Mages Are Too OP Chapter 277

Chapter 277: 277
Chapter 277 Inciden
Roland knew that his use of this combination of magic would certainly change things and cause some astonishment .
However, the impact it caused was much greater than he had imagined .
It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of it at all, he hadn’t started thinking about it to begin with .
After all, he had just figured out a new way to use magic and it seemed practical, and the exhilaration and satisfaction took over his brain for the time being .
And on the forums, the players were just marveling at first .
Then a player started a thread that gave data on how terrifying the spell was .
On the Use of Bugs With Spatial Bubble Spell .
“A lot of players should have seen the new work of the number one Mage Roland—a projection spell being used as a flying spell . A lot of people are just watching without realizing how serious this is, so I’ll tell you how scary this spell is .
“Based on the video, one can conclude that Roland’s fastest flight speed is close to the speed of sound, and while it’s true that he didn’t start out too fast, after a dozen consecutive ejections from the spatial bubble, the speed is at a point where it’s unimaginable .
“I don’t know how fast a dragon can fly, I haven’t seen one after all, but it took at least forty years from the time the first airplane was built to the time it broke the sound barrier, and how long did it take Roland between learning and flying fast enough to almost break the sound barrier… He still doesn’t even know a real flying spell .
“So… if this isn’t a bug, what is?
“In four hours of video, Roland has flown at least 3,500 kilometers . Many of you don’t know what this means, but for example, Roland can run from Guangdong to Dongbei in about four hours, close to the westerner territory .
“That’s almost on par with the speed of some of the faster domestic airliners .
“This makes the oversized map meaningless to Roland .
“He himself is an airplane .
“In the future, all Mages could be airplanes .
“In comparison, the Warlock’s contracted horses, with the cavalry’s riding skills, can only move a maximum of 300-400 kilometers per day; after all, living things need to rest .

“And this spell seems to have a low learning level, presumably from level four onwards .
“How can you tolerate such a big difference?
“I, for one, can’t stand it . I’ve already gone to the feedback section to complain, the Mage is overpowered and there’s no balance to be found .
“If you can’t tolerate it, though you can also complain about it, at least strive to get some benefits for us Warriors . ”
A lot of players were just watching on in amusement, but after reading this post, they left comments about going to give feedback and send complaints, and in less than an hour the post became a red post, which meant it was a popular post .
A large number of players started expressing their opinions in the feedback section; some of them even used extreme words .
The average number of complaints posted reached about a hundred per second .
Of course, if there were those who opposed it, there would be those who supported it .
Many Mage players, for example, said that the game was free, that how magic was used was up to the individual, and that if they were uncomfortable, everyone could play as a Mage .
Apart from Mages, there were also many players from other professions who were supporting Roland .
But overall, it was the number of people who opposed it that slightly prevailed .
Anyway, it wasn’t long before the comments section manager locked the complaints down, and at the same time, gave an announcement on the forum that the comments had been uploaded to the development team and to wait for a response .
The feedback board was locked, and the battle went to the general discussion section, otherwise known as the low-value posts section .
The two sides started threads to begin the debate, each side believing that they were correct . Although both sides had merits, most of the time, the truth was not clearer through the debate; rather, the more the debate went on, the more furious they grew, and there were even many posters who hurled insults at each other .
Roland did not know about this . He lay on the prairie for a while . The sun had gone down completely, and then it was dark all around him .

At some point, the sky was filled with dark clouds, and there was no sound other than the whistling of the wind and the rustling of the dancing grass .
An eerie silence .
Roland stood up, looked around, and then looked at his mana value . Long-Distance Teleportation was not going to work, after all, the distance was too far—three to four thousand kilometers of teleportation would have to use up at least about seventy percent of his mana value .
But Mud to Stone was not a problem .
A small two-story rock building was built, and Roland purposely sealed the doors and windows, leaving only a few small ventilation holes .
Because the prairie was overly quiet and always had a strange atmosphere, Roland worried that some strange vermin or magical beasts might attack, so he sealed the doors and windows and thickened the walls of the house .
Then he took out small tables and chairs from his Backpack, as well as food and drinks, and cast a Light Ball .
Then he browsed the web while eating .
He didn’t look at the forums but watched a movie . It would be a bit annoying to read the forum every day, and it wasn’t a bad thing to enjoy entertainment and relax once in a while .
As he was watching, he suddenly felt that something was wrong .
The surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that he could hear his own heartbeat .
This was abnormal .
Being in a natural environment, even if it was quiet, there would always be some noise .
It would either be the sound of biological activity or the sound produced by other natural phenomena .
If there really was a situation where there were no outside sounds whatsoever, then one’s own body would become an echo chamber .
The sound of the stomach moving to digest food, the sound of the blood flowing, the sound of the heart beating, and so on .
All of these sounds would be infinitely amplified in the silence, causing normal people to become neurotic and even begin to develop fear .
Roland was now level six and had high mental resistance .
He wasn’t afraid, but he started to feel uncomfortable and even quite depressed .
And instinctively, he sensed that something was wrong .
A very uncomfortable aura enveloped him .
Roland stood up .
There was no window in the room, so naturally, he couldn’t see the outside . In this situation, he didn’t want to “open” a window, in case something jumped in .
He threw down three magic spiders and ordered them to crawl to the outside through the ventilation holes .
Then several images came in through the mental channel .
Around the house, several giant spiders appeared .
At first, Roland thought it was a giant spider he had seen in Red Mountain Town, but then what the magic spiders transmitted back shocked him .
These spiders were all three meters tall, silver-white, and most importantly, they all had a huge human face on their backs .
Initially, Roland thought that this was a pattern on the spider’s back, but then the images sent back from the magic spiders showed that these faces were smiling and laughing weirdly .
These spiders were weaving cocoons, and together, they had already built an empty, tall, egg-shaped cocoon around the house, and now they were just missing the opening at the head of the house . The strangest thing was that when they moved, there was no sound at all, and even the sounds from outside seemed to have been eliminated .
Were they capturing him?
Roland looked at his mana value; it had recovered to around 51%, thanks to the specialty of Roland’s Zeal . His mana value was still recovering quite quickly .
It was expected that by the time these human-faced spiders had woven the cocoon, Roland would have more than enough magic power to use Long-Distance Teleportation .
Roland had thought that these spiders would seal themselves in with their prey, after all, it was like a means of rounding up prey .
However, unexpectedly, these spiders crawled out from the opening on top of their heads and finally sealed that as well .
They seemed to have trapped Roland inside .
Hmm… is this like storing food?
Roland’s interest was piqued .

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Bookworld Online: Marsh Man
Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online! Your name is David Drake and you are a 10 year old slave to the Marsh Hag. You were bought from your parents when you were only a small child at two years old. You don't really remember your old family at all. That's a good thing, since you would hate them on sight for selling you to her. All you've know for your whole life is pain. You are usually quickly healed and receive a lot of training and experience as her unofficial apprentice. It's unofficial because she would never pay to have you registered as an actual apprentice. To everyone else, you are just the boy she took pity on and brought into her home. What they don't know is that you are much more than that. So much more. You are her food. She uses you as her own personal buffet and she indulges herself quite often. You even have the permanent scars to prove it. You have learned many things from her, mostly without her knowing, since you have been helping more and more with her spell work the last few years and her potion making. The only parts you can't do are the magic condensing rituals that her potions require and the mana infusions that a lot of her other creations need. Do you wish to initiate the Main Storyline with these parameters? Please Note: I publish daily.Second Note: I changed this story to a fan fiction. It is based on Swamp Boy. The old story is about 4 years old and was dropped after 19 long chapters. The author hasn't been online since then, so I figured it was safe to do my own take on it.
