As the center of the north, Maia City is bustling and noisy during the day. More than three million people live, work, and have fun. Whether it is ordinary tourists who come to enjoy the scenery of the north or the rich people who come to the famous local casinos, they can find their own fun here. People walk leisurely on the streets, buy snacks and desserts on the street, chat with family and friends, and the large bathhouse in Maia City is even more famous throughout the country. From time to time, well-known scholars come to take baths and give lectures.

But once it's night, everything is very different.

People with dangerous auras replaced tourists and appeared on the streets in the dark. Most of them came and went alone, and only some people in the robes of the wizard would be in groups. These guys with bad eyes and unawares were obviously carrying various prohibited weapons on them, but both the guards and passers-by pretended not to see them and kept their distance.

Not only in cities, but also in the satellite city of Maia City and surrounding towns, and there are also huge spells and fighting sounds in the wilderness. Fighting with one word is the standard label for this type of dangerous people.

Although most people will go outside the city to fight and give face to the local Maia family, there will be a few murderous people fighting in the street every month and tearing down half of the street.

And such situations are all thanks to the legend of Dragon Ball.

Legend has it that the dragon ball that can communicate with the ancestor dragon and realize all wishes. Even if it is not used as a material for making wishes, it is also an extremely powerful magic prop. After using the dragon ball to summon powerful dragon and snake genus, those who hold the dragon ball can obtain some of the power of dragon and snake. If you successfully make a wish, then this power can be permanently retained in your bloodline and inherited to your family.

How could it be that such a great power is not moved? Therefore, since twelve years ago, a mysterious man holding a dragon ball appeared on the northern border, restless extraordinary people around the world have gradually gathered here, including mercenaries, bounty hunters, well-known magicians, and great masters of the empire. Some of them have wishes that must be made to achieve, or that only the dragon ball can be saved, but some are just for curiosity, or other purposes.

So, when night falls, it is the stage for the extraordinary. All the people who have not obtained the Dragon Ball use their own means to find the traces of the Dragon Ball.

For various reasons, lucky people who already hold dragon balls also walk at night, looking for their own kind, that is, their own goals and enemies.

On the outskirts of Maia, a town near the woods, the fully armed wandering magician Evelyn hides her figure among the flying snow. Although the ice-type magic "Snow Hidden Technique" is rare, it is far more reliable in a specific environment than the invisibility technique and the transformation of the virtual spirit.

The female mage with long hair with buns and thick glasses and lenses is a person holding a dragon ball.

Although it sounds incredible, Evelyn has never had any wish to make a wish to the ancestor dragon to fulfill. As a dropout at the Imperial Mage Academy, her greatest wish in her life may be to step on the practical tutor with a mindfulness and be dismissed by the academy for failing to pass the actual combat class... But for this reason, it is really a suicide act to involve herself in the battle for dragon balls related to various dragons and demon dragons.

But life is not reasonable.

As a purely academy mage, the theoretical school who was half a beat slow to fight, Evelyn got the dragon balls in the jewelry box at that time when she was sorting out her grandmother's relics in her hometown.

At that time, she had not figured out what the bead that looked like a magic item was, so she tried to activate it remotely with a semi-autonomous magic array. To be honest, who could guess that the magic bead that looked ordinary was a dragon ball? There are at least hundreds of thousands of magic weapons made into bead style in this world, and who could guess it?

In short, she summoned a terrifying demon dragon from a distant world with snake hair.

Unlike many people's concrete impressions, dragons and snakes are originally one, and at first they were symbols of the negative side of heaven and earth. The earth, rivers, sun, wind and clouds... These are the sources and powers of dragons and snakes.

The essence of a dragon is developed from the original snake. In the Kerba Empire, which was founded by the dragon ball and created by the ancestor dragon, the dragon and snakes that were praised have no specific image or specifications, but only relevant elements. As long as the conditions meet, any powerful dragon and snake can be called the god dragon and demon dragon, and then worshipped.

The snake-haired and snake body, the giant monster with strong scales and a hideous face, calls itself "Gorgon" and is the descendant of the mother god of the earth in another world. This giant spirit born by the mother god is naturally a standard genus of dragon and snake. It is also unexpectedly not a purely ferocious monster, and has considerable wisdom.

"Evelyn, you are not good at fighting. If you don't talk about the gods and heroes in my world, you can't even reach the passing line for ordinary humans."

The vague snake-haired giant monster had a disdainful tone, but the content was unexpectedly taught: "You are not good at playing on the spot, and encounters are particularly unfavorable to you. So if you want to win the final war, you either attack or fight a positional battle, or prepare for the magic circle to hide. I'll fight, and you promise not to die."

The summoned dragon needs huge magic power to maintain its original manifestation. Most of this magic power is spent by the dragon ball, but the quality of the summoner itself is also very important.

Evelyn's conditions can only be considered as normal. In order to save magic and hide her body, Gorgon turned into a virtual body and stayed beside the wandering mage.

"Well, thank you." Evelyn nodded slightly at the giant demon's suggestion, then helped her glasses.

Originally, after summoning Gorgon, she thought about whether to hand over the Dragon Ball to the Empire official. After all, who doesn’t know the degree of the Dragon Ball War? A trainee mage like herself who is below the ordinary level is afraid that other dragons will die on the spot with just one look.

However, it is precisely because of ordinary people that sometimes it is difficult to let go of this opportunity that has come from heaven.

A dropout from the Master Academy is essentially no different from an ordinary person, and her family background can only be considered decent. After losing the school’s subsidies and subsequent channels for progress, she has no chance of going further in the extraordinary path.

If it were not for the help of Dragon Ball, Evelyn would not have been able to become a formal mage in her life. At that time, she would definitely be married to her family and spend her whole life as a housewife.

When Evelyn thought of this, her heart was as if she was shattered.

She likes magic, spells, and all the miracles that can be created by her own hands. Indeed, she is not good at fighting, but why can't she explore the mystery of magic? It's not the era of the elves war twenty years ago. If she can't fight, she can also be a magic engineer and can also contribute to the empire. Why can't she give her a chance?

Dragon Ball is an opportunity for those who are unwilling to change their destiny. Now, in the third year of holding Dragon Ball, under the power brought by Gorgon, Evelyn has gone from the initial apprentice mage to the advanced level of elite mage. In terms of paper strength, she is already stronger than her former teacher. How can she let go of this opportunity?

Even if she died, she would rather die in this dream than live a life that had nothing to do with magic for the rest of her life.

Now, knowing that the seven Dragon Ball holders have all arrived in the north, Evelyn plans to use her superb snow hidden technique to go to the area where the "summoning reaction" was not long ago to investigate - that should be the place where the last Dragon Ball holder summoned the dragon. If you can find some clues, you can get the lead in future battles.

As for the battle... thinking of this, Evelyn held her glasses. Although she was indeed not good at dealing with emergencies, the power she obtained from Gorgon made her attacks almost impossible to avoid.

That is the ability that suits her best.

However, before Evelyn could come to the area where Su Zhou was summoned, her hair suddenly had no wind and was automatically bent like a small snake, pointing to the high altitude in the distance.

It can be seen that it was no longer a hair, but a really thin small snake with small scales. Now, these small snakes are squirming their bodies nervously, forming a battle form, aiming at the high altitude ahead.

"I was discovered."

Not good at fighting does not mean that people are stupid. A slow reaction does not mean that they can't even avoid being prepared. The next moment, Evelyn's body turned into a ball of scattered snow dust and cold wind, dissipating in the heavy snow day and night in the north.

And in an instant, a straight lightning-like stream of light tore the dark night and the snow in the sky, piercing through the atmosphere and the cold wind, and directly bombarding the area where Evelyn is located.

Boom! A loud roar sounded, and the hot breeze like the sun spread in all directions. All the snowflakes and snow within a radius of hundreds of meters quickly melted into the formation and turned into clouds that soared into the sky.

After all the ice and snow melt, what can be seen and left in place is a long arrow made of some kind of plant branches and feathers in the earth and rock that has penetrated into magma.

The material of the long arrow is amazingly tough. Even in the lava of thousands of degrees, there is no sign of burning. However, this amazing arrow did not hit his target. Evelyn disappeared without a trace at this time. Even the sneak attacker who had seen the Snow Hidden Technique before, could not find any trace of the other party.

"Next time remember, don't act rashly."

At this moment, among the clouds, a young mountain hunter who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, came to explore the last area of ​​the summoned dragon, and hid himself in the thick snow clouds, observing the world only with pure and powerful magical induction.

At this time, the hunter boy looked quite upset and blamed himself for not hesitating for a moment because his opponent was a human woman.

And beside him, there was a gentle spiritual voice entering the soul, teaching the young man: "The most important thing in the Dragon Ball War is the collection of intelligence. If you don't have the belief and determination to kill with one blow, don't expose your information. If you want to achieve the final victory, the best way is to hide behind the scenes, observe everyone's every move, design relevant tactics and plans, and then hunt for opportunities."

"This time, you have exposed your strong ranged attack ability, and everyone will be wary of it next time. Remember this lesson."

"Sorry..." Since I didn't kill the enemy, I could only leave immediately. The boy holding the bow immediately shook his wings and fled to the distance. During the flight, he was quite frustrated: "I have practiced for so long, but I still messed up... I can easily shoot the monsters, but for some reason, I subconsciously hesitate to people..."

"There is no need to say sorry, after all, this is just a game for me, but for you, it is the future and life - and if you are not such a kind person, it is impossible to summon me."

The gentle voice didn't care about it, and He smiled relaxedly: "But remember, although you didn't know them before, the moment you picked up the dragon ball, you were destined to be the enemy of life and death."

For a moment, both the attacked party and the attacking party fled far away, leaving only huge lava pits that quickly turned black and cooled down in the wind and snow.

This is also the norm in the Dragon Ball War - after all, there are six competitors, and each one has the support of the dragon and snake that is passed down by myths. Even if he killed an opponent with his stronger hard power, there are five other strong men, Huang Bi, who have already analyzed themselves, who are behind.

Of course, there may be dragons and demons who do not like to hide, and they will sway and fight head-on with other competitors, but this is just that no matter what historical myth, dragons and snakes do not have this attribute.

Even Su Zhou wouldn't.

At this time, Su Zhou also noticed the huge explosion sound from the other end of the wilderness.

"Interesting, it's already started fighting?"

He also possesses dragon blood, or in other words, he himself is a brand new divine dragon. Su Zhou can naturally sense the huge magical aura that is vaguely transmitted from afar and is not very similar to humans. He can be sure that both the attacking party and the attacked party just now were competitors holding dragon balls.

——It seems that I want to explore the magical breath left by my arrival? Or look for clues? Fortunately, I was cautious and erased them all before leaving... However, since someone has started fighting, I must do something.

The dragon balls have a sense of mutual induction. If the dragon is not summoned, it may not be able to sense it. However, if the dragon has been summoned, the sensitivity will become stronger and stronger, especially when the seven dragon balls summoned the dragon gather together, it is itself a symbol of the opening of the "wishing ceremony".

Since then, Dragon Ball holders have been able to stay in the area where they gather. If they are together, they will interfere with each other and cannot determine where they are. However, if they leave, the whereabouts of the leaver will be equivalent to making public to the other six competitors, which is basically equivalent to suicide.

As the battle intensifies and the number of competitors decreases, the sensing between dragon balls will become stronger and stronger. When only the last two are left, basically any method of covering up their whereabouts will fail. Although if one party is invisible, it should be invisible or invisible, the other party can at least know that the other party is here.

Su Zhou was very confident in his strength, but he didn't want to be the first to be shot. Since someone had already taken action, he would go over and see if he could be the oriole again.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked at the bonfire, Aola, who was repeating his previous teaching, said: "Girl, you're ready to leave."

"—Our purpose is to seize the dragon ball, not to kill people or kill dragons. If there is anything, it is best to solve the problem peacefully. Force is the last choice, let alone kill people casually. This is not good..."

At this time, Aola was writing a new thinking logic according to Su Zhou's previous requirements. She seriously repeated Su Zhou's words: "It is wrong to kill people randomly, it is not good, but if it is a bad person, it is necessary to take the initiative to attack."

Because Su Zhou had already issued a order to set off, Ora quickly stood up and approached the young man.

She looked less than ten years old, but in fact she was only three days old. She was so petite that she couldn't stand up to Su Zhou's waist. When she held Su Zhou's outstretched hand obediently, Ora pointed out the conflict in Su Zhou's previous words: "Su Zhou, it is wrong to kill people randomly, but they can kill evil people. These two codes of conduct conflict."

"Yes, I will point out conflicts, and I can teach you."

Su Zhou was quite satisfied with this, not afraid of asking questions, but fear of not asking questions. He drove the Lan Shin, took off with Ola, and went straight into the clouds from the wind and snow. During the flight, he continued his teaching that had not ended before: "The evil people are different from ordinary people. The evil people are special. They will threaten others, so they will be attacked and killed - Ola, you must also remember that if you want to do evil, then be prepared to be attacked. On the contrary, if you don't want to be attacked, then don't do evil."

"In fact, this is also a kind of fear - because fear can be attacked and even die, so it is not against most people and become a part of the public."

"That's, fear."

Nodding seriously, Ola summed up Su Zhou's words: "People are united and become human beings because of fear."

Su Zhou nodded with satisfaction. Although things were not that simple, it was enough for an artificial human who had no common sense to understand this step.

"About this, so I'm going to teach you what 'fear' is before - only if you understand what fear and death are, can you know the meaning of good and evil and life.

And this is the foundation of human beings. As for the follow-up, you have learned to "question" and "inquiry". Then the next course begins in this aspect - it's not that I brag, but I am a real expert in this aspect."

Su Zhou's teaching from scratch now seems to be quite effective, but soon, in the air, the young man who noticed something turned solemn.

"It seems that everyone is thinking of going together - there are quite a few people around, and there are still several dragon ball holders."

Looking down at the ground, there were many spiritual light spots that were approaching the explosion area, representing the extraordinary. After thinking for a while, Su Zhou stretched out his hand and directly condensed a cloud around him.

"Stay here, I'll go and investigate the information. I may have a tentative fight, don't be afraid."

And Ola naturally would not be afraid. The white-haired girl just blinked and said calmly: "But you just taught me what fear is."

"Not bad, I can apply what I have learned."

Su Zhou was stunned for a moment, then haha. Then, he did not say much, but pulled out his world tree spear and turned his head to speed upwards.
Chapter completed!
