How could two people who were completely incompatible with each other cast a spell together?
According to Aishi's theory on mage education, this was impossible. Everyone was a mage by themselves, and it was already very difficult to combine magic power together. It required training from a young age, and it was best for twins … Indeed, there were mage branches that could combine magic, but the conditions were extremely complicated.
After all, magic casting was an extremely personal matter. It was just like how two authors and artists who created their own works forcefully put them together. It was the same as one using their left hand and the other using their right hand at the same time. Without enough coordination, they would only interfere with each other.
But in reality, Rorschach himself already had experience in successfully combining magic, which was why he was able to determine the feasibility of this plan.
"Relax, when Lori and I used God's Descent, it was actually a type of combined magic. Lori used divine power (magic power), and I was the mage. It's the same for us. We have two bridges. The first is the magic armor, and the second is … the God Equipment Book of Ten Thousand Spells. "
God Equipment were usually powerful weapons with their own existence. Using them required a soul-binding. But on the other hand, both of them had previously communicated with the God Equipment Book of Ten Thousand Spells. Even if Ariel currently didn't have the right to use the Book of Ten Thousand Spells, as long as she had Rorschach's authorization, the Book of Ten Thousand Spells wouldn't reject her.
And so, while Ariel had an expression of disbelief that said, "Are you kidding me?", Rorschach used a live demonstration to cast the spell step by step.
"The way I see it, magic casting isn't just a creation. It's also a project. First, we need a blueprint that matches the actual situation."
In the middle of the crowded room, a large book suddenly appeared and slowly flipped its pages.
It stopped on one of the pages. On that page, there was a light blue water bullet.
"The first spell will be used as a test. It doesn't need to be very powerful. We'll choose the 0-circle water bullet spell … If this goes wrong, we should still be able to die in one piece."
Rorschach didn't look at Ariel's reaction as he focused on casting the spell.
The pages of the God Equipment Book of Ten Thousand Spells flashed, and a 3D projection of a water ball was projected in midair.
It was an ordinary water ball, but various data and runes around it indicated that it was a spell model.
"See, if magic casting is a project, then spell models are our blueprints."
Under normal circumstances, rank 4 or 5 mages like Rorschach and Ariel could casually use any spell under 2-circle............ They didn't even need to construct spell models...........
...................................... But...................................................................
But on the other hand, perhaps it lowered his efficiency, increased his consumption, or slowed down his casting speed, but it made him more familiar with constructing spell models and more sensitive to the flaws in his "blueprints", which laid a solid foundation for him to learn high-circle spells in the future.
. The power of the 0-circle spell, Water Bullet, was about the same as a water balloon thrown by a naughty child. It was fine to use it to cool off for a moment on a hot summer day, but using it to injure someone would be ridiculous.
But right now, both Rorschach and Ariel, two powerful mages who could be called archmages in any world, were carefully constructing, inspecting, and reviewing this incredibly simple spell model.
Their careful attitude made it seem as if this wasn't a spell that any acolyte could learn. Instead, it was a forbidden spell that could destroy the heavens and earth.
That was because they knew that if there were any problems with the blueprint, then no matter how well they did in the future, they would only go further down the wrong path.
After repeatedly confirming that there were no problems with this simple blueprint, Rorschach finally turned his attention to the next step.
"Now that I've confirmed the blueprint, it's time to choose the construction unit and materials … It's you, Ariel!"
Ariel didn't know why Rorschach was suddenly so excited. She nervously took over the God Equipment Book, touched the pages, and poured her mana into the spell model.
After all, it was a 0-circle spell, so the spell model couldn't be any simpler. Ariel's mana quickly overflowed into it.
But this didn't mean that the spell was complete. It only meant that Ariel had left her mark on the spell model. She took over the right to use the spell model from Rorschach.
The next step was no longer Rorschach's responsibility, although he still had to hold his hands and vaguely maintain the stability of the spell model.
"Tessa, activate the magic link. Supreme Magic Amplification Mode, Supreme Magic Range Mode, and Silver Light Damage Mode."
After taking over the spell model, Ariel linked it with the magic armor, Red Lotus.
[0-circle elemental spell Water Bullet confirmed. Magic module activated. Calculating consumption. Amplification of spell power by 300 Carvel, Range Increase of 100 Carvel, Silver Light Damage Increase of 50 Carvel. Overall calculation result: consumption is about 410 Carvel (30% fluctuation). Load: 37%. Do you want to activate the release procedure?]
The car's AI didn't hide anything from Rorschach. Hearing the feedback, Rorschach was both happy and surprised.
He was happy because the principle seemed feasible, but he was also surprised because of the terrifying consumption.
The maximum output of a typical third-generation magic armor was thirty to forty Kcal, and the fifth-generation magic armor was only about seventy Kcal. This fifth-generation magic armor could produce more than four hundred Kcal per spell, and the load was not even half of it. It was a little scary.
"Is the energy reserve enough? It won't be destroyed after one or two shots … "
Rorschach had done some research on magic armors. The maximum output didn't mean the normal output, and most of the magic power wouldn't be consumed instantly, just like how heat would be released slowly in the tense muscles.
The maximum output was only used to indicate the limit of the instantaneous burst, just like how it was impossible for the human body to keep all the muscles tight all the time. If it was really played like this, forcibly maintaining the maximum output would cause the magic armor (human body) to be destroyed before the magic power was exhausted.
Looking at the total amount of magic power in the magic pool, Rorschach was relieved when he saw that the consumption of more than 400 Carvel didn't exceed 3%.
"As expected, poverty has limited my imagination. The nickname 'Mobile Mage Tower' isn't wrong …"
"Rorschach, it's starting! Why are you still in a daze? "
Ariel's shout brought Rorschach back to reality. Looking at the internal casting crystal that was extracting his magic power and mental strength, Rorschach focused.
"Evocation spell, water elemental magic, 0 circle, water bullet spell activated."
"Evocation spell, water elemental magic, 0 circle, water bullet spell activated."
The magic armor changed into casting mode. The moment the cockpit opened, the magic armor, Rorschach, and Ariel raised their hands at the same time. A silver ray of light flew across the water at a low altitude.
This silver ray of light was just like a meteor that streaked across the sky. The wind it created directly split the ocean, and the water along the way splashed up waves more than three meters high.
The moment before the spell was cast, the ray of light was still in the hands of the two of them. The next second, the distant ship exploded, indicating that the ray of light had successfully hit its target.
At this moment, Rorschach, who suddenly felt empty and tired, smiled.
"It would seem that we've survived yet again."
"No, it's still too early to say that. There's more than one person chasing after us."
"… No, what I mean is that it's already quite good that we didn't get blown away on the spot."
"Why do you keep emphasizing this? Can I ask how confident you were before this, and what was the success rate?"
"Are you sure you want to know?"
The two of them casually joked around for only a few seconds. After the explosion, the waves, and the mist dissipated, the seemingly undamaged pirate ship caused everyone's expressions to become quite ugly.
Meanwhile, the light blue octagonal force field shield flickered with a powerful force field, as if it was mocking the pirates for not having enough firepower.
"… The Thor III ship's force field shield. These bastards actually dared to misuse the most advanced military equipment! That's an experimental product that hasn't even been officially installed yet. "
The one who recognized the target at a glance and was full of complaints was the seemingly harmless merchant, Liu Yuxi.
It would seem that he had been observing Rorschach and Ariel's casting of spells the entire time.
Hearing this, Rorschach laughed. Finally, he was the first to be unable to hide the truth.
