The woman looked slightly serious and said: "My name is Qiong Yun, and I am the guard witch of Hongze City. I would like to know your surname."
"I am not from a big family, and this awakening of power was just an accident."
Milo briefly described how he fell into a coma during the previous heavy rain, and what happened to his nephew and his old dog Bai Ao. Finally, he framed the incident as after burying each other and suddenly gaining strength when he returned home.
Except for concealing the power of mobilizing the Miluo Treasure Scroll, there was nothing concealed in what Milo said. Qiong Yun naturally could not detect the problem with the many spells prepared in advance. After simply confirming that Milo had not obtained the power of the Western gods, Qiong Yun
Then she asked Milo if she would like to return to Hongze City to study with her.
"Although as a Dragonborn, the most suitable place for you to practice is the Jiangling Clan, since the God of Disaster in the West (Taros, the God of Natural Disasters) has interfered with the movement of the sky, it has greatly increased the difficulty of improving the bloodline of the Jiangling Clan. Now you are studying bloodline
There are also very few Jiang Ling tribesmen who know the way. If you don’t follow me and learn the way of witchcraft, you will definitely achieve great achievements based on your talent.”
"Furthermore, if I read it correctly, although your junior's bones are good, they are obviously not supplied enough day after tomorrow, so they are a little weak. If you are willing to practice with me, I can help him prepare some suitable medicinal materials to make up for it."
Milo's originally indifferent expression showed some hesitation after hearing the boy's question. But before the woman secretly rejoiced, she shook her head and said, "Can you let me think about it? When I gain strength.
, I feel that something seems to be attracting me in the upper reaches of Hongze River. Can I wait until I come back before making a decision?"
After Milo gave an ambiguous answer, he then looked worried about his nephew, saying that after he left, he hoped that the woman could take care of the boy.
When the boy heard Milo's words, he suddenly showed a nervous look, and couldn't help but grab the hem of Milo's clothes. Milo gently stroked his head, weak energy gathered in his hands, and the boy gradually calmed down.
The woman was a little surprised at how easily Milo handed over her loved ones to her, and asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid that I deceived you before?"
"Since you came in, I can feel your kindness. The emotions in your heart tend to be caring?"
Milo's response surprised the woman even more. Of course, Milo did not finish his words. In addition to the fact that he was sure that the woman really wanted to make friends with him, it was also because Milo had gained new strength at this time, and with this
The estrangement in the universe has been alleviated to a certain extent, and coupled with the analysis of the past time, when I touched the boy just now, I buried the power seed of a name in the boy's body, which was enough to protect him, and also allowed me to feel
to the other person’s existence.
The woman who didn't know the multiple insurance policies that Milo had set up, just speculated based on Milo's words, and concluded that after Milo awakened his bloodline, he also gained an ability similar to [Detection of Thoughts], and she couldn't help but become more and more curious about the source of his bloodline.
After nodding in agreement, he left a lot of scrolls and a tool to prove his identity, and took the boy away first.
After the two left, Milo immediately stood up and walked upstream of the Hongze River.
And the reason why he was so anxious was because there was a second-class artifact, the Mountain Seal, that belonged exclusively to the Jiang Ling clan.
This artifact was also discovered by Milo unintentionally when he was hiding in various places and helping Aquan and others transfer to Fang Tianyu and obtain their local identity.
As for the discovery process, it is also a bit dumbfounding.
As a secondary artifact of the seal type, the Mountain and River Seal has a very special status within the Jiangling Clan.
According to the rules of the Land of Shoulong, they will grant a seal to the administrator of a place as a symbol of power. Therefore, artifacts such as seals also have the meaning of authority in the Land of Shoulong.
To put it bluntly, the Mountain and River Seal is not only the most powerful tool of the Jiangling Clan, but also the symbol of the leader of the Jiangling Clan. Theoretically speaking, the person holding the Mountain and River Seal has the most orthodox inheritance rights.
As a secondary artifact, the Mountain and River Seal itself has outstanding abilities.
Among them, there are four fixed spells: landslide, water driving, rain praying and dragon turning. Among them, landslide, water driving and rain praying are roughly equivalent to the seven-ring magic in the Western continent's magic system. They can be used three times a day, and dragon turning
Dragon can be regarded as a legendary magic. It can be used once a day, and each use will automatically consume one use of landslide, water driving and rain praying. Therefore, if landslide, water driving and rain praying are used up in advance, then the mountains and rivers will be lost that day.
Yin cannot cast the magic of turning a dragon into a dragon.
In addition, Shanchuan Seal has multiple spell-like abilities.
According to Milo's original observation, there are roughly eight constant spell-like abilities: rain, land, divination, blessing, counter evil, dispelling curses, water breathing, and controlling water creatures.
Among them, the effect of Yurun and Dize is similar to continuous treatment. Holding the Mountain Seal on a rainy day or near a water stream can trigger the effect of Yurun. Holding it for 24 hours is equivalent to receiving one treatment for injuries; when near a swamp, or
In the forest, the effect of the land can be triggered. Holding it for 24 hours is equivalent to receiving a treatment for minor injuries.
Divination is equivalent to a constantly degraded divination technique. It can know whether the result of a specific behavior in the near future will be good or bad. However, the level of this spell itself is not high, and it cannot perform accurate divination. Therefore, in Milo's view,
The effect is very useless.
The blessing spell is much more practical than the divination spell, acting on the mind and gaining a bonus of one on attack rolls and saving throws against fear.
Countering evil and dispelling curses are not so much the abilities that are always present in the Mountain Seal, but rather are the inherent characteristics of secondary artifacts such as Dragon Earth. These two abilities can only act on the Mountain Seal itself, unless the other party casts the spell on it.
It falls on the mountain and river seal, otherwise it will be difficult to play its role in actual combat.
Needless to say, there is no need to talk about breathing in water. People who hold the Mountain Seal can live freely underwater. For the Jiangling tribe who already have similar abilities, this is considered the most useless ability.
The ability to control Danshui creatures seems very powerful, but according to Milo's observation, Shanchuanyin's ability to control Danshui creatures is not very high. Danshui creatures with slightly higher intelligence or creature levels exceeding five may not be able to control Danshui creatures.
Affected.
Generally speaking, the Shanchuan Seal, an artifact, can only be used as a trump card in actual battles, and it is difficult to function for a long time in battles.
Milo hopes to bring it under control. In fact, he wants to use the identity of the Jiangling clan to analyze the domain power hidden in this inferior artifact.
According to Milo's original observation, there should be some incomplete information about the water and earth realms within the mountains and rivers seal, which is very suitable as one of his tools for studying the paths of the gods in this world.
Milo first came to the Hongze River, and then walked all the way up the river. Before walking for a long time, Milo felt that something seemed to be watching him in the river. After thinking for a moment, he understood that Qiong Yun had previously
Part of the reason for letting him come over so easily was probably because of the Hongze River God.
Guessing this, he ignored the other party's sight and kept moving forward. When he approached the upper reaches of the river, Milo saw a lot of water rushing out of the river, as well as the presence of inferior divine power inside the river.
'No wonder the Hongze River God came upstream earlier and it flooded like this. It seems that the second half of the previous storm tended to be more upstream.' Milo carefully recalled the specific circumstances of the storm and combined it with his own experience over the years.
Observing the surrounding terrain information, I concluded that after I obtained my current identity, the storm had changed to a certain extent, and the precipitation upstream should have nearly doubled.
Milo looked at the muddy road and didn't really want to go down. He instead walked into the jungle on the edge.
He planned to go around the area in front of him, but before he walked long, there were rapid sounds of waving wings in the surrounding jungle, followed by a large group of people whose backs were mainly reddish brown and whose abdomens were mainly dark yellow.
It has two pairs of bat-like membrane wings, six legs with sharp pincers, and a long, hollow needle-like beak similar to that of a mosquito.
"Stige bat?" Milo frowned slightly. This is a monster similar to the lizard man. With the interference and influence of the Western gods, it gradually appeared on the border of the Dragon Land. It has a bloodthirsty habit that is far superior to that of its Western cousins.
If the native stirges in the West still have the chance to be domesticated if they are regularly fed with blood, then the stirges around the Land of Shoulong have no possibility of being turned into pets.
These small monsters influenced by the gods are obsessed with the blood of the dragon people. They always fly out in groups and surround all the lonely dragon people. They use the claws on the top of the four membrane wings and sharp pliers to attack
It fixes itself on the prey's body, pierces the prey's body with its long beak, and then quickly detaches from the target until it drains the blood of the prey, and then flies to a quiet place for digestion and absorption.
'Is this also the effect of the previous storm?'
Milo frowned slightly. Previously, he stayed in Miaoyoutian and secretly observed the Land of Shoulong. Most of the time, he used the properties of the Yuanshi Orb to wander around libraries everywhere. Therefore, although he knew some things, he did not have an intuitive understanding.
.
It was as if the book recorded that after each influence of the God of Disaster, there would be many more monsters on the border, but he did not expect that he would encounter such a coincidence and face a swarm of nearly a hundred mosquito bats.
You know, according to the books that Milo read, mosquitoes are usually in a group of five to eight, and more than ten are considered a larger group. It is very rare for twenty or thirty to move together in the wild. Hundreds of them are like this.
It can be basically concluded that the group is not naturally formed.
'Fortunately Qiong Yun gave me some scrolls earlier, otherwise it would have been really hard to deal with.'
Milo thought, first releasing a piece of water mist to interfere with the perception of the mosquitoes and bats, and then tearing apart a scroll, producing tough and sticky threads out of thin air, intertwining with each other to form pieces of spider webs, connecting those
All the mosquitoes were trapped in it, and some of them saw the existence of the spider silk. However, in the mist, these little guys collided with each other and could not effectively avoid it. After a while, they all fell into the net.
Immediately afterwards, Milo opened his mouth slightly and made a sound similar to a dragon's roar.
This is a spell-like ability derived from Milo's own characteristics and existing data. Its properties are somewhat similar to sonic boom or the degraded Roaring Technique, which can cause a certain degree of sonic damage to the surrounding life.
This damage will only cause dizziness for most humans, but it has a very prominent effect on small monsters such as mosquitoes. Some mosquitoes that faced the dragon's roar were directly shocked to death, and the rest were also trapped.
The dizzy state allowed Milo to kill them one by one very easily.
It was also while killing these creatures that Milo felt subtle changes. After the death of each mosquito bat, subtle vitality and soul power would emerge from their corpses and converge around his body.
These energies are not directly absorbed by the body, but simply surround them, creating a state similar to a high-energy environment, allowing Milo's subsequent exercise and practice to achieve better results.
To put it simply, Fang Tianyu seems to be interesting in making people fight with each other. If Milo hadn't seen with his own eyes that Tianyu originated from Yuchen, he would have doubted whether these things were left by Yuchen.
But Milo, who has felt the power of Yuchen, knows very well that Yuchen does not need to do this at all, so the reason for these changes is likely to be based on the laws and principles of the universe itself.
'Is it the influence of Shinto, or is it because of the philosophy of this universe pioneer? However, according to this energy density and dissipation speed, the actual effect that can be exerted is only about 3% to 5%, and the final part can be absorbed
I'm afraid it's less than one percent of the energy emitted by stirges, and has almost no actual effect.'
Milo tried to gather these energies around himself, and after transforming them through Miao Youtian, injected them into his current body. His body immediately received a very weak improvement. These changes reminded him of the legend in the Western continent.
Son of Slaughter.
'According to the records I read in the books, the first sons of killing seemed to be the descendants of a certain killing god, and later referred to all beings who inherited the power of killing, death, souls and other divine gods, because they had the power to plunder life and souls
Ability, so the growth rate of the Son of Slaughter in the past has been much higher than that of normal professionals. Now that I can absorb 100% of the leaked life energy and soul energy, can it be considered a state similar to that of the Son of Slaughter?'
Milo was somewhat curious and killed another mosquito bat. He consciously absorbed the life energy emitted by it and found that it could increase by about 20 to 30%. His spiritual sense began to warn him further.
'More than 30% seem to have touched some taboo, and this rejection does not originate from this piece of heaven, so is it a problem with the universe itself? And apart from the energy emitted naturally, the only extra thing that can be obtained is this little bit, which is specially collected.
It's a bit more gain than loss...'
Milo gave up the idea of absorbing more of this energy. After killing all the stirges, he just absorbed the energy surrounding himself. Through this, his professional level took another step forward and he felt the mana in his body.
He has also recovered a lot.
Regarding mana, we have to talk about the conflict between the emperor Queen Tu and the magic goddess Mystic.
Because the Shoulong Land was robbed by the Western gods, this also led to the birth of the two pan-conscious gods, Huang Tian Hou Tu, who rejected the power of all Western gods. Even as a goddess of magic who controls the internal energy operation of the entire sky, she could not let the magic network
The power binds and aids the caster of Dragon Earth.
Therefore, within the Land of Shoulong, all spell casters have higher requirements for employment and it is more difficult to learn spells. However, they do not have so-called spell slot restrictions. Each spell caster has his own mana pool in his body.
, you can learn and release mana freely.
And this is one of the reasons why the originally neutral goddess of magic Mystic finally chose to unite with the Western gods to target the Land of Dragons.
The recovery of energy and the improvement of his body made Milo's pace much faster. According to his memory, he quickly found the altar he had sneaked into in the past, ignored the detection and spells targeting the non-Jiangling clan bloodline, and walked to the altar.
In the center, he reached out and grasped the blue and yellow treasure seal.
The moment Milo's palm grasped the treasure seal, a force flowed into Milo's body, affecting the blood in his body, and his life level and blood concentration also increased rapidly.
As a warlock, his professional level naturally progresses with the improvement of his bloodline.
Wisps of mist gradually appeared around Milo, and his consciousness was also affected by the power of blood. He felt as if he had turned into a fish dragon, swimming in a vast river, preying on small fish from time to time.
Replenish your own consumption.
Suddenly, Milo felt the power of the blood in his body calling him to move forward in a certain direction. He kept swimming forward along the long river, feeling many existences similar to himself along the way. Most of them fell halfway, and the remaining
Power is everywhere in the river.
The process of Milo's continuous advancement is also the process of constantly absorbing and accommodating those failed fish and dragons.
Slowly, Milo felt that he had come to a huge, waterfall-like place. On both sides and in front were towering steep cliffs. Only the water falling from above could pass through. He followed his instinct and went upstream.
go.
"Thump, thump..."
When he was about to reach the waterfall, Milo saw many ichthyosaurs similar to himself. They charged towards the top of the waterfall crazily, jumping up and down again and again. Their scales were broken in the collision with the water.
The blood gradually flowed out and became the energy of the river below. Some of it lost its breath after falling and drifted downstream with the water.
But all the ichthyosaurs around did not stop. They kept trying and jumping, until one jumped above the waterfall. Milo vaguely saw a huge portal with countless strange patterns on it, as well as various dragons.
The auras of many spirit dragons condensed on the carved carvings. The moment Milo saw the portal, he understood that as long as he jumped over it, he could inherit part of the spirit dragon's power.
'This is the secret of ichthyosaur evolution?'
Milo narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully observing the ichthyosaur that was about to succeed, but at this moment, wisps of dark clouds suddenly appeared above the portal. It was just a few at first, but soon turned into a cloud covering the sky.
Immediately afterwards, streaks of thunder emerged and fell violently, turning the fish and dragon into charcoal.
"The thunder of divine wrath? The power of Talos, the god of natural disasters?"
Milo's eyes widened. He didn't expect to see the opponent's power here again. At the same time, he also clearly understood what Qiong Yun said earlier about the God of Disaster interfering with the movement of the sky and greatly increasing the difficulty of upgrading the Jiangling clan's bloodline.
The horror contained.
A being with powerful divine power was so shameless that he directly took action during the promotion ceremony of a descendant of the Essence Dragon Clan.
But it is obvious that the spirit dragons in the past were not passively beaten, but also made some resistance. Images like this during the bloodline promotion process, as well as the feeling of absorbing the power of fish and dragons before, should be one of the means of resistance.
Now, Milo has reached the foot of the waterfall, his blood is boiling, and he cannot hesitate.
‘Besides, I’m not a normal ichthyosaur. I’m just cheating, isn’t it? Who wouldn’t! This is still my home court!’
Milo looked at the place where the dark clouds had gathered before, and swung his tail violently, hitting the water. The recoil made him jump up high, while his tail kept swinging, and his pectoral fins and pelvic fins opened and curled with the swing of his tail.
The wisps of water vapor turned into clouds and mist, making my body become lighter and lighter.
When the intensity of the upward thrust diminished, Milo followed the method of the fish and dragon before, swinging his body and treating the surrounding void as an undercurrent of water. He relied on his powerful perception and borrowed force from suitable nodes to move in the void.
Swim up and down.
During this process, Milo's [Dragon Travels Around the World] ability has been further improved. On the basis of the original, abilities similar to [Feather Fall Technique] and [Cloud Mist Technique] have been added, and as he jumps higher and higher,
Using the abilities of [Featherfall Technique] and [Cloud Mist Technique], he can further jump in a higher direction, and gain abilities similar to [Flying Technique].
In the records of the Miluo Treasure Scroll, the name of the ability [Dragon Travels All Around] was also changed to [Dragon Travels All Directions], which means that it is no longer limited to water, but can also play a certain role on land.
Relying on the recording and fixation power of the treasure scroll, Milo successfully gained an ability similar to flying and jumped to a position level with the portal.
At this time, the dark clouds gathered again, and the thunder fell. Milo flicked his tail violently, and a three-inch, six-and-a-half centimeter long wooden whip with twenty-one sections, each section blessed with four talismans, emerged from the clouds and mist.
He flew out and struck into the dark clouds, directly blocking the thunder. Then he swung the wooden whip and dispersed the surrounding dark clouds, allowing Milo to jump over the portal.
Immediately, wisps of spirit dragon aura surged out from the portal, surrounding the body of the fish dragon in Milo's consciousness at this time, penetrating into his body, allowing his blood to undergo the first round of transformation.
