Chapter 316 Reckless Race (Happy New Year)
The basic consumption of the flying spell is not high, depending on the flight speed, 1 to 10 points per second, but this only refers to the consumption of ordinary flight mode and flying in a straight line without any obstacles.
Competitive flying requires a professional racing broom. After the racing broom turns on the high-speed mode, the maximum flight speed will be doubled, and the mana consumption will also be doubled. In addition, in the high-speed state, every time you pass an obstacle, the sudden stop, turning, etc. For difficult moves, the mana consumption will evaporate massively. Every time you pass an obstacle, you will need to consume hundreds of mana points!
Therefore, in competitive flying, mana reserve is a very important consideration for a player.
This is why the flying competition restricts players from using recovery items and magic. If they can replenish their magic midway, everyone will have unlimited magic power, and they can accelerate infinitely during the game, which will lose the meaning of competition.
It's just that this rule only restricts Mu You's game characters, but not his body on Earth.
The game characters are not good at all, but they have only one advantage, that is, they can be used as a separate body from the main body, and at the same time they are related to each other. When the game characters compete, Mu You can completely recover his magic power by drinking drugs in reality.
Mu You directly found out all the magic potions stored in the ring. These were all the trophies he got from killing Rhodes and the man in white before, covering various categories and sizes. So many bottles.
In addition, Mu You also specially changed the equipment, from hats, shoulder pads, accessories, to belts, leg armor, and boots, all replaced with the best mana recovery equipment in the family.
Now his mana recovery speed is as high as 31 points per second!
If these are not enough, he still has the Fool's Space to use. Counting the opportunity to refresh the badge, the Fool's Space can be opened for 20 seconds a day, which is two hours!
Two hours, even counting his passive recovery speed of 31 points, is enough to restore him 220,000 points of mana. With so much mana, if he still can't defeat this club leader, then he is amazing!
Everything is ready, Mu You summoned the avatar, and asked the avatar to help him look at the phone, and he prepared the Fool's card himself.
The game cannot be opened in the Fool's Barrier due to the change of time flow (see Chapter 66 for details), so here we have to let the avatar help to watch the phone, and he opens the Fool's Barrier in the distance, and meditates by the way.
【You, led by Charles and others, came to the 'Flight Practice Hall' of the flight agency. 】
[This is a vast space opened up with the space extension spell. There is a standard competitive flying arena inside. The circular track below is covered with a large number of strange-shaped obstacles. Circles, ice walls, sawtooth, etc., in different forms and varieties. 】
【The other 30 or so members stayed in the auditorium on the sidelines, while you, led by Charles, rode a broom into the arena. 】
【"This is a tracking ball, its maximum speed in a straight line is 180 kilometers per hour. After the game starts, it will automatically chase and kill the contestants. Those who are hit by it will immediately lose their qualifications for the competition. Therefore, during the competition, the players' flying The speed must exceed it, once the magic power and physical strength are exhausted and stall, what awaits you is elimination." Charles held a ball with a mouth and teeth in his hand, and introduced a basic rule of the game to you. 】
【You nodded to show your understanding, and turned the **** of the broom under you. 】
【Your flying broom has been adjusted to racing mode, with a maximum speed of 270 kilometers per hour. Note that the difficulty of turning and avoiding danger increases greatly at this speed. Please conduct a test flight under professional guidance. 】
【You and Charles float side by side in front of the take-off line, and signal to the referee seat that you are ready. 】
【"Start!" With the flag waving, you and Charles rushed out side by side! 】
【After a few seconds of head-to-head, your broom performance disadvantages were revealed, and you were thrown away by Charles. 】
【Charles turns around and casts the 'Slowdown Curse' on you. You feel as if you are stuck in a quagmire, your speed drops suddenly, and the gap between you and Charles instantly widens. 】
【You have come to the first obstacle. With a beautiful posture and gorgeous skills, Charles passed the Stonehenge obstacle unscathed, with +1 points. 】
【You tried to imitate Charles's movements, but it's a pity that you can't draw a tiger like a dog. You bumped your head against the stone pillar, and your head was **** and your eyes stared. 】
【The rear tracking ball is already approaching in the blink of an eye. Seeing you who have slowed down greatly, it seems to have found a prey and is rushing towards you at extreme speed. 】
【You hastily adjusted the angle of the broom, reaccelerated to avoid the pursuit, and at the same time avoided the obstacles that came in front of you. You were extremely embarrassed for a while...】
…
The plot at the beginning was similar to what Mu You imagined. After the game started, there was no option to pop up in the game, and the game AI took over the whole process, so he could only be a spectator.
The result is that the opponent showed off all the way, while he went on a rampage all the way, and none of the obstacles he encountered at the beginning could pass without injury.
Professional players are playing the game of racing laps, but he is playing Temple Run, and he dare not think about lap times. Basically, he is fighting wits and courage with the monster ball chasing behind him throughout the whole process.
The 2,400-meter-long track sounds very long, but under the high-speed flight of the broom, it is a matter of minutes.
Soon, Charles finished the first lap.
【Charles crossed the take-off line first and completed the first lap of flight. Flight mileage score: 1 point. Lap time 40.15 seconds, lap score: 9 points, 21 obstacles passed perfectly, obstacle score: 21 points, current total score: 31 points! 】
【Ten seconds later, you dodged the attack of the tracking ball and crossed the take-off line, narrowly completing the first lap of flight, and the flight mileage score: 1 point. Lap time 62.44 seconds, lap time score: 0 points, pass 0 obstacles, score: 0 points, current total score: 1 point! 】
"..."
Mu You was speechless. Although he knew the gap was huge, he didn't expect it to be so big. After one lap, his score was more than 30 times ahead. Except for one point for finishing the distance, he was all zero...
【Entering the second lap, Charles continued to maintain the lead and widened the gap further and further...】
【Soon, Charles passed the take-off line again and completed the second lap of flight, with 1 point of flight mileage. Lap time is 39.95 seconds, lap time score: 10 points, 18 obstacles are perfectly passed, and obstacles are slightly bumped 3 times, score: 19.5 points, current total score: 61.5 points! 】
…
【Charles caught up with you on the track! 】
【You were trapped by the opponent, but you have no way to fight back. The gap between your skills and broom performance almost doomed the outcome of your match from the very beginning. 】
【Charles did not cast restriction magic on you again, but showed a disappointed expression, and silently threw you away. 】
【Charles passed the take-off line for the third time and completed the third lap of flight...Current total score: 88.5 points! 】
【After flying three laps, Charles, who still had enough strength, did not choose to continue flying, but stopped on the side of the road and chose to quit the race. 】
【Because the current gap between the two sides is enough to kill the game, Charles has completely lost interest in continuing the game and is waiting for you on the sidelines. 】
【You have completed the third lap of flight...Current total score: 3 points! 】
【However, after flying three laps, you ignored Charles' beckoning and continued to drive towards the track...】
【You heard the exclamation of the audience from the sidelines. 】
["What does he want to do?" "85 points behind, he's already lost..." "Does he want to beat Charles by flying miles?" "How is it possible, with his current scoring efficiency, he needs to maintain high speed and fly again." 86 laps to win..." "This is simply not something humans can do..."]
"86 laps..."
Mu You was drinking the potion while watching the prompts on the screen.
Therefore, the only points he can get stably are flight points, one point for each lap. To surpass Charles’s current score, he needs to continue flying 86 laps...
"No problem, can do..."
Mu You quickly calculated the stock of the magic potion at hand and the remaining time of the Fool's Barrier, and quickly confirmed this.
At his current speed, the mana consumption for each lap is about 3500 points. Even if the recovery from drug addiction is not counted, he only needs to activate the Fool's Barrier for 0.15 seconds on average for each lap. Passive recovery alone can make Mana supply and demand are in balance.
The Fool's enchantment often lasts for 20 seconds, and it is enough to last for 86 laps, not to mention the supplement of potions, the actual process will only be easier.
After confirming this point, Mu You felt relieved and hung up to fly with peace of mind, while he meditated to recover his magic power. Once the magic power was empty, he opened the Fool's Barrier, and then lifted it after the recovery was complete.
Just like that, after persisting for an hour and a half, a new hint finally appeared in the game.
【You completed the 89th lap flight...Current total score: 89 points! 】
【You defeated Charles and won this flying competition! 】
【At this time, many club members on the sidelines were already numb from the shock. The high-speed flight of 89 laps, with a total mileage of 213 kilometers, not only broke the school record by far, but also created the mileage record of the Imperial Capital Air Competition! 】
【A lot of people are still looking forward to whether you will continue to fly to break the record, but unfortunately you didn't. The moment you won, you immediately stopped flying and exited the venue. 】
[Charles took the lead in applauding, and the other members applauded. Congratulations on completing an incredible victory. Although your victory process was quite embarrassing and you failed to pass a single obstacle, this does not prevent them from seeing your shining points. You are a genius at endurance flying! 】
【Charles holds your hand, and sincerely invites you to join the flight club, and hopes that you can represent the club and participate in the next Imperial Capital Flying Endurance Competition. With you here, Red Rose Academy will definitely beat other academies to win the championship! your choice…】
【You resolutely rejected Charles' invitation! 】
Just kidding, his victory achieved by taking drugs and cheating, it’s okay to show off in this informal small circle, but if he really wants to show up in a regular arena, he will be seen through by the Wizards Association in minutes.
【Your rejection made Charles extremely regretful, but he still fulfilled his promise and wrote a letter of recommendation for you immediately. 】
【You have obtained the ‘upgrade recommendation letter from the flight agency’. 】
【In the eyes of everyone, you bid farewell to everyone and left the flight agency...】
Time is precious, as soon as the things are in hand, Mu You leaves immediately.
Out the door, turned around and entered the divination agency next door.
【You have come to the 'Divination Club'. 】
【As the most popular club in the academy, the Divination Club has more than 300 members, and the requirements to join are not as casual as ordinary small clubs. 】
【To join the divination club, you must first take the qualification test. Only after you have determined that you have the talent for divination can you become a full member. 】
【You have come to the talent testing site in front of the divination agency, and there is a spiral astrolabe full of numbers and characters on the table. This is a professional divination talent test tool, which can eliminate randomness in many aspects, and test a person's divination qualification level more accurately...]
For the Divination Club, one has to test one's talent before entering the door.
But Mu You is worthy in this regard, his qualifications were personally certified by Vivienne, so he must be qualified.
【Under the guidance of a member, you put your finger on the astrolabe and dialed a row of characters on it. 】
【The numbers and characters of the astrolabe changed rapidly, and did not stop until a minute later. 】
【However, the final number displayed on the astrolabe caused a burst of exclamation at the scene! 】
【Many club members gathered around, and after seeing the astrolabe, they all looked at you with surprise and envy. 】
【The president of the Divination Club and several vice presidents also rushed over after hearing the news. After seeing the numbers on the astrolabe, the president Lott personally stepped forward to shake hands with you, and warmly welcome you to join! 】
"Um?"
Mu You was taken aback.
He thought that his divination talent had just passed the level, but now the text in the game is a bit wrong, why everyone is shocked and envious, even the president came to shake his hand in person...
Could it be that his divination talent is very high?
Mu You looked thoughtfully at Vivian who was resting on the ancient knowledge tree in the distance.
However, he didn't step forward to ask in detail. It doesn't matter whether the talent is high or not, as long as it is enough to join the divination club.
【You told President Lott your reason: You want to take the upgrade exam, and I hope he can help you write a letter of recommendation. 】
【"Of course!" Lott smiled and agreed to your request. Divination is a very practical occupation in life, so the other party is not worried that you will quit the club after getting the recommendation letter. Staying in the club can speed up your divination skills, which is a better choice for both parties. 】
【Lotter doesn't mind writing a recommendation letter for you, but due to school regulations, you must first complete the requirements of the divination club before you can be eligible for recommendation. 】
The divination agency is very generous and doesn't care about issuing a letter of recommendation, but it also requires him to meet the conditions first.
【You ask Lott, what are the requirements recommended by the divination agency? 】
【Lott tells you that you need to perform a divination on him and the six vice presidents respectively. Only when the results of the divination are all correct can you be recommended. 】
[In addition, Lott reminded you that these seven divinations are not of ordinary difficulty. The one who knows the fortuneteller best will always be the fortuneteller. In the divination proposed by the seven of them, various confusing traps will be set up to guide you. The result is wrong, so be careful when divination. 】
Mu You didn't expect the president to be so kind, and even reminded him that there would be traps in the test.
But at this time, he had no other choice but to force it.
【You are led by Lott into an empty divination room. The walls around the divination room are made of soundproof materials to ensure that the communication during the divination process will not be heard by outsiders. At this time, the table was already filled with various divination tools such as Tarot cards, wind chimes, feathers, and crystal balls. 】
【One minute after you entered the room, the first fortune-teller walked into the fortune-telling room. 】
【The visitor is a witch, one of the vice presidents of the divination club, named Sinclair Jane, who has special experience in wind chime divination. 】
【Jane sits down in front of you familiarly, and shows you a kind smile: "Don't be nervous, newcomer."】
【You took a deck of tarot cards, shuffled them, spread them out on the table, and asked the other party what they wanted to divination. 】
【"My boyfriend is among those members you just met, guess who he is?" Jane said. 】
