Chapter 278: Chessboard World (2)
A lot of times, people have the idea of 'even if there's a silver lining, try to gamble in order to be number one!' Such a mentality.
To put it nicely, this is called having a fighting spirit, and to say it is ugly, this is a fluke psychology similar to that of gamblers.
People with this mentality only see the success of 1 in 10,000, and ignore the remaining 9,999 in 10,000.
In many cases, the person who can control this fluke psychology will become the winner of the worst.
"These are the words of the dean before leaving." Kamiyu, who was sitting on the broomstick, said with a serious face, ignoring his voice, which had become strange due to the Doppler effect.
"Since you're just copying the teacher's words, don't put that on that expression." Alyssa complained a little weakly.
The practical assessment of the appraisal will not be the kind of assessment that must be fought for to the death, and if you become the first, at most it will only have an advantage in the most difficult evaluation.
Therefore, the chessboard world world strategy that Sivi formulated for Alyssa at the beginning was not to compete for the first goal.
And the possibility of Elisa's combination wanting to be the first is not high.
The results of the magic theory test do not objectively indicate whether a magician is strong or not, but unless there is a problem with talent, a knowledgeable magician will definitely have the strength corresponding to his knowledge.
The students who are eligible to participate in the appraisal are all elites, and they are sure to have relatively good magical talents. In other words, most of the students who were able to score high in the theory assessment were stronger than those with low scores.
At present, all the students of the upper academy have passed the assessment with high scores and are in the first echelon, and there are some mid-level magicians who are far more than ordinary students.
Obviously, that kind of team full of strong people is not something that Alyssa can deal with now - no matter how Adric Academy opens, after all, they have only been enrolled for less than four months......
In fact, the plan set by Sylvy is to use the power of the flying broom to get out of the third and the fourth and fifth echelons that are about to enter in one fell swoop - obviously. There will definitely be all kinds of brawls when the large forces are mixed together, and the current Alyssa and they don't have the ability to win or even protect themselves in that kind of brawl.
The strength of the first and second echelons is outstanding, except for those who plan to ambush the teams behind. The speed of travel is also far higher than that of the third, fourth and fifth echelons, if Alyssa wants to keep pace with the first echelon, or even surpass the first echelon, it will definitely cause the fire of those teams with the goal of winning - these people's attacks are not as good as the third echelon, even if they can't knock Alyssa and them down. I guess it's okay to knock out two or three.
To do this, after distancing themselves from the next echelons and approaching the first echelon to a certain distance. Alyssa and the others will abandon the broomstick as a handy tool and begin to return to the ground, aiming to collect freedom badges and be wary of sneak attacks by other teams before heading to the finish line.
What must be said is that it is a combat plan that does not seek meritorious service but seeks no faults.
It's just that before the plan was implemented, Alyssa and the others were already in trouble - a huge lizard-clawed monster that looked a bit like the Aeolus pterosaur and could glide in the sky had its sights on them, which were very conspicuous in the sky.
"Unleash the magic and then evade it!" Alyssa gouges out several balls of white water behind her, which freeze as soon as they hit the object.
The rest of the people, except for the earth elemental magic user Tannis, did not make a move. They all unleashed their own offensive magic, but the weaker magic didn't hurt at all when it hit the monsters, and the more powerful ones were several levels more mobile than Alyssa's, and the monsters easily dodged.
"No way! Let's go straight to the crash landing! Seeing that the attack was ineffective, Kamiyu immediately made a decision.
"There's a forest down there, so you'll hit a tree if you make a crash landing!"
Dorothy glanced at the environment beneath her feet. Immediately shouted.
"It's better than pooping as a monster!"
Kamiyu looked at the giant beast that made a difficult move in the sky, swooping towards several people like a swallow catching insects, gritted his teeth and directly pressed the top of his broom, and rushed into the sea of trees below.
The others could only descend with him.
After hitting an unknown number of branches in the canopy, several people fell to the humus ground in embarrassment, and a pile of half-withered leaves fell from the tree.
Fortunately, the squad leader-level standard robe has its own defensive attributes, although they were all scraped by the branches, but none of them were really injured and bloody.
"That guy is here again!"
Not even giving a few people time to recuperate, Alice screamed as she pointed to the sight peeking out of the cracks in the canopy—the beast swooping down from the sky once more.
"It's okay, don't be afraid of it on the ground! Rock Spear Array! ”
Tannis's fat little face turned red, and he poked his wand to the ground with all his might, and dozens of huge rock spears pierced the not too thick humus, rising from the ground, forming a needle-like defense around everyone, and at the same time, Alyssa also activated ice magic, covering the surface of the rock spear with a solid layer of ice, reinforcing the rock spear while also making it grow fine ice barbs......
Seeing that those prey that reached the mouth suddenly turned into hedgehogs that had no way to eat, the giant beast could only howl angrily twice, and left unwillingly after circling the sky a few times.
"That thing is definitely used by the Mage Guild to hinder all students who are able to fly, and forbid us from flying, right? Who in heaven can beat that thing......"
Looking at the beast that had disappeared into the sky, Kamiyu wiped his sweat and complained.
"Anyway, the crisis is over, Theo, I'm sorry for you." Alyssa breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Theo, "Investigate and see if there are any people from other houses around." ”
The little girl with her cat-eared hair ornament nodded, closed her eyes and chanted a spell softly, causing the wind elements around her to ripple like waves.
After a while, she opened her eyes and shook her head, indicating that there was no one around.
"Over there, the wind elemental reacts strangely."
But then she pointed in a direction to indicate that there was something there.
After discussing it with a few people, they decided to go in that direction to observe it first.
After walking for more than ten minutes, they were greeted by a wooden hut - no, not so much a wooden hut as a house made of a tree...... (To be continued.) )
