Chapter 22: Bad Day
Until Jarrow left, many people in the hall still did not come to their senses: what happened to the world? How can there be such a strong newcomer?
Whether Jarrow had really used some kind of powerful magic item to counteract the flames, everyone dared not make a conclusion. But one thing is for sure, he's no slouch!
Many people speculated that he must have some kind of talent that is perfectly matched with fire magic, otherwise he wouldn't be so calm!
Only a small number of people in the hall had seen some clues about this. Jarrow didn't even seem to use magic, just passively bearing the attack of fire, but in fact, although the strange magic fluctuation was very weak, it was still captured by someone with a heart.
It's like a female magician sitting alone in the corner at this moment, this woman is tightly wrapped all over, and even wears a white mask on her face. When Jarrow was competing with Buck earlier, she was watching from afar: "What an interesting guy, if you have the chance, you will have to contact him another day!" β
At this point, Abby can't say anything. Buck had just done a lot of energy, but he couldn't let Jarrow fall, and even if he complained about it, he wouldn't blame him.
After all, this is not his problem, all because of the weirdness of this person: "Okay, don't be bitter!" Seeing how hard you worked just now, I will give you the two bottles of intermediate exorcism powder that I just got in my hands, I hope you can make good use of it! β
"Uh, senior, I didn't get things done, how can I.."
"Take it if you want to, don't talk so much nonsense! Remember, he's my prey, so don't beat him! β
β.. All right! Senior, my partner is still waiting for me, and I lost my company first! β
After the episode, the hall was not less crowded, but more crowded. When Buck left, Abby still stood there and thought, "That cloak shouldn't have much resistance to fire, what the hell is that kid?" Damn, it's all at this time, why hasn't the old man shown up yet? β
Regarding this farce, many people think that Jarrow easily blocked the fire, is this really the case?
Shortly after leaving the guild, Jarrow felt unwell. If it weren't for the good recovery in the past two days, it is estimated that I would have to go to the hospital for a few more days.
As for why he is not afraid of fire, it is not the reason for the cloak, nor is it the relationship of the curse.
He had thought about how to deal with it from the beginning, and the moment the flames were about to hit, his whole body was covered in an extremely thin layer of black flame barrier. And when the fire subsided, he withdrew his magic.
It seems simple, but it is a delicate job that consumes a lot of Jarrow's mind. He hadn't practiced much magic, and when he saw that Buck could unleash fireballs without chanting, he knew the importance of practice.
Buck's five moves, each move was very strong, especially the last two, if he hadn't strengthened the Black Flame Barrier, he would have been burned by the flames. But it was his reinforcement of magic that made people notice the difference.
Jarrow didn't notice this, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he took the 1 gold coin and turned to leave. Now staying in the teahouse, in addition to wanting to rest, the main thing is thinking about a few things.
The Black Flame Technique and the Black Flame Barrier are indeed very handy, but in the face of Barker's indiscriminate bombardment, he is a little powerless, and he needs more powerful magic.
It's a pity that he hasn't seen the old man yet, and about the cultivation of improving his magic power in the book, he has tried, but he has not succeeded, and he needs someone to solve his doubts.
Even the apprentice who was not yet a D-class made him feel tricky, and he desperately wanted to get stronger!
Jarrow knew he was an outlier, and from what had happened before, he knew that it would be difficult for him to get along in the city without some disguise.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, when he had rested, he decided to go to the magic house to buy a decorative staff. Ordinary models are definitely not applicable, and if you pick it up, it will be destroyed immediately, and it is estimated that it will be blacklisted by the magic house.
Thinking of the short staff in Abby's hand, he decided to start from here, but he couldn't really start it, he had to really hold it in his hand, and he couldn't touch it directly. With 1 gold coin from Abina, I believe I can find a staff that makes do with it...
Compared to Jarrow, the situation of the others is very bad, among which Charles is the worst, he has just entered the training ground for less than half an hour, and he was carried out: "Really, I told you, you are still too weak now, and you want to be strong.. There has to be a limit! Someone, carry him to the infirmary! β
Honglian's situation is similar, but fortunately, she didn't pass out, but was just unilaterally beaten by the beautiful tutor. When the people watching around saw her embarrassed look, they all laughed at her for not knowing the height of the sky.
As a party, Honglian was indeed embarrassed, but she was not angry, but very happy: "It's too slow!" You're reacting a lot slower than you were at the beginning, so that's your limit, right? β
"When you first joined the Guild, I said that the most important rule for the Assassins... That is, you must never give your back to the enemy. See if you're still like this. Well? β
The beautiful tutor didn't use any weapons, and whenever Honglian, who was struggling to stand up, wanted to attack, the back of her neck would be attacked by the mentor. But this time, she dodged a random blow from her mentor, and even launched a counterattack.
But unfortunately, none of the people who can become mentors are weak, and as soon as the counterattack was easily dodged, the red lotus immediately fell, and the boring farce ended: "The last blow was okay, but the reaction was not fast enough." If there is enough force, the blow just now. Maybe it can hurt me! β
"Little girl, it's good to have momentum, but don't take yourself too seriously! Now you're too weak to surround these people.. Any one of them can beat you. But don't be too discouraged, I'm optimistic about you. Okay, I'll take you to heal first. β
Compared to others, the situation on the Xiu side is a bit dull, that is, repeatedly shooting arrows with a bow. It's a pity that he practiced for more than two hours, not to mention that he could achieve nine shots out of ten shots 70 meters away, he was reluctant to even hit six shots out of ten shots 50 meters away.
Eventually, the training was terminated due to a strained arm muscle: "Alright, that's it for today's exercise. Go back and rest well, and remember to come back tomorrow! β
"Yes, Mentor, thank you for your patience in guiding me! I promise.."
"Pretty words. Let's wait until you do! β
Alice's situation is relatively better, her mentor is only instructing her to practice sword skills, but even if it is just sword practice, she is not much better: "It's too stiff, and some movements are not in place, you need to hone it... There are many, many more! β
"Want to get stronger? Want to learn from me? When you meet my requirements, I will seriously consider this matter! β
"I'm a little busy, you can go back and practice slowly, now hurry up and wash your face!" "Thank you!"
Today was a terrible day, with all five of them suffering varying degrees of setbacks, but each of them did not stop there.
Just when Charles woke up after treatment, in a private mansion in Tagera, the old man who Jarrow wanted to see was talking to a man through the curtain: "I told you, he is a young man that the old man likes, you don't beat his idea, otherwise don't blame the old man.."
"Alas, old sir, no matter what, I am the lord of Takira, and I have the right."
"Hmph, don't put up a fight in front of the old man, you broken city lord.. It doesn't work in front of the old man! β
"Uh, well! Since he is a member of the Magic Guild, he will do as the old gentleman says, but you have to pay for the hospitalization of those imps... Pay first, right? Not much, that's it.. 25 gold coins only! β
"What? 25 gold coins? You bastard don't do this! Hmph, isn't it.. Isn't it just 25 gold coins, the old man is not short of money, take it! Remember, he is the old man's apprentice, whoever dares to fight his idea, the old man will be in a hurry! β
