Section 25: Beginning of Autumn
Old Ferrero looked very happy, because it was a very perfect dissection, and his lovely new apprentice, although his hands and feet were a little clumsy, but considering that he had not worked as an assistant before today, this ribs and organs danced together and his heart did not collapse, and he had completely surpassed those so-called disciples before him.
So even if it's stupid, it's nothing, this kid is only ten years old, just teach.
And this teaching also made old Ferrero happy - the hook can be solved at one point, how to cut can be taught as soon as it is taught, and even the extraction of organs only needs to be demonstrated once to understand its principle.
Such a perfect apprentice actually let the old tuberculosis ghost get it.
Old Ferrero is really full of heartache, such a good child, to learn what to fight and kill, to study medicine, to learn his skills, young and golden, this ladder road can be walked as much as you want, there is no need to grab those leftovers with those war positions.
Luckily, the kid was really smart.
This made old Ferrero look at Colin much better - he used to think why this kid didn't come to inherit his mantle, but now it seems that this kid is quite self-aware, for the sake of the little apprentice he provided him, he won't need to come over to pull the hook in the future.
The freedom you want, I'll give you.
………………
Colin pushed open the door and looked at old Hoffman sitting in the setting sun, and he walked to the table to replace the incense that was about to be lit.
"Colin, how is it today?"
"Very good, mentor, Marin, this child, is beyond imagination, I now somewhat understand Carmo's feelings, a child who cannot be controlled, is greedily absorbing power, wanting to become stronger...... If one day he falls...... Can't imagine such an ending. At this point, Colin smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "I'm talking about discouragement again." ”
"I can understand it, but I believe what the kid said that day, and I always remember what he said." Old Hoffman coughed twice and repeated: "Even if I regret it in the years to come, at least at this moment today, I have paid for this answer, and that is enough...... He is not like a child who does not understand the world, but like an elder who sees through the world. ”
"I don't regret the choice I made." Colin smiled and took the blanket and put it over his mentor's lap, "It's getting dark, mentor, come in." ”
"Uh-huh......" closed his eyes and leaned back on the back of the wheelchair, and when the wheelchair under old Hoffman turned indoors, the old man sighed: "Colin, my child, I thought about what this child said again today, and I asked myself, and I found out what I had done about my past...... Regretted it. ”
"Mentor......" Colin looked at the old man in front of him, a little silent, he knew the pain and regret he was carrying, and he knew that his senior brother was also ready to accept everything that his mentor carried: "I understand you, mentor. ”
"Silly boy, I don't need to understand, I don't even need someone to understand what I'm carrying...... I'm just, I just regret it, I regret that I didn't try, I didn't try to change the suffering that I was carrying, and if I succeeded, your brother, and his successors, would no longer suffer. Turning his head to look at his student, the old man's face was full of remorse.
Looking at his mentor, Colin pursed his mouth, he still remembered that it was this old man who had not been so old enough to pick himself up from the poor alley, teach himself to learn the arts, and give the cub who didn't know who his father was and was abandoned by his mother a way to live, he turned to the left side of the wheelchair and knelt down on one knee: "Mentor, this is the responsibility of our school, we guard this city." ”
"Thank you and Masson for your hard work." The old man stretched out his hand and rubbed the head of the student in front of him, just as he had when he was young.
"For the sake of this world, Guru, we are fearless and face sacrifice." Colin lowered his head: "If you serve God with sincerity, you will do nothing." ”
………………
What the old half-elf was thinking, Marlin didn't know, but the knowledge he gained today still made Marin happy - first of all, he knew how the professional came, although there were those inexplicable potions, those inexplicable materials, and those more inexplicable core materials, and those unlucky people who became professionals but rotted Ou Jinjin.
Hey, this thing is really dangerous, but you still can't escape the law of true fragrance.
Marin felt that it was good for him to follow the path of his senior brother Colin, although the price was to become a clergyman of the Earth Goddess Church, but he had already asked, becoming a clergyman did not conflict with marriage...... Wait a minute, it's none of your business, right?
So, the only question now is how to become a professional.
This Marin thinks it's relatively simple - perform better, even if those cubs in the church become professionals based on seniority, there will be a day when it will be his turn.
Besides, Marin felt that if he behaved better than anyone else, there was no way the church members would miss him.
Thinking about it like this, Marin felt even more fine.
At the same time, there is no problem with his wallet - the spider mother sold nearly 675 Wimos all over her body, and the ghoul sold 80 Wimos, counting the previous deposits, Marin is now also a rich man with 1500 yuan in his hand, although it is not as rich as the wealthy businessman and the richer noble, but at least it makes Maya very satisfied - this girl has money, and she no longer has to worry about eating the last meal or not the next, and she has not even bitten her tail recently.
By the way, Marin also heard that as long as there is money, titles from earls and below can be bought.
So, in this damn world, you can really do whatever you want if you have money.
Of course, Marin is not surprised by this - after all, this kind of 'collapse of etiquette' is not unseen in 5,000 years.
………………
Marin's pleasure lasted for about a week, and then he was hurt by the fact - 1,500 yuan is indeed a huge amount of money from the perspective of ordinary people, especially for small citizens, life is a little worse, this 1,500 yuan is enough for them to buy a cemetery enough to live in until the end of civilization when they are old...... Of course, the premise of this pension is to live to the average person with braids.
But for professionals, 1500 yuan is just a blink of an eye.
The reason why he knew this was because when he went to talk to Margaret and helped Colin deliver a bouquet of flowers, he unexpectedly saw a deal - a demon hunter came to the church to buy advanced potion materials, he was going to go to Ladder 5, and a Stone Heart Sparrow Heart would cost 4000 Mowis.
The Demon Hunter and the Church of the Gods have some incense smoke, so even if there is a premium, it will not be increased too much, so there is no such thing as an inflated price, but even so, the little money in Marin's hand can only buy half a heart, and he needs to give a 25% discount.
This made Marin feel for the first time in the most intuitive way how straightforward Colin's sentence 'new lessons teach you how to make a lot of money, and it is also the foundation of how you can become stronger'.
I also understood how thrilling it was for the old Ferrero Mentor to point to the heart of the Highland Griffin and say, "If you go down with this knife, if you deviate from the thickness of two hairs, you will be able to lose 3,000 pieces."
Even the ghouls, who were ugly and useless in Marin's eyes before, have become a little more eyebrow-raising because of this.
After all, as long as the heart is dug out, it is worth 80 Movis existence.
Then Marlin found out that he didn't have a demon hunting license, and unless Colin took him out, no one would have assigned him a mission at all.
…… It's not right, kill a few little spiders, and drive some arthropod larvae to work will be given to Marin, but arthropod larvae are not worth much, a subsidy of 30 yuan for a drive away task, 5 yuan for ten ordinary bullets in a box, the first time Marlin hit seventy-five bullets, and lost seven and a half yuan, and when he did the task for the second time, Marlin didn't even want to use bullets, so he picked up the stone stick and smashed it.
So the bitter master's house suffered, and Marin was like a humanoid destruction machine, and everything - furniture, spirits, and pets - was equal in front of the trajectory of the stone rod.
So after each expulsion mission is completed, Marlin earns pure profits, and how do the sufferers clean the stumps of arthropod larvae and mucus-contaminated furniture, how to deal with smashed wardrobes, how to deal with pets that are injured by joints, and how to deal with vases that can't be put together...... It's not Marlin's business.
Of course, Marin didn't think about whether he would be complained about if he did so, but after smashing a few houses, he found that no one had complained at all - everyone knows how terrible spirits are, and if there was a choice between not killing them and not smashing the furniture, no one would choose the former at all.
One might ask why.
Marin can make a bold assumption that the former has long been proven wrong by history because of their choice.
The whole family is dead, how can there be descendants to repeat such a mistake.
At the same time, once again, the last two of the five words to stupidize yourself are never an adjective in this damn world, but a standard verb.
And Marlin's behavior is also considered a kind of practice - using firearms to solve battles is naturally safer than using melee weapons, Marlin's several combat records quickly became a learning object for his peers, and mentors always like to use Marlin as an example when they roar at senior students who are about to move.
I heard that your hair has grown? Can you use a stone stick to drive away arthropod spirits? Basically, there are no senior students who can choke back, after all, the tutors are already master-level skills when they look at the cubs.
But the problem is that apart from Marin, there are not many peers who can swing the stone stick so quickly and lethally, and those few frost giant apprentices are no problem, but they also have weaknesses - every time he does it, Marin puts on a blessing system technique for himself, and then curses the system and the plastic energy system technique don't want to throw money around, just those few big guys, their brains are not enough at all.
And because of the good food, good sleep and good exercise in the last half a year, Marlin's strength has recently strengthened a lot, according to Colin's test, it is currently 7, and the last blessing went directly to 10.
7 points of strength are all strong men in the adult human world, and the 10 points of power with blessings on Marin, a ten-year-old child, are really all kinds of anti-heaven performances.
The limit of the strength of mortals and even ladder 10 is probably like this.
And when summer passed, and autumn was approaching, Marin also saw the first festival after he came into this world.
Harvest Festival, the festival of the head of the Church of the Earth Goddess.
