"You two little things, are you stupid with your brains... With such a heavy rain, I should wait for the rain to stop before going up the mountain. The old man looked at the two soup chickens in front of him, and couldn't help but start to suspect that he was looking for two Hanhan.

Chen Yuan and Apollo, who were covered in mud and water, stood in front of the door of the wooden house where the old man lived, blocked by the eaves, but they would not be caught by the gradually decreasing rain.

However, the two of them were soaked at this time, not to mention, their weak physique gradually developed problems under the invasion of the torrential rain, as long as it was a while and a half, a high fever would definitely follow.

'Wood Spirit Blessing'

The green light flashed on the two of them, and the originally groggy minds instantly sobered up, and the cold bodies no longer trembled.

"Come in first, roast the fire to warm your body."

Chen Yuan took off his muddy boots and put them in the doorway and walked into the hut, followed by Apollo barefoot.

"Take off your clothes first, and put them here to dry. I'll be wearing these two sets of clothes for the time being, though they're much bigger for you. ”

Chen Yuan was very cooperative, took off his clothes and put them on the fire, wearing clothes that should be the old man's youth, and the oversized model made the two forest elf little farts with wet hair look very funny.

"While the black tea is hot, although the 'Wood Spirit Blessing' has restored some of your physical weakness, your state is not suitable for other things now. Let's sit down and talk about what's next. ”

The old man put the black tea on the table, removed the chair and sat down.

Although they didn't say it explicitly, since Chen Yuan and Apollo knew why the old man asked them to come up to him and sit here now, they naturally knew what the old man said about what happened next.

To put it mildly, Chen Yuan's body and Apollo at this time both belong to the bottom of the forest elf clan.

Physically, talentedly, and consciously, they are far inferior to their peers.

The old man also had the idea of finding a way to inherit his skills without losing his skills after he threw himself into the arms of the mother tree.

The old man of the deadwood is a veteran, which has a double meaning.

First of all, in the forest elf clan, becoming an ordinary soldier often means poor talent, because of poor talent, the same age naturally can't keep up with the pace of others, and it will not be tilted to cultivate resources. No matter which race it is, it is indispensable to have stronger strength resources, and those who have less strength all the way to adulthood, such as the old man of Deadwood, when he is young, can only throw himself into the ordinary army to seek a way out.

Secondly, as an ordinary soldier who has survived two full battles of the meat grinder, the old man of the dead wood must have extraordinary strength in some aspects, at least on the way to the strong with ordinary people, it is more than enough to teach two rookies with the experience of the old man of the dead wood.

"I used to be like you. The strength is poor, the talent is low, and no one pays attention to it, so I was not convinced for a while, so I later ran to join the Lu Lin unit of our forest elves. ”

"There, I ran into walls countless times, and I encountered countless dangers, but luckily I met my teacher, a veteran like me."

"I learned from him to find my strengths, how to find opportunities and avoid danger on the battlefield, and most importantly, to find the direction in which I will become stronger in the future."

"So I survived until the brief peace I have now. But I'm old, I don't want this inheritance to be cut off in my hands, of course, I also want you, just like my teacher helped me, I also want you to find your own way. ”

The old man slowly told his past, picked up the black tea with one hand, but froze in mid-air without moving.

Apollo was obviously immersed in the old man's past, and the original trace of admiration in his eyes deepened.

Only Chen Yuan probably heard the cruelty and reality of the past in the old man's words.

“.....”

"When people get old, they become verbose. Ahem, after lunch, you can go back and rest first. ”

"There's no rush to this day. Starting tomorrow, I will give you what I have learned, as well as some knowledge about the battlefield. ”

"Although this may be too early for you, sooner or later you will enter that cruel place."

Although the situation has calmed down a lot now, the killing on the battlefield has never stopped, but the scope and intensity have become smaller, and the clan rule in the forest elf clan is that every adult forest elf male must go to the battlefield to experience at least one year old.

In terms of human time, the forest elves are one year old, and they are three years old.

In my memory, Apollo was nineteen years old. In other words, the time left for Chen Yuan is still seven years old, that is, at least twenty-one years.

In these twenty-one years, Chen Yuan had to use the qualifications of an ordinary person to gain the power to turn the war around and change Apollo's fate.

"Grandpa Deadwood, I'll do my best!"

Apollo responded energetically after the old man finished speaking, Chen Yuan pursed his lips, according to Apollo's original trajectory, even if it was tempered for more than twenty years, Apollo still did not escape the beating of reality.

It seems that it is still up to you... Chen Yuan's brain was a little painful.

"As long as I can get stronger, I will do my best." Naturally, Chen Yuan knew that if he wanted to change his fate, he might only be able to find an opportunity to break the situation from the tempering of the old man in the future.

After a sumptuous lunch, Apollo and Chen Yuan returned to the bottom of the mountain the same way, and the old man began to prepare for teaching the two.

.....

"Eve, I can't fit it."

After sensing the remaining capacity of the space equipment, Wall said to Eve, who was not far away.

"Impossible! The number of native amethysts here is doubled, and the capacity of the 'Nine Leaves Pot' is completely fine. ”

"It should be the disturbance caused by the excessively high disorder magic element, and the space of the 'Nine Leaf Pot' has shrunk significantly after containing so many original amethysts. At most, there's enough space left to hold another barrel of ale. ”

Eve turned out the 'nine-leaf pot', and sure enough, as Wall said, the space left was only the size of a barrel of wine.

"And what about the rest of the native amethyst?"

"It looks like I can't take it away."

In an instant, Eve experienced what it means to feel heartache.

There was still more than half of the original amethyst left, as if his eyes were full of shiny soul stones beckoning to him.

The rest of the people also stopped their guys, and they were quite tired from mining and digging until now.

"That's it, this ruin has nothing of value other than the original amethyst. We can't hold more ore in our space now and should go back. ”

"Well, let's go back." Eve also gave up struggling, long pain is better than short pain, or the trial is more important.

"Well, but we shouldn't be able to go back now."

Crewe said with a sudden hand.

"For..."

As soon as Eve's question came out with a word, she instantly understood when she saw Chen Yuan, who was still asleep on the side.

"Isn't John awake yet!?" Having just been digging with all her heart, Eve didn't notice what happened after Chen Yuan at all.

"Either that, we'll choose to hang John up and carry him on our backs. Or, we can only wait here first....." Wall also had a headache, but he didn't expect that the last unexpected part was that Chen Yuan didn't wake up.

To be honest, all the women here don't count, not even any of the men can carry Chen Yuan out of a hundred meters alone, it's too heavy!

Elves are not known for their strength, not to mention the non-power classes of hunters, mages, and wanderers.

It is not possible to abandon Chen Yuan for the next trial, as long as one of the team does not reach the end point, it will be counted as the whole team did not arrive and a large amount of points will be deducted.

Although the original amethyst is precious, after all, it can only be calculated according to the third-order ore, even if all the hundreds of ores in the space equipment are handed in, there is a chance that it will be eliminated because it will not be able to enter the top ten.

"Ahh.....h Forget it, let's wait for John first, if it really doesn't work, let the stupid two take turns carrying John. ”

Having understood Eve's words, the faces of the two animal companions who were eating and grabbing on the side darkened.

Don't bring such cruelty to rare animals!

.....

The next morning, as always, I woke up early.

After Chen Yuan swallowed a large piece of butter bread and a glass of goat's milk, he hurriedly put on simple clothes and went out.

Sure enough, at the foot of the mountain, Apollo was already waiting by the road sign early.

"Let's go, Apollo."

Patting Apollo on the shoulder, Chen Yuan trotted all the way along yesterday's path.

Today's weather is exceptionally good, and Chen Yuan, who is walking on the mountain road, no longer needs to worry about the weather.

After sweating profusely, the two of them came to the door of the old dead wood again.

"Have you had an early meal?"

The old dead wood, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, suddenly spoke.

"Eat."

"I've eaten it."

"Okay, come with me."

After the old deadwood finished speaking, he walked towards the dense forest behind the house, and Chen Yuan and Apollo hurriedly followed.

After a trail, Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly widened.

A fairly wide field suddenly appeared in this space surrounded by dense forests, and in addition to some exercise tools, there were more parts mixed with wood and metal stacked in a dozen or so boxes.

"This is where you will train in the future." Old Deadwood gestured to the field in front of him.

"Because my skills are very different from those of most forest elves, I'm going to tell you what you're going to learn in the future."

"The skills I have mastered are 'gunpowder gun', 'replica trap', 'throwing weapons' and 'potion making'."

"As far as the 'path' is concerned, the path I took is called the 'Musketeer', and it is an extremely old path, and legend has it that it was created by the dwarves a long time ago, and then gradually died out among the dwarves, but a small number of elves learned it."

"Unlike 'Arrow Feather', the 'Musketeer' does not require high talent, nor does it require the ability to communicate with the natural elements to assist, and even I have only mastered two primary healing spells to deal with the situation on the battlefield."
