"It's moving, it's moving, teacher, the boat is moving."
Corris pulled Duan to the front of him, glared at him, and said, "Do you still remember what I taught you yesterday?"
Dumb blinked, and said awkwardly: "I, I forgot." For the past two days, Corris has been teaching Dumb some knowledge about alchemists, but unfortunately, Dumb's brain is really slow , I can't even remember a few of the simplest terms.
"Hmph. I knew you forgot again. Forget it, I don't think you can remember anything? You sit cross-legged on the bed."
"Oh." Dumb replied, and sat down as Corris ordered. Corris stood beside him, and said in a deep voice: "You can continue to learn the terminology when you come back to me. During the time on the boat, I will let you experience what magic is. The so-called magic is to use your own spiritual power Communicate with the various elements contained in the world, and use your spiritual power to urge them to do what you want to do. I don't expect you to understand now, I will inject my own magic power into your physical strength later, and you will be closed Close your eyes, feel what you see, and tell me."
Dumb nodded, closed his eyes, and said, "Yes, teacher."
Corris said: "I request that within three months, you must at least learn the two simplest magics of fireball and flame, otherwise, I will not give you food. Alright, calm down, Use your heart to feel the power I emanate." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand, pressed it on Duan's shoulder, and chanted a few incantations in a low voice.
Duan felt his shoulders heat up, and suddenly remembered the torture that day in the hotel, and his whole body shook.
"Putting away distracting thoughts." Corris said in a deep voice.
The heat was transmitted into the body through the shoulders, and it seemed that the heat did not show signs of increasing, but it was constantly circulating in his body. Duan couldn't help but feel relieved. He had no distracting thoughts in his mind. Hazy fell asleep.
At the beginning, Corris thought that Dui was immersed in the ocean of magic elements and was intoxicated, but after a long time, he remained silent, and this method of transmitting magic power could only transfer the inherent magic power in his own body into the opponent's body. It is impossible to summon the magical elements in the air, so even Corris's magic level feels difficult. He slowly withdrew his right hand, and said, "Tell me, what did you see? Dumb, Dumb. Hey, okay, you fell asleep, you kid, and wasted so much of my energy, mad, mad at me .”
A small water polo exploded on Dumb's face, and Dumb, who had a sweet dream, suddenly woke up with a jolt, "Ah! It's snowing, it's snowing."
Angrily, Corris tapped Dumb on the head, and said, "Damn you, what did I ask you to do just now? But what have you done?"
Only then did Ah Dui see his situation clearly, and also remembered some previous things, lowered his head and said: "Teacher, I'm sorry, just now, I was too comfortable just now, so I fell asleep."
Colis barely suppressed his inner anger, and said coldly: "Tell me, what did you see just now? Don't know everything. If you don't know, then today's meal will be gone."
As soon as he heard the meal, Ah-Dai suddenly became more energetic, scratched his head, and thought, I didn't see anything just now! how to answer. However, the temptation of food is too great. Dumb thought about it, and decided to tell his dream just now, to see if he could get away with it. Thinking of this, he looked at Corris with a serious expression, and said: "I, I just felt My whole body was hot, and then I became confused. Later, I saw many children came to play with me. Each of them held a small red steamed bun in their hands, as if they wanted to give it to me. I took it and took it. I couldn’t take it anyway. I also wanted to give them my own things, but I didn’t have anything on me, so I had to give up. Later, you woke me up.”
Corris was secretly startled when he heard that, how could he not understand that Dumb was talking about his own dream. Although Dumb fell asleep, what he described was actually related to the fire element. Those children who played with him were completely figments of his dreams, and those red balls were the fire element in the world! Why do all the fire elements float towards him? Unless he was born with a pure fire physique, but he has already checked, he is not! Back then, when I was learning fire magic, I could only feel the presence of fire elements around me.
Duan looked at Corris anxiously, he didn't know if his lie of using dreams instead of feelings would make him eat.
Corris stretched out his right hand and said, "Follow me. The fire elements that fill the world! Please give me your warm power, condense into a ball, and present it in my hand." With a puff, a ten-thousand-diameter With a few centimeters of fireball, the surrounding air suddenly became scorching hot.
Although Duan didn't understand what Corris meant, he still understood what kind of term this was. He imitated Corris's appearance and said, "Follow... ah, don't read this sentence. The fire element that fills the world Please give me your warm power, condense into a ball, and appear in my hand." As soon as the mantra was finished, Ah-Dai suddenly felt something around him rushing towards his palm, and with a puff, his hand lit up. A small one-centimeter fireball appeared on the palm of his hand, and Ah-Dai was taken aback, fearing that he would be burned by the fire. The moment his thoughts moved, the fireball was extinguished immediately.
Corris stared blankly at Dumb, and it took him a long time to react. Murderous intent flashed through his eyes. He never thought that the silly boy in front of him had such a good talent for magic. When he first sang This fireball spell was only warm in the palm of his hand, but his master had already given him a very high evaluation, and this unattractive and somewhat stupid boy could actually release a tiny fireball, which is simply unbelievable up.
Dumb didn't understand why a small fireball appeared in his hand, and he looked at his palm stupidly, and the two of them just froze in the room.
After a long time, Corlis extinguished the fireball in his hand and said: "Okay, let's stop here today, I want to rest, you have memorized the spell just now. The fireball you released floats in your hand and will not hurt you." To yourself, when you are free, you sit on the bed, silently thinking about those red balls, you understand."
Dui nodded, trying to recall the so-called spell just now, and didn’t care to look at the sea anymore. For him, a child who is only eleven years old, the curiosity brought by the fireball technique is far stronger than the sea. many.
Corris ignored him, and lay on the bed with his eyes closed to rest his mind. Fortunately, today is a rare fine weather, the sea is calm, and the ship does not have much vibration, which made his symptoms of seasickness very mild. He thought, if another magician saw Dumb's performance just now, he would be delighted to accept him as an apprentice. The talent is really good, and I am getting older, so I should consider letting him pass on what I have learned. Corris shook his head vigorously, no, how could he break his plan because of his talent? As long as the final experiment is carried out, the child will inevitably die. What is the use of learning more things
after one day.
Dui sat on the bed, closed his eyes and was having a great time playing with those little red steamed buns, when Corris suddenly woke him up. "teacher."
"Well, try the spell I taught you yesterday."
"Oh, the fire element that fills the world! Please give it, please give it. Oops." Dumb can only remember the first sentence.
Corris withdrew his hand that slapped Dumb, this stupid boy's memory is really bad, "I'm telling you one last time, if you still can't remember, then don't eat before getting off the boat. Fire element! Please grant me your warm power, condense into a ball, and present it in my hand."
Eating is the best threat to Ah-Dai, and he tried hard to remember every word, "The power of warmth... condensed into a ball,... now in my hand." He tried hard to remember the parts that he was not familiar with, Sitting on the bed, I kept chanting, over and over again. For such a simple mantra, ordinary people only need to recite it for a short while to fully remember it, but Dumb memorized it for a long time before he could barely guarantee that he would not forget it.
"Teacher, teacher, I, I remember." Duan shook Corris who had just fallen asleep at any time.
Today's wind and waves are stronger than yesterday. Colisben wanted to use sleep to counteract the nausea caused by dizziness, and finally fell asleep, but was woken up. He said angrily, "What are you doing?"
Dumb took a step back in fright, and said in a whisper, "I, I remember that spell."
Corris snorted, and said, "You are the stupidest person I've ever met. It takes a day and a half to memorize a simple incantation. What's there to show off? Just read it and listen."
The self-confidence that Ah-Dai had finally built up was shattered by Corris' blow. He lowered his head, stretched out his right hand, and whispered: "The fire element that fills the world! Please give me your warm power and condense it into a ball." , now in my hand." After the spell was completed, he once again felt the condensed unknown power, and it was stronger than the last time. With a puff, a small fireball with a diameter of three centimeters suddenly appeared in his palm. With the experience from last time, Dui didn’t panic this time, he looked at the red flame carefully, his hands felt warm, not hot, Dui held the fireball in front of him, watched carefully, a strange Be careful, a bunch of hair on his forehead was burnt immediately, "Ah!" Amidst the exclamation, Duan's spirit suddenly lost, and the fireball in his hand was extinguished, and an unpleasant smell of burning immediately filled the cabin. Inside. Dumb patted on his hair desperately, and the tiny flame was extinguished. Pity his half-length black hair, which was not short, suddenly lost a piece.
Seeing Dumb's distressed look, Corlis couldn't help showing a smile, "Water and fire are ruthless. It's okay to use it, but it doesn't mean it's okay to do other things. It's a real fireball, you call it a fireball. Be careful in the future Some. Open the door and let the smell out."
Dumb was panting continuously. Although the scene just now made him extremely embarrassed, the appearance of the fireball also filled his young heart with joy. For the first time, a sense of respect rose in my heart for Corris, "Old, teacher, I'm sorry, I'm too stupid. I can't even use a little magic well."
Corris thought to himself, then I am not stupid than you. He has never seen anyone who can release fireballs to this extent after only two days of cultivation. "Okay, don't talk about it, just be careful in the future, and don't forget the spell."
Dumb nodded, and said firmly: "I, I will never forget, teacher." Fireball was the first magic Dumb learned, and his heart was already full of love for the red fireball. On the side, he continued to recite the already familiar mantra.
Two days later, the voyage entered the final stage. Corris has been afraid to leave the room for the past few days, for fear that seeing the endless sea will make him vomit. All the food and drink were asked by Ah-Dai to ask the waiter to deliver them to the room. Almost 90% of the food in each meal went into Ah-Dai's stomach. Dui is a very well-behaved child. For the past three days, apart from insisting on reciting the spell of the fireball technique, he has been meditating and practicing on the bed. The so-called hard work can make up for weakness, in just three days, he has been able to master the fireball technique very well, releasing a fireball with a diameter of about five centimeters. Corliss would occasionally give him some pointers on the application of fireballs, such as how to increase the temperature of the fireball, how to increase the volume of the fireball, how to control the fireball to fly in the air, and so on. Unexpectedly, Dumb, who has always been stupid, seemed to be very easy to learn these application methods, and quickly mastered them.
Dui controlled the fireball to revolve around his body, he secretly thought that even if the teacher died in the future, he would no longer have to be afraid of the cold, it felt so good to have a fireball to keep warm. Fortunately, there is no such thing as mind-reading in the magic that Corlis knows, otherwise, the seven orifices of Qi must bleed.
"Teacher, I want to get some air at the door." After getting along for a few days, Dumb was no longer so afraid of Corris. After all, Corris never beat him and made him full for every meal.
Corris glanced at him and said, "Put your fireball away, it's at the door, don't go far."
Dumb said excitedly: "Yes, teacher." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand casually, extinguishing the fireball in the air, and happily opened the door and walked outside. Standing in the corridor outside the cabin, Dumb held on to the railing, and the warm sunlight shone on his body, making him feel indescribably comfortable. He took a deep breath of the salty air, and looked at the place where the sea and the sky meet in the distance, and couldn't help being intoxicated up.
"Huh? What's that?" Duan, who was intoxicated, suddenly noticed a black spot on the sea surface moving straight towards their passenger ship from obliquely in front. The speed seemed to be very fast, and the black spot gradually became larger.
After a while, the shape of the black spot gradually became clear. It was also a ship with a black hull, which seemed to be about the same size as a passenger ship, with only one deck on the deck. On the huge black sail is painted a huge white skull with two crossed bones underneath. Dumb thought to himself, why is the color of their ship different from his own
Seeing that the big black ship was gradually approaching, other people on the passenger ship seemed to have noticed the situation, and the exclamation kept coming: "Pirate, ah! It's a pirate."
