The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

Can spell runes be condensed without consuming mental energy?

Listening to the explanation from the Fishman Ghost.

The wizard apprentices immediately realized the immense power of this alchemical artifact called the [Spell Rune Seal].

After all, to restore one's mental strength, one must either consume resources or time.

Ether particles are everywhere.

Simply by practicing the "Ether Meditation Method," one can draw etheric particles from the surrounding environment into the "Spell Rune Seal."

Then the corresponding spell runes can appear in the soul space.

In this way...

As long as the soul space is large enough.

This method allows for the creation of enough spell runes to be applied to spell models without being constrained by mental power.

Ansu was also in the classroom.

Therefore, from the words of the merman ghost, they learned about the effect of the [Spell Rune Seal].

At the same time, he realized that if he obtained this seal, its role would definitely be much greater.

If calculated based on mental strength...

With the size of my current soul space, it is comparable to that of a wizard with a mental strength of four digits.

It can also accommodate hundreds or even thousands of spell models.

When the Murloc Ghost previously explained how to construct spell models.

Ansu then learned that a large number of runes were needed to construct high-level spell models in the soul space.

It also requires a lot of duplicate runes.

For example, if you want to create a rune called Fireball.

Furthermore, after launching a fireball, one should be able to freely control its trajectory.

You need to first construct a fire rune and a push rune.

And various other auxiliary runes.

Then it condensed into a fireball that could fly in a straight line.

Then, an additional boosting rune is constructed and combined with runes called Aether Manipulation and Aether Link.

It can transmit commands through the etheric connection while the fireball is in flight, allowing the fireball to adjust its flight trajectory according to its own thoughts.

It can even be combined with other runes to split the fireball into multiple pieces.

Alternatively, you could load more advancement runes located throughout the spell model.

This allows the fireball to fly without losing speed when turning in any direction, thus enabling it to be used for more purposes...

"As long as the soul space available to hold the spell runes is large enough."

Moreover, they possess a wealth of knowledge and runes.

This allows for unlimited upgrades to spell models.

Ansu is preparing to try to obtain the [Spell Rune Seal] provided by the Murloc Ghost during this assessment.

"With the spell model provided by the [Spell Rune Seal]..."

Then, when participating in the mid-term assessment.

The likelihood of obtaining a private laboratory will also increase.

While Anzu was analyzing the function of the [Spell Rune Seal], the merman ghost, a formal wizard, also began explaining the content of the assessment.

"The assessment method is to construct a spell model in a simulated soul space, and in an alchemical tool that can activate spells."

To prevent being influenced by mystical talents or the size of one's soul space.

As soon as he finished speaking, the space around the merman ghost flashed.

A giant slime, resembling a jelly, then appeared.

Looking at the giant slime he had taken out of his spatial artifact, the fish-man ghost continued:

"After constructing the spell in the alchemy item's [pseudo-soul space], you should use the giant slime as a target."

At the same time, spells are released through alchemical tools.

I will evaluate spells, and the evaluation will be based on three criteria:

[Spell Precision], [Spell Power], and [Energy Efficiency].

As he spoke, the fish-man ghost took out one after another alchemical artifact in the shape of a skull.

Then, he immediately used his immense mental power to interfere with these skulls.

A moment later, the skull floated into the air.

Then they continued on their way, swaying and staggering.

Before long, it landed in front of the many wizard apprentices in the classroom.

"The preparation time before the assessment is 5 hours."

The scope of runes includes all runes listed in "Basic Spell Runes Explained".

And it can be modified slightly.

The assessment will now begin.

The fish-man ghost had barely finished speaking.

The people present immediately began to analyze the book they had just acquired.

Some scan the contents of each page of the book directly using special organs, while others scan the entire book using their mental power.

Ansu, on the other hand, only has a pair of angel wings that can be freely extended and retracted.

There are currently no special supernatural organs that can assist with reading.

Therefore, he could only rely primarily on his naked eye, supplemented by his mental power, to read "Detailed Explanation of Basic Spell Runes".

But even so.

Because the mysterious attribute, which represents a talent for mysticism, is not low.

Therefore, Anzu's efficiency in understanding and analyzing runes is not slow.

Not long after.

With the added benefit of mystical attributes, Anzu deciphered the amount of ether contained within each rune:

0.01.

All of them were like the original version of the "Death Breathing Technique" that Anzu obtained from the Gravekeeper Knight Ryan.

"After the ether concentration drops to 0.01."

Even if more people learn the relevant knowledge, the concentration of ether contained within that knowledge will not decrease further.

The effects of these spell runes will not be affected in the slightest.

No wonder he handed it over to all the apprentices so easily.

Ansu thought to herself.

Then, while conceiving the most suitable spell for himself in his mind, he invoked the alchemical artifact in the shape of a skull.

Thus, within the skull's [pseudo-soul space], the core runes of the spell runes are outlined.

[Building spell model, proficiency +1]

[Proficiency +1]

[Proficiency +1...]

The notification sound for the [Job Panel] rang out again.

This can be considered as applying relevant knowledge in practice.

Therefore, each time, as before, only 1 point of proficiency can be increased.

However, the frequency of the "Proficiency +1" notification pop-up has been increased.

The efficiency of improving proficiency in [Knowledge-Spell Model Construction] is also accelerating.

Not long after.

I have just completed the construction of the core runes and several auxiliary runes in the skull's [pseudo-soul space].

The [Profession Panel] once again displayed a series of messages:

[Proficiency +1]

[Knowledge-Spell Model Construction Lv.0→Lv.1]

Job requirements for the "Apprentice Wizard" profession:
