Chapter 267 Fortress
"Outstanding personal ability is enough." Chen Xiaohai obviously had a spirit of individualism, and curled his lips in disdain, "Aside from other things, let's say that the two of us are now facing a Thunderbird one-on-one. It's just a matter of running."

Fang Tian shrugged his shoulders, and did not argue. For a paladin without the ability to fly, of course, the only thing he could do was to be chased and beaten by the Thunderbird, but if it was on the battlefield, it would be different. The flock of birds will definitely be the primary target of the mages, and the ogre mage troops of the orc army only have offensive buff skills such as bloodthirsty, which is difficult to protect the Thunderbird army. Unlike other rough-skinned orc troops, Thunderbird's defense is relatively weak, so Thunderbird is often killed as soon as it appears on the battlefield by accident, which is also an embarrassment for orc troops.

Kong has martial arts skills, but he is always the first target to be killed.

Fang Tian had heard people talking loudly in the tavern before, if the Thunderbird could take the place of the human griffin, maybe the human race would have unified the whole continent long ago...

Of course, Fang Tian doesn't believe these remarks. Human beings have always been top-notch existences on the big road, and their strength is generally lost in vain through internal friction.

Chen Xiaohai muttered something, and walked up the mountain along the road with Fang Tian.

The two soon came to an orc fortress halfway up the mountain.

A few trolls guarding in front of the fort saw the two humans, so they swaggered up with their weapons and said something to Fang Tian in the orc language.

Seeing two humans here, the attitude of the troll is not too friendly.

It was not the first time for Fang Tian to deal with orcs. He calmly responded in orc language and handed over a parchment note at the same time.

Perhaps it was Fang Tian's proficient orc language that made the two trolls feel a little bit of goodwill. After glancing at the note, the troll's attitude was not as cold as before.

The two trolls opened the gate of the fort, yelled at the two of them, and entered the fort.

Fang Tian and Chen Xiaohai looked at each other, and immediately followed.

The interior space of the fort was wider than imagined, and the two followed the troll around inside the fort.

"What did you tell them just now?" Chen Xiaohai whispered in Fang Tian's ear.

"I told them we were looking for a magician's assistant."

"Then what was that parchment you showed them just now?"

"The above is the information about this recruitment. I picked it up at the grocery store."

"Nice!" Chen Xiaohai praised, "Well done!"

Although it was a worthless thing, Chen Xiaohai was still very happy to be able to get something from the old man in the grocery store.

Fang Tian was noncommittal, and secretly recorded the route he passed in his heart, and at the same time used a special method to construct a route map inside the entire fortress in his brain.

Although the old man said before that most of the troops inside the fort were taken away from the city by the city lord Azeru, according to Fang Tian's observations, the guards inside the fort are not weak. composed of patrols.

After walking for about 5 minutes with the two trolls in front, the two were brought to an iron door on the second floor.

Chen Xiaohai pushed Fang Tian and asked, "Then where are we going now?"

"Assessment."

Fang Tian's answer was very short.

"Assess what?"

"The arcane test, the magic circle qualification test, to put it simply, is to test whether you really understand the magic circle."

Just as they were talking, the two trolls in front helped them push open the iron gate in front.

Behind the iron door is a huge laboratory. Looking around, various experimental materials are piled up in the room.

"Oh, I know, exam, right..." Chen Xiaohai looked at the things in the laboratory. Xiaorou was very reluctant. He felt the same as when he was reading math books in school, reading everything. I don’t understand, and I feel very guilty.

Chen Xiaohai glanced at the pages of the book lying in the backpack again, pretended to be calm, and tried to ease the sheriff's emotions in his heart: "Hey, I said the old man in the grocery store would not trick us, if this thing is useless, wouldn't we die in Here it is."

Fang Tian looked back at Chen Xiaohai and analyzed seriously: "It's not necessarily true. The rumors about orcs from outside humans are not accurate, and orcs don't kill people casually. I think the worst case scenario is to be imprisoned and wait. The city lord’s disposal.”

Chen Xiaohai's face froze, "Uh... I'll just say that, don't take it seriously."

Just as he was talking, the troll in front turned around and said a few words to the two of them.

Fang Tian also responded, turned to Chen Xiaohai and said, "The assessment part can only be done alone."

"Clam?"

Before Chen Xiaohai could speak, the troll who had been standing behind the two pushed Chen Xiaohai into the room and closed the iron door.

Two minutes later, Chen Xiaohai came out of the room, and secretly gave Fang Tian an ok gesture.

Fang Tian glanced at Chen Xiaohai's face, and followed the troll into the room.

In addition to the chaotic piles of various magic items in the room, there was also a broken formation on the floor in the corner.

Fang Tian glanced at the formation, and the symbols of the magic formation immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Hint: A primary magic circle has been detected."

Although Fang Tian had never studied the formation systematically or taken any courses for magicians, he had a very familiar feeling when he saw this magic formation for the first time.

At the altar of the church before, he learned the skill of arcane mastery, and arcane is the origin of the magic circle.

The two trolls next to them pointed at the magic circle and yelled, meaning to ask Fang Tian to use his own magic power to activate the magic circle, so as to judge whether Fang Tian really understood the magic circle.

Fang Tian took two steps forward, squatted on the edge of the magic circle, and stretched out his hands to press the edge of the magic circle.

"Reminder: It is detected that the player has obtained the soul * primary arcane mastery, you can try to activate the magic circle, is the activation probability 100% activated?"

After Fang Tian chose Yes, the thoughts in his body began to flow rapidly. Then, under the guidance of the game, Fang Tian clearly felt that a small part of the thoughts flowed into the formation along his hands.

The moment the 'nian' flowed into the formation, the entire formation flashed red light as if suddenly activated, and at the same time, a composition of a magic formation was constructed in Fang Tian's mind.

The composition of this picture is so clear that Fang Tian can clearly see every symbol, every line, and even every stroke in the formation.

At this moment, Fang Tian suddenly had a new understanding of arcana and magic.

Magic, in fact, is also a kind of reading.

It is a kind of special energy formed by the change of form after thoughts circulate in the body.

Compared with the original peaceful thought, this energy is more destructive.

In other words, things like magic also exist based on thoughts?
