Lost Narrative Poetry

Xia Ran's brows wrinkled slightly, but then relaxed quickly. He shook his head casually and said with a smile:

"It would be great if it was really so easy to reach the magic field. The magic attributes of the five basic elements should be the most common. There are not necessarily so few magicians with empty attributes, but I haven't seen magicians everywhere... …”

——This sentence is true. No matter how rare the magic attributes corresponding to the five basic elements are, they cannot be said to be truly unique. Even the non-basic overhead attributes are not necessarily rare in a hundred years.

Xia Ran is not necessarily the only magician with empty attributes in history, but they are still magicians and have not been able to reach the realm of magic.

Because magic and magic are different fields, magic is just a general term for behaviors that consume magic power and artificially reproduce mysteries and miracles through established rules and rituals.

Although on the surface, magic is already the concept of magic in the minds of ordinary people, and it seems to be almost omnipotent, but it still basically needs to meet the principle of equivalent exchange. Its activation and stabilization require a consumption of magic power, and the results are okay. The same effect is achieved through modern technology.

It is called "mysterious" because magic still requires hidden knowledge and its results that are outside common sense.

Magic, on the other hand, belongs to another dimension entirely. It is a power close to the source. It is even the ultimate goal that many magicians abandon the source and settle for the second best.

That is a true miracle, a miracle that cannot be achieved by human effort no matter how much time and technology is spent, a miracle that turns the impossible into the possible. No matter how long and how vast the resources are, modern civilization will never be able to replicate what magic can achieve.

Therefore, Xia Ran knew from the beginning how difficult it was to reach the realm of magic, or it should be said that it is not difficult anymore, but depends on whether you have the luck and the fate——

For example, just like Aozaki Aoko, who directly inherited magic and became a magician, there is really nothing to say about this... It is hard to say how difficult it is, it is just a matter of fate.

After all, magic itself is a very rare technology. Even though it is said that there are five major magics in this world, only the second magic "parallel world interference" and the third magic "soul materialization" can be truly confirmed.

There is also the fifth magic, which is the magic Aozaki Aoko inherited from her grandfather, also known as "Magic Ao"...

However, apart from such an inexplicable name, nothing else is known. It is impossible to guess the effect of the fifth magic from its name. It is not as simple and easy to understand as "parallel world interference" or "soul materialization".

We can only guess based on Aozaki Aoko's talent for destruction that "Magic Ao" is also a magic related to destruction. Anyway, there are rumors like this in the streets.

In short, that's it. Although there has always been a saying in this world that there are five major magics in the world - the first, fourth and fifth magics are all existences whose identities are unknown.

It can be seen from this that the field of magic is such a distant level. Countless magicians have tried their best and exhausted the efforts and accumulation of generations and dozens of generations, but in the end they only came to nothing.

Xia Ran didn't think that his talent and qualifications would be so high after his magic attribute was evaluated as a null attribute according to this world's evaluation standards, and he even directly booked a place as a magician in the future.

Unless he has enough causal crystals on hand and triggers the exact cause of learning magic, he can master this absolutely highest level of magic ability directly through space enhancement.

Medea didn't seem to care too much about Xia Ran's casual attitude, she just said with a calm yet meaningful smile:

"Maybe it's because... Master, your emptiness attribute is more strange, maybe it's closer to the essence of "nothing"..."

"Who knows about this? Anyway, I definitely don't know magic at the moment. If I really want to say when I can reach the realm of magic, it depends on your efforts, Caster... If you tell me at this time, you have already figured out the big picture. The secret of the Holy Grail..."

Xia Ran waved his hand. Although Medea seemed to be hinting at something, he did not intend to get entangled in this issue.

After all, his attributes are very strange, and he is not even from this world at all. Even the only magic circuit he has was only possessed by the Great Holy Grail when he summoned the servants before.

Because when the seven groups required for the Holy Grail War are not enough, the standard will be automatically lowered, and other qualified people, even non-magicians, will be found within Fuyuki City to actively increase their magic power to meet the standard.

The reason why it is necessary to open at least one magic circuit is because to become a Master, you must master three Command Seals, and the Command Seals are magic crystals integrated with the magic circuits. The Great Holy Grail will inject its magic power into the Master's magic. The circuit automatically becomes a command spell.

It can be said that this is a mandatory requirement, so he was allowed to use a magic circuit for nothing.

Even the magic circuit was opened not long ago, not to mention the magic attribute. He was indeed somewhat interested before, because he wanted to see whether an outsider and time traveler like himself would be judged according to the standards of this world. It will also be an extremely rare overhead attribute.

But to say how much you care about this kind of thing is not necessarily the case.

The magic attribute only determines the direction of the magic that the magician is good at, and expresses the status of the magician. In other words, what kind of characteristics can the magic used easily have, and what kind of magic is better compatible with it.

If you switch to the world of Xianxia, ​​it is probably similar to the concept of spiritual roots. As for the water spirit root, of course it is best to practice water-attribute exercises, but it is not suitable to practice fire-attribute exercises, and vice versa.

But as a lost person, Xia Ran doesn't need to care too much about these things, because if necessary, he can strengthen his mastery of any attribute skill, and even his own attributes can be changed.

"I can't guarantee this. Everyone hopes to reach the root, but no one has ever truly succeeded. Being able to get close to the root one step, or even half a step, is enough to make all magicians throughout the ages crazy."

Medea stared at her Master, then sighed softly, and then talked about this topic that both parties were concerned about. Her brows furrowed slightly, looking very distressed——

"The five magics are equivalent to naturally formed roads, which can allow people to approach the source more safely and smoothly. However, these roads are not easy to find in the dark and boundless forest, where even the direction is difficult to distinguish..."

Probably because she felt that saying this was a bit embarrassing for the great magician of the Gods. She looked at Xia Ran and quickly added:

"The Great Holy Grail is a good research sample, but it is also very dangerous. Many times I am not able to study it too deeply, and I really don't have enough time."

For a witch like her who has reached the level of a magician but is still a magician because she has not mastered magic, she actually does not want to give up this opportunity.

But the difficulties before her are really troublesome. The most important thing is that the Holy Grail War is too short. She only has a short time to survive as a servant. No matter how hard she tries, she cannot succeed in such a short time. Analyze the secret of the third magic.

"Time..."

Xia Ran raised his eyebrows and hesitated for a moment, as if he was weighing something, but he quickly made a decision.

"Then let's change our thinking now... Don't be busy analyzing the secrets of the Great Holy Grail. First consider how to steal the magic power in it. Although it has been contaminated, if you don't want to use it once, you should consider it. of."

He held his chin, took two steps back and forth in the room, and put forward his new suggestion——

"The Great Holy Grail absorbs magic power from the spiritual veins of Fuyuki City, and it took sixty years to accumulate it before it could hold a Holy Grail War. If you can use this huge magic power alone, it should be enough to support it. You will continue to appear in this world for a long time, right?"

"If it is for my own use, it can support my existence for more than thirty years at least. If it is just to maintain my existence without any big consumption in other aspects, this time will be even longer..."

Medea's eyes flickered slightly, and she was able to reach such a firm conclusion without even thinking about it.

"That's good. Since there is no way to succeed in a short time, let's think about it in the long term..." Xia Ran blinked and decisively changed his strategy. "You can start thinking about this plan from now on. Let yourself have more time first."

"Are you sure you want to do this? Master."

"Why not? That magic power has been contaminated. The Holy Grail is meaningless at all, and it cannot fulfill wishes... But keeping it is a waste. If you can carefully extract the magic power, separate the pollution, and use it yourself, then What does it matter?"

Xia Ran didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

If the magic power was not contaminated, he might have other thoughts, but forget it now, all the evil in this world is not a good thing.

However, keeping that magic power is a waste. If it can be used more carefully, then he has no objection at all. Since it is currently impossible to access such an advanced skill as the third magic, it is better to leave hope to the future.

With the karma of the lost person, it is very likely that he will enter this world again in the fifth battle in the future.

And if Medea could study the Great Holy Grail for more than ten years with her attainments equivalent to those of a magician... This kind of time should be enough, right?

"But it's not easy to monopolize that magic power!" Medea sighed vaguely, but her smile was full of smiles. She had already heard the hidden meaning of her master. , but I still want to confirm.

"This is very simple. As long as everyone else dies and you are the only Servant left, no one will have any objections."

——Xia Ran really came up with a brilliant idea.
