I took a serious look at my status.
Chen Xuan took several deep breaths with a long breath.
After closing his eyes, he could actively close his perception, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
A third-level silver caster's mental power can reach an out-of-body range of 55 to 100 meters.
Compared with the second-level bronze level, the maximum range of 20 meters is a considerable improvement.
Within the range that his mental power can cover, he can perceive and lock down everything in detail.
It can also turn mental power into substance at the right time to attack or interfere with the enemy.
Substantial mental power is similar to telekinesis, which can be regarded as a manifestation of using spiritual will to influence reality.
It is said that the spiritual meditation method, like the magic cultivation method, will undergo a qualitative change at the fourth level and achieve a greater improvement.
In addition to the change in range, the multiplier of super-sensory vision has also changed from 0.7 to 0.5. The enemy's movements during combat are in a "half-frame" state for him and will become extremely sluggish.
At the same time, visual zoom and perception enhancement are also significantly improved.
These are all "by-products" brought about by the improvement in the level of spiritual meditation.
For Chen Xuan, what he values is the magic learning after breaking the threshold.
A spellcaster with little mastery of magic is equivalent to a tiger with bad teeth.
In other words, magic is the core factor of the spellcaster's combat effectiveness.
However, different levels of magic require corresponding spiritual power and meditation cultivation for support.
For a guy like Chen Xuan, who has mastered the talent of sensing all elements and can practice all kinds of magic without any restrictions, the benefits of learning as much magic as possible have already exceeded simply improving the level of cultivation.
At this time, he has become a third-level spell caster and can learn various magics of third level and below.
He had already made arrangements for this.
The wizard towers in each place have collections of magic books of various series.
It can be studied and studied by registered caster members based on their contribution.
Chen Xuan can now directly prostitute these magic books for free.
After completing his training goal ahead of schedule, he estimated that there were still three or four minutes left in the outside world, so he stopped practicing. Instead, he took out the bedding from the storage compartment, lay down comfortably, and soon fell asleep.
Although the method of combining magic cultivation with spiritual meditation can be called "perpetual motion" cultivation, in fact, without sleep for a long time, deep fatigue cannot be relieved.
Especially long-term repetitive practice, the boring process will bring mental pollution.
Sleep is equivalent to restarting the process to clear out redundant mental garbage.
[Time Travels Slowly] Outside the realm, Ahn'Qiraj Lauder watched Chen Xuan take out the quilt at 1200 times fast forward speed, and then tossed and turned in his sleep.
It wasn't until three or four minutes later that the water clock completely dripped, and the rippling gray light shield slowly broke.
The flow rate of time inside and outside is restored to a synchronized state.
It represents the end of this round of [Time Walks Slowly].
When the photomask completely disappears, the difference between the inside and outside becomes apparent.
I saw that within the area covered by the [Time Slow Travel] area, except for the area where Chen Xuan was active, a thin layer of dust was visible to the naked eye.
Chen Xuan stretched and put away the quilt.
Then he touched his flat belly, took out a few protein energy bars, bit open the packaging bag and stuffed it into his mouth to chew.
Ahn'Qiraj quickly stood up and went over to meet her. As soon as she took a few steps closer, she froze on the spot.
Because she vaguely sensed the changes that had taken place in Chen Xuan.
"You..."
she murmured.
Although she was mentally prepared for the magic of the Law of Time, the shock after witnessing it with her own eyes was undeniable.
Affected by the difference in the speed of time, Chen Xuan spent 1,200 water clock hours practicing and gained, but for Ahn'Qiraj who was outside, all the gains were condensed into one water clock hour.
"How is the outside world during this time?"
Chen Xuan did not speak, still chewing the protein bar, but his words could appear directly in Ahn'Qiraj's thoughts.
This is the spiritual power transmission ability that has become standard for third-level spellcasters.
"You have indeed made a breakthrough!"
Ahn'Qiraj calmed down a little and immediately responded with mental power.
She has already seen that Chen Xuan can not only cultivate magic and martial arts, but also have top-notch talents in both.
Chen Xuan nodded, feeling calm inside.
Then Ahn'Qiraj quickly handed the letter from Baron Bezos into his hands.
After receiving the text message written on sticky paper, Chen Xuan looked at it for a few times and his expression became strange.
"A dragon is suspected to have appeared in the north direction of the city?"
He looked up at Ahn'Qiraj.
Facing his rhetorical question, Ahn'Qiraj nodded solemnly.
"Not long ago, there was a huge roar outside the city. After the research and judgment of Grand Scholar Inaogi, it was initially determined to be the roar of the demon dragon!" "The
demon dragon is called the 'earth cataclysm', and its power is far superior to ordinary monsters. The strength!"
"If there really is a demon dragon that maintains its peak condition outside the city, then any defense line built by Magattan City will be vulnerable to it!"
Chen Xuan nodded lightly and did not answer any more words.
What he cared about was not the dragon itself, but the direction north of the city.
Speaking of which, the magic dragon should also be related to Ansetus.
Combined with the fact that the ceremonial light pillar was first raised in the misty canyon in the north, it was not difficult for Chen Xuan to guess that the key to the outbreak of this regional magic disaster was there.
It's just that the appearance of the magic dragon makes the situation more difficult.
From the cryptic and guarded look on Ahn'Qiraj's lips when mentioning the dragon, we knew it was definitely not easy to mess with.
Otherwise, there would not be such a deceptive nickname as "Catastrophe".
Originally, it was not easy for Magatan City to withstand the impact of monsters. Now that there is an additional demon dragon, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.
Fortunately, this news was not made public and was only circulated within the circles of municipal management.
Due to limited knowledge and the fact that dragon species rarely appear on the Naroa continent, most people are unable to determine the source of the distant roar.
Just think that some kind of terrifying giant beast has appeared.
Among the monsters, there are many huge demon descendants. On the battle fronts in various parts of the continent, huge skeletons comparable to epic spectacles can often be seen.
Including the "Demon Bone" fortress in the Target Empire that Chen Xuan had heard about before.
One of the towers was made of the bones of a large high-level monster plus the bones of many monsters.
"Ask old bachelor Inagio to come to the mage tower to meet me."
"Just after one water clock hour."
"I have to continue to retreat and study the magic books collected in the mage tower."
Chen Xuan waved his right hand.
Wearing a space storage ring there, it was given to him by Ahn'Qiraj before entering the tower.
It contains magic books, library and guild collections.
It is also the goal that he needs to study and learn next.
After hearing the news about the demon dragon, Chen Xuan has always been very calm, and his mentality has not been affected by the appearance of the demon dragon.
Regarding this kind of settled matter, Chen Xuan has always been very open-minded.
Whether you are in a hurry or not, the dragon is there, so why not do what you need to do as planned!
However, this calm answer seemed to Ahn'Qiraj to be an unfathomable performance.
Dihua Thinking asked her to start thinking about whether her "cheap" master was confident that she could deal with the magic dragon.
Little did he know that Chen Xuan had no idea about the specific strength of the demon dragon.
Magtan City's protective magic circle has been reinforced many times over the years.
He can completely withstand multiple high-level attacks. Even if the dragon invades, he can still buy a certain amount of reaction time. If it is really impossible to resist, he can calmly run away with his men.
After twisting his neck, Chen Xuan returned to his original position, ready to start another round of [Time Slow Walk].
Suddenly he remembered something and quickly used his mental power to send a message and called out to Ahn'Qiraj who was about to go downstairs.
"By the way Ahn'Qiraj."
"Ask Baron Bezos to bring his family dragon steel sword!"
After receiving the message, Ahn'Qiraj stopped and stood at the edge of the stairs to caress him. He saluted with his chest to show that he understood.
Then she hurried downstairs under his gaze.
Chen Xuan had seen the dragon steel sword in the castle before.
He still remembered the details mentioned in the information in [Insight]:
[Dragon Steel Sword can cause additional damage to the scales of dragons and dragon-born creatures, which can offset the suppression of dragon power to a certain extent]
At that time, Chen Xuan I don't mind this, because dragons are not cabbage that can be seen everywhere.
Unlike goblins, which are stinky fishes and rotten shrimps, dragons are definitely considered "treasure" animals in Naloa.
There are few records of either the local true dragons or the exotic demonic dragons.
Dragon stories are mostly spread in the form of various legends and fairy tales.
In the final analysis, it is because Magtan City is just a small place.
The cognitive gradient here is far inferior to that of Giant City.
Even Chen Xuan himself was bound to such a framework.
Putting aside whether he can defeat the magic dragon, since there is a highly targeted weapon like the [Dragon Steel Sword] in the city, it is necessary for Chen Xuan to get it first.
Watching Ahn'Qiraj leave, he began to recharge the magic core for the magic gathering array.
After more than an hour of overload operation, obvious cracks have appeared on the surface of this third-level magic gathering array.
On the originally relatively neat array, there were cracks criss-crossing each other.
When it is completely broken, it is time to be completely scrapped.
After refilling the magic core, Chen Xuan started the second round of [Slow Time Walking].
A gray mask appears, isolating the inside and outside of the field.
He took out a soft cushion from the storage compartment, sat cross-legged, took out a large book and started reading.
There are a few large gilded characters written in Common on the cover -
"General Theory of Naroa Magic".
In this round of [Time Walks Slowly], his mission is to read, read, and read again!
...
East of Magtan City, the straight road extends two hundred kilometers away.
This is the boundary of the Dark Mandala Light Curtain.
On the side that was not blocked by the light curtain, most of the traveling merchants who had been blocked on the straight road had left.
News of the accident has also been sent back to Jucheng through the Pioneer Dragon Eagle Team.
At this time, on this slightly lonely straight road, a slim figure wearing a face scarf, a bamboo hat, and a close-fitting sleeveless light armor strolled over.
Judging from the body curve, this should be a woman.
She has black eyes and black hair. She wears a straight knife about 60 centimeters long on her right side, and a long curved knife about 1.2 meters long hanging diagonally on her left side. In addition, she also carries a knife nearly two meters long on her back. Rice Naginata.
The naginata was like a flag tilted behind her.
With an extremely indifferent expression, she stopped looking at the dark mandala light curtain in front of her.
A gentle breeze blew from a distance, stirring up her dark hair that was hanging down under her hat.
"I'm here to take you home..."
After a moment of pause, she continued forward and came directly to the light curtain.
The deep dark eyes slowly narrowed, and in the next moment, only an afterimage glowing with blue-purple light appeared.
She instantly drew out the dagger on her right side and cut towards the light screen with the magic element wrapped around her.
When she put away the knife, the mandala light curtain was cut into a gap that only one person could pass through.
Without any hesitation, she jumped through the gap and entered the area covered by the light curtain.
Within more than ten seconds after she left, the gap in the light curtain closed automatically.
And that lonely and deserted figure also disappeared at the end of the darkness.
...
"That's it."
Chen Xuan held the book in his hands, with a flash of understanding in his eyes.
There were mountains of ancient books around him.
In the past nearly 500 hours, he had been reading without food or sleep.
In addition to reading various books on magic and spiritual power meditation, he also read many miscellaneous books similar to "Naroya Grand View".
It further fills in the gaps in the knowledge of this world.
Due to the age of many books in the collection, many things recorded have long been impossible to verify.
But Chen Xuan found a lot of useful information based on the clues found in the cave sacrifices.
Including the Uni-server sect that worships three moons and calls them the Moon Mother, as well as several theoretical studies on the moon phases, all opened Chen Xuan's eyes.
It mentions a phase of the moon called Silver Moon Yaokong.
When this moon phase appears, the two moons representing demons, the gray moon and the green moon, will sink into the sky. Only one silver moon shines brightly on the earth in the entire night sky.
The appearance of this moon phase means that the evil disaster is about to enter its trough.
The power of a certain kind of guardianship will rise to its peak, and the number of monsters emerging from the monster burrows or void transmission channels in the battle lines every day will be greatly reduced.
The theory of the moon phases proves the Naroa Aboriginal people’s tracing and research of the outbreak of demonic disasters.
It’s just due to regional factors and the background of multi-ethnic integration.
In addition, the appearance cycle of the moon phase is long, and it may not appear once every tens or hundreds of Naroa years. During such a long interval, most of the non-immortal Naroa aborigines will Its forgotten.
Only the church, the maesters, and those spellcasters who delve into the truth remember these things.
Just like Blue Star's modern society, not many people will remember the natural disasters of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition to the moon phases, Chen Xuan also had a preliminary understanding of Naroa's customs, multi-ethnic cultural background, and historical evolution.
This round of reading has benefited him a lot, and his horizons have broadened a lot!
...
The foreshadowing about this mysterious woman has actually been mentioned before, but I don’t know if anyone knows about it.
