Chapter 8: Summoning

In the center of the "Cradle of Death", a strange place is the "Cursed Land" - Marg Village. The wind and sand of the desert swirl around this place every month for fourteen days. If it is strong, the once in ten years strong wind and sandstorm will crush everything in the Cursed Lands to pieces.

So every ten years, Marg Village had to move to another part of the desert for a month before he could return to the Cursed Lands.

Just like the literal meaning, a person who has lived in the Cursed Land for more than ten years cannot live anywhere else. If you leave the Cursed Lands for more than two months, you will start to get seriously ill, and then you will become seriously ill and die.

No one knows where this curse comes from.

…………

Fortunately, little Higg is nine years old this year, and he is still half a year away from the ten years of the curse.

This harsh environment has tempered a tenacious spirit, and watching Xiao Xi pull it out with all his strength again and again, you know what a strong heart is hidden in his fragile appearance.

Following.

Shi Lia took Xiao Xi and buried the bodies of the villagers of Marge Village into a large tomb one by one.

Seeing Xiao Xi burst into tears, Shi Lia's face was calm: "Do you want to avenge Marge Village no matter what?" ”

Xiao Xi didn't speak, just turned to look at Shilia. The face was full of tears, only unwavering hatred. It's hard to imagine that such a horrible hatred could appear on the face of a child.

Shi Lia also seemed to be determined by something, and took a deep breath: "That's good. I'll teach you a kind of magic, but this kind of magic has not even been successfully studied by myself, do you dare to gamble? Xiao Xi could only nod and wait for Shilia to continue explaining.

Shilia exhaled, then said firmly, "I'll try to teach you summoning. ”

As a magician, I am naturally quite curious about the legendary summoning technique!

Hearing this, Nicole asked urgently, "Master, have you finished studying the summoning technique?" Shilia shook his head and sighed, "I can only say that I have never heard of the magic used in it. But vaguely I can see that this summoning technique includes two kinds of magic: space and curse. On the contrary, I don't pay attention to the four elements of magic, so I tried to let Xiao Xi understand it. ”

As he spoke, Shilia pulled a scroll out of his bosom. The curled sleeves are yellow, as if they have gone through thousands of years. Shi Lia sat on the ground with Xiao Xi and explained his knowledge of the [Summoning Secret Scroll] over the years to Xiao Xi, who was only nine years old.

He found that Xiaoxi was extremely talented. But what Vansilla said once, Xiao Xi completely understood that even himself, the strongest magician in the world, was not as smart as him when he was young.

Then he hated the injustice in his heart.

Decade!

If it weren't for Xiao Xi's unaffiliated physique, ten years would be enough for Shi Lia to teach another forbidden spell mage.

…………

After listening to Shilia's explanation, Xiao Xi tried to induce the magic power in her body.

Everyone has magic in their body, and the difference is in the level and attributes.

The red fire element is like a cup of red water, and the fire element in the air condenses the fire element, increasing the water in the cup as if replenishing the water. And the so-called magician level is like the replacement of containers in the body. When the fire elemental fills a cup, the container inside the body will be transformed into a larger container after it has been broken......

Kettles, rivers, seas, etc.

And Xiao Xi, who is only nine years old, has only one-third of the magic power in his body, which is considered a very low magic power. A truly gifted magician may be born with the magic of a cup.

According to Shilia's explanation, Xiao Xi probably understands what it is like to extract mana. Once you feel a little bit of magic extracted, you start to rehearse the movements after many times. The index finger of his right hand was put on his mouth and bitten, bleeding, and then he didn't care about the pain, and his finger drew a six-pointed star array out of thin air.

No response.

…………

"Alas...... It's the same as my previous test, but when I set up a summoning circle, there was no response. As he spoke, he put the scroll in his hand into Xiao Xi's hand: "Since you can't try it after the results, you can accept this scroll, maybe if you have the chance, you can understand it yourself in the future." ”

"Without this scroll, I can concentrate on removing the evil sealing power in my body. Okay, it's time for us to leave this cursed place, after all, Xiaoxi, you can't leave this place if you live for another half a year, if you can't leave, how can you help your family avenge it? ”

Looking at this village surrounded by wind and sand, my father's knife was also left here.

One day, I'll be back.

Young Higg looked firmly at the ruined village of Marg, and then cruelly turned away.

At this moment, the summoning scroll in his arms glowed with a silver light that no one noticed.

…………

The group of three people walked to the southernmost part of the cradle of death and settled, and Hig asked puzzledly, "Uncle?" Why come to the southernmost side? Father said that the south is the closest to the Flame Empire, aren't you afraid that people will find us? ”

Shi Lia smiled and said, "It is precisely because this is the closest realm to the Flame Empire that the nearest city, [Fire Sun City], has the best swordsman academy in it. Since you don't have the talent for magic, you have to seek strength from martial arts. ”

As soon as Higg heard that there was another way to become stronger, his eyes glowed and murmured, "Martial arts...... Can it really give me great power...... Shi Lialang laughed: "Martial arts is no less than magic, the fighting qi and magic in the way of the sword are just two different release methods, in the final analysis, they are all the power in the body, just because the attack range of magic is larger than that of fighting qi, and magic is more amazing, there is no difference at all." ”

Higg had a look of excitement on his face, and immediately exclaimed, "Then without further ado, hurry up and go to Fire Sun City!" With that, he jumped to the blazing south.

Shilia and Nicole smiled at each other, and followed Higg slowly south.

…………

Located on the border of the Flame Empire, Fire Sun City is the closest city to the cradle of death in the Flame Empire.

Because occasionally some low-level demonic beasts invade Fire Sun City due to hunger, there are not many residents in the city, and if you compare it with the main city of the Fire Empire, Fire Sun City, Fire Sun City is simply not worth the sun. However, Firesun City has never been worried about not having guests.

Because every year, students from all the big cities of the Flame Empire come to study in the Swordsman Academy in Fire Sun City.

The Fire Sun Swordsman Academy is like a holy place in the hearts of swordsmen.

The three Sword Saints in the current continent all graduated from the Fire Sun Swordsman Academy. The admission standards of the Fire Sun Swordsman Academy are extremely strict, and there are five Sword Grandmasters in the academy who are close to the strength of the Sword Saint to teach in the academy.
