The villain only wants to live a Buddhist life

"Boom!"

The explosion was deafening.

Half of the field was destroyed in the dense beam.

Erce Shacklebolt's figure completely disappeared in the explosion.

His consciousness was directly disconnected under the protection mechanism of the human body, and he was already standing in the [cemetery] when he woke up again.

"The battle is over."

"Victor: Nono Artemis!"

The voice of the referee announcing the result was a bit harsh, but it also made Erce Shaker quickly understand the status quo.

He was suddenly silent.

For orcs, failure is not a shameful thing, but the premise is not to fail at a critical moment.

Eva Hearst was not blamed, it was just because she happened to be favored by [Soul of Heroes], which diverted the players' attention.

But his failure this time completely ruined the good situation of the War Totem Academy, making this round of competition have to enter the final stage of "combat against general".

He originally entered the duel with the idea of ​​ending the game, and his opponent was only a second-year student, and he was not even a player in the main match.

The result was such a failure.

The opponent didn't have particularly high-strength magic wizard cards, but annoying magic cards or item cards appeared endlessly.

During the entire duel, all his attacks were like hitting a piece of cotton without any force.

He had never fought such an uncomfortable duel.

The earth-shaking power he is proud of has nowhere to play.

The last desperate blow can already be said to be a vent.

If he didn't vent it fiercely, he doubted that he would be suffocated on the spot.

As for now...

Erce Shacklebolt's fist clenched suddenly and he gritted his teeth.

This time the failure has become an established fact.

But he is not without a chance to come back.

Ten years is not too late for the orcs to take revenge.

He must find a way to crack the moon elves' tactics before the start of the all-year group competition!

Urs Shacklebolt gave Nono Artemis a final hard look, and then exited the duel field under the latter's condescending gaze.

……

This duel, from the appearance of Nono Artemis to the final result, was unexpected by the audience.

Viewers who were previously only curious about Nono Artemis because of her hidden power quickly converted to her supporters after watching the duel.

The host Judy also invited Nono Artemis to the host stage with strong curiosity.

But when she started the interview, she suddenly found that Nono had changed!

From one person to another, it's that simple.

Nuonuo turned back into the original shy and cowardly moon elf girl.

……

On the stage of the contestants of the Elven Art Academy.

[Rain Fairy] Julia Amelia quietly let out a sigh of relief after the duel.

It is a very risky thing to let Nuonuo play instead of [Mountain Elf].

Because she couldn't be sure whether the "she" in Nuonuo's body would come out.

But under the current situation, she clearly judged that the [Mountain Elf] would be difficult to win, so she could only bet on Nono.

Fortunately, Nuonuo did not live up to her expectations and successfully won this victory.

Up to now, the score of Elven Art Academy VS War Totem Academy is three to three. The two sides have fought to a tie, and finally have a decisive chance.

Thinking of this, Julia couldn't help but look across.

……

On the stage of the contestants of the War Totem Academy.

Erce Shacklebolt had returned to the contestant's stage, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only keep silent.

The atmosphere on the contestant's stage was a little depressing.

The competition between orcs is more cruel than that of humans, and because of the different subdivisions of races, the relationship between the players will not be much better.

Urs Shacklebolt's cold reception fueled his vengeance.

And [Eagle Royale] Eva Hearst didn't say a word.

At other times, she would more or less taunt a few words, but she also has a responsibility when the game has progressed to this point, so naturally she won't say much.

"Things have come to this, think carefully about how to win in the next extra match."

Eva Hearst looked up, meeting Julia's eyes.

Her face was expressionless, and the light in her eyes was indeed getting sharper.

In the War Totem Academy, there is no player stronger than herself.

So in the final decisive game, she could only play.

But the Elven Academy is different.

Just now, Nono Artemis showed magic skills not inferior to Julia's, but was slightly lacking in deck strength.

But the duel is not just about card group comparison. With the absolute control ability demonstrated by Nuonuo Artemis, even if the weak defeat the strong, it is not impossible to defeat the superior.

In other words, the possibility of the Elven Art Academy sending her to play again is not zero.

Eva Hearst had to decide whether to play Julia or Nono next.

Different opponents require different deck constructions.

She has to win this victory.

Otherwise, losing two games in a row and the fact that the good situation fell short would make her very embarrassing during her time at St. Marian College.

That is a negative effect that even being favored by the [Hero's Soul] cannot offset.

And to be favored by [Hero Soul] would be jealous.

【Soul of Heroes】It doesn't mean that if you choose a person, it will be fixed forever. It will also leave because of the poor performance of the person you choose.

She must be very careful.

……

Julia Amelia had the same concerns.

In this last decisive game, it is impossible for Nuo Nuo to bear the burden again, both emotionally and rationally.

If Nuonuo is not in good condition in the final game, the pressure she needs to bear will be too great.

Even if she is in excellent condition, she may not be able to defeat Eva Hearst.

After all, there is a gap in hard power between the two sides, and the technical level may not be able to make up for it.

Moreover, Nuonuo has already played once, and he can no longer achieve the effect of "surprise".

Once Eva Hearst is pre-built for her deck composition, Nono's win rate will be even lower.

At this time, she still had to play by herself.

Julia quietly clenched her fists.

She already knew that Eva Hearst was favored by [Hero Soul],

He also has a more than basic understanding of what [Soul of Heroes] can bring to him.

In this deciding game, even if she plays, the winning rate will not be higher than 50.00%.

However, although there is a long way to go, it has to be done.

Julia looked resolute.

……

"Three to three."

Dak said: "Sure enough, the duel between the Elven Art Academy and the War Totem Academy is much more intense than the last round."

Diana couldn't help asking: "What happened to that moon elf?"

Dak shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific situation. But judging from the current situation, she has a second personality. I thought it was possessed by the spirit of the artifact, but now it seems that it is not that simple."

Rose pondered: "It's strange, after she puts on... the second personality, she always gives people a feeling that everything is under control. Could he be able to manipulate fate?"

When it comes to fortune, we have to mention [Goddess of Fate].

The corner of Dak's mouth twitched, and he said, "Maybe. But her duel is really smooth, and it feels like she can draw whatever she wants."

Sara over there said, "I thought you valued her so much that you would know something about her."

Dak pointed to his forehead with a smile, and said, "It's just an intuition."

Of course, this is not the case.

The core reason why he values ​​Nuonuo Artemis is actually because, in her body, he sees a bit of the male protagonist of "Yu-Gi-Oh"—[Muto Yugi].

But judging from the last duel, his feeling was not wrong.

Nono Artemis does have that unique fortune.

One Nono, one Eva.

In this round of competition alone, there have been two characters who can be said to have been born at the right time.

When he was reading those myths, legends, and celebrity allusions, he always felt that there would always be a large number of "characters" appearing together in special times.

The era closest to him was the end of the Demon War, and the golden generation headed by the brave Brett and the Valkyrie Alvette emerged one after another.

Now we are at the critical moment of the revival of the gods. In terms of the era, it must be greater than the era of the end of the demon war.

Then, it is normal for more "characters" to emerge.

After all, there are many people of this type just around him.

People like Pandora, Winnie, Werther, Emma, ​​Sarah, Aurora, and even Diana, Rose, and Eudora are all outstanding characters.

Some of them have grown up, some are still in the stage of potential accumulation, but the future is limitless.

It will not be worse than Eva and Nuonuo.

And when I think of this, there is a feeling of the tide of the times rolling forward.

"I don't know who will have the last laugh between the Elven Art Academy and the War Totem Academy?" Witte asked.

Dak looked at the contestant platform of the Elven Art Academy, and said softly, "That depends on their own choices."

……

Miracles don't belong to everyone.

Although Julia Amelia is also a gifted "character".

But when the opponents also stand on the same level, the outcome of the battle can no longer be influenced by simple talents.

After the countermeasure time is over.

Julia Amelia and Eva Hearst are back on the duel stage.

Immediately, it rained like a waterfall and the wind blew.

The weather at the venue suddenly became bad!

Eva Hearst flew in the air, and with the light flapping of her wings, the element of wind was aroused, setting off a strong wind and sweeping the audience.

Her ability to control the wind element was already excellent. After being favored by [Sky Overlord], her control ability, which had already reached the critical point, was further improved. She easily broke through that barrier and gained the ability to truly change the sky.

In comparison, the increase in flight speed and altitude is nothing.

Facing Julia Amelia with her own "Rainy Day", Eva Hearst's "Windy Day" just corresponds.

Ordinary venues are basically not enough to look at in front of this ability that can continuously refresh.

After leveling at the field level, Eva Hearst's slightly higher ability than Julia Amelia finally showed.

【Death Bird】, 【Cage Bird】, 【Wind Shadow】, 【Wind King Barrier】, 【War Eagle Totem Beast】, 【Storm Totem Beast】, 【Hurricane Gun Array】...and even 【Wind Girl】!

The heroic soul of [Sky Overlord] once again possessed [Wind Girl], [Wind Girl]'s intelligence increased, [Wind Girl]'s wind element control ability increased, [Wind Girl] and Eva Hester There is a spiritual connection similar to "fetters" between them.

Eva Hearst showed a perfect performance in this duel.

Although Julia Amelia made corresponding strategies, she was ultimately defeated by the Soul of Heroes. With the last summoned [Rain Devil] being killed again, she was completely powerless.

[Shen Yin] turned into background music that reverberated over the venue.

These two contestants, one in front and one in the back, had two duels, and the results were all determined by a slight difference.

Only the previous winner was Julia Amelia.

This time the winner became Eva Hearst.

Eva Hearst's successful comeback is not surprising in the eyes of those in the know.

The strength between them was originally between brothers.

Even without the hero's soul, she still has a chance to win, but the probability is not as high as now.

With the end of this duel, this round of competition between the Elven Warlock Academy and the War Totem Academy finally settled.

Look carefully.

From the victory of the first duel at the Elven Art Academy, to the loss of three consecutive games, and two consecutive victories, and finally failed to hold on in the decisive game, and finally failed.

This period is indeed full of twists and turns, which is unpredictable.

Compared with the Ocean Magic Academy's crushing of the Royal Academy's process, it is really much better.

However, many viewers only care about victory and defeat. The defeat of the Elven Art Academy will inevitably make it unable to hold its head high under the pressure of the War Totem Academy for a long time.

As for how long this period of time is, it depends on the competition of the senior group.

In short, after this duel, although the performance of the Elf Art Academy was also very good, Chelsea, Julia and Nuonuo's performances were all amazing, but leaving in the first round meant that they did not get any points.

——Elf Warlock Academy, exited with zero points!

This day is destined to be the silence of elves and the carnival of orcs.

The people in the territories of both sides and the king who was watching the battle felt the same way.

……

And at St. Marian College.

The orcs were finally proud, swept away the haze of the exhibition match, and pointed at the elves, laughing and laughing.

It's true that the wind and water have turned.

But Eva Hearst, who had just won the final victory on behalf of the War Totem Academy, was uncharacteristically less aggressive during the interview.

Her mind also seemed to be slightly settled because of these two duels.

The world belongs to the victors.

Elf, rout.

……

With the end of the interview, the final review of the morning session began in the open-air duel hall.

Most of the audience is watching carefully, but some of the audience who are not interested have already left the stage one after another.

However, within the academy, there were almost no people who left.

Whether it is a student or a professor, they waited until the review was over before starting to walk outside.

"Dark, do you think the War Totem Academy has a chance of defeating the Ocean Magic Academy?" Werther couldn't help asking on the way.

Dak said casually, "It's not like there is no chance."

The players of the Ocean Magic Academy all have special powers, but the orcs also have [Totem Power].

What people can't grasp is actually the [Abyss Call] of the Ocean Magic Academy.

However, although [Abyss Calling] is related to the power of the ocean, it is not an innate talent, even if it is a student of the Ocean Magic Academy, not everyone knows it.

The Sea Clan who performed on stage last time belonged to senior students.

In the lower grade group, there should be fewer sea people who have mastered [Abyss Call].

Although the Ocean Magic Academy vs. the Royal Academy of the Kingdom was in a crushing situation, it should not be overestimated.

The players of the War Totem Academy are not weak, and there is still a chance.

That's not easy.

It can even be said to be very difficult.

After watching these two rounds of competition this morning, the students of St. Marian College are no longer blindly optimistic.

Ocean Magic Academy didn't show much in the match with Royal Academy.

However, in the duel between the War Totem Academy and the Elven Art Academy, they tried their best.

Just by substituting yourself into it, you can experience their strength.

If one's own strength cannot keep up, it will be difficult to win in a duel with them.

St. Mary's College is actually quite difficult.

However, each academy has its own strengths. The players of the Sky Magic Academy don't focus on physical strength like the orcs and elves.

Judging from what has been shown so far, their style is more inclined to traditional duelists.

Of course, there are always special races that are born with great power.

This in itself is a human disadvantage.

Students of St. Marian College, too, avoid a lot.

The emergence of magic technology was originally intended to smooth out racial disadvantages.

毕竟【5+100】和【10+100】，肯定比【5】和【10】的战力倍数更加接近。

But thinking of this, Dak faintly sensed the imbalance in the existing rules.

The gap in individual ability will indeed make the low-end magic duel unbalanced.

It's not just factors such as muscle strength, speed, and reaction, but also factors such as vitality and endurance.

The duelist's personal end has indeed enriched the tactics of the magic duel, but it has also made the proportion of the influence of the magic technique itself on the outcome relatively smaller.

This point will not have that great impact on high-end magic duels.

However, the new dueling rules cannot only serve high-end duelists, and low-end duelists are the majority.

Even for Shinto rituals, mid-to-low duelists are needed as the foundation.

The purpose of high-end duelists is to break through the upper limit, and mid- and low-end duelists are still needed to lay a good foundation.

These things are difficult to expose without actual operation.

However, this year's [Academy Competition] itself has an experimental nature.

Only when problems are exposed can they be corrected in time.

But how should it be corrected?

Restricting the use of duelist's own power is contrary to the original intention.

The goal of the correction is to increase the proportion of magical technology affecting the outcome of the duel.

Duck couldn't help thinking.

……

The road from the open-air dueling hall to the cafeteria was not long, but Dak thought about many things.

When he was already sitting at the table in the cafeteria without knowing it, a glimmer of inspiration suddenly burst out.

He finally found the sense of disobedience of the magic duel under the existing rules, where is it!

He looked up and saw Diana and Aurora discussing which part of the player's meal was the best.

Emma and Sara are arguing over their differences in watching the game in the morning.

Anna and An Qi were giggling for some unknown reason.

Werther is dealing with Robert who is rushing over.

Dak glanced at his dinner plate, and found that there were two pieces of wagyu beef missing.

……

The presence of duelists in person made the magic duel under the existing rules too complicated.

If you want to make a magic duel more like a magic duel, you can't add points, you can only subtract.

Off-site restrictions are necessary, but the academy has already considered this.

From the current point of view, what needs to be adjusted more is the rules of the field.

Eliminate useless and complicated factors to make the magic duel more streamlined and intuitive, but it cannot put the cart before the horse and violate the original intention.

To do this, just reintroduce an old factor.

That is... the life value system!

Duck realized.

The reason why the magic duel is not like the magic duel.

Not because of the duelist's individual abilities.

It's because of the lack of health system!

The reintroduction of the health system can make magic duel more intuitive, and the damage that each player's attack can cause can also be accurately measured.

And the sense of variance caused by the strength of the duelist's own vitality will also be greatly weakened.

Ambiguity is the real violation of the magic duel under the existing rules.

However, before Hermes awakened, it was very difficult to add such a rule-changing element to the magic duel.

Even if Principal Arte has all the authority, it will take a very long time.

This has to be considered in the long run.

Based on this, many detailed rules can also be changed accordingly.

For example, adding character cards.

Allow duelists to obtain their own character cards when they open duel domains.

The character card is used to display the duelist's attack, defense and health, as well as the skills that can be used in a duel.

If this rule can be realized.

Of course, the character card is just a display, not a real limit.

This can be used as a criterion for judging the rules of the game.

Duelists themselves can also evaluate their own offense and defense in real time through their character cards.

The life value can be fixed at 4000/8000/16000 and so on as before.

Judging the outcome by the life value can completely solve the disadvantages of life and death in every duel.

Now it seems that that is really not a good rule.

It also made some tactical ideas originally possessed by Magic Duel unusable.

Also.

Another benefit of having character cards.

That is, the rules can be artificially specified, and attacks are prohibited, so that magic duels can return to tradition.

——It is not to abandon the new rules, but to make the traditional duel an optional mode.

Magisters are free and omnipotent, and magister duels should not be restricted by fixed rules.

The competition party holds a duel competition, and different characteristics can be displayed through different rules, so that a hundred flowers can flourish.

As for private duels.

Whether to divide life and death, or to distinguish between superior and inferior, that is naturally a personal matter.

……

Dak's thoughts became clearer, but the food on the plate gradually decreased.

"when."

He poked lightly, and the fork had bottomed out.

Looking up again, the companions have basically finished eating.

"Have you figured it out?"

Emma glanced at him and asked casually.

Dak couldn't help laughing and said, "Almost."

Emma said: "Now that we've made up our minds, let's discuss the competition. Sky Magic Academy, our opponent."

Dak nodded and asked, "What do you think?"

But after he looked around for a week, he found that the players were all looking at him.

"Okay." Duck sighed, "I mean, play by ear?"

"Eh? What method is this?" Robert shouted immediately.

"Crack!" Werther patted him hard, and said, "We're going to talk about business, you go."

Robert wasn't annoyed, he picked up the dinner plate and said, "Then I'll go first, and I'll cheer you on from the sidelines then."

Werther waved his hands in disgust and said, "Go, go."

Robert left happily.

Wait for outsiders to leave before continuing the discussion here.

But like Darke said, they don't seem to be able to do much besides improvise.

After all, there is too little information about the Sky Magic Academy.

Among them, there are actually not many who are capable of dealing with the nine-star magic elves that can be specially recruited in the first round.

"Strive for three wins," Emma said, "and hand it over to Duck."

This is the most conservative way of thinking.

"That's not good." Werther said, "It's not good to be timid before fighting."

Emma glared at him and said, "This is a rational discussion."

Witte argued: "No matter what, six wins and four wins are still necessary?"

Emma said: "Why do you count to four!"

Witte scratched his head and looked at his teammates one by one.

Anna and Angie from the second grade burst out two big smiles at him.

Jon shook his head embarrassedly.

In the third grade, Duolong shrugged and said that he really couldn't do it.

Although he has made some progress, it is still too difficult for him to fight against the nine-star magic elves in the first round.

If he needs to go, he will definitely go, but since it is the discussion stage, he rationally removes himself from the scope of combat power.

Werther continued to scan.

Rose shook her head slightly, indicating that she couldn't do it either.

Diana held her head high and held her chest high, as if she was no one to me.

Werther looked at the second grade again.

But he doesn't know anything about Aurora and Vivian in the second grade, and it's not easy to assign the responsibility to the second-year juniors.

but……

"Isn't there?" Werther pointed to himself and said, "Emma, ​​Sara, Diana, and me, there are four of us."

But as soon as he finished speaking, Sarah sighed and said, "You have the holy sword, what do we have?"

Starting with nine stars, not everyone can deal with it.

Sara and Emma are both traditional duelists. They don't have any natural powers, and they can't train like orcs and elves in one vacation.

Although Sara was dissatisfied, she would not try to be brave at this time.

She might have a chance to win, but it's not guaranteed.

And there is no guarantee of victory, it is meaningless to say it at this time.

The same reason.

Emma and her positioning are basically similar, and there is currently no good way to deal with it, and it is impossible to guarantee a high probability of winning.

After deducting Sara and Emma, ​​there are only Werther, Diana and Duck, and the second graders Vivienne and Aurora.

Although there are five of them, among the five, Vivienne is limited by her grade, and her deck strength is not high. If she ends up, it will not be a magic duel, but a "duel".

Moreover, she is not confident that she can deal with the nine-star magic wizard.

After all, it is too outrageous for the third grade to be able to start nine stars.

That's not the weight they should be carrying right now.

Her own strength and tactical thinking are also very strong, so she is considered one.

And in the third grade, although Diana can't be said to be stable, she is still possible. After all, she has also made up for it, and her strengths are online in all aspects.

But Werther himself, if he can't draw the [Holy Sword Curse] in the first round, it is actually very dangerous.

"Speaking of which, where's your holy sword, Werther?" Duck asked softly.

Werther scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "It's broken."

Duck: "..."

Ordinary [Hero Candidate] absorbs the holy sword factor to replenish the blood, although it will be weakened, but it will not completely destroy the [Holy Sword]. Otherwise, if you absorb one handle and one less, which [Hero Candidate] will use it?

But Werther really deserves to be the brave man in the prophecy, that is, he is extraordinary.

Duck said: "So, let's adapt to the situation."

……

After lunch, the group returned directly to the players' lounge in the open-air duel hall.

Then, start resting.

Recharge your batteries, get ready for a duel, and then go all out.

Winning or losing is pessimistic, just do it if you don't accept it.

In short, all possible preparations have been made, and the next step is to see whether the players from the Sky Magic Academy are worthy of cooperation.

As for the Sky Magic Academy, they also returned to the players' lounge, and are currently studying the projection videos that Dake and others have circulated frame by frame.

The focus of their research is naturally Dak Dimon.

In the words of captain Disney Nahum, "a victory is not a victory without an idol".

His companions all agreed.

So he entrusted the important task of defeating Dak to the beloved captain.

Disney laughed and took care of everything.

Others scoffed.

The long-lived species is like this, there are not so many twists and turns, they are weak in nature, and those who bluff like the Nahum siblings are a minority.

If it wasn't for the assignment from above, they wouldn't even care much about the outcome of the [College Competition].

In addition to nature, this is actually affected by the external environment.

There is a saying that has been circulating in Sky City:

"Now I am not his opponent, but 100 years later, 200 years later... I can dance on his grave."

……
