Chapter 169: Tutoring
The pain that can't be ignored is unnerving. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The pain itself is insignificant. However, after a trauma, people will always help themselves forget the pain in various ways. Anesthetics are a last resort, and most of the time, they just have to tell themselves that the wound is healing, and this deception often works.
And the pain Teng Yunshen felt was as persevering as the white copper nail piercing the palm of his hand. He took his bewildered gaze away from the wound and turned to the witch, who was indifferent to it.
The necromancer let go of his wrist: "The pain hasn't lessened, has it?"
Teng Yunshen nodded uncertainly.
The witch gave further instructions: "Remove the nails. β
Teng Yunshen used a little strength to pull the nail out of his palm.
His brow furrowed even tighter. In the blink of an eye, the wound healed, and Teng Yunshen thought that the pain would also disappear, but found that it was still with him, lingering.
The witch asked, "How does it feel?" and she took in the subtle changes in the young wizard's expression.
"When my body was cast out of metal. Pain is just a faint sign that it tells me which part of my body is hurt, and it doesn't cause more than that. Teng Yunshen said intermittently, "This time is different. He was frustrated that he couldn't find the right words for a moment.
The pain was minimal, but it was firmly nailed to his white copper hand. The situation at this moment is extraordinary. His body is strong, but so is his pain, and both are almost as strong and indestructible.
The witch told Teng Yunshen that his sturdiness could be used to resist pain.
He doesn't need to be told. After two days of torture, he knew what kind of pain he could endure. He had gone back and forth several times before the Ghost Gate, and each time it was far more terrifying than a nail piercing the palm of his hand. And what could be stronger than a metal shell?
However, the strength of the alloy body did not wear away the pain. It has neither weakened nor strengthened, it has remained the same. This is particularly unbearable.
The witch didn't say anything about Teng Yunshen's answer, she only said, "Release the magic of white copper." β
Teng Yunshen did so.
Immediately after, the pain was gone. His eyes widened in surprise. The witch's spell worked. He was a wizard, but he was still amazed. The language of witches is full of incredible magic.
Pain escaped his flesh and blood.
"You're hypnotized by me. The witch explained, "I emphasized your sturdiness and pain, and you subconsciously bound them together. β
Teng Yunshen rubbed his palm, which could no longer find any scars, in disbelief.
"This makes both solid. By 'strong', I don't mean the hardness of cupronickel, it's closely related, but it's different. The witch paused for a moment, "Do you understand what this is all about? It's easy to break two bars of iron, one at a time." And if you stack them on top of each other and break two at a time, it's more difficult. β
Teng Yunshen nodded.
"Here's an example. β
Teng Yun pondered for a moment. "If I had tied my sight to speed," he said, "I wouldn't have been robbed of my vision by flashbangs." β
The witch smiled, "Pretty smart." However, don't forget that in the scenario you envision, your speed will be impaired by the bright light. One is prosperous, and one is lost. And don't forget, you can't tie two contradictory attributes together. Solidity is not contradictory to pain, so you can tie them together. But unless you have a tendency to be disabled and take pleasure in hurt, you can't tie joy to pain. β
Teng Yunshen pondered for a while. "The magic of cupronickel seems to be very powerful," he said, "and if I tie my health to other attributes, I can take more damage." β
The witch shook her head, "Trust me, it's not as good as you think. WizardsβI mean the educated kindβwill recognize you as a bronze mage at a glance. What are some of the attributes that you can use to protect your health? Balance, adaptability, speed, strength? No, these attributes are not durable goods in the first place. You don't have many options. You may tie health to your sense of smell or taste.
Teng Yunshen said happily: "This is a good idea. β
The witch immediately poured cold water on him: "It is much easier for a well-prepared wizard to spoil your sense of smell and taste than it is to ruin your health. Your approach is not worth the cost. Wellness is a broad concept, and the senses of smell and taste are also included in it, which makes your approach twice as effective. In addition, the sense of smell and taste are equally important, as they can drive you away from all kinds of attacks. β
Teng Yun took a deep breath: "This is really bad. β
The witch played with the copper nail: "It's better to think about causing damage than to take damage." I've seen the way you fight. You are the killer, not the guard. β
"I can use copper magic to strengthen myself. β
The witch smiled, "You reacted quickly. As we all know, money is not very valuable to the Copper Mage. They are able to maintain state by bundling complex attributes together. However, for you, perhaps the magic of cupronickel is more important because it can help you improve your state. She stopped smiling as soon as she started teaching, reminding the young wizard of a substitute teacher who didn't smile," to give you another example. β
"Suppose I had tied speed and strength together in a stationary state. Then, once I start running, my strength will also increase. β
"I've changed my mind about you. I just like smart kids. The witch stretched out her beautiful hand and rubbed Teng Yunshen's cheek, which had no time to dodge. "You've thought of a way to use the magic of cupronickel correctly. β
Teng Yunshen kept struggling, and his face turned red. The witch let go of him with a grin.
"Now, we have to think about how to brake. You throw a punch and smash the bad guy's head to pieces. "Then, you want to stop." However, it's not that easy. You can't keep pushing your feet if you want to slow down, and inertia will stop you from slowing down, forcing you to keep squandering through the power of the Cupronickel. After all, speed and strength go hand in hand. You'll have to let them go in time. β
"I can put an end to the change that the magic of cupronickel brings. β
The witch picked up another nail: "That's exactly what I'm going to say next, you can also put on another kind of magic." β
