Chapter 53
How much potential can a person have when he is in a desperate situation?
Even though she has the foundation of martial arts and the mind of a modern person.
Despite Carl and Yanni's best efforts, they provided her with information and equipment.
Even though the referee was clearly biased in favor of her, he also extended the length of the dueling arena to fifty meters on the grounds of his professional nature.
But these well-wishers from another world have worked hard to build up for her and have their own advantages, and they seem to be crushed the moment their heavily armed opponents rush towards her.
"Cast a spell!" Carl yelled at the girl who seemed to be still stunned after the duel began, "The duel has begun!" ”
At the same time, the D-class adventurer Quill who was covered in plate armor let out a loud cry and charged at her with a short-handled axe in both hands.
Forty-five meters, forty meters, thirty-five meters, thirty meters......
With a weight of several tens of kilograms on his back, his charge was more like a jog, and the wrought iron plate armor severely slowed him down while providing high protection.
This was a helpless countermeasure against the magician, and as an axe warrior, he had very few means to resist magic, and he couldn't rely on rough skin and thick flesh to resist.
Fortunately, the opponent seems to be a real fledgling......
Quill noticed that the girl on the other side still hadn't reacted, and gave a sneer.
How should this effortless victory be celebrated......
When he approached half the distance, the rookie on the opposite side seemed to have finally come to his senses, slowly raised his hand, and his fingertips quickly condensed a raging flame.
Fireball?
Although it is a common attack method for magicians, its power should not be underestimated.
Battle-experienced Quill slowed down the distance after making a quick judgment and used the face of the short-handled axe to block the first flying fireball, causing no injuries other than a slight burning sensation.
The second and third fireballs that followed were also blocked by him in a similar way, and he roared and continued to push forward except for being burned on his facial skin by a few flying sparks.
The distance was shortened to twenty meters, and more fireballs were condensed at the girl's fingertips at the same time, and Quir, feeling the pressure doubled, temporarily gave up the push, swinging his weapon and blocking the opponent's steady stream of attacks with the solid position of the plate armor.
"Am I right? Is this a fireball? On the roof of the house next to the dueling arena, Karl rubbed his eyes, "This number and the casting speed...... Is she really just an E-class adventurer? ”
"How can a guy who can take risks alone not have the skills on his body."
Yan Ni, who was squatting next to her and looked a little better, was worried on her face:
"If that's all there is to it, it's ...... to win this duel"
A steady stream of fireballs condensed from Shi Junjun's fingertips at a speed of one shot per second and flew towards the opponent, even though it had not caused slightly more substantial damage to Quill who was wearing heavy armor so far, the kinetic energy attached to the fireball forced him back two or three meters.
Gritting his teeth against these fireballs, Quill was still defending.
Even though the rookie's casting speed and durability in front of him have greatly exceeded the ordinary E-class level, there is no doubt that the magic power consumed per second to cast the fireball spell at such a speed is astronomical, and it only needs to survive the initial short burst period, and the final victory is still ......
How could she still put more fireballs after waiting for so long?
"Far more than the average trainee mage's mana reserves...... Even some of the brown-robed guys are ashamed of themselves. ”
As a referee, the curious baby C-class adventurer was amazed:
"In time, her future achievements will definitely surpass the D-class, and today's victory or defeat may not be as most people think."
Having been forced back to the middle of the dueling arena, Quill realized that he couldn't go on like this.
The time limit for the duel is only three minutes, and if the rookie can continue to cast spells at this intensity for the rest of the time, he will be judged to lose nine times out of ten if the time runs out and the winner is determined according to the situation on the field!
With most of his vision blocked by Iron Mask and Splashing Sparks, he couldn't observe his opponent, but that didn't mean that his companions on the field couldn't either.
"It's now!"
Henry's familiar roar came at this moment.
This companion stood on the roof very close to Shi Junjun, although it was impossible to make any small movements under the eyes of the referee whose eyes were as sharp as a falcon, but from this angle, he could clearly see the cold sweat on Shi Junjun's forehead and the arm that began to tremble
Presumably, this is the effect of having just exerted too much mental and physical strength, and it is a good opportunity for Quill to fight back.
Then, in the next second, the D-class adventurer saw Shi Junjun change his arm without shaking and continue to release fireballs......
It's even a few minutes faster than before.
"Henry NTMD (the otherworldly language in Shi Junjun's ears has become this classic national curse under the effect of that bottle of potion), don't help if you can't see the situation on the field clearly, okay!"
Quill, who was about to raise his head and charge, nearly got a fireball head-on, and roared angrily as he retracted his head and returned to a defensive position.
At this time, he had already faintly regretted his previous words in the guild.
Who knows why this seemingly powerless female adventurer has such terrifying spell-casting abilities......
It's just that now, it's too late to regret it.
Shi Junjun's situation is not much better.
It was the first time for her to continue casting spells with such intensity, and although there seemed to be a surplus of magic in her body, she didn't know why she felt so tired that she couldn't open her eyes.
From what I've learned from another world, it's a sign of excessive magic in a short period of time.
If magic is like a soggy unformed dough, then a magician is a skilled pastry chef.
In addition to the raw materials, making a variety of fragrant pastries also requires the time and experience of the pastry chef, which is quite easy to understand.
The reason for the current state is probably as follows:
There is still enough dough left, and the pastry chef is tired of dogs.
"It's now! Quill! ”
The familiar reminder of his companion reached Quill's ears again.
The unlucky guy who was struggling to fight the fireball in the dueling arena cursed in his heart, but after hesitation, he still chose to trust his companion's judgment.
The frequency of the fireballs that flew was greatly reduced after Henry's roar, and Quill was pleasantly surprised to find that the speed at which his opponent could cast fireballs had dropped from one shot per second to one shot per two seconds.
After resisting the fireball for so long, it was not that he didn't pay any price, and the wrought iron plate armor that was originally recognizable was now scorched black, and there were potholes everywhere.
The residual heat of the fireball on the metal burned Quill's skin, and it was inevitable that there would be extensive burns after the duel.
But for Quill, as long as he can win, none of this is nothing.
Quill quickly closed the distance again after regaining his hard resistance to the fireball.
Twenty meters, fifteen meters, ten meters......
Through the gap in the iron armor, he could see his opponent's expression clearly.
Strangely, the rookie mage who was about to get close didn't have much fear on his face.
Hahaha, I must have been scared stupid by his Uncle Quill -
In the next second, he was beaming with pride, and he saw something fly towards his head with a fireball.
