Chapter 21 The Conception of the Concoction Technique
After returning to the stone house, Rowling immediately began to try it.
Initially, when two particles get close, they will collide violently, either annihilating each other or scattering out of control.
But he was not discouraged. Recalling the explanations of Wizard Stone and his insights from the Elemental Well, he carefully felt the subtle repulsive force field between the two types of particles and tried to use his mental power to construct a buffer zone.
The expertise of the "Highly Effective Scholar" plays a role in understanding and finding techniques.
After dozens of failures, he gradually figured out a technique to use mental energy to simulate a neutral environment and weaken particle conflicts.
Two days later, he was able to barely maintain an unstable balance between the two particles on his fingertips for more than five minutes.
This process is extremely mentally taxing, but it also has a remarkable effect on training one's mental control.
In the second lesson, Wizard Stone checked the homework.
Few apprentices were able to meet the requirements, and Kyle Silvershine was one of them. The red and blue particles in front of him were steadily suspended, demonstrating his solid foundation.
When Wizard Stone walked up to Rowling, the two slightly trembling particles on Rowling's fingertips barely met the requirements.
Wizard Stone nodded without saying anything more, but there seemed to be a hint of approval in his eyes.
Kyle's expression darkened when he saw this.
The course continues to delve deeper, beginning to explain the synergy and constraints of particles with different attributes within a spell model.
Luo Lin absorbed this systematic knowledge with great eagerness, and many of the doubts he had encountered in his previous self-study were suddenly cleared up.
He compared this new knowledge with his research on potion energy diagrams and magic circle energy flow, and felt that his understanding of the nature of energy was building an increasingly clear framework.
At the same time, he did not give up his studies in other areas.
The laboratory continued to operate as usual, and Wizard Eric knew he was attending Wizard Stone's classes.
Occasionally, he would ask about his learning progress and offer guidance on energy stability and life fields from a perspective different from the elementalists, broadening Rolin's horizons.
The Moon Orchid with the improved nourishing array finally bloomed quietly one evening.
The pale blue petals emitted a hazy glow, exuding a tranquil and gentle aura.
Successfully cultivating this magical plant gave Rolin a sense of accomplishment no less than learning a new spell.
He carefully collected the petals; they were a good ingredient for a calming potion.
Days passed by in a flurry of activity.
Rowling's life seemed to have formed a virtuous cycle.
Resources are acquired through laboratory work and the sale of small quantities of pharmaceuticals. These resources are then used to improve oneself, which in turn feeds back into work and research, resulting in greater efficiency and deeper insights.
His strength was steadily and firmly improving. Although the level progress on the panel was still slow, he could feel that his foundation was becoming more and more solid, and his understanding and application of power was far superior to when he had just been promoted to the third rank.
The minor disturbance within the academy had long since subsided, and Rowling remained the low-key and busy apprentice, only occasionally attracting some attention during Wizard Stone's classes.
Everything was calm until Wizard Stone announced the final assessment task before the course ended.
"Your final test is to independently design and successfully execute a minimally invasive complexion technique."
Stone Wizard's voice echoed in the classroom.
"Requires at least two types of energy particles with different properties; structure and effects are up to you."
"It can be offensive, defensive, or supportive."
"Demonstrate the results in one month."
"This will determine whether you receive a certificate of completion for my course and a position as a lab assistant in my lab."
A collective gasp filled the classroom.
Designing spells independently, even those with minor effects or complex designs, is an extremely high challenge for a third-class apprentice.
This requires a comprehensive application of all the particle manipulation knowledge learned, as well as a deep understanding of spell model construction.
A confident glint appeared in Kyle Silverlight's eyes, as if he had been prepared for this, or rather, he was confident of success.
Most of the other apprentices looked troubled.
Luo Lin was also slightly taken aback, and then fell into deep thought.
Designing spells independently... this is a perfect opportunity to test all the lessons he has learned during this period.
He didn't look at anyone else; his mind was already racing, considering which two attributes to choose and what kind of effect to create.
New challenges are already looming ahead.
Luo Lin knew that he couldn't keep a completely low profile this time.
He needs to produce tangible results to prove his value and potential.
After Wizard Stone announced the final assessment task, the atmosphere in the classroom became noticeably heavy.
Most of the apprentices wore expressions of pressure and contemplation, whispering their thoughts to each other.
Kyle merely glanced coldly at Rowling before leaving the classroom with a hint of arrogance.
Rowling was not in a hurry to leave.
He sat down and carefully considered Stone Wizard's request once more.
Independent design, minimal effect, at least two attributes, custom structure.
These keywords swirled in his mind.
Instead of immediately thinking about what specific effect to create, Rowling first determined the choice of attributes.
The clash between fire and water is intense and presents the greatest challenge.
The combination of wind and soil can produce effects similar to dust or slowing down.
The combination of water and soil may be associated with nutrient or swamp.
The combination of wind and water... He thought of the similarities between the flow of wind and the intangible nature of water that he had felt in the Gale Elemental Well.
Perhaps it's easier to control?
Moreover, his recent understanding of energy particles also stems largely from his insights into the element of wind.
After initially establishing wind and water as the two fundamental attributes, Roland began to consider the effects of spells.
Offensive spell?
He already has [Acid Splash] and [Acid Etching Ray], so he doesn't need them for now.
Defensive?
The [Weak Force Field Armor] is also being continuously improved.
He preferred to create a practical, supportive spell.
He realized that he often needed to process materials and concoct potions, which required a certain level of cleanliness and stability in the environment.
A spell that can disperse dust, purify odors, and even slightly calm energy disturbances in a small area seems very useful.
Wind is responsible for dispersing and flowing.
Water can purify and soothe.
This combination seems feasible.
After his thoughts became clearer, Luo Lin got up and left the classroom.
Instead of returning to the stone house, he went straight to the library to look up all the information about the fundamental particle configurations of wind and water properties, and the possible synergistic effects between them.
Designing spells is not something that can be done out of thin air; it requires a solid theoretical foundation.
In the days that followed, Luo Lin entered a state of even greater focus and busyness.
He devoted most of his energy to designing this minimally invasive technique.
During the day, he consulted numerous books in the library, studying basic wind and water runes, as well as their application examples in different spell models.
He used his "literacy" feature to quickly browse through those ancient notes and manuscripts, seeking inspiration.
Rowling discovered that the most common application of combining wind and water was to create fog or ice, but this deviated from his original intention.
What he needs is more precise control, not a change in form.
At night, he conducted countless theoretical deductions and model building attempts in the stone house.
Using his mental power, Rolin sketched simple rune nodes in the air, attempting to combine them according to a specific sequence and energy flow path.
This process was fraught with failures.
Either the wind element is too restless, causing structural instability, or the water element is too stagnant, making it difficult for the effect to spread.
Or the two energies simply cannot work together effectively, and the model collapses and dissipates as soon as it is built.
The immense mental strain often left Rolin with splitting headaches.
Even so, he still enjoyed it. Each failure deepened his understanding of the properties of the two particles and made him more accurate in grasping the delicate balance of energy synergy.
During this time, when he worked in the wizard Eric's laboratory, he would occasionally ask questions about energy stability and field balance, but he did not reveal that he was designing specific spells.
Wizard Eric seemed to have figured something out and gave some pointers on techniques for "building energy field gradients" and "setting mental anchor points".
These seemingly unrelated pieces of knowledge gave Rowling new inspiration.
