Chapter 5 The Three Princes Who Opened the Hang
After the competition entered the top 10 stage, it was moved to the school's official martial arts arena. The arena is in the shape of a low center and high stands, and it is so large that the school's more than 2,000 students cannot sit in the audience.
The big competition of the Troct Academy of Magic is not only a grand event in the school, but also a lot of powerful people in the Principality of Lane who are following it.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arrived. ”
The third prince was named Edward Churchill, and as you can tell by the title, he was the third son of His Majesty Casper. Although he has two older brothers and many younger siblings below, he is the heir to the throne designated by His Majesty. The third prince is very good, and even his own brother has given up the idea of competing for the throne.
Edward is 21 years old and a level 8 mage. What is the concept of age and rank? Take Myron as an example, if he can maintain one level per year now, then by the age of 21, he will be exactly the same as the three princes. For the average mage, this is simply impossible.
However, it was not his magical talent that helped Edward gain the throne, but his power. It's a general term, but what does it include?
The first is to know people, first of all, let's talk about how powerful this product is in knowing people. If one day, he can sit down and look at Myron calmly for a few minutes, maybe he will be able to see the fact that Myron must not be a thing in the pool (after all, he is the male protagonist). Of course, the third prince is not gay, so he doesn't seem to have the opportunity to meet Myron's eyes face to face.
The second is politics, the third prince has been helping His Majesty Casper to take care of the government since he was 10 years old, not to mention any chaos, and has made a lot of political achievements. What is the concept of 10 years old? At this stage, the boy who knows how to pick up girls is already the best among his peers, but the third prince has to govern all the girls in a country. I have to say, it's a lot harder than learning magic.
Finally, there is the military, in fact, since the Duchy of Lane has the military god Finger, there is no such urgent need for strategic talents. However, the third prince is talented and intelligent, and from time to time he goes to talk to General Finger about military affairs, and he has learned a lot. Although the Three Princes have never actually been on the battlefield, General Finger once mentioned at a cocktail party: "In case of war, you will definitely be able to achieve the name of the Three Princes' military gods." ”
In General Finger's opinion, unless he never fights, he will probably have no opponents if he lets the three princes do it with real swords and guns. What a high evaluation this is! General Finger is not Myron, as a generation of military gods, he is enough to convince everyone in terms of knowledge and credibility.
So, isn't the third prince invincible? Yes, he is quite invincible in the Duchy of Lane, otherwise the crown prince would not have willingly given up the right to inherit the throne. The prince is also big-hearted, the third child is so smart, even if he has something in secret, he can't fight others, it's better to be a little more atmospheric. I have to say that this atmosphere is indeed rare in the imperial family.
With the shouts of the announcer, His Royal Highness the Third Prince came side by side with an old man, followed by two guards who looked very powerful. This old man is the famous Dean Haydn Rutherford, and the mentor of His Royal Highness the Third Prince. The three princes' achievements in magic are inseparable from the careful cultivation of Dean Haydn.
Soon after they were seated, General Finger and the Marquis of Hilton Stirling (Talta's father) arrived. The main purpose of their coming here is naturally to watch their children win the championship.
The Marquis of Stirling was a sleek man, and as Chancellor of the Exchequer, he was not very outstanding in force, relying mainly on hereditary lordship and superior learning. Of course, if you carefully analyze the reasons why the Marquis of Stirling has made his power rise to the top, his strong social skills are definitely the most important.
No, the marquis's own position was not yet hot, so he ran to the third prince to ask for warmth. After a while, he might have to go to General Finger and talk to him about the marriage of his minor children.
Myron's match was the first of the day, and his opponent was Johnny Waters, a demonic and martial arts cultivator. Myron feels that he should also be regarded as a dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, he also has a level 3 fighting spirit now, although he has not learned any combat skills, but his fighting skills in the army are also quite good, at least in the initial stage. Although Myron can't use his fighting skills with his fighting spirit (that is, his attack power is not good), he has a black blade. This knife may seem uncharacteristic, and it is easy to be overlooked, but once it is slashed at the body, it will definitely be enough for the opponent to drink a pot.
However, Myron almost never gets close to the enemy, mainly because his current killer wind condensation blade is very powerful. If this thing is hit correctly, even high-level fighters will be injured, and judging from the defensive strength of the middle-level warrior's body protection and fighting spirit, if it is hit 2-3 times in a row, it will basically lose its combat effectiveness. And the reason why he was able to cut off the bones of orc warriors and necromantic knights in one fell swoop before was because his opponent didn't know how to use Dou Qi to protect his body.
Of course, there are many ways for a warrior to deal with a magician, and it is only a good idea to resist with a protective body. Therefore, if you want to defeat Carl, Myron must give him an unexpected surprise. If Carl fully understands Myron's strength, Myron's probability of winning is not very high, which is why he has been selling cuteness there.
"In the first game, Myron Hawk vs. Johnny Waters, the game begins. ”
Myron's opening was decent, and in the midst of a sigh, he summoned Jing Jing again. In fact, the audience has long been tired of watching Jingjing, and many people have asked whether Myron is playing a game, or his magic puppet is playing. Of course, the referee teacher naturally ignores the audience's opinions, as long as it is recruited by Myron, then even if it is part of the strength of others, even if you keep chattering there, you can't change this fact.
Johnny wasn't surprised that Myron summoned the magic golem directly, in fact, he did study Myron's tactics carefully, and if Myron didn't summon Jing Jing, he would be truly confused. Johnny believes that ordinary warriors can't get around Jing Jing because Myron follows the opposite warrior with Jing Jing as the axis, which exceeds the movement speed of ordinary people, and it is natural that he can't catch up.
If Myron is playing against a mage, it's actually quite a bully. A warrior with a magical shield to cut down a mage is naturally unable to deal with these junior mages who have no combat experience. In fact, Johnny is also this kind of person. It's just that his magical shield doesn't last as long as Myron.
As for how to play this game with Myron, Johnny actually had a calculation in his heart. He first added a magic flirtatious and magical acceleration to himself, one of which could reduce his weight and the other increase his speed, and the two would work better when used together. In the end, he was still a little uneasy, and let himself float a magic shield in front of him.
Two acceleration magics were added to his body, making Johnny suddenly agile and elegant, he quickly approached Myron, and made a few moves with Jing Jing to understand Jing Jing's combat power.
Myron knew that Johnny was a mage, so he blessed Jingjing and himself with a magic shield in advance. The magic shield does not envelop the whole body, it is actually just a round shield with a diameter of about 50cm. When summoned, this shield circles around its owner and automatically senses surrounding it. In other words, this shield is still quite effective in blocking primary magic, but after reaching the intermediate level, the range of action of many magic is very large, and the effect of this shield is not obvious.
The quiet way of fighting was as direct as ever, her sword wide open and closed, completely ignoring defense. And although she has a shield on her left hand, she rarely uses it to block, and most of the time she swings it with her weapon. Even a shield without a blade hurts when it is smashed.
Johnny and Jing Jing circled for a few rounds before finding a good opportunity, he took advantage of Jing Jing's move to use the old moment to pan out, this moment to get around Jing Jing is naturally difficult, but Johnny doesn't need to go around, he just needs to find a gap to throw a fireball. Myron and Johnny are quite close, only 3-4 meters away, and Myron can't avoid it no matter what. Of course, he didn't hide, after all, he also had to give the magic shield in front of him a little room to play.
The magic shield had been circulating in Myron's body for a long time, and as soon as he saw a fireball flying by, he immediately greeted him happily. With a "bang", the fireball exploded on the shield, and then it didn't hit anyone. As the fireball exploded, Myron and Johnny simultaneously calculated the endurance of the magic shield - up to 3.
Myron was shocked: "This fireball is quite fierce." ”
Johnny was also shocked: "This broken shield is quite hard." ”
After the blow, both of them had a new countermeasure in their hearts. Johnny continued to look around Jing Jing for an opportunity, Myron continued to stand behind Jing Jing to hide and seek, and both of them coincidentally held back the magic in their hands for more than ten seconds.
Myron used the Wind Condensation Blade, and the reason why he had to hold it for so long was just to mislead everyone. And why did Johnny hold it for so long, because his level is not good, and it is difficult to set fireballs while playing (mainly due to the influence of mental power), in order to be able to make fireballs smoothly, he can only do it by increasing the cast time. Even so, it's still a decent combat technique that takes a long time of practice to complete.
There were plenty of opportunities to throw fireballs through the silence, and Johnny quickly found another one. But this time he was a little cowardly, because he saw that the wind blade in Myron's hand was getting thinner little by little, and he was wondering if Myron was hanging.
Not only Johnny, but many viewers in the audience saw Myron use the wind blade for the first time, and they couldn't help but get nervous.
Of course, Johnny had to throw the fireball out of his hand first, of course. With the impact of the second fireball, the magic shield in front of Myron was already overwhelmed.
