......

After a hurried shower in the middle of the night, the sky over the Patrick Islands was as clean and fresh as if it had been washed with water.

Around the island, the sea reflects the sky, the sky connects to the ocean, and everywhere is blue, and time seems to slow down at this moment.

Compared with the tranquility and beauty outside the island, the center of Patrick's main island is already full of people at this time.

"Hurry up, hurry up! The finals of the Truth Conference are about to begin! If you go slowly, there will be no place to watch the game!"

"Yes, yes, we have to hurry!"

"Speaking of the last qualifier, it really opened my eyes. ”

"I thought that when it came to the qualifiers, Stuart, Charles, and that Kraren Glacier would dominate the whole game, but I never expected that in the end, it was Wu Hui and Lawrence who won the final. ”

"Hey, do you say that in this last final, did Wu Hui and Lawrence have the last laugh, or did those three geniuses regain their form and win the championship in one fell swoop?"

"Hmm...... Hard. Hey, don't talk about it, squeeze in, there's no good spot. ”

Several young magicians in gray robes trotted all the way to the top of the mountain with the crowd.

It is a low hill located in the middle of the main island, which is not high, but there are the remains of an altar from ancient times on it. It is also one of the Patrick Islands, one of several important ancient sites.

This area used to be one of the forbidden areas under the direct jurisdiction of the Academy, but in the past ten years, the relevant personnel of the Magic Association have completed the scientific research of this ruin, and it has just decided to open it recently. Therefore, this ancient relic has become the venue for the finals of this Truth Conference, as well as the competitive event of the competition.

"Let it go, let it go, let it go. ”

"Don't squeeze, don't you see anyone in front of you?"

"Hey, then, what is that altar for? Is the final going to be played on that altar?"

"I think so......"

"Oh, ancient magic is worthy of being the origin of modern magic, there is really so much knowledge to be discovered, such a competition, people can't figure it out at all. ”

The venue for the final is the ruins of an altar located on the top of a hill.

The altar is just over two meters high, but it is the size of seven or eight basketball courts. The altar is circular in shape, made of large blocks of almost weathered white rock, and the style is somewhat rough, but it is full of a sense of vicissitudes that have been washed over the years and become one with the whole mountain.

Now there were nearly twice as many spectators as there was in the second qualifier, and they were beneath the not-so-tall altar.

Almost everyone came here, except for the members of the Magical Association and the Academy, who had to be on duty. Even foreign merchants who came from all over the world gathered a large number today.

If the first two preliminaries and qualifiers were crowded like a festival, then today is an unprecedented event.

Everyone is eagerly awaiting the start of the final round of this Truth Conference.

Suddenly, I don't know who shouted first, "Look, it's President Wood, he's here!"

The crowd gathered under the altar immediately boiled.

Soon, in the bustling crowd, a passage was separated by itself.

President Wood, dressed in a grand robe, Iswell, who has an impressive bearing, and Andrew Hyway, the royal holy wizard who is full of luxury and luxury, three important leaders in the wizarding world, accompanied by relevant personnel of the Magic Association, successively ascended to the rostrum set up above the altar.

After two consecutive losses, President Wood's face was noticeably more serious than before.

He raised his hand to signal the crowd to be quiet, and then faced everyone and announced loudly: "The finals of this Truth Conference are about to begin, and now let's invite the ten outstanding players who have entered the finals, Wu Hui, Lawrence, and Daisy Wa Haige...... Charles Springhall, Karen Glacier, and Ben Stuart, ascend the altar!"

President Wood's voice, calm and powerful, immediately reverberated through the amplification magic.

At this time, the quiet and attentive crowd once again separated the two passages by themselves, and Wu Hui, Lawrence, and the three genius children and other ten advanced players boarded the altar from the left and right sides respectively.

"It's been a lively day. ”

Wu Hui stood on the altar and looked around, the entire altar was full of people rubbing shoulders with each other, and at first glance, they couldn't be counted.

"Haha, it's better to have more people!"

Beside Wu Hui, Lawrence laughed vividly, "Today, I, Lawrence, am going to reach the pinnacle of glory under the witness of so many pairs of eyes!"

Belch...... Under so many pairs of eyes, Wu Hui had no choice but to smile awkwardly and not politely.

In short, this Lawrence has been running all the way on the road to Secondary 2, and he can't pull it.

In addition to Lawrence, who was extremely arrogant, civilian magicians like Cody, Rich Taylor, and Pelt, all of them were excited and full of glory.

They miraculously entered the finals in the last game because of Wu Hui's light, and they are still a little unbelievable. For them, it felt like they were living in a dream.

"Xiao Dai, there is still one last game left, cheer up. Wu Hui patted Daishiva Haige on the shoulder beside him, and muttered in a low voice, "The last game was called tactics, it was all a stupid thing done by that kid from Lawrence, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

"Hmph. Princess Haige skimmed her face, obviously ignoring him.

Princess Haisong covered her face with her hood again today, and after the nightmarish nausea of the last promotion match, she felt very embarrassed to stand in front of anyone now.

Opposite Princess Haige, Karen Glacier, who was standing opposite, had a blue face and a pair of evil pupils like sea snakes, and swept towards Hai Ge, Wu Hui and the others from time to time, full of strong resentment.

Ben Stuart, as well as the third prince Charles, their attitude towards Wu Hui is also extremely bad. When they looked at Wu Hui, Lawrence and the others, they all seemed to be about to erupt into flames at this moment.

How noble are the three of them? Ordinary poor people like Wu Hui and Lawrence, they don't even look at them on weekdays. But now, at such an important truth conference, they have been defeated again and again at the hands of these two despicable and shameless boys with endless means, and they really can't swallow this breath.

A sharp atmosphere at the scene is invisibly permeating.

It seemed that only the female player from the academy, Melia Hurt, was indifferent to this.

Looking at her expression, it seems that she just wants to prove herself at this conference, and as for other trivial matters, they have nothing to do with her.

President Wood glanced at the reactions of the contestants, and in order to avoid the conflict between the contestants, he simply kept everything simple. In addition, his mood was so bad that he stopped talking at length, and went straight to the topic as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Ten finalists, please stand in front of the slates. ”

Following President Wood's guidance, Wu Hui and the others walked to the middle of the altar, about one meter square, in front of the stone slabs on the ground.

Walking here, Wu Hui found that these stone slabs were not so simple.

There are also ten stone slabs, but they are quite old, and they are carved with strange patterns and cumbersome characters that cannot be understood. It was not so much a stone slab as it was the core component of a magic array.

Because Wu Hui and the other ten players are standing now, the position they are standing in is a small magic array with more than ten square meters, and there is a groove in the core of the magic array, which just matches the stone slab on the ground.

"Everyone, listen up. ”

President Wood's language was concise, and he introduced loudly to the ten contestants and the many onlookers at the scene, "As you can see, these small magic arrays are all from the ruins of the ancient magic array, and those stone slabs are copies of the original core of the ancient magic array that were dismantled by the special members of our magic association!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd at the scene immediately burst into an uproar.

Everyone knows that the last era belongs to the era of ancient magic, and the ancient magic is broad and profound, if the ruins of the ancient magic array in the ancient era are used as the final exam questions, it is really too profound and difficult!

"Brother Wu Hui, don't worry, I have the favor of the God of Magic, we will win this final!" Lawrence was full of energy and energy, and even his chest was crackling.

"That's right, that's right, it's no surprise that the god of magic will still favor you in this final. Wu Hui nodded at him, and said in his heart that this Lawrence probably couldn't have imagined that the god of magic he had in mind was now in this inconspicuous ring on his finger.

"Silence!"

President Wood raised his hand, suppressed the cacophony, and continued, "For the sake of fairness and balance, the replicas of the core originals have all been damaged and problematic to the same degree. In other words, the final test of this Truth Conference Final is to repair these core components of the Ancient Magic Array and restart the entire magic site as quickly as possible within the time limit of three magic months!"

At this time, not only the onlookers under the altar, but even the many contestants on the altar felt tremendous pressure.

The experts of the Magic Association have studied and restored the ruins of the ancient magic circle on this altar. Now the core components of these magic array ruins have been disassembled and copied, and then placed in front of every contestant with the same degree of damage.

Now if you want to get a high ranking in the finals and win the final championship, you must truly unlock the mysteries of ancient magic, repair the ancient core parts, and restart the entire ruins of the magic circle.

The difficulty in this is far more difficult than the previous preliminaries and qualifiers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our association will provide you with a unified repair tool. And after the finals officially begin, every player who enters the ruins of the magic circle will be surrounded by the results produced by the magic circle. The enchantment will be cut off from all sound to the outside world until the match is complete, when the enchantment will open on its own. ”

With President Wood's introduction, the staff of the Magic Association put the toolboxes one by one into the current ten contestants including Wu Hui and Lawrence.

Wu Hui and Lawrence and other ten players, under the guidance of the staff, came to the designated position to stand.

When the staff retreated one after another, Keith Wood, the president of the Magic Association, announced in a loud voice: "The final of the Truth Conference has officially begun!"

In an instant, a translucent bowl-shaped magic enchantment immediately enveloped the magic ruins, along with the contestants inside.

The contestants who were inside the enchantment couldn't see the outside at all, except for the ruins of the magic array in front of them and the stone slab, and they couldn't see any sound at all. The audience outside can clearly see the every move of the players inside the enchantment.

Such a special competition and the feeling of watching the game made the onlookers at the scene feel high and discussed.

"Wow, this final is too difficult!"

"Compared with previous editions, the test items of this year's finals actually require the contestants to directly restore the ruins of ancient magic!"

"What the hell does President Wood think, how can those contestants be so young to understand the mysteries of ancient magic?"

"It seems that this will be a real test of heritage and accumulation. ”

"Hey, you say, can Wu Hui and Lawrence go to the end this time?"

"They?huh...... Difficult!"

Needless to say, the first round of qualifiers was about the basics of modern magic. Basically, as long as you study diligently, you can master this knowledge and become a true magician.

In the second round of the promotion competition, the content of the test is to show the application, plus the balanced teamwork of the high and low positions, and many tactical skills that can be applied to the actual battle, even if the strength is low, you can also score high points with the cooperation of tactics and teammates.

Therefore, in the eyes of many spectators, Wu Hui and Lawrence were able to advance to the first round of qualifiers and the second round of qualifiers, which was somewhat lucky.

At least in these two rounds of competition, with some cleverness and good luck, you can successfully advance, and even get a high pick.

But this third final is different, you must know that ancient magic is the source of modern magic, and it has a high status in the modern magic world, and there are too many mysteries that have not been solved, and it belongs to the top research scope of the magic world.

To put it bluntly, ancient magic is the field of research that only those experts and old scholars in the magic world will be involved in, and often some high-level magicians will study it for a lifetime.

This kind of difficult magic field is really difficult for many young magicians, and they have no way to start. The vast majority of young magicians can't even read even the most basic ancient characters and magical inscriptions.

Now the test content of the third final is directly to restore the core components of the ancient magic array ruins, and this exam question alone can basically stump more than ninety percent of the young magicians in the world.

If there were ten contestants on the scene, who could possibly parse the mystery of the Ancient Magic Array?

Then it is definitely Stuart, Charles, and Karen Glacier, the three disciples of the Dharma Saint.

Not to mention anything else, with a deep background, the three of them are unmatched.

"Hmph, this time my disciple Charles will definitely win in the end!"

The discussion of the crowd at the scene naturally spread to the ears of the three bigwigs on the rostrum. Among them, the palace holy demon master Andrew Haiwei snorted coldly, and his eyes were full of inevitable momentum.

"Hehe, I don't think so. Ice Calamity Iswell sneered disapprovingly, "If you compare it to the background, will my disciple Karen Glacier be worse than your gentleman?"

"What do you mean?"

That's what it means. ”

"Calm down, when it comes to heritage and accumulation, I think there is no place in this world that can compare to our Magic Association, right?" President Wood interjected unrelentingly, "I think Stuart will definitely not disappoint me this time! In addition, there is also an excellent player in our academy, Melia Hurt, who has also entered the finals, and she is also full of hope." Think about it, among the top ten finalists, two of them are directly affiliated to our association, and in any case, the college directly under our association has a greater chance of winning. ”

At this last moment, the three bigwigs who connected the fiascos all had some resentment and anger in their hearts.

This is not the final has just begun, and the three top bosses in the wizarding world are already arguing with each other on the rostrum.

The final is already the last chance for the three of them to compete with each other. If they fail to grasp it well this time, there is no doubt that for a long time in the future, it will mean that they will be trampled under each other's feet.

They can't swallow this breath.

While they were arguing, a short figure of small stature walked to the rostrum with his hands behind his back.

"Everyone, please listen to me, it's all at this point, you might as well be smooth, right? Whoever wins and loses is the future blessing of the wizarding world. ”

The three bigwigs followed the voice, turned their eyes, and immediately tightened their hearts, and involuntarily took a deep breath.

Jimmy Gunter!

This shameless old guy is here to play the round again!

The two gambling games that caused them to lose terribly before, Jimmy Gunter, that old guy, are all such opening lines, right?

"Jimmy. President Wood squinted at him and said, "Are you proposing to gamble again?"

"No, no, no, this time I won't gamble. Jimmy Gaunt shook his head into a rattle and said, "Gambling is a bad thing, and we can't make a bad influence on our juniors." ”

The three Saint Order bosses fainted in anger.

Jimmy, you old thing, won so much wealth and resources by gambling, and after making a lot of money, you began to dislike gambling badly.

"That's not going to work. Royal Holy Demon Master Andrew had a dark face and interrupted Jimmy's words without hesitation, "You want to run if you win, how can there be such a cheap thing? ”

"That's a good point. ”

"This game has to be gambled. ”

President Wood and Ice Scourge Iswell nodded in unison, looking at Jimmy with an unusually kind gaze.

Under the sharp eyes of the three big guys, Jimmy was under a lot of pressure.

He deeply felt that if he didn't agree to come down today, he might be demolished by these three people together.

"Okay! With a painful face, he took out 10 magic stones from the storage ring and put them on the table, "10 magic stones, escort Wu Hui forward, ...... Top five. ”

President Wood raised an eyebrow and did not speak.

Ice Calamity's gaze suddenly became seeping.

"Jimmy, we're betting on the winner. Royal Holy Demon Master Andrew looked at him with a "smile", "Moreover, it's only 10 philosopher's stones, who do you look down on?"

The three of them seemed to have amnesia at the same time, selectively forgetting what they had said in the first two games.

"Okay, okay~ Bet on the champion and bet on the champion. ”

Jimmy's face was sad, and he hesitantly took out two philosopher's stones and glanced at the three big guys.

Seeing that the expressions of the three remained unchanged, he took out two more philosopher's stones, glanced at the three of them, and took out two more......

After digging four or five times in a row, seeing that the three bigwigs didn't let him go at all, the expressions on his face changed greatly, and finally he suddenly became ruthless as if he had broken a jar, gritted his teeth and said: "No matter! Anyway, the big head wins, and if you lose, you lose~ I'm all in bet!"

He threw a whole bag of Philosopher's Stones on the table with a "whoosh". Because it was too full, several magic stones immediately fell from the mouth of the bag and rolled around on the table a few times.

The three bigwigs were stunned for a moment.

They just wanted to force Jimmy to spit out a little more Philosopher's Stone, but they didn't think to make him go all~

"All in really?" asked President Wood, hesitantly.

"What's the matter? aren't you forcing me to gamble?" Jimmy glared at him in annoyance, looking completely unconcerned about the explosion, "130 philosopher's stones, one is not a lot." It's your turn to place your bets. ”

......
