Volume 1 Chapter 13 Sword Training
Strange surroundings, unfamiliar streets, unfamiliar sounds.
Four days have passed, but the sense of detachment has not diminished in the slightest.
However, Liu Xiao still entered the gate of the seventh group on time in the morning.
"Huiheng, good morning. You're here so early. ”
"Good morning. I'm on duty today, so come early and open the door. ”
Yesterday, Ye Qu introduced that the daily working hours are from 8 to 11 o'clock in the morning and from 2 to 6 o'clock in the afternoon, a total of seven hours.
Although he completed all the requirements yesterday, Ye Qu did not arrange other tasks today.
He said he would wait for the team leader.
Not long after Liu Xiao sat down, Jiao Ning arrived at the office, holding a wooden box in his hand, half a meter long.
Huiheng downstairs was also called up, and after everyone arrived, Jiao Ning spoke.
"Last night, the ban on Liu Xiao was lifted, and from today Liu Xiao is the seventh group of regular employees. It's an extraordinary item, given to you by the Temple. ”
In the midst of everyone's congratulations, Liu Xiao stepped forward.
When I opened the box, I saw the cold light of the double blade inside, as well as the word "Guihong" on the booklet.
He was taken by surprise.
First of all, he didn't know what other prohibitions he had, and secondly, the gift of weapons was generally aimed at hunters, let alone transcendent items.
Although the temple does not favor one over the other, the hunters are indeed the front row of the charge, and the casualties are also the highest among all the transcendents, so not only that, but the temple will also arrange for new hunters to train.
As for himself, he naturally won't have it, this is what he learned in the prison world of Feiyuan, and the resources that the miscellaneous family does not have.
In response to these doubts, Jiao Ning explained it roughly, but did not say in too much detail.
Liu Xiao didn't ask much, although he didn't know that the ban existed, but now that it has been lifted, it is a good thing.
As for this sword, it can be regarded as saving him a lot of trouble.
Liu Xiao sat on the seat and gently stroked the sword body with her fingers, feeling cold in her hand.
Because the blade is too sharp and there is no hilt, it is difficult to use it directly with the hand, which can be seen that it is specially made for the extraordinary ability of the imperial object.
Raising the sword with the ability of the Imperial Object, watching it slowly rotate in the air, Liu Xiao secretly said that it was not enough.
Extraordinary abilities are just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go before you can get in touch with more and understand the nature of this world.
It's a tough road.
The hard way home.
Flipping through the palm-sized booklet, it read:
Transcendent item name: Guihong Sword.
Danger Level: Safe, depleted divinity.
Description: A sword without a hilt, 45.7 cm long, weighing 1.2 kg, with a blade 2.8 cm wide, a blood groove 39 cm long, and a feather pattern.
Transcendent characteristics: After obtaining divinity, you can understand human nature, and you can change the size (range 9.1-45.7 cm) at will according to the user's ideas, this change process is for the whole item, and it is impossible to specify the change part.
After that, there are some tricks, most of which are weird attacks that can be achieved by changing the size during the flight, and even how to safely attach the hilt of the sword, change it to handheld mode, and how to use it afterwards.
Liu Xiao stared at the floating Guihong and sent out her thoughts: become smaller.
Nothing happened.
He didn't intend to succeed the first time, so he tried a few more times, but nothing changed.
"Is there something wrong with that?"
I flipped through the booklet and read the text again.
There is no specific record of how the size was changed, but there is a phrase "after the acquisition of divinity".
How do I give it my divinity?
Liu Xiao thought about it and reached out to touch it.
Guihong's "hum" instantly shrank and became a palm-length.
He was startled, his body stepped back, and he drove the chair back to make a "squeak", and Guihong lost control and fell.
Huiheng was on duty at the front desk downstairs, Su Gu also ran down to accompany him, Ye Qu was called by the team leader just now, and only Han Qingyi and Yue Fei were left in the office at this moment.
The two were attracted by the sound and looked back.
Liu Xiao pinched the smaller Guihong Sword and asked them if they knew what was going on, and why they could only change the size by touching it with their hands.
Han Qingyi looked at it and didn't speak, but Yue Fei said: "Divinity can't exist alone from objects. ”
Liu Xiao suddenly recalled that Ye Qu had also introduced it two days ago, and he also used trees as a metaphor.
That means you have to touch it with your hands.
But it also shows that the tips in the booklet don't work.
Maybe it's not that it's completely impossible to use, and the divinity I acquired for the first time won't disappear, maybe it's just that no one has such extraordinary abilities.
Liu Xiao thought about it and decided to focus on what was in front of her.
He controlled Guihong's sword to lie on his fingertips, and as his mind came out, the sword body "brushed" and became longer.
This time he had experience and was no longer intimidated.
After many experiments, it was found that Gui Hong's change in size was extremely fast, almost instantaneous, and if you wanted to change slowly, you need to spend your own mind and careful control.
Soon Ye Qu returned and introduced the follow-up work arrangements to Liu Xiao.
His deep voice is warm and spring-like, and he always makes people feel good.
"The rest is the same on Sunday, if you need to be on duty on Sunday, then change it to a Monday off, of course, you can change it to any day. Starting next Monday, I will spend three hours in the morning learning driving skills, and in the afternoon I will practice my extraordinary abilities with Han Qingyi. Han Qingyi, starting next Monday, all your work every afternoon will be handed over, you are also a hunter, and the team leader asked you to take Liu Xiao to get started. ”
"Yes."
Han Qingyi looked indifferent, but did not refuse.
"Liu Xiao, do you have any questions? The little daughter-in-law gets on the sedan chair, everything has a first time, don't worry, you have something to say. ”
Liu Xiao smiled helplessly, shook her head and said:
"No, I just want to know when I'll be able to check the Extraordinary Events File, and I want to look into my past."
Ye Qu said with a smile: "If you don't say it directly but are suspicious, you don't have to worry about this, when you master your extraordinary ability, you can view all the files at will after you really get started." ”
Well, viewing the file is not a thing that requires a lot of permission, I just need to do my part, and I will naturally get permission.
Liu Xiao was thinking about it, when suddenly a cold and cold voice came:
"Let's get started now, then."
Well?
Liu Xiao didn't expect Han Qingyi to be so serious and responsible, and he didn't delay at all.
The two came to the courtyard and stood still.
Han Qingyi was still wearing a black short, with the upper body only reaching the thighs and a pair of straight-leg pants on the lower body.
I saw him stretch out his right hand into his arms, "brush" twice, and two black shadows flew out of his arms.
It was two black scimitars, more than a dozen centimeters long, curved like a crescent moon.
Cheng Xun, the leader of the sixth group, hid the short sword in his leg, Han Qingyi hid the scimitar in his arms, and Liu Xiao controlled the short sword to fly in front of him.
Han Qingyi is cold, speaks bluntly and has no emotions, if there is any emotion, it is only cold.
So he always speaks simply and directly, and Liu Xiao can be regarded as knowing some of his character, so he doesn't care.
However, the style of the dialogue between the two has completely changed.
"Know the supernatural abilities?"
“…… Know. ”
"How much?"
"Ye Qu's predecessors introduced some common sense."
"Tell me."
"The cause of supernatural abilities is not clear, it is possible for everyone to awaken completely different abilities, and divinity will not be consumed when using the abilities......"
After Liu Xiao finished introducing, Han Qingyi spoke: "Divinity will not be consumed, so it is not an energy. ”
Liu Xiao thought silently for a moment.
Han Qingyi continued: "Energy will be consumed, but neither will divinity. ”
"Isn't that transcendent being able to use his abilities all the time?"
"No, divinity will not be consumed, but something else must be consumed."
Liu Xiao had a flash of inspiration and said, "Mental and physical." ”
Han Qingyi didn't directly explain whether it was right or not, but said directly: "So the three of divinity, spirituality, and physical strength determine a person's strength or weakness." ”
Liu Xiao thought for a moment and said, "So there is a limit to the use of extraordinary abilities?" ”
"Yes, there is a limit because of human limits, not divinity."
"How much divinity is there, and what does it change?"
"Breadth."
"What do you mean?"
"Everyone's ability is not single, there is a match. Huiheng, you come! ”
Han Qingyi suddenly shouted.
Liu Xiao turned her head to look, only to see Hui Heng and Su Gu, who were also on the first floor, hiding by the wall and peeking.
Su Gu was shocked, and dragged Huiheng, who wanted to come over, back and didn't come out again.
Han Qingyi frowned and continued: "After awakening a transcendent ability, if there are more divinities, it is very likely that there will be some abilities related to it. ”
Liu Xiao nodded, he understood, but there were no cases so he couldn't understand exactly.
"It's like a river."
Upstairs came the sound of leaf songs.
Liu Xiao looked up and saw Ye Qu's senior lying on the edge of the corridor looking at this side.
"The water of a river always flows along the river, and the river is our awakening supernatural ability, but if there is too much water, it will overflow and turn all the surrounding places close to the river into rivers."
Liu Xiao understood, and said with a smile: "So the supporting abilities are generally related. ”
"Yes, but the amount of divinity and the amount of extraordinary ability does not directly distinguish between a person's strength and weakness, and the real strength or weakness depends on how you use your ability. Han Qingyi, you can introduce the extraordinary abilities of the team members to make it easy to understand. ”
"Okay."
Han Qingyi agreed, and then said to Liu Xiao: "Yue Fei is a doctor, she is particularly sensitive to the flow of qi and blood in the human body, and she has two abilities, one is to directly see through the human body and see the flow route of qi and blood in the body, and the other is to use divinity to explore the human body. But both of these are manifestations of sensitivity to qi and blood. ”
"Hmm...... What about the others? ”
"Huiheng can take the initiative to foresee the future, and at the same time, he has a strong sense of what is about to happen to him."
It must have a strong sixth sense, right?
Liu Xiao thought for a while, didn't interrupt Han Qingyi, and listened to him continue to introduce: "Su Gu can exercise mind control, and at the same time, he can erase other people's memories. Many psychic supernatural abilities can do this. ”
"The spiritual class also belongs to the miscellaneous family, Huiheng and Su Gu and the team leader, they are all miscellaneous families?"
"Yes, there are many categories of supernatural abilities, such as mind control, royalty, and nature, but they are all used in supernatural events."
For the wild transcendental, the official is still roughly divided according to the direction of cultivation, and there are six categories.
Hunting is an attack, prison is torture, medicine is medical treatment, divination is prophecy, the demon doesn't know what it is, and everything else is called miscellaneous.
"What about Ye Qu's seniors and team leaders?"
"Ye Qu's predecessor only has the ability of prison, and I don't know the team leader."
I don't know if it's a bit too much, Han Qingyi showed some tiredness, and the follow-up words were concise and fast, and after a demonstration, let Liu Xiao practice by herself.
Liu Xiao sighed that a person with a character like Han Qingyi is not suitable to be a teacher.
The reason is obvious, and his subsequent words are the real focus of today.
Liu Xiao stared at the Guihong Sword, letting it slowly rotate around her body under her control, after leaving her field of vision. Sure enough, there was the situation that Han Qingyi said.
Divinity gave him the ability to control objects without using his hands, but this was not a hand after all, and his body did not receive any feedback.
So the visual becomes a very important link, but once the visual link is lost, there will be obscurity.
There is only one way to alleviate it, and that is to practice more.
This is not ineliminable, what the Divinity adds is another, another sense different from the senses of sight, touch, smell, etc.
This sense allows the controlled object to remain in its "senses" at all times, and when it becomes proficient, it can even be used to probe its surroundings.
The way to do this is to try to control the object around you, and whether you can "pick it up" or not, information about the shape and size of that object will appear in your mind.
It's as if divinity has added another set of sights, touches.
Liu Xiao closed her eyes directly.
Since it's a different feeling, there's no need for visual involvement at all.
