Chapter 341 Competition

Chapter 341 Competition

Iron-walled Great Wall Fortress, in a cold hall.

In the empty hall, there is a platform in front, and chairs are arranged one after another below. The layout is somewhat similar to the teaching room of a wizard academy.

Coron and Enzo sat quietly in their own seats. Next to them, there was a witch in white robe with the Kendi family's silver lightning logo embroidered on her collar.

"Are you saying that Dean Froslai summoned first-level conqueror wizards from all over the country this time just to hold a competitive match?" Coron frowned and said hesitantly.

"As far as I know, that's it!" Next to her, the white-robed witch Belika shrugged and raised her hand to comb her long hair at the temples.

"This is not logical at all!"

On the other side, Enzo also frowned, shook his head and said, "The academy is currently in the midst of an expedition. We have tried our best to fight against the Children of the Forest. It is simply ridiculous to hold a competitive match now!"

The so-called competition, as the name suggests, is a competition!

According to Bellica's description, Dean Froslai summoned conqueror first-level wizards from all over the country this time just to hold a competition between wizards.

"When I first received this information, I felt incredible and even doubted the authenticity of the information."

Bellica sighed and said, "However, this information was given to me by Grandpa Yamos, so it cannot be false!"

"Yamos?" Enzo's eyes flashed.

Amos Kendi, the controller of the Leyton Kingdom, the head of the Kendi family, a second-level wizard like Gustav.

If the news really came from his mouth, then it was extremely true, but Enzo still couldn't understand why the academy suddenly decided to hold a competitive match during the war.

"Wait patiently, the academy will give us an explanation." Corun pondered for a moment and said, "Calculating the time, the first-level conqueror wizards from other areas should also arrive at the fortress today and notify us to gather here. They must be planning to issue a formal notice!”

While several people were talking, more wizards entered the hall one after another.

The first-level conqueror wizards from each region have arrived at the fortress one after another within the specified time. It was last night that Enzo and Colon received the notice to gather in the hall, and happened to meet Colon's blood cousin. Bellica.

There are only two conqueror wizards in the Kendi family, Corun and Belika!

As time continued to pass, more and more wizards appeared in the hall, many of whom were familiar faces to Enzo.

Others, however, looked a little unfamiliar.

This time, Dean Froslai summoned first-level conqueror wizards from all over the country. Not only the members of [Phantoms of Crows], but also the members of [Skull Castle] and [Fang Blood Shadow] came after receiving the order. Arrive at the Iron Wall Great Wall Fortress.

Gradually, all the seats in the hall were filled.

Enzo looked around and found that there were less than forty first-level conqueror wizards from all over the world, half of whom were members of [Phantoms of Crows], and the rest were from the other two major organizations.

"Sure enough, conqueror wizards are few in number..."

Enzo murmured to himself that the two different paths represent different rules of wizard civilization. Compared with the guardian wizards, the process of being promoted to wizards by conquerors is more difficult, and the number is naturally rarer.

The total number of first-level wizards in the three major organizations in the Dark Pole is about five hundred. However, most of them are guardian wizards, and less than one-tenth of them are conqueror wizards.

Da da da!

At this time, with the sound of footsteps, the hall fell into silence. In the eyes of all wizards, Wizard Mitchell in white robes slowly walked towards him, and behind him was a fiery red figure.

"Myrcella?"

Enzo raised his eyebrows. He had not seen her for more than ten years. Myrcella still looked like in his memory. She was wearing a red robe like a flame and had an unruly and cold temperament.

After following Mitchell into the hall, Myrcella randomly found a seat to sit down, while Wizard Mitchell came to the front and walked to the podium.

"Hello, little ones!"

"Now I want to announce some good news. This time I called you to the fortress because the three major organizations jointly discussed and decided to hold a wizard competition that will be participated by all conqueror first-level wizards!"

As soon as Mitchell finished speaking, there was a commotion below.

Almost everyone was whispering to each other and whispering to their companions. Those who knew the information in advance, such as Bellica and Enzo, were able to remain calm, while others were a little emotional.

"Are you kidding me? Wizarding competition?"

"Is the leader crazy? Now during the expedition, the 32nd Tower where I was stationed was always facing attacks from those alien races, and now you summoned me here just for a competitive match?"

"what happened?"

Mitchell was not surprised when he heard the whispers in the hall. He clapped his hands lightly when everyone was talking.

A faint magic spread around, and the hall fell into silence. All wizards stopped talking and looked forward.

"I know everyone is confused about the competition."

Mitchell spoke slowly and said, "However, this matter was decided jointly by several third-level wizards. Please don't question it and try to prepare everything as well as possible."

"This competition will be held in three days, with a total of three rounds of competition. In the end, five winners will be selected from forty first-level conqueror wizards, and each will be rewarded with a magic weapon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a pause in the hall.

"Magical Witch Weapon!?" A flash of light flashed in Enzo's eyes, and he was filled with astonishment. He was already confused about the competition, but when he heard that the final reward was five magical wizard weapons, he became even more confused. shocked.

"Why are the three major organizations eager to hold wizard competitions, even taking out magical witchcraft as the final reward?"

The thoughts in Enzo's heart were changing. He had a very clear understanding of the preciousness of magic weapons. It would be difficult for a first-level wizard to own an item of that level even if he spent all his wealth.

Under normal circumstances, only second-level wizards can access the magic weapon. As a strong second-level wizard, Gustav also relied on the magic weapon [Soul-Sealing Chain] to trap him in the Noel area. Giant tree parent body.

According to outside rumors, the Kendi family, which has a second-level wizard in charge and has been passed down for thousands of years, only has three magic weapons in total, and they are the family's treasures.

"Mr. Mitchell, are you telling the truth?"

At this time, a red-haired wizard from [Fang Blood Shadow] wearing a blood-red wizard robe stood up and asked in a deep voice.

In the hall, other wizards also set their sights. Everyone was waiting for Mitchell's answer. The value of five magical witchcraft would make even a second-level wizard go crazy. No wonder everyone reacted like this.

"Do you think it's necessary for me to lie?"

Mitchell chuckled. Among the six third-level wizards in the Dark Territory, he was known to be gentle, so he didn't care about the red-haired wizard's offense.

"Sorry, Lord Mitchell, I was too excited!" The red-haired wizard's heart skipped a beat and he quickly apologized.

Mitchell smiled calmly and said softly, "Alright, let's go back and prepare. The competition will be held in the underground arena in three days. Anyone who does not show up at the specified time will be deemed to have automatically given up."

After saying that, Mitchell turned into a ray of light and disappeared from the podium.

"Five magical witchcraft weapons are actually used as rewards for the competition!" As Mitchell left, everyone in the hall started talking again. Corun's face was surprised, but he was slightly excited in his heart.

"But... why?"

Enzo hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly: "Now that we are on an expedition, why did the academy suddenly summon conqueror wizards from all over the country and hold a competition with magic weapons as rewards?"

"I can't control this!"

Kelun'en's eyes flashed and he said solemnly: "Anyway, I must get the reward of the competition. If I can have a magic weapon, I can face the Son of the Forest on my own next time!" "

The five magical witchcraft weapons as rewards completely ignited everyone's ambitions. Wizards who can choose the path of conquerors are a group of proud beings. Almost everyone thinks that they are strong enough to become the winner of the competition!

Among the people in the hall, even though Enzo was one of the few who could remain sane, he still had a desire for the magic weapon.

After a while, everyone in the hall left one after another.

The competition will be held in three days, and everyone needs to prepare. Corun and Belika also left the hall, not knowing where they were going.

"Long time no see, Enzo."

There were not many people in the hall, and when Enzo was about to leave, a fiery red figure walked up to him, it was Myrcella.

"It's indeed been a long time, Princess Myrcella!"

Enzo smiled and said hello. The two had not seen each other for more than ten years, but the experience of fighting side by side on the ghost ship still left them with a sense of friendship.

"Come on, come and go for a walk with me!"

Myrcella waved, with an undoubted domineering tone in her tone, then turned around and left the hall, heading outside.

Enzo hesitated and followed.

…

On the empty road, there are green lawns on both sides. The air is a little cool, and the sunlight casts down from the sky, making it look particularly gentle.

"...You mean that Dean Froslai has confirmed the existence of the Tree of Aira and had a brief confrontation with it?"

The two figures walked side by side on the road. Listening to the information revealed by Myrcella, Enzo couldn't help but have a look of solemnity on his face.

"Yes, that's right!"

Myrcella nodded slightly and said quietly, "You should understand the meaning of the fourth-level life form without me having to say more."

"If we don't deal with the Akiela Tree, we will never be able to complete the expedition!"

"The academy already has a plan?" Enzo's eyes flashed, and his thoughts changed.

"maybe……"

Myrcella murmured, then shook her head and said, "As far as I know, Dean Froslai convened conqueror wizards from all over the country to hold a wizard competition in order to select the strong ones among them and form a team. A team of wizards!"

Enzo's eyes flickered, but his face showed no emotion.

Through a brief exchange with Myrcella, he had solved a doubt in his mind, that is, why the academy suddenly held a competition. The reason was precisely to select strong people to form a wizard team.

"Could it be that there is a special task that requires the top experts among first-order wizards to complete?" Enzo thought to himself.

"After the competition, the strongest will form a wizard team." Immediately afterwards, Myrcella continued, "There is a secret mission that requires a wizard team to perform!"

"What kind of mission?" Enzo asked with a thought.

"I don't know the specific content of the mission." Myrcella shook her head and said, "But it seems to be related to the Tree of Elqira!"

"Is it related to the Tree of Aira?" Enzo was slightly surprised.

Things are indeed not that simple. Dean Froslai summoned Conqueror first-order wizards from all over the country, not only to hold competitions, but also to select strong ones to form a wizard team.

The purpose of forming the wizard team is to complete a secret mission related to the Tree of Elqira!

"What kind of tasks must be completed by selecting first-level wizards?" Enzo was a little confused. If the academy really wanted to complete certain plans, why not just send some second-level wizards, but go through a lot of trouble to select them through competitive matches? member.

"The secret mission seems to require crossing the Iron Wall Fortress and heading to the territory of the Children of the Forest." Myrcella saw Enzo's confusion, so she explained, "If a second-level wizard is sent, it is likely to attract the children of the Forest. Pay attention, so only first-order wizards can form a team."

"So that's it..." Enzo murmured to himself and nodded thoughtfully.

All the doubts seemed to have been answered. Since the special mission required crossing the Iron Wall and going to areas controlled by foreign races, in order not to attract the attention of the Sons of the Forest, only first-level wizards could be sent.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Suddenly, Enzo raised his head and asked. The information Myrcella had was all precious information. If we follow the principle of equal exchange in the wizarding world, Enzo should be rewarded.

"It's nothing, just think of it as returning a favor to you."

Myrcella shook her head and said, "I owed you once when I was on the ghost ship. I always wanted to repay it, but I didn't have the chance. Today's information will be treated as interest."

"I don't remember what happened more than ten years ago. In fact, you don't need to care." Enzo chuckled and touched his nose.

"We, the people of the Red Castle Kingdom, will never owe our friends any favors!" Myrcella said with a serious face, "You should think carefully about the competition. Although the rewards of the magic weapon are very tempting, the special ones after The mission may be dangerous!"

"Thanks, I'll consider it."

Enzo nodded, but he had already made a decision in his heart. Since ancient times, interests have always been accompanied by danger.

Any magic weapon can greatly improve his strength, so even if he may face dangerous special tasks in the future, Enzo still decides to do his best to achieve results in competitive games.

The writing has been getting worse and worse recently. Next, I plan to sort out the plot and try to make the story as exciting as possible.
