Chapter 168: Magical Affinity

A sailboat about ten meters long slowly docked on the shore of the empty ferry territory.

Rand changed his conspicuous satin robe into the cotton clothes of the common people and a coat, and the temperature on the ship at night would be very low, and he had to wear thick enough clothes to keep warm.

After the gangplank was lowered, Rand held on to the ship's strings, kicked the bulge of the gangplank, and went straight to the deck.

Behind him, the shadow followed like a ghost with his long knife, which never left his body.

Oak was last in line, and when he stepped on the boat, the sailor in charge of the sundries put away the gangplank.

"My lord, are you sure you only have the two of them, at least two squads, in case of an emergency, I mean what if the enemy is several times more numerous than you?" Touron was a little dumbfounded when he saw that Rand really didn't even bring a single soldier.

"Don't worry, the Shadow and Orc are enough to keep me safe, and the Sky Ferry is only a day's waterway away from Eagle City," Rant smiled, "The thieves in this neighborhood have long been scared by Ron, and no one of the thieves dares to wander here." ”

Seeing that Rand had already made up his mind, Touron knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, he could only mutter, and after Rand set off, he ordered the sheriffs of the villages and towns along the way to keep an eye on the movement of the ship to avoid accidents.

As the departure horn sounded, the helmsman slowly steered the ship away from the air collar.

Seeing the silhouette of the hollow collar in his vision becoming more and more blurred, Rand chose a comfortable position to lie down.

There was still a day to go before his destination, so there was no need to be anxious, and before that, Rand was silently thinking about what attitude to use to negotiate with the other party.

Rand was closing his eyes to recuperate, and the rest of Orc and Shadow stared at each other with wide eyes, and the atmosphere was full of embarrassment.

"You made the movement on the south side of the castle the other night, right?" Shadow asked after a moment of silence.

A few days ago, Oak recalled that the shadow should have been his first purification, although Oak didn't pay attention to it at that time, but thinking that the movement caused by the flame rising and changing would not be small, he nodded and said, "The first time, I didn't have much experience, so I made the movement bigger." ”

Loud moves?

The shadow didn't speak, but a strange feeling swelled up, when Orc's first evolution had just begun, the shadow, with extremely keen perception, sensed it, and because of the relative closeness, he avoided the guards and found the place where the magic surged.

While Oak was battling the flames, Shadow hid in the shadows and watched him quietly.

Without anyone to guide and no one to guard him, he actually dared to evolve, this guy is also a ruthless character.

This was Shadow's first impression of Oak after seeing that scene.

But what happened next made the shadow a little unpredictable.

He knows very well how difficult it is to evolve, especially for an elemental capable like Oak, and the most destructive fire system, it can be said that in the process of evolution, he must always keep his mind clear, and his body's reaction must be at the peak.

One mistake may lead to a catastrophe.

Shadow still remembers the result of the fire-based ability companion after the failure of evolution.

The flames engulfed the user, and the scorching heat made it impossible for anyone present to get close, and they could only watch as their companions were reduced to ashes in their own power.

He would have thought that Orc's evolution would be difficult, if not even harder, but he was ready to hide in the dark.

Prepare to cut off Orc's connection to his magic the moment it gets out of control.

This is the only way to save the Orc in the raging tide of magic.

In the same way, the shadow has to pay a big price.

Although he is completely indifferent to this guy, he is somewhat useful to the air crosser, and it is always a pity to die now.

This is the idea of the shadow.

But Shadow was shocked by Orc's performance, and he saw the flames rise above Oak's body, the same thing that his companion had done, but then Shadow saw that the restless magic in Orc's body seemed to be manipulated by a pair of invisible hands, and although it was a little rusty at first, over time, the magic was driven through Orc's veins like a docile sheep.

Then the color of the flame began to change, from crimson to pure white, which was the most dangerous step, and it was at this stage that the companion had died.

The shadow gripped the hilt of the sword, and the flames would cause violent turbulence in the process of transformation, and the originally gentle magic power would also become violent, and he stared at the vortex of Oak's mana, as long as there was a slightest wave, he would immediately strike.

But nothing happened, the pure white flame transformed silently, and when he came back to his senses, Orc's first evolution was complete.

This......

Shadow was a little stunned, why was Oak different from the rest of his companions.

The dangers, pains, struggles, and lives hanging by a thread in the process of evolution were not seen in Oak's body, but at the beginning, Oak seemed a little uncomfortable, and there was a slight expression of forbearance, but compared to the other companions, this pain was not worth mentioning at all.

And the subsequent process is inevitably too smooth!

Is that what it is...... Talented?

Looking at Oak's slightly golden pupils in the darkness, the shadow gradually receded into the darkness.

But a few days later, Shadow couldn't help but ask.

"You're a lot braver than most of your companions. The shadow said lightly: "There are many demon seeds who died from the first evolution, and there are many demon seeds who are afraid to take that step because they are afraid of death, I admit that you are very courageous." ”

"Thank you. Hearing the shadow's heartfelt praise, Oak couldn't help but get excited, the other party always looked cold, it seemed difficult to contact, but now it doesn't seem to be exactly like that, "I'm just a little luckier." ”

"No, it can't be just a matter of luck. Maybe you haven't realized it yourself, but your manipulation of magic is far greater than that of the same level of demon species, and among the people I've seen, even Old Man Snow can't compare to you. The shadow said word for word, "It's not just a matter of luck. ”

"You have a supernatural affinity for magic, and no matter how violent it is, it becomes docile and easy to manipulate. The shadow stared into Oak's eyes: "It's an extremely rare talent, but don't be too busy to be happy just yet......"

"The dangers it poses are also enormous. ”
