Chapter 209: Visit
"The competition of academic mages (no special rank): This academic competition was proposed by Renaud Evan, who became the challenger, and the knower was the challenged side. The Royal Court of St. Joyce is the arbitrator. ”
"Spell Build: Each side creates a new spell to be judged on this competition. Mission time: 2 weeks. ”
"Primary Condition: The spell must have fire as the primary constituent element (proposed by the Royal Court of St. Joyce) and wind (proposed by Reynolds Evan) and earth (proposed by the Knower) as the secondary constituent elements of the spell."
"Secondary Condition 1: Destruction (proposed by the Royal Court of St. Joyce), the subject of judgment must be destructive magic, with the ability to strike a wide range of groups."
"Secondary Condition 2: Swiftness (proposed by Renaud Evan), judged by hasty magic, difficult to dodge when attacking opponents."
"Secondary Condition Three: Stability (proposed by the Knowing), the object of judgment must be sustainable magic, which can maintain a continuous killing effect for a long time."
"Arbitration: The Royal Court of St. Joyce's Magic will judge the magic of both parties, and if the challenger wins, the challenged party will issue a public apology to Renault Evan. If the challenger wins, the challenger, Renaud Evan, is required to pay material compensation to the Knowers. ”
"Material compensation: One S-rank magic book or three special magic books of A rank or above."
Wan Yi saw the challenge rules to the end, and only the last one made him feel comfortable. The cumbersome way of this academic competition lasts for two weeks, which is far less refreshing than a direct fight
This St. Joyce's Royal Magic Court, nothing to do and what?
Wan Yi carefully studied several conditions of the competition, and suddenly felt that the whole person was not good!
You know, those large-scale, sustainable fire-based high-lethality spells, how can they also be A-rank, plus an additional condition that can be quickly cast, this is the rhythm of directly testing the two sides to create S-rank spells!
Wan Yi asked himself, at present, he is still groping on the door fence of S, it is impossible to create super magic close to the S rank, this Renault Evan is estimated to be a lot lower than him, and it is even more useless!
However, there is one thing Wan Yi really doesn't understand, why Renault Evan is so determined to challenge himself that he even dragged himself to the Royal Magic Court.
Interesting? Is it fun? Or is it really just about reputation?
Without thinking about this question, Wan Yi felt that he couldn't see through Renault Evan, and suddenly felt less confident in his heart, rubbed his forehead with a headache, and instructed the housekeeper beside him: "I may stay in the house for a while and don't go out." You should pay more attention to your daily life. ”
"Yes, sir." The old butler first answered, and then continued: "What trouble did the master encounter? ”
Hearing this, Wan Yi was a little surprised, the old housekeeper of the mansion is called Mandel, he usually likes to call himself "Old Mandel", he has always been a conscientious person who never talks much, how can he have such leisure today?
However, an old NPC like Old Mandel who is good at accidents is okay to talk to him about some things!
So, Wan Yi briefly talked about sending Alina to the assessment during the day, and then pointed to Renault's challenge book and complained: "I just broke through the bottleneck in magic, and I really don't want to spend my energy on this boring challenge. The most frustrating thing is that I can't see through the reason why Examiner Renault has to challenge me, and I feel that I have no bottom in my heart. ”
Old Mandel thought for a while and said his thoughts: "Maybe it's for fame, when I usually go out to run errands, I will meet some servants from several nearby mage mansions, and they all say that my old Mandel has the right master, sir, you are young and promising, and you have made great achievements to become the city lord!" As long as Renault openly defeats you, he can become famous. ”
Wan Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I've also considered what you said, but old Mandel, you don't know how precious the S-rank magic book is!" Every magic book of super spells can be used as a treasure for the town! He was willing to take it out as a bet, how could he just be for that fame? ”
Speaking of this, Wan Yi suddenly thought of a huge loophole in this challenge book, that is, if he loses, he will only be punished with a painless "public apology", and he does not need any compensation, which is really unreasonable!
According to the principle of fairness in the formulation of tasks in the system, once you fail, why do you have to come up with a compensation of the same value as the S-rank magic book, right?
The more Wan Yi thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was a little strange, revealing a strange aura everywhere, he couldn't capsize in the gutter, and in the end he was pitted by this Renault examiner! He thought it would be better to put some effort into getting this thing straight.
It just so happened that Wan Yi met an old man who was also a grandfather in the royal city today! He immediately decided to visit the old man at Bert Humphrey's mansion.
So, Wan Yi explained to the old housekeeper: "I'm going to visit a friend, you go and help me call a carriage and prepare a gift." ”
Old Mandel asked, "Sir, what kind of gift is appropriate?" ”
Wan Yi pondered for a while, the old brother he met today should also be a powerful mage, so he gave him a magic book, and the special magic "Fertile Soil" obtained by studying the Origin Stone was very suitable as a gift.
After deciding, Wan Yi took out a copy of the "Fertile Land" magic book and handed it to the housekeeper: "Find a gift box to put it, and always look solemn when you visit for the first time." ”
"Yes, sir."
Old Mandel's efficiency was really inadequate, and soon, Wan Yi took the gift box and got into the carriage to Humphrey's mansion.
It is worth mentioning that Wan Yi's mage's mansion is quite far away from Humphrey's mansion, and it is nearly an hour's journey by carriage.
The driver was a little surprised when he knew that Wan Yi was going to visit Humphrey's house, the Humphrey family in the royal city was very famous, and as a coachman who walked the streets and alleys of the royal city, he had heard a lot about the Humphrey family, but he really had no impression of Bert Humphrey's character.
Regarding this, Wan Yi only thought that Bert Humphrey might just be a marginal figure in the family, and did not take it to heart.
Later, Wan Yi also got some not-so-good news from the car driver, it turned out that the Humphrey family was originally a famous family in this royal city, but in the past few decades, it has gradually declined
The news of the Humphrey family that has been circulating over the years has also been negative, which makes bystanders like the driver sigh.
Now Wan Yi wondered, this shouldn't be at all, the old brother he just met today looks optimistic and open-minded, but he doesn't look like the son of a declining family at all! (To be continued.) )
