Chapter 77: Calamitous and Arcane Armor
Chapter 77: Calamitous and Arcane Armor
"Damn it! Who is so wicked as to throw watermelon rinds down here?!" Fang Yu and Shen Shuyao had just taken their things and were leaving when they heard a scream from the fat boss behind them.
The fat boss who was walking around picking up rings had a too big belly and he wasn't paying attention. He stepped on a piece of watermelon rind that flew down from somewhere and fell hard on his butt.
"Ouch, it hurts so much." The fat boss rubbed his butt and got up from the ground.
As soon as he stood up, a little brown Teddy dog jumped out from the shop next door, hugged the fat boss's calf and started to straighten his waist.
The fat boss' face turned black and he kicked the little Teddy bear out. As soon as the little Teddy bear let out a howl, a young woman in scantily clad clothes rushed out from the shop next door.
"You dare to kick my son!?" The young woman reached out and grabbed, leaving three bloody marks on the fat boss' face.
The fat boss was so angry. I was the one who acted recklessly usually, but today someone was being unreasonable with me? You are right to walk your dog without a leash?
The fat boss slapped the young woman in the face.
"You dare to hit my wife!" After hitting the younger one, the older one comes. Before the fat boss could see clearly, he was kicked to the ground by a bald man who came out right after him.
"Hey, yo, stop hitting me, big brother, stop hitting me. I surrender. Is it not enough that I surrender?" The fat boss burst into tears. He was so unlucky today that he didn't check the almanac before going out.
Fang Yu looked back and felt that it was about time, so he snapped his fingers and lifted the spell effect.
Shen Shuyao, who was watching with him, looked at Fang Yu in confusion.
When Fang Yu pointed at the boss and said "You will be unlucky tonight", he had already quietly cast a spell.
The second first-level spell of the enchantment school that Fang Yu learned was calamity.
After casting, within ten minutes, the recipient will continue to encounter various non-fatal disasters, or as the saying goes, all kinds of bad luck.
For example, if you want to smoke, you take out a cigarette, take a puff, and find that the cigarette is broken; you take another one, just after lighting it, you find that you hold the cigarette upside down and light the filter; you take another one, and find that the lighter is out of gas...
For example, you might be walking on the road and then a car comes and you step on stinky dog poop.
The severity of the misfortune is inversely proportional to the kindness of the recipient. The more evil the recipient's intentions are, the stronger the effect of the spell will be.
If the recipient has good intentions, the spell has no effect.
Now looking at the fat boss’s bad luck, he must not be a good person.
There is no need to feel any psychological burden about cheating by tossing rings before.
Moreover, all the prizes at this kind of ring-tossing stall are actually very cheap.
Just like the remote control car in Fang Yu's hand, the wholesale price on 1688 may be less than 20 yuan, and it will probably fall apart after playing with it twice.
Fortunately, I learned the trick "Magic Stone" before. I would not be able to perform so smoothly in the ring with just the wizard's hand and arcane tricks.
Magic Stone, a trick of the Transmutation School, was originally only usable on stones. It injects magic power into five stones weighing no more than 200 grams. It can hit whatever you point at within 20 meters. The throwing speed can reach 180 kilometers per hour. It not only causes physical damage to the enemy, but also arcane damage that is no less than physical damage, which can be blocked or interfered with.
But these days Fang Yu studied the model and consulted Yuzi about what the specific expression of the magic stone model meant, and tried to improve the trick.
After unremitting efforts, Fang Yu's attempt to improve the spell model unexpectedly failed.
The improved model, in terms of attack power alone, is not as good as the original magic stone, and cannot cause any arcane damage to the enemy.
But there is also a good thing, that is, the range of throwing objects has been expanded. It is no longer limited to stones. Any solid object weighing less than 200 grams and that can be held in one hand can be used.
The spell range is still 20 meters, and the maximum flying speed of the thrown object can reach 160 kilometers per hour, which is not as fast as the original version. At the same time, if the density of the thrown object is lower than 0.7, the maximum flying speed of the thrown object will be reduced proportionally.
After Fang Yu came up with this thing, although according to Youzi it was reverse optimization, Fang Yu himself was still quite satisfied with it.
First, my optimization of spells has broadened the application of the magic stone trick. Although the power has been reduced, its practicality has been enhanced.
Second, this is my first attempt to modify the spell model. As long as the model doesn't crash, it will be considered a success, not to mention that some aspects have been improved.
Third, in modern society, where can we find stones on the roads?
After "improving" the "magic stone", Fang Yu watched a few episodes of Adachi Mitsuru's anime with great enthusiasm, then asked the Youth League Committee and confirmed that the school did not have a baseball team, so he gave up.
Otherwise, you have to join a team and kill everyone.
Isn’t this the golden finger of a genius pitcher?
By then, Japan might even give itself a nickname such as "The Empire's Super Monster".
I checked online and found that in the past few years at Koshien there were already fastballs with speeds of 160 km/h, but does he have the ball control ability to hit whatever I point it at?
It was hard to park in Fumin Lane, and Fang Yu didn't drive. He took a taxi to send Shen Shuyao back to the National University dormitory, then scanned a Mobike and rode back to Wenhui Garden. "Ling'er~Woo woo woo~Ling'er."
As soon as he entered the door, Fang Yu heard Professor Jorz wailing.
Taking a look at the TV, oh, the water monster has inexplicably come out, and Zhao Linger has inexplicably died together with the water monster.
Damn, they are almost dying, but they are still telling each other how hard they worked. This couple is so fucking awesome.
How did you get so fascinated by it when you were a kid?
The gray-blue color on Yuzi's body was so deep that Fang Yu felt sad when he saw it. It was not this blue even when it confirmed that its previous owner Nasri was dead.
Fang Yu glanced at the still on computer screen. Yes, he was back just in time. The "Arcane Armor" model was only 0.1% away from being rendered.
The rendering time required for a first-level spell is more than twice that of a zero-level cantrip. Fang Yu was out for more than four hours before the spell model of "Arcane Armor" was just rendered.
Arcane Armor, a first-level spell of the school of enchantment, will cover the object of the spell with a layer of protective arcane force field after being cast. According to Yuzi's description, the protective effect of the force field depends on the strength of Fang Yu's mental power. The higher the mental power, the better the protective effect of the spell.
With Fang Yu's mental strength of 12 units, the arcane armor he casts can at least withstand a full-strength stabbing or slashing blow from a strong adult man holding a sharp blade.
I just don't know if it can defend against hot weapons.
Entering the sea of consciousness, Fang Yu began to construct the spell model with ease.
The biggest difference between a first-ring spell and a cantrip is that it requires the mobilization of magic network nodes, so variables of the magic network nodes need to be added, which greatly increases the difficulty of constructing the spell model.
Just imagine, it is already very difficult to create a stable model in your mind, and at this time you have to calculate the variables of the magic network nodes around you at any time. Even among the contestants participating in the Super Brain, it is estimated that not every one can pass this test.
In the previous main plane, arcane apprentices might need to test and construct spell models over and over again, constantly experimenting with node variables, and after several months or even a year or two of research, they would be able to successfully construct a first-level spell model in the Sea of Consciousness.
But Fang Yu basically felt that a first-level spell was not much more difficult than a magic trick. At most, it took a little longer to render, and it took a little more energy to copy homework.
Fang Yu’s innate IQ is indeed not low, otherwise he would not have scored 680 in the college entrance examination.
But more importantly, he's a screw-up.
There is no need to spend a lot of effort to create a model in your mind, just stare at the screen and copy it.
As for node variables, it is even simpler. After the mental power connects to the node, the Rubik's Cube will automatically stabilize the link, and extremely accurate variable data can be obtained in one connection.
"Oh~ my great master, your talent is unprecedented. In just seven days, you have mastered the third first-level spell." Yuzu flew over slowly, and its color had returned to its normal yellow. It seemed that it had walked out of the shadow of the dead heroine.
Fang Yu didn't have time to deal with it.
Because at the moment when the Arcane Armor was taken away by the Rubik's Cube, the long-awaited voice appeared again.
"Obtained the 21st level authority of the Lorin Tower. Do you want to start the third switch?"
I can only update once today, not to save up manuscripts, but to sort out the details.
I found that there was something wrong with my mentality of writing something exciting. I was always hesitant and embarrassed to write.
Today I had a discussion with a great writer. I told him about a cool point conflict that I gave up. He didn't understand why I gave it up, thinking that there was no poison point. I explained that it felt a bit illogical to write it this way, blah blah blah. And, blah blah blah.
As a result, I was laughed at by the masters, who said that what I said were all excuses. The most fundamental reason was the mentality. I said that I wrote a refreshing article, but I always felt that refreshing was the specialty of amateur articles. I was hesitant and wanted to eat but was afraid of the heat. As a result, I still had to write for the market, so what I wrote was awkward, and the readers also felt awkward.
I feel a bit wronged. After all, I really want to write exciting articles. I don’t think that only novice articles can have exciting points. There are plenty of exciting articles that are not novice and are very popular. But it is also a fact that I am not capable of writing exciting articles, so I can only be criticized.
The big framework will not change in the later stage, but the details still need to be sorted out.
I hope to make this book more exciting.
In addition, I saw two book friends criticized that the main plot of this book is unclear. In fact, I said at the beginning that the main plot of this book is to show off and pick up girls with arcane skills, so it has not deviated from the main plot until now.
Please forgive me for the delay.
