Chapter 195 The Power of Toby





After saying this sentence, the braided hair old man didn’t put forth this topic again. Instead, he turned to Melanctha and said: “Your father sent another message yesterday, he asked when you will return?”


Melanctha was unsurprised. With her hands wrapped around her chest and her eyes fixed into the unknown, she said: “I did not set foot on that path, so I’m not going back yet.”


After hearing this, the braided hair old man laughed, shook his head and stopped asking.


Melanctha raised her eyebrow: “Speaking of which, I’m curious Lord Baroque… What are you doing here? The attitude of the Savage Grottoes side is also very strange. They clearly know your identity but did not expel you.”


The braided hair old man, Baroque, shrugged his shoulders and refused to say. “In theory, I should indeed be expelled. But what if I have a common enemy or a common interest with them?”


As soon as Melanctha heard this, she was stunned. She seemed to understand Baroque’s words. And was about to ask him some more questions, but she saw Baroque pointing to the battle arena:


“The match has started. I wonder how interesting it would be to see Sanders apprentice die in Sky Tower…”


Back at the arena, Angel looked at the woman opposite him.


Selena, a woman, dressed in black with a seemingly blank expression and a bit featureless. Her dress is featureless, her appearance is not very prominent, and the only noticeable thing is probably her short head of hair.— Short black curls like greasy sea cucumbers. With a wet, greasy glow.


Such a woman who doesn’t try to keep up her appearance. Even looking a little sloppy. Angel surprisingly had a good impression of her. Because this woman was the only opponent who has not spoken from beginning to end during their confrontation phase.


No nonsense, just fighting! This is Selena’s only bright spot, and it is also Angel’s point of appreciation.


There was a three-minute standoff before the match began. The two met face to face without saying a word until the countdown timer on the transparent screen at the top of the arena reached zero.


[Match start! Milk Baron Vs Dark Twilight!]


When this row of text appeared on the big screen. Selena, who always had a blank expression, suddenly had her figure disappear from the arena.


“Vanished?!” There was a burst of surprise in the audience.


In the front row of the audience stand, Selena’s twin brother raised a corner on his mouth: “Vanished? Of course not. It’s just that her speed is too fast to see with the naked eye.”


The fat swordsman beside him also laughed and said: “A Blood Branch Wizard Apprentice is really suitable for fighting in this kind of arena. There is magic power suppression during the confrontation phase, but it can’t suppress a bloodline, ah…”


DuPont likes to complain about Selena’s character. But as her brother, how can he really hate Selena? Now hearing others praise his sister, his mood is also very happy as he triumphantly said: “Selena usually doesn’t mobilize her bloodline during the confrontation phase. Now she has spent three minutes activating the bloodline in her body. In this state, Selena is probably qualified to be in the top ten of the fifteenth floor Ranking Table!”


“Please sister, show me some love. Please help me teach that smelly son of a bitch a lesson and make him feel your terror!”


But on the other side, after Selena’s figure disappeared. The match outcome seemed imminently decided.


Selena’s speed is like smoke, occasionally a trace can be seen. But when explored carefully, she has already disappeared.


Everyone knows that Milk Baron, as a junior Wizard, can only climb to Sky Tower’s thirteenth floor by borrowing a sharp tool. Now against Selena, the alchemy weapon’s use is over. Milk Baron was useless if his weapon could not hit his target.


Everyone is predicting that the next time Selena appears. It will definitely be when Milk Baron loses.


Some people have already begun to sigh and think: It is unnecessary to buy tickets especially for such a match. A match which ends in a few seconds is meaningless.


Just then, Selena’s drifting and elusive figure had appeared as expected.


The location she appears is behind an oblique blind spot of Milk Baron’s vision! And Selena is holding up a sharp blade shimmering with a cold light in one hand! Although it is not a ranked alchemy weapon, it was also made by an alchemy apprentice, it is enough to be used to kill in one blow!


“The match is over…” This idea flashed through the minds of every member of the audience at the same time.


Even Melanctha and Baroque, who stood at the far end, shook their heads: “There is no hope of coming back.”


Baroque lamented with a sigh: “Sanders told the news of the Purification Garden opening to a kid who has only been in the Wizard Plane for more than half a year. This is too thoughtless.”


At a time when everyone thought Milk Baron was already on the verge of impending defeat.


A loud noise came from the centre of the arena. Before the audience members could react, the centre of the arena was obscured by a cloud of smoke. It was hard for the audience members to see what was happening inside the smoke.


Is this a spell?


“What’s going on? Why does she still use magic with such great noise when she has already arrived at Milk Baron’s side?” The fat swordsman beside DuPont asked.


Dupont was also full of doubts: “No, Selena is not the kind of person to put on a performance. She also does not have this kind of spell that can raise so much dust, unless…”


Dupont thought of a possibility that made his hair stand on end.


Unless the loud noise and the flying dust weren’t caused by Selena!


The scene on the arena has changed dramatically. The sand and dust obscured the audience members’ line of sight. While the audience is still puzzled over what had happened. Baroque and Melanctha, on the other hand, can clearly see the situation happening in the arena.


“Ha-ha, I didn’t expect little Melanctha to be right… This little fellow really had a secret weapon.” Baroque said.


“What we’ve neglected is the magic power of that humble magic bird… I can’t believe it has such amazing explosive power!” Melanctha lamented.


In both of their eyes, there was no dust flying to obscure their vision.


The dust explosion wasn’t caused by a spell, but by the instantaneous destructive power from the bird on Angel’s shoulder.—


When Selena showed her figure again, she was indeed in Angel’s blind spot. Selena took out a dagger and went to thrust it at Angel. As she was about to watch him bleed out on the spot. The mundane bird standing on Angel’s shoulder suddenly burst out with an astonishing speed and rushed at Selena. It kicked Selena into the centre of the arena with an incredible explosive force with its claw.


The dust that shrouded the arena was the result of Selena stirring up dust when she had been smashed into a crater.


The floor of the Sky Tower battle arena is made of special materials. Without an all-out strike from a peak Third Level Wizard Apprentice, it is unbreakable.


A Third Level Wizard Apprentice doesn’t usually compete in the Sky Tower, so Sky Tower’s battle arena hasn’t been damaged for many years. Not to mention it has never been directly smashed into a human-shaped crater like today!


“It is incredible that the magic power on such a small seabird, which barely counts as a magic bird, can have such amazing explosive force.” Melanctha unconsciously sighed: “Its speed is understandable; the structure and shape of the whole body are biased to a speed type magic bird. But it should not have such power.”


Baroque suddenly closed his eyes and sensed the energy changes in the battle arena with some unknown force. Then he opened his eyes with a hint of surprise in his eyes!


Melanctha looked curiously at Baroque and wondered what had happened to him that surprised him so much.


Baroque sighed, “So that’s what it was. Melanctha, if you use Breaking Falsehood, you will get the answer.”


This shabby bird has broken away from the mundane magic class and had used spell-like abilities at the level of official Wizards. The spell cast by Baroque has the effect of tracing hidden truths that are covered up. In fact, it is a kind of a spell, which traces the historical reality by utilizing clues.


The effect of Breaking Falsehood seems to be similar to “time-reversal” and can show images of the past. In fact, it has nothing to do with the most mysterious energy, “time.” It merely helps with deduction by giving clues to what happened in the past by sticking to all traces of energy in the arena. To put it bluntly, it is a spell similar to a detective solving a crime. A detective is given clues to solve a crime and catch the culprit.


Melanctha used “Breaking Falsehood” and quickly sensed the energy changes that had been born on the bird a few seconds ago.


“This is… the law of gravity!” Melanctha exclaimed, “Did the law of gravity actually appear on this bird? Did the bird understand it last time Sanders had built his Wizard Garden…?”


Baroque sighed with emotion: “That should be the case. The law of gravity on the bird is very shallow. It can only be said to be a gravity law insight. It can also be seen that it has not acquired this ability for very long, being only able to change its own gravity.”


“When Sanders built the Gravity Garden, you and I were nearby and neither of us realized the law of gravity. I learned from other Wizards that none of them understood the law of gravity as well. Unexpectedly… so many talented Wizards did not understand it, but a beast actually did.” Baroque was filled with regrets: “I didn’t think I would be slapped in the face today.”


Baroque primly said: “With this magic bird that has realized a gravity law insight, there should be no obstacles to that kid’s ascension to the top!”



The audience was still muttering, “What happened?”


The smoke and dust finally settled down.


The scene on the arena was clearly reflected in the eyes of the audience. Originally, they had an impatient look in their eyes. When they saw the scene on the arena, all their pupils shrunk.


Milk Baron, which was unanimously denounced by them, was not hurt at all. He stood smartly in the centre of the arena with his Wrist-Mounted Crossbow appearing on his arm. He was taking aim at a crater covered with traces of cobweb marks in the centre of the arena.


That’s right, a crater!


It was a sunken crater about one meter in depth. In the centre of the crater, a woman’s deformed shoulder blade appeared. Her whole body was in tatters, and her eyes were white from fainting. She was on the verge of collapse.


“How is that possible?! In a blink of an eye, Selena’s end is so miserable!”


“What the hell happened to her just now?! The dust covered everything up, damn it!”


“Did any of you see the whole process? Why is that First Level Apprentice unharmed? Selena has almost stepped into the threshold of Third Level Apprentice…”


There was a lot of debate in the audience stands. The most powerful audience member was a Second Level Wizard Apprentice. And they had no clue about what changes had transpired on the arena floor.


Apart from Baroque and Melanctha, the only person present who knew or guessed the truth was only.—


David.
