Chapter 24 The Game Hall

After Anja went back home with her father, she still remembered the name, Marcus.

Was the talented pharmacist who made the drug the one she knew?

This question was stuck in her heart. If she couldn't get an answer, she might not be able to sleep tonight.

Anja opened the door, poked her head out, and observed.

There was no one outside.

Then she stood on tiptoe and sneaked out of the house.

As soon as Anja got out of the house, she ran fast. It was not until she ran far away that she sent Monica a message to ask her out.

When she arrived at the north wall of the school, she saw the blurry figure in front of her.

"Monica" Anja waved her hand and ran to her excitedly.

"Anja, it's so late. Why do you want to meet me? Is there anything urgent?"

Monica walked up to her and asked in confusion.

Anja opened her mouth and whispered something in her ear.

"What? Is it possible?" Monica frowned and couldn't believe it.

Monica always thought her brother was a loser.

How could he practice medicine?

"I don't know, but this is the name my father told me." Anja shook her head.

The two girls gathered here and discussed for a long time, but they still couldn't reach an agreement.

But since they had come out, they decided to stroll around.

Unconsciously, they arrived at Kane's pub.

Marcus happened to come out and he didn't notice that two girls were looking at him across the street.

Marcus came to this restaurant today.

He had gained a lot.

Several materials could be added to the potion.

He was thinking about the proportion of the medicine and hurried back to the school.

Monica looked at Marcus's back with disdain.

"Anja, did you see him this time? That's my brother. How could a person who comes to this kind of place be a pharmacist?"

With a disappointed look on Anja's face, she tugged at Monica's sleeve and said, "I don't know. Is there another Marcus in our school?"

"Well, it won't be him anyway."

Monica stamped her feet in shame.

How could this kind of waste who only knew how to enjoy life be her brother?

What Marcus didn't know was that when he came out of Kane's tavern, the two girls looked down upon him.

Now he had returned to the school.

"Analyze the three swordsmanship skills I've practiced."

Marcus decided to practice his swordsmanship first.

He had been refining medicine before.

Now he felt a little tired.

"Swordsmanship skills are analyzing..."

"Meteor strike skill is 80% familiar now."

"The cross-cutting skill is 40% familiar now."

"Space-breaking slash skill is 30% familiar now."

"The three swordsmanship skills can be merged."

The result of the analysis was soon revealed.

"Then let's merge."

The fused sword skills were completely brand-new sword moves.

It would combine the strengths of two sword skills to increase its strength.

"Meteor strike, space-breaking slash. They have a high degree of matching. They can be integrated into the meteor space breaking slash."

The fused swordsmanship instantly appeared in Marcus's mind.

Marcus's eyes lit up. He took out his iron sword and was about to practice.

He waved his sword and turned around. The combination of the fast speed of the meteor strike and the powerful power of the space-breaking slash could achieve an unexpected attack.

After using the whole set of swordsmanship, Marcus stretched his wrists.

After all, it was his first time to do such a thing, so he felt a little unskillful in his movements and felt more stressed.

"The meteor space breaking slash skill has been improved to 10%."

It was easy to improve proficiency in the early stage.

Because every time he practiced, he could correct something wrong.

But in the later stage, if one wanted to achieve perfection, he needed to approach it little by little, and the speed of improvement would be very slow.

"Let's do it again."

Marcus muttered to himself and practiced again with the iron sword in his hand.

After practicing three or four times, Marcus felt much better.

At the same time, his proficiency was also improved to a certain value.

In addition to the meteor space breaking slash, Marcus practiced each swordsmanship separately.

He brought the proficiency of the cross-cutting and the space-breaking slash to the same number as the meteor strike.

Now he was able to master all three sword skills.

Time passed quickly during the practice.

Marcus wiped the sweat off his forehead. Meanwhile, he thought what Tristan had told him before.

He could choose another course.

It was time to get the knight level.

But Marcus didn't know which course to choose.

Although the gold coins in his hands were constantly obtained with the help of medicine, they were also consumed terribly.

Go on with his practice

Marcus picked up the iron sword and was about to continue his practice. Suddenly, he thought of something.

"You have to team up with us in the game hall."

Watson and Parker made an appointment with him with a smile.

He had forgotten about it!

Marcus checked the time.

Fortunately, today was the date they had agreed. It was not too late.

He was always too serious. Once he started to practice, he would easily forget himself.

He couldn't waste any more time.

Marcus immediately changed his clothes and was about to go to the game hall for the appointment.

At this time, in the game hall.

Many people were standing in the hall.

Watson and Parker strolled in the hall, looking at the door from time to time, hoping to see the familiar figure.

The others were anxious and impatient.

They had been waiting for Marcus here for nearly half an hour, but he was still not there.

"Who on earth is coming? We have been waiting here for such a long time."

"Yes, you are right. How arrogant he is!"

"It's so annoying. I'll leave if he doesn't come over."

The crowd whispered and complained to each other in a low voice.

After hearing the whispers, Watson turned to them and gave them a warning look.

Their voices disappeared, but their resentment deepened.

"Who on earth are we waiting for? If he doesn't come, do we have to wait all the time?"

At this time, a freshman walked towards Watson and said in a loud voice, unconvinced.

Everyone's eyes were instantly attracted by him.

With red curly hair, Teddy raised his head and stared at Watson with ignorant courage.

"We are going to take part in the group competition. All the members haven't arrived yet. Isn't it normal to wait?"

Watson lowered his voice and tried to persuade Teddy in a calm tone.

"But we have been waiting for him for so long. Who knows what happened to him?" Teddy was not convinced.

"Then what do you want to do?"

Watson's face darkened.

He would never allow anyone to talk to him so arrogantly, especially the one who was just a freshman.

"I'm going to challenge alone. Since the members of the group competition don't come, I'll take part in the single challenge to prove my strength. I can fight alone."

He swore that he would show himself in front of these people and let everyone see how powerful he was.

"You want to take part in the single match?" Watson almost burst into laughter.

Watson didn't believe the man in front of him who has skinny arms and legs was capable of doing that.

"Yes, I'm going to sign up now."

Teddy seemed to feel something.

He turned around and went to the registration desk.

Teddy said with anger, "Just wait and see! Isn't it just a small challenge?"

Teddy was originally one of the best in the family.

Now in school, he also believed that he could be outstanding.

He walked away from them and went straight to the registration desk.

Since Teddy had made up his mind, Watson and Parker wouldn't stop him.

They looked at each other in confusion.

What should they do?

"If you believe us, you can continue to wait. The one we invited this time is definitely a master. With him in our group, we can be more confident."

Watson turned to them and said solemnly.

"That's right. You just wait for him. You won't regret it."

Parker giggled and said seriously.

A thick layer of doubt gradually appeared in everyone's eyes.

What kind of background would he have to make Parker and Watson respect him so much?

They became more and more curious and couldn't wait to see Marcus's true face.
