Chapter 239: The triple barrier in the remote manor!
Chapter 239: The triple barrier in the remote manor!
Seeing everyone's slightly surprised looks at him, Andy quickly explained with a smile.
"If I hadn't concealed my strength, given my age and strength, I would have been forced to enroll in the Imperial Academy."
"What's wrong? Isn't it good to go to the Imperial College?"
Liu Chi was a little puzzled. According to the rules of the Imperial Academy, some capable special recruits, once enrolled, would be treated much better than ordinary adventurers, and could even receive subsidies while studying.
"I want to, but my family situation is a bit special. I'm afraid I'll be influenced by snobbery if I enter the Imperial Academy, so becoming an adventurer seems to be my best choice."
"Why do you say it seems?"
Liuchi questioned,
"In fact, apart from these two options, I originally had another choice, but now I can't go back."
As he spoke, Andy's happiness gradually dimmed, as if he recalled some bad memories.
Seeing Andy's expression change slightly, Liu Chi did not continue to ask, but changed the subject.
"Let me count them. Catherine is at the early stage of a high-level magician? Anna is at the early stage of an intermediate magician? And Andy is at the peak of a high-level magician, right?"
The three people who were asked nodded.
"Well, I will customize the barrier magic for you according to your abilities."
The three of them expressed their attitudes to Liu Chi.
Liu Chi immediately took out paper and pen, and began to customize barrier magic for the three people from simple to complex.
Seeing Liu Chi drawing a magic circle on paper with a pen, Andy, who had never seen such a scene before, leaned over and observed carefully.
As a senior magician, Andy's understanding of magic is considered genius among his peers.
Andy was very curious about the magic circle drawn by Liu Chi, but since Liu Chi was busy, he had no intention of disturbing Liu Chi. He knew that one must be cautious with everything related to magic. If one was not careful, the magic would fail at best, or even backfire.
After wasting two drafts, Liu Chi finally designed a barrier magic suitable for Anna. For an intermediate magician, it is still too difficult to create a large barrier, which in turn increased the difficulty for Liu Chi.
After making the wood barrier for Anna, Liu Chi quickly completed the remaining lightning barrier and fire barrier. After handing the drawn magic circle to the three people in turn, he saw that it was getting late.
"Let's go downstairs and eat first."
Led by Liu Chi, the group went downstairs.
At this time, the restaurant has long lost its original appearance after being transformed by Jarvis, and has been replaced by modern technology.
Seeing the restaurant in front of him, Liu Chi was also slightly surprised. Although he had learned some modern technology from Zhu Xiu's memory, the things in front of him still made him shine.
Not only Liu Chi, but everyone else was shocked by these things they had never seen before.
"Pick the seat you like. You will sit in the same seats as today. This is Jarvis, the butler of the manor. You can come to him if you have any questions. He is responsible for everything in the manor."
After introducing Jarvis, Liu Chi sat directly on the short side of the rectangular dining table.
"Hello everyone, please take care of me in our future work together!"
Jarvis greeted everyone with a smile. The old man's appearance made him feel particularly friendly.
After asking everyone to sit down, under the control of Jarvis, servant robots of different appearances, each holding a tray, walked out of the kitchen door.
After the robot walked around the restaurant, a plate with a lid was placed in front of each person.
"Please enjoy!"
Jarvis extended his hand and made a please gesture, then left the restaurant with a smile and a group of robots.
“They don’t eat?”
Catherine, who was sitting next to Liu Chi, saw the door of the restaurant closed by Jarvis and asked curiously.
"They are robots and don't need to eat like us."
"Robots? They are robots!"
Although she had seen many robots in the library in the spiritual sea, this was the first time she had seen one with her own eyes, Catherine exclaimed.
"Okay, let's eat, and then we'll take a look at your barrier."
Liu Chi opened the lid of his plate, revealing a cooked steak.
At the same time, everyone opened their plates. Those who were used to eating Chinese food and barbecue, after seeing the whole steak and knife and fork again, they forgot how to start for a moment.
As if noticing the embarrassment of the others, Liu Chi immediately took out a pair of chopsticks.
"Come here! These are chopsticks!"
After dinner, Liu Chi brought the three people to the courtyard. Several people who had no other arrangements also followed them to the courtyard. They also wanted to see the barrier created by the three people.
"Who of you wants to try first?"
Liu Chi looked at the three people and couldn't stop smiling.
"Of course it's this princess!"
Catherine walked out with Liu Chi's magic circle and directly poured her own thunder magic element into the magic circle.
As the thunder element continued to flow in, the magic circle broke away from Catherine's hand and floated up.
After a period of time, as the content of magic elements became larger and larger, the magic circle broke away from the paper directly and began to draw itself in the air. As the magic circle took shape, it began to rotate slowly under the drive of the magic elements.
Looking at her masterpiece, Catherine's mouth almost cracked to her ears.
“Hahahaha~just watch this!”
As soon as Catherine finished speaking, the magic circle stopped rotating instantly, and at the same time a golden flash shot upwards from the center of the magic circle.
A semicircular pale yellow barrier suddenly appeared outside the manor and in the air, and it became invisible a few seconds after it was formed.
After the barrier disappeared, everyone was confused.
"This is not the conventional barrier you are familiar with."
Liuchi explained,
As the caster, Catherine soon felt the difference in the barrier, that is, the information of things in the barrier area actually appeared in her brain. After Liu Chi finished explaining, she added,
"Yes, it's not the conventional barrier found in the Colosseum or the Imperial Academy. You will know once you try it."
"Let me do it!"
After hearing this, Andy, who originally wanted to be the last to perform, went on stage early.
Andy followed Catherine's example and injected his own fire magic element into the magic circle.
Finally, the magic circle broke away from the paper and floated in front of Andy. As magic elements continued to pour in, the magic circle stopped rotating after absorbing enough magic elements to activate it.
Outside the manor and in the air, an orange-red barrier appeared at the location of the original light yellow barrier. Similarly, the barrier disappeared after a few seconds.
Andy, the caster, felt the difference between this barrier and ordinary barriers after a few seconds. In Andy's understanding, this should not be considered barrier magic, but the legendary domain magic.
