After listening to Priest Carter's explanation along the way, Lawrence finally figured out what this reward was. In short, this is a rare opportunity for extraordinary people where danger and opportunity coexist.
The reason why the priestess of the Agricultural Church just asked Lawrence to cast spells on the wooden stakes she conjured was to determine Lawrence's specific level, so as to determine whether he was suitable to participate in such a competition, and if so, which level he should participate in.
Contest.
As for the so-called black iron level, it is a traditional level division method. In addition to the holy realm and demigod level at the top of human beings, the previous eight levels were merged into one level every two levels from low to high in ancient times. They are as follows
Black iron, bronze, silver and gold.
Today, this division method is no longer widely used because it is too rough. However, organizations with some history will use this division method in various formal occasions to show their identity. Naturally, those who are latecomers also
You will quickly learn this thing to pretend that you have an identity.
"Okay, don't worry about this now." Seeing Lawrence lost in thought, Priest Carter patted Lawrence on the shoulder with his palm like a bear's paw. "This competition is still more than half a month away.
, there is no need to make yourself so nervous now, you should have a happy and relaxing day today."
"Yes, you are right." At this time, the two people had walked back to the hall. Lawrence first saw Saphire standing at the long table with food, waving to him, and said to her
Showed a smile.
"Oh, you young people should relax together at this time. I won't disturb you." At this time, Priest Carter also noticed the energetic Saphire, so he patted Lawrence on the shoulder again.
Then left.
After saying goodbye to Priest Carter, Lawrence walked to Saifei's side. At this time, Saifei had continued to eat at the table. Her appetite was a bit larger than that of an average adult male, and the plate in front of her was naturally piled high.
With plenty of food.
Fortunately, there are many extraordinary people who attend this kind of buffet party, and the scholars are also relatively innocent in character. As a result, Saphiel is not the only one who comes to the table to eat. The surrounding service staff are also not surprised.
Not only did she not show any surprise, but she thoughtfully helped to refill the empty plates.
"I tell you, these chefs make really good barbecue. The desserts are also delicious." When Lawrence came to Saifei, he heard her saying to him, "By the way, just now, Priest Carter
What are you being asked to do?"
"It's nothing, it's just announcing something, and of course that's something good for me." Lawrence said as he remembered, taking out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiping off a small piece of cream on the corner of Saphire's mouth.
"Oh, I've grown." Although he said this, Sephiel still opened his little face to match Lawrence's movements as he did when he was a child, with an expression on his face like a kitten's chin being scratched.
After enjoying a high-quality meal, Lawrence and the others returned to the hotel to pick up their luggage and then took the 11:00 noon train back to Eagle Castle.
This trip to the federal capital was a fruitful one for Lawrence, especially since he was going to participate in the competition among the New World countries. The Federal Science Association directly gave him an extra year's annuity and gave him this year's pension in advance.
The annuity made his pockets more bulging than ever before.
Of course, the main reason why the association does this is that the annuities for members are borne by the federal government. So it is naturally very pleasant to distribute money with federal permission. I just went to the finance department after the buffet to simply notify
In one fell swoop, the two piles of green ten-yuan notes were quickly handed to Lawrence.
Early the next morning after returning to Eagle Castle, Lawrence got up early and went straight to St. Gutenberg's Cathedral. After briefly explaining his purpose, Lawrence was taken to the office of Archpriest Arthur.
"The competition between the countries in the New World is a good opportunity." It is obvious that High Priest Arthur has a lot of experience in this kind of competition, "Many people in our church have participated in that competition, and as long as they come out alive, they have gained something.
Lots of benefits.”
At this point, he looked at Lawrence, and after realizing that he was not scared by these words, he nodded with satisfaction and continued. "Of course, generally only the most advanced silver-level competitions have a higher mortality rate. As for
At the black iron level, usually not one person among a hundred contestants will die."
In the following time, High Priest Arthur taught Lawrence some experience in participating in this kind of competition. Only then did Lawrence know that High Priest Arthur had also participated in this type of competition when he was young, and also came from that astral plane.
There are many benefits gained from it.
"In short, this is a good opportunity where opportunities far outweigh challenges under normal circumstances." At the end of the sentence, High Priest Arthur sighed as if he was recalling his lost youth, and then he raised his head and looked into Lawrence's eyes and reminded, "
But you still have to be vigilant at all times to ensure that you don’t regret it for the rest of your life because of some small mistakes.”
After sharing his experience, Lawrence began to ask about the selection of the official magic item. After tapping the table with his index finger and thinking for a while, High Priest Arthur sat up straight. "I'm just talking about my personal experience, you can do it
Just refer to it.”
"Because what you are about to participate in is a competition rather than a thorough actual combat. According to the rules, everyone can only carry one magic item that is one level higher than themselves, so you must be careful when choosing this item."
"The choice of magic props tends to make up for its own shortcomings, and these shortcomings must be difficult to make up for with other things. For example, if your current extraordinary level lacks attack power, you can rely on firearms to make up for it. There is no need to waste such a precious
opportunity."
After saying goodbye to Archpriest Arthur, Lawrence went straight to the logistics department. Ten minutes later, he walked out of the cathedral's logistics department with a speechless face. He was holding a women's gold bracelet inlaid with an onyx relief horse.
The words of High Priest Arthur just now pointed the way for Lawrence. He found that he did not lack detection magic and protective magic. At the same time, good marksmanship could also make up for the lack of attack methods. After carefully analyzing his strengths and weaknesses, he focused his search on
Put it on a prop that increases your mobility.
As one of the largest churches of the Church of Knowledge in the New World, the logistics department here naturally prepared a large number of medium and low-grade magic props that almost made Lawrence dazzled.
Especially the fireball ring. If he hadn't analyzed it carefully before, he would definitely choose this thing. After all, fireball is the romance of spellcasters.
But in the end, Lawrence chose the Phantom Pony Bracelet, which can be used up to three times a day for a total of three hours, because this magic prop can just make up for his current lack of mobility. More importantly, the astral plane in the subsequent competition
It is at least as big as a federal state. If you just walk by foot, you will probably miss a lot of good things.
As for the style issue, there's nothing we can do about it. There's only one such thing in the logistics department. If you're unlucky enough to find a women's one, there's nothing you can do about it. But anyway, it looks better than that dog collar with an elemental shield attached.
This is also a common problem with magic props. Unless they are customized by yourself, most magic props have various problems with inappropriate styles. This is especially true for some ancestral props or second-hand props.
It is an excellent tradition for extraordinary people to use these magic props whose styles do not suit them. After all, even if the style does not suit them, the effect is real. In the eyes of extraordinary people who prioritize power, this is not a big deal.
