Chapter Twenty-Eight: Elemental Elves

Dawn.

Chongyang wakes up in a soft light. In the dimly lit room, the dazzling morning light shines through the window, forming a very bright pillar of light. He couldn't help but squint slightly, and found that he seemed to suddenly wear a pair of high-powered magnifying glasses, drifting, floating, and impacting the dust in the pillar of light...... See clearly.

Reborn?

No...... I can't say it, it's just that my vision has been greatly strengthened again, and my facial features feel clearer. Inside the body, many important organs are strengthened by drugs to improve their functions. You can clearly feel that the heart is beating extremely strongly, sending blood to all parts of the body with strong pressure to supply energy.

The whole body is full of vitality.

It feels so good.

Chongyang opened his eyes and came back to his senses, only to find that there was still a woman lying next to the bed.

Helen sat on the carpet beside the bed, holding the man's big hand in both hands, and fell asleep with her head hanging down to the sheet because of the weariness of waiting.

The hair is gently tied around the white and delicate cheeks, the breath is gentle, the eyelashes shake slightly from time to time, and the lips are pursed up, soft and moisturized.

Are you dreaming?

Hope is a good dream.

Chongyang stared at the woman who had accompanied him all night, and his heart was a little touched. Although, in essence, it's just a beautiful misunderstanding. But he is not an emotionally dull idiot after all, and he always feels the heart of a woman.

In love?

I don't have that kind of room to spare...... Chongyang smiled bitterly. In his last life, after an unforgettable love, he had little interest in this aspect. He can appreciate beautiful women like normal men, and he also has normal physiological impulses, but in the face of emotions called love, there is a faint indifference in the bottom of his heart.

He's not a cold person, but he's not an amorous person either.

Gently, gently, and carefully...... Place Helen's little hand and slowly let go.

Facing the beautiful woman's peaceful sleeping face, he sighed.

Let it be.

......

Chongyang left the bed without waking Helen, went to the toilet, and took a bath to clean himself after relieving himself as usual.

It's strange that the effect of the medicine should have ended, but the body is still a little weak. It's very energetic, but I just don't want to move.

Chongyang was groping for changes in his body, when suddenly a loud gurgling sound came from his stomach. I see......

"Mr. Chongyang, are you inside?" came footsteps and a somewhat anxious greeting from outside the door.

"Ah...... I'm here. Chongyang said busily.

The woman outside the door seemed relieved.

"How does it feel?"

"Much better, thank you for taking care of ......"

"You're welcome, I didn't actually do anything......"

Through a door, the two of them were suddenly speechless. Chongyang didn't understand what to say in this case. Thanks are too pale, flirtatious and don't want to.

The atmosphere continued to be awkward and ambiguous.

"You...... Just now...... I should be hungry......" In the end, it was Helen who took the initiative to break the silence outside the door and said with a little stammer.

"Ah...... Well. "The stomach growls so loudly that I can hear it through a wall.

"I'll make you something to eat, okay?"

Is it possible for Chongyang to refuse? Therefore, he was destined to have a warm and sweet breakfast that made him more and more difficult.

......

Finally sending Helen away, Chongyang lay back on the bed, looking at the ceiling, until the fire demon suddenly appeared.

"Stupid disciple, the method of hooking up with a woman is quite clever. ”

Chongyang pretended not to understand the sarcasm of the fire demon.

"Don't do physical training today, get into meditation, I have something new to teach you. The Firedemon continued.

A new type of fire-based magic with an unparalleled advantage in attack.

From the most basic Qi Burning Technique, to the Air Explosion Technique, the Atmospheric Explosion Technique, the High Air Explosion Technique, and even the Twin Starbursts, which are currently the strongest attacks in Chongyang, all of them are anti-heaven magic with low magic power consumption but great power.

However, if this is all there is to it, the flaw is obvious, and that is the long-standing weakness of fire magic: defense!

Unlike the earth, wind, and even water systems, which have the powerful advantage of natural universality, the fire magic has a low degree of barrier protection, which makes many magic masters and formation masters very troubled.

Attacking the strong and defending the weak...... After the advantage of strong attack no longer existed with the development of the times, the consistent weakness of the garrison directly contributed to the long-term decline of the fire system.

On the mainland, there are countless jokes about high-level fire mages being solved by low-level mages in an instant without making a move.

And Chongyang, who is ten times more active than other mages and practices magic evasion with his heart, also has a deep reason for the weakness of fire magic defense.

This situation must change.

The maverick Fire Demon Grandmaster also has a completely different view of the defense of fire magic from the traditional mainstream view of the mainland.

"The defense of fire mages should be to abandon enchantment magic at the beginning and focus on elemental elf summoning magic to the extreme. ”

Elemental sprites.

In magical theory, they are regarded as condensed elements of higher levels, with a certain level of intelligence and character by virtue of the soul imprint imposed by the caster. After being summoned, it can assist the caster in battle for a certain period of time, playing the role of attack, defense, and support.

"There is a natural bias in almost all magicians on the continent. The group prejudice that comes from human arrogance, pride, and conceit makes them refuse to admit a fact that should be simple, even if there is more evidence. The Fire Demon said as proudly as ever.

"What facts?"

"The elements are alive. ”

......

............

"Look, right now, you're showing that stupid look of arrogance and prejudice, stupid disciple. The Firedemon sneered mercilessly. made Chongyang have to try his best to restrain the horrified look on his face.

"Elementals are extremely small living beings, and spells and magic circles that have been passed down since ancient times are the language of communication with them, and magic is one of their food. We magicians pay for our magic and employ elementals to work for us. Essentially, humans ...... No, even all the high-level life forms, including Warcraft, are actually just greenhouses for elemental survival and reproduction. ”

"They who exist in every corner of the heavens and the earth, from the origin of the elemental plane to the material plane, are the true gods, beings who are above all life. Humans, who call themselves their rulers, are in fact so small in the face of an infinite number of elemental beings. ”

"But...... It is said that magic is the food of the elements...... Isn't this magic itself formed by the elements?" Chongyang couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't it strange that the elements absorb the magic created by the elements? Just as humans always eat meat, aren't human bodies also made of flesh and blood?"

Chongyang was speechless.

"And for the elements, magic is only one of the 'food'. That is why the elements are higher than humans, because humans are now inseparable from them, but they are by no means entirely dependent on humans. The elemental plane is their home, and the material plane is just a place for them to travel. ”

"Countless proofs speak for all this, but humanity has never recognized the superiority and greatness of the elements as living beings. ”

"So...... You chose to end up as an elemental spirit beyond humans?"

"There are also reasons for this...... After studying the elements and elemental spirits for a long time, I discovered an endless charm that most mages are not aware of. Elemental elves should never be just tools for magicians, but should also become magicians' companions, and even be able to shelter powerful beings of magicians. ”

Enchantment magic, which occupies the position of the main defense force in the traditional concept, has a natural defect in the nature of the fire system, and no matter how much it is studied, it is only a dead end, and it can never be compared with the earth system, the wind system, and the water system, which are all universal.

This is due to the natural environment of the material plane and cannot be changed.

However, elemental sprites are different.

As high-level elemental beings, elemental spirits of all departments are essentially equal, and are far less constrained in universality than enchantment magic. By tapping into the unrecognized potential of elemental elves, they can become a mage's most powerful companion and shield.

"When you duel with that little girl of the Earth Wind Twin Lineage, didn't you also experience the advantages of the elemental elves in battle?"

Chongyang nodded. Freya summons elemental spirits three times in duels, which can be defended, attacked, and contained, far more flexible than mere defensive enchantment magic.

"The focus of the fire mage's defense will fall on the elemental elves. The conventional wisdom is that elemental spirit summoning has a lot to do with the so-called 'elemental affinity'. Only mages with high elemental affinity can summon high-ranking elemental spirits...... Again, this is a big mistake. ”

The Flame Demon has refuted all the basics of the traditional theory.

"Affinity, like human looks, is a pleasing look, which can attract elements, but that's not the point. To summon elemental spirits, it is fundamentally in terms of 'food', that is, 'reward'. For example, an employer who looks very handsome but pays very little, or an employer who looks ugly but pays 100 times more than the former, which one would you choose?"

Of course, the one that pays more......

"Is it to consume more mana and summon high-ranking elemental spirits?" Chongyang frowned.

"No, if that's the same as the traditional stupid theory, you can't just increase the amount of mana, you have to work on the quality of mana. ”

"Magic is 'food', and food needs to taste better to attract more noble guests, and that's the way it is. Also, mindset is important. The elements are living and intelligent, and human beings pay a lot of money to hire them, and it doesn't care what the attitude of the employer is. But if you want to hire a higher rank for less, the employer's attitude is also a key factor. ”

No one likes an arrogant and stupid employer......

Chongyang gradually figured it out.

This is a huge change in concept! If it weren't for the fact that he had two lifetimes of experience and knew that there was such a thing as "microbes" in the world, he might not be able to accept such shocking theories like the magicians on the mainland.

Elements are higher life forms.

Elemental spirits are powerful beings with intelligence.

If you want to summon a high-level thug to help, you have to treat it with the most delicious meal and the most respectful attitude.

Above...... It is almost impossible for a traditional magician to agree with and accept it! Human beings are accustomed to arrogance and arrogance in the self-proclaimed spirit of all things, let alone the more proud magicians among human beings?

But Chongyang calmly accepted. The Flame Demon was satisfied with Chongyang's acceptance. Originally, he was ready to bombard this stupid disciple indiscriminately for a long time, completely changing the stupid concept formed by traditional education.

I didn't expect it to be unexpectedly easy.

What a favorite disciple...... Then as a reward, let's call a few "stupid" disciples a few times.

"Why, if you figured it out, what I'm going to teach you now is to transform your magic into a secret tome of 'delicacies' for the elemental elves. ”

In addition to the new type of fire-based magic, the fire demon itself is most proud of its achievement-

The Heart Sutra of the Fire Demon

Chongyang: "............"
