Chapter 299: Lanqi will never forget Loren
Inside the Endless Library, the road is wide.
Under the ceiling dozens of meters high, every time Lanqi and Zestila took a step forward, the surrounding lights would turn on, like the opening of a new curtain.
This library, which has a classical theater-style feel, has tall bookshelves filled with all kinds of magic books. It is shrouded in semi-darkness, and occasionally ghostly pages can be seen floating in the air.
On the ground, black marble is inlaid with gold edges, reflecting a faint light. Sometimes you will suddenly discover that the ground is actually a giant magic crystal screen that can display all kinds of psychedelic colors and information guidance.
The first space that won’t make you get lost is the open reading area lobby. Further ahead, the red carpet on the ground stretches from the end of the lobby to the reception desk of a meeting room.
The two walked straight forward until they entered the meeting room.
A large chandelier hangs above the reception desk, emitting a soft yellow light that illuminates its smooth surface.
"Do you need help?"
The artificial beauty with skin as white as snow and as beautiful as a doll behind the reception desk spoke.
Zestira was slightly startled, as she thought this puppet couldn't speak.
"We want to exchange our collection."
Lanqi looked at Zestira and smiled, signaling her not to be afraid, and then said to the puppet.
"Okay, please, browse."
As the door of the meeting room closed, the puppet slowly activated the magic ritual on the reception desk, and soon dark text messages appeared on the table.
Following the instructions, Zestira took off the bracelet and placed it on the sensing area.
After a few seconds of reading time, new information was displayed:
[Contents that can be exchanged: One pink sacred-level magic item. ]
It is above the white, blue and purple grades, and second only to the orange epic pink sacred grade.
"Please click on the collection, the library, the general catalog, the recording, the main selection, and select it."
The puppet spoke again.
Zestila felt like her blood pressure was soaring just listening to this guy talking.
However, Lanqi was obviously in a good mood and didn't care at all. He just thanked the puppet and touched the search directory.
Some are ancient relics of the demon world collected in the history of the empire, or powerful magic cards made by masters, as well as products of the shadow world and confiscated treasures.
"Teacher, do you want to choose a magic device or a magic card?"
Zestira took a deep breath and asked.
Lanqi was slightly stunned when he heard this.
It is important to note that the rewards they were promised did not necessarily require choosing magic cards.
Pink sacred-level magic cards, magic devices, scrolls and materials are all available for selection.
The disadvantage of the magic device is that it cannot be soul-bound and brought into the shadow world, its portability is slightly poor, and there is a risk of loss, but it is more diverse than magic cards and does not need to take up a card slot.
In the Northern Continent, where real-life battles and competition for resources are more frequent, magic devices and magic cards are also popular.
Only in a peaceful and stable place like the Southern Continent, where everyone is focused on conquering the Shadow World, are magic cards almost overwhelmingly more popular than magic devices.
Scrolls can be used once or as materials for making spell cards.
The other materials depend on the level of the magic craftsman who will use them. If only quality is limited for selection, then materials will be selected unless there are no good ones in the magic cards and magic devices.
"If I had to choose from the pink sacred grades, I would probably prefer magic cards."
Lanci replied.
After all, he is from the Southern Continent.
In addition, if there is no restriction on the card type, he will try his best to find spell cards.
Although summoning cards, equipment cards, and spell cards are not divided into high and low levels, according to Lanqi's personal understanding, spell cards are the most noble.
Because high-quality spell cards are difficult to make, only those who master the spells or specific people who can master them can make them. Epic spells are almost impossible to make, and only Shadow World can produce them.
And those extraordinary magics that one would never be able to learn in one's lifetime, such as the power of vampires, can sometimes be directly reversed by a single card if mastered through epic spell cards.
It cannot be said that equipment cards and summoning cards are bad. Equipment cards have low mana consumption, sustainability and basic attributes, but their functions are relatively weak. Summoning cards consume a lot of mana, and you need to divide your mind to control or command the summoned creatures, and they will become ineffective once the summoned creatures are destroyed.
So after screening the [Seal] category and sorting the ranks from high to low, Lanqi's attention was mainly focused on the spell cards.
Summoning cards and equipment cards can certainly be considered, but it is difficult to unbind the pink sacred quality cards once they are bound. His flexible card slots are relatively small now, so binding pink sacred magic cards requires caution.
However, Sealing is a relatively rare type of magic. The highest-quality card in the treasury is a pink sacred-grade Sealing Spell Card, which is only level five.
[Night restricted area]
[Category: Spell Card]
[Grade: Pink Sacred]
[Attribute: Dark/Seal]
[Level: 5]
[Effect: Cast a barrier that blocks all vision with itself as the center. It consumes a lot of mana to release and maintain the barrier. When the unit in the barrier touches the boundary of the barrier for the first time, it will be temporarily imprisoned. ]
【Note: That was the last light you saw.】
“…”
When Lanqi saw this familiar range vision seal card, he swiped past it without paying much attention.
The magic type of this card is Seal and Dark, and its effect is similar to his [Radiant Virtue], but the magic type of [Radiant Virtue] is Seal and Light.
Comparing single cards, it seems that [Night Forbidden Zone] is stronger, but the essence of [Glorious Virtue] is a vampire special attack card.
There are only two seal-type cards at level five.
At the fourth level, there is only one.
[Taboo Curse Seal]
[Category: Spell Card]
[Grade: Pink Sacred]
[Attribute: Curse/Seal]
[Level: 4]
[Effect: With the other party's consent, you can sign a temporary subordinate contract with the other party, transforming it into your own familiar, and giving the other party an attribute bonus equal to one-eighth of your own. ]
[Note: Leave your life to me, there will be no problem. ]
"The effect of this card is a bit weak."
Zestira saw this from the side and said.
If an auxiliary uses it, it can only add a small amount of non-attack attributes to the output. If the output uses it, the card position will be occupied by this auxiliary card.
“It’s hard to say about this card.”
Lanqi frowned and muttered.
It is essentially a curse magic card with a small amount of sealing principles.
Although it seems a bit meaningless, it can be very useful when combined with some spells that can "transfer familiars" or "grant familiars enhanced effects".
However, accepting this forbidden curse is also quite dangerous. After becoming a familiar that is closer to a summoned creature, it is possible to be affected by some instant death effects and there is also the risk of being further controlled.
“It’s actually worth changing…”
After thinking about it, Lanqi slid down.
This magic has a somewhat taboo feel to it because it has the extended possibility of transforming living creatures into magic cards.
But Lanqi always felt that in the creation of the core material [Poem of Compassion] of [Poet of Great Love], there were some more profound and similar magical principles.
Maybe if I change this card, I will be laughed at by the poet of great love.
It would be embarrassing if she said, "Do you need to change this kind of junk card? I can figure it out for you."
Swipe down and you can see the bottom at a glance.
There were very few seal-type magic cards, and pink sacred-grade cards were scarce even in the treasury of the Protoss Empire.
Lanqi's gaze also lingered on the last sealing magic, appearing very hesitant.
【Music Elimination Area】
[Category: Spell Card]
[Grade: Pink Sacred]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
[Attribute: barrier/seal]
[Level: 3]
[Effect: Eliminate the sound in any area around you. The larger the area, the more mana will be consumed. Maintaining the area will continue to consume a large amount of mana.]
[Note: When that pair of cold golden pupils appeared, the sounds of the world disappeared.]
“Is there anything special about this card?”
Zestila felt that the teacher had passed over all the stronger killing and controlling sealing magics, but his eyes stopped on this interference sealing magic.
"This magic can completely suppress musical magic. Although it cannot block chanting and is ineffective against word magic, it is mainly used to block the opponent's information exchange."
Lanci explained.
After taking a quick look at the identification details, he could be sure that this must be a magic from the demon clan.
Moreover, there are no visible signs of processing, and I have never heard Talia mention the existence of such sealing magic. It should be a product of the ancient demon shadow world.
If you choose this, you can eliminate the negative effect of [Beautiful Notes] that does not distinguish between friend and foe.
Or it could be said that it is the magic that restrains [Beautiful Notes].
If this spell existed at the Purgatory Corridor Academy, it could even stop the Hellsound nuclear fusion in that classroom.
“…”
Zestila thought in confusion.
She always felt that the teacher's perspective on magic cards was quite strange.
The card she thought was terrible was considered okay by the teacher.
The teacher took one look at the card that she thought was very good and quickly crossed it out.
Lanqi thought about it. Although there were some acceptable pink sacred seals, he decided to see if there was a more suitable one first.
Just like that, he switched to the [Spirit] category, and Ranchi began to quickly scan the magic cards one by one to identify the detailed information.
Zestilah watched quietly from the side.
"Teacher, wouldn't it be better if you first chose the magic cards you can use?"
She asked softly, a little confused.
Whenever she saw Lanqi browsing the order of magic props, he would choose from high to low ranks.
Among the pink sacred grades in the entire treasury, high-level magic items are far fewer than low-level magic items.
Although high-end cards are certainly much more expensive than low-end cards, the problem is that high-end magic cards themselves are not easy to trade, not to mention whether there are channels for trading them.
"In fact, high-level magic cards are not easy to make. Not only are the materials difficult to obtain, but even for card makers, it is much more difficult for an eighth-level card maker to make an eighth-level finished magic card than for a third-level card maker to make a third-level magic card. If you have the opportunity to get a magic card, unless you need to improve your combat effectiveness in an emergency, try to choose a high-level one."
Lanqi said to Zestila while browsing.
She may not have seen the effects of high-level magic cards, so she thinks low-level cards are very effective.
Low-level epic cards may indeed be used for a lifetime.
There are also many other low-level countermeasure cards that can produce outstanding effects in special situations.
But in terms of strength and multipliers, there is always an insurmountable gap between low-level cards and high-level cards.
Tiers one, two, and three are all considered low-level cards, and they mainly serve as countermeasures and system filling. Tiers four and five are the mainstay of functional cards. Tier six and onwards are a watershed, and there are many powerful purple rare-quality general-purpose cards that are at tier six.
For example, the sixth-tier purple rare spell [Named Purification] can remove a certain abnormal state or control effect from the body, and the person will not be affected by this abnormal state or control effect for a certain period of time.
As well as [Spell Counter] which can be triggered when the enemy launches a low-level or low-quality spell, making its spell ineffective and entering double cooldown, and [Forced Dispel] which can forcibly dispel all states on yourself or the opponent.
These three are the most popular sixth-level rare quality magic cards. They are easy to flexibly combine and replace. When they reach the sixth level, almost everyone will have one as long as they can afford it.
This was also the reason why they couldn't use hard control to continuously restrain the Destruction Saint in team battles in the Shadow World of the Temple Evil Dinner at that time.
It's almost entirely up to soft control to hold her back.
The seventh and eighth levels are the real powerful areas. Even blue precious quality magic cards are difficult to buy at the seventh level, and they are so strong that they are difficult to be targeted.
"So that's how it is."
Zestila nodded with understanding.
She thought the teacher wanted to cash in the reward, so he tried to look at high-level magic cards.
But even if the teacher really found the seventh-level magic card, how long would it take for him to use it? Zestilara still didn't quite understand.
Her curiosity now gradually turned to what kind of card the teacher would choose today.
Another ten minutes passed.
Lanqi looked at them one by one, but still couldn't make a decision.
It is a pity that no matter whether it is the seal, spirit, or the light and fire he later adjusted, the highest level has not seen the seventh-level pink sacred quality magic card.
He seemed to glance at the healing property symbolically and then turned it off.
I didn't even look closely at the healing multiplier of the healing magic.
I don't know why he is looking at this category.
Zestira was sure that only these few magic spells of his teacher were compatible and were the best choices for his system. It was even possible that he would be able to analyze the principles behind them in the future, or even break them down and remake them.
It is normal that you cannot find high-level cards in small categories such as the Sealing and Psychic systems. For example, there are very few people who are good at the Sealing system.
As for popular element categories such as light and fire, not being able to find high-level cards is simply a matter of luck. They might have just been picked up a few years ago.
“…”
Lanqi held his chin and thought about it.
Then he changed the filter column to [Wind].
Zestila: “?”
The moment the teacher suddenly made this meaningless choice, she inexplicably felt as if someone was going to be in trouble.
I learned the Hell God of War, so not only did I revive, I also wrote 4,000 words in this chapter
