Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1246 Battle Mage Enlightenment Ceremony
Briefly explained the deal with the Harlan Chamber of Commerce with Derrick, and asked him to be in charge of the subsequent handover of the Harlanside Manor.

Of course, the more important thing is to teach Aiwa some routines, skills or methods in business and interpersonal communication.

In the future, Aiwa will become the director of Shadow and the Tower of Time's office in Severton. Although he does not have to be responsible for various specific affairs, he must at least have an understanding of the various affairs he handles.

In the past, Aivar was just a rogue, although he was good at fighting, but in Severton, Shaduo didn't need to use him to fight.

Abilities other than fighting are what Xia Duo values ​​most.

Even for the Tower of Time mages, Xia Duo doesn't value their combat ability, but more on their ability in learning, research, innovation, production, etc.

As for fighting, there will be more professional people to do it.

Xia Duo has decided to wait for the first batch of new apprentices to "graduate", and then select mages who are willing to specialize in combat and form a special mage army.

As for the Territorial Guard, it will still be transformed into a "law breaker" according to the original plan, which will be used as a second-line combat force or auxiliary force in the future.

There is no doubt that the first line is a dedicated battle mage. (Driving a floating warship or a magic machine does not necessarily cast spells with bare hands)
……

Instructing Deacon Tom to arrange Derrick and Aiwa, Xia Duo casually ate two steamed buns, and then walked into the laboratory again.

After half a day and one night of trial production, the production process of Tumo is no stranger to Xia Duo. The only problem now is the compatibility of elf magic.

Before becoming an official mage, a general elf mage will have a rather long apprenticeship stage. During this period, he will form a magic concept based on the elf magic system, and gradually integrate his consciousness with the magic net.

Xia Duo didn't expect a human like him to be able to catch up with the elves in a short time.

In fact, Netheril recorded that human mages who learned elf magic were at the highest level of elite mages, roughly equivalent to high-level human mages.

No higher.

It really takes too long for elf magic to adapt to the magic net. Such magic is naturally extremely elegant for elves, but for ephemeral species like humans, the development period is too long.

It's no wonder that the Nether mage gave up elf magic decisively after discovering the [Nerther Scroll].

Now Xia Duo is just trying his luck over and over again, and the casting process lasts for more than four minutes, which makes his fit with the magic net so low that it is outrageous.

The success rate is not even [-]%!

Regrettably, until the evening, Xia Duo failed to succeed even once. This is not a probability in the game. For every ten failures, there is one successful guarantee. The reality is that the success rate of each spell is less than [-]%.

If you are unlucky, you may not succeed once in ten thousand times!
If you can really try it every 5 minutes, then it doesn't matter, but Xia Duo is a human being, and he is more inclined to Nai color magic.

Every time before casting a spell, he will spend at least 10 minutes adjusting his mental state, which is similar to the synchronous process of resonance casting, in order to obtain a higher degree of compatibility with the magic net.

If you don't, your chances of success are even slimmer.

In addition, it is the energy consumed by casting the spell. It does not mean that if the spell fails, it will not be consumed. In fact, the energy consumed by failure is higher than that of success.

Because of the consideration of his own safety, he needs to take the initiative to suppress the magic net riot after the failure to a certain extent, and it is impossible to completely pin his hopes on the spell stabilization field in the laboratory.

Not to mention being in the Arcane Federation, even in the Tower of Time, Xia Duo has never completely relied on spells to stabilize the field. With this ability, why not add an extra layer of insurance!

Leaving aside those who are far away, Ciore turned himself into a dog after seeing it with his own eyes in Tashaduo of Time.

Xia Duo didn't want this kind of thing to happen to him.

Just like on the earth, even if some dangerous chemical experiments are done in full accordance with the safe operation procedures, the experimenters themselves will be extra vigilant.

Safe operating procedures are one thing, and experimental accidents are another, and no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents (contamination of undetected materials may cause serious accidents).

……

Throughout the whole day, together with the full eighteen hours of the night before, Xia Duo tried and recovered. He tried nearly thirty times in total, and the closest success was the one the night before.

Later, I don't know whether it is a change of mentality or a poor mental state, and the speed of progress is very limited.

"Ugh!"

Looking at the pile of unprocessed mithril component remnants on the test bench, Xia Duo frowned deeply. Such aimless and fruitless attempts made him feel very frustrated.

And there is a more realistic problem here, he has used up one-third of the first-class mithril refined the day before yesterday.

The remaining two-thirds, if it is still like today, it is estimated that it will not be able to stay.

From this point of view, it was a huge loss for him to agree to exchange ten demon-slaying arrows for Harlanside Manor!

Even though Xia Duo bought these mithrils from the Arcane Federation at the price of standard mithrils, he still felt very distressed.

What's wrong with so much mithril, I have to make demon-slaying arrows!

While using a lot of materials, the yield is almost invisible!

Xia Duo knew that he couldn't go on like this anymore, he had to think of other ways, trying his luck was not the right way after all, it was just the compatibility of elf magic——

"Difficult!"

……

Thinking about the Demon-Slaying Arrow in his heart, Xia Duo even lost his mind about eating dinner, and ate a few steamed buns as he did at noon.

"Teacher, I would like to ask, is there any way to temporarily improve the compatibility with the magic net?"

After Xia Duo searched his own memory to no avail, he finally chose to seek help from Iolum. Isn't the role of a teacher supposed to be reflected here!
In addition to Iolum, Xia Duo also asked President Jenna of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. As for Byron, he had already heard from Niya that Byron was busy with life-extending magic, so he didn't bother her.

In the laboratory, Xia Duo continued to process the pipe-mesh mithril component used for the demon-slaying arrow, while waiting for the reply from the two great arcanists.

Soon, President Jenna's reply came first, "I heard that elves will accept an initiation ceremony when they are enlightened in magic. It's lost."

Um?Initiation ceremony?

Xia Duo immediately searched his memory, and sure enough, he found a similar existence in the knowledge of high-level mages in [Sword of Ruler]. A courtesy ritual spell.

It's just that, in the cognition of the knowledgeable senior mage, that kind of ceremony can't increase the fit of the magic net, it's just a tradition.

But anyway, at least it's a clue to try!

Xia Duo immediately expressed his thanks to Jenna, and then Iolum's reply arrived——
