CHAPTER : 25
Chapter 25 – Multiple Blazing Rockets, Torch Fire Technique
‘Good, there are forty-nine more.’ Lucien looked over to Carly, who was on the sidelines and encouraged.
‘Hmm.’ Carly was full of energy at this moment, and there was even an uncontrollable leap of joy on her face.
Just as Carly started searching for a new target in front of her, Lucian tapped on the system panel and started checking out the teaching rewards this time.
Firstly, he tapped on the Blazing Arcana-Arrow icon, and soon, three routes were extended on this icon representing the knowledge of Blazing Arcana-Arrow, each connecting to a brand new icon.
‘Multiple arrows, faster arrow speed, and increased hit rate?’ Lucien glanced at the three options and then at Carly, who had just successfully hunted down another Blood Raven. After a moment of thought, he decided on the Multiple Arrows option.
After all, an extra arrow was, in a way, equivalent to doubling the power of the currently cast bow, which was a greater gain than the latter two.
Boom–
Countless knowledge surged into Lucien’s mind, this time, not only did it have knowledge of sorcery runes, but there were also some archery casting techniques …… Countless pieces of knowledge converged and combined with each other, ultimately forming a complete archery art in Lucian’s mind- Multiple Blazing Rockets.
This bow and arrow sorcery could fire up to five, or at least two, enchanted arrows at once, except the amount of mental power the caster needed to consume would be doubled with each new enchanted arrow added.
However, each additional enchanted arrow is also equivalent to raising the instantaneous power of the sorcery to a higher level. Using the high consumption of mental energy in exchange for the high power of sorcery was also considered a trade-off.
‘Well, after this mission is over, I’ll go back and teach Carly new things.’ Lucian couldn’t help but reveal a small smile, then looked towards another upgrade knowledge still waiting for his choice.
Blazing Art-Correction.
There were also three upgrade directions for Blazing Pyromancy-Correction, which were Increase Flame Power, Enhance Flame Attachment Effect, and Increase Hit Rate.
Lucien was somewhat surprised by this last point. In his opinion, the biggest flaw of the Blazing Flame Technique was its single attack, which was easy to dodge. He wondered how this method could possibly increase its hit rate.
Thinking of this, Lucian’s heart also had a decision.
In the next moment, the knowledge surged again, this time it was a pure sorcery model, the large amount of knowledge that instantly surged in made Lucien couldn’t help but lightly close his eyes, in the next moment, he opened his eyes, but his mouth let out a burst of special syllables.
‘Zebra ……’
Along with Lucian’s low voice, a boulder about twenty meters away in front of him was suddenly bursting with a blue flame.
Snorting – the blue flame burned, causing the boulder to emit a slight cracking sound.
‘Mentor?’ Carly, who had just finished hunting, also heard the commotion caused by Lucien’s side, and she couldn’t help but turn her head to look, and saw the boulder that suddenly burst into blue flames at that moment.
‘Got a bit of an idea, just got a bit of an itchy hand, so I just tried it.’ Lucien smiled and explained while withdrawing the spiritual power that was maintaining the sorcery to remain in effect.
Instantly, the blue flame burning on the surface of the boulder slowly died out, but at this point, the boulder had been scorched to the point where its surface was slightly reddened.
‘Sonic positioning, remote casting.’ Lucien looked at the boulder, but in his heart, he was relatively satisfied.
The upgraded Blazing Spell, the main focus of which was a surprise, was able to directly descend the sorcery effect on the opponent after positioning it through the sound wave.
If one carries an auxiliary casting material that can emit ultrasonic or infrasound sounds that cannot be heard directly by the human ear, then the concealment of this sorcery can be raised to a higher level. It could be said that it could instantly descend on the opponent without him noticing.
It was a good skill for sneak attacks! Although the strength of the attack wasn’t particularly high, it was superior in that it was unexpected, and the hit was close up. If the opponent didn’t have a skill that could counter it in time, this move could threaten the life of any third-level sorcerer apprentice in a sneak attack situation!
‘Let’s just call you …… Torch Fire Art.’ Lucien associated it with the way the boulder instantly became a huge torch under the convergence of countless blue flames just now, and gave a new name to this new sorcery, which was stripped of Blazing Fire Art.
And what made Lucien somewhat surprised was that Torch Fire Art and Multiple Incandescent Rockets were considered the same sorcery, and thus shared a common teaching progress bar.
In other words, as long as he allowed Carly to thoroughly master one of the sorceries, he would be able to unlock the knowledge or bonding rewards afterward.
This was undoubtedly great news for Lucien.
‘From this perspective, the system is probably encouraging me to develop my students’ personalities and then derive derived branches of sorcery.’ Lucien had a clear understanding in his heart, and at this moment, he couldn’t help but look at Carrie on the side, planning not to wait until he returned to school to start but to start now.
‘Carly.’
‘Mentor Lucien?’ Carly put away her bow and arrow and turned her head to look at Lucian.
‘I feel bow and arrow type sorcery can be further modified and improved.’ Lucian smiled as he took the bow and arrow from Carly’s hands, and then took out two more arrows from the arrow pouch behind Carly’s back.
Carefully drawing back the bowstring.
Both arrows gradually had magical vein fluctuations converging on them, eventually forming two arrows that were enchanted with Blazing Fire Art.
Lucien’s hand loosened, and the arrows flew out toward the boulder in front of him, after perfectly avoiding the boulder, the two arrows landed at almost the same time, and a small explosion occurred.
Carly: (°ロ°)!
Lucien smiled faintly and returned the bow to Carly.
Carly was still a little confused at this point, she remembered that Mentor Lucien had obviously never asked her about the improved sorcery model, but now Mentor Lucien was not only replicating it perfectly, but also upgrading it on top of her own.
With some disbelief, Carly also took out two arrows.
Drawing her bow, she began to build the sorcery model.
One of the arrows was successfully enchanted, but the other arrow did not change in the slightest.
After hesitating for a moment, Carly wanted to use two arrows in one, but having just tried the beginning, she felt that the arrow that was enchanted first was already somewhat about to explode out of control at this point, so she could only give up helplessly and loosen the bowstring to fire the two arrows.
‘Figure it out on your own first, I’ll talk to you after we return to the academy.’ Lucien patted Carrie’s shoulder.
Carly raised her head slightly and looked at Lucian, a touch of reverence couldn’t help but flash through her eyes.
She felt that at this moment, she had somewhat understood Mentor Lucian’s good intentions.
Perhaps for Mentor lucien, the improvement of the Sorcery Blazing Rocket was not difficult at all, while what the mentor was doing was silently spending more time, step by step, guiding himself to research, ponder, and successfully develop and master it.
‘Mentor Lucian ……’ Carrie gently hugged Lucien’s waist, but because of the height restriction, Carrie’s posture was more like hugging Lucien’s thigh.
