Chapter 1551 The Correct Way to Open
Considering that there is a mantra spell of "water vortex", Zhou Xu directly moved the test site to Qingshui Lake.
There are many islands on Qingshui Lake, some big and some small. Small islands occupy the vast majority, and the smallest one is so small that only a sentry post can be set up on it.
Generally, the main job is to be responsible for lake rescue.
After all, Qingshui Lake is currently the largest lake in Da Zhou, connecting the three areas of Black Moon City, Tropical Region and New South District.
There are a lot of fishermen working on the lake and cargo ships coming and going every day.
If these ships encounter accidents far away from the port, it will be difficult for the port to notice it. At this time, the rescue teams at these outposts have to rely on communication and rescue.
Of course, not every lake island is used at present. Some small lake islands that are relatively remote and have no resources found after exploration and have no construction value are basically in a state of abandonment at this stage.
Zhou Xu is currently on such an island in the lake.
Due to its remote location, there are usually no ships coming here.
The area is not large, probably about the size of a basketball court, but it is enough for doing some simple truth tests.
Without hesitation, standing in the center of the lake island, Zhou Xu started the test directly.
[Flame vortex! ]
As the mantra was recited, the surrounding air quickly became dry.
At that moment, there was only a muffled "boom" sound, and a blazing flame appeared out of nowhere, quickly forming a huge vortex of flames in the distance that kept spinning, and formed a certain degree of suction force, trying to sweep all the surrounding objects in!
[I see, it has the same consumption mechanism as 'Flame Dance'. By continuously injecting mana, 'Flame Vortex' can be maintained for a long time.]
At this point in time, Zhou Xu had not yet had time to analyze the mantra, and was unable to chant it completely and control its power and scale at will.
But his powerful strength in the out-of-body realm is there, and even if it is used normally, the power should not be underestimated.
However, Zhou Xu could actually feel that under normal circumstances, the power of the "Flame Vortex" was actually weakened a lot by the dual influence of the environment and the season.
There is no need to explain the environmental impact, because there are lakes all around, and in the natural environment, the water element is relatively abundant, while the fire element is scarce.
The seasonal influence is because it is now a cold winter.
As his research on mantras deepened, Zhou Xu discovered that seasons and weather also have an impact on mantra spells.
There will be relatively obvious differences in the effects of casting fire mantra spells in the scorching summer and the cold winter.
Not to mention the weather, sunny days and rainy days, which are also two extremes.
Therefore, to some extent, casting mantra spells also requires the right time, place and people.
As for the effect of 'Flame Vortex', Zhou Xu is undoubtedly satisfied with it for now.
Including the 'Flame Vortex' in front of him, the number of fire spells Zhou Xu can use has increased to four, namely 'Flame Attack', 'Fire Rain Attack', 'Flame Dance' and 'Flame Vortex'.
Among them, "flame attack" is the most basic means of attack, and the mode is equivalent to directly spraying fire to burn the target. Due to the reason that it is too basic, Zhou Xu did not use it frequently in the later period.
'Fire Rain Attack' and 'Fire Dance' are advanced versions.
Among them, "Fire Rain Attack" is a large-scale ignition skill for Zhou Xu. The direct damage is not high, but it can be used in conjunction with some tactics.
'Fire Dance' is a fire-related mantra spell that Zhou Xu uses more frequently. While it has an excellent defense effect against close-range attacks, the spreading flame shock wave also has considerable lethality.
A person can rush into a group of enemies, and then activate the "Fire Dance", and directly transform into a human-shaped shock wave bomb.
On this basis, although both are flame attacks that spread in a circular shape, 'Flame Vortex' and 'Flame Dance' are actually not the same in essence.
If "Fire Dance" wants to show its attacking ability, Zhou Xu, as the caster, needs to rush directly into the enemy group. Otherwise, this is a skill that is more defensive in nature, used to resolve sieges or surprise attacks, and it is not convenient to use when there are friendly forces around.
To be honest, this is actually more suitable for brave generals who charge into battle, rather than mages.
The 'Flame Vortex' was different. He didn't need Zhou Xu to rush up. This was a typical fire-based long-range attack spell! This was the method that was suitable for mages to use! After stopping the subsequent injection of mana, the 'Flame Vortex' quickly dissipated, but the combustibles on the deserted island had been ignited, forming a fire of a certain scale.
Zhou Xu was not panicked by this and directly launched the next mantra spell that needed to be tested.
【Water whirlpool! 】
Suddenly, water appeared out of thin air on the island. Compared with the previous 'flame vortex', it might be a problem of the shape of flame and water. Zhou Xu found that the 'water vortex' was rotating faster and more smoothly.
Even if they are all whirlpools, completely different shapes can show completely different effects.
During this time, the guards nearby understood what was going on and directly took a wooden target for testing and threw it into the 'water vortex'.
The moment it fell, the wooden stake seemed to have fallen into a high-speed blender, and continued to disintegrate in circles of high-speed rotation.
Compared with the 'Fire Vortex', the tearing force of the 'Water Vortex' is obviously stronger. It can capture the enemy through the suction force of the vortex, and at the same time tear the enemy's body apart continuously, and use the water flow to form a 'drowning' effect, constituting a double blow.
In comparison, the tearing force of the 'Flame Vortex' is not that strong. Its mechanism is more like trapping the target with a vortex and then continuously burning the target with flames.
The same type of spell combination will produce completely different effects due to different attributes, and even the mechanisms may become different.
Zhou Xu had known this for a long time. The most typical examples were "Lightning Dance" and "Fire Dance".
The 'water vortex' containing magical power showed great power and quickly put out all the fires on the lake island.
During this process, Zhou Xu formed a new idea.
[If I cast 'Water Whirlpool' on the lake, the effect will be...]
Do it as soon as you think of it, and cast the mantra spell of "Water Vortex" again.
A whirlpool soon formed on the surface of the lake, with the same consumption as before, but this whirlpool became larger and larger on the surface of the lake.
In the blink of an eye, the ever-expanding whirlpool caused the entire surrounding water area to become turbulent.
The potential energy created by the rotation of the vortex continuously draws in more lake water from the surrounding area.
Of course, this still has its limits. If it could expand indefinitely, it would become a BUG-level mantra spell.
But even so, the scale of the entire water vortex is still 50% larger than when it is performed on land! Needless to say, this is the correct way to open the "water vortex"!
