Chapter 26: Physical Modification Experiment
The Month of Books (August), in the legends of the Starlight Continent, was the month of knowledge and wisdom.
As time entered the Month of Books, Sunan became busy, immersing himself in learning and self-improvement.
First on his agenda was learning new spells.
He currently only had two first-ring spells: Charm Human and Shield Technique.
The effect of the former was obvious from its name.
The latter could create an invisible, tower shield-sized barrier that floated and rotated around the caster, providing 360-degree protection against attacks.
Since Shield Technique was essentially a force field effect, it could even block incorporeal attacks like mental assaults and soul damage.
Prioritizing his safety, Sunan naturally chose to learn Shield Technique first.

First-ring spells were far more complex than zero-ring spells.
Sunan estimated that even with the aid of the Activity Potion, it would take him about forty days to master Shield Technique.
