Nelis acted on her own and berated the two hundred. Salin just nodded, indicating that he agreed with Nelis.
Two Hundred wanted to cry. Salin said, "Zola, Sue, this must be kept a secret."
Eleanor recovered from her meditation and looked at Salin. Salin looked back at her. Eleanor said, "If I say anything, I will never be recognized by my ancestors, and my soul will be buried in the Seventh Abyss!"
Seeing that Eleanor had sworn the most venomous oath to an elf, Jorah immediately said, "My Lord, if I were to leak even half a word, let me become a woman!"
Salin smiled. Zola's oath was not a joke. Neris could turn him into a woman and even make him give birth to a child. This was more painful than going to hell for a perverted man.
Sue was stunned for a moment, then said, "My Lord, I am willing to leave the family and become your loyal guard."
Salin was also stunned. Just as he was about to refuse, Sue pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into his left arm. Blood did not flow out. The wound on his arm burst open, but a small creature flew out. Sue grabbed the creature without hesitation and squeezed it into a bloody mess.
After doing this, the wound on Sue's arm closed, and a trace of blood flowed out.
Sue's face was a little pale. He explained to Salin, "This is the family's soul-fostering beast. If I die, it will teleport back to the family's sacred land and bring back everything that happened to me. Then, there will be no secrets."
"Why?" Salin saw that Sue destroyed the spiritual creature his family had nurtured in his body and knew that Sue did not intend to return. This spiritual creature was his only chance to return. Now that he had destroyed it, unless Salin could reach level twelve or above, there was no way he could help him find a way to return to the subcontinent.
Sue hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to become stronger. The subcontinent's plane looks dangerous, but it has already reached a balance. The main continent's plane is the legendary Glory Plane, and it is still growing. Only by cutting off the thought of going back can I break through the mental barrier and take root here.
"Glory Plane?"
"It's a term for the subcontinent. It is said that the humans of the subcontinent also migrated from the Myers Continent. The families with a long history have all kinds of legends about the main continent's plane. Although the power of the humans on the main continent has declined, this plane is still growing and is unique. This is the origin of humans. "
Su's explanation was disjointed, but Salin roughly understood. The humans of the subcontinents no longer had the possibility of advancing, and the humans of the Myers Continent's plane were about to usher in their second glorious era. These were also written in the magic books. When Salin read them, he thought that humans couldn't admit their decline and found some excuses. Now, it seemed that undercurrents were surging in the Myers Continent, and it had indeed reached a period of eruption.
If the belief in the God of Light was dispelled and the gods were not allowed to suck blood from this realm, the human race might really be able to regain its former glory.
"Master, this Myers Continent's plane belongs to humans. No matter what, it can't be …" Sue didn't continue. A strange color flashed in Salin's eyes.
Was the glory of the past really that important to humans now? Even the people from the subcontinents felt proud of themselves.
If the Devil Legion killed their way to the Myers Continent, those human powerhouses would still be fine, but ordinary people would probably become the devils' food. The devils were such a kind of creature. They respected the strong, but they would directly treat the weak as food. No matter what relationship you had with the strong, in the eyes of the devils, it was all the same.
Leaving only the strong was easier for the devils to accept. In the past, the Devil Plane was a strong army in the war between humans and gods. The devils were used to the strength of humans. If you were weak, the devils wouldn't treat you as a human.
Simply put, the devils didn't discriminate against you because of your bloodline, but because of your ability. Salin was recognized by the four devils because he had the badge of killing a Great Devil and the crystal finger that no one could understand. If he didn't have these abilities, Trish and the others would definitely find a way to escape the punishment of the contract. It would be best if they killed him.
But now, Trish and the others were more concerned about how to make Salin stronger, and then lead everyone … to conquer this plane.
When Salin thought of the outcome that the devils wanted, he felt somewhat powerless. He was still too weak, and the only thing he could rely on was the family badge. But once the badge released an attack, he had to wait about half a year. And this was because he had the Goddess's necklace. The necklace had twenty-four young Thunder Dragons to provide him with lightning energy.
Whether it was the devils or the humans in the subcontinent plane, what they couldn't forget was the glory of the past.
But Salin's background made him never realize this. Even if he became a Great Mage, his nature was still that helpless orphan. The warmth that Jason brought him didn't change him completely.
If a person only wanted to live, he wouldn't have any ideals, and he wouldn't want any glory.
Every day, there must be bread to eat, and it must be white bread, not coarse black bread. Perhaps, this was Salin's former ideal. All the hopes that came later didn't come from Salin's heart.
The existence of a Mage was to understand the truth of this world! And the purpose of becoming a Mage was just to fill his stomach. In just a few seconds, countless images flashed through Salin's mind.
In the chaotic swamp, that swordsman begged him to bring the green dragon magic core back to Rex …
Earl Cook, who wanted to harm Ainphent, defended the castle to the death, and refused to retreat even in the face of countless black puppets …
Breaking into the camp alone, the Silver Sword Saint who died in the hands of Byrne …
Facing Genaris, Fayern, who burned all his vitality …
Pang Peicheng's murals, stone tablets …
Alchemy City's gate …
In Lorgar City, the angry Great Demon …
Ismail who never gave in …
The dark corner of Salin's heart suddenly collapsed, and tears flowed down uncontrollably. Although these people died, they left an indelible mark in his heart.
It was unyielding, proud, and dazzling brilliance at the moment of death.
Time seemed to slow down. Salin clearly felt that the elements around his body had almost stopped moving and transforming. His perception had never been so clear. He caught his tears with his hand and held them in his palm.
A few drops of tears burned fiercely and spurted out from the gaps between his fingers.
Neris raised her head in shock and looked at Salin. Master actually … leveled up!
With Salin's diligence and his understanding of water magic, he should have advanced to a sixth-level Mage long ago. But his heart was fragile, and he couldn't see the truth of this world.
Until today, when Su's words made him feel his heart throbbing.
All along, Salin had never really considered the problem of responsibility. Although he tried his best to fight for the people around him, he had no goal or direction. If no one forced him, he might have followed Shika back to the Caucasus region and lived a life of seclusion.
But chaos was coming. Would he be able to face the people who followed him if he was at a loss like this? Would he be able to face Shika?
The glory of mankind had always been so far away and unreachable for Salin. Only now did he suddenly understand how insignificant he was. Because of his inferiority, he had been hiding and didn't think about the future.
In the future, he had his teacher behind him. This was the reason why Salin had never advanced.
And Sue, after hearing that the Demon God had formed an army of tens of millions and had a sacred war drum, she decided to stay and realize her dream in the Myers Continent.
A faint smile flashed in Zola's eyes. Salin finally took a step forward. He didn't have to leave anymore.
How old was Salin this year? Twenty? He was already a level-six mage. If Rex didn't have the God Sieve Ring, Salin would be the youngest Magic Shooter in the world!
The magic string in Salin's body didn't grow wildly like before. Instead, it became thinner and more translucent. The magic string of a level-six mage could easily control the elements around them. Even if they didn't practice, they could release low-level spells without much danger.
The magic string formed a wonderful connection with the elements in the space. When the magic string evolved again and grew outside of his body, Salin would be able to control the elements at will. At that time, he would be a Magic Shooter.
Only Magic Shooters could release magic while flying because their control over the elements had completely changed. Low-level mages and mid-level mages made the magic string resonate with the elements in the space in their body to release magic. But Magic Shooters simply used the magic string to directly control the elements.
Salin understood. Not only did he advance to a level-six mage, he also understood how to continue on the path of advancing to a Magic Shooter.
In the opposite barracks, Rex, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in Salin's direction in disbelief. If his senses weren't wrong, Salin had advanced!
Had he finally grown up? Rex was a little disappointed, but also a little happy. He was disappointed because once Salin became a level-six mage, he might surpass his own speed in advancing to a Magic Shooter. He was happy because his only friend would no longer be at a loss.
The threshold between level-five and level-six was formless, and required spiritual enlightenment. Back then, Jason had traveled to the mainland because he couldn't advance on Seriger Island, and finally settled in Ceylon City.
After Jason understood his path, he returned to Seriger Island and advanced continuously to become a Magic Shooter not long after. In less than ten years, he would advance again.
The advancement of a level-five mage couldn't be discussed with experience. It had to be understood by oneself. Rex only advanced to level-six so quickly because Faylen's death had stimulated her spirit.
