Herag now has a significantly enhanced perspective and knowledge compared to his time in the Barren Land.
He spends his free time absorbing, understanding, and learning from the books and materials in the library of Silver Moon City.
Now, when he revisits these Spell Model Books, he has a different feeling and a deeper understanding of the magic principles.
Much of the knowledge is actually interconnected; as long as one has a sufficiently deep understanding of the principles, mastering the knowledge naturally becomes faster.
As time ticks by, Herag remains focused in his study, attentively reading the Spell Model Books while waiting for Shenlan to construct the spell model.
During this process, Reese brought in some fruit and brewed a pot of hot coffee, placing it to the side without further interrupting Herag.
She has also been diligently learning magic potion knowledge lately, making significant progress, and will likely soon be able to take the exam for a Level 1 Alchemist.
Over four hours later.
"The spell models for Life Bud, Immovable Rock, Water Skin, and Dark Gold Armor have been constructed."
Herag closed the Spell Model Book in his hands, rubbing his temples.
Constructing four Level 1 spell models at once left him with a slight sense of mental fatigue.
Herag picked up the coffee at his side, taking a sip to refresh himself.
In his mind, the models for the four Level 1 spells were already constructed.
Herag first turned his attention to the Life Bud spell, a Plant Element spell.
He prepared to try this spell, channeling magic power into the spell model.
Soon, a mound of earth appeared on the floor before Herag.
A green stem emerged from the mound, with a bud at the top of the stem.
Once the stem fully extended from the soil, it was a full two meters high.
Simultaneously, the bud rapidly expanded, forming a large sack resembling a sleeping bag, spacious enough to accommodate an adult to lie down inside.
The bud remained open, awaiting someone to lay inside.
Herag touched it and found it filled with sticky mucous.
This mucous has an excellent effect on healing injuries.
The spell reminded Herag of the time in the Moonlight Forest when he was severely injured by Malcolm.
In that perilous situation, Batty, a Level 1 Wizard, saved him using a similar method.
Herag felt that the spell Batty used back then was probably similar to Life Bud, as it looked quite alike.
With a wave of his hand, Herag made the bud retract instantly, disappearing.
However, the mound on the floor remained, not disappearing, mysteriously brought from somewhere else.
Herag touched it to confirm it was indeed soil, and the floor was intact, not damaged.
In his view, this should be strictly classified as a Plant and Summoning spell.
Only summoning spells would exhibit such phenomena.
Herag then proceeded to try another spell, Immovable Rock.
When he channeled magic power into its spell model, particles of earth element energy began to gather around his body, with a yellowish hue glowing across all his limbs.
The entire person looked much yellower, a spell likely unappealing to ladies who cherish beauty.
But Herag didn't care, as becoming stronger was all that mattered.
"Shenlan, assess the enhancement brought by Immovable Rock," Herag wanted to see the impact of the spell.
"Estimating now..."
"Immovable Rock provides approximately: Power +3.1, Agility +1.1, Constitution +6.6."
Herag nodded; the effect was satisfactory, akin to that of the Giant Body.
After testing Immovable Rock, he then moved on to Water Skin.
This was a rather special spell, as Herag hadn't previously studied damage reduction spells.
Looking down at his arm, he saw a transparent liquid covering all over his body, though he himself felt nothing, just a cool sensation.
If it were summer, this spell would be an ideal tool for beating the heat.
Herag moved his body a bit, the spell causing no hindrance to his movements, much like wearing a snug suit with no noticeable discomfort.
The specific damage reduction effect was hard to test, as he couldn't very well cut himself.
If the force wasn't strong enough, there would be no test effect; too strong, and what if he killed himself?
Herag decided not to test it further, as he planned to integrate these beneficial spells into a single spell.
He then began to test the last spell, Dark Gold Armor.
With a thought, Herag directed his magic power into the spell model of Dark Gold Armor.
Soon, metallic particles began to congregate on his surface, forming into dark golden metal.
The process was extremely quick, and with just a blink, Herag was already clad in a layer of dark golden armor.
This dark golden armor was similar to Dark Armor, offering full-body coverage with no weak spots.
The surface of the Dark Armor was also shrouded with black mist, looking grim and inauspicious.
But Dark Gold Armor appeared as solid armor, with a striking metallic luster.
At a glance, the armor looked quite beautiful, luxurious.
Herag was very pleased with the armor, although its functionality overlapped with Dark Armor.
The next step would be integrating these beneficial spells into a single one.
"Shenlan, calculate whether it's possible to integrate Blood Python's Fury, Indomitable Will, Mountain Elf's Blessing... Water Skin, and Dark Gold Armor into a single spell, akin to Absolute Defense."
Herag wasn't sure if integrating these spells into one was feasible, leaving it up to Shenlan to attempt.
"Analyzing and calculating..."
This time, Shenlan spent a little longer analyzing and calculating, possibly due to the number of spells involved, each differing in principle.
Before coming to the Land of Dawn, Herag would have had little confidence in Shenlan completing this task.
But after his arrival at the Land of Dawn, Shenlan had logged all the books from the first three levels of Silver Moon City's library, now possessing a colossal amount of data.
With such a strong data foundation, Shenlan might just succeed.
About half an hour later.
"Through analysis and calculation, a central-type spell model can be constructed, integrating these spell models into a single spell."
Thinking it through, Herag said, "Shenlan, commence the derivation of this spell model."
"Task documented, projected time of 110 hours, estimated magic power consumption 126%."
Herag remembered that deriving Absolute Defense took seventy-two hours, already a lengthy task.
Now, deriving this spell model requiring 110 hours speaks to its complexity.
