Page 15 Survival in the Wild

Father's Day ~~~~~Well, fathers are deeper, so it's better to do it......

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

It was another day, and Merlin and his entourage, who had finished a full day of combat training, cleaned up and returned to the room to prepare for a rest.

Although the time is approaching December, this forest is still full of green, and there is no cold winter atmosphere, but a little bit of autumn color. Merlin suspected more than once that he had been exiled to the warm south, but Mr. Zang always laughed and said that Merlin was wrong, which made him really confused.

Due to the relatively constant temperature, the insect system here naturally does not have the habit of hibernation and dormancy, and they maintain strong energy and fighting spirit for twelve months of the year, and are working hard to survive all the time.

Although the temperature is still quite high, it is still the time to enter winter, and Merlin inevitably added a vest to keep his body warm - he is neither resistant to heat nor frost, and his body is very delicate.

While enjoying this happy egg and the strange massage service, I was fighting with Hudi, Nine-Tails, and Gotha Duck in my mind, stinking with each other about who was the worst today, or evaluating which insect was particularly vigorous today. Just when a few guys were laughing and bragging, Mr. Zang quietly broke into Merlin's small room again, but the old man, who had always come alone, was followed by two sturdy flying mantises this time.

Merlin only glanced at the two flying mantis and recognized them - the same two that attacked him in the forest before - they seemed to be very expected and favored by Mr. Zang, so they often appeared and participated in the old man's training for Merlin and his party, causing a lot of pain in the team.

The enemies were naturally very angry when they saw each other, and the partners who had been repeatedly defeated by these two flying mantis stared at them angrily. However, based on their respect and fear of Mr. Zang, their hatred and anger are relatively secret.

"Mr. came to visit ...... late at night," Merlin was just about to say hello, but was glared at by Mr. Zang, and had to swallow the rest of the words into his stomach.

"It's so long-winded, it's been so long-winded." The old gentleman continued to glare at Merlin for a while, "Am I going to come to you for no reason without something?" Waste less tongue over there. ”

[I was interrupted by you before I could finish a sentence, and as a result, you rambled a lot, which is still ......" Merlin thought as he scratched his head.

"I'm here to tell you good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Mr. Zhuang asked very old-fashionedly.

"Bad news." Merlin blurted out.

"Starting tomorrow, you roll me into the forest for a month of field training! Or survival training is fine. Mr. Zhuang said viciously.

"And what about the good news?" Merlin didn't seem too surprised by the seemingly sudden bad news, for the old gentleman had already mentioned similar topics several times before, but this time it was just implemented.

"The good news is that I have assigned you two guides who know the path well, preventing you from getting lost." He gestured to the two flying mantis behind him.

Merlin glanced at each of the two flying mantises, and now they were still the same cold look. Glancing at Mr. Zhuang again, the old man was smiling with spring on his face. "No, I don't." Shaking his head and rejecting the old man's kindness, Merlin pulled up the quilt and lay down directly.

"Little bastard!" Mr. Zang flew up and kicked the clogs under his feet, and the clogs like arrows from the string went straight to the back of Merlin's head, and the momentum was really amazing, as if he was going to directly knock Merlin's skull.

But the clogs that flew over were easily stopped by Merlin's ability halfway, turned to look directly at the old man and sent the clogs back to the old man's feet, Merlin said helplessly: "Sir, I'm also a capable person, right?" He sat up and began to explain as best he could why he didn't have the two flying mantises.

"Hmm." Mr. Zang nodded and snorted, signaling that he was listening to Merlin's explanation.

"Capable ......" he pointed his hands at himself, and "Insect ......" pointed at the two flying mantises.

"Obviously." The old gentleman nodded again.

"The ...... of the capable" refers to himself, and the "insect ......" continues to refer to the flying mantis.

"Well, I can tell I'm not old enough to do that." Mr. Zang blew his beard, "Just say what you want to say!?" ”

"The Mighty!" Merlin pointed hard at his head, "Insects!" Stretching out his hands, he pointed at the two praying mantis more respectfully, "...... We don't seem to get along, do we? He said with a wry smile.

Mr. Zhuang frowned and thought for a while, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, are you worried about this?" ”

Merlin nodded vigorously.

"Then bring them to me honestly." The old gentleman lowered his face and said in an undeniable tone, "It is precisely because you are a capable person that you need to be familiar with the insect system, and even cultivate a few insect lines yourself." ”

Merlin was immediately interested when he heard this.

"First of all, tell me about the natural enemies of your abilities." Mr. Zhuang asked.

"Insects, evil, ghosts." Merlin reported directly without thinking, "And then half of the ability and half of the steel." ”

"Hmm." Mr. Zang nodded, "There are only a few natural enemies with such abilities, why can't you take the trouble to try to breed some insect-based, evil-based, and ghost-based Pokémon to understand your worst enemies and find a way to increase your own resistance?" It's just about blindly trying to increase your strength to make up for the innate deficiencies in your attributes, which is not bad, but it doesn't need to be so rigid. I find it more practical to find out why these three attributes restrain the ability. ”

The old man's words made Merlin suddenly brighten, and his face also lit up.

"The first is the three attributes of restraint, insects, ghosts, and evil. I will not tell you about ghosts and evils here, but you need to experience it yourself, and you will need to learn it from a professional expert. I'll only tell you why the insect department can restrain the ability system. Mr. Zang condescendingly began to give an additional lecture on the impromptu level, "Your ability, to put it bluntly, is the semi-substance of spiritual power, and the effect caused by the attack is mostly focused on the damage on the spiritual level, except for a small amount that directly acts on the **." Except, of course, freaks like you. The old gentleman pointed to Merlin in particular.

Merlin nodded.

"For you who use the spiritual plane and the ability system, many of the more subtle and ethereal things are extremely important, especially the spiritual things. You can not care about the bad external environment, but you attach great importance to the purity of your heart. Insects, on the other hand, can disturb the peace and balance of your mind. Mr. Zang said proudly, with a smug smile on his face, "You can say that the chirping and sound of insects are the source of noise, which will interfere with your meditation and energy source. It can also be said that insects are the oldest terror and hostility, which will shake your will and perseverance......"

Of course, the above is a relatively empty statement. Judging from my personal experience over the years, the reason why the insect department will restrain the ability system is actually because ...... "the old gentleman sold it very unkindly," is actually because of the unique body structure of the insect department. The insect system uses pheromones, chemides and sound frequencies to communicate so that they can invisibly restrain their ability itself......" Mr. Zang suddenly gasped, "Of course, that is just my personal opinion and understanding, and the academic community has never agreed with it." Therefore, I learned to train the insect department, and truly felt their fighting style, felt their bodies, and felt their qiē, so that I could understand what makes insects able to restrain their abilities......"

"What do you mean?" Merlin frowned and pondered the old gentleman's words.

"I'm not bored." Mr. Zang suddenly put away his lecture and changed his face to a fierce appearance again, "I mean let these two guys be your guides, and take you and your partners to survive in the forest for a month." You can rest assured that these two guys won't cause you any trouble, they don't need you to be safe, they don't need you to provide food and medical care or anything else. They won't get you into trouble, and even if they do, they can deal with it themselves. At the same time, they do not take the slightest responsibility for your safety and the safety of your partners. Of course, you don't have to be responsible for them either. ”

"This ......," Mr. Zang glared at again, causing Merlin to swallow the rest of the words.

"Starting tomorrow morning, you'll start field training with your buddies. During this time, I will confiscate all your belongings and only allow you to bring three items - I will give you the dagger in your boots, your glasses, and hearing aids - and you will not be allowed to bring anything other than clothing. Of course, I'm making an exception to allow you to bring your companions' Poké Balls with them to serve them. It can only be brought just right. Mr. Zang continued with a straight face: "You must let you and your team survive in the wild for a month with just a dagger, you have to survive in this forest for a month, I will order all the insects in this forest to increase their attacks on you, and you will be in endless pursuit......" Mr. Zang announced the various matters of this training in a cold tone.

Merlin and his companions began to tremble and break out in a cold sweat as they listened. Until he sent Mr. Zhuang away, he couldn't fall asleep with a nervous mood, and the old man's emotionless voice seemed to linger in his ears - that voice was like a death sentence for a dead man.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Neither of them had slept well that night—of course, the two temporary supernumerary flying mantises, who had slept soundly—and they exchanged worries and fears with each other, until at last drowsiness had completely overwhelmed them, and they passed away with a stomach full of uneasiness.

The next morning, everyone had dark circles under their eyes and could not hide their fatigue and anxiety.

Merlin, who had barely slept all night but closed his eyes at dawn, found a whetstone and was polishing the twenty-centimeter-long sharp dagger that he had been carrying with him but had barely unsheathed.

After sharpening the dagger, Merlin carefully studied the crystallization of this industrial technology, the light brown wooden handle, the entire blade is black and non-reflective, the thick back of the knife is concave, the blade is more than nine centimeters long and flashes a small restrained cold light, and the bottom of the blade is a small serration. He gently stroked the blade with his fingers, and a chill immediately came from his fingers, and blood beads dripped down.

Merlin hurriedly sucked the wound and spat out the blood in his mouth. Seeing this, Happy Egg hurriedly ran over to give Merlin medicine.

Looking at this dagger from a military factory that really experienced World War II, Merlin was also full of thoughts for a while. He had two of these daggers tucked into his boots, one on the left and one on the left. They were originally from his grandfather's collection, but were later requisitioned by Merlin to cut paper when he happened to be very sharp. Later, it became Merlin's collection, which he hid in his boots as a protective tool, but gradually became a carpentry knife for cutting wood......

"Are you ready?" Just when Merlin was thinking wildly, Mr. Zang came to the door again, stood in the small courtyard and yelled at them: "I only count down to five!" He stretched out his withered palm in mid-air, "Five! ”

Merlin hurriedly put away the dagger, and began to store all the friends with the Po Ball all over his body, leaving only the Carty dog Legion who could come in handy to stand outside.

"Four!" With his thumb back, Merlin's friends are returning to the ball.

"Three!" The little finger retracted, and the stored Poké Balls began to float back to where they belonged.

"Two!" After the ring finger was withdrawn and the baby balls were absorbed by the suction cups, Merlin rushed into the small courtyard with the catty dog.

"One!" The middle finger was also retracted, and Merlin and Cutty Dog, along with the two Flying Mantises, were standing right in the courtyard.

Mr. Zang glanced at Merlin, who was lightly dressed, from a distance, "I won't search your body, I believe you won't do such a tasteless thing." ”

Merlin stood straight. The cutty dog also squatted on the grass and looked majestic. During this time, this little guy has also made significant progress, and he can already take charge of himself. And the two flying praying mantis stood extremely respectful.

"Good." Mr. Zang glanced at them one by one, "Survival in the wild will begin immediately!" Thirty days from now you will be able to return to this compound! He let out a loud shout.

Immediately, the ground at Merlin's feet swelled, and a large number of insects broke through the ground.

【Let's go!】 ] called the catty dog with telepathy, and Merlin and it broke straight out of the door. In front of him and behind him, a flying mantis followed from a distance. At the end, a large number of insects are pursuing them with their teeth and claws.

Seeing Merlin's team rush out of the courtyard and the entire house, Mr. Zhuang sighed softly, and walked back to his room somewhat lonely, "It's not good to teach young people, it's both happy and sad to watch them grow up, and the contradictions are tight...... It won't be long before this guy can go out, and he can walk out with his chest held high......" Talking alone, Mr. Zhuang shook back to his bedroom step by step.

Pushing open the door, there were four men, women, and children sitting in the shadows of the bedroom. The old man didn't bother to look at them a few times, but just walked to his warm couch and lay down comfortably, and after taking a few breaths, he asked, "Okay, tell me what you came to me for." Why do you suddenly remember that I, an old immortal, is here? ”

The four people in the room looked at each other, but did not speak.

At this moment, the sun moved slightly, and the sunlight broke through the shadows that shrouded the four of them, revealing their figures. From left to right sit an old crane woman, a handsome young woman, a charming young woman, and a stout middle-aged man.
