The Witcher starts by getting the inspiration panel

Chapter 49 Two Skills and One Shield (for further reading)
After learning about the teaching style of the Ignis School during this period of time, Li Cha is also relatively clear.

For first-level wizard apprentices, it can be regarded as strict entry and strict exit. The school doesn't care whether you take classes or not, what classes you take, it's just a semi-annual assessment, and you have to pass it.

Otherwise, no matter how many classes you take, no matter how hard you listen, it will all be equal to zero.

Regarding this point, Li Cha still appreciates it very much. This is out of respect for the students' freedom of choice!
The courses of the school can be combined and studied at will, you only need to learn what you want to learn!

Following the incident on the Spider Trail, the teachers in charge of the basic courses for new students have already resumed normal teaching.

Since Li Cha had enough points, during this period of time, he had taken a few extra courses for a fee, and completed the other three pre-requisite courses of Level Witchcraft, Bone Armor, Slow and Dark Elemental Shield.

This is different from what he planned at the beginning!
Originally, Li Cha's idea was that it is better to be proficient in everything than to be proficient in everything. He is proficient in a powerful witchcraft, and he can instantly kill the opponent at the beginning.

This is also the reason why he chose to learn the grip of shadow first!
But after taking a paid course "Battle Essentials for Wizard Apprentices", Li Cha changed his mind.

In the course, the teacher's original words were, "A wizard apprentice, especially a first- and second-level wizard apprentice, has a limited amount of mental power and a very limited number of witchcraft that can be used, so it is necessary to fully balance the two contents of offense and defense. There are shortcomings."

Indeed, when encountering a battle that cannot be resolved quickly, Li Cha's shortcomings are undoubtedly exposed. He does not know any continuous defensive witchcraft.

Although the Shadow Grip can change its form to protect itself, it can only resist one attack from the opponent.

If faced with multiple attacks from the enemy, Li Cha can only choose to dodge at present.

Thinking about it this way, Li Cha recalled the battle between himself and the Shadow Hunter, and he still has lingering fears!
If it wasn't for the fact that I bought the Grace of Wind potion at that time, or if I didn't drink the potion without hesitation before fighting the Shadow Hunter.

Then there is a great possibility that he himself was instantly killed by the opponent in that battle!
Therefore, this time he chose to learn Bone Armor, Dark Element Shield, and Slow, which basically made up for his shortcomings.

That's right!

Li Cha's next plan is that with the gradual improvement of his mental power, he can now afford two or three opportunities to use zero-level witchcraft.

Therefore, he redefines his fighting style.

Li Cha did not choose the more powerful zero-level offensive witchcraft again, such as Death's Bite, Secondary Shadow Bolt, etc., but first chose two continuous defensive witchcraft [Bone Armor] and [Dark Elemental Protection]. Shield] to make up for your own defense shortcomings.

[Bone Armor Art] Continuously consumes mental power, attracts dark elemental energy and bone meal to form multiple white bones that rotate around the whole body at high speed. The witchcraft medium: bone meal is required when casting the spell.

One of the prerequisite courses of Bone Armor Art is to manipulate skeletons, which Li Cha has already mastered proficiently.

[Dark Elemental Shield] Consumes about three points of mental power to induce dark elemental energy to envelop the whole body in the form of bubbles.

Although both are defensive to witchcraft, there is still a big difference. Bone armor is more suitable for resisting physical attacks, such as sword slashing, etc., while dark elemental shield is more suitable for resisting all elemental witchcraft attacks.

Then, Li Cha chose a relatively common zero-level witchcraft [Slow Art]. The reason for choosing it is also very simple. The case of the crossbow master.

[Slowness Technique]: Consume about two points of mental power, arouse the power of the dark element, apply the curse of slowness, and reduce the enemy's movement speed and attack speed.

Speaking of slowing, the white wizard's slowing technique is to induce the power of the earth element, exert the influence of gravity, and reduce the speed of movement and attack.

And the black wizard's slowing technique is essentially a curse that arouses the power of dark elements!
If Li Cha didn't take the paid courses, he really wouldn't understand the difference.

Today, Li Cha will start to practice these three witchcrafts, and he plans to start with the simplest slowing technique.

[It is found that the host is performing zero-level witchcraft slowing, is/is it consuming energy to obtain zero-level witchcraft slowing inspiration? 】

This time, looking at the numbers 1 and 8200 at both ends of the slider, Li Cha thought for a while, decided to drag the slider to the 1000 position, and chose "Yes!"

For a while, Li Cha's soul came to the dream space again, this time he came to an empty wasteland, he was possessed by a vague figure wearing a hood,

As soon as he possessed the body, he saw the first rune of the slow spell in his mind, which was slowly outlined by the spiritual power, but failed very quickly.

The slow spell is composed of three runes in total, and once outlined, it can form a witchcraft model.

Since Li Cha has already had many times of experience in outlining runes, especially with Rodrigue Meditation and one of the most difficult zero-level witchcraft, the Shadow Grip, after several attempts, Li Cha is Slowly getting the hang of it.
With the blessing of the state of inspiration, soon, the first rune in Li Cha's mind was successfully outlined, and he only tried more than ten times!

After the first rune was quickly outlined, Li Cha continued to outline the second rune in his mind
This time, it took a lot of time, and it took nearly a hundred attempts to succeed!
After a long time, the third rune was also successfully outlined by Li Cha!

So far, the witchcraft model of the slow spell has been formed in his mind. What Li Cha needs to do now is to find a living creature, cast the slow spell on it, and evaluate the witchcraft effect.

But when Li Cha looked around, it was empty and lonely, but there was not a single living thing.

Just when Li Cha was thinking how great it would be if a few wolves could come and let him try the slowing technique, suddenly, the scene in front of him was blurred.

When it became clear again, I saw the phantoms of three prairie wolves grinning at me tens of meters away.

hiss!The dream space actually has this function!

But that's right, in the dream, of course you can have whatever you want, but I don't know if it will consume more energy points.

Immediately, Li Cha cast the slowing technique on the prairie wolf closest to him.

The slowness technique that just started, often failed to perform, and finally cast one, only to see a cloud of black mist, quickly covering the prairie wolf.

I saw that the running speed of the prairie wolf decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the range was not very large. Li Cha estimated that the entry-level slow technique only reduced the opponent's speed by about 20% to 30%.

So, this time, in the dream, he still didn't run past the prairie wolf, failed!
Fall down and get up again, keep trying!

Finally, after thousands of failures, Li Cha did it!

Before the three prairie wolves fell on him, he gave them all a slow spell, and then dragged them into his own fighting rhythm!

When Li Cha returned to the main body again, he called up the panel and saw [Witchcraft] Slow (58% proficient)!
Li Cha is still very satisfied with this. Although 1000 points of energy is not a small amount, in comparison, being able to push the slow technique to the level of proficiency is quite beyond his expectations.

It seems that the commonality of witchcraft has saved him a lot of energy points!

Then came the next witchcraft.

[It is found that the host is performing the zero-level witchcraft bone armor, is/is it consuming energy to obtain the zero-level witchcraft bone armor inspiration? 】

[It is found that the host is casting a zero-level witchcraft dark element shield, is/is it consuming energy to obtain the inspiration for the zero-level witchcraft dark element shield? 】

After a long time, Li Cha stared at the information on the panel and fell into deep thought.
