Ling skipped school for a week, and even though she had a special sick leave approval from Irina Leinfort, the permanent director of the Torz Military Academy, her senior instructor, Mulla Vandel, was still a little unhappy.
However, after seeing that she was so weak that she seemed to collapse at the slightest touch, the words that she originally intended to teach her turned into concerned inquiries.
"Is your body okay?"
"I don't have any big problems. It won't affect my study progress, instructor."
The moment he was stared at by Ling, Mu La had the illusion of needles pricking his back. But it seemed that everything was just his illusion. When he came back to his senses, the Ling in front of him clearly had a soft and weak posture.
Rehabilitation is not easy. The torn muscles require long-term training to return to their original state. But thanks to the strong physique acquired through previous training, Ling's body was not torn apart by Patil Matil.
Ling's explanation to the school was that there was an accident and she was hit by a force-guided truck and that's why she was so seriously injured. But the actual situation was only known to her. Sharon was very curious about who beat Ling like this. After all,
In her impression, Ling's strength was on par with hers.
Ling would not tell her that she had a fight with Patil Mathil and made herself behave like this.
In fact, her gains far outweighed her losses. Now she is as sharp as an unsheathed sword, but she hides this very well in front of others. Even Vita and Sharon did not notice her.
The hidden truth. In the battle with the leader, she finally broke through her limits and glimpsed a corner of a higher realm.
Ling has entered the master class.
Although her master class may not be able to defeat most A-level guerrillas before she recovers her health, she clearly knows that she has entered a higher level.
It's not the kind of truth that a sword master will eventually reach through continuous improvement of his swordsmanship.
Nor is it the Shura pursued by the top-notch powerful men in the association who transcend their own limits.
What Ling understood may be something completely different from them.
Weapons are an extension of the warrior's body.
Will is an extension of a warrior's life.
Engraving will and belief into the fighting spirit, and delivering real damage and defense-breaking effects during attacks, this is where Ling's true power currently lies.
This understanding had nothing to do with strength or skills, but something at the level of state of mind. She realized very deeply that it was precisely because reality on the continent of Samlia could be changed by will, that this operation was possible.
Although it is based on burning life, it is not simply burning life. It is more like the feeling of burning soul? Ling didn't know how to describe it better.
The heart is as clear as glass, and the ambition is as strong as diamond.
As long as she maintains this state of mind, even as weak as she is now, she can still launch that kind of extraordinary attack that is filled with all her heart and soul.
If Ling were to establish her own sect, the name of the sect could probably be Kongo-ryu, but she still had no such plans.
In terms of strength, skills, and fighting spirit, she is still far behind the real masters. The improvement of her realm will not directly increase her strength, but will greatly increase the upper limit of what she can reach in the future.
But now that the bottleneck has been broken, the rest is just a grind.
Taking into account the swordsmanship levels commonly circulated in the empire, including the first biography, the middle biography, and the arcana, her swordsmanship has almost crossed the threshold of the first biography and touched the edge of the middle biography. Don't make sense, even if it is not close to the arcana, it is still far behind.
Very far. She didn’t specialize in sword training originally. Although Levi taught some in the past, when completing tasks as an executor, she mostly used double daggers in combat. For serious sword training, she chose to cut.
After using Ma Jian as her own weapon, by the way, the force-guiding sword that was transformed with a large amount of u-matter was also destroyed in the Sun Fortress, which made Ling feel a little strange and pity.
But after hearing the secrets about weapon storage from the Saint of Steel, she originally planned to build a new weapon.
"Semlian stone", in the inner knowledge left to her after the leader was eliminated, is called the sword spirit stone. This is the name of the ancient alchemists. The method of making the Semlian stone is
It is an ultra-precious mineral that guides the flow of Qiyao Veins to form crystals and is completed through the precipitation of years. The "Qiyao Veins Refinery" is actually not unfamiliar to Ling. It is the elf cave near the former d∴g cult stronghold. It's just that
The "Samlian Stones" inside had all been used by the people of the religious sect, so Lingcai had not seen the real ones.
The knowledge left by the leader to Ling was much more detailed than what Ling learned through the plot of the "Kiseki of Cold Steel" game.
According to the knowledge passed down by the leader, Ling further knew that more than ten elf caves had been built on the continent of West Semlia. The Star Cave where the Star View Tower in Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture is located is one of them. She already knew
There are elf caves with ten attributes: earth, fire, water, wind, ice, sun, moon, star, saint, and dragon. Earth, fire, water, and wind are lower-level attributes among the seven attributes, and ice is the water attribute.
Variants, and the sun, moon, star, saint, and dragon are composite attributes in lost magic. Although there are also ancient relics such as Jiaoyang Pearl, Lingyue Pearl, Huangxing Pearl, Savior Saint Pearl, and Roaring Dragon Pearl, they have all been destroyed by the Seven
The Church of Yao has kept it well hidden, and the Church has no intention of exposing it to others for study.
By processing seven different types of radiant chips, the seven radiant attributes can be set on the force guide. However, with the current development of force guide technology, it is still impossible to reproduce the composite attributes of the sun, moon, star, saint, and dragon.
Yang attribute, combined with the composite attributes of fire, air, and wind (flash 2 burnt sun beads, blazing sun explosion).
Moon attribute, a composite attribute that combines fire, magic, and water (Flash 2 Ling Moon Beads, Tears of the Moon God).
Star attribute, combined with the composite attributes of fire, time and earth (flash 2 brilliant star beads, star cup burst).
Holy attribute, a composite attribute that combines time, space, and illusion (Flash 2 Save the Holy Pearl, Paradise Lost).
Dragon attributes, combined with the composite attributes of earth, water, and wind (Flash 2 Dragon Ball Roar, Storm Roar).
Although the d∴g cult once occupied several spiritual caves and used them as strongholds, most of the spiritual caves that Ling knows now have nothing to do with the cult, such as the isolated island of ruins in the northwest of the Erebonia Empire.
Yangling Cave on Brionia Island, Wind Spirit Cave near Stonehenge on the Nord Plateau, Earth Spirit Cave near Shuanglong Bridge east of Galeria Fortress, etc.
Ling planned to take advantage of the five-day summer vacation of her first school year to go to the Longling Cave in the Aglia Gorge of Sasarante State to obtain the Samlian Stone there. It also belonged to the territory of Marquis Haines and was close to Ling's hometown.
Tuturk is quite close. It can be regarded as a drop-in without wasting extra time.
With Sharon's study notes, the one-week window period was quickly made up for Ling. The classmates were very enthusiastic to inquire about Ling's physical condition, but basically they were dealt with by Ling in an understatement. Only
Claire seemed to have noticed something, but Vita and Sharon, who had re-incarnated as "Misty", covered her up and did not let her notice any specific details. And Lecter's attention was not focused on his classmates at all.
He seems to be more concerned about the situation of some people in Classes 1 and 2 than his classmates. It's no wonder that the Iron-Blooded Prime Minister is a representative of the reformist faction, and Claire and Lecter are the Prime Minister's confidants. It is impossible for him to treat the noble students differently.
Pay attention.
In the fighting building, Ling still insisted on training with the ancient horse-cutting sword. And the basic training of the body never stopped. The body that had been torn once was re-trained and successfully reached a new stage. Ling successfully reached a new stage.
Her snatch strength has surged from three times her own weight (3bw) to five times her own weight (5bw). You must know that her weight has increased a lot compared to before entering school. According to Shenzhili's past analysis, this was originally what she thought
It was a level that he could only reach when he grew up. But after using the principle of the body again, Ling found that it had not yet reached the limit of her body's power. This may be the so-called "no destruction, no establishment," breaking and then establishing.
In addition to physical exercise, she also began to practice the practice of releasing fighting energy. She did not practice Qigong Wave like in Dragon Ball, but referred to the way Yusuke Urameshi practiced the Spiritual Light Wave Fist in Yu Yu Hakusho. The specific method is:
After doing a handstand with one hand, lift the palm off the ground, then slowly reduce the number of fingers used for support, and use fighting energy instead of fingers to support the balance of the body. Ling can already keep the tip of the index finger five miles away from the ground after retracting four fingers.
This method consumes physical energy. After the first successful levitation, she could only hold on for a few seconds before being unable to maintain it. However, after persistent and complicated practice, Ling can now maintain the suspension for more than half an hour.
Thanks to her hard training, her total amount of Dou Qi has also increased explosively. Compared to the time when she could barely hang in the air, it has increased by about seven hundred times. If she releases her Dou Qi with all her strength, the radius of the Dou Qi circle produced can be close to two moments.
Because there is no one with the same level of strength to compare with, it is difficult for her to know the extent of her behind-the-scenes hard training. But if she compares it with the Saint of Steel whom she remembered fighting side by side with a few months ago, Ling feels that
I'm still far from it. With that kind of terrifying fighting spirit that sweeps across the entire stronghold, Ling is probably only one-fiftieth of the seventh sister at most... No, maybe not even one-seventy-seventh of hers. Lenovo
When Markbon and Levi were able to compete head-to-head with the Seventh Sister, she felt that she still had a long way to go.
In addition, Ling would occasionally run with Vita to investigate the situation of the old school building. Although she could feel the presence of strong superior attributes, the Sealed Land did not directly reveal the subspace on the surface like the Elf Cave.
It can also be said that there is not enough time?
Vita actually encouraged Ling to complete the trial and see if she could pass the trial and become the initiator of Valima, the Gray Riding God.
"You should know that I was born in the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture, right? I'm not from the Empire at all." Ling remembered that the plot of the trial "Se no Kiseki 1" seemed to mention that a corresponding bloodline was required to activate it.
"The dark hair color and amber pupils are proof of the strong imperial bloodline. Although it is quite rare in foreign countries such as Libel. But in the empire, you can see it on the streets. Among the imperial people
One-fifth of them have amber eyes. If Ling told the class that she was not from the Empire, I guess most of them wouldn't believe it."
Vita spoke seriously and made unfounded remarks. As for the eye color, it seemed to be true as she said. Ling did not know where her grandparents were from, and she had no interest in such things. Toli
The maze underground of Star's old school building had been cleared over and over again by her and Vita, but there had been no movement related to the trial.
Time flies, and it’s the end of July in a blink of an eye.
Most of Thorz's final exams were written questions, which were not very difficult for Ling. There were more comprehension questions than rote memorization questions, which was also a special characteristic of Thors.
As always, she ranked first in her grade. She was also praised individually by Principal Van Dyke. Although this was not something worth bragging about for Ling. Because of her amazing memory and understanding gained through the development of her powers, she
The results obtained are no different from those obtained by cheating. However, these are not enough for outsiders.
The aristocratic class has a tradition of learning to manage territories, so they usually have two months of vacation. The civilian class only has five days of summer vacation. This kind of differential treatment is a common phenomenon throughout the Erebonia Empire, but for Ling,
Five days is actually quite enough.
Instead of taking Patil Matil to go home, she chose to take the guided train. On the one hand, it was also to experience the feelings of her student days, which was not a bad feeling.
In the old capital of Baiya, Saint-Jacques, she changed trains and returned to Tutunrk. The villagers, whom she had not seen for more than half a year, expressed great enthusiasm for the return of a fellow villager.
Levi is still not at home, but he seems to have come back several times. Not only has the decoration of the room changed, but also several different styles of rag dolls have been added to Ling's room... although those cheap ones are far inferior to Ling's own.
The dolls were exquisitely made, but she still carefully put them into the suitcase to be checked to Tolista. This was a gift Levi bought her! A doll that she could make in a day.
The portion sizes are completely different!
Ling stayed in Tutunke for about two days, showing up in front of every house, and bringing some souvenirs bought from Tolista to them. If it was in the past, she would never have done it.
She has this kind of mentality, but since Crossbell returned, she has become much more cheerful than before, so she has become a little more humane.
After bidding farewell to the villagers, Ling left Tutunrk, and then embarked on the journey to Longling Cave to find the Samlian Stone.
