Chapter 316: Dual Sequence Heshia

Chapter 316 Dual Sequence Heshia

"Come, come, it's time for dinner."

Crouching on the grass, Heshia rang the bell and looked at the five little birds that had just walked out of the incubator. The five little guys had fluffy gray fur on their bodies, and their steps were crooked and twisted. Occasionally they fell on the grass, then got up, followed the girl's call, came to her, and chirped.

Spreading out her palm, Heshia revealed the crystal-clear light yellow "rice grains" in it. These were mixed bird food made with current technology, which contained all kinds of nutrients needed by the little birds, and were very comprehensive.

The five little guys pecked at the girl's palm, competing for the delicious food, and from time to time they flapped their little wings and made noises.

The bird's beak was not sharp, and pecking at the palm of her hand made Heshia feel a little itchy, but she still held back and used her other hand to stroke the five little guys from time to time to let them get familiar with her.

"Meow~" Not far away, a big orange cat jumped down from the tree and came to a few meters away from Heshia, looking at the five guys curiously.

Facing this sudden visit of the big cat, the indigo snake showed its body, coiled its head, blocked the orange cat, looked at it vigilantly, and sent out a warning signal.

"Meow~"

Facing this suddenly appearing shining scale snake, the orange cat jumped, dodged and climbed up the tree again, carefully overlooking the scene below.

As animals active in the Iridium Academy, most of them are not ordinary creatures. This orange cat also has the strength of Sequence 2. Usually, he lives a very leisurely and comfortable life, and is not as fierce as a wild cat.

Realizing that the snake below is obviously higher than its Sequence 4 existence, the orange cat became much more fearful and nervous. After staring at it for a while, it pretended to walk away casually.

Heshia noticed this little episode next to her, but she did not look back. Instead, she stroked the five little guys with her fingertips and carefully felt their health conditions.

They are all pretty good. The five little guys have no congenital defects.

After checking, Heshia saw that they had almost finished eating, so she picked up the five little ones and put them back into the transparent incubator.

It was still winter in the North District, so it was okay to let them out occasionally to exercise, but if they stayed for a long time, they would freeze.

Carrying the incubator, I walked towards the back mountain of the academy. There were fallen leaves everywhere. The light yellow, gardenia yellow, and goose yellow leaves were stacked on the grass and the path, which was very beautiful. Occasionally, some stones and treetops were covered with unmelted snowflakes, which gave people a refreshing feeling.

As the North District is surrounded by mountains, it is not too cold even in winter, and there are rarely scenes of snowflakes accumulating without melting.

Walking on the path, Heshia occasionally saw students running. Of course, they were not alone, but often with their companions. You can see big dogs with long orange hair, sturdy and heavy gray rhinos, white and smooth jumping sheep, and occasionally crocodiles and big scorpions and other strange creatures.

"Huff, huff--"

When Heshia was admiring the early morning scenery in the mountains in the distance, a sound made her turn around, and then she felt the occasional slapping on her calves.

A large dog with light yellow and dark apricot fur circled around her steps, and its flapping tail occasionally touched Heshia's legs, which was also the source of the previous slapping.

"Come back, sausage, shame on you~" A girl slightly older than Heshia stood not far away and called the dog, hoping that the guy would come back soon.

However, this dog seemed to not care about the call of its owner, and still circled around the girl enthusiastically, sniffing from time to time.

The girl opposite had to come over. She had long dark chestnut hair, a brown coat, and long legs wrapped in black long cotton socks.

"Sorry, I'm bothering you, I'll take it away now." She first bent over to apologize, then grabbed the big dog's ears and dragged it out.

Because the ears were pulled painfully, the big dog had to retreat, and it even let out one or two barks.

"You are still not obedient, right? No sausage for you today." The girl patted the big dog's face with her hand. After hearing the threat, the big dog whined and seemed to beg for mercy. Then the person and the dog went away.

Seeing this scene, Heshia felt funny and continued to move forward with the incubator.

When they came to the deeper part of the forest, the air was much cooler, and there was more snow on the roadside. There were no more people on the roadside.

Finally, Heshia stopped at a cliff. She looked behind and around, then jumped down with the incubator. Her body flew across the wide valley like a light feather and came to the opposite hill. Then she moved forward again, up the hillside, and finally came to the top of the hill. Here you can see the orange sun in the distance, which is very beautiful.

Putting down the incubator with five little guys, Heshia took out a flute, sat on a clean stone, took a breath, and then played slowly.

There are many similarities between musical instruments or music. After learning the violin, Heshia also learned the cello, guitar, piano, and now the flute.

The flute made of green bamboo has tassels at the end, which flutter slightly in the morning breeze as Heshia blows. When she plays, light white hexagonal snowflakes spread on the rocks below.

At first, it was a little white star, and then slowly spread. The extended snowflake crystals covered each other and formed fluffy snowflakes.

At first, it was just around her, then the hill, and then spread to the hillside. The mountain forest that was originally covered with leaves was gradually covered with white snow, all the way to the foot of the mountain.

Finally, when Heshia finished playing and opened her eyes, she was still in front of the world covered with ice and snow, very quiet, with only a few birds flying around, landing on the branches, and curiously looking at the scene below.

In response, Heshia put down her flute and waved her arms. Snowflakes melted wherever she looked. In less than a few seconds, the entire valley returned to its original state, with leaves of various colors covering the ground, and occasionally some green grass leaves growing out of the cracks in the rocks.

After putting down the flute, Heshia held her hand in a hollow position, and a silver snow-white rapier fell into her palm. Although she held it, she slowly waved it.

She danced with the sword slowly, but her posture and movements were better than Gu Yongrong's in those days. Her light gray hair fluttered in the wind with the sword blade, and her swallow-blue hairband and necklace swayed with her hair, and the flower skirt with blue sleeves on the snow-bottomed bottom also moved with the sword.

Although there was no sound when dancing with the sword, her posture seemed to blend into the surrounding background. There was no fluctuation of magic power. Only the artistic conception and the coordination and synchronization of the environment made her movements flow like dancing. She was on the ground but it was like dancing in the water. Her light and slow posture gave the illusion that she would fly at any time.

As the tip of her foot stepped on the ground, little green buds sprouted in the melting snow, stretched out green leaves, and then the drooping snow-white buds slowly took shape, and finally slowly lifted up and stretched out, and the slender and five-pointed petals bloomed, swaying slightly in the wind.

In this way, when Heshia finished dancing with the sword, the entire upper half of the hill was almost full of these white irises, and she was still closing her eyes and immersed in the flow of magic power in her body and the strange state during the sword dance.

After a long time, she slowly opened her eyes and examined the job of the extraordinary core construction in her body.

Job: Nature Sequence 5 · White Kite Folding Snow (Legendary Condensation Level) / Withering Sequence 5 · Phantom Blue Skirt (Legendary Condensation Level, dormant)

Status: Healthy

Talent:

Crystal of Healing [Mythic Level]: All things gather, crystallize, and purify in your hands, and the scars of chaos and tearing are restored to their original state. (Gathering, freezing, crystallization, purification, healing, and related field abilities receive the highest bonus)

Annihilation Quicksand [Mythic] (Incomplete): Everything in your eyes is annihilated, dissipated, and shattered, tearing perfection apart, shattering eternity, and everything has an end. (Annihilation, curse, particles, chaos, and destruction related fields receive the highest bonus)

Sound of Time Strings [Mythic]: Feel the rhythm of everything and pluck the strings of time. (Unknown, currently the fragments and traces in time can be used to restore the past scenes, and even partially reverse time for a short period of time)

Sound of Empty Playing [Mythic] (Incomplete): Feel the melody of the world and play the strings of time and space. (Unknown, currently can shuttle through space, tear barriers, sense space gaps, and even build miniature subspaces to store items)

Abilities:

[White Kite Dance] (Perfect): Inheriting the ancient sacrificial phoenix dance, after being improved in your hands, it is more adapted to the current era and can greatly improve the coordination between yourself and the environment. Complex forests will not stop you, strong winds cannot block your sight, and messy raindrops cannot interfere with your listening. You are like a drop of water merging into the sea, rising and falling with the waves without being disturbed by them.

[Sword of Snow Breaking] (Legend): Your swordsmanship has reached perfection, even out of skill, reaching a state that is almost miraculous. This is not just the result of your personal practice, but the realm deduced after inheriting the memory of the generations passed down in the divine sword. It is like breaking ice into a sword in the snow. The sword and the snow color are integrated, without traces, making it difficult for people to perceive. Perhaps only after the sword light, a trace of coldness will seep out of the body.

[Bai Li Qing Di] (Perfect/Legend): The instrument is just a carrier, the sound of the flute is the embodiment of your inner voice, the excellent singing talent is reflected through the sound of the flute, showing a pure and quiet temperament, making the world pure and the creatures peaceful. It has the ability to purify the environment, dispel the effects of messy magic and other abilities, and at the same time make people unconsciously calm down and get out of the state of mania and chaos. (The strength is determined according to the performance of the singing talent)

Skills:

[Qingluan Orthodox Sword Art Lv.6] (Legend): The sword art of Qinglian Xijian Palace in the Zhuo Mo Sword contains twelve secret arts and fifty-four types of skills.

[Elf Secret Art Lv.5] (Perfect): The elf secret art taught by Edes Academy, including high-level skills such as "Vortex Net Arrow", "Seven Butterflies Incarnation", "Bundle Wood into Swords", and "Spring Breeze Ballad".

[Wind Kite Bond Lv.5] (Rare): The bond resonance synergy technique taught by the Iridium Academy, which resonates with other extraordinary creatures, cultivates and assists in battle, including skills such as "Strengthening the Core", "Magic Transmission", "Wind Protection", and "Consciousness Connection".

[Singer Inheritance Lv.5] (Legend): Singer-related skills taught by the Ice Elf Ghost Princess, including skills such as "Eye of the Soul", "Synesthesia Extension", "Resonance Melody", "Existence Hidden", "Magic Dyeing", and "Voice of the Heart".

————

Many of the above skills are still being studied and trained by Heshia. For example, if the "Blue Luan Sword Art" completely practices the twelve secret arts and fifty-four types of moves, it will probably be evaluated as [Blue Luan Sword Art Lv.9] (Legend), but this process will be relatively long, because many things in it are too broad, and now Heshia has only mastered the simpler parts.

The same is true for the Songstress inheritance. If you want to reach the realm of [Songstress inheritance Lv.9] (Legend), you not only need to become a color-level Songstress, but also have at least the strength of sequence 8.

For extraordinary life, its strength is mainly divided into three parts: "talent", "ability" and "skill". Among them, "talent" is innate and cannot be changed, "ability" is the result of the combined effect of talent and extraordinary job, and "skill" can be taught to each other. As long as the conditions are met, you can learn and cultivate it.

As for why Heshia can practice two sequences at the same time, this is also an ability she has only recently discovered. It is probably related to the mythical talent. In other words, she can replace her extraordinary core in time and space in an instant.

The extraordinary core of a normal person, especially after reaching a high level, is integrated with the soul and cannot be changed at will. However, because of her own talent, she can easily break and break free from the shackles of the extraordinary core, and can rely on her talent to condense again, which makes her not bound by a single sequence. Moreover, because of the protection of the time and space talent, she can even superimpose space and practice two unrelated sequences at the same time.

However, the application of this talent also requires energy consumption. Perhaps because she absorbed Themisia and made the twins merge into one, she did not find it difficult to learn two sequences at the same time. However, if she added one more, it would increase the energy consumption sharply, which was far worse than when she had two sequences.

After practicing the sword dance, Heshia stood in front of the valley and closed her eyes. Soon after, the hair on her forehead turned black, and her eyes turned into a dark blue color, like a phantom, which was particularly moving.

Withering Sequence 5: Phantom Blue Skirt (Legendary Condensed Pearl Level)

Compared with before, her talent remained unchanged, but her ability changed. The previous [White Kite Dance] [Sword of Snow] [Hundred Miles Clear Flute] were replaced by [Phantom Dance] [Frost Flame] [Piano of the Empty Valley].

[Phantom Dance] (Perfect): The dance steps inherited from the lineage of the singing girl, the moving dance steps not only give you the posture that attracts all eyes, but also, combined with the secret technique of the Withering Sequence, it is the prelude to a special ceremony. A certain emperor of the empire once died in the "Death Dance" of that generation of singing girls. It allows you to freely transform your body into a virtual form, shuttle through obstacles, like a ghost, unable to be blocked and resisted, bringing fear to the enemy.

[Frost Flame] (Legend): The blue or even transparent flame does not bring heat, but freezes and crystallizes in a counterintuitive way, freezing the earth and the world. This is the embodiment of your innate ability.

[Hydrangea of ​​the Empty Valley] (Perfect/Legend): The instrument is just a carrier, and the sound of the harp is the embodiment of your voice. The excellent singing talent is reflected through the sound of the harp, showing a quiet and sad temperament, allowing everything to escape from the restlessness of the world and look up at the ethereal starry night. It has the effect of influencing other people's minds and being stained by your emotions, making people fall in love with the sound of the harp unconsciously, and follow your melody and emotional ups and downs. (The strength is determined by the performance of the singing talent)

There are two job categories, among which the Nature Sequence 5 · White Kite Folding Snow is biased towards the performance of swordsmanship, while the Withering Sequence 5 · Phantom Blue Skirt is biased towards the use of spell abilities.

The four mythical talents combined are actually two sides of the same coin, namely crystal, time and space, plus the talent of a singing girl hidden in it.

Although Heshia seems to have learned a lot of skills and techniques, it is not too exaggerated if compared with the top students in Edes Academy.

To be specific, a normal sophomore will learn 1-2 extraordinary skills, students from excellent regional academies will learn 3-4, and top-ranked schools like Yuanting will learn 5-7. In top academies like Edes, students generally master 8-10 skills. Heshia has mastered about 20 skills by relying on the inheritance of the sword and the immersive memory of the ice elf princess. This is also the limit, because if she continues to instill it, she will not even have the energy to familiarize herself with it. What

Heshia lacks at present is not knowledge, but the precipitation of time, so that she can slowly master and familiarize herself with this knowledge and practice these skills and techniques in real life.

The Winter Festival Competition is not far away, and she, who is far away in the North District, has also begun to prepare for it. Although there is no peer opponent who can match her, Heshia still practices carefully. This may not bring any special benefits or changes, but as long as she sees herself improving little by little and becoming more and more stable, she will also feel a little happy.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Heshia still hopes that the chances of winning are as great as possible. She doesn't like taking risks, and always feels that it is a frivolous way to treat her life.

Since you have decided on the path to take, you must be indomitable, determined and firm, and every improvement in strength will make people feel at ease and happy.
