บท 2: Chapter 2: Magic is Science!
Did I really travel to a magical world?
After a brief moment of shock, Lynn quickly gathered himself. After all, he had traveled through time and space and couldn't even determine if he was still in the original universe. Nothing seemed impossible anymore.
When it came to magic, Lynn was naturally extremely interested. His strong desire to explore even temporarily outweighed the fear brought by being hunted by the church!
As a Wizard Apprentice who had been training for just over half a year, Carl knew very little about magic, only five kinds.
Among them, the Basic Material Decompilation Skill, Condensing Water Technique, and Mage's Hand were the most fundamental zero-circle spells. Although important, they had no offensive capabilities.
The higher-level one-circle spell, Fireball Technique, required the use of corresponding magical materials. As for the other one-circle spell, Frost Blade, Carl hadn't managed to master it yet.
Lynn reached down and fumbled with the pouch hanging at his waist, taking out all of his limited assets one by one.
Two red fire stones, three Cas silver coins, more than ten copper coins, seven drafts with complex magical formulas drawn on them, a yellowed Elemental Analysis book, and a small bag of gray powder - the casting material for Fireball Technique, Red Fire Embers.
Lynn picked up a small pinch of the fine powder, feeling a surge of excitement. Carl's memories contained the complete casting steps for Fireball Technique.
First, use the Basic Material Decompilation Skill to analyze the casting materials. Then, use Mage's Hand to make the Red Fire Embers vibrate at a specific frequency to trigger the magic.
The entire process sounded cumbersome, but the most time-consuming part of analyzing the casting materials could be done in advance. Once skilled enough, the Fireball Technique could be triggered in just one second...
Lynn was eager to experience the supernatural power, but he ultimately held back.
This small pinch of Red Fire Embers, worth five Cas silver coins, was only enough to cast the Fireball Technique three times. It couldn't be wasted carelessly. For the first spell, it was better to choose something simpler.
After thinking for a moment, Lynn chose the Condensing Water Technique as the target for his first spell.
As one of the few essential zero-circle spells, if the Basic Material Decompilation Skill was key to using magic materials and Mage's Hand was a wizard's best assistant, then the Condensing Water Technique was an apprentice's introductory lesson!
This basic magic, like its higher-level counterpart Frost Blade, did not require pre-prepared casting materials, or rather, the casting materials could be directly extracted from the elemental world!
Following the method given in his memory, Lynn closed his eyes and meditated. Perhaps due to Carl's excellent foundation, he successfully opened the door to a new world in just two or three seconds!
With his eyes closed, he saw an incredibly magical world. Under the sensing of his spiritual power, Lynn could clearly "see" countless magical elements glowing with faint light filling the entire room.
Billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions?
No, their vast number couldn't be calculated with values alone; they shone like stars in the dark universe.
Most of these elements were very active, constantly changing their positions. The most abundant element was called Selu, making up about seventy percent of the total, and was referred to as a useless element by his mentor, Kro.
The magnificent scene left Lynn deeply impressed. It took him a long time to remember to focus his attention on the use of magic.
The steps to cast the Condensing Water Technique were very simple. He just needed to extract two elements related to water and fuse them at a ratio of two to one.
The first type of element had a relatively high proportion in the elemental world, about twenty to thirty percent, while the second type of element was rarer and required extra effort to find.
Thanks to Carl's obsession with magic, these basic spells had been practiced hundreds of times in the past. The foundation was solid, and Lynn quickly grasped the method after initial discomfort.
However, the casting process made him feel strangely familiar.
When Lynn opened his eyes again, a marble-sized water sphere was hovering in his palm, supported by the Mage's Hand.
"Very good, it worked!" Lynn's lips curled into a slight smile, but he lost focus momentarily, causing the water sphere to disintegrate and drip through his fingers.
Like being doused with a bucket of cold water, Lynn quickly freed himself from the joy of successfully casting the spell.
As a Wizard Apprentice, he was still being hunted by the church. How could he be complacent over such a small achievement?
Not to mention that this marble-sized water sphere was practically useless in combat...
It was barely enough to quench an enemy's thirst!
However, he had seen his mentor Kro use the Condensing Water Technique as a precursor to cast the two-circle spell Group - Cold Ice Blade in battle.
Dozens of fist-sized water spheres instantly condensed, then transformed into solid rhomboid ice blades that shot like locusts towards the attacking bandits.
In just one strike, the attacking enemies were completely defeated!
Thinking of this, Lynn planned to sense the elemental world and try again.
Perhaps due to the fusion of memories after the time travel, Lynn's spiritual power was much more abundant than Carl's, and he could also mobilize more magic power.
Using the Condensing Water Technique just now had caused him negligible loss. He had a premonition that he could achieve more.
Lynn closed his eyes and quickly entered the elemental world again. This time, he didn't rush to cast the Condensing Water Technique. Instead, he tried to use his spiritual power to influence every kind of element he could find around him.
