Chapter 25 Magic
"Gold, wood, water, fire and earth. According to ancient Chinese legends, the heaven and earth are made up of the five elements. All things can be divided into the five elements. If this game takes this into consideration, then can I use these five elements to condense the most fundamental magic power?"
Mo Lan thought about it and realized that he would have the right to speak only after practicing.
He did what he said and extended his mental power outward. This time, Mo Lan was smart enough not to use his own body for the experiment.
The mental power extended to capture the five elements. After a while, a lot of the five elements were captured. Taking equal amounts of the five elements, Mo Lan began to compress the five elements by condensing spell nodes.
The five elements are clearly separated, and under the pressure of mental power, the five elements gradually turned into a five-colored ball.
As the pressure gradually increased, Mo Lan began to release the barriers between the five elements, allowing them to come into contact with each other, but at the moment of release.
boom!
The huge force pushed away Mo Lan's mental power, and all five elements exploded and dispersed again, turning into free elements.
After failing, Mo Lan closed his eyes and began to replay the scene in his mind. It was exactly the same as in reality, with almost no difference.
This is a method created by Mo Lan's imagination and the super computing power brought by the ink cartridge.
As long as Mo Lan has taken a look at a scene, he can replay it in his mind and can pause, fast forward, slow down, rewind, etc. at will, allowing him to easily conduct in-depth analysis from every angle.
This is also the key reason why Mo Lan dared to challenge the magic profession alone.
Mo Lan watched it over and over again, pausing, slowing down, and rewinding it countless times at the moment the five-colored ball exploded. Mo Lan carefully pondered every detail that happened inside the five-colored ball.
It was a while later that Mo Lan started the second experiment.
Condense five elements: compression, explosion, observation and summary.
Despite failures again and again, Mo Lan was not discouraged at all, and continued to analyze and summarize.
“Why do all the elements of the environment intertwine and not explode?”
With this idea in mind, Mo Lan started a new round of experiments. This time, he did not separate the five elements, but did the opposite and stirred and mixed them all together.
The colorful elements were compressed, and the same explosion occurred. It was not very powerful, but it caused the elements to disintegrate again.
It seems that elements cannot be too close to each other, otherwise they will repel each other and explode.
The same is true between the same elements .
The experiments failed again and again, which made Mo Lan temporarily put the Five Elements plan on hold and start thinking of another idea.
"In our country, earth, fire, wind and water are also very popular. Let's try them together."
After Mo Lan finished speaking, he started to condense the elements and began to compress them using four equal elements.
First came the separation experiment, which failed as usual.
What followed was a mixing and stirring experiment, which still resulted in an explosion. However, during the summary of this experiment, Mo Lan was surprised by a discovery he made.
At the moment of the explosion, a trace of gray element seemed to appear inside the elemental ball under pressure, an element that had never been seen before, like a gas.
This element appeared for only a moment and then collapsed. It was only when Mo Lan replayed the video over and over again, frame by frame, that he discovered this unexpected surprise.
"Phew, maybe I can measure a little more."
Mo Lan murmured, and the elements gathered by his mental power gradually increased. Soon, the elements were double the previous amount. After being fully mixed and stirred, the compression began.
The four-color elemental ball shrank little by little, from the size of a basketball to the size of a bowl, and from the size of a bowl to the size of a ping-pong ball.
boom!
The explosion happened again, but it did not affect Mo Lan's joy at all.
Because at the moment of the explosion, that wisp of gray gas element appeared again, proving that its existence was not an accident.
"Huh, keep going."
The experiment was carried out again and again, and the amount of elements condensed by Mo Lan became more and more, but the experiment did not make any further progress.
It seemed that no matter what Mo Lan did, there would be an explosion. In the event of an explosion, Mo Lan could not capture even a trace of the gray gas element, let alone verify its properties.
“The explosion and fusion are ultimately caused by high pressure. As long as it is under high pressure, the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water can be fused into gray gas elements in a one-to-one ratio.
So the question is, how to create this high pressure?"
Mo Lan quickly thought of a solution. He began to continuously gather the four elements and then divided his mental power into four strands.
Each spiritual force wraps around an element, and the four elements are constrained into a cylindrical shape and put together.
The rotation began slowly, and the four mental powers bent like ropes, carrying the four elements in a spiral shape.
The rotation became faster and faster, and a vortex began to appear. Slowly, a suction force emanated and the surrounding free elements were attracted.
Mo Lan selected earth, fire, wind and water and put them into the corresponding elements in the vortex. As the elements in the vortex gradually increased, the repulsive force continued to increase.
All the elements spontaneously crowded towards the only exit - the bottom of the vortex.
At the bottom, the restrained mental power was released a little bit. As Mo Lan expected, the four elements and mental power were mixed together and condensed little by little. A wisp of gray element appeared, and some excess mental power seemed to have become crystals, but dissipated in the blink of an eye.
The gray element seemed to have merged with some of Mo Lan's mental power. Under the constraints of the inner mental power characteristics, the gray element did not disintegrate, and could be controlled at will according to Mo Lan's thoughts.
An even more exciting scene appeared. Under Mo Lan's control, this wisp of gray element slowly formed a spell node, and the vortex continuously produced gray elements to fill it.
Two spell nodes, three spell nodes were formed. When the fourth spell node belonging to the fireball spell was formed, in Mo Lan's excitement, the gray element instantly turned into an equal fire element.
“I… succeeded!”
In excitement, the spell model collapsed, and even the vortex completely dissipated, but Mo Lan didn't care and exclaimed.
"From now on, this will be called magic power. It is the inner strength of the mage. Magic power!"
Mo Lan repeated the previous steps, refined the magic power again and channeled it into his right hand.
However, the moment the magic power touched his body, a sharp pain rushed to Mo Lan's brain.
Wherever the magic power passed, both the skin and muscle fibers felt a tearing pain.
They were indeed torn apart. The excited Mo Lan finally calmed down and gasped.
"A fragile body cannot bear the power of the elements. Only after becoming a warrior can one refine fighting spirit, otherwise the body will be torn apart by the fighting spirit.
Magic...same thing."
"Oh, I was so excited that I forgot the basics.
However, as a mage, do I need to improve my physical fitness?"
Mo Lan fell into silence. Without adding points to his physique, he would not be able to carry the magic power. And if he added points to his physique, the points added to his intelligence would be destined to be much less.
The mage's core attribute is intelligence, and the amount of core attributes will directly affect the mage's combat power.
"constitution……"
Mo Lan groaned.
"Can the mage's affairs... be resolved using the mage's methods?"
