Chapter 3: The Long Winter
The punishment lasted for half an hour, and Du Kang also convulsed for half an hour. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
What's even more infuriating is that at the beginning, the voice that sounded like a very young man also reminded Du Kang to concentrate!
I'll gather your uncle...... Wouldn't that be too much to ask?
Du Kang thought with tears streaming down his face, he no longer had the strength to protest, and could only curse in his heart that was about to collapse.
But soon, Du Kang sensed something different.
That's the stroke!
Following the magic lamps that Tom Sr. has studied for many years, Du Kang is most familiar with carving various miniature magic arrays on the magic rough stones with a carving knife. How does the carving knife work, how many steps do the strokes have, how do the inscriptions are outlined...... These things are already familiar to me.
So when the forty-second reminder of Du Kang's concentration in the Balala Little Black House, Du Kang finally found that this punishment did not seem to be just a simple punishment!
"...... The left foot seems to be writing the first word, and the right foot is writing the ...... "The tip of the quill was hard enough for Du Kang to feel every stroke on the soles of his feet. Du Kang soon endured the sourness and began to feel what the quill had written on the soles of his feet.
In this way, after focusing on what was written on the quill, Du Kang found that his body was not so unbearable!
After a while, Du Kang read out the sentence that the quill was writing under his feet, "Chapter 15, the amount of magic power has a certain fluctuation...... I see, this is the content of the fifteenth chapter of the "Theory of Magic", and it turns out that this is the content of the Theory of Magic. ā
Du Kang suddenly realized that those quill pens were written on the soles of his feet in the first fifty chapters of "The Theory of Magic" that he had not been able to memorize!
The little black house seemed to feel the change in Du Kang, and there was a hint of joy in her voice: "That's it, big brother." Feel it with your heart, Balala will work out the most suitable training plan for him according to the situation of the entrant, as long as you are not lazy, the big brother will definitely feel the benefits that Balala brings you after going out~"
Du Kang opened his eyes and found that above his head, a light and shadow suddenly appeared.
This light and shadow is about half a human height, with a pair of wings behind him, and a magic wand in his hand, he can't tell the difference between men and women, and he looks like he is only seven or eight years old, but he looks very cute.
Du Kang's heart moved, and an ugly smile squeezed out of his distorted face and said to the light and shadow of Balala: "Hey, Balala, I have memorized these contents, can you make these things stop...... Hiss~"
Before he finished speaking, Du Kang felt that the speed of the quills under his bottom suddenly accelerated, and the sour feeling instantly became three points thicker!
Du Kang watched in exasperation as Balala waved his wand, apparently the little guy was doing something wrong again. "Hey, what are you doing?"
Balala flew up and down around Du Kang twice, crossed his hands on his hips, and exhaled: "Big brother didn't concentrate, and tried to deceive Balala, big brother is a liar, hum!"
"I ......" Du Kang was a little helpless, it seemed that he couldn't please him, so he could only accept the punishment honestly.
Half an hour later, the quill under his feet finally stopped moving. The books that grabbed Du Kang also flew back into the bookcase with a swish, and Du Kang was still on the ground.
Du Kang touched the soles of his feet, glanced at Balala with a wry smile, and thought to himself that this fifty chapters of the Theory of Magic may not be forgotten in his life.
The quill was almost engraved in his mind, and he now felt that he could even recite the first fifty chapters backwards.
"Big brother finished the punishment and now has an hour of rest. ā
Du Kang, who was lying on the ground, didn't even have the strength to smile bitterly, needless to say, the original two-hour rest time was naturally deducted by Balala because of punishment.
At the thought of staying here for another winter and facing all kinds of study and training, Du Kang forced himself to get up and sit cross-legged.
If you don't use meditation to replace rest time, this winter ...... I'm just afraid it's sad.
............
The recitation of this book of Master Vanner's "Treatise on Magic" took Du Kang a full ten days!
In the past ten days, he had been punished a total of thirty-six times, each of which made Du Kang ********, and in the end Du Kang almost heard the three words of quills have a shadow......
In order not to accept punishment, Du Kang worked very hard and focused when reciting!
On the tenth day, Du Kang faced Balala's spot check and answered word for word. Du Kang has never felt that endorsement is also a sense of accomplishment!
"Can I go, winter should be over, right?"
"It's still early, big brother. The next thing you have to memorize is the Elemental Theory. ā
Du Kang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked with a stiff expression: "If you fail, won't the punishment be writing on the soles of your quill feet?"
"Big brother is so smart. Balala squinted and laughed as she waved her wand.
ā......ā
In order not to experience the horrific quillish punishment again, Du Kang was extra attentive when reciting the theory of elements. And almost all of his daily rest time is used to practice the "Tide Meditation Technique" (he only has this set of refreshing methods)
It turns out that when a person is distracted to do something, and with the right amount of pressure, the training effect is amazing!
This time, it took Du Kang only five days to recite the theory of elements. The punishment was reduced to nine, as Du Kang had learned how to concentrate and memorize effectively. In such a short period of time, it has to be said that this is a huge step forward. And the content of the elemental theory is more than half that of the magic theory!
Now Du Kang can answer almost any question about either of these two books.
For example, the rank of an element determines the amount of mana needed to control the element.
The rank and number of elements, as well as their arrangement, determine the level and power of magic.
Lower-level elements can be transformed into higher-level elements through the catalysis of mana, giving birth to more powerful magic......
If he didn't think that he didn't have magic powers, Du Kang felt that if he put on a mage robe and hold a wand, he would be able to go out and tell others that he was a learned magician!
But that's just the beginning.
Just when Du Kang thought that he had mastered the two books called "The Theory of Magic" and "The Theory of Elements", which were called "the origin and inheritance of magic", the basic theory was already very solid. Balala waved her wand, and thirteen books flew from the bookcase to Du Kang.
"The next training is to master these thirteen basic theory books at the same time, these thirteen books contain the basic knowledge of today's various magic systems, they have something in common, and they are derived from the two books of magic theory and elemental theory, as long as you master these books, the basic theoretical knowledge of the big brother is considered to be the introduction......"
ā......ā
"The magic is vast and profound, and it is impossible for each faction to fully understand the content of a magician's life, so the task of the big brother is also very simple, as long as you memorize them, and then slowly integrate them in the future......"
ā......ā
"The content of these thirteen books is not very large, and each of them is three times the size of the previous two. If the big brother is as attentive as before, it won't be long before he ......"
ā......ā
"Hey, big brother, why is your face so ugly, is it a cold? No, in the little black house of Balala, you won't get sick......"
Looking at the thirteen books in front of him, they almost all exceeded his own size. And when Balala innocently said not a lot of words, the corners of Du Kang's mouth resisted the urge to slap the elf to death and stood up.
Sure enough, the more painful thing in this world than reciting "The Theory of Magic" and "The Theory of Elements" in the small dark room is to recite thirteen books such as "The Seven Systems of Elementary Magic", "The Illustrated Guide to Elementary Warcraft", and "Identification and Effect of Alchemy Materials......
But at the thought of the quill that didn't know when it would fly out of nowhere, Du Kang dispelled this thought in his heart, and sighed and picked up a book to look at.
This is destined to be a long winter.
