Lance immediately thought of Pound's "magic pattern".

Of course, this was the only thing left in Lance's mind since Pound left yesterday.

So Lance intuitively thought of another speculation.

Could it be that the real master behind Pound is the second prince's family, who is now the successor to Emperor Hestry?

This speculation is more likely than the funk option.With such a capable person as Pound, if he had to obey someone in the empire, apart from the current Emperor Hest, there was nothing more reasonable to Lance than the second prince's family.

It's just that if this is the case; Lance felt a chill in his heart, which means that the possibility of transferring Pound's magic pattern to himself is already impossible.He thinks that the Potts family has impressive financial resources in the empire, but if they are facing the second prince of the orthodox royal family and the military family Walder who is known to have a close relationship with the second prince, Lance knows that the Potts family can only stand aside.

Thinking of this, Lance's eyes sank a lot, and he stared at the cart behind Pound unconsciously.

But looking at it, Lance's eyes lit up again.

Because, he found that he had made a major common-sense mistake.

If Pang De was the magic-weave servant under the second prince's command, he was not qualified to ride in the second prince's exclusive imperial cart!

The direct royal family is more particular about the car ride, the title, etc. than the general nobles.One of the regulations is that masters and servants have different cars.Those who can ride this kind of cart must be the family members of the second prince or honored guests.If Pound was a magweave servant subdued by the lord, he would never have received such treatment, and he cooperated with the guards beside the cart to salute Pound respectfully; he even treated Funk as a guest, which further proves this speculate.

Lance regained his spirits.Come to think of it, Pound probably accepted the second prince's commission for some kind of treatment because of his light ability.Just like after the assassination of Potts, there were also some nobles in Pandexi who heard the news and sought medical treatment from Pound.That's why the second prince's family treated Pound so courteously!It must be so, there can be no mistake!

Lance, who was in a mood of ups and downs, naturally didn't notice it. In fact, there were also many envious and jealous eyes around Pound, focusing on Pound.Everyone knew in their hearts that if they could establish a relationship with the second prince at this moment, they might become one of the close ministers directly under the new Emperor Heshi in the near future.

***

The competition between the four academies, as mentioned earlier, is for five representatives from each of the four academies, a total of [-] contestants, to draw lots at random and match each other to compete for the championship all the way to the final. .Twenty representatives will go through the first competition and be eliminated into ten representatives; after the second competition, they will be eliminated into five.The remaining five contestants who stand out from the crowd will conduct a sudden death match by drawing lots to obtain tickets for the semi-finals.

The so-called sudden death match refers to the assumption that five players A, B, C, D, and E are shortlisted. When the first sudden death match is held, two players will be selected from the five to compete; After B wins and D is eliminated, in the second sudden death match, A, B, C, and E will draw lots again, and two players will be drawn, and the sudden death match will be played again.Until the end, when there are only two representatives left, it means that this year's competition will be fought for the championship by these two remaining representatives.

Although there is a bit more luck in the latter part of the sudden death match mechanism, if there is no strength, no matter how lucky it is, it is still impossible to win by fluke in the final semi-finals, so there is still some credibility.It's just that this kind of competition mechanism has created this magic competition at the same time. Except for the champion, the runner-up and third runner-up other than the champion, there is no special situation of importance at all.

This means that there will only be one hero.

Under such a background, apart from the reputation of the academy, the contestants are more concerned about their own glory.

Because in the largest magic arena in the entire empire, if there is an outstanding performance, the many noble families watching the battle in the guest seats will soon come over with a lot of gold coins to win them over and talk in detail.At that point, the winner can hold his head high and proudly choose the owner who offers the best.Therefore, the college magic competition is also regarded as a fast way to get ahead.

It's just a way to become famous quickly, and the risks are high.You must know that there is a winning side in the game, and there must be a losing side.In the past competitions, there are also many young people who participated in the competition. Under the watchful eyes of the public, their performance was not as good as expected, and their losses were ugly.The originally prosperous and bright future was immediately ruined. No matter how good their performance in the academy was before, it would be a thing of the past.

Therefore, this competitive competition not only tests the magical abilities of the contestants, but also tests the composure and alertness of these young people under tremendous pressure.This is also one of the important reasons why many aristocratic families are willing to take the time to come here and choose capable retainers or cronies.

But Pound is not a representative of the academy, and the above is none of his business.

After the opening routine oath and speech, the contestants were brought to a high platform to draw lots for the first competition.Pound, as the treatment backup of Logner Academy, was gathered together with the light magicians of other academies to start the next work assignment.

According to the traditional practice, the game needs to set up a rescue team to protect the lives of young players.Even in accordance with the rules of the game, as long as one party shouted the word "admit defeat" to determine the outcome of the game, the winner would be scored.Under normal circumstances, the game is not very life-threatening, but sometimes the situation is so fast that there is no chance to shout (or if you are too hard to shout), at this time, a rescue team must intervene in the game. To protect these talented young players.

The members of the rescue team were previously composed of rescue personnel sent by the four colleges.However, the light-type magicians who support each session have their own strengths; some are proficient in healing and some are proficient in protection, so the most foolproof way is to have four people work together when there is a need for rescue, with all four shields in place. On the rescue target, most violent attacks can be successfully blocked (after all, this is only a competition for college graduates).

But things seem to have changed this year.

Just when Pound listened to the staff's explanation and was distracted to use the "Meditation Link" to observe the strength of the elements carried by the contestants, an aged voice of protest drew Pound's attention back.

"...The quality of the healers sent by certain academies is getting worse year by year! What does this mean, thinking that as long as you send a random light department over, you can get over it? Isn't this increasing the workload of others for no reason! This attitude of ignoring rescue must not be encouraged! After the game is over, I must formally report this situation to the four colleges!!” An old man was very dissatisfied with the cooperation plan just explained by the staff.

Feeling the malicious gaze, Pound looked at the aggrieved old man, but at this moment there was a young man on the side; seeing that he was about five or six years older than Pound, he choked first with a very bad expression, "What do you mean!? What? The quality is getting worse every year!? Since I am a healer assigned by the academy, it means that I have the ability to rescue! Do you think that the ability of light is also related to age? Indeed, older people need more frequent treatment therapeutic activity."

This is a bit big.After all, older age means more experience, and the ability to use elemental magic should be more flexible.

The faces of the two old men present all changed when they heard the words, and Pound discovered that the age groups of therapists sent by the various colleges this year were actually divided. The gray old man.

Pound glanced over their robes. The two old men were Saint Laurent's prayer meeting and the treatment of the glorious Saint Doane; the one who spoke harshly earlier was the one from Saint Laurent.The old man of Glory Sheng Duoan, although his face was not good when he heard the words, he was quite calm and just watched the changes.

The old man at the Saint Laurent chanting glared back angrily, "Your Excellency didn't name you, why are you so anxious to sit down! Guilty!?" Pang De raised his eyebrows when he heard that, and said that, it meant that he was the one who was going to scold him just now. "But look at how crazy you are!! Okay!! Let's try it!? You don't know how to be so arrogant!! Let's see what confidence you have to be so arrogant!?"

The young man from Fernandez was also fearless, and said forcefully, "It's uncertain who will win and who will lose! Please enlighten me!"

The old man from Saint Laurent sneered at the proud young man, but his eyes drifted past Pound unkindly. "I don't dare to teach you, but this rescue, I suggest, let's take care of each other!"

"What do you mean?" The young man froze when he heard the words.

"Since Your Excellency is capable of rescuing, there is no need for four of us to take action together, which will reduce your demeanor. If Saint Laurent's representative is in danger during the competition, I, Saint Laurent, will heal him! But if Phil What's up with the Nandes players..." The old man from Saint Laurent sneered.

Hearing this, even though he was young and energetic, the young man from Fernandez changed his face a little.The duels on the field were the best young representatives of each academy. The young man couldn't help hesitating and said in a stiff tone, "This is not something we can decide in private. It involves the competition mechanism. It has to be done." Schools..."

"Hmph, just admit it if you're afraid." The old man from Saint Laurent interrupted the young man, and continued to sneer, "After all, the reasons you put forward cannot be used as an excuse at all! Originally, the rescue mission was left to the rescuers to decide after discussion. You can’t get in the way of assigning someone else. Am I right, Your Excellency?” The old man turned to the staff member who was explaining.

This staff member is only a co-organizer sent by the Magician Association, no one dares to offend, he wiped his sweat, and Nuonuo said, "Indeed, indeed. How to rescue, the competition respects the discussion of healing magicians sent by various colleges decide later."

The old man added complacently, "So, if you don't have self-confidence, just admit your mistake and let it go. Otherwise, it would be a pity to harm the representative of your court..."

The young man who was still hesitant was so excited, his face turned red again, "I don't know how strong your school is, but our school representatives don't need rescue! But good, as you said, each is responsible!"

"Then, what is your opinion, Lord Rosen?" The old man turned slightly restrained to the old man who represented the glorious Santo An.

At this time, Rosen, who was honoring Santo An, turned to look at Pound, "It also depends on whether your Excellency of Rogner College agrees?" This answer seems to be unwilling to be a villain first, but it also reveals that he agrees to rescue alone confidence.

Saint Laurent's old man then turned his gaze to Pound, "Oh, I forgot about this lord,...but since you can be honored by the second prince as the guest of honour, you must be able to deal with it?"

Only then did Pound somewhat understand the origin of the malice radiated by the old man. Sure enough, the cart that Gonza insisted on using for him was too "popular".

Pound nodded lightly, "Your Excellency praises it. If everyone else agrees, I have no objection."

A cunning flashed in the eyes of the old man, and he agreed with a wave of his palm, "That would be great!"

***

At the same time, another cart with the family emblem of the Second Prince hurriedly headed for the "White Hall".

It's just that it also had the same family crest, but this cart was blocked at the gate of the "White Pavilion" for a long time before it was released.

Ten minutes later, Joseph slowly stepped into a living room near the outer door of the "White Hall".

"Father!! You must listen to my explanation!!" Berlin Gonzal jumped up impatiently from his seat when he saw Joseph.

Joseph just sat on the seat of honor with a blank face and ignored it.He took the tea from the old steward, picked it up, and asked after a pause, "What kind of tea is this?"

The old steward bowed slightly, "Sir, this is fragrant tea. Your Excellency Ge Ya said that this tea has the effect of clearing the lungs, and it is very helpful for people who have been smelling paint for many years. I will let you try it on my own initiative."

Joseph raised his ear, and took a sip with great interest, "It's very fragrant, and it's easy to drink. I'll get more in the future."

"Yes." A smile flashed in the eyes of the old steward, "There are also many kinds of tea. If you are interested, you can try some more."

"Then try them all. Compared with them, my vision seems to be much smaller," Joseph confessed with a smile, until Berlin called out "Father!" anxiously, Joseph looked at his second son indifferently , waved his hand for the old steward to step down.

Seeing that Joseph's gaze finally turned to him, Berlin was afraid of being kicked out in the next second, and hurriedly shouted, "Father!! I am so innocent!! Everything is a coincidence!! If you hear anything! ! It must be framed intentionally by others!!”

Joseph's eyes turned cold, "Then it's up to you to tell me, what should I hear? What did others frame you for?"
