Chapter 209 Five Seconds of Fighting
Freya choked at Roya's explanation, and then she said helplessly: "That's true, but this year's Elf Sword Dance Festival is a five-person team competition. If you gather your team one day later, you will develop team awareness and tacit understanding one day later, which is not good for you."
"Although the college competition does not require a team of five to participate, basically no one will fight without a full number of people. Did you see the team in front? They are the best example."
Roya followed his sight and looked at the place where Linslet pointed. There were five girls, but compared to others, these people always had interesting smiles on their faces.
And these girls always subconsciously focused their eyes on Claire, with an ambiguous expression in their eyes.
These eyes were obviously malicious.
Roya frowned, but didn't say anything.
Because of this obvious sight, Claire and Linslet talked less and less. In the end, the two lost interest in talking. Linslet followed Claire closely. The expressions of both of them were not very good.
Linslet seemed to want to break this slightly heavy atmosphere. After hearing the conversation between Linslet and Roya, a confident smile appeared on her face. Linslet pretended to be elegant and lifted her long golden hair by her ear.
Linslet showed a confident expression and said to Linslet arrogantly: "Ah, teacher, who do you think you are talking to? Even if we don't have a team of five, as long as I, Linslet, the Ice Demon, are here, we won't lose."
Ice Demon is Linslet's nickname, and Claire also has a nickname. Claire is called Fire Cat by everyone in the academy.
Probably because the contracted elf is a fire cat, but Roya thinks that the reason why Claire is called this is because Claire is so angry, just like a cat's personality.
After hearing Linslet's words, Freya cast her eyes on Linslet, who had a strong sense of confidence on her face, shrugged her shoulders, and said casually: "I have already said this. Anyway, I just remind you on the way. You are all very strong, not to mention that there are elves like Roya. The team promotion competition held in the academy can indeed be easily won, but the Sword Dance Festival is a feast for all elves, not limited to the academy."
Freya reminded her indirectly, and then she didn't speak again.
The Elf Forest is very wide. Under Freya's leadership, it took almost an hour to reach the destination.
Freya stopped and said to the people around: "We are here."
The group of people stopped and looked forward.
In front of the road, there is a vast square.
The square is very large, and the style looks a bit like the square used for promotion, similar to that of ancient Rome.
In the center of the square, there is a circular array made of huge stones.
This is a magic array, and it is also a teleportation array leading to the elf elemental world.
The teleportation array emits a faint light, and the soft light indicates that the magic array can work normally.
"Is that the gate to the elemental spirit world?" Luo Ya asked curiously.
————Elemental spirit world.
It is a different world completely different from the human world, inhabited by various elves.
At the same time, it is also the venue for the students in the academy to hold group competitions.
Because, in the elemental spirit world, the elf master can use the contracted elf as a pure divine energy.
In this case, the body inhabited by the divine energy is equivalent to the elf itself, and will hardly suffer any physical damage. It will only cause the same degree of mental damage.
The battle of the elf master is difficult to control, especially when the two teams are fighting, the intensity of the battle can be imagined.
The advantage of doing this is that even if you lose, you will not have an arm blown off or a leg broken. Everyone will be depressed at most, and they can continue to jump around after a few days of rest.
Therefore, in order to prevent students from causing irreparable damage during the competition, any battle that will cause physical damage will be carried out in the elemental spirit world.
"Come here, all of you." At Freya's urging, Roya and his party came to the circular magic circle.
This giant stone circle is the teleportation array that opens the door to the elemental elf world.
"Are you all ready?" Freya looked around at everyone around her and nodded.
"Then we'll set off."
After saying that, Freya closed her eyes and began to chant a passage in the Elven language.
The chanting time was not long, just a short minute, and the ceremony was completed.
The light of the magic circle became brighter and brighter, and finally formed a light that enveloped everyone. Roya only felt a strong white light covering his vision, a wonderful feeling like floating in the water.
Compared with the system's teleportation, this teleportation array is simply too good.
When Roya opened his eyes again, he saw a completely different scene.
Although the scene changed greatly, the surrounding environment was still a forest with trees as the structure.
But compared to the Elf Forest, the trees here are much larger.
There were glowing elves floating in the air, and there were many more of these elves than in the Elf Forest.
The moment Roya appeared, these elves swarmed towards where Roya was as if they had discovered some rare treasure.
Fireflies surrounded Roya, and the weak fluorescence swayed with Roya's movements.
Elf users would attract the attention of these elves to a certain extent, but Roya's exaggerated behavior would inevitably attract others' attention. ,
Roya raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't want to see such attention.
Roya passed his thoughts to these low-level elves, trying to drive them away.
The effect was not very good. Low-level elves did not have obvious thoughts. They just acted according to their feelings.
They felt safe with Roya, so they wanted to stay for a while, that's all.
Roya frowned, and the burning divine power flowed out, driving these little guys away.
The elves looked at Roya reluctantly, looking back every three steps, and finally there was no fluorescence sticking to Roya.
Roya's actions naturally attracted the attention of Claire and Linslet. Claire and Linslet didn't say anything. After all, Claire had seen such a scene before and didn't feel much surprise.
Although Linslet was curious, it was not the time to chat about these things.
Linslet suppressed her doubts. A white light flashed and Freya appeared. She stood between the two teams and began to announce the rules.
"The game will start in half an hour. Before that, all the members of your two teams will move in the opposite direction of each other for ten minutes. You can move freely in the rest of the time. The game can only start after half an hour. Do you understand?"
The team competition does not only refer to the melee between the two sides.
No one knows what form the team competition will take, after all, the official content of the Elf Sword Dance Festival has not been announced.
Therefore, the academy will hold all possible competitions once.
And now, it is a team competition that imitates being randomly teleported to different places and requires a long-term confrontation.
As Freya's words fell, the two teams walked towards the distance of the forest.
After waiting for ten minutes, the battle had already begun.
Three minutes later, Roya found the target, squatted on the treetop secretly, looked at the girls passing below, and smiled.
The two people beside him looked at Roya's bright smile and couldn't help shuddering.
Looking at the five people below who were very vigilant.
The girls were very alert. A girl holding a spear stood in front, the remaining three stood in the middle, and the remaining one was on guard behind them.
The map was very large. In fact, they should not be found at this time. If it was an ordinary team, they would be the most relaxed at this time.
After all, no one could have thought that someone would ambush them in front of them before five minutes had passed.
But even so, they were still vigilant and maintained a good basic formation. It can be seen that the opponent's quality is quite good.
But unfortunately, they met Luo Ya.
"I caught you."
Luo Ya's figure jumped down from the treetops and grabbed the girl at the end. Without giving the other party any chance to react, he simply knocked her to the ground.
The girl at the end screamed in pain, and an irresistible force came, almost instantly subduing her.
Everything happened in a flash, and no one reacted.
The teammates around him reacted and wanted to support.
But at this time, Roya began to radiate terrifying divine power. The blazing divine power suddenly erupted with Roya as the center, and the scorching heat wave swept the surroundings recklessly.
The simple explosion of divine power did not directly cause direct injuries to the girls, but these girls lost their original composure due to this explosion.
If there was an entry, these girls would definitely have a buff called [Shock] on their heads.
Roya did not hesitate at all, and punched a little kid.
So in less than five seconds, all five girls lay on the ground in a mess, making a confused groan of pain.
The battle was easy, which was also within Roya's expectations.
After all, in the entire academy, there were really few people who could fight Roya, except for that old immortal guy.
Not to mention the opponent, even Claire and Linslet had not fully reacted.
Looking at Roya who had taken away the divine power, Claire and Linslet looked at each other, their eyes full of shock.
"So strong, he's so strong..." Claire couldn't help but murmur.
"Is this guy a monster?" Linslet murmured.
Although these five people are not very strong, they are definitely not weak.
All five of them are elves who can use the elf magic suit, but not everyone can use the elf magic suit. In the entire Elf Academy of Alessia, there are probably less than half of the elves who can use the elf magic suit.
But even so, when facing Roya, he couldn't even use the elf magic suit and was killed instantly.
And more importantly, Roya didn't summon the legendary demon-killing holy sword at all.
In other words, Roya completely relied on his own strength to crush the five people directly.
After the shock, Linslet patted Claire's shoulder excitedly and said to Claire: "Could it be that we have joined a team of very extraordinary people?"
Claire recovered from the shock, coughed dryly, folded her arms arrogantly, and said to Linslet: "What else can I say? Don't forget who invited you to this team, thank me well."
Luo Ya rolled his eyes at Claire, a little speechless.
It's not like you're that good, why are you so proud?
Claire didn't notice Roya's little move, and was still talking to Linslet.
"If this is the case, we should be able to win the Sword Dance Festival, right?" Linslet rarely ignored Claire's words and cast a questioning gaze at Claire.
Claire recalled the boy's extremely brilliant sword dance, and her eyes flickered.
Claire said: "Roya's sword dance can be compared with Lian Ashbel. I think it would be very easy to win the sword dance."
After saying that, Claire and Linslet's breathing became rapid.
Claire is a slow person, and she only realized what this meant at this time.
Both Claire and Linslet have reasons to win the Elf Sword Dance Festival.
And with Roya here, the so-called victory is no longer so far away, how can they not be excited.
At the same time, Freya, wearing a white coat, walked out from the depths of the forest, glanced at the students lying on the ground, and then raised her head and looked at Roya.
Freya said to Roya with some emotion: "Your strength seems to be much stronger than I thought."
It was so easy to defeat five elves who could use the elf magic armor. If Roya used the Demon Slayer Holy Sword, his strength could be further improved.
Claire and Linslet nodded in agreement.
Claire said: "I feel like I didn't do anything and ended the battle."
And in fact, it was true.
Freya glanced at the three people and said in a cold tone: "Although you won, you didn't achieve the real purpose this time."
Claire and Linslet were stunned when they heard it, and Freya continued: "Like this; Ronoa completely crushed the battle alone, it is impossible to cultivate team awareness and team tacit understanding."
Claire and Linslet fell into silence.
Roya wanted to say that he could win the Elf Sword Dance Festival alone.
As if she knew what Roya wanted to say, Freya glared at him and blocked his words: "I know you are very strong, but one person's strength is limited. You need to hone your tacit understanding. You can't win the Elf Sword Dance Festival by yourself."
