The Divine Hunter Chapter 29: Magic erosion

A week later in the evening, Roy sat in the mill barn, focusing on the template:

Personal level lv3 (0/1500)

Has skill point 1, attribute point 1

If it were changed to the past, he would continue to concentrate resources on improving advantageous attributes, and still add attribute points to the perception of 7 points.

But recently his thoughts have changed, and he realizes that every improvement in strength now should be prepared for the Green Grass Trial.

No matter how high he stacks his perception, if he fails to survive the Green Grass Trial and dies, then everything will be in vain. According to what Lei Suo said before leaving, the apprentice's will to survive and the body's resistance to poison will affect the trial survival rate, and the higher the better.

The attributes corresponding to these two indicators are will and physique respectively. The former's Roy was only 4.8, which was less than the average 5, and the latter's had just reached the standard due to the herbs he had swallowed.

So from now on, the attribute points and skill points he obtains from upgrading should be used as much as possible to improve these two attributes.

Roy glanced at the skill bar.

Meditation lv1: This is a practice of the body and mind. It regulates the body and mind through trance and speeds up the recovery of injuries, magic power and physical energy. At the same time, the coordination ability is slowly improved and the affinity for chaotic energy is increased.

Note: Each time this skill is improved, the physical and mental attributes will be permanently enhanced.

The demon hunter Leisuo is old enough to be his grandfather, but he failed to train meditation to level 10. One can imagine the difficulty. The most important thing is that it can permanently enhance the spirit and physique... With this thought, Roy focused his attention on the plus sign behind "Meditation". Suddenly, the writing of lv1 blurred and faded, and turned into lv2 after a few seconds.

Roy then added attribute points to will.

In an instant, a warm current surges through the limbs, and every piece of skin, muscle, bone, and blood vessel is activated, like a tree root piercing the soil, quickly absorbing nutrients and becoming tougher and stronger.

The brain, the most mysterious area in the skull, also received some kind of moisture, and was wrapped in a cool breath. For a moment, it seemed as if countless small hands were gently stroking it, making every cell feel comfortable. Gotta scream.

Roy opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes flashed with light as bright as stars. But it only lasted for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Meditation lv1→lv2

Spirit 6→6.5

Physique 5→5.5

Will 4.8→5.8

In an instant, a total of two points of attributes were improved, and Roy had an "illusion" that was unprecedentedly powerful.

The transformation was still going on. When he stood up and twisted his neck, wrists, knees and other joints, his whole body began to crackle and numb, as if there were ants crawling over it, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

His face turned red and he was overly excited. His chest was inexplicably full of courage and confidence. He suddenly felt that he would not be tired even if he ran for a day and a night, and that he could face any challenge head on.

"Huh..." Roy took a deep breath, clenched and unclenched his fists, suppressed his restless mood, sat on the haystack and meditated for a quarter of an hour, until his body and mind returned to calm.

Ordinary people can slowly increase their attribute value by 1 point after years of training and countless accumulations, but he increased it by 2 points in just a few minutes. Feeling unwell is normal.

Roy thought of the Green Grass Trial from this. In a short period of time, the transformation and improvement of the body by the green herbal medicine will be far beyond what it is now, reaching a level that can be called terrifying. This discomfort will probably evolve into extreme pain, so The test pass rate is so low.

……

At the other end of the barn, a slight groan suddenly came from a simple straw mat.

"Toya, you're awake, how do you feel?" Roy walked to the straw mat and sat down, stretched out his hand to explore the smooth forehead of the girl under the quilt, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The body temperature is normal, it seems that the yam is It worked."

"Roy...I, what's wrong with me?" The girl was still wearing the apron she wore when working, but her appearance was haggard, her eyes were dim, and her lips were frighteningly white, as if she was seriously ill.

"You suddenly passed out while sweeping the floor today and developed a high fever..." Roy explained patiently, "Oona and Henk found out and sent you in. But don't worry, I'll give it to you. I gave her some herbs and the fever has subsided."

"That's it..." After hearing this, Toya stubbornly supported her body with her hands and sat up. With Roy's help, she took a few sips of water and said gratefully, "I've made you worry again...you take care of me. You must be tired, why don't you go and rest first?"

Roy shook his head after hearing this, looked into the girl's eyes and asked, "Toya, we are friends. Tell me honestly, this is not the first time you have been in a coma, right?"

The girl squatted on the straw mat, hugged her knees with both hands, and put her chin on them. A trace of confusion and fear flashed across her face, and her voice trembled slightly, "I don't know what's wrong with me. My body. He has so many problems, not only the hunchback that everyone dislikes, but also he keeps passing out for no reason, has a high fever, and talks nonsense."

"Even my biological father dislikes me and doesn't want to talk to me."

"Roy," Toya suddenly asked in a low voice, "Am I a burden to be alive?"

"Toya, you are by no means a burden!" Roy said sincerely, "It has been a pleasure getting along with you for more than half a month. It proves that you are a qualified listener and that you are so diligent and smart."

"It's just that you are trapped in a prison-like mill, surrounded by mostly short-sighted and narrow-minded people, and you don't make many friends, which makes you have wrong ideas."

"Is that so?" After hearing this, the girl's eyes regained a trace of brightness.

"Of course..." Roy nodded, "How do you feel now? I want to know more about your disease..."

"I have no problem," the girl took a deep breath, "just ask."

"When did your coma begin? Is it becoming more and more frequent?"

"How long did it start?" The girl frowned and thought for a moment, "Probably since my body became deformed."

"It happens every year. At first it happened once a year, and now it happens four or five times a year." Toya said with a stagnant tone and self-pity, "I always feel that after a certain coma, I never wake up again. But I’m coming.”

"But if this is the destination prepared for me by the goddess Meriteri, then I accept it. It would not be bad to fall into eternal sleep without any pain or knowledge."

"Toya, you are still very young, and your life is full of infinite possibilities..." Roy comforted and then asked, "Think about it again, are the onset times in recent years close to those? Festivals, such as New Year, Winter Solstice, Spring Solstice, Summer Solstice..."

"The last time it happened was on the day of Harvest Festival...The last time it happened was probably around May Day," Toya said in surprise, "You were right, Roy."

"Then I guessed it right...the closer you get to the magic point, the easier it is for the magic in your body to resonate, lose control, and harm your body," Roy sighed, looking at the girl with eyes full of pity.

During observation, her physical constitution weakened from 3 to 2.8 after this coma, and her vitality was visibly weakening.

"What does the magic point mean?" Toya was curious and frightened, "And...why is there magic in my body?"

"Don't worry, Toya, I will tell you everything..." Roy said, "Do you remember the Arethusa Academy on Thaned Island that I told you about last time?"

"I remember every word you said very clearly." The girl said, "Is that a place dedicated to training female warlocks?"

She took out the Gwent card that Roy had given her from under the pillow. On it was a beautiful woman with fiery hair and a red dress. She did not hide the envy on her face, "Just like Sabina... Grievesig, he can do magical magic, which is even more powerful than the magic you perform!"

"Yes..." Roy took a deep breath, "But you know, many sorceresses, when they were young, were not as beautiful as they looked on the cards."

Toya suddenly held her breath and her expression became stiff. She had a strong feeling that the other person was going to say something that frightened her.

"Most of them were like you in the beginning..." Roy pondered for a while, then slowed down his tone and said word by word, "Because he has been tortured by the out-of-control magic power in his body since he was a child, he looks different from others. Later, I went to a magic academy to receive magic training, and then I slowly corrected myself."

Roy's preparation in the previous half month has made the girl slightly aware of the mysterious corner of the world, and her ability to accept it has been greatly improved.

"You...you mean..." Toya's teeth began to chatter, and an unprecedentedly crazy thought came out, and she almost suffocated. "I...I..."

"That's right...the eight magic points are the eight festivals where magic boils. Because you have magic power in your body, you will resonate with them and fall into a coma close to the festival." Roy emphasized his tone. , "Simply put, you have the qualifications to become a warlock, as long as you have the opportunity to go to Arethusa for training. And as far as I know, Arethusa accepts girls from almost all corners of the world, regardless of poverty or appearance. , as long as you agree to their harsh contract."

"Just like her?" Toya tugged on the card tightly, her knuckles turning white. "Can I be like her and get my body back to normal? No longer will I be discriminated against, scorned, and ridiculed?!"

"If you can become a warlock, with the help of magic transformation, of course your body can return to normal."

"Woo, woo--" Toya suddenly sobbed in her throat, leaning slumped against the damp and moldy wall of the barn, big tears sliding down her pale cheeks.

The expression on his face was extremely complicated, looking both sad and happy.

"No, Roy, you lied to me, right?" Toya couldn't believe it, "You are my friend, you can't lie to me!"

"I can swear," Roy said solemnly, "I definitely didn't deceive you... I just wanted to give you one more choice."

"No!" Toya had a hint of heartbeat on her round face, and suddenly shook her head, "I am an ordinary little country girl who has never left the mill."

"I can't go anywhere, Henk and Oona won't let me go."

"And you also said that Arethusa is far away from Edsberg, thousands of miles away, so far away that I will never be able to reach it."

Roy was silent.

What Toya said is true. Most of the parents of sorceresses refuse to send them to the so-called sorcerer academy. ~IndoMTL.com~ Because joining the Warlock Academy means being completely separated from your original family. It doesn't do their parents any good.

And these greedy parents are more willing to oppress them to death as free labor.

"I'll help you think of a solution, Toya." Now that the plan has started, it's not Roy's style to give up halfway.

He already had a rough solution in his mind, and it was an inspiration that came to him not long ago.

"Toya, I have to tell you the truth. Every time you faint, it means that your body is further eroded by magic and suffers damage. You should be able to feel it, right? Your body is getting weaker and weaker. If you cannot receive regular magic in time, Training." Roy licked his dry lips, "I'm not sure you can live to be twenty."

“Don’t you want to go see the outside world?”

In this ignorant era, a little country girl with a deformed body will probably spend her short life in pain and suffering.

But Roy always believed that she deserved a chance. Once you have an idea, you must turn it into a plan and put it into practice. This is his credo.

Besides, if you give Toya a chance, maybe you will get an opportunity in the future.

Excited or scared, the girl's shoulders kept shaking, "Roy, you... you are not an ordinary person, are you? Why do you know this knowledge, and why do you tell me?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. If I were in another situation with you, would you help me?" Roy asked, and then he saw the answer in the girl's eyes that yearned for freedom.

A solid and strong palm and another small hand covered with frostbite were held together.

"Friends should help each other...Toya, just wait, you will eventually see the sunrise on Arethusa. I promise you."
