Chapter 6: A Strange Magician
In the dim city alley, Xia Wushuang's entire body curled up in a ball, and the broken ligaments all over his body sent back wave after wave of labor pain, making him unable to close his eyes at all.
The blood-colored sky has completely darkened with the sunset, and although the avenues in Lan City are still not so peaceful. But the screaming, hoarse cries for help of the crowd have died away, replaced by hordes of ghoul-infected, walking dead. They rose from the ground again, shook their decaying bodies, and began to wander around aimlessly, occasionally crashing into shops or cars, causing a shrill siren.
The humans who fled in chaos during the day were obviously dead at this moment. The rest of the survivors were either stumbling on their way to escape, or they were the first ones who survived calmly.
The lonely and eerie street once again came with "Boom! Boom! The roaring sound of the building collapsing mixed with the abrupt screams of human beings made Xia Wushuang's heart sink slightly. When I looked up, I saw a huge black shadow walking past the mid-rise buildings on both sides, and the height of more than 100 meters squeezed all the tall buildings apart, and the destructive power was even more terrifying than a moving war fortress.
And what made Xia Wushuang even more uneasy was that there was a huge black vortex at the mouth of this tall stone heart! In this whirlpool, there are constantly winged black creatures flying out in all directions, and looking at their whereabouts, most of them are where the human army stationed in Lan City is located.
Xia Wushuang slowly propped up his body, but his throbbing heart slowly sank. In such a chaotic last world, does mankind really have a future?
"What are you going to do?! That's Hearthstone! An existence that can't break the defense at all until the dusk level! "Seven is very nervous, and he is really afraid that this difficult host will not be able to think about it for a while, and will do something shocking.
"I'm just changing positions, are you going to do it?" Xia Wushuang rubbed his hands, most of the burns during the day had healed, and the damaged arm that had suppurated due to the slight poison of the steam was no longer so painful.
"The evaluation of the primary bloodline task has come down, if it weren't for you being so impulsive, the super god host would definitely not give only an A-grade evaluation!" Although Seven said this, there was no regret in his words. Obviously, to get an evaluation above the A grade, it is by no means as simple as he said.
"An A-grade rating? What's the use? Xia Wushuang didn't regret that he didn't get a higher evaluation, he could only be a realistic person when he was in such a dangerous situation.
"The bloodline quest is the most important elite main quest of the Awakened, and evaluations below B-level will not receive any rewards, while B-level evaluations will only have one chance to draw specialized pages, and the relative A-level evaluation will get an additional chance to draw skills on top of B-level rewards. As for the A-level evaluation and above, there are two kinds of evaluations, S-level and X-level, but the X-level evaluation is basically impossible to achieve unless you are already super-god. β
"So, I'm really at a loss." Hearing this, Xia Wushuang pondered for a moment, and then his attention shifted to the Essence Turntable that had already been projected in his soul.
At this time, the area of the disc has been slightly smaller, and the six-colored turntable has also become five-colored. Water, fire, earth, thunder, and life each occupy a strange color.
"Seven, do you think these five specializations are more powerful?" The villain who became conscious glanced at the funny clown next to him and asked.
"Needless to say, the strongest is of course the power of death, followed by the Dark Earth, the Feather Cloak Purple Lightning, and the second is the Azure Fire and the Emerald Green Divine Light."
"The power of death?!" Xia Wushuang's eyebrows jumped, and his gaze immediately locked on the gray area engraved with the word "life".
"Oops, I accidentally said something out of my mouth. According to the rules of the system, I can't spoil it. No. 7 smiled and said meaningfully, "But I already have the primary blocking permission to the supergod host, so what does it matter?" β
This is a means of trading for the Red Fruit Fruit, and Seven's intention to obtain higher authority is obvious, but this intention must be completed through Xia Wushuang's host.
"Having said all that, isn't that just for me to listen to you? But you see, isn't this benefit too little? As Xia Wushuang spoke, he had already turned the disc under his hand. In the void, a large amount of magic began to stir and precipitate in the soul again, but the pointer actually stagnated on the blue fire, which really made people not know what to say.
"It's a blue fire...... I didn't expect you to draw the 'Dark Elementalist'' most powerful attack power so early...... You were born to kill. "Seven's clown face is split into a terrifying arc, like the devil in a horror movie, which makes people feel inexplicably afraid.
"One in five odds, is it hard?" Xia Wushuang muttered, and then looked sideways in surprise: "Didn't you say that the Blue Fire is the second?" β
"That's relative to your current situation, you can't expect your current self to have the perverted lethality of the peak fire method, right?" What the Seven says is not a big truth, it is nothing more than the difference between the strongest specialization and the suitable specialization.
"Forget it, something is better than nothing." There was an extra cold thing in the elemental blood, and there was an extra blue magic that symbolized the flame in the dark soul, Xia Wushuang only felt that the pain in his whole body was gone, and he felt better than ever.
He was a greedy man who knew how to be content. He is said to be greedy because he is a natural gambler, always with a small heart, and has no idea what fear is. It is said that he is content because after he gets anything, he will not feel sorry for himself for what he can't get better, but think about how to make good use of what he has to create greater value.
In the words of Teacher Fan Yueyang upstairs, this is the realm of "not being happy with things, not being sad with yourself".
"I hope you don't draw skills like big fireballs, or you will fall into a weak state after you accumulate this bit of mana, and after putting a skill." Xia Wushuang's breezy breeze aroused Seven's strong jealousy.
Xia Wushuang ignored Seven's sarcastic tease about his weakness, and the tentacles of consciousness pressed on the roulette wheel of ten colors and five lights again.
The turntable of skills is very different from the turntable of the specialization page, and the names of various magic are densely engraved on it, but Xia Wushuang can only understand some simple words. For example, the legendary "Great Fireball", "Stygian Fire Bomb", "Burst Flame", "Wall of Fire" and so on.
Silently chanting the words "Don't draw a big fireball or something like that", Xia Wushuang pointed to the street lamp that was still lit outside the alleyway, and prayed and turned the turntable.
The time in the soul passed as hard as a long winter night. In the dark sky, crystal dust crystals loomed, and those were the souls of the alien creatures that had been wiped out by the army, and I don't know which great god behind the blood cloud had taken away the Dao.
The pointer silently stopped on a skill called "Magic Bullet", Xia Wushuang only felt a blur of consciousness, and a huge six-pointed star suddenly slammed into his soul. However, this rune seemed to be born with the ability to replicate itself, and it was silent in the blue fire for less than a second before it self-replicated another six-pointed star rune and flew straight towards the location of the Shattered Wind.
βniceοΌ You've finally drawn the Arcane skill of the Elementalist. No. 7 couldn't help but praise excitedly, although he was jealous of Xia Wushuang's attitude towards life, he and Xia Wushuang were one after all, and they were both prosperous.
"I know what you want to ask, there are thousands of kinds of magic in the world, and there are countless magic that belong to the six systems of earth, water, wind, fire, thunder and lightning. Although elementals are still magicians at heart, they have a more thorough understanding of magic, so they will have more unbelievable methods than magicians, and the magic bullet you draw is one of them. β
"It's a joy to be." Xia Wushuang perfunctorily looked at the excited No. 7, and he pulled out the long knife without sadness or joy, and the magic power of the blue flame flowed on the long knife, showing a faint blue light.
The light was cold, bitterly cold.
At the same time, Xia Wushuang's consciousness finally had some more information for a long time: "Magic Bullet: Condense the magic power in the soul into a magic bullet, and instantly radiate it in the form of a barrage, the damage and cooldown of the magic bullet depend on the strength of the magic power refined by the elemental." β
This secret method faintly reflects the essential difference between elementals and magicians. Magicians are good at using external magic, and most of the time they just use their own magic power as a guide to mobilize the magic power of heaven and earth, releasing magic with a huge killing range and an attack power that is difficult to match; Elementalists, on the other hand, prefer to refine the magic power accumulated in themselves, so as to make these magic powers condensed and special, in order to far exceed the purpose of magicians of the same level in terms of casting speed and magic resistance.
Because of these special attributes, although the elementalists are also part of the magic family, they still get a less elegant title - "Elemental Spellbreakers". It means that all elemental magic strikes on these special beings will greatly reduce the effect.
What's more, what's even more interesting is that although magicians have been tempered with magic power all year round, their physical fitness will become extremely strong. However, the Elementalists are able to completely crush the former in this regard, so most female magicians prefer to marry the Elementals rather than their own kind. Of course, female elementals are sure not to like magicians...... As for the reason, ahem...... You know.
"Does this skill have hidden growth attributes?" Xia Wushuang's eyes were very poisonous, and it was easy to read another layer of meaning between the lines.
"This has to talk about mages and elementals, completely different advanced mechanisms." Touching on the theme, Seven also got serious: "The magician's way of progressing is both simple and violent, that is, he constantly meditates to instill magic into his soul, and when he reaches a certain level, he will automatically advance." The bottleneck is that sometimes the fish tank is only that big, and too much meditation will only allow the excess magic to leak out. The Elemental's advanced method is relatively more difficult, although its fish tank is not easy to fill, but it can be filled with 'high-end water' like the 'Evergrande Ice Spring', so maybe you meditate for ten hours, but you can't match the amount of magic that a magician can get by meditating for an hour. β
"Of course, this is all a trivial matter, and the most difficult thing for an elementalist is the refining of the Origin Magic. Why do you have the wind magic called 'Broken Wind' and the fire magic called 'Blue Flame'? Because they are no longer the magic that the void can have, and they don't even need to be manipulated by spells, their bodies have high lethality. β
