Chapter 37: Who wouldn't want to be first?

"I heard you signed up for the Freshman Competition?"

Lynn, who was intoxicated with consulting materials in the library, raised his head slightly when he heard a familiar voice.

There is no doubt that in this academy, there is no one else who can take the initiative to greet him except his fiancΓ©e.

"Yes." Lynn nodded in response, her gaze slowly sliding from the girl's delicate cheeks to the stack of papers she was holding.

"It's ......."

I don't blame him for asking.

Because on the first sheet of the stack, Lynn saw a picture of herself.

"The profile of some of the people who participated in the Freshman Competition." Erin shoved the not-so-thick stack of paper to him, "When I heard that you had signed up, I thought, you might need these things, so I've got them for you." ”

"Of course, if it's all the contestants, there's definitely more than that." Erin chuckled, "I took it upon myself to filter out some people who might not be too threatening....... Let's take a look first. ”

"Thank you."

Lynn thanked softly, and quickly flipped through it.

The first piece of paper was himself.

"I didn't collect this." Erin held her head and said casually, "These are the information that others are looking for, about you." ”

Lynn looked at this information, which was basically equal to a "blank piece of paper" in addition to his photo, gender and age, and shook his head slightly.

"It seems that their intelligence gathering skills are not very good."

"Maybe it's not that you can't gather intelligence, but in their opinion, you don't have anything to care about." Erin spread her hands, "Who made you a freshman?" ”

Lynn smiled and didn't deny it.

The study time is here, and it is indeed difficult for a newcomer to meet a group of people who have been studying for a year or two.

Aside from the amount of knowledge mastered, such as mana reserves and magic proficiency, these all take time to accumulate.

A new student without a background does not seem to be worth mentioning.

Lynn continued to look through the information about her opponents, but she didn't delve into it in detail, just skimming it roughly.

The freshman competition uses a lottery system, not a challenge system, and Lynn does not have the right to choose an opponent.

Therefore, there is no great need to go through the information of each opponent in detail.

When Lynn almost flipped through all the obvious information written on the paper, his face gradually became solemn.

Facts have proved that Erin's vision and judgment skills are still very good.

There are three of these sources.

The magic power of the player, the magic mastery, and, the magic they are best at.

Among the player profiles that Erin filtered out, the person with the lowest magic power dyed at least one-third of the imaginary star ring into silver, and the highest one was as much as half.

It seems that this point is nothing to praise, but you must know that Lynn has cultivated for so many days with the help of the Sea of Imaginary Numbers, and the color of the star ring on the top of her head has not changed at all.

With Lynn's current mana reserves, maintaining a gold-level [Mirror Eye] can only support about three minutes at most, and the magic power represented by half a silver ring can provide gold-level continuous magic for an hour, which is no problem at all, even if it is released once, it can be thrown about ten times.

As for the amount of magic they mastered, it was not so noteworthy, and what needed to be paid attention to was the quality of the magic.

Since the time for students in the second and third grades to learn magic is relatively short, they don't have much magic.

Almost all of them choose to specialize in one type of magic, and all the others are used to fill in the gaps in their magic.

"Whew-"

Lynn slowly exhaled a cloudy breath.

On paper, he doesn't seem to be worth mentioning.

In these materials, if there is a combat effectiveness ranking, and the highest ranking is ten, then he is only one at best.

"Done?" Erin squinted and smiled, "How does it feel?" ”

Lynn hesitated for a moment and said, "It's tricky. ”

"But it's not that it can't be solved?"

Lynn nodded: "The magic I found in the Sea of Imaginary Numbers is somewhat special, it belongs to the magic that can interfere with the other party's consciousness. ”

"Auxiliary?" Erin frowned slightly, "Auxiliary magic is easier for warriors, after all, in hand-to-hand combat, a loss of mind may determine the final victory, but you are a magician, and the battle between you is not a hard-fought ......"

Suddenly, her words suddenly stopped, and her face became more and more strange.

"What do you mean ......."

Lynn chuckled and nodded slightly: "In addition to the magic mastered in the Sea of Imaginary Numbers, I also have a skill, and this is where my advantage lies in them. ”

"In fact, this skill, they should have been - most aristocratic families, have a long-standing swordsmanship or martial arts. Their function may be to strengthen the body, or it may be to fight and kill the enemy, but no matter what, they can be used in actual combat. ”

"But I also said that it was once." Erin smiled and said, "After entering the magic department, basically all students will put aside the sword skills or martial arts they have learned and turn to study the more attractive mysterious magic. ”

"That's right." Lynn snapped his fingers and took over the conversation, "Once the sword skills and martial arts are practiced, it is generally impossible to forget them, but if they are not used for a long time, the memory of these skills in the muscles will feel extremely jerky, and although they can still be taken out at that time, it is impossible to maintain the original strength of two or three out of ten - not to mention, before going to the ring, will these magicians really remember to bring long swords?" ”

After a pause, he pointed to himself and said, "Unlike them, I haven't fully become a magician, and even this morning, I'm practicing the Blazer family's family swordsmanship, and I'm in good shape. ”

"Once their judgment is interfered with by my magic, I am sure that within three seconds, I will deprive them of the ability to continue fighting."

"I see, I see." Erin chuckled softly, "It seems that the magicians will suffer because of their carelessness. ”

"It's just .......," she said after a moment's hesitation, "you can only use this method once or twice at most, right?" ”

"After one or two battles, they will definitely dissect your methods, and when the time comes, they will be wary of your magic, and then predict your swordsmanship so that you can't get close......."

"Then I'll lose." Lynn spread her hands and said, "So, I have to make the most of what I have." ”

"If you can hit the opponent without using swordsmanship, you don't need it; If you can avoid exposing my magical powers, you have to avoid it as long as possible. ”

"When I don't have enough hard power, I have to use every move into a finishing move that will definitely kill the game."

Erin blinked, as if surprised, and asked, "It turns out that you are running for the first place?" ”

Lynn asked rhetorically with a chuckle.

"Who wouldn't want to be the first in a race?"
