Chapter 28: Listen to Me Roar 1
Lanzerim underwent both subjective and objective hearing from Shambhala, and thankfully her hearing was not severely damaged.
……
"How about pairing Jonanstine with Tya Lulu."
"I don't support it. You see, he's a guy who is sensitive to malice. ”
"It's competition, and we're just arranging opponents who they might dig into each other's qualities."
"We need to confirm the level of mastery of Sya Lulu's mental magic."
"I'm rooting for this pairing anyway."
Shambhala actually has a certain pertinence for students' choices, and the pertinence is also one-sided.
There are only so many students with outstanding abilities, and the remaining firefighting that is not outstanding enough is ignored.
……
There are few positive adjectives about Roman, which seems to be because the family of origin seems to be because of the order of birth.
Roman's label does not describe the young man's promising responsibility, nor does he describe his outstanding ability, but more because of various opportunities to be labeled as domineering and irritable and neurotic.
His abilities seem to be taken for granted by the outside world, and almost no one is willing to delve into his efforts and gains, and it may be thought that the ominous seventh boy must be a symbol of doom and ability.
It's like this on the outside world.
The matchup between Roman and Tate, which was the three eliminations that took place at the same time, was considered the most valuable by Shambhala.
Because none of them seem to underestimate each other, no one has released water, and they are all digging deep into each other's valuable qualities in the continuous confrontation.
……
"Do you see Roman's wide-opening and closing magic release characteristics, Tate, who is also an innate magician, obviously can't do this."
"In the later stage, it turned out to be a war of attrition, and the endurance of the earth mage is still very good."
"No, you see Tate's hardened rock isn't as strong as it was at the beginning. But Roman, on the other hand, gave up on striking at close range entirely, knowing that he wouldn't do anything good by getting an axe by Tate's side. ”
As Shambhala said, Tate and Roman began to adjust their battle plans after a period of stalemate.
Without Honansteen's netting to slap Thuley's neatness, or Tyra's retribution-like personality reversal, Roman and Tate are approaching this knockout match with the most serious attitude.
……
The spells that overlap with the Lanzerim Miya Lulu group are the Roman and Tate groups.
The exception to this is that Lulu defeated Lanzerim with a voice spell, just as Xiuli had no experience with the Net, and Lanzerim had no experience with sound spells.
She even covered her ears with her hands like a layman.
This is an accident in Shambhala's eyes, and the norm should be to see each other between family mages who are experienced in actual combat.
They have a lot of experience in actual combat and are skilled in handling such non-specialized spells.
Roman is also a vocal expert, and Roman's vocal magic is superior in scope and lethality to Shambhala's to Tya Lulu.
But even more commendable is Tate's handling of sound magic, and if Tate, like Lanzerim, becomes meat on the chopping block because of sound magic, it will be another regrettable elimination.
Unlike the point-to-line attacks that Tya Lulu creates by tapping, Tya Lulu's point-to-surface rift becomes a total sand powder in Roman's hands.
Judging from the effect alone, you can decide the best at once.
It may be a coincidence that Roman and Hya Lulu's attack paths are actually quite similar, they feint through some kind of external conditions, and then use sound magic to shatter the opponent's defenses.
Roman used force magic to jump, and force magic made Roman reach a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye in an instant—a speed that had always been a headache for Tate.
It's like a hornet that can't catch a high-speed flying hornet with its hands.
Tate couldn't catch Roman with precision, and he could only wait for the moment Roman attacked him to blast him away.
The sound oscillations of the vocal system are difficult for the caster to overcome.
Roman's staff tapped Tate's earthen wall, and the sound shield exploded in Tate's ears like a beam of soundcannons that gathered impact.
At that moment, all the noise came to naught, leaving only a deafening to pale noise in the ears.
Lanzerim made two mistakes in the face of sound spells, first, instinctively, she closed her eyes and chose to protect her ears, and second, her defenses collapsed and she was powerless to fight back.
As a man with combat experience, Tate's approach to the same type of attack is very different from Lanzerim's.
He had learned to endure the physical discomfort of both ears while keeping his eyes fixed on his surroundings, and then he fought back against adversity when he sensed the sandification of his hardened rock.
The sandy rocks were pulled by an invisible force, like a sandstorm, and the earth thorns gathered to quickly form the next line of defense.
……
"It's a sandstorm that is both offensive and defensive."
The sandstorm was just a trick, watching Roman jump out of the sandstorm with a quick backward jump, and facing Tate at such a close distance, what worried Roman the most was the ground thorns that Tate could call at will.
Roman knew that his reaction speed could not keep up with Tate in the shadows when he lost his sight.
"Roman is very steady now, he's tempting."
"Textbook-like tricks."
In terms of dealing with emergencies, whether it is Roman, who is fast forward and retreating, or Tate, who is strategizing, all faintly said that today is a wonderful knockout game.
"Now it's a matter of who shows the flaws first, or who wins."
It may seem difficult to get the two men to shine, but Shambhala is still expecting something unexpected on one side.
……
The two sides seem to be evenly matched, and the symbolic war of attrition is ruthlessly tugging at the physical strength and energy of both sides.
Because of the gradual consumption, Tate felt that his sweat was no longer due to the heat of his body in order to dissipate heat, but a sign of weakness that his physical strength had reached a certain upper limit.
What surprised him was that Roman's precise direction was gradually improving?
It may be that his reflexes are slow to give the illusion that Roman is getting faster, and Roman is gradually putting pressure on him anyway. This reminded Tate of his parents' admonitions.
Although Buda's mages are admirable, their family is not respectable enough. Once their family is respected, they will be a great existence.
It sounds tongue-in-cheek, but Tate is halfway convinced.
Although the Buda family is not truly recognized by the family, once the Buda family is recognized, he must be the sleepless lion in the Sage Tower.
Roman is indeed not a flower papaya.
Due to the limitation of its properties, Tate is not sensitive to the humidity of the air, and its properties are very stable and difficult to be affected by external factors.
At first, Tate occasionally worries about meeting students from the Colorless Tower who have mastered wind spells, but this worry is purely unnecessary.
Roman, on the other hand, has more consideration for Tate, because his thunder and land attributes are not on his appetite.
Sometimes Roman even thinks that Shambhala may have deliberately chosen Tate as his opponent.
Shambhala is just a bad taste and likes to see people tied up.
It's not pleasing at close range, so try the long range, Roman found out from just now that Tate is a steady man, but he will definitely not take the initiative to attack.
If you compare Tate to something, he's a bit like the eels that are still hiding in the reef, they like to kill you all of a sudden, and then hide in the crevices of the rocks after the assault.
I'm afraid that the eel will only be forced out if he dismantles his reef, and Roman continued the dangerous thought in his mind just now.
Sand and gravel splashes on the knockout field.
