Chapter 910 rubs shoulders
Oliver can be regarded as a "warrior" who has experienced several life-and-death dangers, and at the critical moment, he was not frightened to the point of weakness and numbness, and had no ability to resist, so he subconsciously dodged to the side, while wielding a dagger, trying to escape.
However, his strength was much worse than that of the captain Grigera, and Grigra effectively used the length of the long sword and carried out a series of slashes, making him unable to get close and give full play to the advantages of the short sword, so he could only passively raise his sword to resist.
After a few crisp sounds, the dagger fell to the ground with a clang, and Oliver's right hand cracked open, and blood oozed out.
Grigra smiled fiercely, strode forward, slashed with his long sword, and narrowed the range of Oliver's dodge step by step.
In just a few strokes, Oliver found himself cornered, whether left or right, he had to face the shining long sword.
Are you going to die?
The long sword fell, Oliver's scalp was numb, and something seemed to burst out in his body, which stimulated his eyes to turn blood-red, and he unconsciously clutched the only thing in his hand with both hands, facing the long sword.
Snap, a muffled sound came, Oliver took a step back again, clinging to the cold wall, the blood from the tiger's mouth in his right hand overflowed more, dyeing the crystal blue staff a touch of blood.
"Hmph!" Grigra didn't take it seriously, when he had a short sword, Oliver couldn't beat himself, and now he was holding a nondescript short staff, let alone thinking about it.
The only thing that made him a little shaken was that this crystal clear short staff seemed to be quite precious, and if it was cut down, he would definitely be heartbroken.
However, he thought of the room full of gems and possible magic items, shaking and quickly disappearing, anyway, there are still so many valuable things, this short staff is lost, you must hurry up to kill Oliver, find a mechanism to close the entrance, and prevent others from snatching the treasure with yourself!
As soon as he made his decision, his long sword was already in one shot, and his rough movements became meticulous, and he picked up the short staff and stabbed Oliver in the chest.
Looking at the bright tip of the sword, Oliver burst into fear, only to feel that the whole world had become extremely slow, and the tip of the sword stabbed towards his chest like a snail, but he could only think so fast, his body was as "slow" as Grigora's long sword, and he could only watch the long sword stabbing towards him little by little, unable to react at all.
Are you going to die?
I don't want to die!
In a short moment, Oliver fell into a strange ethereal state, and then his mind made a snapping sound as if a string had broken, and then he felt something in his soul rush out, flowing towards the azure staff he was clasped in his hands.
With a click, there was a strange "cracking sound" on the short staff, and Oliver only felt that he had broken open a door, and his whole body was surrounded by a sea of tiny silver and white lightning.
Snap!
Silver-white arcs appeared above the short staff, hitting several key points of Grigra without hindrance.
Grigella's face and chest were quickly charred, and the long sword stabbed Oliver's body but could only slide weakly, only creating a shallow wound.
How could I die...... He looked at the short staff in front of him in astonishment and blankly, and fell to the ground limply.
He had already confirmed that Oliver was not a magic apprentice, and even if the staff was an extraordinary item, he would definitely not be able to use it!
But how could this happen? Grigella's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't close his eyes.
Oliver held a short staff in both hands, his waist arched like a shrimp, panting heavily, his head was throbbing, and he wanted to crash into the wall.
After a while, he calmed down and slowly raised his head, with faint blood stains on the corners of his eyes, nostrils, and mouth.
"Was it my meditation breakthrough, and the mental impact when I became an apprentice inspired the short staff?" His head was a little confused, "But shouldn't the short stick have a core mark? Has it been erased long ago......"
He shook his head, clenched his cane in both hands and looked at Grigella, only to see the powerful captain who usually frightened him was lying here lifelessly, his face dark, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't die anymore.
Oliver was not at ease, so he squatted down and carefully examined Grigella's body, and after confirming that it was correct, he looked at the staff in shock, confusion and joy:
"This is the power of magic?"
After that, he quickly calmed down, closed the entrance, found another secret exit, and left the place with books, items, and gems organized in the storage bag left by the mage.
It's not that he doesn't want to settle here temporarily and improve his strength first, it's really because there is no food here, or in a few days, he will have to starve to death here, and the creatures on the wasteland are more than ninety percent stronger than him, but they prefer to kill each other.
…………
Two days later, Fernando came to this wasteland, intending to look for the "Dance of Confusion" organization that had retreated here, as far as he knew, although the "Eye of the Curse" Atlante could not hide during this time, he was not reconciled, and integrated many small organizations to make up for the loss of the "Dance of Confusion" in the last incident.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been able to get news at all, and he wouldn't be able to come here.
Of course, he didn't know the specific location of the "Dance of Confusion", and only when he was nearby and passed the test of the magician who was secretly monitoring him could he be taken in.
"Hey, there are traces of the magic mechanism being opened here." The recent madness of the night watchman made Fernando choose to move forward carefully and not dare to fly boldly, so within the range of mental power induction, he suddenly discovered a more obvious trace, which was a trace of the rookie leaving without effective treatment.
"Could it be that there are the remains of a magician hidden here?" Fernando's mood suddenly improved, not because he was greedy for money, but because the "Continental Magicians United Council", which was not yet known to many people, really lacked foundation, not only lack of materials, but also lack of money - at the beginning of the Cooks Change, the most severely damaged was the Magicians United Union, the two vice presidents who were not dead divided the inheritance of the organization, and they don't know where they are hiding at present, leaving only the "City in the Sky" Alinge in ruins to Douglas and Fernando, if it weren't for Hathaway's sponsorship of a large sum of money, Fernando's communication with other organizations this time I don't know how shabby it will be.
So he paused his way forward, cast spells, and created things such as the "secret eye".
After about half an hour, with a click, a gate collapsed on the hill.
After Fernando checked it once, he flew in like a frenzy, only to find that most of the gems, materials and items were gone, leaving only a few corners.
"Hey, it's a little late, if you meet the rookie before, you can completely deceive him, uh, introduce him to the council." Fernando sighed quite poorly.
From the magic books taken away and the remaining traces of battle, he preliminarily judged through prophetic spells that it was an apprentice-level rookie who took the treasure.
…………
The grass and trees grow in the valley, shrouded in a faint, ever-changing fog.
Erica held the thick book with a black cover, reading the contents fascinatingly, and calculating something from time to time.
"So we are on a planet......"
"Gravity is the essence of the earth's force?"
"Is the earth element the source of gravity?"
"That's how the planet works......"
"No wonder we jumped up and landed on ......."
Thin exclamations and discussions echoed around Erica, and one by one, the magicians were either excited or frowning and thinking about "The Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy".
This book subverted their understanding of the world and gave them a sense of disillusionment and awakening that the world was like this.
If it weren't for this groundbreaking content without precedent, many of them would definitely perceive that the world would be shaken, collapsed, or frozen, and even so, they would have a feeling that their three views had been refreshed.
This world is actually like this?
This world is like this!
Looking up at the stars revealing in the fog, they seemed to see the mysterious and mysterious star trajectory, everything was no longer so irregular, but "all under control"!
Erica looked at it for a while, put down the book, rubbed her head, looking exhausted, it was too painful to read this book, especially with insufficient knowledge!
She had been taught calculus by Douglas, but at that time she only laid a foundation, and many of them were still vague, so it was extremely difficult to learn "Mathematical Principles of the Philosophy of Magic".
Seeing that Erica began to rub her head, the surrounding magicians rushed over one by one, their eyes condensed on her face, and they begged for permission:
"Erica, it's time to teach us calculus!"
"What should I do with this point?"
"Spell models are treated like calculus?"
Each question was like flying flies surrounding Erica's ears, making her brain more and more confused and her mood even more irritable.
But looking at the eager expressions of men, women, old and young, her heart softened again, yes, she finally has a foundation in calculus and can study on her own while reading, but they don't understand anything, they can only barely read the description related to gravity.
At the same time, she felt a strong sense of pride, there were many high-level magicians, and there were many middle-level mages who usually seemed to be stronger than herself, but they all had to ask themselves for advice, and even not long ago, His Excellency Atlanta was asking herself about the knowledge of calculus, which is worthy of being an epoch-making progress in the field of mathematics and science!
After the fall of Alto, these companions of herself were numb and desperate, like undead creatures, but the book "Mathematical Principles of Magic Philosophy" was like a beacon in the dark night, illuminating the darkness, dispelling despair, and making them all full of a little hope, not because the magic was not strong enough, but because we didn't do enough before! The understanding of this world is still too far away!
If hope is not extinguished, the inheritance of magic will never end!
The corners of Erica's mouth quietly curled up, 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 with the crowd of inquiries: "Mr. Vice President, there is a high-ranking magician named Fernando who has asked for an audience in the deep mountain hut, and has passed the inspection, let him in?"
Before the vice president could answer, Erica stood up suddenly: "Mr. Fernando? He's very good at calculus!"
This is what Mr. Douglas said!
——The vast majority of magicians do not know that Douglas has been promoted to legend.
"What? Very good at calculus?" Before he finished speaking, the magicians in the valley disappeared and all rushed out, leaving only the mage who reported the news to look at Erica blankly.
