"Del Kora, come here, I need you to put on a show. ”

Delkora scratched her head, and with some frustration in her staff, she walked past the crowd and to the front. He consciously stood across from the training beast and looked back at Levi.

He was now only a dozen meters away from the training beast, and if he was facing a real demonic beast, this distance would be almost equal to nothing—sure enough, Levi frowned and scolded angrily, "Do you think you are at a safe distance now?

"......" Delcora turned around, rolled her eyes at Levi from an angle that the students couldn't see, and obediently took a few steps back, distancing herself from the training beast.

How could he not know such a simple truth?

It's just that before he was listed, a certain unscrupulous young mentor used his spiritual power to guide his actions, and let him be a teaching material case.

But this distance is not dangerous for the magician, as long as he masters the magic of flickering, which is just a low-level magic, the magician can learn it.

It's very simple, just like the Assassin's Shadow Space, you can't learn it because you're stupid.

"So you're asking me to give you a standard combat lesson according to the textbook, right?" Delkora asked helplessly in the psychic communication.

"I'd actually prefer you to make some mistakes, which will help me teach. But if you're willing to put on a perfect show, I'll respect your opinion. ”

"That's the only word that I agree with. It's just a show. ”

"So do you have any real combat experience?"

"In addition to being a student, I am also a black iron mercenary, teacher. ”

He cut off the psychic communication and obediently stood in place with his staff in hand.

Their performance, of course, can't just start so simply. This was a lesson after all, and Levi wanted to teach the students the skills of using elemental magic in actual combat, not just a combat performance, so he wanted to explain it to the students first, so that the group of students who had little experience in actual combat could understand what they were learning.

"First of all, I want to tell you that all the combat knowledge I am going to talk about is based on your situation as a mage and on your own. If you have more than one squad of knights around you at all times, including when you sleep and go to the bathroom, then you can skip this lesson. If not, then you have to listen carefully. ”

"I've watched you guys fight with seniors — no, not fighting, it's an insult to the word fighting. I watched you being bullied by the senior students," Levi deliberately accentuated the word "bullying", "You have no defense at all, just a few low-level magic can beat you to the ground, and you have forgotten even the basic defense counterattack?"

In the crowd, several students puffed up their chests slightly. But they were then swept away by Levi's stern gaze.

"Do you think I'm going to praise you? Indeed, you put up your shields to block the first wave of attacks, but then what? In the face of unscathed enemy mages and without a guard by your side, you actually start preparing for a large magic circle that requires a magic circle? If I were your opponent, I could even smoke a cigarette and think about what to eat for dinner before I kill you!"

Low laughter rang out in the queue. A few students puffed out their chests and quietly shrank themselves back.

After a reprimand, Levi breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "The first rule of mage fighting: never get close to your enemies. Del Kora, Fireball!"

A command without a beginning or an end, but Delkora understood what he meant. He raised his staff and pretended to recite the incantation: "Fire, Condensation!"

A small fireball flew towards the training beast and hit its head, splashing a small spark.

The training beast, which had been sluggish and motionless, suddenly shot out towards Delkora like lightning, shortening the distance between the two by half in one step. But Delkora had already prepared, and before the fireball spell hit the training beast, he was already preparing a second spell, and when the training beast pounced, a rising wall of fire suddenly rose from in front of it.

The training beast realistically simulates the reaction of the beast in actual combat. The sudden burst of fire and heat made it flinch in fright, and it stopped in front of the wall of fire, and just as it hesitated to get around it, the third wave of Delkora's magic had arrived.

The first is the earth-based magic "Stone Shaping Technique", which condenses into several stones at the feet of the training beast and traps its limbs. The stone was not hard, and it could easily break free, but several wind blades flew out from behind the wall of fire, facing its eyes, and it had to duck its head to dodge, and then a series of water bombs concentrated the wall of fire, bringing up a thick water vapor, obscuring the view, and the second round of magic had arrived.

"Earth, Convergence, Sharpness, Piercing, Stone Spearmanship!"

Four or five sharp stone spears were condensed under and around the training beast, the formation of these stone spears was too slow compared to other basic magic, and it was easy to dodge, but due to the limitations of the stone shaping technique and the obscuration of the water mist, the restless training beast actually did not notice the formation of the stone spear.

Then, all the stone spears stabbed the limbs of the training beast fiercely.

Of course, these stone spears could not really penetrate the body of the training beast, but the training beast was very dedicated to simulating the effect of the stone spear - the strength of this training beast was only limited to the level of ordinary black iron rank demonic beasts, the body was not hard, and the sharp tip of the stone spear was enough to pierce its body. Although the stone spear disintegrated on its own when it came into contact with the high-level elemental neutralization circle on the training beast's body, the training beast let out a wail, and its limbs were simulated and fixed in place, unable to break free again.

At this time, Delkora had already drawn a simple but complete magic circle with the fire element in front of him. He then raised his staff, and the fire elemental gathered towards the tip of his staff.

"Scattered fire elementals, bursts converge here, flame light descends from the sky, and flames burn the earth!

Countless huge fireballs condensed in the sky, and immediately after, the fireballs rained down, completely enveloping the area where the training beast was located.

After more than ten seconds, the smoke and dust cleared, and the training beast stood silently in place, all traces of magic around it disappeared. But Delkora knew that it wasn't his failure, it meant that he had succeeded—the training beast was no longer moving. Levi nodded at him as well.

The release of his series of magic was smooth, and the onlookers were already a little stunned.

"The creator god is above! Those spells look so powerful!"

"No, except for the final rain of flames, all other magic is basic magic!"

"Oh my God, is that really what basic magic can do?"

"I've only seen this kind of technique in the family's great magician!"

The students were talking.

These students were only fourteen-year-olds, and most of them had never seen a wild beast in the fourteen years of their lives. And they were able to be promoted to the Black Iron Rank at the age of fourteen, not only because of the so-called geniuses, but also because of their hard work and cultivation day and night—which meant that they spent most of their time in school, and they didn't have the opportunity to do too much actual combat training. At the elementary and junior high school level, combat training is considered premature and meaningless, and except for those who aspire to become mercenaries, or are preparing to sign up for the army, there are few people who teach actual combat in advance.

This is a major deficiency in education today, but now that there has been no large-scale war for a long time, this change is taken for granted and necessary - the progress of civilization does not depend entirely on force.

So, when they witnessed their peers Delkora unleash so many powerful spells, their expressions bordered on adoration.

"See, this is the perfect way to use magic in practice," Levi coughed lightly, stopping the students' heated discussion, "The power of magic is not only in its destructive power, but also in the fact that different spells can bring completely different effects, and sometimes, a low-level magic that is cast just right can bring effects that are not inferior to intermediate or even high-level magic." Like just now,"

He stretched out his hand to the training beast.

"This kind of training beast simulates the common black iron level monster jumping wolf in the grassland environment, all the abilities of this kind of monster are just average, but the bounce power is far beyond the ordinary wolf, how should I deal with it in this case? Delkora, tell me about your thinking when you cast your magic. ”

"My idea is actually very simple, because four-legged monsters generally have strong limbs but are not flexible, and the only basic magic that can effectively limit is Stone Molding, and attacking the wall of fire with water bombs is to block its vision and prepare for the subsequent stone spear technique, and if the stone spear technique is connected to the ground, it can produce a certain limiting effect, relying on this limiting effect, I can have enough time to prepare for the final lore magic. Del Cora briefly recounted his thoughts.

“......”

Is this different from not saying it? The students complained in their hearts.

Everyone knows these things, but the point is, how do you calm down and think so much when you're so nervous?

"Del Kora...... Have you ever had a real combat experience?"

Suddenly, a girl in the crowd raised her hand.

It was an elven girl.

"Ah...... Alania-san. Yes, you guessed that right, I have real combat experience. Before coming to Landmund, I had a four-month trip to the continent, and during that time I became a Black Iron Mercenary. Delkora politely said to Alania, "This has helped me a lot in my magic practice, and it is very rewarding to encounter and defeat a magical beast in actual combat." ”

"Wow......"

There was a burst of exclamations from the crowd of students.
