Victor's nervousness continued until the next day's game.
He didn't sleep well all night, and when he woke up in the morning, he found that his old antique got up earlier and was already looking in the study.
Victor always remembered that Tyron said that he didn't like things like mathematical calculations, so he didn't become a mage, and he basically adopted the basic strategy of reciting spells.
This time when he saw Tai Lun looking at the formula, he was startled: "Is there any problem?"
Tai Lun shook the paper and said, "There is only one question."
Victor: "???"
Tyron: "Can I take you with me during the game?"
Victor: "…"
Old Antique said sincerely: "It's too cumbersome to calculate. If the opponent sings a bar, I will calculate the spell effect at the same time... I don't need to fight for a minute, and I will die automatically."
Victor said distressedly: "But, but I can't help? Or, you take a break in the middle, don't you want to count every spell?"
"I still really want to carry you in my pocket..." Old Antique muttered in a low voice, shook the paper again, and sighed.
Alas, when he was born and died on the battlefield, every time he faced an evenly matched mage, he would almost die. There is almost no upper limit to the strength of mages in the real Western Fantasy world, although such mages are extremely rare.
At that time, if he could carry Victor in his arms, he would poke Victor every time he fought and ask him to help with calculations, which would save time and effort...
Before dealing with mages, it is good to have a common spell formula, at least there is a certain chance to know the spell effect.
When there is no formula, only experience and knowledge can be used to figure out and guess.
Hearing the element of fire in the chanting, or seeing the icosahedron in the hand gesture—this is already pretty good spell knowledge, and then you can only guess whether it is a fire breathing spell, a fire cloud spell, or a fire ball spell...
Half depends on experience, half depends on luck.
In the real magical world, all mages cherish their own brooms, and no one will disclose their spell composition. Even a spell book that teaches basic elements is priceless. Because for mages, once knowledge is made public, it will inevitably be targeted, and its value will be greatly reduced.
Without a stable social structure, it is impossible to establish a magic research system. Without such a system, spells will always be rare knowledge, and will become rarer with time.
When Odin reached the status in his previous life, his thousands of years of experience in dealing with mages was enough to write an encyclopedia of spell fighting—this kind of knowledge was even more valuable. A descendant of an assassin who is famous across the continent.
In the interstellar society, what Tyron likes most from the beginning to the end is the popularization of knowledge.
Everything here is quite the opposite. Incomparably precious knowledge can be taught publicly, and some people even write popular science books on difficult content. Not only were spells ubiquitous enough to be codified into formulas, but everyone discussed their stuff openly, taking pride in sharing their experiences—and everyone took it for granted.
Tyron was flipping through the spell book written by Scarlet himself.
This is a version from a year ago. Scarlet would occasionally share her experience. It is not unreasonable for mages to respect him as a "God of Dharma".
From the spellbook of a mage, it is obvious to see his tendency.
Scarlet is a player with extremely precise calculations. As long as his spell book has data, it is accurate to at least two decimal places, and it also has its own error coefficient. There are rumors that Scarlet also has this style in the arena. When he improvises new spells, he does mental calculations with decimal points...
This kind of calculation ability is definitely a talent, even if it is placed in the entire league, it will not exceed double digits.
Because of this terrifying mental arithmetic ability, Scarlet used the skill of spell reconstruction to be frantic - he set a world record for spell reconstruction.
If conditions permit, Scarlet can reconstruct a spell four times at its peak state! Four times!
for example:
You know he wants to cast an instant fire spell, and Scarlet knows you know it, so he suddenly sings a verse, and the spell becomes Hand of Fire; you have some knowledge of spells, recognize Hand of Fire, and he knows you Got it, so he suddenly sang a new verse, and the spell changed into Hydra; you tried hard to hide, but when he saw it, he immediately restructured into a flying Hydra with its own tracking; you finally collapsed , activated the skill to prepare for hard resistance, and then Scarlet realized that there was a chance to kill you, and rebuilt it into a more powerful version of the automatic tracking flying fire dragon in 0.5 seconds...
Ah, friend, lie down and let the fuck go.
In addition to this point, another feature of Scarlet is that it is intertwined, and the setup is tight.
He basically doesn’t play with probabilities, he’s not a gambler, as long as he makes a move, there’s at least 80% certainty that things will go according to his plan—
Because he will block all the remaining roads for you in advance.
A mage who knows a little bit about all spells, if he is also a master of evocation, there is almost nothing he can't do.
From the perspective of a Master Assassin, all the experience of dealing with this kind of mage can be summed up in two policies: the first is "to attack the unprepared, and to kill to death".
Unfortunately, in the e-sports arena, there is no real sneak attack at all. Everyone can say that they are ready to be fully alert. This is why the stealth-style assassin class is not strong here.
The remaining second policy is to "wait for an opportunity and strike back with thunder".
—Find a flaw, and then take him away in an instant, at any cost, and never give him a chance to breathe and make a comeback.
It didn't take Tai Lun too much time to think about tactics, and he didn't even forget to run two extra laps for exercise at noon.
Probably because Victor was too nervous yesterday, the soup that he spent all afternoon stewing was extremely delicious. Tai Lun ate a lot of Cordyceps sinensis in silence, and he felt a sense of boundless energy when he started running today.
What a great feeling to have family!
Old Antique, who had his own family, was in high spirits, and took Victor back to the contestant seat.
The match between him and Crimson was scheduled for the afternoon, and there was only one match in the whole afternoon, while other people's rankings were arranged in the morning.
Watching other people's games is a refreshing way for Old Antique. Sometimes seeing young players (for him, they are all "young") fighting hard on the field gives him a feeling of going back to the past in the training field. What it feels like to see the little boys sweating profusely in training.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Scarlet also appeared on the seat.
The two people who are about to compete for the championship are not too far away. Before the parties have any reaction, the director and the audience stand up as if they are facing the enemy. Even the side screens quickly gave two shots respectively.
Scarlet looked at the camera, only to realize that Odin was there, and turned around to say hello, as if she had known him in advance.
There were several seats in the middle, and there was no way to talk. Tai Lun didn't take it seriously, so he nodded, indicating that he had seen it.
— is a two-second episode for them.
As a result, the media and audience comments on the side of the road exploded!
"The championship battle started ahead of schedule? 'Fa Shen' Scarlet and 'Big Devil' Odin Qiqi appeared at the national competition! Is it purely passing by to watch the match, or is it intended to put psychological pressure on the opponent? Experts are invited to analyze for us..."
"In my lifetime, I actually saw two 'frigid' male gods in the e-sports circle greet each other..."
"The dark tide is raging, there must be something strange behind it! Does Scarlet's action just now look like a spell-casting gesture? Odin's nod must also have a deep meaning!"
... God knows, in fact, the two of them just greeted each other casually.
Victor noticed the audience's over-interpretation, and tugged on Lateron's sleeve dumbfounded.
Tai Lun: "Those who are free, let them go."
Victor whispered: "No, I just want to know... When did they call you a 'frigid' male god!"
Tai Lun took a closer look, and the comment had already been swiped to a distance of 108,000 miles, and he couldn't see it at all.
"Whether it's cold or not, you know best." Old Antique leaned closer and said calmly, "They still talk about icebergs, am I iced? You were still complaining about being hot the day before yesterday."
"..." Victor felt that he must be too dirty, and he seemed to hear the ambiguity.
Tai Lun breathed under Victor's ears, and then saw goosebumps in satisfaction: "After the game, let's rent a hot spring."
Victor couldn't help asking, "How many days?"
"30 days."
Victor groaned, blushed, and whispered: "Okay, I'll find a spaceship with a hot spring..."
Tai Lun said meaningfully: "One hot and one cold should be paired with springs, and ones with non-slip feet."
Victor was cooked with a bang, with smoke billowing from his head, and said, "No, don't play like this..." Who the hell! Who made my old antiques open the door to the new century! ! You even know such an unpopular way to play, so give me back my clean old antiques! ! !
…
After a few seconds, the public screen stopped discussing Crimson and Odin, and began to wonder: "Why is the agent so blushing?"
"What did the big devil turn his head and say, I really want to know!!!"
"Is fourth master going to propose in the provincial competition and announce the wedding in the national competition?"
And the daily life of fans that will never be missing: "The side face of God of War is so beautiful that I can suffocate, lick, lick, lick!!"
Not long after, the final match of the morning was over—Vando was ranked in the quasi-fourth position. In the next round, he will basically be matched to Kyushu. It depends on whether he can win Kyushu in the national competition this time, and he will make great progress.
Surprisingly, Fando came down to find Odin directly after finishing the game.
There was no game going on at this time, and the camera was decisively shown to these two high-profile assassins.
Fando deliberately hid from the camera, walked over and put a virtual key in front of Tyronn's eyes, and said dejectedly: "...someone wants to see you."
