Chapter 3732: The fantasy journey of a teenager (3)(1)
Night had long fallen, but the depths of the forest were still busy.
Balls of will-o-wisps floated in the air, emitting a dark green light that illuminated the open space in the forest.
A young man waved his arms and directed the White skeletons to clean up the ground that was originally overgrown with weeds and trees.
It was like a football field, and it was still expanding.
In the process of working, the decayed white skeletons often broke down, and the young man was also responsible for repairing them.
For example, if the bones of the hands and feet fell off, they would need to be reattached. Because the decay was too serious, it was very difficult to reattach.
In order not to delay the progress of the mission, the young man naturally had to actively carry out maintenance. However, he was just a young man living in the mountains, how could he know such a secret technique?
Even a real Magus would have a headache when faced with such a situation.
Summoning was easy, but repairing it was difficult.
However, this young man, who knew nothing, took it for granted that he would use grass ropes and rattans to tie up these fallen bones.
However, this method was actually effective.
The skeletons that were tied up could still move freely, and they worked hard to level the ground according to the young man’s instructions.
The young man worked so hard only because he was worried that he would be turned into a skeleton, but he did not know that the black-robed Magus beside him was amazed.
This mountain youth had given him quite a few surprises.
According to the black-robed Magus “plan, he would let the boy return to the village after he was done with him, and at the same time erase his memories.
However, after seeing the young man’s talent, the wizard suddenly changed his mind.
He felt that the young man’s talent should not be buried like this, but should be helped to embark on the road of cultivation.
In the past, for someone like this youth who came from a poor background, the road of cultivation was destined to be full of hardships and bumps.
It was very likely that he would be on the run for half his life and end up with nothing.
As someone who had been through this, the black-robed Magus was far more clear than others about the hardships and difficulties of an ordinary Magus-apprentice.
However, with the opening of the space-time channel, the plane war was about to arrive, and the Sorcerer world was about to undergo earth-shaking changes, and the original laws would inevitably change.
This was a great opportunity. If he could grasp it firmly, he would definitely be able to soar to the sky.
It was easier for apprentices like the teenager, who had special talents but had difficulty entering the wizard Tower, to get ahead.
Thinking of his past, combined with the current situation, the black robed Magus finally made up his mind.
“Kid, come here for a moment.”
The black-robed Magus suddenly called out to the young man.
“My Lord, what are your orders?”
The young man’s appearance at this time was very much like the village chief who fawned over the rich and powerful. When facing the Knight, his face was full of humility and respect, completely unlike his usual arrogance.
The teenager remembered that when the village chief did this, the Knight’s expression would ease up, and his tone would not be so strict.
In order to please the wizard, the young man subconsciously imitated him so that he would not turn into a skeleton.
“Hehe, Yingluo.”
The black-robed sorcerer sneered at the young man’s fawning attitude. He felt that the young man was as cunning as a farmer.
His clumsy but careful flattery made people know that he was flattering her, but they couldn’t bear to reprimand him.
After all, the other party had already done his best to please him.
“I see that you have some talent. You should be able to try cultivating it. I wonder if you are willing?”
If a sorcerer-apprentice understood the hardships of the Sorcerer world, he would know how rare this opportunity was.
A powerful Magus actually took the initiative to teach him a cultivation technique. This was definitely a rare opportunity.
This was because in the Magus world, fair trade was also important. If one could not come up with a satisfactory price, then one could forget about getting what they desired.
If they hoped that someone would take the initiative to give them benefits, it meant that they had not become true cultivators.
“This Yingluo.”
Hearing the black robed Magus “question, the young man hesitated. He never believed in free lunch.
Even if there was one time when he picked up a rabbit that had died after hitting a tree outside the village, it was because he had come out to look for food.
What kind of price would this powerful sorcerer have to pay if he wanted to teach him the way of cultivation?
If he lost his life, he would never learn it.
“What?”
Seeing the hesitation on the young man’s face, the black-robed sorcerer was also slightly stunned. He did not expect that the young man would still hesitate when he took the initiative to teach him the skill.
If it was on a normal day, people would probably fight to the death over it, and they would not behave like this young man.
“You don’t want to learn?”
The black-robed Magus asked, his voice cold.
“I want to learn from Yingluo, but I’m afraid I can’t afford to.”
There were schools in the nearby villages, and those who wanted to study had to pay school fees. It was difficult for the young man to even support himself, so how could he afford to go to school?
When the Carpenters at the entrance of the village wanted to recruit apprentices, they had to first pay the apprenticeship ceremony and then work for free for five years.
During this period, they were allowed to be beaten and scolded, and they were absolutely not allowed to resist. Otherwise, they would be kicked out of the house.
Learning from blacksmiths and hunting from hunters, no matter what skill one learned, one had to pay a tuition fee first. At the same time, there were all kinds of strict requirements.
Compared to the survival skills of these mortals, the spells of Wizards were much more powerful and could not be compared to ordinary survival skills.
One had to pay a huge price to learn this skill.
The young man was afraid that he would fall into a trap, so he hesitated. In fact, he was very envious of the Wizards ‘means.
Hearing the young man’s answer, the black-robed Magus was slightly taken aback, and then he chuckled.
hehe, I almost forgot. You’re so poor that you can’t even afford your underwear.
Hearing the black-robed Magus “sneer, the young man’s face immediately turned red, and he subconsciously clenched his legs.
He really only had a pair of pants, and his butt was already exposed.
it’s okay. I can let you owe me money for the time being. When you have the ability to pay me back in the future, you can pay me back.
The black-robed Magus thought of himself. Back then, he was as poor as a teenager. Because of his lack of money, he had spent a long time to learn a spell.
Compared to his current wealth and strength, the tuition fee back then was simply a drop in the ocean, but it almost cut off his path of cultivation.
Hearing the black-robed Magus say this, the youth naturally did not hesitate any longer. He knew that this was a rare opportunity, and it would be difficult to encounter it again if he missed it.
Thank you, sir. I’m willing to learn!
The young man hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. He remembered that all the young men in the village had to do this when they were learning from a master.
But at this moment, he felt a force wrap around his body, and he couldn’t kneel on the ground at all.
“You’re not my direct disciple, so there’s no need for you to kneel before me. This is just an ordinary deal between us.”
The black-robed Magus said softly. He had no intention of taking in a disciple, even if the young man had a strange talent.
Firstly, it was because of his identity and personality. Secondly, it was also because times were chaotic, and a great calamity was about to happen.
Under such circumstances, it was not appropriate for him to add more concerns to himself. He had to avoid trouble as much as possible.
Once they became master and disciple, should he save the young man or not if he was in danger?
It just so happened that in such a great calamity, ordinary people and weak cultivators were the most likely to be swept up.
The waves would engulf countless living beings and eventually turn them into a bloody mess.
Whether or not the black-robed Magus could survive such a great calamity would all depend on the will of the heavens.
