Chapter 103: The Gem That Absorbs Magic Power

Chapter 103: The Gem That Absorbs Magic Power

The colour of the gemstone was conspicuous, and it looked like a scarlet liquid was quietly moving inside.

It is exactly the same shape and size as the blue gemstone on the ring that Jon is now carrying, only with a big colour difference.

When Jon took it out of the book, it wasn't cold in his hand, and even had some warmth to it.

He did not directly embed the gem into the empty slot of the ring, but carefully flipped up the information in front of him, carefully reading through the notes left by Adrien.

He gave this gemstone different characteristics from the other four, it can absorb the magic power of magical substances to store, while under normal circumstances it is the same as the one on Jon's ring, also ice-blue in colour, turning red means that the magic power stored in it falls under full load status.

It is necessary to mention that the magic power that supports the wizard's spell casting in this world is not similar to the blue bar of the mage in the game, it's merely a source of energy to use magic spells.

It represents a much more complex significance, if you insist on following the rules of conventional mages in the game, magic power is actually more like magic intensity.

The stronger the magic power, the more powerful magic you can use and learn, as well as the original power of the average spell, becoming stronger, but the specific limit to the number of spells cast by the wizard will come to physical capacity, too much spell casting will make the wizard feel mentally and physically exhausted, but there is no such thing as magic power exhaustion.

For example, when casting a spell, whether it's a spell or a transfiguration spell, the magic in the wizard's body is mobilized to affect the world, and the magic in the wizard's body will be withdrawn, but there will be no reduction in the total amount in the wizard's body, and the power of the wizard's spell will remain as strong as the magic he can control.

There is no such thing as the more magical power the more powerful the spell is, in fact, it has a lot to do with the emotion and intent used to cast the spell.

In short, the factors behind the power and weakness of a spell cast by a wizard are very complex, and there are many things involved.

And this gem that Jon got now, can absorb the magic power released by other wizards when casting spells or making magic items, and then reinforce the total magic power when Jon casts spells as a whole by storing it, to achieve the effect of enhancing the spells.

And since this gem is bound to a single magic spell, it means that at the time the spell used with it is added, it can only be used with that spell.

This is enough to see how much magic it can hold. Many of these restricted books that are stored in the restricted section contain powerful magic, because the authors who made the books are quite powerful themselves, and most of the restricted section was basically drained by the gem.

But this is obviously an unforeseen circumstance, from what Jon can see in Adrien's notes; if he puts the gem embedded in the ring, the magic that the ring can absorb, at most, only the sum of his own magic power plus the original magic in the gem, and it can't absorb any higher than this value.

In other words, if you ask Jon to carry an empty gem to the library to absorb, he may not even be able to absorb a book's worth of magic, after all, he is only 12 years old, and the magic in his body is far from growing to the most abundant point.

Anyone who can write a grimoire and leave magic on it must have stronger magic than his.

But now the magic power inside the gem is basically equivalent to the state of full capacity, and his own magic power added together definitely far exceeds that of more than 99% of wizards in the magical world, which means he can use the gem to solve the three portraits in the tower.

After all, the three portraits are all practically magical creations.

After reading all the notes at the front of the book, Jon's furrowed brow relaxed, but there was no expression of joy on his face.

He was expressionless, and once again turned the book from beginning to end, and finally fixed his gaze on one of the inconspicuous words.

[...The absorption ability of this gem is valid only on the signed magic pact itself, but not on the person who signed the contract- ]
