Chapter Seventy-Two: Reflections at the Beginning
"Although the rune enchantment is extremely defensive against magic, it is much weaker against hard objects and fighting energy. www.biquge.info I don't know how to fight and I don't dare to use my fists, if I really smash my fists into it, maybe my fist will be broken, and it won't be broken. Didn't I just tell you that my magic weapon can't even be smashed by myself, so I'll use it to smash the enchantment. Fang Zhen said leisurely.
"I can't imagine how much combat experience you have to have to have such wisdom. However, it is a great thing for me that you won the chief student, and the stronger you are, the happier I am. Lena suddenly said happily.
"Oh, what's going on?"
"If you can beat to the end, the House of Internal Affairs will reward the victor for the service cadets very high. Hee-hee!" Lena began to laugh at the thought of this.
"And what's going on? Then I'll give it my all. Fang Zhen felt that he was in a very good mood now, and he didn't know if it was because he had just won the duel, or because of Lena's sincere bright smile, which washed away Gu Xin's departure mood.
"Tuk tuk!" suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Fang Zhen was stunned for a moment, but still motioned for Lena to open the door.
"Hahaha! Solomon-san, you really didn't disappoint me. A hearty, magnetic voice rang out.
The man who came in was Narsas.
Narthas came in politely, picked up a bottle of "Green Rain Dew", sat opposite Fang Zhen, and drank heavily.
"So it seems that you have also become the winner of the group stage, squad leader?" Fang Zhen smiled.
"Yes, all four group stages have just ended, and the results have been drawn. Narthas nodded and said.
"And what the result?"
"In the first group, the winner is me. In the second group, the winner was the Rock Witch Carrien Fio. The third group is a student of the Danik Branch, Artie Hinton, known as the 'Children of Light'. The fourth group is you. Narthas said slowly.
Hearing this result, after thinking for a while, Fang Zhen asked, "Then next, is the semi-finals?"
Narthas nodded and said, "In the next battle, I will fight the Rock Witch, and you will fight Artie Hinton." ”
"Are you sure about the Rock Witch?" Fang Zhen thought for a while and asked.
"I'm confident of beating her, even though she's beaten her in the last few duels without showing much strength. Speaking of this, Narthas's eyes flashed with a gleam, as if the whole person had become taller.
"Very well, I believe you have the strength. If we win, we can meet again, and at that point, I won't be holding back. Fang Zhen raised the wine in his hand to Narsas, expressing trust and respect.
Narthas also raised the wine in his hand, took a sip, and said, "I'm really looking forward to fighting you again, but your opponent is more troublesome, so don't take the enemy lightly." ”
"What's so powerful about this 'Child of Light' that you can actually pay attention to?" Fang Zhen wondered.
"Artie Hinton, the family comes from the alchemy city of the Binus Alliance community in the south of the continent. The family has had excellent alchemists for generations, but instead of going to the Bot Academy in Alchemy City, he came to Samikina, although it is strange, this person is indeed a genius among geniuses in alchemy. Based on the light magic weapon he used in his previous duels, the Light Breaker, it is said that he made it alone. Narthas explained slowly.
After listening to Narsath's explanation, Fang Zhen pondered.
The Alchemy City has existed since tens of thousands of years ago, although it has been destroyed several times and rebuilt several times during this period, it has still been passed down strongly, and has become one of the top ten ancient cities of Baimeng.
And Bot College is one of the most prestigious institutions of higher learning among the alchemy colleges in the Alchemy City. It can be said that Bot Alchemy Academy is the top academy in the whole continent.
However, this Artie Hinton, as an alchemy family in the Alchemy City, did not study at Bot College, but came to the Dania Branch in Samikina. Even ordinary people will know when they think about it with their toes, there must be something strange in this. As for what's weird, no one knows.
However, these things were not within Fang Zhen's scope at all. So Fang Zhen didn't bother to think about it, but what made Fang Zhen curious was what Narthas said, Artie Hinton's alchemy weapon, the Light Destroyer, was what it was.
------------------------------
After chatting with Narthas for a while, Fang Zhen left the dueling arena, after all, the next match was the day after tomorrow, and staying in the dueling arena would only be pestered by those fanatical supporters.
Back in the bedroom, Fang Zhen immediately took off his boots. After all, the bottom of the foot board is cold, and it feels very uncomfortable, like a cold air rising from the bottom of the foot board, and this is almost the feeling of hitting a ghost.
Barefoot, lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling depicted with murals, Fang Zhen didn't know what he was thinking.
Gu Xin returned to the family, and he was left alone in the entire bedroom, and Fang Zhen suddenly felt a little lonely.
"Loneliness, haven't I been used to it for a long time?" Fang Zhen smiled self-deprecatingly.
Outside the window, a gentle breeze blows, and the sun is close to dusk, shining obliquely on the floor.
I don't know why, Fang Zhen suddenly remembered the old immortal. This mysterious old man who didn't even want to tell Fang Zhen his name.
For this rogue old man who reshaped Fang Zhen, Fang Zhen already regarded him as his first relative in the other world.
They lived together for ten years, during which they taught magic, magic runes and magic circles, and alchemy. Although it is full of basic knowledge, it also makes Fang Zhen very happy.
If it weren't for the strength of the old immortal who reshaped his body and gave his soul the power of the otherworldly elements, Fang Zhen really wouldn't have reached his current level.
Because he couldn't sense any qi and the corresponding natural power of heaven and earth, Fang Zhen couldn't cultivate. Moreover, he has already been shaped into an elemental body, and he can't cultivate his fighting spirit at the same time.
In the past ten years, in addition to practicing these magics, it is to play with the old immortal madness. That is, the practice of the old immortal.
It's not quite right to say it's practice, and the word abuse is quite appropriate.
Every time, it was Fang Zhen who poured out his strength and wisdom, exhausted his magic power and mental power, and forced the old immortal to use such a little trick to flatten Fang Zhen again, or send a "thug"-that is, the earth puppet, to chase Fang Zhen for several sleepless nights before exhausting Fang Zhen's physical strength.
In the past ten years, Fang Zhen has enjoyed the most easily and aggrieved days. What does it mean to be drunk and dream of death? Perhaps to change the word, it is more appropriate to live and die in pain.
On Earth, only Fang Zhen has ever calculated and flattened others, and he has never tried to be so ruined.
It's just that the good times of the past will eventually become memories. Even the most painful things have a day when they are said with a smile.
Although I don't know why I somehow became the inheritor of some goddess, I inexplicably met the old immortal, and inexplicably came to this world, but since I came, I will play more.
For an explorer, exploring the unknown is the happiest thing.
--------------------------------------------------
The next day, early in the morning.
Fang Zhen, who was still asleep, was woken up by a knock on the door.
Squinting his eyes and opening the door, Fang Zhen saw a little bear standing outside the door.
Oh, not the bear, it's a lot like Winnie the Pooh's Akron. Also carrying a backpack.
"Hey, Bundy, you just got up just by looking at you. Akron smiled and walked into the bedroom.
Rubbing his hair, Fang Zhen went back to the bed and lay down again.
"If it weren't for you, I'd have wanted to sleep until tomorrow. There is water on the table, go and drink it yourself. Fang Zhen's deep voice came from the quilt.
Akron unceremoniously poured himself a glass of water and said, "You have a good environment here, it's quite elegant, unlike my bedroom, it's just a shed for supporting demonic beasts." ”
"Are you here today, Auntie, and suddenly come to me to get your aunt's towel?" Fang Zhen turned his head and said to Akron.
"I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm going to surprise you today!" said Akron.
After thinking for a while, Fang Zhen suddenly jumped and sat up, and asked, "My goods have arrived?"
"Hee-hee, of course. Akron grinned as he took over his backpack and pulled out a long box.
Fang Zhen hurriedly sat down and handed over the wooden box.
"Hahaha, sure enough, the old ones don't go, the new ones don't come, I've been waiting for a month. Tut-tut, so excited. Fang Zhen opened the long box excitedly.
I saw a pair of glowing boots lying straight in the long box.
It doesn't have a gorgeous appearance, but the shape of the boots is particularly good-looking.
Flowing stripes, simple black metal shell, khaki boots, several mysterious patterns engraved on the shell. There are several grooves on the sides, and judging by their size, it seems that vertical cuttings can be put in.
Caressing the boots with love, Fang Zhen was fascinated.
Akron looked at the boots with a sense of accomplishment and said, "Well, these boots are made by myself, and the workmanship is unprecedentedly fine, but I really can't do many techniques if my mentor didn't teach me." By the way, I heard my mentor say that this is an imitation of an artifact, is that right?"
Fang Zhen nodded and said, "Because I heard that the research institute of the Dania Branch Academy is researching artifacts and making imitations of artifacts at the same time, I wanted to try my luck, but I didn't expect it to really happen to me, oops, Akron, if you have a place to find me in the future, even if you go to find a dancer together, I will help you pay the bill." After saying that, he happily patted Akron on the shoulder a few times.
Akron smiled wordlessly and bitterly, he was also very happy for Fang Zhen's kind gesture.
"By the way, what kind of artifact are these boots of yours? Why don't I know, I can't find them after a lot of books?" asked Akron.
"Hehe, I won't tell you!" Fang Zhen suddenly smiled cheaply.
----------------------------------------
The next day, the summit dueling arena
In the upcoming semi-finals, Fang Zhen will face Artie "Child of Light" Hinton at the Summit Duel Arena, one of the largest dueling arenas. Of course, the choice of venue is randomly selected by the school.
As one of the largest dueling arenas, the peak dueling arena must be much larger than the desert dueling arena that Fang Zhen had fought before, and it can accommodate a very large number of spectators.
"Throat ......! pop ......" A burst of passionate music sounded, as if a hero had appeared on the stage.
"Dear Cadet Instructors, today is the semi-finals of the first-year chief student competition, and the first semi-final will be held in our place, the Peak Duel Arena! At the same time, the semi-finals will also be held in the Swamp Duel Arena. A young man in a gown and stepping on a suspended stone slab above the dueling arena announced.
In the huge dueling arena, the voice of this young man, that is, the host, could be heard very clearly by all the audience, and without the help of wind sounders.
"And then it's going to be a very exciting duel, because both sides of the duel have amazing abilities. The male host suddenly turned around, pointed to the entrance of a dueling arena, and said, "First of all, allow me to introduce the most outstanding member of the Hinton family, who is from the city of alchemy and has been alchemists for generations, 'Child of Light' Artie Hinton!"
As soon as the words fell, the door to the entrance to the dueling arena, that is, the exit of the rest room, slowly opened, and a white figure walked out.
It was Artie Silverton.
At this time, many spectators at the scene were shouting the name of "Children of Light", and some people were holding long flags and waving them.
Artie Hinton was dressed in a white and gold-rimmed cadet uniform, and her whole body glowed in a misty milky white glow in the sunlight, as if rippling with a holy breath.
"Artie Hinton is a genius in alchemy from the Dania Branch, and the light destroyer he made himself surprised the alchemy instructors of Dania, with the light destroyer, Artie Silverton has never met an opponent, and who is his opponent?" said the male host slowly.
"On the other side, there is the hottest student of this year, faster than the wind, a blend of ice and fire, from Bundy Solomon from the Osiris branch academy!"
With the male host's voice high, in the audience, Fang Zhen's supporters suddenly came to cheer.
And depending on the situation, Fang Zhen's supporters are obviously much more than Artie's.
"Solomon, Solomon, Solomon!" the supporters cried, and Fang Zhen slowly walked out of the rest room and stepped into the rocky dueling arena.
The summit dueling arena, the site simulates the summit of a mountain peak, full of fractured black rock, and in the middle are two huge cone-shaped stone mountains, piled up to form the top of the peak.
Fang Zhen and Artie looked at each other from afar, both looking at each other.
