Chapter 703: The Beginning

You must know that in the past, the champions of this event were all booked by Movente Academy, and now that such a dark horse has suddenly been killed, it is really shocking. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, the higher-ups of the Movent Academy were not much surprised-they already knew that the Cullen Kingdom held the secret of the "Charged Crystal", so after Nefi won the championship, not only did they hold an award ceremony for her that far exceeded the current category, but also let the host praise her to the sky with extremely exaggerated statements.

Later, the "Champion Reward" was also temporarily changed, changing the original "Excellent" quality "Puppet Core Circle" to a "epic" puppet Core Circle made by Jeremy, and also giving the opportunity to "enter Movent Academy for free", and providing a salary equivalent to that of a "Researcher".

This is obviously a naked courtship and overture. The dean of Movente didn't care how he was slapped in the face yesterday, because he just wanted to figure out how the "Charged Crystal" was made now...

For the puppets who use the magic crystal energy, the appearance of the "Charged Crystal" is a complete revolution, and the improvement of the puppet school far exceeds that of any other faction!

Naifi didn't refuse or agree, but after receiving the reward with a smile, he took Akasha's hand and left the arena.

And in the "Path of Glory" arena in Barrena, the "Mage Showdown" series, the highlight of "Twilight Crown", has finally begun the qualifiers. However, within half an hour after the start of the qualifiers, the eyes of the entire venue were basically focused on one person...

Rasiman's "Mage Showdown" is known to be highly skillful, as it takes place in the preliminaries with a very short interval between each match, which is officially described as a way to "simulate a truly high-intensity battle". Therefore, each mage has to adjust their strategy and rest time according to the enemy they are facing.

In every match, speculating on the winners' wins and losses and their countermeasures is one of the great pleasures of the spectators - and the gambles between the favourites often win or lose more than 10,000 gold coins. But this year they clearly lost such an opportunity ... Because of the strength shown by Mai Linsella, "guess who will win" has become "guess who can force her to use the second move".

That's right, Merinsella still swept all the opponents with small fireballs, and by doing so, she directly admitted that she was the mysterious person who swept all the opponents in the four arenas in the first place!

No matter who the opponent is, no matter what skills or spells or power-ups the opponent uses, all the matches that Merinsela participates in are over in three seconds.

She was calm and silent, but that chilling momentum frightened the three mages who responded to the battle into failing to cast spells and backlashing on the spot!

The "Mage Duel" is the biggest stage for Rasiman to select mages and show the strength of an academy, so not only the speaker Jeremy was present to watch the battle, but also the other high-level executives of each academy were all present, including many of Raciman's "old guys" who had no real power but were strong.

In front of them, Merinsela crushed all her opponents with less strength than the Magister, and in a total of twelve rounds, none of which allowed her to use her second skill.

This scene basically destroyed the last bit of luck that the Rasiman Council originally held...

In the face of the cobalt gold ore and charged hedron displayed by Roddy, the council thought that they could negotiate the purchase in various ways. Because they think that Rasiman has absolutely leading magical technology and mage reserves - in terms of magical attainments, the council really doesn't believe that a "dirt bun" like Roddy can compare to Raciman!

Yet Merinsela put their last fig leaf... Tear it apart without any mercy.

In the past, they could still be proud of all other countries with their "magic reserves", but now, they found that the "Karen Kingdom" not only has the resources they urgently need, but also has strong magical strength.

Only then did the parliamentarians present understand why Roddy dared to refuse to meet directly yesterday -- think about it in a different position, if he lacked nothing, he could indeed not have anyone.

So what's next?

Speaker Jeremy frowned, yesterday he thought that although the parliament was passive, it still relied on, but now it seems that if negotiations are opened, Rasiman really has no initiative at all...

However, when most of the councilors were thinking about how to cooperate with the Karen Kingdom, Rotica stared at Merinsera and whispered to his subordinates beside him: "This is a hard stubble, if you can't touch it, you won't touch it." ”

With that, he turned his gaze to Roddy, who was sitting in the audience at the other end of the arena, and narrowed his eyes.

"It seems that the messenger himself is not capable, if you have the opportunity, you can decide for yourself. ”

"It's... Speaker. ”

At the same moment, Roddy sat leisurely in the "VIP seat" and watched the game below.

Naturally, this is the best seat that can be bought with money, anyway, he used the "information asymmetry" to cheat the Lasiman Council of more than 100,000 gold coins, and the money is not spent in vain, so he ordered almost all the snacks and drinks, and placed a bunch on the shelf next to it for Nefi, Akasha, and Sylvia to eat while watching.

"Is there a game ahead? It's really tiring for them to play 12 games in one go. ”

"There is also the formation of the circle and the formation of the formation of the formation of the formation, but that Merin Sera did not sign up. ”

Akasha glanced at the elaborately framed schedule, and Roddy nodded, then got up and left the VIP seat to make it easier. However, after walking to the corner of the stairs dozens of meters away, he was stopped by Dores, who seized the opportunity to follow.

"Lord Roddy, it's so hard to find you a word..."

Doris's voice was sweet, but the grief in her eyes was palpable. Roddy actually noticed that she was constantly looking for opportunities to get close to her when she was in the VIP stands, so she was already ready at this time, and replied with a surprised face: "Oh, Doroes - I was still thinking about looking for you after participating in the game yesterday, but who knew that the group of old men were stuck in the hotel, and I really couldn't get out..."

"yes, Lord Roddy is now a celebrity for Rasiman, and maybe he'll forget about me in a few days..."

After speaking, Dorois bit her lip and lowered her head and said, "Then is Lord Roddy willing to come out and chat with us today?"

"Oh?"

Roddy's eyes swept over her chest, and he smiled with a squint: "I can't leave now, or... Have dinner together?"

"Dinner is good, but I just have something to discuss with Lord Roddy, and it's about the cooperation between the Eskar Kingdom and the Karen Kingdom. ”

Upon hearing this, Luo Di pretended to be very disappointed: "Talking about cooperation, are you going to call those companions?"

"No, no, it's just me. I mean... Let's talk slowly..."

Dorois lowered her head and played with the corners of her skirt, and Roddy suddenly smiled when she heard it—"Okay, okay, where are you going?"

whispered to Roddy about the hotel room he had booked, and Dores ran away with a shy face. But as soon as she turned the corner, she breathed a sigh of relief. In her eyes, Roddy must have taken the bait this time, and what she has to do next is to push him down as soon as possible and get it done...

But she didn't know that Roddy, who walked to the other side with frivolous steps, was also relieved.

"It seems... It's finally going to be a showdown. ”

Rassiman does attract most people to watch the most spectacular events, but for the fishermen of Duriel, they are more concerned about their livelihoods.

Recently, the fishing boats that have gone out to sea to catch two or three percent more fish have caught more than before, and in the last two days, there have even been exaggerated scenes of fishing nets almost bursting - in the winter, the fish are not easy to catch, so most people choose to go to sea several times at this time, in the hope of making a little more hard-earned money.

However, in the midst of the excitement, they also seem to ignore the fact that several fishing boats have never returned. Because everyone knows that the fish are a little different this year, so these fishing boats that can sail far away are only for a few more catches and then come back, and no one regards this "overdue return" as "missing".

Today, however, the fishermen in the harbor have experienced something strange as they have never seen before - because they have discovered... Many of the fish species that were supposed to be in the open sea are now in the near sea.

Those small fishing boats laid their nets a few hundred meters from the shore, and they really caught a lot of money one after another. This kind of thing was unheard of in the past, and at first it was even regarded as a rumor of bragging. But as the small fishing boats brought those fish ashore, and saw the big fish that could be sold for a price being transported away in front of them, the rest of the fishermen suddenly couldn't calm down...

"How can there be such a good thing?"

"What are you waiting for!?

The fishermen who reacted got on board and headed off into the distance, and before most of them could start casting their nets, they collectively witnessed an unforgettable scene...

Countless schools of fish beneath the surface of the water began to leap upwards like crazy.

The sound of "bang-bang-bang" is endless, because schools of fish continue to rush out of the water and fall back into the sea, at first small fish, then gradually more than 20 centimeters in length, then with rays, small sharks and even more than 3 meters in length sailfish!

The fishermen, who were still happily opening their nets to catch fish, were so frightened that they hid in the corners of the fishing boats and did not dare to come out of the way--many people who had no time to dodge were hit by the fish that jumped out of the water, and after falling into the sea, they were bitten and torn apart by the crazy school of fish...

"Knock! knock!"

The bottom of the wooden fishing boat was constantly slamming violently, the whole hull was shaken badly by the successive impacts, and there were many fish on the deck of the boat that were constantly struggling and swinging, but the fishermen did not even dare to control the hull to return to the dock... Because no one knows if they will end up with those companions who fell into the water.

And the people on the shore have changed from envy to amazement - the schools of fish that keep jumping on the surface of the sea have spread from far and near, and finally to the shore!

The people standing in the harbor watched the "grand scene" of the fish flying ashore, and at first there were people who stepped forward with a net bag and kept picking it up, but later they were also frightened by the larger guys and ran away desperately... Because the smaller fish will only struggle desperately after landing, and the fish with a volume of more than two meters are not at all something that ordinary humans can deal with after landing, they do not forget to open their bloody mouths and bite around while fluttering, and some even directly gnaw people and drag them into the water, instantly bringing a blurred red.

The panic spread, but just as everyone fled the dock like crazy, the school of fish suddenly retreated completely. The noise in my ears disappeared at once, and the surface of the water that had been boiling was completely quiet, except for the constant moaning of being bitten...

The people who stopped looked at each other, not knowing what it meant.

However, the dock's mage in charge of defense immediately reported the news to the council - and a series of alerts were issued, according to the "alarm code" that had been customized by the council, and the fishermen were "forbidden to continue their operations at sea".

And when the news reached Speaker Jeremy's desk, the Magister was frowning and reading a copy of the Rasiman Fishery.

The latest issue of the newspaper was the same paper published by Roddy and Houdini. Jeremy didn't see this by chance - when he understood what Roddy was behind it, he immediately realized that the news Houdini had reported for the first time was probably true. And to have today's result, the parliament's resolution and his own distrust of Houdini are indisputable main reasons.

Now the entire council has not been able to meet with Roddy, apparently really annoying the other party. So in order to repair the relationship, Jeremy thought about it and realized that he could only start with Houdini. But he also knew that what the Blunka Academy did to Houdini would be unbearable for anyone... But now the situation is stronger than people, and in his capacity as Speaker, he can only personally look for a breakthrough to improve relations at this moment.

So, Houdini and Roddy's papers were found.

Jeremy didn't think Houdini could write anything useful, but when he saw the well-structured, logical, and informative research, he realized that he seemed to have missed a very important discovery—and for the first time, he was ashamed to turn over Roddy's paper on "Variation Studies," which could almost have opened up a new project on his own...

Because Roddy and Houdini corroborate each other not only about the mutation of marine life, but also indicate that Rasiman has a high probability of facing threats from the ocean!

And this threat, as the speaker of the Rasiman Assembly, almost completely ignored it because of his arrogance!

Compared with Jeremy's previous research, he confirmed the correctness of Roddy and Houdini's thesis. With this in mind, he immediately realized that the matter had to be put on the agenda of the council immediately, but before he could write the content of the agenda, the news of the "Dock Vision" came - and when he heard that this unprecedented "tide of fish" had caused more than forty casualties, Jeremy picked up his staff and walked out the door:

"An order for an 'emergency meeting' was issued, and all members of parliament must be present within an hour. ”

A huge magical signal bloomed at the top of the "Colommere" tower, and the six colleges soon responded... Obviously, tonight must be a sleepless night for Rasiman.
