Chereads / I am the Archmage / Chapter 45 - Special energy

Chapter 45 - Special energy

I closed my eyes and repeated in my mind bit by bit the "advance into the battlefield" move that Leis had just made. Finally, I opened my eyes, shouted softly, and thrust out the Yaye Sword in the same way.

 There is no energy, no sword roar, and no momentum. In my hand, this is just an ordinary straight thrust with no power at all.

 A flash of amazement flashed in Reis's eyes, and he said: "You are indeed a genius at learning swordsmanship. You can imitate my movements exactly, which is really rare. However, this is useless. The essence of 'Battle Technique' exists." The use of Qi in the body when drawing the sword, the sword move itself has no power."

 He began to carefully use this method to "advance into the battlefield" and how to condense his energy. 

 I didn't expect that the simple straight thrust in front of me actually contained such a complex use of Qi. Under the guidance of Reis, I poured the faint trace of Qi in my body into the Yaye sword, and with a slight drink, I thrust it again. Stab out.

This time was different from the last time. Although it was extremely weak, there was indeed a soft "hiss" sound when the sword blade was thrust out. I also felt the faint qi in my body shooting straight out along the Yaye Sword.

 It was successful. Before I could cheer, a dizzy and helpless feeling spread out from my body. I fell to the ground as soon as my body went limp. Fortunately, Leith stretched out his hand to support me.

 Reis put his hand on my chest, and a soft warm current flowed directly into my body, and my sluggish spirit suddenly cheered up.

 He said: "When you first started practicing Qi, your Qi was extremely weak. The blow just now has consumed all your Qi, so that's why it's like this."

 With Reis's help, I quickly regained my energy.

 Leis said: "Today I will teach you this move first. You can experience it when you go back. But you can only practice it in your mind. When your Qi is sufficient in the future, you can practice with the sword. To practice swordsmanship, you must first practice Qi. "

He left the woods with his giant sword. I was so excited when I first learned about the secret method. I simply didn't even go back for dinner. I stayed in the open space and meditated on what I had just learned about "advancing into the battlefield" and the movement of Qi, waiting for the arrival of Ulanasha.

 Although I haven't eaten all day, I don't feel hungry at all and I am full of energy.

 My mind has been immersed in the thought of swordsmanship. I don't know how long it took, but a pleasant fragrance came into my nose and woke me up. I saw Ulan Nasha standing pretty in front of me.

 Seeing me waking up, she said with a smile: "Why are you always in a daze every time I come here? What are you thinking about?"

 I laughed a few times in embarrassment and said: "I'm sorry, Captain, I'm troubling you again. "

 Ulanasha pointed at the giant trees that were broken by Leith's sword energy and said, "I knew as soon as I saw these trees that only Uncle Lei's 'War Technique' was so powerful. I was instantly I was careless and forgot that my swordsmanship is not suitable for a grown man like you."

She began to teach me Qi training methods with all her heart.

 So, every day during the day, I learned swordsmanship with Reis, and at night, I practiced Qi with Ulan Nasha. The seven days passed quickly.

 In these seven days, I learned all the "fighting tactics". Of course, they were just postures and luck techniques, and I have not practiced them personally (my little bit of zhenqi cannot be used in such powerful sword moves), and Ulan Nasha also passed on all her ancestral Qi training methods to me, and everything from now on will be up to me.

 The deputy leader of the "Rose Corps" "Troll Witch" Ying returned to the camp from the Principality of Lein and brought a new task to the regiment: Princess Feoa of the Principality of Lein fell to the fire elves and orcs in the recent battle. The Principality of Rein is currently at war with these two races and cannot spare any manpower, so it hired our "Rose Corps" at a high price.

 Go to the rescue.

 This is not a simple task. To rescue people from the fire elves who are proficient in fire magic and the extremely tyrannical orcs is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky.

However, considering the astronomical remuneration, we will take on even the most difficult tasks.

 The mercenary group set off immediately. There were only about fifty people who were short and capable, and moved quickly, which was unmatched by the large corps.

 After seven days of hard Qi training, my physical strength and endurance have improved a lot, so I was able to endure running on horseback for several days in a row, and I couldn't help but secretly feel happy in my heart.

 Uncle Fred rode up to me and said with a smile: "NoName, this mission is very dangerous. Remember to follow me when the time comes and don't show off. Do you understand?"

 I frowned and said: "Uncle, whenever there is a war in the past six months, I have always hidden behind you. This time I can't do that. Senior Lei and the regiment leader taught me swordsmanship and Qi training respectively. I'm not the same person I used to be."

 Uncle Fred slapped me on the head and laughed and scolded: "You brat, you have only studied for a few days, you can't do this even if you want to die. This mission is really extraordinary, ah, by the way, Fioa The princess is one of the top ten beauties in the Holy Demon Continent, who is as famous as the captain and deputy captain. She must be stunningly beautiful. We will have to broaden our horizons when the time comes."

"Feoya, Feoya...", I murmured this delicate name. For some reason, I always felt very familiar with this name, as if I had heard it often before.

 According to the intelligence gathered, the headquarters of the coalition of fire elves and orcs is located in Spruance Castle, and Princess Fioya is also imprisoned there.

 Spruance Castle is originally a fortress of the orcs. It is located under a cliff and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is well-defended. The "Storm Knights" of the Principality of Rein once attacked the castle, but they were never able to break it.

 We set up camp in a secluded place more than ten miles away from the castle, and at the same time camouflaged ourselves to prevent being discovered by fire elves and orc patrols.

 Ying summoned a flying Warcraft Thunder Eagle and ordered it to conduct reconnaissance over Spruance Castle. Ulanasha also sent several mercenaries who were good at stealth and fast-moving mercenaries to conduct ground reconnaissance. .

 I seize every free moment to practice Qi. The Qi in the meridians in my body is much thicker than in the past few days, and the circulation speed is also much faster. I only need a little time to complete a cycle.

In fact, my current achievements in Qi training are equivalent to those of others who have practiced hard for a year, but I don't know it myself.

 Ulanasha stood in front of a simple table in the tent, staring closely at the map of Spruance Castle that she bought from a thief at a high price, and carefully thinking about the steps to take.

 The curtain of the tent was lifted, and a stunning beauty with tall stature and elegant temperament walked in. On her shoulder stood a strange parrot with extremely bright feathers and a small white horn on its head.

 This stunning beauty is the deputy leader of the "Rose Corps". Among the top ten beauties in the Holy Demon Continent is the summoning mage known as the "Brozoon Girl" - Ying. The weird parrot on her shoulder is a kind of low-level monster. The name is "Ghost Parrot". He is extremely intelligent and can talk to people, but he has no offensive power, so he is very suitable as a pet.

 Ying walked to Ulan Nasha and said: "Sasha, have you come up with any action strategy? Princess Feoa fell into the hands of those brutal orcs. If she stays for a moment longer, she will be in more danger. We must rescue her as soon as possible. ."

 Ulanasha took a picture of the map and said: "This Spruance Castle was built as a fortress. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is really not easy for us to sneak in secretly."

Ying said: "Do you think this will work? We first send people to make the illusion that a large army is besieging the castle to attract their attention, and then select a few elite soldiers to follow me on the flying monster to sneak into the castle and determine the coordinates. Then we can use 'space transfer' to rescue the princess."

 Ulanasha's beautiful eyes lit up and she said: "This is a good idea, but how can we, as a few of us, make it look like a large army is attacking? You must know that Spruance Castle is very big, with tens of thousands of troops stationed in it. We If you're not careful, your entire army will be wiped out."

 A clear voice suddenly sounded: "Captain, deputy commander, we don't need to deliberately try to make the illusion of a large army. We only need to send a few brothers to pretend to be the vanguard soldiers of the Principality of Lein. As soon as they show up around the castle, they will know it." A spy has reported to the castle. How do you think the simple-minded orcs and fire elves will react after receiving this information?"

 The two women turned their heads and saw a tall man wearing ordinary swordsman armor opening the curtain and entering.

 "NoName, how could it be you?"

 Ulan Nasha was surprised and happy. She never expected that NoName, who had lost his memory, would come up with such an idea.

I smiled and said, "I encountered some problems in Qi training. I came here to ask for advice from the group leaders. I overheard your conversation, so I took the liberty of asking the two group leaders for your forgiveness."

Ying said: "No, NoName, your idea is great. When the orcs and fire elves heard that the leading soldiers of the Principality of Leiin appeared nearby, they would definitely think that there was a large army coming from behind, and they would definitely form a formation to wait. In this way, It's a great idea to grab their attention without having to put in any extra effort on our part."

 Ulan Nasha said: "NoName, how did you come up with this idea?"

 I scratched my head out of habit and said, "I didn't think about it deliberately. After listening to your conversation, the idea jumped out of my head. It was very natural."

 Ulan Nasha's beautiful eyes flashed and she said, "Maybe you have experienced this kind of thing before, so..."

 I smiled bitterly and said, "I must have been a pauper before. How could I have experienced something like this? I think it was just a flash of inspiration."

 Ulanasha did not continue to ask further, and said: "You said you had some problems while practicing Qi? This can't be careless. Please tell me carefully."

 Ying also heard that Ulan Nasha said that she taught me how to practice Qi, and she blinked her beautiful eyes curiously and listened.

I said: "Actually, when you first taught me Qi practice, Commander, I felt a little strange. It was just that the feeling at the time was very subtle. I thought it might be an illusion, so I didn't tell you, but this The feeling has become more and more obvious in the past few days, and I am sure this is not an illusion, so I came to see you."

 Ulanasha said a little eagerly: "What does it feel like? Tell me quickly."

 Looking at her expression, I knew that she really cared about me. I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart and said: "Every time I practice Qi and move my Qi, I feel that there seems to be another kind of power in the meridians in my body, a kind of power." It's not true energy, it's a very weird power. As I practice Qi further, my feeling about this weird power becomes clearer and clearer. Just now, I discovered that its source is actually here."

 I reached out and pointed at my forehead.

 Ulan Nasha frowned, but Ying said from the side: "What you are talking about seems to be the magic power of a magician, because magic power is based on people's spiritual power, and the place between the eyebrows is where spiritual power is stored. However, , only a mage whose magic power reaches the level of a great mage can sense the existence of power between the eyebrows.NoName, maybe you are a great magician."

I laughed dumbly and said: "Deputy Captain, are you kidding me? If I really had the magic power of a great magician, I wouldn't be picked up by you like a scrap."

 Ulan Nasha said: "Let's do this. You go to the bed and sit down, and I will use my true energy to find out what is happening in your body."

 I hurriedly took off my armor and sat down on the bed as instructed. A faint fragrance came from the room. Ulan Nasha sat behind me, and then a soft little hand was placed on my vest.

 Ulan Nasha's sweet voice came: "Be calm, be calm, and follow the guidance of my true energy."

 A warm current seeped into my body from the vest, merged with my own weak true energy, and slowly began to swim through my meridians.

 Ying knew that we could not be disturbed at this time, so she walked outside the tent to guard us.

 Ulan Nasha and I slowly checked the meridians one by one, gradually moving upwards, but we didn't find anything strange at all.

Suddenly, I felt a heat in the center of my eyebrows, and then a large strange energy flow rushed out from the center of my eyebrows. In an instant, it pulsed down along the meridians, and suddenly collided with the true energy that Ulan Nasha had input into my body.

 If someone were around now, they would surely see a sudden burst of dark light coming from my body.

 Before Ulan Nasha could react, she felt an incredibly strong energy flow suddenly hit the infuriating energy she had exported. She screamed and was knocked flying against the wall of the tent, almost almost Even the tent was knocked down.

 Ying sensed the strong airflow that suddenly erupted in the tent, and hurriedly turned around and rushed into the tent. She saw NoName sitting on the bed as before, while Ulan Nasha was climbing up from the edge of the tent in embarrassment, as if she had just It fell hard.

 I hurriedly jumped off the bed and went to help Ulan Nasha, but Ying had already supported her one step ahead of me.

 As soon as Ulan Nasha stood firm, she immediately said, "NoName, are you okay? Do you feel anything strange?"

 She herself fell badly, but as soon as she stood up, she cared so much about me without caring about herself. I almost burst into tears with gratitude, and said hurriedly: "I'm fine. Captain, it's all my fault, and it's your fault..." …"

Ying said: "What happened just now? Who can tell me?"

 Ulan Nasha looked at me with a strange look and said: "There is a strange power in NoName, and it is incredibly strong. I was knocked out by this force just now. NoName, please check it quickly. Just give it a try, don't leave any sequelae."

 I closed my eyes and concentrated on running my Qi as instructed. I suddenly discovered that my Qi had undergone essential changes. Although it was still very weak, it seemed to be combined with that weird power to produce a change. It became Another type of energy.

 Ulan Nasha and Yingying discovered that NoName's body was emitting a black light that seemed to be invisible, flashing like lightning, causing a powerful invisible pressure.

 I stopped the movement of my true energy, and the vague black light outside my body immediately dissipated, and the invisible pressure dissipated. Ulan Nasha and Yingfang began to breathe a sigh of relief.

 Ulan Nasha's beautiful eyes were inspired by the divine light and she chased me closely, saying, "NoName, just now..."

Ying shouted: "It's magic power. I'm now sure that the weird power NoName mentioned is magic power, because I did feel the fluctuations of magic power when you were running your Qi just now, even though the fluctuations were very weird. NoName , before you lost your memory, you must have been a magician, and a very powerful magician."

 Magician? I? is it possible?

 Looking at the shocked and surprised eyes of the two stunning beauties, I hurriedly said: "Deputy Captain, please stop joking, how could I be a magician? But just now I discovered that the true energy in my body was under the influence of that weird energy A mutation has occurred. Although it is still extremely weak, the nature is completely different. Look."

 I suddenly condensed all my true energy into the meridians of my right hand, and I felt that the strange energy hidden in the center of my eyebrows quickly separated into a trace of my condensed true energy like lightning.

 As a result, my right hand emitted the same energy-like black light as before. Probably because all my true energy was concentrated in my hand, the black light was much more obvious than before.

 Ulanasha smiled bitterly and said: "The development of things to this point has exceeded the scope of my knowledge. I hope that the change in your true energy will not hurt you."

Ying said: "I always feel that the nameless Qi actually emits fluctuations of magic power, but Qi and magic power are two completely different energies. How can they be fused together? Maybe I am too sensitive..."

 At this time, a clear eagle cry suddenly came from outside the tent, and the "ghost parrot" on Ying's shoulder shouted: "Big Thunder is back, Big Thunder is back..."

 Ying suddenly moved out of the tent, and Ulan Nasha and I hurriedly followed.

 A giant black eagle, as big as a man, landed in front of Ying from the sky and let out a high and low chirp.

 Warcraft have their own languages. One of the skills of a summoning mage is to be proficient in the languages ​​​​of various warcraft. After listening to the cry of the big thunder eagle for a while, Ying nodded, waved her hand and drew out the summoning circle to take it back to her other dimension. space.

 Ulan Nasha said: "Ying, what did you detect?"

Ying said: "According to Big Thunder Eagle, Spruance Castle is heavily guarded, with guards and patrols everywhere. It is very difficult to sneak into it."

 Ulanasha said: "In that case, let's act according to the plan proposed by NoName. First, send a few people to disguise themselves as soldiers from the Principality of Rhine and go to the towns outside the castle to show off and attract their attention." Attention. "

 She looked at me and said, "NoName, I'll leave this matter to you."

 I knew in my heart that she was taking care of me and wanted me to perform such a non-dangerous task. All I have to do is show up when the time comes. Once the enemy comes, she will hide in the forest so that there will not be any danger.

 Although I don't want to do this, I still have some self-knowledge. With my current ability, I can probably only perform this kind of "bait" task, so I had no choice but to agree.

 When I turned around to leave, Ulan Nasha's concerned voice came: "Nameless, be careful."

 The beauty's care makes my heart melt.
