Leo was right, Catherine really didn't leave a defensive force in her area.

According to Leo's guess, maybe it's her personal habit, she doesn't want to leave room and likes to move forward, maybe she doesn't see herself at all, that's why she holds it up like this.

But in any case, Leo has now succeeded, at least halfway there. Because her troops had already crossed the boundary river and rushed inward for some distance, Catherine, who was completely focused on the battlefield ahead, seemed to have just discovered this anomaly.

Affected, Catherine's attack strength in multiple directions suddenly weakened greatly, and it was obvious that some adjustments had to be made.

Of course, Leo will not let go of this opportunity, and immediately seize every opportunity to attack, even if he loses all his combat power now, he can't let the opponent pull out his hand and easily return to help.

At the front, the army group, consisting of two mage units and two combat units, quickly dispersed and continued to advance towards the depths of the north along four different roads.

It is necessary to expand the search area in this way to have a better chance of catching the Mother Empress.

As for the lair that will definitely exist in front, the combat power of that thing is only 1, and its own two troops can easily deal with it.

This greatly surprised Catherine's expectations, and the mobilization of the defense was a few beats slower one after another, so that the entire front was crumbling by Leo's impact.

Seeing this scene, Leo was overjoyed, even if he couldn't find the brood now, he had a great chance of lifting the siege, so there was definitely a chance to delay until the end of the game and win a draw!

This is the so-called invincible!

As soon as there is a change in thinking, it will be reflected in action. So much so that the strength of his attack instantly decreased a lot, and he was obviously prepared to preserve his living force.

On the other hand, Catherine was so experienced that after a few seconds, she took advantage of Leo's attack to slow down. A series of actions have been completed.

Reposition the battle line and withdraw some of the faster Archnid troops from the front line. At the same time, he maintained forward pressure and easily discarded two of Leo's attacks that were not as strong as before.

Then, under Leo's nose, she completed the mobilization of the Spider Demon army with a total combat power of 30, and galloped towards the mainland.

At this moment, Leo realized that he had made another serious mistake - he actually slowed down his attack at the most critical moment.

He wanted to give himself two big mouths, but it was too late. You can only find the mother queen as soon as possible, and you must find it before the local reinforcements, otherwise you will completely lose the chance of victory.

In the blink of an eye, another minute had passed, and Leo's task force had entered the deepest part of the north, and was about to reach the canyon. While making sure that there was nothing going on at the base camp, he focused almost all of his attention on it.

None of the broods had been found in the areas they had searched before, and Leo believed that it was impossible for Catherine to hide them completely. Then here the possibilities are very high.

Moving on, the fog of war shrouded in war was dispelled little by little.

As one of the faster statues stepped into the canyon first, another slowly emerged from the fog and appeared in front of Leo's eyes.

It was a thick, big bug. It was clumsy crawling, but it was moving so slowly that it was less than a tenth of the size of a normal statue.

Undoubtedly, it's the brood!

"Found it!" Leo instantly felt his heart rise to his throat. My head began to be a little congested, and it was as if I had seen the light of victory in front of me!

However, he quickly suppressed his excitement, and the more times like this, the more he needed to be calm. And with the combat power of a statue of a warrior. Nor is it the opponent of the Mother Empress, and must wait for the rest of the statues to hurry up and converge.

Since he was in enemy-controlled territory, Leo couldn't see where Catherine's pursuing force was, but he could guess that the other party was about to arrive. And it will take at least ten seconds for all of your statues to be concentrated.

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

Leo counted down in his heart, although he could barely control his emotions, the sweat in his palms couldn't stop overflowing, and the wet feeling was extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing the three statues approaching closer and closer, Leo could no longer contain his emotions and almost roared.

As a final task, the bonus points in this game are sure to be extraordinarily rich, and if you win, you have a better chance of getting a place in the competition!

Leo waited with bated breath, his eyes fixed on the statue of the Mother who was following the statue standing upright. As long as there are no accidents, the fat mother queen will be in his bag!

At this time, Catherine suddenly strengthened her attack, and there was a possibility of breaking through the defense line in one fell swoop.

But Leo didn't care about that, he just wanted to seize the opportunity and kill the Empress before the base camp was breached.

"Five!"

"Four!"

"Three!"

Leo continued to count down, counting the time it would take to defeat the Mother Empress, and there were only about ten seconds left in the final moment before he could win!

At this time, a faint fluctuation came, and Leo suddenly found that all his statues had stopped, and the black fog covering the northern sand table had quickly dissipated.

"What's the situation?'s time?, wouldn't it be so unlucky?" Leo frowned, but his eyes met Catherine.

The beautiful mage kept smiling, and she saw Leo's confusion, and then she nodded in Leo's direction.

"Huh?" Leo followed the other's gaze, his eyes widening.

In his mind, his base camp, which should have been intact, had broken a wall, and many spider statues were entrenched in it.

"This ...... It's ......" Leo couldn't figure out what was going on.

Although his own front was not stable just now, it was barely maintained, how could the base camp be broken by the enemy?

Did they fly in? Or did they come in with a hole in the ground?

Catherine stood up and said, "You lose, go out and call the next man in." ”

"I'm ......" Leo pursed his lips and finally asked, "How did you do that?"

Catherine laughed unladylikely, "Don't you think there's something missing on the sandbox?"

"What's missing?" Leo couldn't react, but his eyes unconsciously rose quickly on the sandbox.

Soon, he realized what was missing.

In the spider demon control area, none of those spider demon statues that should have pursued him are here!

Aware of this discovery. Leo suddenly understood: "You...... These statues of yours are not coming back, but ...... Instead, they went around to my flank and back, and took advantage of the mountain terrain to launch a sneak attack?"

Catherine nodded: "That's right, you're not too stupid, okay, let's go, don't delay my rest." ”

"Yes, ma'am. Leo bowed respectfully and stood up.

But before he could stand up. But I felt a burst of dizziness, it turned out to be a feeling of weakness caused by too much mental power consumption, I was too involved just now and didn't feel it, but now when I relaxed, I suddenly burst out.

Gritting his teeth and enduring weakness and defeat, Leo finally took the first step and walked towards the door of the room.

He didn't know that Catherine behind him had no smile anymore. On the contrary, she seemed to be secretly relieved, but she looked at Leo's eyes, but she became more and more kind.

Leo also didn't know that in the game of war simulation. Catherine has never lost yet, and almost no one has even been able to threaten her.

"This child's mental power control is so amazing, and even when I attack with all my strength, I can still accurately control the statue. He defended tenaciously to the end!And he has a keen sense of smell, and is always able to get out of trouble when it is most dangerous!" Catherine muttered to herself, "If it weren't for the fact that I had hidden the tracks of those spiders at the end. Raiding his base camp from the secret passage, maybe it's really possible to lose! Fortunately, fortunately, if I lose to a student, I, the commander, will not have the face to see people in the future. ”

While rejoicing, Catherine pondered whether she would return to the academy once in the near future and have a good "talk" with Dean Fran and Geralson.

............

Half an hour later, under the guidance of the academy staff, Leo was transported back to the academy, and was told to wait patiently for the results, and returned to the dormitory.

Sanders' room door was locked, and it looked like he hadn't finished his event. Leo felt so tired that he slept with his head covered as soon as he entered the room, leaving no chance for gain or loss.

I don't know how long I slept, but there was a sharp knock on the door.

Leo woke up from his slumber, knowing without asking that it must have been Sanders who knocked on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw Sanders' chubby face full of joy.

"How's your game?" asked the little fat man eagerly.

Leo rubbed his aching head and replied, "It's okay, what about you?"

"Good, no, I mean very good! I played more than I could have imagined!" Sanders said gleefully.

The two chatted for a while, and Leo realized that the content of the exam for the Level 3 contestants was similar to his own, but it was in another area of the spider plane, and the difficulty was much simpler. In the end, it was also a simulated war, but the opponent was not Catherine, but another high-level mage from the academy stationed on the spider plane.

"Hey, hey, you don't know how well I played! I held on to the end! I drew with the professor!" the little fat man danced with his hands, "I asked a few other people, and they all lost the game very quickly, you say, is it possible for me to be selected?"

"Of course, there's definitely a chance!" Leo replied without thinking. He wasn't trying to comfort Sanders, he really thought so. Through the communication with the other party, he sincerely felt that Sanders did have a great performance throughout the game, whether it was in the application of magic, the expansion of magic principles, or the foundation and creativity, there were many shining points.

Leo believes that even if there are some very good people in the third grade, they will never do better than Sanders.

"Now what we have to do is rest and wait for the results. Leo said, "You're too excited right now, you should calm down." ”

"Mmmm, you're right, I need to calm down. Sanders closed his eyes and took a deep breath, but it wasn't long before he began to babble again.

............

In the blink of an eye, five days have passed, and Leo has had a rare relaxing time every day with classes, eating, sleeping, and meditating.

It was the weekend, he got up early, finished his meditation, and had just taken out a book to read, when Lothas pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing Leo to see it, the sun elf was stunned for a moment, and then frowned and said, "I really admire you, when is it, why are you still in the mood to read?"

"Huh?" Leo was a little puzzled by his words, "when? Why can't you read a book?"

"The results will be announced at ten o'clock today! It's half past nine now!" said Lothas, roaring.

Hearing him say this, Leo smiled: "If you can be selected, you can be selected, if you can't be selected, even if you look at the results at the first time, won't you still be selected?"

"Then you have to know the results as soon as possible!Why don't you care at all!" Lothas couldn't help it, stepped forward and pulled Leo up, and walked out without saying anything.

After a while, the two arrived at the central plaza of the college, where Sanders was already waiting.

Not only him, but almost all the students of the academy gathered here to wait for the academy to announce the final candidates for the Dalaran competition.

For a while, the square was crowded with people, full of voices talking about who could be selected.

With a lot of effort, the three of Leo finally squeezed into a position before the exam, and were able to read the bulletin board in front of them.

At the moment, it was empty, and it was clear that the results had not yet been announced.

Leo said he didn't care, but he was actually a little nervous, after all, he didn't know how others were doing, and as for Sanders, he was already sweating like a pulp, and he was almost trembling with nervousness.

Every minute and every second was like torment, and it took a full fifteen minutes for Rubersky to walk out of the academy office building with two large scrolls in his hand.

Knowing that he was here to announce the results, the square suddenly became silent.

Rubersky did not torture the students anymore, and directly arranged for two academy employees to open the first scroll and hang it on the bulletin board.

At the beginning of the scroll, it is written in the lingua franca of flowers: "The results of the 3rd level student selection competition of the Dalaran Tryout of the Rivington School of Magic." ”

Next, there is the list of colleges and grades.

22nd place, Justin Kent, with a total score of 65 points, the first step of the first stage of the task, complete the preparation of the potion, get 6 points for the advanced assessment, the second step, fail to obtain the venom, get 2 points for the low assessment, and the third step, pass through the tunnel, but no special performance, get 4 points for the intermediate assessment......

On the score list, each person's performance is listed in great detail, showing the absolute fairness of the college. (To be continued.) )
