28. Task Chains
For a week, Sean and the others stayed on the vanilla plain.
They did not choose to continue their journey to the royal capital of Lane, because there was still some time before the start of the national celebration, so they all spent their time on various trainings. In fact, the easiest thing is naturally Rena, because what she needs to train is to control the amount of strength, and she doesn't need to train anything else, with her current strength and physical strength, it doesn't matter if she doesn't have a lot of combat experience, because as long as she is hit with all her strength, she will have to be crippled if she doesn't die.
If the only thing that needs to be consumed is probably the control and use of Long Wei.
If you can't skillfully control and use this bloodline power, then Rena's strength improvement is actually relatively limited.
As for Cecilia and Shephaneo, they were not in a hurry in their cultivation progress.
Like Cecilia, her magical knowledge was mostly recorded in the heavy tome that her mother had left her, and she only needed to delve into it. And for a magician, it is actually a very happy thing to be able to delve into the content and knowledge that interests her, so Cecilia certainly can't feel tired, and her blood is the purest and richest, so even if she doesn't do anything, her magic will continue to grow.
Similarly, Shephaneo's upbringing is very similar to Cecilia's.
As a god-blooded Shephaneo, the only thing she needs to do every day is to make small talk to Ace Wintertle and gain all sorts of knowledge and abilities from the god she has always called "the old woman". As the sole descendant of the gods. Shefanio has a large amount of divine infusion every day to help her transform her body and stabilize her realm, so she basically doesn't need to work too much like other warrior classes or mages.
And the hardest ones are actually Sean and Vinya.
Both are warrior professionals. Therefore, if you want to improve your realm strength, you can only develop your body by constantly squeezing your own potential. In particular, if you carry out some more extreme behaviors, you can strengthen your strength faster, and of course, you will also pay some price. However, if you can get the right adjustment and recuperation, these costs are actually negligible.
However, like Sean and Vigna, they naturally know how to adjust and recuperate their bodies, so they can naturally play extreme training methods.
It's a pity that it came down for a week. Sean still failed to learn the Dance of the Wind after all.
The secret technique of the Dance of the Broken Wind, the criterion for judging whether it has mastered it is whether it can superimpose the power of the two bodies, that is, the appearance of an illusion.
Sean in just a week. Although he has not been able to successfully cast a clone to superimpose the amount of force, he can clearly feel that there is a surge of force in his body, although the bonus effect in actual combat is not obvious, but this does make Sean see a kind of hope.
And Vigna. After seeing that Sean only took a week, he had already preliminarily groped for the threshold of the Dance of the Wind. There was indeed a bit of surprise in her eyes. Because even those who are called geniuses in the Wind Breaking Tribe can't reach the threshold of the Wind Breaking Dance in a week, and their current fastest record is to reach this threshold in half a month.
Even if it was Vinia herself, she would have touched the threshold in ten days at most.
However, touching the threshold does not mean that you can really master the secret art of the Wind Breaking Dance, otherwise, there will not be so many people in the entire Wind Breaking Tribe, and only a few people can master this secret art. Many people in the Windbreaker tribe have spent their entire lives in the current state of Sean, so although Vinya was surprised, she didn't feel any surprise. Anyway, for her, she's seen a lot of situations like this.
After a whole week of cultivation, Sean and the others did not say how much of a transformation there was. But there is still a little progress in strength.
However, in the process, Sean and the others encountered something that made him very unhappy.
It was the garrison on the Vanilla Plains that was directly responsible to the royal family that discovered their presence.
Originally, this matter was not a big deal, and anyway, there was no direct damage to the interests of both parties, after all, there was nothing of value around the position Sean was in now. In this vanilla plain, several places of real value are heavily guarded, and although there are many poachers, there are still a few who can succeed in the end, and the patrol guards are actually set up mainly for the sake of safety.
However, recently, because of the relaxation of supervision by the North Wind Collar, there have been a lot more thieves and bandits, but there are a lot fewer poachers.
It stands to reason that if Sean and the others did not approach the important area of the Vanilla Plains, and could prove that they were not bandits and robbers, then the patrol soldiers would usually not embarrass Sean and the others. But I don't know if Lu Dao should say that Sean and the others have run out of luck, this patrol of more than 30 people actually directly insisted that they would bring Sean and the others back to the base when they saw Sean and the others.
This naturally made Sean feel extremely dissatisfied.
However, after seeing the lustful appearance of these patrol guards, Sean knew what kind of idea these soldiers were playing.
For such a person, Sean did not reveal his identity, because his identity and title have not yet been truly and completely recognized, and for these soldiers who directly obey the royal family, a mere baron is not worthy of their reverence. So Sean took another means of settlement, and that was a bloody and ruthless brutal crackdown.
In the whole battle, Sean was the only one who shot.
Although he didn't kill all of them, it was essentially no different from killing them, because Sean simply broke all the soldiers' hands and feet. If you want to fully recover from an injury like this, it is impossible without the priests of the Church of Life, but will the Lane military department invite the priests of the Church of Life for the sake of these soldiers?
The answer is obvious.
After reprimanding them a little, Sean also decided to set off for the royal capital again, where he had wasted enough time. So after throwing the hapless soldiers far enough to make sure they wouldn't find out about the secret stronghold that the Snowwind Tribe had dug up here, Sean went underground once more, and he wanted to get another mission from Saloki.
A time-limited mission is usually the first link in a task chain, and only after this task is completed, subsequent tasks will appear.
Sean completed this time-limited mission, but did not receive the next task, which made Sean feel extremely curious. Of course, he did not rule out whether there would be a phenomenon that was completely different from the game situation, after all, Sean has now felt more and more that the real world and the game world are completely different.
"We're ready to leave." After Sean entered this underground stronghold, he saw that the Snow Wind Guards were carrying out some transportation work, and they were even using the tools in their hands to carry out some sealing work, and Sean knew that they did not plan to abandon this stronghold.
A barbarian tribal stronghold in the deep belly of the kingdom of Lane?
Sean's brow furrowed slightly.
But he didn't say anything about it.
"We're also planning to leave." Seeing Sean's slightly raised eyebrows, Saloki smiled, "We really don't plan to give up this stronghold, but don't get me wrong, for us elves, this stronghold is actually like a work of art, and it's really a pity to be so deserted and destroyed, so we decided to seal it." …… Of course, if I have the opportunity in the future, I may be able to use it again. ”
Although Saloki had some explanation for this matter, after she said this, it was the same as if she had not said it, and there was no clear answer at all.
But Sean doesn't care, anyway, in the future, it will only be the garrison of the Ryan Kingdom or the North Wind Lord, and it is useless to have a dime to do with him. He thought about it carefully, and found that he really didn't know how to say how to hint at whether Saloki had any tasks next, so after a short silence, Sean simply asked Saloki if there was anything else he wanted to do.
For Sean's direct inquiry, Saloki was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You are really not simple. ”
Sean shrugged, noncommittal.
Sometimes, he thinks it's really good to go straight to the point and get straight to the point.
"There's one more thing, indeed." Saloki nodded, and her face became a little serious, "I actually brought so many people here, in addition to wanting to hook up with the nobles of Ryan, there is also a purpose to come for the Tree of Life. ”
"The Tree of Life?" Sean's face changed slightly.
"It's not really a tree of life, it's a broken branch of the tree of life." Saloki spoke again, "This time the Duchy of Lane is about to be upgraded to a kingdom, so there will be a grand national celebration. I've heard that the Trade Federation are planning to take this opportunity to hold an underground auction in King Lane's capital, and it is certain that a broken branch of the Tree of Life will be put into this auction. ”
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid you'll have a hard time bidding." Sean thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "On the side of the royal capital, there are too many stupid and fast, and whether it is a broken branch or not, as long as the word 'tree of life' is involved, those nobles will be like mad dogs." ”
Saloki glanced at Sean thoughtfully, as if she was a little surprised that Sean knew the meaning of "the broken branch of the tree of life": "I know the way." ”
"And you still want to go?"
"Because I didn't think about bidding in the first place."
Hearing this, Sean was stunned this time. (To be continued......)
