GOR Chapter 19 "Beginning! The Path of Demons! "
Genius!
This guy is definitely a genius in magic research!
Du Wei had already made an evaluation of this captive magician in front of him! If this fellow was allowed to continue his research, perhaps one day he would be able to become a grandmaster of his generation!
However, what Du Wei was most concerned about right now was the problem of how to use potions to use magic.
When the magician mentioned the results of his countless efforts, he couldn't help but feel excited. Previously, he could only secretly reveal these results and couldn't share his life's greatest achievement with others, so he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Now that he finally spoke without any scruples, the magician's eyes couldn't help but shine. His face was full of pride, and he couldn't help but gesticulate excitedly:
"For someone like me, my mental strength, which is magic, is enough. But my perception is a little too weak. I can't feel the magic elements in the surrounding environment. Then, I thought, it's like a person with poor hearing. If the surrounding sound is low, he naturally can't hear it … … But, if the surrounding sound is very loud, very noisy! Then he might be able to hear it! "
Du Wei's eyes also lit up, and he immediately followed up: "So … … you thought of a way to use something extracted from potions to increase the amount of magic elements in the surrounding environment?"
"Yes! The most basic thing in fire magic is the 'fire element', but even the most brilliant magicians don't know what the 'fire element' is. Because everyone only knows how to use it, but they don't know what it is. And those flammable potions, since they can burn, it means that those potions also contain the 'fire element'! I made a hypothesis: My perception is too weak, so in the same environment, a person with strong perception can feel the surrounding magic elements, but I can't. Then … If I can increase the amount of magic elements in the surrounding environment to a certain degree, then even a person like me with a slow perception should be able to sense it! Then, wouldn't I be able to use magic? "
"And … … you did it?" Du Wei sighed.
"Yes!" The magician solemnly said: "I did many, many experiments. My main research direction is fire magic. I assumed that the flammable potions contained the element of fire. But how to extract these fire elements took me a lot of time. I left my teacher and came to the south alone. I had a small magic laboratory where I made a lot of refining tools. After a few years of research, I finally found it. "
Du Wei couldn't help but become excited. "You found the Fire Element … What exactly is the Fire Element?"
"… This, I don't know either." The Archmage couldn't help but feel a little helpless. "I've experimented with at least a hundred formulas and more than three hundred refining methods. Until a while ago … After I finished an experiment, I used a formula to extract something from a dozen plants and synthesized it into a kind of powder, a kind of black powder. Then … then, I suddenly felt it! "
"You feel it?" Du Wei raised his eyebrows.
"Yes! I can feel it! Originally, my magic senses were extremely sluggish and I couldn't sense any of the surrounding magic elements at all! "However, just as I was about to produce the powder, I followed my experimental procedures and used a blower that I had made myself to release the powder into the air … … I finally sensed it! I tried a Fire Magic and discovered that I could clearly feel the Fire Element pulsating in nature! I … … I actually succeeded! "
At this point, the magician was a little excited. "I started on the path of magic when I was thirteen years old and experienced a full twenty years! I could finally use magic … … Although, it was only the most insignificant and lowest level Fireball Spell! But, at that time, when I used magic to shoot that fist-sized Fireball Spell, I was so happy that I almost died. "
Du Wei looked at this guy's face and couldn't help but sigh. "So, that day in the tavern, when you were fighting with my people, the Fireball Spell was also … …"
"Yes." The Archmage nodded. "I carry some sealed bottles with me. Those bottles contain the powder I've refined. When I need to use magic, I'll use the hand hidden in my sleeve to gently open one of the bottles and expose the powder inside. Then, I'll be able to sense the presence of the fire element and use magic."
Strange method … … But this guy is really a genius!
But … … Du Wei suddenly thought of a question and his expression became a little strange. "Your qualification as a magician, you used this method to pass the test?"
The magician's face reddened. "I know, this method is equivalent to cheating. But my desire for the title of magician is really beyond my control. "
"I can understand this." Du Wei said. "But I find it strange. Why did you only take the test to become the lowest level magician? Since you have a talent for magic and have solved the problem of your senses, you should be able to take the test to become a higher level magician, right? "
"No, I can't do it." The captive shook his head. "Although my method solved the problem of my senses, but … … I immediately faced a new problem. And that problem, I have been racking my brains for a long time, but I still can't solve it. "
"What problem?" Du Wei was very concerned about this … … After all, whether or not he can learn and use magic depends on this guy.
"I've done some experiments. Although I've managed to extract the yellow powder that contains a lot of fire elements, my senses are too weak. So, even with such a rich fire element, I can only use the lowest level of fireball magic." The Archmage smiled bitterly: "Do you think I don't want to use a higher level magic? I even fantasized that if I can use my method to increase the fire elements in the surrounding environment … … then theoretically, I can even use the fire elements in the surrounding environment to continuously increase the fire elements in the surrounding environment! In the end, I might even be able to use the ultimate forbidden fire spell 'Raging Flames'! Becoming a forbidden spell magician, what kind of glory, what kind of achievement is that? If that's the case, I can almost jump to the top of the continent's magicians! "
His expression was very excited, but unfortunately, when he finished speaking, his tone became gloomy. "Unfortunately, my problem is … … my senses are very weak. So, if I want to use higher level fire magic, I can only use methods to increase the fire elements in the surrounding environment, and increase it again and again! The higher the concentration, the higher the level of fire magic I can use. But, you have to know, the yellow powder that I refined already contains a very high level of fire elements! I really can't think of any other way to increase the concentration of fire elements … … Moreover, I even did a rough calculation … … Even in such a high concentration of fire elements, I can only use the lowest level Fireball Spell … … Then, if I want to use intermediate level fire magic, at least the fire elements in the surrounding environment will have to be increased by tens of times! Tens of times! What kind of concept is that? Unless you directly throw me into a flame! Only in a flame would there be such rich fire elements! But if I do that, I will be burned to death first. "
"So … … Even if you overcome the difficulty of your senses, you can only use the lowest level of magic." Du Wei made a final conclusion.
"Yes."
"Then, what about your instantaneous spell?" Du Wei was still interested in this guy's method of continuously shooting fireballs without chanting.
"That is only an opportunistic trick in Potioneering." The magician was a little embarrassed. "My magic is not used by controlling the magic elements in nature, but by using the magic elements I made myself … … When ordinary magicians use magic, they have to use incantations to summon and search for the magic elements in the air … … But I, I don't need to summon or search, because the fire elements were in my sleeves … …"
Du Wei's expression finally changed!
If that's the case … … then … … if … … if!
If he can overcome the current problem and let this guy successfully use higher level magic … … he can also instantaneously cast it!!
Imagine, a magician who can release high level fire magic … … at the same time, he can instantaneously cast magic without chanting … … How powerful would he be!
Afterwards, Du Wei patiently chatted with this magician for a long time. Du Wei deliberately changed the topic to Potioneering. What made the magician surprised was that this young man was a noble. (Although the magician did not know what Du Wei's identity was at the beginning, but now, seeing that this young man could own such a large castle in the Rollin Plains, this young man was most likely a child of the famous Rowling family!)
A noble with such a noble status was proficient in Potioneering, which was looked down upon by people with status … … This was a rare thing.
However, this young noble was really well-versed in Potioneering! His erudition made the magician secretly admire him. Afterwards, when the atmosphere between the two of them became a little more harmonious, Du Wei finally spoke of his own experience: At that time, he wanted to become a magician, but was determined to have no talent and failed … …
Such an experience immediately aroused the sympathy of this captive! A feeling of sympathy for each other spontaneously arose.
This young noble also had a similar experience as himself! They were both filled with longing and desire for magic, they both discovered that they had no talent, the two of them were both born with outstanding magic, but their perception was poor!
Under such circumstances, although there were some disagreements between the two of them before, and he was now a captive, but from the bottom of his heart, the magician's disgust towards this young noble in front of him had decreased by a lot.
The other party had only thought of capturing him out of his thirst for magic.
At least, his determination to become a magician was so similar to his own.
"Solskjaer." Du Wei softly called the magician's name (In the conversation between the two of them, Du Wei already knew the name of this genius magician), he glanced at the magician: "Let me ask you a question … … Why do you want to become a magician? After becoming a magician, what do you hope to obtain? "
"… … This." Solskjaer thought for a bit: "A magician's vocation seems to be to inquire about the ultimate mysteries of magic, diligently research magic, and indulge in the mysteries of magic for a lifetime. But I'm destined to be unable to become a high level magician, so, whatever inquiring about the ultimate mysteries of magic doesn't have much to do with me … … So, I only want to obtain what I want. "
"You're talking about the status and treatment of a magician?" Du Wei smiled: "Your answer can be considered honest. And what you said is also correct. The treatment of magicians has always been very high, no matter where they go, a superb magician will always be the target of recruitment by those influential figures, and can obtain the highest treatment and respect … … But, don't forget, you're only the lowest level magician! There aren't any important figures who would spend a large amount of money to recruit a low level magician. "
Solskjaer was silent … … He was very clear that what Du Wei said was the truth. Although he had obtained the recognition of a magician's qualification, but as the lowest level magician, no matter where he went, he found that he wasn't as popular as he imagined.
At the beginning, when people found out that he was a magician, they were filled with shock and respect! But afterwards, when they found out that he was only the lowest level magician, their enthusiasm immediately dropped by ten times.
This was also the reason why Solskjaer had no choice but to suffer and join Ruo Lin's small unrated adventuring team! He actually really wanted to join a large mercenary group, but the others didn't think much of him.
Seeing Solskjaer's helpless expression, Du Wei knew that the time was about right, he smiled and said: "Solskjaer, since your dream is to obtain the treatment and respect of magicians, then, why don't you pledge your loyalty to me! You can become my personal magic consultant. I'll give you very good treatment! You want respect, status, and anything else you need, I can satisfy you. I believe you already know that I'm a member of the Rowling family. The name of the Rowling family shouldn't be an insult to you, right? "
Solskjaer's heart thumped!
Relying on this small aristocrat … … seemed like a pretty good choice. Although they had some conflicts before, the other party was only obsessed with magic, nothing more. Moreover, the conversation just now could be considered pleasant, and more importantly, this small aristocrat was the same as him, after the path of magic was hopeless, he turned to researching magic potions … … This kind of encounter, really made Solskjaer unable to help but give birth to a feeling of "bosom friends"!
Moreover, he could also become the magic consultant under the Rowling family and obtain generous treatment … … What was there to hesitate about?
"I … …" Solskjaer thought for a bit: "I'm willing to accept your invitation, but I need to make a trip to the south. My laboratory is in the south, I still have a lot of necessary tools, a lot of precious materials in the laboratory, as well as all kinds of powders I've refined, all of which need to be moved back. I have to do these things myself … … You also know that a magician's laboratory can't be moved by ordinary people. That's very dangerous. "
Du Wei thought for a bit: Letting him go back to the south wasn't a problem … … But this guy, he wouldn't want to take the opportunity to run away, right?
Moreover, this guy who cheated his way to the title of magician was now worth ten thousand gold in Du Wei's heart! There absolutely couldn't be a single mistake!
Immediately, Du Wei made a decision: "How about this, I'm also very interested in your laboratory, I'll go with you to the south!"
The future path of the Roland Fiend, from this day onwards, opened.
