Chapter 56: The Difference Between Magicians

Due to Nasa's injury, Shen Mengting did not ride on horseback. They walked all the way into the woods.

After walking for about a few hours, it was not early. Shen Mengting decided to stop and prepare to leave tomorrow morning. She looked at Nassa's tightly bandaged hind limbs and thought it might take two or three days for the horse to recover.

"Let's spend the night here tonight!" Shen Mengting said, pulling out her sword and chopping a few branches.

Zhao Yu also sat on the ground and leaned against the trunk of a big tree.

The woods are quiet at night, and even their own breathing can be clearly accompanied by their ears.

Zhao Yu tried his best to get as close as possible to the bonfire that was moving, and kept rubbing his hands against it. It seemed to be a little cold tonight, so much so that his body was shivering.

"What's the matter, are you cold?" Shen Mengting asked with concern as she added branches to the bonfire.

Zhao Yu quickly shook his head, he didn't want Shen Mengting to know his fragile side.

"If you feel cold, go near a campfire. I'll light the campfire bigger. Shen Mengting grabbed a branch and added it to the flickering bonfire.

For a time, the bonfire burned to the extreme. While Zhao Yu felt a little warmth, he also saw the suddenly bright surrounding scene.

He wanted to say thank you to Shen Mengting, but he swallowed the words for the sake of face.

After eating some dry food casually, the two of them rested in silence. The silence in the woods continued, as if every breath and every movement could clearly and intuitively tell them what was happening at the moment.

Shen Mengting kept looking at the bonfire, and the flames that flickered made her recall the scene of her previous struggle with Steppenwolf. It was really dangerous just now, maybe he had already died under the wolf's mouth if he was a little worse. She lifted her arm, which was tightly wrapped in rags, and wrapped her clothes tightly.

She occasionally glanced at Zhao Yu, who was resting. Suddenly, a word swirled up in her chest. After thinking about it for a while, she finally slowly moved her mouth.

"By the way, I'll ask again. Haven't you really tried the mage profession?"

Regarding Shen Mengting's cold question, Zhao Yu was a little caught off guard. But after about a few seconds, he grabbed the back of his head with his backhand, and his mouth was still pursed high.

"Why do you still ask this question at this time, do you still think I'm lying to you?"

"I didn't think you were lying to me. But, realistically, if you've never tried a magician. So how do you explain the scene just now?"

"Hungry...... I...... I do not know. Zhao Yu replied vaguely.

Speaking of how he could actually use a magician's move just now, he also felt extremely strange.

How did he release his skills?

Thinking about it, Zhao Yu's eyes gradually became straight. When a Steppenwolf leader was about to pounce on him, he thought he was going to die. However, without thinking about it, he stretched out his palm, and the magic was used.

In other words, Zhao Yu used the magician skill without any defense.

He turned his head to look at the staff in his hand, his expression a little stunned. He couldn't believe what had happened, and he felt that it was a little too unreal.

"Zhao Yu. Do you know?" Shen Mengting was stirring the bonfire with a long branch. As a result, the branches that were buried deep at the bottom were burned more thoroughly. With all the branches completely burning, the bonfire reached its peak point, "Magician is a very difficult and advanced profession to learn. It's not like anyone who says to learn and succeed. Often, when a person is determined to become a magician, it means that he has to work harder than a swordsman or an archer, and that's it. ”

Shen Mengting's words struck Zhao Yu's heart, and he also shrank his neck and licked his lips in embarrassment.

"Yes, I can see what you mean. In fact, I also know that a legal profession like this is often much more difficult to learn than a war profession. How could someone like me, who couldn't even learn how to be a swordsman......, become a magician? I really...... Yes...... I don't know what the hell was going on, the situation was so critical, anyway, I just used the palm of my hand to make a move, and the magic was used. Zhao Yu responded to the action of pushing the palm of his hand.

Shen Mengting didn't look at Zhao Yu again, she directly threw the long branch in her hand into the bonfire. "It is almost impossible for a person to perform magic when he has never been in contact with a magician. A mage is not like a swordsman or an archer, but if you are the latter two classes, you have the strength to swing your sword and shoot a bow and arrow. But magicians don't work at all. It is impossible for civilians to master the requirements of magical skills. ”

"So...... You said so much, don't you still trust me?Do you think I'm lying to you?" Zhao Yu was a little excited, "But don't you want to think about it, why should I lie to you? I hide from you that I used to study magicians, what's the benefit?"

Shen Mengting no longer spoke, but looked directly at the bonfire.

"Besides, even if I want to learn magician, you have to have a corresponding foundation! What is Vortex Town like? You won't be unclear! This broken town only has two professions for cultivation, and those rich people who want to learn more advanced professions will have to send their children to other places. How did I learn to be a magician in Vortex Town? Also, my family itself is not rich, and I can even say poor. My mom used to ......"

As soon as he mentioned the word mother, Zhao Yu suddenly felt extremely sad. However, he still insisted on finishing the words.

"My mother is having some difficulty even giving me a place to live, so how can she come up with spare money to teach me magicians?

Shen Mengting listened calmly, she seemed to be thinking about something, so she was stunned as if she was in deep thought. But after a long time, she still rolled her eyes.

"Zhao Yu, I didn't say I didn't trust you from just now!"

"Huh?"

"When did I say you lied?"

Zhao Yu became a little speechless. He snapped a few intermittent 'uh-huh' moments, as if he had suddenly remembered something. He pointed at Shen Mengting: "You still said, 'You didn't tell me that I lied'? At that time, in the plain, I said that I cut down a big tree, but you didn't believe it at all, and said that I was not a good boy when I lied." Have you forgotten that?"

Shen Mengting suddenly stood up when she heard this, and the momentum was really a little scary.

Zhao Yu hurriedly took precautions and blocked the staff in front of him. But what I didn't expect was that what I was waiting for was Shen Mengting's apology.

"Yes, you're right. I was a little too heavy on what I said earlier. I think of you too much and despise you too much. I'm sorry!" Although Shen Mengting didn't reach the point of bowing, her half-lowered head still made people realize a sense of sincerity.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu stopped talking.

Shen Mengting is indeed regretting. Speaking of the tree cutting incident just now, she made the assertion that Zhao Yu lied without doing anything to confirm it carefully. Now that I think about it, Shen Mengting regrets it.

If you follow what Zhao Yu said, when he tried to cut down the tree, it was blue light and strong current. Shen Mengting highly suspected that Zhao Yu had already used magic at that time, combined with Zhao Yu's magic skills when dealing with Steppenwolf. Therefore, if this kid can cut down a big tree, it doesn't seem to be an accident.

But......

Shen Mengting looked at Zhao Yu tightly for a long time after lifting it up.

Zhao Yu felt a chill down his spine, he slowly stood up and moved back a few steps. "How...... What's wrong?" he twitched the corner of his mouth.

Shen Mengting didn't speak for a long time, and her two dark eyes looked cloudy under the firelight.

Gradually, the light of the fire burst into a halo, and it brought the scene in the woods to its brightest.

"This ...... Is this bonfire burning a little hot?" Zhao Yu pointed towards the bonfire that was about to become a big fire.

But Shen Mengting didn't respond in the slightest, she put her hands behind her back, and her waist began to straighten. Eventually, a question came out of her mouth.

"Zhao Yu! I'll ask you. Do you want to be a real magician?"

"Huh?"

To be honest, Shen Mengting's question was too abrupt. Zhao Yu's lips were trembling, and he was incoherently saying something that he couldn't even understand.

"What...... What the...... Demon...... Enchanter...... This...... This...... Ah...... It seems to be too ......."

"You don't have to panic. Let me ask you, do you want to be a magician?"

Zhao Yu regained his senses a little, "Ahh......h I...... Honestly, I wish I could be. However, a magician is not something I want to be, so I can become!"

"You're right, it's true that a magician is not something you can do if you want to be. However, I think that a person who has not been exposed to a magician can use the relevant skills, although it is the most rudimentary, but it is much better than those who have failed hard training. So, I think you can study on the path to becoming a magician. ”

Zhao Yu was shocked by Shen Mengting's words. From before to now, Zhao Yu never thought that he would be able to touch any legal profession, but at this moment, the opportunity was clearly placed in front of him.

I don't know if it's the mind controlling the brain, or the habitual action, Zhao Yu nodded firmly.

"That's good. I'm going to train you as a magician right now. As she spoke, Shen Mengting put her hand into the mouth of her clothes. She pulled out the magician books from them, "It seems that I thought wrong, and I have been training you on the path of becoming a swordsman." But the lessons of the past have taught me that you are not the material to learn from the swordsman at all. So I think it's okay for you to change careers. Judging by what happened before, it's clear that you should be a magician!"

Shen Mengting handed the books to Zhao Yu's eyes: "You have all these books, and this magic staff will be yours from now on." They all used to belong to Uncle Yang Jiening. Now, I'll leave them all to you. ”

Zhao Yu didn't react for a while, he hurriedly waved his hand: "Ah! This belongs to that old man, you can't just give it to me. ”

"I'll give it to you!" Shen Mengting replied forcefully.

Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he shook his eyes casually, and then he reluctantly put the book away. However, he saw that he was holding a staff in his left and a few magician books in his right hand. Zhao Yu felt ridiculous when he thought about it.

"You just take it! I'm sure Uncle Yang Jiening thinks the same way. ”

"But......" Zhao Yu intermittently stated his true thoughts in his heart after hoping to put his left and right hands on his feet, "I think these things should be given to better people." ”

"Huh?"

"I think it's a staff or a book. Since they are all valuables in the hands of that old man, they can't be handed over to someone like me. You should hand them over to a more gifted and powerful magician, shouldn't you?"

Shen Mengting raised her head and looked at the night sky when she heard this: "You have a point. But I think that if you really want to conform to the wishes of the living Uncle Yang Jiening, then you should hand over his relics to you. Besides, I realized that maybe my uncle was going to give you these things. ”

Shen Mengting's statement is well-founded. She recalled that she was in front of Zhao Yu's house, and when she was about to leave alone, she was stopped by the trembling of the staff. She had thought that Uncle Yang Jiening was admonishing her to take care of the boy who had lost his mother. But now that we look closely, it may be that the staff was choosing its master at that time.

When a weapon has followed its owner for a long time, it will produce a kind of aura. Many of the owner's thoughts will also be implanted into the weapon. Therefore, at that time, the staff must have listened to Uncle Yang Jiening's thoughts and went to find its new owner.

There is a high probability that what the staff is looking for is the boy in front of Shen Mengting-Zhao Yu.

Although Shen Mengting didn't know what the idea of the staff was, she considered that Zhao Yu did use her strength while holding the staff. Then, she believed that Zhao Yu could control this staff.

told Zhao Yu everything in her heart, and Shen Mengting did not hide any information.

Zhao Yu was stunned when he heard this, he looked directly at the staff in his hand, "Is this really the case?"

Shen Mengting took a step forward: "Zhao Yu, you just accept it! You are really lucky, you have obtained good resources that others can't imagine!"

"Huh?

"Do you know? The staff in your hand is a weapon that has followed Uncle Yang Jiening for more than thirty years, and it has supreme energy. If you can unleash its full potential, then you can become a very powerful magician!"

"Really?" Zhao Yu's eyes widened.

"Also, the books in your hands are just as precious. It is almost full of Uncle Yang Jiening's thoughts and thoughts when he was learning the profession of trial magician. If you can follow the notes above, you can do more with less!"

Zhao Yu only felt that his heart had withstood a blow of understanding. But it wasn't the pain, it was the sourness of the excitement.

Do I really have the weapons and notes of a top-notch magician?

"Zhao Yu, if you really have to follow the notes in the book and practice hard. I don't dare to say what expert level you can reach, but you can definitely reach the level of a high-level magician. ”

Shen Mengting made sure remarks, she seemed to be very sure of the help that the staff and books brought to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu's eyes flashed with bright crystals, and he opened his mouth in a low 'ah' voice.

"Don't think I'm saying it casually. As far as Uncle Yang Jiening's background is concerned, if you hold his items, you can say that you have won at the starting line. And not just a few years, I dare say decades. ”

"Count...... Decades?"

"If you had to give a definite number, I think it would be twenty years. In other words, when you have these items from your uncle, you are equivalent to twenty more years of struggle than others. ”

"So I've been a mage for twenty years?"

Shen Mengting couldn't laugh or cry at Zhao Yu's words, and she hurriedly stopped the child's whimsy.

"Hey, don't swell like that just yet! I mean, if you're holding these items and practicing them for a while. You'll be twenty years ahead of anyone your age who is just starting out in the wizarding profession. ”

Zhao Yu nodded cowardly after hearing this. "Oh, I see!"

"So, you still have to work hard. I'm not saying that if you're twenty years ahead of others, you don't have to work hard. Shen Mengting explained.

Zhao Yu waved his hand casually: "Well, I understand." ”

He was currently looking excited, staring intently at the staff and the books. To push the time forward for half a day, he was still worried about becoming a crappy swordsman. And now, he has been indoctrinated with a statement that he is twenty years ahead of others.

Wow! That's really cool! Zhao Yu clenched his staff, enjoying the touch of the staff

If so, does that mean that avenging his mother is no longer a dream?

Shen Mengting frowned beside her, thinking about whether she was talking too much. Zhao Yu's current appearance has begun to flutter. In fact, no matter how fast the weapon in your hand is, how rich the trial resources you get. But it is also inseparable from two words, that is, diligence.

If you don't study and practice hard, no matter how good your talent is, it's useless. Maybe some people are smarter and can achieve very strong strength without much hard training. But the strength is just mediocre, probably only a little higher than ordinary people. For example, to reach the advanced or expert level.

But if you want to climb to the top, to reach the master level or higher, talent and diligence are absolutely indispensable.

Besides, Shen Mengting hasn't seen any talent from Zhao Yu yet. She hurriedly slapped Zhao Yu's chest with her backhand.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing! I'm telling you, you have resources that ordinary people can't reach, but then you have to work hard. Don't be so excited, okay?"

"Not really. I'm just thinking!" Zhao Yu raised the staff in his hand, "If I have this, wouldn't the next revenge be a dream? As you once said, that old man's strength is the top in Celos? If I can reach his level, won't I be able to seek revenge on those Saurons?"

Shen Mengting's face crossed with surprise. It's not just a message of revenge, but this kid is actually so incapable that he wants to reach the level of Uncle Yang Jiening.

Shen Mengting instantly shook her head and looked at Zhao Yu with squinted eyes: "Hey, I said Zhao Yu! Don't you understand how many catties and taels you weigh?"

"What's wrong?"

"You're ...... Actually said......" Shen Mengting shook her body in an instant, this was due to chuckles, "You actually said that you want to reach the level of Uncle Yang Jiening? Let me tell you, you are still far behind!"
