In the Mage Web's big library, countless mages were paying attention to the Magical Beast Wasteland mission. After Tang Shidao accepted the 50 mana "live broadcast," more mages were paying attention to this matter. Some of these mages were newbies, and some had completed the Magical Beast Wasteland mission before. Seeing Tang Shidao and the others pass three levels in a row without even using spells, they were extremely shocked.
Of course.
Some of these spectating mages were extraordinary, even dozens of times stronger than the bronze dragon itself.
Were they unable to complete the Magical Beast Wasteland mission?
No!
Of course not!
The strongest group could burn the entire bronze spirit planet to ashes, or turn the entire surface into a sea of lava. Sky beasts, sea beasts, they could get rid of them like squashing flies. Forest of Ridicule or Maze of Lies, they could flatten it with one spell.
Since they had such great power, why had no one completed the Magical Beast Wasteland mission?
The reason was simple.
If a group of ants said to you, "Human, we will offer you a hundred earthworms, please help us move the ant nest to a high place."
Will you do it?
No!
Absolutely not!
Mages who were stronger than the bronze dragon did not care about the bronze dragon's reward at all, just like an emperor did not care about the reward of a subject. Not to mention accepting assistance missions, the bronze dragon did not even have the qualifications to give them offerings. At their level, they had to accept missions that were tens of thousands of mana or even hundreds of thousands of mana. They felt embarrassed to compete with a group of newbies for small missions.
Thinking about it this way.
Why would these tyrants pay attention to Tang Shidao?
The reason was simple.
The Mage Web was like an online game to mages, characters who were proficient in "strategy" would never be overshadowed. Even the most outstanding general needed a strategist, and even the smartest king needed a minister. The tyrants could do things that were 'under their power', but what about things that were beyond their power?
Mages could not be berserkers.
However, not all mages were wise.
Besides, not every wise person was proficient in mission strategy.
After all, every race and every person had something they were best at. Currently, in Tang Shidao's small team, the stone-eating monster was good at brute force, Lei Shi was good at defense, the green-eyed fox was good at alchemy and puppetry, and Meimo was good at fire magic. One day in the future, would Meimo pay more attention to alchemy because she didn't understand alchemy? Would she neglect her fire magic, which she was best at?
No!
Definitely not!
After being a hundred times stronger, Meimo would still be a master of fire magic, and the green-eyed fox would still be an expert in alchemy. If one day Meimo, who was a hundred times stronger, encountered an alchemy problem, would she want to practice alchemy by herself or ask for the help of her friend, the green-eyed fox?
The answer was almost certain: ask a friend for help.
What was Tang Shidao good at?
Quest guide!
This meant that … he was of great use to anyone!
According to the difficulty of the Magical Beast Wasteland, a Guardian King would be able to flatten the Maze of Lies with 100% certainty. There was no need to think at all. A single spell would be enough to flatten the maze. However, if Shakyamuni encountered a task that gave him a headache, such as' Dragon God's Labyrinth 'or' Shakyamuni's Secret Chamber ', would he still be able to clear them?
Of course not!
At that time, he would need an expert in 'maze clearing'.
Seeing Tang Shidao clear the Forest of Ridicule, the Maze of Lies, and the River of Gluttony, the Mages were convinced that he was someone who was good at using his brain. It wasn't that he was very intelligent, but that he had special experience with these tasks. It wasn't that no one had thought of these methods, but those who had thought of them had already become stronger and didn't want to accept the bronze dragon's commission.
After watching the three tasks.
Some smart people in the Mage Network nodded, indicating that this method was not bad. They had thought of this before.
Of course, they wouldn't say it out loud.
Veterans had their own experiences, and rookies had their own experiences. Everyone had their own roles and walked their own paths. A powerhouse sweeping through small tasks was equivalent to a max level account sweeping through a novice village in a game. Others couldn't do anything to you, but they definitely hated you in their hearts … It wasn't a good thing to be hated by everyone in the Mage Network.
Even someone as strong as the scarecrow didn't dare to bear everyone's anger.
Therefore …
The spectating Mages all had the same thought: Perhaps one day, they would need the lucky Tang Shidao's guide.
Even if they didn't use it now, there was no harm in understanding this person more.
At this moment …
Copper Spirit Continent. Tang Shidao and the others were hurrying along. The bronze dragon's heart could guide them to their destination, so they didn't have to worry about getting lost. After passing the first three tasks, there were more routes to choose from. When they encountered the Elegy Mountains, Tang Shidao decisively took a detour. Under the circumstances where the bronze dragon's lifespan was limited, only a fool would deliberately force his way through.
The Mage Network saw this and nodded in agreement.
Detour.
It was a very smart choice, and also a very responsible choice for the bronze dragon who commissioned it.
"Captain Tang, if you can complete this task, I believe you'll have a certain reputation in the Mage Network." The green-eyed fox chatted as they hurried along.
"Why do you say that?" Tang Shidao liked to listen to the lectures of veterans, which could yield a lot of benefits.
"Because of your special ability. Previously, everyone called you the lucky Tang Shidao because everyone believed that you had divination or a way to safely escape. Everyone liked to make friends with such lucky people. Now that you've quickly completed the first half of the task in the Magical Beast Wasteland, this means that you're the real deal. In the Mage Network, every Mage has their own troublesome tasks. Powerhouses have extraordinary strength, but there are existences ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times stronger than them. Even those Mages who can shatter stars with a flick of their fingers have their own difficulties. The bookshelves in the great library have no top, which means that there's no upper limit to one's strength! "
"You mean that if such people unfortunately fall, the ruins they leave behind will be difficult to break into?"
"That's right. For people who can shatter stars to fall, the Mage Secret Rooms, Mazes, and Mobile Castles they leave behind must have special mechanisms or powerful guards. To these great people, a land, a country, or a planet are all superficial. Therefore, they definitely won't easily hand over their 'inheritance' to their successors. The successors can be weak, but at least they have to prove themselves in terms of intelligence and wisdom. "The green-eyed fox said.
Meimo continued, "For example, me. I relied on hard work and wisdom to obtain a good inheritance, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to reach my current level in such a short time. "
During the conversation, the Rock Eater and Lei Shi ran back.
The Rock Eater spoke first, "There's a big fork in the road ahead, the left is the territory of the Wind Wolves."
Lei Shi continued, "The right is the territory of the Ironhide Boar. Captain Tang, which way should we go next? "
Tang Shidao asked, "Your suggestion?"
Lei Shi thought for a moment and said, "The Ironhide Boar's defense is very strong, but it's not fast enough. The Wind Wolves are very fast, but their defense isn't strong. You have the Nimbleness Halo, so we can enjoy the speed bonus. Therefore, we have the same speed as the Wind Wolves, so it won't be too difficult to kill them directly. I suggest we go through the Wind Wolves' territory. "
After saying that, the four of them looked at Tang Shidao, and no one raised any objections.
Tang Shidao said calmly, "My opinion is the opposite. The Ironhide Boar's speed isn't fast to begin with, and if we use the Nimbleness Halo, one plus one is greater than two. If we're only on par with the Wind Wolves, we'll be twice as fast as the Ironhide Boar. Let's not talk about whether we can break through its defense, but at least we can guarantee that we can crush the Ironhide Boar in terms of speed. "
The green-eyed fox reacted quickly, "So even if we can't beat it, we can still easily escape?"
Tang Shidao nodded, "Yes, since it's an advantage, I want to maximize it. Using the Nimbleness Halo to make up for our speed is a disadvantage, but at least we'll be safe in the Ironhide Boar's territory. As for killing … Yes, we're mages, so we have ways to deal with magic beasts. If we really fight, everyone should work hard to improve themselves to the level where they can kill them. "
Hearing this, everyone realized that it would be very troublesome if they tangled with the Wind Wolves, but the Ironhide Boar didn't have the qualifications to race with them.
In terms of safety, passing through the Ironhide Boar's territory was the safest.
"We'll listen to you, Captain." The four of them replied.
Next.
The group of five quickly entered the Ironhide Boar's territory, rushing towards their destination.
The Magician Network received the latest news, and most of the mages nodded, "Using the Nimbleness Halo, entering the Ironhide Boar's territory … A very smart approach."
Fighting the Wind Wolves, this was to make up for their shortcomings.
Fighting the Wild Boar, this was to maximize their advantage.
The two choices couldn't be said to be right or wrong.
In theory, killing the Wind Wolves' territory would be more rewarding. Because both sides were equal in speed, and the mages themselves were stronger, it would be much easier to hunt. Entering the Ironhide Boar's territory, it was very likely that they wouldn't be able to break through its defenses and kill a few.
It could only be said that.
Walking through the Ironhide Boar's territory was safe and worry-free.
Even if a turtle had nine heads, a hundred claws, and a thousand sharp teeth, it wouldn't be able to hurt a rabbit … because its speed couldn't keep up! Tang Shidao's group was originally faster than the Ironhide Boar, and with the added effect of the Nimbleness Halo, they could completely beat them by dozens of streets. Even if weapons couldn't break through their defenses, spells couldn't kill them, and the Ironhide Boar had the advantage, it could only chase after them and eat their dust.
Those who had survived for so long on the Magician Network weren't fools, even if they weren't very smart.
They thought a little more and understood why Tang Shidao made this choice.
At this moment.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Tang Shidao in a new light.
There were many good things in the Copper Spirit Continent, but Tang Shidao had always considered 'safety' and 'speed' as his goals, which was very rare. Safety was a responsibility to his teammates, and speed was a responsibility to the Bronze Dragon. Because the Bronze Dragon didn't have much time, if a team failed, they had to wait for the next team. The more time they wasted, the less guaranteed the Bronze Dragon's lifespan.
Therefore, the faster the team moved, the more chances the Bronze Dragon would have.
At this moment.
The Magicians on the Magician Network admired in their hearts. The Bronze Dragon, who had been lying motionless, suddenly opened its eyes and looked in the direction Tang Shidao's group had left. Through the Forest of Mockery, the Bronze Dragon saw it with its own eyes. The Maze of Lies was beating itself up, and the Bronze Dragon could guess why. The earth shook time and time again, and the Bronze Dragon also thought of Gluttony.
Now, the Bronze Dragon felt that its heart was getting closer and closer to its goal.
Based on the speed of this march, it could roughly guess what choice Tang Shidao was making.
"Work hard, young man. I don't have much time. If you can send it back before I completely lose my power, I will have the ability to give you a special gift. If it's too late, I won't be able to activate it. " The Bronze Dragon whispered and slowly closed its eyes again. It didn't want to waste any of its elemental life force now.
In the sky above the Copper Spirit Continent.
A pair of special eyes was watching Tang Shidao's group.
It didn't have very strong power, but these eyes were full of wisdom, at least not driven by instinct like other magical beasts.
What did it want?
No idea.
