The quiet morning in the small village was awakened by the sound of iron hammering. It was still dawn, but the rhythmic hammering sounds sounded like a death warrant to Lin Xingchen, making him very angry.
"Elba, if you dare to open the furnace so early again tomorrow, get out of the village!" Lin Xingchen could only curse loudly when he could no longer bear it.
I covered my head with the quilt and continued to take a nap, but unfortunately, the annoying iron hammering sound came again.
I walked out of the room under the three girls' eyes of trying to hold back their laughter. As soon as I went out, I heard the three girls inside laughing.
"What are you laughing at! Have you finished your training? Hurry up and practice! I'm going to test your skills later. If you don't pass, you won't have any food to eat!"
Ignoring the three girls wailing inside, I finally felt better after venting my anger about getting out of bed.
"I'm very curious about how you achieved your current strength. Now should be the best time for us to train or learn skills." Alba said to Lin Xingchen who was walking to the side with a sidelong glance.
"Some things cannot achieve good results even if you work hard every day. That's because of talent issues, and I have good talent in this area." Lin Xingchen said as he spit out the mouthwash in his mouth.
"Maybe! That's why I really hate myself sometimes. Why do I like forging when I obviously don't have the talent but I just can't help it!"
"What's the big deal? Some people, when they have enough food and clothing, naturally want to find something they like to please themselves. You are one of them."
"Look, according to the methods you taught me during this period, I feel that my skills have improved greatly." Alba handed a half-finished dagger to Lin Xingchen.
"You've made great progress. I estimate that in a few years you'll be able to truly attempt to challenge the master level!" Although he himself is still half a step away from the master level, it is still very easy for him to instruct those who are not as good as himself.
"Even someone like you is still half a step away from the master level. I think it will be even more difficult. But I will work hard to get closer to this goal." Alba took back the dagger and threw it aside and began to knock the sword blade on his iron felt.
"Alba, tell me some common sense about the demon world. I haven't seen any records on this in the library." Thinking of the book he had read at Will's house more than a year ago, Lin Xingchen felt that this person should know more.
"We in the demon world divide strength into three levels, and we name each level after the devil! Little devil, devil, big devil, these are the names of each level, and each level is divided into low, medium and high. I am a high-level big devil!" He raised the huge hammer in his hand.
"Of course, people with your strength in our demon world are collectively called monarchs, which means the rulers of the demon world!" Abar looked at Lin Xingchen with envy of his strength in his eyes.
"Elba, I see that you are also a person of status. Why don't you get some bloodline potions to improve your bloodline potential?"
"Do you think bloodline potions are just stones on the roadside? Maybe in your eyes, all you need is the ingredients, but its price is too expensive. I might be able to buy a few bottles, but if I really want to complete the final leap like Jiaya, the amount of purple crystal coins I need will be astronomical."
"Although having no money is my main reason, the second reason why I don't want to take the blood potion is that I don't like the feeling of weakness after the transformation." Alba's words opened another window for Lin Xingchen.
The two of them sat around the iron stove, hammering swords and chatting about some secret anecdotes, until Xiuya, who was in charge of cooking, came over and called them to stop.
"I wonder if you are planning to leave here?" Alba said his guess while eating sweet potatoes.
The three girls beside him looked at him with wide eyes when they heard the news. "Well, I came out to travel, but unfortunately I got injured due to some problems, and finally had to stay here for so long.
My injuries are almost healed now, so I plan to leave here and take a walk. The demon world is so big that there are always places that will open my eyes."
"Then let's go to Kalonya! No one knows how big the demon world is, but I have been to Kalonya, a very prosperous place in our demon world. When you go there, it's best to go to the professional association to take a level test. This will be very helpful for your travels."
"Uncle, please don't leave, okay?" Ellie put a large plate of steamed buns on the table and said pitifully to Lin Xingchen.
"Uncle wants to look around. When I'm tired one day, maybe I'll come back to find you!" He said with a smile, touching the little girl's head.
"I have taught you almost everything I should have taught you. The rest is for you to try slowly on your own. If I leave here, where are you going to go?"
"I'm not as ambitious as you. Although this village is small, it's very good to me. It's quiet enough for me to calm down and think about what you teach." Abar expressed his idea of staying.
"Then I guess you'll be staying here for several years, so you can protect the people here and that'll be a big favor to me!"
"When are you planning to leave? Do I need anything prepared for you?"
"Tomorrow! I still need to teach the three girls some important things today. As for martial arts, you can teach them!"
Lin Xingchen called the three girls who were crying silently to a quiet place, and set up a soundproof magic barrier.
"What I am going to teach you today is something very important even to me. It is called Bloodline Refining and its basic function is the same as Bloodline Potion.
But compared to the bloodline potion, this technique is more complete and peaceful, not as intense as the bloodline potion."
Lin Xingchen was always serious when teaching and did not allow them to be distracted.
Very good, now you just need to practice this technique quietly until it has no effect on you, and I will give each of you a gift when I leave."
"Ellie, you are a magician. What I gave you is a magic wand. The material used for this wand is very precious. I hope you keep it well. Unless it is a matter of life and death, I don't want you to use it." As he said that, he took out a magic wand made of a branch of the Tree of Life and handed it to Ellie.
"Xuya, you are more suitable to be an assassin than a swordsman. I will give you a dagger. This is the best level I have now. I hope you can use it well."
"As for Jia, I made a set of light armor and a long sword for you. When you have time, put them on and test their abilities. They will help you at a critical moment."
Since he was planning to leave, Lin Xingchen went to Uncle Barto, who gave him a lot of seeds and taught him how to plant them. He also wrote down all the questions. Anyway, Alba wouldn't leave for a while, so he could teach everyone with him around.
After a round, it was almost evening. Lin Xingchen prepared a sumptuous dinner. The three girls who looked unhappy in the afternoon were surprisingly happy in the evening.
The next morning, the sound of Elba's forging iron rang out again at the same time. Lin Xingchen packed his clothes, opened the door and left.
Looking at Elba who was concentrating on forging iron, he nodded at him and walked out of the village with big strides. Not long after he walked out of the village, Lin Xingchen realized that someone was following him.
He moved behind the follower in an instant. Looking at the three girls, each carrying a bag, Lin Xingchen didn't know what to say.
"Where are you going?" His voice scared the three girls so much that they jumped up.
"Ah uncle...you didn't run away! We don't know how you got behind us!" Ellie asked in surprise.
"I've talked to Grandpa Barto, and he said that if I'm willing, he would let me go with you to see the outside world." Jia mustered up the courage to look Lin Xingchen in the eyes and said these words.
"What about you two? What are you following?"
"We will go wherever Sister Jia goes. Sister Jia said that we are good sisters and should not be separated!" Xia spoke loudly as if to give herself courage.
"Tsk..." Lin Xingchen sucked his teeth, thought about it and finally agreed.
Ignoring the three excited girls, he walked forward, thinking in his heart whether he should change his destination this time.
Long-distance hiking is a very challenging sport. After two days, the two younger ones could no longer hold on. However, seeing that they refused to complain and kept up with the pace, Lin Xingchen gave up.
There are actually horses in the farm space. These horses are the product of special space and time that have been modified. Whether it is the appearance or the physical fitness and speed that horses should have, they can be said to be excellent.
If the knights saw him using three horses to pull the carriage, they would probably scold him again. The carriage belonged to the Magic Butterfly Carriage, and he had to search for the wheels in the storage space for a long time before he found them.
The demon world is not a very safe place. At least Lin Xingchen has been attacked by wild beasts several times in the ten days since he left the village.
It’s not as good as the monster that is attacking their carriage now. Although its level is less than three, Lin Xingchen still let the three girls take action.
Since I plan to bring them with me, I naturally have to continue the training. As the eldest sister, Jia wore armor and stood in the C position to act as the main attacker, while the two younger ones were responsible for containment and sneak attacks.
Just like Lin Xingchen said, maybe Xia has had a dark heart since childhood. She is indeed more suitable for the profession of assassin. This girl has never known what shame is and always uses the most ruthless and despicable means to fight for opportunities for herself.
Although this is not a disadvantage but rather an advantage in a life-and-death struggle, Lin Xingchen still hopes that she can get out of the dark side of her heart.
Perhaps due to her age, Ellie's use of Fireball and Shadow Magic was smooth but unreliable at first glance. On the contrary, it was Jia's first time fighting against Warcraft, and both her courage and actions were worthy of praise.
