The Arcane God - Chapter 90

Chapter 90: Maya, The Water Mage [X]
Mad Smiley and was shocked, and immediately stretched out his hands into the bubble on his head.

Fortunately, the water bubble didn’t have any defenses, and he pinched his nose with his hands. After that, he covered his ears tightly with his other hand.

But there was one thing that Mad Smiley couldn’t help with, just like Lindley, and that was the fact that he also had two ears and two hands.

Mad Smiley felt that the huge water pressure rushed into his other ear in an instant.

When he laughed, he felt a humming sound in his head, and his body shook three times, but he didn’t fall. He subconsciously released the hand covering his nose and covered the other ear.

But sadly, a huge stream of water began to rush into the nostrils of the water mage.

Mad Smiley now blamed his parents for giving birth to him with just two hands. It would be great if he had three hands. At least then he wouldn’t have to suffer this way.

In the panic, Mad Smiley suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he came up with a solution. He endured the huge shock and opened his hands.

Then, with one thumb on each side, after plugging both ears and eyes, he turned his hands in front of his face and blocked both nostrils with his two middle fingers.

Mad Smiley only felt the pressure drop, and finally blocked all the holes in the head. At this time, there was still a buzzing sound in his mind which was shaken by the previous water shock.

He stabilized his mind and steadied his swaying footsteps. Against the water pressure on his head, he forced his eyes open, only to see a figure standing in front of him.

Maya was standing playfully in front of Mad Smiley, with her small head tilted and her big watery eyes staring at Mad Smiley’s funny predicament, blinking innocently, as if she had nothing to do with him.

On both sides of Maya’s body, more than a dozen ice picks were suspended in the air.

Mad Smiley stood still, and did not dare to move.

Seeing this, Maya asked, “Uncle, do you still want to continue?”

Mad Smiley covered his face with his hands, and his fingers blocked the four holes in his head. He shook his head vigorously, but did not dare to speak. Mad Smiley lest he opened his mouth, water rushed into his mouth.

Seeing that, Maya laughed and shook her head like a rattle, and said with a tender smile, “So, are you admitting defeat?”

Mad Smiley immediately nodded vigorously.

Maya then smiled with satisfaction and glanced at the examiner who nodded in acknowledgement.

So, Maya immediately withdrew her essence. The water bubble on Mad Smiley’s head and the ice shards in the air disappeared without a trace.

Feeling the weight vanished, Mad Smiley put his hands down from his face, gasped violently for a long time, and vomited a lot of water from his mouth.

The chief examiner stepped forward and announced loudly, “The contest is over, Maya Frostbane wins! The next group will compete.”

Maya glanced at the Mad Smiley who was still stooping and panting, stuck out her tongue, and said, “Uncle, are you okay? Would you like me to help you down?”

Mad Smiley was like a beaten eggplant at this time, and he waved at Maya, which means: Just get lost.

Afterwards, Mad Smiley reluctantly straightened up and walked out of the arena.

“Don’t be discouraged, my dear friend. We are with you.” Lindley walked up to Mad Smiley with a wicked smile on his face. Then he put a hand on Mad Smiley’s shoulder and they both disappeared outside the arena.

After Maya won the game, she didn’t leave. Since the results of the trials would be announced after the competition this morning, the winners of the competition will go directly to the players resting area to wait for the judge to announce the final result.

Maya walked into the rest area, found a place and sat down cross-legged to recover her exerted energy.

It didn’t mean that Maya had become more diligent, and that she used it to refine ether whenever she had time. It was just because she played a little bit too much in the contest just now, so she let her essence be exhausted.

If Mad Smiley could have held on for a while longer and avoided Maya’s last blister magic attack, maybe the final result would have been reversed.

Although Maya’s attack might seem like an understatement, every attack could only be done by Maya relying on a large amount of essence release and full output of her powerbase.

This was also because Maya’s essence value was abnormally high and because of the magic worms that she had eaten for a year, she could do such a perfect attack in the competition.

However, it was impossible to maintain such an attack mentally. Especially the huge snow that Maya manifested and controlled at the end, it was mentally and essence exhausting.

And the blister magic attack after that almost drained Maya’s essence and mental power.

The dozen or so ice picks Maya finally manifested were only there to scare him. If Mad Smiley really wanted to launch an attack recklessly at that time, Maya really wouldn’t have the power to move the ice pick.

Maya’s biggest gain in this year’s retreat was the strengthening of her essence and mental power. This greatly enhanced her control over magic. That’s why it was possible to turn ordinary tricks like blister magic into something so bizarre, which surprised all the water students present.

After Maya came off the field, she immediately sat in the rest area to recover the consumed essence and mental energy. After a quarter of an hour, the rest of the game was finally over. The final four have also been identified.

Among the four students who qualified for the water competition, except for Maya who was still in the high-level of the copper stage, the other three were all at the early stage as bronze mages. Among the four, only one was a male student.

It was too obvious that among the students of the water department, girls not only occupied the majority of the numbers, but were also stronger than the boys in terms of water affinities and abilities.

No wonder women were also called water breathers in ancient times. Their water attribute was super strong, and they didn’t feel any weakness.

After announcing the end of the water competition, the instructor gave a blue medal to each of the top four students in the competition as usual.

After Maya took the blue medal, she saw that it was made of blue sapphire. On one side of the medal was engraved with the pattern of the Mystic Bird, while the other side of the medal was engraved with two words:

“Mystic Keep”.
