Chapter 7 (2/2)

Andrew could not help but felt a little excited.

‘To be able to unleash such power from an ordinary second-rate fireball, I’m afraid I can be considered one of the best among the beginner mages!’

He was thinking about it with some complacency when he suddenly came to his senses and remembered the previous conversation between Topa and his son. According to the standards of Star Race, those true geniuses could use the intermediate spells in the level of the beginner mage with the method of casting spells across levels!

‘In other words, to casting spells across levels, I should reach Level 50 at least. My second-rate fireball spell is far from reaching that level.’

‘Since I am a hundredfold talented now, then I should do my best at every level.’

Andrew frowned and made up his mind.

Soon, he had a plan. The second-rate fireball spell was not the most powerful primary fire spell. Moreover, Andrew first learned this spell about 50 years ago. There might be some new magic books published and it was very likely that some magic spells were far stronger and better than the fire spell he was currently practicing.

‘I need to go to the library first.’ Andrew made a decision.

In the Moore Republic, The Mage Council formulated various policies. Although the wars were endless here, there were many facilities that benefited the people, including the public magic library. It mainly helped the mages from poor families raise their strength through self-learning, and it could also help find some hidden geniuses.

Of course, it was impossible for the public library to store all of the precious magical materials in the Moore Republic. Some intermediate or advanced magic was very valuable and might not be available in the library. But all books about elementary magic were available.

Hence, Andrew was not worried that he would go there in vain.

…

After leaving the deserted mountains, Andrew chose to take an ordinary magic airship to the library. The public library was a little far from here and it would take more time to walk there. So he would rather spend some money and went here by airship.

About half an hour later, the airship stopped at the library. Andrew walked out with some curiosity.

“Has this place been renovated again?”

He asked. It had been more than twenty years since the last time he came to this library.

At that time, the library only covered a small area of about one hundred square meters. At present, its area had been expanded by three times. Moreover, it had been built into a building complex that was about four stories tall.

In the direction where Andrew had come from, he could see the words ‘Public Library of the Moore Republic’ produced by runic power in the sky.

After looking around for a while, Andrew did not appreciate the scenery around the library anymore. Instead, he quickly walked into the building where the books about elementary spells were stored. Then, under the guidance of the administrator, he came to a bookshelf to find the books he needed.

Andrew casually looked around. Then his eyes lit up and he took out a book called “Beginner’s Ring of Fire Resistance” from the bookshelf. He opened the book and saw the introduction on it.

This magic was not known for its power but was a life-saving spell. One could use fire magic to create a shockwave to push away the enemies around it.

In theory, as long as one didn’t have a death wish, any fire element beginner mage would learn this magic. Back then, Andrew had thought the same, but his talent was too bad and he couldn’t grasp it, so he had been brooding over it.

This time, he felt that he could learn this magic again.

Andrew flipped through a few pages and roughly understood the composition of the runes for this spell. They were: Concentrated magic, fire release, magic shaping and impact. Three of them were universal runes, and there was only one fire-type rune.

“Why does it look so easy?”

Andrew pondered and casually sketched out these few runes in his mind.

This time, what once he felt like a difficult operation for him was done almost effortlessly.

Following that, the flames around him expanded rapidly, emitting an awe-inspiring impact!

In the next second, the bookshelves around him fell to the ground..
