"I Let me think about it again. " Zhao Mai still didn''t fully trust the spirit Celine, so he said, "the magic in our world looks different from what you cast here. Please give me time to practice."

    The genie nodded to show understanding. "Mike, remember that you are only a part of the world, and you need the help of the world no matter what you do. The natural forces are all around you, and they are waiting and looking forward to communicating with you just as you would like to communicate with them. "

    Zhao Mai thought all the way back to where he lived. He did not have a fixed residence, but tied a hammock more than one meter above the ground. Grain reserves lie on the edge of the hammock, mouth gnawing do not know what animal bones. When he saw Zhao Mai coming back, he jumped up with his tail wagging and whirled around his feet.

    Squatting down to touch the dog, the giggle on the dog''s face makes Zhao Mai feel better. He looked at the sky, it was still early, and he was not hungry, so he decided to practice again. The best place to practice is wuwushu, where Zhao Mai achieved his first success.

    He wanted to see if he could get into the state of enlightenment, so that he could talk to the heads that the Druids had turned into. Many of the scenes at that time have been forgotten, and what the words that shot into their eyes actually said has been completely blurred. Many people have this kind of situation, but few people like him can''t release their magic after enlightenment.

    I wish I had a system to help myself. Then you can see someone shooting a fireball, you can analyze hundreds of fireball models, then optimize them, and then you can learn. Zhao Mai laughed at himself. He didn''t have that life and couldn''t hold his big golden finger. What''s more, that finger is fantastic! Who said that seeing the results can reverse the process? Isn''t it that seeing an individual can analyze the posture of his parents when they made a human, and by the way, it can be optimized? There is no simple way to learn. The foundation of learning is not as good as that of local people, and the perception of the world is not enough. There is only one way: practice more.

    Anyway, if the spell is not cast, it will only consume saliva and a little physical strength. Zhao Mai is a man in his twenties, and this consumption is ignored.

    Of course, practice can not be silly practice, to calm down to experience, sum up, strive for every trace of progress. Zhao Mai sat cross legged under a big tree, holding a poisonous mushroom in his hand, casting his magic over and over again.

    This sitting is half a day, the sky has been inundated by stars and night, Zhao Mai still did not leave. The grain reserve sleeps in boredom. It''s tired of watching it for a long time. As a dog that can teleport, I feel helpless that the master can''t use this basic magic. If it could talk, it might have started to talk. Unfortunately, the dog''s mouth can only bark, in addition to causing interference, there is no help.

    "If a spell can''t be released, it may be that there is a problem in the coordination of actions, language, etc., or simply because the force is not up to level." A parrot fell on Zhao Mai''s side. As he said this, he began to deform and finally became the appearance of the fairy teacher Celine. "Mike, do you have any worries in your heart? If you don''t solve them, the natural force will not be able to help you."

    "I don''t understand why the energy of the natural force can purify the toxin in the mushroom?"

    "So you''re thinking about that?" Celine and Zhao Mai sat down side by side and looked at him sideways: "actually, I don''t know why. Few Druids can tell why. There are several opinions and schools, but because no one can convince anyone, there are cracks between them. "

    "Isn''t that a very important question?" Zhao Mai asked strangely, "shouldn''t we explore the reasons, understand the rules, and then make changes according to the situation?"

    "Your idea is a very rigorous one, but the focus of the Druids is not there, at least we diehards are not." Celine explained, "it''s like eating. You don''t order your stomach and intestines to move and digest, you don''t order your body to absorb nutrients, you believe they will work well. When you''re ready to eat, they''ll know and be ready; if there''s a problem, they''ll let you know in time. The same is true of Druid magic. I will not affect how the force does it. They have their own methods and tricks. All you have to do is use your own force to tell them what you think, just like putting food in your mouth. For the rest, you have to believe in nature, which has its own wisdom. "

    "That is to say, I manage too much and think too much, and my own ideas affect the work of the force?"

    "I''m not you. I can''t say for sure that''s all the reason." Celine said gently: "I see you practice here again and again and work harder than others. Then I know you are a good child. But I think you''re still confused about magic, which is deeply rooted in your heart. There''s a way to get rid of this confusion, and that''s to feel like casting a spell yourself. "

    "How can this be done?"

    The genie put his fingers together and put them on Zhao Mai''s temple. "Relax and concentrate. I pass on my senses."

    Zhao Mai swallowed his saliva, and then slowed down the flick of his fingers. First, he released the owl''s wisdom, which improved Zhao Mai''s perception of the surrounding environment. Whether it is for the divine force or the natural force, the first condition for casting magic is to feel the existence of these two forces. Under the influence of the magic, Zhao Mai became very clear. The touch of the fairy teacher''s wet and cool fingers on his skin was even clearer.It''s not just the fingers, but now the whole arm is mapped into your mind. Zhao Mai frowned. Shouldn''t this be the effect of owl''s wisdom spell? Celine noticed Zhao Mai''s change and said softly, "don''t think about it too much. You should experience it more."

    After the arms is the trunk, then the other limbs and the head. Zhao Mai found himself inside the elf, watching through her eyes and listening with her ears. Heart rate is slow, chest is a little itchy, a head of long hair is a little heavy, this is Celine''s feeling every day?

    "Pay attention to the interaction between my force and the forces around me."

    Celine releases spells one after another, from ordinary prayer to slightly higher level magic, demonstrating one side for Zhao Mai. Zhao Mai did not care to experience the feelings of the elf body, but focused all his attention on the level of the natural force. His inspiration from the new first person perspective is not enough to be expressed by the spectator perspective tens of thousands of times. In the baptism of magic, he finally understood where his mistake was.

    Both men were sweating profusely as they retreated from the elf. Celine obviously consumes more. After she instructs Zhao Mai to take care of himself, she shakes away a little. Zhao Mai closed his eyes, savored the feeling in his mind, and then picked up the poisonous mushroom on the ground again.

    "It was neither an order nor a plea, nor a will to impose." Zhao Mai thought, "I''m just a part of nature. The only difference is that I have more initiative. I want to keep harmony with nature, but harmony is not equality. The so-called equality is still two independent static individuals, while harmony is dynamic mutual benefit and complementarity. "

    Therefore, the key lies in one "degree" and one "method". Zhao Mai closed his eyes, followed his own feelings and resonated with the force around him. All creatures in the world are the force, without you and me, without it. Zhao Mai felt that he had found the right feeling, so he recited the mantra of purifying food and gave the trust to the power of nature for the first time. After the spell was cast, he ate the mushroom without even opening his eyes.
