strings, and his fighting strength was strong. With the help of the Elemental Emissary, one of his icicles could finish off a magical beast above level-four, but below level-six. The magical beasts in the lake were not of high levels, and their fighting strength mostly depended on their tyrannical bodies. But no matter how tyrannical their bodies were, they could not directly resist magic.
This was also Salin's first time seeing an Elemental Emissary participate in an actual battle. He did not expect the power of the magic booster to be so great, far exceeding his expectations. A level-one icicle could kill a level-four magical beast? In theory, it was possible. The Elemental Emissary had turned theory into reality.
When the icicles were released, they were ten times the size of normal icicles, and their power was also several times stronger. The speed of the icicles in the water was even faster than the speed released in the air.
