Chapter 504 Opening the Magic Guild
It doesn’t cost money anyway, so Xu Lai copied all the spells that he had not copied before into his spell book.
Like the first-level earth-type body-protecting stone skin, it can greatly increase the physical defense ability, but it will also reduce the sensitivity at the same time.
There are also bloodthirsty thaumaturgy, evil curse possession, exorcism, and the ship summoning technique that can directly summon an unmanned ship in the wild, etc.
Despite the low level of these spells, if used well, they can also have unexpected effects.
The effect of the second-level spells is even more obvious, such as the thunderbolt ice that Xu Lai once used, and the fire wall spell that he can finally release by himself, which can directly remove obstacles such as horses and iron caltrops, etc.
Level 3 spells often have the ability to change the situation, such as amnesia that can greatly reduce long-range troops, increase the level of water spells, and directly make long-range troops unable to attack.
The joyful encouragement that can replenish morale when morale is low.
The damage is huge and the number of fireballs is dense.
Earthquakes that can cause damage to city walls and city defense weapons, etc.
Once the strategic spell reaches level 4, it does not change the situation, but may directly change the outcome of a war without corresponding restraint or protection.
For example, the Doomsday Judgment carried on Xu Lai’s Doomsday Blade.
Three level 4 spells, namely the fire-based Madness, the air-based chain lightning, and the earth-based Time and Space Gate.
Xu Lai happens to have intermediate wisdom, which means he has the ability to independently copy and release level 4 strategic spells.
So, Xu Lai was able to copy all three level 4 spells into his spell book.
From now on, even if he accidentally uses the scroll of the Gate of Time and Space, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to return home.
Xu Lai has never used it before, but he has been lucky enough to see it, and it has caused a lot of unnecessary damage to his own side.
If that female devil had been bolder, gotten closer, and controlled all his mage troops at once, the outcome of that day's battle might have been rewritten.
Crazy, it can make the enemy's troops lose their minds and attack the nearest friendly troops crazily, so it is called crazy.
The last chain lightning is a spell with powerful lethality that is comparable to the Doomsday Judgment.
Chain lightning starts from a target and attacks enemies in random directions in front, back, left, and right of the target one by one.
Compared to the Doomsday Judgment, the targets that chain lightning can attack must be much smaller, so the damage will be more terrifying.
Furthermore, the Doomsday Judgment attacks all enemies without distinguishing between friends and foes. Although the chain lightning does not distinguish between friends and foes, as long as the mage casting the spell is not stupid, it will definitely be released into the center of the enemy.
In this way, no matter how the chain lightning jumps, it will be difficult to jump into one's own camp.
Even if you can still jump back in the end, the damage of chain lightning will decrease after each jump.
After passing one enemy after another, even if you can jump back, there won't be much damage left.
If this spell is used well, ordinary heroes or commanders, no matter how high their health points are, will generally not be able to withstand it.
Xu Lai didn't have any Qi spell bonus, and the chain lightning he copied was already very terrifying.
[Chain Lightning]: A level 4 strategic spell that consumes 200 mana points and can hit targets with units with mental values*1+1.
Chain lightning will cause mental value * 30 + 20 points of damage to the first target, and each subsequent target will reduce the damage by 30 points.
Xu Lai's current mental value is 47 points, which means that it can theoretically cause 1410 points of damage to the first target. After that, every time the chain lightning jumps to the surrounding people, the damage will be reduced by 30 points.
Until the 48th jump, it can only cause the final 20 points of damage.
1410 points and 20 points, there is a huge difference in damage, and this is even when Xu Lai does not have any Qi spell bonus.
The mana consumption of Doomsday Judgment is 500 points, but with the ultimate fire effect, it can save 75% of mana consumption, so Xu Lai only costs 125 mana points once.
Can be released several times without wearing a mana amulet.
According to the standard of Doomsday Judgment, if it is the ultimate Qi spell, then the damage of the first shot can be at least doubled, which means it can cause at least about 3,000 points of damage.
The key 200 points of mana consumption can be reduced to only 50 points. Judging from the mana reserves of the mage heroes in the tower, they can be released at least dozens of times.
Thoros, the tower hero who took good care of Xu Lai in Stone Castle, had a talent for chain lightning.
The power of the chain lightning released through his hands is even more terrifying than the ultimate energy spell.
Coupled with the opponent's extremely high mental and intelligence values, perhaps the damage of the first shot of chain lightning will exceed 5,000 points.
If it was such a horrific injury, let alone ordinary heroes, even Xu Lai would not be able to bear it.
Ultimate resistance adds two anti-magic treasures, but it can offset 40% of the damage. There are still 3,000 points left. After the mysterious belt is reduced, there are still 2,000 points left.
Xu Lai's physique is extremely high and he can resist more magic damage than others.
But even if the physical resistance is removed, it can still cause more than 1500 points of damage to Xu Lai.
Unless Xu Lai thought of a way to get another unicorn beast to come over, he had never seen the relevant buildings in the wild, and his refugee camp had not produced anything good for two consecutive months. If the unicorn's anti-demon aura was there, Xu Lai might be lucky enough to survive.
Of course, he also has a 40% chance of directly resisting this spell.
The probability is only 40%, which seems high, but even if it is 99.99%, it cannot be considered insurance.
Because as long as he wins, for Xu Lai, it is 100%.
"Is the Magic Guild open to the outside world?"
There are quite a few mages and heroes in Qingfeng City now.
Ordinary mages cannot learn strategic spells, but like Su Ya before, they can learn simplified versions of spells converted from strategic spells.
Furthermore, Kaunaston Castle is only a level 3 magic guild, and it costs so many gold coins to copy a spell.
As a level 4 magic guild, it would be easy to accept an appropriate increase in the transcription price.
"Not yet. Only mages who join our Qingfeng City Magic Guild are allowed to learn."
Xu Lai asked curiously: "So, what are the benefits and obligations of joining our magic guild in Qingfeng City?"
Nofa smiled and said: "I was about to explain it to you.
According to the tradition of the imperial magic world, after joining the local magic guild, you must fulfill certain obligations.
I will assign these obligations to suitable mages in the form of tasks. >
For example, go to the academy in the territory to teach apprentices and young children with magical talents
As I mentioned before, installing investigative eyes and true seeing eyes for the magic guild and the base camp is not free labor.
In addition, when necessary, such as Qingfeng City being attacked, the mages of the magic guild are obliged to provide us with spell support.
Accordingly, they have paid their obligations, and we should also provide corresponding rights.
In addition to sharing the spells recorded by the magic guild with them, we also need to give them a certain amount of compensation for their work and provide some daily subsidies. "
Xu Lai nodded and said: "It's a very reasonable distribution method, so how much are the rewards and subsidies? ”
Nofa thought for a while and said: "According to the standards of other local magic guilds, if access and transcription permissions can be opened, not only can we not need financial support from the city hall, but we can also provide you, the lord, with a lot of gold coins."< br>
Xu Lai smiled and said: "It seems that you also support the opening of the magic guild?"
Nofa smiled and said: "As a mage, especially someone like me who has no background, As a mercenary who doesn't even have a serious teacher, what he most hopes to see is that a city can open a magic guild.
As a level 4 magic guild, once it is opened, it will be attractive to the entire empire. It will be quite amazing.
Of course, if you have concerns, we can also only open the first and second levels of spells, but this will be difficult to attract high-level mages.”
Xu Lai asked again: "According to your estimate, if we open the third and fourth levels of spells, how many gold coins can we receive every month?"
Nofa shook his head and said: "I really don't know this. It is estimated that not many people will come to copy high-level spells in the early stage, but after the reputation of our level 4 magic guild spreads, more and more people will come.
And, our magic guild will appear.
Recently, I have also discussed with the mages in the guild that the price of copying a general level 3 spell is already about 10,000 gold coins.
Fireball, Amnesia, Joy, etc. are all high-value level 3 spells. The gold coins you need to copy once are between 20,000 gold coins and 50,000 gold coins at least.
As for level 4 spells, except for the magic guilds in the capital and towers, our empire was rarely open to them in the past.
What's more, each of our level 4 spells can change the battlefield situation.
In my opinion, a level 4 spell is priced at least 100,000+ each.
If you are interested in opening up, I can ask members to mobilize their friends to determine the specific quotations for these spells. "
Xu Lai smacked his lips and said: "Then if someone comes to copy all the level 3 spells and level 4 spells, wouldn't it cost hundreds of thousands at least? ”
Nofa smiled lightly and said: "That's the price of a strategic spell. This kind of spell can only be released by heroes. The value is of course different.
For such a business, it is amazing to be able to close one or two orders a month. Yes, it's usually ordinary mages who do the copying.
They are not of a level, so even if I open the level 4 spell, they can't release it.
Of course, they will usually copy it in advance, just because of the price. , maybe one digit less than strategic spells.”
“That’s tens of thousands. A dozen of these mages a month is a lot of money.
That's it, let's do it, you immediately start the opening of the magic guild.
I will not impose any specific restrictions, but the price must be controlled. ”
