Ethan’s Fantasy Drift

Ethan and Isandra came to Akara's tent together. Ethan helped Akara make the potion as promised before.

The work he is responsible for is not difficult, mainly cumbersome, and requires enough patience to consume a considerable amount of time to process the herbs.

After he has dealt with these herbs properly, Akara can use these semi-finished products to make finished medicines.

During this process, Ethan was able to combine the knowledge he saw last night with actual operations, further understand and absorb it, and then continued to watch the entire process of Akara's potion making, and thoroughly understood the entire magic potion production method and process.

"Roughly, that's how magic potions are made."

Akara pointed to the raw material in front of him, and then pointed to the finished medicine—the red liquid in a small transparent bottle.

"Choose suitable raw materials, and perform simple processing first, such as cleaning, removing useless parts, or using magic to remove energy that is not suitable for its nature; then drying or drying with direct magic, the corresponding magic must be used in this process, Ensure that the properties required in the raw materials are not destroyed. Of course, some herbs can also omit this step, such as the healing grass you collected this time."

"Then is extraction and refining. Extract the essence of the herbs and mix some auxiliary materials to make the medicine you want." For example, in this medicine made by Akara, the auxiliary material is water, which is convenient and applicable... Yes, it is made into a medicine. The reason is because of the ease of use.

In fact, there is nothing special about the previous steps. The most critical part of the magic potion is the last part. How to extract the 'effect' you want and make it into a potion?

In this regard, Akara's teaching is not very detailed, and even what he said is a bit mysterious. After listening to it for a long time, Ethan can only understand: This thing is purely based on personal understanding. If you can study and understand it, then you really understand. There is no way to learn.

"This is too..."

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't find a suitable word to describe it. No way, a lot of knowledge on the mysterious side is so fascinating, which is why the threshold for this profession is so high, you really can't achieve great achievements if you don't have enough IQ.

"First of all, it requires excellent physical fitness, and now it requires high IQ and comprehension. It's no wonder that in some works, the mages are like plug-ins. According to the requirements of this innate condition, if the cultivated ones are garbage, who will become the mages."

No way, practice!

Fortunately, the production of magic potions has almost no requirements for magic power. Although there are some spells that need to be used, they can be completed by using a magic circle that can use external force.

The working principle of this magic circle has also become one of the goals of Ethan’s study. After all, in the absence of enough spiritual power to breed by himself, or to extract magic power from other places for his own use, this kind of magic can be obtained from the current environment or some hidden meanings. The ability to extract magic power and display effects can solve many problems of Ethan.

He also considered changing the magic circle so that he could perform a few small spells by himself, and the energy supply problem of the magic circle could be solved. He thought of those inferior magic stones in the calm sea, those magic stones. The energy contained is enough to perform some small magic.

Thinking of this, Ethan's energy increased a little bit, and he was more motivated to learn. Not only did he listen carefully, but he kept asking all kinds of strange questions. Many of the questions were asked by Akara who didn't know how to answer them--a past life Living in a world with a big explosion of information, what Ethan lacks most is his brain.

Fortunately, Akara had a lot of other herbs in his hands, so he gave them to Ethan to practice potion making and magic circle use.

Over the next few days, Ethan helped Akela with the herbs in the morning, and then in the afternoon he practiced with some of the lower-quality herbs while Akara made the red potion.

Akara will also take time to give some pointers, telling him what is wrong and what is good, and will also answer some of Ethan's brain holes on the use of magic circles.

Compared with the pure brain hole before, after using the magic circle for a few days, after having a clearer understanding of the principle of using the magic circle, some of the ideas put forward again have been recognized and praised by Akara.

"If you can find a stable source of magic power, then the magic circles you just mentioned are feasible, but the construction of the magic circles needs to be redesigned, which requires you to clearly understand what kind of spells you want to use. ."

How does Ethan know this? According to his previous thoughts, he wanted to design a magic circle that could cast fireballs, and the power didn't even need to be too large, as long as it could cast a fist-sized fireball.

As for the temperature of the flame, the degree of concentration, and the explosive power contained in it, he does not have too high requirements. Even a simple fire is enough for him at present.

But even such a simple request is not something that can be done casually. It requires you to have a very clear understanding of the fireball spell. At least you must understand its principles. Otherwise, how to construct a magic circle?

The current situation is that Ethan understands the principle of energy supply and solves the source of energy, but he knows nothing about the construction and final casting.

Akara is a priest, not a mage, after all. She is proficient in healing magic rather than elemental attack magic, so Ethan needs to formally and systematically learn related magic knowledge if he wants to complete the magic circle he envisions.

If it was before, even if he wanted to learn, he didn't know who to look for, but now there happens to be a suitable candidate: Issandra, an excellent witch from the mage group, who is good at three elemental energies of fire, frost and lightning. The powerful mage of the application.

"You want to learn magic with me?"

Issandra has been living in the camp for a while, and will walk around the camp every day. While investigating the dark power, she will help the camp to clean up some dark creatures around it.

With the help of a powerful mage like Issandra, the pressure on the Rogues in the camp is much lighter, so Issandra's prestige in the camp is also increasing day by day.

The benefit is that it becomes very easy for Ethan to find Issandra, and he can almost know where and what the "Mighty Isandra Mage" is doing right now.

"Simply put, I want to learn the various principles of some spells."

Ethan shared his thoughts and plans to make several pieces of equipment engraved with specific magic circles.

After listening to the detailed explanation, Isandra just frowned: "It's not difficult to make such magical equipment, but it's not very valuable."

What Ethan wants to make are the simplest props, and there is not even a material requirement. It is just an ordinary equipment engraved with a magic circle, and then through the trigger of mental power, the spells preset in the magic circle are displayed. Similar equipment is not uncommon in this world, but no one will use such inferior materials to engrave such basic magic at the same time.

This kind of thing can even be called 'rough and simple! ' His Excellency Issandra, the mage of the orthodox inheritance, obviously dislikes this set of things.

"Thinking about these is not good for your mage path. You should still practice well and improve your spiritual power - in fact, as long as your spiritual power is improved a little more, you can officially start learning spells. At that time You can cast these simple spells with your bare hands."

Ethan shook his head helplessly: "But I have no self-protection power at all, and I may die at the hands of dark creatures at any time. If I die, how can I practice spiritual power or even learn magic?"

"Uh..." Isandra could not refute, this is indeed a very realistic question: "Well, I can tell you the principles of some basic magic."

These basic magics are not secrets that cannot be taught. Once you start to learn magic, a mage will know these things.

Issandra originally wanted to teach a few basic attack magic and defense magic, but soon changed her mind and took out a book from her luggage.

"This is a basic magic principle. I gave it to you. The spells you need are recorded." Issandra looked at Ethan, who was full of information, and finally added: "But I still have to remind You, simple basic spells are enough, if you want to build more advanced magic on items, you cannot succeed with ordinary materials."

Ethan nodded, he still knew this, Akara had mentioned to him before: "In fact, even if it is a few magic circles that are introductory magic, I am going to make a weakened version."

Even entry-level magic, if it is constructed according to the maximum power, it is not something that can be engraved just by looking for it. The conductivity of magic power and whether it can accommodate the impact of greater energy will directly affect whether the magic circle can be successfully deployed.

And those that can have excellent conductivity and withstand a lot of energy shocks are extremely rare magic materials, which cannot be obtained in Ethan's current state.

Therefore, even if he got a whole book of entry-level spell principles from Issandra, his plan has not changed, and it is still the weakened version of small magic.

Just when he was about to go back and read the basic principles of spells and choose the right little magic to make a few pieces of equipment, Issandra suddenly stopped Ethan who was about to leave.

"I've been exploring outside for a while, and finally I found the place with the most dark energy in this area. It's an underground cave called the Evil Cave. After I discussed it with Akara, I thought it might be the place where all the dark creatures in the vicinity belong. Gather."

"So?" Ethan didn't think that Isandra came to find him to form a team to fight the evil cave, and he didn't have the fighting power.

"I need you to do me a favor." Isandra handed over a letter: "Before I came here, I met a priest of Rathma, and he was also investigating the cause of the skyrocketing dark power, so I want you to send him a letter for me to come here and destroy those dark creatures with me."
