Deconstruction wizard

Chapter 175. 174. Dragon's Imprisonment
After a night of sailing, the magic ship sailed into the deep sea area.

The water turned a rich black, dull even in sunlight.The sea and the sky on the horizon are clearly separated.The sky is still cloudless, blue and deep, but the sea is like a pool of stagnant water that has long since solidified, filled with a frightening silence.

The deep sea water in this world is not just as simple as extremely high salinity, it also has complex extraordinary properties, specifically manifested as astonishingly corrosive.

Imagine that 80% of the star pollution that falls through the stellar filter ends up in the ocean.These starry sky pollutions are like medicinal herbs soaked in wine jars, slowly releasing their own pollution and Beyonder characteristics.As long as the time is long enough, the starry sky pollution will one day "melt" in the sea water and integrate itself with the vast ocean.

Just grab a handful of seawater from the deep sea, and you can detect several kinds of toxins, uncontrollable mutation factors, and weird magical effects.This is enough to prove how powerful and survivable the sea people living on the bottom of the sea are.

Fortunately, Captain Berkeley, the nine-ring metal combat wizard, was there.He and his magic ship kept the discomfort of the deep sea out of the boat.Passengers can enjoy the deep-sea journey in a comfortable and leisurely atmosphere.

"Dear passengers, we are now located in the deep sea area 315 kilometers east of Dianjin Island. This deep sea area is called the "Sea of ​​Black Folds", and its interior is divided into 80 sub-sea areas.Each sub-sea has its own fog threshold.

"The speed of the magic ship is currently 14 kilometers per hour. We will cross the Sea of ​​Black Folds in the next 21 days and enter the "Sea of ​​Swords", an outer sea area west of Baldur's Gate.If the weather is clear and the view is excellent, passengers will see Baldr's Gate rising from the sea to the east at noon on the 21st day.It is a monument of civilization left over from the last era, shaped like a magnificent sword inserted into the earth.I wish you a pleasant journey. "

The magic strip above the streets of the small town on the ship is playing Captain Berkeley's words in a loop.

Li Nuo looked up and glanced at the dynamic text on the strip, and then walked into the gate of the arena opened by the magic servant, holding Denise on his arm.

The arena is located on the southwest side of the town on the ship, near the stern of the ship.

Its appearance resembles a chunky cylinder, which is only more than 30 meters wide and more than [-] meters high from the outside.

Only after stepping into it can one discover another universe.

A magical space covering an area of ​​over a thousand square meters was fixed on a magic ship and became the venue for competitive competitions.

A circle of auditorium surrounds the octagonal cage in the center of the venue.

The seats in the auditorium are simple and unpretentious, just a single wooden chair that is more comfortable to sit on.

That octagonal cage has something to say.It is a magical creation, made of strong magic metal for the base and fence, with enchanted fence nets that can absorb magical energy.

With the protection of an enchanted fence net, spectators can safely watch the radiant game.

Li Nuo and Denise sat down in the auditorium dedicated to contestants.

His eyes focused on the enchanted fence, and he threw out a deconstruction technique.

【system information:】

[You are about to use deconstruction on "Enchanted Fence Net (Level 60)."]

[Estimated consumption of 6 energy points can make the deconstruction complete to 100%]

Li Nuo nodded secretly.

I should be able to get the 6 energy point reward.As a contestant, it makes sense for him to throw his spells on the enchanted fence net because his opponent dodged his attack.

With his eyes shifted, Li Nuo looked at the contestants who took their seats in the auditorium one after another.

The Bahrain Tournament only allows Beyonders of Tier [-] and below to participate.The number of matches and opponents for contestants is completely determined by the competition system.A sorcerer like Li Nuo who apparently only has one level of strength is likely to meet second, third, or even fifth level wizards who come to join in the fun.

Wouldn't the five-ring wizard be able to win all the rewards for participating?
No, this will not happen.

Before entering the magic octagonal cage, the contestants will wear something called a "collar of imprisonment" on their wrists to suppress their strength to the level of the first ring.

--Yes, it is.Collars are worn on the hands, not the neck.Wearing this kind of torture device with leather buckles and magic gemstones on the necks of contestants is somewhat insulting.Therefore, contestants generally use it as a watch and wear it on their wrists.Except for individual players with special hobbies.

According to the "History of the Ring of Unas", the "Collar of Imprisonment" is a magical product of the last era.At that time, most human wizards were slaves of the Dragon Clan.Today, the Dragon Clan is basically gone, only appearing occasionally in the Feixuan Continent.Human wizards are flourishing, spreading the fire of civilization to the whole world, and using the shackles imposed on their ancestors in the past as magic props for competition.

Anyone who knows the origin of the "Collar of Confinement" will lament the prosperity of human wizard civilization and the vicissitudes of the world.

Li Nuo is no exception.

But the focus of his attention is on the ontology of "imprisonment collar", rather than its historical connotation.

He had heard of this thing before, and now he finally saw the real thing.

The staff of the Bahrain Arena who maintained the order at the scene distributed the "collar of confinement" to each contestant.

There is a number on the collar, which is attached to the belt in the form of a label.

Li Nuo's player number is 116.

He held the collar and rubbed his fingers lightly on the magic gem on the belt, and a tingling sensation like an electric shock came from his fingertips.

Lines of systematic text quickly emerged in Li Nuo's mind.

【system information:】

[You have touched the "Soul Stasis Gem". 】

[Take this gem with you and touch it with your skin, you will get the following effects:]

[1. "Consciousness blockade", your consciousness will no longer be able to leave the body and enter any magical space, such as the Garden of Silence. 】

[2. "Psychic suppression", the ancient dragon clan called magic and various extraordinary abilities "spiritual power".They discovered that the soul is the key for extraordinary people to mobilize extraordinary abilities.The "spiritual energy suppression" effect of this gem will effectively suppress the restlessness at the soul level, thereby reducing the extraordinary strength of the wearer. 】

【Note:】

["Psychic Suppression" is only for extraordinary abilities driven by the soul."Life force" and "physical power", which are the second of the three original forces, will not be affected by "spiritual suppression". 】

[Any spell or skill that can be cast with "soul strength" is driven by the soul. 】

【The host please check the skill list and wear this gem carefully. 】

Li Nuo noticed the last line of system text.

He called up his skill list and checked it carefully.

There are 18 death spells, all of which can be cast with soul strength.

There are 12 spiritual spells, all of which can be cast with soul strength.

The generic spell, "Magic Shield", can be cast with soul strength.

On the whole, only the twilight breathing method and "power burst" obtained from "Soul Casting" do not need to consume soul strength.Both of these skills only use stamina.

This should be the difference between "soul-driven" and "physical power-driven".Soul-driven skills cannot be separated from soul energy, and can also be replaced by other energies.However, skills driven by physical strength do not require soul energy at all.

As for skills driven by vitality...

Li Nuo rummaged through his knowledge reserves and found the night spirit spell deconstructed from the relic of Fugudia.In this branch of spells, vitality is involved.But unfortunately, all night spirit spells need to use soul energy, or the blood magic power that replaces soul energy.They still belong to the category of skills driven by the soul.

So, so far, Li Nuo has not acquired a skill that is purely driven by vitality.

After wearing the "Collar of Imprisonment", "Power Explosion" will become his trump card.

Then can I use "Power Explosion" to steal chickens?
Facing the collar in his hand, Li Nuo blinked.

He raised his head and scanned the contestants back and forth.Most of them are wizards, and a few are strong men in armor.

After the armored men put on the collars, they grinned and laughed cheerfully, apparently finding that the rumored "collar of imprisonment" had no effect on their muscles.They looked at the wizard with a playful look, as if they were looking at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

After the wizard contestants put on the collars, discomfort appeared on their faces, but they basically maintained their composure and calmness, and no panic was seen.This shows that even if the wizards are partially suppressed, they still have sufficient confidence and strong armored men who master brute force.

Combining the magic knowledge he learned recently, Li Nuo saw some tricks.

The mainstream power system in this world is wizards.Even a battle wizard with only one level of strength can fight back and forth with third-level, fourth-level, and even fifth-level brute force extraordinary people.This is similar to the general existence of consensus.

Such an unbalanced Extraordinary system is all caused by the wizard's magical power being too powerful.

But think about it.

This world is not made by any game company, so there is no need to pursue a balance between occupations.It is the result of natural development that wizards can be so strong.

Li Nuo put on the collar for himself with a normal expression, and placed the gem close to his left wrist.

The system sent a reminder that all his magic skills were forcibly reduced to level 10.While the power of spells has declined, the upgrade rewards for the entire ten levels have not changed. "Two Fingers of Death" is still "Two Fingers of Death", it has not degenerated into "One Finger of Death".

In addition, his "spiritual" attribute value has temporarily dropped to 30 points, which is the level of a wizard who has just stepped into the first ring.

Li Nuo threw out the deconstruction technique and took a look.

The "Soul Stasis Gem" on his wrist is level 50, produced by the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department in Unas Ring. It was originally a torture tool for escorting criminals, but somehow it fell into the hands of Bahrain Games.

The level 50 "soul stasis gem" can suppress the strength of Extraordinary people whose level does not exceed level 50.

Li Nuo needs to consume 1.5 energy points to release it.

Li Nuo was thinking about the possibility of breaking the gem during the battle, and was not in a hurry to break the gem.

While he was thinking to himself, Denise tugged at the hem of his clothes and whispered:
"Look, I found that there are quite a few gray wizards participating in the competition. Be careful. Many gray wizards do not follow the usual path, and may master strange spells."

"Well, okay. Don't worry, Denise." Li Nuo came back to his senses, held the other's hand and rubbed it gently to show comfort.

After waiting for a while, all the contestants arrived and the auditorium was full.

The staff in gray robes began to draw lots.The way of drawing lots in the wizarding world is not complicated.The staff walked past the contestants holding the metal box where the number plate was placed.

Since the contestants' numbers are not disclosed, the metal box is also airtight and shields against detection spells.All contestants select their opponents blindly without knowing the numbers of other contestants.

After the lottery was drawn, dynamic words of magic were refreshed on the magic bulletin board, showing the number of matches for each contestant.

The competitive rules of the game are very simple, using a classic round-robin system.The two sides enter the octagonal cage and decide the winner within 30 minutes, whichever side surrenders.Winners get points, losers lose points.After all contestants face off, the top 16 contestants will advance to the next stage.

In the vast deep sea, to be idle is to be idle.Passengers are also happy to have a game to watch, so they have no complaints about the time-consuming competition system such as the round-robin system.

The same goes for the contestants.As far as Li Nuo is concerned, the ranking in the competition is the second, and the energy value obtained through passive deconstruction is the first.Round robin fit his needs just fine.

The game begins.

The first is a duel between two wizards, one skilled in lightning magic and the other in rock and earth magic.The Thunder Wizard unleashes swarms of scurrying lightning balls in an octagonal cage, and the Rock Wizard protects himself with Rock Armor and counters with Ground Spikes.

The lightning flashed, the rock and soil surged, and the ground spikes chased the Thunder Wizard's footsteps and pierced continuously.

Seeing this scene, the ordinary passengers in the auditorium were excited, and many families traveling overseas with their families heard the screams of children.

The wizards watching the game commented on the battle scene in the octagonal cage.The contestants of the non-wizard system were dignified, and the first-level lightning spells and geotechnical spells still put a lot of pressure on them.

Li Nuo didn't care about the battle process.

He took out the magic books he hadn't finished reading, and read to pass the time.

Denise was much more serious than Li Nuo.She took out a small notebook solemnly and helped Li Nuo record the strengths and advantages of each contestant.

About two hours later, Li Nuo was awakened by Dynas while reading.

"It's your turn, Lee."

"Oh, okay." Li Nuo smiled at the concerned Danas, and used "Death Flight" to fly into the octagonal cage.

Li Nuo's opponent is a witch wearing a water-blue magic robe.

His name is unknown, and his height, origin, and three-dimensional details are also unknown.

Li Nuo only cares about how much energy the other party can bring to him.

A deconstruction technique was thrown casually.

【system information:】

[The deconstruction technique is about to be used on the "unknown four-ring battle wizard". 】

[Estimated consumption of 7 energy points can make the deconstruction complete to 100%]

Well, yes, 7 energy points.I didn't expect to meet a big fat fish as soon as I came up.

Li Nuo landed on the playing field, turned back into a human form, activated the "breath of the dead" and entered the form of a skeleton.

A white bone skeleton appeared on the field, which inevitably caused riots in the auditorium.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Ordinary people who have not mastered the power of magic are puzzled by how a handsome living person can turn into a skeleton.

The wizard who mastered the power of magic is accurately recording Li Nuo's spellcasting habits, spells and energy characteristics.

The witch in front of Li Nuo seemed to be a little disgusted with the death wizard.

At the moment when Li Nuo showed the death spell, she knit her two eyebrows together, raised her chin slightly and asked:
"Are you a member of the Death Council?"

The witch's magic robe bears the emblem of Hortams Deep Sea Academy. It is an arm protruding from under the rippled water, with the palm facing up, holding a pearl.

As an academic wizard, she has wider knowledge than ordinary wizards, and she easily "recognized" Li Nuo's identity from the basic style of the magic robe.

Li Nuo knew that he couldn't avoid the knowledgeable wizards with his clothes transformed from the robes of the Death Society, so he didn't care.

He didn't respond, just stared at the other person with empty eye sockets.

Talking trash to each other is not a necessary pre-battle part of competitive play.

Seeing that Li Nuo had no intention of talking to his opponent, the gray-robed workers in the audience closed the octagonal cage and announced the start of the competition.

The witch drew out a magic wand made of coral, and sprayed a thick white mist from the tip of the wand, covering the half of the field she was in with the mist.

Li Nuo quietly turned on "Life and Death Tracking", and accurately identified the opponent's exact position from the thick fog.

Li Nuo intends to hone his "magic manipulation proficiency".

He held the death thread wand in his hand, carefully guiding the death energy through the body and into the wand.

A black ray shot out from the tip of the staff, and the dots fell into the white fog.

"Om."

The sound of the rays is very slight, like electrophoresis.The appearance of the ray is no longer a ferocious black lightning, but has become as slender as black hair.

If you look carefully with a magnifying glass, you will find that this hair-thin energy ray is actually made up of two thinner rays intertwined.

Under Li Nuo's careful control, "Two Fingers of Death" appeared on the playing field in the form of "One Finger of Death".

["Magic Manipulation Proficiency" skill experience +2 points, now 132/1000]

The system updates skill data synchronously.

Sure enough, training passive skills with "Two Fingers of Death" is much better than training with "Magic Shield".

Li Nuo's wrist moved continuously, shooting dozens of black rays continuously.

A strange scene appeared in the auditorium.

Ordinary people who don't know why are a little restless, they talk in low voices, not knowing what Li Nuo is doing.The spells of this skeleton wizard are too crude, far less attractive than the previous games where the magic was shining brightly.

The wizards have already fallen into a state of brain shutdown.

High-level spells like "Finger of Death" are basically known by every wizard.The ability to cast death rays instantly without casting spells is the most obvious feature of this spell.

All Extraordinary people recognized the spell Li Nuo was casting now, which was the "Finger of Death" that needed the authorization of the lecturer professor to use.

The "Finger of Death" he is currently releasing is weak, probably only at level 1, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is him trying to make his opponent retreat.

A person wearing a ring of wizard's robe casually spills a level 10 "Finger of Death", is this match still worth fighting?
"Hey! Referee! What's going on! Is this man really a one-ring wizard? How can he use "Finger of Death" without restriction! ? "

The contestants in the audience shouted and questioned the competition organizers.

"Yeah! Did you let in a six-ring wizard who can freely cast high-level spells?!"

"You want to embezzle bonuses for yourself and manipulate behind the scenes, isn't that how you play? Really think we are blind, can't we see that this is the "finger of death"? "

The staff of the Bahrain Competition looked at each other and looked at the referee's seat in unison.

There are six people on the referee's bench.

Maeve Le was invited by the organizer to act as a referee and sat on the far left of the referee seat.

Among the remaining five people, four of them, like Maevele, are six-ring wizards of the Unas ring, with relatively prominent identities and pasts.

Six-ring wizards have greater autonomy in using high-level spells, and they can use high-level spells for a limited number of times per day.

Facing Li Nuo who fired the "Finger of Death" like a squirt gun, the five six-ring wizards on the referee's bench focused on the director of the Bahrain competition in the center of the referee's bench.

The supervisor was overweight, like a bloated stone pier when he sat on the chair, and his magic robe was bulging from the fat under his clothes.

His eye sockets are deeply sunken, and mung bean-like eyes are embedded in the eye sockets.He fixed his dark green hair with hairspray and combed it into a somewhat greasy back.

"The No. 116 contestant who cast "Finger of Death" boarded the ship with Ms. Maevele. The sports director looked calm, without any emotional fluctuations. He looked towards the edge of the referee table, and turned the topic to Maevele:
"The strength level registered on the ticket of contestant No. 116 is a battle wizard. As for why he can cast "Finger of Death" so easily, I think Ms. Maevele should be able to give us a reasonable explanation. "

"Yes, I know why. It has something to do with his Extraordinary characteristics..."

Maevele looked at Filia and Betty who were sitting in the auditorium next to them, and the other party was staring at him curiously.

With a polite smile, Maeve explained the reason to Filia and the referee.

The soul contract she signed with Li Nuo only mentioned that she would protect Li Nuo's secrets before leaving Dianjin Island, but did not say that she would help Li Nuo keep the secrets after leaving Dianjin Island.

Therefore, Maevele now uses Extraordinary characteristics as an excuse to explain why Li Nuo can freely cast the spell "Finger of Death", which does not violate the soul contract.

After listening to Maevele's explanation, the sports director pondered for a few seconds.There was no change in the slightest expression on his face, just like the surface of water hidden deep at the bottom of a well.

"There is nothing wrong with this contestant, he can continue to compete."

The sports director beckoned, summoned the gray-robed staff under him, and said to the other party:

"After this competition is over, you go and announce that contestant No. 116 has the extraordinary characteristic of "magic proficiency", emphasizing that he also has a companion witch as a companion.Anyone who defeats him will receive an additional bonus of 2000 gold coins.If contestant No. 116 gets the top ten results, the competition reward will be distributed to No. 11.The reward for 11th place is the same as for 10th place.Also, during the lunch break, send a message to player 116, I want to see him. "

"Yes, supervisor." The gray-robed staff member ran away.

Obviously, the director of the competition has been involved in organizing competitions for many years, and quickly seized the opportunity of the contradiction to formulate a reward plan to bring the atmosphere of the competition to a higher level.

The referees on the bench had no objection to this.

The referee's seat fell silent.

The sports director looked towards the corner of the arena, cast a few veiled glances, and nodded invisibly.

Everyone's attention was focused on the octagonal cage, and no one noticed the move of the athletic director.
