Versatile Mage: I have a proficiency panel

Chapter 92 The journey begins

Apas woke up from her hazy sleep, turned over, and quietly pressed against the familiar and warm body. She squinted her eyes comfortably, but sleepiness took the opportunity to run away.

"wake up?"

The soft question in her ear startled her eyes and it took her a long time to react to the other party's question. She nodded and asked, "Did I wake you up?"

"No, I'm used to meditating instead of sleeping, so there's naturally no such thing as being woken up." Bai Jue stretched out his hand to smooth Apas's messy long hair. Her hair was as soft as silk, with the warmth and faint fragrance of early summer.

"It's almost time now. It's time to get up. I'm worried about you after you stayed in the meditation room silently for more than a day."

"Well... Big brother, do you think our relationship should be exposed?" Apas stood up and slowly put on white stockings in front of Bai Jue, as if she was seducing him again.

According to legend, Medusa possessed a beauty comparable to that of the goddess Athena. As the first-generation daughter of Medusa, Apas indeed perfectly inherited Medusa's perfect beauty like a work of art.

"It's up to you." Bai Jue didn't care about other people's eyes. This kind of thing certainly didn't matter to him.

"Oh, I thought I could tease you with this." Apas said with some regret.

After resting and enjoying himself in the ancient capital for half a month, Bai Jue took Apas and said goodbye to everyone. With the support of the Parthenon treasury and various channels, he was no longer short of resources. He only needed to practice and improve his skills step by step before the Sirens launched a large-scale attack and the Queen of Royal Bones appeared.

In addition, Bai Jue plans to use this time to see the scenery of Kyushu and even around the world, and taste some delicious food. After being busy for so long, it's time to enjoy life.

The first stop, Bai Jue was going to go to the Trace of Tianshan Mountains, but he went to the northern border first, ready to see the body of the sacred totem Azure Dragon, the Great Wall of this world!
…………

Zhenbei Fortress City

This is a city with a very long history. It used to be called Zhenbeiguan, but now it has been built into a special border fortress that integrates a fortress, a magic market, and a residence.

The market is completely inside the entire fortress, and the fortress is surrounded by thick iron barrels and has very large front and rear towers. It looks very majestic and majestic, with a bit of majesty and solemnity!
Likewise, it is also part of the Great Wall.

The entire city is surrounded by the high walls of the fortress. To the north of the fortress, there is a very ancient section of the Great Wall. Its old stone body winds through the yellow land and high slopes, and stretches to the east and west, forming a magnificent and solemn, undulating ridge barrier, protecting the Central Plains behind it.

"Is this the Great Wall that you, big brother, admire so much?" Apas stood on the wall and looked into the distance.

“It doesn’t feel as solid as I thought it would be.”

Compared to human physique, the Great Wall is indeed magnificent and extremely difficult to climb, and it is strong enough to resist the invasion of countless armies.

The problem is that this only works for ordinary people. It is very easy for a real magician to flip over, not to mention those monsters that can jump ten to twenty meters in one leap.

Such a stone Great Wall could easily be trampled and smashed by demons. I don’t know how it has been preserved to this day.

"This is a part of the body of a most powerful totem. Even if it is driven by the simplest spell, it can be like an insurmountable chasm." Bai Jue closed his eyes and felt it. He possessed the memory of the ancient king, so he naturally knew all the spells to drive the city wall.

"The most powerful totem?"

"An existence at least one level higher than Khufu." Bai Jue said.

But is it really so? Without the dragon soul in the little loach, he can only control the body of the Azure Dragon and cannot awaken the Azure Dragon.

"We came at a very good time. There are wild beasts trying to attack the city, but the scale is too small, so the ancient Great Wall should not be needed."

After Bai Jue finished speaking, it took a long time before the demonic aura appeared in the distant sky. Apas was surprised at Bai Jue's broad perception. If so, his spiritual realm must be very high. Could it be that her Medusa's Eyes did not work because the gap in spiritual realm was too big?

As Apas was thinking, the military mages in the fortress had already started to act in an orderly manner, and at the same time began to clear out the irrelevant personnel in the fortress. Bai Jue's identity as a seven-star hunter master made them qualified to participate in the battle and watch.

The wild beasts from the northern border are approaching. They are a tribe led by several leaders, most of whom are generals under their command. Their strength should not be underestimated.

"Sentinel Mage, be alert and attack!"

At this time, the commander's cold and calm voice echoed over the entire Zhenbeiguan Fortress City.

The sentry towers are distributed in different locations, and their orientations are very particular, forming the corners of an octagon. There will be fifty destruction wizards guarding each sentry tower. When they cast the same elemental magic at the same time, the entire octagonal sentry formation will be activated!
"Wind Horn Eight-Point Formation!" The commander's voice sounded again.

In the octagonal sentry tower, the sharp green light of wind lit up, and the air in the entire loess land suddenly became thinner. Wind patterns flew up one after another, reflecting in the sky above the entire octagonal sentry tower, forming a circle. A huge picture of shocking wind with an octagon as its outline!
"Huh? These should all be intermediate-level magic, right? How come the power has become so great?" Apas was surprised. She has been learning magic from Bai Jue for quite some time and knows all the basic rules.

"Overlay formations are used here. It's not time for you to learn it yet. When your magician skills reach a high level, I will tell you." Bai Jue took out a specially made camera and took pictures of this small-scale war.

This superimposed formation is the most powerful and effective magic formation in the war. Super-class mages and high-level mages are still small in the total number of mages. Even if a large number of primary-level and mid-level mages form a bombing effect, it is often difficult to cause substantial damage to some thick-skinned and high-defense monsters. The superimposed formation absorbs the magic power and star maps of all the magicians at the formation points, stacking them into a powerful magic that has increased its power by who knows how many times!

"Cyan Hurricane!"

In the octagonal sentry formation, a military leader shouted loudly, and then the giant green magic formation began to disappear gradually. It was replaced by a coiled wind dragon. It expanded from a hundred meters square at the beginning to nearly a thousand meters of loess in a short time. The young shallow water dragon transformed into a dark yellow sky dragon!

The wind was raging wildly, and the wind disk formed by the superimposed formations was nearly a hundred times larger than the skills cast by ordinary mid-level magicians. Its power was almost comparable to that of a super-level magic!

The extremely powerful wind magic swept the wild beasts into the air, making them lose their direction, dizzy, and finally slamming down to the ground!

Even the sky was covered with yellow dust, and the ground was lifted up several meters. Most of the wild beasts were killed or injured in an instant!
"Fire Team, Pool of Fire!" As the commander's order was given again, all the fire mages in Zhenbei Pass quickly stepped out and began to draw the map of the Fire Star.

One by one, the flame fists flew down from the city wall of Zhenbeiguan, like small flames shattering, hitting the loess land heavily.

These Fiery Fists attacked in a relatively dense area, bombarding and burning the wild beasts in the front. Soon all the Fiery Fists pits were connected together to form a huge pool of charred flames!

In the pool of earth, the flames burned each other and became more and more intense. The wild beasts were in the pool of fire, their hair was singed, and then they exploded like dead wood, howling in pain!
"Bombard freely!" The commander's order was issued again.

The mages obeyed the order and used the power of elements as the main force. The sand and rocks rolled on the ground, the fire fists, hurricanes, and lightning flew in the sky, and floods and ice chains appeared out of nowhere, sweeping away murderous auras...

The wild beasts in the northern border were covered in blood and flesh, and they began to show signs of defeat and escape. They couldn't even get close to the city wall!
Then the summoned troops appeared, a moon-white light flickered under the city gate, forming an extremely bright book of moonlight. The leaves of the moonlight book kept turning, and many dimensional summoned beasts descended from another dimension. The city gate that was empty not long ago was suddenly filled with summoned creatures that were extremely strong and powerful.

The summoned creatures formed a real vanguard unit. The summoning mages sat on their respective summoned beasts. These people had certain melee capabilities. The coordination of magic and summoned beast mounts allowed them to not be restricted on the battlefield and to be able to advance or retreat!

There aren't many summoning mages in number, but their strength has always been considered the elite of Zhenbei Pass. Especially since they have been fighting with the wild beasts in the northern border all year round, the summoned beasts here are often more brave and powerful than those in other places!

“Follow me!” The leader was summoned to the front of the team. The creature under his crotch was a majestic wolf beast with flame patterns all over its body. There were charred flame shadows following as its four hooves flew!
The remaining wild beasts in the northern border were being blown dizzy by the magic of wind, and in the blink of an eye they were besieged by this dimensional summoned beasts. It wasn't long before they were all wiped out.

Most of the fighters in this small-scale war were mid-level wizards, who were not as numerous as the wild beasts. The only high-level wizard was the leader of the summoned troops, but they wiped out all the monsters.

“Is this the wisdom of mankind? Even if the monsters are strong enough to fight alone, humans can still defeat the enemy with fewer people after some arrangements.” Apas sighed. Humans do have their merits in being able to occupy large tracts of land in the world.

“But this is only limited to low levels. Facing demons above the monarch level, excluding a few people like me, to fight back you need at least a team of mages of the corresponding level.” Bai Jue shook his head.

"But the cycle of human powerhouses being born is much faster than that of demons. It only takes a few decades for a talented human to reach the super level, while it takes demons thousands of years..."

"Take myself as an example. As a demon, I am already a very talented being. After only a few hundred years of practice, I became a great monarch. But I was suppressed by you, who has practiced less than a fraction of that." When Apas said this, she looked at Bai Jue with some resentment.

“It’s no exaggeration to say that I’m definitely the most gifted person among humans. There may be someone who can match me in talent, but his opportunity level cannot catch up with me. It’s just you who are so unlucky to have met me, an outlier that only appears once in a thousand years.” Bai Jue smiled and ruffled Apas’ hair.

"Maybe I'm lucky..." The girl muttered softly. She thought Bai Jue didn't hear her, but in fact he heard it clearly.

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

After bidding farewell to the northern Xinjiang, the two drove to the vicinity of Tianshan Mountains.

Pan Town is located at the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain. It is very different from some other special post stations. It is because the relatives of those missing people in Tianshan Mountain are looking forward to their return and spontaneously built wooden houses in a river belt at the foot of Tianshan Mountain to live in, which gradually formed villages and towns.

Later, those who wanted to go to the Tianshan Mountains also went to Panzhen in search of supplies and convenience, and developed it into a southern starting point for the Tianshan Mountains. Hunters, explorers, mercenaries, and students came one after another. , Experiencers crowded this town.

There are not many local people here, most of them are outsiders.

"This town is really big, not much different from an ordinary small city. It's even more lively than the magic markets in many cities I've seen before. Is Tianshan so popular?" Apas was a little surprised. Isn't it said that Tianshan Scar is a restricted area? Why are there so many people here?

"The Tianshan Mountain is so big, and it is divided into many layers according to different altitudes. Among so many mages, almost no one goes to the top restricted area. There are also many treasures in the other levels. Moreover, the heavy snow that closed the mountain has begun to melt, so it is naturally lively." Bai Jue explained and looked around.

In fact, the layout of magic markets in various places is almost the same, the only difference is the things sold.

"So we are here to hunt for treasure too?" Apas tilted her head, inadvertently revealing a hint of charm.

"To enjoy the scenery." Bai Jue stretched lazily, "Let's find a place to stay first. Don't rush up the mountain. Let's learn more about the situation first."

By the way, wait for 'Bai Jue'. When visiting such a dangerous place, of course you have to take safety precautions.

The current location of 'Bai Jue' is in Helai Mountain.

…………

On the Helai Mountain, ten thousand meters above the sky, there is a vast expanse of sky.

Bai Jue looked down. The wind from the northern border swept across the Helai Mountain. The chestnut-colored sky veil slowly rolled up, slowly covering the magnificence and beauty of the Helai Mountain, making it hazy...

Sand and dust swept across, and on one side were towering rocky mountains, each one looking like a solemn and solemn mountain fortress of different heights, towering and guarding.

On the other side is a steep slope that suddenly sinks, with obvious faults that have been split open like miraculous workmanship. Complex sand ditches, stone valleys, and gravel rivers are entangled between the faults and steep slopes...

The wind blew through the mountain lines left behind.

Water, eroded through the ravines formed.

At the moment when the sky was covered, the grooves on Mount Helai gradually became clear.

These grooves are connected together like an eye, and the ridges are the eye sockets...

For tens of thousands of years, it has been gazing at the sky quietly!
