Chapter 134 Kevin's Intentions
The speedboat sent away seven handsome but depressed young men.
On the island beach, Kevin was touching a black-armored skeleton general who was standing like a sculpture, and watching Mu Hua and Paige walking on the beach from a distance. Finally, Kevin walked towards them with a sullen look on his face.
Kevin possesses the psychic physique required by a necromancer. For children like them who were born into wealthy and powerful families, it is not a fantasy to give themselves the ability of clairvoyance.
Mu Hua scared away all his friends, but he didn't dare to confront Mu Hua. Mu Hua's skill in creating undead also made him astounded by him.
"Bang~bang~bang~" Dozens of fireballs exploded on the sea surface, creating water columns. It turned out that Mu Hua was scattering a fireball into the sea.
"How about it, can this be used for enchantment?" Mu Hua asked Paji beside him.
"Intrinsic magic?" Padge frowned.
"It shouldn't be considered inherent magic." Mu Hua shook his head.
Conventional magic, even forbidden spells, are like standard answers that have been summarized over countless years. They are efficient, standardized, and have clear learning requirements and learning processes.
The so-called domain magic, also known as inherent magic, can be understood as a more complex compound magic with personal style.
It is a fusion of multiple types of magic, involving the nature of personal magic, and contains the caster's personal understanding and changes to these magics. It is difficult to learn and requires many and demanding learning conditions.
This also means that even if this kind of magic is taught by the caster himself, others can only learn it vaguely at best, and the mana consumption is often far higher than the "genuine version", so the name "inherent magic" has a certain exclusive meaning.
At this time, Mu Hua chatted with Paji about enchantment, demonstrated magic, and asked Paji if it was possible to enchant props with this magic.
"This is already considered inherent magic, right? Enchanters all hate this kind of magic, and yours is a bit low in strength, not cost-effective." Paji suppressed her curiosity about Mu Hua, analyzed from the perspective of an enchanter, and shook her head.
"The magic formula of your magic must be complicated. Not to mention the requirements for the enchanter himself, the engraving of the magic circle consumes a lot of magic stones and requires a high strength of the carrier."
"According to my assessment, the materials and energy consumed by enchanting this magic, including the magic power required to activate it, are probably enough to engrave the Fire Meteorite Spell. The cost-effectiveness is too low." Paji explained to Mu Hua.
"Does enchantment consume energy?" Mu Hua muttered as he pondered.
When an enchanter adds magic to equipment items, he does not need to be able to cast the magic. He only needs to complete the enchantment process of the carrier and finally find a spellcaster to cooperate in replicating the magic.
The strength of the magic bestowed has nothing to do with the enchanter, but is affected by the caster who replicates the magic.
As for his own unorthodox fireball technique, Mu Hua had considered the effect of increasing the magic strength in the future, but increasing the magic strength would increase the requirements for the enchantment carrier.
From the perspective of economic value and universality, what Padge said seems to be correct. Intrinsic magic is not very popular among enchanters.
"Hey, Mu, are you really only twenty-four years old?" Kevin's questioning voice interrupted the communication between Mu Hua and Paige.
"What? Do you need to see my ID card?" Mu Hua said with a smile. His conversation with Paige was just casual chatting, and when Kevin arrived, they stopped talking about enchantment.
Facing Mu Hua's harmless teasing, Kevin shook his head helplessly. He was still a little afraid of Mu Hua.
"You scared all my teammates away." Kevin said to Mu Hua with his shoulders slumped, as if complaining or grumbling.
"That's their own choice. Your corpse-hunting dogs will never be able to transform their physiques in this lifetime. Necromancers are not a very harmonious combat profession." Mu Hua shook his head.
"Who said I have to rely on corpse hounds? You are so cruel. I have trained Caesar for a long time." Kevin retorted.
"Not relying on corpse-hunting dogs? Then you shouldn't bring them here to enjoy the sunshine and beach. You need to find a remote cemetery first and apply for the job of gravekeeper." Mu Hua rolled his eyes.
"Tsk~ So, you come to trouble me without Patty telling you anything." Kevin looked at Patty with dissatisfaction. Patty gave him a cold look. Kevin shrank his neck and then put away the strange expression on his face.
"I am just cultivating their interest in necromancy. We spend more time discussing how to fight against demons."
"They all come from well-off families. Once they get the sacrificial array, we can try to summon demons and use contracts to help them gain psychic qualities." Kevin explained to Mu Hua.
"Hehe." Mu Hua had a strange expression and patted Kevin's shoulder.
"If you don't commit suicide, you won't die. Since you want to train them, why don't you just prepare a sacrificial array for them?"
"I would like to, but Webber and Page are unwilling to help me." Kevin spread his hands, but he didn't show any excitement or dissatisfaction, which made Mu Hua chuckle and shake his head.
Summon a demon? Putting aside the illegality of the sacrificial array, Samantha wanted to help Mu Hua summon a demon, but in addition to various resources, Samantha at least found a demon who seemed to be quite powerful to follow Mu Hua.
The demons that respond to sacrifices are not necessarily powerful, but they are definitely smart and cunning. It is not easy to fight with them in a battle of wits and courage.
Actually, Kevin's personality is pretty good, a bit indulgent like a naughty kid, but very different from the bad second generation kid that Mu Hua imagined.
But think about it, after all, they all received elite education. Settings like making enemies for no reason and killing the whole family over a disagreement are obviously not included in the scope of elite education.
"Okay, okay, I apologize for scaring your friend away." Mu Hua spoke to Kevin insincerely, as if coaxing a child, which again earned Kevin's eye roll.
Kevin didn't like rolling his eyes, but facing Mu Hua, he felt that this was both a way to express his protest and... relatively safe.
"Why do you want to be a necromancer? Look, now I tell others that I am an elemental mage, and the reputation of necromancers is not good at all." Mu Hua held up a ball of fire in his palm and advised Kevin.
Having clairvoyance does not necessarily mean becoming a necromancer. Some powerful people use demons to gain clairvoyance, which is more to make up for the defects, adapt to the breath of death, and to prevent themselves from being harmed by ghosts without knowing it.
"Because it's cool. Legend has it that the Seventh King once launched a plague of undead and flattened a planetary courtyard by himself."
"What's so good about being an elemental mage? I don't have enough resistance to the elements, and I don't dare to cast many spells myself."
"How many black-armored skeleton generals do you have? Let them out and let me see them." Kevin Xiangwang said as he moved closer to Mu Hua.
"Isn't that enough for you to see?" Mu Hua pointed at the black-armored skeleton general left on the beach.
"After the Undead Scourge, the courtyard was abandoned. I heard that you are good at dealing with Warcraft. Wouldn't it be good for you to learn some druidic skills?" Mu Hua avoided Kevin and refused the other party's request.
High-level undead can easily cause death pollution to the outside world. If they gather in large numbers, the lush land will naturally be polluted and turned into a burial ground.
Mu Hua went further and further on the path of undead magic simply because the summoned beast that came with his own skeleton summoning was so powerful.
Mu Hua was obviously not interested in Kevin's pursuit.
"Druids are all sissies. They themselves can't even explain how to comprehend those secret arts."
"Mu, you scared away my friend. As compensation, please accept me as your disciple!" Mu Hua dodged, but Kevin did not take it as an offense. Instead, he approached him again with a playful smile.
"Sorry, I'm busy. Besides, I'm an alchemist." Mu Hua spread his hands.
"You just said it was an elemental mage." Kevin muttered.
"Elemental mages are just a hobby."
"What about necromancy?"
“It’s also an interest.”
"Teach me, I'm interested too."
"You are annoying, okay, okay, come, take a look at this." Mu Hua waved his hand to shake off Kevin's drag, and with his consciousness, a magic spell drawn by magic lines appeared in front of Kevin.
Kevin's face lit up with delight. He watched intently, using his consciousness to explore the technique module.
"Don't look!" Paggie took a quick glance and hurried to stop Kevin, but it seemed a little too late.
"Ugh!" In just a short moment, Kevin's healthy face turned pale and he leaned over and began to dry heave.
"Mu, you tricked me! Ugh~!" Kevin pointed a trembling finger at Mu Hua.
"Hey! It was you who said you were interested." Mu Hua retorted, put his hands behind his head, turned around and walked away.
Paige smiled bitterly, looked at Kevin who was kneeling on the beach and retching, then looked at Mu Hua who was walking away, and after a moment she caught up with Mu Hua, leaving Kevin alone on the beach retching.
Well, although it is safe to investigate this kind of spell disassembly, it causes a greater shock to people's consciousness than reading a magic book.
Obviously, it was a little too early for Kevin to use inherent magic, even if it was just an irregular fireball spell.
