Chapter 57: Nothing at all

"Huh?" Zhao Yu glared at the boss, "Why do you say that?"

Shen Mengting folded her arms disdainfully: "In the profession of magician, there is no human being who can reach the level of uncle! This is not what I am talking about, it is the unanimous agreement of almost all human masters." Uncle Yang Jiening's attainments among magicians have reached the point where all human beings are beyond their reach. No one has been able to catch up with him, and there will never be any!"

Zhao Yu was like being knocked on a sharp stick, he put down his staff in embarrassment, and wiped the back of his hand on his nose and mouth, "Don't say it so absolutely!"

"Even if there is, Zhao Yu. That can't be something you can achieve!" Shen Mengting spread her hands. But soon, she resumed her original hand-hugging movement, "I think you'd better become a real magician first!"

"Ahh......h Haven't you even become a true magician?"

Shen Mengting didn't answer explicitly, but just responded with a tilted head and rolled her eyes. 'What do you think'? that's what she's trying to say.

Zhao Yu straightened up in an instant, and he put the staff in front of Shen Mengting and shook it: "But didn't you see it before! I used this stick to beat those steppenwolves!"

"You're just using the most basic of a mage's moves, the Magic Bullet. Do you know what tricks it corresponds to among the swordsmen?" Shen Mengting hugged her facial features, looking extremely irritable.

"What...... What?" Zhao Yu asked cautiously.

"It's not a move. Shen Mengting suddenly spread her hands outward, like bursting fireworks, "The magic qi bomb is just a flat slash corresponding to the swordsman." In other words, air bombs are just the most basic primer. The equivalent is also the archery of an archer. ”

Zhao Yu was a little speechless, he only felt that a bone was stuck in his throat.

"You might as well think about it this way. Even if a person who has not reached the primary qualification of a swordsman, he only has a little strength, he can still pick up a sword and slash it casually! Of course, the mage's air bomb may be of a higher grade, but it is not a very difficult thing to learn. Basically, after a week of exposure to magicians, most students will be able to master it. ”

"So...... Zhao Yu! You are really far away! Don't say anything powerful magician, even if you become a magician, there is still a very long way to go for you!"

When Zhao Yu heard this, he waved his arm in discouragement. His shoulders hung low, "That means that I will never reach Yang Jiening's level?"

"Zhao Yu!" Shen Mengting's tone became bitter, "Everyone has the grade that everyone should have, and I remember telling you these words a long time ago." If you don't have extraordinary talent, then make up for it with diligence! As long as you work hard, you can always find your goal!"

"But...... But......" Zhao Yu quickly rolled his eyes, and when his pupils could focus on a point, he quickly followed, "It's not that you haven't seen it, I haven't even read the magician books, but I used magic." Isn't that talent?"

"Well, it's talent!" Shen Mengting stared at Zhao Yu intently, and she nodded quickly, "Maybe you have a good talent in the profession of magician." However, that's just compared to the average person. If you really want to compare with those geniuses, you will fall more than a little. ”

Zhao Yu sighed, his mouth pursed forward, "Then you said before that you wanted me to be a magician, because I have been excited for so long!"

"Zhao Yu, I'm just saying that you can learn magicians better than swordsmen. It's not that you can have a lot of attainments if you become a magician!" Shen Mengting patted her clothes everywhere, "Don't talk about Uncle Yang Jiening, just take that Zhang Zhijie as an example, do you know what he's doing at your age?"

Seeing Zhao Yu's unclear look, Shen Mengting immediately circled around Zhao Yu, "Zhang Zhijie was already an intermediate-level magician when he was twenty years old, and he even made a high-level ice pick. At that time, our magic department in Kiyose Castle said that this man would become the leader of Saran. Got it?"

"Also, do you remember that Sauron? Shen Mengting put her hands next to her face and squeezed them as if she was covering something, "His name is He Weilin." Do you know the talent of other magicians? He is the only one in the whole of Celos who is an expert magician before the age of twenty-five, and I believe that he will reach the master level in the future. ”

Zhao Yu was confused by these examples.

"Zhao Yu, everything has to be stepped out step by step, no one has ever been able to ascend to the master level in one step. Shen Mengting came over and patted Zhao Yu's one shoulder.

Why is this kind of thing again? Zhao Yu deliberately walked away a few steps and kept some distance from Shen Mengting.

Zhao Yu knew very well that his mother often said such remarks to him. For a moment, Zhao Yu felt that the shadows of Shen Mengting and her mother had become overlapping.

"Zhao Yu ......"

"Oh, oh, oh!" Zhao Yu quickly waved his hand, blocking what Shen Mengting was about to say.

Not only that, but he also deliberately made it look like he was going to perform magic.

"In short, I'll just take one step at a time, then it's all right! I'll practice magic hard now, so that I can reach a high-level magician in the future!" Zhao Yu said and began his attack posture.

Shen Mengting couldn't help but sigh when she saw it.

Zhao Yu first stuffed the books into his clothes, and then after taking a sharp breath, his legs became in a split position. I only heard his 'ah', and the strength from the whole body was gathered in the clenched body.

That's right! Zhao Yu remembered that when facing Steppenwolf, he released his magic like this.

When the concentrated aura had reached a critical point, Zhao Yu raised the palm of his right hand. As if holding a plate, his palms were facing the sky.

Soon, a breath came out of the palm of his hand. The corners of his mouth curled up in satisfaction.

Shen Mengting, let you continue to pour cold water on me! At this moment, I'll let you see my talent-Zhao Yu looked straight ahead.

The breath was getting louder and louder, and just as he was about to feel uncontrollable, a bright blue light came out. Zhao Yu's entire right hand was also covered by blue light. He said in his heart, 'That's it, that's it.'"

As the light spread to his eyes, he shifted his posture and pushed his right palm forward.

"Magic, use it quickly!" Zhao Yu shouted.

The blue light and aura were all poured out, and it was about to shoot forward. However, at the moment when he pushed his palm, a popping sound sounded out uncoincidentally. Before Zhao Yu could react, the light source in his hand was weakening.

Zhao Yu screamed in surprise in a second tone, but the cry did not slow down the weakening of the light source, and the light source quickly dimmed. He began to flick his right arm in order to rekindle the light source. But that didn't help.

What's going on? Zhao Yu pushed his palm forward again. But this light source seemed to be attached to his hand, and it was completely impossible to rule it out. He could only watch as his spell failed.

"Don't, don't!"

In the end, the light source completely turned into a wisp of smoke with Zhao Yu's shout.

"Ah...... Yes...... How could this be!" Zhao Yu lowered his head and covered his face with his hands.

"Look! I'm right! The strength in your body is not stable now, and you can't be a magician at all! When you can use magic 100 percent, you can talk about how to achieve something in the magician community!" Shen Mengting walked to a certain tree and leaned on the trunk at random.

"Why is this like this!" Zhao Yu shook his hands and stomped his feet.

"Hey, who are you kid giving this face? Let me tell you, there is no shortcut to any profession, and you can only succeed through your own efforts. Don't think about taking one step to the top of the ladder anymore. ”

Zhao Yu pursed his lips, and he immediately sat down on the ground. Frustrated, he picked up the stones on the ground and threw them into the campfire.

"Well, the temper has also been tempered, and the failure has been tasted. Now you can think about how to try to become a magician!" After grinding the soles of her feet against the rough trunk, Shen Mengting stayed away from the big tree.

She and Zhao Yu sat opposite each other, and at the same time did not forget to pay attention to the bonfire next to her.

"Won't I be able to become a talent in my life? Am I just a rotten wood?" Zhao Yu supported his cheek with one hand, and the elbow of that arm naturally supported the bent thigh below.

"It's not that you can't make it. You have to think about it first, what kind of talent is in your heart? Some people want to become generals, and then they feel that they have become talented. In the minds of some people, becoming a talent is just being able to be a soldier and eat. Zhao Yu, I remember telling you this kind of thing before, why do you have to drill the horns?"

Faced with Shen Mengting's explanation, Zhao Yu deliberately turned his head. He didn't want to listen to this woman's reasoning! He was discouraged enough to not be a swordsman, and he finally learned that he could become a magician and have such a strong foundation, but in the end, he still couldn't get the guarantee of having strong strength.

If you can't become an expert or above, then what's the use? How can you avenge your mother! While imagining irritably, Zhao Yu unconsciously shook his calves.

At this time, a question suddenly occurred to him. How did a genius magician come to be? For example, the old man named Yang Jiening, what was his past?

As soon as the idea of doubt flashed out, he couldn't wait to ask Shen Mengting.

"Then I want to know, what was the old man like when he was young? Did he always 'whimsical' want to be the strongest magician in the world?"

"Huh, why did you ask that question all of a sudden?"

"I just want to know what the so-called genius magician was like when he was younger?"

Shen Mengting thought for a while, but shook her head helplessly: "I'm sorry, I don't know much about Uncle Yang Jiening when he was young, and he won't mention this to me." Besides, is it too disrespectful for a junior to ask an old-timer about his past?"

Zhao Yu thought about it, but at this moment he was still full of curiosity about this person named Yang Jiening. In fact, by the river where they first met, didn't Zhao Yu want to get to know this person well?

"Then can you tell me his story?" Zhao Yu looked at Shen Mengting, "For example, your relationship with him, what happened to him, and how did he live in Qingse City during his lifetime?"

Shen Mengting listened to this kind of question, and her head gradually raised: "Do you really want to know him?"

"That's right, his staff is now mine, and I don't think it's too much to know the owner of the weapon!"

"Well, that's right. Shen Mengting nodded, "However, if you really want to know anything about him, such as whether you can hear anything big about him, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed." Uncle Yang Jiening is actually just an ordinary person, and I rarely hear him talk about anything vigorous. Except for ......"

Shen Mengting suddenly stopped talking, and her expression became a little strange. Zhao Yu couldn't help but shudder when he saw it. Shen Mengting's face was shaking with patches of irregular shadows, which was caused by the illumination of the bonfire.

"Except when it comes to resisting the Sauron Empire. Shen Mengting's eyes were slowly narrowing.

"What did he say when he resisted the Thorin Empire?" Zhao Yu asked tentatively.

He said that he must resist to the death, and he must not compromise with the Sauron Empire. Otherwise, we, the people of Saran, will surely experience the worst nightmare. ”

Zhao Yu inhaled sharply when he heard this, he didn't know what Shen Mengting meant by this, and he didn't understand, why didn't he be tough on the Sauron Empire, they Saran people were going to experience a terrible nightmare?

"He hates the Sauron Empire!"

"It's not hate!" Shen Mengting suddenly roared extremely loudly, "but he knows very well what kind of country the Sauron Empire is! No, it should be said that every clear-headed Saranite should know the threat of the Sauron Empire. ”

Not only her tone, but also her expression became more hideous, as if she was currently facing an evil demon.

Zhao Yu's breathing was chaotic, and he swallowed his saliva slightly. "Are the Saurons really bad?"

"Then you don't need to say!" Shen Mengting suddenly folded her neck and turned to Zhao Yu's side, "Aren't you yourself a victim? Wasn't your mother also killed by them? You would even ask such a childish question." The people of the Sauron Empire are not bad, so will there be bad people in Serloth?"

Zhao Hui was yelled at so that he had no momentum, he shrunk his neck, and faced Shen Mengting with an observation posture. There is no doubt that Shen Mengting's hatred for the Sauron Empire is beyond imagination. He wondered if this woman's family had also died at the hands of the Sauron Empire.

"Hey!" Zhao Yu carefully poked his finger at Shen Mengting, and his tone was soft, "Do you have an important person who has been killed by Sauron......!"

"Hehe, if only the family were good. Do you know where the horror of the Sauron Empire is!" Shen Mengting gradually overlooked. However, the sharp feeling did not fade away, "They will build a clique of elites parasitic on the common people, so that their children and grandchildren can enjoy themselves for generations to come." And then, the civilians of this country were miserable, and they were slaves for the rest of their lives. So, no matter what, I'm going to avoid Saran being swallowed up by Sauron. Because then we, the people of Saran, will be enslaved forever by the Saurons. ”

The atmosphere in the woods was silent, probably because of Shen Mengting's heavy words. Zhao Yu only felt that cold sweat was breaking out on his forehead, and he gently wiped it with the back of his hand.

Shen Mengting also maintained a steady breathing, if only from the appearance, she seemed to be not breathing.

Zhao Yu pursed his lips and licked his lips with his tongue. It took a long time for him to open his mouth. "You hate the Saurons as much as that old man!"

"Yes, because we all know the danger of the Sauron Empire!" Shen Mengting suddenly looked over.

Zhao Yu only felt that there was a thunderbolt swaying on his body, he trembled his body, and subconsciously lowered his shoulders in the opposite direction to Shen Mengting.

"Actually...... There's a question I've wanted to ask you for a long time. What is your relationship with that old man? Are you relatives? Or is there some special relationship? Zhao Yu's gaze wandered, "I've always felt strange. You are not supposed to be in a group, whether you are old or whatever. Then why did he give me the feeling that your relationship was extraordinary? Even some actions that were about to be born and die, he only told you one person, not the others. Why is that?"

After asking, Zhao Yu was looking forward to the answer. In other words, this question has also been firmly engraved in Zhao Yu's heart since he was in a hurry. He had already thought it was very strange. It is said that Yang Jiening and Shen Mengting, unless the two of them are related, there will be no place for overlapping together.

Yang Jiening is so old, but Shen Mengting is very young - the relationship between lovers is broken without telling him, and it is almost impossible to even be friends.

Yang Jiening is a magic magician, and Shen Mengting is a tough swordsman - that is, the possibility of chatting together through profession is very small, and it will definitely not be a master and apprentice.

However, just when Zhao Yu couldn't figure it out, Shen Mengting's hatred for Sauron just now seemed to have given the answer. Yang Jiening and Shen Mengting have one thing in common: that is, as Saran, they are extremely resistant to the Sauron Empire.

So, is this an opportunity for them to get along?

"I do have an extraordinary relationship with Uncle Yang Jiening. But......" Shen Mengting's expression softened a lot, "It's not what you imagined! My father and he have been good friends since childhood. No, it should also be called brothers. My father once said: 'Yang Jiening is the most reliable brother in his life, there is no one'. You can figure out the meaning of this sentence for yourself! Until my father died, Uncle Yang Jiening took more care of me. He treated me like his own daughter, and that's it. ”

"Oh, so that's the case!" Zhao Yu's body suddenly relaxed a lot.

The friendship between fathers also affects children. Zhao Yu attaches great importance to this. There have been examples of this in their Vortex Town before. The two peasants were so good buddies to each other that their children played together.

"But then again. I also have fatherly respect for Uncle Yang Jiening, and I can even say that I regard him as half a father. His character and integrity to the country make me respect him. Especially his dedication to his country. Speaking of this, Shen Mengting clenched her fists. She seemed to be chanting something, and her whole body was shaking.

When Zhao Yu was about to ask, 'What's wrong with you', he heard what Shen Mengting was talking about.

"Uncle, don't worry. Meng Ting will definitely avenge you. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not going to let those four Saurons hunt you down." Especially that Zhang Zhijie, I will definitely not let this traitor have a good time. ”

Zhao Yu saw his former self in a trance. Shen Mengting's dedication to revenge for Yang Jiening is the same as her revenge for her mother!
