Along the quadrangular edge of the battle platform, a rectangular transparent light curtain stretches out to form an enclosed space, and the light curtain is maintained by energy charges, which can effectively prevent spells from spreading outside the stage, but the disadvantage is that the perception and aggregation of elements are hindered.

"It's going to blow your mind!"

Karin smiled confidently, and with a gentle wave of her hand, a staff was held in her hand out of thin air.

Space storage, sure enough, it is the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce.

Even Russell couldn't see how she pulled out the staff, so it could only be stored in a spatial object.

Space item, the product of the pinnacle of ancient alchemy, its main material is the Amenara ore from the Endless Star Boundary, commonly known as the space crystal, this kind of item is expensive, the smelting technology is missing, and it is difficult to find gold, and ordinary nobles cannot have it. And the girl in front of him can actually have one, which shows that her net worth is rich.

"Flower Flash!"

Kailin's staff was slightly tilted and held in her hand, and as she whispered, the oval gem at the top of the staff glowed with a thick pink halo, flowing around the staff like flowing water, and the magic light ball converged at the gem, and the flowers bloomed rapidly, and the five petals rotated.

Under her control, five petals turned into guiding beams one after the other, and they struck Russell at a very tricky angle.

The chant is much smoother, and the cast speed has increased...

Spell crosshair, increased bullet speed...

There has also been considerable progress in the mobilization, cohesion, and control of mana.

Issue... It's on that staff.

Russell didn't seem to move, but she didn't stop observing and perceiving for a moment, she had made great progress compared to the last time she watched Kailin cast spells, but most of this progress could not be attributed to herself, she just changed to a better staff.

The tip of the staff is inlaid with a pure magic stone, which allows her to better control her magic and amplify spells with magic that does not belong to her.

It's a fork in the road.

A mage, no, no professional should rely too much on alchemical items, at least until the mind of a professional matures.

Something like a magic tool can indeed quickly improve its combat effectiveness in a short period of time, but if you don't have a strong mind to control it, you will rely too much on the power that does not belong to you, and you will only neglect the training of your own ability, and in the long run, you will develop dependence, which will kill you.

These things are suitable for icing on the cake, and it is not good to pull out seedlings to help them grow.

"What should I do, let me teach you!"

In the face of the attacking beam, Russell was about to be hit without dodging or evading, and as soon as his mind moved, three cold rays of ice shot out, and the battle barrier could not form any obstacles to his casting, and the speed was as fast.

He then turned sideways at 90 degrees, his arms stretched out, and easily dodged attacks from his own side.

"I can't be surprised by this magnitude."

Russell's right hand was frosty, and after lingering in his hand for a long time, five beams of light that were identical to Kailin's rushed directly towards her from the front.

What to do...

Seeing that all five of her beams had been cracked, Kailin beat a drum in her heart, and her mouth quickly began to chant, but she had lost the calmness she had at the beginning, and in a panic, she barely supported a magic shield around her.

Five bolts of freezing light hit the shield one after another, freezing the entire shield into frost and shattering it with its magical power.

Kaylin's defenses were easily shattered by Russell, and his strength was well controlled without hurting Kaylin herself.

"I..."

Seeing that the shield shattered at the touch of a button, Kaylin looked at Russell embarrassedly. The words were so full, but they were easily defeated, she knew that she was not Russell's opponent, and now she was simply powerless to talk about the opponent.

She knew in her heart that he must have retained a lot of strength to avoid harming her.

"Do you know what the problem is?"

Russell had been brewing the spell in his hand for a long time, suppressing the speed and power of the spell in order to create an environment that was exactly the same as when he faced the flash, and for Kayline to imitate his resistance, but it was clear that Kaylin didn't understand what he meant.

In the face of a two-ring spell released by the bronze level, he could easily block it, why should it be a spell and a twist to dodge? It's just a demonstration.

When a mage fights, he must rely on defensive spells, but it is a battle between two people who are not far apart. Against a mage who is stronger than you, holding a shield in place is the equivalent of sitting still, as they can easily unleash devastating spells to break your defenses.

Therefore, even if it is a mage's battle, it is very necessary to coordinate and match the body to dodge, after all, the mage's battle relies on rhythm and cohesion, and it is inferior to other professions in terms of shooting speed and attack speed, just see who can seize the gap to dodge and disrupt the rhythm of the other party, and have the opportunity to grasp the initiative.

"My spells are so slow and inconsistent, you're right to hold up your shield, but what about the aftermath? Obviously, after blocking the first three paths, you can dodge if you feel that you can't continue to resist, so that your shield won't be shattered by me. ”

Russell pointed out her problem clearly.

Battles between mages actually involve a huge amount of calculations, you have to be able to analyze how much mana the enemy has poured into this spell, and how many mana you have to use in how many seconds to counteract it and make an effective counterattack, these need to be taken into account, which cannot be reflected in data, purely relying on perception and combat experience.

Most of the student mages have a problem, and that is their lack of experience. Although there have been actual combat exercises in the academy, but it is different after all, among the students, there is probably a bottom in their hearts, the battle is at most a little injured, everyone fights in the knowledge that there will be no trouble, there is no pressure at all. Once faced with a real battle, especially when you fall behind and are suppressed, you will become flustered, your mind will be blank, your adaptability will be insufficient, and your mentality will be too poor.

"But, I can't escape..."

Kailin felt that Russell's words made sense, but she felt that she couldn't do it, so she had to answer weakly.

"Why can't you dodge? My spell angle is so right, you just have to step back a little bit, and you don't need to be as good as me. ”

Russell asked, "The academy also offers courses in hand-to-hand combat, physical strengthening, and weapons training, right?" ”

He was knowingly asking. On the one hand, I am really busy as a mage, and I don't have much free time to study this, on the other hand, the mage exercises the body and has little benefit, the magic power of the mage envoy, the magic power is the extension of the spiritual power, it is its manifestation, and there is no amplification effect on the body, and the energy such as fighting qi is strengthened with the physical exercise, and in turn increases the body, so the effect of the physical training of the war profession is twice the result with half the effort, and the benefits are huge.

Therefore, it is not a plain statement that mages are weak, it is true that most mages are unable to exercise their passing close ability for various reasons, and once they get close, they will be discarded.

But that doesn't justify mages' poor hand-to-hand combat.

None of the mages living in the Adventurer's Guild were too weak to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
