V8.Chapter 4

After the magic web collapsed.

The one-time memory that the wizards used to use the magic net storage must become the permanent memory today, because there are no spell slots to help them save these constructed spell models.

A little detail must be mentioned here.

In the past, wizards memorized the spell slot, and it took the longest time to store the spell slot with the initial brand. After completing the memory of the spell slot, as long as the spell was cast in the future, the time it took to refill the spell was the same. very short. Even a wizard with poor talent can completely re-memorize all the spells stored in the spell slot in a maximum of 8 hours. This is one of the greatest functions of the Leyline, and now that it has lost this function, many wizards must independently complete the modeling of these spells.

The only good thing is that the strength of these spellcasters is still there.

That is, the most basic spiritual power and the magic power accumulated through meditation are still there. For example, Gloria showed Sauron an example.

A mid-level wizard named Corolla.

His talent is not high, and it is estimated that his intelligence is barely 18-20 points when calculating the occupation bonus. His original casting level is about 8. After the magic net collapsed, he completely lost all spells, but after conducting tests in Modo City and the Wizarding League, he regained mastery of the most basic spell [Arcane Missile] through continuous practice.

This is currently the only first-level spell he can cast.

Under the circumstance that he could only cast this spell from memory, he was able to cast arcane missiles more than 30 times in a row, which exhausted his strength.

This means that his original ability to exercise has not disappeared.

It's just that he has lost the magic net, an auxiliary tool, and has become unable to master other spells. For a long time in the future, he may only be able to cast some very low-level spells.

"What are you going to do now?"

Sauron frowned and looked at the results of the tests conducted by Gloria and others, and said slowly: "There are still many wizards who cannot cast spells. This problem must be solved as soon as possible, at least so that they can protect themselves."

Gloria nodded when she heard the words, and then said, "I know."

"So the result of our discussion at present is to let them re-memorize the spells they are most familiar with and use the most. At present, we can only let them learn the skills of warlocks and regain mastery of spells through repeated practice."

"but."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for these people to learn new spells in the future. The types of spells they master may be a little less than that of warlocks."

Warlocks rely on talent to cast spells.

After the magic net collapsed, the masters who were once aloof might only be able to master a very small number of spells through constant contact, unless they could meet the requirements of advanced arcanists.

The magic net also existed in the arcane empire period.

A large number of low-level spellcasters rely on the magic net to cast their spells, but the arcanist level generally jumps off the magic net. And if you advance to become a great arcanist, there is no problem with the magic net.

"How about the ** teacher?"

Sauron thought for a while, and said, "Has the spellcasting ability of those magicians been reduced?"

It was the fallen witch who answered him, only to hear her slowly say: "The ability of the masters has not declined much. With their talent and understanding of spells, they can cast most spells even without magic nets. ."

"But there must be some impact."

"They should have the same effect as us. All spells need to be memorized again."

The fallen witch's talent is amazing.

Such a complex [Elemental Furnace], she can disassemble and reassemble it by relying on one person's memory. This memory and comprehension ability is simply the level of a scientist. The masters are all advanced legendary spellcasters, and their talents are very good. Even if the magic net collapses, they can easily re-complete the spell memory.

This should be the most fortunate point.

After the collapse of the magic net, although the lower-level wizards were hit hard, the wizards above the legendary level were not greatly affected.

"What about your current strength?"

Sauron thought for a while and asked, "Do you think your strength has decreased or increased?"

Gloria frowned and hesitated for a while, then said slowly, "Not sure."

"However, one thing that can be confirmed at present is that the spells we can cast have become much more flexible after the collapse of the magic net. Although the original spell slots are convenient for spellcasters, they also limit the performance of some very talented people. "

"If I used spells in the past, I had to limit myself to what I remembered in my spell slot."

"And now we can cast all the spells we can master at will! The only measure of our ability to cast spells is our own spiritual power and magic power."

"Before the magic and spiritual power are exhausted, we can cast spells at will."

"There is no actual combat test yet, so I'm not sure if our strength has decreased or increased!"

"and."

"The convenience of the magic net makes it easier to cast spells. After leaving the magic net, after our preliminary calculation, the total number of spells we can cast should be reduced by about 30%."

The magic web is a framework and a limitation.

One-level spell slots can only memorize one-level spells. Although the utilization rate has been maximized, the framework is there after all. No one can jump out of the laws of the Goddess of Magic.

Now that the magic net has collapsed, there is no such convenience without this framework.

Relying on personal ability to use and exert it is bound to be incomparable to the huge magic net, so the total amount of spells that can be cast is reduced on the whole.

certainly.

Unless you only remember to cast one spell, the number of spells you cast will explode. Because the second-level spell slots in the past have all become the magic power of casting first-level spells.

"How long will it take for these spellcasters to regain their combat effectiveness?"

Sauron asked the most crucial question.

Gloria pondered for a long time before saying, "It's hard to say. Now we can only look at their personal talents. It is estimated that in about a month, most spellcasters can recover some spells."

"But some of them may only be able to perform some level 0 tricks in the future."

Reality without the Weave is so cruel.

A spellcaster who is not an academic master or a quasi-student master will be able to use 0-level tricks to conjure magic in the future.

The existence of the magic net naturally has its reason, how brilliant the Thorium era was, after the death of the first generation of magic goddess. It is not the same as following the destruction in history. An arcane civilization cannot be supported only by the geniuses at the top. If magic wants to be used and popularized, it must rely on the power of the magic net. If the magic net cannot be restored, the current batch of spellcasters is better. .

From now on, without the help of the magic net, the difficulty of anyone entering an advanced wizard will increase exponentially!

Sauron conservatively estimated that they would need an initial intelligence of 18 points before they could advance to become wizard apprentices, mastering the lowest level 0 tricks, and then only when their occupation level reached about level 4, they could start learning first-level spells. (Note: Because at level 4 of the wizarding profession, their intelligence can only reach about 20 points.)

Now this group of wizards still have the accumulation and training in the past, and most of the intelligence has been raised to more than 20 points due to the occupation level.

In the future, the number of wizards will plummet!

If the magic net is lost, if it cannot be restored, or another substitute can be found, then the era of the end of the law will gradually come, and the number of spellcasters will eventually become less and less!
