The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 249 Shadow Witchcraft

This battle wizard notebook, which is almost as thick as the Encyclopedia of Herbs, now has only seventeen pages left, and the content of the seventeen pages is not coherent, because there is no complete context, so it is very difficult to read. It is not difficult to see from the breakage of the damaged pages that someone deliberately tore off those pages. The reason may be related to the complex magic runes composed of Turing roots hidden on the pages.

The moment he opened the wizard's notebook, what Leo first noticed was not the content written on the pages, but the intentionally hidden psionic fluctuations emanating from each page.

The magic runes on the pages that Leo could see through his spiritual vision, excluding the stone ball used to imprison the Eye of Reality, the magic runes carved in a special way on the pages in his hand should be his own. One of the most complicated Turing radicals I have ever seen, consisting of fifty-seven different Turing radicals. And these fifty-seven Turing radicals are not all, because of the combination, these Turing radicals are constantly recombined, and new Turing radicals are evolved, so in the end the Turing radicals contained in this magic rune The root is probably an extremely large number.

Although Leo doesn't understand the function of these magic runes, he can be sure that each page is a complete powerful witchcraft. Judging from the damage of the notes, the method of using this witchcraft should be torn off. , evoked in some way.

It can be seen that this notebook is not like the wizard's notebook he saw before, it only records the knowledge of the wizard, this wizard's notebook is more likely to be a magic book whose production method has long since disappeared.

The earliest record about the magic book is the wizard's notebook of the wilderness wizard. In that notebook, it mentioned a kind of wizard's magic book that wizards used before the tower. It's just that the wizard of the wilderness didn't mention the content of this wizard's strange object in detail, but simply mentioned that the method of making the magic book has long been lost in the tower.

Afterwards, Leo saw information about magic books again, among the miscellaneous books purchased by Hushang Town, one of which recorded the deeds of the founder of the Wizards Association, the first generation of the first chief wizard. In the book, it records the most frequently used magical objects of the first chief, and among them is the dark magic book made by himself, and some functions of the magic book are also mentioned.

The biggest function of the magic book is not to record the knowledge of the wizard, but to store the most commonly used and powerful witchcraft by the wizard. Through the special power of the magic book, the wizard can consume any spell-casting materials without any preparation in advance. For example, under the premise of chanting spells, casting seals and other spellcasting methods, use these extremely high-level powerful witchcraft.

According to records, the first chief at that time used his dark magic book to instantly cast a powerful magic called the dark sky, and sent tens of thousands of dream spirits into a place called the dark field in the blink of an eye. Kill each other until they are all dead.

It is not difficult to see that the wizard's notebook in Leo's hand should be a magic book, but unfortunately, the person who got this book before did not know the correct usage of this wizard's wonder, but he figured out a one-time magic book. The usage of the magic book completely ruined it.

From this point of view, there may be a huge difference between witches and wizards in the Witch Group. The so-called witchcraft they perform may be their own innate abilities, and they do not need to learn a lot of wizard knowledge and practice various witchcraft like wizards , to master the ability to cast spells, otherwise, Su would never give him such a precious magic book so easily. Perhaps in Su's view, this is just a notebook recording wizards' fighting skills.

Now the only seventeen pages of mysterious witchcraft left in this magic book cannot be used by Leo temporarily, and may not be used for a long time in the future. After all, it is very difficult to decipher the magic runes on it, even if he Have an extraordinary brain.

Compared to deciphering the seventeen pages of magic runes, it might be easier for Leo to find out how to make a magic book from this broken notebook.

However, the original intention of obtaining this magic book in the first place, the knowledge of battle wizards recorded on those seventeen pages may be what Leo can use now.

Obviously, the wizard who made the magic book and the person who recorded the knowledge of the battle wizard were not the same person. Although the content of these seventeen pages was very obscure and difficult to read because of the lack of context, Leo was still able to analyze from these obscure words. Come up with something useful.

Examples include a type of witchcraft known as metamagic spells and a combat instance of a combat wizard.

This kind of super magic technique is derived from the rune witchcraft of the tower wizard. The magic runes and magic circles that Leo has mastered are all classified into the rune witchcraft, and this kind of super magic technique is to use runes Witchcraft A method of giving wizards abilities similar to witches' natural abilities. Through this kind of super magic technique, wizards can perform some pre-prepared witchcraft anytime and anywhere, some of which are similar to the functions of magic books, but this method is tattooed on the body and exists permanently.

What is the name of this super magic technique? For magic tattoo.

This kind of magic tattoo needs to be prepared with a very special tattoo potion. Fortunately, although the materials needed for the potion are precious, they can still be found. Most of the herbs have been artificially cultivated, and a few rare mineral materials cost a little money. able to buy.

It's a pity that the magic tattoo production method recorded now seems to be a low-level magic tattoo. Not only the witchcraft used for magic tattoos can only choose those low-level witchcraft, and even the number is limited. The current magic tattoo The figure can only accommodate three kinds of witchcraft, and a wizard can only get two such magical tattoos on his body.

Although there is no record of the adverse effects of magical tattoos that exceed the limit in those notes, according to Leo's understanding of witchcraft and psionic power, any use of this supernatural power beyond the limit will definitely have consequences. disastrous.

However, for any wizard, the current world of Velen has six kinds of witchcraft that can be cast at any time like natural abilities, which is enough, and there is no need to think of ways to add more magic tattoos.

The only thing to pay attention to is the choice of the six kinds of witchcraft, because once the magic tattoo is engraved on the body, if you want to modify it, it may not be as simple as the tattoo.

On the pages of the book, there is only one method mentioned about the removal of magic tattoos, that is the Styx water, and Leo has no idea what the Styx water is, but it literally translates to the meaning of the river of death.

In the battle example of a combat wizard recorded in the notes, the combat wizard's fighting style and the six witchcrafts he used for magic tattoos were listed in detail. It happened that Leo knew all of these six witchcrafts.

Six kinds of witchcraft, such as weakening ray, silent phantom, trance, ghost hand, mirror image and exhaustion, are the magic tattoo witchcraft chosen by this battle wizard, and these six witchcraft are all low-level witchcraft. Based on the current level of wizards, as long as they are normal wizards, they all know these six kinds of witchcraft.

And with the help of these six low-level witchcraft, this combat wizard was able to create an illusory field around his body, making all those who broke in gradually weaken in the illusory world, and eventually died.

In the recorded example, the battle wizard used these six low-level witchcraft to deal with a monster named Bayetta, and consumed the monster alive in the illusory realm.

Leo happened to have read about Bayetta in a collection of folklore called Velen. If what was written in that book is true, there must be four to four hundred people for that monster named Bayetta. With the power of a fifth-level psyker, even if he wants to kill such a monster now, it will take a lot of effort. It can be seen that the effect of this magical tattoo is definitely not just the effect of the six low-level witchcraft, and it must also hide the mystery that Leo has not discovered for the time being.

Leo did not intend to combine his magic tattoo in the way of this battle wizard. He had his own considerations. At the same time, he also felt that there was still room for improvement in this magic tattoo, so he needed a period of research before he could make a decision. What is the magic tattoo engraved on his body in the end.

However, because of the record of the battle process in this instance, Leo also understood the way of fighting wizards in the tower battle in the past. Simply put, wizards stay in a safe place, use witchcraft to control, weaken and kill Enemies, only as a last resort, wizards will use those witchcraft that have obvious lethality but will reveal their location to confront the enemy head-on.

Although Leo does not agree with this fighting method in his heart, he has to admit that this fighting method is the most effective and safest method, even if he encounters a strong enemy, he can retreat calmly. Unlike him, although he will use some assassination methods to deal with the enemy at the beginning, but once he confronts the enemy head-on, he will rush to the forefront and fight in close combat. Not even a chance to escape.

"It seems that there are indeed some problems with my fighting style." Leo carefully analyzed his own fighting style, and felt that it was necessary to improve it and formulate a new set of fighting procedures in line with his own abilities.

Leo, who had already made his decision, kept trying to improve his fighting style, and those Black Forest monsters and family members who tried to attack the refugees were the best targets for him to test his improved fighting style. .

After each battle, he was able to find a lot of areas for improvement, and he also found that many of the witchcraft he mastered were powerful, but not suitable for his own fighting style, and some of them were mediocre, but they could match his own. The fighting styles fit together perfectly.

And as he continued to improve his fighting style and found his own sorcery, he found that his fighting style was more and more like the fighting style of the Dark Star Shadow Blade.

The Dark Stars are a very unique alien race in the universe where the Earth Federation is located. Their home planet was destroyed by an adult star-eating whale when the earth civilization was still a primitive tribe, leaving less than five There are 100,000 people, and these 500,000 people form the most famous wandering race in the universe, the Dark Star Tribe.

Although the home planet of the Dark Star people was destroyed and the race was almost extinct, this does not mean that the Dark Star people are weak. There are two people who have evolved to the level of Omega-level advanced creatures, and everyone in the whole family has more than two levels of psionic power, which is one of the few psionic races in the universe.

Just like several other psychic races, the Dark Stars are also the key research objects of various alien civilizations, especially paying the greatest attention to their various psychic combat units, and all of these psychic combat units are The Shadow Blade, which is composed of five-level psykers, has attracted the most attention.

The Shadow Blade is the special operations force of the Dark Stars. Their mission is the same as Leo's. When a war breaks out, they sneak into the enemy's military base or rear area to engage in sabotage and assassination. It's just that the difference between the two is that one simply uses technological weapons to fight, while the other relies on its own spiritual power.

Shadow Blade's most famous psychic powers are called Shadow Walk and Shadow Realm. As the name suggests, Shadow Walk is able to move silently between the shadows of any object, and even attack the target through the shadow itself, while Shadow Realm is even more Powerful, directly send the target area into a shadow subspace, and use the power of the subspace itself to destroy the target and everything around it.

Among the witchcrafts, there are witchcrafts similar to Shadow Walking and Shadow Realm, but the power and effect are much weaker, and they are all high-level witchcrafts. Leo only knows the names and effects, but does not know how to use them. .

But Leo was able to use some of the low-level witchcraft he now mastered, combined with the power of nightmares, to imitate the virtual and real state of the monsters in the Black Forest and the family members, and formed his own shadow witchcraft. He was able to use shadows like the Dark Star people. Kills targets silently from a distance. Because this kind of shadow witchcraft was created by Leo during this period, many places are not perfect, and there are loopholes. After perfecting his own shadow witchcraft, his strength is definitely not weaker than the Shadow Blade of the Dark Star.

Now, Leo has become more and more fond of his new fighting style. Just now, he used the shadow dagger improved from the two witchcrafts of mage's hand and shadow thorn, and directly hid in a dark place more than two hundred meters away. The dozens of Black Forest monsters waiting for an opportunity were easily dealt with.

This is also one of the reasons why he is becoming more and more accustomed to the new way of fighting. The shadow witchcraft integrated with the power of nightmare can ignore the subspace state between the virtual and the real monsters in the Black Forest, and kill those monsters just like normal assassination , the only flaw is that the black forest monster in that special state will not leave any high-energy matter, but the corpse will disappear directly.
