Chapter 138 Times have changed, Father!
Open space in the manor.
The five Petes and Baron Chinal were 50 meters away from each other, which is also the standard distance for etiquette duels.
Bacon Chinal, who was watching the duel with the servants, looked expectant and excited.
When he was young, he knew that his brother was very good at making trouble, and he would do something that would make his father very angry.
Since Pete went to Green Harbor to "study abroad" three years ago, the manor has been quiet for a long time, and his life is quite boring.
Every day, in addition to learning noble etiquette and physical exercise, he prays to the God of the Wilderness Lei Sai, unlike before when he could see the chaotic scene.
As soon as his brother came back, the situation was really different. He directly made a bigger thing than before.
Father and son duel! Father and son are kind!
"Both sides salute-back to back!" Bacon took the initiative to act as a temporary referee, shouting with a slightly hoarse voice during the voice change period.
Baron Chinal bowed slightly and turned around.
He had planned it all.
The attack magic of the 3rd level mage is very powerful, so he can't just take it head-on.
But the prerequisite for successful spellcasting is to get the response of the goddess of magic, concentrate on communicating with the magic network, and chant it out!
The biggest advantage of the ranger profession is the ability to attack quickly and accurately from a distance.
As long as he takes the initiative at the beginning of the battle and hits an arrow, he can make his spoiled son so painful that he can't concentrate.
If he can't even chant a spell, there is not much difference between a mage and an ordinary person!
As for the other guys, let alone, they don't pose any threat at first glance, and they can be knocked down one by one with an arrow.
"——The duel begins!"
Baron Qinar turned quickly and completed the action of drawing the bow and arrow at the same time.
The arrow made a "whoosh" sound of breaking through the wind and flew towards Pete, who was still standing there, as if he was scared.
"The winner is decided!"
The arrow wrapped in coarse cloth hit "Pete"'s chest, and the expected scream of pain did not come.
On the contrary, Pete's figure quickly became blurred and disappeared like the surface of the water being stirred.
"Mirror Image!"
Mirror Image, a level 1 magic, leaves an illusory avatar that can last for several hours at a designated location to attract the enemy's attention. The avatar has no mobility or attack capabilities and will dissipate once attacked.
The avatar was shattered, but Pete himself disappeared.
"Invisibility?!"
Self-invisibility, a level 2 magic, hides one's body by distorting light for a period of time!
Baron Qinar was shocked and instinctively condensed the concentrated energy blessed by the God of the Wilderness into the arrow, and bright red energy emanated from it.
He was going to use the [Lighting Arrow] of the Level 2 Ranger to illuminate the battlefield and create a regional effect that could detect all kinds of stealth!
Before the lighting arrow was launched, a familiar chanting sounded out of thin air:
"Arcane Barrage!"
As Pete reappeared in the field, a continuous barrage of arcane energy gathered and whistled towards the vicinity of Baron Qinar's position.
Of course, Pete didn't really attack either. All the [Arcane Barrage] avoided his father under his intentional control, and targeted the open space around the opponent.
Baron Qinar reacted very quickly, exerted force on his feet, and jumped back like a dragonfly touching the water.
Ranger 1st level combat skill, jump back! Remove the movement restriction status such as restraint and immobilization and jump a distance backward, and make most attacks targeting the ranger lose the lock.
He found the problem!
His son came prepared and tried to trick and sneak attack him, an old man who was almost 50 years old!
Taking advantage of the preparation stage of the etiquette duel, he released the two magics of [Mirror Image] and [Self-Invisibility], not only tricking him to shoot the fake body, but also creating a first-hand opportunity for himself to chant safely!
This doesn't look like a novice wizard from the academy!
Baron Qinar was about to organize a counterattack, but his figure was stopped by a small resistance and paused for a moment.
Brandon rushed over with a big sword in his hand!
Warrior level 1 skill, Charge! Shock the opponent with momentum, with a certain probability of immobilization.
Although there is a gap in strength between the two sides, the immobilization can only block for a moment, but it does make Baron Qinar's movements incoherent.
At the same time, Gale's chanting sounded the same as Pete's:
"Arcane Barrage!"
The second [Arcane Barrage] magic came crashing down.
Baron Qinar's face turned pale with fear.
The situation was beyond his expectations!
He could accept that there were professional warriors among the friends who came with Pete, but there was another level 3 mage? !
This is not over yet.
There was a faint chill in the neck, and the back of the dagger with a cold glow was pressed against it. Lena's delicate figure dissipated with a gray-black shadow energy mist, and appeared out of thin air behind Baron Qinar.
Stalker level 1 skill, Throat Lock!
In order to prevent Baron Qinar from overreacting and getting hurt by mistake, Miranda took out the canon from her bosom and flipped it:
"Brilliant Radiance, Tough Shield, Attach!"
She also deliberately cast a layer of [Divine Word: Shield] on the other party to block the damage first.
...
Magic bombardment, warriors close to each other, stealth attacks, and even a priest who believes in the God of Radiance ready to provide assistance at any time.
"Times have changed, father!" Pete did not continue to cast the spell, "Do you want to continue?"
Baron Qinar had no choice but to put down his weapon and raised his hand to admit defeat.
The battle situation was in line with his prediction to some extent:
It was indeed "the battle could be resolved in a few rounds".
The problem was that he was the one who was resolved!
He had no time to use his rich combat experience, and was "killed" by the tacit cooperation of Pete and others.
Moreover, whether it was the speed or accuracy of casting spells, Pete did not look like a novice wizard who had just completed the rating, but seemed to have experienced many real battles.
"Well... well... okay..."
Baron Qinar felt his face was hot. He had said before that he would educate his son well, but he didn't expect to be taught a lesson.
"Son, you and your friends are really strong."
To be precise, according to Baron Qinar's estimation, if there were two experienced 3rd-level wizards and a glow priest whose rank was unknown, they could establish a famous mercenary group in Ceylon Territory.
When Pete said he wanted to become a pioneer noble, Baron Qinar was so angry that he almost went berserk.
Because he felt that his son was overestimating his ability.
Crossing the kingdom border rashly was no different from committing suicide.
But judging from the current situation.
Although Baron Qinar still did not believe that Pete could complete the feat of pioneering in the Dark Forest, they now did have the ability to go to the Dark Forest to destroy monsters.
