Chapter Eighty-Six: Brothers
"We're not going to give up, Bright, it's easier to run into you than to beat you, and I just want to get there, brother, and if this test passes, I want to give up the third test. Bruno didn't discuss it with others, but directly said his thoughts, which seemed to make Bright stunned for a moment.
"I, I think so too, okay, if you can pass the second test, then I'll help you through, no matter what the Shark King says, okay?" Bright said after stammering for a while, for him, he almost never took his eldest brother in his eyes, let alone in his heart, just helped him just because he owed him a life back then, but after thinking about it, he felt that the eldest brother might just use that stubble back then to threaten him.
"I suppose so, as long as you can touch any light you're emitting, right?" asked Bruno, the words that seemed to make Tolman think of something, and he pondered.
"Then here we go, you're ready, just touch me!" said Bright and turned into a ball of light again, but no one chased him, everyone was waiting for someone to come up with an idea.
"Tolman, what do you think, is there any way to catch my brother, I can only do it here. Bruno said, he pulled up his bow and arrows, and pointed at the ball of light that was dodging left and right, but heard Bright's taunt: "Although time is faster than light, no one can be strong enough to master time, and you are the most powerful, Bruno, is your arrow fast, or my light fast!"
"It would be much easier if Bellamy knew ice magic, but unfortunately you can only create water at most, so we can't catch him at all, and there is nothing to reflect here, even if it is our weapon, the West Shark King is very smart, and the weapons left behind are all rusty antiques, and it is not good to get close to him, I think I have no choice this time." Tolman said as he looked at Bright, who was dodging.
"What about you, Captain Caitou, can you make ice?" He Lei turned his head and asked Caitou, Caitou could only smile bitterly and shook his head, if it was called Mo Wanlai, it was estimated that it would be fine, Caitou would only know a little now.
"Xu Du, do you have a way, your ability should be the same as Bright's, and the trick you just made against the crocodile, I thought you blew yourself up. He Lei breathed a sigh of relief when he said this, he was really frightened at that time.
"At that time, it was indeed self-destructing, for mages, the source of power was in their own bodies, so our self-detonation was to use their own power as explosives, but I found a better way, which was to guide, direct the power to the weapon, and let the weapon self-detonate, but in this way, the weapon of poor quality will break, just like this. Xu Du said as he raised the hammer in his hand, which was full of cracks. Then he continued: "Bright's power is completely different from mine, at least I don't feel the familiar breath, but I heard that there is a kind of light magic, which is the magic that uses high speed to defeat enemies in an instant, the name seems to be called the Sword of Time, but the person who will be has died a long time ago, I wonder if he will get this power." ”
"It's impossible, the West Shark King signed a contract with Philis, no matter what, they are all demons, demons can't give my brother the power of light, it could be something else, he figured it out himself, he loved to learn magic since he was a child, he learned fire at first, and then went to learn water magic, as well as wind, iron, stone, many of them were explored by himself, because our family is poor, I think this may also be explored by him. Bruno put away his bow and arrows and said, he didn't take Bright's words to heart, and he knew that his arrows certainly couldn't compare to light.
"Then your brother must have been a genius since he was a child, and it's a pity that a genius has been reduced to being a pirate. Ma Chen said regretfully, but it evoked Bruno's memories, he closed his eyes and recalled the events of that time. If it weren't for him, his brother wouldn't have come to be a pirate.
"Brother, where are we going, my father will be angry if he knows that we run around, brother!" said a child in a milky voice after a child who was a little older than him.
"Shhh The child in front looked back and said, and the child in the back climbed up a low rock with a sigh.
The two children walked silently to a coconut tree, looked up at the tall coconut tree, and imagined themselves looking up at the majesty of the sea below, and they both giggled at the same time, and then stopped for a while, looking in both directions, looking for a foothold where they could climb up and down.
"No, Bright, stay here, I'll bring your share down, as long as you don't let these coconuts get lost. Bruno found a place with a bulge and was about to climb up, and when he found that his brother was also trying to climb up, he quickly stopped Bright, he didn't want Bright to get hurt and be scolded by his father when he got home.
"But, I want to try it too, big brother, let me go up with you, okay?" Bright's eyes turned out to be cute, and Bruno suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
"No, however, you must stay here, or if you go up by yourself, then you will have to come down by yourself, and if you can't, wait to spend the night with those man-eating seabirds, and tomorrow your father will come to you!" said Bruno, and raised his hands, interlaced together, and tapped a few times on Bright's head, just as several seabirds flew in the sky, and their calls rang out at the same time, which frightened Bright for a moment.
"Good...... Okay, but can I tell someone that I went up to beat coconuts when I get back?"
"No problem, but you must stay here, don't run, don't climb!" said Bruno, climbing up the tree, as fast as he could, but when he got up, he was not in a hurry to catch coconuts, for he saw a boat parked on the seashore, and the flag on it was painted with a sharp knife, and a piece of the knife was missing.
"Bright, Bright, get out!" Bruno whispered to his brother, but it seemed a little far away, Bright didn't hear him, just squatted on the ground and looked at the little ant on the ground, as if he had already seen it.
"I'll just say, those chicks are so fat, they're just wearing those damn tunics, you just don't listen, you've been cheated out of a lot of money!" A man's voice sounded from under the tree on the other side, and Bruno climbed the branch to look, and saw two men in ragged clothes appear, with scimitars on their bodies and coconuts hanging from their waists.
Bruno's face suddenly turned pale, he had heard the children next door tell him stories about pirates, saying that pirates sometimes come to their island to get coconuts, they are all murderous demons, if you meet them, this life will be over, originally Bruno thought that this was just an adult made up in order to scare children not to run around, but I didn't expect that now it really appeared, then Bright's life is at stake. It would definitely take a lot of time to go down and ask Bright to go with him now, so shouting would attract their attention. Bruno could only pray that the pirates would go to another coconut tree so that he would have time to leave, and that Bright would be better off not talking.
"Okay, that's it, do you go up or do I go up?" said the man who had just spoken and kicked the coconut tree in front of him, although the coconut tree didn't move much, but it scared Bruno so much that he could only cover his mouth, but he didn't expect that at this time Bright hummed a song, and the pirate over there sighed, and began to look around, and soon found Bright.
"Boy, hahaha, he can't be here alone!" said the tall, lanky pirate who spoke, squatted down, took out a piece of candy from his bosom and shook it in front of Bright, then put it away, and asked softly, "Kid, who brought you here?"
Bright ignored him, much to Bruno's relief, but the conversation between the two pirates lifted Bruno's heart.
"Sell this kid so we can stay two more days in a tavern in Jersey. The fat pirate didn't know what to chew on in his mouth, so he chirped.
"Idiot, don't keep thinking about that stinky bitch who cheats on people's money, but you're smart when you're so stupid, hahaha, great idea!" said the tall and skinny pirate, looking at Bright, who was silent.
When they were about to attack, a coconut fell from the sky and hit the head of the tall and thin pirate, which made him dizzy, but it also made him feel a fire in his heart, and just as he wanted to curse, the coconut fell from the tree again, and he quickly took the fat pirate to hide behind a tree.
The tall and thin pirate asked the fat pirate to prepare his bow and arrows, see who was mischievous, and then shoot him down, while Bruno looked down and made a quick departure gesture towards Bright, but unfortunately Bright didn't understand, and the tall and thin pirate looked at the brothers who looked exactly the same, and laughed twice, and asked the fat pirate to shoot Bruno down, but don't hurt Bruno.
The fat pirate answered, but an arrow missed, slashing through Bruno's left eye, leaving a permanent scar, but also a permanent convenience. Bruno's face hurt, and the whole person was planted from the tree, and the tall and thin pirate walked out with a smile, looking at the two brothers, one rolling on the ground, the other crying, and his heart felt a sense of pleasure.
"It seems that I was accidentally injured, and no one wants to sell it, so it's better to kill it on the spot!" said the tall and thin pirate and drew his knife, but a burst of flames burst out from the right, knocking the tall and thin pirate out and burning it to ashes in an instant.
At that time, the person who rescued them happened to be a mage, and that mage was a kind old man, and he didn't know how to heal, so he could only touch Bruno's face to make him feel better. And this scene, Bruno, whose eyes were injured, did not see it, but Bright saw it completely, which was also the beginning of his worship of magic, and later after he returned, Bright followed the old man every day, and the old man did not leave, and began to teach Bright fire magic and other simple magic.
"The flame is strong, but the water is more extinguished than the fire, the water is very powerful, but the wind can blow it away, the wind is very strong, but it will be blocked by the swarms of trees, Bruno, although you don't learn magic, but your potential is also very high, if your brother has mastered the light, then nothing can you defeat him?" One day the old mage asked Bruno this question in front of Bright, Bruno didn't understand these things at all, he just answered superficially.
"I close my eyes and see faster than light, because that's how I feel......," Bruno said, raising his bow and arrow, and an arrow flew out, passing through the fast-moving ball of light and nailing it to a tree behind it, leaving everyone present stunned.
"If you were the light, then my feelings would be even stronger!"
