Chapter 986 968. Speculation
Lan En fought against the mages many times, but they were basically concentrated on the Battle of Sodden Mountain.
The attacks from the southern mages rained down like raindrops.
Those mages basically seemed crazy in order to evacuate to a safe area alive without being liquidated by the country.
Completely ignoring the dangerous nature of chaos magic, he released spells with overload.
Of course, the same goes for the mages in the north.
In that battle, the obstruction caused by the southern mages to Lan En was probably greater than the choking smoke on the battlefield.
On the one hand, the mages transferred by Nilfgaard are mostly at very low levels, even those who have not graduated from the magic academy, and they focus on one thing.
This was the decision made by the then Nilfgaardian commander Menno Culhorn after being tricked tactically by Lane.
It is a decision that is deliberately guided.
On the other hand, although there are only about twenty mages in the northern countries, all of them are great mages.
Although the gap between the title of Archmage may be larger than that of Archmage and Apprentice.
But the Archmage is the Archmage, and the spell casters of the northern countries suppressed the other party's spell casters very well.
So when Lan En faced those spells flying around on the battlefield, he basically scanned them with his [spiritual vision], and then Alondette, filled with the divine power of the Lady of the Lake, followed his line of sight.
The spell disappears.
Most of the spell structures of those Nilfgaardian mages are not advanced, so it is extremely easy for Lan En to destroy them.
But this is no reason to underestimate the fireball skills of warlocks.
Lan can easily 'cut' a fireball, but if he were to be hit head-on without reacting, he would probably have to suffer serious injuries.
A mage's fireball at a normal level, hitting a soldier wearing standard armor, should be enough to blow up the armored human body.
Even fragments of the armor are enough to fly out, causing secondary fragmentation damage to the surroundings.
In the manor of Duke Stysa of Temeria, a former big man, the mage butler was holding a fireball ready to go off in the corridor, and then he was disturbed by Lan and the fireball went out of control.
In the explosion, the butler himself and a knight in heavy armor were blown to pieces on the spot.
The high-quality armor worn by knights is expensive. If ordinary people slash it casually with a sword, it will basically leave white marks and small dents, but the armor cannot be cut through at all.
It was blown into fragments like a grenade, knocking over everyone in the corridor.
This is the most common fireball technique among mages.
In this world, the common reasons why mages are defeated are mostly 'unprepared', 'being sneak-attacked', 'surprised', 'being restrained', and 'unable to react'. The rare reasons are 'insufficient destructive power' .
How about saying 'noble mage' or 'lowly demon hunter'?
We are both users of dangerous chaos magic, but the difference in treatment is visible to the naked eye.
And now.
“咻~”
Lan En raised his eyebrows and whistled cheerfully.
"If Vesemir sees this, tsk tsk."
The demon hunters of the Wolf School probably never dare to imagine that they can have this kind of spell power. They [Igni Sign 】The highest output is the level of a Mars spray gun.
It takes more than two seconds to burn the monster's fur. Even if it doesn't burn through, the muscles under the monster's fur won't matter.
The effect of the spell fireball is completely beyond the specifications for a demon hunter who can only use some magic tricks.
"It seems that I am also a spell caster."
Lan En smiled easily, and on the retina, Mentos's data collection for this spell cast has also been completed.
“During this casting process, the subject’s physiological fluctuations are as follows. The heat fluctuation data of the spell fire is being exported.”
Biochemical Intelligent Brain speaks in the British butler’s accent that usually sounds quite stylish. Said.
Of course, if the biological brain wants to choke people, this tone will also make Lan En particularly angry.
No problem, it’s your choice.
Lan En glanced at it and immediately noticed the difference between spell casting and seal casting.
"The chaotic magic power in my body has not been consumed, but the intensity of the brain waves has weakened slightly. Does the spell consume the spirit?"
Mentos quickly blew a rainbow fart upwards.
"Accurate understanding, sir. The release of the spell fire seems to be similar to your reaction when you used the [Block] combat skill. They consume the same energy - the spirit of the releaser. ”
"In the world of fire, this should be called [Soul Power]."
Lan En nodded, this is not a big deal.
The demon hunter's chaotic magic power relies on the body. With his physical quality, it is no big deal to cast nearly ten seals in a row now, and he recovers very quickly.
The spirit is not easy to recover and can only be restored through activities such as meditation, sleep, and rest.
But after Lan En installed the [Song Gland] on himself, his mental recovery speed was also very fast.
If in the subsequent augmentation surgery of the Space Marine, a [nerve node] is implanted in the occipital foramen of the back of the head.
Then this enhanced organ will be able to adjust the original law of brain rest of the Space Marines, so that the human brain can sleep and rest alternately between the left and right hemispheres like a dolphin.
At that time, his mental recovery speed will directly increase exponentially. Next, the biological intelligence brain pointed out to the subject the points that could be improved during the casting process, as well as various minor mistakes, just like when Lan En practiced the spell before.
This ability to summarize, summarize, and correct mistakes is the source of the super learning ability of the citizens of the Interstellar Era.
Fireball, as the most basic spell, does not involve many knowledge points, and Lan En is also making very rapid progress in mastering the knowledge in the Great Swamp spell book.
Among Onuma's basic spells, if you look back you will find that the spells not only include the burning and control of flames, but also some other techniques.
For example [spraying poisonous mist], [violent sweating], [violent oily sweat].
These spells do not superficially involve fire.
But in actual experience, Lan En was keenly aware of the things beneath the surface of these spells.
On the palm of Lan En's left hand, the erratic flame first rose up, and the heat caused the air to make an explosion.
The operation of the spell has its own process, but Lan En has already turned on [Spirit Vision], observing the transformation of the spell flame under the spell throughout the process.
When the flames swelled to the size of a palm, Lan En slapped his left hand to his chest without hesitation.
This is a completely different feeling from casting [Fireball].
The power in his body gathered in his left hand and became the fire of the spell. After the magic fire was transformed into a spell, it was shot into his chest and began to work.
The transformation of heat became clear to Lan En's perception like never before.
After the flames of the spell entered the body, a burst of white mist suddenly burst out from Lan En's body surface.
This white mist covers the whole body, a layer about ten centimeters thick, fitting the contours of the human body.
"[Spell·Violent Sweating]."
Lan En muttered while clenching his fists, jumping around, and doing various adaptive activities.
[Violent Sweating] is a spell that incorporates fire into the body and uses the water mist caused by sweating to greatly resist high-heat damage.
But Lan En could see clearly that if the layer of water mist less than ten centimeters thick on the body could really significantly reduce the damage caused by high heat, that would be damning.
"Unless the 'water mist' is not just 'water mist'."
Lan En's head and face are also wrapped in white mist, and miraculously it does not affect his vision. .
[Spirit Vision] This layer of white fog can be observed directly.
"The large amount of sweat is indeed the media, but the thing that reduces the damage of high heat is hidden deeper."
Within a few breaths, the white mist on Lan En's body gradually faded until it disappeared.
This is also the first time he has cast this spell.
The [Fireball] that releases the flames, and the [Intense Sweating] that absorbs the flames into the body.
The two basic spells of the spell, only the first time they are cast, success.
Even if nothing else, this ability to learn spells was even if Cornicus searched the master-disciple inheritance history of Onuma, he would probably not be able to find a few.
But Lan En didn't stop there, releasing the spell just made him a little happy, similar to getting a new toy.
But analyzing and observing the core and underlying logic of the spell made him very interested.
“The key to [violent sweating] is not to sweat, but to incorporate the flame into the body. Through the flame, a little bit of sweat changes its properties and has the power to withstand high temperatures.”
The spell effect only lasted for a few seconds due to Lan En's mistakes and unskilled casting, but when the white mist disappeared from the body surface, the witcher's deep eyes did not return to their normal appearance.
Similarly, the calculation process of Mentos on the retina is also flowing down like a waterfall.
“I remember that Cornicus once solemnly warned me.”
Suddenly, the Witcher, who looked down at the flames on the palm of his left hand, whispered softly.
“He said: Izalis, the origin of spells in the past, was destroyed by the flames he produced.”
“He also said: The flames of that time distorted life. ”
The new logic-based speculation was submitted to Mentos by Lan En's mind, and was deduced based on the data it collected during the previous spell casting process and its own computing power.
The speculation is: Does the so-called flame of the spell have a deeper meaning that is not ‘burning’ or ‘high temperature’ in the conventional sense, but ‘interference with life’?
In the world of fire, all intelligence and life are born from the burning of the initial flame.
The ancient trees and ancient dragons that appeared before this are actually inorganic things, so they are immortal.
Under such circumstances, does the flame itself have the meaning of 'life' in addition to its original nature?
When Lan En submitted this speculation to Mentos for data verification.
He suddenly felt that the computing power of the biochemical intelligence brain was being greatly occupied in an instant.
Mentos slowed down.
But at the same time, the corners of Lan En's mouth were slightly raised.
Mentos also sent congratulations.
"The analysis task has been constructed, sir. I think you are on the right track."
