Chapter 15: Mercenary Squad
Wang Zhong's family stayed at Planck's house for two days and then went back, Planck wanted to keep everyone to visit the annual festival - the Flower Festival, but Wang Yilan politely refused on the grounds that there was no one to take care of the plants at home, and the two brothers also made an appointment to wait until next year to deal with all the trivial matters and then come to this wood spirit city to participate in the flower festival.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye, in the woods by the river in Huayuan Village, Wang Zhong is sitting cross-legged, surrounded by dense milky white points of light, the rich light magic power is frantically absorbed, the noon sun shines directly on Wang Zhong, and the whole body exudes a divine aura.
"Calm down, use your mind to control the absorption rate of magic power, keep it at a steady rate, and at the same time mobilize a trace of spiritual power to stabilize the sea of qi, don't be impatient. Long Seventeen, who was dressed in a black power suit, also appeared beside Wang Zhong at this time, his cold eyes staring at Wang Zhong tightly, and at the same time projecting a powerful spiritual power to feel the changes of this Wang Zhong at all times, yes, Wang Zhong was trying to impact the first-order magician.
In the past two months, Wang Zhong spent two hours every morning absorbing magic power, and the rest of the morning still followed the captain of the guard Xu He to exercise, read books for three hours after lunch, studied geography, religion, etiquette, and plant cultivation, and then meditated and cultivated spiritual power. There is not a day that is not like this, only six hours of sleep a day, but don't think that these six hours are enough, meditation is very tiring, but this also causes the kings to sleep deeply every day.
Everything was seen by Long Seventeen, even with his vision, he also recognized Wang Zhong's cultivation speed, just three days ago, when Wang Zhong told Long Seventeen that he seemed to have reached a saturated stage of absorbing magic power, Long Seventeen was also a little surprised after carefully sensing it, Wang Zhong actually already had ten levels of magic power, and it was time to break through. So after a simple preparation, I chose today, the location was chosen in the riverside woods where Wang Zhong often came to swim, there are two reasons, one is that no one walks around in this woods is quiet, and when you break through, you are most afraid of being disturbed, and Long Seventeen also exudes spiritual power to sense the changes around him at all times;
Wang Zhong's eyes were closed, every word of Long Seventeen's generous and powerful words was deeply engraved in Wang Zhong's mind, listening to his words, Wang Zhong seemed to really concentrate more, slowly mobilizing his spiritual power in the sea of spirits, not feeling any sound from the outside world, as if they were all isolated, what Wang Zhong didn't know was that this was indeed done by Long Seventeen.
Wang Zhong, who had his eyes closed, obviously couldn't see the changes around his body, but under his control, his spiritual power gradually formed a whirlpool, frantically devouring the surrounding heaven and earth elements, and Wang Zhong also clearly felt that there seemed to be countless milky white small light spots around him, which were absorbed and refined by himself little by little.
The spiritual power also slowly spread with Wang Zhong's control, sensing that the milky white small light spots were gradually absorbed and refined by themselves, and even the surrounding magic power fluctuations weakened a little, and suddenly, a layer of pale golden light appeared around Wang Zhong's body, Wang Zhong couldn't see the changes in the outside world at all, but he enjoyed this feeling very much- The wonderful feeling of the magic power melting into the body, the whirlpool of the sea of qi was actually gradually shrinking, and finally, it completely stopped, Wang Zhong was completely immersed in this feeling, he obviously felt that although the amount of magic power in his body had not increased much, the countless gaseous magic power had begun to condense into a small ocean, this was a qualitative change, and there was also a feeling that his spiritual power seemed to be able to better control this liquid ocean.
Wang Zhong slowly opened his eyes, carefully examined his body, and grinned at Long Seventeen on the side, "Senior Dragon, I have broken through, I have become a first-order magician!"
"Hmph, the higher the magic power is, the more difficult it is to cultivate, there is still a long way to go, don't forget, I will teach you when your body reaches the first-order warrior level, you are now at most the second-order warrior standard, it is still far behind." Long Seventeen coldly glanced around Wang Zhong and checked that he had indeed broken through and that there was nothing abnormal in his body, and then he turned into a black light and returned to the silver ring.
Wang Zhong shook his head slightly, in fact, he was also very distressed, these two months of hell training barely reached the standard of a second-level warrior, in fact, this speed is not slow, because the process of absorbing the transformation of heaven and earth elements will also imperceptibly improve Wang Zhong's body, making his cultivation of warriors much faster than ordinary people, but compared with the speed of cultivating magic, it is a world of difference.
Back at home, Wang Zhong found two guests in the house, one was Planck in a cyan mage robe, and the other was a burly man with a middle-aged appearance.
"Wang Zhong, this is the leader of the mercenary team, the hammer team, Huck, is a second-order warrior. Wang Yilan hurriedly introduced.
"Brother Yilan, this is Ling Gongzi, the future magician, just call me Uncle Huck, hahaha. Huck, who is nearly two meters tall, laughed a little strangely.
"Uncle Huck. Wang Zhong said hello respectfully and looked at his father Wang Yilan with some doubts, Wang Zhong knew that the mercenary squad, which is generally composed of several warriors, cavalry and archers, is responsible for receiving some escorts, escorts, exploration, investigations, etc., so as to obtain the commission of the client.
"Let me explain. Planck on the side slowly explained, "Brother Huck helped me escort a batch of goods to the Holy Capital of Light, and I simply asked him to bring you with me by the way, which is convenient and safe." ”
"Wang Zhong, it will take more than ten days to go back and forth from here to the Bright Holy Capital, and this is the best way right now. Wang Yilan also spoke.
Wang Zhong nodded slightly, obviously neither his father nor Uncle Planck would accompany him to school this time, and now it is June 1st, Sonny Academy requires the enrollment procedures before June 6th, and following the mercenary team is the safest and most convenient way.
After lunch, mother Qianyue and aunt Xiaoyuan helped pack up the ceremony, and the family said goodbye at the door.
"Father, mother, aunt, then I'll go, you don't have to worry. ”
"Son, be careful, remember to write when you have time. Mother Qianyue's face couldn't help but have a few teardrops, and Aunt Xiaoyuan, who was holding Wang Wanning, hurriedly comforted, "Sister-in-law, Wang Zhong went to school, and then came back to be a magician, you have to be happy." ”
"Magician, is it just a change, it's all fire?" asked Wang Wanning with a pair of big eyes blinking, not to mention how cute it was.
Everyone laughed, and even Wang Yilan hung Wang Wanning's little nose with her hand, and said jokingly, "Wanning, that's a trick, the magician is a very powerful existence." ”
"Then I'm going to be a magician in the future, like my brother. Wang Wanning pursed her lips, causing everyone to laugh again.
Wang Zai glanced at his father, said nothing, smiled confidently, and left with Huck and Planck.
Wang Yilan looked at the back of her son's departure, there were some tears in the corners of her eyes, there was no need for too many words between father and son, a promise, and a smile were enough.
In the afternoon, Wang Zhong followed Planck and Huck to Muling City, Planck and Huck had already signed a mission, this trip was to pick up Wang Zhong, so they didn't go to the mercenary union again, found the other members of the hammer team who were responsible for guarding the goods on the edge of the city, and prepared to leave.
"Brother Huck, my nephew will ask you, he must be small on the road. Planck solemnly commissioned.
"Don't worry, Brother Planck, my Hammer Squad has been established for eight years, and everything is based on stability. Huck patted his chest and reassured.
Planck nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at the Wang Zhong on the side, and instructed: "Xiaoxiao on the road, go to Sunny Academy as soon as possible when you arrive in the Holy Capital of Light, you have to work hard to cultivate, don't worry about your family's affairs, I will help if you have difficulties." By the way, I'll have them pack up and come out, and you'll get in the middle carriage later. With that, his right hand pointed to the middle of the line, and the carriage was significantly smaller than the other two carriages.
The king respectfully saluted Planck, solemnly thanked him, and then jumped into the carriage, which was quite spacious, with all kinds of food and drink, and the seats were wide and heavily cushioned, which was much more comfortable to sit on than on horseback.
"Let's go, let's go!" Huck ordered, and the young mercenaries who were chatting stopped one after another, jumped on their horses one after another, and began to hurry with serious expressions.
Wang Zhong leaned on the soft cushion of the chair, and couldn't help but show a little moved, obviously everything Planck did for him was seen by him, and he secretly swore in his heart that he must work hard to cultivate in the future, so he picked up the book that Planck had given him before to record the magic spells of various departments, and read it carefully.
