Chapter 97 The highlight is next:
the moon sets and the sun rises.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the trial.
There are less than ten hours left before the trial ends.
On the light curtain suspended above the mountain top, only about twenty of the originally densely packed scenes were left.
As the number decreases, the picture enlarges and becomes clearer.
below.
There were still crowds of people on the mountainside. The dark crowd stretched their necks and stared at the light curtain in the sky. From time to time, there was an uproar.
Just half an hour ago, something happened that shocked everyone.
Sang Fan, who was favored by many and recognized as one of the most promising wizard apprentices to get a spot in this trial, was born in the City Guards. He lost to a girl named Xiao Xi from Violet Academy and had to be teleported out of the maze. , was eliminated from the trial.
This scene caused an uproar among the spectators on the spot.
No one expected that Sang Fan would lose to a less famous student.
This development is indeed beyond the expectations of many people.
"That girl is so secretive. Even Sang Fan is no match for her." "
What kind of bugs are those, and why do they have such high spell resistance? They are too restrained for the wizard apprentice." "
It seems that Meng Wei and Su Shouhai have another problem. There is a strong opponent."
"And Pei Ze, his strength is not worse than Meng Wei and the others."
Exclaims came one after another.
The sudden change did not reduce the crowd's enthusiasm for watching the game, but instead brought the atmosphere to a new climax.
Many people are becoming more and more excited and looking forward to it, eager to see more participants in the battle.
"This Xiao Xi is so strong!" Yin Guang looked solemn.
Gu Lin nodded lightly and said solemnly: "She is following the path of biological transformation. She should have a close relationship with Master Yuan Meng of Violet Academy. He is most likely her disciple." Yin Guang's expression became more solemn
.
The Yuan Meng Gu Lin was talking about was the dean of Violet Academy. He specialized in biological transformation and was a well-known powerful wizard in Dawn City.
To be able to be accepted as a disciple by the dignified dean, the qualifications and strength of this wizard apprentice named Xiao Xi are estimated to be first-rate.
I just don’t know why I haven’t heard anything about it before.
Meng Kai frowned, feeling a little irritated.
This trial has been full of mishaps from the very beginning.
First it was Pei Ze, and now there is Xiao Xi.
Originally, he was full of confidence that his eldest brother would get a spot in the competition, but now he couldn't help but feel nervous.
Especially Pei Ze's performance so far made him even more anxious.
He already regrets it now. If he had known that Pei Ze was so powerful, he would have agreed to bet with Gu Lin if his head was caught in the door.
It's just that the contract has been made, and it's too late to regret it now. I can only hope that others will work harder and never let Pei Ze get the iridescent gem.
As if they heard his plea secretly, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.
Meng Kai looked up and saw Su Shouhai arriving at the central hall of the maze first on one of the screens.
There are only three meter-high stone pillars in the empty hall, standing at equal intervals in a triangle in the center of the hall.
On the top of each stone pillar is an iridescent gemstone.
Against the backdrop of the firelight, the gem emits seven colors of light, which is so beautiful that it is intoxicating.
Su Shouhai's face showed joy, he quickly rushed to one of the stone pillars and reached out to take the iridescent gem on it.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he was about to take away the other two iridescent gems, but was blocked by an invisible force.
Seeing that he could not do anything, Su Shouhai did not hesitate and turned around and left the hall without hesitation.
Iridescent gems cannot be stored in space props and cannot be taken out of the maze.
There are still more than eight hours before the end of the trial. During this period, he has to protect the iridescent gem and hold it until the last moment to be considered successful.
Surprisingly, at the moment Su Shouhai rushed out of the hall, the participants in the other scenes seemed to feel something at the same time, and they all accelerated their pace and rushed forward.
What's even more surprising is that they didn't stop along the way, and they didn't even use detection spells. They could always choose the right path, as if they had a map in their minds out of thin air.
And so it is.
Pei Ze was still exploring the maze, but suddenly the teleportation ring he wore on his right ring finger vibrated, and a stream of information suddenly entered the depths of his mind, turning into a map.
All the paths of the maze are marked in detail, and there are also three flashing light spots.
Two of the light spots were not far away from him, quietly leaning against each other without moving.
The remaining light point moved rapidly in the opposite direction to him.
Pei Ze immediately understood that these three light spots obviously represented the positions of the three iridescent gems.
"As long as someone gets the iridescent gem, they will immediately enter the next stage."
Pei Ze pursed his lips.
Those wizards are indeed as bad as ever.
The function of displaying the location in real time is clearly designed to create a situation where participants must fight each other.
Even if someone gets the iridescent gem, they will be hunted down by others until the trial is over.
But I have to admit that this is indeed the best way to test a person's strength.
People without sufficient strength simply cannot keep the iridescent gems.
His thoughts were whirling, but Pei Ze was not slow in his movements. He directly blessed himself with the wind rune, and released the jumping technique to strengthen his agility, and then rushed towards the two stationary light spots like a meteor.
The poor ferocious wild boar couldn't keep up with his speed, so he could only keep chasing after him.
In less than two minutes, Pei Ze arrived at the central hall.
Almost at the same time, a figure rushed out from the other three exits in the hall.
Among them, the one facing Pei Ze was the blond girl whom he had met not long ago.
At the exit on the left are two wizard apprentices wearing leather armor and black robes, with powerful auras.
On the right are three young apprentices. Judging from the badges worn on their chests, they are students of Shadow Academy.
Pei Ze and Xiao Xi looked at each other from a distance.
The two people's eyes flashed at the same time, and they reached a silent tacit understanding almost instantly. They jumped out at the same time, rushing to the left and right respectively towards the two stone pillars containing iridescent gems.
The expressions of the other two groups of people changed slightly when they saw this, and they stopped them without saying a word.
The two black-robed apprentices rushed decisively towards Xiao Xi, who was nearest. The sword blades in their hands slashed out of the air at the same time, tearing the air and stirring up ear-piercing sonic explosions. In an instant, two fiery red air blades were shot at the blond girl like sharp arrows.
Facing the incoming air blade, Xiao Xi's expression remained unchanged and his speed did not slow down at all. It was not until the moment the air blade approached his body that his body suddenly exploded and turned into a dark cloud composed of flies.
The two air blades passed straight through the dark clouds, hit the ground not far away, and exploded two deep ravines with a loud bang.
The dark clouds rushed towards the stone pillars without stopping, rolled up the iridescent gems and rushed towards the nearest exit.
The two black-robed apprentices cursed in annoyance and chased after him without hesitation.
At the same time, three apprentices from Shadow Academy also blocked Pei Ze's path towards the stone pillar aggressively.
The leading red-haired young man with three horizontal black lines on his left cheek moved his lips quickly, and in an instant there was a continuous clicking sound. Countless earth elements gathered in and formed a giant rock block with a diameter of nearly one meter in the air. It crashed into Pei Ze like a cannonball. Another black-haired young man wearing earrings also grinned and released eight spell missiles, attacking Pei Ze from the left and right sides.
The last apprentice took this opportunity to rush towards the iridescent gem.
Pei Ze snorted and swung his sword suddenly.
"Get away!"
The moment the words were spoken, a violent hurricane suddenly emerged, turning into an invisible shock wave and sweeping forward. The air in its path was distorted, forming a twisted trajectory visible to the naked eye!
Storm Slash!
boom!
The giant rock shattered into pieces the moment it hit the hurricane, and the eight spell missiles were also drawn into it by the strong pulling force, crushed and annihilated.
The violent hurricane rolled forward with a ferocious and domineering momentum, slamming into the red-haired young man and the black-haired young man.
In the horrified eyes of the two people, the mage armor on their bodies collapsed. They could not even resist for a moment. The defensive magic items they carried with them made crisp cracking sounds one after another, and each one exceeded the defense limit and was directly destroyed.
The next moment, a sharp sword light came over like lightning and stone fire, and passed across the necks of the two people.
laugh!
Two bright red blood flowers bloomed in the void instantly.
The third apprentice had just gotten the iridescent gem and turned around with surprise. What he saw was the scene of his two companions clutching their throats and falling to the ground with despair on their faces.
His face suddenly turned pale.
The next second, his head seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and his whole body felt dizzy.
When he finally woke up, what he saw was a huge blazing fireball.
The short scream of "No"
just sounded, and was drowned by the ear-splitting explosion.
The unlucky guy didn't even have time to activate the teleportation ring before he was drowned by the raging flames and followed in the footsteps of his companions.
Pei Ze caught the exploded iridescent gemstone with an indifferent expression, looked at it carefully, and saw that the gemstone was undamaged, he rushed out of the hall without looking back.
On the mountainside.
Seeing Pei Ze get the iridescent gem, the crowd suddenly burst into exclamation.
"It's too strong. Those three wizard apprentices from Shadow Academy are no match for them!" "
Now the three iridescent gems are owned. Let's see if they can hold on." "
Look, everyone else is chasing after them. It's over."
The light curtain screen turned and turned into a huge flat map. Three golden light points were moving rapidly on it, and more than ten white light points were surrounding it from all directions, forming an encirclement.
Seeing that an encirclement and suppression battle was about to begin, many people looked excited.
Only the apprentices from the Shadow Academy looked gloomy.
Not only because Pei Ze killed three of their classmates, but also because Pei Ze got the iridescent gem before Meng Wei.
Meng Kai's face was so gloomy at this time that he seemed to be dripping with water.
The worst situation still happened.
Why did Pei Ze get the iridescent gem first?
"Hehe."
Gu Lin's clear and melodious laughter came from the side. The girl raised her chin slightly and looked at Meng Kai triumphantly.
"It looks like you are going to lose."
Meng Kai's face darkened when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth with a stern face: "The trial is not over yet, and the final result is still unknown. Don't be complacent!"
Gu Lin put his hands behind his back. , smiling and not refuting.
But this makes it even more irritating.
Meng Kai was very annoyed, but before he could speak, he seemed to see something suddenly out of the corner of his eye. His eyes lit up suddenly, and he laughed loudly: "The highlight is next!"
Gu Lin smiled slightly and followed his gaze. I went there and found that behind the light spot representing Pei Ze on the light screen, I didn't know when there was a white light spot.
There is also a name marked next to the light spot - Mengwei!
Gu Lin's expression suddenly became a little solemn.
Of course she believed in Pei Ze's strength, but Meng Wei was also a well-known strong man. It was hard to say who would win when these two faced off.
Meng Kai was full of confidence in his eldest brother. He glanced sideways at Gu Lin and sneered: "Soon you will know who is the real strong one!"
Gu Lin glanced at him and ignored him without blinking. Staring at the light curtain.
More and more people noticed this scene and turned their attention.
Under the gaze of everyone, the distance between the two light spots quickly shortened to within a hundred meters, and then a screen popped up, revealing that it was Pei Ze and Meng Wei chasing each other back and forth.
Pei Ze immediately noticed the person chasing behind him. He glanced sideways and his eyes suddenly froze.
"Meng Wei!"
Naturally, Pei Ze didn't know about this 'seeded player' who was recognized as the most promising candidate for the competition.
Especially when the other party is a member of the blood family.
"Hand over the iridescent gems and I'll spare your life!" Meng Wei shouted coldly.
Pei Ze smiled. These people may have been flattered a lot and are used to being superior. They all like to treat others as soft persimmons.
He simply stopped and turned back to Mengwei.
Seeing Pei Ze stop, Meng Wei immediately stopped vigilantly and looked at Pei Ze with narrowed eyes.
However, Pei Ze just looked at him with a half-smile and said nothing.
Seeing this, Meng Wei's eyes turned cold and he was about to speak, but the next moment, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a huge black shadow rushing out from the next room, slamming into him like a chariot.
Mengwei focused all his attention on Pei Ze. He didn't expect someone to attack him unexpectedly. He was hit by a black shadow without warning, and was driven two to three hundred meters away. Finally, he hit the wall at the end of the corridor with a loud bang.
Suddenly there was a loud roar and smoke and dust.
It was only then that a high-pitched beast roar sounded in the smoke.
But it is a ferocious wild boar man.
After receiving Pei Ze's order, it hid in the room until Pei Ze and Meng Wei both stopped before brazenly launching a surprise attack.
Of course, it was impossible to kill Meng Wei with this sneak attack. At most, it would cause him a little trouble.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pei Ze began to add wind runes and earth runes to himself, and then added a lightning rune to the weapon.
As soon as he finished all this, he heard a loud roar, and the ferocious wild boar broke through the smoke and fell out, hitting the ground hard.
There was already a bloody gap in its throat, with obvious and messy tooth marks on the edge, as if it had been bitten and torn by some kind of beast. Blood surged out of it like it was free, and it looked like it was no longer alive.
Ta-ta!
With heavy footsteps, Mengwei slowly walked out of the smoke.
His appearance has undergone tremendous changes. He has transformed from a handsome young man with a height of more than 1.8 meters to a werewolf that stands upright and is nearly three meters tall.
The whole body is covered with a thick layer of pure white hair.
The limbs turned into beast-like claws and hooves, and the sharp claw blades shone with a cold light under the firelight, which was really frightening.
"It seems that you are ready to die."
Meng Wei stared at Pei Ze with cold eyes, as if he were looking at a dead person.
The next moment, he suddenly jumped out and rushed towards Pei Ze with a roar.
