Lord of Arcane

Chapter 35 The Mystery of the Learning Scroll

After returning to the dormitory, Xia Duo took out the [Brightening Technique] learning scroll for the first time. From the outside, it was not much different from rolling up a piece of ordinary parchment.

It is called a scroll, but there is no "shaft", only a "roll". Xia Duo carefully unrolled the learning scroll. The feel is slightly different from that of ordinary parchment. different.

After the learning scroll was unfolded, there was no text on it, but a geometric figure with a sense of design. It was drawn on the parchment with extremely fine brushstrokes.

Now he can't enter the state of focus on casting spells, and he can't watch this scroll with the skill of [Reading Magic] at all. Based on the graphics above, the Shado basic course has not been completed, and he can't see any tricks at all.

You can only wait until you have enough rest before studying again.

At this time, less than an hour before "lights out", Shado took out the "Biography of Dasriel the Archmage" bought from Dean and began to read it. With the simple dictionary he made, he learned the characters. Progress is not slow.

When I first started reading this book, I needed to turn over the dictionary almost every time I read a line of text, but now, I don't have to turn over the dictionary several times to read a page. Xia Duo prepared this biography of the great master before going to sell a few more. This old notebook, as long as it has text.

In a short period of time, Xia Duo does not need to be proficient in color-resistant characters, as long as he meets the minimum requirements for reading and writing, it is not harmful to admit mistakes and write mistakes for the time being, and he will gradually become proficient.

Not long after, the dormitory suddenly became dark, Xia Duo took advantage of the dim light to put away the desk, washed and went to bed.

Restoration of the state of spellcasting concentration requires rest. Generally speaking, the rest here refers to sleep, which allows the entire consciousness to rest.If the rest is insufficient, it may not affect normal activities, but it will affect spellcasting.

Like Xado's bedtime reading just now, although it seems to be very relaxing, it does not count as rest.

It's just that after lying on the bed, Xia Duo didn't want to sleep at all. He was always thinking about how to learn the [Brightening Technique] through the study scroll tomorrow. He was excited but exhausted his energy.

Slowly adjusting his breathing and thinking about his goals and plans, Xia Duo gradually calmed down.

……

The next morning, Xia Duo woke up as usual before the dormitory became bright, and the first thing he woke up was to jump out of bed and take out the study scroll.

At this moment, Xia Duo clearly "sees" in a state of concentration - a large number of "wisps" spread from this rolled up, inconspicuous parchment, echoing the surrounding magic net.

Unrolling the scroll, the originally messy "wisps" became orderly. After the scroll was opened, the structure of the magic net had undergone astonishing changes.

The magic net that originally flowed like water seemed to be twisted, entangled, and folded by some force, forming a three-dimensional configuration that was not complicated, but not simple.

This is the spell model of [Brightness] - a blueprint for manipulating the magic net to form the effect of [Brightness].

And this spell model composed of magic net is combined with the flat figure on the parchment through the basic structure of the magic net.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo no longer needs guidance, what guidance is needed?All the details are revealed without reservation—

How to control the Leyline and even how to draw scrolls!

"As expected of a learning scroll!"

Xia Duo admired it fascinatedly, not letting go of any detail. Fortunately, his sanity was still there. He felt that he took out a blank notebook and began to record the spell structure of [Lighting Technique].

Only some of these structures were demonstrated by Colin in the [Reading Magic] class. Of course, Shado also took notes, but most of them were not demonstrated by Colin. Now the learning scroll has demonstrated it to Shado.

Although I don't know how long the learning scroll will be valid, it is certain that it is absolutely impossible to use it indefinitely.

Just using the skill of [Reading Magic] and viewing the spell structure from the perspective of magic, without actually manipulating the magic net, does not consume much, and Xado can last for quite a while.

However, Xia Duo's record only lasted until the dormitory became bright, and it was not completely recorded. It was a little worse, but it only lasted an hour at most.

Washing in a hurry, going out, delivering clothes to the laundry, getting breakfast, and finally taking the elevator to the Arcane Garden, Xia Duo completed all the movements in one go without any delay.

Arcane Garden is harvesting wheat today, and the workload is not low, because it needs to be harvested and threshed in one day. Xia Duo experienced this battle a week ago.

At that time, Xia Duo was a little embarrassed to see that the others were so busy, but that was when he had just joined the Mage Tower, and now he could calmly watch the few apprentices who had arrived early start to work.

Because he has clearly understood the value of the opportunity to ask questions, if it is possible, who is willing to let it go?
After a calm glance, Xia Duo went to find his apple tree. He has fallen in love with the apple tree now, which makes him feel like a Newton possessed, and even his IQ seems to have improved a lot.

This is called the active function of consciousness.

……

The Arcane Garden was bright and hot, but Xia Duo gradually got used to it. When he got to the apple tree, he unbuttoned his robe and put it on the ground. Then he took out the learning scroll and started recording.

In the whole process of spell learning, recording only takes up a small part of the time, especially when there is a learning scroll, the later practice is the highlight.

As for understanding the principles and rules, let alone that, this is the real magic principle that goes beyond a specific spell. To describe it in terms of pre-travel, one is an application and the other is a theory.

The difference is that the application gains immediate, immediate power, whereas the theoretical benefits are less obvious.

Xia Duo is very aware of the importance of theory guiding practice, but he also understands the reason why it is not urgent.

Throughout the morning, Xia Duo recorded the spell structure of [Brightening Technique] and began to memorize it.In the spell laboratory last night, he always remembered the scene of Dean casting the [Brightening Technique]. Dean didn't turn over the book halfway through, he cast spells entirely from memory.

What Dean can do, there's no reason he can't.

Perhaps the more responsible spells in the future will need to use various means to aid memory and assist in their casting, but this is the simplest 0-level spell, and Xia Duo has full confidence to remember it completely.

In memory, Xia Duo also tried to analyze the law between these spell structures, but found nothing, and he quickly gave up, preparing to make up for it later, whether it was a special theory class or krypton gold.

Now I still need to learn a few spells first, practice first and then theory, maybe it will be helpful to the study of theory.

Xia Duo could only comfort himself like this.
