"You're also a magic apprentice? That's not right, you don't have any magic aura on you! " Wang Zhongyue's heart trembled when he saw through the magic she had learned. There were tens of millions of magic tricks. Unless he also practiced general magic, how terrifying was his knowledge reserve to be able to see through the magic trick at a glance?
But the youth obviously had not mastered the magic circuit, and there was no magic aura on him. How could he see through her magic trick?
"Magic aura?"
"Don't tell me you didn't even go to university?" Wang Zhongyue's expression became a little strange. "As long as a magic apprentice has learned magic, they will leave magic aura on them, and they can sense each other."
"Yeah, I just finished the unified recruitment exam. Let's not talk about this first. Isn't magic required to master the magic circuit to learn? Uh, your strength … "Li Xiang's perception of danger was extremely strong, and ever since he understood magic and the player system, he saw this type of enemy as a great enemy. But this Miss Captain almost killed him in midair, and when she was caught by him, her physical strength was obviously not as good as his. If she was a Level 1 magic apprentice who knew magic, he would have died several times over.
"Ah, you're still a rookie! Damn it, I was actually defeated by a rookie … "Wang Zhongyue rolled her eyes and was speechless, but she still kindly explained some things to him.
That was the general knowledge of the magic world that one would slowly come into contact with in university. First of all, there were many types of magic. Only those magic tricks that required the mastery of magic circuits to be learned had such limitations, and the general magic she learned was not in this category.
Secondly, magic apprentices and magicians had a huge difference in strength because of the three basic skills, magic circuits, and the magic they learned.
The strong could even exchange blows with newly promoted players, and the weak might not even be as good as killers like Li Xiang who leaned towards combat.
As for learning magic, it was an extremely difficult thing. There were many ways to learn it that made one's hair stand on end. Therefore, it was extremely rare to see someone like Sword Ten in a city.
After all, becoming a true magic apprentice was the first step to breaking away from the circle of ordinary people. They would have their own circle, and would rarely appear in civilian cities.
"There's even a distinction between civilians and cities … This world is far bigger than I imagined," Li Xiang muttered to himself.
Hearing his words, Wang Zhongyue couldn't help but roll her eyes a few more times, "Of course, the seven continents have their own rules, and the stratification of each region is extremely serious. Before you enter a university, the world you see is completely different from the world you see after you enter, including after you leave. I heard that it's even more different after you become a player! That's what I yearn for. "
"It turns out that even if you enter university, there's a high possibility that you won't be able to connect your awakened magic circuits. Ah, Miss Captain, I'm sorry, I'm not targeting you. " Li Xiang sat in the front passenger seat, deep in thought. From the driver's seat, he could see the dark night sky and the continuous mountain peaks below.
Leaving the city where humans gathered, many of the other places were still wilderness and mountainous areas. Currently, only the major powers had the technology to build and so on. If they didn't develop these areas, they would always be in a state of desolation. Looking at it this way, the Polar night was very likely to be located somewhere in the wilderness.
Wang Zhongyue coughed a few times and said awkwardly, "Well, connecting magic circuits is still very difficult. If you can't connect them, there are still some general types of magic that you can learn. Unfortunately, the magic scroll resources have been monopolized. If you don't go to university, it's basically very difficult to come into contact with magic, let alone the powerful ones. "
"I see, Miss Captain, what's this thing for?" Li Xiang nodded and pointed to an instrument on the control panel. He could see through the entire control panel. This instrument could provide a little bit of liquefied Origin Substance, which made him a little interested.
"Don't fiddle around! That's the internal tube that holds the power core crystal! The power core crystal is a crystal body made of precious liquefied Origin Substance. It can power the airship for a long time. Sigh, if the technology to extract Origin Substance wasn't monopolized by the Wessex Technology Company, our military airships wouldn't be in such a tight spot. Without this small crystal, the entire airship would be a pile of scrap metal. "
Wang Zhongyue began to talk non-stop when she mentioned the things she was good at. Li Xiang just happened to be a little interested in this area, so he listened to her introduction.
She was an expert at operating airships, and she had a deep understanding of many of them. Wang Zhongyue spoke whatever came to her mind, and most people would have been dizzy from listening to her. When she came back to her senses, she realized that Li Xiang might not be able to keep up with her pace. Just as she was about to give a simple explanation full of apologies, she was shocked to find that this youth's ability to understand and learn far exceeded her imagination.
Especially in the field of machinery, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a genius.
Anything she said, he could remember it once and draw inferences about other things. In the National Military University of China, he was a living example of a top student. Just by speaking casually, Li Xiang actually understood most of the airships.
"That is to say, as long as I have a way to destroy the power core during battle, I can successfully deal a fatal blow to an airship!" Li Xiang revealed a trace of a smile. In the eyes of others, he might be thought to be incomparably arrogant, but he could see through the interior of many mechanical devices. Even if the position of each airship's power core was different, he could still pinpoint it accurately.
"Tsk, well said, but it's useless. Not to mention the protective measures of the power core, you don't have the blueprints, so you won't know where the designer has hidden it. You should also understand the importance of blueprints. Every airship is different! "
Wang Zhongyue laughed and was just about to mock him when a dark red light suddenly lit up on the control panel. She sat up abruptly and pulled the control lever up with both hands!
The enormous force caused the airship to tremble, and the enormous kinetic force caused it to deviate from its fixed trajectory and rise up dozens of meters!
The unexpected centripetal force caused Li Xiang to have no choice but to stick tightly to his seat. His eyes, however, were fixed on the glass, watching a ray of light slide past like a shooting star.
"What is that …" He straightened up with great difficulty, and Wang Zhongyue beside him was already drenched in cold sweat.
"Floating projectiles! They're actually firing floating projectiles at us! " Wang Zhongyue's expression changed drastically. She pulled the control lever fiercely with both hands, and the entire airship immediately rotated 360 degrees and fell downward at lightning speed. At the same time, the other two floating projectiles brushed past them and collided with the first one.
Boom!!!
A loud explosion rang out outside the window, and the entire night sky seemed to have brightened up a bit. A small mushroom cloud rose up behind them, and the terrifying airflow blew toward the airship, causing them to sway left and right. They almost crashed into a mountain peak.
Li Xiang had never encountered such a situation before. His head knocked against the ground after several attempts without fastening his seatbelt, and his whole body squeezed under the control panel.
The airship was shaking violently as though it had been struck by something.
Fortunately, Wang Zhongyue's piloting skills were up to standard, and it wasn't just for show. They managed to evade the floating projectile at the most critical moment and pulled the airship back to its fixed trajectory.
"Dammit, are they crazy?! They clearly know I'm on the airship, yet they still used floating projectiles! Do they want me to die with them? " Wang Zhongyue cursed loudly as she operated the airship. "One floating projectile costs close to three million Blue Star Coins. Normally, funding is like squeezing toothpaste, and now they're casually using floating projectiles? These damned bastards! "
Li Xiang climbed back to his seat, and just as he sat down, he saw another frightening scene. The airflow just now had caused the airship to deviate and become difficult to control. At this time, the entire airship was close to the ground and flying close to the ground. On the wasteland, there were occasional mountain peaks and dense forests on both sides. Behind them, there was a speeding steam locomotive shooting a strong beam of light. A few pillars of air flashed past, and it was the steam fired by the steam weapons they were equipped with, which almost hit the airship.
"Dammit, there's actually an interference device." Wang Zhongyue's palms were sweating. This was also the first time she was piloting an airship with an interference device, and the slightest carelessness would have caused her to be blasted to death.
Li Xiang got up and saw many steam locomotives speeding through the wasteland from the side. They looked like motorcycles, but they looked more advanced and technologically advanced. Every one of them had two military soldiers, one in charge of driving, and the other in charge of shooting.
They were extremely fast, and very soon, they were flanking them from both sides.
The red light on the control panel kept flashing, indicating that there was insufficient power. The power core crystal was somewhat dim, and it was probably being interfered with by something.
If this continued, it was only a matter of time before they caught up.
This group of soldiers was completely different from the ones Li Xiang saw during the day. They moved in an orderly manner, and their attacks were biting cold. They specifically targeted the airship's weak points and attacked. After a few shots, he heard a loud "whoosh" sound. A hole might have been pierced through the airbag.
Wind poured into the airbag, and the direction became even more difficult to control. There was also a great deal of resistance.
Wang Zhongyue was no longer in the mood to talk. She was fully focused on piloting the airship. This was not only Li Xiang's life, but also her own. The military had mobilized a special unit, and they did not intend to leave anyone alive!
"These soldiers seem to be a little different." Li Xiang frowned and whispered. After exchanging blows with the people from the military, he discovered that the average soldier's strength was very ordinary. Even a lieutenant like Wang Zhongyue was not very strong. They couldn't be compared to Lélie and Bai Shanshan who were in charge of martial law during the unified recruitment exam.
Lélie was a fierce person who could single-handedly fight with a magic apprentice.
But he was only a sergeant major, and in terms of military rank, he was still below Wang Zhongyue.
"Of course they're different! This is the Black City's Black Scale Unit! A special unit! Their combat power is ten times that of ordinary soldiers. "Wang Zhongyue shouted a few words." Which big boss from the north did you provoke? Why did even the Black Scale Unit move out? "
"Big boss from the north?" Li Xiang was stunned, and immediately felt relieved. Sure enough, it was like this.
"I know, it seems that this matter can't be avoided. If it drags on, you will all be killed." Li Xiang immediately made a decision after confirming that it was related to the Kuang Tie.
He got up and suddenly reached out to touch the power core crystal.
Li Xiang's action startled Wang Zhongyue.
"What are you doing?!"
