Chapter 655
Thinking carefully about the actions of the illegitimate daughter Annie, the original body did not see it, but Yuan Jing saw it clearly. Annie was a time-traveling girl, a woman who traveled from modern society to this magical world. Therefore, she was able to win people's hearts at a very young age and instruct the servants of that family to bully the original body. Moreover, her dress also revealed her background everywhere.
Yuan Jing even suspected that her talent in water magic was not something she possessed naturally, but rather something that she inherited from a golden finger. After settling down, Yuan Jing would have to find that woman and take a closer look at what kind of golden finger she had, and that her original wish was also related to that family.
The original body's wish is a bit complicated. First, the original body hopes to have his own magical talent and become a respected magician. Second, after the original body came to this marginal area, he has been shrouded in the shadow of dark creatures. He hopes that one day he can teach those dark creatures who often hunt ordinary people a lesson and they will no longer dare to rob ordinary people at will. The third point is that he hopes to teach that family a lesson and make his biological father regret it.
Yuan Jing raised his eyebrows. Fortunately, his original body had not expected to return to that family. Although he longed for the love of his relatives, he did not have any expectations or fantasies about his biological father. He had seen through his biological father's temperament long ago and felt sorry for his mother who died early, so apart from teaching him a lesson, he just wanted to make his biological father regret abandoning him.
Yuan Jing felt that there was no problem at all. The original body would die. In addition to the direct culprit, the vampire, that family was also the indirect murderers of the original body's death. How could the indirect murderers not be punished accordingly?
The wish to become a magician is another matter. As for preventing dark creatures from robbing ordinary people at will, Yuan Jing feels that this requires careful planning and is not something that can be done in a short period of time. It is better for him to wait until he reunites with his lover and discuss it with him. It is also not something that can be accomplished overnight.
Yuan Jing returned to the village without disturbing anyone. The place where his original body lived was a bit remote, so he went in without even turning on the light. He took out the original body's treasured things in the dark.
The original body had always kept his mother's belongings, but of course that was only possible because the whole family looked down upon them. Yuan Jing thought that the original body would never want these belongings to be lost here.
After taking out the relics hidden in the cave, Yuan Jing didn't even look at them anymore. He turned around and rushed out of the village. He disappeared in the village in the blink of an eye. If any villagers came out and saw him, they would suspect that they were seeing things, or they would be terrified, thinking that the dark creatures had come to their village again.
When the villagers discovered that You Yuanjing himself was missing after a few days, needless to say, they would definitely think that the young man had died at the hands of dark creatures, and no one would pursue the real culprit for him, because villagers in this village and the surrounding areas often disappeared unexpectedly.
The villagers in the entire village are very indifferent to each other. After the original body came to the village, he did not get any help from anyone. Some villagers even maliciously cursed him to become the prey of vampires and be sucked dry. Yuan Jing could understand why the villagers here were so indifferent. Living in such a depressing and precarious environment for a long time, it is difficult for one's temperament not to become twisted and perverted.
So he won't save them directly, but when the entire environment changes in the future, if they can survive to that time, they will also be the beneficiaries.
After dawn, Yuan Jing was already far away from the village. He climbed up a tree to take a rest while communicating with the system in his mind.
"Xiao Wu, why are there two plot lines, and neither is very clear? This world seems to be very different from what I thought." The system provides two plot lines, one for the male protagonist and the other for the female protagonist, and there is no intersection between the two. If there is any similarity, it is that they both traveled through time to start a harem, with princesses (princes), elves, dwarves, orcs, saints (sons) of light, and even dragons, all of which are taken into the harem, including every race in this world. Tsk tsk, these two people have heavy tastes.
"Besides this, there are other suspicious points. For example, isn't the illegitimate daughter Annie also a time traveler? What role does she play in the plot? Oh, and what kind of existence is the lost continent that the original mother Youman came from? Are all the people from the lost continent oriental like Miman and her son?"
Xiao Wu's voice rang in Yuan Jing's mind: "Yes, the host's inference is very accurate. The situation in this world is very special. It can be said that "He" is in the crack of time and space, which causes this world to have friction with other worlds. Perhaps the Lost Continent is in this situation, which also leads to the arrival of some gods in this world, such as the God of Light, the God of Darkness, and the God of Nature and Fire. Similarly, the laws of this world are also quite complicated."
"There are so many time travelers. Maybe there is something wrong with this world itself. The two plot lines are only for reference. The host needs to explore the others on his own."
Yuan Jing nodded: "Okay, I understand. By the way, can you identify my lover's current condition and where he is?"
The next moment, a panoramic picture appeared in Yuan Jing's mind. It was a panoramic picture of the entire world, and a small red dot was marked in the picture. Needless to say, that should be the location of his lover. At the same time, Yuan Jing's location was also displayed. After seeing it clearly, Yuan Jing took a breath. He was a little far away from his lover, and the red dot was in the ocean, so it was a little difficult to reach there.
Fortunately, he has a system that provides cheating methods, otherwise it would be very difficult to determine his lover's current location and go to meet him.
Now that he knew, Yuan Jing had to adjust his plans. He originally wanted to find a place to settle down first, study the magical civilization of this world and improve his strength, and then look forward to reuniting with his lover. But now it is no longer possible. His lover's condition is obviously not good, and he must reunite as soon as possible.
So Yuan Jing adjusted his route, taking a straight line to the junction of land and ocean, and then tried to find a way to go out to sea.
The time along the way will not be wasted, but if he wants to obtain the magical civilization of this world, he can only use some improper means. Fortunately, although this world is a little chaotic, the suppression on him is much smaller. Compared with the previous life, he can mobilize more soul power.
Originally, he only had one silver coin and some scattered copper coins on him, making him a very poor person. Yuan Jing used the power and speed of this transformed body to hunt several magical beasts, and picked some plants with more energy that he sensed, which should be the magical plants from this world. He exchanged them for more than a hundred gold coins in a town he passed by, and at the same time replenished some supplies before continuing on his journey.
On the way, he did not forget to practice. The energy in this world was very mixed, including spiritual energy, vital energy, and colorful energy spots. Yuan Jing believed that they were magical elements.
The original body was not detected to have any magical talent. Yuan Jing felt it himself and didn't know what was going on with this body. But when sensing these magical elements, he found that no magical element was willing to get close to this body. Could it be that he really had no talent to become a magician?
If it were someone else, they might be helpless, but who was Yuan Jing, unwilling to get close? Yuan Jing forcefully grabbed those magic elements and took them into his body, but unfortunately, unless he kept using his soul power to restrain these magic elements, they would run out of his body again after a while.
Yuan Jing rubbed his forehead. He could obviously practice magic, but he just didn't have the talent for magic. If his original body was still conscious, he really wanted to talk to it. Could he not become a magician but still beat the magicians to a pulp?
No, he still had to find some books on magic to study and see what the principles of magic were. The more impossible it was, the more Yuan Jing wanted to get serious. He had no talent for magic? He wanted to become a magician.
Unfortunately, there was not even a single magic book to be found in the town they passed by. The hierarchy in this world was very strict. Even if one had a talent for magic, there were only two ways to become a magician. One was to be accepted as an apprentice by other magicians, and the other was to enter a magic academy to study. This was destined to form a kind of knowledge monopoly. Even if the lower-class civilians had a talent for magic, it would be difficult for them to be promoted, unless they were particularly talented and were spotted by those with a high level of magic and taken away as apprentices.
For example, the family that the original body lived in before was a small noble family, and there was not a single magic book in it.
Unable to absorb magical elements for the time being, Yuan Jing focused on absorbing spiritual energy for his own use. After another seven days of travel, Yuan Jing finally found a group of target persons from whom he could obtain useful information.
He did not rush forward, but instead climbed onto a tall tree and secretly observed these people.
Judging from their ages, they were all in their twenties or thirties. Three of them were holding sticks. Yuan Jing knew that they were magic wands. It would be easier to cast magic with a magic wand, so only those three were magicians among the dozen people. Their attire was also different from that of others. It should be the magic robes unique to magicians.
The remaining people should belong to another professional swordsman in this world. They cultivate fighting spirit. They either wear a sword around their waist or hold a sword in their hands. They are scattered around the three magicians and are alert to the surrounding environment. Their purpose is to protect the three magicians.
Yuan Jing observed them while flipping through his own space. After a while, he had a sword in his hand that was almost the same as those people's. Well, before he learned the magic knowledge, he would pretend to be a swordsman for the time being.
The dozen or so were resting in an open space. The three magicians were talking in a relaxed manner, and the swordsmen were serving them tirelessly.
This won't do. Yuan Jing still wanted to see how a magician fought, so he turned around and jumped off the tree and left for a while. When he returned to the tree, he heard the roar of monsters in the distance.
"Oh no! Monsters are attacking!" A swordsman quickly drew his sword and became alert.
A 17 or 18-year-old girl with fiery red hair jumped up happily, holding up her magic wand and saying, "Finally a magic beast has appeared. Watch me, let me be the first to attack."
Among the three magicians, this little girl is the youngest and has the weakest aura, but the magic elements gathered around her are much purer than those of the other two. Yuan Jing thought that this little girl must have a higher magical talent than the other two and her status should be the highest, because the other two are obviously centered around this little girl.
"Anna, then let you try first." Another female magician in her twenties said, and at the same time winked at her male companion and other swordsmen, indicating that they should protect the little girl.
"I know. Watch me."
At this time, a magic beast rushed out, and Anna waved her magic wand and shouted: "Fireball! Attack!"
The fire magic elements around Anna quickly gathered together and then condensed into a fireball. As the magic wand was waved, it flew towards the monster and hit the monster's body. The monster roared and became ferocious, baring its teeth and charging forward without slowing down.
Anna was startled and quickly threw out two more fireballs, but neither of them hit the monster, and the other failed to stop the monster's attack. Anna's face turned pale, and seeing the monster about to rush in front of her, Anna screamed in fear and hid behind the female magician.
"Water Arrow Technique! Shoot!"
The water arrow formed by water magic elements killed the monster with one arrow. The monsters behind it also rushed out. Another male magician waved his magic wand, and vines appeared to hold back the monsters. The female magician and the swordsmen took the opportunity to reap their lives, and even left a monster for Anna to try to attack.
This time, Anna naturally killed the monster and received applause from the other two magicians and other swordsmen. Anna raised her chin with a proud look on her face.
After watching the whole scene, Yuan Jing touched his chin. He probably understood what a magician was. He felt that if he found a few magic books to read, he could pretend to be a magician. After all, in this world, the status of a magician was much higher than that of a swordsman.
These people still had experience in surviving in the wild, so after taking out the magic cores from the monsters' heads, they moved to another place and continued camping. Yuan Jing of course followed behind them and waited until nightfall.
He saw with his own eyes that the two older magicians set up a magic warning array in their camp, and then the three magicians went into the tent to rest, while the swordsmen took turns to keep watch.
It was late at night, and the swordsmen were diligently guarding the three tents in the middle. Yuan Jing hid his body and squatted outside the warning magic circle to study it. He believed that no matter whether it was the formation in the magic world or the world of cultivation, it was an application of energy factors. He was not a magician, but his soul power was strong enough to forcibly grab the magic elements for his own use. After studying the structure of the magic circle, he could enter without disturbing anyone.
After squatting for an hour, Yuan Jing stood up contentedly, then took a step forward and entered the magic circle without causing any reaction from the warning magic circle. His guess was indeed correct, and because this was the simplest magic circle, he was able to analyze it quickly.
He walked in the magic circle like a ghost, and none of the swordsmen noticed this unusual situation. There were also magic patterns painted on the tent. Yuan Jing did not do anything else but used an earth escape technique to enter the tent from underground.
He entered Anna's tent. Although men and women should avoid suspicion, Anna's status was the best among the three magicians. If she had any magic books on her, they should also be the best. Yuan Jing didn't care about these things. He would repay this girl if he had the chance in the future.
You can see that she is a little bit spoiled, but not very spoiled.
Anna was wearing a magic bracelet on her hand, which had the same function as a storage bracelet. Yuan Jing tried to imitate Anna's magic aura and successfully opened the bracelet. As expected, he found several magic books in the bracelet and began to read them on the spot.
When it was almost dawn, Yuan Jing used the same method to quietly leave the camp, with a lot of magical knowledge in his mind, and had a basic understanding of the profession of magician.
As for those magic books, Yuan Jing did not take them away. The knowledge in the books was imprinted in his mind.
It turns out that magicians rely on affinity with magical elements to determine whether a person has the talent to become a magician. The higher the affinity, the stronger the talent. The other factor is mental talent. The level of mental strength also indicates how high the ceiling of a magician's future growth will be.
Based on these two innate conditions, the magician's training, in addition to meditation to communicate with magic elements to increase mental strength, is to construct a magic model. Whenever releasing magic, it is by directly touching the magic model that the magic is cast instantly.
Anna was just a magic apprentice, and she had just learned to build a model in her own sea of magic, which was the model of fireball. The other two were junior magicians, and their intention was naturally to protect Anna. In addition to the models for apprentices to learn, Anna also had five magic models of junior magicians, which were of course also fire-related. For some reason, when Yuan Jing left the camp, he also checked the luggage of the other two junior magicians and took their magic models.
Yuan Jing thought, without meditation methods, without magic model construction methods and models, how can a person with magic talent become a magician? This is the most fundamental reason why magic knowledge can be monopolized.
On the way, Yuan Jing concentrated on constructing a magic model in his sea of consciousness. To pretend to be a magician, he had to do it thoroughly. Although he had no affinity for any magical elements, he could use other methods to force the magic element system to remain in his body.
This requires him to combine the knowledge of formations in the world of immortal cultivation with the magic knowledge in this world. He believes that by integrating the spirit gathering formation into the magic model, he will be able to realize his ideas and transform himself into an all-round magician.
Using his enormous soul power, Yuan Jing thoroughly studied the model he had obtained, and then went into seclusion for a month. Finally, he constructed the first model in his sea of consciousness, the Fireball Technique.
"Fireball."
As Yuan Jing thought about it, a fireball appeared at his fingertips. Of course, his fireball was much more powerful than Anna's. He threw the fireball out, and a hole was immediately created in front of him.
Yuan Jing snapped his fingers and found the key to the magician's door. Now he is an apprentice of a fire magician. Well, keep up the good work.
On the other side, Yan Yuansen had been repeating the process of eating and sleeping. When he woke up and digested the energy in his body, he would communicate with Yuan Jing. He was mainly concerned about the situation on Yuan Jing's side. As long as no one came to the island where he was, there would be no danger. Obviously, no living creature other than him had appeared so far.
Yuan Jing did not deliberately ask Yan Yuansen where he was. Having landed on an island like that, Yuan Jing dared to bet based on his past experience that Yan Yuansen had definitely traveled to a non-human body this time. But it didn't matter. His situation was not much better. Now he was a special existence between vampires and humans.
When he used the vitality of this world to temper his body, he found that the energy would automatically flow to his heart, making the heart stronger than other parts of the body. Isn't this a trait only possessed by vampires? He did not forcibly block this phenomenon, but continued to temper his heart and other parts of the body.
"I finally became a magician, and I just built a fireball magic model."
"Congratulations, I knew you could do it."
