"Four hundred and ninety-eight, four hundred and ninety-nine, five hundred... Phew... the last group is left."
Sean suddenly stood up from the water, breathing greedily. The steaming potion slid down the bumpy muscles. The temperature of the potion was amazing, and the skin turned dark red, just like a roasted crab.
If judged from the perspective of bodybuilding, Sean's figure is not perfect. The neck is too short and too thick, the muscles of the forearms and calves are too developed, giving people a sense of imbalance, the waist is too thick, and the top and bottom are like one body.
With the beauty of a wasp waist, if he participated in a bodybuilding competition, he would definitely not be able to get a chance to be a bodybuilder.
In the eyes of knowledgeable people, Sean's body structure is full of advantages, and he was born to fight and kill.
The short and thick neck makes it easier for him to defend his fatal vitals. This is one of the most fragile and vulnerable parts of the human body. It is not only the respiratory artery, but also the blood supply artery to the brain, but it is only supported by a fragile spine.
Here, either it is not attacked, but once it is attacked, it is often fatal.
The well-developed muscles on his forearms give him amazing grip strength, the well-developed calf muscles give him strong explosive power, and the thick waist allows him to coordinate his up and down movements, while also possessing terrifying explosive power, making it easier to draw a bow with half the effort.
This is the biggest difference between hunting and exercising in an indoor gym. The former exists for hunting and killing, while the latter exists for beauty.
However, compared to Marshall, who is also naked buttocks not far away, Sean is still better. Because of his height, Sean is more slender. The shorter Marshall is simply the spokesman for the iron bucket, as thick and well-developed from top to bottom.
The muscles almost jumped out from under the skin.
The other half-grown boys have more or less muscular outlines, but most of them are concentrated on their legs, which is the basis for their survival in the mountains and forests.
Except for Marshall who can keep up with Sean's training rhythm, the rest of them have long been drained of their last bit of energy. They are lying there without the strength to even speak. However, judging from their envious eyes, Sean and Marshall are the ones they
Chase the target later.
A week and a half had passed since the bear hunting. They stayed at the bear hunting ground for three days, simply processing most of the valuable materials on the spot, and reducing the load as much as possible. Those three days were the best memories of this group of half-year-olds.
One of the three days because they can relax and eat limited amounts of meat.
Not counting the soup and wild vegetables, in three days, they ate nearly 1,500 pounds of bear meat. On average, each person ate more bear meat than their own weight. This is the interpretation of the saying that a half-grown man will be poor.
of vividly.
Sean and the others did not go back to the village directly, but stayed in a private hunting lodge ten kilometers away from the village.
Perhaps because he has too many secrets, Sean prefers this place to his home in the village. Here he can do whatever he likes without restraint - as for these children, they have followed Sean since they became sensible, and they have followed Sean in their words and deeds.
Behaviors have long been assimilated, and even weird things have become normal since they were seen since childhood.
After eight years of construction and development, this place has long been separated from the domain of private hunting lodges - ordinary hunting lodges do not have vegetable gardens and wheat fields, nor do they have specialized storage rooms, steam baths, research rooms, training rooms and engineering workshops.
Sean and the others built this place completely as their own secret base. The dream of children in the previous life was unexpectedly realized in this life.
After regaining his composure, Sean took a deep breath, got back into the bath, and started a new round of counting.
one two three……
In this breath-holding situation, time becomes very slow, and the facial features become very sharp. Sean can even hear his own heartbeat clearly. He just remembered that it is not the number of seconds, but the number of his own heartbeats. As time goes by,
The heartbeat became slower and slower, and at the same time it became stronger and stronger, like a drum, beating his chest "dong dong".
"One hundred and ninety-eight, one hundred and ninety-nine, two hundred... here they come."
When he turned two hundred, a qualitative change that only Sean could experience was taking place in his body, his heart, and blood vessels.
The strange flame-like brand on Sean's right hand reappeared, but this time it did not disappear for a fleeting moment, but continued to flash, and fiery red blood vessels began to emerge and spread upwards along the arm - in the direction of the heart.
The temperature of the potion around Sean's arm was decreasing at an alarming rate, as if the heat of the potion was being sucked away by the flame-like brand.
This is also true.
What was sucked away by the flame-like brand on Sean's right hand was not only heat, but also other substances. The originally turbid potion was becoming clearer and clearer. In fact, it was now in the final stage. At the beginning, the potion was half
In the solid state, the temperature is as high as over 80 degrees. Most people come in and cook it half-cooked.
five hundred!
Tang En stood up again, no more, no less, exactly five hundred, and the bath water had returned to normal temperature and was very clear.
"The one-hour steam bath with the secret medicine of bear bones has been completed."
"Sixteen weeks of strength training completed."
"In this training cycle, a total of 0.45 attribute points were obtained, including strength 0.15, agility 0.05, physique 0.1, intelligence 0.05, will 0.05, and perception 0.05."
"The current main attributes are strength 1.8, agility 1.75, physique 1.65, intelligence 2.65, will 3.15, and perception 2.85."
"Please choose a new training mode - regular training, intensive training, extreme training."
"Intensive training."
"Please choose the direction of training focus - strength, agility, physical fitness, intelligence, and perception."
"strength."
"Strength-strengthening training mode has been selected. On the first day of the first week, run 30 kilometers at a variable speed on the mountain. Eight sets of standard frog jumps (200 reps per set), eight sets of standard bench press (200 reps per set), one
Eight sets of three-section shooting at 150 meters (each set is fifty), and a one-hour steam bath with secret medicine made from bear bones."
The flame-like brand did not disappear, but instead projected a translucent screen the size of a head, with a large number of small letters passing by. Both the translucent screen and the words were all twisted and composed of tiny flames.
The situation at this moment is very strange, but neither Sean nor the children bathing in the nearby bath have seen it before. No matter how strange something is, if it is born with it and has been with it for more than ten years, it will be normal. At most, it will be in those years.
The younger children exclaimed with envy, "That's awesome."
Brand of Fire.
This is what Sean calls it. The biggest and most essential difference between this world and the previous life is that magic exists in this world. Although this magic is not as powerful and omnipotent as imagined, it is indeed real.
What exists can be perceived and controlled by a very small number of people.
However, in this world, it is not called magic, but spells. Its inheritance relies heavily on talent. People with talent, even without the guidance of a teacher, will spontaneously awaken and become a warlock when the time comes. If
For people without talent, no matter how hard they work, it is difficult to come into contact with that invisible and immaterial power.
There is a very popular view in the Ashan continent that this kind of talent is not completely traceable, and bloodline occupies an extremely important position in it.
Sean had reservations about this view - he would have reservations about something that was completely beyond the scope of what he had learned in his previous life, especially a view without any physical evidence.
Sean is very lucky, very lucky. He is not only one of the very few, but also a minority of the few. This unique brand is not something that every warlock has.
According to Sean's mother, a Whisper level warlock, this magic mark will only be produced on people with Andis blood. This is what the ancestors of the Andis Empire left to their descendants three hundred years ago.
The precious wealth is the symbol of the king.
What kind of king's method is unknown, anyway, so far, Sean has not found any king's aura in himself.
Sean's first teacher in magic was his mother Elena. She was neither a qualified mother nor a responsible teacher. She was a person who acted on a whim.
When the interest comes, no matter whether Sean can understand or not, drag him over and instill a lot of magic knowledge. If he loses the interest, then throw him a bunch of obscure and unsystematized magic books for self-study.
Since Sean was weaned, Elena has been missing for two-thirds of the year. When she comes back occasionally, she is in a hurry and busy with her own affairs. If it weren't for the memory of his past life, would Sean have grown so big?
It's all an unknown quantity.
The influence is mutual. Perhaps it is the extraordinary independence shown since childhood that made Sean's mother develop this irresponsible habit.
As for his father, Sean has never seen him, and has never heard his mother mention it. It’s like Sean, who was bred by Elena herself. This person has never existed. If Sean hadn’t been 100% sure that Elena was his biological mother.
, you can't help but wonder if you are a character in a third-rate novel's bloody plot - someone who was adopted by Elena.
For Sean, the advantages of having such a mother obviously outweigh the disadvantages. At least most of the time, he doesn't have to try so hard to hide his differences. Even if he occasionally reveals his flaws, he can explain it with what he learned during her absence.
.
Sean's mother never doubted this. Like all mothers, she believed that her son was different. Even if he showed abnormalities occasionally, it was only natural, although Sean showed more abnormalities.
.
Since I don’t know when I was identified by Elena as having Su Hui, Sean no longer needs to explain anything he does - although it is not an exaggeration to say that Sean’s current situation is Su Hui.
Judging from the classics I have come into contact with, the research on magic in this world is more focused on application than the essence of magic. Even if there are occasional classics on the essence of magicians, they only focus on the so-called light, darkness, fire, water, and earth.
The wind element theory believes that these elements are the basic elements that constitute the world.
For Sean, who has received popular science education in modern physics of atoms and molecules, this theoretical theory deduced from the effects of magic is obviously untenable - the similarity between the two worlds is doomed to their composition and foundation.
The laws of physics would not be fundamentally different.
As his abilities grow and his understanding of magic becomes deeper, Sean becomes more certain about this. At least it is not that simple. Even magic must abide by the laws of physics. The law of conservation of energy is one of the core laws. It depends on
The energy that exists is transformed, not conjured out of thin air.
Casting spells is an extremely physically demanding thing. Just like the flame arrows he cast earlier, even with the help of special arrows, he could only cast three arrows at most and had to rest for half a week before fully recovering.
The arrows are made from the main stem of the alpine pine. The branches of this low alpine pine that only grow above three thousand meters above sea level not only have an amazing density, but are no worse in weight than steel of the same volume, they also have amazing oiliness.
A small branch can burn all night without being extinguished. This cold iron pine arrow turned into ashes in just ten seconds, so it cannot be self-combustion.
In fact, it had already been burned in the ten seconds of preparation before being fired. The power was artificially condensed by Sean, and then released instantly to achieve the purpose of attack.
