At dinner time, the Baruch family of three and their butler Shiri had dinner together. Little Worton was also lively on the table, and the living room was filled with laughter. After dinner, when the old butler Shiri took Worton to sleep, Lin Lei began to talk to his father Hogu.
"By the way, Father, which is more powerful, a magician or a warrior?" Lin Lei asked.
Hog looked at Lin Lei with a glance, smiled slightly, and shook his head: "Lin Lei, mages and warriors have their own strengths. In terms of strength, mages and warriors of the same level should be slightly stronger than mages. The most important thing is... the status of mages is extremely high, one level higher than that of warriors. For example, the eighth-level dual-system mage from just now, in terms of status, even a ninth-level warrior would likely be slightly weaker than him."
"Strength is slightly better than before, why is the status so different?" Lin Lei was puzzled.
Hog laughed and said, "Before that, you need to understand the classification of magicians. Magicians are divided into nine levels. The first and second levels are primary magicians, the third and fourth levels are intermediate magicians, and the fifth and sixth levels are advanced magicians. As for the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels, these three levels are extremely terrifying. Of course, above the ninth level magician, there is also the Sacred Domain Magician!"
"The status of wizards is high because their destructive power is extremely great." Hogwarts picked up a cup of juice and said lightly after taking a sip.
"Destructive power?" Lin Lei looked at his father.
Hog put down his cup, nodded and said: "A warrior, even a dragon blood warrior, can only kill nearly a hundred enemies with one sword. Once facing an army of millions, the most he can do is to kill the commander. But if a commander dies, the enemy can replace him with a new one. Whats the use of having a commander left when tens of thousands of soldiers are gone? As for a country, a Saint Domain magician is more terrifying than an entire army."
Lin Lei suddenly understood.
"Not to mention the Sanctuary Mages, even 8th and 9th level mages can unleash astonishing power in war. Therefore, the status of mages is extremely high." Hogg said with a calm smile.
Lin Lei nodded slightly.
On the Yulan Continent with war as its theme, its no wonder that mages held such a high status.
"Oh, right, Father, I remember reading in a book that mages are physically weaker compared to warriors. But just now, I saw that mage jump down from the back of the swift dragon with ease... is his body really weak?" Lin Lei asked.
Hog replied, "Lets put this question aside for now, Lin Lei. You should know that on the Yulan continent, ordinary people have a lifespan of around 120 to 130 years. Powerful mages and warriors generally live longer, typically up to 200 or 300 years, and sometimes even 400 years. The maximum human lifespan is 500 years. Only those who reach the legendary Sacred Realm can possess an extremely long, almost infinite life."
Lin Lei nodded.
He had seen this in books before.
"But Lin Lei, you know that powerful magicians and warriors, why their lifespan will be long?" asked Hog tightly.
Lin Lei was taken aback.
A formidable magician and warrior, with a lifespan of three to four hundred years, Lin Lei took this for granted and didnt think about the reason at all.
Hog saw Lin Leis expression and couldnt help but laugh: "Lin Lei, first of all, I want to tell you that in the world there are elements such as fire attribute, water attribute, wind attribute, earth attribute, lightning attribute, light attribute, dark attribute, etc. Whether it is a magician or a warrior, they all absorb the elements from the world to cultivate themselves. This also leads to the fact that whether it is magic or internal energy, they all contain different attributes. If you observe carefully, you can discover that the four male warriors of the mercenary group earlier, the red-haired strong mans internal energy was fire attribute internal energy. The other three had wind attribute internal energy and water attribute internal energy... Internal energy has different attributes, magic also has different attributes!"
Lin Lei realized for the first time from birth until now that... mages and warriors actually absorb the same elements of heaven and earth.
"Powerful magicians and warriors live longer because when they absorb elements from the heavens and earth into their bodies, refine them into magical power, those elements flow through their bodies and are naturally absorbed by their internal organs, muscles, and bones. This makes the magicians physique better and better, and a good physique means a longer lifespan. The same principle applies to warriors who cultivate their inner energy - they absorb elements from the heavens and earth, refine them into inner energy within their bodies, which also improves their physique. The more powerful the warrior, the better their physique, and naturally, the longer their lifespan."
Lin Lei suddenly realized.
According to Father, the body of a magician is also improved by the elements of heaven and earth, and the body is very good.
"Father, but why do people say that magicians have weak bodies?" Lin Lei asked in puzzlement.
Hog shook his head and said, "Cant you understand? When we say that a magicians body is weak, it doesnt mean hes really weak. It means that compared to a warrior of the same level, his body becomes a weak point. For example, an eighth-level magician, although his body hasnt been trained, can still keep up with a second or third-level warrior. But compared to an eighth-level warrior, the eighth-level magicians body is at a disadvantage."
Lin Lei slapped his forehead and smiled awkwardly.
Such a simple question, yet I couldnt figure it out, Ive really become numb in my thinking.
However, although mages are not good at close combat, they also have ways to deal with it. One is to cast a magic shield, such as "Earth Shield", "Ice Shield", "Wind Shield", "Light Shield" and so on... First, use defensive magic to resist, then use attack magic to attack!
"But a powerful magician has another way, tame the Magic Beast!"
Lin Leis eyes lit up when he heard this.
Lin Lei also wanted to tame a magical beast, such as taming a powerful Velociraptor.
"A powerful familiar is enough to protect the magician, making it impossible for the enemy to get close to him. This way, the magician can cast a deadly spell and kill his opponent directly." Hog said with a smile.
Lin Lei immediately asked anxiously: "Father, how can we subdue a magical beast?"
Hog saw Lin Leis expression and couldnt help but smile, saying: "To subdue a magical beast, there are two conditions. The first is to make the magical beast willingly submit to you, and the second is to set up a soul contract magic array to make the magical beast your own servant."
"The first condition is difficult, to make the beast surrender willingly, probably only by defeating it head-on will make it willing. For example, if you want to subdue a swift dragon, you must defeat the swift dragon first." His fathers words left Lin Lei speechless.
Can I conquer Velociraptor? But do I have the strength to defeat Velociraptor?
"The second condition is to set up the Soul Contract magic array, this magic array is very troublesome, at least you need to be a seventh-level magician to have enough strength to set it up." Hog said solemnly.
Lin Lei was taken aback: "Father, according to what you just said... isnt it only seventh-level magicians or higher who can tame magical beasts?"
"Not necessarily. If you have enough money, you can buy a Soul Contract scroll and just tear it up to directly form a Soul Contract Magic Array. Its just that the Soul Contract scrolls are very expensive." Hogg sneered at himself.
"How much?" Lin Lei asked again.
"It was a million gold coins for one scroll, and its still unaffordable." Hawkes words could only make Lin Lei smile wryly.
The hardest part of taming a magical beast is defeating it.
Of course, you can subdue the weak and small magical beasts, but whats the use of subduing the weak and small magical beasts? Do you have enough ability to defeat the powerful magical beasts? If you use cunning and trickery, how can you make the magical beast willing to surrender?
Its not easy to surrender willingly.
However, the seemingly secondary second condition is to set up a soul contract magic array. This condition also determines that those who can tame magical beasts are either powerful magicians or wealthy people. Spending 10,000 gold coins to buy a Soul Contract magic scroll is something only nobles can afford, and without sufficient wealth, one wouldnt dare be so extravagant.
Lin Leis lips were pursed and his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"If I really want to subdue the demon beast, with our familys economic situation, I can only become a seventh-level magician and then go down the path of subduing the demon beast." Lin Lei thought secretly in his heart, and he himself was also clear that this road is very difficult.
The first checkpoint on this road is whether you have the talent to become a magician!
After all, it was just a one in ten thousand chance of hope, and if there wasnt even any innate talent, then becoming a magician would be fundamentally impossible.
