Chapter 11: Meditation
On the first night on the Daughter of the Sea after leaving the harbor of Estin, all the boys and girls were called to a hall on the top floor of the ship. The www.biquge.info of this hall is very large, even if more than a hundred people are standing here, it is not too crowded.
When Phil came up with Joanna and the road, there were already a lot of people standing here.
"Hey, your name is Phil, right?"
Someone suddenly shouted behind Phil's back.
Phil turned around, it was a young man in a fancy dress, and there were several people next to him, looking the same table of luxurious and wealthy people.
"Yes and what." Phil replied coldly.
"I'm—"
Phil interrupted him, "No need to tell me who you are, I know you. ”
These people on the opposite side are several princes and princesses of the Atlantan Empire, and the one who spoke is the highest among the few, ranking seventh, and in the rumors, there are even the lives of other princes in their hands, and they are fierce and cunning, but they didn't expect to be taken to the sea ship in the end, indicating that they all have wizard qualifications.
Interrupted by Phil, the others behind the prince wanted to come forward to teach Phil a lesson, but he waved his hand to stop him.
"It turns out that you also have wizard qualifications, no wonder my stupid brother can't kill you." He said, "Since we are all on the same ship, and we are also a kind of fate, I don't want to care about the grudge between you and my stupid brother, how about you come under my command, and when I become a wizard, you will be my apprentice, how about it?" ”
He said that he was soliciting Phil, but the difference in the rank of the words was clearly distinguished.
"Since it's fate, how about the day I become a wizard, how about your family being a powerful group of people and just becoming a group of white bone troops under my command?" Phil replied that he had seen in some legends that some wizards would often summon the bones of the underworld as combat power, so he said so.
"You!"
The prince was just about to scold, but the Dante wizard in front of him appeared, so he had to settle down and glared at Phil fiercely before turning to leave.
"They look fierce, doesn't it matter?" Joanna said worriedly.
"I don't know what happened to you, but that guy knows at a glance that he's not a good person!" The road patted Phil on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, my friend's business is my business!" ”
"It's okay, when you get to the wizarding world, everyone starts over." Phil whispered, "Only the strongest will survive to the end." ”
With that, Phil and the others turned to look at Wizard Dante. Wizard Dante was still the same as before, wearing a black robe, his exposed hands were very dry, and his face was young with vicissitudes, but he forgot it in a blink of an eye.
"You are all qualified to be wizards." Wizard Dante said, his voice echoing through the quiet hall, "But before that, there is also a distinction between a first-class wizard apprentice, a second-class wizard apprentice, and a third-class wizard apprentice. ”
"Are wizard apprentices as good as wizards? Are there any knights in my house? "Someone asked, it was a fat man, who seemed to be dismissive of the wizard's apprentice, and perhaps had been bullied by his father's knights when he was at home.
The black-robed man looked over and was not angry, but replied: "Don't underestimate the wizard apprentice, the combat power of the third-class wizard apprentice can match the official knight, the second-class wizard apprentice can make a few big knights hate, and the first-class wizard apprentice, even the paladin is far from comparable." ”
The crowd was in an uproar. Because this is a continent where the power of knights is honored, knights are the measure of strength between empires and kingdoms. Knights are divided into official knights, grand knights, and paladins. As long as you become an official knight, you can get ahead, and if you become a grand knight, you can have a kingdom title, and even get a territory. Paladins are very rare, and the appearance of a paladin means the possibility of the kingdom being promoted to the empire. But now that I heard that just a first-class wizard apprentice can far outperform a paladin, what kind of existence is a formal wizard?
Phil wasn't too surprised because he had heard the idea that an empire was nothing more than an ant in the eyes of wizards, but he was looking forward to his future life even more. It's just that he didn't know that Wizard Dante had reduced the strength of the wizard's apprentice countless times in this sentence.
"Master Dante, you told me before that the power of wizards is endless, not only powerful destructive power, but also infinite vitality, is this true?"
Phil turned to look at the road, because that's exactly what he was asking.
"It is difficult for a powerful wizard to do so," said Wizard Dante, earnestly, "but the soul is different, and I think you should have hope in yourself." ”
"It's hard for even a powerful wizard to do it" Hearing this, Phil suddenly began to get excited, just said that it was difficult, not that it couldn't be done, is it that as long as it is stronger than the powerful, it has the ability to resurrect the dead? Phil knows that he is not the real Phil, but since the last time he heard a song called "Tears on the Moonlight River", he has gradually regarded himself as the original Phil, maybe it is the emotions hidden deep in his memory that infect him, but if he can really resurrect his parents and younger brother, the current Phil is willing to do all his best to do it!
"That's good......" Lu whispered in Phil's ear, and it was hard to imagine that his cheerful personality could reveal such weakness. It seems that he and Phil are thinking the same thing.
Joanna suddenly shook the hands of the two in the middle, and didn't say anything, just smiled.
Next, a few more people asked some questions, and Wizard Dante answered them kindly.
"Don't be in a hurry, now you don't even count as a third-class wizard apprentice," Wizard Dante continued, "first of all you have to learn the meditation method, meditate according to it every day, and then start thinking about these questions when you become aware of the presence of spiritual power in your mind." ”
"Stand still, I'm going to teach you the meditation method now, and if you succeed, you can be considered to have truly embarked on the path of wizards."
After Wizard Dante finished speaking, the whole hall first darkened, and then the ground and walls suddenly lit up, and countless lines and lines shone brightly, and before Phil could see clearly, it suddenly became dark in front of him, and in a blink of an eye, he found himself in an endless netherworld.
It was dark from front to back, left and right, up and down, Phil was like a feather floating in the air, floating everywhere, black mist slowly appeared around him, and some extremely tiny particles lit up with a meager light, and slowly drifted into Phil's body.
At the same time, Phil hears a strange singing voice, and he can't hear the lyrics, but it's very beautiful.
Phil subconsciously wants to find the source of the song, so he flies around, and finally finds that the song seems to be outside the fog.
He walked into the fog, but he could only stand still, and he couldn't get out.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from above, and Phil found himself standing on a mountain at some point, surrounded by shattered earth, and black clouds overhead, and slowly a great fear pressed down, splitting the whole sky.
Phil seemed stunned and didn't move.
Gradually waking up from this state, the originally comfortable body suddenly left, turning into physical fatigue and severe pain in the head. Then Phil realized that he was sitting on the ground at some point. The same is true for the people around him, except for a few people, Phil woke up earlier.
After a while, after a few more people woke up, the wizard Dante in front of him said, "You guys are very good, go back and rest first, your meditation method is already in your mind tonight, let them stay here for the rest of the people." ”
Phil immediately found that there was a little more thing in his mind, ethereal as if there was nothing, this is the spiritual power that the black-robed man said? Phil also found that his memory had something called meditation, and with his meager mental power, he could not speak in words, but he knew that he could meditate and increase his mental power according to this meditation method.
Both Phil and Lu were among the first to wake up, and only Joanna in the middle of them was still sitting cross-legged, with a gentle and lovely smile on her face.
Phil thanked the wizard Dante and turned to leave. As he left the hall, Phil glanced back and found that Wizard Dante was also turning around and walking into his own room inside the hall, perhaps after meditation, the world in front of him was different, Phil seemed to see Wizard Dante last glance back at the young girl who was still sitting on the floor, that look, in addition to sharpness, seemed to be a little cold.
After about half an hour, Joanna and the others came down one after another and returned to the room.
Joanna knocked on the door to say hello, and Phil stood in the door to talk to her.
Phil asks her about meditation.
Joanna said that she saw nothing but darkness, and that she was a bit bored, and that if it hadn't been for Dante's wizard stopping what was said to be a witchcraft circle and lighting the lights in the hall, she would have fallen asleep at the end.
Joanna also blamed him for walking so early, because when the light came on, she woke up and felt a little confused, and when she woke up, she found that Phil and Lu were gone.
"We woke up early, so we left first." Phil said they didn't specifically explain how early they woke up.
"Wizard Dante said that now we can only meditate once a day, otherwise it will be a headache," Joanna didn't care, and said something else, "It's a pity, in fact, I think now that the feeling when meditating is still amazing." ”
After saying a few more words, Joanna reluctantly returned to her room.
Phil closed the door, took a shower, and lay down on the bed.
Update the database. Phil gives the order to the cactus.
"Scanned for new data and is absorbing ...... Drip! Drip! The data contains unknown energy and cannot be absorbed, please upgrade. ”
The meditation method could not be updated to the database, which was a long guess, and Phil just tried it. However, it is a little strange that the chip can be upgraded, and I have never heard of an upgrade when I was on Earth.
"Look for chip upgrade conditions."
"Not enough rank to answer."
Phil didn't know what to do with this reply.
That's it.
Phil closed his eyes and involuntarily began to meditate according to the meditation method in his mind.
Then it occurred to him that the wizard of Dante had asked them to rest, but in the blink of an eye, Phil found that he had reappeared in the netherworld-
It's like a feather floating in the air, fluttering everywhere......
