Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 265 Fate
On June 49, Year of the Golden Calendar, the duel competition finals finally kicked off.

After entering the quarter-finals, the first half of the game was not interesting. The four demigods seemed to have already decided on the candidates. First, Rakad and Latane resigned from the competition, and then Lani was absent from the semi-finals. , it took less than ten minutes to determine that Lucia would advance to the finals.

Regarding this result, most of the forces expressed regret, but there was not a single voice of doubt - anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was a result that had been agreed upon long ago by the demigods and even the three dynasties and colleges they represented. Anyone who comes has to shut up and obey. No matter how stupid you are, you won't dare to talk nonsense on such a topic.

On the other hand, compared to the lower half who fought back and forth, every demigod showed absolute suppression in the duel. If any one of them is thrown into the lower half, the outcome will most likely be The demigods are fighting among themselves. This method of leaving a spot in the finals for everyone to compete for is already giving everyone face.

Therefore, in the four days starting from the 26th, everyone devoted their attention and enthusiasm to the second half of the competition. Yug and Adulla defeated Seliya's Jennings and Roy Hai successively. Le, although neither game was one-sided, the two winners still had the upper hand most of the time and won the victory as expected.

Until the semi-finals of the second half, the battle between Haimo's second professor Yog and the wild mage Adulla once again defeated the outside world's most extreme understanding of the concept of "wild mage".

No one knows the origin of this girl wearing a cloak and mask. It is said that even her qualifications were obtained from the academy by knocking down seven high-level mages who passed the audition on the street. .

What's even more frightening is that most of the spectators can't even tell what kind of magic she uses - at best, they can only judge from the surging magic energy and the fleeting array of runes that it is obviously different from Regarding the "magic" of prayer, there is no way to tell which magic school the spells constructed by those rune arrays belong to.

Judging from the form of expression, the lightsaber magic that Adura picked up at his fingertips is very different from the traditional pyroxene magic, but has some shadows of the magic of the Calian royal family. However, in the eyes of experts who are truly knowledgeable in Kaliya's magic, Adura's sword magic is only similar in appearance to Kaliya's Great Sword and other magics, but the underlying principles are completely different.

In terms of effectiveness and power, other offensive and defensive magics she uses have surpassed most of the pyroxene magics, and even quite a few origin magics are hard to match.

But if you delve deeper into the structure of its runes and the principles of the spells, you will find that Adulla's methods are simple to the point of being crude, both in terms of invoking methods and release forms. It is not so much "magic" as it is a combination of The result of excessively powerful magic being poured out indiscriminately.

If the magic reserves of other mages are compared to a pond, Adura's magic power is like an entire mountain lake. All she has to do is to open a gap in the cliff by the lake, and the torrent sloping down will be enough to block the Everything that came before was crushed to dust.

At the same time, Adulla's physical fitness and melee fighting skills also astonished people. Yog, who has always been known for his melee strength, actually fell into a disadvantage in front of this girl who was two or three heads shorter than him. Most of the time, he was defeated. They had to adopt long-distance fighting tactics.

The battle between the two lasted for a full hour. The magic bombardment poured out by Adulla almost turned the ground of the entire Star Arena, and Yug's war hammer also shattered into countless pieces during the fight. Metal fragments. In the end, Yug Sheng gained more precise and delicate control over the magic power, and slowly regained the upper hand in the protracted battle.

At the end of the fight, Adura, who seemed to still have the strength to fight, chose to surrender voluntarily - the reason was that her magic power had been completely exhausted, and fighting again would be purely physical strength, and even if she won, she would not be able to win.

After the semi-finals, it took Yug two full days to readjust his state. During this period, all parties adopted an attitude that was countless times more enthusiastic than when they recruited Evan Dana, trying to attract Yadula to join.

But to everyone's surprise, this mysterious girl ran more confusingly than when she appeared. She disappeared on the island of Rhea Lucalia under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes day and night, and she was fine before leaving. He walked away from the top four rewards in the college warehouse without even arousing the slightest notice from the guards.

The discussion caused by this storm lasted for two or three days, and it was not until the finals on the 30th that the heat was finally subdued.

Although each family still considers searching for Adulla's traces as the highest level task of this conference, everyone knows that since a strong man of this level deliberately wants to escape, he will probably not be found, or It would be more appropriate to focus on the final battle between Lucia and Yog. At noon on the 30th, under the joint gaze of tens of thousands of mages, the last two protagonists of the duel competition, Lucia and Yug, entered the Star Arena from the entrances on the east and west sides.

The former is wearing a pair of silver armor, with the Sword of Night and Fire given by the Full Moon Queen slung across his waist, and a white cloak with the flag of the Ancient Dragon King fluttering behind him. The latter is wearing the black enchanted battle armor standard in Haimo Classroom, and the iconic pointed pointed stone hood that combines a helmet and a mage hat.

Different from the previous battle, this time Yug did not choose the usual weapon combination of war hammer and staff. Instead, he held a crystal sword staff made entirely of blue moon crystal, which can be used as the top magic catalyst. It is an excellent melee blade.

"Realucalia, Haimo Battle Mage, Yug, please give me some advice." Yug put his sword staff across his chest and bowed deeply.

This time, he did not honor him as Professor Haimo, because in front of the ancient dragon god Famu Azra in the Sky City, any title and status are meaningless. In the arena, there is only "battle" as an opponent. Only the words "Master" can be compared with each other.

"Fam Azra, Lucia Sanks, please advise." Lucia also returned the mage salute and greeted calmly.

Standing thirty steps away from Yug, he once again truly felt the murderous intention coming from his soul. Now he could confirm without a doubt that Professor Haimo, whom he had never met before, really wanted to kill him. Kill him.

This feeling was like facing an abyss of hatred and resentment. Countless mud and stains twisted into a vague human shape, and they showed a bloodthirsty smile to him the moment they looked at each other.

Lucia was convinced that with Yug's spiritual perception, she could completely detect that she had understood his thoughts, but it was obvious that the other party didn't care.

At this moment, Yug is like a magic spell that has reached its end. As soon as the bell rings for the war, he can completely tear off the mask that has been concealed for a long time and release all the malice buried in the abyss.

"Before we start, I have one last question -" Lucia looked at the man in front of her and tilted her head slightly.

"Professor Yug, I assume that you have discovered your abnormality. Are you willing to tell me who is behind all this?"

While speaking, he used his mental power to block the voices of the two people, ensuring that only they could hear the question and answer.

"I don't know what you are talking about, Your Majesty"

Yug turned his neck stiffly, like a doll that had been in disrepair.

He aimed his dilated pupils at Lucia, his bloodshot pupils regrouped, and whispered in a hoarse voice: "No one can reject His will. Killing you and your husband is the only way for me to become a god." Sutra’s destiny.”
