Close Combat Mage

"Ringing rice?" Soga couldn't help wondering when she heard the name. From the adventurer's mouth, Soga had never heard of this special product and didn't know where to buy it.

Suspiciously, Soga tentatively said to the old man: "This ... It's no problem to help you make rice, but where does the rice you say come from?"

Looking at Soga in puzzlement, the old man said in confusion: "It's strange that you asked this, you are a businessman, and of course you should know where it was made. We only get some from travellers once and only once. It's just not sure where it was made. "

He shook his head with a bitter smile, Soga knew that these hunters would not leave the village for almost their entire life. It is impossible to know where the ring rice was produced. After all ... if not even the hundreds of adventurers knew something How could a hunter trapped in a mountain village know?

Between thoughts, Soga nodded categorically and said, "Well, although I don't know where to buy ring rice, it doesn't matter. I will try hard to inquire. I just hope you can hunt more gold raccoons, don't Let me do it for nothing. "

After hearing Soga's words, the old man looked serious and said earnestly: "You can rest assured, the people take food as the sky, and our orion, the most important thing is food. As long as you bring food, our orion is the most rare. It's the stuff of Warcraft. "

Nodded slightly, Soga was about to leave, and suddenly remembered something, and groaned, Soga said uncertainly: "By the way, old man, I heard that there is a fruit of magic here, it seems to be tough fruit, I don't know ... is there in your village? "

"Tough fruit?" Looked at Soga in doubt, the old man said in wonder: "Are you going to eat tough fruit?"

"Ennen ..." Nodded for sure, Soga grinned: "You know, this fruit can enhance human defenses, so ..."

After waiting for Soga to finish speaking, the old man laughed and laughed, "Tough fruit, we each have seeds, look ... isn't that the one around you?"

"Eh?" Looked confusedly along the old man's hand. Next to the tent, a row of low green bushes were neatly arranged. Under the surrounding of the bushes, a delicate but chic little tree was Upwind stood there. Looking far into the distance, there are at least hundreds of such small trees within the range of sight.

These small trees are about one meter high, pale blue, with delicate branches and very beautiful shapes. At the very top of each tree, there is a pale blue fruit. If you don't look closely, you can't find it.

Looking at Soga's horrified expression, the old man laughed and said, "This thing has been planted in our village for hundreds of years. Whether it is an adult or a child, we have to snack on him. If you want to eat it, please pick it yourself. , But note that only the blue fruit is ripe! "

"This ..." Soga looked at the old man in excitement, and Soga eagerly said, "Mr. Old, don't know these fruits, how much is it? If ..."

"Cut ..." Without waiting for Soga to finish speaking, the old man waved his hands in disdain, saying generously: "Do n’t you always be money or money, although you are a businessman, but also a friend of our Qili Village, some must Fruit, how can we collect money, you can eat it casually, but you have to pay attention, you can only eat one a week, otherwise there will be problems. "

Hearing the words of the old man, Soga didn't rush to pick the fruit, his eyes turned slightly, and he whispered to the old man; "Thank you so much, but ... I don't know how many tough fruits you have here." ? "

Hearing Soga's words, the old man took a serious look, and looked carefully around. After confirming that there was no one, he whispered to Soga: "The reason why our village is built here is because it is a tough fruit. In the gathering place, the village is full of fruits of grades one, two, and three, but in the jungle around our village, there are tough fruits of four or more ranks! "

Nodded in excitement, Soga eagerly said, "Sir, I don't know, can you help me point out the specific positions of those tough fruits above the fourth order?"

"Hey ..." smiled proudly, the old man nodded: "No problem, as long as you get us a ring of rice, I will help you point it out, and ... the more rice you get for us, I give The higher the rank of your tenacious fruit! If you can get enough rice paddy that our whole village can eat for a year, I will give you the only ten-level tenacious fruit in our village holy place! "

Nodded categorically, Soga couldn't wait to say: "Old sir, let's just say that, but don't regret it, you have to keep this fruit for me, at most half a year, I will definitely get you a year Ringing rice valley! "

"Ah!" The old man opened his mouth in horror when he heard Soga's words, "Is it true or false? I was just kidding you just now. Although the fruit is precious, it's not worth it ... ... "

"Yes!" Without waiting for the old man to finish his words, Soga suddenly raised his hand and interrupted the old man's words: "Mr. Old, it's not my business, you just look at that holy fruit, I will definitely get Ringing rice paddies! "

Having said that, Soga's eyes turned and she looked forward to saying, "Yes, Mr. Old, besides the tough fruits in your village, I wonder if there are any other magic fruits?"

With a bitter smile, he shook his head, and the old man said helplessly: "You are asking a strange question, don't you know? The fruit of magic is impossible to be mixed, and there can be only one kind of magic fruit in every area!"

Nodded with certainty, Soga didn't continue to ask, and ran directly to the nearby tree, and plucked two blue tough fruits. When he was about to put in the mouth, the old man suddenly called him. .

Looking at Soga nervously, the old man shouted, "Hey, hey! What do you want to do? Didn't you say? You can only eat one at a time. If you eat two, it will be a problem. If you do n’t die, you will be a waste. what!"

"Hey ..." Soga smiled mysteriously, Soga nodded. "I know I can only eat one. The reason why I pick two is because I have a partner, and he wants one too."

Speaking, Suga waved slightly, and suddenly ... there was a wave of space, and the diamond-white figure of Diamond Dragon slowly appeared in mid-air. The next moment ... the diamond dragon shouted excitedly and hurled into Suga's arms. Here, the intimate grinds.

Pick up a tough fruit and hand it to Diamond Dragon's mouth, Soga said affectionately: "Come here ... this is delicious, hurry up and eat one."

Hearing Soga's words, the Diamond Dragon opened his mouth obediently. At the same time, Soga handed the tough grape-sized fruit in his hand to the Diamond Dragon's mouth.

"Wait a minute!" Seeing the Diamond Dragon was about to eat in his mouth, the next moment ... the old man said again: "I want to confirm the following, have you ever eaten tough fruits before? If it is the first time, You must eat the tough fruits of the first order. If you eat more orders, you will definitely not be able to bear the impact of energy. Although it will not die or die, it will definitely be greatly hurt! "

Hearing the words of the old man, Suojia's hand suddenly slumped, and the tenacious fruit in his hand fell to the ground. Looking at the old man in shock, Suojia said in shock: "What? Didn't I take the first-order tenacious fruit?"

"En ..." He nodded slightly, the old man affirmed, "What you just took is a third-order tenacious fruit. If you haven't eaten it before, you have to lose half your life!"

"This ..." Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Soga said in fear: "God, it's really dangerous. These fruits look the same. Who knows if it is first-order or second-order, you are How are they distinguished? "

Shaking his head, the old man smiled and said, "It seems that you really don't know much about our world, let alone let me tell you. In fact, whether it is the fruit of magic or all kinds of energy, It can be measured by a stepless public magic whose name is-Eye of the Mind! "

The Eye of the Mind is a kind of stepless spiritual magic. Because it is practical magic, it has not been lost even after the catastrophe, especially on the great commercial road, it has become a necessary magic for everyone.

Although the Eye of the Mind is magic, in fact, it does not necessarily require a magician to perform it. People of all professions can use it. Using the Eye of the Mind, you can determine the strength of energy.

Of course, there is a limit to the eye of the mind. A low hand cannot see through the strength of the master with the eye of the mind. When the master looks at the low hand, he is unhappy. Although everyone knows the eye of the mind, but the limit of observation, But it has changed with the level of strength.

Under the patient's patient explanation, Soga soon understood the mystery of the soul's eye. Through a series of special mental methods and means, he could fully detect the biological energy equivalent to his own strength and weaker than himself.

According to the old man's method, Soga showed the eye of the mind for the first time. Suddenly ... a halo of the mind appeared around the old man's body, and at the same time, an energy bar appeared on the right side of the old man's body.

Seeing Soga successfully casting the eye of the soul, the old man smiled and said, "Now, should you see my energy bar? Under the observation of the eye of the soul, that energy bar has ten colors, from low To high, they are red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, and color. Corresponding to them are masters of all color levels. "

Having said that, the old man paused for a moment and then continued: "Of course ... this ranking is not absolute. Many people with a low defense color level have superpowers, but ... although the color level People who are not high-level may not be weak, but people with high color levels must be ruthless, so you must be careful in the future. Once you see people with high color levels, you must be careful, which means that they have With super strong physical strength, it is simply non-human! "

Looking at the old man in shock, Soga found that the energy bar next to the old man turned blue. No wonder the primitive residents of these great business roads could survive here. This powerful shield is enough to let the other party Energy is exhausted.

Between thoughts, Soga turned her head and looked at the tough fruit trees around her. This time, Soga quickly understood how to distinguish them. In the eyes of the soul, an energy bar appeared next to each fruit. It is three colors of red, orange, and yellow. According to the old man, there is no doubt that Soga should choose red tough fruits, which means that this is the first-order fruit.

Between thoughts, Soga looked up at her body, and in front of her, there was also an energy bar, but ... the energy bar was empty, without any color, which means that ... Soga's body was completely without protection. With a knife, you can scoop into Soga's body.

In fact, Soga knows that if you do n’t eat tough fruits, the strength of the human body is simply weak and terrible. Even a samurai ca n’t resist any attack. It can be said that the human body is naked. There is no strength at all, not even the beast. At least, the beast has tough leather.

Thinking about it, Soga looked at the Diamond Dragon. Like Soga, the energy bar of the Diamond Dragon is also empty, and there is no protection energy. Although the Diamond Dragon is famous for its defense, the current Diamond Dragon can only rely on it. Ten heavy ice armors came to defend, and once the ice armors were broken, the diamond dragon was about the same as a sheep.

Thinking about it, Soga threw the crimson ray of tough fruit into the mouth of Diamond Dragon, feeling the contents of the mouth, Diamond Dragon narrowed his eyes happily, and swallowed the whole tough fruit after a while of chewing.

Under Soga's observation, the energy bar next to the diamond dragon quickly filled with a red mist, and at the same time, a red line appeared at the bottom of the energy bar!

The old man looked at the Diamond Dragon with interest, and admired: "You are a small pet. It has a very fast absorption capacity. You have to pay attention. Only when this energy bar is full of red can you eat the next tough fruit. Otherwise something will go wrong. "

Nodded gratefully, Soga threw another tough fruit in his hand into his mouth, and a moment of sweet juice quickly slipped down Soga's throat, a very comfortable feeling, Rising from the bottom of my heart.

Looking sideways at himself, in the energy bar displayed by the Eye of the Soul, a raging red mist surged surgingly, its intensity was more exaggerated than the diamond dragon.

"Ah!" He exclaimed in exclamation, the old man admired, "God, you look thin and weak, but I didn't expect that your physical strength was so powerful!"

He shook his head with a sigh, and the old man continued: "Originally, I thought you should be a thief or a mage, but now I understand that you must be a samurai. No one except samurai can have such a long physical strength. This is simply Amazing."

"What? Wait a minute ..." After listening to the old man, Suga interrupted the other side suddenly, uncertainly: "What did you just say? You say I am a samurai? How is this possible ..."

"Hey ..." Patting Soga's shoulder, the old man smiled and said, "You don't have to pretend. In front of me, you can't pretend. You are as old as you and have such high physical strength, even if it is It is rare to see a samurai for more than a century. Can such a powerful physique be a mage? "

"This ..." After listening to the old man, Soga could not help but shut his mouth. He knew that the reason why he had such a strong physique was actually because he had taken a lot of physical medicine during magic pharmacy, but it was related to the flesh. The intensity is not relevant. In fact, his physical strength is not too high.

While thinking about it, the old man continued: "Although everyone can only eat one tough fruit a week, everyone's energy absorption rate for tough fruit is completely different. The stronger the person, the faster and more it can absorb. The higher you can reach. "

During the conversation, the old man thought for a moment, and then continued: "For you, as long as you eat almost four tough fruits, you can reach the level of red full, and your diamond dragon needs to eat six, you know ... you two are already talented people! "

"This ..." Soga hesitantly looked at the old man, and Soga asked uncertainly: "How many tough fruits do normal people normally need to eat to reach full red?"

After groaning, the old man frowned and said, "This is not necessarily the case. Generally speaking, if you eat ten to reach the red level, it is already a strong person. Some people need to eat hundreds to barely reach the red. The level of fullness, although it ’s all eaten one a week, but some people only eat a few to add a little energy, and you, one is enough to increase a quarter! ”

Looking at the old man in horror, Soga couldn't believe it, there would be such a good thing, especially when it was heard that someone had to eat more than one hundred to reach the red level, and it was even more amazing to add one. Doesn't that take more than two years to reach?

After thinking about it, Soga calculated about it. According to the process described by the old man, he only needs one month to reach the red level, and the diamond dragon only takes one and a half months. Is this a bit exaggerated? The difference is too big, you know ... he is an authentic ice mage, not a samurai.

Between thoughts, Soga looked up at the old man and said, "If that's the case, does it mean that every four tough fruits I eat, I can raise one energy level!"

Nodded flatly, the old man said happily: "In fact, the speed of ascension is directly related to the talent for absorption. No matter what energy level you are, you can reach the full state by eating only four fruits!"

Looking at the old man in shock, Soga said unbelievably: "So, wouldn't it take me only ten months to reach the dreamy color level! This is unlikely!"
