Chapter Seventy-Five: Regretful Honan
"Pei Ze."
Gu Rin didn't know when he came to Pei Ze's side, and his gaze at him was a little suspicious.
The girl approached and asked in a low voice, "You won't really escape, will you?" ā
It's no wonder that she thinks so, it's really that Pei Ze doesn't look like he's experienced a fierce battle.
Pei Ze is certainly a student of the Tower Academy, but once he participates in the operation, he will be under the jurisdiction of the City Guard, in case he did not strictly carry out the defensive task last night, then the City Guard several overseers will never be relentless.
Especially Huo Nan is still eyeing him.
Before Pei Ze could answer, Su Ya couldn't help but defend himself: "That's not the case, Master Pei Ze he"
Pei Ze raised his hand to stop Su Ya's words, and didn't plan to say more, he strode directly towards the temporary registration office not far away, took off the recording ring and put it on the desk, and said to the staff: "Register the merit point." ā
The staff woke up from a dream and hurriedly took the record ring and began to investigate.
After a few seconds, his eyes suddenly widened, and he showed an expression as if he had seen something shocking.
Seeing this, the wizard apprentices couldn't help but be curious.
An apprentice who was closer to the registration office impatiently urged: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up!" ā
Only then did the staff react, looked at Pei Ze in awe, and then quickly wrote a line of words on the paper, then raised his head again, and said to Pei Ze with a respectful expression: "714 merit points, it has been registered." ā
The voice fell, and the hall suddenly fell silent.
Immediately after, the crowd erupted into an uproar.
"714 merit points?! You read that right? ā
"Really? That's an exaggeration! ā
"How many heretics have you killed?"
"Unbelievable, it's more than 10 times more than mine!"
Everyone looked at Pei Ze in shock, and it was difficult to come back to their senses for a while.
Despite the words of doubt and disbelief, it is clear to everyone that there is no way to go wrong with the recording ring.
In addition, the recording ring also has the function of retaining images, and as long as the battle situation at the time is compared afterwards, the number of merit points can naturally be further confirmed, and there is no need for the parties to falsify at all.
In other words, Pei Ze did kill a large number of infidels and gained more than 700 merit points!
Suddenly, the eyes of many wizard apprentices looking at Pei Ze changed.
can get more than 700 merit points, and there are more than ten or twenty demons killed by Pei Ze!
And it definitely includes more than one peak knight-level demon!
If it were them, they would never have been able to do it to this extent.
This kind of strength is undoubtedly far above the vast majority of people present!
Gu Rin was also stunned for a while, and after coming back to his senses, his gaze at Pei Ze suddenly became extremely complicated.
"Shiro is worried about you."
After muttering a sentence, she couldn't help but sigh again.
"I still think that my more than 200 merit points are already very good, but now it seems that I am so weak."
"This guy is a demon!"
Su Ya on the side pursed her lips and nodded approvingly in her heart.
She has also seen a lot of third-level wizard apprentices in the station these days, and she has also watched some wizard apprentices cast spells in the square, but none of them are like Pei Ze, who mastered the spell at a young age, the casting speed is surprisingly fast, and the power of the spell is even more powerful.
And there's a powerful pet!
Truth be told, it wouldn't be surprising if these traits were found in a wizard.
But when it appeared in a sixteen-year-old third-level wizard apprentice, it was particularly shocking and inexplicable.
At this time, the surrounding apprentices looked at Pei Ze as if they were looking at some kind of incredible existence.
Pei Ze didn't want to stay and be watched like a rare animal, so he waved his hand and threw down the sentence 'I'll go back to rest', and left in style.
The encirclement and suppression operation is not over yet, and the next step is to clean up the remnants of the infidels, so there is no need to rush to exchange merit points for the time being.
Return to your accommodation.
Pei Ze lifted his robe and hat and looked sideways slightly, Xiao Yi was sleeping sweetly inside.
This little guy is almost using his robe and hat as a dormitory.
Pei Ze shook his head and smiled.
He now takes Xiao Yi with him every time he goes out, or leaves Misty Feather to keep him with him, to prevent the little one from being stolen by some greedy wizard apprentice.
And the little guy is also very sensitive to danger, or very afraid of death, every time a battle occurs, she will hide in Pei Ze's robe and hat in advance, as long as the enemy can't break through Pei Ze's defenses, he can't hurt her.
When the battle is over, she will jump out to show off her power and celebrate the indiscriminate killing of herself and Pei Zegaga.
"Babble"
Xiao Yi opened his eyes in a daze, and was stunned for a few seconds before rubbing his eyes and waking up, swaying out of his robe and hat.
"Babble."
"Okay."
Pei Ze answered, took out the prepared nectar, poured it into the cup, and put it on the table.
Xiao Yi cheered, flew to the table, picked up the cup and drank it in a big gulp.
Looking at the little guy with a happy expression on his face, the corners of Pei Ze's mouth couldn't help but smile.
Coming to the bed and sitting cross-legged, Pei Ze took out the spell model book, opened the page and began to scan.
Of the seven spell models that I had purchased earlier, I had not yet mastered the Jumping Technique and the Weakening Ray.
Last night's battle didn't consume much mental power, and it just so happens to be used to parse two spells now.
As the name suggests, jumping is a way to greatly improve the recipient's jumping ability.
This spell is similar to the Feather Fall.
However, one is usually used to counteract gravity when landing from a height, and the other is usually used to increase speed and reduce terrain effects when chasing enemies.
However, there are also some wizards who often use jumping spells on their followers, increasing their agility and dexterity in disguise.
The Weakening Beam is a beam that emits a Weakening Radiant that reduces the strength of an enemy and weakens the body when it hits them.
If the spell is powerful enough, it can even turn a great knight into a paralyzed waste on the spot.
These two spells have a buff and a weaken, and they are very useful.
For wizards, unless they reach a point where they can crush everything with their strength, the combination of spells is very important.
A reasonable combination of spells can allow wizards to solve enemies in the most effortless and swift way in battle.
A powerful wizard must be able to choose the right spell to defeat the enemy at the first time, no matter what situation he faces.
And to do this, one must master enough powerful spells.
Quantity and quality are taken into account.
So wizards are always on the path of knowledge.
Of course, the vast majority of wizards can't do it both in terms of quantity and quality.
After all, human energy is limited.
When they can't have both, most wizards have no choice but to give up quantity and choose quality, and specialize in a few spells.
But Pei Ze is different.
With the omniscient eye in his hands, it only took him seven or eight days to learn a one-ring spell.
If you are using your energy to speed up with all your strength, you can learn up to four or five one-ring spells a day.
If he was given a month, he would be able to learn all the spells of the First Ring.
This was not done simply because it was not necessary.
Many of the first-ring spells are functionally repetitive, and Pei Ze only intends to focus on those that are not repeated, and the total number is only twenty or thirty.
After all, spiritual power is used in many places nowadays, and there is no excess waste on unnecessary spells.
With a slight movement of his mind, the spell models of the Jumping Technique and the Weakening Ray were instantly constructed in Pei Ze's mind, and the relevant knowledge also poured into the depths of his mind.
After closing his eyes and understanding for a moment, after digesting this knowledge, Pei Ze opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Then we'll have to wait until we get back to the academy to buy new spell models."
"During this time, focus on building the Will Rune and improving the spells."
Suddenly, Pei Ze's expression moved slightly, and with a casual lift, he manipulated the wind energy particles to roll up a strong wind, blowing Xiao Yi who was about to sneak out of the window.
"Bah."
Xiao Yi, who stabilized his figure, shouted in protest.
"Stay in the room."
Pei Ze released the fog feather and asked it to take a good look at Xiao Yi, and then closed his eyes and began today's meditation.
Click!
After listening to the report of his subordinates, the crystal glass in Huo Nan's hand instantly shattered, and the fragments mixed with wine liquid splashed all over the ground.
However, he didn't care about it anymore, his face was extremely pale, and his eyes were full of anger.
Pei Ze came back alive and sound!
Damn it! How is this possible?!
Huo Nan glared at his henchman who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a gloomy face: "Say, what's going on?" ā
"Great, sir, IāI don't know what's going on?"
The henchman was drenched in cold sweat.
"Last night, we obviously followed your orders, pretending to be invincible, and secretly allowed a large number of heretics to break through, among which there were twenty or thirty demons alone, it stands to reason that Pei Ze could not still be alive!"
Huo Nan's face changed.
He believed that his henchmen would not dare to lie to him, after all, this kind of thing could be easily verified.
"Pei Ze really got so many merit points?" Huo Nan asked suddenly.
The henchman's expression froze, and he said in a low voice: "The logistics department has verified that Pei Ze's merit points are completely in line with the rules." ā
Honan was silent.
After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Go to the logistics office and bring me Pei Ze's record ring."
The henchman immediately responded, and hurriedly got up and left.
After a while, he ran back with a recording ring and respectfully handed it to Huo Nan with both hands.
Huo Nan took the ring, turned the ring and pressed it to the center of his forehead, and then closed his eyes.
After about four or five minutes, he reopened his eyes, his face already filled with shock and disbelief.
"Spell silent. This kid actually mastered the spell Silent Hair at the apprenticeship stage! ā
For the first time, Huo Nan regretted that he had promised Pei Yonggao to help deal with Pei Ze.
A genius who has mastered the spell Silent Hair in the apprenticeship stage and can kill more than a dozen demon disciples alone, once he is successfully promoted to wizard, the future can be imagined.
Offending such a future genius wizard makes people's scalps tingle just to think about.
For a while, Huo Nan's face couldn't help but look unusual.
The henchman cautiously observed his expression and said tentatively, "My lord, what should we do next?" ā
Huo Nan suddenly raised his head, glanced at him coldly, and shouted, "Waste, get out of here!" ā
The henchman's body trembled, and he hurriedly left with a crawl.
In the blink of an eye, only Honan was left in the room.
His expression changed for a long time, and he gritted his teeth fiercely: "At this point, I must kill Pei Ze, otherwise when I become a wizard, he will definitely not let me go!" ā
Huo Nan knew very well in his heart that once he failed to kill Pei Ze this time, he would lose his value in Pei Yonggao's eyes, and the latter would never waste his strength to protect him.
At that time, there was no need to wait for Pei Ze to be promoted to wizard, Mo Weng standing behind Pei Ze could easily clean him up.
Things have developed to this point, and there is no way back for him.
Either kill Pei Ze or he gets killed!
On the second day of the siege of the stronghold, the city guard began a sweep of the remnants of the infidels.
Early in the morning, the wizard apprentices and knight cadets in the station were summoned to the command hall to assemble.
Entering the command hall again, Pei Ze keenly found that there were obviously fewer people.
This is mainly reflected in the number of wizard apprentices.
Originally, there were 120 teams, or 120 wizard apprentices.
But now there were just over a hundred people left in the hall.
The dozen or so wizard apprentices who disappeared don't know if they died in the battle that night, or if they were injured and withdrew from the operation?
This is true even for wizard apprentices, let alone knight cadets.
The latter are at least three or four times as likely to be killed or disabled.
It's just that the vacant positions after they left were soon replenished by new knight cadets, so it didn't seem that much attrition.
"Senior Brother Pei Ze." Fan He walked over and looked at Pei Ze with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "I've heard that you killed more than twenty demons in one night, and you got more than seven hundred merit points, which is amazing!" ā
Fan He was both envious and admired.
Think about it for a moment, if he had been defending Area 28, he would have been a corpse long ago.
After all, he couldn't stop so many demons.
But Pei Ze was not only unscathed, but also gained a large number of merit points, which has to be admired.
The world of wizards is all about the strong.
Although Fan He also valued Pei Ze very much before, he treated each other more as equals and did not put on a senior shelf.
But when talking to Pei Ze now, there was a trace of not obvious respect in his words and demeanor, and he faintly put Pei Ze in a higher position than himself.
After a while, Gu Rin also came.
The three of them chatted casually about the next sweeping operation.
"Although the stronghold of the Abep forces has been destroyed, there are still many remnants who have managed to escape."
Fan and some of his clansmen served as officers in the city guard and were also involved in the operation, so they knew more information than others.
"Fortunately, Lord Ai Yuan of the Tower Academy, along with more than a dozen wizard mentors, has already laid an enchantment in the northern area of the outer city in advance, and all creatures contaminated with demonic aura will generate an early warning the moment they touch the enchantment, and the city guards stationed nearby can arrest them as soon as possible."
"In addition, the city guards also sent the main force to guard the main communication routes, and if the heretics dared to take the lead, they would inevitably be attacked head-on."
"Our next task should be to cooperate with the city guards to clean up the remnants of the infidels hiding in the North District."
After listening to Fan He's words, Gu Rin muttered: "The rest of those heretics have long been frightened, and they are not afraid, but if they hide with an iron heart, it will not be easy to find them. ā
Pagans can't do anything else, but hiding kung fu is first-class.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to hide under the nose of a wizard for so many years.
Fan He smiled: "Don't worry about this, several wizards must have a way to find them." ā
After a pause, his expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Besides, you must not take it lightly, I heard that there is a binge drinker among the heretics who are wandering outside. ā
