Deep in the Nightsong Forest, on the edge of a swamp. This is already an inaccessible place, and in addition to the towering trees and dense plants, the only living creatures that can be seen are the beasts and monsters that live here. However, in a clearing on the edge of the swamp, a small, chalek-looking log cabin stood, and a small courtyard surrounded by a fence was planted with some plants to decorate the courtyard elegantly and full of life.

Several fruit apes watched curiously from the periphery of the courtyard, and a few even tentatively wanted to climb the fence of the courtyard and climb in. But every time they approached the fence, there always seemed to be an invisible force blocking them, making these apes suspicious and curious.

Suddenly, a dense patch of grass not far from the clearing suddenly shook, as if some vine-like plant was approaching. However, the tenacity of the parasitic vine determines that it is difficult for them to be removed, and in the end, the creature on the other side seemed to be a little impatient, and in the next moment, a cyan wind blade more than one meter long suddenly shot out from the other side, cutting this parasitic vine in half, although there was a little girl who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, wearing a mage robe, and walked over to remove the severed parasitic vine.

The fruit apes who were curious and tentative around the hut were suddenly frightened by the wind blade and the little girl who came out. I saw them roaring and running towards the tree next to them in a panic, during which a small fruit ape almost fell from the branch because of panic, but fortunately it was caught by the mother ape and held in her arms.

The group of more than a dozen fruit apes watched the little girl coming out of the woods with some fear from the tree, perhaps feeling that they had reached a safe position, and several fruit apes also demonstratively shouted at the little girl in warning.

'Well, fruit apes? It's really not common in this area. It just so happens that I am a little tired of always eating meat and staple foods during this time. After thinking about it, the little girl took out a few bottles of green liquid from one of the storage rings in her hand, opened the caps and carefully placed them on the ground, and then used a very remote magic on the orchard in the tree.

I saw a very faint light link her fruit ape together, and then she relied on this link, pointed to the bottle on the ground, and then made a few sounds similar to the sound of the fruit ape's call. Suddenly, the fruit ape that was linked to her danced and shouted.

The two sides exchanged ideas for a while as if they were vendors and guests in the vegetable market, and then the fruit ape in charge of communication danced and shouted a few times to his companions. I saw that the remaining apes quickly turned around and jumped on the nearby branches after hearing this, and disappeared in an instant.

It was less than five or six minutes later that the fruit apes that had left came back from the forest with a shout and jumped on the branches, but each of them carried several different fruits. The apes carefully ran to the bottom of the tree, piled up the various fruits in one place, and then ran back to the tree.

The ape, who was in charge of communication, saw this and jumped off the tree. Cautiously approaching the bottles of green liquid, after picking up one of the bottles, he dipped his finger in the green liquid and put it in his mouth to taste it, and then it roared with some excitement. When the other apes heard its cry, they also ran down from the tree in high spirits, and came to the side of the ape and roared around the bottles.

'Okay! You've seen it. Then our deal is over. If you want this fruit wine next time. Then go ahead and talk about it, come and trade it with me. The number is still the same as this time. The little girl smiled when she saw the apes' movements.

After seeing the ape make an approving move, she walked over to the pile of fruits, which were not small, and put them away with the storage ring, which made the ape in the distance roar again when he saw it. But after looking at the curious apes, she turned around with a smile and walked to the door of the hut, stretched out her hand and pushed open the door of the small courtyard and walked in.

But after she entered the courtyard. After seeing a few pots of plants that had obviously been relocated, he frowned and tilted his head and said to himself, "Strange! I remember putting the sunflower and the dead leaf fruit on the other side before I went out?"

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she had an excited expression on her face, and hurriedly pushed open the door of the hut and ran in. The outside looks like a small hut, but the inside is surprisingly spacious. The little girl excitedly ran to the door of a room, pushed it open and looked inside. After seeing the figure that she had been missing, she screamed happily and pounced.

'Teacher!' the little girl trotted over to a figure sitting next to her desk.

The owner of this figure is Xu Yue, who has just returned from the earth. And from the perspective of the little girl's appearance, she can also see that she has a lot in common with the little girl Ellie he adopted at the beginning.

After the battle between the Kingdom of Xia and the trolls, Xu Yue did not choose to stay in Black Rock City to learn magic. Instead, after using the speed reading of this zero-level magic to record enough knowledge from the Magic Guild, he went directly to the depths of the Night Song Forest. With Kenneth's carry-on hut that he could take with him and camp at any time, he learned magic while exploring the Nightsong Forest. This is mainly because he can accumulate spell casting and combat experience by fighting with Warcraft in the process, and on the other hand, he can also identify and learn many magic plants and materials in combination with reality. After all, it is still very difficult to truly learn magical materials science if you rely on books alone.

Ellie's little girl as his apprentice to magic. As a matter of course, he took him with him to teach. Although he himself can only be regarded as half a bucket of water, with a large amount of resources (inheritance orbs) and two years of desperate study, it is no problem to teach Ellie a magic apprentice.

After two years of study, Ellie had only just reached the level of an advanced magic apprentice. This is the result of Xu Yue's deliberate suppression. At the beginning, he had enough of the loss of the foundation and the rapid advancement of his strength, so he didn't want Ellie to follow his old path. So for more than two years, he has focused on cultivating Ellie on the study of magical knowledge. He was going to use the traditional method to let Ellie lay a solid enough foundation in the magic apprenticeship stage first, and then move on to the first level of magician.

In order to allow Ellie to experience magic and learn enough knowledge and experience from it, and also to fill in the gaps in magic and alchemy, he has done a lot of magic in the past two years, and began to learn how to make magic potions and magic equipment. However, up to now, he had only been able to make some of the most rudimentary magic potions and some very crude zero-level magic equipment. The amount of magic materials consumed during this period can be said to be a huge amount if exchanged for gold coins, but with the materials that he had looted from the trolls before and did not sell, it was enough for him to feel no pressure.

Xu Yue was not frustrated by this. He just wanted to increase his experience through guò practice and practice. You must know that as a magician, it is impossible to learn only from books, and if you do not do enough magic to verify what you have learned. Even the most talented people will stop on the path of magic.

After more than two years of uninterrupted learning with Xu Yue, Ellie has laid a solid foundation. After the end of the first year, Xu Yue allowed her to go out into the forest alone to find all kinds of magical plants and other magical materials. Of course, the premise was that she couldn't be too far away from Kenneth's cabin, and Xu Yue gave Ellie a large amount of magical equipment that he had returned, including the Ice Dragon's Breath, which he had previously used as his strongest talisman and attack.

Relying on these high-level equipment, Ellie can be said to have little real danger in the Nightsong Forest. After more than two years ago, the battle in the Forest of Songs of Nightsong. Several high-level demonic beasts in the center of the Nightsong Forest were almost killed and injured by the battle-fighting Yu "Bobo", and one or two high-level demonic beasts that survived also fled the Nightsong Forest in horror. Almost the highest of the remaining demonic beasts is only level six, and Xu Yue, the only three sixth-level demonic beasts, probably knows that he has instructed Ellie not to go there. In order to be insured, he also gave Ellie a seventh-level protective scroll that he bought with a lot of money, and if he was really in danger, there was no one in the Nightsong Forest who could threaten her after using it.

Ellie was still a little apprehensive and scared when she was first allowed to go out. After doing it, he dared to enter the forest accompanied by Xu Yue. But after a little time, now with the magic equipment on her body will not encounter any real danger at all, the little girl has become more and more bold, and later even often runs alone to the forest to collect magic materials.

What is surprising is that after she learned a zero-level magic called alien communication, she actually became familiar with many animals in the forest. The original function of the zero-level magic of heterogeneous communication was only to make humans and animals feel each other's simple feelings, and it was far from being able to make the two sides truly communicate. But Ellie seems to have a great talent for it. It was possible to rely on this zero-level magic to communicate with animals in some very simple ways.

After this point, Xu Yue even considered whether she should let Ellie give up her path as a mage and become a druid. Such a brilliant talent is not a waste of druids. However, after hearing his mention, Ellie actually tugged at the corner of his clothes with tears in her eyes and stared at him with pitiful eyes, and finally made him have to give up this idea.

However, although she can't be a druid, Ellie is not bad at communicating with animals. After learning about the habits of some animals, she even found some items that she could trade with animals, and relied on these items to exchange many useful things from the animals of the forest. Among them, from ordinary fruits to magical plants, and even some of the more precious materials can be exchanged. This made Ellie far more efficient at collecting magic materials, and in the end, Xu Yue simply handed over most of the collection of materials to Ellie.

Like the previous deal between Ellie and the fruit ape, it is a typical example. The fruit ape is a first-level magical beast that grows in the Night Song Forest, but the strength of this magical beast is not strong, and its temperament is rare in the temperate of the magical beast. This monster is named after its penchant for eating all kinds of delicious fruits, and they don't eat anything but delicious fruits. And fruit apes sometimes grow some fruit trees on their own.

Ellie swapped some of the sap from the branches of the Bubble Tree for the apes. The sap of the foam tree is one of the favorite things of the fruit apes, but the bark and branches of the foam tree are very tough, and it is difficult for the fruit apes to break through the outer bark to absorb the sap inside. And that's nothing to a magician with a lot of means. It's not the first time Ellie has traded with the apes.

After two years of intense study, Xu Yue simply let Ellie live alone in the Night Song Forest in order to relax his spirit, known as exercising the little girl's ability to survive independently, and he himself ran back to the earth for a two-month vacation. He wasn't worried about Ellie's safety at all. In the more than a year since Ellie did start going out alone, she shook her head and relied on the equipment on her body to become a tyrant in the nearby forest, except for two or three sixth-level demonic beasts that were no longer nearby, the other demonic beasts were bullied by her relying on the magical equipment on her body. Now some of the nearby monsters are running desperately when they see her. Coupled with the ability to communicate with animals simply, it is difficult for the little girl to encounter any danger, even if she encounters the many means left by Xu Yue, she can safely get out of the forest.

'Teacher!''ve been gone for two months!' Ellie misses you. In the past two months, Ellie has collected a lot of magical plants, and handed them to Alice to put in the warehouse. Ellie lay on Xu Yue's lap with a bit of coquettishness.

Alice is a female-shaped puppet from the four humanoid magic puppets that Xu Yue automatically equipped with when she first purchased Kenneth's carry-on hut, which is responsible for collecting magical plant and animal materials. After entering the Night Song Forest, Xu Yue woke up the magic puppets with three functions except for Jarvis, the butler magic puppet.

Among them, the mage-type puppet that can assist in magic is called Merlin. Taken from the legendary legendary mage of King Arthur on Earth. And the female puppet who can assist in collecting plant and animal magic materials is named **Lisi, this name has no special meaning, but Xu Yue happened to listen to the piano music Beloved Alice at the time, so he took it casually. The last brawny puppet capable of collecting magic minerals was named Optimus Prime, a completely lazy name from the Transformers.

It is precisely by relying on these four magic puppets with different functions that Xu Yue has been able to live so freely in the Night Song Forest in the past two years. Otherwise, with his self-care ability, he will bring another girl. In this kind of inaccessible primeval forest, I am afraid that even with Kenneth's portable hut and such a handy tool, I am afraid that life will be a mess.

Xu Yue smiled and touched Ellie's little head and asked with a smile: "Have you completed the homework assigned to you before I left?" ‘

Ellie raised her little head a little proudly and said, "I've finished learning the basic properties of the elements, you can test me as much as you like, teacher." I have solved the math problems you left a month ago, Merlin has already read it, there is nothing wrong, you can call Merlin for verification. I also read half of the detailed explanation of the spell model and the first solution of the magic formula. ‘

Xu Yue looked at Ellie with some surprise, obviously the little girl's progress was a little beyond his expectations. After asking a few questions to investigate. He didn't really relax during this time, and he finished his arrangement.

I said when I was leaving, if you can finish my homework, I'll give you a reward when I get back. Then I'll give you the reward now. Xu Yue said to Ellie with a smile.

After he finished speaking, he took out a rectangular box directly from the storage ring, and a beautifully shaped staff appeared in front of Ellie's eyes. The surging magical elements on the magic battle let anyone who knows how to know that this staff is a level 5 magic equipment.

In terms of fighting style, Ellie inherited Xu Yue's usual equipment crushing flow. It's usually after putting on a magic shield that the opponent can't break. before he began to use various magic combinations to attack the target. Although Xu Yue emphasized the importance of combat experience and skill in the process of teaching, he himself is an RmB fighter who is accustomed to crushing opponents with equipment, so it is really not convincing to say that he should pay attention to skills and experience.

But fortunately, Ellie has always been very serious about his words. Although when she goes out, Ellie is used to putting a high-level shield on herself in battle, but for the accumulation of spell-casting skills and experience, the little girl has been very active in exercising, so in terms of combat experience and skills. Ellie is definitely no worse than a magic apprentice of the same level, or even much higher.

Ellie happily picked up the equipment that was obviously a high-level staff, and looked at it in her hand. The staff was made with Ellie's age and the girl's preferences clearly in mind. The entire staff is made of pink heavenly wood, with angel wings topped with several blue gems. Immediately filled the staff with elements that the little girl liked.

The name of this staff is Angel Wings, and it is not only able to increase magic by 20% in spell casting, but it is also a constant five-level control of the magic light cage four times a day, and a five-level platform attack magic light judgment three times a day. Finally, there is also a constant two-level five-level Magical Light Restoration Praise twice a day. With the cooperation of this staff, your shortcomings in support and attack are filled. Xu Yue smiled and touched Ellie's head and said.

Ellie thanked him happily, then looked up at Xu Yue and asked, "Teacher, you won't leave again after you come back." I was so bored for the past two months that I could only talk to the animals in the forest. Jarvis: They don't talk much at all, and they suffocated me. ‘

Xu Yue smiled and tapped her little brain and said, "If you put all your mind on learning magic, you won't be so boring." But I really don't plan to leave when I return this time, and our seclusion in the Nightsong Forest should be over. My spiritual power has reached the peak of the second level, and I can't suppress the growth of my spiritual power, and when I come back this time, I am ready to advance. Once the promotion is complete, then we will return to Black Rock City. ‘

'Great!' I haven't seen Uncle Ivo in a long time, and the last time we saw him was four months ago when he came to see you, and we've only been here for two days. I'm still a little weird about him. Ellie said happily.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and the magic puppet butler Jarvis pushed the door and walked in, he came to Xu Yue and Ellie, saluted respectfully and said, "Master, your room has been cleaned up for you, you can go in and live in at any time." In addition, according to your orders, the room for meditation has been prepared for you, and you can enter it at any time to advance. ‘

Xu Yue nodded and said to Ellie beside him, "Don't hesitate, I'll take advantage of the spirit to advance at its peak." It is estimated that it will take a short time. During this time, Ellie, you are in charge of Kenneth's Cabin Defensive Core. Turn the defensive circle fully on. Don't let the outside world bother me. ‘

Speaking of business, Ellie's little face also became stern. For the defensive core of the hut, she has long learned to operate. And as an escort for her teacher's promotion, her attitude is even more serious. In general, as long as the promotion of a second-level mage is completely prepared, there is basically no danger. Xu Yue walked into the meditation room after explaining a few words.

Two days later, Xu Yue quietly returned to Black Rock City with Ellie. The process of his promotion can be said to be calm, but it took more than half an hour to advance to the third-level mage.

After coming to the residence of the Aiwo Chamber of Commerce, Xu Yue quietly walked into the door of the Chamber of Commerce. Now, Ivo's Chamber of Commerce is not the same as before, just a bunch of tents in a fenced-off clearing. After getting the 10 million gold coins given by Xu Yue, relying on the abundant funds, Ai Wo frantically expanded the strength of his chamber of commerce.

Because of the fact that Xu Yue, the honorary marquis, was behind him, the upper echelons of Black Rock City provided great convenience for Iwo's Chamber of Commerce. After more than two years of rapid housing exhibitions, Ivo's Chamber of Commerce has become one of the largest in Black Rock City. And the number of the chamber of commerce's escort team has gradually expanded to 10,000 in the past two years, of course, they are nominally Xu Yue's personal territory development army.

After Xu Yue came to Ivo's room, and after the two of them had been spying for an afternoon, the entire Chamber of Commerce suddenly became busy. The convoy, consisting of four thousand men, began to prepare and leave Black Rock City. And Xu Yue quietly took Ellie before and left first. For him, the territorial development plan that had been prepared for two or three years could finally be carried out.
