wizard's path

() Eric, who was sitting in a single cell, had just finished learning all the zero-ring magic he got from Edwin.

Eric has received two months of gladiator training at Batista's estate.During this period, Eric was recovering his strength every moment, and just the day before yesterday, his strength had reached the level of a first-order knight.

However, the physical strength has not improved much, after all, the conditions are insufficient.

During these two months, Eric not only saw Yalong people, but also tiger people, orcs and giants.

I don't know how to become Batista's follower, Jack's life is very nourishing.

The Argonian maid showed affectionate eyes to him, and in many noble banquets, many nobles looked at Jack differently.

On the night before arriving at Batista Manor, while the pirates were galloping on women, Eric stayed in his cell analyzing magic.

At this time, Jack gave him a note.

The message on the note is to tell Eric not to have the idea of ​​escaping, and to arrange an escape plan for Eric.

Eric, who had witnessed the failure of a collective escape, also extinguished the idea of ​​escaping in his heart.

Now he does not have this strength.But if you become an official wizard and learn some first-ring magic, then there will be no problem at all.

However, although Eric's current mental power is slowly increasing, it is still the standard for middle-level wizard apprentices.

Eric, who started to practice boxing, grew rapidly within two months, so he also ate a lot.This made the person in charge of training the pirates often deliberately make things difficult for Eric, but he was fooled by Eric every time.

"Fool Eric, are you practicing your combat skills again? If you work hard, I will break your head off tonight." Opposite Eric's cell, there is a cell where several people stay together.

And this pirate who was very unfriendly to Eric was taught by Eric a month ago.This guy actually took advantage of the riot and wanted to insult Coldo.

It has to be said that Koldo is really a lovely girl except for the characteristics of Argonians.Therefore, based on emotion and reason, Eric turned the pirate into a eunuch at that time.

Later, when Fatty Jack found out about this, he vowed to kowtow to Eric after he went out.

But Eric was called a fool again. It was when Eric needed some rewards because he performed well during training, and Eric actually needed some books.

This made the pirates laugh, but no one laughed at Eric for not being a man. Everyone compared things in the shower, and it turned out that Eric, who was still a young man, was richer than most pirates.

Tonight is an important day for the pirates.

Three days later, it will be the founding ceremony of the Dawn Empire.Their hope of freedom is there, but only half of the gladiators can participate in the celebration.

Who that half is will be decided tonight.

Soon, someone opened the cell.

Looking at the pirates who came out, Fatty Jack said: "Tonight, half of you will walk the road of freedom."

At this time, the pirates no longer laughed at each other in the past, and everyone was silent.

Because apart from himself, anyone else could be his opponent.

When they came to the clearing on the edge of the cliff, they saw that a duel ring had already been prepared on the clearing.

This arena was primitive and bloody, and its structure consisted only of two fixed pieces of wood placed on top of a piece of sharp wooden thorns.Two people will step on the log to have a duel.

As for the opponents, everyone gets a number, and the duel is called by Fat Jack.

When the pirates stood by the dueling ring, Batista stood on a high platform not far away, looked down at everyone and said: "Although you have committed many evils, death is not a pity.

But the empire is willing to give you a chance to gain freedom.So you should be grateful for this gift, and you can only thank us with fierce fighting, fighting, and fighting. "

When Batista finished speaking and sat down, he began to talk to many nobles who were watching the battle together.Fat Jack just started drawing numbers from a barrel.

"Wait!" The pirate who said he wanted to show Eric stood up and knelt down to Batista: "My lord, I am not worthy to say your name, but please allow me to be the first The arena of the duel, where I will challenge three people as the opening ceremony of this duel."

Sitting Batista smiled and nodded to Fat Jack.

So Fatty Jack said to the pirate: "Okay, Master Batista has agreed to your request, now start to choose who you want to challenge!"

"This person is very smart. Although he said he wanted to challenge three people, he got the chance to choose a few weak opponents."

"Wisdom on the battlefield is also indispensable. I will designate a third opponent for this slave, if he passes the first two levels, haha."

Batista on the high platform chatted with other nobles in a low voice.

The pirate scanned the crowd excitedly, as if he had chosen three people long ago, and focused his eyes on the three of them.

Seeing the pirate's eyes, Borg paused on Baler for a while, and almost rushed out of the crowd.These two months are in the eyes of those in charge of gladiator training.Baler's performance is not as good as Eric's.

Although Eric wins less and loses more, he is always unyielding. As for Baler, he is picked on the ground like a bitch every time.

But the person in charge of the training certainly didn't know how much Eric had racked his brains in order to pretend to be a failure.

Finally, the pirate pointed at Eric and said, "You, come up!"

"This person is really good at picking, actually picking such a young man."

"Hehe, no matter how clever he is, I will give him a surprise in the end."

The nobles on the high platform became quiet and began to focus on the duel field, which was a rare pastime for them.

Eric chose a dagger and a wooden shield before stepping onto the dueling ring.

Due to being at sea all year round, the bottom plates of the pirates are basically very solid, and the two pieces of wood will not cause any inconvenience.

Of course, this is without external force.

As soon as Eric stood on the dueling ring, the pirate rushed up.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." several times in succession, the pirate who chose two swords kept hitting Eric with both swords. Under the fierce attack, Eric could only passively Raise your shield to defend.

Watching Eric keep retreating, the pirate's expression became more and more excited, because behind him, there were guards holding long guns.

Under the blow of the pirate's double swords, Eric, who had no power to fight back, seemed to be unable to stand still.

Just when everyone thought the duel was about to end, Eric suddenly lost his footing and fell down.

As a result, Eric was lucky enough to stand still, and seemingly under the pressure of death, he raised his shield and hit his opponent's face.

The opponent was stunned by the sudden bump, but he slipped when he was supposed to stand firm, and Eric hit him again with his momentum, and then the pirate fell down.

The pirate who was pierced by the spikes under the ring was quickly pulled out by Jack's men and thrown directly off the cliff.The pirate who still had his breath could only watch helplessly as he was thrown off the cliff, doing flat throws.

"My stun potion is not cheap!" Jack's voice suddenly rang in the pirate's ear.

"This boy is really lucky!" A nobleman on the high platform laughed.
