"Tidy up your things, let's go out. Bai-Xiao_Sheng(.)" One morning a week later, Marisa said this to Cheng Peng.
"Okay, Ms. Misty Rain."
Marisa rolled her eyes, but didn't speak.
Since she made it clear that she didn't allow Cheng Peng to call her "Teacher Wuyu", this stranger has always called her "Ms. Wuyu".
Madam, not Miss. Adventure 30
She once asked Rinnosuke about the meaning of these two words, and the half-demon uncle who had been taking care of her thought for a while, and replied, "This young man is good, very good!" โ
She went to ask Reimu again, of course Reimu herself didn't understand, but there were a lot of strangers studying art in the Hakurei Shrine, and she asked the strangers to ask, and the answer was: "Lady is a name for a respectable woman's 'sex', often used to address older or noble women." โ
For a little girl, whether it is old age or noble status, it makes her feel happy.
So she accepted the title with satisfaction.
I took Cheng Peng out today to visit a friend.
Compared to her, that friend could do two things that she couldn't.
First: figure out why the same mushroom has a completely different effect on Cheng Peng than himself.
Marisa Kiriyu would of course find it strange about the effect of the mushroom drink on Cheng Peng, but her grinning "sexual" personality played a role - she didn't think much about it, she just smiled and said, "Although the effect is different from mine, it's good if it works."
Well, it's as simple as that, neither slicing Cheng Peng for testing, nor catching him as a guinea pig.
Actually, she really wanted to study it, but the thought of wasting time on something that didn't make much sense and only satisfied her curiosity a little bit made her lose interest.
As a human with a very short lifespan, her time is precious......
And that friend is different from her, she is an immortal magician, and she has enough time to study slowly.
The second purpose is to find a decent teacher for Cheng Peng.
Marisa knew that she was not a good teacher of others, and although she was good at hands-on and confident in her ability to fight, when Cheng Peng asked her several times for knowledge about magic books, she realized that she did not have the level of knowledge to guide others.
Unlike ordinary magicians with long lives and profound knowledge, she was born in the wild and was still young, and she had an innate disadvantage in terms of knowledge reserves.
But that friend is different!
"Although Alice is good at dolls, she is a regular magician, and she is much more professional than me in magic books." She said irresponsibly, "If you have any problems in this area in the future, you can come and consult her, she is different from me, she is basically at home every day." โ
"Actually, Pache is more knowledgeable than Alice, but she lives in the Red Devil Mansion...... That place is honestly not friendly to humans, Alice is different, with your "sexuality", you will definitely be able to get along with her! โ
Cheng Peng sincerely thanked Marisa for taking care of him. Adventure 30
Then, following the mentor who was flying slowly on a broomstick, he met the senior of the magician.
Alice? Margot Royd.
"Why do you want to stay here? Isn't it good to stay there? When she saw Cheng Peng returning to the tent with her luggage, Marisa's face was full of surprise, "Alice is very easy to get along with." โ
Cheng Peng sighed speechlessly.
yes, it's easy to get along with.
But he felt a lot of pressure......
Unlike Marisa, who is at best fair-eyed, Alice, the puppeteer, is a super beauty that is dazzlingly beautiful!
Looking at her face, even a strong person like Cheng Peng, who prides himself on having extraordinary concentration, can't help but have his heart beating faster, his blood pressure rising, and his hormone secretion rate increasing by at least fifty percent.
In the face of such a super beauty, people who can still study knowledge with peace of mind, what realm does it have to be wood?
At least Cheng Peng knows very well that he can't do it.
Stay with Alice?
Well, as much as I say that My Fair Lady is a gentleman, a fool can also see what Alice means to Marisa - oh, the natural Marisa herself doesn't seem to see it, or she deliberately pretends to be stupid when she sees it.
So Cheng Peng felt that it was better for him to come back and live, and he just asked for advice when he had a problem.
"I now finally understand why there are always fanatical fans in the Magic Forest who come to pursue Alice." When Marisa left in doubt, he sat alone in the tent, laughing and muttering to himself, "Understandable, understandable!" โ
Then, he drank another bottle of mushroom drink.
When Liu Xueji came with the news that the duel between Bo Li Reimu and Remilia was about to begin, Cheng Peng's true qi refinement had already been quite effective.
Although there is no significant change in the total amount of internal forces, both the ability to control internal forces and the effect of internal forces themselves have produced considerable improvements.
For example, in the case of condensing water into ice, once he exerts his work, the temperature around his entire body will drop significantly, and if he exerts it on the basin, a thin layer of ice will form on the surface of the entire basin - this is already the minimum output, and it will consume about five percent of the internal force.
Now, he can condense the internal force on one hand, so that the water basin only needs to form a thicker ice floe where his palm touches, and only needs to consume about two percent of the internal force.
If you continue to work hard, you will be able to condense less than one percent of the internal force at your fingertips, so that what you only touch with your fingertips will freeze into icicles, and the water temperature will not drop anywhere else, right?
But...... That can take a lot of time.
But at least now the power of his frozen throwing spear has been greatly increased, and the condensed ice energy can even damage disembodied ghosts. Adventure 30
These days, in addition to taking poison and practicing qi, he has also traveled to the depths of the Magic Forest more than once to reflect on the path that blooms with bright red manju sawa to find those fierce ghosts to fight.
It's not that there are no higher-level monsters in the Forest of Magic, but as long as it's a four-star monster or higher, each one will have a lot of subordinates. Cheng Peng really couldn't deal with seven or eight three-star monsters and dozens of two-star monsters while cleaning up four-star monsters - the overwhelming barrage alone was enough to "force" him to get close, so he had to go to trouble those ghosts who always acted alone.
Disembodied ghosts have an extraordinary resistance to physical attacks, simply ignoring physical attacks, and can only damage them if they are condensed to a certain level of internal force.
At the beginning, Cheng Peng fought very hard, and even escaped from the desert more than once by a mere three-star level ghost - this thing is simply the nemesis of a martial artist!
But as his true qi continued to improve, he gradually became more and more comfortable dealing with ghosts.
When Chen Wumian and Xiao Moran came to visit Marisa, he was holding a drop-shaped sapphire that had burst out of a four-star ghost, asking Marisa, an ecological expert in the Forest of Magic, about the purpose of this thing.
"Marisa-sensei, are you there? We brought good black tea and snacks~"
Fascinated by the food and black tea, Marisa put down the sapphire that had made her eyes glow not long ago, and happily received the two visitors.
Chen Wumian and Xiao Moran, two friends, both moved to Gensokyo from other worlds, and the thin, weak, and seemingly malnourished Chen Wumian has a strange genetic disease narcolepsy, although in reality the symptoms have been greatly alleviated by genetic tuning, but in the game it is still the same, often asleep; And Xiao Moran, who often sneers, is a typical stuffy jar, and all his expressions are all kinds of sneers - it seems that except for Chen Wumian, no one can tell whether his sneer is "smiling with joy" or "laughing with anger".
"They're all good people!" Marisa didn't mind giving each of the two young people who came to ask for advice a good person card, "Every time I come with a giftโwell, Cheng Peng, you too, you are all good people!" โ
Cheng Peng smiled bitterly, Xiao Moran sneered, Chen Wumian smirked - oh, he fell asleep again.
Chen Xiao and the others live in the Red Devil Pavilion and study under Pacouli, the strongest magician in Gensokyo? Norregi. However, the two are not from the same world - Xiao Moran was born in the world of "Yu-Gi-Oh", and after collecting a lot of monster cards, he decided to build his own magic tower and study the way to equip monster cards in the world other than Yu-Gi-Oh. So he came to Gensokyo, and after many hardships, he finally succeeded in worshipping under Pache and systematically learning magic.
But building the Magic Tower is not a small project, and with the strength of just one person, even a great magician like Patchouli is quite difficult, not to mention Xiao Moran, a novice in the magic world. So he also brought his friend Chen Wumian, who was studying at Hogwarts, a famous magic school in the world of "Harry Potter", to study summoning magic and spell magic, which complemented each other.
"If you know any other great magicians, be sure to contact him and talk to us." When saying goodbye, Xiao Moran, who had been silent, said seriously, "If the magic tower is built, it will help the magician's strength to improve by leaps and bounds, which is a very beneficial thing for everyone!" โ
Cheng Peng agreed, and contacted Wei Ye after they left.
When chatting before, Wei Ye once said that his growth direction was immortal warlock, and in Cheng Peng's opinion, immortal magic and magic seemed to be similar.
"That's a lot!" Wei Ye replied with the same seriousness, "What we immortal warlocks pursue is the unity of man and heaven and earth, and the ultimate goal is to achieve a heavenly immortal who is in harmony with the Great Dao; But the magicians are using their own power to distort nature - each other's ideas are completely different, and it is already cultivated to meet without fighting, don't expect us to cooperate well. โ
"If I use my magic on that magic tower, the only result is that it will lose the ability to upset the balance around it and steal power from the origin of the world - are you sure those guys need my help?"
Cheng Peng thought about it and gave up his plan to contact Xiao Moran.
Less than three minutes later, he received a text message from Liu Xueji.
"Come to Hakurei Shrine, the duel between Reimu and the eldest lady is about to begin!"
