Zombie's travel diary

Chapter 209 Can only fireball?
Gold graduates!
As soon as you hear the name, you know that it is full of gold and is a rare good thing.

And the fact is indeed the case. In previous years, this thing was only awarded to the top six students in the first six classes.

One in each class, and those who can get this thing are basically the well-deserved masters of the class, and there are even many people who can crush No.2 twice as strong!
Each graduation season only produces six gold medal graduate certificates. If this is not precious, then the school has nothing precious.

Generally speaking, as long as you have a gold graduate certificate, you can most assuredly be able to take up an important position in a certain fief of the Mufeng Empire, and it is not impossible to even work in the King's Castle in the capital Mufeng City.

It can be said that as long as you have this certificate, you can do well even if you just live and wait to die without trying to find a job and rely on the job assigned by the state!
and.

The assigned job is still an iron rice bowl like a civil servant!
Who doesn't like this?
"As for?"

After hearing the news, Link clearly felt that the super-talented bosses beside him became more restless.

It seems that a stable job, even in a magical civilization like the Western Fantasy Plane, has a lot of temptation.

"There are only six certificates each year, as long as there are [-] people who pass the competition, everyone has a share."

The teacher on the podium emphasized it again, and the students below also cooperated a little more restlessly. Every student seemed to be gearing up and eager to try.

"Then let's stop talking and start testing."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the students with medium talent and high talent, "The reason why they are tested first is to let you see how the actual combat performance of a one-star magician is, and it can be regarded as an addition to you." Some experience, this will be very helpful when you are promoted to one star in the future."

It is almost a traditional project of the Magic Academy to let the one-star magicians perform a few battles before the freshmen start their studies to open the eyes of these freshmen.

It's just that, in previous years, the acting battles were all done by second-year seniors, but this year it was replaced by students with special talents who were also freshmen, but their strength crushed the same level.

Not only those students, but even the teachers are looking forward to the next performance of the super talented students.

They want to see what kind of strength the magicians who have not been trained by the academy system and have grown up on their own can show.

"Actual combat performance...does this mean to fight?"

The group of students with medium talent and high talent immediately became excited when they heard this.

They thought it would be such a boring project for these exceptionally gifted students to compete, for example, to see whose magic knowledge was more solid and who could memorize magic theory more smoothly.

I never expected that it wasn't these boring things at all, it was an intense and exciting actual combat exercise from the very beginning!
This is very interesting.

All of a sudden, the dissatisfaction that the middle and high gifted students had to wait for the special gifted students to be assigned to the class after the completion of the competition was swept away. Everyone became excited and looked forward to the next battle.

As for Link, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

The actual combat is not bad, not to mention his magic proficiency, at least he still has some combat experience.

If he really wanted to engage in things like magic knowledge, he could directly declare GG, after all, he hadn't touched much of these things at all.

"The magic arena has been built, and the students whose names will be called next, please come to the stage."

Seeing several teachers cast spells together and cast a square arena in the center of the playground with earth-type abilities, the teacher on the podium looked at Link and his party again and said in a deep voice.

After making sure that all the students understood what he meant, the teacher opened a piece of parchment that he had been carrying in his arms all the time, on which the list of all the exceptionally gifted students was automatically displayed.

"Baiqi, Link." The teacher's voice sounded quickly.

"Ok?"

Link couldn't help being stunned for a moment, didn't expect him to be the first one?

Logically speaking, shouldn't he be the last to come on stage?
With doubts in his mind, Link had no choice but to walk to the side of the ring, and jumped onto the ring. Opposite him, a boy with a strong physique and a resolute face had already stood firmly.

"This face looks like an earth magician."

Link thought to himself, if this student named Bai Qi wasn't from the soil department, he would be sorry for his rock-like face.

And this time.

On the edge of the playground, a gray-haired old man was watching Link on the ring.

"No matter what your status is, let's talk about your weight first."

Movsky murmured, and his figure gradually became blurred. He was clearly there, but people couldn't concentrate on him.

Almost no student on the playground noticed this, including Link.

"Before the official start, let me explain the rules of the game."

Seeing that Link and Ke were already in their seats, the teacher cleared his throat and said, "This competition adopts a promotion system. There are exactly 20 students. The winners will enter the next round until the final ten students are determined. So far, 40 to [-] students will be directly qualified to join the second grade, and the top ten will have the right to choose a class first. No. [-] to No. [-] students can participate in the resurrection competition, and the winners will also have the qualification to join the second grade class! "

After reading the very official rules of the competition, the teacher eagerly gave the order to start the competition regardless of whether the students understood it or not, as if the ring was rented and was eager to return it.

"It's started, it's started!"

The students onlookers were very excited, staring at the ring one by one.

They wished that the teacher would talk less nonsense and hurry up to watch the game.

Since it is illegal to fight privately in the city, more than [-]% of these students who have never been to the wild and are still in the ivory tower have never seen a real magician duel.

How can I not be excited when I finally see it now?
The students cheered excitedly one by one.

And this time.

Swish!
The student Bai Qi on the opposite side reacted quickly. The moment the teacher gave the order, his whole body moved and rushed towards Link.

"As for what?"

Link spread his hands, at least say hello and chat for a while before calling, right?
Which one who fought with him before couldn't say a few words?
How did Bai Qi pull the cross?
Bang!
A fireball was instantly condensed by Link and thrown towards Bai Qi.

This is the first time he has participated in a battle as a pure magician, so naturally he has to be more serious, otherwise the loss outweighs the gain if he cannot join the second grade class.

click-

Before the fireball technique flew to the front, Bai Qi, who had been on guard for a long time, stopped his body, put his palm on the ground, and then slammed the net, creating a wall out of thin air.

It really is the soil system!
Boom!

The fireball hit the earthen wall and burst into flames, but it couldn't cause any damage to Bai Qi on the other side of the earthen wall.

"Isn't this elemental restraint? I knew I wouldn't learn the fire element."

Seeing this scene, Link's mouth twitched.

At the beginning, he learned the fire element purely because the magic of fireball is relatively common. He took this path without thinking much, but he didn't expect it to be a bad thing.

It seems that there are too many elemental magics that can restrain the fire system!
Fortunately, he is only a one-star magician, and he can still switch to the major department when he practices later, but this has to be determined after testing the other talent values ​​​​of each element department.

boom!
Shaking his head to put away these distracting thoughts, Link condensed a fireball technique again, and blasted at Bai Qi again.

It's not that he doesn't want to change his tricks, but because he knows such a fireball technique, and he has never learned other magic skills...

The one-star magician broke through by himself, and no one taught him magic tricks during this period. Just this fireball trick, he learned it accidentally when he was possessed in Gina Duo's body. As for other magic tricks, That's no contact at all.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be confused, so he chose the fire department as his major.

boom -

The fireball hit the dirt wall again, bursting into flames.

Bai Qi hid behind the earth wall speechlessly. He had just thought of going around the earth wall and continuing to charge towards Link, but he didn't expect to be covered in a fireball again the next moment, which made him fail to hide in a hurry. , was actually burned by the sparks from the fireball.

Fortunately, this little damage is nothing to him as an earth element.

"Two fireballs in a row, I think the supply of magic power can't keep up with it."

Thinking of this, Bai Qi walked around the earth wall he had created, preparing to charge Link again.

There is no way, this is the embarrassment of the earth magician, there is no effective long-range attack method at the beginning.

however.

He just had time to poke his head out, and before he was ready to run, he saw a dangling fireball flying towards him.

"Is there something wrong with your brain? Are you still here?"

Bai Qi frowned, and immediately retracted his head.

It's true that fireball doesn't need mana. If he remembers correctly, fireball is one of the most mana-consuming moves in the early fire magic because of its burst damage.

If Link continues like this, he will soon run out of mana and become a salted fish on a chopping board!
"Since you want to throw the fireball, then throw it."

Bai Qi simply didn't rush to charge, and just seduced Link to use fireball to attack him.

Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
A fireball was thrown, all of which were perfectly blocked by the earth wall, unable to cause any damage to Bai Qi behind the earth wall.

of course.

That's not to say that the bombardment wasn't effective at all.

Many earth walls were smashed by fireballs. After all, besides burning, fireball also has explosive damage, so it can still have some impact on the earth walls.

but.

It is not meaningful.

One earthen wall was smashed, and Bai Qi quickly condensed another one, which was harmless at all.

On average, it takes Link three or four fireballs to destroy one of his walls. Even if his clay wall technique consumes the same mana as Link's fireball technique, Link can't consume him, let alone his clay wall. In the case where the spell saves some mana more than the fireball spell.

If this continues, Link will die sooner or later.

"Students, especially those who want to practice fire, pay attention. This is the most important thing you need to avoid when fighting, meaningless consumption of magic power."

The teacher on the podium watched the battle in the arena, cleared his throat, took the opportunity to use Link as a negative example, and explained to the students watching: "I think you all know that fire magic is naturally restrained by earth magic. Yes, when we face a magician who naturally restrains himself in terms of types, we must avoid being like him. He knows that fireballs cannot pass through the earth wall, but he has to use this trick all the time. Otherwise, after the magic power is exhausted, You can only let mermaid go."

"The correct approach should be to wait for the opponent to get close to me, and then use large-scale group attacks such as fire breathing technique, so that the opponent can only avoid the inevitable and can only eat my own damage!"

"When in close quarters, the early earth magicians didn't have any good means of defense against large-scale group attacks. Although their powerful melee attack ability will also be reflected in close combat, they can't do it anyway. Complete defense, as a fire magician, there is still a chance to cause damage to it and defeat it."

"But like this student in the arena, he has been using fireball attacks, but completely gave up this opportunity."

"In terms of long-range defense, earth magicians really didn't fear anyone in the early days. They have the ability to build a strong bunker at any time, which is enough to crush the defense ability of most other magicians!"

"Before Samsung, when you encounter an earth magician in the future, you can fight close to you if you can. If you can't fight close to you, try to avoid fighting. Remember to consume them blindly."

The students listened intently and nodded thoughtfully from time to time. The words of the teacher on the podium benefited them a lot.

Before this, they had never been exposed to such practical knowledge.

"Why do I need to know tricks like fire-breathing technique?"

Link couldn't help slandering inwardly, but he didn't dare to stop, because if he stopped, Bai Qi would find a chance to charge him.

I really want to be approached by Bai Qi, even if he has more than ten times the physical strength of ordinary people...

Uh……

It doesn't seem too bad.

One-star Bai Qi, even with the blessing of earth magic, is probably at most on par with him.

If you really want to fight head-to-head, you can't tell who will lose.

but.

He can't do this, after all, this is not an actual combat but a competition, and his ten times physical strength is not magic, but a genetic enhancement potion belonging to the technology side.

If he did this, the teacher on the podium would judge him for cheating and disqualify him from the competition if he couldn't guarantee it.

"So I can only spend it like this."

Link thought for a long time, and finally found that maintaining the status quo is the best choice.

but.

He carefully sensed his magic sac. After blasting for so long, it seems that there is still a lot of magic power left?

Oh, by the way, his magic sac is three times larger than that of a normal magician, and his magic storage capacity is naturally three times that of a normal magician. If it is not guaranteed, his magic recovery speed is also three times that of an ordinary magician!
