Tang Shidao didn't spend too much time practicing Elementary Meditation, and he quickly recovered the 1 point of magic power he had lost. At this time, he fully experienced the benefits of practicing Elementary Meditation. Originally, there was no need to continue cultivating the Elementary Meditation Technique, but it could be cultivated again. No longer could it increase 1 point of magic power a second time, but it could be sharpened again and again. Elementary Meditation was the same as training the body. The more you practiced it, the greater the potential effect.
After practicing Elementary Meditation, Tang Shidao confirmed that his memory had improved. It wasn't to the point of having a photographic memory, but it wasn't far from it.
At this moment.
Reading and listening to classes felt like a third-year high school student going to primary school. It was much easier.
Class ended in the evening.
Tang Shidao tried a few rounds of League of Legends and real-time strategy Starcraft, but he soon lost interest. It was too easy to win!
Competitive games and real-time strategy required only two things: reaction and hand speed!
As long as an ordinary person's reaction and hand speed were fast enough, and they were familiar with the game, they could be considered high-end players. Tang Shidao had played a lot of games under Lei Dazhuang's influence. League of Legends was originally a Diamond-tier player. After activating the Nimble Halo, his hand speed and reaction were doubled, and his thinking ability strengthened by Elementary Meditation, he could easily beat all opponents.
Of course, Tang Shidao didn't want to hang around in the game world.
I'm a mage!
As a real mage, and with the Mage Network's training ground, he could play real life and death battles. Why would he play this kind of fake game? Occasionally playing games was just to be flexible with his hands and adapt to the rhythm of the battle. After all, real mage battles had some similarities with games.
After practicing Elementary Meditation, Tang Shidao felt that his way of thinking had changed.
Homework.
Daily training.
Or entering the Mage Network to inquire about information. He had a plan when doing things. From a lazy third-year high school student, he slowly turned into a little elite with ideas and plans.
"What do I need to do to take the initiative to accept a mission?"
"1 point of magic power." The scarecrow was as cheap as ever, with a face full of "I don't want to talk about friendship. It's too harmful to talk about friendship."
Tang Shidao readily gave it to him.
The scarecrow was even more straightforward. "Guest, what kind of mission do you want to accept?"
Tang Shidao had learned from the Grand Library that there were countless quests on the Sorcerer Net. There were emergency quests, long-term quests, quests that limited the number of people, and quests that limited spells. There were all kinds of quests. "This healing aid quest requires at least ten healing per hour. I meet the requirements."
"I'll contact them." The scarecrow began to work.
"You don't need to pay any more mana points?" Tang Shidao wondered when the scarecrow's conscience had awakened.
"I've already taken it." The scarecrow put on a serious face and said, "Usually, I only accept when the negotiation is successful. Since you're willing to give it to me first, of course I'll accept it. Let me make it clear, I won't refund the money if the negotiation fails. "
Tang Shidao's mouth twitched. He had been tricked again.
Very soon.
"The other party agrees, but they request that you accompany them and protect yourself. If it could be completed within half a month, in addition to the 10 points of invitation fee, an additional 5 points could be paid. Young man, the other party's request is a bit strange. They're too generous, unlike me who's stingy. I'm afraid they're not good people. The contract says that you're absolutely safe, but it's hard to say when it comes to the actual quest. "The scarecrow kindly reminded him that those who weren't stingy weren't good people.
There was a hidden hint that the follower of this quest would be in danger.
"I'll take it." Tang Shidao was least afraid of death. His innate spell, Reincarnation, could be used infinitely.
The contract was completed.
Tang Shidao instantly gained 10 points of mana. After thinking about it, he began to spend without hesitation.
"A Monk's Body Strengthening Technique."
"1 point of mana."
"Okay. If I want to let a normal person practice the Monk's Body Strengthening Technique, what are the requirements? "Tang Shidao, who had practiced meditation, had a new plan in his mind.
"You need an alchemy item, the Body Refining Ring. It's equivalent to a catalyst for normal people to come into contact with magic. Don't worry about using it. Normal people can't have mana. They can only use the Body Refining Ring to strengthen their body. Once the ring is taken off, normal people won't have any effect on their training. "The scarecrow explained the alchemy item in detail.
That was its job.
It never hid anything. It didn't say anything because you didn't ask … or you didn't give enough 'money'.
"How much mana for one?" Tang Shidao asked for the price.
He was a mage, so he could practice the Monk's Body Strengthening Technique without a catalyst. However, the people around him couldn't. Tang Shidao didn't want to teach anyone magic. It was impossible. The Mage Network also didn't allow it. However, it was possible to learn the Monk's Body Strengthening Technique or use alchemy items. For example, if he found an alchemy potion that could extend one's life, he wouldn't mind giving his grandfather a bottle.
Tang Shidao already knew that the effect of the life-prolonging potion was very low, and it couldn't exceed twice the lifespan. However, it was better than not drinking at all.
"One Body Refining Ring, 10 mana."
"I want 10. Also, give me a 'Hundred Shots' and 10 Return Flying Daggers. I remember that Return Flying Daggers also cost 1 point for 10. "Tang Shidao continued to buy.
"Hundred Shots: 2 points, 10 Return Flying Daggers: 1 point." The scarecrow was slightly surprised. The boy in front of him was a little different.
He was no longer careful.
He was no longer hesitant.
Right now, he had a very steady feeling, unlike a young man. In addition to the effect of the beginner meditation technique, there must be some other experience that made him mature.
Tang Shidao didn't care what the scarecrow was thinking. He spent 5 points of mana each time, and now he had 18 points left. He could use 10 healing spells in an hour without any pressure. The remaining 8 points of casting Hundred Shots, plus the Return Flying Daggers that would automatically disappear and return to the owner's hand. He could also help in this mission, unlike last time when he followed behind Lei Shi to pick up trash.
"Hello, peer. My name is Poison Master Wolf. My mission is to go to the dragon castle to save the princess. "
As soon as the other party opened his mouth, Tang Shidao was stunned.
Dragon slaying?
Are you f * cking kidding me? With the level of our novice village that hasn't graduated yet, a sneeze from a dragon would make us bleed from all seven orifices. Save the princess? A dragon could crush us with its booger. Peer, if we don't court death, we can still be good friends.
"Peer, you misunderstood. There are no dragons in the dragon castle," Poison Master Wolf said calmly.
"No dragons?"
"Yes, only a group of bandits. They captured the princess and asked the king to give them a province. The king issued a reward. Whoever can destroy the bandit group and save the princess will be able to marry her and also get the dragon castle and a province. "Poison Master Wolf drank his tea calmly.
Tang Shidao nodded.
The familiar routine, the familiar formula, the same taste, the same … Wait, that's not right! A princess falling into the hands of a dragon and falling into the hands of a group of bandits were two completely different things. If the princess was saved, wouldn't your head be green as a grassland?
Besides.
You, a mage, are in such a miserable state, and you want to ask for a king's reward?
"I want to kill them all." Poison Master Wolf smiled, pulled the beautiful maid who brought in the tea, and kissed her. Then he let the maid out and said, "I used 10 points of mana to issue the mission, and I also agreed to pay an extra 5 points. You should know my ability. Not to mention other spells, I can kill them all just by transforming into a werewolf. "
"You need speed." Tang Shidao's brain was much better now.
"That's right. I want to kill all the bandits before anyone can react and not let anyone know that I can transform into a werewolf. I will also kill the princess, and then use an alchemy potion to turn my beloved Jenny into a princess. After that, we will live happily together until Jenny dies. I have the youth potion, she can always look young. "Poison Master Wolf looked like a gentleman, but what he said was the bad guy's version.
Tang Shidao found that the fairy tale had been shattered.
This was the story of a schemer.
"Kill all the bandits, steal the dragon castle, kill the princess, disguise herself as Jenny. Don't let anyone know that I am a mage, including Jenny. These things have to be done in half a month. Once the king sends someone to investigate, I would rather retreat. The identity of a mage is more important than anything else, you know. "Poison Master Wolf said.
Tang Shidao understood.
Poison Master Wolf had the ability to do it himself, but he wasn't fast enough.
"Why do you want to live a peaceful life?" Tang Shidao suddenly asked.
Poison Master Wolf smiled. "The poor need to eat and drink, the king also needs to eat and drink. Ugly people need clothes, the beautiful people also need clothes. Actually, everyone is the same. I am a mage, but I can't live without. I have lived for a long time, and I have seen a lot. I don't want to change this world. I like to quietly watch it like this, waiting for it to change little by little. I was once a king, but then I destroyed my empire. I used to love them, and I used to be ruthless. I used to set the rules of nobility, and I used to set the rules of freedom. Later, I found that no matter how things changed, people couldn't be satisfied. That included my first wife. She lived for two hundred years with the beauty of an eighteen year old, but she still wasn't satisfied. I didn't have better alchemy potions, but she kept bothering me … In the end, I killed her with my own hands. "
Tang Shidao nodded.
In Poison Master Wolf's mind, no matter how beautiful his wife was, it couldn't compare to a mage's secret.
"Mages aren't necessarily immortal, and it's even harder for ordinary people." Poison Master Wolf smiled bitterly. "When I found that I couldn't even satisfy all of my wife's wishes, I was too naive to want to satisfy everyone. Now, I just want to be a bystander, with only one person by my side. "
Tang Shidao didn't quite understand.
He was just a third-year high school student. Compared to an old monster who had lived for who knew how many thousands of years, he was still too inexperienced.
"I'll help you." Tang Shidao felt that this ending scene was very good. After the baptism of blood, the two of them lived peacefully in a lonely castle, watching the world slowly change day by day.
"You'd better be able to protect yourself." Poison Master Wolf first stated his conditions.
"I'll summon crows to scout ahead, and then I'll summon three fierce wolves to assist in battle. I'll turn into an owl to protect myself, and I can also cast spells that never miss. With ten returning flying daggers, I can kill some of the bandits. "Tang Shidao didn't mention the Halo of Agility. Poison Master Wolf was a mage from another world. He was just a temporary companion, not a friend.
"So hardworking? What do you want? "Poison Master Wolf didn't believe in free lunches.
"Something related to alchemy."
"Okay."
The two of them reached an agreement. Tang Shidao turned into an owl and flew to the Dragon Castle to inspect, confirming that Poison Master Wolf really had the ability to kill everyone by himself. Poison Master Wolf used the excuse of sneaking into the city to save the princess to request that the nearby royal army not disturb them, with a time limit of fifteen days.
The royal army gladly agreed.
Tang Shidao joined forces with Poison Master Wolf, and it only took them eight days to wipe out the entire bandit group. According to the plan, Poison Master Wolf had Jenny enter the castle, who was already prepared, and turn into the princess. Throughout the entire process, Tang Shidao only saw a brutal werewolf killing in all directions, without the beauty of a fairy tale at all. In the end, the warrior and the 'princess' lived happily together … well, stepping on the countless corpses beneath the castle.
Mission accomplished.
Poison Master Wolf immediately paid 15 MP and gave Tang Shidao three gifts.
The first was an alchemy material pouch, which contained a small amount of alchemy materials. This thing was similar to a storage ring, but it could only store alchemy items.
The second was his alchemy handbook. He didn't give it to Tang Shidao as a gift, but only asked him to make a copy and not sell it to anyone else.
The third was a paragraph: "Don't try to change your world. Human desires are endless. Don't talk about everyone, you can't even satisfy one person's entire wish. If your life isn't good, it's enough to improve it. Don't interfere too much. In the future, if you have any problems with alchemy, you can come to me, but the scarecrow will only send you over if he cheats you of one MP. "
Tang Shidao smiled.
It was impossible to directly travel between different worlds. It had to be a mission requirement. This couldn't be avoided by the scarecrow. After returning to the Mage Network library, Tang Shidao immediately spent 10 MP to buy alchemy. At this moment, he finished his second lesson: There are no fairy tales in any world! There are only flowers that cover death!
Next.
Tang Shidao felt that he had to properly 'accumulate' strength and slowly enjoy his life.
