Elite Mages’ Academy

Chapter 125: Skill Book

"How do you call it?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Surnamed Xiao." After all, he was an unknowing stranger, Xiao Lin did not directly reveal his name

The man didn't care, and smiled kindly: "My name is Lin, and I have left Dawn Academy for decades, right? What grade are you in?"

Xiao Lin noticed that the man said that he was leaving from dawn, not graduating, and that he was a very old predecessor for decades. He was a little confused and surprised, but he couldn't ask too much, and replied: "freshman."

The man was a little surprised: "Just enrolled, freshman?"

"Yes."

"It's surprising that a new student appeared in the dawn."

The two chatted briefly, but the man did not continue to ask Xiao Lin what he was doing here or how he came here, he could see that he was a very cultivated person, and soon their topic returned to the bookshelf here.

"These books are in my personal collection. I collected them when I traveled around the New World in my early years. Not all of them. There are some translations. I have no other hobbies, so I can only read books. I don't use these books anymore. It’s a waste to keep it, so I just open a small shop here and don’t want to make money. It’s good to ask a few friends to sit in in my spare time.

Speaking of this, the man smiled and said: "You can pick it at will, I will give you the cost price. It is a rare fate to have guests come. It is okay to give you a gift, but I still have to recover some of the cost. The house prices in New Washington are not cheap. ."

Xiao Lin also picked it unceremoniously, but within a few minutes, the man realized that he was a layman. He didn't know how to judge and choose the skill book. Thinking that Xiao Lin was just a freshman, the man was not too surprised. The sound explained a little.

The so-called skill book is obviously not a concept with the game, and it does not mean that you can learn it immediately with a mouse click. The skill book is actually a textbook. The textbook will describe the composition of skills, learning requirements, and usage methods in detail. The slightly higher-end ones will also include more classic battle examples.

The skill books on the men's bookshelf are very old, the footer is more severely rolled, and the writing is a lot of wrinkles. However, it can be seen that men have kept these skill books very well, and they are not too damaged.

Xiao Lin wasn't too disgusted, but he couldn't help but pay. These were not new books anymore, even if they were just cost prices. It doesn't seem to be cheap anymore.

But when he flipped through it for a few moments, it lit up, and his thoughts were thrown out of the sky. In the skill book, in addition to the printed characters, there are often lines of red writing next to it. This is obviously a man. Later, I added the annotations.

Approximately seeing what Xiao Lin was thinking, the man said, "These are my early learning experience, which is considered personal experience. You can refer to it if you want to see it. If you don't want to see it, just ignore it. I dare not say that my experience is suitable. everyone."

What Xiao Lin read was some high-level skill books. He may not be able to learn the skills in them now. From the men's labels, these labels are definitely of great value.

For example, in the skill book of Bursting Fireball, beside a certain section of the introduction of the starting hand casting action, the man has the following mark. If these actions are omitted, the power of the Bursting Fireball will only be reduced by about 10%, but the casting time of the condensed element It will be reduced by several seconds.

Such small details. Sometimes it may play a key role. After all, for a spell, a few seconds less may be the relationship between victory or defeat.

Xiao Lin read these notes with gusto. I soon realized that it was wrong. For people who sell books, people who hate buying books will undoubtedly look down on them.

The man had returned to his sofa and said with a smile: "Sit here and watch, there is more light here."

Xiao Lin was a little embarrassed, and put down the skill book in his hand. In addition to skill books, there are many translations from the New World here. They are not necessarily skill books. They are all written by local indigenous strong people.

Xiao Lin felt that he was a bit picky. He looked around and found it good, but he didn't know where to choose.

The man saw his embarrassment and walked over again: "Let’s talk about what type of course are you taking. In fact, for freshmen, most of my skill books are probably not used by you."

Xiao Lin thought for a while, and said, "Basic skill books are fine."

The man raised his eyebrows: "What about the basic skills? There are so many basic skills. The major elements of spells have basic skills, and there are also complex elements. Melee combat also has basic skills."

"Then what kinds of types do you have?" Xiao Lin said. The men's notes in the book find him very useful. If there is a basic skill book, he doesn't mind taking some.

"Hehe, if I had both."

Xiao Lin was a little surprised, and even couldn't help but wonder if this man was the type with all weapons and more repairs?

It seems to see his thoughts again~lightnovelpub.net~ The man smiled: "I said I like reading books, but I prefer to collect books. I don’t have much energy to learn the skill books here. Many are actually from others. The skill books that are repurchased at a low price are consumables. After mastering this skill, the skill books will have no value, and no one will buy the used skill books, so I will buy them at a low price. "

"Buy it at a low price, just to read the book?" Xiao Lin was a little puzzled, but he quickly realized that what a man reads is not the skill book itself, but the labels in the skill book by other people.

Sure enough, the man said, “Everyone’s understanding of skills is different. I am not a learning genius, let alone a talented student. My understanding of some skills is actually based on the learning experience of many other people. Sum up."

"Can you show me your basic skills book?"

"That will have to wait a while."

The man agreed very happily, turned and left and went to the basement. After a while, he came back with the heavy copper box and put it on the floor with a loud noise. The box was covered with thick dust.

"These are all accumulated from traveling around in the early years. I haven't read them for decades. Later, major colleges began to use standard textbooks, and few people read these basic skills books."

While explaining, the man wiped the dust and opened the lid of the box. It was filled with books, large and small. Xiao Lin picked up a copy and looked through it, and unexpectedly found that it was filled with handwritten characters and the skills on the bookshelf. The book is completely different. The skill books here are all handwritten.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a skill book instead of saying that these are all study notes. ) Book friends hurry up and pay attention!
