Chapter 20 The beginning of love
The Oslan Empire, located in the northern part of the continent, had short summers, and these days the northwesterly winds brought chill over the Saint-Jolmain Mountains. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info has made the city of Lisbon a lot cooler.
The Imperial Capital Academy of Magic in Lisbon is gearing up for next month's magic competition.
In the center of the Academy of Magic, there is a place where all kinds of magical elves gather. Now here there is a huge playing field being built. Wood mages skillfully urge animals and plants to build platforms, water mages are busy arranging magic arrays, and arcane mages manipulate magic mechs to carry things. Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
On the other side, in the training ground of the Academy of Magic, a game is now being prepared. The three students assigned by each academy were already waiting for the start of the competition under the platform.
In the past three months, due to the large number of wind magic elves, the number of people learning wind magic has gradually begun to increase. Until the last few days, the number of people in the Wind Magic Academy had exceeded fifty people.
In addition, because of the magic array invented by Bert to transmit magic elves, the magic level of new students is progressing very quickly. In the stands of the Wind Academy, it was obvious that there were many new faces who were at the elementary level or above.
And Barlow, who represented the Wind Academy, has also been promoted to the advanced level, which is also the first high-level magician from the Wind Academy in the past ten years. Although Barlow has just advanced, he is not proficient in the operation of high-level magic, but at least it is on the table.
The biggest beneficiary of the last magic runaway incident was naturally Bert, the compressed magic elf was forcibly pressed into his body, and the number of magic elves in Bert's body at that time had reached the level of a high-level magician. It's a pity that at that time, because of Bert's poor foundation, his level of controlling magic elves was not high. In addition, he was banned for three months, resulting in the loss of a large number of magic elves. But even so, Bert's current rank is already an intermediate magician. And in terms of the number of magic elves, it is definitely not less than the one in Barlow's body.
The third person to represent the Wind Academy was a girl from the Wind Academy named Sophia, who was privately called a nerd. But in fact, Sophia is not stupid, but she prefers to study magic knowledge when it comes to magic, and she doesn't care about magic level or anything like that. With such a small helper, Lan Dao is also a lot easier, and the education of new students is directly handed over to Sophia and Barlow.
Although Sophia is obsessed with magical knowledge, it does not mean that her magical ability is low, and Sophia, who is only sixteen years old, has already reached the level of an intermediate magician. Because of the solid basics, Sophia is quite proficient in the use of some magical knowledge. Prior to the runaway event, Bert had practiced with Sophia, and each time he had failed miserably.
In stark contrast to the Wind Academy is the Fire Academy, where all the contestants are high-level magicians, if it weren't for the fact that the competition restricts those over twenty-five years old from participating in the competition, it is estimated that the Fire Academy can send students who are very close to the level of the Magister.
On the other side of the platform, Bert spotted Erin standing among the Arcane students. In half a year, Erin has broken through the level of an intermediate magician and reached the level of a high-level magician. A light blue magic robe is fresh and elegant, and her beautiful and pure face makes her the focus of the field.
。 There are a total of fifteen contestants, and the first one will have a magic duel, and the fifteen people will first compete in the triathlon competition, and the last place will be eliminated in each round, and the remaining twelve people will draw lots for a one-on-one magic duel, until the top three are left to represent the school in the magic competition.
The triathlon competition is divided into three events, the first of which is a magic test. Contestants need to inject their own magic power into the magic crystals of their own department to test the number of magic spirits they have. Magic crystals are produced near magic springs all over the continent. Depending on the place of origin, the magic crystals themselves carry different magical attributes. For example, magic crystals collected from near lava can absorb fire and all fire sub-types of magic spirits. Magic crystals salvaged from the deep sea can absorb magic spirits from the water system and its branches. Magic crystals themselves are very valuable mana storage containers, and some travelers will buy small magic crystals at a high price for a rainy day.
The magic crystals in the mana test are quite large, and it is almost impossible to fully fill them. Therefore, this can also test the contestant's control of his own magic, if the contestant does not control it well, it will cause prostration or even magic backlash, in which case it will be directly judged negative. Finally, the number of magic spirits in the magic crystal is scored.
The second is the Magic Recovery Test. After the first round of the competition, the contestants compete in the recovery of mana. The speed of mana recovery is very important in battle, and mages are physically weak and often face mana depletion in actual combat. This is the time to test the recovery speed of the mage, and some experienced mages can regenerate mana at the same time in battle, thus prolonging the battle time. In this game, the slowest player is eliminated until the mana is restored to a full state. In its full state, the Magic Spirit will no longer be able to enter the body, but will linger around the Magician's body without dispersing.
The third is a test of proficiency in the use of magic. There will be a dedicated area at the training ground. Competitors need to use magic to smash fast-moving frisbees from 10 meters away, and the final score is based on the number of frisbees broken, and the one with the lowest score is eliminated.
There is still some time before the start of the competition, everyone is trying their best to adjust their condition, and many people are participating for the first time, so it is inevitable that they will be a little nervous. For example, Bert was quite nervous at this time, all the contestants were the elites of various academies, and most of them were at the level of high-level magicians. Barlow is participating in the second competition this year, but he is relatively calm, seeing that Bert, who is usually very aggressive, is so nervous that his forehead is sweating, he patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Take it easy, just do your best." ”
"Bert!" Erin spotted Bert hiding nearby, and waved at him in the distance. This can attract him countless eyes, although Bert's appearance is not ugly, but at most he is above average. Looking at the magic level, he is only an intermediate magician. And Eileen's beauty is recognized in the academy. At only seventeen years old, she has become a high-level mage, and is also the first apprentice of the Time Magister. Many sons and brothers from noble backgrounds have secretly written letters to Eileen, but they have never responded. I didn't expect this stunning beauty to greet an inconspicuous little role so enthusiastically.
What's even more unexpected is that Bert hasn't moved yet, and Erin runs towards him first. The girl's steps are light, her long black hair is as delicate and soft as flowing water, and the wind brought by running stirs her hair fluttering in the air, like a willow tree that has just sprouted in the new year. It seems to be like the closed moon of green clouds, and it is like the snow of the flowing wind. Bert kept repeating a phrase in his head.
"It seems to be like the moon in the clouds, and it is like the snow in the wind. "From a book of poems by a very famous wandering poet Cao Zijian. Bert had seen this sentence in the college library, and many people present at this time would sigh in their hearts.
I haven't seen her for a few months, and Ireen is getting more and more feminine. The girl's crystal clear snow skin shimmered with an ivory-like halo, and the soft lines of the snow-white skin were like a water hibiscus and clotted snow lotus, because of the running, Fang Jing was flushed like fire, and the black and long eyelashes tightly covered the pair of water-cut autumn pupils.
"After you came out, your master locked you in the dormitory and didn't let you see anyone. I haven't seen you in a long time!" Erin said with a slightly blushing face, feigned anger.
Bert was stunned for a while, and when he saw that Bert still looked cute, Erin couldn't help but laugh, "Teasing you, haha." ”
Bert scratched his head helplessly, he couldn't do anything about Eileen. Just then, a red figure came into his line of sight.
A young man in a red ** Dharma robe walked towards them, followed by two people who were also wearing the same clothes. These three people are all high-level magicians! These three people are in their early twenties. And Bert saw in their eyes that they were by no means good.
The man in the lead spoke: "Hello, I'm Lucas Meroving. The man gestured to the man on his left, "He's my cousin, Passas, and the other is Rucimar." You're Bert, aren't you?"
Bert and Irene didn't expect to meet someone from the Merovingian family here. Could it be that the incident at the city gate was discovered before?
There is a rule in the Academy of Magic that no student at the Academy of Magic is allowed to say their full name, which means that they are not allowed to introduce themselves with their family name. Because the Academy of Magic is a fair place, no matter how noble you are, as long as you enter the Academy of Magic, everything is only based on strength.
"That's right, I'm Bert. "Could it be that this Lucas is here for himself?
Lucas smiled disdainfully, "I thought the master was so good at the students who robbed Lan Dao before? The other two laughed unscrupulously at Lucas as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.
It turns out that the people of the Merovingian family are so annoying, Bert sighed silently in his heart. Bert had a good temper and didn't care about that, but Erin wasn't. Erin, who is also a high-level magician, can't stand the temper of their stubborn children. The heart turns at will, and a "time stop" has appeared in the hand.
The three of them were shocked, although "Time Stop" was only an intermediate magic, but Erin didn't even need to meditate, and it could be released in an instant. This spell casting speed has reached the realm of a magister!
Bert quickly took Erin's hand, he knew very well that Erin was the kind of girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth, but if she started to do it, everyone would have no good fruit to eat.
It's just that this small action made Erin instantly blush like a peach, and she almost uncontrolled her magic and released it. Frightened, the three men fled.
In fact, all the mages are not willing to fight against the time mage, not because they are powerful, but on the contrary, the time mage can do the lowest damage. It's just that their magic is all controlling, and as long as they hit one, there will be a continuous stream of magic controls to follow. It doesn't hurt, but it's hard to stay still. And judging from Erin's spell casting speed, it was still very easy to hold the three of them.
Bert didn't notice that he was still holding Eileen's hand, and thought that Erin was angry when he blushed, "Forget it, more is better than less, and they didn't do anything bad." ”
Erin looked back embarrassedly and said, "That's... You let go of my hand... So many people. At this time, Bert reacted and quickly let go of the groping hand.
Seeing that so many people's eyes were focused on him, Bert scratched his head in embarrassment. This action has become a habit, as long as it is embarrassing, Bert likes to scratch his head.
