Richard began to try to outline all the witchcraft runes involved in the first level of Rodrigo's orthodox meditation method. The first level corresponds to the stage where a third-level wizard apprentice reaches the limit of a first-level wizard.

The second level corresponds to the stage where a first-level wizard enters a second-level wizard.

Obviously, judging from the opponent's witchcraft runes, the opponent's first innate witchcraft is definitely not the first-level mental witchcraft - mental shock.

Rodrigo's orthodox meditation method, the first witchcraft rune involved a powerful shadow-based single-target witchcraft, which Richard was also quite familiar with. It turned out to be a single-target witchcraft - the death ray.

With the help of a huge amount of inspiration, Richard's understanding of this became clearer and clearer. It turned out that the legendary necromancer Rodrigo's design of the innate witchcraft was closely linked and connected.

The single-target shadow magic 'Death Ray' generated in the first level of orthodox meditation was originally intended to lay the foundation and pave the way for another, more powerful single-target shadow magic 'Finger of Death' generated in the second level of orthodox meditation!

'Finger of Death'? Hiss! Richard couldn't help but take a breath! This second-level single-target magic was very famous in the eyes of wizards in ancient times, and it was also a super-powerful offensive magic that was one of the killer weapons of undead wizards.

But what a pity!

I'm afraid this extremely powerful second-level single-target magic will not become Richard's innate magic.

Because don't forget, the variant meditation method that Richard practiced is the first level, and the corresponding innate witchcraft is the first-level mental witchcraft - mental shock.

Wanting to change your major now is nothing but wishful thinking.

If Richard said he was not disappointed, he would be lying! But he had no choice. Richard recalled that if he had not spent a lot of energy points to deduce the subsequent mutation meditation method and successfully promoted to a formal wizard, he would not have the opportunity to come to Basileus Island and follow the footsteps of the legendary necromancer Rodrigo.

I'm afraid he has already died in various battles and conspiracies!

Thinking of this, Richard's disappointment faded a lot.

Richard shook his head slightly and focused his mind again on two meditation methods that could be said to have the same origin but were completely different.

The orthodox meditation method is worthy of being the orthodox meditation method. Richard has gained a lot just by referring to it!

Soon, Richard seemed to have a vague grasp of the subsequent path derived from the first-level spiritual magic "Spirit Shock", that is, the second-level talent magic.

Since the corresponding innate witchcraft is rather vague, and the path chosen is not unique, Richard, with the help of massive inspiration, basically found his first innate witchcraft - mental shock, the corresponding second-level wizard innate witchcraft.

One of them is the mental shock wave, which is a range-type mental attack witchcraft. As for its power, it depends on the specific situation. If you are facing a group of little Karami, you can naturally kill a large number of them in one move.

But for other equally powerful second-level wizards, the attack power of this move may not be enough.

After all, the stability of the spiritual sea of ​​every second-level wizard is not so easily shaken.

Another option is the Psychic Drill, which is a strong single-target spell. Its power can be said to be comparable to the Finger of Death, but it is slightly inferior in terms of applicability.

After all, if you are facing a puppet-type enemy, the opponent does not have a spiritual sea, and your mental shock drill attack will not have much effect. On the contrary, the super shadow energy of the Finger of Death is more versatile.

But Richard thought about it and felt that the Psychic Drill would be more useful than the Finger of Death when fighting other creatures with strong bodies, such as sea monsters, because the bodies of those extraordinary creatures are much stronger than their spiritual sea.

Compared to the death finger that directly kills the body, the mental shock drill that directly attacks the spiritual sea will be more powerful.

So, after thinking for a while, Richard decided to deduce this path! With the consumption of a large amount of energy points, Richard soon successfully deduced part of the second level of the mutation meditation method, which involved the secondary talent witchcraft subsequent to the mental shock - the witchcraft runes required for the mental shock drill path.

As Richard analyzed all the witchcraft runes, the deduction of the second level of the entire mutation meditation method was about one third completed.

Richard took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and started thinking again.

Next is the deduction of the second innate witchcraft.

The innate witchcraft generated by my previous variant meditation method was 'Magic Armor'.

Magic Armor: Consumes three points of mental power, condenses the power of dark elements and bones, and forms a black bone armor with extremely strong physical and witchcraft dual defense.

Rodrigo's orthodox meditation rules will generate a natural witchcraft called Bone Shield for the practitioner, which is more inclined towards physical defense.

Then, the second level of orthodox meditation method further generates the second level innate witchcraft bone barrier based on the first level bone shield.

One thing after another! The applicability of the bone barrier is far higher than the bone armor that protects oneself or Richard's current magic armor technique.

According to the contents of orthodox meditation methods, the Bone Barrier can raise a wall-like barrier made of bones at a designated location. Obviously, this can not only be used to protect oneself, but also to protect friendly forces or designated creatures.

The importance of defense is self-evident!

To this end, Richard spent a lot of energy points, also referring to the orthodox meditation method, and on this basis, combined with his own variant meditation method, he began to deduce.

With various inspirations of defensive witchcraft such as magic armor, deathly aura, dark element shield, bone armor, skeleton armor, bone shield and bone barrier filling his mind, a new type of innate witchcraft, based on orthodox meditation method and combined with mutated meditation method, is about to emerge!

A flash of inspiration flashed through Richard's mind!

The prototype of a second-level talented witchcraft appeared in Richard's imagination.

Driven by a huge amount of inspiration, the gestation process accelerated instantly, and a faint black-robed shadow appeared in Richard's mind the next second! The shadow was about three meters tall and was something like a spirit.

Richard had never seen or heard of this second-level witchcraft in the shadow system, so he didn't know what to call it.

However, a light bulb went off in his head and a few words popped up in his mind in an instant.

"Shadow of Death!!"

It's called the Shadow of Death, and its appearance resembles a shadow that foreshadows death.

This Shadow of Death will bear all damage that can harm Richard's body. It has black bone armor that is stronger than the magic armor and both physical and witchcraft defense.

It can be regarded as the result of the magic armor technique combining the mutated meditation method and Richard's own defensive witchcraft with reference to Rodrigo's orthodox meditation method.

At this point, the progress of deducing the second level of the variant meditation method has reached 60 to 70 percent.

Next is the "Soul Link". 50% of the damage taken by the caster will be shared by his undead summons. This effect can be interchanged. If there are multiple undead summons, one must be selected as the main summon. Once activated, the effect will last until the summon ends.

Just as Richard was about to continue to deduce the last item, which was the second-level talent magic based on the third talent magic 'Soul Link', the world spun around and Richard's soul returned to the small room.

Richard opened the panel and checked it.

I saw that the originally more than 200,000 energy points were now empty, with a bright number showing: 0.

This made Richard speechless! He had thought it was enough for him, but it turned out to be alas! Seeing Richard's helpless expression, Stephanie stepped forward and said, "Master, is it not going well?"

"That's not the case. It went very smoothly. We were just a little bit away from getting it done! What a pity!" Richard explained with a smile.

This immediately made Stephana stare at her master in amazement.

"Master, you are so awesome. This is the inheritance left by the legendary necromancer Rodrigo in ancient times. How can you achieve it so quickly..." Stephanie had already overestimated her master, but now she was speechless.

The master's expression just now seemed to be called "Versailles" according to the master? "Let's go! Let's go to the alchemy area to take a look."

Since he couldn't continue to deduce the last part of the variation meditation method, Richard planned to take a walk in the alchemy area first.

After all, if we don’t rely on energy points for deduction, it would be almost a hopeless thing.

Therefore, only after you get out and obtain enough energy points, you can complete the second level of Rodrigo's variant meditation method.

The two came to the alchemy area again, and Richard slowly extended the "D" shaped ring into the transparent barrier.

Sure enough, everything went smoothly.

Richard and Stephanie looked at each other immediately, and then Richard took Stephanie's hand and walked through the transparent barrier calmly as if they had stepped into a bubble.

After the two stepped in, they discovered that the entire alchemy area was filled with a strange smell.

After a careful inspection, Richard found a lot of dried potion residues in the bottles and jars on the alchemy table. Obviously, it was the smell of these things that were constantly evaporating.

In the entire alchemy area, due to the long-term operation of the witch formation, the smell cannot leak out. Even after a long time, there is still a strange smell of decay.

The first place Richard came to was the bookshelf area on the right side of the alchemy area, where he saw many data records of experimental research.

Unfortunately, after Richard flipped through a few books, he discovered that the various rare alchemical materials used in them were things he had never heard of before.

The only few I have heard of, as far as I know, have disappeared from this world thousands of years ago.

For example, this record requires 10 mg of Swamp Hydra Blood Essence.

"Swamp Hydra?"

Sorry, it's been at least two thousand years since we last heard of a Swamp Hydra appearing.

Not to mention the blood essence of the swamp hydra! However, it is not completely useless.

Although these rare materials from ancient times have long disappeared, some of Rodrigo's ideas on potion preparation can be used for reference.

Richard looked at each bookshelf one by one.

Soon I saw several witchcraft books on a bookshelf.

Richard couldn't help but look delighted. He had an inspiration panel, so naturally the more witchcraft he knew, the better.

"Huh! It's actually a second-level necromancy book that was lost in ancient times, the Death Ripple!!" Richard couldn't help but be stunned.

Death Ripple is a second-level mass attack sorcery that triggers an instant explosion of dark elements. Within a certain area, it can cause massive damage to non-undead creatures.

"Ah! This is the necromancy that has been lost for many, many years. Master, if you learn it and submit it to the school, how many points can you exchange for it? Hehe~"

As a fragrant breeze blew over, Stephanie heard Richard's mumbling and walked over quickly.

She was also surprised when she saw the necromancy 'Death Ripple' in Richard's hand.

"No, you'd better keep such important necromancy for yourself. You can use it as a trump card!" Stephanie seemed to have thought of something and immediately added.

Richard smiled faintly and said, "After I learn it, I will find a suitable time to hand it over to the academy."

"This precious necromancy must have taken countless efforts from our predecessors. If it were to be forgotten in the vast river of history, it would be the greatest loss to us necromancers."

"Of course, I won't do it so quickly. At least I will wait until I reach the level of a third-level wizard."

"After all, doing this requires strong strength to back it up. Otherwise, you would be a fool to hand over rare witchcraft to the enemy, and then let the enemy learn it and use it to attack you!"

After a stroll, I gained a lot!

In addition to the second-level witchcraft Death Ripple, Richard also found a rare and unheard-of second-level auxiliary witchcraft on the bookshelf - Evil Mark! Evil Mark: When your enemy is marked by you with the Evil Mark, in addition to being located, he will be harassed by nightmares and spirits from time to time.

In Richard's opinion, this 'evil mark' is a product that combines mark-type witchcraft and curse-type witchcraft.

I didn’t expect that the ancient undead wizards were so creative!

Secondary witchcraft that can create such different effects.

Finally, there is an equally famous undead witchcraft - the Army of the Dead.

The Undead Army consumes spiritual power to summon undead creatures of different ranks in the Undead Realm to fight. The strength and type of undead creatures are directly proportional to the spiritual power of the caster.

Unfortunately, this 'Undead Army' is a third-level witchcraft!

This made Richard both surprised and regretful.

In his opinion, it would not take too long to reach the level of a second-level great wizard. A few years would probably be enough.

But for level three, the time it takes is hard to predict! By then, such a level three witchcraft is like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey's eyes. It can only be seen but not eaten every day. It's really too uncomfortable! (End of this chapter)
