Because Mage's Derivative Spell was very powerful and could be transformed into any shape, the magic apprentices' first reaction was to make the Hand of Magic into a dome or umbrella shape to block their heads.
It was indeed a temporary relief from the rain.
Roland, however, smiled in the pavilion and didn't think it was a good idea.
It was true that Hand of Magic could be transformed into other shapes, but it would consume mana if it was summoned all the time. Even though the consumption was low, it couldn't be used for a long time.
Even Roland would lose one-sixth of his mana if he kept a Hand of Magic of the same size up for a night with the double mana regeneration effect of Roland's Zeal.
It was needless to say that the magic apprentices didn't have as high a mana growth as Roland's and their levels were lower than Roland's.
It would be impressive if they could last three hours.
Besides, the clouds in the sky were thick, and the rain wouldn't stop any time soon.
The magic apprentices took out food from the waterproof canopies in the carriages and ate slowly.
However, they felt that something wasn't right after they stood for a while.
It had been almost an hour, and all of their mana had dropped by half, but the rain showed no sign of stopping.
More importantly … they were already feeling sleepy.
It was estimated that their Hand of Magic would disappear in an hour or so, and they would definitely be soaked in the rain.
Besides, even if the Hand of Magic they summoned could last for a night, did it mean that they didn't need to sleep?
The ground was wet everywhere. If they didn't take a rest at night, it would be hard for them to travel the next day.
The magic apprentices all felt that it wasn't good.
As an old man, Jerry had much more life experience than the other magic apprentices.
He looked at the pavilion.
The rainy night was dim, but the bright ball of light hanging above the pavilion illuminated the surroundings as if it were daytime.
Even the long cries of owls in the rainy night were not scary at all. Together with the sound of the rain, there was only a deep and peaceful silence.
Roland was sitting on a rough stone chair made of Mud for Stone, his body straight and in a daze.
In fact, Roland was browsing the forum, but the apprentices, including Andonara, thought that Roland was meditating.
This was because when Roland was resting, his magic power would quickly gather, which was a special effect of meditation.
Jerry looked at the huge stone pavilion with fascination.
This kind of divine control of ordinary magic, this kind of skillful and skillful way of doing it, he was shocked by the celestial being.
He had never thought that the Mud to Rock spell could be used in this way. In his impression, this spell was only used to block enemies.
Also, he was not dissatisfied with Roland's decision to drive them into the rainy night and let them solve the problem of shelter by themselves.
It could even be said that Roland's actions were exactly what a magic tutor should have.
Roland was also the most responsible chairman that Jerry had ever seen in his sixty years of life.
Therefore, Jerry was very serious about this study tour. He did not want to affect the president's opinion of him because of any small mistakes.
If possible, he hoped that he could learn and grow under the tutelage of this young genius mage for the rest of his life.
Even though he was already in his sixties.
He looked at Roland with admiration for a while, then turned around and walked to his colleagues, before he said in a low voice, "If this goes on, all of us will be soaked in the rain. Also, we can't sleep, so we have to make changes. "
Standing in a circle, Vivian frowned and asked, "How? We may not have enough magic power to last until the rain stops."
"So, we have to work together, like when we helped people build a dock in Delpon a few months ago."
Vivian's eyes glittered. "You have an idea?"
Jerry nodded and shared his idea. The eyes of the other five magic apprentices shone brighter and brighter.
In the end, they separated. Vivian and Domingo untied the horses and drove them aside, before they tied the ropes to a tree.
Of course, seeing that, the coachmen who were resting in the pavilion immediately came to help. They were not very important, and they were hired, so they did not dare to let the young masters finish the job.
After the horses were tied, Vivian and Domingo pulled the carriages with Hand of Magic and surrounded them in a circle that was about four meters in diameter.
Very soon, Jerry and the other three also came back from the surroundings. They brought back a lot of long branches. Using Hands of Magic, all the leaves on the branches fell off. Then, the branches were placed horizontally in front of the car by Hands of Magic. Very soon, a simple wooden frame was formed above their heads.
In the end, Jerry and the other apprentices took out the tents from the carriages and spread them on the shelf, before they pressed the corners with a few stones.
Soon, a simple waterproof tent appeared.
The six magic apprentices heaved a sigh of relief as they listened to the continuous pattering of raindrops above their heads.
But it was not over yet. The six of them began to dig the soil with Hand of Magic at the same time. Very soon, they dug a huge pit.
The soil was piled up next to the pit and compacted into a round, waterproof wall that was one and a half meters tall.
They continued to dig. After digging half a meter deep, the soil was finally dry. Then, they dug the pit, which was about two meters in diameter, to one meter deep. Then, they took down the dried branches that they had prepared earlier and threw them into the fire pit in the middle of the pit.
At this point, the other five apprentices had almost run out of magic power, but Jerry still had some left.
He transformed Inferior Fireball into a spurting gun and roasted the dry branches. The water vapor on the dry branches was quickly evaporated, and they were finally set ablaze after a burst of smoke.
Looking at the blazing fire and feeling the warmth of the fire dispelling the chill in their bodies, the six magic apprentices stood at the bottom of the dry pit and listened to the pitter-patter of rain around them. For some reason, they felt a sense of security in their hearts.
Roland appeared next to the pit at some point, and a magic shield blocked him from the rain. He looked at them and smiled. "Well done."
All the magic apprentices were excited and happy to be praised by Roland.
Andonara stood next to Roland, holding a blue transparent umbrella in her hand.
It was made by Roland with Hand of Magic.
Andonara said in admiration, "If I had a few teammates as smart as you, I wouldn't have had such a hard life as a mercenary."
Roland said, "Mages should try to make use of their abilities to create a comfortable environment. Personally, I believe that Mages are born to live a comfortable life. "
"What would you do if you were as good as them?" asked Andonara curiously.
Roland pointed at a lot of trees not far away. Their trunks were quite thick at the bottom, and many of them were one to two meters in diameter.
"I'll use Mage's Hand to dig a hole in the tree trunk big enough for me to hide in. It would be much easier than digging a pit. "
