Oliver can be regarded as a "soldier" who has experienced several life-and-death dangers. At the critical moment, he was not frightened to the point where his hands and legs were numb, and he had no ability to resist. He subconsciously dodged to the side, brandishing his dagger at the same time, and tried to escape.
However, his strength was far inferior to that of the captain Grigra. Grigra effectively used the length of the long sword and carried out a series of slashes, making it impossible for him to get close and unable to take advantage of the short sword. He could only passively attack.
He raised his sword and resisted.
After a few crisp sounds, the dagger fell to the ground with a clang. The jaw of Oliver's right hand split open and blood oozed out.
Grigra smiled ferociously, stepped forward, and slashed across with his long sword, gradually reducing the range of Oliver's dodge.
In just a few moments, Oliver found himself forced into a corner. No matter whether he moved left, right or forward, he had to face the shining sword.
Are you going to die?
When the long sword fell, Oliver's scalp felt numb, and something seemed to burst out of his body, irritating his eyes with blood red. He unconsciously clenched the only thing in his hand with both hands and faced the long sword.
Snap, there was a muffled sound, and Oliver took a step back again, leaning against the cold wall. More blood spilled from the tiger's mouth on his right hand, dyeing the crystal blue staff with a touch of blood.
"Huh!" Grigra didn't take it seriously. Oliver couldn't beat him with a short sword, let alone a nondescript short staff.
The only thing that made him a little shaken was that this short, crystal-clear staff seemed to be quite precious. If it was broken, he would definitely feel heartbroken.
However, he then thought about the room full of gems and possible magic items, and his wavering quickly disappeared. Anyway, there were so many valuable things, so just lose this short staff. You must hurry up and kill Oliver and find the mechanism.
The entrance is closed to prevent others from snatching the treasure from you!
As soon as he made the decision in his heart, he already moved his long sword, his rough movements became delicate, and he opened the short stick and stabbed Oliver directly in the chest.
Looking at the shining sword tip, Oliver burst out in fear. He felt that the whole world had become extremely slow, and the sword tip stabbed towards his chest like a snail, but he could only think so fast. His body was in contact with Grigra's long body.
The sword was also "slow". I could only watch helplessly as the sword stabbed towards me little by little. I couldn't react at all.
Are you going to die?
I don't want to die!
For a short moment, Oliver fell into a strange ethereal state, and then it was as if a string was broken in his mind. There was a popping sound, and then he felt something in his soul rushing out, flowing to
He held the short blue staff tightly in both hands.
Click, there was a strange "shattering sound" on the short staff, and Oliver felt that he had opened a door, and his whole body was surrounded by a sea of tiny silver-white electric lights.
Bang bang bang!
Silver-white arcs of electricity emerged from the short staff, hitting several vital points of Grigra's body without any hindrance.
Grigra's face and chest were quickly blackened, and the sword stabbed Oliver's body but could only slide away, only causing a shallow wound.
How could I die... He stared blankly at the short staff in front of him with electric sparks coming out, and his body fell to the ground softly.
He had long confirmed that Oliver was not a magic apprentice. Even if the short staff was an extraordinary item, he would certainly not be able to use it!
But how could this happen? Grigla's eyes widened and he refused to close his eyes.
Oliver held a short staff in both hands, his back was as arched as a shrimp, he was breathing heavily, his head was throbbing in pain, and he wanted to hit the wall to death.
After a while, he calmed down and slowly raised his head. There were faint traces of blood on the corners of his eyes, nostrils, and mouth.
"Is it my breakthrough in meditation and the mental impact when I became an apprentice that inspired the short staff?" He thought in a daze, "But shouldn't the short staff have a core imprint? Could it have been erased long ago..."
He shook his head and looked at Grigra with both hands holding the short staff tightly. He saw that the powerful captain who usually frightened him was lying here lifelessly, his face was black, his eyes were wide open, and he could not die anymore.
.
Oliver was not at ease, so he squatted down and carefully inspected Grigra's body. After confirming that it was correct, he looked at the short staff in shock, confusion, joy and shock:
"Is this the power of magic?"
After that, he quickly calmed down, closed the entrance, found another secret exit, then packed the books, items and gems into the storage bag left by the mage, and left here.
It's not that he doesn't want to settle here temporarily and improve his strength first, but it's because there is no food here. In a few days, he will starve to death here, and more than 90% of the creatures in the wasteland are better than
They are strong, but they prefer to kill each other.
…………
Two days later, Fernando came to this wasteland, intending to find the "Dance of Confusion" organization that had retreated here. As far as he knew, although "Cursed Eye" Atlante could not hide during this period, he was not willing to do so.
, integrating many small organizations to make up for the losses of "Dance of Confusion" in the last incident.
Otherwise, he would not have received any news and would not have been able to come here.
Of course, he didn't know the specific location of the "Dance of Confusion". He could only be taken in if he got nearby and passed the test of the magician who was secretly watching.
"Hey, there are traces of the magic mechanism being opened here." The recent craziness of the night watchman made Fernando choose to move forward cautiously and not dare to fly boldly. Therefore, within the range of his mental induction, he suddenly discovered a relatively obvious trace.
It seems that there are no traces of effective handling when the rookie left.
"Is there any magician's relic hidden here?" Fernando's mood suddenly improved. It was not that he was greedy for money, but that the "United Continental Magician Council" that not many people knew about at the time of its creation really lacked foundation. Not only did it lack materials, but also
Lack of money - During the Cooks Incident, the most severely damaged was the Magician United Union. The two surviving vice-presidents divided up the organization's legacy and currently have no idea where they are hiding, leaving it to Douglas and Fernando.
The only thing left is the ruined "City in the Sky" Arlinge. If Hathaway hadn't sponsored a large sum of money, Fernando's exchanges with other organizations would have been so shabby.
So he stopped moving forward, cast spells, created "secret eyes" and other things, carefully inspected the surroundings, and only after confirming that it was safe, began his efforts to crack the magic mechanism.
After about half an hour, there was a click, and a gate collapsed on the hillock.
After checking it, Fernando flew in quickly and found that most of the gems, materials and items were gone, leaving only a few peripheral things.
"Hey, it's a little late. If we meet that rookie from before, we can definitely trick him into, uh, introduce him to the parliament." Fernando sighed rather sadly.
He was taken away from the magic book and the remaining traces of the battle. He initially judged through prophecy spells that the person who took the treasure was an apprentice-level rookie.
…………
Grass and trees grow in the valley. It is shrouded in a light, ever-changing mist.
Erica held the thick book with a black cover, reading the contents fascinatedly, and calculating something from time to time.
"It turns out we are on a planet..."
"Is gravity the essence of the earth's force?"
"Is the earth element the source of gravity?"
"The planet actually moves like that..."
"No wonder we fall to the ground after jumping..."
Small sighs and discussions echoed around Erica. Magicians were discussing "Mathematical Principles of Magical Philosophy" either excitedly or frowning thoughtfully.
This book subverts their understanding of the world and gives them a sense of disillusionment and disillusionment with what the world is like.
If this were not groundbreaking content without precedent, many of them would have realized that the world was shaken, collapsed, or solidified. Even so, they also felt that their three views had been refreshed.
This world is actually like this?
This world is actually like this!
Looking up at the stars shining through the fog, they seemed to see the mysterious star trajectories. Everything was no longer so irregular, but "under control"!
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】
Erica read for a while, put the book down, rubbed her head, and looked exhausted. It was too painful to read this book, especially when reading this book with insufficient knowledge!
She had been taught calculus by Douglas, but at that time it was only a basic foundation, and many of them were still hazy, so it was extremely difficult to learn "Mathematical Principles of Magical Philosophy". She wanted to write to Douglas for advice, but found that she could not be contacted for the time being.
It's his turn.
Seeing Erica start to rub her head, the magicians around her ran over as fast as cunning rabbits, their eyes focused on her face, and they begged for approval:
"Erica, it's time to teach us calculus!"
"What should I do with this point?"
"Spell model is treated like this with calculus?"
Questions were flying around Erica's ears like flies, making her brain more confused and her mood more irritable.
But looking at the eager expressions of all the men, women and children, her heart softened again. Yes, she had a foundation in calculus and could learn by herself while watching, but they didn't understand anything and could only barely look at gravity.
Related descriptions.
At the same time, she felt a strong sense of pride. There were many high-level magicians here, and many mid-level magicians who usually appeared to be stronger than herself, but they all had to ask her for advice. Even His Excellency Atlante was asking her not long ago.
Ask yourself about calculus. Calculus is indeed an epoch-making advancement in the field of mathematics and physics!
Erica glanced around at everyone's expressions, and suddenly felt an uncontrollable joy in her heart. After the fall of Alto, her companions were all numb and desperate, like undead creatures, but this book "Mathematical Principles of Magical Philosophy"
Books are like beacons in the dark night, illuminating the darkness, dispelling despair, and filling them all with a little hope. It’s not that the magic is not strong enough, it’s just that we haven’t done enough before! Our understanding of the world is still lacking.
Too far!
As long as hope never dies, the inheritance of magic will never end!
The corners of Erica's lips curled up quietly, and she began to worry about happiness, explaining calculus to her companions.
At this time, a magician flew in and asked the archmage who was mixed in the crowd asking for advice: "Mr. Vice President, there is a high-level magician named Fernando who is asking for an audience in a remote mountain hut. He has passed the inspection. Will he be allowed in?
?”
Before the vice president could answer, Erica stood up suddenly: "Mr. Fernando? He is very good at calculus!"
This is what Mr. Douglas said!
——Most magicians still don’t know that Douglas has been promoted to legend.
"What? Very good at calculus?" Before he finished speaking, all the magicians in the valley disappeared and rushed out, leaving only the mage who reported the message looking at Erica blankly. (To be completed.
