My Magic Age

Qi Ge sat next to me, playing with my silver-plated shotgun with both hands, and making noises of admiration from time to time.

After holding the shotgun firmly, she carefully poured her magic power into the shotgun, but she did not activate the magic pattern array of the shotgun. She held it up for a long time without shooting out a copper pea. He wrinkled his little nose slightly, glanced at me and asked, "How do you use this gun? I think you use it quite simply. Why can't it work after I instilled magic power into it?"

I sat aside and asked Qige to try again. I felt a clear magical power in her body pouring into the shotgun and no longer controlled it. The magic power dissipated in the shotgun on its own. The magic power did not enter the stimulating device. The magic pattern array in the shotgun made the shotgun completely unresponsive. Then he said: "Your guided magic power can activate the magic pattern array in the excitation device, otherwise it will not work."

Knowing where the problem lies is naturally very easy to solve. She tried again according to what I said and it succeeded. She was very interested for a moment and shot out more than a dozen copper peas one after another. Then she said to me very openly: "Hey, Jia, the attribute of this gun is the hit bonus." Eight, even if you shoot blindly with your eyes closed, you won’t miss it! I wonder why you only killed one... wolf in that battle?"

She deliberately dragged out the last word, teasing me about my marksmanship.

I was speechless about this. I could only blame my bad luck. I didn't hold the shotgun firmly for the second shot. The powerful recoil of the shotgun made my shoulders still sore, which directly affected my subsequent performance. This is my strong argument. Although it is a bit far-fetched to explain, it is a reason after all. Qige continued with a smile: "But this idea is not bad! A magician who likes to use a shotgun sounds funny."

"Now it seems that the firearm suits me very well, and it has effects that you can never expect."

I smiled a little proudly talking about this silver-plated shotgun.

"Effect? ​​Isn't it just the burning effect of the Flame Tongue weapon? You've told me about it! But you didn't seem to use it just now. Did you forget about it when you were nervous?" Qige said when I first thought about it! The original intention of buying a crossbow weapon was actually to better utilize the damage-boosting effect of the "Fire Tongue Weapon".

When I learned this magic, the first thing I was thinking about was: if the magic effect of this 'flame tongue weapon' is added to the sword, and let me fight hand-to-hand with the sword, who can I defeat with my small body? Even if I were short in stature and had short arms, I would have no chance of winning in a hand-to-hand fight with a wolf without the wolf fang dagger. So I thought I might as well just use a ranged weapon!

I shook my head and said, "If that's the case, I won't mention it. There is another unexpected effect, that is, when my magic power is poured into the magic pattern array of the excitation device, and when the array generates a strong momentum, A trace of my residual magic power will adhere to the copper peas and forcefully send my magic perception out. This is equivalent to my magic power. My perception extends outward for more than a hundred meters. When I killed a wolf just now, I had a wonderful feeling. I could clearly feel the bullet entering the skull of the wolf, although the range was not very large. , but that feeling is amazing, like opening a third eye, isn’t it amazing to say this?”

I told Qige about this because I thought she might know what was going on. She is now at least a third-year student at the Junior Magic Academy, although she is only a seventh-level magician who can only cast one magic skill. You are a teacher and apprentice, but the theoretical knowledge should be very solid, academic!

After listening to my description, Qige covered her mouth and looked at me with wide eyes like a monster, and asked me stupidly: "Can you feel the magic power exerted a hundred meters away?"

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" I asked with some guilt.

"It's more than wrong! Jia, do you know that even a water magician like Guo Guo can't sense the magic power a hundred meters away. There are only orc shamans known as 'soul walkers' who practice soul magic and Only holy priests who practice spiritual power will pay more attention to Regarding the cultivation of mental power, I estimate that your magic perception is stronger than imagined, which has a lot to do with your mental power. Your mental power must also be very strong. Unfortunately, I don’t have a mental power detection crystal here. I don’t know how strong your mental power is. Powerful. But I believe if the temple The monks here know that you have such strong spiritual power, so they have to force you to become a priest!" Qige said very exaggeratedly, and her words reminded me of those pale-faced priests who hide themselves under their cloaks all day long. There are also those tall halls full of sacred atmosphere I heard that there is a kind of powerful ascetic monks in the temple. They like to kneel in front of the statues of gods all day long. They will slap themselves with thorns covered with poisonous thorns while reciting the Bible. I am very afraid of this kind of behavior. This feeling of fear was greater than my reverie about those female priests in the temple.

"I don't want to be a priest, let's talk about something else!" I said. It turns out that the reason for such strong feelings is that I have strong perception. But when I thought that if someone knew that I had strong mental power at such a young age, I might be absorbed into the temple and become a priest, I felt a chill in my body. I felt uncomfortable even thinking about this topic.

Catalina on the side was like a child who had made a mistake, huddled in a corner, looking pitiful as if she had been wronged. I think when she met the wolves, she might have been frightened, so she asked a girl who was not yet twenty years old to go into the vast wilderness alone, eat and sleep with us, and usually take care of us with all her heart. I think this is very rare. Maybe I should pay more attention to her. After all, Miss Qige is a magician apprentice. She may be more adaptable to fighting, more confident in protecting herself, and more able to face the upcoming crisis calmly. danger. But Katarina couldn't do it. Her sexy beauty couldn't help her in the wilderness. Maybe she wasn't used to it.

I patted her hand comfortingly, but Catalina was like a frightened little rabbit, startled by my actions. I said to her seriously: "Katrina, don't be afraid, I will protect you. This is the territory of the orcs. This is not Sloit City or Greene Royal Academy of Magic. There are no so-called nobles here." , there are only hunters and prey here, only wilderness and Gobi, so you don’t have to worry about those guys at all.”

"Just leave those guys to us!" I vowed to Katarina.

Catalina's red eyes were two blood-coagulated gems in the dark night. She tilted her mouth aggrievedly as if she had something to say, but in the end she couldn't say it out. She just shook her head sadly, her eyes filled with sadness. I was afraid that she would always be like this and it would leave depression in her heart, so I was deliberately surprised and said: "Hey, did I say something wrong? No way! So, you and those wolves are in the same group? Are you sad for them? ”

Maybe Catalina couldn't understand my joke, maybe my joke was too cold, she looked at me in astonishment. I didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Qige next to me hit me hard on the shoulder and smiled angrily at me: "You are in the same group as the gray wolf. You are such a small child and you know how to push such a big beauty to you." Come here, are you always thanking me in your dreams? You don't look like a seven-year-old child!"

I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "A kid like me is making a living in a caravan. If I hadn't learned something earlier, how could I have crossed the New Siakis Mountains that stretch for four to five thousand miles? Maybe it's because of the difficult living environment in the orc tribe. , to make those orc children sensible earlier, so why not me?”

Qige was a little stunned by my explanation, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should say something to comfort me.

Originally, I tried to make Katarina relieve her tension by joking, but Katarina couldn't understand it. Instead, Qige thought that I was trying to pick up girls, which was really unreasonable. But I actually want to understand what Catalina is afraid of and why she feels fear in her heart. Everyone is afraid of facing beasts, but I was so scared that I didn’t dare to fight back. This was the first time I saw Qige asking with a half-smile: "Are you curious, why is Katarina so timid?"

I nodded, and then I thought that it was not good to express my attitude like this. It would definitely make Catalina's heart even heavier, so I simply shook my head again to show that I didn't care. Qige sat next to Catalina, hugged her shoulders and said to me: "Actually, I wanted to tell you earlier. The reason why Qige is so timid in the face of battle is because her murderous heart has been sealed. . This trip to the wilderness, I brought her out because I wanted her to regain her courage and courage. She can't become so timid just because her natural bloodline, 'Heart of Killing,' has been sealed."

Qige unbuttoned the hidden buttons of Catalina's upper body leather armor, and a large area of ​​snow-white skin was revealed in the night. Blue magic light flowed between her fingers, brushing against her snow-white chest, an ancient picture The eight-door golden lock formation-style magic pattern array was revealed in front of my eyes. This exquisite magic pattern Even every line of the array is an exquisite chain outlined with magic ink. In the palm-sized circle in the center of the entire array, there is an ancient orc language smeared with animal blood that represents the word "sealing". The ancient characters shone with this dim light, and I could feel the powerful magic on them. I seem to have seen such advanced magic patterns in old Kulu's magic books. At that time, I just admired and appreciated it with an eye-opening attitude. I didn't expect to see a real advanced sealing pattern on Katrina so soon. inscription.

"The heart to kill?" I didn't understand what the heart to kill was, so I repeated it. I thought to myself that I usually see Catalina wearing a halter top and shorts, but I never noticed that she has such a magic pattern array on her chest. What kind of method did Qige use to reveal this array? of?

Kurtz, who was sitting on Aguimon's neck, also heard our conversation, his eyes became very bright, and he looked deeply at Katarina's charming figure, his eyes full of envy. Seeing that I couldn't understand what Qige said, he explained to me: "In our orc tribe, the true warrior bloodline inheritance, there are several very powerful bloodline talents. Orc children who are burdened with these talents will receive special treatment from an early age. training as they are most likely to become second job transfers Among these talents, 'Bloodthirst' ranks first, and 'Blood of Life', 'Heart of Killing', 'Survival Instinct' and 'Wild Growth' are known as the five legendary talents of the Orcs. The Orcs have to defend the honor of the Orcs throughout their lives, so these bloodlines. Talent is the foundation for the Orcs to settle down and live. The owners of these five powerful bloodlines can only belong to the Orcs themselves. The divination priests in the tribe will hold a divination ceremony every year to detect whether there is a new bloodline successor. If it is a child in the tribe, will be elected into the Presbytery, by The shaman training in the Council of Elders, if it is a half-orc with orc blood living abroad, there will be a full-time shaman to search for him all over the world, or he will be brought back to the orc tribe to train him into a powerful orc warrior, or he will be This bloodline talent seal makes him an ordinary person."

I asked with some surprise: "The heart of killing is a very strong blood talent?"

Kurtz said with certainty: "Very strong! If an orc warrior with a 'heart to kill' can successfully break through the level 20 bottleneck, he will become a 'war madman' after his second job transfer, which is what you call an orc mad warrior. , at this time, the bloodline talent of Killing Heart will become particularly powerful. Not only will the body's endurance and resistance become extremely strong, but it will also become immune to some negative magic states, and it will no longer be affected by low-level negative effects such as fear, aging, deceleration, and coma. The influence of magic. This kind of berserker is really powerful, so such a powerful bloodline talent is not allowed to spread out of the orc tribe, so any form of bloodline talent that spreads will be banned, and the orc tribe elders are responsible for divination of fate. Priests, they have to divine every year whether a new bloodline talent will be born in that year. I think Catalina must have been sealed by the priests’ bloodline talent ‘Heart of Killing’.”

"Does this seal also seal courage and courage?" I asked Kurtz.

Kurtz couldn't say with certainty: "Maybe it's because the rabbit orcs are timid and cowardly in nature that they behave like this!"

"The desire of each of us orcs for these five powerful bloodlines is no less than the desire of magicians for the innate magical talents. But the orcs do not know how to plunder blood, and such powerful blood talents can only rely on blood inheritance. . Half-orcs like Katarina, who have the bloodline of 'Killing Heart' in their blood, are extremely popular in any orc tribe." At this point, he looked a little unnatural and stopped talking. .

Qige's eyes showed a look of resentment and said: "Tsk! Bloodline inheritance?"

Qi Ge sneered disdainfully. I have never seen such deep resentment in Qi Ge’s eyes. She usually behaves either beautiful and cold, or quiet and indifferent, but now her big talking eyes are full of anger. , said to Kurtz: "In order to give future generations the opportunity to have a strong blood inheritance, you beasts Some strong men in the human tribe do not plunder in the same way. The difference is that the bloodline plundering rituals performed by those self-degenerated magicians will completely deprive the owner of his life, while you orcs will completely plunder these half-orcs who have the powerful bloodline talents of the orcs. Being reduced to a tool for reproducing offspring, what’s the difference between that and death?”

Kuz was choked and speechless by Qige's words.

"But having said that, Jia, have you ever thought about why the orc shaman Kulu, who has half a foot in the orc elders' council, takes a young orc werewolf to travel around the world, even if there are powerful enemies looking around? Under such circumstances, you dare to let him lead you into this wasteland where monsters are rampant? Have you ever thought about what kind of person can have an orc shaman elder to teach you personally? "Qige finally proposed this, which made me very happy. Confusing question.
