Chapter 35: Those who have money and lists are called mages, those who don't are called mages.
"Then is there anyone who practices both magic and martial arts?"
Lilia's little brain was filled with questions, but Mo Cheng thought about it and replied, "Dual cultivation of magic and martial arts does exist, but it's not cost-effective for humans to do this."
The general physique of humans is weaker than that of elves, giants, dragons and other races. Elves, giants and other races can easily bear the burden of practicing both magic and martial arts. Only when humans reach the sixth stage and complete the transcendence of four or more organs, including the heart and brain, can they practice both magic and martial arts.
And this requires spending a lot of time studying martial arts and magic.
Time and life span are shortcomings for humans.
Mo Cheng pushed up his glasses and added, "Of course, I'm talking about the general theory. Some cases of natural evildoers are not included in this."
There are people who have mastered both magic and martial arts and have reached the pinnacle in both. The "Brave Man" who defeated the Eternal Night Demon King is such a person. Mo Cheng has only met him once on the battlefield.
According to Mo Cheng's memory, the quest line of [Hero] is a huge quest line in another country . It is said that it involved the joint efforts of at least three studios and teams established by wealthy people to complete it.
More importantly, the team of that giant quest line has signed a confidentiality agreement, and the bits and pieces of information on the Internet are mostly groundless speculation, with no solid evidence at all.
"Big brother, are you a master of both magic and martial arts?"
Lilia clearly remembered that Mo Cheng was not only very skilled in fighting, he had defeated a whole group of Blood Fangs and even beat away a very strong-looking person in a maid outfit. He also had the ability to use holy light, which was extremely pure.
Whether Mo Cheng is practicing both magic and martial arts, of course he is. The fire element is enough for him to disguise himself as a fire mage, but Mo Cheng doesn't want to admit it.
A magician with only one ball and no [Elemental Summoning] is no more effective than a seventy-level ranged soldier.
Until now, Mo Cheng couldn't figure out what the fire element could be used for besides burning himself to stack rage. Could it be used to light a cigarette?
Mo Cheng simply changed the subject he didn't want to discuss: "Ahem, let's talk about your problem as a spellcaster."
Spellcasters are not limited to magicians. There are also those who tap into their own extraordinary bloodlines and claim to be natural spellcasters called [Sorcerers].
A "magician" who studies the fusion of magic and goblin machinery to form "magic technology".
By forming a contract with creatures from another world, a [Summoner] is summoned to fight the enemy.
A [Battle Mage] who uses magical elements to perform martial arts and elemental combat skills to suppress the enemy in close combat.
A branch of [Warlock], possessing the blood of the inhabitants of the lower abyss, [Demon Warlock] who summons demons.
And the Necromancer who studies the boundary between life and death and often makes major breakthroughs in medicine, but is not welcomed by the public.
All these various categories are collectively referred to as [Spellcasters].
After briefly introducing the more common spellcaster professions, Mo Cheng asked Lilia: "Have you ever considered what kind of spellcaster you want to be?"
Just by looking at Lilia's blank eyes, Mo Cheng knew that she probably hadn't thought about this aspect. Although the Principality of Andair has popularized compulsory education, the teaching staff in the border areas is really difficult to compare with the internal areas.
At the same time, with such teaching staff, Lilia was able to build two floors of palace-style meditation, which further demonstrated her qualifications.
Mo Cheng rubbed his temple. Although it was a bit troublesome to explain in detail, at least he had something to do. The journey these days was really boring.
"First, let's put aside the warlocks and demon warlocks that need bloodlines. Only after you go to school for testing can we know if you have the corresponding bloodlines to develop."
"Summoner, a typical sewer class, I suggest you exclude it. In domestic competitions, the top 20 is the best, and in international competitions, it's better not to have a sewer class that can't even make it into the top 50."
"Battle mages can fight, but it's difficult to advance. It requires talent, not just magic talent. It's useless if ."
"Being a wizard requires an effective combination of physical, chemical, and magical reactions, and a good physique."
Mo Cheng took a deep look at Lilia and said, "This thing is like Nobel playing with explosives. It's easy to kill yourself."
Although she couldn't quite understand Mo Cheng's comments, Lilia still understood that after eliminating so many options, this was the best choice for her. "So, I should choose to be a mage?"
"There are several types of mages." Mo Cheng counted with his fingers, "The traditional classical nine-system mages cast spells through the network [Magic Web] that is spontaneously formed by the environment. The advantages are that the spells are powerful, there are many types of spells that are suitable for various environments, and they can exchange scientific research results for money. The disadvantages are that it is difficult to improve, and it depends on the environment. Once the [Magic Web] is suppressed, it will be dragged down, and it costs money."
"The Elemental Mage is a new profession developed by the Principality of Aundair. It stores elements and controls them with mental power. Its advantages are fast formation and improvement, and good combat power in the early stage. Its disadvantages are that it does not have a stable way to reach the final stage, and is more dependent on the environment. The difficulty of controlling water elements in a desert environment increases by at least 20 percentage points. It relies purely on mental power and magic power to shape the elements, and is mocked by the classical nine-series mages as a migrant worker caster, and it costs money."
To some extent, this profession is the result of a lot of research by those who wanted to become spellcasters but did not have the talent to become classical nine-element mages. At the same time, some classical nine-element mages also joined the research and development for the sake of their untalented offspring, and finally the profession of [Elemental Mage] appeared.
"Transforming mages, through shamanic and necromancy human transformation technology, powerful monster organs are transplanted into the human body to form a new system to gain spellcasting ability. The advantage is that there is a stable assembly line project. Some countries' armies are using this method to train spellcasters, which is effective quickly. The disadvantage is that they are prone to sudden death due to rejection. To be promoted, they need to continue to transform. Sooner or later, they will die suddenly due to rejection to the limit, and it costs money."
"Starry Sky Mage, who transforms the light of stars into magic power, is good at astrology divination and starry sky magic. His advantage is that the strength of his spells will automatically increase by two levels when the stars are together at night. His disadvantage is that at a low level, he can hardly use spells with more than ten bytes during the day, and he is seriously disturbed by the sun. The highest level can only reach the [Moon] level. If he reaches the [Sun] level, he will explode. And..."
“It costs money.”
Lilia helped to fill in the last shortcoming of Mo Cheng, "Why do these professions cost money?"
"Because only spellcasters with money and spell tables can be called magicians, and those without money and spell tables are called magic grandsons."
