Chapter 2 Strength
After eating, Andrew played with his sister Ling'er for a while. He liked his sister very much, and even the name was obtained by him. Howard, as usual, went out early. He is the head of the family and must earn money to support his family. After Janice finished her chores, she began to make some magic paraphernalia, such as flame guns, sparks, lighting, and so on. In this small town called Maple Grove Town, these things can also be exchanged for a lot of household supplies.
After lulling Ling'er to sleep, Andrew found Janice. Janice loved this mature and well-behaved son very much, put down what she was holding, looked at him and asked, "Andrew, is there something wrong?" ”
Andrew said solemnly, "Mom, I want to learn magic. ”
Janice listened, thought for a moment and said, "Learning magic is harder than training as a warrior, you are still young, wait until you are a year or two old to learn it, okay?" ”
Andrew smiled bitterly to himself, Janice was very motherly, especially to him, she had always doted on him, and she couldn't see him suffer. However, in this world, strength determines everything, and if you don't suffer now, you will suffer in the future.
"Mom, I'm already sensible, and besides, I'm not afraid of hard work, I like magic, so you can teach me." Andrew pleaded.
Janice had no choice but to say, "Okay, but it takes talent to learn magic, and besides, I can only use fire magic." Now, put your fire-based magic talent to the test. You sit down, focus, and get into meditation to feel the air around you. ”
Janice then waved her hands and summoned the surrounding fire elementals around Andrew, so that he could better feel the magic elements.
Andrew meditated according to what Janice said, and soon, he entered a state, similar to the last time he cultivated the Qi Accumulation Style. Soon, Andrew seemed to see countless red points of light gathering around him, and in addition to that, there seemed to be some small lightning bolts shuttling through them. Familiar with the coiling dragon, he quickly understood that these were the elements in the air.
In addition to being happy, Andrew began to slowly manipulate these elements, so that they attached themselves to him, and the red light points were okay, and they could be pulled by him, and those tiny lightning bolts did not obey him at all. At this time, Janice's whisper came from his ear: "Andrew, do you feel it?" ”
Andrew also whispered: "Well, Mom, I feel it, countless red points of light surround me, and in the middle, there are some small lightning bolts. ”
Next to her, Janice was also very happy to hear it, the red point of light was the fire element, and the lightning, needless to say, was the lightning element.
"Okay, Andrew, wake up, mom is happy, you have the talent to practice fire magic, and you have the talent to practice thunder magic. Moreover, if you are able to feel the elements in this environment, it means that your mental power is not low, and there is no problem in learning magic. It's a pity that I can't teach you lightning magic. Janice guided Andrew to wake up from meditation with both joy and regret. According to Andrew's feelings, his talent in cultivating fire and thunder magic is not low, and this kind of qualification can also be very preferential when sent to the magic academy, but unfortunately, they don't have the financial resources.
Andrew was very smart, and he could see what she was thinking from Janice's expression, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Mom, I'm still young, and I'm going to train as a warrior again, so it's great to learn a kind of magic." ”
Janice thought about it too, and her mood improved. She put down the magic paraphernalia next to her and retrieved a book from the box beside her bed. Looking at this book, Janice fell into memories, her eyes were very complicated, and she didn't speak for a long time. Andrew stood to the side with great interest and did not disturb her.
After a while, Janice came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Andrew: "This book was passed on to me by my teacher back then, and it records fire magic from level one to level six, from the simplest fireball technique to level six magic flame serpents. My magical talent is not high, I can only cultivate to level five, originally I thought that I would never use it again in the future, but I did not expect that one day I would use it to teach my son. ”
Andrew saw that the book seemed to have a special meaning for Janice, but he didn't ask much about who didn't have a sad past.
After that, Janice began to teach Andrew fire magic.
Andrew, who is familiar with the coiling dragon, knows very well that the essence of magic is a manifestation of the law, and in order to collect faith, the main god has compiled the laws of various systems into magic spells and transmitted them to countless planes, so these spells are only a means, not an end. Here, if you want to become a strong person, the most important thing is to comprehend the law.
Conversely, magic spells come through the laws, and they are the means to comprehend the laws. If you can fully comprehend a series of magic spells, you will be able to touch the laws behind the spells, and then touch the edge of becoming a god.
The latter is the legendary Sanctuary!
Although these are of little use to Andrew in the short term, they are of great value in the long run. The reason why many powerhouses in the Holy Domain, even at the limit of the Holy Domain, cannot take the step of becoming gods is because they don't understand this truth. And Andrew has paid attention to these from the beginning of his cultivation and worked hard to comprehend the law, and he will inevitably take many detours in the future.
Time passed quickly, and Andrew was at home earnestly learning the theory of magic with Janice. It turns out that Janice may not have a lot of talent in cultivation, but she is very suitable to be a teacher. Through her in-depth explanations, Andrew's understanding of magic has also changed a lot.
"Okay, Andrew, that's all for today, you have learned the meditation technique, in the future, you have to meditate often, absorb the fire element, and improve your mental power. I'll give you this magic book, I hope you can learn it soon, and feel free to ask me any questions. ”
In half a day, Janice found that her son was smarter and more mature than she had imagined. It took him two or three months to learn these things back then, but he was able to absorb them in half a day, which was no less than a legendary magic genius. In this regard, she can only be happy in her heart, and what mother does not want her child to become a talent?
Andrew excitedly took the magic book and swore an oath: "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to cultivate and become a real magician as soon as possible." ”
Janice thought for a while, and then advised: "You have to learn magic, and don't fall behind in the cultivation of warriors, otherwise, your father will be unhappy." ”
Andrew nodded without hesitation, he originally planned to cultivate both magic and martial arts, and this was naturally not a problem. At this time, Ling'er's voice came from the bedroom, and apparently, she had woken up.
"Brother, brother, where are you?" Ling'er shouted with a cry.
When Janice heard this, she smiled helplessly: "I, a mother, am not as good as you, my brother, go and see Ling'er." ”
Andrew smiled, put away the spellbook, and turned to leave.
……
Spring goes to autumn, and in a blink of an eye, three years have passed.
Outside Maple Grove Town, near the stream to the east, a young man dressed in black was wielding a long knife, slashing again and again. In front of him, a cyan boulder the size of a millstone was almost chopped up, and the stones were scattered all over the ground. In the center of the gravel, a human-shaped stone sculpture gradually appeared, and it was a chubby little girl.
"Brother, it's time to go home for dinner!"
The boy swung the last sword, and the stone carving was completed. At this time, a five-year-old girl ran not far away, with pigtails and bangs, which was very cute.
The boy was Andrew, who was now eight years old. However, his height is far beyond his peers, about the same as eleven or twelve years old. Putting away the long knife, Andrew placed Ling'er on his shoulder and handed her the stone carving.
Ling'er took the stone carving, and deliberately pouted: "Brother, how can I be so fat?" ”
Andrew laughed, "This is what you looked like when you were three years old, and back then, you were so chubby, like a piglet. ”
Ling'er was unhappy: "My brother is lying, I'm not a pig." ”
The brother and sister said a word to you, a word to her, and soon returned home.
In three years, the courtyard has not changed at all, Howard is still burly, and Janice is still beautiful.
At the dinner table, Howard suddenly asked, "Andrew, how is your strength now?" ”
Andrew was stunned for a moment and said, "Did Dad ask a warrior or a magician?" ”
"Strength is strength, what kind of warrior and magician!"
Andrew understood, and said, "Now I already have the strength of a fourth-level warrior, and I can also cast third-level magic in terms of magic." ”
Hearing his words, Howard and Janice looked at each other in surprise. Neither of them expected that in just three years without guidance, Andrew's strength would have made such progress. Thinking of this, the two of them felt a little bitter in their hearts, and there was no doubt that Andrew's talent was extremely outstanding. Such a talent, if it was among the nobles, would definitely be cultivated, but the two of them could not give him any help.
The change in the atmosphere at the dinner table can be felt even by Ling'er.
Andrew understood what his parents were thinking, and said in a chic manner: "You don't have to worry about me, I have my own views on cultivation. Now it seems that in this small place, I am not well trained. However, I felt that this was a better place for me. Only here can I cultivate wholeheartedly without being influenced by the outside world. Look, isn't it working very well? ”
Perhaps his words worked, and Howard and Janice were no longer entangled, and then Howard said another thing.
