Chapter 185: Neris's Third Ability (Part II)
Chapter 185: Neris's Third Ability (Part II)
Neris slept for a week. The cycle of Myers Continent is six days, and these six days represent the six elements, and the cycle repeats. The Holy See tried to popularize the concept in the Codex, once changing the week to seven days, but most people on the mainland did not accept this, and only developed such a habit near the Glorious Plains.
The Rock Turtle Alchemy Ship travels 18 hours a day at a speed of 40 miles, and travels 6 hours at a speed of 60 miles. The speed of advancing every day reached more than a thousand miles, and Neris slept for six days, and the Turtle Alchemy Ship had reached the periphery of the frozen sea.
Because of the underwater driving, there are not many dangers encountered, and the ice floes do no harm to the alchemy ship. A large number of demonic beasts in the sea did not have any ability to attack the alchemy ship with the shell of the turtle, but there were some tabby dolphins more than twenty meters long who followed the alchemy ship and were very curious.
Tabby dolphins are very intelligent and they recognize the tortoise, but they have never seen a tortoise swim without sticking out its limbs and tail. These demonic beasts above level 7 follow the Rock Turtle Alchemy Ship, often following thousands of miles away, and they don't seem to have the concept of territory.
At first, Saleen was a little worried, but when the tabby dolphin chased away a sawtooth shark that tried to attack the alchemy ship, Saleen finally relented. The ocean is not all dangers, there are many interesting things.
Along the way, Salin observed Neris every day. It's to give lectures to five low-level mages. From time to time, Banchagana was sent out to help Salin collect biological samples from the route.
The farther north he went, the more peculiar the biological samples Salin obtained, and those magical beasts in the ocean were difficult to see on the illustrated book. The most dangerous time, when the alchemy ship was floating on the surface and moving fast, it was attacked by a jellyfish, and the jellyfish's powerful spiritual power actually broke through the defense of the alchemy ship, almost killing the low-level mages and Elaine inside.
The tabby dolphins that followed the alchemy ship all ran away, and the alchemy ship had to release twenty-four bone fish, carrying weeping bloodstones, which injured the jellyfish, and the alchemy ship immediately escaped at a speed of more than eighty miles.
The speed of eighty miles is not the ultimate speed for a surface warship, but for the Pangui Alchemy Ship, which is not suitable for high-speed travel, it will consume more than three times the magic core to reach this speed.
Saleen finally saw the power of the creatures of the frozen sea, and re-ordered the alchemy ship to slow down and move safely underwater. When not using the Demon Core Drive, it is difficult for the Alchemy Ship to arouse the interest of any Demon Beast.
During this battle, Salin harvested some of the tentacles of jellyfish and found that he could refine a strong numb* intoxicating potion. Because jellyfish don't like to eat dead things, this numb* drunken agent basically does not kill people, and is suitable for surgical operations. Chunlin is a fourth-level magic, although the healing effect is powerful, but not everyone can enjoy it, on the battlefield, if you want to treat the wounded soldiers, you still rely on the operation of the magic apprentice.
At this time, Saleen began to develop a habit of writing magical notes. Strange things he encountered along the way. All of them were written down by him.
On the sixth day, when she reached the Frozen Outer Siege, Neris woke up. She was asleep this time, and she didn't show her true body, and her degree of evolution was much higher, and according to human standards, Neris was finally out of the category of ordinary summoned creatures.
"Master?"
Neris was a little surprised to see Saleen by her side. Then she was relieved that the soul contract between the two was more solid, and Saleen could foresee when she would wake up.
"Evolved again?" Salin asked, expectantly.
"Nope. After a soul wash, Neris is ready to tell Sara the truth. "Master, actually, I have gained a new ability. ”
"In this way, your bloodline is really special. ”
Seeing that Saleen didn't ask about what she had hidden before, Neris relieved and replied, "I can obtain eight abilities, but I need a special way to obtain them. At first I gained the power of the Thiago dragon, and sooner or later, my power will be as great as the dragon, the second ability. It's the power of the Thunder Guardian, and I'm immune to magic. This time, the third ability was obtained...... I ......," Nellis swallowed.
"What kind of ability is it?" said Salin, who didn't know that Neris's bloodline was so special.
"I can become a *human, not with the power of the ultimate transfiguration, but from the real ability to become a *human. But in my human form, I lost my demonic powers. ”
"Huh, what's the benefit?" Salin was a little disappointed when he heard about Neris's third ability.
"It's shapeshifting, and like magic, I can transform almost instantaneously. ”
Saleen groaned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of this ability. Because Neris is a demon bloodline and a small demon, she can't practice magic and sword energy, but after turning into a real human form, her body structure is no longer any different from that of a human, not just a change in appearance.
In other words, from now on, Neris can learn magic or sword energy. For other races, this ability may not have much meaning, but Neris has a very long lifespan, and if she learns magic, she will definitely be able to become a ninth-level magician, and she has time. The lifespan of a human being, if not cultivated, is the longest limit is one hundred and twenty years old, and Neris's lifespan, if she does not encounter harm, may be a little longer than the Undead Monarch.
Seeing that Salin understood, Neris laughed and said, "Master." What are you going to let me study?"
In human form, Neris can only cultivate in one direction, either magic or sword energy. These two are incompatible, but once the magic string is formed, it is basically impossible to cultivate the sword qi, and even if it is cultivated, it will never reach the level of the sword saint.
Therefore, although a qualified magician like Rex only trained his body to the level of a junior sword master, he stopped exercising, because there was no other point in continuing except wasting time.
"Let's learn magic first. Salin thought that Neris could have released the scroll, but Neris had no control over the scroll and could only release it in the standard way, which was too wasteful.
"Master, I want to learn swordsmanship. ”
"Swordsmanship?"
"Yes, I don't need sword qi because my strength is enough. It doesn't affect learning magic. ”
"If you have time......
"Master, if not, I'll eat Zola. ”
"No!" Salin was startled. The Three Kings are unreliable. Zola is now a very powerful fighting force around him.
"Hey, master, I'm kidding. Zola's guy is funny, I can learn swordsmanship from him. ”
Salin looked at Neris with suspicion, thinking to himself: I'm afraid you can see that Zola is a bit, and once he wants to take advantage of you in the process of teaching swordsmanship, you have a reason to eat him, right?
"Is there a time limit for your ability?" Salin was noncommittal, if Neris wanted to learn swordsmanship, Zola was a good choice, and at most he could warn him.
"Yes. Once transformed, it can last for a day, and it takes three days of rest to reshape. ”
"There's no advantage to learning magic. ”
"It's not that calculated, I can learn the basics in the demon state and exercise the magic string in the human form. ”
"Then you're going to be human from now on?"
"Not yet. Nellis sighed, if only she really became a *human, the master would not resist herself so much and go to mess with Sika. The hateful Sika actually knocked herself out of the room, and when she learned magic and swordsmanship, she would not be her opponent.
Neris thought of this, with an evil smile in her green eyes.
"Master, how many times have you Sika in the past few days that I've been asleep?" asked Nellis suddenly.
Salin's face flushed, and he didn't know what to answer. In fact, when he was with Sika these days, he spent most of his time helping Sika get acquainted with the half-magic on that armband. The two of them practiced in the room in a practical way, and Shika was intoxicated with the pleasure of controlling half-magic, and there was not much lingering with Sarin.
"You...... He's still a demon. Salin sighed.
"What's wrong with demons? Demons can also give birth to humans. Nellis pouted and said unconvinced.
Salin shuddered as he remembered the original appearance of Neris's body. He approves of spiritual feelings, but physically, he is very resistant to a non-human race. If humans can be with demons, can they also be with the undead? What about giants, what about legendary dwarves, centaurs, snake people, gnomes......
The more Salin thought about it, the more disgusted he became, and he left the room with a gloomy face.
Neris followed behind Sarah, the corners of her mouth curled up and she smiled secretly. Hmph, this is a mental disorder mentioned in the book? If you have the chance, you can catch another arrow and give it to your master. When the time comes, at most, the master will be killed, and I am afraid that he will not regret it? Kill the master, and he will be devoured by the soul, **, there should be no problem, right?
In the front compartment, Elaine navigates the Wing Skull. The sign on the magic compass had been fully revealed, and her destination was about to arrive, and she was a little nervous.
"Bing, stop the boat and rest. Salin came to the front cabin and greeted Elaine. The five low-level mages were also taken back to their cabin by Salin, and everyone sat down around the table, and Zola consciously went to prepare the food.
Salin regretted that he didn't bring two more people and let a sword master go to the kitchen, but he didn't want to go.
But Elaine and Aini can't be allowed to do this, the two of them are nominal partners, and everyone may not be able to eat what Sika makes, and what about Nellis?
At this time, Saleen greatly missed the life mages around Rex, who could make beautiful dishes, and they did so with magic. It also satisfies the desire for oral speaking, and can practice in a special way.
Taking a deep breath, Salin put aside the mess in his mind and said, "Elaine, the hunting ground is almost here, can you introduce your previous experience and what you need to pay attention to." ”
