Chapter 656 The Third Magic Net

"Our experiment was very successful, but I feel sorry for Audrey. Being forced to be dumb all day is certainly not an interesting experience."

Joan cast an apologetic glance at Audrey.

"It was a bit boring at first, but then I was cheeky and took the initiative to chat with Joan, and I didn't feel bored anymore." Audrey said with a smile.

"Joan is like this. He looks shy and introverted in front of strangers, and he rarely speaks up. But after you get to know him well, you will find that he is actually a very interesting person." Holden said to his sister.

Audrey nodded and smiled, expressing agreement. Seemingly aware of the embarrassment on Joan's face, she changed the subject calmly, and said to her younger brother: "The experiment went well today, but considering the slightly different structures of male and female vocal cords, Joan needs to try again with a different male sample." try."

"Is Joan going to experiment with himself again?" Holden asked worriedly.

"In the past, he was the only one who did research alone. There is nothing we can do about it. Now it's different." Audrey looked at her younger brother with a smile, patted his shoulder, and teased at the corners of her eyes and brows, "Brother, this time we will rely on you."

"Wait... are you trying to take me..." Holden pointed to his throat in astonishment.

"For Joan's research work, you should sacrifice a little bit, anyway, just shut your mouth temporarily and let your throat rest, what's wrong?"

"But, but... I'm not ready yet."

"What else are you preparing? The 'aphasia' will only make you unable to speak, and will not prevent you from drinking water and eating. Joan, we all want to have a quiet dinner, right? Let's start casting the spell."

For some unknown reason, Audrey coaxed her younger brother to be a test subject for Joan, and made arrangements for poor Holden.

In this case, to be frank, even if Joan sympathized with Holden, he would not dare to confront Her Royal Highness, so he could only make a gesture of casting apologetically, asking his poet friend to be silent for a while.

It wasn't until the next morning that Audrey performed "Lay on Treatment" to relieve her younger brother of "Aphasia".

This night made the poor poet miserable, and he didn't close his eyes much, his eyes were as red as a rabbit's.

On the night when Holden was forced to experience "aphasia" all night, Joan also made a breakthrough in his arcane practice. After half a year, he finally raised his spellcasting level again and became a level 5 mage.

As usual, Joan always meditates for an hour before going to bed, and uses his spiritual power as a sharp probe to drill deep into the magic net. The deeper the level he reaches, the more magic bits he can use higher.

Not counting the legendary level, the magic net can be divided into ten levels from shallow to deep, and each level corresponds to a spell slot with a different number of rings. Excluding the 0-ring magic net whose thickness is almost zero, the remaining nine levels of magic net are like a magic net. As the pancakes are stacked, the thickness gradually increases, and the drilling of the spiritual force probe becomes more and more difficult, consuming more and more time and energy.

Before today, Joan's mental power probe had already touched the bottom of the second magic net. As long as it penetrated the last thin barrier, it could touch the third magic net. It's just the result of countless days and nights of hard work, accumulated bit by bit.

Qiao An even accurately calculated the exact date of his promotion to level 5 mage a month ago, and as expected, it really is today!

Although all of this is within the calculation, when the moment of breaking through the realm really comes, when the spiritual power probe penetrates the second magic net that has hindered Joan for half a year, and finally penetrates the surface of the third magic net , a brand-new field, he still couldn't help being so excited that he couldn't sleep at all.

Unable to fall asleep anyway, Joan sat up from the bed, cast the "light technique" to create a magic wall lamp, and opened the spell book by the light.

There is an essential difference in the way ordinary people and spellcasters view the world.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the world is "continuous", but in the eyes of spellcasters, the world is "discrete", and this feature is most obvious in "Magic Net".

The existence of magic power has typical discrete characteristics, distributed in different levels of magic nets, and presented macroscopically in the form of "magic slots" of different energy levels.

After being promoted to a level 5 mage, Joan can draw magic power from the third magic net, and can get up to three third-level magic slots every day.

With the 3rd-level spell slot, Joan can learn and cast 3rd-level spells. In fact, long before he was promoted to a level 5 mage, he had reserved a lot of third-level spells in advance. He briefly checked the spell book and confirmed that he had copied a total of nine third-level spells from the book.

They are "Eagle Eye" belonging to the "Prophecy School", "Shrinking Object" belonging to the "Change School", "Fireball", "Lightning Beam", and "Frost Nova" belonging to the "Evocation School". " and "SMS", and finally "Vampire's Touch", "Exhaustion Ray" and "Mage Nether Palm" belonging to the "Necronomicon School".

If these spells were transcribed in the academy, Joan would have to pay at least 2,700 Gold Duga for the borrowing fee. According to the above analysis, there is also a part copied from the spell book of "Mad Mage" Felger.

For a poor student like Joan from a poor family, the saved expense is not a small amount, almost worth one year's tuition.

Today is February 8th, and there are still three weeks before the registration day for the new academic year of the Arcane Academy of Midgard University. Joan must learn as many ring 3 spells as possible during these three weeks to prepare for the exam.

Although time is tight and studies are heavy, Joan still has to participate in necessary social activities and maintain necessary interpersonal relationships.

Early the next morning, Joan and Zion siblings boarded a rented carriage after having breakfast at the apartment, and headed to the pier area for their appointment.

The carriage drove through the streets and alleys for about an hour, and stopped outside the door of a three-story building facing the street. The coachman turned around and told Joan and Zion that the Haiwan Trading Company had arrived.

Joan got out of the car and looked up at this magnificent building. Compared with the Yangbo Firm in Leiden Port, it was obviously more magnificent. Judging from the flow of people in front of the door, the business was also more prosperous.

In the most prosperous city in the New World, in a commercial area where every inch of land is expensive, with such a big business house, it is not an exaggeration for Holden to say that Hailaer is a "little rich woman".

While Joan was observing the surrounding environment, a familiar laughter came from his ears.

"Joan, good morning!"
