The Glory of Noxus

Night fell, and it was time for dinner.

Gregory and Huo Jixing continued to chat while going downstairs, and they did not stop even when eating. The two talked and laughed.

Seeing this, Amorin, who was holding the dinner plate, looked helpless and shook her head gently.

Since Huo Jixing arrived, Gregory seemed to have found a like-minded person. He often forgot the time and shared his outstanding insights with Huo Jixing day and night.

"Good evening, ma'am!" Huo Jixing greeted Amorin when he saw her.

Amorin nodded, a smile appeared on her cold face, and with the help of Gregory, she sat on a wooden chair with a blanket.

"What are you talking about? You look so happy."

"Some extraordinary anecdotes in the empire." Gregory replied with a smile, and tasted dinner with a knife and fork in an elegant manner.

Staring at the smile on Gregory's face, Amorin was a little absent-minded.

It seemed that after leaving the capital of Noxus and coming to the border of the North, Gregory rarely smiled like this.

The last time was when he was pregnant.

"What? What are you looking at?" Gregory waved at Amorin, asked in confusion, and then turned to look at Huo Jixing.

"Xing, is there something on my face?"

Huo Jixing, who was looking down and trying to avoid the sweet scene in front of him, had to raise his face and said, "It's very clean, there is no food residue."

"It's my problem, I'm a little absent-minded." Amorin blushed and spoke hurriedly.

Maybe the scene just now was a little awkward, she looked at Huo Jixing not far away and asked, "Xing, how are you studying recently?"

"Very good, Mr. Gregory's teaching has given me a deep understanding of the extraordinary system of the Valoran continent." Huo Jixing swallowed the cooked meat in his mouth and spoke sincerely.

This is not flattery!

It can educate the border areas of the Noxus Empire and let the power of Noxus be demonstrated.

Gregory's ability is absolutely beyond doubt.

"Amorin means that if you have any questions, you can ask her." Gregory looked at his wife and said with a smile.

"Don't underestimate Amorin. She is a wizard apprentice who has studied in the Imperial Academy for several years."

"Wizard apprentice?"

Huo Jixing looked surprised. He never expected that Amorin, who was pregnant, would be a supernatural person.

In the previous conversations, he only heard Amorin say that she came from a backward village in the Noxus Empire, Fensworth.

Then Huo Jixing recalled the recent days together. He seemed to have never seen Amorin use supernatural powers.

"Xing, your ability is biased towards fire magic?"

Amorin put down the silver cross in her hand, supported her white chin with both hands, and blinked her blue eyes.

"Yes, I woke up unexpectedly in a life-and-death fight." Huo Jixing nodded.

This is not a secret. He believes that Wilson has already mentioned his information in the letter, otherwise he would not have had the opportunity to learn this time.

"I've heard my teacher say that."

Amorin turned the knife and fork, and the face of an old woman suddenly appeared in his mind.

Thin cheeks, dense wrinkles, a fierce look, stubborn temper and love to turn against, once took me away from the painful place, but also deeply hurt me.

"You have to learn to deal with your power. It is not an enemy, nor a friend."

"It is yourself."

"You have to understand your own power in depth, especially the power awakened by your own efforts."

"That represents your talent, which will make you different from other ordinary extraordinary people."

"Of course, what I said is only the knowledge that has been taught in the academy."

Huo Jixing listened attentively. Unlike Gregory's teaching, Amorin's words have a certain degree of professionalism, but they are concise and easy to understand, and they directly point out the relationship between himself and extraordinary power.

Thinking carefully, after he awakened [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku], he seemed to have never deeply understood his own power, but simply used it.

Because in his consciousness, the power is his own, and he only needs to exert it to the best of his ability.

And Amorin's words directly cut through his inherent ideas.

Until the end of dinner.

Huo Jixing was still thinking about himself. He hurriedly said hello to Gregory and his wife and returned to his room.

"Strange and contradictory guy!"

Gregory looked at the back of Huo Jixing who was leaving and whispered softly.

"Is there anything wrong?" Amorin looked at her husband thoughtfully.

"No, nothing wrong. He was introduced by Wilson. I believe in Wilson's vision." Gregory shook his head and recalled his contact with Huo Jixing during this period. He has a good personality, but he has secrets in his heart.

It seems that he has just made a preliminary contact with the extraordinary world, but he has unique insights into some things, and even some rumors and records are clearer than what he knows.

A very contradictory existence.

He can't see clearly!

"Okay, don't think too much, let's clean up." Amorin stood up slowly with a bulging belly and cleaned up the table in front of him.

Everyone has their own secrets.

Huo Jixing has it, she has it, and Gregory has it too!

Huo Jixing returned to the room, half lying on the bed, leaning against the wall, thinking alone.

This is a habit from the previous life. When it is late at night and everyone is asleep, people's thoughts will be completely empty and extremely rational.

The words that Amolin said in the restaurant just now, like a spell, kept echoing in his mind.

"Understand your own power deeply!?" Huo Jixing murmured to himself: "Is it a mage-like meditation?"

The [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku] he awakened was the power given by the data panel.

Based on his trust in the data panel, he never thought about deeply understanding his own power in this regard.

Recalling the past time, since opening [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku], he seemed to have only studied the power of Suzaku's Shadow, Jingsu Star, and Nanli Fire, but had no in-depth understanding at all.

In fact, it's not Huo Jixing's fault.

He is like a weed that grows wildly and can only rely on self-exploration. There is a clear difference between him and the Gregorys.

Gregory's extraordinary knowledge was passed down through the school.

Amorin came from Imperial College.

Perhaps in the future Huo Jixing may also enter a certain academy in the Noxus Empire, but now he can only learn the corresponding extraordinary knowledge from Gregory.

Close your eyes and concentrate.

Huo Jixing saw the unfolded data panel in his pupils, and then he tapped the talent consciously.

A red star map appeared in his consciousness, and blazing flames ignited out of thin air, illuminating the shadow of the Suzaku overlooking the world.

"Where is my body?"

Huo Jixing, who was standing in the starry sky, lowered his head and looked at his body.

I saw the red-gold Nanli Fire flowing along the meridians of the human body, faintly corresponding to the Suzaku in the sky.

Huo Jixing stretched out his hand and held it in vain, as if a red star appeared in the palm of his hand.

"Jingsu, the fire of Qinanli must be weighed by Suzaku!"

As the words fell, the Nanli fire in the body exploded, as if burning the body and burning away the flesh and blood.

"Meditation and body observation are what they are!"

Huo Jixing looked up at the silhouette of the Suzaku with its wings spread, and could clearly feel the intimacy coming from the fire of Nanli.

The seemingly terrifying flames clung to the surface of his skin under the control of his consciousness.

"Unfortunately, this is just the consciousness space within the data panel!"

He had a headache thinking about the terrifying blood energy required when the Fire of Nanli was ignited. He still needed a strong enough body to use the Fire of Nanli unscrupulously.

However, this unexpected harvest already made him very satisfied.

Compared with the rough use of Nanli Fire before, he can now reduce the consumption of energy and blood to a certain extent.

"Um?"

Huo Jixing, who was about to exit the data panel, seemed to have discovered something and looked carefully at the dark green data flow flowing line by line.

[Name: Huo Jixing]

【Quality: 5】

【Power: 2.17】

[Physique: 2.25]

[Agility: 2.37]

【Spirit: 3.50】

[Skills: Advanced warrior, survival in the wild, inner vision, photographic memory]

[Talent: Suzaku]

"Having done inner meditation, you have a photographic memory?" Huo Jixing looked at the two extra entries in the skill with a stunned expression.

No, what is going on?

Why are there two more obviously extraordinary entries?

"It's really a huge debt of gratitude." Huo Jixing rubbed his face and said helplessly to himself.

He looked at the entry [Inside View of the Body], which should be the special state he entered when observing the shadow of Suzaku in the starry sky on the data panel.

This time in reality, he closed his eyes again.

You can feel the scorching Nanli fire flowing through the blood meridians very clearly, as if it is completely integrated with yourself, and there is a feeling of blood connection, like arms and fingers.

At the same time, it also confirmed his idea, and the flesh and blood fuel required to drive the Nanli Fire was reduced again.

The meaning of "photographic memory" is even simpler.

It means that you will never forget what you have read, and your memory is very strong.

Huo Jixing's eyes fell on the mental attribute with a value of 3.5, and he secretly speculated.

This may be a belated entry after spiritual transformation.

In a daze, he felt an inexplicable familiarity with Gregory and Amorin, as if he had seen them before, but he just couldn't remember them, and he felt extremely irritable.

"Damn familiarity!"

Huo Jixing thought carefully for a while, and found that he really couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to give up and suppress his depression.

According to the opinions of book friends, tanks did have some problems in the previous skill division, so they were changed to shield guards, as follows:

Apprentice Shield Guard, Junior Shield Guard, Intermediate Shield Guard, Advanced Shield Guard, Fearless Shield, and Shield Master.

Thanks to Strange Aqua and Wan Ruoyimeng for the suggestion!
