Moreover, the fireball just now had sucked up his two-hour accumulated Natural Magic Power in one go?
At this consumption rate, even if the crystal was full, he could only use the Small Fireball three times…
This was the most basic black magic, could the cost of black magic be this terrifying?
Mu You pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
He felt that he had not yet mastered the method of power control, because in his memory, those sorcerers fought smoothly, each secret technique readily available, able to be continuously thrown out like a barrage, and each one was just perfectly controlled.
Just like the fireball (Explosion) just now, there was no need for such power.
It was enough to ensure severe damage to the enemy, and the remaining magic power could be used for other things.
In this way, when he could control the power of black magic like those sorcerers, freely retracting and releasing it, then he would truly have started learning black magic.
“There’s so much more to practice…”
Mu You sighed, shook his head, and tried another ‘Age Regression’ spell.
After chanting, his skin changed back to the teen form when the watchman was ten years old.
The height dropped to one meter and five, the body shape was much thinner and paler, and the clothes became loose and sagging.
What surprised Mu You was that after switching age, he found that the original scars on his body had disappeared.
“Does the Age Regression spell also have recovery effects?”
Mu You thought for a moment, urgently pressed the pocket watch to return to the time before chanting, then cut a quite exaggerated wound on his arm with the Bone-Breaking Knife.
Watching the blood pouring out of his arm, he chanted again.
Magic Power surged, and the watchman’s form came to the shape of a sixteen-year-old.
There was not much change in height and figure, but the wound on his arm disappeared immediately without a trace.
“Indeed!”
Mu You was delighted.
It seemed that Age Regression was not just a spell for eternal youth, it was also a super powerful recovery magic!
No matter how severe the injury, even if it was on the verge of death, as long as this magic was used and switched to another age, all injuries would immediately recover!
Of course, these injuries did not disappear out of thin air, after the magic effect passed in 24 hours, the original injuries would reappear without missing any.
However, a full 24 hours of preparation time was enough to allow him to move to a completely safe place, and have healing medicine ready to treat the wounds, so it was not a big issue.
The only regret is that the cooldown time of this spell is a bit long, after using it once, the crystal storing the Age Regression would turn into a dim state, slowly restore the luster from the bottom to the top.
According to this recovery speed, Mu You estimated that this ability could only be used once every twenty or more hours.
Shaking his head, all thoughts crossed his mind in a few seconds.
Mu You pressed the pocket watch again, directly going back to the time before he cut himself with the knife.
After testing the two new spells, it was already four in the morning, and of course, the watchman’s task was already completed.
Mu You packed up his stuff and went home, still thinking about the grand scene of the fireball blowing up the building.
Although the scene was a bit horrifying, it was also exciting enough for him.
A Small Fireball Technique, could explode with such great power under the influence of black magic.
How terrifying would the battle scene be in the future when he had more powerful black magic?
Superior power was within his reach!
The night was deep, and Mu You was staying up late for the second night in a row, but he had no sleepiness at the moment.
He sat at his desk, his hands on top of the table, close together, and magic power continuously flowed from his fingertips, converging in the center, finally crystallizing into a square card emitting a faint glow.
The card was covered with numerous intricate patterns and runes, as if a circuit board of magic.
Mu You held this card in hand, carefully observing it.
If anyone could see the magic card crystal in his mind, they would find out that this card was identical to the six sides of the cube crystal.
This was a Magic Card!
The cube-shaped magic crystal only had six sides, and three of them were used to absorb natural magic power.
Only the remaining three sides could be used to load black magic.
The three sides were equivalent to the ‘Skill Bar’ in the game, each slot could only hold one skill at a time.
This meant that one magic crystal could load up to three black magic at a time.
If a fourth black magic was to be loaded, one of them had to be covered.
So, if many black magic was learned, how would one switch to use them?
The answer was the magic card in front of him!
This card, condensed by pure magic power, was completely modeled on the magic crystal and could be integrated into one side of the crystal at any time.
So, he only needed to make all the learned black magic into magic cards and during a battle, if he needed to use a certain black magic, he could directly integrate the corresponding card into the crystal.
As long as all cards had at least two backups, there was no need to worry about losing any black magic because it was covered by other cards.
At this point, the one in Mu You’s hand was a blank card with no black magic yet.
And the work he had to do now was to first engrave the two black magic in his mind and store it for backup, or it could also be used to trade for new magic cards with other sorcerers.
The door was tightly closed, mercury-like moonlight poured into the room through the window, streaming on the floor.
Mu You leaned over the desk, his left hand holding the pocket watch, his right index finger touching the card, his fingertips emitting a faint blue light that was barely noticeable.
Sweat beads constantly oozed from his forehead, but he didn’t have time to wipe them off.
His eyes were fixed on the flat Card on the table, his fingers moving minutely over it, as if he was performing a meticulous ‘welding work’.
Engraving dark magic was like drawing a few square meters of a complicated magic circuit on a palm-sized card, a very delicate task that required the utmost care and calmness.
Even the slightest trembling or energy control instability of the finger would directly discard the entire card!
This process was equivalent to transferring the risk of constructing black magic circuits inside the body to the card.
In this way, even if there were occasional mistakes, people would not lose control.
Only the card would be wasted, wasting some time and magic power.
However, because of this, making a Magic Card is a very time-consuming and consumptive task.
It may take dozens or hundreds of failures before one lucky attempt produces a successful card.
Therefore, even the simplest Magic Card creation often takes two to three days, and this was for those who are skilled.
It would be a blessing for a novice sorcerer to produce one in a week.
Of course, the above only refers to ordinary sorcerers.
For Mu You who possesses the Time Pocket Watch, the difficulty of this task is greatly simplified!
— all he needed to do was to turn back time immediately when a mistake occurred and start over, so as to avoid discarding the card.
Therefore, for him only, the success rate of Magic Card creation, which has an average success rate of only 5% for other sorcerers, was 100%!
