Age of Wizards: I can analyze everything

After listening to Gu Lin's words, Yin Guang glanced at her expressionlessly and did not respond.

Gu Lin didn't care and said with a smile: Besides, your cousin and Pei Ze are now senior siblings, and they have a good relationship. Even for your cousin's sake, you have to treat Pei Ze better. .”

As soon as these words came out, Yin Guang finally couldn't maintain his expression, his cheeks twitched, showing a constipated expression.

Gu Lin laughed secretly.

The Gu family and the Yin family have always had a good relationship, so the young people from the two families are familiar with each other and occasionally interact with each other on weekdays.

As far as Gu Lin knew, Yin Guang had secretly regarded Pei Ze as a strong rival since he was beaten by Pei Ze in the freshman trial. He tried his best to surpass Pei Ze and did not hesitate to enter the house of an elder of the family. The wizard spent some time in seclusion in the tower.

As a result, when he came out of the wizard tower, he learned that Pei Ze had killed the legendary knight.

Gu Lin still remembers that Yin Guang's expression was particularly wonderful at that time.

However, she could also understand that after all, the person she had worked so hard to cultivate to surpass suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, and the gap between her and herself not only did not narrow, but instead widened.

This gap between ideal and reality will hit anyone deeply.

What?

You asked her why she knew Yin Guang’s expression at that time?

That's of course because she told Yin Guang the news herself!

In addition to this, Gu Lin also knew that Yin Guang had a good impression of his cousin Yin Xue.

Therefore, Yin Guang was naturally a little unhappy with Pei Ze, a man whose talent and strength far exceeded him, and who was also very close to Yin Xue.

Just as Gu Lin was thinking about whether to tease Yin Guang some more, he suddenly caught a glimpse of several people walking towards him from the corner of his eye.

After seeing the leader's face clearly, the girl curled her lips secretly.

Yin Guang also noticed the visitor and frowned unabashedly, showing an expression of disgust.

Long time no see, Yin Guang. I heard that you went into seclusion some time ago. What happened? Did you gain anything?

The leading young man came to Yin Guang and greeted him with a smile.

Yin Guang snorted coldly: You will know if you have a fight with me whether you will gain something or not.

That's a good suggestion. The young man squinted his eyes and smiled, Then make an appointment and let's go to the duel field to compete.

In just a few words, the tension between the two was so strong that others could clearly see it.

The surrounding wizard apprentices calmly distanced themselves from the two of them.

A younger wizard apprentice curiously asked the senior student next to him: Who is that person? Why does he seem to have a bad relationship with Yin Guang?

That's Meng Kai from Shadow Academy. His brother Meng Wei and Yin Xue from our academy are recognized competitors.

The young apprentice suddenly understood.

Meng Kai didn't pay attention to the comments around him and turned to say hello to Gu Lin.

Long time no see, Gu Lin.

Gu Lin responded nonchalantly.

The Meng family is a blood family as famous as the Pei family. It is at loggerheads with the Yin family, and its relationship with their Gu family is not much better.

Besides, Meng Kai was arrogant, so Gu Lin always looked down upon him.

Meng Kai didn't care about Gu Lin's disregard. He looked up at the light screen high in the sky and said, I heard that an apprentice named Pei Ze from your college participated in the competition this year?

Yin Guang snorted coldly: Asking even though you know clearly.

Meng Kai chuckled and said: I heard that Pei Ze is a first-year student like you, but he has killed the legendary knight. He must be very strong. I suddenly look forward to his performance in this trial.

These words were clearly meant to praise Pei Ze, but anyone could hear the strong sarcasm in Meng Kai's tone.

Apparently he didn't believe the rumors were true.

Gu Lin rolled his eyes and suddenly said: From your tone, it seems that you don't believe that Pei Ze can get a place in the competition?

Meng Kai smiled and did not answer the question, but showed an undisguised sarcasm on his face.

Gu Lin saw this and smiled: How about we make a bet on whether Pei Ze can get a place in the competition!

As soon as these words came out, Meng Kai and Yin Guang were both stunned.

Meng Kai frowned slightly and stared at Gu Lin's expression for a few seconds, wondering why she suddenly proposed a bet.

Yin Guang also frowned and quietly gave Gu Lin a communication technique.

What are you planning?

Nothing, just making some extra money.

.Do you really believe in Pei Ze?

Yin Guang was very puzzled by Gu Lin's plan.

Even if Pei Ze has a record of killing legendary knights, so what?

Among the wizard apprentices who participated in the trial, those with the same or even greater strength could not be counted on two hands.

Not to mention that there are geniuses among geniuses like Sang Fan, Meng Wei and Su Shouhai.

Pei Ze's hope of getting a spot in the competition is really slim.

How did Gu Lin get such confidence in Pei Ze?

Gu Lin did not answer Yin Guang's question, but looked at Meng Kai with a faint smile and said, How about it, do you want a bet?

Meng Kai glanced at her and then at Yin Guang. He seemed to see something from the latter's expression. He suddenly felt certain in his heart. He narrowed his eyes and said, What's the bet?

Gu Lin put one hand on his hips, waved the other hand vigorously, and said boldly: Five hundred magic stone coins!

hiss!

Suddenly there was a sound of inhaling from all around.

The wizard apprentices who were eavesdropping on the conversation between the two took a deep breath.

Did they hear it correctly?

Five hundred magic stone coins?

This is enough to buy a lower-quality first-level witchcraft!

For many wizard apprentices, this is an astronomical amount of money!

Meng Kai's expression froze.

Although he is highly regarded in the family and is allocated a lot of resources on weekdays. His brother Meng Wei also provides financial support from time to time, but it is not easy to come up with 500 magic stone coins all at once.

This is almost equivalent to his entire net worth.

Hey, you can't even afford this little money, right?

Gu Lin said in a longer voice, and the volume was extremely high, attracting more people's attention.

Sensing the strange looks from the people around him, Meng Kai couldn't help but curse inwardly. The Gu family members were indeed vulgar nouveau riche!

With a cold snort, he simply agreed.

Okay, I'll bet you five hundred magic stone coins!

He couldn't believe it. How could a wizard apprentice who had just been promoted for less than three months surpass many veteran wizard apprentices who had accumulated experience for many years?

Seeing Meng Kai agree, Gu Lin's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and he immediately made a contract with Meng Kai.

With the constraints of the contract, there is no fear of the other party going back on their word.

Yin Guang watched the whole process and shook his head secretly.

Although he didn't know where Gu Lin's confidence came from, he knew that Gu Lin would probably lose.

Although Pei Ze has outstanding strength, in this kind of trial where elites gather, there are many outstanding people. How can Pei Ze stand out?

If this trial is postponed for a few months and a half, and Pei Ze is given some time to grow, maybe he can still get a place in the competition.

Now.

Yin Guang shook his head.

Forget it, Gu Lin had plenty of money anyway, so losing five hundred magic stone coins wouldn't be a big deal.

As the bet between Gu Lin and Meng Kai spread quickly, the crowd stirred up a stir. Many people were frightened by the astonishing bet of up to 500 magic stone coins, and there was endless buzzing.

The name Pei Ze quickly attracted the attention of many people.

Countless curious or scrutinizing eyes focused on the picture where he was.

As if passing through a thin film, after a slight flash of consciousness, Pei Ze found that he was already in a spacious corridor.

The entire corridor is about ten meters wide and nearly eight meters high. The walls, floor and ceiling on the left and right sides are all made of blue-gray rocks.

A torch was hung every five meters on the walls on both sides. The dim yellow light of the fire was constantly shaking, and the halo reflected on the walls and the ground was also bright and dark, adding a bit of eternity to the corridor.

Pei Ze looked back and saw that the door of light had disappeared, leaving only a thick wall.

After calming down, Pei Ze took out a long sword and held it in his palm, then stepped forward.

The rules of this trial are simpler than the previous freshman trials.

Especially since there are no rules against killing other participants.

Either prohibited or allowed.

In other words, killing is allowed during the trial.

However, considering that everyone is issued a teleportation ring, which can leave the maze instantly when activated, which is equivalent to having a life-saving prop, it is not easy to kill other participants.

Having said that, allowing killing will undoubtedly increase the intensity of the trial to a higher level.

despair! despair!

The sound of Pei Ze's footsteps echoed in the corridor, but there was no other sound.

Pei Ze didn't walk fast, he seemed to be walking slowly.

He was in no hurry.

The rules have long said that even if you get the iridescent gem in the center of the maze, you must hold it until the end of the trial.

So even if someone gets the camouflage gem first, don't worry, just grab it when the time comes.

The Morning Council set this rule, which obviously encouraged the participants to fight with each other.

At the end of the corridor is a corner to the right.

After passing the corner, there is another long corridor, more than a kilometer long.

Four to five hundred meters away, more than a dozen thin figures were wandering in the middle of the corridor.

With pale bones, broken leather armor, rusty weapons, and soul flames swaying in their eye sockets, they are the most common skeleton soldiers among undead creatures.

Pei Ze was not surprised. Since it was a maze, it was normal to arrange monsters.

The Dawn Council would not just let a group of participants fight against each other, but would always add some other difficulties.

Soon, the skeleton soldiers discovered Pei Ze and immediately rushed towards him.

As cannon fodder among undead creatures, skeleton soldiers are not very powerful in combat.

Any trainee knight can pick off four or five skeleton soldiers.

However, after getting closer, Pei Ze found that the appearance of these skeleton soldiers was somewhat unusual.

Their exposed bones had a faint sheen of jade, which seemed to have been strengthened.

After actually getting his hands on it, Pei Ze confirmed his guess.

These skeleton soldiers have indeed been strengthened to some extent, and their combat effectiveness is no less than that of junior knights.

However, this level of combat power is still not enough for Pei Ze.

His thoughts moved slightly, and the gray robe on his body shrank instantly, turning into a close-fitting hunting suit that was easy to move around.

Then, without even casting a spell, he rushed forward with his sword, chopping all the skeleton soldiers into pieces like vegetables and watermelons.

Pei Ze continued to move forward with broken bones on the ground.

When you reach the end of the corridor, you will see a fork in the road, with two paths extending to different stone chambers.

The heavy stone door is closed tightly, and the scene behind the door cannot be seen.

Pei Ze paused, a look of deep thought on his face.

The most troublesome part of the maze, apart from the countless monsters, is the intricate roads and rooms.

Originally, places like the maze were most beneficial to wizards specializing in prophecy.

Wizards of the prophecy school are not good at attacking or defending, but they have a large number of detection and exploration spells, which are most suitable for navigating mazes.

However, those who participated in the trial were all wizard apprentices and had basically never been exposed to serious prophecy spells.

Among the spells they have mastered, there are only a few detection and detection spells that can be used in the maze, such as detecting secret doors, detecting magic, and detecting undead, which are really not very useful.

So except for a few wizard apprentices who have trump cards, most people can only explore the maze honestly.

Fortunately, Pei Ze happens to be one of the few people who has the trump card.

As he thought slightly, the black bracelet on his wrist instantly collapsed, and a fog crow flew out of it, splitting into two waves and flying towards the two paths on the left and right, hitting the stone door like a cannonball.

Immediately, two loud booms were heard almost at the same time, the stone door suddenly opened, and the fog crows rushed in.

Not long after, the sound of fierce fighting came from both rooms.

Through his contact with Wu Yu, Pei Ze quickly learned about the situation in the room.

There are more than twenty enhanced skeleton soldiers wandering in the room on the left. Apart from the stone door through which they entered, there is no other exit. It is obviously a dead end.

In the room on the right are three bugbears.

Bugbears are a subspecies of the goblin family and belong to the category of goblin-like creatures.

They are burly, more than twice as tall as ordinary goblins, and have ferocious temperaments.

Adult bugbears generally have the strength of an intermediate to advanced knight level.

A few elite individuals can reach the level of peak knights.

However, in front of Mist Crow, whose average combat power surpassed that of a peak knight and almost reached the level of a great knight, these three bugbears couldn't even sustain a single encounter and were torn into pieces.

Mistcrow then discovered a passage deeper into the room.

Pei Ze raised the corner of his mouth slightly and walked toward the room on the right.

Passing through the stone door deep in the room, Pei Ze came to a long corridor again.

There was nothing on the spacious corridor, and it looked empty at first glance.

I don't know how big this maze is.

Looking at the kilometer-long corridor, Pei Ze's eyes flashed slightly.

Considering that the trial lasts only seventy-two hours, the maze should not be that big no matter how big it is.

The key is to find the right path to quickly reach the center of the maze.

After gathering his composure, Pei Ze continued to move forward.

Walking on the empty corridor, he felt like he was alone in an empty place.

But this feeling was soon broken.

There was a harsh sound of breaking through the air steeply above our heads.

Without thinking, Pei Ze ducked forward and the strong wind blew past his back and hit the hard ground.

Immediately, a click was heard, the ground cracked, and gravel splashed out like bullets. It hit Pei Ze's gray robe with a crisp sound like hitting metal, and sparks flew everywhere.

As soon as Pei Zefu stood up, he slashed behind him with a backhand sword, faster than lightning.

The feeling of cutting flesh and blood soon came from the sword blade.

A burst of piercing screams suddenly sounded, piercing people's eardrums.

Only then did Pei Ze have time to look at the attacker's appearance.

It was an ugly monster that looked like a humanoid creature at first glance. It had a long and narrow head, a small and strong gray body with spots, and extremely slender limbs. It looked like tentacles made of multi-jointed cartilage, and the ends were like Spiny flesh pads that open like petals.

Throat monster!

A name instantly appeared in Pei Ze's mind.
