Chapter 930: Chapter 760 Spell Collection

As a legendary magician.

The Baseless One’s lifetime achievements were not solely about establishing the Wizard Tower.

The Wizard Tower itself was merely his greatest achievement, recording tens of thousands of spells, even simple spells like the Illumination Spell were included, though it wasn’t limited to the simple spells all apprentices knew.

Legend has it, the Wizard Tower even documented the path to Godhood.

Later, that world perished.

The Wizard Tower vanished alongside the Baseless One in the tides of time and space, leaving only fragments of power that occasionally appeared in the Script Worlds.

As a result, there are many items related to the Baseless One.

Yet none of these items can be contracted.

The Script Space can only allow players to acquire them.

“The spell collection book stems from the fragments of power within the Wizard Tower. If you want to complete the collection, you must enter the Wizard Tower; you can’t assemble fragments from elsewhere to complete it.”

“Because every ‘collection fragment’ connects to the Wizard Tower. Within the fragments, all the spells recorded in the Tower exist—they aren’t literally pieces of a single book.”

“In a way, the spell collection is essentially a fragment of the Wizard Tower itself.”

Hong Rao slowly explained: “So, many players dedicate themselves to finding the Wizard Tower, all for the sake of obtaining the complete spell collection.”

Xu Shuo pondered after hearing this: “Even with all the spells in the Wizard Tower, if one insisted on learning ten spells a day, eventually they’d finish them. Then wouldn’t it be unnecessary to find the Wizard Tower?”

Hong Rao looked at him with a sly smile.

“Do you think the idea of learning ten spells a day really means learning in the traditional sense?” she remarked with a hint of teasing.

“There’s a limitation?” Xu Shuo paused.

He suddenly recalled how Wald XVIII used those spells—he would always take out the book and sketch the Runes displayed on its pages.

Perhaps this also implied—

One can only use the Runes that appear in the book?

“In the Wizard Tower, ‘learning’ means…”

Hong Rao interjected: “To be more accurate, it means ‘learning to use.'”

“Learning to use”—

Learn as you use, use it up, then learn again.

Xu Shuo’s expression turned peculiar: “So learning ten spells a day essentially means you can only use ten spells a day?”

Hong Rao continued: “Exactly. And the user needs to physically and mentally connect with the spell collection for it to count as linking to the Wizard Tower. Then the Tower will unlock the Rune for you, but no more than ten spells can be unlocked within twenty-four hours.”

Xu Shuo suddenly understood.

No wonder Wald XVIII always insisted on holding the book when casting spells—it was essentially “learning on the spot”!

Thinking about it, Xu Shuo lowered his gaze to observe the dense, twisted Runes on the book.

The number of Runes recorded here.

It might represent all the spells within the Wizard Tower.

The book was vast and thick, impossible to hold with just one hand, and each page contained hundreds of Runes.

Accumulating into tens of thousands of spells.

Xu Shuo suddenly fell into thought: “So if I want to accurately determine which spells are useful, and prepare the ten spells I want to use, I’ll need to memorize all of these spell Runes first?”

Memorize tens of thousands of spells.

Just to use ten spells a day?

The effort doesn’t seem proportional to the reward…

Because if one wanted to maximize the benefits of this item, the best approach would be to familiarize oneself with the contents of the collection, so when faced with various circumstances, they could strategically utilize their ten daily spell slots.

Otherwise, if you carelessly use up all your slots.

And then suddenly realize there’s a more suitable spell in the collection that could perfectly resolve the current predicament!

But your ten slots are already spent.

Instantly, from heaven to the Abyss.

By then, such emotions could crack one open on the spot!

Xu Shuo already felt a headache coming.

Meanwhile, beside him, Hong Rao couldn’t contain herself and chuckled softly.

“If Little Shuo wants to study these spells, I can take you to the Star Guild. Those enthusiasts have categorized thirty-six thousand spells, and some exceptionally useful ones have been compiled separately.”

Hong Rao shrugged and said: “But they’re unwilling to make their collection information publicly available. To access it, you have to join the Star Guild.”

Thirty-six thousand categorized spells…

But it sounds like many still remain unclassified.

Xu Shuo rarely felt his scalp tingle.

He thought if he used the Alpha Character Card to learn and memorize, the high-intensity mental load might rival reliving Alpha’s thousand years of memories.

Though memory playback was akin to watching a movie glimpse while asleep, these spells require active study.

He felt his current spiritual power couldn’t support it.

So after considering it.

Starting by learning the most important spells seemed more practical.

“But if I go to study, do I have to pay something? If joining an organization is mandatory, then forget it.” Xu Shuo asked Hong Rao.

“Don’t worry, you won’t need to pay anything. The Miracle Guild and Star Guild have an alliance; I can reserve a spot for you to enter temporarily for study,” Hong Rao replied with a smile.

“Is it your reservation, or the Miracle Guild’s?” Xu Shuo’s eyes subtly gleamed.
