Chapter 212: "True Reflection" and "Advanced Projection Art"
After a brief period of difort, Lynn swiftly calmed the restless magic with the surge in his spiritual power.
"071, disy my current status," Lynn muttered in his mind, setting a temte based on the townsfolk and wizards he had encountered as a standard.
It helped recreate his condition to a certain extent.
[Agreement Target: Lynn
Physical Activity: High
Magic Scale: 92
Spiritual Power Rating: Three-ring wizard
Spell Rank: [Fireball], [me Touch], [Icy de], [Minor-Magic Shield], [High-Temperature Steam Kill], [Liquid Nitrogen - Icy Domain], [Magic Barrier], [Minor-Deflection Field]...
Fourth Ring: [Deflection Field], [Spatial Vibrations], [Advanced Projection Art].]
Each magic scale was equivalent to a standard magic stone, capable of releasing oneplete ring of magic.
Someone like Peirce, a wizard apprentice, had a magic scale of four, while a formal wizard usually operated with over ten scales of magic.
However, the magic used in spells wasn''t fixed. Using pre-prepared materials or employing alchemical tools significantly reduced magic consumption. That''s why even apprentice wizards could cast spells consecutively.
For instance, to employ [Liquid Nitrogen - Icy Domain], covering a radius of about three meters, theoretically required twelve magic scales.
As the air itself was rich in nitrogen, Lynn didn''t need to spend magic to mimic the element, reducing consumption to around five scales.
Moreover, in an overloaded state, most of theputational power and magic during casting were borne by the brain interface, allowing Lynn to utilize it even before bing a formal wizard.
After all, this spell was derived from a first-ring magic, [me Touch], making it rtively easy to learn.
Aside from enhancing his magic, amidst tinkering with internalbustion engines and gunpowder technology, Lynn hadn''t neglected his magical studies. Especially the book he obtained from Aurora, "Visual Maniption and Magical Illusions," had be nearly worn out from his constant perusal.
Within this tome of illusionary magic, various spells manipting sight were recorded. What intrigued Lynn most were the legendary seven-ring spell, "True Reflection," and its subsidiary four-ring spell, "Advanced Projection Art"!
The former was beyond his current capabilities and magical reserves, so his focus shifted to mastering "Advanced Projection Art."
With the enhancement from the magicwork, he could barely learn and wield a four-ring spell, albeit at a considerable cost of magic.
The operation of "Advanced Projection Art" resembled the projection used by the Faceless in the magical realm but with increasedplexity, involving the maniption of light and requiring a specific medium.
For instance, Aurora, the legendary witch, manipted magic effortlessly. She once set up a spell on his forehead with a mere kiss, using an ordinary ss mirror as a medium for the projection, subtly releasing the spell without detection.
Contemting the application of this four-ring spell, Lynn nced towards the direction of the Misty Sea.
After Monday, fleets arriving at Iyeta Harbor from the outside world soon came.
Unlike previous years, only an empty shell of the Mist enveloped the sea this time. It was undoubtedly the most perilous time for the entire harbor city. Lynn hoped nothing untoward would ur...
Five days after Monday, several merchant ships adorned with red gs slowly sailed into Iyeta''s harbor. Dozens of dockworkers unloaded bags of ores, precious herbs, leather, and other goods, piling them up on the docks.
A middle-aged man in a deep blue robe, sporting a goatee, descended from the deck and warmly greeted, "Long time no see, Lord Ondo..."
"It has indeed been a while." Ondo extended his hand and gave the man''s sturdy arm a pat, responding with a smile. Then, he hurriedly introduced Lynn. "This is Cody, one of Mr. William''s most trusted confidants!"
Lynn nodded. William was one of the three spokespersons Herlram sought outside, akin to Lame Loude, responsible for rying external information and transporting scarce materials.
"And this one is..." Ondo turned to Cody, intending to praise Lynn, but was stopped by Lynn''s gesture.
"Just call me Lynn!"
"Lynn, my lord!" Cody greeted respectfully, showing no hint of disdain despite Lynn''s youthful appearance. Anyone standing beside Ondo was obviously a wizard, someone not to be offended.
"What goods have you brought this time..." Lynn nced at the workers transporting the goods and inquired.
"Mostly copper and silver ores, alongside some magical beast leather and rare magical herb materials..." Cody answered respectfully.
Lynn nodded. Despite numerous mines in the wizardnds, after over three hundred years of excavation, mining had be increasingly difficult, making copper, silver, and goldoften used as daily currencyextremely scarce.
However, from today onwards, even iron ore might be scarce due to its insufficient supply.
While great wizards could manipte metal elements using magic, fundamentally, these remained magical and couldn''t rece actual ores.
"Additionally, Lord William found a miraculous maite that can lift iron tools out of thin air, much like magic." Cody presented a palm-sized [Maic Stone] to Lynn, trying to please the wizards.
He had prepared two, intending to give the other one to Master Herlram.
"Maic ore?" Lynn immediately showed interest, taking it in his hand.
"Have you seen something like this before, my lord?" Cody''s expression shifted slightly. This novel trinket was specially prepared to impress the wizards.
Lynn, restraining the impulse to immediately fashion apass, continued his questioning. "Cody, was your voyage smooth this time? How''s William doingtely? Any movement from the clergy?"
