Chapter 30: Reading magic

　　　　 The Tower of Time, one floor, one corner of the hall.
　　 The official apprentice Colin is teaching the mystery of [Reading Magic] to the new apprentices who joined the Mage Tower. He speaks very fast, but with the help of the summoned light and shadow, a new apprentice does not feel too strenuous.
　　 It’s just that the notes may not have time to write down completely.
　　 Xia Duo listened very carefully and remembered his notes very carefully. The appearance of [Reading Magic] opened the door to a new world for him.
　　 Before, under Xia Duo's own understanding, [Reading Magic] should be a special kind of spell, but Colin's teaching made him truly understand why [Reading Magic] can be the starting point and cornerstone of a wizard.
　　 To be precise, [Reading Magic] is not a spell, but a skill that can be learned, improved, and optimized, and this skill is connected with [Spell Recognition] to form a unique knowledge system.
　　 The first step is to get in touch with the magic net. Without this prerequisite, everything is unnecessary.
　　 When Colin was teaching the [Reading Magic] technique, he showed part of the spell structure in front of the apprentices. What spell structure corresponds to what effect, and what effect requires what spell structure. This is both [Spell Recognition] and [Reading Magic].
　　 The so-called spell structure is the method by which the caster manipulates the magic net. After the summary of the predecessors, some fixed formulas have been formed.
　　 There are many schools of ways to express the structure of spells, such as vocal school, singing, spells can be; action school, dancing, gestures, etc.; artifact school, using magic equipment to assist in casting.
　　 Of course, it is more of a minimalist. Faerun is not a peaceful world. The Naiser people have pioneered the wilderness for nearly a thousand years, and there are not many pioneers. People need power, the most convenient and quick power.
　　 But no matter which casting method you choose, the caster must concentrate and focus on casting. Any interference may interrupt the casting and even cause serious backlash.
　　 Therefore, most wizards will use the safest and most concise method of casting according to their own habits, usually in the form of byte spells + simple gestures or magic equipment + byte spells.
　　 Colin also taught a few commonly used byte spells to aid in the casting of spells, and warned the apprentices that when hearing these keywords, they must be able to distinguish which magic net structures they have triggered and what effects they might have.
　　 Any time of the mage is precious, but Xia Duo has been in the mage tower for a week.
　　 Colin’s class will not be like in the classroom before Xia Duo crosses, there will be interaction between teachers and students, so that the teacher can keep track of the status of the students, there is no interaction here.
　　 Colin just talks about himself, does not consider whether the apprentice can accept it or understand it, and will not mention the key points at all.
　　 Fortunately, it's only an introductory course, and everyone can keep up. If you get to the following courses, Xia Duo estimates that most of them may not be able to keep up, and you need extra tuition.
　　 "If only there was a camera!"
　　 Xia Duo couldn't help thinking about it, but even if she felt dissatisfied with her distraction, after pinching herself, she focused her attention on what Colin was teaching, and kept taking notes in her hand.
　　 After several hours of class, Colin's voice became a little hoarse, while the adorable new apprentices below were even more uncomfortable. The dense information bombardment was almost non-stop, and part was missed if he didn't pay attention.
　　 Xia Duo also rubbed his wrist. He was a little blunder today. He only brought a bottle of ink. He didn't expect to run out of only one lesson, and he had a dozen pages of notes.
　　If this continues, he will soon be short of supplies.
　　 Must think of a solution as soon as possible!
　　 Xia Duo is now reluctant to sell questioning opportunities. He found that after the formal contact method, he has endless questions to ask. Apart from curiosity, there are also many questions that cannot be understood and need to be answered.
　　 Unless he is willing to slow down his learning progress, otherwise he must find another way to make a fortune. This matter cannot be delayed.
　　 "Apprentice Xia Duo, do you have any questions?" Colin suddenly pointed to Xia Duo.
Among the twenty-odd people who chose this course this time, only Chateau was an official apprentice, and the others were not qualified to ask questions. At this time, they could only look at Chateau eagerly, praying that Chateau asked them the same questions. Want to ask.
　　 And Xia Duo has a lot of thoughts in his heart at this moment, unable to sort out, he has too many questions to ask, and it is just that, he doesn’t know what questions to choose—
　　 asked whether there is a basic principle for the structure of the spell? This seems a bit ahead, and maybe it will be discussed later.
　　 Ask for the identification information of [Reading Magic]? But this kind of information can already be counted as personal privacy. Whether Colin can say it is a problem, and how much is a problem.
　　……
　　 Suddenly Xia Duo thought of something, and immediately asked: "I would like to ask how to learn spells, or what is the process of learning spells?"
　　 The problem of Xia Duo surprised Colin. Normally, the apprentices need to learn [Reading Magic] before starting formal spell learning. Xia Duo's problem is undoubtedly a bit ahead.
　　 Some of the other apprentices who attended the class shook their heads repeatedly, seeming to feel a pity that Xia Duo wasted a chance to ask questions, and some dipped their feather pen in ink, ready to record Colin's answer at any time.
　　 Xia Duo is also ready, looking at Colin expectantly, waiting for his answer.
　　 "This question is actually very simple~EbookFREE.me~ Colin took two steps towards the restaurant before he started answering
"Today I talked about some basic knowledge of [Reading Magic], so when your [Spell Recognition] is enough, you can learn a magic through other people’s spells, or you can use other people’s description of a certain magical structure Learn it."
　　 What this said was that if the archmage saw a newly created low-level spell, he might be able to learn it instantly, but for the apprentices who hadn't even entered into Xia Duo, it was nothing short of empty talk.
Fortunately, Colin continued: "And when your [spell recognition] is not enough, you need a learning scroll, or an unencrypted spell book, through which you can read the entire structure of a spell. Then you can master it through a lot of practice."
　　 Xia Duo was overjoyed and asked, "How to practice?"
　　 But this time Colin didn't answer any more. Instead, looking at the apprentices, he said, "20 gold coins, I tell you how to practice, and you can also trade privately."
　　 "……"
　　 Not only is Xia Duo speechless, the other new apprentices are also speechless, it's a death demand for money! But once you accept this setting, it still feels good. Equivalent exchange is also the law of the world before Xia Duo crossed.
　　 It’s just that the pricing power is always in the hands of one party, and it is not an exchange of
value
.
　　 Xia Duo is not willing to accept this price, and he can't afford it. Anyway, he can ask questions again tomorrow.
　　 Seeing that Xia Duo didn't want to continue to ask questions, Colin immediately walked to the restaurant without being muddled.
　　……
　　 Colin left, and the other apprentices also dispersed, and just as Xia Duo was about to go to the restaurant to have dinner, a group of people surrounded him.
