Chapter 10 Leaving the Wizard Tower
Even though they are all level zero spells, the spells recorded in the scroll are all spells that wizards have deduced and passed down from generation to generation. They are quite stable in nature, and the spells themselves do not have any major problems.
But the Thunderclap Technique is different.
That was something that Luo Ang himself replicated from his own white eagle bloodline. So far, Luo Ang has only used it once. He doesn't know what the consequences of this spell are, how it works, or what its model is.
To use an analogy:
The six spells on the scroll are all cars produced on the assembly line. Although their speed is limited, they are very well organized and their safety is beyond doubt. They all undergo a series of tests when they leave the factory.
As for the Thunderclap Technique that Luo Ang himself comprehended, it was something that a folk scientist made by hand based on the shape of a sports car. Its hardness and speed might be better, but whether the internal parts were standard or whether the vehicle itself was safe was another matter. In short, it looked similar, so he just drove it on the road.
If you cast a spell in the normal way, constructing a model and then casting the spell, then the power of the spell will naturally be as strong as possible. Whether the model structure is standard or not, or whether there will be any negative effects, doesn't matter... A good spell is one that can achieve the desired goal in the most efficient way.
However, if it is to be left in a temporary spell slot that can have a significant impact on the soul, then the Thunderclap spell, whose safety is difficult to guarantee, is not a proper choice.
If... there really is some hidden danger in the model of the Thunderclap spell, and it collapses in that temporary spell slot, the consequences would be something that Loon would absolutely not want to bear.
Given the choice, Loen was unwilling to take such a risk.
"You can't choose Thunderclap!"
"At the very least, this first temporary spell slot can't be for Thunderclap." Loon quickly made up his mind.
—If I can ensure the stability and safety of this Thunderclap spell when I become a fourth-class wizard apprentice, then it would be a good choice to include this Thunderclap spell in my temporary spell slot.
But before that, this Thunderclap spell absolutely cannot be entered into the temporary spell slot.
"I wonder how other wizards perfect a spell when they're working on it." Loon flipped through the wizarding treatise in his hands over and over again.
What he lacks most right now is knowledge about wizards.
Use your past life's education as an analogy.
This book, "Introduction to Wizardry," is a kindergarten textbook.
Having completed his meditation and become a first-class wizard apprentice, he was essentially a junior high school student.
From kindergarten to junior high school, there is a period of elementary school knowledge in between... and Luo Ang is currently missing this extremely important period of knowledge.
"What's the best way to fill in this gap in my knowledge?" Luo Ang pondered.
Although he was already a first-class wizard apprentice and had stepped into the wizarding world, his understanding of the wizarding world was only a tiny, almost non-existent amount, obtained from the old man's diary.
What is the current state of the wizarding world and wizarding community? Are there any other wizards around here? What is the situation of the Bird School wizarding apprentices he mentioned doing business with, as mentioned in his diary? What is their relationship like? Do they have any way of contacting each other? And what about the old man himself? Does he have any other friends? Loon knew absolutely nothing.
"No!" Upon realizing this, Luo Ang was immediately filled with dread.
"We can't stay in this beacon of prosperity!"
At first, in Loen's eyes, the only enemy was the old man.
With the old man dead, everything will be fine.
Especially after supplementing his knowledge about wizards in the library, he even considered taking over the Prosperity Beacon as a spoil of war and using it as his base, so he could cram on his knowledge of wizards and develop his power there in peace.
But now, Luo Ang suddenly came to his senses.
According to the old man's diary, he was just one link at the very bottom of a chain of interests.
Now that the old man is dead, the chain has broken.
How could the other wizard apprentices involved in this chain of interests not take a look?
"We have to go!" At this moment, Luo Ang didn't have time to think about other issues. He immediately found a rope, tied the seven spell scrolls together, wrapped them around his waist, covered them with his wizard's robe, and then went to the old man's bedroom.
The old man wrote clearly in his diary that after his business as a wizard apprentice stabilized, he spent a lot of money to buy a storage bag—Loon didn't know how much that "lot of money" was.
But he knew very well just how important a storage bag was that could hold things and make it easy to move around!
In the novels of my past life, a person who didn't have a storage bag wasn't even qualified to go out on an adventure. Otherwise, how much could a person carry on that long journey by himself, relying solely on his own shoulders and hands?
Having found the old man's storage bag, and just as he was about to pack up all the books in the library and take them away, Luo Ang was shocked to discover that the storage bag was sealed by the old man's secret magic mark.
Luo Ang himself is also a first-class wizard apprentice. If given time, he could naturally erase this secret mark. But right now, what he lacks most is time.
Holding the storage bag, which was about the size of a purse, Luo Ang looked at the numerous experimental records in the library and felt an overwhelming heartache.
—Loon knew all too well the value of the records and data from these experiments.
He hadn't looked at these experimental records before, not because he didn't want to, but because he needed to complete the meditation method first before reviewing them.
The more educated a person is, the clearer they are about the value of this thing.
After deciding to leave the Beacon of Prosperity, the thing Loen most wanted to take was this huge pile of experimental records.
But now...
Luo Ang looked at these experimental records with great reluctance.
Since we can't take them with us, no matter how reluctant we are, these experimental records must be destroyed.
After all, a significant portion of these records originated from his own materials.
He was absolutely unwilling to expose this massive amount of data related to himself to others.
Similarly, he didn't have extra time to scrutinize the records that didn't contain his own data.
Therefore, the only option is to destroy them all.
They poured kerosene into the library.
As the flames ignited, Luo Ang's heart couldn't help but clench and throb with phantom pain.
That's all his hard work!
"Oh, and those apprentices in the dungeon too."
Before leaving, Luo Ang finally remembered his "classmates" who were locked in the dungeon.
It had been a while since the old man died—and his classmates, locked in the dungeon, were all starving and gasping for breath.
Fortunately, they are all still alive.
Without paying any attention to anything else, once he confirmed that they were still alive, he knocked hard on the door to let his hungry classmates know that the dungeon door had been opened. Then he placed the book "Introduction to Wizardry" in front of the dungeon door and, taking advantage of the fog under the cover of night, left the lighthouse by hiding in the clouds.
