I can optimize spell code

Chapter 62 Listen to advice and avoid detours

Although what he extracted from these basic books were only some extremely low-level and fragmented spells, the most crucial thing was that his system finally broke through the underlying compilation environment of these factions!

Furthermore, many books on magical theories contain complete spell incantations.

This means that his "language pack dictionary" is now fully established. From now on, whenever he encounters mid-level or even high-level spells from these factions, the system will no longer prompt "lack of underlying support" or "error," but will be able to directly decompile them.

During these few days, aside from going back to eat and sleep, Luo Mu spent almost all his time in the library.

He was like a tireless scanner, finally unlocking all the basic interfaces of the natural world, except for the two special elements of light and darkness that were strictly sealed off.

After mentally reviewing the basic cross-elemental spells he had just learned, Rom stretched and closed the last book.

Theory without practice is ultimately superficial.

He remembered that Manman had mentioned that there was a large, open magic practice area on the back mountain of the academy.

He decided to go there to test the newly added code in person.

……

The public spell practice field behind the academy is surprisingly large, occupying almost half of the mountain.

To simulate actual combat, this place not only has flat bluestone slab open spaces, but also artificially divided into various complex terrains such as forests, swamps, pools, and even miniature Gobi deserts.

The area was surrounded by a sturdy energy-absorbing barrier to prevent the apprentices from accidentally destroying the back mountain. There were also "safety officers" stationed there to deal with emergencies, such as extinguishing out-of-control fire elements or rescuing students who were about to suffer a magical backlash.

Romú strolled into the practice field.

Although the weather was still cold, there were already many diligent apprentices practicing hard inside the arena.

The sounds of fireballs whistling and water splashing rose and fell, occasionally accompanied by the instructors' reprimands or the apprentices' cheers.

Luo Mu found a relatively secluded open space near a small pond.

He was just about to bring up the panel when he noticed a girl with a high ponytail, wearing an ordinary gray apprentice robe, standing a dozen meters away.

The girl looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. She wasn't particularly stunning, but she had a certain air of heroism and was dressed in a neutral and neat short outfit.

At this moment, she was gritting her teeth, sweating profusely, and wielding an ordinary wooden staff, repeatedly casting a first-tier water-based defensive spell, [Water Wall], at a wooden target in front of her.

Accompanied by a lengthy incantation, a stream of water rose from the pool, forming a semi-transparent water curtain in front of the girl.

However, the effect of this water flow wall was never very good.

The water curtain is thick in the middle and thin at the edges, and the water waves sway violently, making it extremely unstable.

"Splash!"

It didn't last more than a few seconds before the water wall lost its magical support, collapsing into a puddle on the ground, splashing water that soaked the girl's shoes and socks.

The girl bit her lip in frustration, wiped the sweat from her forehead, took a deep breath, raised her staff again, and continued chanting.

Once, twice, three times...

Each time, it would collapse due to uneven distribution of magic power, just as it was about to take shape or barely maintained for a few seconds.

Rom didn't want to get involved, but as an architect, seeing these "visible bugs causing the program to fail" seven or eight times in a row really triggered his obsessive-compulsive disorder.

He walked to an open space not far from the girl and stood there, watching her raise her staff again. Finally, he couldn't help but casually say:

"The characteristic of the water element is fluid equilibrium. Your seventh syllable's transition was drawn out too long, causing the spell to be misjudged and interrupting the upward momentum of the water. Of course, it's unstable."

The girl, who was about to cast a spell, was startled by the sudden sound.

She turned her head and looked at the unfamiliar young man, who was wearing a dark blue robe and looked to be about the same age as her. Her brows immediately furrowed.

She knew her skills were lacking, so she deliberately found a secluded corner to practice, only to be criticized in front of her, which inevitably made her somewhat unhappy.

"You also know water magic?"

The girl looked Romu up and down, noticing that he didn't even have a staff, and her tone carried a hint of doubt.

"I've been practicing the pronunciation strictly according to my instructor's instructions. You look like an apprentice yourself, so what gives you the right to say my vowels are too long?"

Luo Mu had only offered guidance because he saw how hard the girl was trying, but she had failed because of this small mistake.

Seeing that the other party didn't appreciate it, he shrugged and simply shut his mouth.

"I don't understand. I'm just an ordinary apprentice, I was just talking nonsense. Since you think the mentor is right, then just pretend I didn't say anything. Please continue."

After saying that, he turned his head and prepared to study his magic.

Looking at Luo Mu's nonchalant attitude, the girl began to have some doubts.

She recalled that when she was casting the spell, there was indeed a heavy feeling at the bottom, as if she couldn't support it.

"Since I've been failing all along... why don't we just try what he said?"

The girl bit her lip and took a deep breath.

This time, she deliberately rushed through the seventh prayer syllable, while slightly relaxing her tense wrist, making the magic output gentler.

"Whoosh—!"

A miracle happened.

A stream of clear water rose smoothly from the pool!

This time, without the siltation at the bottom, the water curtain spread upwards extremely evenly, forming a crystal-clear, azure-blue water wall in mid-air in the blink of an eye!

The girl stared blankly at the solid water curtain in front of her, which even reflected the sunlight, completely stunned.

She only came to her senses after the water flow wall lasted for a full half minute before slowly dissipating.

She jumped up excitedly, leaping towards Luo Mu like a happy little deer. Her displeasure had vanished, replaced by eyes full of joy.

"It really worked!! And I feel so relaxed! Less magic power is being used, and the water wall is more stable!"

Wow, that's amazing! How did you figure that out? Are you a high-level water mage?

Looking at this cheerful girl whose mood changed faster than flipping through a book, Luo Mu smiled faintly and casually replied:

"No, I just read a lot of books in the library most of the time."

"Can reading a lot of books really make you that good?"

Although the girl found it somewhat unbelievable, she still extended her hand and introduced herself cheerfully.

"My name is Nita! I'm also an apprentice preparing for the mage qualification exam this year. Thank you for your guidance earlier! Without you, I probably wouldn't have mastered this technique even if I practiced until dark!"

"Romance".

Luo Mu reached out and gently shook her hand.

At the moment of shaking hands, Rom observed Nita closely, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

This girl named Nita just cast [Water Wall] nearly ten times in a row.

Although they had all failed before, the depletion of magic power was real.

Logically speaking, a novice apprentice without even a badge should have been lying on the ground panting heavily, his mental energy exhausted, after casting so many first-tier spells in a row.

But Nita, apart from being a little sweaty, still had bright eyes, steady breathing, and not even a trace of mental fatigue.

"Good heavens..."

Luo Mu was secretly amazed.

"Although this girl's spellcasting skills are crude, the magical reserves and recovery speed within her body are like a bottomless pit! This is definitely not the kind of magical power that ordinary people can possess."

This girl's magical talent is probably ridiculously strong.
