Seeing the happy face of little Weisser covered with snot and tears, Ash nodded gently and wiped her little face with his sleeve: "Weiouna didn't lie to you. Sooner or later, we will meet again in the virtual world."

Ash understood exactly why Vione said that.

Birth, aging, sickness and death are the unbearable pains in life, whether for oneself or for those around you.

In fact, Ash has also reached the age where he has to face the separation of his blood relatives. His mother has always been in poor health and is so thin that it is hard to tell how she raised these two naughty brothers. When he was in college, his father was hospitalized for a heart attack.

But it was not until he returned home at the end of the semester that his brother briefly mentioned to him the health of his parents. It was also during the holidays that Ash gradually realized that his parents were getting old.

The junk apps on the phone that take up memory, the QR code you need to use when you go out to buy things, the phone you need to use to fill out forms at the neighborhood committee, the public account you need to use to make an appointment at the hospital, how to choose a TV station for the set-top box... Some steps even make Yaxiu feel annoyed, and you will also encounter problems such as network lag and phone memory lag. His parents asked Yaxiu many times what he thought were simple questions, and Yaxiu taught them many times.

But it was only a vacation, and Ash returned to school when the semester started. When he graduated from college, he chose to stay in a big city to work, far away from his hometown and his parents.

So he has always been grateful to his eldest brother and sister-in-law. If parents are a buffer zone between children and death, then for Ash, his brother and sister-in-law are a buffer zone between him and bad news.

When Yaxiu first changed jobs, he actually had several job offers, including some that offered fixed-time get off work and retirement and leisure, but he ultimately chose a mobile game company where "only one of their priorities was their heart and their performance," just to make money.

Because the only thing he could give back to his parents was money.

However, since the birth of his nephew, his parents' health has been getting better and better, so it was Ash who sent the money first. The nephew must be very regretful, after all, although the "mysterious uncle from the big city who doesn't know what job he does" beat him hard, the red envelope he gave was real stuff.

My father probably hasn't changed much, after all, he was a soldier before, and there's a sign on the door of their house that says "Home of Honor", which doesn't seem feudal or superstitious at all. But I can't say the same about my mother, she started believing in Buddhism when my grandmother passed away, and now she's probably praying for him and chanting sutras, hoping that he'll be reborn into a good family in his next life.

Even in a world without miracles, people still need to seek illusory spiritual sustenance, let alone a magician's world full of miracles? Most people are not strong enough to withstand difficulties, let alone a little girl who has not learned to take care of herself?

Moreover, maybe this is really possible?

"So you have to paint well, and Vione will be happy too."

Although Ash's two sentences were illogical, little Weisser's IQ was not very high at the moment, so she said happily, "Okay!"

Ash calmed down and returned to his whiteboard to paint. He tried it and found that it was quite difficult to paint with souls. Although he could control the color depth and thickness of the strokes, if he was distracted for a moment, the painting would be a mess. He had to concentrate without any distraction.

He glanced at the others and found that everyone was drawing seriously, even the crying little Weisser was not lagging behind. He thought that he was indeed a talented magician.

After nearly an hour, everyone finished drawing. At this time, Ash looked at everyone's works and was deeply shocked.

First up is the work of Little Swordsman. In theory, her difficulty should be the lowest, after all, she only needs to draw two people. However, if Ash hadn't known in advance that there were two people, he would have suspected that they were two fish-slaying dragons that had turned into spirits - why are their faces so pointed! ?

However, the little sword girl still had a very confident expression, with her hair almost standing up, waiting for Ash's comments with great anticipation. Ash could only utter: "Very spirited!"

Then came the little witch's painting. Ash looked at the stick figures on the whiteboard and couldn't even tell the difference between male and female. Putting aside the skills, the attitude was obvious.

Facing Ash's questioning look, the little witch thought for a moment and said, "Sorry, I'll draw it again."

She added a stroke to the face of a stick figure, drawing a devilish and crazy stick figure, and said, "Does it look more like you now?"

Ash, who had lost hope, went to look at Weisser's work, and was suddenly enlightened. Although it was still graffiti, at least the details of the content could be seen. On the left was a female magician, and on the right was chaos, darkness, ruins, and skyfire. With just a few strokes, the atmosphere of destruction in the world was outlined. According to this composition, the theme of this painting should be -

"So you want to save the world?" Ash said in surprise.

Little Weisser was also a little confused and sniffed: "Really?"

"Hey!" The little sword girl called Ash over and pointed at his painting and said, "Is this me?"

"Where am I?" The little witch was also very curious: "Where am I?"

Compared to them, although Ash's drawing was not very good, at least the appearance and perspective were drawn, and the sword witch quickly found herself in it. Little Weisser also came closer curiously: "Am I there?"

Ash pointed at the girl sitting on a tree stump reading a book: "You are here."

Little Weisser looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said, "Thank you!"

"Why thank me?"

"Because after I draw Violaine, Violaine will thank me." Little Weisser said seriously, "So I have to thank you too."

Before Ash could respond, the four white boards suddenly began to vibrate, then turned into a ball of soul mist and squeezed into their souls.

Snap, snap, snap——

Ash felt like a bunch of exploding candies were stuffed in his soul. With continuous popping sounds, the knowledge about soul factions kept exploding in his mind.

He suddenly had an epiphany - among the four of them, his income might be the lowest.

The rewards of this level have nothing to do with the completion of the painting. As long as the trialer completes the action of "drawing seriously", he can pass the level. This level is to train the magician's "plastic soul" in a childish and ignorant state after the rebirth.

For a stinky adult like Ash who has kept his memory intact, the plasticity is naturally very poor, and there is not much effect at all. However, the three of Sword Princess successfully returned to their childhood and turned back into innocent little cuties. After passing this test, their soul faction experience and soul talent will increase significantly!

However, Ash was not at all sorry about this result, but was very happy. After all, he didn't know how to practice, so the growth of his soul talent didn't mean much to him; and he was too clumsy when he was a child. If he could completely return to his soul and become a child, he might not be able to pass this level.

After a moment, Ash opened his eyes and saw that Sword Lady, Witch, and Weisser had all returned to their original state, and the Childhood Experience Card officially ended.

Everyone had different expressions. Sonia tried to keep her expression calm, but her eyes wandered away from Ash's sight; Diya was still in a daze, and seemed to be discussing with the witch sisters what had just happened; Weisser's expression was very strange, she looked at Ash with an indescribable feeling in her eyes.

But everyone's reaction was understandable. After all, their ignorant side as children was exposed, which was almost like social death. Ash didn't dare to tease them. He pointed at the light ball and said, "This time the reward seems to be a little special."

After passing level 35, the rewards are still three options, but each one is something you haven't seen before.

The yellow light ball on the far left is the "chance to return to youth". In other words, if they don't choose this, then the next time they come to level 35, it will no longer be a test of returning to youth, but will be replaced by something else.

Some people might wonder, isn't this better? But the four people who experienced the resurrection clearly knew how much they had gained from this test - they could clearly feel that their soul faction talents had increased a lot.

This test is also a reward.

It goes without saying how important talent is. Not to mention the top magical talents of Sword Princess, Witch Weisser and others, ordinary people can only reach the silver level at best if they don't have talent.

But to be more precise, no matter how good the talent is, it can only allow the magician to reach the gold level. The test of the holy realm is no longer about talent, but whether the magician can extract extraordinary insights from life and the virtual world, and then break through the bottleneck of magic.

Let alone legends, they can no longer be described by good or bad talent, or talent has little meaning to legends. The term "legendary magician" not only describes strength, but also the magician himself - if you want to achieve legend in magic, you must first achieve legend yourself.

Only a legendary and epic life can create an enlightenment that transcends all other beings.

However, the soul faction has exclusive magic that only the elves have the talent for, not to mention that the ghost inheritance is a test of the soul faction. If they can return to their youth a few more times to improve their talents, it will definitely be of great benefit!

However, Diya suddenly pointed at the white light in the middle and said, "I want this!"

Ash and the others were a little surprised.

As far as they could remember, this was the first time the witch had taken the initiative to ask for spoils, so Ash agreed immediately: "Okay!"

Jian Ji and Weisser had no objection either.

Among these three rewards, the most valuable one is undoubtedly the "chance to return to youth". Theoretically, they can use it to infinitely brush up their soul talents. And if they don't choose it now, they will never have the chance to return to youth again in the future, unless this reward appears again in other levels.

But if they really have to become children again, they really don't want to.

Weisser even breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She was just thinking of what reason she could use to stop choosing this reward - she was the person who could least afford to turn into a child, and she almost exposed her secret just now.

However, they were not too surprised by the witch's request. After all, the white ball of light in the middle was a magical inheritance that included the three-winged spirit!

In fact, the light ball on the far right is also a magic inheritance, but it is obvious that these two inheritances are at most legendary level, and cannot be compared with the ghost inheritance. These inheritances were probably picked up by the ghost prophet during his adventure, but these inheritances could not be integrated into his magic system, so they were put into the ordinary rewards.

What the Ghost Prophet did was very normal, just like getting low-level equipment that doesn't match your level from playing games, which you can't use and can't sell for a good price, so you might as well give it to children as a reward.

The magic inheritance chosen by the witch is called "The Lower Ones Overthrow the Higher Ones"!
