Casting spells

Chapter 1 Seventy Induction

energy!

Endless energy!

Maybe it's because after coming to this world, the energy stored in his body has been in a semi-dry state, so when the restriction was lifted, Zhang Cheng immediately felt like a huge sponge, crazily absorbing energy that was far more than several times before. .

Although these energies are far less pure than the arcane energies provided by well water, they are more active, especially the influence on various elements, far stronger than any known energy.

This also means that using this energy to release spells such as fire and frost will be more than twice as powerful, but spells like transformation, flash, arcane missiles, etc. will be greatly reduced in power, and even serious mistakes will occur. .

Feeling the abundant energy flowing in his veins, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, not to act rashly.

After all, breaking the shackles does not mean defeating the giant dragon that looks like a hill in front of you.

In addition, even if he could barely defeat it, Zhang Cheng did not intend to do so. Rather than risking his life to face a powerful enemy head-on, he preferred to use his brain and wisdom to achieve his goals.

"After the Valyrians defeated the Rhoynar, they obtained a kind of magical knowledge that can manipulate water from the other party. However, due to physical problems, they could not manipulate magic other than fire and blood. But the Dragon King Not reconciled, I summoned the most outstanding scholars and mages to study together. In the end, although I still couldn't control the water like the Rhoynar, I accidentally noticed the essence of energy. Since then, the Valyrians began to avoid me. Surveillance, conducting their own secret research, when I found out, their progress has far exceeded expectations..."

While reviewing the past history, Cronada talked about the development process of Valyrian magic civilization.

As a dragon who witnessed how the Valeas developed, rose, and finally swept the entire world, what it knew was far more credible than those legends and books, and it also revealed many mysteries.

For example, before the doomsday catastrophe came, why did the prophetess of the Targaryen family suddenly learn of the disaster, and why she firmly persuaded the entire family to migrate to the outpost of the western continent "Dragonstone Island".

It wasn't that she really had any prophecy ability, but that she was confused by the illusion created by the dragon. The two parties finally reached a deal, and the red meteorite was the core of the deal.

No wonder the Targaryen family never planned to return to this land. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to come back to receive the huge heritage of Valyrian civilization, but that they knew that there was an extremely powerful line under the island, and they were deeply concerned about the betrayal of the Valyrians. dragon.

"According to what you said, the magic of rebounding external force should come from the water mage of the Rhoyna people?" Zhang Cheng gently touched the stone tablet that was not too hot even though it was soaked in the magma.

Normally, even if the stele hadn't completely melted, it should have exceeded hundreds of degrees Celsius, but now it's only about sixty degrees Celsius at most.

Clonada lightly nodded her huge head: "Yes! At least I didn't impart similar knowledge to the Valeas. How, have you thought of a way to destroy it?"

Zhang Cheng rubbed his chin and pretended to think for a few minutes, then suddenly asked without thinking: "Have you heard of the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction?"

"Expand with heat and contract with cold? What do you mean?" The dragon obviously failed in physics, and his face was full of confusion and puzzlement.

"It's very simple! According to a hypothesis, everything in the world is composed of countless tiny particles that cannot be distinguished by the naked eye. When the temperature rises, the vibration amplitude of the small particles will increase, resulting in an increase in the volume of the object. When the temperature drops , the vibration amplitude of small particles will also be reduced, resulting in a smaller volume of the item.” Zhang Cheng explained the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction without any haste.

"Hmph! The world is made up of particles that cannot be distinguished by the naked eye? Is this another hypothesis put forward by that lunatic or idiot? Don't you believe it?" Clonada mercilessly sneered and satirized.

"Hehe, maybe, but it is true that when the temperature rises, the volume of the object will increase, and it is also true that the volume will decrease when the temperature drops." Zhang Cheng did not try to argue.

He didn't want to waste time giving a popular science lesson to a giant dragon that was destined to be his enemy.

"Is there any necessary connection with the destruction of the stele?" Cronada raised her front paw and fiddled with the magma around her.

"Of course! Just imagine, if I completely freeze this stele first, and then you heat it with scorching dragon flames, what will happen?" After finishing speaking, Zhang Cheng casually pulled out a handful of meat-cutting tools Dagger, the right hand releases icy cold air.

In the blink of an eye, the dagger was frozen from the inside out.

Immediately afterwards, he inserted the front part of the dagger into the magma, and then pulled it out to freeze.

After repeated several times, the steel material finally could no longer withstand the repeated ravages, and several pieces of the city were shattered with a snap.

Holding up half of the dagger, Zhang Cheng explained with a smile: "Did you see that? Rapid heating and sudden cooling are fatal to any solid substance.

This is true for steel which is a good conductor of heat, let alone dragon crystal which is not a good conductor.

Do you know where the endless yellow sand in the desert comes from?

It’s not that there was sand at the beginning, but that there was a lack of plants in the desert to block the sun, and a large number of stones were continuously exposed to the sun every day, which caused the surface temperature to rise rapidly, the volume began to expand, and the heat was slowly transferred to the inside.

Once at night, the ambient temperature drops rapidly, and the outside of the stone begins to shrink, but the inside remains hot and expands outward.

Shrinking and expanding, the internal structure of the stone will soon be destroyed.

Maybe you can't see anything for a day or two, but in a few months or even years or decades, the stone will slowly break and become smaller and smaller, and the result is the gravel we see. "

Seeing this scene, Clonada's eyes lit up immediately, and she couldn't wait to urge: "Then what are you waiting for? Quickly freeze this damn stele! I will smash it immediately!"

"Don't worry, I still have a small technical problem that has not been solved. You must know that the rapid freezing of such a huge stone tablet is far beyond my ability. I need to have a steady supply of energy, otherwise I have not yet covered The entire surface, and I'll use up all my strength."

At this moment, Zhang Cheng revealed his fox tail.

Undoubtedly, he has only one target, that red meteorite emitting intense radiant energy.

When the meteorite is in his hand, he will flee immediately. As for releasing the dragon, it has not been considered from the beginning to the end.

Only an idiot would want to unleash a terrifying monster capable of breaking the balance of the world...

Chapter 171 Betrayal

"You want it?" Clonada gently fiddled with the red crystal meteorite, her eyes full of vigilance and scrutiny.

Obviously, for it, this meteorite not only means strength, but also means whether it can survive for a long time.

As a magical creature of such a huge size, it needs to absorb a huge amount of energy every day to maintain its basic needs.

Perhaps nothing can be seen in the few decades that the comet has just passed, but once the energy permeating the air begins to become thinner, certain special organs will begin to fail rapidly, age, and eventually lead to death.

To a certain extent, the radiation energy emitted by meteorites all the time is equivalent to a life support system, so even a fool would not easily hand it over to others.

Undoubtedly, Zhang Cheng knew very well that he had touched the bottom line of the other party, and spread his hands deliberately pretending to be indifferent: "Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to get it, I just borrow it. Don't you think that in this area full of Where the magma is, do I have the ability to pose a threat to you? In addition, it is you, not me, who desire to break the seal and regain freedom, so the right to choose is also in your hands."

Clonada narrowed her eyes, as if she was considering the danger of this matter. After a full minute, the desire for freedom finally overcame everything.

It carefully held the crystal-clear meteorite with its claws, placed it in front of Zhang Cheng, and threatened in a low voice: "Humans, don't try to play tricks, or I guarantee you will taste something more terrible than death .”

"Thank you for your trust. Don't worry, I haven't lived enough, and I won't take the initiative to seek death." Zhang Cheng bent down and bowed, and picked up the meteorite the size of an adult's head.

As soon as he got it, he immediately realized why such a small thing could release the power to destroy everything in an instant.

The reason is very simple. The energy contained in this small piece of crystal is equivalent to [-] times the sum of the energy sprinkled by the crimson comet every time it passes through the world of A Song of Ice and Fire.

What's more, it is still so highly compressed that just holding it in the hand can provide countless benefits to the holder.

For example, slowly transforming oneself so that it has a better magical physique, and another example is continuously replenishing energy consumption and so on.

In short, as the Dragon King of Valyria expected, whoever can integrate this meteorite with himself can become a god walking in the world, at least in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, nothing can match him. the balance.

As for the White Walkers who are regarded as the "number one enemy" in the plot, even the ancestors and the children of the forest can defeat them, and it is also easy to replace them with the Valyrian civilization in its heyday. They are not qualified to stand in the "god" before.

"Human! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and start!" Clonada immediately urged after realizing that Zhang Cheng hadn't moved for a long time.

For some reason, after the meteorite left his control, there was always an inexplicable uneasiness in its heart, as if something bad would happen next.
