After bumping into the villain boss [Western Fantasy]

In fact, Linton had submitted the direction of the magic principle to the organizing committee.

But no matter what kind of vocabulary and categories are submitted, such as "magic principle", "magic array diagram principle", "low-level imitation principle", "bare-hand imitation principle", etc., after submitting, the answer is "inside the direction". The likelihood of inclusion is too high to accept this choice of direction."

So Linton, who was completely clueless and thought that he had no way to choose the large range of basic classes, scratched his head and chose the medicine that he was better at.

It wasn't until the time of choosing the subject before the start of this competition that Shenmu Qianjian had a feeling of enlightenment when he looked at the three cards with clearly marked attributes.

——The range of selecting a certain category is indeed too large. It is specific to a certain category, plus specific calibration attributes, and then the range can be delimited by the number of attributes.

This is indeed a way.

It's a pity that you can only change the choice of direction after you have completed the competition in all three directions. Before that, or if the competition in the three directions has not been completed at all, there is no way to change.

However, it is not a mistake to use special means to catch a topic that you are good at.

Linton stood quietly at his position, hearing the start of the second round of the match.

Continue to follow the routine process, that is, announce the topic, judge the formula in your heart, and then the staff will get some of the ingredients needed for the formula. The host and the two contestants chat and laugh, and the competition officially begins——

Linton walked down from the beginning to the end in a serious manner, with a serious expression, and he completely lost the idleness of yesterday.

Although it's a little hard to see because of the fact that he rarely smiles.

Then, when the game was about to start, Linton subconsciously reached out and touched the headband tied on his small lock of hair. There was a feeling that all the blood in the whole person had cooled down and froze in the ice, but he was extraordinarily awake. a feeling of.

The only thing left in my mind is the topic of this competition.

"Analyze the special magic array of light and dark attribute conversion left in ancient times, judge the principle of the magic array, and modify it into an alchemy magic array. Using the magic array that I improved as the core magic array, refine a usable alchemy product .”

And the many places that are a bit dim, the image that is blurred due to years of acquaintance or the immersion of time.

This question is a bit difficult, so the whole competition is divided into a scoring system, and every time there is a little actual gain, one point will be gained.

Linton took a serious deep breath, took out a blank piece of paper and placed it in front of him.

The game officially begins.

The pale quill quickly began to slide on the paper.

"The upper left corner of the magic circle A to be analyzed contains signs that the prototypes of Vasily's No. 2 magic circle and No. 3 magic circle have changed side by side."

"The right side of the magic circle A to be analyzed is a little bit to the right, and there are about two fingernails where the delicate lines have been erased. It can be inferred from the direction next to it that this is a magic circle that adjusts balance and suspends magic power. "

"Under the magic to be analyzed, there should be a special magic array that regulates the magic power and condenses it so that it does not disperse..."

Linton silently calculated faster and faster in his heart, and his mood became more and more excited. There was a feeling that a long-lost door was opening towards him.

This feeling is very clear, so clear that it seems to be dreaming.

Linton subconsciously stroked the headband that tied his hair again, feeling that his thoughts were clearer than ever before.

It's like the self who was already very good at alchemy before, but in fact has been dreaming about alchemy all the time.All the knowledge I have learned is just the most superficial nightmare, and I have never seen the sleeping god lurking in the deepest part of the dream, smiling and giving rewards to the world.

And after getting the hair tie given to him by Allen, Linton finally successfully bribed the God of Sleep to create the most realistic dream full of knowledge.

...Thinking of this, Linton couldn't help pursing his lips.

This is definitely not just an ordinary hair tie to help calm down, it is definitely a good thing.

That guy Anlan...Why did he give it to himself so lightly?

His fingers subconsciously sketched twice on the notebook in front of him, and then he suddenly realized that his hands were empty. Linton took out a small pen from the table next to him, and then took out the usual method used in various alchemy defenses. The drug "peace liquid" that exists in the slow-release agent is not particular at all, and the pen is dipped in the peace liquid, and it is carefully carved on a piece of parchment used for drafting.

A complex magic circle quickly took shape.

Compared with the magic circle shown before, which had been partially damaged, the one in Linton's hand had at least 9 loopholes fixed, and it seemed that it had changed from its humble appearance to almost perfect.

He used his fingers to outline the magic circle again, making sure there was nothing wrong with it, and then focused on the two most troublesome ones.

These are two obvious blanks, like cutting out the protagonist's face and the curtain behind the scene on the most perfect artwork, which looks weird and discordant, exuding a strange smell.

Linton closed his eyes and began to consider: "It's weird and discordant. This is not the result of the invasion of the forces belonging to the direction of the Dark God as I thought..."

Because this area on the original version of the magic circle is more like corrosion from the inside than the aging of the years, Linton initially thought it was the remaining will of the Dark God, which caused the dark attribute magic power in this special magic circle to have a corrosive effect. The magic circle corroded.

This is a very normal thing. The soothing and calming effect in light magic, as well as the consistent purification effect when used on items, are the influence of the remaining will of the light god on light attribute magic.

This is a change to all lower-level magic, or to imitate the nature of the world after an attribute has developed to the extreme and has a god position.

"What caused it?"

Linton frowned and struggled for two seconds, and quickly realized that this difficulty was more difficult to break through, so he decided to solve the other easier part first, and then consider other

Another problem is the piece of curtain that was cut off - the magic pattern on the outermost balance and stability collar of the magic circle has been corroded, and it needs to be filled in according to the previous law of the magic pattern.

Linton stretched out his hand and began to think about the rules, and wrote down a group of combinations on his hand, and soon got a clue.

"Light dark light, balance, dark light dark..." After thinking about the rules seriously, Linton filled the outermost periphery of the magic circle and returned to the core part.

----

At the same time, another contestant on the other side, Rod Mandela, Linton's senior, was also conducting his own research.He is a very thin looking boy with a height of about 170 and a very pale complexion.

Of course, his original complexion has always been so pale to almost blue, it all depends on the facial features themselves to set off his appearance.

Compared to Linton, Rhodes' movements were slightly faster than Linton's, and he quickly processed the incomplete magic circle to the point where only two joints were left to complete it.

Then another gap was filled, and the two fell into the same gap.

However, unlike Linton who has always been thoughtful and had vague ideas in the previous questions and kept trying various ideas, Rhodes seemed to have fallen into a dead end at the last gap. As in the past, I kept modifying the details in one direction.

But when calculating the final magic power operation, he felt failed again and again.

No, no, neither.

How is this possible?

The pupils were almost shrunk to the size of a pinhead, and Rhodes confirmed and denied it over and over again in his heart, his heart beating so hard that he was about to suffocate.

He can no longer lose. In the last match, he finally chose what the opponent is best at. Before that, he was too confident. He only paid attention to a few opponents he thought he had, and he didn't even study the opponents in the previous match. , The good direction of that sudden dark horse.

Therefore, he has already lost a game completely, and he lost in the carelessness.

Like the kid on the opposite side, he has no way out.

Once again in his heart, he repeated the deduction of the new direction of the original thinking, and once again declared failure, Rhodes suddenly raised his hand as if he had confirmed something.

"Referee, I raise doubts."

The eyes of the audience all focused on Rhodes, looking at him with embarrassment and pride.

Embarrassed by the current high-profile environment, proud of——

"I think there is a problem with this question itself, and its original magic circle should be unqualified."

"It only set a small amount of harmony magic and elemental magic when drawing the magic circle, which caused the natural conflicts of the elements to not be appeased. Just such a small blank area can't do too many things, and it will inevitably lead to collapse Phenomenon."

I am proud that I discovered the loopholes in the temporary questions given by the contestants.

This is not impossible. After all, this style of improvising questions is prone to errors and mistakes, especially those that tend to solve problems.

The audience fell into silence. Everyone was staring at Rhodes, at the referee who stood up after hearing these words, and at Linton who seemed to have heard nothing but was still concentrating on his calculations.

"Unfortunately..." The referee, who was wearing this silver magic robe that symbolized an alchemist, and a level 7 alchemist qualification badge on his chest, stood up slowly.

He was already a little old, and he applied two amplification magics to himself to make sure that what he said could be heard by the audience.

"Your judgment was wrong."

Rhodes frowned, and a black shadow flashed in his eyes: "Why do you say that my judgment is wrong? This magic circle is obviously coming in the direction adjusted by light according to its attributes. No one in the world understands it better than me, because I was born to be the owner of this contradictory magical attribute."

Two beams of color suddenly appeared behind Rhodes.One is a pure white light that occupies the air, conspicuous but not harmful to the eyes.The other is as dark as night, an indistinct black light that covers an entire area.

He was born with three magical attributes, two of which were completely opposed, which led to Rhodes' poor physical condition since he was a child.His face was pale all day long, not to mention lack of nutrition, he was even constantly judged by the pastor that he would not be able to live to adulthood.

It is precisely because of this that Rhodes believes that no one understands the conflict and reconciliation between these two attributes better than him.

A hint of surprise flashed in the referee's eyes, but he suppressed it quickly and shook his head helplessly.

His gaze was stable and kind, as if he was staring at a descendant with amazing talent, so he was somewhat coquettish, and he said in a tone that belonged to an older grandfather: "This magic circle can indeed be established. There are already people in the association. It is a complete and complete version, otherwise we would not be able to use it as a test question."

"Of course, if you have no way to unlock it, you can also do it according to the most suitable method in your ideal. As long as you can use it as a basis to make a complete alchemy artifact, even if there is a mistake in the middle, it will only deduct points. The value of failure depends on how strong or weak you are compared to your opponent."

The expression on Rhodes' face was blank for a moment, he took a step back, and the aura of elemental magic exuding from his body became stronger and stronger.

"No, it's impossible, it's impossible, there must be something wrong with you..."

"I figured it out." At this moment, Linton suddenly spoke, interrupting Rhode's broken voice.

The blond boy glanced at Rhodes worriedly, then at the complete magic circle he had just completed in his hand, and spoke hesitantly.

"It doesn't have to be adjusted... The fundamental goal of this magic circle is to transform, although the core part of the inner magic can already complete this point. But in fact, we can use the goal of transformation to fill in the blank space."

"So, the other broken areas don't follow our inherent logic! What they form is a circuit, not an effect!"

Linton glanced at the map in his hand. The direction of the magic power was already outlined with complete golden and black lines. There would not even be an extra collision, let alone deal with the problem of hedging.

"It forms the circuit, not the effect..."

When Rhodes heard this, he was stunned in astonishment.

He chewed this sentence over and over in his mouth, the more he thought about it, the more panicked he felt, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt unbelievable.

"This this……"

The referee sighed softly.

Originally, the exchange of income between the two parties was not allowed under such circumstances, but since Linton was so open and honest as to give his harvest to the opponent, and he was helping the association - it was impossible for the association to directly send a complete answer, the referee had no choice but to acquiesce ton's behavior.

"Player Rhodes, you..." Continue.

Before the referee could utter the remaining words, his eyes suddenly opened wide.

In front of him, countless muddy dolls popped out of the two magical powers originally released by the opponent to show the conflict of attributes.

These clay puppets have different appearances, but their facial features are strangely consistent.

They all have green hair and green eyes, but their faces are painted with colorful oil paint, which looks varied and extremely distorted.

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee……"

A clay puppet smiled softly.It has long dark green hair, strewn with straw, and light green eyes with bloodstains.

Just looking into those light green eyes, one can feel a strong sense of malice.

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee..."

The other clay puppets also laughed, and they scattered and floated in mid-air, looking at their masters in unison.Their voices were hoarse and dry, like decayed saws squeaking on planks, or old kitchen knives slicing blood on bones.

"Hee hee, hee hee." Rhodes also smiled softly, his voice was as dry and ugly as a clay puppet, completely integrated into the ensemble of the clay puppet.

"I lost, how could I lose?"

"I'm the one who wants to take the first place. It's understandable to accidentally lose once, but how could I lose here?"

"No one is better at the principles of light and dark magic than me, but I..." Rhodes suddenly opened his hand and raised his head.

There was nothing where the pupils used to be, leaving only the bloody eye sockets.

He rose up like a puppet being held up by something, with both arms stretched and hung high, still making an ugly laugh.

"O favored one of the Dark God."

Blood and darkness suddenly erupted.

----

"Boom, boom, boom,"

"what sound?"

The butler inherited from generations of the Edsick family is quite good at keeping the whole family in order. Mrs. Pombal, who has a slight perfectionism, frowned and looked at the floor above her head suspiciously.

Then, recalling where she was, her eyes suddenly turned straight, that was Edsik's treasure room!

Damn it, is it because some of the newly recruited maids have dirty hands and feet, or is there some daring thief who dares to come to the Edsick family to steal things?

Mrs. Pangbell immediately hurried to the study, and opened the door of the treasure room swiftly.

There were no extra people inside.

Mrs. Pompbell exhaled, but suddenly found that the clay doll enshrined in the center of the God of Light was gone.

— Gone!

Her pupils contracted again.

An enlarged painted clay puppet face suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. There was an obvious crack running from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet. Blood and tears flowed from the eyes of the originally holy clay puppet.

This this……

Mrs. Pompbell managed to control her screams.

Yet another scream was heard.

"Duke! Duke! Why have you fainted!"
