Chapter 337 Talent
As a major event held every three years, the Pamir College Competition was particularly lively.
This year's competition venue was located in the unprecedented meteorite ruins, attracting far more attention from the ninth-level masters than in previous years, which added to the symbolism and commemorative significance of this competition.
Many freshmen used their best cards, and in the competition, they made a series of surprise moves. From time to time, a team that seemed strong was overturned by the opponent's unexpected cards due to carelessness.
The preliminary round took a total of seven days, and hundreds of teams were finally selected into the rematch five days later.
The remaining teams entered the resurrection match, and the top ten percent of the teams in terms of points advanced.
After seven days, the logistics team members in charge of manufacturing equipment in many teams have initially refined magic equipment with a relatively simple structure, and the intensity of the resurrection match is much more intense than the preliminary round.
Five days later, with the end of the resurrection match, the rematch of the competition officially began.
Compared with the preliminary and resurrection matches, the rematch is much more enjoyable to watch because the remaining teams are the most elite.
Various temporary artifacts, magic props, simple magic armor, etc., add more uncertainties to the battle.
Moreover, among the many teams in the battle, the use of special tactics has become more common.
Some teams concentrate all magic equipment and disposable artifacts, equip the strongest, and then rely on overwhelming strength to fight quickly.
There are also teams that plan to arrange weaker combat players to wear protective magic equipment before going to battle, and bring multiple large-scale high-damage magic scrolls.
Using the rule that there is a ninth-level strongman to protect the students in the battle, there will be no real life-threatening situation, and launch a self-destructive attack against the enemy's strongman.
Under this exchange tactic, even if the opponent can survive, it will waste the trump card or consume a lot of magic power.
Then, when the strong man of the full state of the team goes on stage, he will be defeated by the opponent who is seriously exhausted.
Those who had been the focus of Anvis before, such as Albins and Alyssa, all had very impressive performances in the competition.
Three days later, at six o'clock in the evening.
The semi-finals were completely over, and the forty teams with the highest team points entered the quarter-finals.
After a day of fighting, many students returned to the college airship hovering low on one side of the ruins.
The restaurant on the ship had already prepared a large amount of delicacies for the many students who had experienced the battle to enjoy a sumptuous dinner.
At the same time, many students in charge of logistics should also take advantage of this time to try to repair the equipment damaged during the daytime battle, refine stronger new equipment, and manufacture consumables such as magic scrolls and alchemical potions.
After dinner, Anvis, who had watched the competition for half a month, leisurely left the airship and strolled in the ruins at will.
So far, it is not a good time to explore the ruins.
The Web of Destiny fell into a brief silence, and many ninth-level people also did not move. It was basically useless for him to explore alone.
At this time, the sky has entered dusk. Since it is just March, the sun sets very early.
The clear sky is a beautiful deep blue. Among the sparse silver-white cold stars, huge silver-purple double moons hang high in the sky.
The hazy two-color moonlight falls, covering the dilapidated ancient ruins with a veil.
At the end of his walking direction, there is a white clock tower on the side of the city ruins.
It is the tallest building in this half of the ruins. Since the fallen ruins themselves are not horizontal, the clock tower is also slightly tilted.
Without using magic, Anvis climbed up the steps like an ordinary person and walked slowly to the top of the clock tower.
Along the way, there are some small arched windows on the heavy rock outer wall with traces of weathering.
Through these windows, you can see different areas of the city.
There is a small terrace on the top of the clock tower. Standing on it and looking out, you can have a panoramic view of the terrain of this half of the ruins.
Perhaps thousands of years ago, the high elves living here also enjoyed the scenery of the city here.
However, when he was about to reach the top terrace, some vague conversations gradually reached Avis's ears.
It seemed that there were other people who had the same idea as Avis.
"... Duran from the team is good. He can challenge the third level and win with the strength of the peak of the second level. He is a very promising seed. Even if he signs a contract with the academy, he only needs to wait for a hundred years."
"I think that the knight named Alyssa in the team currently ranked twelfth in points has great potential. After she graduates, we should try to win her over..."
Walking out of the narrow stone staircase slowly, Avis immediately saw three young men and women.
They were also wearing Pamir uniforms, and he was very familiar with these three people.
The seventh daughter of the current patriarch of Enoch, Xilin Enoch; the seventh son of the patriarch of the Aslaide family, Colen Aslaide; and the ninth son of the Alfred family, Rasul Alfred.
At this time, the three seemed to be discussing the various bright talents that appeared in the previous competition.
"Don't you care about the people in charge of logistics?"
At this time, the only girl among the three raised a question.
"I feel that the boy named Albins in the ninth team is good. The various special magic tools he made are very valuable.
There is also the eleventh-ranked team, the girl named Emily. The lights she made that make people fall into the dream world unconsciously are also very useful. "
At this time, hearing Xilin's doubts, Rasul couldn't help but shrugged.
"You don't seem to be well-informed. Albins is indeed very valuable, but unfortunately, he has been obtained by someone first and signed a high-level contract. "
"Really? By whom?"
The black-haired and silver-eyed girl was slightly stunned and asked unwillingly.
"...Of course it's me."
At this time, Avis's voice came from the stairs.
The three of them turned around and looked at the fourth guest who came here tonight.
"Wow! Mr. Avis, you are here too! What a coincidence tonight-"
Seeing his arrival, Rasul greeted him with a little surprise, and the other two also nodded to him.
"And Emily also has a guest contract with me. At present, I am responsible for reimbursing her research funds in full. "
Nodding politely to the three of them, Avis turned to Xilin, but what he said made her raise her eyebrows.
"You're really quick."
Xilin muttered to Avis with a bit of reluctance.
"Forget it, Xilin, there are endless talents, especially when we are in the Royal Pamir Academy."
Glancing at her, Rasul finally ended the topic.
