Chapter 433: Super Fireball Technique
"Reslin…"
Ao Xiliya whispered it once, the name sounded plain, and asked, "What position do you intend to assign Reslin?"
"I have a tentative idea for now; you'll find out later."
Lei En wasn't sure himself; he stared at the uniquely beautiful rainbow‑scaled dragon, then fell silent, his gaze sweeping her graceful figure, raising an eyebrow, a smile tinged with meaning, thinking that it had been a long time since he was ridden by a dragon.
Ao Xiliya instantly read his mind and couldn't help giving him a sideways glance.
Lei En grew even more lecherous, moved closer to embrace her, his hands beginning to act indecently.
The rainbow‑scaled dragon offered no resistance, soon flushed from the teasing, and in a dazed, infatuated state suddenly saw Reslin standing nearby, and froze for a moment.
Even though she knew Reslin was Lei En's avatar, that the two were actually the same person, she still felt utterly uneasy, her mind extremely awkward.
"Back to my bedroom," Ao Xiliya murmured as a request.
"Isn't it the same here?" Lei En mumbled incompletely, in the heat of the moment, his reckless hand was suddenly restrained, hearing Ao Xiliya say, "Not here."
He turned his head, finally noticing the issue, and somehow felt even more excited.
Anyway, Reslin is also me, and I didn't involve him, so what's wrong with just admiring? But Ao Xiliya stubbornly refused, so Lei En had to compromise, opening the door and stepping out to the opposite Ao Xiliya's room.
Reslin watched the two leave, shaking his head with a wry smile.
He could still see through his original body's perspective, even sharing the sensations, gaining double the pleasure.
"Um…"
A few minutes later, Reslin's complexion turned somewhat unnatural; he realized he couldn't endure such stimulation, his body too weak, even mere admiration was a bit overwhelming.
"WTF, this is just too tragic!"
Reslin was speechless, only able to temporarily sever the sensory link with his original self, blocking that ethereal, soaring feeling.
He, with a face full of grief and anger, walked into the magic training room.
He closed his eyes for a few seconds, letting his emotions settle, then opened his phone's library and retrieved the teacher's "Spell Handbook". This hefty tome recorded over two thousand spells, spanning from the first to the ninth ring, most spells detailed with Element runes, truly a "Book of a Thousand Laws".
Reslin carefully leafed through the tome while pondering how to combine spells.
Mages, unlike Wizards, cannot fuse Arcane Element soul seals; each spell must be learned deeply, constructing a model within the soul.
Thus mastering spells is far harder than for Wizards, but offers greater freedom.
Once a Wizard's spell is set, it cannot be altered, whereas a Mage can disperse the spell model at any time and replace it with a spell of his choosing.
Many rare Arcane Elements are almost impossible to find magical souls, limiting Wizards' power and development.
A Mage can handle any spell he desires.
All of this rests on spell models.
What is called a spell model is essentially the Arcane Element runes; the models built by Mages are certainly less precise than naturally formed Elements.
Typically, initially constructed spell models are coarse; Mages must invest time and mana, gradually improving the model's precision, optimizing structure, raising the ring count, reducing mana consumption, and so on, to achieve power surpassing that of natural Arcane Elements.
The most efficient way for a Mage to build a model is to copy the Element runes verbatim.
In practice, however, it's not that easy.
Accurately depicting an Element rune has been an age‑old dilemma.
Even if a magical soul is incorporated into a soul stone for direct observation of Elements, full comprehension remains difficult. Elements are three‑dimensional and constantly shifting; the runes recorded in spellbooks are never exact, merely topologically rendered on paper to approximate natural Element runes, yet still contain errors.
Sometimes a minute difference in an Element rune yields a power disparity as vast as heaven!
After years of trial, Mages have forged perfect Element runes within their souls; they understand them yet cannot articulate them, nor demonstrate them to their apprentices.
This creates a steep entry barrier for Mages mastering spells.
Mages always find the beginning hard and the later stages easy.
When a Mage endures the early phase, spell models multiply and strengthen; through construction, they deeply grasp spell principles, reach legend status, and gradually surpass Wizards.
However, for Reslin, who possesses the Soul Eye, this is no issue at all.
The Soul Eye can directly observe the interior of magical souls, sense Element information, and obtain the most precise spell model!
Reslin's only consideration is how to combine spells.
Mages, unlike Law Seal Wizards, lack a "Law Seal Grid" limit, yet cannot master spells infinitely, as mana is finite.
Each spell model consumes a portion of mana.
The higher a spell's ring count, the more mana it requires, especially as he prepares to maintain several protective spells, which will consume a large amount of mana.
Reslin's mind streamed the spells he already mastered.
Dragon Power Technique, Rainbow Light Ray, Light Explosion Technique, Vector Shield, Flash, Arbitrary Door, Electric Flash Teleport, Mirror Image, and Space‑Time Shock.
These nine spells are mostly supportive; aside from Rainbow Light Ray, there is no other offensive spell.
Moreover, Rainbow Light Ray's range is too short, and its attack area is relatively narrow.
"First, we must master a high‑power spell."
Reslin flipped the "Book of a Thousand Laws" to the first page, where the Fireball Technique was prominently introduced. It is the teacher's most prized spell, the emblem of Mo Du's Wizards!
He activated the multi‑core crystal and memorized the Fireball Technique's Element runes in just half a minute.
Then, rummaging through his ring, he happened upon a "Magma Giant Lizard" magical soul, bearing the Fireball Technique Element.
Reslin held the soul stone before his eyes, the Soul Eye gazing directly inside, his stare focused.
After repeated comparison, a rune Element virtually indistinguishable from a natural one became clear to him; however, he didn't rush to build a model, instead retrieving from his original self a premium rune book, enchanted with the Fireball Technique!
Reslin triggered the Fireball Technique, a head‑sized sphere of flame coalescing in his hand, which he tossed out casually.
Boom!
The fireball exploded against the wall of the magic research lab, a protective layer blocking the high‑temperature flame.
Reslin continuously hurled several fireballs, focusing on the rune book's activation during casting; possessing the "Fire Affinity" Element, he was keenly attuned to fire Element fluctuations, and after a few self‑casts, his insight into the Fireball Technique deepened further.
After throwing every Fireball Technique from the rune book, Reslin finally sat down.
He swiftly entered a meditative state.
The star lake within the soul was dreamlike and illusory, its waters rippling; gradually strands of water rose from the surface, coalescing into clumps, like a living mass twisting.
More and more water gathered, and the lake surface churned.
The water used to construct the model accounted for only about one percent of all mana!
Reslin controlled the fluctuations of mana; the multi‑core crystal had already been pushed to its limit, Truth Willpower was also at work, and every strand of mana was under his command, moving at his will.
A few minutes later, an Element rune gradually took shape.
This is the spell model, of course only the most preliminary version.
In Reslin's vision, the fireball element from the Molten Fire Lizard's demonic soul appeared, which he compared with his own spell model, identified the differences, and adjusted immediately.
After dozens of continual adjustments, finally the spell model was identical to the natural Element rune.
Reslin's mind shifted, magnifying the spell model in his soul a hundredfold; the entire rune structure became crystal‑clear.
If other mages learned that he could control mana with such precision, they would be astonished beyond words.
But for Reslin it was merely a piece of cake.
The spell model and the Element rune not only shared the same appearance, but almost every detail was indistinguishable.
Reslin compared them repeatedly, confirmed there were no issues, his spirit steadied, and the spell model suddenly shrank, continuing to be compressed inward and solidified; the soul space generated immense pressure, solidifying the spell model and elevating it.
The spell model was compressed into a cluster of light points, then burst forth with brilliant starlight.
It shot straight upward, embedding itself in the night sky, and its reflection also appeared in the lake.
The number of stars increased to twenty‑one.
"Success."
Reslin observed the newly‑born star; an Element rune surfaced within the crimson starlight—it was the Fireball Technique!
He checked the time; he had spent just over two hours building the model.
Although this was only the Three‑Ring Fireball Technique and there were many aspects that could be refined, compared with other mages' speed of constructing spell models, it was truly masterful!
Reslin raised his hand to cast.
He did not use the multi‑core crystal for acceleration; two seconds later, a fireball formed in his hand, radiating a warm sensation.
He hurled the fireball, and the flames erupted.
Boom!
The entire magical research chamber shuddered; its power far exceeded the fireball technique attached to the rune book, dealing several times the damage of a normal Three‑Ring Fireball Technique, comparable to a Four‑Ring Spell.
Reslin himself was also surprised.
Clearly there was a "Flame Affinity" bonus, but more importantly his spell model was precise enough that it hardly seemed newly constructed.
And this was not even the fireball technique's upper limit.
Reslin looked at his phone interface, landing on the icon of the Rainbow Light Principle.
All along, Lei En had never unleashed the true power of this legendary Element.
It can master the mysteries of color; all Rainbow Light spells and any spells that employ Light have their potency tripled, and it grants immunity to all damage and adverse effects from Rainbow Light spells, as well as immunity to any spell or effect that causes blindness.
Furthermore, the Rainbow Light Principle can select seven spells, corresponding to the seven colors "red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet," doubling their potency; it is not limited to Rainbow Light spells, only the correct color is required.
Lei En has few spells, making it hard to match colors, so he has not yet selected the seven‑color spells.
Reslin activated the Rainbow Light Principle without hesitation; a colored star lit up in his soul, firing a red beam that linked with the newly‑born fireball‑technique star!
He cast the fireball technique again, and a super fireball with only three rings appeared.
After finishing the hospital matters, tomorrow I can focus on coding.
