Chapter Twenty-Six: A Three-Month Journey
Ask for collection, click for publicity, ask for publicity, run to tell each other, thank you! Accept the space spar, even if this simple apprenticeship ceremony is over, the meal has been almost cleaned by two and a half children at this time, thank you for the hospitality of the dragon mother, Zhou Ming touched the round belly and returned home satisfied.
Hong Menglong and Zhou Ming came to his home together, the layout of the house is very simple, although it is not a home, but there are only some necessary daily necessities, Hong Menglong is not disgusted, although he is a famous big man in the entire human territory, but he is also a hunter, in the jungle, it is impossible to live better than here, so Hong Menglong sat down next to Zhou Ming's bed.
"Teacher, I have a question. Zhou Ming raised his hand and asked, "I heard that the space spar can recognize the master, and after recognizing the master, the space spar cannot be used by anyone except its owner, what should I do?"
"It's very simple, just a drop of blood. Hong Menglong looked at Zhou Mingdao, who was playing with the space spar.
"It's so simple?" As he spoke, Zhou Ming took out the material knife, lightly stabbed it at his fingertips, squeezed out a drop of blood, and dripped it on the space crystal, and suddenly, the originally white and transparent space crystal flashed with cyan light.
"Even if this is, it is done?" Zhou Ming looked at Hong Menglong suspiciously, and Hong Menglong nodded to him to indicate success, and then also took out his space spar and said to Zhou Ming:
"This thing can also be embedded in the hand armor or other places where you feel it is convenient to access, it's whatever you like, but the space spar recognizes the master does not mean that it is absolutely safe, and there are also special stone washers to clean the space spar that recognizes the master to the state of not recognizing the master as a business, if you just think about the things inside, it will be simpler, find a person with enough strength to smash the hammer, the space spar is broken, and the things inside are all thrown out. Another thing to remind you is that you can't store living things in the space crystal, but you can store herbs or meat in it, but you can keep it fresh. ”
"Teacher E, why is your space crystal blue and mine cyan?" Zhou Ming looked at the space crystal in the teacher's hand and asked.
"The color of the space hedron is related to your bloodline. Hong Menglong glanced at Zhou Ming, "Humans are blue, elves are green, and orcs are red. ”
Zhou Ming was stunned, not knowing what kind of way to speak.
"Although I haven't seen your mother take off her veil, I heard your father say that your mother, Xingyu Baisha, is an elven clansman, and your father may not know that the surname Baisha is the surname of the elven royal family. Hong Menglong didn't know what Zhou Ming's mood would be after hearing about this secret, this kind of thing was definitely rare in ancient and modern times. Thousands of years ago, humans still had relationships with elves and orcs, but after a three-race war, the three races divided their own borders, and since then there has been no contact, and now most people will never see orcs or elves in their lives, let alone fall in love or even get married and have children.
"I see, I said, how could you ask me such a strange question when you first saw me that day. To Hong Menglong's surprise, Zhou Ming did not accept it or was shocked, but quickly calmed down, your parents are not chosen by you, all you have to do is cherish them, and Zhou Ming has heard that the elf clan is a natural combat expert, and that half of the elf bloodline is likely to be the reason why he is superior in strength among his peers, and he has to thank his parents for this matter alone.
"Looks like my worries are a bit unnecessary, I thought you would be lost for a long time. Hong Menglong let out a sigh of relief, although he is a qualified hunter and a qualified teacher, but he is not necessarily a qualified psychiatrist, as an old man who is middle-aged but has always been single, comforting people is definitely not his forte......
"But it's better for you to keep this matter a secret, after all, humans and elves have been at odds since the Great War of the Three Races, and if you hear that you have half elven blood, no one knows what others will think of you. Hong Menglong thought about it and said.
"I know that. Zhou Ming said, he didn't want to be whitewashed and stripped naked by a group of experts and professors to watch and study, and he felt a chill when he thought of it, "But teacher, how did you see that I am not a pure-blooded human just by looking at me?"
"When you touch the threshold of the heaven level, you will naturally understand. Hong Menglong didn't seem to think that this was a problem, "How is your assessment?" Because he came back in advance to discuss with Long Zhen about accepting apprentices, he didn't wait for the end of the assessment of the abandoned city, but he also had confidence in Zhou Ming, and asking at this time was just to seek psychological stability.
"Of course, there is no problem, but it really depends on the teacher's tricky moon body method to properly guarantee that he will pass the assessment. Zhou Ming reported the good news, but also did not forget to pat the teacher's ass.
"Then it's time for you to get your things ready, and we'll be out of town early tomorrow morning. After confirming that Zhou Ming was not shocked by the news that his mother was an elf, Hong Menglong returned to his serious and cherished appearance like gold.
"Out of the city, what are we going to do? Go to the Star Empire? It's too early, I haven't even received the admission letter. Zhou Ming was puzzled.
"It's not early, because we're going on foot. Hong Menglong ignored Zhou Ming, whose mouth was open to the ground, and continued to speak, "The admission notice can be collected by any hunter guild in the Northeast Territory, as long as you bring the identity certificate issued by the Hunter School of Silver Moon City, we can collect it on the way." ”
"But, how long will it take?" This news surprised Zhou Ming even more than his mother was an elven clansman.
"We will take a slight detour, and it is expected that we will reach the Star Pole Royal Academy in three months, during which time, I will give you detailed guidance on your sword skills, and strive to let you reach the strength of the next three stars or so before you reach the Star Pole Royal Academy. ”
"Three months, Samsung!" Zhou Ming stood up suddenly, "Teacher, you're not kidding?"
Hong Menglong looked at him in silence, and Zhou Ming realized that his teacher was not joking.
"Teacher, I'm going to the hunter school to take leave. Zhou Ming also knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion in the teacher's heart, of course he would not disobey the teacher, not to mention that this matter would benefit him and not harm him.
He was going to leave early tomorrow morning, and the time was urgent, Zhou Ming decided to go to school immediately to ask for leave, and Hong Menglong also left Zhou Ming's house, saying that he was going to the blacksmith shop to get a knife.
In fact, the leave system of the Hunter School is very loose, after all, it is impossible for this profession to stay in the school all the time to study, and the school also knew for the first time that Zhou Ming and Luo Fulei were tied for second place in the assessment of the Star Pole Royal Academy, so Zhou Ming simply went through the procedures for leaving the school directly, and from this day on, Zhou Ming graduated from the Hunter School of Silver Moon City ahead of schedule.
However, after a trip to the school, Zhou Ming also heard another news, Lan Xiaoyu also passed the assessment, her material identification and fierce beast identification among the candidates who came from the entire Northeast Territory, she actually won the first place in one fell swoop, better than Zhou Ming and Luo Fulei, in this regard, Zhou Ming can only give a thumbs up, but think about it, this little witch is a person who dares to call in front of the official material appraiser of the Lei Ba Business Group, and it is really more than enough to deal with these apprentices.
After graduation, he wants to leave the familiar city where he has been living, at this time Zhou Ming's heart can be described as mixed, excitement and excitement must be there, a manly husband, going out must be full of ambition, but at the same time, the attachment to his hometown, the nostalgia for the grass and trees here also makes Zhou Ming a little sad, leaving to study once, I don't know when I will come back, when the time comes, I'm afraid it will be a thing.
Back at home, Zhou Ming took out the letter from the drawer before starting to pack up, he had to write a letter to his mother, otherwise he would leave Silver Moon City, and his mother would not be able to contact him, in addition, he also entrusted Uncle Long Zhen to come to his home every month to see if there was a carrier pigeon from his mother, and then help him transfer it to the Star Pole Royal Academy, in fact, after learning about his identity as half of the elves, Zhou Ming knew that his mother was now mostly living in the territory of the elves.
After getting Uncle Long Zhen's reply that he was willing to help, Zhou Ming could leave Silver Moon City with confidence, and he didn't say anything all night, and the next morning.
Zhou Ming got up early in the morning, and after washing up, he began to prepare breakfast, and just as he was eating breakfast, Hong Menglong knocked on the door of Zhou Ming's house.
"Are we leaving?" Zhou Ming hurriedly finished his breakfast in three bites, then wiped his mouth and asked.
"Yes, the first destination is White Rock City, and we are going to hike through the Silvermoon Forest, because White Rock City is on the opposite side of the Silvermoon Forest. Hong Menglong saw Zhou Ming put his packed bags into the space crystal, so he turned around and walked outside the house.
"Crossing through! Wouldn't that pass through the core area of the Silver Moon Forest and not encounter a heaven-level fierce beast, right?" Zhou Ming knew that his teacher was the "first person below the heaven-level level", and he should not suffer a loss in the face of a ground-level fierce beast, but if he encountered a heaven-level fierce beast, would his teacher be able to handle it......
"Rest assured, the heaven-level beast will not succumb to such a small forest deep within the human realm. Hong Menglong walked out without looking back, and said as he walked, Zhou Ming hurriedly followed, but this time, Zhou Ming knew that his nightmare cultivation had begun, because Hong Menglong was already in the middle of the Tricky Moon Body Method.
"The first step is to train your basic abilities, strength, endurance, and agility, which determine your overall strength, starting with endurance. "Hong Menglong is really meticulous as an instructor, Zhou Ming just followed Hong Menglong, who seemed to be strolling leisurely, and ran out of Silver Moon City, and his cultivation journey officially began.
