The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark

Tolan was somewhat disappointed by Manna's answer. After thinking for a while, he didn't need Manna to ask, so he explained by himself:

"My lord, do you know why I, a bounty hunter with no backing at all, can take a lot of people under my command in such a short period of time?"

"…………"

"Okay, I knew you wouldn't support me. In fact, before I took over that messy bounty hunter group, their leader died, and the death is said to be quite miserable, so it's a mess now, and I naturally don't mind. Just be a box for loose sand, but the death of their leader should have something to do with Rhodes Island."

"Ok?"

Hearing Tolan's words, Manna's expression became a little puzzled. He knew that Rhodes Island has always maintained the principle of not affecting the situation in any region itself, so logically speaking, this kind of thing should not have anything to do with Rhodes Island. What is involved is, but why...

Immediately afterwards, Tolan gave an explanation:

"According to my investigation, the one who killed their leader was also a bounty hunter, but he is no longer doing it now. It was an Argore woman named Skadi, who was called the 'Walking Scourge'. Now, she should be Working in Rhode Island."

As soon as these words came out, Manna breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was not related to Rhodes Island itself, but at the same time, he also had new doubts:

Why do the people on Rhodes Island feel so outrageously strong?

Chapter 760 The prelude to the top sixteen

Time flies very fast. Rather, whenever you usually have nothing to do, you will find that time passes far faster than you think.

Phoenix has a deep understanding of this. At this time, he is sitting on a small bench in the backyard of Linguang's house, yawning boredly, while watching the training process of Linguang and Shining.

During the preliminaries of the Special Championship, he came here every day. He first acted as the doctor's guard for the whole morning, then made lunch and came to Guang's house to see them, and then accompanied them to the pre-competition training, which was both fulfilling and boring.

However, today his boring life will come to an end, because the preliminary stage has come to an end, and the singles competition is about to start competing for the top [-]. At that time, Phoenix will usher in his first in the special championship. Opponent, I'm a little excited after thinking about it.

It's a pity that the knights who participated in the solo competition are not allowed to participate in the team competition, otherwise Phoenix would have gone to the Red Pine Forest Knights at Yanwei to have fun.

As for Linguang, who is also a player in the solo competition, because he does not have the extraordinary combat power of Phoenix, he has been training harder recently. Phoenix hit.

In fact, Zofia originally wanted Manna to come over and be a target, but he seems to be busy with work recently, and he often leaves early and returns late, so there is no way to block people, so he can only let it go.

"clang!"

"Very well, Linguang, your reaction speed is fast enough, but it still takes a little time to get used to it."

Seeing that Linguang successfully blocked his two consecutive slashes with the spear and sword in his hand, Shining smiled affirmatively, and at the same time retracted the long sword into the scabbard in his arms.

Hearing Shining Ling's praise, Linguang took a few breaths, and said quite modestly:

"No, if it's only at this level, then I think it's not enough to face those powerful opponents in the special championship. They are the strongest group of people in this city right now."

"Hey, it's good to know that it's good to urge yourself, but if it's just ignorant urging, it will actually hurt yourself. You are also an adult. You don't need me to remind you of this kind of thing?"

"Don't worry, Shining, I know it well."

After saying this, Linguang turned his head to look at Phoenix who was sitting on the bench and snoozing with his tail in his arms, a soft look flashed in his eyes, and then he shouted:

"Xiao Fei, come and help me with my training."

"Huh? Oh, here we come."

When his name was suddenly called, Phoenix was stunned for a moment at first, but then he reacted immediately and quickly got up to take the position of Shining's 'trainer'.

Probably due to hesitation about the unreasonable strength of Phoenix's origin stone skills, Linguang has been using Phoenix to train his spell resistance and breaking skills during the preliminary round these days.

Although at the beginning, Linguang was always in a weak state of being frozen to death within a few minutes, but relying on his experience and understanding as a reload operator in Rhodes Island for many years, Linguang managed to improve himself miraculously The tolerance for Originium skills is as strong as a generation of daughters of destiny.

So, since he had tasted the sweetness, how could Linguang let go of this opportunity to train and be alone with Phoenix, so naturally he should increase his strength and do more quickly.

Standing on the training ground, Phoenix took a look at Linguang who was ready, and without making a sound to remind him, he just waved his hand fiercely, and large ice crystals began to form and spread rapidly.What followed was the same biting cold wind as on the Ursus Ice Field.

"call--"

A strong cold wind quickly swept across the entire backyard. Although Phoenix had restrained enough to prevent it from spreading to more areas, most of the buildings and various decorations in the backyard were covered with a large number of frost flowers.

As for the plants and so on, as early as the first time Phoenix trained Linguang's spell resistance, a large part of them had been frozen to death, and only some plants in the corners barely survived.

Zofia originally wanted to transplant some more vegetation, but Linguang's training didn't stop for a day, so the transplant plan has been put on hold until now, and the originally good backyard has always maintained the pitiful condition that was invaded by the cold wave. appearance.

The moment the cold wind blew out, the spear and sword in Linguang's hand pierced fiercely into the ground in front of him, and then a layer of translucent light shield appeared around him.

Different from the attack-oriented light source stone skills awakened in Texas, the light source stone skills passed down from generation to generation in the Linguang family are more omnipotent.

You can attack when you advance, you can defend when you retreat, and you can also make a temporary cameo as a medical operator to recover from injuries. It can be said to be very strong.

However, omnipotence does not represent all specializations, but simply dabbles in all, and the direction of bias depends on the individual.

For example, Maria, who likes to study all kinds of equipment, uses origin stone skills that are biased towards auxiliary types, which can help her resonate with some special equipment that requires spells to activate, and can also help her defend to avoid injury.

As for Linguang, as a person who changed from a knight of glory to a heavy equipment operator in Rhodes Island, what he is most proficient in is actually how to use his own spells to attack, and the second is support.

And what she has to do now is to use Phoenix's spells to raise her auxiliary defensive ability to a higher level, even if it's just a short-term temporary cramming.

The opponents in the special championship are not the original corruption and withering. The pair of Sarkaz twin knights can be compared. In order to ensure its own mobility and attack power, it is impossible for Linguang to continue to wear the equipment of heavy operators to compete, so Defense can only be supported by Originium skills.

The cold wind continued to invade, even with the protection of Originium skills, Linguang still felt that his body temperature was dropping sharply. The beads of sweat that hung on his hair from practicing duel with Shining had frozen on his hair now. You can feel the coolness when you put it on your face.

But Linguang didn't have time to think about this right now, she only saw her tightly grasping the handle of the spear and sword with both hands, trying hard to maintain the light shield around her body, trying not to let it break due to the too low temperature.

However, judging from her slightly trembling arms, it seemed difficult.

It's not that Linguang can't hold it anymore, it's the human body's instinctive reaction when encountering low temperature, which also means that even though Linguang has blocked the direct damage from the Phoenix spell with the light shield, the changed ambient temperature is still Her most difficult point to overcome.

The light formed by the spell is not sunlight, it cannot provide a large amount of heat like a flame to temporarily balance the cold air outside, this is why Linguang has been passive under Phoenix's spell, just like Tallulah back then, It's too rambunctious.

However, even if this is the case, Linguang has no intention of giving up, just like what she has been doing these days, she just keeps protecting her whole body with the light shield, completely ignoring the ice crystals that have gradually spread on her body.

"Ugh…………"

Seeing Linguang's approach, Phoenix sighed helplessly, and took the initiative to stop the release of Originium skills. Seeing Linguang holding his spear and sword, he kept exhaling hot air, and took the initiative to say:

"Sister Linguang, you are only defending against the direct attack of spells, and using your body to resist the changing low temperature, so what is the difference between you and the Ursus army training your body's anti-freeze attribute now? This is completely deliberate crippling yourself .”

"But... I really can't think of any way to deal with it."

When Phoenix said this, Linguang scratched his head a little ashamedly, and then began to do warm-up exercises on the spot to warm up his body.

Linguang is indeed right, temperature is, in a sense, an unsolvable problem for Terra today.

To completely isolate the conduction of temperature, it must be a vacuum environment, but how could there be living people in Terrarium who can live in a vacuum environment safe and sound all the time.

Therefore, if you want to beat Phoenix, there are only three ways:

The first one is the simplest, sneak attack while it is unprepared;

The second is to practice absolute magic attainments, to be able to compete with the low temperature environment it creates;

The last one is to reach the level of the so-called physical resistance to absolute low temperature, just like Ursus strong men can play snow wrestling shirtless. It's not that they are not afraid of the cold, but that they have cold resistance to the cold.

Undoubtedly, Linguang chose the last one, wanting to practice the terrifying state of physical resistance to magic.

"emmm..."

After knowing the other party's thoughts, Phoenix is ​​naturally a little speechless. Although Linguang is a Pegasus, she is only a Pegasus. Looking at the entire Terra, Phoenix has seen people in his life who can resist spells with their bodies harmless. , There are only two people in total.

One is protected by the artifact 'Levantin', his old friend Sylter in his previous life.

The other one is the last pure-blood Wendigo Patriot. After all, it is a terrifying existence with a magic resistance of 90 thanks to the blessing of old equipment.

These two races are undoubtedly related to the mythology. On the other hand, Linguang, the level of Pegasus, in a sense, may not be as good as the unicorn Alice who was tricked into working in Rhodes Island. ?

Therefore, Phoenix directly rejected Linguang's whimsical idea:

"In short, if your next training, Sister Linguang, is to train your body to resist freezing, then I will absolutely not train with you. I will do what I say."

"This... well, okay."

Phoenix didn't agree, and Linguang couldn't force it, so he could only agree with a little distress, and began to think about how to change the corresponding policy in the next step.

"Okay, let's go here for training first, there is news."

At this moment, Zofia suddenly came out of the room, raised the communicator in her hand while talking, and signaled Phoenix and the others to look at a form displayed on it.

"Sister, what is it?"

"At this stage, what else is relevant to you, the order of the competitors from 32 to [-]."

After saying this, Zofia also walked to the side of the crowd, tapped her fingers, and quickly found the location of Phoenix and Linguang, and then frowned:

"Tsk... there is a problem."

"What's wrong?"

"Although the two of you are not in the same group, it is unlikely that you will meet before the final, but...Xiaofei, you and the blood knight are in the same group, and the position is far away, but you just happened to meet in the semi-final before the final. ..."

When she said this, Zofia seemed to have decided that Phoenix could easily enter the semi-finals. Although she was right, she thought that Phoenix would meet the champion of the previous special championship in the semi-finals. This year's favorite to win the championship or something, her mood is terrible.

However, after hearing Phoenix's words, Linguang didn't show any worry. Instead, he looked at Phoenix beside him seriously, and said:

"Then, see you in the finals. Then I will have a good fight with you, Xiao Fei."

"okay, I get it."

For Linguang's invitation, Phoenix naturally had no reason to refuse. After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, looking very happy.

After seeing the actions of these two people, Zofia covered her forehead with some headaches and said:

"Xiao Fei, I know you are very strong, but you have to be careful. As the champion of the two consecutive special championships, the Blood Knight was once evaluated as the person who is most likely to surpass the 'Black Knight' at this stage. Although you are also a champion and a titled knight, you only entered the championship wall as a championship champion, and your subjective resume is far inferior to that of the blood knight."

"It doesn't matter, everything is played out, and it will be good to see Zhenzhang under my hand at that time. Having said that, who is my first opponent?"

"Oh... you, I really can't control it... Your opponent in the top sixteen is a knight named Spike Knight, who is said to be a knight who can make good use of two extreme melee weapons, a big sword and a dual-wielding dagger at the same time. He didn't appear in the individual competition of the Special Championship, he should be a rookie, he won't be too difficult to play, but..."

"Just what?"

"After finishing the round of [-], your next opponent in the round of [-]...is Candle Knight."

........................

--at the same time--

"Your next opponent in the quarterfinals is the 'Ice Knight', Lone Wolf."

"Is that so, the Ice Knight..."

In the premium box of the Grand Championship, Viviana was standing by the window with the spokesperson McGee watching the game. It was obvious that they were alone in the same room, but the two still maintained a very, very polite, even somewhat The distance exceeded is at least three meters...

After talking to Viviana about the opponent's situation, McGee saw the other party's face suddenly appearing a little lonely, and quickly comforted him:

"No, Ms. Drost, I think you may have misunderstood the 'Ice Knight' to a certain extent. There is no doubt that he is strong. Those who can reach the title of Great Knight are definitely not ordinary people, but the outside world has a lot of misunderstandings. There are many deified rumors, and perhaps some of them are not true."

"No, McGee, you need to know one thing..."
