Once again, the sun rises from the mountains in the east and shines into a large neat garden. This ornate aristocratic garden sits just east of the Duke's seven or eight sprawling castles, and the soft morning sun illuminates every leaf, giving them a jade-like texture that is lovely.

Ivana walked slowly in the garden in another colorful noble dress, like a messenger of spring elegantly inspecting the thriving green earth and pink and red embellishments. But she herself frowned, early this morning, my father and Grandpa Povodi went to the military castle to discuss important matters, and they have not returned yet. And his brother has been training border troops outside for many years to guard against the sub-giant tribe that may attack at any time. The brilliant sun shone on the loneliness in her heart, but who could understand it? Mother was a very devout believer in Mother Earth Goddess, and spent almost half of her time on prayer, charity, and theological study, but she still did not obtain a zero-order divine skill! But this did not neutralize her enthusiasm, but made her spend more time on the construction of her faith, and three days ago she went to the temple of the mother earth goddess who was as magnificent as a fortress not far away, and never returned. As for her children's aspirations and hobbies, she can't understand them at all, and even has some objections. It's just that out of the mother's sense of tolerance and the character of the believer of Mother Earth God, she didn't interfere with it. My father, on the other hand, always had a dull face, and rarely saw him smile. He's always busy and always has to meet all kinds of people. From the little priest from the ruined aristocracy to the surrounding grand dukes and wealthy counts, to all kinds of strange people and even powerful bandits, he always entertained them very modestly and used various methods to make these guests happy. It seems that his only pleasure is to please those of lower rank than him with the supremacy of a dignified duke. This puzzled Ivana.

But what's worse is that they are always busy, always have a lot to do, always have no time to enjoy the poems they make, and always have no time to accompany themselves to enjoy the song and dance drama. In this way, no one has ever cared about their hearts. Rich and carefree, it is as if you are living within a gorgeous high wall, and no one can talk to you. It's like a shrub garden about one person tall around it. Neatly arranged to create a complex and abstract picture. But you can't feel any inner beauty when you walk in it, you just feel like you're walking in an intricate green labyrinth that is cut off from each other. Admiring the thick and gorgeous appearance, but enduring the loneliness of the heart.

In fact, his ideal is to be a troubadour, walk on the vast land, and use his talent and singing voice to win the praise of everyone. But for a nobleman, this is extremely absurd! Even if you have this talent, you can't stand on the stage like a commodity and be judged by others. Dignity is not only your own, but also the whole family.

The sensible Ivana understands this, she doesn't want to learn from those wayward delicate young ladies and let the family worry about it for the sake of playing tricks. So I can only suppress my hobbies and emotions. Be a noble lady who is high up. Like a numb statue, it was worshipped and looked up at.

Luckily, I met Master Navia, who was the only one who could communicate with him, even though he was too old to write and write poems that were both crappy and contrived. It's just a little clumsy in poetry.

Thinking of this, she smiled softly, and slowly walked under a large tree, admiring the touching scenery of the bright breeze blowing the leaves and the tips of the grass, which only a poet's heart can experience.

If only Navia could understand it, so that she wouldn't have to go to great lengths to revise his poems every time.

I only hope that one day, this lover can express his love to himself in the most beautiful poetry. At that time, no matter what he wanted to do, he would not refuse.

Ivana smiled shyly.

"Sister. What are you laughing at?" Hermina was like a mischievous kitten among the flowers, silently appearing in front of her.

"Ahh

Hemina was still wearing the curvaceous Arcane Leather Armor, exposing her perfectly seductive figure to the bright sunlight. She smiled and said, "Teacher Bowardi never came back. I couldn't hold back at the training ground, so I walked around this garden, and I happened to meet you. You're so beautiful in this dress, even more beautiful than yesterday. It's really like the moving goddess Shuna. ”

Ivana asked suspiciously, "Teacher Powardi is not here to celebrate my father's birthday, is it? ”

Hamina shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know very well, I heard that our High Council of Steelheart Land is going to set up a training ground here to recruit the children of nobles to learn our martial arts. Maybe it's because I'm afraid of conflict with Giffen, so I don't want to make a big fuss. ”

Giffin City is not only a training ground for mages, but also a training base for arcane soldiers. In fact, most mage academies have an arcane academy camp on the outskirts of the grounds. After all, many people can't learn third-order arcane art in their lifetime, and in order to make a living, choosing to become an arcane warrior is also a good way out. At least not to let the arcane skills you learn go to waste. And there is a lot of need for such people in the army, because they can not only engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat like ordinary warriors, but also use some spell tools to replace the role of mid-to-low-level mages. And the commission is also much less than that of a real mage.

Although the Steel Heart Flow only recruits the children of nobles, and the Arcane Elite Training Base only recruits those who know the arcane, there is no obvious conflict between the two. However, the steel heart flow is very close to the Austrian Federation, so the independent development of Giffen City is somewhat repulsed by it.

The two chatted as they walked towards the special pavilion with long pillars of the dome, and the moment they entered the pavilion, the breeze blew Ivana's long brown hair and rainbow-like dress, as if the goddess had fallen into the pavilion.

Hamina was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to come back to her senses and exclaim, "Sister." Your beauty is truly as elusive and indescribable as the legend suggests. Hee-hee, but if my brother were here, he would have made a hundred poems in praise of you!"

That's when Ivana remembered. Another purpose of their visit this time was to discuss the marriage between the two territories, and their hearts suddenly tightened. Although it has long been heard that Hermina's brother is a very handsome man, and he is very accomplished in poetry. But now I have Navia. How can you tolerate others, even if Navia is not so satisfying. But he is still his only lover.

So he smiled reluctantly and asked, "Then what is your brother doing now?"

Hemina smiled playfully and said, "He's preparing a special gift for you, sister." I'm sure I'll be able to surprise you then!"

The two of them just stood in the gazebo and chatted slowly, unconsciously the sun was rising. The wind is blowing louder and stronger. Other leaves and shrubs swayed. It's quite imposing.

Ivana was a little tired from standing, so she said, "Let's go and sit down on the side of the stone chair." But Hemina laughed twice like a silver bell and said, "The sun is big there, so be careful to expose my sister's delicate skin." You wait, I'll move it. ”

Ivana was dumbfounded, the stone chair was a beautiful bench carved from a single block of marble! and it was so big and thick that four strong men could barely move. But before she could ask, Hermina had already jumped six or seven paces away, and jumped to the long stone chair like a gazelle in a few long jumps. She shook the rocking chair slightly. It seemed to be looking for the center of gravity, and then squatted down and raised his hands vigorously, and actually carried the heavy stone chair on his shoulders and walked over, as if he was moving an ordinary wooden bench!

Ivana covered her pretty little mouth and watched stupidly as she walked up to the big pavilion step by step, and then easily put down the stone chair. The stone chair touched the stone ground, and there was a heavy and muffled sound of "bang" in an instant.

Hear her smile and say, "Sister." You may be seated. Ivana was amazed and asked, "Why are you so strong?" They say that all of you are monsters with strength like oxen and speed like swallows. I used to think it was nonsense, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

Hemina smiled: "What a monster, my body has become ferocious, and of course my strength is greater than that of people." ”

Ivana still didn't believe it: "But you look too relaxed, as if it doesn't weigh much." Not to mention people, even cows don't have such a strong strength. I think the rhinoceros is pretty much the same!"

With a smile on her pretty face, she gently took her sister's hand, sat down on the stone chair together, and said, "Indeed, with my current strength, it is possible to easily carry it here." That's why I used the special technique of steel core flow just now. I increased my strength several times in a short period of time to have that extraordinary effect. ”

Ivana was suddenly intrigued: "Is the skill the power of the legendary Midgar, where does this power come from, and what is the magic? Can you tell my sister?"

Hemina smiled sweetly, "Of course." We can't ask for it, and I really wish that more people could know about our genre, so that people don't look like monsters when they go out. She slowly introduced in a crisp and moving voice: "The power of Midgar in our school is not a power, but a general term for a function that is latent and untapped in the human body itself. This function can coordinate the movement of muscles and muscles in the function, greatly enhancing the attack power, but the deeper the practice, the more attention is paid to the potential exploration of internal organs, which can intentionally temporarily improve the body's tenacity, will and reflex evasion ability. Yesterday, my junior demonstrated some of the initial abilities at the training ground, and this stage is called the penetration layer, which means that the power of the whole body is connected. Focusing on one point and exploding in a split second, it can be extremely destructive. ”

Ivana let out an incomprehensible "oh" and asked, "Even yesterday I pierced the armor made of stainless steel with a javelin? ”

Hemina smiled and said, "Sister, don't be fooled by them, in fact, those two javelins also have tricks, and they are not ordinary wooden javelins at all." It was made of black iron from the tip to the tail! It weighed more than some warhammers. So just increase its speed to pierce armor, just like piercing armor with a sharp nail-headed hammer. ”

Ivana continued to ask, surprised, "Throw the hammer?" I heard that the speed was so fast that I saw a black shadow flashing. Together, there's so much power?"

Hermina said with a little pride, "Of course! can produce amazing results. It's just that the average person can't do that. Either their muscles are stiff and tense, thinking that this will be the way to exert the strength of their whole body. As everyone knows, it is impossible to transmit power to the muscles and body tissues that are really needed. Instead, they are wasting their strength, or they use some of their muscles violently, which reduces the exertion, but the muscles that are not exerting themselves are restricted. For example, the average person throws the javelin only using the strength of the lower back, the back of the shoulders and the arms, and the other muscles hardly produce a real boosting effect. However, our steel heart flow is different, every movement uses the strength of almost all the muscles in the body! Just like in the wrist wrestling, others only use the muscles of the arms and part of the back of the shoulder, but I use the muscles of the whole body to fight against him. Of course, when exerting force, it is also necessary to use a special way to transmit the power of each muscle to the heavy black iron javelin, which is what we call a wild thunder throw. In this way, the impact of the moment of the attack can be comparable to that of a rhinoceros, and of course it can pierce the armor. ”

Seeing Ivana's sudden realization, she said, "Not only that, but we also have a way to stimulate potential power." ”

Ivana became interested again, and hurriedly asked with a smile: "Potential power? Do you mean that ordinary people burst out with extraordinary power under special circumstances?"

Hamina nodded at the beautiful face of the blonde shawl and said, "Yes, that's the ability." It's just that ordinary people can't control when these powers are used. Most people can't even use it for a lifetime, but we can use the power of Midgar to use it at will. Let your strength increase exponentially in a short period of time. You see, I just moved this stone chair using this method. However, after using this ability a few times, it will be very tiring. ”

Ivana laughed, "Isn't that the same as the fury of a savage fighter?"

Hemina pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "How can it be? But they are inspired by the violent love xΓΉ, and we use the power of Midgar to arouse. This one is completely different. They run out of strength as soon as their berserk is over, and we can call on them at any time. Much better than them. ”

Ivana smiled softly and asked, "What about the second level?"

Hemina suddenly became excited. He took the other party's slender and feminine white slender hand and said, "Sister, do you know that in fact, the foundation of our steel heart flow is in this second layer of ability. The first level penetrates the layer, although it can make people have great strength and killing effect, but it is not comparable to a ferocious elephant. And no matter how strong the elephant is, as long as it is charmed, it will not have any threatening power. So it's useless to have empty strength in a really high-level battle. When faced with various spells, the most important thing is to resist all kinds of adverse effects. ”

Ivana asked softly, "Then you have developed the ability to resist spells?" is the strong ** magic resistance that the troubadours preached?"

Hemina giggled triumphantly, "That's all made up! Didn't I say it? It's a temporary and massive increase in the body's strength, will, and reflex action, so as to avoid the effects of spells. Like Mr. Povodi, when he was concentrating, he was petrifying ordinarily and dominating humans or something. It's completely useless to him. ”

Ivana covered her beautiful lips and exclaimed, "It turns out that the human body's resistance can reach such a level? Why have my arcane teachers never mentioned it to us? Sister, how did you develop the power of Midgar?"

The handsome and handsome Hermina sternly said, "Midgar's power is not something that can be produced by training, it needs to be inherited. Seeing that Ivana was very puzzled, she explained: "Midgar's power is a potential ability that everyone has, but it can't automatically awaken and exert its effects. It must be awakened by the power of another Midgar that has been formed. For example, my Midgar power was awakened by Mr. Powardi. He pressed his hand on the top of my head, and then used the power of Midgar in him to awaken the power of Midgar that had formed in my body, but had not yet awakened. This process is also very energy-consuming, and after Mr. Powardi awakened the power of Midgar for me, I rested for a month before I recovered. And after waking up, this function must be cultivated in a certain way. It will slowly change your body. ”

Povodi, who was already over 50 years old, was walking with the duke in the fortified military ramparts next to the castle. There are no colorful glass windows, only thick bluestone walls, no fragrant flowers and bonsai, strong and fire-resistant oak doors and windows, and no gold and silver decorations, only a vast cold air.

The two walked into a tall room and followed a curving hallway. Walk through one heavily guarded gate after another. Walk through one tall interconnected room after another. I saw three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry here, on the ceiling. There are also various detection magic devices installed on the four walls, and even if a mosquito flies in, it will be detected.

After about a dozen doors, they entered a pie-shaped room. The soldier closed the thick oak door, which could not be spilled by water. The room is surrounded by a thick circle of solid wood bookcases and shelves, like a place to store military texts. Then two able-bodied soldiers lifted open a bookcase. A low stone door appeared on the wall, with a purple rune the size of a palm on it. The Duke pressed the rune, and the stone door sank into the wall and moved away on its own.

A long tunnel appeared in the wall, which was illuminated by a magic lamp that never went out, but there was a warmth, not the slightest sense of coldness. After the two walked inside, they closed the stone door again, and the sound of moving the bookcase outside came again, and the two soldiers restored the bookcase again. In this way, no one knows that there is a secret passage behind it.

In the large and bright underground chamber, the blue-white magical halo on the walls illuminates an old face immersed in fantasy. He stood quietly with his old wrinkled eyes half-closed, as if savoring a wonderful future.

Wearing a strong suit, Po Wodi walked in gently like a cat, smiled and took the lead in speaking: "Spes, you cowardly cat of nine lives, you dare to bargain on behalf of Ares, the god of war of Yongwu?"

The two old men laughed and hugged each other, and Speth laughed and exclaimed, "Oh, light, light, don't break my old bones." I don't want to be that poor rhinoceros. ”

Po Wodi joked: "Aren't you blessed by the goddess of luck? Thirty years ago, you were besieged by five fourth-order mages, and they all let you run away unscathed. Now you're only afraid that your ability to slip away is even stronger, why are you afraid of me?"

A strange smile appeared on the face of the old priest Speth: "Hey, I'll slip away." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, an irresistible force suddenly sprung up in his body, pushing Povodi outward. Povodi felt as if he had saved a rapidly expanding ball of steel, completely uncontrollable! His chain-cluded hand was almost torn off by this unspeakable strange force.

In an instant, he snorted coldly, and his whole body shook again. Immediately dissipated a strange energy from his brain. Once again, their hands strangled each other like steel chains. He laughed and said, "Rejection technique? ”

This time, Spes was really out of breath, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't let me lose, I admit defeat." Let's get down to business now. Alas, your Midgar's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and you can actually increase your mental ability to an astonishing level in such a short time, and easily exempt me from the spells I have carefully prepared. It's really unwilling to lose to you every time. ”
