Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Mechanic
The center of the explosion, like a nuclear explosion, radiated out of a huge crater in a ring, and it was not until thirty meters away that plants began to appear, and sunlight could easily shine into the crater.
The fierce flames in the pit were still burning, but they were absorbed by a thirty-meter-tall octopus waving its tentacles in the center, and with each wisp of flames absorbed, the big octopus became much more staring.
After a long time, after the flames were completely absorbed by the big octopus, two runes faintly circulated on the surface of the big octopus's body, and the runes exuded a brilliant light, like a glowing jellyfish in the depths of the sea.
"Roar!" The big octopus roared suddenly, and the body composed of magic power collapsed and collapsed in an instant, instantly forming a two-meter spherical shape like a black hole, but in just a few seconds, the magic power had completely disappeared, and the spherical shape collapsed, revealing the sturdy young man covered in red fruit inside, who was Rhodes who was in the center of the explosion.
"Is this person one of the top 10 freshmen at the War College? It's just a madman, and he actually blew himself up in the freshman exam. Rod couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Looking down at the body, the big sword and the enchanted whole body armor were gasified and disappeared as expected, and the inner lining was also vaporized without accident, and the whole body was naked, only the right hand was tightly clenched together.
Rhodes opened his right hand, it was a badge, this badge had emitted a strong magical aura since just now, which made it directly immune to the flames just now, and he only had time to hold this badge in the shockwave, and the other badges had been blown away by the storm.
There are no clothes that make Rod move his body a little uneasily, his mind moves, and he instantly activates illusions, his body changes vaguely, and a piece of clothing appears on the surface of his body, although it is only an illusion, but it makes Rod feel at ease.
Looking at the physical attributes, in order to resist the explosion and the shock wave just now, he temporarily strengthened the physical attributes, and increased them to the maximum value that could be reached so far in one go.
Constitution 20
Not surprisingly, the physique attribute has turned an irreducible gray, and even if he invests energy, he has no movement, but thanks to the demon heart, his physique has exceeded the limit of humans, reaching 20 points that are absolutely impossible for pure-blooded humans to achieve.
Of course, since the stat is increased by 5 points, the strong skin also changes.
Strong Skin (+1/Intermediate Tier 7)
Immunity to attack has reached the level of +1, in other words, the Kingdom Officer's Greatsword is no longer able to break through Rhodes' body surface defenses.
Gain means giving, and without getting energy replenishment, his energy has plummeted to 700 points, but fortunately it is not completely without additional gains.
The flame just now came from a spell, and after Rhodes absorbed and transformed, even if the transformation process was lost, his magic power increased by 0.5 again, and the total amount of mana had reached 2.5S, and there was still a lot of space inside the demonized human heart, which was enough to hold more mana.
At this moment, Rhodes turned his head with a feeling, and a rustling sound came from behind, and the magic imprint left on Alyssa and Lena in advance was immediately triggered. Sure enough, Alyssa and Lena ran out of the forest on a giant tiger and a mechanical bear, respectively, with Alyssa still holding her clothes.
"Rod!" Both of them looked at Rhodes worriedly, and when they found that there were no obvious injuries, they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"You don't have to worry, I'm fine." Rod smiled warmly, based on demonic knowledge, giving sincerely, and after a long period of development, Alyssa began to try to accept him openly and sincerely, and become a close friend who was more important than a friend.
However, he didn't get an answer from the two, Lena covered her face with her hands, and Alyssa let out a popping laugh and laughed as she threw her clothes to Rod.
Rhodes lowered his head suspiciously, and the illusion was not solved: "You two seem to be used to life in the jungle, and the spell resistance is constantly on. Knowing that the illusion had no effect, Rod directly revoked the means of covering his ears and stealing the bell, and put on his clothes generously under Alyssa's direct gaze and Lena's peeking through his fingers.
After getting dressed and just about to tease, Lena and Alyssa looked up in the same direction at the same time, and Rhodes also looked in that direction with a sense of feeling.
"Someone with a lot of curiosity is coming here. The trainees who dare to come after the explosion must have something special, and it is best to avoid conflicts, and if not, it is best to get them out of the game to reduce the unexpected factor. ”
As soon as Rod finished speaking, Lena and Alyssa were already hiding. Rhodes uses both illusion and phantom spell runes, with Rhodes' phantom appearing in another location and his main body using illusion to become invisible.
Three emaciated boys rushed out from there, they wore the badge of the Wizarding Academy on their chests, goggles on their faces, but they were wearing full-body armor-like equipment, but they had a more technological feel compared to full-body armor, and they were followed by three mechanical bears, which were much smaller than Lena's mechanical bears.
The attributes are also clearly seen by Rhodes, except for their superb intelligence, their attributes are all less than 10 points, which is very strange, because this is more like an attribute that ordinary people have, rather than an attribute that candidates have.
The three of them were vigilant when they saw Rod, and when they saw that Rod's words didn't mean to speak, the leader said: "Are you also here to investigate the situation here, so are we, we are very interested in the explosion and the giant octopus just now, if you don't mind, we hope to be able to collect data, and you can take the loot as you like." ”
After speaking, the leader quietly looked at the location of Rod's body, and the other two also looked at the place where Alyssa and Lena were hiding.
"Huh!" If there was originally a feeling of middle two for the three people's clothing, now they are impressed by the three people's clothing, and the three of them have obviously discovered the location of their own team members.
"Be careful, if I'm not mistaken, those three are three of the top ten freshmen in the Magic Academy this year, but not as famous as a few others, their profession is mechanic." Lena walked straight out of hiding, and the mechanical bear followed her, and the three magicians almost simultaneously took on a defensive look.
"Eh~, Xiao Lena is so powerful, she actually knows such information." Alyssa jumped out of hiding unconcerned, hugged Lena at once, and completely ignored the three magicians.
"Because I was originally going to enter the Magic Academy, but the special academy can be free of tuition, I will temporarily change my mind." Lena, whose head was buried in her chest, let out a weak whine.
The three of them glanced at each other, and the leader pressed the button on the goggles without a trace, and after a few seconds, his complexion suddenly changed drastically, and then suddenly returned to his original face, the three of them glanced at each other, their eyes revealed excitement and fighting intent, and Rod looked at this person's face changing technique with interest.
"You seem to have noticed that we are also three of the top ten freshmen in the Elite Academy, and I was at the center of the explosion just now, this is not my place, you want to investigate as you please, but you seem to have changed your mind."
Rod looked at the aura of the drastic changes in the bodies of the three demon guides, from the initial exploration and curiosity, to the end all turned into excitement and fighting spirit, and immediately knew the decision of these three people.
"Although it is despicable to say this, and there is also a suspicion of taking advantage of people's danger, I still want to say this, even if we take advantage of people's danger, we want to fight with you fighting geniuses to prove that our path is not wrong."
There was no exploration of knowledge on the faces of the three magicians, and all that remained was the ambition of coveting the three of Rhodes, and the aura of violent tumbling was so strong.
"We have no talent, neither physical gifts, nor are we natural spellcasters, and without your proud talent, you would not even be able to reach the level of magic beyond the reach of humans......."
Rod's eyes flashed: "Interesting...... actually saw through my demonic power, although it didn't seem to be accurate. ”
“…… However, we still want to prove that even if we don't have physical talent, even if we are not natural spellcasters, we can still defeat you combat geniuses with equipment."
