Chapter 83 Water Magic and Light Magic
From that day on, Xiong Duoduo officially began learning water magic.
There are three water magic patterns left by Mei Haihai on the stone wall: water ball, water shield, and washing.
The effects of basic magic are very limited, but it forms the foundation for learning a series of other spells.
A water ball is a small water ball that is launched to attack the enemy.
A water shield is a shield constructed from water that can block some weaker attacks.
Washing involves manipulating a stream of water to remove dirt from the object being washed. The advanced cleaning technique that Director Ma demonstrated earlier was a sophisticated version of washing.
The difficulty of these three spells increases from easy to hard, and the circuits they require to form become increasingly complex.
The water sphere's circuit requires five water element particles, the water shield requires six, and the wash requires all seven.
Generally, beginners learning magic need to pronounce the names of the spells.
This is because when using the Common Language of the Ocean, the magical circuits are engraved in the words, which help the elemental particles arrange themselves into the corresponding circuits.
But for Xiong Duoduo, who was born unable to speak, this method cannot be used.
She could only repeatedly trace the circuit imprints left by Mei Haihai, allowing these circuits to form muscle memory in her mind.
Doing this requires thinking for a long time before you can cast the spell.
However, as you become more proficient at using it, the time required will gradually decrease.
The learning at this stage was very tedious, and the magic spells were too ordinary to bring Xiong Duoduo much sense of accomplishment.
Even Mei Haihai couldn't help her much; the daily Q&A session turned into attack and defense drills to train her reaction speed.
However, although the spells that Xiong Duoduo learned were quite ordinary, the ocean-dwelling cubs at the magic school were even more excited than she was.
At this point, even the fastest learners can only condense four elemental particles, and cannot learn a single spell.
Most students can only condense two or three elemental particles.
Therefore, the cubs tirelessly asked her to demonstrate magic to them.
Every time Xiong Duoduo conjures a small water ball in her hand, they all exclaim "Wow!" in unison.
This routine has been repeated almost a hundred times, and they haven't gotten tired of it.
Many cubs brought her deliberately dirty clothes, eagerly waiting to see her wash them.
Sometimes Xiong Duoduo gets annoyed, but when she sees their longing eyes, she can't bear to refuse them.
He had no choice but to resign himself to casting the same spell over and over again.
Thanks to them, by the end of the second semester, she had mastered all three spells.
Moreover, she uses all her magic silently, making it impossible for others to guess what spells she intends to use.
At this point, only a few of the other sea creature cubs were able to begin using the simplest of the three spells.
Xiong Duoduo also took the ocean theory courses very seriously.
Most marine cubs enter magic academies to learn magic.
Magic is novel and cool, so they just casually brush off theoretical lessons.
For some reason, Xiong Duoduo always felt that these theoretical courses were of great importance to her.
As for its important function, she couldn't explain it.
In the final exams of the first academic year, Xiong Duoduo achieved first place in both the theoretical and practical exams.
Xiang Canglan's face, covered in wrinkles, was so happy that it seemed to turn into a chrysanthemum as she was commended at the school assembly.
“Look at Xiong Duoduo. Although he can’t speak, he’s better than you at everything he does. I’m glad that we can train another powerful fighting force for our ocean residents. When the time comes, our chances of victory will be even greater when facing those hairless, upright-walking bastards on land.”
"Look at how lazy you all are! How are you going to fight for the ocean dwellers? You should all learn from Xiong Duoduo!"
When the topic of war against the land hybrids came up, every sea creature cub's face lit up with righteous indignation.
This feeling also touched Xiong Duoduo, and a sense of mission welled up in her heart.
She, Xiong Duoduo, is the most outstanding student at the Ocean Magic Academy. Protecting the ocean dwellers from the invasion of land hybrids is her mission!
The next semester began, and Xiong Duoduo started learning light magic.
With her experience in condensing water elements, she condensed seven solid light element particles in just half a semester.
Then I started practicing the three light-based magic patterns left by Mei Haihai.
The spells represented by these three patterns, from easiest to hardest, are: Flash, Awakening, and Healing.
A flash of light is a powerful burst of light that interrupts an enemy's spellcasting.
Being awake means emitting a light at a specific frequency when one's rationality is low or when one is being misled, thus bringing others back to their senses.
Healing is the slow healing of small wounds.
Compared to water magic, which has weak offensive power, light magic has absolutely no offensive power.
However, the inhabitants of the ocean do not easily look down on any type of magic.
At higher levels, any type of magic can unleash devastating power.
For example, the advanced version of healing in the light system, the Great Healing Spell, can turn bones into flesh and blood.
As long as a person doesn't die, they can be restored to their original state.
Even disabilities and psychological trauma can be healed.
Light-element mages are sought after in any gathering place of ocean dwellers.
Xiong Duoduo has resumed practicing light magic.
Most of the ocean dwelling cubs have also begun to learn spells corresponding to their respective elemental magic.
However, they still maintain a great interest in rare light magic.
The difference is that they all wore sunglasses so they could get a close look at Xiong Duoduo's magic.
Although they learned magic much faster than their friends, their friendship remained unaffected.
After a year of getting to know each other, Xiong Duoduo has become close friends with Xiong Ba, Xiong Jiu, Xie Jiejie, and Xie Jianjian, and they can talk about anything.
Why do we say we can talk about anything? Because, in order to communicate with Xiong Duoduo, the friends created a body language that both polar bears and king crabs can use.
After a year, this language system has become very complete.
With a way to communicate, Xiong Duoduo was finally able to express her thoughts to her friends.
The five-person team's footprints quickly covered every corner of the Poseidon Magic Academy.
They went fishing together at the beach, taught Principal Xiang Canglan's parrot to swear, and stole wine from Xiong Ba and Xiong Jiu's mentor while he was sleeping.
Together they climbed to the top of the school's tallest tower to watch the sunrise and sunset, the sea of clouds and the starry sky.
The originally calm Xiong Duoduo has become cheerful, and her sign language changes rapidly with her hand gestures when she chats every day.
Despite having fun, Xiong Duoduo still achieved first place in the theoretical exam at the end of the second academic year.
Because most students had begun to be able to use magic, the final exams for the second year turned into magic battles.
To this end, Mei Haihai and Xiong Duoduo had already practiced spell combinations for dealing with various elemental magics many times.
Mei Haihai was very confident that Xiong Duoduo would win.
But Xiong Duoduo herself was a little unsure, after all, light and water types were not as powerful as metal, fire, and lightning types.
Despite my worries, the day of the magic battle exam finally arrived.
