Chapter 57: Perception
Chongyang heeded the fire demon's warning, and for the time being, he didn't care about the affairs of the Sphinx adventure group, and chose a path that had nothing to do with it from the fork in the route.
Hurry, encounter monsters, fight and kill, camp and rest...... I also experienced several thrilling scenes, and once I was even inexplicably entangled by a kind of red bee that contains highly poisonous, each of which is the size of a thumb, and it is densely chased all over the world!
Chongyang used the "Atmospheric Explosion Technique" to snipe and run frantically for his life, but this Chifeng, who didn't know the name, had a ridiculously high resistance to flames, and six or seven Atmospheric Explosion Techniques would kill a hundred or so at most. In the end, Chongyang had to use the "Burst Punch" continuously and use the terrain to escape the predicament.
If they catch up, even high-level mages will have to finish playing.
Chongyang couldn't help but sigh, it was really thanks to some ordinary adventurers who were at the basic level, not even magicians, who were bold enough to dare to explore this extremely dangerous secret realm.
Three days later, at noon.
Exhausted, Chongyang finally walked to the edge of the outer area. In front of you, there is a very high cliff, and there is an underground river flowing quietly at the bottom of the cliff. On the other side of the cliff, there is another wooded forest, and beyond the forest is the towering Phoenix Peak.
Looking up at the mist-shrouded Phoenix Mountain, Chongyang couldn't help but feel a tiny ethereal feeling of human beings.
"To get into the core, you have to go over this cliff. In my words, the 'Void Blaster' using the 'Elemental Armament' should do. ”
Flying Chongyang in a short period of time is confident, otherwise he would not have chosen this Jedi route.
Elsewhere, there are routes to the core without crossing cliffs at the edge of the outer districts, but the nearby monsters are entrenched, and it is too dangerous to serve as a temporary camp.
Chongyang tried to call the fire demon, but there was no response, he should have already set off for the depths. So, he carefully selected a place near the cliff, set up a tent, set up a simple trap around it to warn the demonic beasts, and silently waited for the return of the fire demon.
Meditation and cultivation are daily lessons. Chongyang went to the mountain and went to the space ring, where enough food and water were stored, and even if he didn't go hunting, he could last for a long time. And because the chosen place is good, there are no monster attacks for several days in a row, and the days are even a little boring.
Sit and watch the sunrise and sunset, and experience the nature of heaven and earth. This harmonious and quiet life reminds Chongyang of the six years he spent in the college. Aside from some unpleasant memories, six years of life are actually very similar to the present.
Lonely and quiet.
For most of the past few days, in addition to meditation and cultivation, what Chongyang pondered the most was the previous battle with the mages of the three realms. Strictly speaking, the initiation of that war was a bit impulsive, and it smacked of "a man should kill when he was angry". While using the strongest strength to fight freely, he also formed a life-and-death grudge with the Western Ayutthaya School.
Chongyang doesn't regret what he has done, even if he does it again, he will still choose the same. At first glance, it doesn't seem to fit his calm and calm personality, but the loss of emotional control after using the elemental armament proves that he is actually an existence with a rather contradictory temperament.
On the one hand, he tries to keep a low profile, but on the other hand, he will show an arrogant factor that seems to come from his bones......! Until now, he has three realm-level mages in one go, all of which really show that he is not very honest.
Stubborn, arrogant, and unrepentant. This was Cranred's comment, and even the wise old man had to sigh that he had looked away at Chongyang, and he had never discovered his hidden nature.
Fire Mage.
If Chongyang is really a completely calm person, why is he the most suitable for the fire system? When it comes to fire, isn't it passion, impulsiveness, and arrogance that comes to mind?
But Chongyang can't be said to be completely impulsive, and when he challenged Freya, he thought of negotiating with Elder Richard. As he threw the scroll at Sarson, he thought that the acting dean was nothing more than a puppet. And fighting with the mages of the three realms is to have a hole card that can absolutely protect itself.
As for the Sphink School behind the other party, he even offended the First Magic Academy of the Empire, and did he care about one or two more elementary school factions in remote and wild cities?
Calm and calm, but also arrogant.
This is Chongyang.
......
That's who I am.
While facing the lonely world alone, Chongyang deeply looked back on everything that had happened during this time, from the battle of the mages of the three realms to the original time.
"Because you have the talent to become the strongest mage in the continent. ”
Firedemon said.
Strongest!
I want to see the most gorgeous magic in the world, I want to see the scenery beyond the continent, I want to have my own legendary world.
Chongyang has a long-term understanding.
I am used to a calm and low-key life, but I am also yearning for the glory of the top of the mainland!
The Flame Demon has long seen through this.
So he bewitched me, seduced me, helped me, and led me to where I am now.
I'm going to go further. It's his wish, and it's my own.
In the land of heaven and earth, the young mage who has had an epiphany about life, the magic of meditation soars by leaps and bounds, and it is extremely smooth through the old and new elemental channels, accumulating, condensing, and compressing in the magic pot...... It reached some kind of limit, and then it began to spin little by little, slowly.
......
Seven days later.
Chongyang sat in the tent. Outside, it's pouring rain. The rain poured down the edge of the tent, and the rain on the ground was kept out by the baffles carefully set up by Chongyang.
Click.
There was a slight thud. Chongyang raised his eyebrows, his eyes opened, his eyes were sharp, and he grabbed the staff placed beside him.
The Monster Trap Mechanism has been touched.
In other words, something took advantage of the heavy rain and approached this side.
Oops, heavy rain, the power of fire magic will be minimized.
However, most of the demonic beasts in Phoenix Mountain were fire-type demonic beasts, and the heavy rain environment was also unfavorable for them.
Chongyang thought about it and felt that this situation was a bit weird. Then a moment later, there was a thud that seemed to have fallen somewhere.
“...... Fell in?"
Chongyang was puzzled. He's an amateur when it comes to risk-taking, so it's natural that he's not very good at setting traps. After seeing the spiritual intelligence of the demonic beasts of Phoenix Mountain, he himself felt that the pit traps he had set up were too rough, and the probability of the demonic beasts falling into them was almost equal to zero. It's just a show, adding a little trouble.
However, now there are really demonic beasts that have fallen in! Chongyang felt strange.
Holding an umbrella and keeping on guard, Chongyang went out of the tent and followed the source of the sound to find the trap.
Chongyang stared down for a long time, looking at the curled up ball of hairy towering objects, and finally tilted his head slightly.
"Cats?"
......
When the little thing woke up, he felt pain all over his body, especially his right hind leg, which was almost bitten off, and he was about to lose consciousness.
It blinked its blurred eyes, and then realized that although its body was in pain, the place it was in was warm and comfortable, as if it were in its mother's fur.
However, my mother is dead. It saw with its own eyes that its mother was bitten to death by a ferocious monster with a huge mouth. So, what is this hairy, warm, stuff that wraps itself around itself like a mother's orange-yellow fur?
In the blink of an eye, it shook its small body and whined in pain, but it was finally able to raise its head slightly and see its surroundings clearly.
It is a very small cave, and it has a strange shape, as if it were made of two stone slabs together. It was raining heavily, but the icy rain was blocked by another stone slab in front of the cave. And in front of the slate that keeps out the rain, there is a strange big guy.
The skin is red, hairless, and very thin. The head is black, and there is a lot of hair, so it looks very long and comfortable.
"Huh? Woke up. ”
The big guy makes a strange noise and then turns around.
The little thing saw a face similar to that of a monkey in the mountains, but this face was whiter than that of a monkey, and it had very little hair, so it was not very good-looking. Only those black eyes are beautiful, just like mother's.
"I did first aid for you, but the injuries were so bad, I thought I was going to hang up. I didn't expect to wake up so quickly, it's quite tenacious. ”
The big guy continued to make strange noises, and the little thing blinked in confusion. However, as a spirit beast's intuition, it felt that the eyes and breath of this big creature were very peaceful, without any malice, unlike those monsters who wanted to eat it as soon as they saw it.
The little thing tries to make a friendly cry to the big guy "Woo~~~~"
"It's a bit imposing, are you a cat or a tiger? Well, I don't know what your name is...... Seeing that you have three tails and golden hair, let's call you a 'three-tailed golden cat'. ”
The big guy also made a sound, still peaceful. Let the little things feel at ease.
"Roar~~~Roar~~~~"
"Uh, are you dissatisfied with the name when the reaction is so violent? Indeed, the words of the 'three-tailed golden cat' sound a bit silly. The big guy stretched out a hairless paw and scratched his chin.
"Then it's called 'Golden Spirit Cat', 'Three-Tailed Golden Spirit Cat'. Well, that's good. ”
The big guy nodded as if he had decided something.
"Roar~~~~"
"Happy? Very good, the nickname is 'Jin San'er'. ”
"Whoa?"
The little thing was happy with the kindness of the big guy, but the strange sounds of the big guy made it a little inexplicably uneasy.
"Judging by your docile appearance, you shouldn't be a white-eyed wolf. Chongyang looked at the eyes of the little thing wrapped in the towel and smiled slightly, "Before you heal, I'll take care of you for a while." ”
