"Spell caster No. 42 is invited to enter the arena. Magical devices other than staffs and various spell scrolls are not allowed for the assessment. Once used in the assessment, you will be immediately disqualified and will not be allowed to take the assessment again in the next year." Outside the simulated fighting arena on the seventeenth floor of the tower, the sound transmission circle announced the news to inform the participants to enter the fighting arena for the assessment. Caster No. 42 was a young male who walked away with an uneasy expression. Enter the circular arena.
A translucent magic barrier rose to cover the arena, preventing the outside world from affecting the interior, but it did not prevent people on the periphery of the arena from watching the battle.
In the arena, Spellcaster No. 42 who participated in the assessment was dodged by the series of fireballs shot by the examiner as soon as he entered the arena. As he ran, he continued to create a magic barrier on the staff in his hand to block the examiner's attack.
The magic barrier he used to block the fireball explosion was obviously unskilled. The highly condensed magic barrier almost shattered and exploded after resisting one or two ordinary fireballs.
The magic power consumed to condense a magic barrier is much more than the magic power required to shoot a fireball. The spellcaster participating in the assessment tried to delay the prescribed time by dodging and blocking, but ultimately came to nothing.
Rolling on the ground in embarrassment, barely dodging another incoming fireball, but not letting the fireball hit the closely-shaped magic shield. The caster raised the staff in his hand, trying to condense the magic barrier to block the next flying one. Fireball.
But the radiance of the magic power flashed, but nothing appeared on the opponent's staff. When the opponent was stunned, the examiner's fireball had already hit the caster's body, and the rising flames and blooming light engulfed the caster. engulf.
The flames dissipated, revealing the caster who was unscathed but with a frustrated look on his face. The weaker outer shield of the two magic shields put on him by the examiner had been exploded by the fireball, which also meant that the opponent was already in the process. Failed in this assessment.
"The strategy of delaying time by constantly dodging and blocking is fine. You are also quite flexible, but your magic barrier proficiency is too low."
"In this case, the rate of consumption of magic power cannot be supported by the magic power stock in your magic spiral. Unfortunately, you failed this test. Come back next time." The examiner, a middle-aged woman wearing a mage's robe, commented briefly. After a few words, Spellcaster No. 42 announced the final result that the other party had failed the assessment.
Waiting for the magic barrier covering the arena to fall, Caster No. 42 walked out of the arena in frustration, and the examiner notified the next caster to enter the arena to begin the assessment.
"Please invite caster No. 43 to enter the fighting arena..." After reading the prohibited items for the assessment in a routine manner, the examiner waited for the next spell caster to enter the examination room.
The examiner's strength is that of a mid-level archmage, while most of the spellcasters who participate in the status upgrade assessment are still scholars as their main profession and have basically no experience in combat.
Therefore, examiners generally put a lot of pressure on the other party and will not embarrass the other party as long as they can meet the most basic requirements.
Looking at the next spell caster who walked into the examination room, the examiner raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had really not seen many spell casters in this kind of attire. Rather than saying that the other person was dressed as a spell caster, it was better to say that he was a spell caster. Ranger.
Caster No. 43, Aviya, the girl has taken off her mage robe at this moment, leaving only a white and brown shirt. Her lower body is a pair of loose pants that are convenient for running. The boots on the soles of her feet fit the soles of her feet. Guaranteed to have a pretty good grip, her long blond hair was neatly tied into a ponytail and tied behind her head.
"The rule is, either you can survive my attack for ten minutes without being broken through the outer barrier of your body, or you can take the initiative to attack and break the outer magic barrier of my body. If you complete one of these two points, you will be considered as passing the assessment. "The examiner introduced the requirements for Aviya to pass the examination. While speaking, he waved the staff in his hand and put two layers of magic shield on Aviya.
The entire arena is covered by a magic suppression array. The spells that can be cast are greatly restricted, and the power of the spells that can be released will also be weakened, basically breaking the fragile outer magic shield. That's the limit.
"In one minute, the assessment will officially begin. During this period, you can cast non-offensive spells." The examiner said the words about the beginning of the assessment, and the magic barrier around the arena rose, covering the arena.
After spending about ten seconds feeling the suppressed magic environment around her, Aviya confirmed that spells above the third level could basically not be used in the arena, and the casting speed and power of spells of the third level and below would also decrease.
Aviya also watched the assessment just now. Dodge and block are theoretically enough to pass the assessment. With the girl's ability, she can definitely do it perfectly.
But Aviya doesn't intend to just drag it out. She wants to take advantage of this environment where magic is suppressed to see how much she can do now.
The magic power flows out from the magic vortex, forming the spell she wants to use on the staff in Aviya's hand. The preparation time of more than forty seconds is enough for Aviya to release more than three buff spells for herself.
The second-level gain spell is popular, the second-level gain spell Pumice Ring Rail, the first-level gain spell magic relay, a series of gain spells were cast on the girl, and the smooth casting movements made the examiner nod.
Acceleration, protection, and speeding up the casting speed of the next spell. Several of the girl's buff spells are very practical spells. In the examiner's opinion, Aviya should have chosen to delay this conservative buff spell. As of now, Judging from the performance, the girl has done much better than the previous caster.
The one-minute preparation time passed quickly, and the bell that represented the official start of the examination echoed in the arena. The moment the examination officially began, Aviya rushed towards her under the gaze of the examiner.
"This?" Aviya's behavior of rushing towards her made the examiner unconscious for a moment. What is going on? She is a spell caster, not a real ranger. Could it be that she expected to release herself with her good physical fitness? Can't the spell hit?
But soon, the examiner's spellcasting speed had to start to speed up, because Aviya's running speed was really scary.
The airflow cleared the way for the girl, giving her a slight but not negligible push, allowing the girl's own speed to reach a higher level. This speed was simply not something that a normal caster could achieve.
The magic light on the examiner's staff flashed, and several wind blades formed by compressed gas condensed on it. The second-level attack spell scattered the wind blades, and the high-speed flying blades shot towards Aviya who was rushing towards him. This was A very useful spell for dealing with people who move quickly.
Concentrating fully, when several closely spaced wind blades flew in front of her, the girl suddenly lowered her body, letting the wind blades pass over her head, and successfully dodged them.
The buff spell prepared in advance - the magic relay is triggered instantly, which allows the girl to complete the next spell at an accelerated rate while her body slides under the wind blade.
A blazing flame ignited behind the girl, and the fire element was released, generating a powerful propulsive force, allowing the girl's already nimble figure to slide towards the examiner at high speed in a red firework trajectory, and the second-level displacement spell attacked fiercely.
"Whoosh whoosh!" Facing the girl's sprinting figure were several extremely unstable blazing fireballs. The unstable nature of these fireballs made them explode as long as they were stimulated by a little magic power. They were second-level magic fireworks and booby traps.
The spell used by the examiner was obviously much stronger than the one used on the previous examiner. She took it seriously. For no other reason than this girl who looked quite young put a lot of pressure on her. She felt that she was facing someone who was trying to get closer to her. The distance between themselves is the knight, not the caster.
In fact, the examiner's feeling was not wrong. There was fighting energy flowing in the girl's body at the moment, moving through it, strengthening Aviya's physical fitness. She was indeed a knight.
Aviya has been training as a knight since she got the knight talent from the Golden Apple. Before, when she didn't have the knight talent, the girl had already followed Wang Yu's advice and trained her body well, laying a good foundation for knight training.
Coupled with the guidance of the great knight, the supply of various high-level body-building potions, and the girl's hard work, which is not inferior to that of Wang Yu, in a short period of time, the girl has the strength of a junior trainee knight and successfully awakened her fighting spirit. .
Therefore, what the examiner wants to assess at this moment is actually a caster whose strength is suppressed, while the knight's strength is real.
"candidate". Aviya, who was sliding forward under the push of red flames, waved the staff in her hand, and the ring of flying stones flying around her body immediately flew out of her body, rushing towards the unstable obstacle in front of her. Group of fireballs.
"Boom!" The unstable fireball group was cast in advance by the girl
The detonation of the "defensive" buff spell turned into a dazzling fireworks without any subsequent lethality.
The effect of the blazing attack spell ended at this moment. Aviya, who was pushed by the spell to sprint tens of meters at a high speed, jumped up from the ground and changed from a sliding shovel posture to a swift running.
Her brows were furrowed. She was obviously just conducting an assessment, but the examiner's hand holding the staff was sweating a lot. She was under great pressure. She had experienced many battles and was now in a fighting state unconsciously.
Singing at high speed, the magic power is called by the examiner as quickly as possible while being suppressed, and turned into the spell to be used. One of the best spells to deal with enemies on the ground, ground stab, she wants Aviya to There is no way to get close to her.
After completing the spell very quickly, a solid ground thorn rises from the ground with the examiner as the center, breaks through the ground, and attacks any enemy traveling on the ground.
After releasing this spell, the examiner immediately began to prepare a displacement spell. The second-level displacement spell Storm Breakthrough was a standard method for dealing with close knights. Either take the time to stay away or be blown away.
However, a wave of magic power burst out from the firelight that had not completely dissipated, sweeping over the ground thorns and the examiner's body that were spreading attacks around.
The moment he was swept by this magic power, the examiner realized that what he was facing was not exactly a knight, but a spell caster. In order to complete the simple magic circuit structure of casting the spell as quickly as possible, the examiner was attacked by Aviya, who was also a spell caster. Seized the opportunity.
The caster uses magic interference techniques. When faced with an unstable magic circuit, a targeted magic pulse is enough to disturb it until it collapses.
Spellcasters generally try their best to ensure that the spells they release are stable, but when facing the attacking knights, they have to cast spells as quickly as possible. At this time, they can only use spells that can be constructed faster but are not stable enough. Magic circuit.
This is not a big deal at first. After all, the knight cannot cast spells, and the unstable magic circuit cannot be exploited. However, the examiner is now facing Aviya, who is also a spell caster. This flaw was discovered by the girl without any delay.
The earth thorns that spread outward collapsed and shattered into fragments of earth and stone, and the strong airflow that had just gathered around the examiner also turned into a breeze and dissipated.
Aviya quickly rushed in front of the examiner, and the shock invasion spell was attached to the full-metal staff in her hand. It fell with the girl's fighting spirit-blessed arm, hitting the examiner who collapsed after the displacement spell was interfered with. On top of the magic shield.
The power of the junior trainee knight, the weight of the metal staff, and the concussion invasion spell carrying powerful vibrations, the triple destructive power was released on the magic shield without reservation at the same time, smashing it to pieces.
The assessment ended in less than a minute.
