Chapter 32 Energy Ray
Time passed slowly like this, and in the blink of an eye it was already late September.
In order to spare time to learn magic, Richard tried his best to leave the affairs to the deputy squadron leader Dida.
Dida is Richard's comrade in the Sixth Squadron and the squadron's marksman.
The two teamed up to kill the fifth-level lion-headed man Walder. Dida made great achievements in battle, exchanged the breathing method, was promoted to a professional, and became Richard's deputy.
Because of this relationship, the two got along well. With Dida's help, Richard got rid of many trivial matters. He practiced breathing techniques in the morning, meditated in the evening, and practiced various skills in the afternoon.
Every day, every hour, every minute is clearly arranged. This kind of strong self-discipline astonished the soldiers of the 7th Squadron, and many of them secretly admired him.
At the young age of Mu Ai, he could endure all kinds of temptations and live a life like an ascetic monk in the military camp. Such people are very rare in the Dawn Continent.
Only those who are ambitious and yearn for strength can endure this kind of hardship for a long time.
For ordinary people with conditions like Richard's, the most important thing every day is to communicate with all the beautiful and sexy aristocratic ladies. It is not much better to discuss the meaning of life with each other than to endure the pain every day in the military camp.
So it's no wonder that at such a young age, Richard has reached a height that many soldiers will never reach in their lifetime. In addition to cheating, Richard's self-discipline, studiousness, and patience are all critical factors.
As it entered late autumn, once heavy snow closed the mountains, the invading orc army was blocked at the southern foot of the mountains.
When the human kingdom adds reinforcements, the orc army stationed at the southern foot of the Eagle Mountain Range loses its backup, and the entire army will inevitably be annihilated. So starting from late August, the orc army withdrew from the mountain roads with the captured people and supplies.
The orcs gradually withdrew, and communications gradually began to be restored.
Richard finally received news from his father William and second brother Barron.
My father, William, and my third uncle, Bernie, were both safe and sound, and they sent me handwritten letters saying they were safe.
The second brother Barron sent a death notice.
From the death notice, Richard learned that Barron was killed near Flying Eagle Fort.
The process of death in battle is also explained very clearly.
Barron and his group were left behind, and it was a very brutal battle from which only a few people escaped. Barron was not the lucky one, and like most of the soldiers died at the hands of the orcs.
Because Eagle Castle is still in the hands of the orc army for the time being, Barron doesn't even have anyone to collect the bones.
Many orc races have the habit of cannibalism. Many of the human soldiers who died in orc-controlled areas did not even have their bodies.
Barron, like Ron, was William's son from his first wife.
He is seven years older than Richard, and they do not have the same mother, so their relationship with them is not very close.
After Richard was reborn into this world, brothers Ron and Barron had already entered the Knight Academy to study. There are very few opportunities for their brothers to meet each other, and they can only get together for a few days every year during the goddess's birthday holiday.
But after all, they were brothers from the same family. When he heard the news of Barron's death in battle, Richard felt very uncomfortable.
After Ron heard the news that his brother had died in the battle, he couldn't help but burst into tears. They are from the same mother, have been together since childhood, have the same memories, and have the deepest relationship.
After studying hard for a month, Richard spent almost all his free time learning magic. He finally carved the first complete rune in the spiritual space and learned the first spell in his life.
This spell is called energy ray, which is a precursor to a magic energy missile. As for the famous three-ring magic fireball, the prefix spell is energy missile.
If you want to learn the most cost-effective three-ring magic fireball technique in war, you must first learn the one-ring magic energy missile.
To learn energy missiles, you must learn zero-ring magic energy rays.
Most evocation mages will choose to learn energy rays. After learning the energy ray, the attribute panel changed again.

Different from physical combat skills, the magician will The magic runes are burned into the spiritual space, which is equivalent to fully mastering the spell.
There is no essential difference between a legendary magician and a magic apprentice when they use energy ray magic. They both invest spiritual power and mobilize magic runes to stir up the spiritual space.
The only difference is the timing of releasing the spell and the amount of mental energy invested.
The timing of releasing magic depends on the talent and experience of the magician. Even the attribute panel cannot enhance this ability.
After working hard for a month, I learned the first zero-ring magic, and my mental power increased by 0.2 points.
However, the increase in meditation experience is relatively small. According to Richard's estimation, even if he is promoted to a high-level magic apprentice without killing experience, it will take about a year of work.
Richard's mental power is very strong. If one-fifth of his mental power is invested in the energy ray magic, the power of this magic will be greatly enhanced, reaching the level of a first-level spell.
The lethality of this magic is not much different from that of Richard shooting his enemies with a bow and arrow.
But using magic to kill is more subtle. It only takes three seconds to prepare and kill the opponent by surprise.
Moreover, after the arrows are used up, Richard can still use magic to hit his opponent with several rounds of energy rays.
Energy rays have a longer range and can reach as far as more than 100 meters. Although it is not as good as the enchanted bow used by Richard, the killing range is enough.
Entering mid-October, this half-year-long war finally ended. The orcs withdrew from the Eagle Mountains, and heavy snow fell, blocking the mountain roads.
The Mad Lion Legion also ended its mobilization, and the Eighth Brigade was transferred back to garrison near the Flame Castle.
The legion headquarters issued medals to the soldiers who participated in the war. Richard had three more badges on his chest, a Distinguished Officer Medal, a Platos Defense War Commemorative Medal, and a Silver Star Medal.
The Medal of the Defense of Platos is owned by every soldier who participated in the Defense of Platos.
The Medal of Outstanding Officers is relatively rare. In the entire Eighth Battalion, there are more than 30 first-level officers in squadrons, and only half of them are awarded with medium merit.
In a war, only by accumulating the next great achievement can you get the Silver Star Medal.
There are more than a thousand officers and soldiers in the Eighth Battalion, but only two people have received the Silver Star Medal. Apart from Richard, it is Captain Sharp.
After the war, Roland also submitted an application for retirement. Without a leg, Roland could no longer maintain his position in the army.
He barely stayed in the army and only did some work guarding warehouses.
If you can't achieve military exploits, you naturally have no hope of becoming a noble.
Roland has been in the army for many years and has no shortage of gold coins. Seeing that there is no hope of promotion to the hereditary nobility, Roland is ready to return to his hometown of Wrightburg to spend the rest of his life.
Roland was born into a professional family, and three generations before and after him joined the army. His father died on the battlefield. Roland was more talented and had a higher official position. After all, it was difficult to take this crucial step and lead his family to the hereditary nobility.
