Age of Adepts

Chapter 13: Witchcraft Simulation

Three days later.

Grimm, curly and red-eyed, sighed and closed the book.

Just now, his mind finally sounded the long-awaited chip prompt sound.

“Tsu, Flame Arrow data model has been built successfully! ”

It's not easy!

Unlike the first build, the burning hand belongs to a witchcraft that Grim has fully mastered, and as long as he is able to apply it over and over again, the chip can simulate its model in Grim's spiritual world by precisely controlling mental shocks.

So everything seems so relaxed and comfortable.

But this flame arrow is not really grasped by Grimm, and even a successful implementation cannot be achieved, so the mimicry, recording and storage functions of the chip are useless.

So Grimm had to find another way to engrave all the witchcraft principles and techniques associated with flame arrows in his mind, and then leave it to the chip to summarize and organize the data and analyze a method that best suited him.

The data model established in this way cannot replace the true mental force model and belongs to a special nature of the surgical experiment.

Grimm pinched his forehead, stabilized his mind, and silenced: “Let the simulation begin! ”

Dip, with a crisp ringing, Grimm cast a body fiction exactly like his, and then sang the magic spell of the flaming arrows as required by the data model.

Through chip communication, Grim's mind and phantom coincide. As the spell continues to change the frequency of mental forces, phantom hands dance lightly, guiding the converging elements energy to shape the appearance of flame arrows.

Unfortunately, by the time the fourteenth Festival of Spells was sung, the phantom gestures were clearly half-packed due to unskilled manipulation. So in Grimm's spiritual world, half the flame arrows shaped burst into arrows, and the fierce flame shockwave instantly swallowed up the phantom.

If you put it in the real world, Grimm probably won't be able to keep half the room. In this illusory world of spiritual power simulation, the whole scene returns to its original state as the light shadow swings violently, but the flame burst of wonderful uninspiring instantly disappears.

Though it has long been known that everything that happens here is virtual, Grim-controlled fiction still cannot bear to wipe out a cold sweat that does not exist.

Watching a large fire burst in front of his eyes, instantly swallowing his body, even with Grimmna's tough little heart, he couldn't help but miss a halfbeat.

Grimm had just immersed his whole mind in the fiction in order to get a more realistic sense of the whole process of application. So you can say that what just happened is false, or you can say that a false truth has happened.

Instead of rushing for a second practice, Grimm closed her eyes and again stroked the process in her mind to determine the true cause of the error. This opened his eyes violently and began a second simulation.

Unfortunately, it still failed! This time it was a failure on the mental fitting of the 17th syllable. The frequency of mental shock was not adjusted in time, and a small half of the mental force model was built to burst again. So the flames of elements swallowed Grimm's body again.

The light shakes and the scene goes back.

Soon, the spiritual world returned to its original state.

Grimm laughed helplessly and precipitated his mood. Soon, the empty spiritual world sounded his powerful chanting voice again.

Explosion...

endless explosion!

The reason for each error is the same, either the gesture fails to keep up with the syllable of the spell or the mental strength is not in place. In short, no matter what the problem is, there is only one result: endless explosions.

This has to be in the real world, and Grimm's fragile bones are probably already blown into bone powder. How can you sit quietly at a wooden table and be stunned like this?

After so many exercises, his limited mental power has long been squeezed.

When his mental strength was completely exhausted, he struggled to crawl to bed and sleep. And once he wakes up and replenishes his spirit, he first goes to the restaurant to eat and drink, fills his stomach, and then goes back to his residence for the next round of spiritual world simulation.

With the harshness and tenacity of this tooth bite, Grimm finally successfully completed the simulation of Flame Arrow in an accidental fit of heart.

His tears could hardly resist flowing as the flaming arrow, the statically burning element, condensed into a magical arrow, stably hovered between Grimm's hands. One heartbeat, the next second, the giant elemental flame swallowed him up again.

This time, however, instead of being discouraged, he laughed out loud and swiftly before his mental phantom was destroyed.

……

Grimm sat at the wooden table with his closed eyes violently open, sending an irresistible joy from inside.

“Chip, has the image just been archived? ”

“The image has been archived and can be called at any time...”

Grimm nodded calmly, but the tighter he gripped his fists showed his excitement.

This new feature of the chip has helped him so much.

Without the virtual spiritual world built by chips, Grimm would have to go to the Witchcraft Practice Room and study it over and over again to explore this flame arrow witchcraft. He must bear the mental and physical repercussions of every exercise failure. And every serious practice takes a period of conditioning and rest to recover, which will undoubtedly also severely slow down the learning of witchcraft.

So among the high tower apprentices, only one or two junior apprentices mastered witchcraft still make up the majority, which is the most important reason.

Of course, it is not ruled out that someone inside the apprentice is hiding a hand and is not showing his true strength. After all, each apprentice's research direction and learning progress are secret, and it is highly taboo to poke at others' privacy at will.

But there are still a handful of guys with the heart, and many more are bad luck struggling at the bottom of the apprenticeship. Seriously, Grimm used to be one of them.

But now that the chip is on, Grim feels like it's time to fly.

“Chip, pass me that image you just made! ”

… With the emergence of a stream of data, Grimm's mind once again mapped a "self” in a serious application. And Grimm's mind is immersed in the phantom, and over and over again he experiences the whole process of application. Each of these details, including the subtle spiritual changes of the time, is intact.

Though it was a spiritual simulation at the time, Grim's mind was perfected in full accordance with normal practice, so besides the absence of real elemental perfusion, it was almost no different from real-world practice.

It is self-evident that this image of successful practice is of great auxiliary significance to Grimm's smooth mastery of witchcraft. It can help Grimm to mill water for at least six months to a year, and avoid the painful turnaround of injuries — nurturing injuries - re-nurturing injuries - which are essential.

Having been able to succeed once or twice in hundreds of exercises suggests that Grimm's knowledge reserves and strength are already able to support Flame Arrow's manipulation floor. So now the only obstacle to his mastery of the flame arrow is mastery.

And that's exactly what chips are all about!

Over and over again, Grimm hurriedly left the house and rushed to the sorcery practice room to make sure he had mastered all of the obstacles.

This is also an inconvenience for the Wizard Apprentice.

Their mastery of witchcraft is too low and the consequences of practicing unfamiliar witchcraft in their homes are too severe, so they can only afford to rent a high tower witchcraft practice room to experiment with their new witchcraft. So, the mastery of every new sorcery is supported by a lot of knowledge and a lot of money.

……

The Tall Tower sorcery practice room is located on the third floor and is a special area created specifically.

Although they are members of the tower, the area of activity to which these sorcerer apprentices are entitled is only 1—3 floors away. The first floor is mainly an area of activity for apprentices who have just joined the high tower, the second floor is a living and entertainment area for official apprentices of witchcraft, while the third floor is a public place for them to experiment and practice witchcraft.

Faced with official apprenticeships are libraries, dispensary rooms, summoning rooms, alchemy laboratories, sorcery practice rooms, seal rooms, curse altars, voodoo altars, magic potion cultivation rooms… but lone wolves like Grimm, who are traditionally unaccompanied, only go to libraries and sorcery practice rooms. As for other places, he could not get involved without strong financial support.

It's dinner time of the day, so there aren't many apprentices left here.

Grimm hastily paid Am 10 gold coins to manage the sorcery practice room, which earned him a special card. With this card, he owns a practice room for an hour.

For a wizard apprentice, an hour is not a short time. Their poor spiritual strength can't even sustain half an hour of wild bombing. Grimm is able to drain his spiritual strength in half an hour if he squanders uncontrollably.

When Grimm followed the symbol on the card to the corresponding stone door, lifted the card and swayed gently, the heavy stone door opened silently.

The so-called sorcery practice room is actually just a simple stone room of more than 40 square meters, but there is a huge stone human target on the other side of the stone room, and the dark material suggests that it is made of obsidian obsidian that is annoying.

With the strength of the Wizard Apprentice, the low order witchcraft tested was simply not enough to destroy such a sturdy statue of the Annoying Stone, which is why it became the most durable target of witchcraft in the practice room.

Of course, those apprentices who need to practice curse and special witchcraft will only have to spend an extra sum to buy the right artifacts to practice, otherwise they will have to sneak outside the tower to practice those weird witchcraft that require secrecy.
