Chapter 1: The Power of the Fountain
Very lucky, Zhang Long practiced with Ricksat for almost the whole day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Playing against the champion really benefited a lot, and after the devilish tempering, Zhang Long's self-realized combat concept of "defensive counterattack against defensive counterattack" has been comprehensively improved. By the time the sun went down, he could already battle the champion for four or five rounds. Kaisong also greatly appreciated this tactic, and at the end of the day's training, he patted Zhang Long on the shoulder very excitedly and said, "Very good, boy, I didn't mistake you in the first place. Make good use of your ideas, and sooner or later you will achieve great things!"
Zhang Long listened to it in his heart: this is something he couldn't think of before the crossing, in the past, he was completely an ant, struggling at the bottom of the school and even society, and almost never received praise and praise. Since he can remember, whether it is his parents, elders, teachers, classmates, colleagues, or leaders, their attitudes towards him are either disappointed, disdainful, or even simply wanton scolding. Therefore, although this crossing did not immediately bring him any domineering energy, it at least made him feel hope and the meaning of life.
Perhaps, I am so obsessed with the Diablo series of games that I am waiting for this day, right?
At dinner time, Haishan was taken away by the poker-faced family again. Zhang Long and Fei Quma, a pair of black-eyed and blue-eyed brothers, buried their heads in nibbling on delicious corned beef, chatting while eating.
"Zhang Long, how can you say Kaisong is so powerful?" Fei Quma said with some envy, "Each faction knows so well, and after guiding me a few words, the level has improved so quickly!"
Yes, Fechma was now able to predict Grentis's movements and was not so powerless against the nets. In the afternoon, he even accurately pulled the fishing net and dragged Grentis down, if it weren't for the fact that guy was experienced and immediately abandoned the net and swung his knife to relieve the siege, he would definitely be pressed to the ground by Fecma and beaten out of anger!
"Yes, yes, otherwise how can you be our coach?" Zhang Long replied vaguely, chewing on his food. After training for so long, he also heard about Kaison's glorious past achievements: at one time, their instructor was also a gladiator of the Maxim family, and he practiced a very rare and rare faction: the "all-rounder".
As the name suggests, all-around gladiators have mastered the fighting methods of almost every faction, and when it comes to fighting, they tend to be extremely talented and highly savvy. Every all-round gladiator is a treasure in the eyes of trainers, their value is not just a simple game, once discovered, they will be trained to become the captain of a team battle, or immediately promoted to a role such as a coach's assistant, to play their true value. Because these people know the style of play of each faction very well, they know how to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, and they also know how to attack the enemy unprepared. Kaizon used to be in charge of leading the team battles of the gladiators of the Makqin family, and the record was a complete victory!
However, there is no mention of why Kaizon was so loyal to Esenhard, and how Isenhard and Elena conspired to poach him from Maxim. However, this is not something that Zhang Long should be concerned about, now he just needs to listen carefully to the teachings and train hard.
After dinner, Zhang Long came to Lucas's treatment room: he was bruised by the champion, and it was better to be cured in time. And Lucas was also very happy about Zhang Long's visit: Zhang Long was an extremely rare ordinary person with the resonance of holy light in his body, and as an old healer with an exploratory spirit, he was very interested in this young man.
"You know, it's much easier to heal you than it is to heal other brothers. The old man said with a smile, and put his palm on Zhang Long's forehead: "Ordinary small injuries, I only need to guide the holy light in your own body to heal them, and it doesn't take my effort at all. Zhang Long lay quietly on the treatment bed, feeling the warm current in his body resonating warmly with Lucas's guidance, and the bruises all over his body quickly faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"But why can't I feel it when I'm alone?" Zhang Long asked with some annoyance. There's nothing more frustrating than knowing that you have a lot of potential but not being able to tap into it.
"Do you think the Holy Light is so easy to listen to you?" Lucas smiled, "It takes at least ten years to train a healer, and even if someone like you has taken **** luck and has hidden the Holy Light in their bodies, they have to train strictly under the guidance of their seniors!"
Zhang Long was excited: "That...... Can you be my senior and guide me?"
Seeing that Zhang Long had finished healing, Lucas took away the hand that was covering his forehead, patted him on the head, and said, "Stinky boy, just be your gladiator, what kind of healer do you learn?
The eviction order was issued, and Zhang Long had to leave in disgrace. It seems that it is really a bit whimsical to learn the Holy Light Spell so quickly, so let's train with peace of mind, maybe one day Lucas feels that he works hard enough, and his children can be taught, and he will be gracious.
He went to the cloister equipment rack and took out his spear and walked to the training ground to prepare for extra training, only to see Fetsuma pestering Simbo there for advice. The two barbarians practiced each other, and the wooden instruments collided together, making a dull sound one after another.
"Pay attention to your battle intent!" Xin Bo instructed as he made a move, "At least I was taught this way in the tribe, and to be honest, I can't always feel the 'fluctuation of battle intent', so take your time!"
Fei Quma roared and picked up the axe: "I'm full of fighting spirit, but why don't I fluctuate?"
"'Battle Spirit' is not the fire you want to fight," Simpo used his shield to block Fekchuma's attack, "but the source of the power of the barbarian's martial arts! He saw the vacancy and made another move, knocking Fei Quma to the ground: "This kind of thing can only be experienced slowly in the battle, not something that can be clearly explained in words, I myself am a half-ass, you let me teach, aren't you afraid that I will mislead people's children?"
Fetsuma got up and slashed at it with another axe, "Isn't this what I learned in battle? What better way to learn barbarian martial arts than to fight a barbarian warrior?"
Xin Bo once again greeted the eighteenth generation of Fekruma's ancestors in his heart, dodged the attack and smashed it with another hammer, this time easily dodged by Fekruma. The two of them continued their back-and-forth tricks, completely ignoring Zhang Long's existence. Zhang Long had to swing his spear and hit the air by himself, but after a while, the poker-faced master Ding appeared behind him again: "Zhang Long, you have been summoned. 」
A moment later, Zhang Long saw a smiling Esenhard in the council room, and Suina, the black pearl standing beside him, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Long Zhang, I have a task for you," the trainer said happily, "Your chance to use your talents has arrived. I want you to go to Eresa's blacksmith shop and find her to order me a bow for beginners, and buy a pot of arrows by the way. I heard her say that you are especially good at choosing the magical properties of weapons, so I will trust you once this time!" Isenhard said, handing Zhang Long a rune stone. He looked at it and couldn't help but be surprised: several arcs enclosed in a crooked fishhook shape, it was actually a "ral"! Of course, in the game, this belongs to a lot of low-level runes, but this is a three-dimensional Saint Hugh Arri, a "Ed" ranked second can buy three pieces of magic equipment equivalent to the entry blue suit, you can imagine what grade the eighth "ral" is, Isenhard really spared no expense this time!
"Lord...... Master, really want me to buy it...... Is it such an expensive thing?" Zhang Long asked nervously.
Sensing something, Esenhard frowned slightly, and asked, "Do you know its value?"
"Hmm......" Zhang Long didn't dare to lie, and he didn't dare to tell the truth: "I don't know where I have some things about rune stones in my memories, and this ...... 'Ral' is much more expensive than the last 'Ed'......
"Haha, you always surprise me. Esenhard laughed, "Then it's great to give you this task, and I'll have her make a bow for me!"
Zhang Long took the order and left, and a family member had already prepared a carriage waiting at the door of the mansion. This is the first time he has left the mansion alone to run errands, and he is carrying a "huge amount of money", so he is still a little nervous. But at the same time, he also knew that this would be a good opportunity, whether it was to improve his impression in the eyes of his master, or to get acquainted with the "King of Blacksmiths" Iresa.
Soon, the carriage pulled to a halt at the entrance of the alley where Iresa's blacksmith was located. As soon as Zhang Long got out of the car, he heard a fierce quarrel in the alley, he secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly ran over, only to see more than a dozen big men surrounded by the door of the blacksmith shop, staring at Eresa who was standing among them with his waist upside down, with an angry face.
"What the hell, you bastards, you can't find that old immortal, and you're coming to pester this king?" said Ileza angrily, "Just let me pay him back, no way! 」
The leading man held a piece of parchment in front of Iresa's eyes, pointed to the signature on it, and sneered, "See? This is an IOU, a contract! Aren't you nobles the most particular about contracts? It is signed in black and white with the name of your father, Lord Brian, and the seal of your Cooper family! Besides, you're the blacksmith king of Candras, and you can't afford to produce even twenty Els, right?"
Eleza smoked and scolded, "your grandma, even if you don't die, you can't smoke twenty El in a week, you are robbing!"
"Hey, Your Majesty, you don't know this, Lord Brian smokes two El opium at the official price every time, but the Clam Gang has pushed the price of rune stones in the Vossam Black Market to less than half of the official price over the years, we have to go all the way to Bart City to exchange money, and Lord Brian has agreed to give us the carriage fee, look, the IOU is clearly written!" The big man said in a strange way, shaking the parchment by the way.
Iresa bit her lip tightly, her pretty face swollen red, but she still didn't want to suffer this loss, and said loudly: "This is what the old immortal promised you, not me!
Dahan shook his head, took back the IOU and said, "This is Your Majesty, you are not kind, as far as I know, although you are now famous, the head of the Cooper family in the southern city of Votham is still Lord Brian, and now that the seal of the Cooper family is sealed here, you have to fulfill the contract for the head of the family." Otherwise......" The Great Han paused to emphasize, "We can only make a trip to Halfenwood and find your Cooper clan to deal with this matter." In this case, if you don't repay your debts and ruin your family's reputation, you won't know if the clan will remove you from the family tree, hehehe......
The big man sneered repeatedly, and Iresa was so angry that his eyes were on fire, and with a hula, his arms suddenly glowed like red-hot steel, burning the two sleeves into ashes in an instant, and frightened everyone back several steps.
"You, you...... Do you want to do it?" The leading man broke out in a cold sweat: Although Iresa is nominally a blacksmith, he is actually a mage, once he makes a move in anger, can his life be saved?
"Do it, do it!" Ileza said angrily but helplessly, "Damn it, even if this king suffers, I'll give it to you, get out of here!" She gestured, and a bag full of small and small flew out of the door of the blacksmith shop, and slammed it at the big man's feet, and the tie rope broke open, and a large pile of broken diamonds rolled out of it: enough for twenty Els.
The big man hurriedly squatted down to pick up the treasure, and then led his men to run away in a panic. Zhang Long hid aside, and sighed with emotion in his heart: "The King of Blacksmiths" also has such a deflated time, and the father of such a pit daughter is enough for her!
