Advent Chapter 6: A Promise of Promotion

The Oak Tavern, the busiest part of Mission East, is where many people spend more time than they do in their own houses. Men only need to have alcohol, and many people who think this way spend countless hours and a lot of points here.

Not everyone has a sense of urgency like Ye Xiao, because everything is developing in a smooth and orderly manner, the mental power is growing significantly, and the task can always be completed without danger, if it continues like this, it will not be long before you can become a formal magician, since the difference between one hour of meditation and two hours is not very big, so why waste so much time on boring meditation exercises? However, Ye Xiao didn't think so.

There was always a sense of urgency, a faint uneasiness, as if there was a pair of extremely vicious eyes hiding in the shadows, with some kind of malicious smile, secretly carrying out its plot.

Ye Xiao was tormented by this kind of restlessness, and could only meditate desperately to increase his strength, the stubbornness in his bones and his dissatisfaction with the status quo produced a strong motivation, since there is not much difference between one hour of meditation and two, then try three hours, it's not enough! Then challenge the limit before the apprenticeship - four hours!

Most efforts don't pay off in the short term, but as long as you stick to them, the rewards of those efforts will certainly come to you in a way that is much longer than the most whimsical expectations and much earlier than the most bleak assumptions.

Obviously, Ye Xiao has clearly realized the reward of hard work, and the feeling of spiritual power expansion is becoming more and more obvious, and he believes that he will soon be able to step into the realm of a low-level magic apprentice.

At that point, you can try to lay out the magic traps, and the measurement of the data is almost complete anyway. Ye Xiao pushed open the wooden door of the Oak Tavern and strode in.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"What?"

"When the Sith were on a mission, they got a large piece of metal crystal from the belly of the Firefang Porcupine, which was exchanged for 5,000 points. ”

"How can I not know, I also heard that this matter was later known by Apaul, and the Sith and they lost 3,000 points at once, I really don't know whether to say that they are unlucky or lucky. ”

Of course, it was unlucky, and none of the people who were noticed by Apaul had a good end. ”

"Again, it's still as good as us, and there is neither the life of fortune nor the bad luck. After a few years of becoming a full-fledged magician, we can go back in style. ”

"yes. ”

Two people who are full of risk-free visions for the future are silent together, as if they are caught in the imagination of an infinitely better future.

Ye Xiao walked around the table of the two people and walked straight towards a table in the corner.

"Captain, what do you say? The bearded man asked with a sad face.

"As I see it, do as he asks. Luthor said cautiously.

"How can we do that! We won't be able to earn 3,000 points a month, and if we turn in another 2,000 points a month to Yapaul, we won't get anything at all. The bearded man and another bald man were unanimously opposed.

"That's it, let's just do it for nothing this time, and leave our remaining points this time, just a month's share, just ......" Sith paused, supported his chin with his hand and continued: "Ye Xiao is a little hard to say, originally according to the agreement, in addition to the points of the task itself, he can also get 500 points......"

"You don't need to explain it to him, just tell the truth, just dig a few traps and lure the prey over. Luther's tone rose significantly, and he said impatiently: "Who can't do this kind of trivial thing, there is no value of a point at all, if there is no captain and your poisoned arrow, he can deal with the fire-toothed porcupine?"

"Anyway, Ye Xiao has contributed a lot to us, and we should always give him some compensation. Sith leaned back in his chair a little relaxed, as if thinking about a compensation plan.

"Don't think about it so much, this kind of insignificant guy, we won't need him anytime soon. Luthor looked triumphant, and after successfully attracting everyone's attention, he slowly continued, "Because I'm about to become a junior magic apprentice." ”

"In just a week, I'll be able to become a junior magic apprentice. Luthor raised a finger, lifted his chin, and said with a proud expression.

The bearded man and the bald man were stunned for a moment, they didn't know what thoughts were turning in their minds and didn't speak, and their expressions kept changing from joy to sorrow.

"It's almost three months, which is about the same time as my promotion, and now it's okay, with two junior magic apprentices, it will be much easier to earn points in the future. Heathstone paused, and then continued quietly: "However, at this stage, strong physical fitness and mental strength can exert the strongest combat power, and how long will it take for you to strengthen to a low-level warrior Luther." ”

"This ......" Luthor was a little speechless, because tempering the body has always been much harder than meditation cultivation, and I don't know if it's because of the special environment, most people will improve their mental power even if they don't meditate, so most people's mental power is higher than their physical fitness, and Luthor is of course no exception, and because he often mixes in bars, he has no habit of exercising for a long time, and the effect of irregular and intermittent exercise is completely limited, so now he is still a big part away from the lower-level warriors, and Luthor doesn't know what to say。

"Hey, Ye Xiao, are you here?" said Sith suddenly turning his head to the side and said with some surprise.

Several other people also hurriedly turned sideways, and suddenly saw Ye Xiao who was slowly walking towards this side.

Sitting down against the corner of the table, Ye Xiao beckoned the waiter who worked part-time here and ordered a large glass of signature oak wine.

"It's really strange, the good children of our team have also started drinking, with the consent of their parents?" The sarcastic voice of yin and yang sounded, but Ye Xiao habitually ignored it.

"I'm going to quit the team. Ye Xiaoyan took a sip of wine and directly stated the purpose of the trip.

Sith glanced at Ye Xiao and found that he was staring intently at the bubbles in the oak wine, and he muttered for a moment before clearing his throat and saying, "Yes, but all the proceeds from your last mission will be deducted as the processing fee for the point card." ”

"Okay, I'm fine. Pouring a whole glass of oak wine into his mouth in one go, Ye Xiao stood up with the table propped up.

"Well, then, good luck and goodbye. "The so-called good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles, the Sith they were forcibly charged 3000 points, Ye Xiao heard others say it as soon as he returned, although he knew that his share must be hopeless, but Ye Xiao, who made a windfall, didn't take that point in his eyes at all, so even if the point card worth only 50 points was deducted 560 points, Ye Xiao did not raise any objections.

"Well, the pesky is finally gone. Luthor said something in a strange tone, staring at Ye Xiao's back with his head poked sideways, with a look of reluctance to give up.

As if he was aware of it, Ye Xiao, who was bathed in the sunlight when he pushed open the door of the tavern, suddenly turned to look into Luther's eyes, and smiled meaningfully, his neat white teeth faced the sun, but it seemed to flicker with an eerie cold light, and Luther's heart suddenly chilled when he saw it.

The golden sun is high in the round sky, and the afternoon sun has a bright yellow full of texture.

Ye Xiao stretched lazily, and took a nap in the afternoon to sweep away the tiredness caused by the non-stop calculation in the morning.

"Bang la-la-" The wind was blowing from afar, and the sound of the green branches shaking produced a feeling of coolness, Ye Xiao got up from the recliner and walked to the edge of the wooden balcony, closing his eyes to feel the breeze that was about to hit.

The tips of his hair swayed slightly, and a cool wind stroked Ye Xiao's cheeks, and then he also felt this comfortable coolness through the skin of thin clothing, and a layer of fine goosebumps appeared all over his body, Ye Xiao shivered comfortably, and the moment he opened his eyes, the world seemed to become much clearer.

He took out a few thin pieces of parchment full of complex lines and Arabic numerals from his arms, took out two and stacked them together, and Ye Xiao, who squinted at the sun for a while, showed a relieved smile.

Seven days have passed since he broke away from the Sith team, and in these seven days, Ye Xiao has been hiding in his tree house without leaving home, constantly calculating and measuring the data of the primary magic trap array, although Ye Xiao's mathematical and physical results have always been bad, but fortunately, the restoration of the magic trap array in the magic apprentice stage does not require any advanced mathematical knowledge, coupled with the grim situation, the previously forgotten knowledge has also been gradually recalled in this environment, so after a few days of busyness, Ye Xiao finally completed all the data measurement calculations this morning。

After seven consecutive days of non-stop measurement and calculation, coupled with daily non-stop meditation exercises, the exhausted Ye Xiao fell asleep directly on the recliner on the balcony after completing the measurement and calculation of the last curve.

Ye Xiao, who woke up, only felt indescribably comfortable all over his body, and his body was light as if he could take off in the air.

At this moment, Ye Xiao's temples suddenly beat rhythmically, and the surrounding scenery also fluctuated like ripples like water waves.

Ye Xiao felt that his vision suddenly expanded and contracted, and the sounds around him seemed to come from a layer of water, with an ethereal and strange sense of echo.

The abnormality seemed to have lasted for a long time, and it seemed to be over in a very short time, and when everything returned to normal, Ye Xiao still seemed to have a strange feeling of dizziness.

Ye Xiao stood still in place, as if he was reminiscing about the strange feeling of being real and illusory in a dream just now.

"A promotion omen. Ye Xiao, who closed his eyes tightly, gently spit out these four words, as if he was afraid of ruining the feeling just now.

This is really a blessing and a good thing, Ye Xiao, who had just completed the measurement and calculation of the magic trap array, immediately felt the omen of promotion, and became a low-level magic apprentice, using the perfect magic trap to hunt and kill demonic beasts, and the plan to earn a large number of points could be realized immediately.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao, who was standing still, opened his eyes, as if a light flashed in his eyes.
