Chapter 14 In the Claws

July 24, 981 of the Fourth Age, was destined to be an extraordinary day in his life for Morses.

This is the first day of his life as a "transcendental one"!

Early this morning, after having dinner, Morses couldn't wait to come to Krabi's office, ready to receive the so-called "combat training."

As a qualified transcendental person, you must not just talk on paper. Only a transcendental person with actual combat capabilities can be considered a qualified transcendental person.

For scholars, the main way to fight is to use spells and arrange magic circles, so how to correctly use spells and magic circles to attack the enemy and how to avoid being approached by the transcendent fighter type has become the main learning topic.

And this is what Crabe wanted to teach Morses.

"Scholars will basically look for suitable materials to make spells and seal the prepared spells in them to achieve the purpose of instantaneous casting at critical moments." Krabei didn't waste any more nonsense. After starting to study, he went directly to the topic.

"The function of the staff is similar to this, but the magic circle can only speed up the casting of spells or allow the user to release higher-level spells, while the talisman can eliminate the process of casting spells." Krabe added.

"So, how should I make that thing?" Morsis frowned and asked.

"Ha, of course you can't do it now. You have to learn at least a few spells." Krabei smiled and continued, "After you learn it, you can carve specific spell marks on special materials and use your mental power to make the marks

Connected with that special material...

"In this way, you only need to inject arcane energy into it when using it."

"Well..." Morriss nodded while thinking, "So, what are we going to learn today?"

"Learn these..." Krabi picked up a book on the table and showed the cover to Morses.

"A collection of practical spells for low-level scholars?" Morsis's mouth twitched slightly and he said, "Is there anyone out there who is boring enough to write such a thing?"

"Yes, and that boring person is standing in front of you right now." Krabi moved his hand blocking the cover, revealing the author's name underneath.

"Crabbe Crevi".

"I compiled this casually when I was in the wilderness. I originally wanted to use the means of the wilderness to sell it to low-level scholars... But I later discovered that there are basically no low-level scholars in the wild." Krabe recalled the past events and said with emotion.

"Hmm...a very sad story." Morsis nodded and replied.

"Okay, enough chatter, let's start practicing... This is the only way for you to be able to stand alone." Krabbe said seriously, and then he was about to open the book, but there was a rapid knock on the door.

interrupt.

"Dean! It's bad! That guy Trey Mark brought a lot of people to make trouble!" Kilger's voice came in, looking very panicked.

Krabi frowned slightly and shouted loudly, "I'm going down right now!"

After saying that, he put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked towards the door.

"Old man, I'll go with you!" Morsis also stood up and said eagerly.

Unexpectedly, Krabi pushed him directly back to the seat.

"You stay here," Krabi said.

"But..." Morses wanted to say that he had the ability to act with him, but was interrupted by Krabi.

"This is the first lesson you have to learn, learn to be patient..." Krabi lowered his head, said something solemnly, and then opened the door and went out.

"Forbearance..." Morse repeated the word and could only sigh.

"Dong..." Suddenly, a very weak voice came into Morse's ears.

He stood up with a frown and looked around, but found nothing that could make that sound.

"Could it be that it's outside the door?" Morsis stood up, carefully opened the door, and looked towards the end of the corridor.

He only saw the rays of sunlight coming through the window, and didn't find anything special.

But Morsis's brows furrowed deeper because he felt something strange.

"The balance of arcane energy has been broken... Someone just used a transcendent ability outside the old man's magic circle!" Morsis thought of this, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Well, this is the second lesson, don't hesitate!

"



Krabi followed Kilger to the lobby on the first floor of the orphanage, and saw Trey Mark standing in front of a group of gangsters.

The gangster leader changed into light clothes today and put on a pair of boxing gloves, obviously ready for battle.

"Mr. Mark, it hasn't been a month, has it? Why are you here again..." After Krabi finished speaking, he looked around and continued, "It's still such a big battle. Why...do you think it's difficult to handle even an orphanage?

?”

Krabi mocked Trey directly without any mercy.

The staff of the orphanage stood behind Krabi, and they were also glaring at the gangsters at this moment.

"Stop being arrogant, Mr. Creevey..." Trey sneered, "I'm here to give you an ultimatum today. If you don't want to pay like everyone else on this street, I'll let you

Know my methods..."

"That's it..." Hearing this, Krabi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "It turns out that he has a backer. No wonder he has become so tough. Lennon Sivans has taken on a younger brother?"

Before Krabi finished speaking, the veins on Trey's head stood out one by one. His temper was not very good to begin with, and Krabi's words about the sore spot made him extremely angry.

"Damn scholar, don't worry about those boring trivial matters. There is only one thing I want to ask today. Will you agree to my request?" Trey shouted at the top of his lungs, but did not attack.

Because Lennon had reminded him to try not to directly conflict with Krabi. Inside this orphanage, even Lennon had no way to defeat Krabi.

Therefore, today he just needs to delay time.

As for why we need to delay, we will talk about it later.

"Scholar, don't think I'm afraid of you!" Trey opened his palm, picked up a stone from the ground, and crushed it to pieces.

The staff at the orphanage and the gangsters behind Trey swallowed subconsciously when they saw this scene.

God, what kind of strange power is this?

"Why, you still work as a circus clown part-time? You're pretty good at this trick." Krabi shrugged and said with a brisk smile.

After hearing this, the staff at the orphanage all smiled more or less, and Krabi's joke obviously made them escape from the panic caused by Trey.

"You bastard!" Trey gritted his teeth, and the gravel in his hand gradually fell and scattered on the ground.

"Boss, he's just a thin old man, why are you afraid of him?" Beside Trey, a tall and thick man walked straight towards Kela Beixing without waiting for Trey's reply, and said, "Hey, old man...

"

Suddenly, he stopped where he was, and fear gradually replaced his original arrogant expression.

"I'm only forty-nine years old, don't call me old man...after all, I won't forgive you easily!" Krabei's expression remained unchanged, staring straight at the man opposite, and said, "Why don't you come, are you scared?

"

"Yes... I'm sorry!" The tall and thick man suddenly knelt on the ground, lowered his head as if worshiping a god, and kept saying apologies.

"Is that enough, scholar?" Trey said suddenly after looking at it for a while.

"Oh?" Krabi glanced at Trey, shrugged, and said, "Then I'll forgive him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man collapsed on the ground as if he was relieved, gasping for air, tears and snot flowing out uncontrollably.

"Where did we just talk? Mr. Trey Mark... Oh, I remembered, it was about your part-time job in the circus." Krabi spread his hands and said with a smile.

"Don't be too arrogant, scholar!" Trey Mark gritted his teeth and said harshly.

"Do you know any other words? Just those few threats over and over again, and you usually dress so politely, I thought you were an intellectual." Krabi continued to activate the poisonous tongue attribute, starting from the point that Trey paid most attention to, and fiercely

mocked him.

"I, I can't bear it anymore..." A few syllables were squeezed out from Tre Mark's teeth, and they were spelled into one sentence with great difficulty, "I want, I want to kill you!"

After saying that, Trey must put all his strength on his feet and run towards Krabi at all costs, fighting with him at the risk of his life.

At this moment, a hand patted his shoulder, stopping his movements.

"I'm sorry for his reckless behavior, Mr. Creevey, I hope you don't mind." Lennon Sivens appeared behind Trey at some point and said in his standard Tussock aristocratic accent.

"Mr. Sivens, how could a gentleman like you associate with these gangsters?" Crabbey used an accent on the words 'gentleman' and 'gangster', mocking Lennon without leaving any trace.

"Your attitude is very special today. Is it because you have no scruples?" Lennon looked at Krabi and said with a sneer.

"Who knows..." Krabi also looked at Lennon and imitated his tone.

The gangsters behind Trey and the staff behind Kelabi were dumbfounded at this moment. They had no idea what was going on, and they had no idea who this gentleman who suddenly appeared was.

But they can see that this is a person who can compete with Krabi in terms of power of speech.

"I know more than just superficial phenomena, and I no longer have to worry about other factors." Lennon sneered, implicitly indicating that he had cooperated with the Empire.

"Surface? I would like to know how much you understand." Krabi said with a smile.

"That depends on your imagination." Lennon shrugged and continued, "Don't worry, I will achieve my goal without using any force."

"Then I wish you success." Krabi put away his smile and said.

"I also wish you success." Lennon narrowed his eyes, turned around and said to Trey, who had a dull look on his face, "Let's go, that's all for today."

Although he didn't understand the conversation between the two men, Trey didn't dare to delay Lennon's order, so he stopped thinking about it and called his men to leave the orphanage.

Seeing the large group of people walking out of the door, Krabi stretched out a hand to rub his forehead and whispered, "The plan can't keep up with the changes..."

Krabi also turned around, looked at the staff who were full of doubts, and said, "It's okay, everyone, please go back."

He said no more, walked up the stairs alone, and disappeared around the corner.
