Therefore, even if the computing power of the intelligent computer is sufficient, he has no plans to specialize in second-ring and third-ring magic for the time being, because it is impossible to form spell slots and the cost-effectiveness is too low.
At this moment, Luo Er, who was standing by, asked abruptly, "I would like to ask, Professor Lin En, are you over 20 years old this year?"
"Not yet, but soon." Lin En replied vaguely. He was not sure if there was any magic that could test bone age, so he tried to be cautious in his words.
"A three-ring wizard under the age of twenty..." Luo Er's expression changed, and he couldn't help but stand up and said, "Professor Lin En, please allow me to challenge you."
Lin En paused, not quite understanding why the other party suddenly did this.
"Master Auguste, the Magic Star, is Mr. Roll's teacher!" Tik lowered his voice and said quietly.
After being reminded by the other party, Lin En immediately thought of such a person.
August, the most famous genius in the land of wizards, became a great wizard at around the age of 24. As for when he broke through to the third-ring wizard, Lin En had never inquired.
However, judging from Roll's reaction, his presence now might have the potential to break the other party's record.
Lin En cursed inwardly, thinking that she should have said that she just looked young, and that she was actually already twenty-five or twenty-six.
The wizards present were very interested in this sudden challenge, especially Philip, Theodore and others who were looking forward to seeing the hellfire that Lame Loud had mentioned, which could not be extinguished once it was lit...
In view of Luo's insistence and the instigation of a group of professors, Lin En, who could not find a suitable reason to refuse, had no choice but to agree.
The location is at the training ground of Yieta Academy!
Due to the flight experiment in the morning and the need to receive two distinguished guests, Hellram gave all the teachers and students in the school a day off. But even so, there were still many wizard apprentices who stayed in the training ground and practiced magic hard.
After all, in the land of wizards, passing the assessment and becoming a formal wizard is the fastest way to change your situation and reach the peak of your life.
But even the most diligent students found it hard to resist the urge to watch the fun, especially after hearing that their Mathematical Olympiad professor was going to duel with another wizard, the wizard apprentices in the training ground immediately surrounded him.
You know, it's rare to see formal battles between wizards on weekdays.
"Johnny, I heard that you came here across the sea with Professor Lin En. Do you know what level of wizard the professor is?" Alok asked curiously while looking at the two people standing on the field.
The gray-haired girl hesitated, shook her head and did not answer. Logically, Lin En should be a first-ring wizard, but in Harbor Town, he defeated the Archbishop of the Holy See, so she could not be sure.
Seeing that Johnny was not sure either, Alok could only turn around and gossip with Pierce and others about the reason why Professor Lynn had a fight with Lord Rawl from the Wizard City.
Regardless of what the onlookers thought, Lynn and Roll stopped twenty meters away from each other after entering the training ground.
"I'm Roll, August's disciple and a second-ring wizard. I would like to challenge Professor Lin of Yieta College." Roll placed his right hand on the witchcraft medal on his chest and bowed slightly. This is the duel etiquette of the wizarding land.
"Since it's just a competition, let's just stop at that." Lin En followed suit and returned the salute, responding concisely.
Chapter 77: Second-ring superior magic—high-temperature steaming!
After a few polite words, the two of them looked at the great wizard who was acting as the referee.
Hellram had no intention of delaying and spoke directly.
"let's start!"
The moment the words fell, Lin En took action first. Seizing the initiative is extremely important in any battle. In an instant, seven [Magic Missiles] condensed and flew out like arrows.
Luo Er frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied. Using zero-ring magic as a test in a formal wizard battle was a bit too contemptuous.
[Secondary - Magical Protection]
Luo Er raised his hand casually, and a barrier made of magic appeared in front of him.
However, what was beyond his expectation was that these seven [magic missiles] actually formed an arc and bypassed the protective wall directly, flying towards him from both sides.
Being caught off guard, Roll's pupils shrank slightly, but his reaction speed was also not slow.
Almost instantly, an invisible magic shield protected Roll in the center. Several [Magic Missiles] hit it, causing ripples, but they were unable to break it.
This is the second-ring magic [Mage Shield]!
But before Luo Er could breathe a sigh of relief, the second wave of [Magic - Barrage] was already approaching!
This time, Lynn didn't hold back.
Those spherical bodies made of magic power were just empty shells. Various flammable and explosive elements were mixed and squeezed together inside, and they exploded at the moment of collision!
Muffled explosions rang out on the training ground.
The protective wall made of magic power was instantly broken, and cracks appeared on the [Mage Shield]...
"Is this really a [Magic Missile]?" Alok, who was watching, couldn't help but exclaimed.
The wizard apprentices were also astonished. They were certainly not unfamiliar with the spell "Magic Missile".
In fact, most wizard apprentices who study elemental science can easily master it, but the power is not satisfactory, so generally speaking, few people are willing to use it.
However, Lynn actually used this kind of zero-ring magic against the enemy in a formal wizard battle, and the power was unexpectedly strong!
On the training ground, Roll had been retreating again and again. Often, he would release a protective magic in the previous second, and in the next second, several magic missiles would hit the same point at the same time, smashing it to pieces with intensive explosions.
Not only that, the number of missiles was constantly increasing, starting from seven and ten, and then becoming twelve and fifteen. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if Lin En didn't want to hurt Roll, the opponent would have been killed long ago.
Is this [Magic - Barrage]?
Several professors present immediately recognized that the magic Lin En was using was the magic improved by the great wizard.
No, that's not the case. After watching for a while, they quickly discovered subtle differences.
Hellram's [Magic - Barrage] presets the flight trajectory of the missile in advance, so that it can avoid obstacles and launch attacks at various angles that are beyond the enemy's expectations. Its destructive power is entirely accumulated by quantity.
But Lin En's magic is different. Each missile has the power of a small fireball, and its flexibility is just as good.
"Professor Lynn must be a genius who specializes in magic!" Philip couldn't help but sigh. A zero-ring magic that was originally used for a feint attack turned out to have a destructive power comparable to a second-ring upper-level magic.
The other professors nodded in agreement, and then all looked in the direction of Herram. They were curious about what the great wizard would think.
At this moment, Hellram did not express any opinion, but just stared at the fight between the two, wondering what he was thinking about...
Compared to the students and professors who were watching the fun, Roll on the battlefield was already sweating profusely. He was well aware of the gap between a second-ring wizard and a third-ring wizard, but he did not expect that the other party could make him so embarrassed by just relying on a modified zero-ring magic.
If I lose like this, I won't just lose face...
Thinking of this, Luo'er's expression became extremely serious, and a ring on his hand emitted a faint fluorescent light.
Three-ring protective spell——[Magic Barrier]!
The next moment, a solid magic barrier appeared around him, blocking all the [magic missiles] flying from all directions!
Although Roll used an alchemical item, Helram had no intention of stopping.
Strictly speaking, various potions and alchemical props are part of a wizard's strength, but people who want to save face generally won't use such things in competitions.
Lin En, who was in overload mode, was also keenly aware of the increase in the strength of the protective magic. He glanced at the slowly decreasing energy reserves of the intelligent computer and immediately decided to fight quickly.
In a flash, thirty-six magic missiles were suspended in the air. This was the limit of his spellcasting!
This attack is comparable to three-ring magic!
Luo Er looked at the magic balls flying from all directions with a serious expression. He raised his index finger and shook it slightly in the air. An invisible wave spread forward in a semicircle.
These thirty-six magic missiles exploded in mid-air before they got close!
Continuous explosions sounded on the training ground.
Alok and others, who just thought that Lin En was going to win, were stunned where they were, confused for a moment. Could it be that something went wrong when the professor cast the spell?
It hasn't even hit the enemy yet, why did it explode?
"Sure enough!" A smile appeared on Luo'er's lips. After fighting for more than ten seconds, he had already sensed the weakness of this magic.
While the opponent turned the magic missile into an explosive, it also made the spell itself extremely unstable. It only needed a little force to destroy the empty shell on the surface, and it would explode spontaneously.
Now, it's time for him to fight back!
And it’s the same mocking tit-for-tat!
The moment dozens of missiles exploded, Roll activated the zero-ring magic [Water Condensation]. A large number of yellow-green water droplets appeared around his body and, with the help of the smoke and dust raised by the explosion, shot towards Lin En like a continuous rain of bullets.
The moment he realized that the magic had been broken, Lin En activated one of the few protective magics he knew - [Ice Curtain]!
A shield wall made of ice rose from the ground and blocked in front of him.
However, after the smoke from the explosion cleared, Lin En immediately discovered something was wrong, because the opponent's attack method seemed different from what he expected.
Luo Er raised his hand and clenched his fist. Countless yellow-green water droplets burst instantly, sublimating into a high-temperature, highly toxic, and highly corrosive steam flow that directly enveloped Lin En.
This is the second-ring superior magic——【High-temperature steaming and killing】!
Chapter 78: Ice Road
Considering that the opponent was a three-ring wizard, Rawl used all his strength and had no intention of holding back at all.
Philip and others also appreciated that Roll's timing of casting the spell was very clever. With the help of a zero-ring magic as a cover, he could definitely catch the opponent off guard.
Of course, no one present thought that this magic could really hurt a three-ring wizard!
Because it only takes a simple second-level spell [Mage Shield], or a more advanced [Magic Barrier] to easily avoid [High Temperature Steaming]...
However, Lynn doesn't know any of these magic tricks!
In fact, [Ice Curtain] was the only protective magic he mastered, but it was completely useless in the face of such a large-scale attack.
The hot and highly corrosive steam had surrounded Lynn from all directions.
All elements used for casting spells are essentially magical mimicry. With his current strength, he has no possibility of reverse manipulation to seize control.
Faced with such a crisis, Lin En had no choice but to use the magic he had just mastered - [Liquid Nitrogen - Ice Field]!
Click...
Accompanied by a slight muffled sound.
In an instant, the highly toxic steam that was about to touch the skin surface was instantly condensed under the terrifying ultra-low temperature. On a hot summer day, yellow-green snowflakes actually fell from the sky!
Lin En moved forward step by step, and the terrifying low temperature spread forward at a faster speed...
"Is it the [Ice Field]?" Luo'er's expression was a little solemn. No matter what, he finally forced the other party to use the three-ring magic.
[Multiple - Pyroblast]
Luo Er raised his hand again, and the second ring on his finger lit up, ready to use the airflow and scorching heat caused by the violent explosion to temporarily slow down the spread of the field!
