Although the real-life Thunderbird is not as divine as its admirers believe, its power is not inferior to that of a dragon, and it is indeed a being at the top of the food chain.

The Hungry Ptarmigan is the most fearsome predator in the desert, hovering over the battlefield with thunderclouds, and when it spots its prey, it swings its wings and whips up a storm of sand on the ground, obscuring its vision and swooping down to launch a deadly attack with its sharp claws and beak.

Thunderbird's innate magic is more threatening than its hand-to-hand combat abilities, and whenever it opens its eyes filled with electric light, it summons a dense stream of lightning from the clear sky to bombard enemies.

Born from the origin of wind and thunder, this magical beast can unleash Thunder Summoning, Cloud Mist, and Roar at will, and can also perform Thunderstorm, Advanced Roar, Sandstorm, and Heavy Mist 3 times a day.

Don't think that the Thunderbird can only call the wind and rain in the air, Roland had encountered the Thunderbird in the game before the crossing, and successfully trapped it on the ground with a trap net, after which he and his fellow players fell to the blood mold. The thunderbird that was tied like a rice dumpling actually successfully performed the 8-ring "earthquake technique" in the desert, burying itself deep in the yellow sand and at the same time pulling Roland and them to be buried together!

After taking a deep look at the Thunderbird, Roland confirmed that this guy was a bigger circle than the Thunderbird he had attempted to hunt in the game before the crossing, and was obviously a more difficult "evolutionary species" to deal with.

The fifth trialist to arrive at the meeting place on the "Wind Ladder" was Roland's old acquaintance, the "Fat Fox" with squinting eyes, and a Level 14 Master of the School of Change.

Fawkes was still wearing the yellow robe, and the ornate staff inlaid with the rare gem "Crimson Tears" in his hand did not quite match his image of an "office worker".

After Nikita refreshed her knowledge of staff making, Roland now knows that the gems set in a staff are more than just beautiful ornaments. Different gems have a buffing effect on spells of different schools, such as the "Crimson Tears" set on the staff in the hand of the "Fat Fox", which can increase the cast level of all the Mutation spells stored in the staff by an additional cast! It can be inferred from this that Fawkes's staff must have stored more than one Variation spell.

In the same way, Platon's staff inlaid with star sapphires can increase the power of the Protective School's spells, Yefim's staff inlaid with deep lazuli can strengthen spell arcane, and the dazzling jade on Vera's staff is very beneficial for enhancing the spells of confusion control.

As for Nikita, although she is not a mage specializing in the Plastic Energy School, this time she is participating in the trial on behalf of the Plastic Energy School to which her father belongs, and the staff she made herself is infused with 6 spells, most of which are plastic energy systems, and the large ruby inlaid on the staff can significantly increase the power of the plastic energy spell.

Fox had just rushed back to Beacon Hill from the railway construction site this morning to participate in the trial, and in a hurry, he was sweating profusely, and hurriedly walked into the square with his staff on his shoulder, and saw a tall and tall young man on the opposite side who was smiling and waving at him.

"Your Highness Roland, meet again!"

"Mr. Fawkes, I arrived a day before you, and I met Master Anatoly yesterday, and he takes you very seriously as a protégé." Roland greeted Fox with a smile and hugged the "fat fox" warmly.

"I'm ashamed, I've been on the construction site these days, and this morning the teacher sent a text message to remind me that there was such a thing as a trial, and I hurried back, and I didn't have time to prepare."

Nikita sneered and teased, "Senior Brother Fawkes, you have such a big heart! ”

Fox laughed and said nonchalantly: "I'm a more tacky person, I prefer to participate in big projects than to improve my personal cultivation realm, and carve my name on the monument to the completion of the project, of course, it's also a pleasure to make a little money by the way." ”

"Senior Brother Fawkes, you have such a good relationship with Roland, we are not outsiders, are we?" Miss Mage blinked, her smile revealing wisdom.

Fox pretended to be at a loss: "What do you mean by this, we are both under the door of Beacon Mountain, and our senior brothers and sisters are not outsiders?" Oh! I guessed it, junior sister, you want to be the prince and concubine of the Kolas Kingdom, so you want to ask me to say more good things about you in front of His Royal Highness Roland, right? It's a pity that I really don't know what your strengths are, gentleness and kindness or something are too ordinary, right? ”

"Dead fatty! What nonsense are you talking about! Nikita stomped her foot in shame, "That's not what I meant!" ”

"Then make it clear to your face, so that I don't have to guess." Fox said with a grin.

"I want to pull you along with the team." Nikita changed her serious expression, "The rules do not prohibit trialists from cooperating against the enemies on the island, in the usual trials, few people choose to cooperate because of the lack of trust between each other, our situation is very different, Roland is the basis of mutual trust between you and me, you are Roland's friend, I don't think it is good for Roland's face to be an enemy of you before reaching the final testing ground, vice versa......"

"On the contrary, junior sister, you are the girlfriend of His Royal Highness Roland, and if you give me two more guts, you won't dare to make a move in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, even if you really want to fight, it will be an open duel in the final trial ground." Fox scrambled to say.

Roland couldn't help but laugh: "You don't need to take me too seriously, my role in the trial is just Nikita's henchman. ”

"That's not going to work!" "Fat Fox" shook his head and looked cowardly, "Our engineering mage group still has a large amount of construction money in the hands of Old Man Matvey!" In case you offend His Royal Highness the Prince, you can say hello to the old man and find a reason to withhold the money and not send it, and those boys under my command will not rebel against me! I don't dare to offend my own food and clothing parents if I offend anyone! ”

Roland pointed at the fat fox and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "Put away your little ghost thoughts, and promise that you won't miss a copper plate!" ”

Nikita shook her head and sighed: "The rising star of the dignified Beacon Mountain, the young man of the School of Change, why did he get into the money bag!" ”

Fawkes patted his forehead and laughed at himself: "The money bag that can stuff my big head will definitely hold a lot of gold." ”

Roland, Nikita, and Fawkes chatted hotly, and Platon, Yefim, and Vera next to them all changed their faces. Having to seriously consider the possibility of the two groups of Fawkes and Nikita joining forces, that would put them in an extremely disadvantageous position as a lone trialist.
