DND is a world view, and there are many worlds under a similar world view.
The red-robed wizard is a member of the Purcell Red-robed Wizard Society, which is the world of Faerûn.
The magic masters in this world are restricted by something called spell slots.
It can't be said to be a restriction, because the magic network and spell slots actually reduce the difficulty of learning and casting spells, and are regarded as tools.
And those powerful legendary mages have many ways to bypass the restrictions of spell slots, and there are super-standard existences such as legendary spells, which are no weaker than mages in other worlds. It's even better!
Because many dharma masters in that world have successfully become gods!
According to their standards, the vast majority of wizards in the magical world are warlocks.
Only those who have mastered all the information and details of a spell through study and research are mages.
Those who rely on instinct and genetic blood are warlocks.
Wizards are born with magical blood, so there is no doubt that warlocks are.
It's just that many famous wizards in the magic world are also researchers, such as Dumbledore, so they can be regarded as part-time practitioners of magic and magic.
In those DND worlds, the upper limit of mages depends on intelligence, and the upper limit of warlocks depends on bloodline.
For example, among the great arcanists of Netheril, the lowest IQ is 17, and they are considered to have very poor qualifications.
The intelligence of those famous great arcanists is above 20, what about 22~24.
Using today's Muggle intelligence tests, a normal person's IQ is 90-110 points.
If it is 120-140 points, it can be called a smart person. If it is above 140 points, it is a genius. The higher the score, the smarter it is. The full score is 200 points.
The IQs of the Grand Arcanists are beyond the test range and may reach 220-240!
Ted feels that after adding the buff, his IQ test should be between 150-180.
Without buffs, with my own intelligence, I can only learn nine-level spells at most three levels.
The 3rd level magic master has the iconic invisibility and fireball skills. It is considered an entry-level magician with no future.
As for before the third ring, it can only be regarded as a fad, not worth mentioning.
Of course, Ted can increase his intelligence by upgrading, and his future will be bright~
Ted briefly went through the magic recorded in the magic book and found that it turned out to be an unexpected big gain!
Although the red-robed wizard Penny is only a third-level mage, he has collected and studied surprisingly many spells, ranging from level 0 to level 3, more than sixty kinds of spells!
Oh my god, is this guy so rich?
You know, learning magic in Faerûn is extremely expensive. Even if you learn from a teacher, you even have to be paid. Or just buy the scrolls and study them yourself, which is also very expensive.
Moreover, the spell system in that world is huge, and there are as many spells as stars. It doesn’t mean that you can learn whatever you want. You have to be able to access this spell.
Some mages who live in remote areas may know less than twenty spells in their lifetime!
According to Ted's understanding of the Red Robe Wizards, it was an organization known for its evil and oppression.
Master Fa is the father of that country!
All activities were carried out with Master Fa as the center, and magic was even used to modify the weather and promote agricultural harvests.
This organization's oppression of low-level mages is also very terrible. It emphasizes mass training and then the survival of the fittest, allowing apprentices to compete viciously with each other. Those who die will die, and those who live are elites.
They even developed a magic item manufacturing assembly line~
So this country is famous for exporting food and magic items.
In this case, the three-ring mage can only be said to have touched the threshold of the middle level of the organization. But he can actually collect so many spells, awesome!
Ted even suspected that this guy could be the mistress of a high-ranking mage, right? !
Spells learned through the back door!
This guy is not even a vegetarian, and has dabbled in the spells of various factions. Prophecy, transformation, conjuration, evocation... Doesn't the red-robed wizard specialize in a certain department?
One of the three-ring spells, Ted has never even heard of, is called "Animal Cuteness"!
Animal Cuteness: Transform a single animal or magical beast into a younger and cuter version of itself in a short period of time.
What kind of strange spell is this? !
From this complex spell that involves all aspects, it can be seen that Master Fa is really strong.
A well-prepared Master is invincible.
Because endless spells can always give you a suitable solution.
Under the restrictions of spell slots, how to prepare your own spells to deal with possible situations is the key to testing the magic master.
That guy who has all his spell slots filled with fireball spells will definitely not survive more than three chapters.
Ted was a little excited!
This is 400 experience in exchange for a lot of novel magic!
Although it is certainly not simple to convert Faerun continent's spell slot model into the spell casting method of this world, it is still a huge wealth.
…
In the History of Magic class, Ted was wandering around - there were as many as 10 level 0 spells in the spellbook.
Ted had trouble making a choice for a while. Where to start?
Hermione hit him with her elbow, "What's the matter with you? You've been so distracted that you can't even take notes?"
Ted cleared his throat: "I thought of something magical and got distracted. I got distracted."
Hermione glanced at Ted in confusion. This guy was like this at the beginning of last month... No, it was like this at the beginning of last month!
Hermione: Something happens at the beginning of every month. What's going on with you?
Hermione was still wrestling with this issue until breakfast the next day.
The boys who had just finished running and came back from changing clothes were all joking around with playful faces.
Neville said very quietly: "I always feel that Hermione's pursed lips and stern face give people a very familiar feeling."
Ron nodded heavily, "Neville, you are right, because Hermione is known as Little Mag!"
Jerry continued on the side: "You're talking nonsense! It's Professor McGonagall, also known as Hermione!"
Hermione was immediately angry, with her hands on her hips and her eyes blazing!
"You three!"
Neville: Nothing happens without me!
At this time, the owl that delivered the message appeared on time, and there was a messy sound of flapping wings above the head.
If you are unlucky, some bird feathers will fall down.
Ted suddenly stretched out his wand, and in an instant he cast a floating spell: "Yingardim Leviosa~"
He was such a slippery talker, and he chanted the curse so fast that Ron didn't even hear it clearly.
Then he saw his old owl floating a foot above the soup pot in front of him.
Their owl, Old Errol, has been dedicated to the family for more than twenty years. He has been delivering letters to the Weasley family since Bill, the eldest son, was not even born.
Now I am really overwhelmed.
If it hadn't been for Ted, he would have dove into the steaming cream of corn soup.
Tiger: I don’t want to drink a bowl of Scotch Chicken Soup.
Hermione took the old owl aside, fed it some pumpkin juice to regain its strength, and complained: "Ron, your family should retire it. I'm really worried that if the weather is bad that day, you will never see it again. ”
Ron rolled his eyes: That's easy to say, our family must have that kind of money!
The Weasley family has many children, and Mrs. Weasley is a full-time housewife. The only income for the family is Mr. Weasley. The financial pressure is not small, and we have never been well-off.
Ron unwrapped the letter and read it, then shrugged.
"It looks like I'll have to stay at school during the Christmas break. Mom and dad are going to Egypt to visit Bill during Christmas, and George and I will have to stay at school."
Although there are still about twenty days until Christmas, the Weasleys have already arranged their trip.
Christmas? !
The friends immediately started a discussion about the Christmas holidays.
Needless to say, Ted had nowhere to go. Definitely stay in school.
The same goes for Jerry. If he stays in school, he can relieve his mother's burden.
Ron also has to stay in school.
Hermione, Harry and Neville were left to go home for the holidays.
In the West, Christmas is as grand a festival as our Spring Festival, and it should be celebrated with family as much as possible.
Moreover, this is the first year that they live away from home and live on campus, so their family must miss them very much.
…
On the way to separate classes after breakfast, Hermione carefully suggested to Ted: "Actually, you can come to my house to spend Christmas. You know, my dad likes you very much. I have always said that I would find an opportunity to thank you!"
She also had to pretend to be nonchalant, fearing that it would hurt Ted's pride.
"Thank you, thank you Hermione. I appreciate your kindness, but this year I want to spend Christmas at school to see how Christmas is different in the wizarding world. Moreover, Ron and Jerry are accompanying me! Don't worry about me. Thank you Hermione..."
"Okay! Then remember to write to me more often."
"Christmas break is only three weeks away!"
"Ah! That's right!"
