Chapter 319 Evil Corpse & Knight
Special Class,
Lion Heart raised his head and looked at everyone. His gaze swept past the inner house wizards. Feeling the pressure from his gaze the wizards stepped back a little in fear.
Paul was scared sh!t. He was hoping to get some answer but not at the cost of offending big wizards like the mentor.
Seeing the reaction of the mentor, the few outer house wizards also quieted down. Mentor Lion is a bloodline wizard.
Everyone with a little bit of knowledge is aware that sometimes the moods of bloodline wizards were influenced by their bloodline.
Especially the bloodline power of Mad Forest Lion is known for being savage and bloodthirsty. So the inner wizards don't want to get on his bad side.
Lion Heart observes the reaction of everyone. Feeling the quiet atmosphere, his eyebrows ease down. Even himself not sure about the changes.
Initially, he thought it was a fluke. But looking at Vincent's steady and continuous round clearance. He doesn't know how to explain it clearly. The only thing he can think of is Vincent's gravity magic.
The power of gravity is stronger than he thought. It can even rival the wizards across ranks. A quick glint flashed in Lion Heart's eyes.
He said, "You guys, there is nothing wrong with the simulation. Vincent Carey is a Sub-Taboo wizard."
"His gravity magic is a powerful control type magic. So there is no surprise that he can maintain this pace, "He added further.
Gasp
After getting confirmation from him the outer house wizard sucked a cold breath of air. No way! Even though some people guessed it. But still, the mentor's words shocked them even more.
Lara White is ranked behind Vincent. Well! Doesn't it mean Vincent is stronger than Lara? If that's true then he can get the number 1 position in the inner house ranking at any point in time.
Which further shook them to the core. This thought not only arises in outer house wizards' minds. But also inner house wizards' hearts. It took some time for them to realize the truth.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
Apart from a few level-4 wizards from the inner house.
After two hours, all the level-3 inner house wizards exited the pod chamber except Lara White and Vincent Carey.
The commotion didn't end there. People still gossip among themselves. The performance of Vincent and Lara is making everyone stunned.
Now, everyone can't wait to see the reactions of the level-4 wizard once they exit the pod chamber.
...
(From MC's perspective)
Inside the simulation,
[Round 40: Cleared.]
[Next round starts in 15 seconds.]
"Phew," I exhaled in relief. Now the monsters are getting more powerful. Hereafter there will be more Peak rank 3rd order monsters.
Before coming here the mentor didn't tell us how many rounds are there in the simulation battle.
After a couple of seconds, the environment changed again. I appeared in the middle of the dark valley.
Swish!
The next moment, I heard the sounds of movements. A massive blood centipede came into view. "Okay," I muttered to myself.
Like those snakes, the centipede monsters also belong to the ancient species. And it is stronger compared to other average monsters in the wilderness.
Seeing the massive body coming toward me.
I raised my hand to cast the spell.
"Gravity Push," I uttered
A wisp of magic released from my palm and shot at the centipede monster. In a blink of an eye, the shot reached the monster's body.
Compared to the initial rounds the monsters in successive rounds get stronger. So without probing the centipede, I know this one is a Peak 3rd monster.
The vile mana released from its body is slightly stronger compared to the previous monster.
When gravity force comes in contact with the monster's body. The centipede turned stiff as time stopped.
But after a couple of seconds, the gravity force penetrated its bones and thereby destroyed the centipede's organs completely.
Pfff
The aftermath of the attack caused the monster to fly back like a broken kite. With that, the monster lost its final breath.
[Round 41: Cleared.]
[Next round starts in 15 seconds.]
"Hmmm," I relaxed my eyebrows. But I don't know the upper limit of these rounds.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
I cleared successive rounds and eventually reached round 49.
"I hope it's the last one," Right after I muttered, the environment changed again.
This time I appeared in the middle of a graveyard.
"What is this?" I exclaimed in surprise. I see piled-up bones all over this place.
This place gives me an eerie vibe. What kind of monster will appear in this place? A vague curiosity rose in my heart.
Swish!
I see a movement in the ground.
"Hmmm," The next second my gaze fell on a certain spot. A hand rose from the ground. Seeing that a quick glint flashed in my eyes.
A few seconds later,
An entire skeleton rose from the ground. I instantly recognized the identity of the corpse. The evil corpse is usually controlled by evil wizards.
But right now I see a dark light in his eye sockets. Which means the evil corpse has consciousness.
My expression becomes a little dignified.
"System, probe the target's details," I said to the system.
[Ding! The Host's voice is recognized]
[Ding! The command is initiated %]

[Level: Level-4]
[Strength: 318]
[Vitality: 321]
[Speed: 316]
[Stamina: 314]
[Spells: Blood curse, Blood Poison]
A row of information appeared before my eyes.
"Level 4," I mumbled under my breath. I wasn't surprised by the name. But the spell of the evil corpse should not be underestimated.
When I was lost in thoughts. The evil corpse shot at me. I realize it's an evil spell. I quickly moved sideways to evade.
I get some ominous feel from the evil corpse. It's not good to delay it anymore.
"Gravity Blast," I uttered.
A wisp of gravity power shot at the evil corpse. In a blink of an eye, the gravity power reached the evil corpse.
When the gravity power fell on the corpse. Several cracks appeared on the white skeleton. In a blink of an eye, the skeleton was torn into several pieces.
[Round 50: Cleared.]
[Next round starts in 15 seconds.]
After a few seconds, the environment didn't change but a powerful skeleton soldier appeared.
"System, probe the target's details," I said to the system.
[Ding! The Host's voice is recognized]

[Skill: Evil Sword Slash]
A row of information appeared before me. Again, a surprising glint flashed in my eyes. The previous one was the corpse of an evil wizard. And now it's a knight.
I have seen this only in history books. Seeing the appearance of the phantom, which almost looked real. I couldn't help but be interested in it.
Compared to the battle tower, the simulation battle is an eye-opener.
The corpse knight has a giant sword in his hands. But there is nothing called spells. The knight has only one skill. Apart from it, the power attributes were high above the evil corpse.
My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Compared to wizards it's easy to kill the knight. I raised my hand to cast the spell again.
"Gravity Blast," I uttered.
A wisp of gravity magic shot at the corpse knight. When the attack comes in contact with the corpse. The corpse was destroyed into pieces.
...
Outside,
A few minutes ago,
A level-4 wizard from the weapon hall walked out of the pod. He directly ranked 7th in this simulation battle. There were 6 wizards ahead of him including Vincent and Lara.
Like everyone else, the level-4 wizard is shocked after knowing the information. But compared to others his mentality is far better. So he quickly adjusted his state.
As time goes on, the remaining level-4 wizards start to exit the pod. But none of them were able to reach the 50th round.
After one hour, the 5 level-4 wizards were staring at the display screen like everyone else. One or two level-4 wizards are dissatisfied with the simulation battle.
But none of them stupidly questioned mentor Lion. They already learned that there was nothing wrong with the simulation. Yet the reality is too hard to digest.
"Damn it," Paul clenched his fist in anger. He felt a sense of weakness in his heart. looking at the display screen, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
Fighting across ranks? Even Level-4 wizards weren't able to clear the rounds. But these two are still staying in simulation.
Paul regretted his actions earlier. "The dale family dares to pit me," He coldly said in his heart.
To be honest, he underestimated the gravity wizard. If not for the Dale family's expensive gift. He wouldn't have agreed to mess with Vincent Carey.
Now his mind is in a state of mess. He lost the courage to offend Vincent Carey. Vincent Carey is ranked No.1 in the outer House. And now he sees that it is the same with the inner house.
"This can't go on. I have to tell the family," Paul said in his heart.
