Rob had gone from being the son of an unknown grocery store owner to the proud disciple of Steins and the future patron saint of the human race in just a few short years.
People couldn't help but be a little doubtful. Even though he had entered the ranks of a sixth-grade Magister at the age of twenty and had a strong performance, many people were still skeptical of those who said that he was on par with Roland and had the future of magic.
However, the few big shots of the Magic Association, Steins, Arbus, Demain, and the others, seemed to be firmly convinced of this.
This also made many people puzzled as they did not understand why these big shots would value a young man so much.
And today, Rob's performance on the peak of Anarep Mountain had answered this question in a sense.
Among his many talents, the core and most powerful one was his ability to learn.
It was because of this ability to learn that Steins and Demain decided to lock him up in the tower because they could not bear the fact that the young man would use this precious talent on anything other than magic. In the eyes of the principal and vice principal, this was the most shameful waste of talent. Apart from that, they also had the thought of prying into his limits.
However, eight years had passed, and the two still did not get the answer they wanted.
In the end, Rob was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. Even so, in the face of the constantly shortening deadline, he was still able to complete the required homework before the deadline, which made the two old men click their tongues in amazement.
Perhaps even the young man himself did not realize how powerful this talent was.
Until today, in the face of unprecedented and terrifying pressure, in the hopeless situation where he could not see any hope, this talent finally broke out completely without reservation.
Even so, it was still not enough.
It was definitely not an easy task to understand and use a new set of rules to restructure magic. For most Mages, it might not result in any results in their lifetime.
The reason why Rob was able to grasp this brand-new natural order in a mere two minutes was inseparable from two things. The first was the brooch secret treasure that he obtained in the Endless Forest Sea. The strange structure of the brooch had helped him unravel Merlin's Magic Circle, Mystic Lock. Today, this structure had played a role in his analysis of the Light Giant's natural order.
The second was the focus of his recent research — mimicry magic. When Luo Bu began his research on mimicry magic, he had a vague conjecture. Holy power and magic actually came from the same source. It was the same power that was forcibly divided into two parts. The only part that was missing in Roland's magic system was the part related to life, and the divine magic represented by healing just happened to symbolize the power of life.
It was just that this conjecture was so shocking that even Rob himself felt that it was wishful thinking. Until today, when the giant of light pointed at him, it finally confirmed certain things.
From a certain point of view, the thing that appeared on Ogamil Peak could be considered as half a teacher to Luo Bu. When he was confused and doubtful, it placed the correct answer in front of him.
And it was precisely because of the various foreshadowing and preparations that Rob was able to decipher the natural order in less than two minutes and use it for his own purposes.
However, the time left for him was ultimately too little. He could barely integrate this natural order into the most common Fireball spell. More complicated spells would require more time to study, but it seemed like the Light Giant before him did not intend to give him this opportunity.
In the next moment, the Light Giant raised its arm again.
This time around, there was nothing fancy about its attack. It was just a simple palm strike that landed on Luo Bu's head with the weight of Mount Tai. The clouds were pierced through by this palm strike, and the thunder that filled the sky also fell silent at this moment.
Under the terrifying pressure, Rob's expression became increasingly calm. He wasn't anxious at all. Only when the giant hand was less than three feet away from his head did he stretch out his hand and draw Starfall from his waist. He drew an arc in front of his chest and finally stopped above his head.
The sword and the fingertip clashed. The giant hand didn't move an inch, but the future Supreme Magus Your Honor couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. However, at the next moment, the magical crystal at the tip of his magic staff lit up.
Fireballs rose one after another, forming a wall of fire that blocked the giant hand.
However, this time, the Light Giant was prepared. The palm suddenly emitted a bright light. When the light met the fire wall, it evaporated and melted like water meeting fire. But at the same time, the fireballs were extinguished one after another.
In the end, victory or defeat became a simple contest of magic power.
The magic power in Rob's body burned and dissipated rapidly. On the other hand, the Light Giant also dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, compared to the youth, the Light Giant's huge size undoubtedly gave it a huge advantage. If this continued, Rob would obviously be at a disadvantage.
Until a crisp cry came from the horizon. Bevinadet flapped her red wings and flew out of the snowstorm. She circled around the palm and landed on Rob's shoulder.
In the next moment, the youth's magic power that was on the verge of drying up became abundant once again.
The Light Giant seemed a little surprised, but it didn't panic. Its body had already been consumed by about a third. At this rate, the massive amount of magic stored in Bevinadet's body would completely exhaust it to death.
However, there was a reason why the Light Giant chose such a simple and violent attack.
Sensing the movement of the surrounding magic elements, Rob let out a soft cry of surprise.
At the next moment, the Light Giant's chest suddenly caved in. With its heart as the origin, the surrounding magic elements began to surge into its body frantically.
It was like a balloon that expanded abruptly. Its originally shrunken and transparent body became huge and clear once again. In just a few breaths, it grew even bigger than before.
Not only had all the magic power that he had lost previously been replenished, but he had also become stronger than ever before.
On the other hand, even though Rob had Bevinadet's help, how could their magic power contend against an entire world? The pressure on Rob's shoulders increased. Starfall sank in his hand. This famous sword was about to follow in the footsteps of its revenge.
The Light Giant's featureless face didn't reveal any excitement. This outcome was within its expectations. Rob's performance tonight could be said to be outstanding. If it were anyone else, perhaps they wouldn't be able to last until now. However, this wouldn't change anything.
