Chapter 29 Strange Stones

As night began to fall, in this neighborhood that became particularly quiet, residents on both sides began to quietly open the door one after another. ‘Oh my God!’ This is the sigh in my heart. The cruel battlefield in front of me, the shock of the messy corpses on the ground was far from being easily expressed in words. For a moment, there was no unnecessary voice except for strong breathing.

"Hahaha..." A few minutes later, a figure suddenly rushed out. Seeing Hawkz, who could vaguely recognize his body, suddenly fell down, laughing wildly, laughing wildly, and her smile was exposed, tears flowing, "Sister, did you see it? I can recognize him even if he dies, he turns into ashes!"

In an instant, there were many discussions, mixed with laughter and crying. For them, who are the most vulnerable group at the bottom of Pompeii, today's night is no longer ordinary, and the black figure makes them believe in hope from then on. Perhaps after a long time, this evening will become a legend, who knows?

At this time, Li Yan had returned to the Mages Association and was entering the single room in the second floor of the association's seating area. The soft, white quilt, a small ball of flames burned quietly in the fireplace in the corner of the wall, and there were fresh fruits on the exquisite desk, and the whole room looked very warm.

The room here is a benefit that only formal mages can enjoy. Although staying for one night requires 1 silver coin, it is indeed worth the money to learn knowledge and study magic more conveniently.

Li Yan felt quite tired when he crossed his legs and sat on the bed. The afternoon battle consumed a lot of mental power and his own magic elements.

Generally speaking, a normal level 2 mage can explosively cast about ten first-level spells in a battle. Once this limit is reached, you will feel very tired mentally. Even if you insist on chanting spells and casting, you will not be able to construct a core framework for magic even if you are exhausted.

Of course, the number of spells cast varies from person to person. Li Yan can currently cast 18 magic spells in a row. After closing his eyes and skillfully communicating with the magic net, he soon entered a state of meditation.

In the following days, Li Yan never walked out of the Mage Association. Apart from rest and eating, he stayed in the library on the first floor for the rest of his life. After experiencing half of his life, he already realized that there was no gain in the world without any effort.

If you want to succeed, you have to sweat. Even if you have strong talents, it is no exception. In a sense, even his talents are achieved through life. As for choosing to leave the mage tower temporarily, it was just because he had a monotonous mood because he had been in an environment where almost no one communicated for a long time.

For those who are obsessed with doing something, time always passes very quickly, just like I write novels, just like Li Yan learning magic knowledge.

It was the seventh day since leaving Meilin's Mage Tower. Early this morning, Li Yan prepared all kinds of items needed to make magic scrolls: dozens of blank scrolls made of magic skins, two small bottles of lilac magic engraving potions that exuded fragrance, as well as magic engraving pens, cleaning potions, rationing instruments, etc., and came to a separate laboratory to try to make scrolls.

The production of the scroll is quite harsh. A three-dimensional magic frame must be constructed on the scroll in a flat form. While the mental power is controlled accurately, the engraving pen in your hand must also quickly and accurately cover the magic potion on the frame with the line of mental power carving. There must be no error in the direction, lightness and weight.

If the stroke is too light or the strokes are deviated, the frame line is not completely or timely covered, which will cause the line to dissipate the entire frame fault; if the stroke is too heavy, the frame line will be blocked.

Of course, it is a good idea to splash ink directly and cover it all, but in this way, the entire mental framework will not absorb the magic elements from the outside world. It is good to treat it as an abstract painting.

These are just one aspect of the production process. As for the construction of nodes, the ratio of potions, the texture limitations of the scroll, etc., it is far from being explained clearly in a short time.

Even if you successfully meet the above requirements, it is a science to encapsulate the scroll in time. There are many mages who have been disabled by their own lethal magic scrolls because they have not been able to encapsulate the scroll well.

Time passed slowly, and the engraving pen in his hand trembled almost imperceptibly. With a frown slightly, Li Yan sighed. Although there was no strange phenomenon on the scroll, he knew that this time the production had failed.

‘It’s just the simplest "vibrant heating" to cast, and I didn’t expect it to be so difficult to make a scroll.’

This was his eleventh time to make a scroll, and he began to feel a little tired mentally. This was a real mental consumption, because every time a scroll was made, it was equivalent to casting a magic, and because it required the perfect cooperation between the spirit and the body, the loss of this mental power was more severe than the simple magic casting.

But the good news is that after the previous failure, he has no problem with mental control. He only needs physical control to keep up and the frame portrayal can be successful. The latter is much easier than the former.

Knowing that the success rate of making scrolls would only be lower when you are mentally sleepy, Li Yan simply put away the items and walked out of the laboratory. He did not forget that today was the day to return to the Mage Tower.

After saying goodbye to Master Feiken, Li Yan soon came to the sixth floor of the association. This time the mage who was waiting for the teleportation array was no longer the one he had last time, but he was still a gray-robed mage.

Back at the Mage Tower again and teleported to the bedroom on the 7th floor, Merlin was still wearing the lilac nightgown and sat at the desk and smiling at him, "Haha, how about it, kid, is the holiday still pleasant?"

A faint warmth surged in his heart, 'This is the feeling of home', and Li Yan smiled and replied: "It's not bad, it's very exciting." Then, with a slightly interested look, the battle of that evening was told.

After listening to Li Yan's statement, Meilin nodded and praised, and then said, "It was me who neglected. The space ring is different from a simple space magic array. It already involves space rules. So although your ring only has a capacity of 1 cubic meter, it is also very precious, and no matter how many gold coins you can buy. And I am very happy that you can survive this crisis this time." He looked at the ring in his hand again, "Well, the vision is also good."

The two chatted for a while, and just as Li Yan was about to leave, they suddenly remembered the strange stone still left in the space ring.

"Teacher, please see, what is this?" Li Yan said, holding the stone that appeared in his left hand in an instant, and then handed it to Meilin's desk. "It seems that there is a strange energy inside."

"Oh?" Picking up the stone, Meilin looked carefully, but his originally smiling face suddenly became serious, "Where did you find this?"

"It was handed over by an ordinary person who attacked me that day. He said he picked it up by the woods outside Pompeii." Looking at the teacher's cautious face, Li Yan was curious, but he didn't ask much.

"Yeah." Her eyes did not leave the stone in her hand. Meilin nodded, but her brows were even more frowned. "Don't tell me about this stone for the time being. I need to find some information to confirm it." He looked up at Li Yan and said, "You go and study first, you don't have to pay too much attention to this matter."

"Okay." After saying that, Li Yan turned around and stepped onto the teleportation stairs in the tower, and a faint sound came.

"Is something going on again?"
