Age of Adepts

Chapter 14: Mary returns

Views:

When the stone door is closed, the practice room becomes a closed space, and Greem doesn't have to worry about being spied on when doing anything in it.

Greem took two steps forward and stood in a strange rune circle with a diameter of two meters. He didn't know any of the weird runes etched on it, obviously this was beyond the knowledge range of an apprentice wizard.

But today he was not in the mood to spend his energy on these details, instead he stood tall, silently recalling the entire process of Yan Ya's casting. When his mind settled down, he ordered in a deep voice: "Pay attention to the whole process of monitoring, and correct any mistakes you find!"

"Drip, a new task has been established, and dynamic real-time monitoring has begun..."

With the flickering blue light in Greem's eyes, an almost digital scene space was projected on his retina.

The practice room was still a practice room, but countless tiny blue nodes appeared on Greem's retina, dividing the entire scene space into countless small areas. The body movements that Greem needs to complete next are also cut and split into countless motion phantoms, and he only needs to follow the phantoms to complete this movement.

Finally, Greem, who had stood for a long time, started to move.

I saw him chanting sonorous and powerful mantra syllables loudly, and quickly gestured with his hands in front of his chest. The movements were obviously weird, but they still carried a kind of breathtaking charm. As the spell was completed step by step, Greem's body shone with red light, and a large number of fire elements were summoned, slowly condensing and compressing into an arrow between his dancing hands.

Maybe it was too smooth, but when the 32nd syllable of the spell was chanted, Greem's mind was agitated, and a node of the mental power model immediately collapsed. Under the chain reaction, the entire mental power model collapsed instantly. The berserk fire elements that had been repeatedly gathered and compressed were suddenly out of order, and an earth-shattering fire elemental explosion was about to happen less than half a meter in front of Greem.

However, Greem, who had been prepared for this, took a heavy picture of the card pinned to his chest at the moment the elements were out of order. With the vibration of the card, the rune circle under Greem's feet suddenly raised a witchcraft barrier, enveloping it and the flames that were about to explode.

It's strange to say that the activity of these fire elements, which were still violent and chaotic just now, was covered by the witchcraft barrier, and the activity of the elements was reduced by more than half in an instant. So an elemental explosion that should have been earth-shattering was suppressed into a small firework show.

After the muffled sound of a firecracker, thick black smoke and flames engulfed Greem's figure.

After a while, Greem rushed out from inside coughing loudly.

"Damn... damn... almost made it..."

His face was blackened by the thick smoke, and the clothes on his body were scorched by large areas of flames.

Although he was in the center of the explosion, the activity of the violent fire element was suppressed by the witch formation, so he hardly suffered much damage except for some spicy pain from the flames on his hands and forehead.

The first real implementation failed!

The reason for the failure turned out to be that Greem's own emotional control was too weak. Seeing that success was imminent, he couldn't suppress his excitement, which interfered with the subsequent casting of spells.

Greem summoned some wind elements to blow away the thick smoke in the arena, tidied up his appearance, and applied some prepared ointment on the injured area before standing back inside the rune circle.

Gritting his teeth, Greem started casting the spell for the second time without hesitation.

Maybe it's God's reward for his hard work, maybe it's a matter of course, this time the spell casting is especially smooth and smooth. After a long 13 seconds of casting, Greem finally successfully completed the complete casting of Flame Arrow.

At the moment when the flaming arrows condensed by the berserk fire elements were successfully shaped in his palm, the sweet mechanical sound of the chip sounded again in his mind.

"Drip, a complete mental power model has been detected, please confirm whether it is solidified? This solidification will cost 3 points of mental power and 50 points of professional experience!"

"Sure!" Greem almost couldn't wait to roar in agreement.

"Please name this mental power model?"

"Flame Arrow!"

"The naming is successful! The solidification task begins... The estimated time is 14 hours, 37 minutes and 21 seconds..."

After dealing with the things in his mind, Greem still needs to deal with the "hot potato" in his hand.

In normal witchcraft, there is only a lag time of 2-3 seconds after the spell is cast. If this time is exceeded, or the body is displaced, it will cause the formation witchcraft to collapse.

The witchcraft that I cast spells exploded in my arms, that scene is simply too beautiful!

So as soon as Greem finished processing the prompt of the chip, he pushed lightly with both hands, and the formed "flame arrow" shot towards the stone man target on the other side of the stone room with a stream of red light.

The flame arrow exploded in the chest of the Stone Man Target. This time, the fire element that died without the suppression of the witch formation, finally revealed his fierce and tyrannical side.

There was a bang.

A fireball the size of a human head suddenly appeared, and then spread into a fierce flame shock wave. The berserk elemental flame instantly pulled everything within a radius of 5 meters into extreme high temperature and heat.

When the aftermath of the flames in the distance gradually dissipated, the stone target's chest was charred black, and there was even a fingernail-sized damage at the core of the explosion.

Water ripples suddenly appeared on the wall on the side of the stone chamber, and a few lines of text emerged on it.

Physical attack evaluation: 5 points

Fire damage evaluation: 16 points

Spell attack range: 150 meters

Spell coverage range: 5 meters

It has to be said that this kind of specialized witchcraft practice room is still very cost-effective. With the help of the chip, Greem might not need the fuzzy data detected by the wizard array, but the rest of the wizard apprentices obviously couldn't do without it. Only through the detection and statistics of the witch array, can they have a more intuitive feeling and control of the witchcraft in their hands, otherwise they can only experience it with blood on the battlefield of life and death.

It only took about a quarter of an hour for Greem to achieve the purpose of the trip and exit the witchcraft practice room contentedly. When the stone door opened slowly in front of his eyes, a beautiful figure waiting in front of the door caught his eyes.

Slender limbs, an embossed figure, fair and tender skin, and an exquisite face... But what caught Greem's eyes the most was the bright red veil skirt and the equally bright flaming red lips.

The only difference from before is probably that the ruby-like blood pupils have disappeared, replaced by the water-shearing pupils rippling like turquoise sea water.

Red Mary!

"My boy, you are indeed here!" Bright red lips squirmed slightly, and Greem spit out a sentence that shocked Greem: "Okay, now that you have found him, you are useless!"

The second sentence of Mary in red was not aimed at Greem.

It wasn't until this time that Greem noticed that this not-so-tall female "neighbor" actually dragged a person in her right hand, Amn who managed the witchcraft practice room.

Mary in red raised her slender hand, and that Amn flew straight away for more than ten meters, fell to the ground and groaned and didn't get up for a long time.

Greem's expression changed.

Although Amn wasn't considered strong, he still had a weight no weaker than that of an adult man. This Mary threw it out casually, and it looked so light that she didn't use any force. Analyzing from this point alone, Greem can tell that she has at least 10 points of strength.

And the swiftness with which she moved her hands and feet clearly showed that her agility attribute was not low. If coupled with her terrifying blood-sucking regeneration ability, I am afraid that even the three strongest apprentices may not be able to please.

Wasn't she taken away by the wizard? How did you come back safe and sound? she…

"follow me!"

While Greem was still thinking about it, Mary in red had stretched out her fair and pink right hand to grab his collar, turned around and strode forward. Greem wanted to hide, but he really couldn't.

Although Greem is only 15 years old this year, he is already half a head taller than Mary in Red in terms of body frame. In order to avoid being dragged by the other party, he could only stagger and quickly follow behind him, not knowing which song he sang today.

public dining room.

It was dinner time, and most of the wizard apprentices gathered here, sitting around in twos and threes, eating and talking about something.

From where they sit and the way they talk, you can basically judge the strength of these small circles and their status in the circle.

After all, there are too few lone wolves like Greem, and most wizard apprentices still prefer to form small groups one by one to defend against competitors with malicious intentions by hugging each other for warmth.

However, just as the atmosphere in the arena was getting warmer, there was a loud bang, and the wooden door that had just been repaired was kicked open again.

All the apprentices stared dumbfounded at the two who rushed in one after the other, their wide-open eyes were full of disbelief.

Red Mary? !

Although most people have never seen Mary's "mutated" appearance, they have already learned about what happened that day from various channels. I thought that even if this Mary in red was not sliced and studied by the wizard, she would be imprisoned on the upper floor of the tower to live a life of captivity that would never see the light of day. Who would have thought that she would still appear here in a big way!

Allen, who was sitting in the middle of the restaurant, immediately darkened his face, and there was an unspeakable fear in his eyes.

He had witnessed the cruelty and terror of this Mary in red. Even if the other party has recovered a harmless appearance to humans and animals, the terrifying memory left in his heart still cannot be wiped out.

Mary in red rushed into the restaurant like a whirlwind, stood with her hips akimbo in the middle of the hall, looked around her coldly, and finally set her sights on Alan, the new head apprentice.

"I, Mary, am back again!"
