Chapter 31: Parting
The scorching summer has passed, the weather in the morning and evening has gradually cooled down, Liu Li has always been more curious about the weather in this world, after all, the world is flat, but the four seasons are like the earth repeatedly, it is really incredible.
"Will, have you come to see Liu Li's training?" On the training ground of the City Guard, Kuhn looked at Wells with a smile on his face, but even the smile on his face gave people an indescribable horror. "I really don't know where you got your good luck, you actually found a good seedling like Liu Li, let me tell you, if it weren't for him being your student, I would definitely let him give up magic and practice martial arts with me." ”
"yes, I didn't expect that the little guy I rescued in the southern forest three years ago would have such a good talent. Wells said proudly: "Those fools in the imperial capital also said that I can't teach students, and when I have the opportunity in the future, I must take Liu Li back to the imperial capital and slap him in the face." ”
Martial arts are not only the skills of attacking opponents with the weapons in their hands, what Liu Li is training today is to integrate the power of martial arts into his footwork, which is also the key to the fact that martial artists are usually more flexible than spellcasters. The three primary martial arts of "Shock", "Heavy", and "Penetration" can not only make the attack more powerful, but in terms of body technique, these three primary martial arts can also play an amazing role. Recalling the previous battle with Wells, Liu Li eventually lost because he didn't have enough explosive speed because he hadn't learned this technique at that time. If you can skillfully integrate the beginner martial arts into your body, although you can't reach the level of wandering around in the sky magic, you can still rely on the explosive speed to break out of the enveloping range of the spell.
"How about it, do you want to go to Karen for a drink or two in a while?" Looking at Liu Li in the training ground, Wells, who was in a good mood, proposed.
"Aren't you drunkards just trying to get some more spider wine from Cullen, and use me less as a shield. Kuhn was also speechless about Wells's preferences, he had never seen a second mage so heavy on alcohol, "Alcohol is forbidden in the barracks, you should be careful." ”
......
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and Wells and Heng were preparing to leave. In this week, Liu Li has practiced against Wells more than once, although he has never won a victory, but looking at the expression on Wells's face, Liu Li knows that if he can always maintain his current combat state, after his cultivation reaches the third order, Wells will definitely not stop him from going to the front line. Although Wells and Heng are more regretful about not being able to watch Liu Li's final assessment, they don't have much to worry about, with Liu Li's current strength, it is strange that they can't pass the assessment.
"Then I'll go first, you ...... Alas, although I want to say that you will not use it, I guess you will not listen. In the teleportation hall of the Academy of Magic, Wells was saying goodbye to Liu Li and the others, "Anyway, Heng, don't you really need me to send you to the Elven Forest, the teleportation is very fast, even if you send you over, it won't delay me much." ”
"Thank you, you are busy first, don't worry about me, I'm fine, really!" Every time he talked about the topic of teleportation, Heng was no longer as indifferent as before, and he knew from her pale face that this elf was not so dizzy that it was not ordinarily serious.
"Alright, Will, stop making a fuss. Ever since he learned about the Constant Halo Teleportation, Wells had always teased her from time to time. Liu Li suddenly remembered that when he was in Casfield City before, he often teased Li'er like this, and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that compared to the battlefield, the old money fan still likes to drink with the mercenaries in the tavern of Casfield." Seeing the figure of Old Wells disappear in front of him with the dissipation of the light of the teleportation array, Liu Li was reluctant but helpless, which also strengthened his determination to become stronger quickly.
"Liu Li, it's time for me to go. Looking at Liu Li beside him in a daze, although Heng couldn't bear to disturb, he finally spoke. Rejecting Wells' offer, she had to take a carriage back to the Elven Forest, which was not very time-sparing. Although she really wants to stay here and accompany Liu Li more, as a priest of life, she also has her own responsibilities.
After returning to the villa with Landolia, Liu Li felt as if there was an empty piece in her heart. These days, due to the arrival of old Wells, I have been in a good mood. And now not only his teacher is going to the dangerous battlefield, but even the elves who have been with him all the time have left, making him feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Okay, be happy, it's not like you won't see you again. Looking at Liu Li's current state, Landolia couldn't help but feel irritated in her heart. For Wells's departure, there is nothing more worried than her, the west is not a peaceful place, although the war cannot be fought for a while, but a small area of friction is indispensable. "It just so happens that you have already studied the use of beginner martial arts, and when the academy assessment is over, I have a task to hand over to you. ”
In fact, Landolia was also a little hesitant when she made this decision, and she didn't know whether she should help Liu Li improve her strength as soon as possible. If Liu Lixiu reached the third order or above at the beginning of the war and took him to the battlefield, even if he and Wells were watching, it would inevitably be an accident, no matter how it was a battlefield. But if Liu Li hadn't been promoted for a long time, it would be impossible for him to really leave him here alone to meet Wells. "The mission will be a little dangerous, but it will still have a lot of benefits for the improvement of your strength, as for whether you want to go or not, the decision is in your hands. ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Landuo, I won't give up any opportunity to improve my strength. Liu Li could probably guess Landolia's entanglement, and her heart was also moved.
Feeling that his current state was really not suitable for cultivation, Liu Li decided to go out for a walk and see the little Lori he hadn't seen for a long time.
To the northwest of the Academy, next to the city of Eleno, there was an area where the nobles of the empire generally owned a villa of their own. Mage is a more expensive combat job, whether it is the cost of storage equipment or spell casting materials, compared to a warrior who can go out to fight the world with a leather armor and a weapon, the consumption of gold coins is not the same. There are many buried commoners who cast spells, and nobles with a talent for magic cultivation are often sent to the academy by their families to study. This villa area next to the city of Eleno is for these noble students. There are so many kids like Wendy and Dylan who are sent to the academy at a young age that it can be extremely difficult to expect them to take care of themselves.
I have to say that the aristocracy is really a group of people who can enjoy it, maybe it is really because they have no worries about food and clothing that they will have more pursuits, at least in terms of environment, this villa area is much better than the dormitory provided by the college.
"Ah, Liu Li, I heard that you have been promoted to the first intermediate level, congratulations. Teresa greeted Liu Li with a smile, but the next sentence shattered Liu Li's slightly depressed mood, so that Liu Li really didn't know whether to thank her, "By the way, have you finally recognized your identity as Lolita and are planning to attack my young lady?"
Even though he knew that the other party made fun because he saw that he was depressed, hoping to relax himself, this way still made Liu Li almost squirt out a mouthful of old blood. Besides, what maid can joke about her little master like this, Liu Li don't say it, she hasn't even heard of it.
In the past half a year, Liu Li has come here a lot of times, and although most of his thoughts are focused on cultivation, there will always be some leisure time. And he didn't have many acquaintances in Eleno City, and he wanted to repay them for their help on the way to Eleno City, so when he had free time, he often came here to explain some spell casting skills to Wendy and Dylan.
"That, Teresa, does your master really not mind you making fun of Wendy like this?" Liu Li has been holding this question in her heart for a long time, looking at Teresa's habit, it is definitely not something that can be formed in a short time.
"Oh, thank you for your concern, in fact, my lord has been teased by me more often, so you don't need to worry about me at all. Looking at Teresa's proud expression, he knew that this sentence was not false, and Liu Li was also speechless for a while, how much Count Fillion's heart could withstand such a maid.
However, Liu Li also knows that Teresa is not an ordinary maid, as for the ability she mentioned as a bodyguard before, it was not until recently that Liu Li had a clearer understanding. She is a martial artist, and through more and more in-depth study in martial arts, Liu Li can also feel her unfathomable more and more. At least as a first-order mid-level spellcaster, he couldn't pose a threat to her at all.
"Teresa, is Liu Li's little brother here?" Maybe it was because she had been at the door for too long, and the little Lori who was locked in the room by Teresa reading a book finally couldn't bear it anymore and ran out. "Now, you don't have to read a book, right?" Wendy's big shining eyes and a pitiful expression were just trying to achieve the goal of not continuing to read, which was really funny. Liu Li and Teresa glanced at each other, and they both smiled, "Okay, you can have a holiday today, but let's not take it as an example." ”
Liu Li walked into the villa amid the cheers of little Lori, and the gloom in her heart was also reduced a lot. "Where's Dylan?" Liu Li asked suspiciously, not seeing the shy little boy.
"Master Dylan's class is not over yet, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back until later. It was Teresa who answered, and as she spoke, she didn't stop in her hands, and poured a cup of black tea for Liu Li and Wendy very skillfully, and then stood quietly beside Little Lori.
"Don't say it, Teresa, if you don't speak, you really look like a professional maid. Gently picking up the cup of black tea that exuded a rich fragrance in front of him, Liu Li couldn't help but laugh. Of course, he would never admit that this was revenge for the conversation at the door.
When Liu Li decided to leave and go back to Villa Landolia, the sun was already setting. An afternoon of conversation diluted the gloom in my heart. "Hopefully it's an interesting task. Recalling what Landolia had said before she left, Liu Li also had a hint of anticipation for the "mission" in her mouth. However, at this moment, he would never have imagined that this mission would be a huge change for him.
