Chapter 50: Breakthrough
!!!
Except for Elsie and Lily, who don't know about the new battle, the expressions on the faces of the other two look strange, especially Doro, who has a rare expression of "can you not pull me if you are looking for trouble".
"What's the new battle?" asked Elsie curiously.
Seeing that she didn't know, Doro briefly introduced a few words, the new battle is the stage for the annual rebirth of the empire to bloom, and all the cities and all the academies, people under the age of seventeen, and above the sixth order can participate.
When Doro explained, he didn't keep looking at Elsie, but staring at Mousse, especially when he said the words "above the sixth order", he especially accentuated the pronunciation.
"Brother, don't stare at me like that..."Mousse was looking at him weakly, and sat back in his place, "I'm still far from the sixth order... It's not far off... And there's still a year to go! Brother, you're so good, you'll definitely be able to help me break through. ”
Doro nodded: "You are not far from the sixth order, but the difference between the classes is not just a number, the gap between the fifth order and the sixth order, even at the fastest speed, will take at least a few years, not to mention that you have just broken through the fifth order this year." Doro didn't mean to mock him, he just told the truth in 1510.
"But brother, aren't you just fifteen years old and reached the seventh order..."Mousse didn't dare to say anything more after he finished speaking, because the expressions of everyone staring at him were obviously "Is Doro the same as you?"
"Hey. But I've let my words out, I can't reach the sixth order before the new battle begins, so I'm really going home. And those old men of them may see that I really don't have the materials, so I will go back and inherit the family property. Mousse blinked, and with his well-behaved face, people who didn't know his essence would definitely be deceived, and they only felt that he was a little pitiful.
Because of his special experience, Doro has always adhered to the character of not caring about himself, until he met Elsie, met so many friends with her, experienced so much, and unconsciously, he has subtly changed.
Seeing that Mousse was about to pounce on his face and be coquettish, Doro hurriedly retreated calmly: "Don't come here, I'll help you." ”
"Ahhh
Doro hurriedly said: "Don't be happy so early, just help you train, it's not much different from usual." If you want to break through in a short time, you still have to rely on yourself. ”
Mousse patted his arm with few muscles, full of confidence: "Don't worry, brother! Don't say anything else! Being able to endure hardships is my strength!"
Several people smiled.
......
Time flies, spring goes to winter.
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of winter of the following year.
On the main road of the Sunset Campus, two girls snuggled and walked slowly, the girl with short brown hair rubbed her hands, pulled her own thin hospital uniform, and complained to the girl next to her: "Two days ago, it was a breezy, cool and comfortable weather, but today it is so cold that people can shiver their teeth!"
The blonde girl next to her smiled: "Normal, it's November now, it's almost winter, and the weather is not cold." ”
Elsie was a year older, and at the age of fourteen, she was less thin and slender because of her hard workout, and gradually became a girl, not just a child.
"You better go back and find winter clothes to change into, it will be even colder in two days. Elsie instructed.
Lily leaned lightly on her shoulder, "I always thought it was early in winter." ”
Elsie was silent for a moment, remembering the sight they had come here in late winter last year, and in the blink of an eye it was winter again.
When they came to the door of Wisteria, Mousse, Doro, and Yiri were already standing at the door waiting for them, and Mousse waved and shouted, "Elsie, Lily, hurry up!"
The two walked over, and Elsie said strangely: "Why don't you go in, it's so cold today." ”
Doro smiled, "It's not long since I arrived. ”
Mousse pushed her into the hall: "Don't say so much, come in, why have you been so long today." ”
Elsie turned around and said, "It's all Lily's fault, I went back to see her after class in the morning, and I'm still sleeping!"
Lily stomped her foot, "Elsie, didn't you say you wouldn't tell them!"
As he walked up the stairs, Elsie asked, "Doro, where's Dylan?"
A few people entered the private room and sat down, and Doro replied: "Xiaofei said that he had something to look for him and took him away, don't worry, Xiaofei will take him to dinner." ”
Elsie shook her head: "I'm not worried, it's just strange what Xiaofei has been looking for Dylan to do." ”
Mousse grabbed the menu and looked at it as he said, "She's not from Munne, student?" ”
Elsie was a little amused and a little distressed: "How did you try this?" These days, everyone has not forgotten Dylan, and after consulting many spell potion books, they only came to one conclusion, unless they are life department great magicians, there is nothing they can do about this situation. Regeneration is not as simple as healing, but life system archmages are not everywhere, and Miao En has also been stuck in the ninth order for decades, so it is basically impossible to break through.
Lily saw that Elsie was a little disappointed when she mentioned this, and hurriedly comforted: "We are getting stronger and stronger, and we will always meet the great magician of the life department, and maybe, Elsie, you will be in the future." ”
Elsie barely smiled, "Don't talk about that, but I remember, is the new battle coming?"
As soon as he said this, Mousse's face lowered, and Doro nodded: "There is still a month." It is estimated that the registration will be in another twenty days. ”
Elsie asked cautiously, "Mousse... Haven't broken through yet?"
Mousse slapped the table irritably: "Don't mention it! There is no shadow, watching you break through one by one, I am in a hurry!"
The corners of Elsie's mouth stiffened, saying that it was a breakthrough one by one, but in fact, this year, Elsie, who was the lowest in the crowd, broke through to the fourth order.
"Your experience, the background has actually arrived, but there is still an opportunity to go. Doro spoke. This year, he has helped Mousse train, although the cultivation is different, but he believes that both combat qi and spells are common in some aspects, and there are some similarities in training.
"You told me that two weeks ago...... But after all these days, I still couldn't find any opportunities. Mousse lay on the table in frustration, the previous breakthrough was all natural, and he didn't understand what was missing now.
Mousse has more than ten years of devilish training and family feeding, and a one-year breakthrough is wishful thinking for others, but it is not impossible for Mousse, not to mention Doro, a person who exaggerates that breakthroughs are commonplace to help him formulate a training plan.
Before, he was stuck here now, and no one could help him, so he could only rely on Mousse to comprehend it himself.
Doro shook his head, he had already done what he could, and it didn't help much except encouragement, even if he elaborated on how he felt when he broke through, it was his feelings, not Mousse's.
The waiter knocked on the door to deliver the dishes, Elsie comforted him to eat first, Mousse was boring to eat one bite at a time, Elsie had no choice but to do anything, he was like this when he mentioned the breakthrough in the past two weeks.
Separated from everyone, Mousse didn't pull anyone in and went to the Mingqi campus alone to open a training room.
In the empty and dim room, Mousse sat cross-legged on the ground alone, closing his eyes and thinking.
"What is the opportunity for a breakthrough?"
"Boss Doro said that his breakthrough was because of killing intent, which sounds really terrifying, I am a life-related person, and it is definitely not suitable for me. ”
"Elsie is like me, but she's lower than me, and she can't give me any reference, hey, that's annoying. ”
Mousse closed his eyes and frowned, his face was irritable, he reacted, and hurriedly raised his hands to suppress it, and comforted himself while exhaling: "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, you can't break through in a hurry, think about it quietly." ”
Mousse has a lot of money and opened the most expensive training room, he closed his eyes, and took advantage of the environment to slowly release his spirit.
Mousse closed his eyes, feeling the darkness caused by his gaze gradually fog up, "Elemental shadow, I've never seen it so clear before, is it because there is a magic circle in the training room, so there are enough elements?"
Mousse's intuition was an opportunity, and he was committed to breaking through the limits despite the sea of spiritual consciousness that had reached the limit, and Mousse gritted his teeth to release his spirit.
"The Elemental Shadow is heavier. The voice in Mousse's heart sounded, the fog was extremely thick, Mousse not only had a headache, but also panicked in his heart, this boundless fog reminded him of the scene in the eastern jungle.
"Don't panic!Mousse!This is the shadow of the elements!This is the world I see in my spirit, not nothing!" Mousse suppressed his fear, his forehead breaking out in a cold sweat, his mind gradually flustered from the painful perception of the sea and fear.
"Elsie?" Mousse somehow saw Elsie's face looming in the fog, her face pale and full of despair.
“...... Elsi?" Mousse kept calling in his heart, and he saw a figure emerge behind Elsie, and he couldn't see his face clearly, only that it was a black-haired boy.
The figure of the black-haired boy flickered a few times, and he lifted a giant sword in his hand and slowly slashed towards Elsie in front of him.
Elsie didn't move, but her face was more desperate, and she blinked, a tear running down her cheek. Mousse's spirit was broken, and he kept shouting, "Elsie, run, run!" But he himself was like Elsie in the fog, unable to move, only his voice roared hoarsely, but he couldn't save the person in front of him at all.
Seeing the giant sword touch Elsie's neck, a trace of blood sliding down, Mousse finally shouted, broke free from the invisible restraints, the fog dissipated, and the faces of Elsie and the boy behind him also disappeared.
Mousse opened his eyes violently, and in the confusion, he couldn't tell whether it was an illusion or reality, and he shook it twice and fainted.
