Advance Login: Era of Magic - Chapter 30

Spirit, this attribute did not increase mana.

This attribute was mainly targeted at the strength of the magic.

If a mage’s spirit was high, then the strength of the magic he cast would be high.

For example, Caruso and Village Chief Cass had both used level 1 fireball, but Caruso’s fireball was far larger than the other’s and the damage was also greater than the other’s.

This was the benefit of having a strong mind.

Of course, the benefit added to the mind would also increase a certain amount of mana, but the increase in mana was not very high.

After adding points, Caruso looked at his experience points and could not help but fall into deep thought.

He had already become a 10-star apprentice mage, but if he wanted to break through to the mage realm…

He would need a total of 100,000 EXP.

When he saw this number, Caruso wanted to quit the game immediately.

It wasn’t that 100,000 experience points were hard to obtain.

However, breaking through to the mage realm required 100,000 experience points. What about breaking through to the magus realm? What about breaking through to the archmagus realm?

These higher realms required tens of millions of experience points, right?

Fortunately, he had asked the system the moment he finished reading.

The system’s answer to his questions was simple.

Every major realm breakthrough required a huge amount of experience points.

However, when he was in a minor realm, the experience points required would be much less.

For example, he needed 100,000 experience points to break through.

Once he broke through, he only needed 10,000 experience points to reach 2-star mage.

When he reached the next major realm, the number of experience points he needed would slowly increase.

Although Caruso wanted to complain about this setting, he eventually gave in.

After all, a major realm was something that many people had been stuck at for their entire lives.

As for himself, he only needed to kill monsters and complete quests to break through. Comparing himself to others, he was still very much a swindler.

…

After dealing with these, Caruso’s next task was to use the special magic experience points.

The special magic experience points were the accumulated experience points when he absorbed the dark element particles.

After the incident with Bard, he had absorbed more than 100,000 dark element particles in the Dark Forest.

That was more than 100,000 special magic experience points.

Facing so many experience points, Caruso turned his attention to dark magic.

“Ding-dong! Do you want to upgrade Dark Arrow?”

“Yes!”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading the dark arrow to a Tier 1 intermediate spell! Deducting 2,000 experience points.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading the dark arrow to a Tier 1 advanced spell! Deducting 5,000 experience points.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading dark arrow to Tier 1 super-advanced spell! Deducting 10,000 experience points.”

“Ding-dong! Do you wish to upgrade dark spell [Curse]?”

“Yes!”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading Curse to Tier 1 intermediate spell! Deducting 2,000 experience points.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading Curse to Tier 1 advanced spell, deducting 5,000 experience points.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations on upgrading Curse to a Tier 1 super-advanced spell! 10,000 experience points deducted.”

…

Ten minutes later.

The three dark spells that Caruso had mastered had all been upgraded to the level of a super-advanced spell.

The three skills had cost him a total of 51,000 EXP, leaving him with 93,000 EXP.

The remaining EXP was not enough to upgrade the dark contract, so Caruso could only put this idea aside for the time being.

After he was done with these matters, Caruso’s strength increased by three times in just half an hour.

If Caruso could only face some tier 1 demonic beasts before, then…

But now, even if a tier 2 intermediate demonic beast appeared, Caruso could still completely crush the other party.

And this was his biggest change.

Whether it was his attributes or his magic skills, they had all received a super-powerful change.

Therefore, Caruso no longer had any fear. He directly walked past Holy Orchid City, not caring about whether there would be some so-called powerful magic beasts around him. He even hoped that there would be a large number of magic beasts. In that case… he would be able to quickly break through to become a mage.

One had to know that he had another innate skill that would only be awakened after he reached the mage realm.

…

Yass Empire, outside Holy Orchid City.

When Caruso walked out of the main road in the forest, he quickly saw a city that looked like the Central European cities of the 15th and 16th centuries not far away.

Along the way, there were many people who were rushing to the city from the surrounding towns.

Most of these people were farmers who were carrying a few baskets full of fresh fruits and vegetables, ready to be transported to Holy Orchid City to sell them.

When they walked past the city gate, they saw a group of armored guards interrogating them.

The main thing they did was to check their personal information.

At first, when Caruso queued up to enter, these low-level guards did not give him any good looks.

It was not until he took out the recommendation letter from Village Chief Cass and waited for the guards to finish reading the words on it that the attitude of these guards immediately changed greatly, one of them called out amicably, “Respected Mage, Sir, you shouldn’t have taken this road. There is a road here that doesn’t need to be lined up for mages and nobles like you.”

After hearing this, Caruso smiled tactfully, then he expressed his respect and how he followed his teacher to learn magic. He had never come to Holy Orchid City before.

After saying that, the guards became even more respectful.

After all, in their eyes, a mage was a noble profession.

And the other party had been learning magic with his teacher for so long. It proved that the other party had been learning magic since he was young.

Although his teacher was only a 6-star mage, he was already an extraordinary figure in Holy Orchid City.

Even an ordinary noble would have to stop and say hello to a 6-star magician.

Therefore, in the eyes of the guards, Cass was already a great figure.
