Lord of Arcane

Chapter 515 The Companion Brothers Competition Begins

Soon everyone was seated. The three main seats were Princess Shia, and the representatives of Yeerlan and Comanthor, while the second seats on both sides were seated by the seven big Orums including Iolum. Warlock, and a dwarf, two elves.

As a high-ranking person, naturally there is no need to say much, and it is already very good to show up. This arcane competition is hosted by a senior arcanist named El Carmon.

After introducing himself, El Carmon, who looked like a kind old man, started the official opening of the snowmelting competition:
"Mages of Netheril! Friends of the elves and dwarves who came from afar, in response to the strong request of Comanthor, this snowmelt competition will increase the number of participants from the Comanthor side, and the competition format will also be adjusted. "

As soon as the voice fell, there was silence. Except for the only twenty or thirty ordinary people who didn't know about these situations, mages basically knew what they should know.

However, because there was a grand arcanist present, and the speaker was also a senior arcanist, no one made a fuss. Xia Duo always felt that the atmosphere in the arena was a bit weird.

He hadn't found the reason before, but now, he realized that it was because it was too quiet here.

When Xia Duo was on Earth, he also went to the games. Whether it was basketball or games, the scene was always very lively. Even in the quietest time, there would be a "buzzing" background sound.

It was the voice of the audience whispering. Although one person's voice was very small, when there were more people in the venue, the voices became more lively.

But here, the ordinary people who can sneak in almost dare not show their atmosphere, and the spellcasters are worried about the great arcanist above. Even if they want to speak, they will send messages through spells, or cast a one-way sound-proof enchantment.

This made the venue very quiet, just the sound of breathing and the sound of clothes swinging. Even after Xia Duo's bloodline awakened, his hearing improved a lot and he didn't feel noisy.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is even quieter than writing in the study alone.

Of course, this does not include the voice of the contest host, the Arcanist El Carmon.

"The friendship between the Nethers and the elves has a long history, and there have been hundreds of snowmelt competitions." El Carmon, standing next to the battle platform, talked eloquently, telling the history of the Nethers and the elves.

There are many books on the history of Nether, but Xia Duo listened very seriously, not to show in front of the great arcanist, but because El Carmon told a lot of details about the interaction between the Nether and the elves.

This is what Xia Duo didn't know before, for example, there were elves who sacrificed their lives to save the village of the Nethers, there were also Nether mages and elves who fell in love, and the Nethers defended Yeerlan against the invasion of the eastern orcs, etc.
The official statement must have been processed to some extent, but it can generally be seen that Netheril's friendship with Yeerlan was good at first.

Yes, the friendship between the Netherese and the elves here refers specifically to the Netherese and the Yeerlan elves, not Comanthor. For Comanthor, the description given by El Carmon is-the friendship of Netheril Partner.

But for Ye Erlan, it is - Netheril's mentor and blood brother.

As for the dwarves, because there were indeed dwarves, El Carmon also mentioned in passing—friends and neighbors whose friendship is as solid as a rock.

In the audience, Xia Duo, who has received political education, can probably hear the deep meaning in El Camon's words, but Niya and more human spellcasters are mostly immersed in this beautiful diplomatic relationship.

On the contrary, elves, perhaps because of the depth of thinking brought by language, they can understand better than humans. Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh, apart from systematic education, this thing probably only needs time to slowly improve.

After casting the sound-proof barrier, Xia Duo asked Niya, "The elf of El Faran was also there, but El Carmon didn't mention it. Did you hear anything about El Faran in Gilles Tower?"

Niya tilted her head and thought for a while, and finally shook her head, "No, if there is any news, it would have been spread long ago."

This is true, and there is nothing to keep secret. If there is any news, it should be spread. If there is no news, it should be the problem of Erfaran.

While the two were talking, El Carmon had already introduced the thirteen high-ranking people who sat in the first and second seats.

In the first place, apart from Princess Shia, the two elves are representatives of Yeerlan and Cormanthor Crowned King, and they are both high-level mages.

On the second seat, the seven Xiaduo from Netheril's side already knew about it, and the remaining three were a dwarf wearing armor and carrying a hammer, except for the two high-level elf mages.

El Carmon's introduction to him was—the Holy Hammer Warrior of Danzo Kingdom.

"Niya, have you heard of Hammer Warrior? Don't dwarves have mages?"

The Tower of Time has very few records about dwarves, maybe Xia Duo didn't find it, but it was indeed the first time he heard about the Holy Hammer Warrior. If there is a Holy Hammer Warrior, will there be any Golden Hammer Warrior, Mithril Warrior? Hammer Warrior or something?
"Of course the dwarves have mages. The Holy Hammer Warrior is actually a mage. The Holy Hammer Warrior is a special title used to refer to people who are comparable to great arcanists on the dwarf side."

Seemingly feeling that this explanation was inappropriate, Niya continued, "There are also mages who specialize in spells on the dwarf side, but they are very few. Most of them also practice martial arts, similar to the swordsingers on the elf side."

So that's the case, Xia Duo nodded subconsciously. From this point of view, only Netheril does not have this kind of combat profession assisted by magic.

Anyone who has a bit of magical talent has become a mage. Xia Duo couldn't understand the necessity of this kind of profession for a while, but adhering to the principle of "people have it, I must have it", magic warriors and the like can still be used. all at once.

In fact, Simon and others in Xia Duo's territory have the potential to become magic warriors, but their auxiliary magic is not cast by themselves, but the magic scroll provided by Xia Duo.

Xia Duo's original intention is to arm a group of ordinary people with magic to the extent of fighting against spellcasters. The future vision is probably the very popular spellbreaker in a game.

Seriously speaking, shouldn't the so-called magic warriors be lawbreakers in theory?

All kinds of thoughts were turned around, and the prologue of the snowmelt competition was over, and the competition officially began——

The first thing to start is the traditional event [Spell Showdown]. There are 10 players from each of the three parties. In the past, when there were only Netheril and Yeerlan, there were also 10 players, but everyone had to fight against everyone on the other side.

After all, the source of the snowmelt competition is Master Yeerlan's guidance to Master Nether. Of course, there should be as many competitions as possible.

But this year, with the addition of Comanso, the form has changed.

As far as Nether is concerned, it is first to pick an elf mage from Yeerlan to challenge, then Yeerlan challenges Comanthor, and finally Comanthor challenges Netheril, and so on.

Each caster only needs to compete two times, challenge one and accept the challenge once.

As for the ranking, it is also different from the past. In the past, it was a round-robin match, and it was just a matter of winning, and it was counted as the caster's personal ranking.

But this year, the individual ranks of spellcasters are no longer compared, only the ranks among countries are counted. In the [Spell Showdown], only two complete victories of the three parties can be considered victories, and the one with the most victories is of course No.1.

The lowest is also No.3.

It seems that they are a lot more friendly, but the meaning of competition is stronger.
