Chapter 80: A New Beginning
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you, Master Kel'thugad......" Khadgar said with some caution.
But listening to his tone, I didn't feel the honor at all.
And Kel'thugad simply paid no heed to his rhetoric:
"Give you two minutes to change into your robes and pick up your arms at the same time!" He said coldly.
With that, he turned and walked away.
"Carlin, you say if we don't do what he says?" Khadgar winked at Carlin and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know...... But you can try, I bet you're going to be miserable! ”
"That's right!" Khadgar nodded, and quickly pulled out a violet robe from his luggage, with a diamond-shaped emblem engraved on his chest.
Carlin also changed into his mage's robes and picked up his staff at the same time.
Kel'thugad's figure reappeared, but Carlin was surprised to find that his robes were dark blue!
Khadgar was the first to voice Karin's doubts: "Master Kel'thugad, you are already six rings?" ”
Kel'thugad glanced at Khadgar coldly and nodded: "I have already reached the sixth ring five years ago, and as long as I want, I can break through the seventh ring at any time now!" It's just that I'm not satisfied with my current self, so I don't want to leave the teachings of Mentor Antonidas! ”
Even Khadgar was taken aback at this time.
With the character shown by Kel'thugad, there will certainly be no element of boasting or showing off...... What he said was certainly the truth.
But you know, his young face looks like he is in his twenties at the end.
"...... your age," Khadgar asked weakly.
Asking a man's age is not a very offensive question! So Kel'thugad, despite his not very good-looking face, replied: "24 years old three months ago!" ”
24-year-old, Master of the Seven Rings!
"Wow!" Khadgar exclaimed.
And Carlin couldn't help but laugh and cry.
"Are all the monsters in this castle except for themselves?"
But that's right! One is the future Scourge Legion "Chief Lich"; And the other is the future Azeroth "Savior Mage", oh no "Savior Elemental...... What an interesting story!
It's also a very demoralizing story.
……
Kel'thugad took the two younger ones to the Violet Castle's training grounds.
"Your weapons?" Looking at Carlin's staff and Khadgar's wand, he frowned.
The price of any good wand, wand, or even a dagger or single-edged sword with a magic bonus, is very high. Khadgar's parents are just ordinary civilians in Stormwind, and even though they have shown amazing talent since childhood, their financial situation is still quite touching; Although Carlin has the support of his family, he is slightly better than Khadgar in this regard, but after all, he has no other financial resources in Dalaran alone, so he is not willing to bear that sky-high price.
"These should have been thrown in the trash a long time ago!" Kel'thugad commented disdainfully: "Wait for me in a moment! ”
A few minutes later, Kel'thugad returned to the training ground, holding two staffs in his hands and throwing them to the two mages here.
"Let's make do with this first!"
Carlin picked up the staff and observed it: the entire staff was made of brown fir wood, and the top of the staff was a palm-sized ruby!
"This is Jordan's staff?" Khadgar exclaimed, "I remember it was worth up to 100 gold coins!" ”
"It looks like it was made by a staff maker named 'Jordan'!" Kel'thugad nodded: "It's just a hundred gold coins, it's a relatively inferior staff!" ”
Karin gripped the fir handle of the staff, and a very friendly feeling came from his hand, as if he was invisibly strengthening his strength...... It's so much better than the staff he snatched from a mage named Doon before!
"Now, release a one-ring defensive spell, 'Magic Shield'!" Kel'thugad ordered.
"'Magic Shield'? Such a simple spell! Khadgar waved his staff casually in disdain!
A faint magical shield appeared beside him.
"Humph!" Kel'thugad sneered and waved his hand casually.
The entire shield shattered, and Khadgar was knocked to the ground in an instant.
"I only used the power of the four rings!" Kel'thugad said coldly.
"Why?" The flirtatious expression on Khadgar's face disappeared all at once, and instead turned into a serious look.
"Practice a thousand times, and then tell me what you think!"
"A thousand times?" Khadgar's serious look disappeared again, and he cried and said, "Can you have less?" ”
Kel'thugad just glanced at him with his gaze.
"Sorry...... I'm sorry......" Khadgar suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and denied it again and again.
"Fifteen hundred times!"
……
"Release it!" Kel'thugad turned his gaze to Carlin.
Carlin nodded, waving his staff.
"Compared to him, it's a lot better in terms of control!" Kel'thugad nodded slightly: "I saw the 'magic shield' you released in reverse during the battle yesterday, and it was just a simple self-exploration from the thesis of Mentor Antonidas, and you released it quite well, but overall, the problem is still very big!" ”
Carlin nodded, and the "Imprisonment Technique" produced by reversing the release of the "Magic Shield" was invented by the Archmage Antonidas; And as a student of his for many years, Kel'thugad must know this better than he does!
"Is your staff heavy?" Kel'thugad asked an unrelated question.
Carlin shook his head.
Kel'thugad waved his hand slightly, and a shield slowly enveloped the staff!
"There's a misunderstanding of your understanding of 'Confinement Technique'!" He said slowly, "The Imprisonment Technique is not simply to compress the volume of the magic shield to kill and injure the enemies inside......"
Then, almost instantly, the staff in the shield was reduced to countless pieces!
"What is this?" Carlin's eyes widened.
"Instead, drain the air from the mana shield, and let the enemies inside lose their structure from the inside!"
Karin's expression became very serious...... It is no wonder that the "confinement technique" he used was far less powerful than that mentioned by Antonidas in his paper, and it turned out that he had fallen into a misunderstanding in the theory of spells.
"Try it!" Kel'thugad pointed to Khadgar, who was practicing hard there:
"Fifteen hundred times, the same!"
Carlin smiled, and he bowed to Kel'thugad very seriously, "Thank you, Kel'thugad...... Brother! ”
Kel'thugad's cold face was also a rare smile.
It seems that he is very satisfied with this title.
