Chapter 183 - Life Of The Magicians



<So, the people here live as long as 100 years, and it\'s not uncommon for ordinary people to live 110 or even 120 years. This is very different from my previous world, and it really makes me happy.> Evan thought as he turned another page.

At this point, Evan had spent 36 years of his life as a price for the power of demons. Humans lived about 60-70 years in his past world, so at best, he would have lived to be 34. Of course, Evan understood that magicians were unlikely to live that short, and the stronger they got, the longer they lived. But, he didn\'t expect even ordinary people to live so much.

<So, even if I were an ordinary man, given the sacrificed years, I\'d live to 66 rather than 34. That\'s actually reassuring. I hope that magicians live many times longer than ordinary people.> Evan thought to himself when he finally found out the information he needed.

He quickly read through a few pages and muttered with a satisfied face: "So many..."

Magicians didn\'t just live longer than ordinary people. They constantly increased their lifespan. Every time a magician broke through one of his "Barriers," his lifespan increased. The same was true when a magician broke through to a new level. Moreover, once a magician got a talent for magic and managed to get into "Nirvana," he could live from 170 to 200 years. This was a tremendous amount of time, considering that you simply had to be a novice magician to do it.

When a newbie magician broke the "Barrier," his life was increased by about 30 years. Total, if he broke through three "Barriers" and very soon he was about to break through and reach the "One-Pointed Star," then his lifespan was 300 years.

If a magician made a breakthrough and reached the "One-Pointed Star," his lifespan was increased by another 200 years, and after that, for each "Barrier" he broke through, his lifespan was increased by another 50 years.

So, that makes Evan\'s lifespan at the moment 500 years, or 464 years if you subtract the years he sacrificed for the power of the demons.

<464 years... that\'s fantastic. I thought my lifespan was 200 years max, and here\'s such a nice surprise. I guess I shouldn\'t hold back much until I\'ve spent quite a few years of my life>.

What\'s more, it wasn\'t the maximum. Evan was only at the beginning of his way. In high spirits, Evan decided to keep reading. Unfortunately, the book didn\'t say anything about the lifespan of the magicians of the "Four -Pointed Star" stage.

Evan didn\'t pay much attention to it, though. It was most likely due to the lack of information in this book. Sooner or later, Evan could find out about it anyway.

It is worth noting that after the person has awakened his talent for magic and become a magician, his appearance practically doesn\'t change with age. A magician starts aging only after 90% of his lifespan passes. And his appearance, under the influence of time, stops changing at the age of 25.

When Evan finished this book, he continued reading another one. He could stay in the library as long as he wanted. He liked getting new, exciting, and, most importantly, useful knowledge. He didn\'t mind spending a few days or even months on it. Evan enjoyed the process itself, which was very important while getting information.

Evan spent the next two months in the library. It was a huge period, but he had nowhere to rush. He had reached the "One-Pointed Star," so he could take a short break and gather the necessary amount of information.

The first thing Evan did was to read more about monster evolutions. He had already encountered quite a few evolved monsters and understood roughly what caused the evolution. But he wanted to know more about it.

He had reread more than ten books on the subject and learned a lot about monsters. First of all, evolution was a pretty rare event, only 10% of all monsters evolved. But, some monsters evolved more than three times, being of the zero rank in some incredible way.

With each evolution, the monster became stronger and gained some kind of ability. It could be active, like Reykar\'s beam, or passive, significantly increasing some of the monster\'s characteristics. The monster could have tough chitin or plates, its claws could become poisonous, and so on. It really could be compared to the magicians\' spells. With each evolution, the monster\'s appearance also changed slightly, from its size to its color.

There were also special evolutions. When they happened, the monster received a particularly powerful ability, and its appearance underwent significant changes. The monster could change its type to another at that moment, and there were two variants of events.

Let\'s take Reykar as an example and imagine that he has a special evolution. If Reykar has the blood of some very powerful raven or any other bird, he could evolve to become a monster of the same type or close to it. It\'s like a bloodline, and the cleaner it is, the more chance that this particular variant will happen.

But, there is another option - if a special evolution happens with Reykar, he can evolve into an entirely new and unknown to this world type. If Reykar doesn\'t have the blood of a powerful or ancient monster flowing in him, it will happen with a hundred percent probability.

Random evolution can make any monster very strong and open up a whole mountain of possibilities for it, but these chances are minimal. Less than one percent of monsters have undergone special evolution if the book is to be believed.

Monsters could evolve for many reasons, but the most basic and effective were: fighting and devouring others, especially magicians full of mana.

Beasts could also evolve, but their reasons were slightly different. As with monsters, beasts often evolved during combat, but it was little use in devouring others. As Demien had said earlier, unlike monsters, beasts gained hundreds of times less mana by devouring the flesh of other creatures.

More often than not, beasts evolved when they became sufficiently close and in synchrony with the forces of nature or mana. Compared to the monsters and humans, the beasts were several times faster at accumulating mana and turning it into a life force.

If you imagine that a zero ranked beast and a newbie magician will all the time "Create," and there will be no other factors like battles or mana crystals. In this case, the beast will reach the first rank about 5 times faster than the newbie magician will reach the "One-Pointed Star." In this respect, beasts were far superior to humans. Moreover, unlike the magicians, the beasts had only one "Barrier" instead of three. This also made their way easier.
