Chapter 1981 One Attack and One Defense

But now is the first class of the practical course, so naturally there is no need to be so nervous.

But then again.

Before experiencing the baptism of fire and blood, this group of students who came from noble families probably did not know what tension was and what fighting was.

Flowers in a greenhouse can never imagine how cruel nature is.

"Summon, Iron-toothed Rat!"

"Summon, burning vines!"

Sage and Nora concentrated their summoning magic at the same time, and summoned the summoned beast they were most proud of during yesterday's practice.

Saige's familiar is a steel-armed demon ape judged to have high potential. Its attribute is gold, so the summoned beast is naturally a metallic summoned beast.

The Iron-toothed Rat is a typical metallic summoned beast with agile movements and amazing biting ability.

The burning vine is a fire-attributed summoned beast, a special plant-based summoned beast that is good at entangling and restricting.

These two summoned beasts are considered to be relatively powerful in combat among the low-level summoned beasts in their respective attributes.

"Teacher, I'm ready."

Saige looked at the iron-toothed rat in front of him, which was almost half a man tall, and said aloud.

The appearance of the iron-toothed rat is not much different from that of normal rats, except that it is much larger and the fur on its body also shines with a metallic luster.

And there are two more metal front teeth that look like small shovels.

At first glance, you can tell that he is very aggressive and hard to mess with.

"Teacher, I'm ready too."

Nora also followed and said to the actual combat instructor.

Burning vines, from the outside, look like a pile of ordinary flaming red vines, brightly colored and eye-catching.

But don’t underestimate this bunch of seemingly powerless vines.

As a rare plant-based summoned beast, Burning Vine also inherits the disadvantage of being unable to move frequently.

However, within the range that the burning vines can reach, summoned beasts of the same level can rarely find their opponents.

“One offense and one defense, it’s a very typical duel.”

The actual combat instructor recorded it in the book in his hand, then nodded and said: "Okay, let's start fighting."

The words just fell.

Saige raised his hand and waved: "Iron-toothed rat, come on!"

"Zhizhi——!"

The iron-toothed rat made a harsh cry as if in response, and then rushed towards the burning vine like a sharp arrow from a string.

In theory, battles between summoners will not directly attack the summoner himself.

Because in a real battle, the summoner will leave a certain amount of magic power to prepare for emergencies at any time.

And there is a familiar guarding him.

Therefore, this kind of sneak attack is very difficult to be effective. On the contrary, it will put your summoned beast at a disadvantage.

And once this rule is broken, assassinations become commonplace.

So many summoners must have trouble sleeping and eating, and everyone is in danger.

Therefore, summoners who dare to break the rules will inevitably become the public enemy of all other summoners.

Of course, this rule is only between summoners.

For a warrior, it would be foolish not to directly attack the summoner himself during battle.

"Burning vine, stop it!"

Nora also followed suit and gave the order.

This is not because Nola's reaction is slower than the match, mainly because the Iron-toothed Rat is on the offensive side, while the Burning Vine is on the defensive side.

Naturally, we have to wait for the iron-toothed rat to take the lead in attacking before we can start to defend.

As soon as these words came out, the burning vines immediately took action, and a large number of vines began to wave, beating the incoming iron-toothed rat.

The movement was so fast that the air was filled with fiery red afterimages.

However, the iron-toothed rat, which is half a man tall, is surprisingly agile.

He shuttled back and forth between the burning vines, pausing from time to time, waving his small shovel-like front teeth, easily biting off a vine, and then continued to dodge the attacks of the burning vines.

Low-level plant-based summoned beasts do not have strong self-healing abilities.

The bitten vines fell on the ground of the practical classroom like dead branches.

As the iron-toothed rats continued to shuttle and gnaw, fewer and fewer branches of the burning vine were waving in the air.

It was almost impossible to resist.

Sage watched the development of the battle and couldn't help but smile.

"Classmate Nora, I accept this battle."

His movements were still gentlemanly, but the pride on his face was clearly visible.

Saige secretly thought to himself, even if he loses in the familiar comparison, what does it matter?

The battle between summoners is not only determined by the strength of the familiar.

The students who were watching the battle also saw the situation of this battle at this time, and they couldn't help but sigh: "Even if you have an excellent level familiar, you may not be proficient in fighting."

“Nola’s performance is so poor, I don’t know if Angel will be better.”

"How can that be better? The two of them stay together all day long, so it's probably just the same thing."

"What a waste of such good luck."

The envy and jealousy of the students towards Nora and Angel all turned into resentment at this moment and were vented out.

My peers who are more qualified and luckier than me, yet they perform so poorly.

If you don't make fun of this, how can you be worthy of yourself?

"Tsk, these guys only dare to talk about others behind their backs! If you can, just do it yourself!"

Angel, who was also watching the battle, felt quite unhappy when he heard this.

It was the same in the familiar summoning ceremony before.

He has no skills at all, but he is very good at sarcasm.

But Angel also knew in his heart that this was a common characteristic of most nobles.

When you gain power, they rush to fawn over you faster than anyone else, eager to please you without even having to worry about their skin.

However, when you lose power, they will definitely add insult to injury faster than when they try to please you. They would like to trample you to death with just one kick.

So after coming to Flame Academy for such a long time, Angel only had Nora as her friend.

This is not only because their identities and family backgrounds are not far apart.

More importantly, it’s because Nora has a simple personality and won’t say one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes.

"Don't worry, Angel. Even if they are blind, has your eyesight also declined?"

Qi Le looked at Angel's unhappy look, but said something tepid.

"Huh? What do you mean..."

When Angel heard this, he looked back at Qi Le.

"What I mean is, you don't have to think too much, you just need to take a good look now."

"You still have a lot to learn about how to fight."

Qi Le shook his head slightly and did not announce the answer, but asked Angel to continue reading.
