Chapter 21: Dual Practice
Under the moonlight, sailboats sail on the calm sea.
The sea breeze stirs the sail rope with a slight creak, which only deepens the silence of the night.
Kelly was dressed in a crisp white nightdress and sat barefoot on her brother's bed.
Close the curtains to block out the moonlight from the portholes.
Kelly's mood was both excited and a little apprehensive.
Entering the world of meditation with her younger brother and practicing together was the most enjoyable experience for her.
If she could, Kelly would be happy to practice with her brother every day.
It's a pity that since the last time the beast went berserk, Eren forbade her to practice, and no longer invited her to meditate together.
Kelly was very disappointed.
Fortunately, she is not a fragile girl.
Soon cheered up, meditated alone with his younger brother on his back, and practiced martial arts.
Kelly wasn't ignorant of the depths, she knew exactly when her bestial bloodline was most dangerous.
In the days around the middle of the month, she would take a break from her practice and take calming drugs to restrain her urge to go berserk.
This sneaky way of practicing can stimulate her to concentrate more.
For more than two months, Kelly's practice has improved by leaps and bounds!
On the third day of boarding, she had a premonition that she was about to break through.
If it goes well, you can be promoted to a higher apprentice within a week!
At this juncture, another piece of good news was received.
After more than two months, Alan finally remembered her sister again.
Invite her to her room tonight and practice together.
By establishing a psychic assembly, help her correct her meditation method and solve the hidden danger of beast madness once and for all.
This was of course a dream piece of good news, but Kelly was still a little uneasy.
I am afraid that my secret practice will be exposed by my younger brother.
When her brother was banned, she was only a junior apprentice.
My brother just lifted the ban today, and she is about to be promoted to a higher apprentice.
My brother is not stupid, he must have guessed that she has not been idle for more than two months!
Kelly was a little nervous.
When my brother finds out, will he blame her for being disobedient?
Kelly is most afraid of disappointing her brother.
As long as she can make her brother happy, she will try to work hard to be a docile and obedient girl like a little sheep.
It's like when she was young, she always wanted to discipline Alan as an obedient and sensible good brother.
……
In fact, Alan has long known about her sister's small movements.
If he stopped it in time, his sister would probably be obedient.
But he didn't want to do that.
He knew that his sister was not a little sheep.
Stubborn and competitive, Kelly has always been such a character.
Even if she volunteered to change herself for the sake of her brother's happiness, Alan was unwilling.
No matter who it is, he is reluctant to let his sister be wronged.
As Ms. Sola said, the spontaneously awakened beast bloodline, relatively speaking, the risk is controllable.
I usually pay more attention to my sister's mental state, and find abnormal signs in time, which is not a big problem.
Fortunately, there has been no major mess.
After two days of experience, Alan has fully figured out the mystery of the "calming meditation method".
I also incorporated some of my own understandings to make this meditation method even more perfect.
When the time was ripe, Alan decided to help her sister change her meditation method tonight.
Blue and silver, two tiny spores, shine in mid-air.
Kelly, inhaling hallucinogenic spores for the first time, felt dizzy, as if drunk.
Alan guides her sister and joins the rally.
Using psychic spores as a medium, two special first-order meditation methods were successively infused into Kelly.
Soothing meditation method.
Enchanted meditation method.
These days, Alan has been experimenting with both meditation methods of "entering the demon" and "calming the nerves".
Tranquility is the main thing, supplemented by demons.
The combination of the two makes the cultivation extremely efficient, and there is no risk of falling into demons or going berserk.
Actually, Alan Ben didn't need to be so troublesome.
The gluttonous system, which automatically monitors the mental state, can completely replace the calming meditation method.
Spending this effort is mainly for my sister...... And maybe Sonia.
The results of his own tests were very good.
Now, he has passed on all these valuable spiritual experiences to his sister.
Two hours, fleeting.
The moon is in the middle of the sky.
In the cabin, the siblings opened their eyes at the same time.
They looked at each other and smiled.
Entering the demon and calming the nerves, Kelly practiced these two meditation methods for the first time, and the effect was immediate, and she was successfully promoted to a higher apprentice!
Alan was very pleased.
My sister's promotion proves that his hard work has not been in vain.
What surprised him even more was that he had just accidentally discovered that there was a special use of the gluttonous system.
He and his sister gathered to meditate and maintain a state of spiritual connection.
In a sense, the siblings have become one.
Therefore, Alan was able to use the system to directly check his sister's status.
Attributes: Physique 17, Agility 17, Spirit 17
This is Kelly's stats after her promotion.
Compare the stats before promotion, gain +1 each for agility and spirit.
In addition, Kelly has added Level 1 Innate Armor.
Although the skin is smooth and delicate, almost no changes are noticeable.
Finally, Kelly also awakens a 0-ring magic - "Flashing Magic".
Within 20 meters, a bright light is created that temporarily blinds a person.
As far as the 0 ring is concerned, it is the best field-controlling spell.
Kelly sat on her brother's bed and yawned heavily.
The double meditation method is very mentally draining for her.
After two hours, I was very tired.
However, Kelly didn't want to go back to her cabin to rest.
Taking advantage of the excitement of the new promotion, he took his brother's hand and chatted endlessly.
Of course, Alan could see that sister was a little careful.
Kelly wanted to test whether her brother knew that she was secretly cultivating by knocking on the side.
Seeing through it is seeing through it, Alan doesn't want to expose it, and he has to pretend to be confused.
After all, he is also a face-loving person.
If you admit to knowing, what happens next?
My sister is not well-behaved, she will not be punished, and she will be even more disobedient in the future, and she will not be able to say it.
punishment, and he was reluctant to pull down his face to reprimand his sister, let alone heavy corporal punishment.
Push her to the bed and spank?
Kelly's hot temper, how can I bear it!
You must pounce on you, show your teeth and claws, and fight yourself.
The problem is, she can't beat it......
Alan was secretly amused.
I was about to get up and send my sister back to the next cabin to rest, when I suddenly received a system prompt.
Didi –
"Do you spend 10 points of potential to try to fuse the third-order 'Tranquility Meditation Method' and the third-order 'Demon Meditation Method' to deduce the fifth-order unnamed meditation method?"
Hiss......
Alan couldn't help but gasp.
Boy!
The more you play, the bigger it gets, right?!
Last time, it was suggested that the fourth-order Demon Meditation Method was fused, and 8 potential points were required for deduction.
Can't push.
This time it has intensified, and it has gone directly to the fifth order!
The number of potentials required is also twice as high as the meditation method.
Exactly 10 o'clock!
I'm sorry, I can't afford to push it!
But then again, he's looking forward to it.
Calm the nerves + enter the demons, how perverted the fusion of meditation methods must be!
If I guessed correctly, this meditation method is mostly a super-enhanced version of both "calming the nerves" and "entering the demons".
Enchanted, providing high efficiency.
Calm your nerves and stay safe.
Two in one, it seems perfect?
Alan feels that he still needs to save some more potential in the future.
If you get 10 points, you can deduce this fifth-order meditation method.
At his current level, he definitely wouldn't need such a high-level meditation method.
But it doesn't matter, you can use the gluttonous system to reduce the dimension and simplify it.
There are fifth-order versions, and there are fourth-, third-, second-order, and first-order versions.
This kind of operation, he has already verified on the meditation method of calming the mind, and he doesn't mind coming a few more times.
Anyway, dimensionality reduction is simplified, and there is no need to consume potential.
Eren was in a reverie for a long time, until his thoughts were interrupted by the sound of snoring in his ears.
Looking down, Kelly was already asleep.
At some point, it took on the form of a panther.
The nightdress is pushed to the feet, and she lies on her side against the wall, revealing her graceful back.
The black and shiny fur is like a smooth horse.
Why do you want to sleep with a big cat?
Alan pondered with a smile.
Maybe my sister thinks it's more comfortable to sleep like this?
Gently cover my sister with the quilt.
I couldn't help but take two handfuls.
Fortunately, my sister slept very deeply and was not woken up by him.
It let out a pleasant grunt.
…… The more you look at it, the more it looks like a big lazy cat!
……
When people drift on the sea, it is inevitable that they will encounter storms.
The first two months of the voyage of the migrant ship from the port of Quint were smooth sailing.
However, there is always a time when good fortune runs out.
On the first Sunday of February, the migrant fleet was unfortunately hit by a tropical storm.
The typhoon roars, and the angry sea is churning!
Twelve migrant ships, like fragile toys.
Struggling through the waves.
Every second, there is a chance of catastrophe!
Allen led the crew and did everything he could to protect the sailboat.
It was the first time he had faced a storm at sea.
Even in the world of warlocks where the powerful are endless.
Nature's majesty is still inviolable!
In the face of angry waves and storms, Alan deeply felt his own insignificance and powerlessness......
In the face of merciless natural disasters, the struggle is futile.
The sailors of the ship prayed in various ways for mercy from the gods who ruled the angry seas and storms.
Alan saw it in his eyes, both sympathetic and helpless.
In the world of warlocks, there are no gods in name, but in fact, there is no shortage of soil for faith.
As long as there is suffering, natural and man-made disasters, there will be no shortage of religious believers in this world.
If the warlock class that rules this world continues to ignore the suffering of the people at the bottom and do not treat the common people as human beings.
Allen has reason to believe that the momentum of the revival of the Church of the Gods is unstoppable.
The crazy expansion of the Beast Worship Cult is a very obvious danger signal!
……
After two sleepless nights, the migrant fleet finally escaped the storm zone.
Afterwards, Alan examines the damage and discovers that a sailboat is missing.
Is it a trek in the storm?
Or is it engulfed in a sea of rage?
It is not known at this time.
Alan finds the captain's "Arcane Seal" and tries to send him a "teleportation".
Unfortunately, there was no reply.
In this case, you can only prepare for the worst first.
The sailing ship and all the immigrants on board were acquiesced...... All of them have been buried in the ocean, and more than 300 people on board have been killed collectively.
Alan led the villagers to observe a collective silence on the deck.
In the days that followed, Alan still didn't give up.
From time to time, they sent letters to try to contact the missing sailboat.
Expect a miracle to see that big ship reappear on the surface of the sea one day.
Unfortunately, there are no miracles.
He never saw the ship again.
……
Fast forward another week, and the fleet is about to cross a dangerous sea full of islands and reefs.
This time, even Ms. Sola was nervous.
Specially transformed into a fairy form, followed Eren on a griffon, and flew to various immigration ships.
Inform the captains to make the following preparations:
The navigator must be in good spirits to avoid hitting the rocks!
All immigrants must stay in the cabin, lock the hatch, and are not allowed to go out!
Sailors on deck were required to plug their ears with cotton yarn, carry brass or horn trumpets with them, and keep an eye out for movements on nearby islands and reefs.
As soon as you hear a woman's singing, blow the trumpet vigorously!
Blow as loudly as you can, and be sure to suppress the singing!
Avoid the ecstasy from the sea and reach the ears of passengers!
The area that the migrant fleet is about to cross is known as the "Siren Islands".
The kraken that lives on the islands and reefs is as beautiful as a peach and a plum, and its heart is like a snake and scorpion!
It is said that when a kraken sees a passing ship, it transforms into a shipwrecked girl.
Singing sad songs, he asked the sailors on the ship for help, and prayed to the good Samaritans to rescue them on board.
As soon as they get on the ship, they will expose their murderous true colors and kill all the passengers on the ship mercilessly.
In some seasons, the Kraken is in estrus, and the desire to kill and rob temporarily gives way to pleasure and reproduction.
The Kraken is also known as the "Siren" and belongs to a subclass of the elven family.
Since ancient times, there have been only females and no males.
Only men of other races can be sought as spouses.
Regardless of the male race of the marriage, the offspring born to a female Siren is usually a female Siren.
There are exceptions to mixed-race children, but not many.
And the mixed-race offspring is also a girl.
The male passengers and sailors on the ships are the best targets for female Sirens' courtship.
Their best courtship is singing.
The siren's singing voice has a mesmerizing magic.
People who are not strong enough will hear this moving song, and they can't help but get close to the Kraken and hug this fire stunner.
After the romance, the Kraken got what he wanted.
So what's the use of keeping a spouse?
Of course, it is to kill and eat meat, so as to save the waste of food.
Most men may be lustful, but they don't want to become romantic ghosts for the sake of overnight joy.
Therefore, when crossing this sea area, you must be strictly guarded!
At dusk, the sea ripples crimson.
Allen's sailboat was at the forefront.
Alan and Ms. Sora, along with her sister Kelly, stood side by side in the bow of the boat.
Nervously staring at the atoll that was exposed in the distance.
Don't let your guard down because you think you're a woman.
The song of the Siren, regardless of gender.
When a woman listens to it, she will be fascinated by the same.
Fortunately, the sailboat has already crossed the most dangerous seas, and not a single kraken has been seen yet.
Just when everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief......
In the distance, there was a sudden sound of singing.
Song?!
Kraken?
The nerves of the crowd tensed again.
Allen's ears were stuffed with two balls of cotton yarn, and he couldn't really hear it.
However, judging from the expressions of my sister and Sora-sensei, it shouldn't be an illusion.
Sora raises her hand and casts "Natural Thaumaturgy".
The green ball of light flew into the sky and exploded with a bang!
All of the eleven migrant ships received the signal.
The sailors, who had been prepared for a long time, blew their horns as if they were brass bands.
The loud sound of the trumpet, echoing over the sea, immediately suppressed the distant singing.
The mysterious singer, seemingly enraged by the sound of the trumpet.
On the calm surface of the sea, a huge whirlpool suddenly appears!
Allen's sailboat bore the brunt of the blow, pulled by the undercurrent of the whirlpool, and slowly approached.
Lady Sora's face changed, and she cried out eagerly:
"Something is wrong!"
"Ordinary Kraken, but you don't have the ability to turn over rivers and seas!"
"I'm afraid we're in big trouble!"
Alan patted her on the shoulder, signaling not to panic.
"Sora-sensei, you and Kelly go back to the cabin, and I'll take care of it here."
In fact, he also pretended to be calm.
Just now, I received a system prompt and detected the breath of "special ingredients"!
