"What's wrong?" Leah stepped forward and asked Nina, only a few minutes later, why did her situation suddenly take a turn for the worse and make such a gaffe?

Just a few hours of contact time, for Leah, Nina is a full chivalrous demeanor, facing everything calmly and properly, and now I only see her, her expression is in a trance, her eyes are flustered, like a rabbit that has been stimulated. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Seeing Leah coming over, Nina lowered her head and muttered, despite Leah being on the side, she still did not hide her expression, and in the eyes of the other girl, she looked downcast.

Leah crouched down, suppressing her fear of women, staring at the starless girl.

"Tell me, what's wrong?" she was a boy in her last life, and she used her unique desire to protect, putting her hands on Nina's shoulders, thinking deep down that this action would make her feel a little more stable and make Nina feel a little protective.

Nina sat on the ground, Leah was half-squatting, and her hands were just flat on it, so there was not a lot of pressure on Leah, and it wouldn't make her arms sore.

Leah waited silently for Nina to return to her original appearance, she knew that at this time, for the girl in front of her, she knew nothing about things, and her speech was unclear and could not find the point. and then approached so closely, it made Leah's goosebumps rise all over, for fear that as soon as she opened her mouth, she would stutter and tremble and say bad things.

Based on the above two considerations, Leah finally decided to keep this posture until the girl in front of her recovered, it was impossible to stay like this forever, right?

Sure enough, this action seemed to have a natural soothing effect on her, and after a few moments, she slowly stopped trembling, raised her head, looked at Leah, and a grateful look appeared. Although it was not a long time, it was enough for Nina to think about a lot of things and get out of the state of stagnation in her brain.

Gently pushed Leah away with his hand, stood up and turned around, where she couldn't see, quietly wiped away the two tear stains left on her face, lowered her head and said to Leah, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper." ”

Leah smiled slightly, with Nina's tone, she knew that she had really calmed down, and people in a calm state could sort out what to do in their brains well, even if Leah didn't ask what to do next, Nina would quickly inform her of what was about to happen, how to deal with it, and even how to get out!

As Leah expected, Nina took a few deep breaths in front of her, a little guilty look on her face, and began to speak.

"Sister Leah, if you want to release the energy in the magic crystal, if you just remove the outer skin shell and meridians, it is still far from enough for me, although I can guide the release of the energy stored in the magic crystal, but I can't control it."

"It's like a water bag, I can make an opening on it, but it is not easy to control the speed and size of the water flow in the future, and the magic crystal is that water bag, without good guidance output, it is easy to go berserk and even explode!"

I saw her slowly spread out her right hand and spread out the magic crystal, its surface was completely devoid of white skin and crimson meridians, although the shape was concave and convex, but the surface was smooth and supple, without grainy noise.

The current magic crystal as a whole is a crystal clear blue, which is more pure than the shape I saw at the beginning, as if there is something more!

Leah was stunned, and suddenly understood, in fact, the bubbles in the middle were gone! I see, those bubbles were not hidden inside the crystals, but in the epidermis and meridians, and due to the twists and turns of the light, the line of sight was wrong, so it was thought that they were in the middle of the magic crystal!

Now look at its magic crystal, like a gemstone with the main tone of cyan blue, among them, it actually contains some faint white, black, red, such five colors and six colors of color particles, so that the whole magic crystal looks particularly beautiful. Leah was naturally a little curious, why didn't these colored particles be seen just now, did she have to remove the outer shell to see these small dots.

Nina's words rang out.

"After the epidermal meridians of the magic crystal are removed, the magic crystal can easily attract the internal magic power as long as it is guided by external magic power, just like the air flow around my index finger when you see me release my skill" Nina paused, recalling the scene just now.

Indeed, every time Nina unleashed the so-called magic skill, her palm was spread out, her index finger was stretched out, and some air currents would surround her, this magical power surprised her, so her memory was also very profound.

Seeing a sudden look on Leah's face, she continued.

"The magic crystal is mobilized by the external magic power, and it will also release the internal magic power, if there is a suitable guidance, then the magic power will be used by the releaser, and it can even be blessed inside the object, with extremely strong attack power!"

Leah nodded, in clarity.

As soon as Nina finished saying this, she suddenly calmed down, took out an object, spread her left hand side by side to the left side of the magic crystal, and said, "This suitable guide is it, force guide ball!"

A flattened sphere?This is the first thing that comes to Leah's mind when she sees the object in Nina's hand.

"Sister Leah, you also feel very strange, why is it called a ball, but it is flattened on one side. Nina said with some bitterness, "Yes, the force guide ball should have been a complete sphere. ”

Her words undoubtedly affirmed what Leah was thinking, the prototype of this force guide ball was a sphere, but she didn't know why it was flattened, thinking of this, Leah was stunned for a moment, and blurted out.

"Wild boar?"

When Nina heard what Leah said, she nodded with a bitter face: "Yes, the boar impact washed me into the tree, and the force guide ball just hung behind my waist, although it took a lot of force for me and reduced the damage, but it also caused it to collapse and destroy one side. ”

"Can't you use it?" Leah tilted her head, remembering the soldier ball, squeezing out the concave side and continuing to use it, although the elasticity effect is a little lower, but it can still play happily.

"No, no, there are lines on the surface of the force guide ball as an array, once it is damaged in a large area, it will not be usable! If, if! We didn't get the magic crystal just now, and the time is still noon, we may still be able to take advantage of the weakening period of the Demon Beast in the Youtan Forest to forcibly rush out of the beast forest, but now the magic crystal can't be used, it won't work at all!" Nina's reddened eyes hadn't subsided, and now she began to accumulate some tears, as if she was about to cry.

"Show me. Leah held out her hand to Nina. Nina touched her eyes, quickly wiped away the accumulated tears, and handed her the force guide ball without hesitation.

"No, the whole body of the force guide ball is made of iron, which is calcined by the forger at one time, and then carved by the engraver with a formation pen, relying only on these two points, it is decided that it cannot be repaired with bare hands. What's more, it is necessary to ensure that the shape and texture of the left and right sides are the same, and even ordinary casters and engravers cannot do this without special tools!"

Nina clenched her fists, her voice raising slightly.

Leah was silent for a while.

"Is wood okay?" said Leah, who suddenly asked something that made Nina feel strange.

"Wood?" Nina was obviously stunned, and reacted that it might be worth a force guide ball, so she said: "There are force guide balls of wood, it is said that wood was originally used in the past, but later it was found that although wood can be used, it is much worse than metal in conductivity and use time, so it was discarded, and it was changed to a metal forged sphere." ”

"So, is that okay?" asked Leah tentatively.

"Absolutely. Nina suddenly thought of something, trembled, looked at Leah with wide eyes, and said with some stammering: "You, are you?"

She couldn't believe that Leah didn't know anything about magic and spiritual powers, but she wanted to carve a force guide ball! Could it be that the girl in front of her was actually from the family of carving?

Seeing the hesitant expression on Nina's face, Leah said earnestly word by word, "Well, I'm going to carve a force guide ball!"

"Really?" Nina was stunned, but her eyes were a little wandering, she still didn't believe in Leah's level, even if it was as she thought in her head, maybe Leah was from a wood carving family, but a girl younger than her, could she carve a force guide ball? And this force guide ball may not even have been seen before!

Is it really possible?, Nina asked herself in her heart. Even if I haven't done it, I have used it, it's not that I don't know how complicated it is to make a force guide ball, and the girl in front of me, who is only ten years old, has to carve one out of wood!

"Sister Leah, the lines are not like painting on the sand! It needs to be completely accurate to channel the magic power inside the magic crystal! Moreover, can you really carve the symmetrical spheres on both sides?" Nina said hesitantly to Leah, in fact, with their current situation, they can only rely on Leah's words.

Leah smiled and didn't answer. He just raised the force guide ball in his hand and asked, "Miss Nina, are these two sides of the sphere symmetrical?" Leah held the ball and pointed to the surface, they were very lucky, the sunken side happened to be one of the two sides, not half of each side damaged.

"Hmm!" Nina nodded. Say yes.

Leah stopped talking nonsense and began to take a closer look at the orb. Although half of it is flattened, the symmetry makes it easier for her to observe and restore.

The sphere is the size of a green fruit, the size of a baby's fist.

There is a triangular opening in the middle of the sphere, which should be the entrance where the magic crystal is put in, the opening is extremely small, looking at the magic crystal in Nina's hand, which is only half a thumb smaller, this opening seems to be not wide enough, but Leah knows that it is only visual, and it should be just stuffed into it, and it will not fall out.

Except for the triangular opening where the magic crystal is placed and the half that has been flattened, there is not a single seam in the inside of the sphere, which must be the so-called one-time forging.

Suddenly, Leah remembered that Nina seemed to be fine! It must be the effect of one of her inner armors, right? Leah shook her head, throwing away other unwanted thoughts.

Inside the sphere are raised oval-shaped columns, which were cast to hold the crystals in place.

Look at the outside of the sphere.

The surface texture of the sphere is a broken line that intersects at right angles, like a maze of countless blocked exits, the lines are clear and coherent, and the threads in place seem to be integrated into one, faintly like some words?

Leah looked at it several times, recording the shape and lines of the sphere in her mind.

"Hey?" Nina began to be stunned when she saw Leah holding the force guide ball, was this about to give up. She couldn't help but laugh wryly.

"How can a little girl younger than my grade carve a force guide ball that a first-order engraver and a caster can make?" Nina muttered to herself, pinning her hopes on a little girl, it was still a little ridiculous.

How could a young girl have the carving skills of a first-order engraver who needed to accumulate for a long time? In her impression, all the engravers, forgers, and pharmacists were gray-haired old men, and even if they were younger, they were at least middle-aged.

Thinking of this, Nina couldn't help but give up a little. She looked out into the jungle and muttered to herself.

"Father, are you all right?"

I'm sorry, Father, and thank you for your teachings over the years. ”

Nina watched the sun begin to set in the west, and slowly closed her eyes. With just such a little time, it is impossible for him to break through to the high level all at once and take Leah to break through this Youtan Forest smoothly.

Just a first-order wild boar completely overdrew her magic power, not to mention that there were second-order, or even third-order demonic beasts in the forest, who completely crushed them.

Third-order demonic beasts! Even my father had to be extremely cautious when he met him, and he would even drink power-enhancing potions without hesitation, high-grade potions, at least two gold coins in a bottle, enough for her living expenses for a month! Not to mention those high-grade magic potions!

While Nina was still thinking cranky.

Leah had already begun to act, she pinched the back of the knife with four fingers and thumbs, only half a fingernail-width from the tip of the knife, and pressed the handle of the dagger against her wrist, so that the strength of the wrist could be better released, and the force of the dagger when cutting through the branch caused the dagger to fall.

Cutting begins!

The cyan branch was about a meter long, and it quickly broke into more than a dozen sections under the swing of the dagger in Leah's hand, but Leah looked at the broken wooden block of a branch, and felt that it was not enough, so she continued to cut the remaining branches.

Leah was very pleased with the sharp dagger. The wood in the forest is a high-grade, high-grade short-grained hardwood, and although it has not been broken for a long time, it no longer needs to be distilled with additional water, which greatly satisfies Leah and saves a lot of effort.

At the same time, although it is a short-grained hardwood that is not easy to carve, and the molded wood pieces are used for a long time, but it is a nightmare for ordinary carving tools, because the high-grade hardwood is hard, although it can make very good works, but the damage to the knife is extremely serious, most of the carving of a large item, to polish the knife several times.

Nina's dagger completely ignores this problem, and the feeling of the reverse grip is extremely suitable, and it is indeed enough for the current lack of a variety of relief techniques, just a flat carving of an item that does not need to be decorated.

Although I was curious about what material the dagger was made of and how it was forged, I still had to concentrate on carving the wood in front of me.

The branches of the wood cutting must be smooth and flat, there is not a lot of time, and the focus on the dagger must be controlled in place and formed in one step, otherwise there may be some impact on the follow-up.

Moreover, Leah found that the outer skin of the wood here was very thick, and once the deep lines were carved, the outer layer of carved branches would soon dry up and become brittle, and in the end only a small part of the center could be used, so Leah had to extract the part in the center.

Instead of carving out the force guide ball all at once.

Maybe this is the characteristic of the wood here, just like the failure to make a fire just now, and the reason why it is all wood.

At the same time, the grinding of wooden parts with a dagger is not the best choice. For such objects that do not have large edges and corners on the outside, you should use coarse sandpaper and add thin sandpaper to sand, but there are obviously no such tools around.

In addition, this time, there was no tool to apply ink lines, but relied on the shallow scratches left by the dagger for positioning, so this time it was quite a challenge.

Leah shook the dagger in her hand once more.

Hearing the sound of cutting the branches, Nina turned her head, but found that Leah did not hesitate to cut all the branches into small pieces, a little surprised, she was afraid that one time would not be successful, so she cut into multiple pieces, try a few more times? At this time, although noon has passed, there is still an hour before dusk, it should be completed, right?

Nina muttered to herself.

Seeing Leah's accurate and fast cutting of the branches, I was actually looking forward to it at this time. If Leah successfully completes the production of the force guide ball, then she can at least use the force guide ball to improve her ability to the level of fighting against second-order demonic beasts, as long as they don't encounter extremely rare third-order demonic beasts on the way, then they can go out smoothly.

Leah left the only branch under Nina's expectant gaze, which was Nina's request, and although she didn't know what it was for, she still remembered it in her mind and didn't forget it.

In a moment, the wood turned into a large splinter.

"Leigh, sister Leah?" Nina felt a little helpless when she saw Leah sculpt like this, she couldn't guess what Leah was trying to do. Oh my God, could it be that you just practiced with a dagger? you just used a dagger to cut wood for fun? Nina couldn't help but want to interrogate Leah's thoughts.

Nina waited for Leah to continue her actions, and really wanted to ask Leah what she was going to do.

Leah paused for a few seconds, then began to act again under Nina's gaze.

The pieces of wood flew in Leah's hands, scraping out strips of wood and sawdust. The dagger seemed to play tricks in Leah's hands, sometimes cutting flat, sometimes carving.

The branches were still very fresh at the time, and there was a little moisture left, but under the sharp cutting of the dagger, the juice in the branches did not seep out, and the dagger easily cut them off.

As she held the tool to carve the wood in front of her, Leah seemed to enter a special empty place, with only her dancing hands and the constantly flying wooden blocks, no sound to be heard, and no distractions in her head.

It's an ethereal state. It's like doing something you're interested in, and your concentration is extremely intense. Leah had been before, but never as clearly as it is now.

She can feel:

The slightest coolness of the wood is entrained.

A hint of sandalwood.

The blade of the dagger gently brushed the sawdust from the wood, as if it could be magnified several times in her eyes, and easily cut away the unwanted surface.

Every piece of wood will naturally change into the shape she wants, without any mistakes.

The shapes that had just been arranged in her mind seemed to fly out of her mind, forming a unique ring around her. How to carve the next step, what shape to carve next, every rhythm and pace, are so smooth and smooth, as if they have been done thousands of times, every step is so simple and clear.

Of course, Nina didn't think so, and she could only see Leah cutting through the pieces of wood, making them smaller and smaller in circles, and finally piling them aside. She couldn't help but feel a deep sadness in her heart, looking at such a situation, Leah must not be able to carve the power to guide the ball.

In her eyes, no matter how much Leah carved, the wooden blocks were eventually discarded from her hands, and the rudiments of the sphere were not visible at all, but they kept failing, failing, and failing again.

So Nina's piling of Leah's wooden blocks to the side was naturally understood as waste.
