"That's a good question. Even humans can't explain the existence of the dead. I've done some research on this. Generally speaking, necromancy is not suitable for the living, so living creatures won't cast it. As for why dead things exist, in my opinion, it's because of their mental strength. There are many creatures whose bodies are destroyed, but whose powerful spirits are still alive. Under certain circumstances, they don't dissipate and continue to exist in this special form. Everything has yin and yang, and so does life and death. Dead creatures will inevitably have hatred for the living, which is why we can't get along, so the undead shouldn't be considered a kind of magic."
"Teacher, you just said that magic elements are just a rigid existence, but I think they are conscious. To be more precise, it should be a subconscious. They may not have as complex thinking as us, but they can make the most basic judgments, such as enemy, friend, or neutral."
Caesar continued to ask. This question has been bothering him for a long time. His use of elementary magic is superb, otherwise he would not have been able to control the temperature of the barbecue so well. However, he can only do this much. There are only so many magic elements willing to cooperate with him each time, which is really not nice of him.
After saying this, all the classmates looked at Caesar as if he was an idiot. Everyone here can sense the element of magic. It is like the existence of air. We can use it, but it does not have consciousness. What Caesar said is completely ridiculous, just like someone saying that air is conscious.
People always believe what they feel, but they don't know that their abilities are different and the truth they see is also limited.
"Haha, classmate, everyone is different. Maybe you have invested a lot of feelings in this illusion. If necessary, we can have a good talk after class. Let's continue with the content of this lesson. We sea people are best at water magic. Not only is it a talent, but the ocean is also the place with the richest water elements. I think we can learn about other magics, but there is no need to force ourselves to learn. It is better to be specialized than to be knowledgeable. However, our water magic is not invincible. It is time to improve it!"
"Teacher, can magic be improved? I think magic is just an instinct!"
Most people also had the same expression. For the water tribe, they seldom thought about the changes in magic. Each race had its own water magic that they were good at. Even if they wanted to make progress, they would spend their time on magic control and magic power to make the lethality as large as possible. They would also learn the attack methods and weaknesses of the magic of each race so as to better protect themselves in battle.
However, it was this characteristic that caused the Sea Clan to suffer a great loss in the Shenyue War, because their opponents were humans, who were the most adept at learning in the Mayan world. They soon discovered that the Sea Clan's attack methods were almost unchanged, especially the combination of magic. This caused humans to launch three consecutive horrific battles in the subsequent counterattacks, which almost wiped out the Sea Clan Marines.
"Yes, just like I said, humans are our opponents, but just because they are our opponents doesn't mean we should look down on them or ignore some things worth learning. With the talents of our sea people, as long as we master some techniques, humans will be vulnerable. In addition to classifying magic, they also differentiate each type of magic into different levels. Each level of magic has different attack methods. Such detailed attacks can indeed highlight the effect of the battle. Some of them are suitable for us, and some are not."
"Wait a minute, teacher, you mean we are going to learn human water magic?"
This made the students who have always been proud of being from the water race a little confused. Although they understood, they still believed that the sea race had an absolute advantage. Wouldn't it be enough to just make the power greater? Why go through so much trouble and be so long-winded, which would also lower their own status.
"Wrong, we are not learning water magic from humans, but we are learning the magic that suits our sea race. We need to develop and improve it, and create magic that is superior to humans and more suitable for our sea race. Let those humans who are so proud that they think they are the first race of Maya know the nobility of our sea race. You know, thousands of years ago, these humans were food and slaves of all races in the continent and the ocean. They were vulnerable, but now!"
The teacher with twisted glasses was a little emotional and seemed to be a radical. Even the sea people had to admit that humans were now powerful. While the sea people were attacking human merchant ships, humans were also hunting the sea people and even capturing royal families. Many sea people had witnessed the horror of human merchants, especially after the defeat in the Shenyue War. If humans were not accustomed to splitting up after victory, who knows what the situation would be like now.
"Teacher, we now understand a little bit. In this day and age, strength is everything. Teacher, can you prove what is so great about human magic?"
Caesar stood up and said, obviously everyone looked at this Mahua teacher differently. Although his dress was a bit rustic, his views were not at all, and he was more avant-garde than many teachers. Many teachers in Reef Academy were very disdainful of humans, but the students knew in their hearts that if humans were really that bad, why did the sea clan suffer a crushing defeat back then? Many sea clan compatriots fell on land and never came back, and so far all clans are still recovering.
Pride is always a false and thin disguise.
"Student, what is your name?"
"Caesar."
Suddenly, the classroom was filled with discussions like a tide. No one knew when Caesar had become a celebrity. Some said that this guy didn't have any real ability, but was just lucky enough to encounter some big events. Others said that this guy was unfathomable, and even human dragon knights couldn't beat him. Anyway, rumors were flying everywhere. No one expected that the rumored Caesar should be a warrior, but this was a magic academy!
...Is this guy extremely road-blind?
Teacher Mahua also looked at Caesar seriously. This student was really amazing. The principal personally held a meeting to grant him a series of privileges, and the teachers had to sign a series of unequal treaties under the principal's power. It was obvious that the principal had regarded Caesar as an absolute trump card. He did not even get angry when his favorite snow algae was destroyed. It seemed that he was preparing to become famous in this year's college exchange competition, and even participate in the Sea King Festival!
However, she got the news that he was a soldier, so how could he appear in her classroom? Of course, according to the principal's order, he could be used as a toilet, let alone attending classes.
"Very good, Caesar-san, ... you know magic, right? Use your best magic to attack me."
"Yes, teacher."
Without any spell, two small water balls emerged from Caesar's hands and floated in the air, which stunned all the students who were staring with wide eyes and full of expectation.
"Ahem, Caesar-san, don't worry about hurting the teacher. You can switch to a higher level one."
If it were an ordinary student, Yamira would definitely say that you should attack with all your strength, but if it were Caesar, thinking about the previous rumors, he would use the word "good at"... But the little water ball... is this also considered good at?
Fifty percent of the aquatic creatures can release water balls silently, and some may be bigger than his. It seems that the rumors are really not to be believed, or he is really a warrior.
Now it was Caesar's turn to be in trouble. He was good at this kind of magic. If he used fireballs, it might cause commotion, and the attack effect would be similar, which gave him a headache.
Caesar's expression made the whole class burst into laughter. There are really all kinds of people. He is the best at water polo. Even a sea creature can play water polo.
Of course, everyone's laughter was not sarcasm, they just thought it was funny. Caesar himself found it funny too, but there was nothing he could do. He had to use the compression magic he had just learned recently.
"Classmate Caesar, the human single-target defense magic I'm going to demonstrate requires a slightly more aggressive attack to be effective."
Yami La tried to make her tone more tactful.
"Teacher, let me do it. Caesar might be better at martial arts."
"Is this okay?" Caesar said as he combined the water balls in his hands into one.
Suddenly the whole place fell silent, with only one or two bubbles popping up occasionally, and everyone stared blankly at Caesar's hand.
Aamira quickly held up her glasses that were about to fall off. Poseidon, this is compression magic.
Caesar touched his head a little embarrassedly. He was indeed not very good at magic, except for water balls and compressed water balls. Anyway, they were all water balls, but this one had great destructive power. He was afraid that he would be in debt every time he disrupted official business.
"Old, teacher, is that compression magic, or an illusion?"
"This should be compression magic, right, Caesar?" Yamila was not sure. Although she believed that she had some knowledge of magic and was no worse than those teachers of the Edinburgh royal family, she really couldn't be sure.
"Yes, teacher, this is something I just learned recently. If you press two water balls, they become one."
As he spoke, Caesar made another one, and a small blue water ball appeared in the sky of the classroom.
Ping pong, bang bang, bang...
In an instant, tables, chairs and benches flew everywhere, and the students all ran to the wall to distance themselves from Caesar.
"Teacher, is this really dangerous compression magic? Mom said it could easily explode and it's extremely powerful. Should we not play this in the classroom?"
