Chapter 51: The Playing Field
The sunrise of the next day seemed to be earlier than usual, and when Yi Fan was still practicing magic over and over again in the sea of consciousness, the dawn of the sun had already shone on the earth through the overlapping leaves.
"Get up, Yi Fan!" Because it is a heroic spirit, Saber does not need to sleep, but according to Yi Fan, in order to make her live more like a normal human being, she usually sleeps in the room adjacent to Yi Fan at night.
"Well, I know!" The advantage of being a magician is that you can stay awake anytime and anywhere, so at the same time as Saber's voice came, Yi Fan also opened his eyes.
Today is the start of the official competition, so he must get up early to maintain the best combat condition! After all, until now, he is only a high-level magician, although in the eyes of humans, his progress speed is already comparable to the speed of God, but in the elven world, his strength is obviously not powerful!
As I saw at the beginning yesterday, the venue for this competition was set up in a building similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome surrounded by countless tree people! So after Yi Fan got up, he didn't stop too much, just tidied up his equipment a little, and walked towards the place where he had told Simon and them yesterday with Saber in a stealth state.
He was wearing the Mithril Armor he had made himself, but out of an abundance of caution, he had Saber use the same magic that concealed the Sword of Victory of the Oath to hide all the mesh Mithril filaments at the bottom of the armor that were used to channel magic.
In his hand was the Forgotten Love he had received from Perrault, a staff that allowed him to use the magic of the manifest substance more quickly by touching the medium when he used magic that was not a summoned creature. Moreover, according to Perrault, behind this staff, there is also a secret hidden enough to make the entire elven world turbulent!
"Lord Divine Messenger, you're here!" From a distance, Yi Fan saw several figures waiting for him in front of him, and the first person who looked the tallest looked at him, and after seeing Yi Fan, he immediately came over to greet him.
"Yes. "That person, it was the middle-aged elf who came in with Othello when he first talked to Simon, according to Saber, he had the same special aura as Dior, so Yi Fan subconsciously became a little more vigilant about him.
And right behind the elf, apart from Connor and Forte, Simon and Aethra had already brought the others with them.
"Lord Divine Envoy, you should already know the specific rules of the competition, right?" When the people on both sides met, Simon didn't bother to ask about anything else, and said directly to Yi Fan.
"Well, of course, after all, the Patriarch and Aethera had already told me a few times before this!" Yi Fan continued as he walked towards the place of the competition with them: "It's that each tribe will send four representatives first, and then the team finals of the same four people will be held to select the strongest team!"
Yi Fan answered Simon's question while observing left and right, only to find that right next to their group, many elves wearing the costumes of other tribes had also appeared. Even the Dark Moon Clan, who was very arrogant in the garden at the beginning, was led by a strange man at this time, and followed Yi Fan and them towards the arena.
"That's right, the one-on-one winner can get a bottle of water of life provided by the Darkmoon tribe, but for the sake of fairness, the prize will only be given to the winner after the team competition is over!" Speaking of this, Simon also paused deliberately, and then raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "And the tribe where the winner of the team competition belongs will be the holder of the moon well." ”
"Oh, that is to say, this time, is the team competition really the most crucial?" Vaguely, Yi Fan felt that there seemed to be someone in the team who was quietly watching him except for Aethra, but out of the dignity of a divine envoy, he did not directly turn back to confirm the owner of that look.
But he knew that Saber, who had always hid in the shadows, would eventually tell him who that look was if he had the chance.
Because they were originally living near the competition venue, they didn't have to wait for a while, and Yi Fan and the others had already arrived at the huge building surrounded by the tree people, which was used for the competition.
Looking at everything in front of him, Yi Fan felt a deep shock and surprise, and even a little trance, because the competition arena in front of him was actually like the gymnasium of his previous life!
It's been more than a month since I left the original world, whether it's Beckham or Kobe Bryant, these people have become a thing of the past forever for me, but I didn't expect to be able to meet such a place in this world that more or less reminds me of the past.
Around the arena, there were all high walls made of special materials, and on top of that high wall, there were special seats for spectators, and there were already many elves who had entered first, and they were already sitting there.
The surface of the high wall is all made of magic patterns carved by the excellent magicians of the Night Clan for almost half a month, probably to prevent them from being affected by the magic of the moon well outside during the game, so they specially created the kind of defensive magic that can isolate the magic inside and outside.
And the reason why those treemen are responsible for guarding the outermost extension of the playing field, according to Simon told him last night, is actually to ensure the full fairness of the game, after all, with those treemen with good vision guarding around, ordinary elves can't play any tricks.
And in the center of the competition venue, there are six huge rings that have been built, even if Yi Fan has not approached yet, he can clearly feel that there is a huge magic power hidden on each ring!
You must know that everyone who participates in the competition is a person who has mastered all kinds of magic and martial arts, so there will be this level of preparation, Yi Fan also thinks it is understandable.
"Lord Divine Envoy, let's go over there first!" Just as Yi Fan was looking around, feeling the aura of the game that was completely different from the previous world, Simon, who was leading the way in front, suddenly pointed to the most central audience seat and said to Yi Fan.
Squinting slightly, Yi Fan had already noticed that the people sitting in that area were all important people from various tribes, except for the patriarchs who had a relationship with each other yesterday, beside them, there were also many old men who felt very powerful just by looking at their appearance.
And it was at this time that Yi Fan also noticed Connor and Fortai, who he hadn't seen at first, who were sitting in a slightly empty row at this time, obviously waiting for Simon and them.
These two guys, came here so early, is there any purpose? There were too many strangers on the high platform, so Yi Fan didn't pay much attention, just thought silently in his heart.
"No need, after all, I'm also going to participate in the competition today, so I don't need to go up there!" After thinking about it for a while, Yi Fan rejected Simon's proposal, because for him as a visitor from another world, there are still many things in this world that he needs to take the initiative to understand.
Looking at those white light curtains floating in the air, Yi Fan couldn't help but think in his heart that before the game started, he seemed to feel that there were still many interesting things in this world.
"Well, the news of the start of the game will be told to everyone through magic, Lord Divine Envoy, you only need to pay attention to the notification and the venue of the competition, and that's it!" Maybe the invitation itself was just polite, so after hearing Yi Fan say that, Simon didn't ask too much, and then took a few other people and walked towards the location of the other patriarchs.
"Then, that, let me accompany the Divine Envoy......" At this moment, there was a discordant sound from the crowd, and the girl with the same fiery red hair as Ciel raised her hand shyly and said softly.
