426 Accessibility to Any Level-3 Spells (2/2)
Also, Blind Vision was not appreciated among the Mages, because it was not nearly as useful as Mind Vision.
Eyes could be tricked easily, but the mind could hardly be.
Roland turned the pages and took pictures of the book with the camera function in the system.
Very soon, he put the book down and picked up another one.
He quickly skimmed through all the other five books, only to find that the six level-three spells were all ancillary spells including Direction, Mental Comfort, etc.
Every spell had its own value, but from a pragmatic point of view, Roland was only interested in Moderate Wound Healing.
Then, there was the last book.
Roland looked at the Mage who was standing at his side. He saw the cover of the book that the Mage was holding.
The cover said ”Flashing Magic Ball.”
Roland's eyes glittered, as it was clearly an offensive spell.
Though Roland knew a few useful offensive spells, including Prismatic Spray, Arcane Bullet, and Chain Lightning, those spells had their own drawbacks, and it would take very long for him to prepare before he could launch a Grand Fireball.
He was in dire need of a spell which was powerful and could be cast quickly.
A level-three offensive spell should be able to meet his demand.
As if he sensed Roland's gaze, the Mage closed the book he was reading and turned to Roland.
His face was rather plain, but it couldn't be helped. Most Mages had added their points to Intelligence. They didn't have enough points for Charm.
Vivian was an exception. She was very pretty, so she was only mediocre in magic.
The male Mage looked at Roland up and down and asked, ”You want to read my book?”
Roland nodded.
”You've read all of these?” The Mage pointed at the bookshelf.
”Yes.” Roland nodded again. ”I have a special memory.”
”An eidetic memory.” The man clicked his tongue enviously. ”You must be very gifted.”
It was well-known that memory was a sign of Intelligence. While the people with high Intelligence couldn't remember everything that happened, their memory couldn't be bad.
”You can have it.” The Mage gave the book to Roland without hesitation.
”You've finished it?”
The Mage shrugged. ”In fact, I have no idea what the book talks about.”
Then why did you seem so fascinated by the book just now?
Roland opened the book the moment he accepted it.
Flashing Magic Ball was a very powerful spell. Though it was not as good as Grand Fireball, it had a high speed and was very stealthy.
As its name suggested, the magic balls launched by this spell could flash, which meant that they alternated between visible and invisible. It was hard to figure out their trajectory.
Those magic balls could take turns too.
In fact, most trajectory spells could change their direction under the control of the Mages.
But the angle of Flashing Magic Ball was bigger. While most spells couldn't be turned over ten degrees, Flashing Magic Ball could be turned in about thirty degrees.
With enough magic power, Flashing Magic Ball could even took a turn back.
This was a level-three elemental spell that generally couldn't be learned until level eight.
Roland was already level seven, and his mental growth was high enough for him to learn the spell. Most importantly, for an Elemental Lord, the difficulty to learn all elemental spells would automatically be reduced by a level.
Learning level-two spells were now as simple to him as eating food.
Reading the spell models for about ten minutes and simulating them in his head, he made a snatching motion with his right hand, and a ball of plasma appeared in his palm.
The male Mage had been observing Roland. He was so shocked that he cried out and stepped back.
He was frightened.
His cry caught the attention of the other Mages, who all looked at Roland in surprise.
They had all read the model of Flashing Magic Ball and memorized it, but none of them could cast it yet because it was too complicated for them.
Yet, the young man had picked it up already?
That couldn't be true. He must've learned it before and came here intentionally to show off.
Roland didn't care what they were thinking. He carefully sensed the ball in his hand and then dispersed the magic power.
He shook his head.
Not good enough… He could tell that Flashing Magic Ball was more powerful than Prismatic Spray and Arcane Bullet, but it was not as good as he expected.
After all, he still had Grand Fireball, his ultimate skill.
He had to modify the spell. Just as Fireball, this spell could be improved.
Roland suddenly wasn't interested in any quests anymore. He only wanted to go back to his Magic Tower and perfect this spell.
But a promise was a promise. He couldn't renege.
Now, Roland finally understood why so many books in the library in his Magic Tower said that a real Mage had no family or friends but only magic!
