Chapter 22: The Encounter with the Cup
Drops of cold sweat trickled down Aaron's cheeks, and he replied, "Dear teacher, what are you talking about? Please forgive me for my stupidity, the students don't understand what you mean!"
"Really?" Roth's grim words rang out again, staring at Aaron's eyes for a moment, and then laughing, "Haha, I'm just joking with you, my dear student. Damn, you can fight three with one, aren't you still the devil?"
Roth doesn't believe Aaron's nonsense, and there is still a way to go if he wants to pretend to be crazy and stupid to deceive his consciousness. Ever since he first saw this kid from Legion Commander Tony, Roth had sensed an indescribable strangeness in him. An ordinary low-ranking officer, he had never seen anyone who occasionally exuded a trace of brutality and bloodthirsty aura on his body. Seeing that he really couldn't get valuable clues from Aaron's eyes, and he couldn't implement his plan while he was seriously injured, he could only make plans after he recovered from his injuries.
Telling Aaron to heal his wounds quickly, and after healing from his wounds, he went to his dwelling in the remote mountains to find him, and Roth left.
The evil breath and the eerie face are the impressions that Roth gave to Aaron. Coupled with the fact that his preface was a little incompatible, Aaron naturally didn't believe that he would have any good intentions towards him.
He must have something in mind for me!" But the most important thing at the moment is to recover as soon as possible. Otherwise, if something happens, you won't have any support at all. In fact, now that the injury is under control, it should heal after a few days of rest. It's just that Aaron didn't say anything about the sudden Roth, and tried his best to show that he was very weak physically and mentally in front of him. In the early morning, the branches of the green trees outside the house were covered with dew, shining like ten thousand crystal clear pearls under the rising sun. The morning breeze blew, and the branches and leaves danced, as if they were about to compete with each other.
After two days of pranayama healing, without the assistance of medicine, most of the injuries were healed by the power of blood alone, and the power of blood was even more handy. Obviously, constant fighting and tearing is very helpful in mastering and understanding the power. Thinking of what Roth said to him two days ago, Aaron felt that it would be better to go, after all, he was nominally not only his student, but also a mercenary of the mercenary group, so he would naturally become his boss. No, he was going to go, but Aaron dragged on for four more days. He didn't want Narot to admit that he had different powers, even if he explained that he was joking.
The road of innocent and guilty of his crimes, Aaron naturally understands it after his horizons and experience are broadened. After entering the house and meeting Roth, Aaron asked, "Teacher, I wonder what is the matter with you calling me here?"
"Well, it seems that the body bones are recovering well, worthy of ......" Roth suddenly remembered something, hurriedly closed his mouth and changed his words: "Haha, not bad." I'm asking you to come here this time to give you this. With a snap, there were already several books made of fine sheepskin on the large round table in front of Aaron. Roth then said, "Well, I've been observing you since I brought you into the base area, and I found that you are quite talented. These are the key points of understanding and attention of the powerhouses in the gold field at various stages, and you can take them back and study them carefully, which should help you improve your strength. ”
"Ah, thank you, teacher, the students are hitting certain bottlenecks, and these books are too timely for me. Aaron was pleasantly surprised.
However, in the ecstasy, he did not relax his vigilance against Roth, and suddenly found that Roth's face flashed with an imperceptible color. This discovery once again made Allen suspicious of Roth's move. It seems that it is very necessary for me to do some investigation on this teacher Roth, otherwise there will always be a string across my heart, which is unsettling.
"There's one more thing I want to warn you! Arun, my dear student. Roth said suddenly.
"Oh, teacher, please. ”
"Chris's grandfather, Austin, the magician I brought you to see on the first day, hates you so much that he seems to have doubts about your powers!" Roth said with a blank look.
"Oh, what should I do, do I leave Narnia and return to the province of Aquitania?" Aaron asked, taking the basic wool roll into his arms.
"No, no, no, you can't go back these days. Roth hurriedly shouted, and suddenly realized that he was out of shape, his face turned slightly red, and he calmed down: "You can't leave Narnia yet!"
"Why? Am I just staying here and causing harm?"
"The Silver Fox Legion has given us the mission of the mercenary group to make you a high-level warrior, but you should know by now that it will take a lot of time, even more than ten years. Narnia is a vast expanse with plenty of hidden gems where you can improve your power. Maybe you should go out and practice for a few years, and avoid entangling with Chris's gang here, and delaying the mission that Lord Duke has given you!" said Roth, with a nose and an eye.
"That's fine, then I'll go pack up and leave now. Aaron nodded in response.
"Wait. ”
"Huh?"
"Here are a few high-grade Chaos Crystals that you can absorb and increase your strength. As long as you understand the contents of those few wool rolls, with your qualifications, it will be a matter of time before you become a high-level warrior or mage. Haha!" "Roth took out two crystals from his arms that were obviously much higher in color and transparency than the ones he had seen before, and it seemed that they should be mid-to-upper-grade Chaos Crystals if they were not of the highest grade.
After Aaron had thanked him, he turned around and left without stopping. In his opinion, although the outside is dangerous, it is also very helpful to expand his horizons. Coupled with the devouring characteristic inherited from the Blood Monarch, it can only be fully exerted when it is outside. After all, there are too many inconveniences here.
The moment Aaron stepped out of the threshold, a strand as thin as a strand of hair appeared in the void, landed on Aaron's body and quickly disappeared. At the same time, Aaron suddenly felt a slight tremor in the depths of his soul, but it was only a fleeting moment, so he didn't care about it and left Roth's residence in the back mountain.
"Hey boy, do you think you can just walk away with my favor, as long as you're in the mountains of Narnia, you can't escape my palm!"
Soul Connection, a type of magic commonly used by necromancers. It is used for soul-to-soul connection, and can also be one-way connection. However, due to Roth's own strength, the soul connection under Alembu can only know where he is and has a certain range.
In the months since leaving the Yew Mercenaries, Aaron has been haunting the Narnia neighborhood. On the one hand, he wants to consolidate his current rank and find out about the situation of other armed forces in Narnia. On the other hand, it was also because of this period of time that he discovered that this Narnia was extremely dangerous, and murder and treasure were often staged in remote places. With his current strength, although people may not be able to look at him and think about it, he is not allowed to be killed after encountering someone who has seized the treasure.
Most of the parchment books given by Roth were cultivation experience at the high level and above the Golden Realm, and it was still too early to look at that thing with Aaron's current strength level. There are also some annotations for the intermediate level, but they are only mentioned in passing, and there is no systematic information. Obviously, this is too difficult for Aaron, whose cultural level needs to be improved.
Aaron had always wanted to sneak up on a few warriors or mages who had been badly wounded in the battle in order to devour their power. But it backfired, and after a few months, nothing was gained. Those who were seriously injured were either in groups or strong people, and they simply couldn't allow themselves to peep at a fourth-level intermediate level.
On this day, Aaron, who was walking aimlessly in the ravines of the mountain streams, came to the edge of a lake. Just as he was about to sit down and put his feet in the cool water of the lake to wet his feet, suddenly a ripple appeared on the surface of the lake not far ahead, and then a young girl came out of the water.
With a bang, Aaron's soul seemed to be smashed by something, and his expression fell into a moment of trance: his smooth and fair face revealed a trace of cold arrogance under the clear water chestnut distinction, his dark and deep eyes were filled with charming colors, and when he shook his long hair, he looked forward to an elegant and noble temperament, which made Aaron take a picture of it, and he was ashamed of his appearance and did not dare to blaspheme. But those cold and arrogant eyes have a seductive state, which makes people can't help but be haunted.
What a picture of a beautiful woman coming out of the bath! Arendon felt an impulsive heat, and subconsciously wanted to swim forward to do something. Suddenly, Aaron woke up to Narnia, and anyone who practiced here could be a stronger figure than himself.
Ah, under the power of blood, he couldn't even get a glimpse of her strength level! Shocked, Alun secretly screamed in his heart. Sitting by the lake so abruptly and unscrupulously watching a naked woman bathing dozens of meters away, it is needless to say how serious the consequences are.
Flash!
This was the fastest thought that crossed Aaron's mind.
Just as he wanted to escape the scene while the mysterious woman hadn't found out, a coquettish voice came from behind him: "Bah, the thief is looking for death!" The woman's mind moved, and a bright white light shot out and flew straight to Aaron.
However, although she was found to be angry and scolded, the woman's voice still felt pleasant to Aaron's ears, as if it was a divine voice.
Just from the fluctuations from the white light that swept from behind, Aaron knew that he had met the strongest person since leaving the base, and this person was actually a woman.
