The second stage of magic training

  The cold taste made Lei Te feel transparent.

  At this moment, he thought that according to the previous simulation content, the arrest of the members of the evil alchemy organization had been completed, and the results of the interrogation should also come out.

   In another month, Abiru, the deputy commander of the defense line in the canyon, will come to carry out the promotion ceremony for him.

  Thinking of this, Leiter felt a burst of relief. Thinking about the 6th of this month, it will be Ruilai's wedding, and they only returned to the territory today, so they don't have much time left, so they need to prepare for this matter quickly.

  After dealing with the picking and sowing of frosty sunflowers, Leiter took Ruilai back to the main castle.

  Sveta was in the passage on the first floor, watering the potted plants by the window.

  He held a red shower head in one hand while humming a light tune. The master's return made him feel at ease.

   "The scorching summer is finally coming to an end. There is no need to patrol the manor every day and sweat." He imagined in his heart: "Cool autumn is coming soon, and we can pick wild okra and berries around Young Eagle Town.

   Well, but this year Shar must not be allowed to do this job. Last year, because I trusted him too much, there was an okra, which was stained with cow dung and was not found! "

   "Sveta, it's great that you are here. There is one thing I need your help with." Leiter walked into the main castle, looked around, and found the butler in a black coat.

  Sveta regained his senses, and quickly put the shower on the wall beside the passage.

   Quickened his pace and approached Leiter, respectfully said: "Master, please order."

"It's a great happy event." Leiter patted Ruilai beside him with a smile on his face, and said: "This time I went to Dam Town, the marriage between Rilai and the eldest lady of Dam Town—Kelina has been completed. Set, on the sixth of this month.

  So... there are five days left, I hope to dress up our manor and castle to prepare for the wedding in a few days. "

   "This is great, congratulations, Master Ruilai, and a happy marriage in the future!" Sveta offered his sincere wishes.

   "Thank you, Mr. Sveta!" Riley replied.

   "Master, what do you think about the wedding scene? We will arrange it according to your needs."

   "You don't need to ask me." Leiter shook his head and looked at the second son beside him: "Rilei should make the decision. This is his wedding!"

Ruilai didn't refuse, but held his chin seriously, pondered for a while, and said slowly: "I want to cover the passage on the first floor with flower petals, and on the wedding day, the chandelier above my head, I hope it can radiate blue light.

   As for other places, I don't have any special requirements, just use the similar general layout when I hold a wedding with my elder brother. "

   "Is that so..." There was a hint of thought in Lei Te's eyes, "Flowers are easy to say, there are plenty of them in the manor. If you want the chandelier to emit blue light, you can use sapphire as a lampshade and cover it..."

  Before Leiter finished speaking, Ruilai took over, "Let me engrave the sapphire lampshade. It will be more meaningful if I do it myself."

   "Then it's hard work for you. You can use the gems in the warehouse as you please." Leiter also had the same idea. He saw Ruilai's extremely talented ice eagle chicks in the magic plant cultivation field just now. He didn't think there was any need to use other people.

  Rett led the way to the hall again.

"I hope that the hygiene of the castle can be carefully cleaned every day in the past few days. There are also tables, chairs and benches. If there are any worn or worn places, please ask Kuding to make a set as soon as possible. I don't want accidents on the wedding day." Lei Te looked around, pointed to every corner, and ordered to go on.

   "Understood, master, I will carry out this matter meticulously to ensure that Master Ruilai's wedding will be held smoothly." After speaking, seeing that the master had no new instructions, Sveta stepped back solemnly, preparing to arrange tasks.

   "Ruilai, where did Baige go these days? It seems that since I came back, I haven't seen Baige." Leiter asked as if he suddenly thought of it.

   "It likes to play in the thorn forest. Since I took him there three months ago, it has fallen in love with it completely!" Relai said with some helplessness when referring to Baige.

"So that's how it is. The wind-striped tiger is full of wildness, lively and active. Before breaking through to the second level, hunting more ordinary beasts will be good for growth, so let it go!" When he said this, Lei Te also thought of himself. The Fire Feather Eagle, has not given up feeding the fire essence during this period of time, and even when he leaves the territory, he will give it to his son to help feed him. Calculating the time, there are still six months left, and it's time to hatch.

   "I think so too, Father!"

   After drawing up a preliminary plan for the wedding arrangement, the two had a brief sip of tea in the castle.

  During the period, Ruilai applied to test his own training effect and start the follow-up magic training, Leiter naturally would not refuse.

  So, the father and son came to the training ground together.

   "Ruilai, let me see the effect of cultivation in recent months, how much the level of spellcasting has improved!" While speaking, Leiter condensed two stones.

  Rui Lai's eyes showed a hint of eagerness to try. Looking back on the results of painstaking training in the past few months, he was quite confident in his heart!

   "I'm ready, Father!"

   After the voice fell, Leiter pulled his finger out from the gap between the two stones, and pushed half a centimeter inward.

   "The old rule is to pass through the middle of two stones without leaving a trace on the stone. This time, if you can make no mistakes for many times in a row, we will start the next step of magic training!"

   "It's a deal!" Ruilai was full of ambition, his mental power twitched, and a water arrow quickly gathered and shot straight in front of him.

   With a "swoosh", the water arrow passed through the center of the stone.

  Leite's eyes lit up. Judging by his eyesight and experience, he could see that the flight trajectory of the water arrow was perfect, and it was absolutely impossible to make mistakes!

  Going forward to take a look, there is really no trace left in the middle of the two stones.

   Thumbs up to Ruilai, encouraged: "That's right, do it three more times, and if you succeed in all of them, you'll be considered up to the standard!"

  Rilei nodded seriously, staring intently at the two stones. Then the old trick was repeated, and three consecutive shots of water archery were cast.

   whoosh whoosh

  Three water arrows shot through the stones one after another.

  Ruilai stepped forward to observe in person, pointed to the stone and said excitedly: "Father, I succeeded, and I have met your requirements!"

   "Haha, yes, the progress must be maintained!" Leiter encouraged, and then said: "In this case, let's proceed to the second stage of training!"

   "Father, please tell me." Reilly made a gesture of listening carefully.

  Leite began to talk: "Before we start, we need to know the magic of water archery. The starting point of casting the spell is fixed, and the end point needs to be adjusted according to the change of the target. Therefore, attacking a fixed target is only the most basic requirement.

  In actual combat, in most cases, the enemy will move. Needless to say, the next step of training is to improve the accuracy of striking moving targets. "

   "It can be simply called mobile shooting." Leiter gathered a stone in his hand, threw it lightly repeatedly, and said: "When you do this training in the future, remember to find someone to throw the stone for you."

"I understand, my lord father." Riley frowned, and said without pressure: "But for me, moving and shooting is not a difficult task. Before my lord father came back, I had practiced it myself. ."

   "Oh? Really?" A strange smile appeared on Leiter's face, "I told you last time that a true master will always have the heart of an apprentice.

  It seems that your understanding is not deep enough..."

  Hearing this, Ruilai's face was solemn, and he was keenly aware that things might not be as simple as he thought.

   Under Ruilai's puzzled gaze, Leiter's mental power twitched, leaving a hole in the center of the stone, and the size of the hole was only slightly larger than the thickness of water archery.

   Seeing this scene, Ruilai's pupils shrank.

  Reminiscent of the mobile shooting that my father just said, I feel bad in my heart.

   "Could it be... passing through a moving hole?!"

"Come on, my son. Next, I will throw the stone high, and you need to take advantage of its tumbling and moving in the air to adjust your position and the casting angle of the water archery, and predict The tumbling and moving trajectory of the stone finally passed through the hole!"

   "Now, can you still hit every shot?"

  Rui Lai was stunned, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and really wanted to say: "This is too difficult! Don't say every shot is perfect, I feel like I can't hit a single shot!"

  But finally took a deep breath, remembering what my father once said, "There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb." After making up my mind, I said solemnly: "Come on, my lord father, I want to give it a try!"

   "That's right. Believe in yourself, take the first step, and you're halfway there!" Rhett cheered, and then threw the stone over ten meters high.

  Rilei's expression froze, his head twisted following the movement of the stone, and at the same time, his eyes were closely searching for the location of the hole.

   Moreover, it is not enough to just find the hole in front of it. It is necessary to find a perfect passage, and predict the trajectory of the roll and movement, and come to the high-speed moving, always changing passage in time, and then let the water arrow run through it.

  Every link is a difficulty! It is even more difficult to do it in one go!

  Ruilai felt dizzy for a while, and just moved a few steps, as if he had caught the first hole, the stone fell to the ground.

  Practicing it yourself is several times more difficult than what Ruilai heard and imagined.

   "Huh." Reilai let out a long breath, looking at the rocks on the ground, feeling a sense of frustration in his heart.

  This is completely different from the fixed target shooting in the first stage. Compared with the difficulty of the current training, he feels that the previous fixed target shooting is like a child's play.

   "Don't forget, you can also slightly control the wind element to speed up your movement!" Leiter reminded.

   "Yes!" Relai's eyes flashed with surprise, adjusted his state, and gritted his teeth: "Father, come again!"

   At this time, Leiter had gathered more than a dozen stones with holes under his feet, and he picked up one and threw it into the sky.

  Rylai surrounded the wind element in advance, and looked up carefully. At the same time, his footsteps kept moving, and his speed was indeed faster than the first time.

   But in the end, the stone fell to the ground unscathed.

  In the ever-changing trajectory, he found the perfect passage, and his body kept up with the reaction, blocking him out of the door.

   "Again!"

fail

   "Again!"

fail

  …

  For one afternoon, Ruilai was in the process of failing and then standing up again, tortured by small stones without any temper at all.

  Leite has condensed on the ground a nearly two-meter-high hill composed of practice stones.

   Staring at Reilai, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, meditating to regain his mental strength, a sense of relief appeared in Leiter's eyes. Frustration is not terrible, but the terrible thing is to shrink back when encountering setbacks.

   "I have gathered enough practice stones here, about three days' worth, and I will add them from time to time in the future."

   "Thank you, Father!" Riley opened his eyes, showing a trace of fatigue.

  Although meditation can restore mental strength, but such a tight string, maintaining a high degree of mental strength for an afternoon, also made him a little mentally exhausted.

   "Tired?" Rhett asked.

  Rilei was silent, and replied after a few seconds: "Tired, but I will persevere!"

   "Very good. Failure is the mother of success. Every failure is accumulating experience for the final success. What you have to do is to maintain the belief of not admitting defeat in the process and survive until the end!"

   "I will!" Riley showed determination on his face, and then said, "Father, can I ask you a question?"

   "Oh? What's the problem." Leiter also sat on the ground with great interest.

   "In your original magic training, apart from the improvement in actual combat, how did others usually assist you?"

Leiter thought for a while, organized his words, and said: "I'm an earth magician, and it's not difficult to assist. Just ask the knight to get a long-handled utensil such as a wooden stick or plank, and put a point on it, and let him do it as he pleases." Swipe. I just need to stab the point, a very crude way.

   "Or in autumn, kick a tree, let one thorn break off as many leaf stalks as possible. In winter, stab snowflakes. In spring and summer, you can sting mosquitoes.

besides

   Well, in short, there are many ways. What hinders a person's growth is often not external conditions, but a person's determination and perseverance. Leiter stared at the white clouds, as if lost in memory.

   "It makes sense." Riley nodded approvingly. The fatigue in my heart dissipated a lot in an instant because of these words.

  Talking about the topic of the battlefield, Ruilai's mind became active, and he suddenly asked a question: "Father, where is the comrade who assisted you in magic training?"

As soon as these words came out, Leiter fell into silence, and said after a pause: "Actually, in the past few years, someone assisted me, and as one by one died in battle, I made friends with new comrades in arms, got acquainted with them, and then assisted me. I train and then die...

   Later, I didn't want to repeat this process, so I adopted other methods. "

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't bring up my father's sad past." Ruilai said apologetically, and after a little thought, he changed the topic, "Father, is there a third stage of magic training? If so, what will it be about? "
