Fight
For the Darko team, this match against the Nairobi team will not only determine whether they can show up, but also the contract signed with Salver. Darko and the other six people were very aware of the importance of this game, and walked into the armed zone with serious expressions in turn.
Otto looked across the ring and saw that the six members of the Nairobi team were also gearing up and ready to make a big move, Darko said quietly, "The Nairobi team has lost two games in a row, and even if they win this game, they can't advance, why are they still so motivated?"
Kevin also saw the situation over there, and said in a voice that only six people could hear, "If Salver wants the result of the game he planned to be realized, we must give the orc warriors that kind of potion at the same time, and the Nairobi team can't give up the game, otherwise it is not impossible for Nairobi to abstain." So Salver must have negotiated with the Nairobi team, probably promising a little favor and letting them play as hard as they can. ”
Leah pouted, "It's so cautious, I hate people like that." ”
Phyllis waved her hand impatiently, "No matter what he does, we have to do our best anyway, as for how the other party is going to resist, there is no need to think about it at all." ”
The chief referee announced the start of the game, and the two teams immediately got into arms, with everyone on the Dakko team putting their energy into the game and doing their part. Instead of helping Otto sift through the plants first, Leah grinds the magic ink and immediately hands it over to Dako for Darko to copy the glyphs. This time they were armed differently, and in order to complete the victory against their opponents as quickly as possible, they used almost all of their auxiliary means to attack. Among them, the glyph copied by Darko accounts for the largest proportion, and all kinds of auxiliaries are gathered on the glyph, and the power is transmitted to the fist with the glyph, and the power is released along with the attack of the orc warrior.
Otto, a half-hung pharmacist, was naturally the most nervous of all, and even though he had practiced hundreds of times in the past few days, he was still nervous and didn't dare to breathe. Otto's hand had been shaking slightly involuntarily, but the glyphs of the Drainage Technique and the Flaming Hand lit up steadily in layers. While Leah helped Dake sharpen the ink, she was still worried about Otto, and from time to time she watched with her spare eyes, and was relieved when she saw this scene. Even though Otto's hands trembled with nervousness, the mana that activated the glyph in his body was not disordered, indicating that the practice of the past few days had imprinted the process of casting the glyph into Otto's instinct. As long as the glyph casting does not get out of control, there is no need to worry about problems with Otto's alchemy. Otto, who has the support of the Lag Realm, has a success rate in refining mid-to-high-grade potions, even surpassing that of ordinary master pharmacists.
Phyllis probed a piece of magical metal intently, beads of sweat oozing from the tip of her nose, but she didn't have time to wipe it off. At this time, she was twisting the material with four fingers in a careful gesture, and the movements were gentle, as if she were caressing a delicate flower. Each of the four fingers emits a faint glow, which is blue, yellow, cyan, and red. The light trembled slightly on her fingers, flickering on and off, as if four magic lamps of different colors had suddenly grown on the palm of her hand. This is a four-phase vibration scanning method, a very clever detection method, and Phyllis is only barely mastering, and she must be very focused to avoid mistakes. She is not very proficient in this detection method, and it may not be better to use it in the competition, so she did not use it rashly in the first two games. But this one is very important, and it is necessary to do everything possible to increase the attack power of the orc warriors, and the purity of the magic essence that is broken down is closely related to the increase in the strength of the enchantment. Therefore, Phyllis stubbornly used the four-phase vibration scanning method to detect the proportion of components of the magic material as much as possible, so as to improve the purity of the decomposition of the magic essence in the next step.
Kevin was solemnly confronted with a mass of semi-liquid metal, a cynical attitude that seemed to be the most attractive thing in the world. He appeared to be motionless, but in fact the mana in his body was working according to a certain pattern, and was emitting from his hands into the metal mass. The mana was filled with a strong aura of fire element, causing small bubbles to bulge, gradually grow, and crack open on the surface of the metal mass. As the bubbles rolled, the mass of metal slowly changed shape, gradually taking on the general shape of a fist glove. Under the effect of the earth-based mana, subtle adjustments were constantly made on the fist gloves, and the lines were either raised or concave, forming a mysterious formation. Normally, Kevin only needed less than ten minutes to get the gloves ready, but this time it took a full 17 minutes to hand the cooled gloves to Wendy next to him. In comparison, enchantment takes less time than it takes to make gloves, and Kevin has made the most of his time this time, apparently doing the best he can.
Wendy didn't immediately enchant the gloves after taking them, but closed her eyes and reached out two fingers to touch the surface of the gloves gently. Her fingers tapped and danced on the surface of the gloves like elves, moving their positions with a strange rhythm, a process in which the enchanter familiarized himself with the shape of the equipment and fine-tuned the enchantment model according to the different shapes. Normally, you don't need to adjust the enchantment model so carefully when performing a normal enchantment, as long as the appearance of the equipped item does not deviate too much, you can successfully enchant it. But the stakes are so high in the current game that there is no room for sloppiness, so it is natural to use all the resources you can. After groping silently like this for nearly ten minutes, Wendy's movements stopped, and two fine lights flashed in her eyes. The Hengjin Rod had appeared in her hand at some point, and gently touched the mouth of the bottle handed over by Phyllis, and the entire bottle of magic essence was brought out like a seed flying in the wind, following the Hengjin Rod quickly and steadily drawing lines composed of mana. The Hengjin rod did not directly touch the gloves, but every time Wendy drew a line, a faint light would appear on the gloves, which was the trace left by Wendy's enchanted mana on the surface of the equipment. Until her movements stopped, the fist glove suddenly shone brightly, as if there were countless irregular six-pointed stars superimposed in disorder, and the fist glove first appeared on the mysterious and strange enchantment composition of the clothes, and then disappeared as the light dissipated. Only the purple light emitted from the surface of the gloves can be seen that it has been successfully enchanted with the most useful and powerful power of the fighter class.
Compared to the previous two games, Darko's movements are more swift and the speed of copying is also maximized. At the beginning of the competition, Leah helped Dakko sharpen the magic ink he needed as quickly as possible, and Dakko immediately began to copy the glyphs. According to the normal process, Leah should have assisted Otto and refined the potion first. This point fell into the eyes of professional inscriptionists, who had already guessed the general idea of the Dakko team, which caused some discussion on a small scale.
In the main stand, several high-level officials of the Alchemy Guild also discovered Darko's move and focused their eyes on the past.
Victoria was a little surprised and said, "It looks like Team Darko wants to work on the glyphs, but can they complete three glyphs in such a short time?"
"It's not impossible, it's just a little difficult, and it's bound to compromise quality because of the pursuit of speed. Maxi frowned and said strangely, "Their opponents are not very strong, they are even lower in the ranking than Merkelt in the last game, why should they face it with such a back-to-back posture?"
"I'm afraid there are off-the-field reasons for this, right?" Walker looked at Lesotho thoughtfully, with an unnatural expression. If it is really forced by off-the-counter factors, then I am afraid that nine times out of ten it is inseparable from the Gafreshak family, which runs the gambling business.
Lesotho, on the other hand, remained expressionless, as if the spectators were watching the game intently. Raymond was very happy, with an exaggerated smile on his face, and from time to time he stroked his beard, obviously ready to watch a good show.
At this time, Darko was faced with a piece of parchment made of dark red animal skin, with black-brown longitudinal lines on it, indicating that it was taken from an extremely dangerous creature, the fifth-order demonic beast Earth Walking Dragon. Due to its excellent sturdy texture and good magical conductivity, it is one of the standard materials for copying large glyphs, which is exactly what Dakko is about to do.
After a long period of training, Dakko was able to automatically block out the surrounding noise, and in a short time he had already copied the first glyph and killed it. Next came the bloodthirsty glyph, which took shape one by one in Darko's intense and focused copying, and when the whole lit up with a shimmering and flowing magical light, the glyph had succeeded. Darko didn't even have time to look at the results, his eyes glanced at the magic clock and immediately began to copy the next glyph again. The spectators who were watching the game were shocked, they didn't expect Darko to want to copy three engravings in thirty minutes. This is exactly what Darko and the others have come up with, and they plan to work on the glyph, which is the most powerful item for orc warriors. Several other enhancements, due to the rules of the game and the carrying capacity of the orcs, cannot rely on numbers, with the exception of Glyphs. However, copying three glyphs in half an hour will inevitably result in a slightly inferior quality of individual glyphs due to the pursuit of speed, but this is also unavoidable. After all, three glyphs with slightly less fineness play a far greater role than two glyphs with excellent refinement.
Darko did not hesitate to devote himself to the transcription of the third inscription, but when he realized the time he had just seen, his heart sank. Copying three glyphs in half an hour was already the limit for him, and he had to finish one in an average of nine minutes for the rest of the time, except for the first two minutes when Leah was grinding the ink. However, the time he saw just now was already 22 minutes, and there were only 8 minutes left for him, and what he needed to complete was the most difficult of the three glyphs.
In the first few days of practice, Darko was not able to complete three glyphs in half an hour every time, depending on his performance, form, and even a little luck. Therefore, this strategy of the Darko team is only to strengthen the orc warriors as much as possible in order to defeat the opponent in a short time. If you can copy three engravings in their entirety, then it is naturally the best, and if you don't have enough time, you can still only inlay two engravings to participate in the war, which is not too bad. But Darko himself did not think so, he knew best, because he was in a hurry and he had reduced the accuracy of the glyphs, which affected the output. If he couldn't finish only two engravings in half an hour, then it would be in vain, and it would be better to follow the usual rhythm, so he had to finish the third engraving.
However, the actual situation did not improve in the slightest because of Darko's determination, the first two engravings consumed too much energy from Darko, he was already a little tired from maintaining such a high level of tension, but the time left for him was less and less. Darko only felt that his heartbeat was affecting the limbs that he had written, making it difficult for those circuits that should have been completed smoothly. The noise made by the spectators in the stands of the Colosseum seemed to become extremely sharp at this point, as if they had turned into spikes into Darko's ears, and his speed was further affected.
This won't work!! He knew that if he continued like this, the third glyph would not be completed. You have to be calm, and you have to do it at a faster pace according to the rhythm of the practice! While Darko thinks like this, he still does not dare to slow down the movement of the next stroke, and when he copies a circuit, his eyes are already looking at the location of the next circuit, and he is outlining the direction of the next stroke in his mind.
Under such pressure, and for some reason, even Darko himself didn't realize that his eyes were gradually dyed with a layer of blue light. When the causal connection appeared in Darko's sight, he was also slightly surprised, in the past, the pupil of cause and effect had always been used by him to stimulate the bloodline, but for some reason this time it was turned on autonomously. Even so, Dacko didn't have the energy to think about the meaning of those causal connections, and the priority was to complete the glyph as soon as possible. Soon, however, Darko had to ignore these causal connections, and he was surprised and surprised at first, and then shocked.
In Darko's eyes, the causal connections were roughly in the shape of magic circuits, connected to the blank parchment, and consistent with the glyph he was about to copy. Wherever his magic pen went, the causal connection in that position would slowly fade, as if he had completed his guidance and had retired. Darko suddenly perked up, at this time, the factor that affected his speed of copying the glyph was the judgment of the position between the various circuits, which was directly related to whether the glyph could be copied successfully, if the causal connection could guide the location of the next glyph, then he only needed to control and stabilize the mana output with one mind, and the speed would naturally increase significantly.
Darko still had some concerns, after all, he had never used this method, and it was unknown why the causal connection could form the pattern of the magic circuit. But he didn't dwell on it for too long, and immediately copied it according to the guidance of the causal connection, just because time was running out. Rather than finishing the third glyph at both ends of the rat here, it is better to put it together.
Darko immediately settled down, completely stopped thinking about the position of each circuit, and focused on maintaining a stable output of mana. The causal connection is indeed guided in this way, fading away as the nib is about to be reached, and slowly emerging in the next loop of copying. It wasn't until the entire engraving was copied that the causal connections disappeared completely, as if they had never been there.
When Darko lifted the tip of the pen with a trembling hand, he saw that it was Phyllis and the others who had already completed the corresponding work, and they were all watching around him. They didn't seem to get too close to each other as if they were afraid of affecting Dako, and it wasn't until the transcription was completed that they all showed expressions of excitement and delight, apparently all sweating just now. Farther away, the chief referee's voice rang out, announcing the end of time.
