Tan Han didn't quite understand why everything turned out like this.
Was it because of his arrogance on the field, or because of his possessed look in the space of his talent, or was it because he relied on luck to win the first match?
It seems that each of these things is a factor leading to the current situation.
But in Tan Han's opinion, all this started from the time they met in the library, because that incident led to the inability to communicate normally now.
In her opinion, only communication can dispel misunderstandings between people, but now there is no way to resolve misunderstandings.
"Xiao Han, does the bet before the game still count?" Tan Han asked subconsciously, but after saying it, she felt it was inappropriate, so she added, "Forget it, let's not count it."
"Nature counts."
I turned my head and looked at Tan Han. She was very good at retreating to advance by first bringing up the matter and then saying it didn't count. However, if she met someone who was more serious, this method would really not work at all.
"Hmm... I kind of forgot what we bet on. Can you tell me more about it?"
"Why do you keep your distance from me?"
"Well... okay." I agreed with a chuckle. It seems that Tan Han still understands it very well.
I naturally remembered what the agreement of the bet was, which was to tell her the whole story, but this was too much to tell.
Now Tan Han changed the topic and just asked me why I kept my distance from her. It seemed that she understood that I would not tell her everything.
Moreover, the tone of her voice was also very particular. After all, she did not ask me with the attitude of a winner, but discussed with me and obtained my consent. This is different in nature.
This really puts the young lady in a difficult position.
"Because we are not from the same world, this is the most direct reason."
I explained directly at the beginning that this sentence also has multiple meanings. It depends on how Tan Han understands it.
She is a rich lady and I am a poor boy; she is the protagonist and I am the supporting role; she is a genius and I am just an ordinary student.
The last point is a little wrong. I am no longer an ordinary student now. I am at least one of the best among the freshmen.
There is a big gap between Tan Han and me, but I am confident that I will catch up, but not now, just like the gap between the academic genius and the freshman at the beginning, which has now been narrowed by me. After all, catching up takes time.
Even if Tan Han is the so-called protagonist, she is still a living person after all, and I am also a living person. How could a person be trapped by a so-called script?
After all, I just can't jump out now.
If this so-called script is a big chess game of the entire world, then those teachers and even the top leaders of other colleges are the players of this game.
Is it possible that all this will change if I become an extraordinary witch?
So is it possible for me to become an extraordinary witch?
Of course it is possible. I can't always be limited to this world. I also want to see the outside world.
Even if I jump out and play chess not as a player but just as a spectator, I will not be affected by this mess.
What I’m afraid of is that I’ve become someone else’s pawn without even realizing it.
But fortunately, the extraordinary world has the means of resurrection, which is one of the reasons why I can feel at ease.
After all, if a person is not afraid of the threat of death, then there is actually nothing else to be afraid of, unless life is worse than death.
"Is it just because we are not from the same world?" Tan Han asked again.
"Well, you will bring me trouble, endless trouble. Even if you are just kind-hearted, I can't bear it."
"Is this your answer to me?"
"Yes," I nodded.
After all, this kind of thing is easy to understand if you think about it. Just because of a battle with Tan Han, I got into such a big trouble. I had to sign a confidentiality agreement and learn the truth that I shouldn't have to bear at my age.
But what is the return?
So-called college compensation?
Or is it the so-called luck?
I still feel it is far from enough.
But speaking of luck, I looked at the strands of luck around my body, blending into my hair like strands of hair.
This is fate, not what Tan Han thinks it is, but...if you insist on understanding it this way, it seems difficult for me to help her change her mind.
After all, I have no obligation to help her correct her mistakes.
By the way...should I find some time to ask Teacher Ji Niang how to use this good fortune?
I'm a little afraid that this thing will become a puppet string controlling me.
Compared to these illusory fortunes, I still prefer something more practical, even if it is the improvement of my ability to control spiritual vision. After all, the two times I saw Tan Han's spiritual eyes gave me a deeper understanding and control of spiritual vision, which forced me to think in this direction.
"Anyway...thank you for your answer." After getting the answer, Tan Han stood up and prepared to leave.
Although she was also sniffing at the answer I gave, she didn't ask any more questions.
"Can I ask one last question?"
"It depends on what you're asking."
"I want to know... did you really only use the Fireball spell book throughout this process?"
When I heard what Tan Han said, I was stunned. I didn’t expect she would ask this question!
This shows that she has good vision.
"Yes." I nodded firmly.
"How did you do it?" Tan Han asked quickly. It can be seen from this that Tan Han believed it, because she did not say it was impossible like she did the first time, but asked me how I did it.
But unfortunately, Tan Han can't do it now. It's like not taking on a job if you don't have the skills. This is a failure to meet the rigid standards.
"This is the second question. You said you only asked the last one."
"Sorry, I was impatient. Anyway... I won't bother you anymore." Tan Han also realized her own gaffe. She did not ask any further questions, but slightly concealed her embarrassment and looked towards the arena.
"Please do your best in this afternoon's game. I believe you will not be hindered by this kind of difficulty."
"Haha, let me lend you some good words."
……
With the first round of eliminations coming to an end, all 364 contestants finally completed their first game.
The winner advances and the loser is eliminated.
And this big melee in the afternoon is the loser group’s last chance to struggle.
The huge light screen above the arena displayed the upcoming schedule and process.
The countdown to the next game has also begun.
The list of participants for the melee was also announced at this moment.
The free time in between is both the interval between two rounds of competition and the time to rearrange the venue.
After all, this is a melee, and the areas divided into by the arena are not suitable for this melee of 182 people, so they need to be integrated.
Moreover, this one hour is also the time for the last batch of contestants to rest and recuperate, heal their injuries, restore their physical strength, and recover their magic power. The healing potions, recovery potions, and magicka replenishing potions needed for this are all provided by the academy.
The interval is only one hour, so the official start time is at least in the afternoon.
During this period, the sky above the arena naturally would not be empty. The wonderful clips of the first round of games were constantly switching in a loop. After all, the inside of the arena was being broadcast live, and they couldn't just keep filming in an empty arena, right?
It would be better to find someone to sneak into the contestant preparation area to conduct a private interview.
At this point, I stood up and walked to the preparation area. It would have been inappropriate to watch from the viewing area.
My standing up naturally attracted a lot of people's attention, especially the players who were going to participate in the next resurrection match like me.
After we got to the front, the referees explained to us some precautions for this melee.
That is the detail part of the competition rules. The melee allows for collective targeting of such behavior, and also allows the use of alchemical items within the prescribed restrictions.
The criteria for elimination are shouting surrender loudly or losing the ability to resist and act.
At that time, the referee on the sidelines will clear the eliminated players out of the game in a way that does not interfere with the game.
Of course, voluntarily walking out of the designated area or being forced out of bounds is also considered as admitting defeat.
This continues until there are 18 contestants left in the competition.
Of course, in a big melee, there should not be any behavior like "using the strong to protect the weak". If such behavior is blatant and the person admits it, the referee will eliminate him/her, and both the protector and the protected will be eliminated.
It is believed that this big melee will not last long, but it will definitely be exciting.
However, many contestants will also take a conservative approach, after all, jumping too much will lead to being targeted.
"Everyone, if you have no questions, you can enter freely. There is still some time before the start of the game. If you have any questions, you can continue to ask me here."
Following the referees' announcements, the contestants were led into the competition venue. The central open-air arena was not divided into multiple areas, but its area was very large.
There are no clear regulations on the players' positions, so they are free to stand.
As long as you think you can gain an advantage the moment the game starts, it's okay to stand in a corner.
When I entered the stadium, a very magical scene appeared. There was a large vacuum area on the edge of the huge stadium centered on me.
It seems like they are really afraid of me...
But it doesn’t matter. At least this shows that I have the ability to intimidate them even if I just stand here.
Rather than enjoying this feeling, I prefer to experience my own spell book.
After all, I acquired a lot of spell books at once, and there were too many types that I had never used. Compared with these spell books that were too fancy for me, I still loved my fireball and energy shield more.
After all, he is an old friend who I know well, and it is very easy to use. But this does not mean that I will not use other spell books.
You should know that I now have and can use powerful spells that consume 100 points of magic power. Just think about Tan Han's summoning of the Fire Lord. In an instant, red flames spread for thousands of miles and lava surged on the ground.
I guess my... "Protection of Elemental Spirits" should be very powerful as well.
The instructions in this spell book aren't very clear, just a description and steps for use.
After this spell is released, I will gain the blessing of a random elemental elf and be accompanied by a guardian elf that will follow me.
Similar to a combination of a buff spell and a summon spell, elemental spirits increase the damage of spells of the corresponding element type, improve the caster's affinity for the corresponding element, and have additional added damage when estimated.
The description of the protection effect is that it can resist and fight.
The accompanying guardian elves will also autonomously cooperate with the caster to release spells, including attack and defense spells.
It seems to be a spell with very wide applicability, especially for elemental spell turrets.
It's just that "randomness" is a bit of a bummer, as it will greatly restrict the caster's combat style and also require the caster to have many elemental spells as a response.
After all, if you bet wrong, it is equivalent to wasting one hundred magic powers!
I really don't know if this spell book can specify elements after the magic modification?
Unfortunately, I don't have time to study this.
"All contestants have entered the arena. Attention, contestants. There is only one minute left to prepare before the battle begins!"
As the referee announced loudly, the big screen above the arena turned into a one-minute countdown.
At this moment, the auditorium was already full of people, and many of them spontaneously began to count down, with the sound echoing throughout the arena.
When there were only 30 seconds left, the atmosphere in the venue reached its peak, and almost everyone followed the final countdown accompanied by the sound waves.
Well, everyone in the arena was excited and ready to go. In this atmosphere, some even had alchemical items in their hands ready to go.
Some even ignored my intimidation at the moment and walked into my warning area.
"10!...9!...8!...7!..."
“3!…2!…1!”
"Game start!"
Following the referee's loud announcement and the huge whistle of the start of the game.
In an instant, the light of the spell flashed across the entire arena!
The referee was also ready to go, after all, the beginning of the game was also the peak period of elimination.
A sudden sneak attack and surprise attack will be the most deadly attack.
Even I dare not not go all out at this moment. I start with a protective spell to ensure my own safety. The body enhancement of the wristband and the cat-man transformation are alchemical items, so the release speed is also very fast.
These two spells can ensure that I have room to maneuver when facing any attack, and they are also a means of self-protection when being approached.
