Wizard Immortal

Chapter 84 Casting Spells

In the spacious room, Adir sat quietly.

A sudden, agonizing sense of mental turmoil caused Adir's template-building progress to halt.

"Failed again."

Suppressing the mental tearing sensation surging through his mind, Adir covered his head with his right hand and sat there muttering to himself.

This was his fifth time building the template, and without exception, each time it crashed at the very beginning due to an error somewhere, making it impossible to stabilize completely.

"I failed five times, and I was on the verge of mental collapse."

Feeling a sense of mental exhaustion, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.

The material needed to construct a spell template is mental energy. Regardless of whether the construction is successful or not, it will consume the wizard's own mental energy.

Therefore, if you fail too many times, your mental energy will be quickly depleted and you will need a long time to recover.

"Try building it three or four more times, and then you have to stop, otherwise it might cause mental damage."

As he assessed his mental state, Adir thought with a sense of helplessness.

The mental strength of a second-class apprentice is not very high; even after constructing a few templates, there is a risk of exhausting it.

"The chip simulates the construction of spell templates in the mind."

Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he gave an order to the chip in his mind.

The memory chip itself has the function of deduction and analysis. With its powerful computing power, it can try to simulate the construction process of the spell template in the mind and then transmit the whole process to him.

The next instant, Adir closed his eyes.

Through the simulation on the chip, he felt as if he had entered a dark, empty space. In this space, a large amount of data was flowing around and converging towards the center.

Under Adir's watchful gaze, a complex template was slowly coalescing and rapidly being constructed in space.

When the simulation ended, a vast amount of information flooded Adir's mind.

He opened his eyes, a flash of understanding crossing them.

Compared to figuring out how to construct a template in one's mind, this simulation is undoubtedly more intuitive and effective. The chip's immense computing power can directly simulate the complex construction process of a spell template, allowing him to observe it directly.

Without hesitation, Adir closed his eyes and continued to construct the spell template in his mind.

Having gone through the previous simulation process, Adir did not fail in the same place again this time. He completed the initial construction process directly, and only encountered a mistake when the construction was halfway complete.

A sharp pain shot through his mind, and Adir stopped, resting in a chair for a while before resuming his construction.

The second and third attempts to build the template both failed, but most of the template was successfully built.

"Try again, but stop no matter if it doesn't work!"

Despite feeling intense mental exhaustion, Adir continued to build his mental framework.

This time, he constructed it smoothly. After more than ten minutes, a rough outline of a spell template appeared in his mind and was about to be completed.

"It's done!!"

A slight vibration suddenly came to my mind.

Maintaining this template and feeling his mental energy rapidly dissipating, Adir walked to a corner to the side.

In that corner, there were some flowerpots with some green seedlings that had already sprouted.

Upon arriving there, Adir immediately unleashed the spells in his mind.

A unique feeling washed over me.

As the spell template was activated, in that instant, Adir felt some of the absorbed energy particles rushing out of his body and into the formed spell template.

A pale green light appeared before his eyes, quickly surfacing before him.

Amazing changes began to occur.

Under Adir's watchful gaze, the newly sprouted seedlings began to grow, quickly transforming from seedlings into mature plants several centimeters tall.

"Is this the power of a wizard?"

Looking at the changes before him, Adir sighed inwardly, somewhat moved.

Even after releasing the spell, the fatigue lingered in his mind.

"My mental energy is depleted; I need to rest for a while."

Looking at the lush green plants in front of him and feeling mentally exhausted, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.

Excessive mental energy depletion is a common problem for wizarding apprentices. At this time, the wizard's mind will be extremely exhausted, and he will not only be unable to cast spells, but he will also be unable to enter a meditative state. It can be said to be the weakest time for a wizard.

If it were a wizard with abundant wealth, he could simply drink some spirit-replenishing potions at this time, but Adir is still a penniless man and naturally cannot enjoy this treatment.

He walked to the bedside, and without changing his clothes, lay down, ready to get a good night's sleep.

This is also the best way for ordinary apprentices to recover their mental energy, as mental energy recovers much faster than usual while asleep.

Lying in bed, Adir closed his eyes and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

He didn't wake up until noon the next day.

"My mental strength has recovered somewhat, but not completely."

Silently standing up, feeling the fatigue that still lingered in his mind, Adir felt somewhat helpless.

Because of the excessive mental exertion before, even after a night's rest, my mental strength has only recovered by a small portion. It will take at least three or four days to fully recover.

"Looks like I won't be able to meditate for the next few nights."

Standing still, Adir muttered to himself.

After a while, he turned around and looked at the corner where the spell had been cast yesterday.

There, the flowerpot still stood quietly, containing several plants, but they didn't look to be in good condition.

The plant's leaves have begun to turn yellow, giving it an overall rotten appearance, a stark contrast to its vibrant green color yesterday.

"It has already begun to wither."

Standing still, Adir carefully examined the area and finally came to this conclusion.

He shook his head: "Sure enough, even the most basic spells are not so simple to cast perfectly."

If properly applied, normal plant catalysis can undoubtedly accelerate the plant's growth process, and the resulting plants will be healthy, avoiding the problems we are currently facing.

The real problem lies in the process of casting the spell.

A spell template is a complex structure built from mental energy. In order to successfully cast a spell, in addition to building a stable spell template in one's mind, one also needs to inject the corresponding energy particles into the spell template.

For example, the basic spell Plant Catalysis requires a large amount of plant-based energy particles to be injected during its release, as well as a large amount of other types of energy particles. Only by injecting these particles into the spell template in the appropriate proportions and methods can the spell achieve the desired effect.

This is a very complex process. In addition to the spell template being constructed stably, the energy particles that serve as the energy source must also be flawless, otherwise the spell's effect will change and it will not produce a stable effect.

If the spell is cast incorrectly, it might result in the loss of mental and magical energy, ultimately failing to unleash the spell; it might also lead to the casting of a plant catalysis spell that destroys the plant's vitality...

Of course, even if the spell is cast correctly, it is still necessary to understand the target of the spell.

In the case of plant catalysis, in addition to correctly casting the spell, one must also be familiar with the plant's information during the release process. Besides understanding the most basic species and habits, one also needs to have a thorough understanding of the plant's general structure, growth period, and so on, in order to make adjustments according to the specific situation.

Even within the field of plant catalysis, the methods of catalysis vary greatly depending on the plant species. A thorough understanding is necessary before attempting to implement it, making it an extremely complex discipline.

Thinking of this, Adir felt a headache coming on and couldn't help but look at the few flowers and plants in front of him that were about to wither.

The plants in front of me are clearly the result of improper spellcasting. Although they were successfully catalyzed, their vitality has been almost completely exhausted, leaving them as nothing more than empty shells.

This is just an ordinary weed, with a strong vitality and simple environmental requirements. It belongs to the group that is easiest to catalyze. Plants with unique characteristics will only have higher requirements for catalysis.

"Alright, my mental strength hasn't fully recovered yet, so let's leave the magic for now."

Looking at the flowerpot in front of him, Adir stood up and looked out the window: "After studying potions for so long, it's time to give it a try."

In his studies of pharmacy, Adil had now progressed to the stage of taking paid courses.

At this stage, logically speaking, one can start practicing by refining some low-level potions.

This is also a form of learning. After all, the ultimate goal of studying pharmacy is to refine medicines. In the process of learning, one must naturally practice to learn, just like other higher disciplines that require experiments to observe data.

Thinking of this, he silently disposed of the plants in the flowerpot, changed his clothes, and then walked out of the dormitory.

Stepping out of the dormitory building, the fresh air rushed in, carrying a gentle breeze that brushed against Adir's face.

He looked around, chose a side path, and quickly headed towards his destination.
