"Forget it, I don't want to say anything else. In fact, I said so much, just to ask you to be sensible. Don't think I'm nagging. I used to know a few children who were reckless and impetuous, and ended up on a crooked path. Anyway, you can pay a little attention. ”

Shen Mengting said a long list of words, and Zhao Yu nodded again and again when she heard it.

"Then so be it!" Shen Mengting quickly clapped her hands in fear, "I don't want to reprimand anything anymore?" she took a few steps in the opposite direction of the stream. "Let's get the food or something now!"

Zhao Yu glanced at Shen Mengting with his eyes, and his body relaxed. He really didn't know why he was spending money so lavishly at that time, as if he was obsessed.

Shen Mengting continued to walk towards the woods, "By the way, I'll go into the woods to do something." You're here to stay. Suddenly, she stopped and turned her head, "Don't run around, don't let me go to you again." ”

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to get some food. Shen Mengting's tone was full of frustration, "We don't even have any food now." If we waste time here, how are we going to survive?

Zhao Yu felt that it was right, and he scratched his head cowardly again: "Oh, then I'm bothering you." ”

"Don't bother, that's as it should be. I'm hungry too. After that, Shen Mengting was overdone. But at the moment when she was about to take a step, she still turned her head to Zhao Yu and solemnly reminded, "Don't run around." Stay where you are, no matter what, so I can find you, you know?"

This time, Zhao Yu's nod was firm.

Shen Mengting didn't say anything more when she saw this, she plunged into the unfathomable woods. Until her figure disappeared completely, Zhao Yu's gaze did not turn to other places.

"You're leaving!" Zhao Yu moved his lips at the woods.

Shen Mengting disappeared like this, and it was the kind without warning. Although Zhao Yu knew that it was necessary, Shen Mengting must get some food. However, after this woman left, Zhao Yu still felt somewhat panicked.

Zhao Yu wandered around, and he found that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. Except for a few whispers from Nasa, there was no more sound.

Zhao Yu walked to the edge of the stream, looked at the stream that was as calm as the water, and Zhao Yu squatted down. Then wait!Zhao Yu put down the staff in his hand, and his palms supported his cheeks like petals.

I don't know how long I've been waiting, and I don't know how many memories of the past are flowing through my mind. In short, Shen Mengting hasn't been back for a long time.

Zhao Yu got up and walked a few steps by the stream, he was surprised what was going on? At this moment, he exclaimed a question. That is, since escaping from Vortex Town, he has never been alone in the wild. Moreover, when there was any danger in the wild before, Shen Mengting would always jump out to help as soon as possible.

But now! Zhao Yu lingered restlessly on the shore for a long time. If Nasa wasn't still here, Zhao Yu would probably think that Shen Mengting had abandoned him and chose to leave?

At this time, Zhao Yu also understood the meaning of the word 'cherish'. It turned out that Shen Mengting was so important to him.

Zhao Yu wanted to go to the woods to find out, but every time he thought that Shen Mengting wanted him to stay here honestly, Zhao Yu no longer dared to act rashly.

Zhao Yu's pace was accelerating, but he never took a step away from here. The waiting time is getting longer and longer, and Zhao Yu's heart is becoming more and more uneasy.

What should I do? Zhao Yu stopped and looked up at the sky.

The clouds in the sky wandered in the air in patches, and they swept one place after another, floating towards the sky under Zhao Yu's gaze.

Don't......

Zhao Yu had a memory in his heart, he thought that Shen Mengting would not encounter any danger, right?

If this is the case, then Zhao Yu will have to go to the woods to find Shen Mengting. Just as Zhao Yu hesitated, Nasa walked towards him. This white horse seemed to be very spiritual, and it also stretched out its head as if to comfort Zhao Yu.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu touched Nasa's head a few times: "Nasa, where is your master?" she said that she went to the woods to find something to eat, but how much time has passed?"

Zhao Yu really didn't know how much time it was, but from the sun that was originally in the east of the sky, but now it was in the westerly position, he guessed that at least two or three hours would have passed.

Nasa roared in a low voice, and from the white horse's eyes, Zhao Yu came to the meaning of trusting its master.

"Really?" Zhao Yu pursed his lips and smiled. He decided to continue waiting, Shen Mengting would definitely come back, this woman was omnipotent and would solve any danger that stood in his way.

Patting Nasa on the back, Zhao Yu took a few steps towards the woods. He looked deeply at the forest, expecting Shen Mengting to come out of it.

However, after waiting for a while, Zhao Yu realized a problem again. He can wait uncontrollably here now, and at the same time, he also believes that Shen Mengting will not encounter any changes, and she will definitely return safely. But there was one thing that Zhao Yu overlooked, and that was his own safety.

Now that Shen Mengting has left, Zhao Yu lacks the strongest protective shield. If he is in danger here at this moment, how can he deal with it on his own?

The scene in the tavern in Akita Town was still vivid, and Zhao Yu was also saved by the help of others that time. But here he will not get help from anyone. In other words, if he encounters danger, he must rely on himself to get through it.

Zhao Yu held the staff and came to the tree. If you want to get out of danger, you must first make yourself strong. Zhao Yu stared at the trunk of the big tree tightly. And if you want to make yourself strong, you have to display amazing magical energy. When he stopped looking at the trunk, he turned his head to look at the staff that was held in his hand.

If it had been before, he had never thought he would become a magician. Or maybe he doesn't even have the idea of wanting to be, but fate is such a trick. The weapon he currently holds is a staff, not a sword.

It's just that how can he get ahead by relying on the profession of magician? Don't forget, he also has a blood feud. He knew that one day, he would go to the Sauron Empire and settle accounts with the Sauronians who had killed his mother.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu felt a trace of indignation in his heart. He gripped his staff harder, his whole body moving towards a taut pattern. When he could feel the strength, he slowly raised his right hand again.

A ball of light was generated at the tip of his right hand, and it was emitting a blinding blue light, and the light flashed on his cheek, causing his face to be bright and dark.

Let's just think this big tree is a Sauron!" Zhao Yu's eyes gradually widened.

The power seemed to have reached a blowout state, but he gritted his teeth and tried his best to control it, not easily sending out mana bullets. Because he knew that as the power hoarding increased, the energy he could eventually release could also reach the maximum point.

So, he resisted not making any release movements. The power was moving from his body to his right arm. He could clearly see the muscles on the back of his right hand bulging. At the same time, there were small threads like worms, which swam through the veins on the back of his hand and quickly rushed into the light ball at the front of his right hand that was glowing with blue light.

Well, that's good! He poured these words into his heart. The ball of light at the front of his right hand began to expand rapidly, and the aura it brought had already made Zhao Yu's hands tremble to the point of trembling.

Zhao Yu was still controlling the energy, although he could no longer command his right hand to be still.

At this time, there was also a series of reactions throughout his body. The mana aura that had been around him was strengthening, and the speed of his wandering was also speeding up uncontrollably.

Coming soon...... It's almost ...... I can't control it...... Zhao Yu tried his best to stabilize his body.

However, not to mention him, even the environment around him is changing dramatically. The breath he brought out spread to the outside world, and soon formed a hurricane. For a time, the wind was raging by the side of the stream.

Yes...... He was almost out of control.

Maybe Zhao Yu still doesn't know, his whole person is deteriorating. His face was covered with a large number of bruises, like black worms crawling. His eyes were also obscured by electromagnetic locks, making it impossible to see even black eyes.

The aura he burst out was getting more and more, but he still greedily didn't want to release it, and he continued to hoard energy.

When Nasa saw this, she felt a strong sense of unease. The white horse ran back and forth in front of Zhao Yu, as if reminding him not to go too far.

But at this moment, Zhao Yu has lost consciousness, and he should have lost his judgment. The power has long passed the tipping point, and he has lost his control.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that the situation was almost beyond his control. His eyes widened as he was obscured by electromagnetic light, and he immediately wanted to release his mana. However, no matter how much he was now pushing his hand forward to the front, it would be of no avail.

What's wrong? Zhao Yu kept asking himself this question.

Suddenly, he felt a collapse in his brain, as if he didn't even have the slightest thoughts. A large white mist halted his imagination completely, prompting him to scream 'ah'.

In the next moment, he felt that it was dark in front of him. His legs also suddenly went limp, causing him to fall to the ground. It seemed to be quiet, and when he could open his eyes again, he saw a surprisingly quiet scene.

What's wrong?, he asked himself again, blankly.

The feeling of prostration from the overuse of mana spread throughout his body, and he gasped violently.

Finally...... What the hell is going on? Zhao Yu looked anxiously around again.

Nassa seemed to be looking at him with concern, her tongue still sticking out.

Zhao Yu wanted to comfort him a little, but his body was a little disobedient. He couldn't stretch out his arm, and the other hand holding the staff had long since loosened. Seeing the staff fall to the ground, Zhao Yu's heart felt a little indescribable.

What the hell was going on? He knelt on the ground for a long time.

"I've made it clear. ”

Suddenly, a female voice came from the left. Zhao Yu turned his head violently and saw Shen Mengting standing on his left.

Shen Mengting's eyes were extremely empty, and there was also a sense of disappointment from them. "Don't be impatient in anything, but why don't you listen?"

"You...... You ......" Zhao Yu wanted to stand up, but as soon as he lifted a kick, he knelt down weightlessly.

"Do you know how dangerous your move just now was?"

was told by Shen Mengting like this, Zhao Yu gasped. His memory was a little blurry, but he knew everything he had done.

"You actually want to test the power of your whole body to increase the mana you release. I'm telling you, this is going to cripple your body. ”

Zhao Yu's eyes increased suddenly, and they were almost like wooden fish eyes.

Shen Mengting took a few steps in front of Zhao Yu: "Don't do this again in the future, do you hear?"

When Shen Mengting walked in front of Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu shrunk his neck cowardly, "Oh!"

"If you can't be in a hurry to learn magic, you are killing yourself by hoarding magic to increase your energy. ”

"Yes...... Really?"

"Yes. Shen Mengting squinted her eyes, "Your body can't reach the capacity of so many mana points at all, and you don't release it quickly." Then, a complete loss of control of energy in your body is inevitable. ”

Zhao Yu lowered his head, and he looked at his hands. Indeed, he couldn't control the aura that had been fully assembled but hadn't been emitted for a long time.

"Looks like you've felt it, too. Shen Mengting's head was raised high, "The strength of a magician is no longer in how much mana can be emitted, but in how much mana can be hoarded. Of course, it is also important to be able to burst out of breath at the first time. However, if a person has a very shallow foundation, but insists on hoarding mana in his body, so as to blindly increase the mana energy released, then he is dreaming. ”

Zhao Yu's hands drooped down: "Yes...... I'm sorry!"

"I've told you a long time ago, don't be too impetuous, and try to do everything within the acceptable range of your body. But......" Shen Mengting sighed, "Your actions just now are really too dangerous, but fortunately, there is Uncle Yang's Frost Source Staff, which resists and absorbs energy for you." Otherwise, you will be crippled for life. ”

What? Zhao Yu looked at the staff that had saved him just now. Does that really have to be the case? His eyes flashed with incomprehension.

Shen Mengting also saw Zhao Yu's thoughts, and she added: "Why does a magician want a good staff, it's because of this." I once told you that you hold Uncle Yang Jiening, the top three magician staff in all of Celes. You're starting a lot higher than many people. No, the scene just now is very illustrative of my point. When you mistakenly hoard mana, it's the Frost Staff that keeps correcting you. And just when the mana was about to collapse and was about to hurt your body, it was also the Frost Source Staff that quickly absorbed this evil power. So ......"

Shen Mengting paused deliberately, as if she was waiting for Zhao Yu's reaction. Seeing Zhao Yu's look of curiosity, she continued, "So the mana was originally going to tear your body apart, but because of the forcible interference of the Frost Source Staff, you just fell down weakly. ”

"What...... Did you see everything just now?"

"Well, but it's too late for me to come, otherwise I wouldn't have watched you gather your gas. To be honest, I was so worried just now, I thought you were going to die. But it was the Frost Source Staff that saved your life, draining all the mana you released, which is absolutely impossible for an ordinary staff. ”

"This ...... This ......" Zhao Yu looked at the staff called the Frost Source Staff again. A breath of air was inhaled by him, and he immediately picked up the staff. Holding the staff in his hand, his eyes lit up as if he had found a treasure.

"This time it can be regarded as a real lesson for you, and it also makes you a kid with a heart, so that he can remember my words completely. Shen Mengting gradually bent down, her resolute face was also thinking about Zhao Yu approaching, "I told you, don't be impatient in everything." This is the most important thing, no matter what it is, including learning to be a magician!"

Zhao Yu watched Shen Mengting's mouth move, and his heart also fluctuated. "I'm sorry! I didn't listen to you. I'll pay attention next time. ”

"It's good that you know. But!" Shen Mengting raised her waist, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Many newbies will face the confusion of yours and want to rush too much. This is not only a mage, but also other professions such as swordsmen and archers. It's okay to pay attention to it later. ”

Zhao Yu could already feel the strength in his legs at this time, which also meant that he could stand up. He slowly moved his legs and slowly stood up.

"Well, don't think about it anymore. Now let's think about how to fill your stomach!" As she spoke, Shen Mengting picked up her hand.

Only then did Zhao Yu realize that she was carrying a hare in her hand. The pheasant was motionless in Shen Mengting's hand, which was also the main reason why Zhao Yu failed to find it just now. It seems that the hare has been dead for a long time.

"This is what I caught in the woods, and it's enough for us to have a good meal. Shen Mengting's face began to smile.

This woman rarely laughs, but she is so kind when she laughs. The smile couldn't help but compromise the hardness on her face, and it also narrowed the distance between them.

"Oh, but I still want to thank Miss Shen Mengting for reminding me so much every time. ”

"Didn't you say don't mention it again? Zhao Yu, everyone will make mistakes like yours. So don't blame yourself too much, but you must remember this in the future. Come, tell me again, what have I taught you?"

Zhao Yu was 'hungry' and responded to the remarks that had penetrated into his bone marrow, "You can't rush everything, and try to do things within the acceptable range of your body." ”

Shen Mengting seemed very satisfied, she pursed her mouth and nodded. Of course, the reason why she didn't blame Zhao Yu too much was mainly because she had made this kind of mistake before.

Once, in order to learn something in the swordsman, she was also in a hurry to blindly hoard the internal system, wanting to send out more violent high-level swordsman skills, but she didn't expect it to be self-defeating. The mistake caused her to lie in bed for three months, for which her father, Shen Haiteng, and Uncle Yang Jiening both fiercely criticized her.

Therefore, she can still understand Zhao Yu's mood to some extent.
