We're Already In Close Combat And You Still Say You're A Mage?

The arrow rain stopped and Xu Bai looked around.

Looking at the corpses of his companions around him, as well as the orc infantry stepping on the corpses and slowly approaching, a surge of anger rose in his heart, diluting the fear of death, and shouted:

"Come here, half-breed bastard!!"

After saying this, regardless of whether they could understand it or not, he made a fierce international friendly gesture to the surrounding orcs.

As if they understood the meaning of the gesture, the orcs around him suddenly became furious.

The orcs swarmed up together, intending to cut Xu Bai into pieces.

"Ali Kulu" (orc language: everyone retreat)

A shout came from behind the orcs.

The orcs who had originally rushed forward retreated with excitement on their faces, as if they were about to see some good performance.

Looking at the retreating orcs, Xu Bai looked confused.

He was already prepared to kill one without losing money and kill two with a sure profit, but now he felt like he had punched cotton.

The orcs in front of them suddenly made way for a passage, and a tall orc walked out of the passage.

He wore a suit of exquisite armor, covered with gorgeous feathers, and also held a spear in his hand.

The spear was made of meteorite iron and had strange patterns on its body.

He stopped not far from Xu Bai and said intermittently to Xu Bai in broken common language:

"You are a warrior. I, Carter, the Captain of Ten Thousands, compete with you. If you lose, you will die. If you win, you will live."

Carter is the second son of the Beast King.

He is also a famous strongman among the orcs and loves to challenge the strong.

And Xu Bai was able to survive the rain of arrows in the sky.

Successfully attracted his attention.

As the second son of the Beast King, even the marshal had to give him some slack.

This is also the reason why he can find Xu Bai in a single fight in the chaotic battlefield without fear of subsequent punishment.

The next moment, the notification sound from the Garden of Origin came.

"Prompt: "Your main mission has been forcibly changed to - The Challenge of the Ten Thousand Captains. ""

"Task reward: Overcomplete the trial task, the minimum limit for awakening talents and professions is locked at S level, and the upper limit can reach SSS level."

"Penalty for failure: death."

Xu Bai didn't care about the high rewards given by the new main line.

At this time, his eyes were fixed on Carter, the orc commander in front of him, holding the spear in his hand to destroy evil, ready to explode at any time.

Seeing Xu Bai's posture, Carter couldn't help but become serious.

He slowly took off all the decorative feathers on his body, shook his spear with his hand, and then strode towards Xu Bai.

After a few steps, his legs exerted their strength and he quickly rushed towards Xu Bai, stabbing his face with the spear in his hand.

Xu Bai Poxie stepped forward and put aside the spear that was stabbing him.

Immediately afterwards.

Xu Bai felt it.

Although he brushed aside the stabbing spear, the enemy's terrifying force still spread along the gun barrel to his arm, and Po Xie almost escaped.

Xu Bai took two steps back, secretly surprised.

If according to the standards of the Court of Origin, the strength of the orc captain in front of him might have been 17 or even 18 points, far exceeding Xu Bai's 14 points.

Compared to Xu Bai, Carter was even more surprised.

The human cavalry in front of him could survive the rain of arrows.

It's really not simple.

No matter what they were thinking, there was no trace of emotion on either of their faces.

The two looked at each other, nervously watching each other's every move from the corners of their eyes, and their bodies involuntarily began to circle around an invisible point.

"ha!"

Xu Bai suddenly burst into anger and stabbed Carter's heart with the spear in his hand.

If Carter was stabbed by this gun, there would probably be a big hole in Carter's chest.

Carter reacted immediately and leaned back, using an imperfect iron bridge to barely avoid the spear.

He held the iron spear in his hand on the ground with his backhand, twisted his waist, and kicked Po Xie away with his belt and legs.

Stand up to show off.

How could Xu Bai, who had taken the initiative, give him a chance to get up?

Xu Bai immediately stepped forward and took advantage of the stage when Carter's old strength was exhausted and new strength was not yet generated. He punched Carter in the face hard, knocking Carter back to the ground. He stepped forward and was about to hit Carter's face violently.

Carter landed on the ground and immediately rolled sideways, avoiding the fate of being face-mounted.

He turned around and leaned over, picked up the spear in his hand and swiped it low, aiming at Xu Bai's left leg in front of his crotch, trying to break Xu Bai's left leg as he stepped out.

Xu Bai saw the right opportunity and kicked off the ground with his left leg, avoiding the incoming spear.

He exerted force with his right leg, rushed forward with a single lunge, stepped on the meteorite spear swept by Carter, and controlled his weapon.

In an instant, a Poxie spear was thrust out from his hand, pointing directly at Carter's head.

Carter was also a veteran on the battlefield. He immediately dropped the meteorite spear in his hand and dodged Xu Bai's attack to break the evil.

He strode towards Xu Bai, intending to fight Xu Bai in close combat with his superior strength attribute.

Xu Bai quickly jumped back several times, widening the distance between him and Carter.

The spear in his hand shook, and he took a stance, blocking all possible routes for Carter to get closer.

Seeing that he couldn't get close, Carter turned around, picked up the meteorite spear, and chased after Xu Bai. As he ran, the spear in his hand was full of strength, and he aimed it at Xu Bai again.

Xu Bai quickly raised Po Xie to ward off the meteorite spear, and put it aside.

But who would have expected that Carter actually took advantage of the situation and moved forward, stabbing out his tree spear one after another, forcing Xu Bai to retreat continuously.

Suddenly Xu Bai made a mistake and let go of the spear in his hand. The door in front of him opened wide. Carter immediately strode forward, and the meteorite spear went straight to the door in front of Xu Bai.

But who would have expected that Xu Bai didn't dodge, picked up the fallen Poxie with his right hand, and stabbed Carter's throat, actually trying to exchange his life for his life!

Carter didn't take it seriously. He drew his gun much earlier than Xu Bai. The iron spear had already penetrated Xu Bai's head before Xu Bai stabbed him.

But unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred, and a shield filled with arrows suddenly appeared between the two of them, blocking Carter's meteorite spear.

Carter secretly thought something was wrong.

Before he had time to think about how the shield appeared out of thin air, his throat and spine were penetrated by the evil spirit, and he lost his life.

Carter, the orc captain of ten thousand men, has been killed!

A flash of silver light flashed, and a silver treasure box appeared next to Carter's body.

"Prompt: "You get 3000 points of trial merit. ""

"Tip: "Your main mission "The Captain's Challenge" has been completed. You can choose to return immediately, or you can choose to stay for 36 hours and return. ""

Xu Bai immediately picked up the treasure box that Carter had dropped, thinking crazily about return in his heart, and the scene in front of him gradually faded and began to return.

Through the blurred scene, Xu Bai vaguely saw the orcs who had originally gathered in a circle to watch the battle rushing over. The ferocious light in their eyes seemed to devour Xu Bai.

...

After experiencing another bizarre teleportation, Xu Bai returned to the previous cyan space.

The prompt from the Garden of Origin rang in his ears:

""Congratulations on becoming an official walker, walker number: 762744""

The settlement of this trial begins:

Trial Rating: Level 9.5

Obtained trial merit: 3783 points

Walker level increase: 3

Main mission rewards: The minimum limit for awakening talents and professions is locked at S level, and the upper limit can reach SSS level.

Side mission rewards: None

The trial is completed, the overall evaluation is S+, and you gain 6 attribute points.

(Origin Coin: the common currency in the Court of Origin)

"Prompt: "It has been detected that you have obtained talent awakening permission. The lower limit of the talent is locked to S and the upper limit is SSS. The awakening has been enabled for you. ""

Xu Bai immediately felt a sharp breath burst out from his body.

The blood from his body suddenly surged out of his arm, and a spear condensed from his own blood was about to take shape in his hand.

But the blood gun suddenly exploded.

Xu Bai only felt a bang in his head, and a seventh sense in addition to the six senses suddenly appeared in his body, replacing the sharp aura.

Through his extra seventh sense, Xu Bai clearly felt that the space was filled with various elements.

These elements conveyed a kind meaning to Xu Bai, and continued to gather around him, gradually forming nine light groups, conveying their own characteristics to Xu Bai.

Looking at the colors, the nine light balls represent the nine elements.

They are: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, and darkness.

The nine light balls gave Xu Bai nine different feelings, but one thing they all had in common was that they all wanted to get close to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai responded to Guangqiu's closeness one by one.

The next moment, nine balls of light immediately sank into his body, and the seventh sense that was still a little illusory immediately became solid.

Through the seventh sense, the surrounding elemental forces seem to be at his disposal, as smoothly as using his own limbs.

"Prompt: "You have awakened the SS-level talent, "Elemental Apostle". ""

"Elemental Apostle (SS-level talent): You naturally have an extremely keen perception of natural elements. An additional 25% of mana is added, the mana consumption is reduced by 25% when releasing spell-like skills, and the mana recovery speed is doubled after entering combat. , when performing chanting skills, you can perform them directly without chanting."

"That's not right! The plot shouldn't develop like this, right?"

Xu Bai's mind was full of dark thoughts, and he could already feel the sharpness brought by the blood gun talent, which was consistent with the type of trial world he chose.

How did you finally develop a magic talent for yourself?

Xu Bai questioned the Court of Origin.

The answer from the Court of Origin was instantly displayed on the light screen in front of Xu Bai's eyes, as if it knew his question.

"It has been detected that you have a spear to destroy evil (in a broken state). According to the judgment of the Court of Origin, this talent is the most suitable talent for you."

Looking at the golden-edged answer from the Court of Origin, Xu Bai immediately thought of the weapon skill "Fire Carrier", which is a spear's evil weapon skill.

It seems that the damaged but still extremely strong spear is not simple, because its own awakened talents have changed.

Judging from this talent description, I will have to cultivate magic and martial arts in the future, otherwise I will waste such a powerful talent in vain.

The prompt from the Court of Origin appears again.

"Prompt: "Your talent has been awakened and a profession will be drawn for you. The lower limit of this draw is locked at S level and the upper limit is SSS level. ""

"Please select the keyword to extract the occupation"

Xu Bai thought for a moment and chose spells, melee combat and spear weapons as the keywords.

Career extraction has begun.

After a while, the prompt from the Garden of Origin appeared again.

"Prompt: "The SSS-level profession, Magic Knight, has been drawn for you."

Occupational name: Magic Knight (The mount has not yet awakened, and the awakening task needs to be completed before being promoted to the second level.)

Occupation introduction: The guardian of the rules, the lonely knight who resists the gray fog.

""After inheriting this profession, your strength will be greatly improved. Do you accept the inheritance? ""

Seeing the job introduction, Xu Bai accepted it immediately.

The prompt sounded, the cyan color that filled the surrounding space quickly faded, and the space teleportation began.

A strange and bizarre scene flashed across Xu Bai's eyes, and then gradually disappeared.

At this time, Xu Bai was already standing in front of a magic tower located on a high mountain.

Looking down from here, the land is dotted with broken buildings of all sizes, like a dilapidated and lost kingdom that has obviously experienced war.

The only intact building is the tall tower in front of Xu Bai. This must be the place of inheritance.

Xu Bai stepped forward and pushed open the door of the tower.

After entering, a hall with a height of nearly thirty meters comes into view.

A huge crystal ball hangs in the center of the hall, with a clear pool of water below.

"Inheriter?"

Suddenly, an old voice sounded from nowhere.

Xu Bai looked around but did not find the source of the sound.

A space crack suddenly appeared out of thin air, and a violent void storm surged out from it, blowing in front of Xu Bai, and was blocked by an invisible light curtain.

An old man with white beard and hair walked out.

The old man was wearing broken armor, with marks of knives and axes all over it. He was tall and mighty, holding a long spear with a light blue shimmer in his hand.

The moment he saw the old man, Xu Bai suddenly felt dizzy.

Before he knew it, he lay down in the pool in the center of the hall, and half of his body was submerged in the cold water.

The old man came to Xu Bai, looked him up and down, and asked, "Are you the one who came to get the inheritance?"

Xu Bai answered yes.

After hearing Xu Bai's reply, the old man said: "My name is Xier, and I am the leader of your inheritance ceremony. You can call me the leader."

"Now, relax your body and try to guide the elements around you, imagining them integrating into your body," Schier continued.

Xu Bai did as he was told.

Under perception, Xu Bai discovered that the elements in this magic energy tower were so rich that it was unimaginable.

Dense natural elements fill every inch of space, so rich that they almost become liquid.

This is a rich element compressed by the magic energy tower, specially designed to assist the inheritance ceremony.

Xu Bai began to attract the surrounding elements.

The rich natural elements immediately rushed towards Xu Bai, but were absorbed by the pool water.

Two minutes later, as there were more and more elements in the pool, the entire pool emitted colorful light, illuminating the crystal ball above in various colors.

Lao Xier on the side was not idle either.

He formed a seal with his hands and chanted an ancient and obscure spell. The crystal ball above the pool was gradually activated, emitting a dazzling white light.

The white light gradually gathered, and finally condensed into a beam of light, which shone on Xu Bai's chest in the pool.

Xu Bai's body gradually glowed and began to absorb the elemental power in the pool.

The process lasted an hour.

When the white light gradually dissipated, the elemental power in the pool was absorbed by Xu Bai and became clear again.

Xu Bai stood up from the pool. At this time, his body was filled with brilliance. Yes, that was literally true.

Lights representing different elements continued to flash from Xu Bai's body.

At this time, Xu Bai's whole body was like a lantern during a stage performance, flashing continuously.

Now Xu Bai only felt that his body was full of strength, as if he could split gold and break iron.

Tip: "You have obtained the professional inheritance - "Magic Knight", the inherited passive - "Elemental Physique" has been activated, your skill list has changed, and your physical data has been greatly improved. Please return to the Court of Origin to check for specific information. The remaining The residence time is 20 seconds. "

Not only Xu Bai, but also Lao Xier on the side received the countdown this time.

He thought for a moment, then a scroll with silver light appeared in his hand, and he threw it to Xu Bai.

"This is something from your Court of Origin. It should be useful to you. If we meet again in the future, I will bring you something good."

After saying that, Lao Xier stretched out his hand and held it in the air, and black lines like spider webs spread from his five fingers.

Those were traces of the destruction of the space structure. He just pulled it casually and tore a space crack out of thin air.

Lao Xier stepped in and disappeared.

After a while, the space structure repaired itself, the cracks disappeared, and it was like he had never appeared.

...

20 seconds passed by in a blink of an eye, and the scene in front of Xu Bai changed again. When a touch of cyan filled his field of vision, he had returned to the Garden of Origin.

"Tip: "All the rewards for this trial have been settled, and the exclusive rooms and some infrastructure in the Court of Origin have been opened for you. "

"Tip: The next trial will start in 15 days. Walkers can choose to stay in the Court of Origin or return to the present world."
