Magisters and fifth-level dragons are both top representatives of the magic field in the known world.
Many people are full of curiosity about which of these two types of strong men is stronger and who is weaker. Theoretically, the dragon is not only a super-level magician, but also an indestructible aerial fortress and a brave man with infinite combat power. This is more powerful than the magician.
A weak body is not the least bit stronger. However, judging from actual battle cases, the fight between the magister and the dragon usually ends in the magister winning.
Magisters and fifth-level dragons have basically the same ability to control magic. Compared with fire magisters and fire dragons, the dragon uses a higher-level language and can control magic faster and more accurately. However, many times,
Advantages can also turn into disadvantages. Once a dragon reaches the fifth level, it will naturally use forbidden magic, and it has an extremely strong body. All these are innate advantages. And human magisters, in order to have such a supreme title, they
Everyone studies magic almost at the cost of their lives, and must challenge a natural monument like the Begging Tower. The level of hard work is very different, and after that, the proficiency in magic and other systems
The degree of application of advanced magic is completely different.
Especially if a magician possesses a top-quality magic wand, the difference between him and the dragon is already very small.
More importantly, most dragons live alone, and magisters will not challenge dragons alone - those who can fight side by side with magisters, whether they are warriors, thieves, priests or knights, all have extremely high combat power.
In this case, the fifth-level dragon is certainly at a disadvantage.

Chapter 2 Five Drums Tiger Soul
Such bad news was obtained from business travelers traveling in the desert empire and the Holy See.
When the dragon knights were replenishing food and water in a small oasis, they encountered this small caravan that had just traveled a long distance from the Amy Empire.
On the continent of Eminor, there are many such small caravans. Due to their small capital, they cannot monopolize the specialties of certain areas like the big consortiums. In order to make more profits, they have to enter and exit relatively dangerous areas. This
Once, due to the continuous battles of the Chi Aotian Expeditionary Force on the Huayu Plain, many mainland highways were cut off. According to the information coming out of the treehouse bar, the Holy Desert Empire, which had always imported food from the hinterland of the Amy Empire, had been cut off a month ago.
War reserves have begun to be used. According to reliable information, the great nobles of the Desert Empire are willing to purchase grain at ten times the previous price. Many small caravans are selling grain from all over the continent to earn the money. In front of the dragon knights
This small caravan with only more than 20 mercenary guards was one of them. They set out from a small town on the west side of Scambrai that had surrendered to the Myanmar Empire. Before setting off, most of them saw thousands of people with their own eyes.
The orcs and more than a thousand human soldiers came down from the northwest forest. They heard with their own ears that the human soldiers were talking about the news of conquering Hamburg.
Most of the orcs still speak the language of Fanos, but they can hear simple syllables like "hamburger". The human soldiers are all native residents of Eminor and speak the common language of the continent. The residents of the small town have long known this.
The Fanos army is besieging the city of Hamburg. Seeing so many soldiers, interested people will certainly not give up such an opportunity. Many mercenaries, people from the magician union, even businessmen, bards, etc. approached them under various excuses.
, and finally got incomplete news: "The three magisters of Fanos and the eight red archbishops built a flying castle and used this castle to attack the city of Hamburg day and night. At this time, the solid walls of the city of Hamburg
It has been bulldozed. These soldiers came down the mountain at this time to hunt down the imperial soldiers who climbed down from the cliff more than 1,000 meters high."
The four dragon knights were all stunned - all the assets of the small mercenary group were in Hamburg City at this time. Even without Amy and Daqingshan, they still had nearly 10,000 soldiers and unprecedented natural dangers. How could they be conquered? Let alone
There were also more than a thousand elven archers, many magisters, and five dragon knights. The four of them did not believe the news. However, these businessmen would not deliberately deceive.
Finally, Long and Ling Yun agreed that Long and Guan Shan would accompany the two of them back to Hamburg City overnight. If nothing happened in Hamburg City, they would come back as soon as possible. If it was true... then they would join the war in Hamburg City. Ling Yun and Hu suddenly continued to search for the missing Chi.
The proud army.
As a last resort, Ling Yun and Hu suddenly traveled to almost every corner of the Huayu Plain. Later, when they heard that the Pope and the Emperor of Myanmar would attend the completion ceremony of the temple, the two of them approached the original Rhodes City as wandering warriors.
…
"Who is your Excellency?!" The Pope was not familiar with Chi Aotian and did not recognize the man in front of him. However, such a strange situation unexpectedly occurred in the hall dedicated to the God of Light and the God of War. His Majesty the Pope had already identified the young man in front of him.
Classified into the demon clan.
"Tsk--" The young man in black actually laughed disdainfully. Although the young man appeared in an extremely strange way, the young man's sunny smile shocked the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people in front of the temple. A man's smile can turn a city into a king.
The charm of such a man is beyond description. Some young women in the audience even let out a cry of joy.
The hearts of the two young men in white sank into the bottomless abyss - this was not Chi Aotian. No matter how similar they looked, deputy commander Chi Aotian would never have such a smile.
"Who are you, a demon, who dares to offend the majesty of the two gods?" The smile of the young man in black also shook His Majesty the Pope's mind. Fortunately, His Majesty the Pope quickly recovered his demeanor.
"Oh? Lord God?" The young man looked back at the words on the temple, his long black hair blowing in the wind: "So what? Could it be that you are allowed to come to this place, the Lord God is allowed to come, and these people in front of you are allowed to come,
Are you not allowed to come? Isn’t this a big joke?”
"Your Excellency... what is your relationship with Your Excellency Chi Aotian?" the blond king asked in a deep voice.
Chi Aotian? Hearing such questions, there was an exclamation in front of the temple.
After months of endless killings, Chi Aotian is definitely well-known in the Holy See. Some people may not know the name of the current Pope, but there is absolutely no one who has not heard of Chi Aotian. The audience has even heard of him
Showing bouts of panic.
"He?" The smile on the face of the young man in black became even stronger: "I have no friendship with this person." What I didn't expect was that the man in black who looked very similar to Chi Aotian actually pushed him away.
"Then...what are you doing here?" His Majesty the Pope turned slightly pale when he heard the name Chi Aotian. As the highest authority of the Holy See, His Majesty the Pope is very familiar with Chi Aotian's experience.
"Oh...nothing." The young man in black walked a few steps on the stage casually: "I heard that a big temple is going to be built here...oh...wrong...look, I used the wrong word again.
"I'm sorry, it's to build a big hall." As he said that, the young man looked up at the big hall that seemed to tower over the sky: "I like this place very much, and I just wanted to come over and discuss whether I can stay here for a while."
"Your Excellency, this is a place dedicated to the God of War and the God of Light. If you want to live here, you must become a clergyman." His Majesty the Pope is still unclear about the identity of the person in front of him. Is it... really Chi Aotian? His Majesty the Pope used
The words trap this enemy of life and death.
"Really?" The smile on the face of the young man in black became even stronger: "That's nothing. Just ask the two of them to move out. Anyway, I think they have a lot of space here, but I'm...poor
It’s so big, but there’s no place for it.”
"Nonsense! How dare you offend the majesty of the Lord God. Come, kill this madman here, and use his blood to sacrifice to the two supreme gods!" From such rebellious words, His Majesty the Pope immediately judged
The true identity of this young man - besides Chi Aotian, who else would dare to do this? Think about it, what previous actions were done by this damn young man to confuse people.
Dozens of instructors and senior priests immediately rushed up from the audience, and their sharp swords instantly pierced everyone's eyes.
"Oh...why bother...can't we reduce the number of killings?" Looking at the instructors surrounding him from all sides, the smile on the young man's face in black did not waver at all.
The jade-like index finger and middle finger were gently placed on the red and tight lips, and a thin black air ball sprayed out from the lips and coiled around the fingertips. Then, the young man's right hand clicked repeatedly, and a black air ball the size of a bean was shot out.
Towards the five-sided drum in front of me...
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
The black air mass hit the drum surface, as if five strong men were beating the drum with all their strength. The drum stand was obviously drooping under the force, and the huge drum sound spread to all directions like an air wave. The instructors who were rushing at the front were blown away by the air wave.
It was thrown away so violently that the senior pastor behind him was even thrown off the steps.
The Pope and Renault were floating in the air, feeling like they were almost blown away by the sound of drums... Who are these people?
"This must be a demon that dares to disturb the two main gods! Hurry! Summon the Templar Knights and His Royal Highness Renoir's Dragon Knights!" The Pope ordered while gesturing to several red archbishops in the audience.
In order to prevent anyone from causing trouble, the Holy See has already deployed defensive forces. Just as the order was issued, large flags were erected on all sides of the temple. Not only the Templar Knights and the Wild Dragon Knights, but also the Knights Templar and the Wild Dragon Knights came in from a distance.
A legion of Fanos. The instructors used their guns to push out several passages in front of the onlookers, and the knights roared in with their mounts.
"Suddenly, summon the giant dragon! Let them fly high in the sky first, and come down as soon as they are summoned." Ling Yun said as he took out the dragon flute.
Two giant dragons were not far from here. When they heard the sound of the dragon flute, they roared over immediately.
Renault saw faint clouds suddenly appearing in the extremely high sky, and his brows immediately knitted together. As a dragon knight, of course he knew that this kind of faint rotating clouds was an attempt by the dragon or the dragon knight to conceal themselves.
The most common way to trace traces is just... What are the dragon knights doing here? Could it be...
Several leaders of the Templar Knights were all fantasy beast knights. They quickly came to the front of the hall with their subordinates who had dismounted. All the Templar Knights were shocked - Chi Aotian? The man in front of them was actually Chi.
Aotian! During the Battle of Niu Yao, all the Templar Knights had seen the portrait of Chi Aotian. It was definitely this person. Unexpectedly, this person actually escaped the fire in Heyang, Sicily, and was so brave that he ran here.
"Chi Aotian! You need to atone for your sins!" Sheng Yuehan, the leader of the Knights Templar, pulled out a long silver-white sword from the back of the phantom beast.
"Haha... I told you, you admitted your mistake." The smile on the face of the young man in black was not shaken by the sharp weapons in the hands of hundreds of knights: "However, this is nothing. It is what should come and what should be done.
What you have to pay back will happen sooner or later." The young man said as he walked, waving his right hand and tapping each drum lightly.
In full view of the public, the five-sided drum fell down in response to the beating... The drum stand fell into pieces, and a puff of dust and smoke rose faintly.
Huh? Many Templar Knights don’t know what the man in front of them is going to do...
But... just after the drum stand fell to the ground, just after the dust and smoke gradually disappeared...
The index finger of the drum stand that fell to the ground first lightly tapped the granite floor, and the crisp sound of "ding--" pierced everyone's ears like the sound of metal strings.
Before the sound of the strings fell, ten white hand bones started moving at the same time. They ran around nimbly on the broken drum stand, constantly removing one bone, and "chi--" one drum skin was torn apart...
What's very strange is that these ten white hand bones are obviously divided into five pairs. One hand in each pair is mainly responsible for demolition, while the other hand's job is "building" - yes, that is.
Building, to be more precise, is gluing, gluing together the bones, the pieces of skin, and the black air in the drum stand pile.
Not only the millions of onlookers, not just the Templars, but even the two kings were stunned by what they saw. In the huge world, except for the young man in black, everyone's eyes were fixed on them.
The skeletal fingers on the ground are comparable to those of the most dexterous craftsman in the world.
In front of people's dull eyes, five fingers crawled up and down quickly. During the pasting process, the five-sided giant drum disappeared and was replaced by five human skeletons.
Almost at the same moment, the five hands completed their works at the same time. Their last action was to pick up the other hand and stick it on a forearm. Then, the fingers that had been glued picked up them and clicked.
Some black air masses stuck to the other forearm.
Five people!
These are definitely five people! Even the believers in the audience who had no idea at all knew that the five-sided drums in front of them were originally made from the skeletons of five people!
At this time, I saw that these five people were either tall and majestic, or clear and agile, or short and powerful... Each of them had different characteristics, and each skeleton had different characteristics.
Skeletons in different styles.
The right hand of each skeleton holds its own black air mass. In an instant, the black air mass suddenly transforms into a long sword, war hammer, long bow, staff, and thin moon scimitar.
"This is a necromantic monster. Hurry up and surround us. Let's release the sacred magic!" The two red archbishops reacted the fastest. For necromancy creatures, sacred magic is their natural restraint magic, even for a newbie.
Even a small priest can easily kill such low-level skeletons!
Can't speak the master's words:
The update of the online version needs to be stopped for a while. The reason is very simple - we have once again exceeded the chapters of the physical book of the Taiwan Traditional Chinese version.
Regarding the publication of the simplified version, here is an explanation.
"Mercenary World" signed a publishing contract with a company in Xi'an on July 20, 2004. According to the contract, the other party should publish it on December 31, 2004 at the latest. However, it is a pity that the other company did not know
What happened? It has been delayed for 270 days and it still cannot be published. I have sent a formal written request to the other party's company. If the other party is still unable to publish before October 2005, then I will terminate the contract in accordance with the relevant provisions of our country's contract law.
At present, there are five or six publishing houses that are in contact with me. Once the contract is terminated, I will choose a publishing house with a relatively good reputation to cooperate with me.
A good publishing house can invest more money in printing and provide readers with better quality books). I hope to publish the simplified version of "Mercenary World" before the end of this year.
In addition to "Mercenary World", the simplified version also has two side stories "The Furious Dwarf King" and "Descendants of Heroes". The former is about Horns, and the latter is about Amy, Da Qingshan and other descendants. The side stories part
The number of words does not necessarily have to be a lot, the key depends on how much space can be left for arrangement in the end.
Some readers reported that their cities are relatively remote and they may not be able to buy books. I will raise this issue with the publisher and get some books at a lower price. When the books are officially published, I will
I hope to find a better service company that can use mailing to meet the requirements of readers. I don’t know the final retail price of the mercenary yet, but I roughly calculated it, excluding “mailing + registration fee + separate production of packaging boxes”
+ money to buy the book + 5% loss.” In the end, the total cost of mailing is approximately equivalent to between 85% and 95% of the price of the book. Of course, in order to thank readers in remote areas for their continued concern, Xiaona will give each mailing post to the readers.
Please give me an autographed photo - the one of a bald monk. Please accept it.
