[Chapter 218 Ancient Magic Ruins]
…
the weather was clear and blue over the Patrick Islands.
Located in the hinterland of the main island and directly under the college’s relic restricted area, it was already overcrowded that day.
“Have you heard? This ruins originated from ancient times!” “
Of course I know. It is said that since the Magic Association moved its headquarters here, it has not been opened to the public for decades.” ” Tsk tsk
, it’s incredible. Look at such a large-scale ancient ruins, how many secrets of ancient magic are hidden in it?”
Has all the secrets of this ancient ruins been resolved?”
“…”
The contestants and spectators who came to this ruins are all talking at this moment, and their speculations about the ancient ruins in front of them are even more serious. It never stopped.
As the last qualifier in the previous round of qualifiers, Wu Hui was standing at the end of the team of contestants, looking at the ruins ahead.
This relic is indeed very old, with traces of years of erosion everywhere. In an area about the size of two football fields, it is covered with strange tall stone pillars. At first glance, it looks like a strange stone forest formed by natural weathering. Rocky and magnificent.
However, if you take a closer look, you will find that the tall stone pillars covered with traces of time are actually neatly arranged according to a specific law.
Wu Hui also found that between the stone pillars and the stone pillars, there are small magic circles with mottled marks. These small magic circles are connected to each other, and finally together with the surrounding stone pillars, they form the entire large ruins.
In these ancient patterns that make up the magic circle, it can be clearly seen that there are many repaired and completed parts. It is obvious that this relic has been carefully analyzed and repaired by the masters of the Magic Association.
This process is likely to last for decades, and it has only recently been able to work well. As for what it is used for and how it will be used as a second round of testing, Wu Hui does not know.
“Everyone be quiet!”
A majestic voice instantly spread to the audience through the magic of loudspeaker.
Everyone at the scene immediately turned their eyes and saw Keith Wood, the current president of the Magic Association, standing majestically on the temporary rostrum.
Beside him, there were two other well-known 7th-level Dharma Saints in the magic world, Court Saint Magister Andrew Haiwei, and “Ice Calamity” Iswell.
The crowd and contestants at the scene were full of respect for the three bigwigs in the magic world, and soon quieted down. Everyone seemed to be listening patiently.
President Wood was very satisfied with the crowd’s reaction, and he looked a little more proud, so he looked at the crowd and continued to introduce: “As you can see, this is a magical relic from ancient times. But after our association After more than ten years of research and restoration by our research team, it is finally fully operational!”
Hearing Chairman Wood’s words, the crowd immediately burst into exclamations and murmurs.
It has been completely analyzed and repaired, and it can be fully operated? In the magic world, this can definitely be called the number one big news of the year! And such a big news was deliberately put in the second promotion round before it really broke out.
It is conceivable how much anticipation and excitement the on-site contestants and spectators will have after hearing the news.
“Silence!”
President Wood raised his hand, and after suppressing the crowd’s excited discussion, he continued to introduce, “The real area of this ruins is actually far larger than what it is now. The land under our feet, as well as our The surrounding college buildings were part of this relic in ancient times.” “
It’s a pity that the time is merciless, and the materials left for us to study are very limited. All we can do is to grasp every gift of history and do our best. Reproduce the precious knowledge of ancient magic to the young magicians who are looking for the path of truth!”
Next, President Wood, as a matter of routine, launched a series of praises to the academy and the Magic Association in order to attract more young people, Join them.
Wu Hui wasn’t interested in listening to this, he was like a student attending a training conference, letting the dean speak happily on the stage, and he turned his eyes elsewhere alone.
Just when he was drowsy, Chairman Wood finally got to the point.
“After years of analysis by the research team of our association, we know that this ancient magic relic was a training facility used by ancient humans to train young people. Although we only restored a part, this part is the core of the entire magic facility. Its functions are enough to allow our second-round contestants to obtain a perfect competition experience comparable to that year!”
President Wood suddenly raised his voice and announced with pride, “Yes, it is a competition! The second round of promotion The item to be tested is the actual ability of the contestants to use magic!” The
hundreds of contestants on the scene, as well as the crowd of onlookers who were so large that they couldn’t get through, immediately erupted into a noisy discussion.
No one expected that just after the second round, they passed the most difficult practical operation test, and it seemed to be a practical competition.
Just using this ancient ruins with mottled traces, how to actually compete?
Everyone at the scene was full of curiosity. President Wood glanced at the reactions of the crowd, and continued to introduce vigorously: “The superb technology of the ancient ruins is exclusively owned by our Magic Association in the whole world! Now, you will witness with your own eyes, this almost miraculous ancient technology. Magic!”
“Next, all contestants only need to stand in the magic circle between those stone pillars and wear our special helmets, so that their spirits can instantly enter an extremely real virtual illusion! There will be An arena where they actually fight each other without being fatally injured!”
“Wow! Is it real or not?”
“Virtual fantasy? So real? It’s still an arena!”
“What kind of superb magic technology is this? It’s too amazing Right?”
The crowd at the scene was in high spirits, while the contestants in the second round all looked bright and eager to try.
For many of them, they may not be able to reach the final step in the second round of rigorous tests, but as long as they can personally experience the magic of ancient magic, they will be satisfied.
“Wait, this, is this…”
In the crowd, Wu Hui froze in place.
Combining President Wood’s description just now, he looked at the ancient ruins beside him, and he was secretly stunned. Special helmet, virtual illusion, real competition… This, this broken ruin, is it probably not an online game server? And it’s an immersive holographic virtual online game!
And what kind of ancient humans from the ancient era, could it be possible that among them there are also ancestors who traveled from the earth?
Wu Hui couldn’t believe it, the wind was messy, this is fake, right? The people on earth have not yet developed a real holographic online game.
Chairman Wood once again raised his hand to suppress the audience’s discussion, and began to announce the relevant rules of the promotion competition.
“In the second round of the promotion competition, a two-person team will be adopted, and the points elimination system will be adopted. The competition process will be broadcast to you through the magic water curtain, and the points ranking will also appear on the adjacent water curtain. The top ten players in the points ranking, We will enter the third round of finals, and all other players will be eliminated!”
President Wood raised his finger, and two water magic screens that were exactly the same as those in the first round of qualifiers rose majestically from the side of the ancient ruins.
On the first water curtain, the names of hundreds of contestants are being displayed, but the ranking and points are currently showing zero. Another large water curtain adjacent to it was divided into dozens of small screens.
Different scenes were displayed on those small screens, which looked like a desolate and dilapidated ancient battlefield overgrown with weeds.
The emotions of the crowd became even more excited, and there was a thought in everyone’s mind: Could it be that this ancient magic relic can really transmit the spiritual power of the contestants to this virtual ancient battlefield? Let those contestants compete in the virtual battlefield with spiritual strength?
The crowd was passionate, only Wu Hui raised his hand to wipe away his cold sweat.
This piece of broken ruins is indeed an immersive holographic online game, and it is also a competitive holographic online game! Sure enough, you still can’t underestimate the other world. This alien world has existed for so long, there are ancient times, and there are real gods, so it is normal to have more weird things.
Take the current Wu Hui as an example, as long as he has plenty of divine power and he is willing, it is easy to create a world similar to holographic online games.
“The rules of the second round of the competition are very simple. The contestants will be sent into two teams, and then they will be sent to a random place in the virtual battlefield. In the virtual battlefield, except for the only teammate, all the other players are enemies. You will get 5 points for killing, 3 points for assisting killing, and 10 points for killing teammates!”
President Wood faced the contestants and continued to announce the rules loudly, “In addition, there are many potential points in the virtual battlefield. Monsters and enemies, kill them, you can gain 1, 3, 5 and other corresponding points, and kill high-level monsters, and explore some dangerous areas, you will get precious magic tools and equipment! Remember, use your bravery and wisdom , will be a shortcut for you to gain an advantage and lead to victory!”
All the contestants, including the three geniuses, had bright eyes and expressions full of excitement.
In a virtual battlefield, using bravery and wisdom to fight each other, and even fight monsters and hunt for treasures, the blood in their bodies boiled instantly.
“Okay, okay, I understand, this game is a combination of eating chicken and LOL.” Wu Hui complained weakly in his heart, but this kind of game is really fun. He played a lot when he was still on Earth. , the record is not bad.
Sure enough, just as Wu Hui expected, Chairman Wood continued to announce: “The competition time is three magic moon hours! After the competition starts, every half magic moon hours, the arena will continue to shrink towards the center point. If at this time Competitors who are not in the competitive circle will be eliminated immediately!”
Many contestants at the scene were excited, but also cautious.
According to the rules of the competition, one cannot live long, otherwise one will be eliminated from the competitive circle. The earlier the elimination, the less points you will get, which means the lower the ranking.
It seems that if you want to win, you must keep moving and take the initiative to attack as much as possible. At least most of the time, you need to take the initiative to fight, so that you can continuously gain points and improve your ranking.
“In addition, for the balance of combat power among the players, our Magic Association has specially added a balance system full of wisdom in this competitive arena!”
As President Wood’s passionate and proud voice sounded, the crowd Zhong Wuhui almost didn’t spit out a mouthful of old blood.
What?
This broken game has a balance system?
