026,Bone (Part 2)
Schrödinger put down his bones with a little unhappy, turned around and ran down the mountain wall, and soon jumped up again, opening his mouth to spit out the earth's pupils. Amon quickly put away the earth's pupils and shouted: "Schrödinger, let's go!"
The roar of the Iron Armored Beast King came from the bushes under the mountain walls, mixed with the sound of shrubs and short trees being broken and swept away. It seemed that the ferocious beast was quite angry. Amon turned around and disappeared from the heights. When Schrödinger left, he still reluctantly picked up the bone-shaped thing and jumped into his skin pocket.
When the Beast King returned to the edge of the pool, four large iron-armored beasts showed their heads from the bushes in fear. There was only the frozen pool water and the entrance of the nest exposed to the water. The Iron-armored Beast King crawled over the ice surface and entered the nest, and then made a shocking roar, which shocked the nearby ice layers.
...
On the path between the dense forests of the mountains and the clouds, Link, with a grin, was anxiously discussing something with Medanzo: "That guy is so amazing. He has chased us so far. Fortunately, he is not as fast as we run on the mountain road. He should not chase after him after leaving the territory... Mr. Amon is still on the pool. What should I do? I will go back and gather the warriors of the whole clan to pick him up?"
Medanzo: "Is it still time to wait for you to gather people in the clan? Besides, can the so-called warriors in your clan stop the beast king's tail? We have led the beast king away, and the remaining four large iron armored beasts Amon can deal with it. It should be no problem to escape. His ability is much greater than that of us."
Link gasped and said, "You are right. Mr. Amon has no problem dealing with four big iron armored beasts. He is afraid that he will encounter the Iron Armored Beast King again on the way back."
Medanzo spat at him: "I thought Amon was as stupid as you, the Iron Armored Beast King ran all the way, and could hear such a big noise from afar, so he had already taken a detour to avoid it."
Link had not dried up his cold sweat on his forehead, but he still asked in dissatisfaction: "Why do you say I'm stupid?"
Medanzo grabbed his animal skin collar: "Who isn't you stupid? Who told me that the Iron Armored Beast King is just as powerful as the four big Iron Armored Beasts combined? Neither of us blocked it, but fortunately Amon protected us to run away."
Link leaned against a stone on the side of the road and shrank down: "Be gentle, I'm injured!... It was told by an old man from our tribe. I don't know what the truth will be like!"
Medanzo snorted, "Old man? How old! Did he even compete with the Iron Armored Beast King? He said nonsense, "You, the patriarch, believe it, and almost gave us both our lives! When I go back, I will call that person here and ask, and hear what he said?"
Link's facial features were already wrinkled in a ball: "I can't ask, the person I told me died last year... Don't talk about this anymore. Amon hasn't come back yet. Should we go back quietly to answer?...I feel that I just suffered a loss of not understanding the situation. With your swordsmanship, you should be able to withstand it for a while."
"If you are ready to set up your posture, you two can indeed withstand a moment, but you still have to run quickly, and you will be dead if you are slower!...Link, where did you get the news? It's not difficult to deal with that iron armored beast king?" Amon's voice suddenly came from behind the stone. With the sound, he walked around the stone and came to the path.
"You are back! I knew that with your ability, you will be fine!" The two shouted in surprise and joy. Link held his arms and bared his teeth and said again: "The messenger of the gods, no, God Amon! I have explained just now, tell me how powerful the old man, who is the Iron Armored Beast King, died last year!"
...
I wanted to go to the pool to practice my skills, but it turned out to be a thrust. One of Link's arm broke. Fortunately, Medanzo used a plywood to fix it on the road and then take it slowly after he got back.
After returning, Link got sick and hummed all day long. Not only did he feel uncomfortable in his arms, but he seemed to be in a bad state on his body, and there was no good place left. While Amon was teaching Link a few days ago, he also practiced a simple low-level healing magic technique. He often helped Link treat "illness" these days.
However, he found that Link's "disease" was very strange. His healing magic could only relieve his suffering, but could not eliminate his symptoms. Link's problems were constantly, either hurting here today or there tomorrow, like being cursed by some god. Amon remembered his experience in Duke Town. There was a period of time when he suffered various old injuries that he had suffered repeatedly, and even the old madman could not cure it.
This is not a disease, but the test that the first-level warrior has to face after awakening the power of both sides of the body - the purity of the body. This test is coming at the same time as the first-level magician is promoted to the second-level magician. Link's test comes so quickly, of course, it is related to the incomplete earth element magician he learned since he was a child, and his foundation is still good.
However, Link's foundation was relatively poor on the other hand, and his body was not as strong as Amon. Amon's strong body not only benefited from the skills and exercises of miners in Duke Town, but also the mysterious cold pool bathing and purification. The environment in the dwarf tribe lived in the wild was very harsh. I don't know how many injuries were injured in all sizes. Some injuries were healed on the surface, but they still left hidden dangers in the body, and they occurred continuously when this test came.
Fortunately, Link was the son of the former patriarch since he was a child and had not experienced too many dangers in the dwarf tribe, otherwise this level would be even more difficult.
Since Amon thought of the reason, he told Link the truth that he should use his tenacious will to overcome all kinds of suffering and not give up physical exercises. This is a test and a threshold. After passing through, he can achieve the achievements of a second-level magician, and at the same time he can practice the second-level physical art.
Link was very scared and suspected that there was some strange poison on the tail of the Iron Armored Beast King, or that he had been hit by some unknown curse. He felt relieved after hearing Amon's words. Although he still held his arms and hummed, Link still insisted on physical exercise every day and often went to Medanzo for advice.
Link was exercising with "disease", and Medanzo was not feeling well these days, so he actually caught a cold. Medanzo really had a minor illness and felt something was wrong with everything on his body. He always felt a sense of powerlessness, which was completely different from the previous few days when he was full of energy and had nowhere to vent. Since Amon knew the magical technique of healing, he also came to Amon for treatment.
Medanzo's situation made Amon think about it for most of the day, and finally vaguely confirmed something, and he also encountered the test of "purity of the body".
Medanzo was already a fourth-level warrior. He had passed this test inadvertently. When he was awakened from the power of both sides of the body and experienced this test again, it was much easier than Link. That is, he caught a cold by the pool a few days ago and had a minor illness. Amon told Medanzo similar words, and if he persisted, he could become a second-level magician. Medanzo was overjoyed.
Amon was surprised by the second test of these two people, but it was not unreasonable to think about it carefully. They have been practicing incomplete magic and regular physical skills for a long time. Once they are awakened from the power of both sides of the body, it is not difficult to reach the peak of level one achievement.
Seeing that the two "students" were almost at the same level as themselves, Amon, the "teacher", also had troubles and troubles. The disaster predicted by the old madman has not yet appeared, and he cannot see the information left in the earth's pupils. Whether it is the second-level divine art or the second-level physical art, he has already practiced to the peak state, but he has been unable to wait for the test of "firmity of faith".
Is it because the old madman's guess wrong? Amun was also a little confused. When practicing the most basic meditation of the magic technique these days, he was always irritable and uneasy and unable to calm down. His power was almost unrestrained, as if the achievements of magic technique had always ended here.
However, Schrödinger has been very happy these days, always jumping around the village during the day. People respect this cat very much and regard it as a waiter of the gods. Needless to say, the lazy and greedy fat cat in Duke Town finally had a proud time. It lived a very moisturizing life in the cave-dwelling savage tribe, and even the fur color became oily.
Schrödinger picked up a bone-shaped thing from the nest of the Iron Armored Beast King, and after he came back, he put it in his grass nest, and even pressed it with a claw when he was sleeping. Amon also took it out and saw it. It was flat, round, slender and arc-shaped, with one pointed and the other dull, which reminded people of the shape of a ship on the temple mural.
Seeing this thing, Amon subconsciously touched his ribs. It looked too much like a human rib! It looked completely different from ordinary bones. It was light and had almost no weight, but it was harder than imagined. Even the sharp iron knife could not make any trace. Its surface was smooth like a polished white stone. If it were a bone, it would have decayed a long time ago and should not have been like this.
Amon didn't understand that anyway, it was the thing Schrödinger picked up, so he put it in its grass nest. If it were a different time, Amon might have tried to use various methods to study it, but he has not been in this interest recently. He seems to be absent-minded in everything he does, and is always prone to irritability and distracted. Even when he sees a bird flying by, he will think randomly, but it seems that he has nothing to think about.
In this state, it is impossible to practice magic. Could it be that the first time he took action, he suffered setbacks from the Iron Armored Beast King, which hit the young man's confidence? One night, Amon sat upright in the house and practiced meditation, but he was unable to calm down and entered that state of concentration. All kinds of messy thoughts came in, and he couldn't help but recall all the things in Duke Town in the distance.
He was thinking about how his father lived, how much wine did he drink during this period? What was the great disaster predicted by the old madman, and how would Duke Town be affected in this disaster? As he thought about it, he naturally could not practice divine arts and meditation. Aware of this, Amon sighed, but heard Schrödinger sighing in the grass nest.
The sigh seemed to remind Amon something. He suddenly slapped his head and said to himself: "Why am I so stupid! Isn't this a test of practicing divine art? The firmness of faith is the stability of the soul and the firmness of faith!"
