Chapter 19 - Chapter 18 Demonic and Martial Arts Dual Cultivation

The atmosphere in the meeting hall of the Blue Fairy Mercenary Group was depressing and gloomy, as if a storm was about to break out at any time. Arthur stood in the middle of the hall with his head bowed deeply, his tattered leather armor hanging in pieces, and the injuries on his face and chest had long since healed. For a mercenary group with wood mages, this kind of trauma is the easiest to deal with. Arthur clenched his fists tightly, not daring to look up. Outside the meeting hall, many mercenaries peered in. Although Arthur used a magic scroll when he finally killed the black-backed pig, a mercenary who had just stepped into the first-level human warrior class killed two monsters of the same level in the first battle, which immediately caused a huge sensation in the mercenary group. . "Who asked you to learn magic?" Randall was the first to speak, with suppressed anger in his tone. "I thought Arthur's magic, and he is now my magic apprentice." Adeline said calmly. "No, it's not Teacher Adeline. It's me who has been pestering Teacher Adeline to ask her to teach me magic." Arthur waved his hand in a hurry and explained. Randall turned his head and gave Adeline a fierce look. He didn't care about anyone in the mercenary group. Adeline had no intention of continuing to explain, and still sat expressionless. "Before I formally taught you martial arts, did I tell you that once you choose to become a warrior, you can no longer learn magic? Why are you disobedient?" Randall yelled, his anger finally bursting out. There is a clear distinction between warriors and magicians in Ireland, and few people practice both. The reason is simple. Whether it is to become a high-level warrior or a great magician, it requires a lot of time and energy to practice. Warriors need to absorb fighting energy day and night, and then use fighting energy to temper their bodies. At the same time, they also need to constantly hone their martial arts. Magicians need more time to meditate and temper their spirits, communicate with the magic elements in the space, and at the same time memorize many magic construction formulas. "Warriors cultivate themselves, and practitioners cultivate their spirits" is the most basic theory in the world of cultivation. "I just want to learn more." Arthur whispered, still not daring to raise his head. "How far have you learned?" This question was asked by Captain Keynes on the side. "I have been able to communicate with the magical elements swimming in the space and keep a small part of the body." Arthur answered truthfully. "What about building a magic circle?" "I can't do it yet, and it's always a little bit worse in the end." "What element of magic do you communicate with most easily?" "It seems that all magical elements can communicate." Arthur raised his head slightly proudly. "Huh~" Keynes whistled and said slightly jokingly: "I thought the mercenary group could harvest a future great magician?" Arthur looked surprised, as if Keynes did not appreciate his ability to communicate with magical elements. Arthur's expression fell into Keynes's eyes. He turned to look at Adeline aside, and said with a smile: "You don't seem to be teaching your magic apprentice as much as you can?" Adeline blushed slightly, "Arthur does not have any close magic elements. In fact, he is not suitable to be a magician. But I promised to accept him as an apprentice at the Nightingale Bar, and the Exploding Fireball Magic Scroll It's a welcome gift for me as a teacher, but I didn't expect him to be able to activate his magic power so quickly." This actually involves another basic theory in the cultivation world, "Only those who are favored by magic elves can become magicians." To become a magician, the prerequisite is that the spirit must be able to establish contact with the magical elements floating in the space. But what kind of physique can communicate with magic elements seems to be random. So far, scholars of all races in Ireland have not found any rules. Even for the children of magicians, the probability of communicating with magic elements is different from that of children of civilians. There is no difference. Even if you can communicate with magic elements, you may not necessarily become a magician. Next, it depends on the affinity of magic elements. If you can be particularly close to a certain series of magic elements, you will be truly qualified to become a magician. Among ordinary people, those who can eventually become magicians can be said to be one in a thousand. It is precisely because of the extremely high threshold that the status of magicians on the mainland is more respected than that of warriors. Of course, there are magicians who are close to two or even three series of magic elements at the same time, but the final achievements of these magicians are not as high as those of single-series magicians. There has never been a full-series magician in the history of the mainland. Arthur couldn't hide the look of disappointment on his face, and turned to look at Adeline, "So I definitely can't become a magician?" Adeline smiled bitterly, and then shook her head slightly, "Theoretically, anyone who can communicate with magic elements can become a magician, but the gathering and manipulation of magic elements will be many times slower than a magician with a strong affinity for a single element of magic. , and the gap becomes more obvious as you go up, and many people still stay at the level of junior magicians throughout their lives." Arthur's dimmed eyes instantly brightened up again, "So I can still learn magic from you?" Adeline smiled bitterly again, this time it was a real bitter smile, "Of course, you can, but you are more suitable to be a warrior, and you will go further on that road!" "Yes!" Arthur nodded heavily, "Sooner or later I will become a powerful warrior, but I will not give up learning magic!" "You little bastard, give up on this stupid idea as soon as possible! Don't think about magic and martial arts, it's impossible!" Randall poured a basin of cold water on his head. Arthur's determined eyes met Randall, "Teacher, you want me to give up practicing magic, but you have to tell me why?" Ever since Randall started teaching Arthur martial arts, he took the initiative to change his name. Randall was not very used to it at first, and after a while, he started calling him Arthur. "The path of a warrior's cultivation is like a long race. A warrior who pursues strength has no room for mistakes on this road. Once he goes astray, his life's realm will stop here! And waste energy on doing things you know have no results. Cultivation is the greatest stupidity!" Randall seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes were in a trance when he said these words. "Thank you Teacher Randall for your teaching, but I still want to learn magic. I promise that it will not delay the warrior's practice!" Arthur still did not give up. This is the first time Arthur has contradicted Randall since he joined the mercenary group. "You!" Randall's eyebrows stood up, and a powerful fighting spirit was about to spurt out of his body. A big hand landed on Randall's shoulder at the right time, suppressing the fighting spirit that was about to burst out, "It's still such a big anger, I have to listen to the little guy's explanation first." Keynes raised his chin slightly to signal Arthur to continue. "When I started learning magic, I just wanted to learn more things and make myself stronger. But when I devote all my energy to communicating with magic elements, I will forget the pain caused by the 'Dan yang Refining God'." "What? Say it again!" Keynes and Randall exclaimed at the same time. Once a warrior enters the first level, during cultivation, there will be an automatically rotating cyclone in the Kantian to absorb the fighting energy in the space, expand the meridians, and temper the flesh and bones. The biggest disadvantage of Dan yang God Refining is that when the fighting cyclone is running, it causes the whole body, flesh and spirit to feel like being burned in fire. Therefore, the soldiers they previously trained cannot practice for a long time and have to stop every half an hour. Rest, otherwise the constant, roasting pain is enough to drive a person crazy, but Arthur said he can ignore this pain! This means that Arthur can practice fighting spirit and magic at the same time, which is an unprecedented miracle! Moreover, using the "Dan yang God Refining" to cultivate fighting spirit will take several times longer than the warriors he trained before! "Impossible, how could you calm down and concentrate in that kind of pain to communicate with the magical elements?" Randall excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Arthur's shoulders. Arthur grinned in pain because of the excessive force. "At first, I just hoped to relieve the pain by diverting my mental attention. Unexpectedly, the pain made me feel those magical elements more clearly and real. Once I devoted myself to it, I forgot about the pain!" "Impossible, impossible, how could such a thing happen?" Randall still shook his head in disbelief. "How is it impossible? It's just that none of the soldiers we brought before were stupid enough to practice magic while practicing fighting spirit!" Keynes couldn't help laughing, "Haha... Our Blue Enchantress really found a treasure this time!"
