Chapter 7 Talent - Superb! The bronze mirror glowed faintly...
The bronze mirror glowed with a faint green light, and looked ancient and mysterious.
The mirror did not reflect the girl's face, but slowly revealed a strange force. After a moment, the stone magician seemed to recognize her. He looked at the girl with a surprised expression, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Advanced, combat system!"
It turned out to be a high-level combat talent.
Now, the girl's parents in the crowd couldn't help but smile, because the anxiety caused by the drought was much less.
In this world, it is good enough to just awaken your talent, let alone an advanced talent.
As the captain of the escort team, Helan had been guarding the Guizhi Qingmizi to prevent any accidents. She naturally paid attention to everything, including the moment when the girl's talent came out. Helan rarely smiled and couldn't help but said: "Good! Not bad!"
The guard team has very high talent requirements, and most of them must be combat-type. Now that she is still in her prime, she must also pay attention to the next generation of children. A talented next generation means a constant supply of fresh blood for the guard team, and the village will only be safer!
"Go back and eat more strange food. Don't save the white millet at home. After the ceremony is completed, go find Qian Bacun. People with high talents can get two handfuls of green millet every month." The stone magician nodded with satisfaction. While explaining the rules to the overjoyed girl, he also reminded her: "Don't be reluctant to eat it. This is given to you by the village."
Even in a village with a certain level, not every child can awaken their talents. Even if some of them awaken their talents, they are at most low-level talents, which is better than nothing. The village has a high demand for children with high talents, so naturally they will not be stingy.
The next child was even more nervous.
A chubby boy also slowly approached.
The stone magician also took a look. This time, his expression was very calm, but he nodded and said: "Medium, auxiliary talent."
"Don't move, let me take a closer look!" The stone magician stretched out his hand and activated his strange power. A light yellow strange power appeared from his palm, swirling up and gently wrapping around the chubby boy. Although the chubby boy was a little nervous, he gradually stabilized. Soon a layer of light yellow light appeared around his body, resisting the stone magician's strange power.
"Very good, about the talent of earth." The stone mage's face showed deeper satisfaction, and his eyes looking at the fat white boy were much softer.
"You are lucky. You can go into farming in the future. If you have a higher talent, you can understand the problems of the land clearly, and planting strange plants will be much easier than ordinary people. Your family can earn a lot of income just by planting white millet." This can be regarded as a friendly suggestion from the stone magician.
As soon as the stone magician said this, the chubby boy's parents also looked delighted.
In this world, especially for villages like theirs that grow strange plants, auxiliary systems, especially those related to fields, are of a high level.
As for the taller boy at the back, he was standing at the end, looking even more nervous. Not far behind him, there was a pair of elderly villagers who were watching the ceremony with even more nervous expressions.
Ye Lu knew this child. His surname was Chen, and he was also the child of a married woman. However, his bloodline was more distant. Only his grandmother was from He Village. His parents were dead, and he only lived in He Village with his grandparents from his mother's family. He had been eating strange food only a little longer than Ye Lu.
Chen's grandparents are not rich in He Village, but at least Ye Lu still has the good things left by his warlock father. His family is just ordinary villagers, relying entirely on their skills in growing white millet. It can be said that whether or not one has awakened talent is really important to Chen Yuanli.
"Chen Yuanli!" The stone magician treated this child no differently than other children, and gestured to the child to lower his head.
The stone magician also looked down at the bronze mirror. After looking at it for a while, he slowly nodded and said, "Awakening talent, low level."
"Battle system!" When the stone magician said the latter part, he looked at the bronze mirror again, paused, raised his head and said to Chen Yuanli: "Don't move yet, let me see where your talent lies."
This is not like an ordinary combat system. Liu Xiaocao's light is very bright, and the battle flag is almost rushing out of the mirror. The stone mage doesn't even need to look at it. He must be a good seedling for the guard team. However, Chen Yuanli's talent is a bit weird.
The stone magician raised his hand slightly, and a pale yellow light took the lead, circling around Chen Yuanli for a long time and getting closer. After a while, a faint red light was revealed, which almost imperceptibly resisted the pale yellow strange power.
"The physical strengthening system is a bit unconventional, but it is not useless." The stone magician nodded when he saw the red light. A hint of understanding flashed across his eyes, and he comforted Chen Yuanli, who seemed somewhat calm: "Unconventional methods also have their advantages. It's just that the specific part that is strengthened is not clear yet. If it can strengthen the five senses, your talent is no worse than He Xiaoxiao's." He Xiaoxiao is the little fat man just now.
Only then did Chen Yuanli reveal a slight smile.
If the five senses are strengthened, farming will be an advantage. In fact, the greatest advantage is not in this but in searching. If a valuable strange plant can be found, Chen Yuanli is indeed better off than He Xiaoxiao. The only drawback is that his talent is too poor, just low-level.
Chen Yuanli was very satisfied with this. His parents were both ordinary people. His biological father was even just an ordinary scholar who didn't even have any supernatural powers. The things left by his latter father had long been used up, and there was almost nothing passed on to him, his son, except for a decent name. Now he was relying on his grandparents from his mother's side for a living. With this talent, at least he could support them in the future.
Chen Yuanli happily stepped back and went to look for the old couple.
Now only Ye Lu and three others are left.
Ye Lu was standing at the front; no, further ahead was Uncle He Qi.
"Don't worry, your father is a warlock, and our family has produced many talented children. You will definitely be able to awaken your talent when it's your turn!" Uncle He Qi mistakenly thought that his nephew's expressionless face meant he was nervous, and whispered a few words to comfort him.
Ye Lu nodded obediently, but he was not actually very nervous, but more curious.
Ye Lu instinctively believed that he had a talent, the only thing he was curious about was what kind of talent it was!
"Ye Lu!" The stone mage in front squinted his eyes and looked over. Seeing that it was Ye Lu, he spoke in a much more familiar tone and motioned for him to come over quickly. The young man walked over very naturally.
Master Shi is very familiar with the He family. Ye Lu's mother's bloodline can even be traced back to Master He. Naturally, Master Shi is not too worried. In this world, talented people often have difficulty in having offspring, but once they have children, the possibility of their bloodline offspring awakening their talents will be much higher.
"Lower your head and observe the bronze mirror carefully!" The voice of the stone magician sounded in his ears.
Ye Lu subconsciously lowered his head to look at the bronze mirror. The mirror was a little blurry at first, and the mirror surface was dark, unable to reflect a person's face. The patterns around the bronze mirror were constantly changing and rotating.
Ye Lu stared at the mirror in shock, and the next second, a scene suddenly exploded in his mind.
A picture suddenly emerged.
It was a high mountain, a towering mountain to look up to. He had already reached the top of the mountain when the clouds were thick and gloomy. The clouds were circling upwards, one circle after another. At the top of the clouds, a portal was faintly visible. The portal was simple and elegant with carved beams and painted buildings.
The vegetation on the mountain is very lush, with towering trees and fairy trees and Ganoderma lucidum, even to the point of having a terrifying vitality.
It's late at night.
From time to time, a faint moonlight shines through the gaps in the dark clouds in the sky.
Ye Lu looked at the quaint altar under the moonlight. The altar was square and seemed to have certain patterns. There was a portrait floating in the air just above the table. The person in the portrait was blurry and his face could not be seen clearly. One could only vaguely discern that he was extremely majestic.
This was... the first time he saw the sacrificial ceremony at Mount Tai.
Ye Lu was stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed through his heart.
He looked at the empty altar with some hesitation. He remembered that there were still things on the altar before he swallowed them. They were all treasures that the group of weird creatures had obtained by all means. Not only did he seize the divine body at that time, he swallowed all the offerings in one breath.
Ye Lu wanted to get closer to take a closer look at what was going on, but the next second, the picture shattered and he woke up from it.
When he woke up again, Ye Lu found that he had not moved at all. A golden symbol of grass and trees appeared on the mirror. The golden light was very bright and big, and it was about to come out.
Then came the stone magician's surprised voice: "Super! Auxiliary system!"
"It's actually a kind of plant!" The stone magician said another sentence.
Ye Luze was a little confused. Wait, this is the Taishan divine body, right? It's a mountain after all. If it's not an earth element, it should be an earth element at least. How come it became a plant element? Although it makes sense, Taishan is the ancestor of all mountains and also controls the underworld. How can it be said that it also has a weird element, right?
Why is it not the turn of the plants and trees?
"It's been a long time since our He Village has produced a super-excellent auxiliary system." He Shushi opened his eyes with some surprise, looked in the direction of Ye Lu, and couldn't help but smile.
Uncle He Qi's expression was even more exaggerated. He was a little nervous at first, but when he heard "super" and "auxiliary", Uncle He Qi immediately turned into an exaggerated smile. Hahahaha, he is nephew He Qi!!! Super!!! And an auxiliary!!!
If it wasn't because it was a ceremony and in front of all the magicians, so they couldn't be too presumptuous, He Qi would have jumped up and boasted to everyone, "See, that's my nephew!" Of course, things weren't much better now. Next to He Qi was his brother, He Si, a taciturn elder. He Qi was poking his brother's arm, and the annoying smile on his face never changed.
He Qi no longer despised his brother-in-law who died early. When he died, he took his sister with him. He thought his sister must have been bewitched by that man. Poor nephew, all alone and helpless. Now it seems that his sister had a sharp eye and saw that the boy's bloodline was good. Look, the baby she gave birth to is also talented!
The stone magician couldn't help but smile. It was such an extraordinary talent. It was rare for a village like theirs with strange plants to produce one, especially one with a secondary talent. He was still planning to retire in He Village. He would be even happier to see the kids in the village becoming stronger and stronger.
Especially in today's world.
The smile on the stone magician's face deepened. He looked at Ye Lu who looked puzzled and said, "Super talents are quite special and need to be explored by yourself. I won't show it to you. You can go directly to Qian Bacun to get the green millet. Super talents can get five handfuls per month, high talents can get two handfuls per month, medium talents can get one handful, and low talents can get half a handful per month."
"This is given to you by the village."
"Take it and eat it. Try to find and cultivate your true talent as soon as possible. It will be beneficial!"
