The gray merchant looked happy: "Really? Mr. Ermi really has a way?"
Angel nodded.
Gray Merchant: "If Mr. Ermi can really hand over my memory, all the conditions I have mentioned before will be effective, and I will swear in my own name to owe you a favor."
Just as Angel was about to speak, the wise master in the air spoke: "If you have any requests, you can discuss them among yourselves after the duel is over. Now, I will give you each five minutes to adjust and prepare for the next duel."
The official wizard's duel has ended, and the next duel will be among the apprentices.
Gray Merchant opened his mouth, wanting to say that if Ermi could really release his memory, the next duel would not need to continue.
But in the end, the gray merchant did not speak, because this duel was not only about his memory, but also determined whether they could continue to explore the underground waterway deeply.
Even though both the Gray Merchant and the Evil Woman, as official wizards, can no longer continue, if the apprentice wins the duel, at least the apprentice will still have a chance to go deeper.
Moreover, it is very likely that this is their only chance to go deep into the underground sewers.
You must know that along the way, they encountered powerful mirror-hiding people, black-robed judges who stood at the top of the wizarding world, and the clone of the Black Earl. If nothing unexpected happens, the garden maze will become a mess in the future.
Originally, the Kingdom of Guman was already in a precarious state of chaos, but now a group of hidden strong men hiding in the underground waterways have appeared. It can be said that one wave is coming after another.
The gray merchants don't know what the future will bring. But what is clear is that after this, the Bilos family should no longer dare to have any extravagant thoughts about the garden maze. The so-called traveling merchant organization has probably come to an end.
But let’s talk about the future in the future. He is still a gray merchant, one of the three merchants responsible for cleaning up monsters in the underground waterways and looking for secrets. For one day in office, he will also be responsible for one day.
Moreover, most of Gray Merchant's life is related to the underground waterway, and his most important memory also happened in the underground waterway. Therefore, Gray Merchant actually wants to explore the unknown secrets of the underground waterway more than anyone else.
He didn't want to give up the opportunity, even though he himself had lost the qualification to explore, but the apprentice he brought out still had a chance.
Thinking of this, the words "There is no need for a duel" in Gray Shang's throat were choked back by him.
The gray merchant cast an apologetic look at Angel and his party, expressing his determination to continue the duel.
Angel and the others didn't care. A duel had a beginning and an end, which sounded more pleasant than a breakdown in the middle. Moreover, they also had a supporter of continuing the duel - the Black Earl.
As for the reason, you will know why just by looking at Vai's rolling eyes.
After both parties reached a consensus, they entered the "preparation" stage.
But in the so-called preparation stage, in fact, neither party made any preparations.
The only thing the Black Earl did on his side was to dismantle the birdcage and let the evil woman go free.
On the Gray Shang side, because Fen Mo was silenced, no one spoke. The apprentices just looked at each other a few times and seemed to have a strategy. It can be seen that they often cooperate with each other and have a very high level of tacit understanding.
Time passed slowly... During this process, Vai looked at the Black Earl from time to time, wanting to say something, but in the end he still became dejected.
Vai really doesn't want to fight, but even if he wants to fight, he still hopes to get support...for example, support from Master Chao Dimension.
But it seems that his master does not intend to let him use extraneous means, which makes Vai feel very uncomfortable.
Finally, the time given by the wise master to both parties to prepare has come.
"Come on, at least your adults won't ignore death. Besides, it's time for you to actually fight. The last time I saw you fight was...a few decades ago?" Doakes patted Vai on the shoulder.
The words were comforting, but the expression was filled with gloating.
Vai waved away Doakes' hand and sneered coldly: "Don't be complacent, don't forget, you were my defeater at the beginning. I also have evidence of your defeat here, do you want me to show it to everyone?
?”
Doakes' eyes widened suddenly: "Did you use the photo stone at that time?"
Vai hummed twice: "Scenes worth remembering should naturally be kept for a long time and taken out for review from time to time."
Doakes pointed at Vai, his hands trembled a little, and his cheeks turned red. But in the end, Doakes swallowed back the arrogance without saying anything.
Doakes' reaction made everyone curious about the photo stone in Vai's hand... It seems that Doakes has something in Vai's hands?
Although Vai had the upper hand in the conversation with Doakes, it did not bring him much comfort.
He still has to play!
Vai sighed and slowly walked onto the arena. In the short journey, he was taken out of the miserable atmosphere, as if he was walking on the last stage of life and death before the guillotine.
When Vai came on stage, not only did the atmosphere arouse, it also made the gray merchants opposite him full of surprise.
The Gray Merchant and his team are actually ready to go on stage first. After all, no matter what, there are four apprentices on their side, while there are only two apprentices on the opposite side. Having taken advantage of them, if they still insist on going on stage later,
That is also very uninteresting.
Therefore, they only waited for the Wise Lord to make an announcement and then prepared to take the initiative. However, they did not expect that the opponent had already entered the stage before the Wise Lord announced anything.
Although we still don’t know the name of the apprentice playing on the opposite side, we can know from the redness of the mirror that the person playing is the descendant of Noah.
"It's your turn." The wise master glanced at the dejected Vai, and then looked at the gray merchant.
The gray merchant and the evil woman looked at each other and said nothing in a tacit understanding. At this time, Vai had already come on stage. With their eyesight, they could naturally see Vai's general advantages and disadvantages. If they came to give guidance, it would be equivalent to taking advantage of the situation.
Taking advantage of each other. Therefore, it is better for the four apprentices to decide who will go up and who will go down.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for the apprentice room, we have actually decided to let the demon elephant go first. That is because the demon elephant has a battlefield advantage no matter who it faces.
But now, the ones they are most concerned about are the descendants of Noah. This requires making other arrangements.
The descendant of Noah dared to take the stage first. Even though he acted like he was "unwilling to fight", having such courage means that his strength is absolutely indistinguishable.
With a big family behind him, he must have powerful offensive items, and there should be no shortage of alchemy potions. And these are not prohibited in a duel.
Therefore, if you let the demon elephant carry the cauldron from the front, you will probably suffer a loss.
The four apprentices looked at each other, and finally, they focused on the apprentice with the lowest sense of presence.
…
In the first apprentice duel, Vai fights against the ghost.
Previously, when the wise master introduced the Gray Merchant and his party, he only focused on the Evil Woman and the Gray Merchant. As for the four apprentices, he only mentioned their general categories and didn't say much. Mainly, the apprentices had nothing to pay attention to.
of.
Ghost Shadow, in fact, there is no need to say much about Wise Master. From his nickname, you can know that he is a shadow apprentice.
It's not too surprising that the other party sends out a shadow apprentice.
The two apprentices here, Kael and Vai. Kael's temperament is academic at first glance, and the combat power of the academic has always been despised by the combatants, so Kael must be the one who has been ignored.
As for Vai, the characteristic of his mirror turning red has already proven that he is a descendant of Noah, and the opponent will definitely take him seriously.
In this case, it is actually a better choice to send out the Shadow type, which has strong survivability and a more scout-like combat style. With the ability of the Shadow type, it is completely possible to fight in the long term.
The longer the battle lasts, the more the opponent's abilities are revealed.
In the end, even if the ghost was defeated, he had tested out most of Vai's abilities, which would allow the next player to attack in a targeted manner.
If you want to avoid this situation, you can only seize the opportunity and kill the ghost quickly and accurately.
However, Angel thought about it carefully and found that Vai is an apprentice of the earth system, and the earth system is among the elements and is one of the few elements that is good at confrontation on the material level. The shadow system is more energy-oriented, so Vai and ghosts
I'm afraid it won't be easy if the movie is on.
This is probably also the opponent's strategy.
"Oh ho ho~ I'm being targeted~" Doakes' laughter was a little arrogant, which made Vai on the arena couldn't help but turn around and glare at him.
At this time, Kael also murmured in the spiritual belt: "Maybe, I should go up first..."
The space system is a strong system in the mysterious side. It can target both the material world and the energy world. There is basically no restraint. This is why, once most wizards choose to practice across systems, the space system
They are all prominently listed.
If Kael faces the ghost, the ghost will not dare to draw a long line to fight, and must fight quickly. Otherwise, Kael can compress the movement space of the ghost as long as he keeps opening gaps in the surrounding space. If
If you directly open a slit in the ghost's body, the ghost will have to admit defeat immediately if it wants to survive.
Therefore, it is impossible to delay the fight against Kael. The longer you delay, the smaller your advantage will be.
This is also the reason why Kael sighed at this time.
"If you go up, the other side may not send ghosts. Maybe you will face demon elephants." Doakes said aside.
Demon Elephant is a bloodline apprentice. Judging from the purity of the blood he exudes, he should be of the bloodline like Gray Merchant in the future.
The wide opening and closing of the blood side can not only draw a long line with you, but also can explode quickly to achieve the effect of a quick victory. When an academic like Kael faces a blood side apprentice like the Demon Elephant who is a practical school, there is no exception.
The means are basically useless.
Kael thought about it and felt that what Doakes said was right, but...
"Actually, there is no need to let Vai appear first. If they appear first, we can judge whether it is me or Vai who should deal with it first."
Doakes: "Well..."
Doakes paused and glanced at the Black Earl who was floating to the side. Whether Vai went up first or last must be the Black Earl's decision, so it was the Black Earl who should answer Kael's question.
However, the Black Earl seemed to have no intention of saying anything. Doakes thought for a while and said: "When you go to explore the ruins, if an encounter occurs, are you still going to ask the other party to cooperate with you, preferably with the attributes you restrain?
"
"Besides, even if it's not a sudden encounter, if you go to participate in the Sky Tower game, you have no way of predicting who your opponent will be, whether you will restrain the opponent or be restrained by the opponent."
Kael: "That's what I said, but..."
Doakes gestured "Shhh" and then said: "Stop it. Think about Vai's identity again."
Doakes lowered his voice, even though it made no sense in the mind-tether.
"The opposite side is the minions of the Bilos family, and Vai is a descendant of the dignified Noah family. We are both wizard families, and we are fighting for more than just victory. For this reason alone, he cannot choose the easy difficulty."
Of course, these words are Doakes's guesses. However, he is not without a target. He and Vai have taken risks together, and Vai has complained more than once. At some point, family background will not only not be a plus, but
It will become a burden.
After all, the wizard family and the wizard organization are different. A family loses both when it suffers and prospers when it prospers, so it pays more attention to reputation. This is something that even a top family like the Noah family has a hard time getting rid of.
This does not mean that wizard organizations do not value reputation, but there are many factions in wizard organizations, and many factions often lead to factional feuds due to uneven distribution of resources. Sometimes, the dilemma of external public opinion is itself a problem for the organization.
It was caused by other factions in the country, and their own people criticized each other, so the reputation issue naturally became a marginal issue. It's not that it's unimportant, it's just... not as important as imagined.
So, based on this, Doakes made this guess.
From the fact that Earl Black did not refute, we can know that at least what he said is not wrong. Maybe it is not the most correct answer. Maybe Earl Black just wants to exercise Vai's crisis handling ability, but there should be some reasons for the family's burden.
Kael was confused when he heard this. He didn't expect that there was such a connection between wizard families.
Angel is relatively understanding. After all, bringing the wizard family into the traditional relationship between nobles can also be true as Doakes said.
…
While they were whispering, the battle on the arena had already begun.
Just as they had guessed, the ghost figure sent by the other party showed its appearance at first, revealing that it was a man wearing a dark mask, and then it got into the shadow on the ground like an Ermi.
However, Ghost Shadow is just an apprentice after all, and is far from comparable to Ermi.
Ermi can hide when there is a shadow, but when there is no shadow, he turns into a shadow giant and fights hard. But the ghost shadow is different. His abilities can only be exerted through the shadow, and the arena is bright and there are no buildings that can show shadows around it.
, the only one with a shadow is Vai.
It is impossible for a ghost to burrow into Vai's shadow from the beginning. This is an act of suicide.
Therefore, in order to create a shadow on the ground, the ghost shadow created a mist above the arena before disappearing. The shadow of the mist served as his protection.
This kind of fog is different from the illusion used by Angel. It is a trick commonly used by the shadow system, commonly known as: fog technique.
Although there is a common name, most apprentices of the shadow system, or in other words, all wizards who have used fog techniques, use fog techniques from different sources.
Some are special consumables concocted, some are energy mists that combine multiple tricks, and some are illusions created with light and shadow. Of course, there are also alchemy props...
Because the source of each type of fog magic is different, therefore, if you want to crack the fog magic, you must have a little basic knowledge and a low vision.
If Vai wants to defeat the ghost, his first priority now is to break the fog spell so that the opponent can't hide.
Looking at the white mist above the arena, Vai's mind began to race rapidly...
