Chapter III: Agreements
"What?!Xiao Er!You actually practiced to become an iron mountain avalanche?!You actually broke through the first-order entrance?!You ......" The tall Lu Boyan's voice trembled with excitement!
gasping for breath, Lu Xiao's tears fell.
It was the final blow, the one he had already planned, but ...... Failed.
From the beginning of the battle, Lu Xiao already knew that if he relied on his own strength, he would be foolish even if he wanted to make him shake his father!
On the Mayan continent, Su Shi who cultivated the power of the elements, every time they broke through the first-order entrance, the improvement of their ability could be said to increase exponentially, because each level of the entrance implied nine stars, although many Su Shi had already reached the nine stars, but they were unable to cross the dragon gate for a long time, because once they failed to rush through the level, they were likely to fall directly to the bottom and become one star.
The huge psychological pressure makes every passer tremble, and the difficulty of cultivation can be imagined, and if the level is successful, the improvement of ability will bring earth-shaking changes.
Today's father has already broken through the seventh-order entrance, assuming that his father's ability is an elephant, then his Lu Xiao's ability can be compared to an ant, or even an ant.
Only by taking the initiative to show weakness and making his father make a big mistake by underestimating the enemy too much at a moment, can he find the dawn of victory in the slightest crack.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Lu Xiao was deliberately conserving his physical strength, and hid his killer iron landslide deeply, otherwise once his father found a clue, the earth protector and the earth shield would be summoned out, and at that time, he said that he wanted his father to move half a minute, that is, he wanted to get close to his father's body It became a luxury!
He carried out everything so successfully that he threw off his backpack and cloak without any flaws, and while slowly approaching his father, he secretly hid his right hand behind his back, and with the help of his body and dark disguise, he delivered a terrifying blow.
However, under the huge gap in strength between the two, this seamless plan was still in vain.
Tears of pain flowed down his cheeks, and the boy who stood in a daze let the wind and rain blow mercilessly, full of despair and helplessness.
A pair of big hands slowly moved to the top of Lu Xiao's head, gently stroking, containing love and warmth, and the clear midrange like silver sounded low: "Xiao'er, you want to help your father at such a young age, and you have made such great progress, I am really proud of you!"
Leaning down and wiping away the tears on Lu Xiao's face, Lu Boyan's voice was extremely soft: "Xiao'er, maybe you don't understand, the outside world is so dangerous, even if it's a cultivator like my father, you can protect yourself, let alone you, a fledgling teenager." ”
"But father, I'm still young, I haven't grown up yet, I can't handle it alone without you!"
The immature children's voice sounded faintly, accompanied by a deliberately suppressed chok, which was heartbreaking in the middle of the stormy night!
Pulling up Lu Xiao's arm, Lu Boyan's voice was cold and firm: "Xiao'er, father believes that there is no difficulty in knocking down the heirs of the Chocobo family, father is like this, and so are you!"
The young man in the wind and rain raised his arm and wiped his eyes, involuntarily straightened his body, and the heroism in his heart spontaneously emerged.
"Xiao'er, you kneel!"
The alto, as clear as silver, sounded again, solemn and solemn.
Lu Boyan forcefully removed the ring of his left hand and squeezed it tightly between his fingers.
Kneeling down in front of his father and watching him slowly put the patriarch's ring on his thumb, Lu Xiao's blood boiled for a while.
"Xiao'er, you remember, you must protect her, this is a relic of the Chocobo family, a symbol of the family inheritance, and a symbol of the patriarch's identity, now that my father has entrusted her to you, please don't let my father down. ”
Shaking his son's shoulders vigorously, Lu Boyan's words were full of deep expectation.
"Father, don't worry, your son will not disgrace you!"
Lu Xiao's answer was full of confidence!
"Okay! Since Xiao'er is so confident, then my father still wants to make an agreement with you, but I don't know if you dare to agree. Lu Boyan deliberately added a hint of provocation to his words.
"That...... It depends on what the agreement is, if it ......" Lu Xiao swallowed for a while.
"Hmph, you shrewd ghost, you really don't lose anything, but my father can promise that once I say this agreement, you will be eager to try, lest your father regret it. ”
As he spoke, Lu Boyan took out an object from his arms, it was an earthy yellow jade plate, and a faint halo lingered on it, which did not look like an ordinary thing.
"Xiao'er, my father originally wanted to give this jade plate to your Uncle Lu Xiguan for safekeeping, and instructed him to hand it over to you at the appropriate time, but to my father's surprise, your performance was so good, so my father has now decided to personally hand her over to you. ”
Looking at the jade card in his father's hand, Lu Xiao stretched out his hand and scratched the top of his head, looking confused, not knowing how this thing was related to the agreement.
"Xiao'er, you should know a secret that everyone in the Chocobo family is eager to know, a secret to the path to the strong. Lu Boyan deliberately lowered his voice.
"Thor Temple!" Lu Xiao let out an exclamation, his excited little face flushed.
The Temple of Thor, which is the temple that everyone in the Chocobo family aspires to find, is said to be the residence of the family relic, Thor the Chocobo.
Chocobo Sol is the guardian beast of the earth elemental envoy - the king of the earth Lu Fengtian, with powerful elemental power and extremely high wisdom, and at the same time, because of the unknown fate of the king of the earth Lu Fengtian, many cheats and treasures of the chocobo family have also disappeared with the disappearance of this peerless powerhouse.
And these cheats and treasures are very likely to be hidden inside the Temple of Thor, and the most alluring thing is an earth elemental star.
The Earth Elemental Star, in the Mayan Continent and even in the entire Star World, is only one worthy of it, it is a divine object that all the Sushi who temper the origin of the elements dream of, it can not only greatly accelerate the speed of cultivation, but also increase the success rate of breaking through the entrance by multiples, and moreover, for an elemental master who has broken through the seventh-order entrance, the role of the Earth Elemental Star is particularly important.
Because every time the elemental entrance breaks through the first order, the difficulty of the next level increases sharply, and after reaching the seventh order, it is even more difficult to improve by one star, without the assistance of the earth element star, it is simply a fool's dream to continue cultivating to reach the eighth order.
"Xiao Er, this jade plate hides many secrets of the Thor Temple, but her father has kept her for so many years, and she only has a little experience, but she can't thoroughly understand it, and now she ......"
Slowly moving the jade plate to Lu Xiao's eyes, Lu Boyan's eyes were full of deep entrustment: "Xiao'er, my father wants to make an agreement with you: to help my father understand the secret of the jade plate and find the Sol Temple!"
"Okay! I'll make an appointment!" the young man's answer was sonorous and powerful, and his clenched little fists moved up quickly, full of confidence!
"Xiao'er, don't promise too quickly, if you want to make an appointment, it's too early. Lu Boyan gently patted his son's shoulder, and his face was slightly dark.
"Why?!" the childish little face quickly raised, and there was a hint of disdain hidden between the eyebrows.
"Because, you are only eligible to accept the contract after you have successfully broken through the third-order entrance and reached the age of sixteen, which is the minimum condition for opening the Thor Temple. Lu Boyan said helplessly.
"How can I wait so long?!Father, aren't you coming back......" Before the words fell, the young man's tears were already rolling in his eyes.
Holding his son's shoulders with both hands, Lu Boyan's voice suddenly became extremely hoarse: "Lu Xiao! Father understands that you are going to face extremely difficult suffering...... But...... Your mother's situation is even more dangerous, and there is no way that human society can tolerate a single elf......"
"Elf?!Is Mom an Elf?!It turns out that those memories I have left are true?!I am really an elf child!" Lu Xiaomu stood still.
Slowly put the jade plate into Lu Xiao's arms, and then clasped his son's arms fiercely, Lu Boyan turned his body with difficulty, this moment of parting from life and death, is it the final confession? !
Looking at his father's faintly trembling shoulders, Lu Xiao bit his lip tightly, then straightened his thin body, faced the tall figure, and said sonorously: "Father, you go! Remember, you must take care of your mother, don't worry about me, I can take care of myself, I can!"
struggled to endure the strong choking, but his eyes were already covered with tears.
Through his hazy eyes, watching the familiar back leave step by step, Lu Xiao clenched his fists: "Father, I will definitely fulfill our agreement!"
Time flies, three years have passed, and the former teenagers have endured hardships and survived the coldest winter.
The young eagle is finally about to stretch out its wings that are about to plump and soar into the sky!
