Chapter 133: Absorbing Flames
Nagrand? With Mochi's current strength, it was a little too far to go there for guidance. Nagland is located outside of Azeroth, which is more dangerous than the area he has been to now, with more powerful and dangerous creatures. So until he has enough self-preservation power, Mochi can't put this matter on the agenda.
At this stage, the more reliable approach is to seek help from Gizley.
And judging from the fact that Gizley knows his own shortcomings, this troll shaman is still a pretty reliable teacher. A true teacher always maintains a humble and cautious teaching attitude, understands that he still has various shortcomings, and maintains the state and momentum of learning.
Previously, Mochi thought that Gizley was an unreliable trickster, but after a few days of getting along, Moqi realized that he was also judging people by his appearance.
He took out a piece of parchment, respectfully wrote the words "Teacher, please continue to teach me," and presented the piece of paper to Gizli in a bowing position. The immediate request is also an apology for one's previous attitude.
Gizley was a little nervous when she saw Moch saluting so solemnly, and she thought that Moch didn't really understand what he meant, so she explained again: "I really think it would be better for you to go to Nagrand." I'm just an ordinary shaman, and it's okay to teach ordinary students, but in your case, I'm really not sure. ”
Mochi remained in a bowed posture, and a piece of paper with the words "Teacher, please continue to teach me" was held above his head.
"Okay, okay...... Don't do that, then I'll give it a try. Gizley said helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Mo Qi immediately raised his head, revealing a mouth full of fangs and a treacherous smile at Gizley.
Gizley had a plan for Mochi to train for a short period of time –
The first is to determine the characteristics of the flame mark on the palm of Mochi's left hand, and increase its strength according to its characteristics.
The second is to establish this connection with other elements, according to Gizley, "earth, fire, water, and wind are all elemental powers that a shaman must master, and without any of them, a shamanic path is incomplete." I've seen many examples of shamans who are paranoid about conspiring with an elemental and end up being consumed by a single element that is too powerful and become an elemental monster with no sense. ”
Hearing that it would turn into an elemental monster that would lose its mind, Moqi was also shocked. If the consequences are so serious, no matter how you look at it, you should reverse the first step and the second step, and give priority to establishing an affinity with the four elements.
Mochi wrote down his doubts on a piece of paper and handed it to Gizli.
Gizley replied, "I'm sure you've discovered it through the past few days of study—it's useless to be anxious, we can only wait for the summons of the elemental spirits. Many times, the more restless you are, the more alienated the elemental spirits will be from you, the more the elemental spirits will see through your inner anxiety and insecurity, and the more you will try to use them to fulfill your desires, the more you will deviate from the true shamanic path. ”
After listening to Gizzley's words, Mochi realized that his understanding of shamans was somewhat narrow. The so-called shamanic way is not only a means of using elemental powers, but also a religious philosophy with the concept of nature worship.
"My first impression was right, Gizley was a god......"
The final step is to collect the necessary materials to craft his own totem pole once Mochi has established a connection with the four elements.
Regarding the last step, Mo Qi also didn't understand, and said that I am so talented, and I have fused with the elemental spirit, is it still necessary to make totems?
"Isn't it a shaman with average talent who uses totems?" As Mo Qi finished writing this sentence on the paper, Gizley behind him showed a helpless expression.
"It is common sense that totems can strengthen the shaman's own abilities, which can not only compensate for the elemental affinity of those with ordinary talents, but also make those with strong talents stronger, which is ......"
All right...... It turns out that totems are not exclusive to people with average talents, and shamans with strong talents can also do it.
With their plans in place, Mochi and Gizley began to study the flame mark on Mochi's left palm.
Although Moqi has a system that can check the attributes of items, this mark does not belong to the category of items, so there is no way to check the function of this mark. He could only speculate on the effect of this flame mark based on the effect of the "wolf mark".
"I'll try to summon the Fire Elemental Spirit directly." Mochi wrote on paper.
Gizley nodded, "Well, you can try it." ”
Moqi focused all his attention on the Fire Mark, and after five minutes, Moqi had neither summoned the Fire Elemental Spirit nor been able to complete spiritual communication with it.
"This flame mark may not function the same as the 'wolf mark' on your back." Gizley thought and said, "The power contained in the wolf seal is very powerful, this wolf soul was a powerful creature in life, right?" ”
Mochi recalled the first time he saw the Lone Hunter, and nodded.
"That's right. The first time I saw you, I could feel the power of the beast spirit, and I now understand that this energy comes from the wolf spirit in you...... But this flame mark is completely different. Even if you fuse with it, I still barely feel the power of the elemental spirit in you. Speaking of this, Gizley nodded affirmatively, "Yes, the power of this fire elemental spirit itself is too weak, so you can't communicate with him, because the voice is too faint for you to hear at all." ”
Mooch understood what Gizley meant—the elemental spirit was too weak compared to the wolf soul—but how could he increase its power?
"Now all we have to do is let the sigil on your hand actively absorb more flame energy."
That is to say-
"Your left hand is going to bake the fire?"
As he spoke, Gizley took a brazier from the corner of the tent and threw a few pieces of wood into it.
“Dazdooga。”
The troll shaman said a word Mochi hadn't heard before, and the wood in the brazier burst into flames. Mochi guessed that the word meant "flame," and repeated it in his head several times, trying to keep it in mind.
"Keep the flame mark in your palm as close to the flame as possible." Gizley said.
Mo Qi spread out his palms so that the palms of both hands were aimed at the flames in the basin, and after about half a minute, Mo Qi could vaguely feel the difference between the left and right palms. The flame mark in the palm of his left hand is absorbing the energy released by the brazier, but this process is very slow, and if you are not careful, you will likely ignore this slow absorption.
Mooch happily told Gizley about this feeling.
Gizley didn't speak, but turned around and took out a blue crystal bottle from the wooden box in the corner. Gizley unscrewed the cork and poured a dark brown oily substance into it. The fire in the basin grew louder, and the orange-red flame gradually replaced by blue. Half a meter away, Moqi could feel the heat wave released by the blue flames, and Moqi immediately realized that this was not a simple reaction of flame color - the addition of metal elements could change the color of the flames - the liquid in the bottle completely changed the nature and strength of the flames.
"That way, the results could be better." Gizley nodded in satisfaction.
Mo Qi slowly reached out of his palm, this time his palm was farther away than before, but the speed at which he absorbed energy was noticeably faster.
"It's okay, you can get closer." Gizley said.
Mo Qi stretched forward a few centimeters, and the temperature of the air flow in front of his palm increased a lot.
"Closer." Gizley said impatiently.
Mo Qi probed a few more centimeters, and his palm was already slightly hot under the roasting flames.
"A little further, as a shaman, how can you be afraid of fire?" As he spoke, Gizley pulled Mochi's palm very close to the Flame Tongue.
Absorbing the flame energy at this distance, the skin of Moqi's palm was in danger of being licked by the tongue of fire at any time.
Mo Qi suddenly felt that this troll woman was not helping him, but wanted to eat "Grilled Fish Man Palm" for dinner.
