"Mama, I'm back!"

Bidding farewell to the torch of messengers, Lindsay returned to church.

Red Moon still sat in front of the chapel, performing her daily prayers day after day.

Lindsay was heard greeting him.

The old nun only nodded slightly, and did not say anything more.

Compared to the appearance of saving Lindsey three years ago, Red Moon has hardly changed.

Silent and calm.

Lindsay thought for a moment, stepped forward and said:

"Mama, Mr. Finn asked me to bring you a message."

"Finn?" Only then did Hongyue turn her head to look, "He already senses that he is approaching?" ”

Red Moon's words are very straightforward, the so-called road ahead is coming, which refers to death.

In fact, with Finn's physical weakness in the past two years, this is also a tacit fact.

Lindsay could understand Red Moon's seemingly impersonal inquiry.

Because the Awakened have their own essentia in their bodies, it is more difficult to transform into a living corpse than ordinary people. However, when this rare situation occurs, it often brings even more dangerous consequences.

Out of her own duty as a school of death, Red Moon must have asked this question.

Lindsay hurriedly shook his head in denial:

"Mr. Finn, he can still give me a normal lecture today."

"It's just that he asked me to bring you a message that I need to discuss with you about the essentia of the merchant."

When Red Moon heard this, she had already guessed Finn's plan.

She bowed her head slightly and sighed.

"Hey—"

Lindsay heard a hint of sadness in this tone, and hurriedly asked:

"Mama, what's wrong?"

"Is there anything wrong with the merchant's essentia?"

Red Moon stated in a long tone:

"The technique of cultivating essentia is to combine one's own essentia with foreign matter, and then create a magical item that can be cultivated, replacing the essentia system dominated by oneself."

"After this technology was passed on. Some of the soon-to-be-awakened have abolished their skills before they die, trying to leave something more useful than a corpse. ”

“……”

- Teacher Finn is really going to die!

A thunderbolt flashed through Lindsay's mind, and she stood still.

Red Moon moved to the backyard of the church and took out a thin scroll of paper.

"This is the businessman's essentia cultivation method?"

After Lindsay saw it, she reacted:

"I ...... Mama, I'm sorry, I'll send it. ”

Red Moon handed the paper roll to Lindsay:

"Let's have a good chat with Finn."

"Mama, I'll be back later tonight."

Lindsay took the scroll and rushed out of the church without saying a word, and disappeared in front of the church in the blink of an eye.

Red Moon watched as her godson left.

She turned her body and stared at the statue of the School of Death, but finally only shook her head slightly, and said nothing more.

……

On the other side, Lindsay is running wild through the town.

After these three years of training, as well as the addition of life essence, his physique, strength and agility reached 14, 11 and 12 respectively.

According to Lindsay's estimate.

For an average adult human, the physiological attributes should be around 6 points.

His almost double exaggerated attributes bring the ability to surpass the level of top athletes.

At 14 o'clock, for a long-distance run like a marathon, the loss of physical strength is not even as fast as the recovery speed, as long as there is enough food and water, Lindsay can run all day and all night;

With the power of 11 points, it is easy to lift hundreds of pounds of heavy objects;

At 12 o'clock, the agility sprints with all his might, and the speed of 100 meters is even close to 9 seconds.

With the support of this attribute, Lindsay soon returned to Finn's cabin.

Only this time he was flustered.

I even forgot to knock on the door, so I just pushed the door and walked in.

"Lindsay, why are you here?"

Finn was sitting in front of the fireplace boiling water, and when he saw Lindsay's flustered appearance, he immediately asked with concern:

"In such a hurry, what's going on with Hongyue?"

"No, I, you." Lindsay was speechless.

There's no way he's going to ask Finn in front of him, 'Are you about to reach the end of the day?'

But this performance also answered Finn's inquiry from the side.

The botanist understood, and smiled gently:

"Kid, it's okay."

"I'm 74 years old this year, which can be regarded as a long life."

Lindsay was still a little hard to accept:

"But it shouldn't be like that. Although your legs and feet are inconvenient now, your spirit is still good, how can you ...... so fast"

Lindsay wanted to continue to say something, but Finn took the scroll from his hand and shook his head, interrupting Lindsay's reluctance:

"Son, this is a judgment I made with my skill."

"In the life school, the first sublimated ability of our branch is called [Life Instinct], which can give me a strong intuitive premonition, and this year is my last day."

“……”

Inside the small wooden house, there was silence in the air.

Finn's tone of explanation was gentle, but the meaning was categorical and irrefutable.

Lindsey also knew that this was the case, so she couldn't say anything.

Three years of intimacy.

He had long regarded the elder in front of him as his most respected teacher, and now that the teacher was about to pass away, Lindsay really ran out of ideas for a while.

Woowoo woo –

After another moment, the kettle on the fireplace rang.

Finn lifted the kettle and poured Lindsay a cup of hot water:

"Son, drink saliva."

Lindsay almost subconsciously took the glass.

But he didn't take a sip, but looked at Finn in front of him, and asked in a trembling tone.

"You, how long do you have ......"

Finn shook his head, then nodded:

"Lindsay, I know you're a gentle child, and you're going to be sad about it. But from now on, you have to learn to part with people. ”

Speaking of which, Finn seems to have taken on the identity of a teacher.

He continued to exhort earnestly:

"If you have the essence of life, you will enjoy a longer life than ordinary people. This parting will carry out your life, and you need to prepare well so that you will not be knocked down by this feeling in the future. ”

Finn's original intention was for Lindsay to accept human life, old age, sickness and death.

It was the last lesson he could teach Lindsay.

But Lindsay thought of the quality of life essence that makes people live longer, so she hurriedly asked:

"Is it possible for my vital essence to help you?"

Finn smiled and shook his head:

"If this kind of thing could be done, the world would have been in chaos a long time ago."

Then the old man got up from the table, walked slowly to the study, and looked at the bookshelf.

Lindsey put the bookshelves in good order after reading.

But as the owner of this place, Finn couldn't see which books had been read by Lindsay.

Finn's gaze lingered on the bookshelf for a long time before he finally said:

"Child, I know you're not on the road in life. In the future, it will definitely be possible to try to break through the blockade of Montenegro. ”

"I'm sure you can do it."

"So if one day, you can go to Volcano City, or meet other scholars of the School of Life. Please entrust my knowledge to the other party so that this ability will not be lost. ”

Lindsay straightened up, and promised in an extremely serious tone:

"Teacher, I promise you!"

Finn didn't look back, and waved goodbye:

"Son, go home quickly, Lady Red Moon will be worried about you."
