151. The Beautiful Lover of Yerkes
In the Green Empire, warriors have actually broken away from their civilian status, and warriors with magic patterns on their bodies are rare in the empire.
For the warrior, if the body is tattooed with magic patterns, it means that he has the ability to control magic power. Only the magic swordsman, the magic archer, and those who have successfully transferred to the senior warrior for the second time can control the fighting spirit in the body.
The so-called fighting spirit is defined by magicians as "attributeless magic" by magicians.
Obviously, Grigori is not a second-turn swordsman in the arena. No lord will send a second-turn strongman into the arena. Any lord who dares to do this will anger the union of those warriors.
After all, the Green Empire was still a civilized society with the highest system. The imperial constitution protected the nobles and also protected the knights (knights with strength and status).
In the Green Empire, warriors who were able to become slaves were usually war criminals in some rebels. These people generally had the status of formal warriors, and some even became transit warriors. After the rebels were defeated, these war criminals became gladiators raised by some lords.
Among the warriors, there is a special existence, namely the magic swordsman and the magic archer who practiced both magic and martial arts. These people did not awaken the magic pool when they were twelve years old. However, when practicing combat skills, they accidentally possessed the magic affinity of some magic elements, and their bodies became a medium for gathering magic elements. Although there was no magic pool to store magic power, they could cast simple spells like magicians. Almost all the magic swordsmen who obtained the magic power increase could crush the warriors of the same level.
The magic swordsman can not only cast simple magic, but also have the power of magical elements on his weapons. The most important thing is that they can draw magic pattern components on their bodies like magicians to greatly improve their combat effectiveness.
Grigori, a magic swordsman who walked out of the iron fence, is such a magic swordsman.
...
He walked into the arena, and the people around the stands burst into warm applause and cheers, and some even threw some flowers and fruits into the arena.
Grigori looked around the stands coldly. When he turned to face us, I suddenly saw a pink scar on his face, which looked like a newly healed wound, cut the corners of his eyes from his temples, cut the bridge of his nose, and stretched to the lower part of his jaw. I thought that if his opponent's weapon was half an inch longer than that, he would have cut half of his head off.
He attached a power-enhancing magic pattern structure to his shoulders, and a magic pattern structure to enhance balance is attached to his chest. These are two primary magic pattern structures. It seems that the magic pattern lines have been repaired several times due to scars on his body, and many lines on the magic pattern structure have become a little blurred.
The scholar Yekis stared at Grigori with great concentration. He held the low wall in front of the private room with both hands and leaned forward, just to see the magic pattern structure of the gladiator more clearly.
"These two magic pattern components increase the 'power' and 'balance' ability!" he said to me.
After watching for a long time, the scholar Yekis breathed a long sigh, then thought for a while and said, "It seems that he is a magic swordsman who focuses on power."
"Gija, you don't have the first magic pattern array, right?" Scholar Yekis asked me.
I was slightly stunned and replied: "Not yet."
The scholar Yekis pulled open his clothes, showed me the inscription composition on his chest, and said to me: "Actually, you should have a set of primary magic pattern composition. Only after you have the first magic pattern composition can you feel more clearly how different there will be and without the 'magic pattern composition', it will be much different!"
Seeing the magic pattern lines surging with magic glow on his chest, I couldn't help but feel a little moved. In fact, I had thought about having a magic pattern array on my lower abdomen like Sister Guoguo, but I never found a suitable opportunity.
I raised my glass and touched Yekis for a moment, and said readily: "Okay! Let me think about what attributes should be needed for the first magic pattern construction. It seems that I can have many choices."
Amid the noisy cheers around, Jekis and I drank the wine in our glass.
The Yekis scholar, holding an empty wine glass, walked around the low wall in front of the stands from the table, and looked at Grigori attentively, while suggesting to me: "Of course! As a level 8 magician, your magic carrying capacity can almost accept the needs of intermediate magic pattern construction. Before you can install the inscription magic pattern, it is best to test the magic carrying capacity of your body."
This kind of thing involves the privacy of the magicians, so Mrs. Alia tactfully sat with Mrs. Cecilia, leaving me and Jekis some private space. She and Mrs. Cecilia were sitting upright on the bench in the private room. From a distance, they only felt that the two of them had a smile and had a close conversation. In fact, only their personal maid and Miss Jenny knew that they were talking verbally.
In such noisy occasions, it is more suitable to say some private things, because the deafening sounds around can almost cover up everything.
I asked the scholar Yekis: "What if I chose an intermediate magic pattern assembly for the first magic pattern assembly? Will it affect my subsequent magic pattern assembly?"
Yekis scholar said without hesitation: "If the first magic pattern composition on your body is an intermediate magic pattern composition, then you will easily face opponents of the same level in the short term. Of course, there will be an impact on the future, which will greatly delay the inscription time of the second magic pattern composition on your body, because your carrying capacity is already serving the first magic pattern composition."
I scratched my head in pain before saying, "So, I suddenly felt that it would be beneficial to delay the inscription in the first magic pattern construction."
The two gladiators on the duel were trying to anger each other with various rude physical movements at both ends of the battlefield, and the supporters of the two gladiators outside the field also began to attack the supporters on the opposite side with words without any scruples.
The scholar Yekis spread his hands and said to me: "This is a matter of person's opinion and wise. It will not be different at first. However, if we look farther away, we will find that the parts of a person's body that can be engraved with magic patterns are actually very limited. If one day, when you become stronger and stronger, you will find that it is a particularly distressing thing to engrave all the magic patterns on your body."
He poured some wine out of the bottle and asked me to add some ice to his cup, and gestured to stop Alia and Cecilia's close maid from coming over.
I asked curiously: "Yekis, what level of great people do you want to be troubled by this kind of thing?"
The scholar Yekis pressed his thumb on his forehead and rubbed it hard, frowned and said, "Let me calculate it... Theoretically... about the level 30 level 3 magician... Oh, they won't... Maybe the level 40 level 4 legendary wizard will have such troubles, maybe it will be like this. I'm not sure, after all, you know that level 3, which is beyond our cognition."
I also felt that it was all illogical, so I said, "Okay! Maybe we should talk to Lord Bruce about these things!"
At this time, the scholar Yekis suddenly said, "You should know now!"
I asked in surprise: "What should I know?"
The scholar Yekis said: "Of course it was my troubles some time ago..."
Some time ago, I was caught up in the midnight wedding storm. I didn’t notice any troubles from the scholars of Yekis, so I sincerely said: “Oh, sorry, Yekis, I didn’t understand your troubles.”
The scholar Yekis waved at me, saying that he didn't mind.
Then he pondered for a moment before saying, "When I started to study the magic pattern structures tattooed on my body, I suddenly found that we have almost no object to experiment with. Unless we can design a particularly excellent magic pattern structure, and we must also ensure the success rate of inscribeds. If no one believes in us, it will be difficult for us to find an object that is willing to let us experiment. After all, the circle of magicians is too small, and when everyone needs to build the magic pattern inscribeds on their bodies, they will be more willing to choose to believe in those famous inscription masters..."
"So you think we should find a way out in making armor sets with primary magic pattern construction?" I asked the Scholar of Yekis.
He waved his hand and said disdainfully: "Of course not, I hate things that don't have any challenges, do you know? Just as I was looking for a way out for this, you suddenly made that... magic pattern construction in the laboratory."
"That's the 'Cat Energy Magic Pattern'?" I asked.
"That's right!" he said.
I finally found an opportunity, so I carefully asked the reason for the depression of the Yekis scholar: "What's wrong with it? I have never understood why you became autistic because of it?"
The scholar Yekis took a deep breath and then said, "Because of its appearance, it solved the problem that I had been thinking hard for several months... Oh, no, it solved the problem that several generations of magic inscription masters could not solve!"
I guess the ‘it’ that the scholars of Yekis should be the ‘energy-gathering magic pattern’!
Although I had a flash of inspiration in my mind, as if I had caught something, I still couldn't figure it out in the end, so I asked him: "Ah! Why am I a little confused?"
Instead of answering my question directly, the scholar Yekis asked me a common sense question: "Do you know why the magic swordsman can inscribe the magic pattern on his body?"
I said: "Due to the affinity of magic elements, they can collect magic powers of certain attributes around their bodies. These magic powers provide a stable source of magic power for the magic pattern construction, so they can inscribe magic patterns on their bodies before the second turn."
The scholar Yekis drank the wine in the cup in one sip and poured himself another. While savoring the taste of golden cider, he said to me: "If... I mean, if we added the 'energy magic pattern' to each elementary magic pattern structure, have you ever thought about what effect would it have?"
I finally understood what the scholars of Yekis wanted to say, but if this matter was made public, it would probably cause a stir in the magic world.
I resisted the storm in my heart, approached him, and lowered my voice and said, "You mean... can all the junior warriors inscribe magic patterns on their bodies?"
The scholar Yekis said with a complete expression of his own derision: "Yes, that's it. The magic patterned structure engraved on his body will be popularized on every structural knight. In that case, the structural knights of the Green Empire will increase their combat effectiveness to a higher level. This is something that many inscription masters have been thinking about day and night. Unexpectedly, they will be completely solved because of a small companion magic pattern."
He smiled faintly and asked me, "Do you say this is because you are lucky or because we are dull?"
I hurriedly explained: "I didn't invent this thing. I just copied this companion magic pattern from the magic book. If you want, I can..."
As if he was frightened, Yekis waved his hand and said, "You should keep it in good condition! Jijia, you need to remember... Not everyone can control the greed in their hearts. I hope you don't mention that book to anyone."
The surroundings began to become quiet.
In the duel arena, the duel between the two gladiators officially began. The two gladiators walked slowly around the outer circle of the gladiator, as if looking for an opportunity to charge.
A big phantom condensed from behind the body of the scorpion warrior, which was a sand scorpion dozens of meters long. The sand scorpion in the phantom raised two huge front claws high, raised sharp tail needles high, and posed in a fighting posture. This warrior was actually a warrior with a breakthrough in strength, so he really couldn't be underestimated.
I had a flash of inspiration in my mind, and came to the ears of the scholar Yekis and suggested: "Yekis, I have a suggestion that we can actually buy some slaves. As our experimental subjects, at the beginning, I could practice drawing some of the simplest magic pattern configurations on them, such as simple 'strength increase', 'physical increase', 'agility increase', etc.."
The scholar Yekis stared at Grigori intently and said, "Of course, since we have the 'energy-gathering magic pattern', there is nothing wrong with it!"
At this time, a huge phantom of a fire wolf appeared behind Grigori. The fire wolf wrapped in flames was much smaller than the sand scorpion, but the aura was full. The burning flames could be seen in the phantom. The short sword in Grigori's hand also burned at this moment, and the entire sword blade turned red, like a red iron bar.
The battle between the two was about to break out.
The first person who couldn't hold back was the scorpion warrior's fangs. He opened his mouth and roared wildly, and his legs strode towards Grigori. His hands were blunt, like a moving sand scorpion.
Grigori on the other side took a deep breath and handed the red Roman sword held in his right hand to his left hand. His body was light and sharp, leaping forward like a reindeer. Each step was a very unique rhythm, as if it was fitting into some unique war drum, and his pace became erratic.
In the eyes of the Scorpion Warriors, Grigori's figure was as erratic as a fire that was swollen. He could only slow down his body, difficult to judge Grigori's next landing point, and then make some corresponding adjustments to his body, but in this way, he lost the opportunity.
When Grigori collided with the fangs, the Scorpion warrior hugged both hands, while Grigori jumped high and flew over the fangs' head.
Just above the sharp teeth, Grigori turned around and backwards to insert the red dagger into the heart of the Scorpion warrior along the slit of the collarbone.
There was a loud "pop".
Just as Grigori landed, the huge body of the Scorpion warrior fell on the sand. The drops of blood splashed out from the wound on his shoulder were quickly evaporated by the red Roman sword, and a trace of white water vapor was steamed, and then... the wound was bloodless.
The ultimate quietness is just between dozens of breaths.
Then, cheers of victory erupted on the court.
Chapter completed!
