Link slowly pulled out his knight's sword, held it tightly with both hands, put away all his playful expressions, and his face became full of passion and solemnity.
The Ankh Sage shrouded in that ball of fire, under the influence of the dazzling fire light around him, did not notice Link's eyes or the blade of the knight's sword in his hand.
At this time, there was already a faint layer of light.
The physical fitness of magicians has always been the weakest among all professions. Even strong men like Anka Sage in the magic tower cannot completely break away from this rule. Without the help of magic, relying solely on physical senses
In terms of sensitivity, magicians are always far behind those strong men of other combat professions, so Anka Sage now feels that Link's actions are a bit incredible. Does he still want to hold that knight?
Is the big sword coming to pierce this purest fire in the world?! This kid doesn't look so stupid, does he?!
Link directly answered Sage Anka's question with his actions. He stepped forward, raised his sword, and stabbed straight at the fire in front of him.
There was a muffled sound of "poof", and the thin outer layer of fire actually dissipated where Link's sword struck.
Sage Anka was stunned for a moment. When he confirmed that Link in front of him was indeed holding the knight's sword and "stabbing" his fire slowly, Anka almost jumped up.
Link's thoughts these days have been all on the scriptures left by the ancestors who built the Mage Tower, and he hasn't paid much attention to other things. In his opinion, except for the Grand Master, all the members in the Mage Tower seem to be the same.
, but they don’t know that although the Mage Tower does not have as many levels as on the mainland, it still has levels such as Mage, Sage, and Grand Master.
There are not too many mages in the entire mage tower, and the sages are the best among them. The total number of sages in the mage tower is less than ten. It can be said that even in the mage tower, the strength of the sages
It can be considered very powerful, and there is even a tacit saying that, apart from not having the power to master the laws, these sages' research on the simple power of their respective lines of magic may even
All above those great teachers.
At least Anka Sage's extremely pure magic flame is something that even the old Master Skuva can't do. Of course, this does not prove that the old Master Skuva is not as good as Anka in fire magic.
Sage, it’s just that the old Grand Master Skuva has gone beyond the pursuit of magical power that can simply cause harm to people.
Sage Anka once experimented with another sage who was proficient in water magic. Even that sage's most powerful water magic could not stop the purest flame in the world he summoned.
So now seeing Link holding the knight's sword and poking away this layer of fire seemingly casually, Sage Anka was going crazy.
"Just poke it? Why don't you try it instead?!" Link was secretly complaining in his heart. The violent and seemingly endless pressure coming from the knight's sword had already made him almost tremble from his hands to his toes.
His whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, and the blazing hot feeling seemed to be able to ignore all distances and began to burn directly from his heart, almost boiling the blood around him.
In the past three years, he has mastered the strange skill of sword energy that should be possessed by a learned swordsman. But the difference with Teacher Calvin is that he has learned to experience the influence in the mage tower.
With the magic elements changing between heaven and earth, Link no longer needs to use that special breathing method to stimulate sword energy, but has his own unique method.
Moreover, Link also discovered a very strange phenomenon during the experiment, that is, this kind of sword energy actually has the function of swallowing magic elements. Wherever the sword energy passes, there will be a short vacuum period of magic elements.
, it can be said that this kind of sword energy is simply the nemesis of all kinds of magic.
Of course, this also has a prerequisite. First of all, it is very tiring to maintain the effect of this sword energy. With Link's current ability, he cannot hold on for long, and he is devouring this magical element.
During the process, you have to bear the counterattack force of this magical element, which is also a very painful thing.
Just like now, under the backlash of this extremely dense and pure fire element, Link has reached the edge of collapse.
Sage Anka was shrouded in the flying fire, and the things outside seemed a bit blurry. The only thing he could see most clearly was the bright and translucent tip of the sword, which was moving towards him bit by bit.
His face moved straight over.
Closer, closer.
Anka Sage has gradually become a little unable to sit still. As the outer fire dissipates, Link's face, which is a little distorted due to too much pressure, is clearly visible. Of course, in Anka Sage's view
, this kid clearly has a ferocious appearance and has bad intentions!
Sage Anka looked at the knight's sword, it was almost piercing his eyes, and he was hesitating whether to avoid it first. Looking at this boy's fierce appearance, Sage Anka felt that his old body was like a bone.
But he couldn't withstand a blow from the terrifying sword in his hand, which contained unknown power.
The magician's body is still very fragile.
However, his purest fire is very powerful, but because it is too powerful, with the strength of Anka Sage, there is no way to achieve instant casting and movement. If he gets out of the way now, this magic will be useless.
will disappear temporarily.
Although he originally had a high estimate of Link's strength, it was only now that Sage Anka truly put Link in a position of a rival. No wonder this boy dared to come.
What kind of challenger?
At the moment when Sage Anka was ready to temporarily move away to avoid the menacing sword, Link suddenly stopped his hand and slowly withdrew his knight's sword.
"Huh", Link used the unique breathing method of mentor Calvin, trying hard to regulate the almost dry strength in his body, maintaining the calm appearance on the surface without revealing any flaws, and feeling depressed in his heart.
It seems that purely based on strength, even this kind of sword energy can almost be said to have a restraining effect on magical power. However, Link's current ability is not as good as that of an old guy like Sage Anka who has lived for who knows how many years.
The accumulation of magical power.
Of course, Link didn't know that the Sage Ankh on the opposite side was still sweating in the blazing fire.
"Fortunately, this boy still has some thoughts of respecting the elderly and the virtuous." Of course, Sage Anka didn't know that Link, who was still standing so straight, was actually still shaking in his legs. He thought that this boy didn't want to hurt him in such a head-on collision.
Suddenly, I had a great impression of this boy Link. If he hadn't been acting as the guardian of the challenge this time, Sage Anka might have let him pass.
The ancestor who built the Mage Tower is a nobler being than all gods in the minds of all members of the Mage Tower. Of course, a place like the Challenge Road cannot be desecrated.
The flame was originally weakened by the consumption of Link's sword energy. As Sage Anka hesitated and did not continue to pour magical power into it, it gradually weakened slightly.
"Huh?!" Link couldn't see clearly the thinking expression of Sage Fireanka, but his sensitive sense told him that the seemingly unchanged fire in front of him was much denser than before.
The fire element has a tendency to become slightly weaker.
Link didn't know the reason for this, but he knew that this was a rare opportunity, so in the short time when Anka Sage was distracted, Link had already used part of the strength that had just recovered quickly to complete all the tasks.
The preparatory action activated the magic of space rules learned from the old Grand Master Skuva.
Without any sound, Link's entire figure suddenly disappeared from where he was.
Due to the habit of having to chant a long spell before launching high-level magic, most magicians on the mainland now like to call out the name of the magic loudly before launching large-scale spells. It seems that this
It is a very majestic thing. Even Link got into this habit after hearing many legendary stories about magicians when he first entered the Mage Tower.
However, in later practice, Link discovered that this was a very stupid thing to do. Even if it was a duel of honor between the most upright knights, it would be impossible for him to scream in his mouth first when the sword was about to kill you.
Right?! Since I figured this out, I basically don’t have to chant magic spells. When I activate magic, I always make a lot of money in a muffled voice. I even specially studied the technique of how to make less noise.
So when Link disappeared, the Anka sage sitting in the blazing fire had no reaction at all. He had not even noticed that Link had disappeared in front of his eyes, and he had not yet recovered from his thoughts.
Come to God.
"Ah", a shrill scream rang out.
With a "bang", Link's figure jumped back to where he was, his hands and feet flailing wildly on his body, his teeth cracking in pain.
He didn't know what was going on. It was obvious that the place where his space rules moved out should be behind Sage Anka's fire, and he could run upstairs in an instant, but for some reason, when he reappeared
, only to find that he was in that ball of fire.
That is the purest flame that can ignite almost anything. If it weren't for the reason of old Scuva in the past three years, Link has put the most effort into the fire magic among all magics, and he also understands it.
If it's the deepest, I'm afraid it will be cooked directly this time.
"Hahahahaha, space rules." Sage Anka didn't understand what happened until now. Suddenly, he didn't know what he thought of, and he laughed so hard that his whole body trembled, along with the ball of fire.
He had become a lot weaker and didn't care. He just kept laughing wildly: "The rules of space, it's actually the rules of space, hahahahaha!"
Link felt a little baffled for a moment, but even though he was watching the fire at its weakest, he didn't dare to try it again. The feeling just now was absolutely uncomfortable, that kind of
It felt like he was being scorched from the inside out by an inexplicable heat, which really made Link absolutely not dare to try it a second time now.
"Young man", Sage Anka finally finished laughing and greeted Link in a good mood: "Speaking of which, I also want to thank you!"
"Thank me?" Link spread his hands: "Why?! I don't seem to have the honor to serve you yet!"
"No, no", Sage Anka waved his hand: "You solved something that I have been wanting to know for I don't know how many years."
"I used to be a famous figure on the mainland," Sage Anka moved his white beard, thinking about the past, and said slowly: "However, since I had the opportunity to follow the old master Skuva
Since I began to practice, I have realized my own insularity!"
"Yes." Link nodded respectfully, but his eyes had already begun to wander, looking for a possible breakthrough.
Link didn't really like to listen to the old man reminiscing about the past, but it was better for Sage Anka to recall the past than to stare at him with all his attention. So although Link doesn't dare to look around too much now, he still looks around.
He was looking for every opportunity he could take advantage of.
"I have been working hard, but I still let down the old Grand Master Skuva." Unfortunately, Sage Anka turned his attention back to Link after just saying a word: "I have exhausted all my energy,
None of them can be recognized in the Temple of Mystery in the Mage Tower and have the power to master the rules, unlike a lucky boy like you!"
"Hehe", Link smiled at Anka Sage in a nonchalant manner, while his eyes continued to wander.
"But I'm not willing to admit defeat." A look of pride flashed across Sage Anta's face: "If I don't get the inheritance of the Palace of Mysteries, I won't be able to grasp the power of the rules, so I'll just try to crack this
Kind of a rule!”
Link's eyes no longer wandered, but turned back to Sage Anka.
The members of these mage towers are worthy of being the powerful men who once flourished on the continent. Although they seem to have been polished by endless years into a group of kind and kind old people, their proud personality, that kind of inability to
The mentality of giving in to anyone, but still retaining their former style.
Just like Sage Anka, although he has so much respect for the ancestors who built the Mage Tower and the old Great Master Skuva, it does not mean that he is willing to prostrate himself in their shadow, but that he must work hard to step out.
A path of your own.
"Ever since I researched this purest form of fire, I have been wondering if there is no way to travel through all spaces under such a fire element without a trace of other impurities. Unfortunately, it has always been
I didn't even have the chance to verify it until I met you." Sage Anka looked at Link with a smile: "So my old man wants to thank you, you finally confirmed that my old man's life has not been in vain all these years."
"Your life is not in vain, but I am miserable." Link vaguely felt that Sage Anka's words seemed to contain many secrets about the rules of space. However, he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only smile bitterly in his heart.
Depressed: "Even the rules of space don't work, how can we bump into it?!"
"So, many things are not so absolute. Sometimes, if you change the method, change the angle, and think the other way around, you may be able to find your own way!" Sage Anka did not notice Link's expression.
, and gave himself a summary with satisfaction.
"Change the method, change the angle." However, Link's eyes lit up at Sage Anka's seemingly unintentional words. He turned his head and glanced at the floor not far away: "Think about it the other way around..."
"Hey hey hey", Link's face showed his signature evil smile again, looked at Anka and said: "Sage Anka, did you say that this ball of fire of yours can really break the rules of space?
?!Do you want us to try it again?!"
"Well, yes!" Sage Anka nodded fiercely: "Try it, and you must try it again!"
Sage Anka is a disciple of old Skuva, so with his status, he certainly cannot compete with the old master Skuva, but looking at the world, except for the old master Skuva, he can
The only person who has mastered the power of space rules, even a little bit, is the kid in front of me. It's rare that this kid has the courage to try it again. Of course, Sage Anka is happy to accompany him and is extremely happy.
Having such a proud thing and no one to confirm and share it would be a very painful thing. Sage Anka has endured it for so many years, and now looking at Link is like looking at a treasure.
Link suddenly became energetic, slowly stretched his muscles, and pretended to dance his arms, posing for a long time, and then stretched out his hand and shouted to Sage Anka: "Space rules!
"
Sage Anka had been holding his breath for a long time, looking at Link's fingers nervously. With Link's loud shout, his heart that had been mentioned earlier was even more anxious, and his eyes were already wide open.
He opened it a little more, and then his eyes blurred, and Link disappeared before his eyes.
At the next moment, Sage Anka discovered that it was not Link who disappeared in front of his eyes, but himself who disappeared from the original place.
It turns out that the space rule this kid used this time was not cast on himself to test whether he could pass through the dense fire of pure fire elements. Instead, it was cast on Sage Anka to test him.
The space around the fire was also moved away.
"Bad boy!" Sage Anka looked at Link who had taken the opportunity to run up the ladder. His eyes were so anxious that his eyes were on fire. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he hurriedly rushed towards the role model, thinking of stopping him.
.
But just as he took a step, he found a sudden weakness under his feet. Then Sage Anka remembered that a big hole seemed to have been knocked out of the floor of the second floor when Link broke in just now.
"Bad boy!" Sage Anka only had time to let out a scream that was even more shrill than before. He didn't even have time to use the drift magic. He just fell through the big hole in the floor, and then there was a tragic crash.
ring.
"Think about it the other way around." Link was now slowly climbing the stairs, assuming the posture of a thinker: "What Sage Ankh said really makes sense!"
