Chapter 213: A Doomed Victory
Rob went from being the son of an obscure grocery store owner to being a proud disciple of Gaines and the future patron saint of the Terran race in just a few years.
People couldn't help but be a little skeptical in their amazement, even if he entered the ranks of the sixth-order quasi-magister at the age of less than twenty years old and performed strongly, there were still many people who were skeptical of the claims that he was comparable to Roland and had a magical future.
However, several of the Wizards' Guild leaders, Steins, Arbus, Deman, and others seem to have always believed in this.
This also makes many people puzzled why these big names value a teenager so much.
And today, Rob's performance on the top of Mount Annarip answers that question in a sense.
Among his many talents, one of the core and most powerful is his ability to learn.
It was this ability to learn that made Steines and Deman determined to lock him up in the Tower, because they couldn't bear to use this precious talent for anything other than magic, which was the most shameful waste in the eyes of the vice-principal, and there was no desire to see his limits.
It's just that eight years have passed, and the two still haven't gotten the answers they want.
Rob was completely like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, but even so, in the face of the ever-shortening time limit, he was still able to complete the required homework before the deadline, which also surprised the two old men.
Perhaps even the boy himself didn't realize how powerful this talent really was.
Until today, in the face of unprecedented terrifying pressure, in a desperate situation where there is no hope in sight, this talent finally broke out and there is no reservation.
But even then, it's not enough.
It's not easy to understand how magic can be restructured with a whole new set of rules, and for most magicians, it probably won't lead to anything in their lifetime.
And the reason why Rob was able to initially master this new rule in just two minutes is inseparable from two things, the first is the brooch treasure he obtained in the dungeon of the Endless Sea of Trees, in which the strange structure once helped him unlock Merlin's magic array [Lost Lock], and today this structure actually played a role again when he analyzed the rules of the light giant.
The second is the focus of his recent research - mimic magic, Rob has always had a vague conjecture when he began to study mimicry magic, divine power and magic are actually of the same origin, the same power is forcibly divided into two parts, Roland's magic system is the only missing part related to life, and the divine art represented by healing art just symbolizes the power of life.
It's just that this speculation is so shocking that even Rob himself feels a little whimsical, until today, the light giant's finger at him finally confirmed something.
The thing that appeared on Agameler's peak at this moment was, in a sense, half of Rob's teacher, and put a correct answer in front of him in his confusion and doubt.
And it is precisely because of all the foreshadowing and preparation before that Rob was able to crack that rule in less than two minutes and turn it into his own.
However, there was too little time left for him after all, he could only reluctantly integrate this rule into the most ordinary fireball technique, no matter how complex the magic was, it would take more time to study, but it seemed that the light giant in front of him did not intend to give him this opportunity.
The next moment, I saw the light giant raise his arm again.
This time, its attack did not have any fancy, it was a simple palm, falling from the top of Rob's head, like Mount Tai pressing the top, the clouds were directly hit by this palm through a hole, and the thunder in the sky was also quiet at this moment.
Under the terrifying pressure on his face, Rob's expression became calmer and calmer, he was not in a hurry, until the giant hand was less than three feet away from his head, he reached out, pulled out the starfall on his waist, drew an arc on his chest, and finally stopped above his head.
The blade of the sword intersected with the fingertips, and the giant hand did not move, but the future super mage could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood, but the next moment the magic crystal on the top of the staff also lit up.
Fireballs rose one after another, forming a wall of fire against the giant hand.
However, this time the light giant was prepared, and the light in the palm of his hand suddenly shone brightly, and this light met the wall of fire, like water meeting fire, constantly evaporating and melting, but at the same time, those fireballs were also extinguished in turn.
Winning or losing, in the end, turned into a simple contest of mana.
The magic in Rob's body is burning and passing wildly, and on the contrary, the light giant is also dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye, but compared to the boy, the huge size of the light giant undoubtedly takes a big advantage, so it is obviously the more disadvantaged side for Rob to consume.
Until a crisp chirp came from the sky, and Bevinadette waved her red wings out of the wind and snow, and landed on Rob's shoulder around the palm.
The next moment, the young mana, which was on the verge of exhaustion, became full again.
The light giant seemed to be a little surprised, but it didn't panic because of this, its body had been consumed by about a third, and if it continued like this, the huge amount of magic stored in Bevi Nadette's body could completely consume it alive.
But it's not for nothing that the Light Giant chooses this simple and brutal attack.
Feeling the movement of the magical elements around him, Rob sighed softly.
The next moment, the light giant's chest suddenly collapsed, and with the heart as the origin, the surrounding magical elements began to pour wildly into its body.
It was like a balloon, it swelled violently, and its body, which had been shrunk and transparent, became huge and clear again, but in just a few breaths, it grew bigger than before.
Not only has all the mana lost before been replaced, but it has become stronger than ever.
On the other hand, although Rob has the help of Bevinadette, how can the mana of the two compete with the entire heaven and earth, the pressure on Rob's shoulders increased suddenly, and the stars in his hand sank, and this famous sword was about to enter the footsteps of revenge.
The light giant's faceless face did not show any excitement, such a result was originally expected, Rob's performance tonight is not outstanding, I am afraid that anyone here will not be able to support it until now, but this will not change anything.
Victory or defeat was predestined from the beginning.
