Maybe someone made a request, or maybe it was the unintentional threat in his request that kept the children from falling into the hell of endless conditions.

Seeing that this group of little hairy heads were silent, Lin Xiao asked with a smile: "So, are you ready?" ”

The children winked at each other and made eye contact for a long time before Rowan came forward and said, "My lord, we're ready." ”

"Good. So old friend, are you ready? Lin turned to Juan again.

Patiently, waiting for the person in front of him to bargain with a group of half-grown children, Juan couldn't wait. Naturally, he nodded heavily and said, "You can go at any time." ”

"Good. Then Stone, please give the order to start. Everyone is positioned. ”

As part of the physical fitness test, Stone is no stranger to giving orders. He walked up to everyone and raised his right hand. And some of the children are scrambling to find a way to squeeze themselves to the front; The other group stood at the back of the pile of children, close together.

There was no gun, no whistle, just a simple wave of his hand down, Stone shouted: "Begin!" And everybody moved.

The children at the front of the queue were, of course, the first to get out. However, except for the first few who really ran hard, the people behind seemed to be running carelessly. They even approached the gate, shoulder to shoulder, and everyone formed a human wall, blocking the road outside the gate.

At the end of the line, Juan, who wanted to rush to the front, reluctantly stopped himself so that he would not knock over a few stinky boys. Although the other did not say it, Juan knew what he had to do with the man's conditions. At least don't hurt these children, it's the most basic. So in the face of the human wall, he can't kick anyone, so he can only stop.

While keeping his distance from the children, Juan said: "Oh ~ oh, boys, I am not your enemy, as for blocking my way like this?" ”

A triumphant boy who seemed to have succeeded in his plan turned his face sideways, looked behind him, and said, "Whoever comes is the same, there is a kind of you crashing into us." As long as you touch us, you will lose, remember? ”

Juan looked appreciatively at the young man who dared to speak at him like this, and said, "I have to praise you for your courage in daring to block a magician." But have you ever thought that I am not your enemy? I don't have any pact with you, I have with that man. It's the same with you. The question is that you blocked me but didn't stop the man, is it a bit of putting the cart before the horse? Because I don't see you doing anything different, except that we're all losers. ”

"What?" The children, who were a little puzzled by Juan's words, looked left and right in a daze. There are even people who are held up by other children on the left and right and can't move, so they pull their bodies hard and turn their heads. Unfortunately, no matter how they looked, they couldn't see the mage's familiar face, only the other one who was a guest.

Some of the dazed children looked in the direction pointed by the guest, and finally saw the familiar figure. The magician, who had made a bet with them, ran towards a wall beside the courtyard. About three paces from the wall, he jumped hard, put his hand on the wall, and swooped over to the side. And he was followed by the gray short-haired cat.

The children were all dumbfounded, and Juan made up for it at the right time, saying, "Don't think that a formal magician can be deceived by your little brains. Your idea is clear to us. The difference is that some people will contradict you; Others use your ideas to their advantage. Since you don't have a limit on the route, and he doesn't plan to solve today's problem with ordinary running, are you still blocking my path and making me lose a bottle of wine? ”

The children who had been left behind to lead the way, the largest and most clever looking, immediately broke up the wall and said to Juan Javier, who was a guest, "Quick, magician, keep up with us." We know the shortcut to the bell tower. ”

At a time when someone is no longer going to use conventional methods to determine the winner and loser, Juan is not very confident in what the children call the so-called shortcuts. But at the moment, if you don't want to admit defeat directly, that seems to be the only way.

Even if you have no choice, you can only keep up. Led by a group of children, Juan also saw that in the glossy place of the holy city of Estali, there are not so glamorous dirty and smelly alleys.

Don't look at the old days when these children lived on such streets, hiding like rats in the dark corners of ditches, doing things that decent people don't want to do, or doing things like stealing chickens and dogs. Ever since they had been acquainted with a magician, none of the ruffians who had controlled the children had dared to trouble them again.

When the children returned to the street, they behaved unimpeded. This is the same agreement I had made with the magician before, not to hurt anyone or break anything, and there are three kittens behind him. Otherwise, dozens of little hairy people will go to the streets, and they will make a mess of the places they pass through unscrupulously.

On the other side, Lin, who no longer planned to take the normal route, came to an assassin dogmatic parkour sport. Compared to modern parkour on Earth, except for the non-existent somersaults of all kindless flips, the rest of the action is complete.

All kinds of climbing, jumping, hurdling, sliding, or landing and rolling after jumping from a height, one of the principles that Lin grasps is not to stop. Moreover, the strength of the feet is three times that of the hands, as long as you can solve things with your feet, such as in a narrow alley, you can kick the wall and the roof left and right, and you will not be stupid to climb up with your hands and feet.

As he headed towards the Clock Tower of the Technology Guild, he wasn't exactly walking in a straight line. In the three-dimensional terrain, the shortest distance to the bell tower cannot be ignored. Sometimes the obstacles ahead are too high, and although you have the skills to climb and descend quickly, you can take less time to pass by taking a detour.

And this competition has also changed from a race to test physical fitness to a parkour sport that tests the limits of the body.

Ever since his body demonized, Lin hadn't seriously tested his limits other than fighting the lich in bed. But in the process of parkour, all kinds of eye-to-hand performances made Lin have a completely different understanding of the good coordination of his body.

Whether it's stepping on the clothesline hanging high between the houses, the sense of balance is expressed. Or when you descend quickly from the roof of the house, you can step on the railing, pick at the windowsill with your fingers, and jump around like a cloud, and the physical coordination you show is unimaginable to yourself in the fat house era.

And there are many places, thanks to human hands, Lin actually made the gray cat Hardy who was following behind feel embarrassed. You must know that it is a cat, and it is a common perception that cats can easily reach places where humans cannot appear. Hardy never imagined that one day this fact would be reversed.
