Ark of the Immortal

There was another crisp sound, and Maria could barely resist the stick aimed at her head.

Regarding the fact that her teacher was ruthless, Maria already understood it as early as the first time he hit her with a stick.

The undead's attacks are never merciful. They are either aimed at the forehead, or at key parts such as the neck, heart, and wrists.

He is really not afraid of hurting his little apprentice!

Maria gasped, trying to block the undead attack was not an easy task.

"Come again!"

Maria was adjusting her breathing when the undead man hit her with another stick.

boom!

Maria was reluctant to resist, and tried to dodge, but she dodged in the wrong direction.

This stick was aimed at Maria's left shoulder, and hit it really hard.

"hiss!"

Maria took a breath. She clearly felt that her left shoulder had been attacked by a huge force. She seemed to hear a faint sound of cracking bones in the knocking sound.

"Maria!"

Zofia on the side saw the accident and immediately rushed over from the side in distress.

But the undead man still raised the iron rod in his hand.

"Don't come here! Maria, watch out!"

Maria looked up subconsciously. She saw a steel rod being lifted up by the undead and smashed down on the head!

The solid iron rod made of fine iron broke through the air and struck at little Kuranta's fragile head!

At that moment, it was too late to raise her right hand, and she could only watch blankly as the iron rod was knocked down.

Wow!

But just when the iron rod was about to hit Maria's forehead, it stopped firmly in the air.

Maria blinked, she still hadn't reacted yet.

When her right hand subconsciously lifted the iron bar that almost hit her head from bottom to top, she realized that she had just walked through the gate of hell.

"If I am an enemy."

The undead man gently hit Maria on the head with a steel rod.

"You are already dead."

"Ah...yes! Hiss...it hurts!"

Only then did Maria understand why the undead man had just let her take care of him. It was to let her understand the consequences of being injured.

Sometimes, the pain caused by a small injury can make another fatal injury come early.

This is why the undead man had to let Maria get used to being beaten by him first.

Because in Casimir, no one can attack more fiercely and deadly than the undead.

It was a killing skill honed through countless life-and-death fights during an unknown journey.

Perhaps, sometimes, it’s not just people who are killed.

It is precisely this that makes his attacks more unpretentious and more chilling.

Zofia was also frightened by the undead man's swing.

The legs in black silk stockings that had been told to stop by the undead started running again.

When passing by the undead man, he couldn't help but give the undead man a fierce look.

Are there any teachers like you? !

The Immortal Human Rights Pretended that he didn't see it, he threw the iron rod next to the bonfire and watched Zofia carefully pull off the clothes from Maria's shoulders.

A large red swelling had formed on her left shoulder. Even if Zofia gently opened her clothes, Maria could not help but bite her teeth to prevent herself from shouting.

"It's bad, this injury..."

Zofia glanced at the undead man again, and said helplessly.

"Today's training has to stop. Maria needs some rest."

The undead man came to Maria and took a look at the swelling on her shoulders, but he shook his head and said.

"No need. Take a rest and continue."

Zofia couldn't help it, the immortal teaching method. For a little girl of thirteen or fourteen, it was too cruel.

"Her shoulder is swollen like this! If it's just a normal scar, I'm afraid your shoulder blade will be cracked due to this injury. If she doesn't receive timely treatment, her left hand will be affected!"

The immortal asked in confusion.

"Her Origin Stone skills can't heal?"

"No! The most it can do is emergency treatment of external injuries, and the internal injuries will have to be treated later. You don't think that Origin Stone skills are omnipotent, do you?"

Zofia was about to pick up Maria.

"She needs to go to the hospital for treatment immediately!"

"do not move."

The undead man stretched out his right hand and held Zofia down as she stood up.

He raised his left hand and gently placed it on Maria's left shoulder.

"What are you doing...?!"

Zofia was about to ask the undead man what he wanted to do.

A soft white light lit up and flowed between the palms of the undead man.

The light reflected in the eyes of Zofia and Maria, causing them to freeze in place in shock.

Is this... Source Stone skill?

The undead man looked at the light in his hand seriously, and he tried to recall the matching story in his mind.

That is the shortest corner of the ancient legend, the first story studied by the ancient priests.

Miracle [Recovery].

"This is us...no! This is not the Linguang family's Origin Stone skill."

Zofia asked subconsciously.

"Are you an infected person?"

Maria didn't care that much. She only felt a numbness in her left shoulder, followed by an indescribable sense of comfort and a reassuring warmth.

It was as if she was quietly sunbathing right now.

This warmth made Maria feel drowsy and wanted to fall asleep under this warm light.

The light lasted for about four or five seconds.

By the time the undead man took back his left hand, Maria's left shoulder had returned to its original state, white and elastic.

"Amazing!"

Feeling that there was nothing abnormal about her left shoulder, Maria couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration.

"I'm not an infected person."

The undead man shook his head.

"Then how can you release the Origin Stone spell with your bare hands?!"

Zofia's eyes gradually became serious. In Casimir, concealing the identity of an infected person was a serious crime.

Previously, Margaret was expelled from the country by the Business Alliance for concealing the identity of the infected person.

The immortal explained.

"This is a miracle."

Zofia suddenly choked.

Although she knew that the undead would probably have to explain themselves, she didn't expect the undead's reasons to be so simple and crude.

What a miracle, is it to coax a child! ?

32.devout believer

"So, you said that the Origin Stone skill you just used can be used as long as you are willing to believe the story?"

Zofia looked at the undead man with a look that looked like a fool.

"No, Origin Stone skills. Yes, miracles."

The Immortal tried to correct Zofia's point of view again.

The spell he used before was a low-level miracle called [Restoration].

The specific principle is actually to hold the token, chant the deeds of the ancient gods, and sincerely believe that it is a real thing, so that you can reproduce the spell in your own hands.

It's easier said than done. To truly believe in the gods is a process that requires years of hard work.

And if one's own mental strength is insufficient, it is easy to fall into a state of lack of mental strength, in other words.

As for the immortal himself, he was constantly honing his mental strength during his long journey, and was slowly able to gradually recreate those miracles in his own hands.

Moreover, during the journey, he could also see those miracles in the hands of other immortals.

In other words, miracles are originally a spell passed down by word of mouth. If you don't understand the story, you can't reproduce it.

For example, [Restoration], the first miracle used by all priesthoods, has already simplified the original story to the point where it cannot be simplified any more.

At the time of the Immortals, it was already difficult to see the ancient gods using their power again to recreate the miracles of the past.

"Where did you hear this mysterious witchcraft? Do you really think I would believe it?"

Zofia was already angry. She thought the undead man was making up stories to lie to her.

In fact, what will happen even if the undead are infected? As long as he doesn't use it in knightly competitions, it won't have any impact on his identity.

Moreover, Zofia and Maria will not be separated from the undead because of their status as infected persons.

Because the undead man is really teaching Maria and using his own combat experience to help Maria grow up.

Zofia can see this.

But Zofia didn't understand that the undead didn't lie to him, that was the nature of the spell.

The immortals were also a little helpless.

If Zofia is unwilling to believe and try, she will definitely not be able to use miracles.

And even if she is willing, it will take a long time to practice if she wants to use it.

Except for those believers who have seen ancient gods perform miracles with their own eyes, no one can reproduce it in a short time.

nobody!

"It's true!"

Little Kuranta cheered excitedly, as if he had found something interesting.

Maria's cheers pulled their original gaze away from each other and towards Maria.

"What is true? You don't really believe it...?"

Zofia is preparing Maria to face reality. But just as she turned her head, she saw a light similar to the undead's hand glowing on Maria's empty left hand.

Miracle (Recovery)

Even the light was exactly the same as the one the undead had just used, the same soft white light with a hint of gold.

It's just that the light is still too weak, just like the difference between the moon and the stars.

But the light does exist, in Maria's left hand. And her original portable staff was now firmly held in Maria's right hand.
