  Chapter 20 Spell Scroll
  As the magic power continues to be injected, the seven runes distributed in a circular pattern on the rune array in front of the answer sheet first become brighter.

  Taking it as a starting point, every line and pattern of the rune array is gradually "lit".

  When the entire rune array on the answer sheet began to emit a bright shimmer, a slight repulsive force gently flicked Brand's magic-transmitting palm away.

  Then, a soft shimmering light enveloped the rune array and spread on the answer sheet like scattered ink stains.

  After the shimmering light enveloped the entire answer sheet, it began to gather and converge again, and finally left a blue arrow pattern on the answer sheet.

  Here, the changes stop.

  Brand reached out and touched it, and the answer sheet still felt the same as before.

  However, Brand's painstaking efforts to draw the rune circle has completely disappeared, leaving only a blue arrow pattern that takes up most of the answer sheet.

  Brand speculated that such changes should be to prevent technology leaks.

  The rune circle has changed into the current arrow pattern, so outsiders will not be able to pry into its secrets.

  This is just right. The original rune circle was a bit hard to see, but now it looks much more pleasing to the eye!

  Looking at the first rune circle he drew in front of him, Brand felt very happy.

  Just when I wanted to sing a song to celebrate.

  Brand suddenly remembered that there was a strange lady beside him.

  Facing a strange, well-dressed lady, my behavior just now seemed a bit too indifferent.

  ——This is against the etiquette of the Holland family!

  So Brand took out a tissue and wiped his slightly "painted" fingers, and straightened his slightly wrinkled sleeves.

  Finally, he "inadvertently" turned his eyes and "accidentally" discovered that there was a beautiful lady standing next to him.

  Brand stood up in surprise, looking astonished, and sighed:

  "I was so seduced by the mystery of rune formations just now that I didn't notice such a beautiful lady coming next to me! "

  That sincere look, if Celine's eyes hadn't left Brand's handsome face, she might have believed it at this time.

  But Brand always looks "extraordinary" when faced with such elegant words and eager eyes.

  Celine's face under the veil couldn't help but blush for a moment, and her eyes looking at Brand became a little softer.

  After calming down, Celine said gently: "Would you like to try the spell scroll you made?"

  "Spell scroll?"

  Brand was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he quickly reacted.

  This should be referring to the "answer sheet" on the table.

  By the way, is this a magic scroll? The spell scroll was originally made from a rune array!
  Brand felt that his knowledge had broadened a bit.

  But according to common sense, he has shown such initiative. According to the general etiquette of nobles, shouldn't they introduce each other's identities first?

  The elegant aristocrat with a good aristocratic education sensed something was amiss.

  However, after all, since she is a woman, she is most likely a college instructor.

  No matter which angle you look at it, you should follow others' lead.

  Thinking of this, Brand took the "answer sheet" on the table into his hand.

  Then he said with an expectant look on his face: "Although it is a bit embarrassing to test the spell scroll on this occasion, I really can't wait."

  Seeing Brand's expectant look, Celine also smiled slightly.

  "Let me find a target for you."

  As she spoke, Celine gently raised her right hand in the direction of Moon Lake.

  Then, Brand felt that the magic in the air was gathering in a strange way.

  ——On the Moon Lake, about ten meters away from Brand, a circular archery target made of ice slowly rose.

  After doing all this, Celine asked again: "Do you know how to release the spell scroll?"

  "I know this!"

  Brand once wanted to buy "a batch" of spell scrolls for self-defense.

  After all, growing up, there were many people who were jealous of Brand and wanted to make him look good.

  And as Brand grew older, his handsome appearance became more and more obvious.

  Recently, there have been a lot of bold and unrestrained ladies who want to kidnap him back and put him in confinement.

  Therefore, the issue of own safety is something Brand often considers.

  In this context, the spell scroll can undoubtedly ensure his personal safety.

  However, what makes Brand somewhat regretful is that even the most basic spell scrolls cost at least 100 magic gold coins each.

  - He can't afford it.

  So he found his father, Mr. Holland.

  For Mr. Holland, it was just a spell scroll, and of course he could afford it.

  It's not like he didn't consider Brand's personal safety.

  It's just that the price/performance ratio was too low, so I gave up in the end.

  Rather than buying spell scrolls, he would rather spend his funds on cultivating loyal guards.

  All in all, Brand finally gave up the idea of ​​buying a spell scroll.

  However, he still learned a little about how to use the spell scroll during that time.

  ——Just hold the spell scroll tightly with your palm, wait for the warm breath to come from the scroll, aim at the target, and throw it out.

  There is no need to worry about the hit rate, the spell scroll will correct a certain range of errors based on the releaser's gaze.

  After recalling the past events, Brand held the "answer sheet" in his hand.

  After he felt a warm breath clearly on his palm, he threw the "answer sheet" in his hand towards the archery target on the lake not far away.

  The moment the "answer sheet" leaves your hand, under the influence of some preset force, the entire "answer sheet" is instantly annihilated and then quickly reorganized.

  Then, a magic array unfolded instantly, and the free magic power in the air quickly condensed, and finally turned into a blue-white arrow, shooting towards the target not far away.

  Although the process of releasing spells from a spell scroll is very complicated, it all happens in the blink of an eye.

  From Brand's perspective, he only saw the scroll he threw flashing with dazzling white light, and he could vaguely see a magic circle unfolding inside.

  Then there was a loud "bang".

  Under the impact of the magic arrows, the arrow targets made of ice on the lake instantly exploded and turned into broken ice that filled the sky, falling onto the Moon Lake and causing ripples.

  Seeing this astonishingly powerful scene, Brand was slightly distracted.

  He never thought he could create something so powerful.

  This power feels almost comparable to the giant crossbows used for defense on the city wall.

  At this time, Celine commented on the power of this spell:
  "After my observation, the attack strength just now was 72 Pa. Calculated based on the standard strength of the magic arrow of 100 Pa, the completion degree of this rune array is 72%, which is barely qualified for a beginner."

  Brand, who had come back to his senses, listened to a series of "data" given by the purple-haired woman. Although he didn't show it on his face, he expressed resistance in his heart.

  The main reason is that he doesn't quite understand what "par", "standard strength" and "completion" mean.

  Even if it is true, it is just a literal meaning.

  However, since the deep conversation would reveal his lack of knowledge, Brand still maintained a "charming" smile and began to change the topic without leaving any trace.

  Just listen to him say: "Beautiful lady, thank you for everything I met tonight. I am Brand Hollander. How should I call you?"

  Facing the "glorious" Brand, Celine also Unconsciously, these academic issues were temporarily put aside.

  She said softly: "I am Celine Knowles, I think you can call me 'Teacher'."
