You Bastard!

call...

Lin Xiaowei, sitting in front of her phone, couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

She is already Intermediate Rank Mage, and one of the best among Intermediate Rank Mage. She possesses four specializations, and is a standout in the Magic Association in terms of combat power, understanding of rules, and affinity.

Having experienced all of this, Lin Xiaowei naturally knew exactly what the process of becoming Second Specialization in branding was like.

That doesn't mean your proficiency will increase the moment you brand it the first time.

On the contrary,

The more specializations you have, the greater the risks and pain will become!

Because you need to harmonize the new and unfamiliar rules and energy within your soul and Magic Spirit Pool, it is actually the safest time to imprint your first Specialized Magic Rune.

The further you go, the greater the danger! Therefore, Lin Xiaowei even advised Li Yao not to try three or even four specializations! But she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Although Li Yao usually acts quite laid-back, Lin Xiaowei knows that he has his own pride.

Then we'll explain the pros and cons to her and let her decide for herself!

After catching his breath, Li Yao shook his head and said, "Damn, this is even worse than last time!"

Is it a double level of specialization and double the stimulation?

What will happen when we need to acquire the third or even Four Specializations in the future? Li Yao rubbed his temples and slumped onto the bed:

This is difficult! And...

After this ordeal, Li Yao discovered that the magic and spiritual power that had been running smoothly and quietly within his soul and Magic Spirit Pool had become somewhat chaotic.

This made Li Yao feel somewhat unable to control his emotions. What was most unbearable was that the forces were like churning mud and sand impacting his soul, which manifested physically as waves of dizziness and discomfort.

After pausing for a moment, Li Yao turned to Lin Xiaowei and said, "Is this what you meant by 'Second Specialization '? Isn't it scary?"

You're kidding me!

Lin Xiaowei: "I was just kidding you."

Li Yao: "..."

Just as he was about to say something, he heard Lin Xiaowei say in the video with a serious expression, "You should have felt the two kinds of rule energy intertwined within your soul, right? Continuing on, it will be three kinds of rule energy intertwined and conflicting. To be honest, it's quite dangerous. I don't recommend continuing to specialize in imprinting! I suggest that after you reach your peak condition this time, you can directly advance to the intermediate level!"

After all, the challenge for Intermediate Rank Mage is to continuously familiarize themselves with the power of rules until they can master it fluently.

The specialized inscriptions for branding are, in a sense, equivalent to the preparatory work when taking the leap from the beginner to the intermediate level.

The more interfaces, the better.

The more situations need to be handled when performing an intermediate-level Advancement Ceremony.

Lin Xiaowei said with concern, "At that time, there might even be Spiritual Energy Turbulence Vortex around you. In that situation, you are very likely to lose control, which is extremely dangerous!"

Li Yao fell into deep thought.

really,

My best friend's relaxed demeanor was just for show, hoping to reassure me.

While the Branding Specialization Inscription can greatly enhance a mage's strength, high returns often come with high risks.

Lin Xiaowei didn't disturb Li Yao at this moment; she could tell that Li Yao was very conflicted.

After all, judging from his previous performance, Li Yao is also an absolute genius, even more so than himself!

If this were in the Main World, he would definitely be a promising talent nurtured by the Magic Association, and he would certainly have a teacher protecting him during his advancement.

But because he was no longer in the Main World but on Earth, he was the only mage in the entire world...

Faced with reality, he seems to have no choice but to compromise.

This sense of resentment...

It must be huge! After a long silence,

Li Yao finally stopped thinking and frowned, saying, "Then wouldn't I have two fewer specializations than you?"

Lin Xiaowei comforted him, "Actually, you don't need to worry too much. The way of the mage is more about mastery than quantity. Many mages who specialize in only one thing often end up becoming legendary, and incredibly powerful!"

Li Yao waved his hand. "No, no, no, what I mean is, when you come back in the future, won't I be able to beat you?"

This won't do! A man has to be tough! How can he be weaker than a girl? Li Yao waved his hand dismissively. "Don't worry! I'll definitely be fine! After all, I'm a genius!"

Lin Xiaowei: "???"

You came up with this after half a day? I'm worried about your safety and you want to beat me up? You dog of a man, go to hell! (╯>д<)╯˙˙! Lin Xiaowei's face immediately fell. "See you later! I'm too busy with state affairs to deal with you!"

He hung up the phone immediately after saying that!

Li Yao only collapsed back onto the bed after Lin Xiaowei hung up the phone.

He was too exhausted to spout any more trash talk at that moment.

However, there's no need to worry too much about your best friend.

As the saying goes, "The benevolent are naturally protected!"

Even if he's not a lucky person, there's still Lin Xiaoxi around!

Then I'll have that guy give me a few big buffs!

That's definitely a sure thing! Thinking of this,

Li Yao, exhausted, fell into a deep sleep...

Li Yao's sleep was not very restful; it was a rather light sleep. Several times, Li Yao could even clearly sense the outside environment, but he was not actually awake.

His body was asleep, but the power of his soul emanated, reflecting the surrounding environment into his mind.

It will take Li Yao a long time to recover from his nap and have the energy to harmonize the disordered energy field within his soul.

He sat cross-legged in meditation and began to practice the meditation method.

More than an hour later, Li Yao opened his eyes again... He had roughly calmed down the chaotic energy within his body.

After thinking for a moment, he unleashed a classic Evocation spell – Frost Ray! He had originally intended to use Frost Death's Wrath to test the amplification effect of the Evocation specialization on Evocation spells, but Frost Death's Wrath incorporates the power of the Necromancer school, so the test might not be accurate enough. Therefore, he switched to Frost Ray!

With a slight thought, the frost rays gathered at his fingertips but were not released! After carefully sensing for a moment, Li Yao nodded: Just like when he completed the Transmutation Faction's specialization imprint before, the casting speed, power, and consumption had all changed by about 30%.

Faster casting speed

The spells are more powerful.

It consumes less energy to cast spells! And because he already has a foundation in the Transmutation Faction, his control over spells is more refined.

For example, the Frost Ray is a ray that shoots out from the hand, causing frost damage to the target. This is a fairly direct attack. However, with the enhancement of the Transmutation Faction specialization, Li Yao can keep the Frost Ray in a dormant state for a certain period of time, and can even change the shape of the ray, manipulating this ball of frost power within a certain range! Simply put, the Frost Ray used to be like a bullet, but now it has been equipped with an automatic tracking device!

Although the automatic tracking device's reaction and range are rather weak...

Li Yao raised his hand and blasted the Frost Ray into a glass of water on the table. Instantly, the water in the glass gradually turned into a block of frost.

If that hit someone...

It can cause frostbite in one hit!

Etc!

Li Yao suddenly remembered a skill he hadn't used in a long time—

This is the second update. Hope you enjoy reading!
