Judgment? Understanding of Faith-Based Magic
The Flame Archangel behind him fully unfurled its bright yellow, armor-covered wings, holding a flame sword radiating scorching heat in its hand.
The temperature in the room rose slightly.
"Woof."
The Small Evil Spirit Dog seemed to sense the powerful aura emanating from the Flame Archangel and immediately cowered behind Tang Zheng's legs.
Looking at the newly summoned Third Tier angel, Tang Zheng couldn't help but size it up.
"Faith-based magic is quite interesting."
Recalling the casting process, he realized that he didn't need to have faith in anything fixed.
During the meditation just now, Tang Zheng imagined himself in his mind. Since the casters of this world could have faith in the Six Great Gods, why couldn't he have faith in himself? After all, he was a Player.
Then!
He inexplicably sensed an invisible ball of Mana.
To be sure.
Tang Zheng imagined the image of angels from various works in his previous life, and he sensed the existence of that invisible ball of Mana again.
As for what this ball of Mana was? Tang Zheng felt that it was more like magical energy that already existed in this world. Then, he summoned the Flame Archangel.
The process in between was somewhat indescribable.
If he had to describe it...
Tang Zheng lowered his head and pondered.
It was like transmitting his own thoughts into it and then forming a reaction with this ball of Mana.
No! It was a bit like "Judgment."
But what was being judged, Tang Zheng couldn't confirm. This process should have been completed in an instant.
Looking at the Flame Archangel floating in mid-air.
Tang Zheng felt a slight connection. With just a thought, he could easily control it. Without giving any commands, the summoned creature would prioritize protecting the caster.
Such a summoned creature was perfect for him, who intended to disguise himself as a Magic Caster without exposing his close combat abilities.
"My current Faith-Based Magic Caster Level has reached Level 40 with the stacking. I should be able to master Sixth Tier (36-42) magic."
Tang Zheng had this thought in his mind, closed his eyes, and meditated again.
Currently, he could convert to four Faith-Based classes—Genius 10Lv (Priest, Priestess, Forest Priest, Shrine Priest)!
With the previous experience.
This time, Tang Zheng quickly entered the state, and the fluctuation of Mana emerged from the surface of his body.
But the next moment, this Mana fluctuation suddenly dissipated!
Tang Zheng opened his eyes in confusion, revealing a surprised and astonished expression: "How could it be, did I fail?"
He closed his eyes again.
The result was still the same!
After several consecutive attempts, Tang Zheng found that he couldn't summon a Fourth Tier angel at all.
"So that's how it is!"
"I understand." Tang Zheng reopened his eyes, a hint of understanding in his eyes.
When he summoned the Third Tier angel just now, the feeling of "Judgment" was not strong, but the situation of repeatedly failing to summon the Fourth Tier angel at this moment.
Allowed Tang Zheng to clearly feel this "Judgment"! To summon an angel, one must first master the Angel Summoning spell. This was the first Judgment—passed.
Then, the Magic Caster Level.
His Faith-Based Magic Caster Level was naturally sufficient—the second Judgment passed!
The problem appeared in the third Judgment!
Tang Zheng wanted to summon a Fourth Tier angel, with a level between (22-28).
But the problem is, Tang Zheng's level is only 21, so it's impossible for him to summon magical creatures higher than his own level, meaning the Player's level isn't high enough.
"Fourth Tier Angel Summoning" failed! This so-called "judgment"...
Is actually Tang Zheng using game terminology to better understand things.
People in the other world wouldn't encounter this situation, because there's no such thing as Tang Zheng's Magic Caster Level being higher than the Player's level.
"For people in the other world, mastering higher-level magic is a learning process, which is the process of increasing their own class level."
"The reason I can cast 'Third Tier Angel Summoning' is because I already mastered 'Second Tier Angel Summoning', and I'm using a higher Magic Caster Level to activate it, thus successfully summoning it."
"Heh."
Tang Zheng chuckled with a strange expression, "So this is the faith-based Mana system of this world?"
The Mana cluster he sensed should be the natural energy in the world.
The basis for a Faith-Based Magic Caster to activate Mana should be combining their own Mana with the energy in nature to cast spells.
So-called "faith" is to make the caster more attuned to a certain aspect of energy in nature? Tang Zheng guessed in his heart.
But he wasn't too sure. After all, in the game, this was just background setting information, and in the other world, he hadn't interacted with any Magic Casters of that system.
However.
Through this personal experience just now, Tang Zheng had a clearer understanding of the faith-based magic system.
Bang—
Suddenly.
A slight Mana vibration sounded, bringing Tang Zheng back to his senses.
He saw.
The guardian angel summoned with the Magic Scroll was starting to turn into specks of light and dissipate.
Tang Zheng was startled, and quickly picked up the Pocket Watch on the table to check the time.
"A little over 29 minutes, so about half an hour."
"This time should be enough to support a normal battle."
Tang Zheng silently calculated the time in his mind, and looked up at the Flame Archangel he had created.
So far, there was no sign of it dissipating.
The angel he summoned himself should exist for a longer time, as long as it wasn't destroyed.
"Let's test its strength."
Tang Zheng reached out and grabbed the Silence Short Staff from the air.
Mana activated!
An invisible Mana barrier quickly spread out, covering the entire room.
The rooms in the inn were originally prepared for Adventurer teams, and there was no furniture other than a bed and a small wooden table, so it was naturally quite spacious.
"Attack me."
Tang Zheng gave the Flame Archangel an order.
Whoosh! The red visor on the head armor of the Flame Archangel, which had been motionless, flashed with a red light, and its bright yellow wings flapped.
Swoosh! The Flame Archangel rushed over at an extremely fast speed, and the flaming blade in its hand quickly slashed down.
Tang Zheng squatted down, dodging the swift sword, and at the same time, pushed off the ground with his back foot, quickly creating distance.
"The speed is average, about the same as an adult Evil Spirit Dog."
Tang Zheng evaluated expressionlessly, rotated his wrist, and a Iron Sword appeared in his hand, waving it to block in front of him.
Almost at the same moment!
Bang! The Flame Archangel's figure pressed forward, and the flame sword collided with the Iron Sword, bursting out with intense sparks.
Creak, creak!
The position where the Iron Sword in his hand collided with the Flame Sword emitted a grating sound.
Tang Zheng moved his arm closer to his chest, his legs slightly bent, but his eyes lit up: "Not bad strength."
He glanced at the other party's Flame Sword.
It should contain both fire and divine Mana attributes, giving it an advantage in attacking the undead, but against non-undead, the fire attribute damage would be greater.
"Then, it's my turn."
Tang Zheng gripped the Iron Sword in his hand with a bit more force, his leg suddenly kicked out, forcefully aiming at the Flame Archangel's chest.
