Chapter 422: The Old Village

The man took the iron card from Dio's hand with some surprise, and looked at it for a while before looking at Dio again, but his face still did not soften: "With this, it doesn't mean that I will forgive you for your rudeness." Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"The ......," said Theo, a little embarrassed, "we thought there was no one here......"
"Yes, sir. Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Isabel hurriedly continued: "We are all ready to go back." β
"The reason wasn't good enough to convince me. The man's face was still cold.
Dio smiled bitterly: "Sir, you should be able to understand our feelings, when we came to hear from others, since the establishment of the Song of Death Academy, no student has ever applied for special counseling, they have repeatedly persuaded me, saying that this is not worth it, but we think that since Dean Statham has set this kind of special counseling, he must have his own ideas, and we also believe that we will accept our most important and even fate-changing lesson here, but ...... When we got here, we found that there was no one, it was so disappointing and the mood became very bad, so we wanted to shout and vent...... Sir, we are young people after all, and we are prone to impulsiveness, and I hope you will forgive us for our faux pas. β
"Flamboy, in my experience, people who often say they are impulsive are often the least impulsive. The man sneered, although his tone still seemed very unfriendly, but his expression was much softened, and then he looked down at the black iron plate again, and sighed for a long time: "Yes, it's true that no one has been here for a long, long time......"
"That's their stupidity. Dio hurriedly said: "They can only see the star fragments exchanged for credits, but they don't know that there are some things in the world that are much more precious than star fragments. β
"Oh? What's that?"
"For example, the experience and lessons of the predecessors, as well as the perception of the source force. Dio said respectfully, "Star fragments are precious, but they are valuable, and these are priceless treasures. β
"Hehe......" The man let out a dry laugh, and then glanced at Dio, "Are you going to be tutored?"
"No, it's not me. Dio looked at Isabel: "It's her." β
The man was stunned, a look of disappointment flashed between his eyebrows, and then said to Isabel: "Okay, come with me." β
"Isabel, don't be too nervous. Dio looked at Isabel and smiled, "I'll be waiting for you here." β
"You think you're okay?" the man snorted, "Go clean that room." β
Dio froze, that room had not been inhabited for a long time, it had been abandoned, and it was necessary to clean it?
"Huh?" the man frowned.
"No problem. Dio immediately replied.
For the first time, Isabel saw Dio behaving so well-behaved, and she couldn't help but hide her mouth and snicker.
The man glanced at Isabel and suddenly asked, "She's your little lover?"
"No, no......" Isabel was ashamed and waved her hand vigorously.
"She's my fiancΓ©e's best friend. Dio had to explain, and at the same time felt a little strange in his heart, it was Isabel who was being tutored, so Isabel should have been the protagonist, and the way the other party spoke seemed to regard him as the protagonist.
"FiancΓ©e's best friend......?" the man laughed again, and he seemed to laugh very rarely, so the laughter always seemed a little dry.
Dio and Isabel looked a little embarrassed, and didn't know how to answer.
"Follow me. The man threw down a sentence and turned and walked down the hill, while Isabel hurried after him.
After the man disappeared, Dio breathed a sigh of relief, Saint-level powerhouse...... After advancing to Wuzun, he may be able to escape in front of such a person, but before that, he has no hope at all, and the other party can easily kill him with one finger, perhaps this is also the reason why that person is too lazy to bother with himself, or more precisely, it should be disdainful.
It's as if if a gifted warrior rushes out now to provoke Dio, Dio can only feel ridiculous, but it is difficult to move any murderous intent, and he is not a person at the same level at all.
But the house still has to be cleaned, this is his retribution, Laura is standing aside with big eyes blinking, looking at Dio curiously, the expression on her face seems to be very strange, why don't you leave in this room?
Dio turned his head to look at Laura, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this girl can't count on it...... As Dio worked hard, Isabel followed the man down a path that she didn't know how long she had walked, only that her feet were getting more and more painful, her legs were getting more and more sore, and the lake had turned into a small round mirror behind her.
However, Isabel understood that the opportunity was rare, and she kept gritting her teeth and holding on, not daring to complain.
It was dark, and a quaint village jumped into Isabel's eyes, and some shaking figures could be seen in the village, Sophia's eyes could hardly believe it, there was still a village in such a remote place?
As she approached the village, an invisible but palpable twilight came to her face, and it had nothing to do with the sunset sinking into the sky, but because of the quaint houses and the old people.
In the past, when she was in the plains of Chris, Isabel also visited the villages near the city of Santis, and in almost every village, you could see some delicate and innocent children playing, but there was no one to see here, all of them were old people.
Isabel's mood suddenly became nervous, from the moment she stepped into the village, the eyes of the old people all turned around, nailed to her, combined with the dark sky, the sad ancient village, and those faces full of vicissitudes, Isabel had a feeling of stepping into a ghost.
"Why did you bring outsiders in?" asked an old man who had just walked out of the room, who seemed to have a lot of status, in a displeased voice.
"She's here for counseling. The man who led Isabel replied.
"Counseling?" the old man who asked was dumbfounded.
A twitch spread among the old people, and Isabel felt that the gazes became more strange, and of course, her mood became more nervous.
"This girl is the first student to come to the tutoring, and I'm going to take care of her. The man leading Isabel said, "Let Joddell teach her the basics, and then send her to Deedi." β
"Are you sure you're going to send her to Didi?!"
"Is there a better samurai of the water system among us than Didi?"
"But she ......," the old man stopped talking.
The man who led Isabel waved his hand, and continued to walk forward, and came to a small courtyard at the southernmost end of the village, and pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
"Jodele!" shouted Isabel's man.
The door to the room was opened, and a wizened old man walked out, his gaze swept and fell on Isabe.
"Isabel, huh? don't rest, let's get started. The person who led Isabel said lightly: "You know, you only have one day." β
"Okay. Isabel nodded, "What should I call you?"
"Does it matter what you call it?" the person who led Isabel frowned and said unceremoniously, "If you want to waste all your time on such pointless issues, then I advise you to go back." β
"Oh......" Isabel secretly wrinkled her nose behind the man's back, if she didn't say it, she wouldn't say it, why should she be so fierce?
"Sit down. The man who led Isabel pointed to the waterhole, and Isabel obediently sat down by the waterhole.
"Jodele, this is the student who has come for tutoring. The person who led Isabel said: "Start directly, don't talk nonsense, it's not easy for the little girl to save 10,000 credits to receive tutoring, God knows how determined she is, if this time it disappoints, I can guarantee that no one will come again." β
The old man, Judele, seemed to be a little slow to react, and Isabel had been sitting there for a long time before he let out a low laugh, and then slowly walked to the waterhole and sat down opposite Isabel.
"You're still a Radiant Samurai, aren't you?"
"It's a ninth-order radiant warrior. Isabel emphasized.
The person who led Isabel sneered: "With your age, you are a ninth-order radiant warrior, I really don't know what you are doing here, the strength of that girl with the flash leopard is much stronger than you." β
"How can I be the same as her?" Isabel disagreed: "She doesn't need to cultivate." β
"Of course I know she's a Guardian. β
Isabel didn't notice that the man had a mixed emotion in his eyes at the mention of the Guardian, as if he was recalling something.
The old man named Juddell glanced up in displeasure, and then shifted his gaze to Isabel: "Although you are only a warrior of light, you may not be able to comprehend what I said, but what should be taught to you, I will not keep it, how much you can remember, it is up to you." β
"Yes. Isabel nodded emphatically, and quickly sat upright, assuming a posture of listening attentively.
Looking at Isabel's troubled appearance, a smile appeared on Jodele's old face: "There's no need to be so formal, I said, you can just listen." β
Isabel smiled sheepishly and relaxed slightly.
"We're water warriors, so you have to understand water and how it's formed. β
Isabel thought that this mysterious tutor could say something shocking and high-minded, but she didn't expect it to be the same old tune, and this kind of thing is also available in Santis Academy, so she was a little disappointed in her heart.
Juddell seemed to guess Isabel's thoughts, and didn't bother with Isabel, just smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and a ball of water flew out of the pool, hovering above his palm, as if it was alive, constantly changing shapes, the sun shining on it, refracting colorful colors, magnificent, dreamlike, for a while Isabel actually looked a little crazy.
"Whether it's water or ice, even fog, you can use them to kill any enemy if you use them to the extreme. β
With Joddell's voice, the water ball suddenly spun rapidly, and gradually elongated, turning into a two-pointed spinning top-like thing, and then slowly flew towards a large tree outside the courtyard, the gyroscope flew very slowly, so Isabel could clearly see that this thing composed entirely of water just bit bit burrowed into the trunk of the tree, and it didn't take long to penetrate the whole tree.
Isabel opened her mouth wide, how could this be? What surprised her the most was that she didn't feel the source force fluctuation during the whole process, which showed that the person had only used a very small amount of source power to do such a thing.
"That's the power of water, it's the softest thing and at the same time it can be the hardest. The man stretched out his finger and flicked it, and the top returned to the form of a water ball and flew back, and when it flew above Isabel's head, it suddenly burst open, turning into countless droplets of water and flying in the air, and then each water droplet continued to burst and split, and so on, and after a while, what appeared in front of Isabel's eyes was a tumbling mist.
Isabel had never seen such a sight, and the fog was formed like this, and countless droplets of water flew like pearls in the sky, and at this moment Isabel suddenly felt that her language was too barren, for she could not think of how to describe this shocking picture.
"The power of the samurai is that they can kill people and save people, and there is nothing you can't do if you want to. Listening to Jodele's faint voice, Isabel involuntarily sat more upright.
The mist churned, eventually turning into a huge shield hovering in the air, and with a light wave of his hand, Juddell waved his hand, and countless arrows flew out of the waterhole, raining down on the shield.
Strange things happened, countless water arrows hit the shield, and the shield still stood there like Mount Tai, the only difference was that the thickness of the shield continued to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye, and those water arrows did not even splash out the slightest splash, apparently absorbed by the shield.
Can the mist still be used like this?!!
"The defense ability of the earth warriors is indeed very strong, but our water warriors are also not bad, but there is no strongest defense in the world, and the best defense is to attack!"
The shield of mist began to shrink in size and became clear, reflecting a brilliant glow in the sunlight, and Isabel was stunned, only to realize that the mist had somehow turned into tiny ice crystals.
"You're a Radiant Warrior, and you're probably most familiar with Ice Storm and Frozen Air, right? But I'll tell you, Ice Storm is definitely not as powerful as you think. With a wave of his hand, the shield suddenly disintegrated into countless small Xiaoice crystals, and shot quickly towards a huge rock several people high by the pool.
After a dense crackling sound, countless small holes appeared on the boulder, and the next moment, with a bang, the boulder suddenly exploded, and there were dots of ice crystals mixed in the sand and gravel in the sky.
