The strategy adopted by Lolo's team was not a problem, and the division of labor was clear. At the beginning of the mission, the Thief with the best eyesight climbed to the roof of the library and monitored the target's movements. He used hand signals to inform his two companions of the target's direction, while Lolo and the other female Swordsman were responsible for the next part of the mission.
So far, the three of them had a tacit understanding with each other. Whether it was the Thief or the female Swordsman, none of them deliberately hindered them. This might be related to the fact that Lolo wasn't too famous among the Magician candidates, so no one targeted her for the time being. The three of them got along well with each other, and their goal was to successfully pass the second part of the mission.
Not long after, the Thief on the roof of the library discovered the "fugitive" they were supposed to capture. He gestured to the team on the ground, and so Lolo and the female Swordsman quietly approached the target. However, the target was obviously very vigilant. He chose a very spacious area, sat in the center, and looked around from time to time. He would rather give up hiding than give his pursuers any chance to launch a sneak attack.
Lolo felt that the situation was a little tricky. She and the female Swordsman could only sneak behind a small tree closest to the target. As soon as Lolo reached the tree, she realized that she was in trouble. The guy had actually set up a magic trap here. This was too much of a violation of the rules.
Fortunately, it was only a simple magic trap, and it didn't cause any damage. However, the target had already received the alarm. When he turned around and saw the two of them, he immediately cast Invisibility to escape.
At this time, the female Swordsman had no other choice but to look at her partner expectantly.
Although Invisibility was only a Tier 2 support spell, it had always been very popular among Magicians. It was especially useful in low-level battles. Those low-level physical classes were basically helpless against Invisibility, but if it was a battle between Magicians, Invisibility wouldn't be as useful.
Eye of Truth was the best spell to break Invisibility, but it was as high as Tier 5. Aside from that, there were many other spells that could also restrain Invisibility, including the Detection spell that all Tier 1 Magicians could use. Although Detection couldn't completely break the target's Invisibility, it could detect the target's general location. This way, when paired with the female Swordsman with outstanding athletic ability, there was a high chance of capturing the target.
This was also the reason why the second part of the test was called cooperation.
The question maker's idea was very good. Detection was one of the most practical low-level spells, and every Grade 1 Magician could master it. Even the weakest Magician participating in the examination had reached Grade 1, so logically speaking, they could all use Detection.
Unfortunately, there was an exception. Although Luo Luo was a Tier 3 Magician, she was one of the rare Magicians who matured quickly. With the help of a certain someone, she managed to master two Tier 3 Magicians in the shortest time possible. However, she did not make much progress in Tier 1 Magicians. Up until a month ago, she was still relying on Illumination to get by. Recently, she had learned a few new Tier 1 Magicians, but unfortunately, none of them included Detection.
Therefore, the two of them could only watch as the target ran away. After half an hour had passed, the Invisibility lost its effect, and the Thief once again discovered the target's tracks. So, he hurriedly sent out a signal from the rooftop, but when the two of them arrived, the result was not much different from the first time.
The female Swordsman was the first to lose her patience. Although the target only had one chance to use Invisibility, almost an hour had passed, and the target had just used Invisibility for the second time. According to the previous calculations, the target would be unable to use Invisibility for half an hour, but in reality, it would take time to locate the target and rush over. Based on the current progress, the target could use Invisibility for the last time until the end of the mission.
At this rate, their side had no chance of winning at all. The female Swordsman was already discouraged. She did not want to run back and forth anymore, so she simply gave up and walked to the side to wait for the test to end.
The Rogue was still hesitating. Although he did not have to run around in his current position, he still had to be exposed to the sun. It was just past noon, so the UV rays were still quite strong. His heart was also wavering. Most importantly, the girl from the Swordsman class had already given up. Only he and Luo Luo were left. Even if they persisted, the chances of completing the quest were very slim.
When Rob walked over, he saw such a situation.
The future Supreme Wizard was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the little girl to choose the most versatile Detection Spell during her tutoring on Tier 2 and 2 Spells. However, Luo Bu soon realized the reason behind it, and a trace of astonishment surfaced on his face. This girl … Is she really treating me as an imaginary enemy and seriously preparing for war?
As a Swordsman, Luo Bu was undoubtedly best at frontal combat. He didn't have any stealth skills, so Detection was useless against him. If Luo Luo wanted to defeat him in the Student Council's assessment, she didn't need Detection.
But then again … Is she not going to deal with the others?
Lolo did not notice the arrival of someone. At this moment, she was furrowing her brows, desperately searching through her memory, trying to find a spell that could replace Detection from her limited arsenal to deal with the situation before her. Unfortunately, the few spells that she had mastered did not seem to provide her with such an option. As time passed, Lolo's expression became more and more solemn.
Rob sighed. Silly child, so why is she so obsessed with magic in this situation?
According to the rules, during the assessment mission, one was not allowed to ask for help from outsiders, nor was one allowed to communicate with outsiders. Otherwise, it would be treated as cheating. However, this kind of thing was not a problem for the future Supreme Magister Your Honor. At this moment, a female Swordsman carrying a cup of water passed by Lolo. Rob lowered his head and quickly walked towards her, bumping into her. The cup in the female Swordsman's hand also fell. Fortunately, the future Supreme Magister Your Honor reacted quickly and caught the cup for her. However, the water in the cup spilled on the ground.
After that, Rob apologized to the female Swordsman. The female Swordsman was a gentle and quiet type, so she waved her hand to indicate that it was fine. After that, the two of them brushed past each other.
