Chapter 4: Lilia 3

"Hey, didn't the guy in armor come? Oh yes, he took a hammer from me, I'm afraid he's still lying in the infirmary, right?"

The shouter was completely enraged by Lilia's casual attitude, and was about to start using the hammer, but was stopped by the young man in the middle of the group. "How many of you were cleaned up like that by such a little girl?" the young man asked, "Don't go outside and embarrass me in the future."www.biquge.info ”

Lilia looked at the young man carefully, probably in his early twenties, with a thin build, a featureless face under his messy flaxen hair, wearing cheap leather armor that could be bought by a dozen passes, and carrying an ordinary long sword at his waist, which could not be remembered if he did not exude maturity that did not match his age.

"You can't just forget about the person you beat me, I wanted to ask someone to find out your whereabouts, since we met here, let's have a fight when I finish the game at hand!" said the young man to Lilia.

"Whatever you want, you're not much better than your rice bucket men anyway. Lilia said defiantly, leading Miloca out of the Resonance Tower.

The match between Milova and Kodila was scheduled at the biggest home stadium as a warm-up match before tonight's finale. Lilia had paid a fortune for a decent position, and had staked two thousand four hundred pas on Miloka in one go—almost all of her and her master's possessions.

The match began with the shouts of the spectators, but the two sides in the audience surprised Lilia, who was full of interest, and she never expected that "Wizard Kodila" would be a young man who had just written a war against her at the Resonance Tower.

"You're the girl in green, aren't you?" shouted Kodila in the field.

"Hmm. Miloca casually responded, and the tens of thousands of spectators had already made him nervous as if he had lost his soul, and beads of sweat dripped down his cheeks, so that he could only keep chanting Lilia's advice.

"Then you should know that she injured my people and caused me to lose a lot of money, right?" asked the young man.

"I don't know. ”

"Well, just win it back from you, let's do it!" said the young man, and the young man stretched out his left fist, and a palm-sized magic circle appeared in front of his fist. Miloka had never seen a real magician, and he didn't know what Kodila was doing, but instinctively felt dangerous. Kodila suddenly flattened his left hand, and the magic circle immediately erupted with swift and ferocious dark purple arcane energy, and rushed straight towards Miloka. The moment the Ao Neng was released, Lilia in the stands couldn't sit still, and Cordila was the only magician she had ever seen who could cast spells with her bare hands.

Miloka subconsciously flipped the blow that she narrowly dodged, and the surging Ao Neng penetrated most of the field, and finally bombarded the iron gate where Miloca entered, shattering several wrist-thick iron rods in an instant.

"Wow, I underestimated you. Kodila was amazed by Miloka's reaction, and then pointed her palm at Miloka, creating an even larger magic circle.

"Gotta get close to him quickly. Miloka thought to himself, he still vividly remembered what Say had told him about magic at Howling Wind Bay—magic being the extraction, reshaping, and releasing of energy from matter. Most mages use magical items such as staffs and rings to store reshaped energy, and when they want to cast a spell, they can cast powerful magic with a simple guide. There are also a small number of powerful mages who are very skilled in the process of casting spells and can complete them in a very short time, so they discard cumbersome magical items. Although this breaks through the limits of energy storage and energy type, it has extremely strict requirements for the mage himself - Miloka knows that the battle must be resolved as soon as possible, and if Say's words are true, Kodila will not be an opponent himself, and the only way to do his best is to interfere with Kodila's spell and defeat the enemy with one blow. With that in mind, Miloka began to move quickly towards Kodila. Although the distance between the two was not very far, Miloka's charge was not smooth, and the mass of arcane energy that poured out of Kodila's magic circle frequently smashed in front of Miloka, hindering his progress.

Lilia in the stands became more and more uneasy, the situation in the field was completely beyond her expectations, and Cordila was simply playing with Miloca, and the taunt that kept beating at the corners of his mouth was clearly visible to Lilia. What bothers Lilia even more is her misjudgment of Kodila, she could never have imagined that she would pick an opponent who deliberately hides her strength, and seeing Miloka struggle to dodge Cordila's unleashed Arcane, Lilia regrets her previous wounding of Kodila's men. Although the rules of the arena explicitly prohibit killing opponents, it would be easy to cripple Miloka as long as Kodila was happy, and judging by Kodila's current behavior, this is highly likely.

After a lot of twists and turns, Miloca finally brought Kodila into the attack, and the stands erupted in frantic shouts. In the eyes of the audience, the swordsman was lucky, and every blow of the magician was like a barrel of inferior dark beer, staggering to the ground in front of the swordsman, never hit. Now that the magician is approached by the swordsman, the end is obvious. In fact, the people who come to the Colosseum are the last to see a magician participate, although dazzling spells can add a lot of color to the game, but even the noble ladies who have never touched a sword know that there is no variability in this kind of competition, and whether the magician is directly determined by the close quarters, so the game always ends quickly, so fast that it is not worth spending money on a cold seat.

"Ahh "It's a winning blow. Even Lilia in the stands thought so, Cordila's mastery of manipulating magic made her almost desperate for this match, even if Miloka was lucky enough to dodge Cordila's attack, she still didn't believe that the tide of the battle could change, but she had to admit that Miloca's counterattack was perfect, both the timing of the jump and the angle of the slash were impeccable, as if she had seen Kodila kneeling on the ground with the blade embedded in her shoulder blade and crying for mercy.

But Miloca's brilliant slash failed to defeat Kodila, as his rusty sword was held in solid by Kodila's rapidly condensed shield-like arcane energy, and his airy body crashed into Kodila by inertia.

"Part-time?" Miloka's eyes were full of surprise, he remembered that Say had also talked about the schools of magic - just as swordsmanship was divided into conservative and radical schools, magic was divided into six specializations: wind, stone, fire, ice, electricity, and arcane energy, and molding, protection, enchantment, illusion, change, summoning, manipulating, exploring, There are nine factions of spells, and usually mages will have several specializations to ensure the smooth casting of spells, but only one faction will be chosen to delve into, because each faction has so much knowledge that few mages can live to fully master a faction.

"That's right!" said Kodila with an excited smile, supporting Miloka's falling body with her right hand, and immediately erupted from her right hand to throw him higher into the air. Miloca felt a heart-rending pain in her chest, then fell hard ten yards away. He fought the pain with all his might, and stood up trembling with his sword in hand, staring at Khodilla as he drew his sword.

"You're an interesting opponent, and it's a shame to end the showdown like this. Kodila said, closing in on Miloka, "Come on, let's fight with our swords." ”

Lilia watched the sword fight between the two intently, and although she didn't know how to swordsmanship, she could tell from Kodila's fierce attack that he was a swordsman of extraordinary strength, at least above Miloca.

There was a wave of amazement from the stands, and the crowd was amazed by Kodila's swordsmanship, who now knew that magicians weren't all sick and weak. And the managers of the Colosseum are regretting that they underestimated the magician, arranging such a wonderful game as a bonus for six silver coins per seat.

Soon, Kodila won again by a landslide - a bruised Miloka fell to his knees, unable to fight back. Kodila put his sword against Miloca's neck and arrogantly asked, "Do you throw in the towel?"

Miloka was silent, just staring stubbornly at Kodila.

"Don't try to look for a chance to fight back, you're not worth five hundred pas, and you won't be able to win against me anyway. Kodila put away her sword and turned to salute the spectators in the stands, as if to show off her victory. The referee and moderator in charge of judging the winner stood up from the stands and was about to announce the result of the match, when Miloca suddenly slashed at Kodila's back, the blade of the sword slashed through Kodila's leather armor, and fiercely tore out a wound that was almost a yard long, and in an instant blood gushed like a spring.

"My teacher taught me never to give up. Miloka said coldly.

Cordila's body faded to the cheers of the crowd, and he looked at Lilia in the stands with an intriguing smile.
