Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything

Chapter 43 The only rule is the survival of the fittest.

Thud! Thud! Thud

In just over ten meters of sprinting, three barbarians were sent flying by the mage's hand.

With Pei Ze's current mental strength, the power of the Mage's Hand he unleashed was close to level five, comparable to a Grand Knight's full-force attack.

How could these barbarians, who were at most only at the level of knights, possibly withstand it?

The moment they were struck by the mage's hand, a large cloud of blood mist burst from their bodies. They landed motionless, dead on the spot!

This scene horrified the other barbarians.

"A second-level wizard apprentice!"

The barbarian leader's expression changed drastically; he never expected that his first target would be a second-level wizard apprentice.

However, it was too late to regret it then, and the barbarians could only grit their teeth and continue charging toward their goal.

Wizard apprentices are generally not good at close combat; if they can close the distance, they might still have a glimmer of hope.

But the next second, the sharp sword light that rushed towards them shattered their last shred of hope.

As the sword flashed, one by one, the barbarians stared wide-eyed, clutching their throats as they collapsed to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, only the leader of the dozen or so barbarians remained.

"Peak, peak knight!"

The barbarian leader was deathly pale.

A second-level wizard apprentice is one thing, but a peak knight-level melee combat skill is another. There's simply no way to win!

What incredible luck they have! They chose this monster as their first target!

The barbarian leader gave a bitter smile, revealing a look of despair.

The next second, a muffled thud was heard, and his tall body was sent flying by the mage's hand, his body exploding with blood mist, and he died on the spot.

The battle lasted less than half a minute from start to finish.

More than a dozen barbarians were wiped out in an instant.

Standing amidst the corpses scattered on the ground, Pei Ze's expression remained calm and composed.

Compared to the four great knights killed earlier, the battle before them was undoubtedly much bloodier.

After all, he personally killed more than half of the enemies inside.

The sensation of a sword blade slicing through flesh, and the close-up scene of blood splattering, are undoubtedly more thrilling.

However, perhaps due to his strong mental fortitude, he was unexpectedly calm, as if he had crushed a few ants.

Pei Ze felt no remorse for killing the Dilo barbarian.

The barbarians want to kill the wizard apprentices to gain their freedom, while the wizard apprentices want to kill the barbarians to gain points; both sides are hunter and prey to each other.

The current situation on the island is actually a microcosm of the interdimensional war.

In interdimensional wars, civilization, morality, justice, and all such concepts are illusions; the only rule is the survival of the fittest!

"Power is the only truth."

Pei Ze stretched out his palm, and with a thought, the crystal bracelet instantly emitted more than ten rays of azure light, which shot towards the corpse on the ground like tentacles and disappeared into it.

After a slight pause, a wisp of light gray quickly spread upwards along the light and flowed into the crystal bracelet.

The next second, the crystal bracelet transmitted a series of messages.

The text roughly translates to something like, "Kill a Dilo barbarian (apprentice knight), +1 point", "Kill a Dilo barbarian (junior knight), +5 points", etc.

When the crystal bracelet finished absorbing the soul energy and withdrew the light, the score on it had become 37.

Pei Ze's ranking on the list also soared to 25th.

"37 points isn't enough to get into the top 20? The competition is pretty fierce."

Pei Ze muttered something to himself, but didn't really pay attention to it.

Today is only the first day. They will have to stay on the island for ten more days before the competition gets fiercest.

"Mist Feather," Pei Ze whispered.

The black bracelet on her wrist trembled slightly, disintegrated into pitch-black mist, and condensed into a raven in the void.

dumb!

Wu Yu landed lightly on Pei Ze's shoulder and gently pecked his cheek, showing her affection.

Pei Ze smiled slightly and instructed, "Investigate the surrounding area."

Wu Yu responded, and black energy surged from his body, from which black crows flew out one after another.

Before long, hundreds of crows appeared in the sky above the forest.

dumb!

Mist Feather raised its head and let out a neigh.

Haha!

Hundreds of fog crows responded in unison, then dispersed in all directions, disappearing into the forest.

A giant floating ship.

On the empty deck, three wizards stood with their hands behind their backs.

Hundreds of water mirrors floated in the void in front of the three people.

The smooth mirror was as big as a washbasin, and it played a series of battle scenes of wizard apprentices.

Gu Yi smiled faintly, "There are quite a few promising talents this year, 125 second-level wizard apprentices. This is the largest number of second-level wizard apprentices in the past fifty years."

Yu Sen scoffed, "Not even a single level three wizard apprentice. What kind of promising talents are they? The dean actually wants these guys to go and wipe out the heretics. I really doubt they'll end up getting slaughtered instead."

Gu Yi shook his head: "You're being too demanding of them."

"Leaving aside the other apprentices, Gu Lin, Yin Guang, and Pei Shaoqi have all performed very well. They were able to construct twelve will runes within three months of enrolling. Such talent is among the best of all the previous freshmen."

As they were talking, one of the water mirrors happened to be showing Gu Lin's battle scene.

The pretty girl took out an orange-red gem from her dimensional bag and threw it at the barbarian more than ten meters away.

With a deafening roar, the gemstone transformed into a massive fireball mid-air, crashing irresistibly into its target.

The barbarian, who possessed the strength of a great knight, didn't even have time to scream before he vanished into thin air in an instant.

"The Gu family's gem magic." Gu Yi's eyes revealed admiration. "Able to cast first-circle spells using ruby ​​stones even as a second-level wizard apprentice, it seems Gu Lin's aptitude is even more outstanding than I thought."

Yu Sen stared intently at Gu Lin in the mirror, pursed his lips, and said nothing more.

The last person to have shown such talent during their second-level wizard apprenticeship was the current head of the Gu family.

"The Gu family has a successor." Ai Yuan said slowly at this moment.

However, he suddenly let out a soft exclamation, looked up at a water mirror in the upper right corner, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Gu Yi and Yu Sen rarely saw Ai Yuan like this, and they both looked at the water mirror at the same time.

In the mirror, an apprentice stands in the woods, while countless crows fly in all directions overhead.

After seeing the apprentice's face clearly, Gu Yi looked surprised.

Pei Ze.

Ai Yuan turned to look at him: "You recognize him?"

"We met once before," Gu Yi recounted the events that had transpired.

After listening, Ai Yuan revealed a look of great interest.

"An interesting little fellow, not only does he have improved spells, but he also has an excellent magical pet."

The three formal wizards present were all highly discerning and could naturally see that Pei Ze's raven pet possessed two types of magical abilities.

For a newly contracted magical pet, this undoubtedly means outstanding aptitude and enormous potential.

If nurtured properly, it might become a high-level magical pet with strength comparable to a formal wizard in the future!

"This trial might bring us some surprises," Ai Yuan said with a deep look in his eyes.
