Chapter 31 The Desire of the Weak
The news that the foreign level 20 human swordsman easily defeated the captain of the level 28 of the Wind Team, quickly swept across the village like a tornado. Although the elves are usually very quiet and elegant, they really don’t give in to the fact that they are gossiping at all.
In a blink of an eye, Berryl, Dillin, and the words "Blade of the Crafting Spirit" frequently appeared in various conversations and chats. Naturally, many curious people came to watch the caravan camp, but Midi, who made a beautiful "show", did not mean to go out, but avoided the crowd.
Soon, the sun set towards the horizon and the forest returned to silence.
The elves' discussions came quickly but also went quickly. Berrell had no shame to see people and didn't know where to hide. Midie still kept a low profile. At night, the caravan returned to his former purity.
"Do you think that young elf named Dilling will come to you?" Fina couldn't help asking.
"Of course." Midie nodded.
Taking Diling as the breakthrough point of the elves tribe and then finding the demon veins is exactly Midi's plan and the reason why he took the initiative to provoke the dispute. However, it was already dark at this moment. Although the elves had night vision ability, they were actually not used to evening activities.
Therefore, there was no one at this time, and the red-haired girl was a little suspicious whether the other party would really come.
But Midie was not worried about this.
Because he saw the strong desire for power in the eyes of the young elf swordsman of level 19.
Just like myself in my previous life.
Therefore, Midi gave up his usual cautious style, performed on the spot without hesitation, abandoned the low-key and official website, but directly chose to conflict with the captain of the Wind Team. In the final analysis, this battle has only one purpose, which is to show the true power to those who desire power.
During the entire competition, Midi did not use any of the skills of the ghost swordsman, nor did he make his strength and speed exceed the standard of level 20. Under the premise of precise control of power, Midi forced himself to complete a battle to completely suppress the advantageous profession of the 28th-level range.
There is no need for ghosts and gods, nor levels, to reach such a peak! Midi tells this with the facts. The elf who is also a swordsman must be extremely excited after witnessing such a showdown, right?
So, that young elf will definitely come.
Then, bring what Midi wants.
The camp fell into silence again. Looking at Midi, who was still calm and composed, Fina couldn't help but sigh again, but at this moment, the merchant apprentice came over with an excited expression in her eyes: "Mr. Midi, an elf came to find you. He said that his name was Dilling, which was bought during the day..."
Halfway through the apprentice's words, I felt a gust of wind pass by, no, to be more precise, two waves. In the blink of an eye, there was no one left in the camp.
"You are Dilling, so late, what's the matter?" Although he was sighing in his heart, "it's finally here", on the surface, Midie remained silent, and even had a little surprise in his expression.
Fina saw Midi's skillful acting skills, and couldn't help but sigh that even if this black-haired guy was thrown into the intriguing noble circle, it would be a disaster. Then, the red-haired girl gave a little silence for the young elf in her heart.
"Mr. Midi, I have a heartless request..." Deerin said hesitantly. After a few seconds, as if he was determined, he suddenly knelt down on one knee, put his right hand on his left shoulder, and lowered his head deeply, "Please accept me as your apprentice, please teach me that powerful swordsmanship, I want to become stronger!"
This is the highest etiquette of the elves tribe, and generally only salutes the elders at major rituals.
However, Midi shook his head: "When you see the sword technique I performed during the day, do you want to learn it? But unfortunately, it is my unique mystery, and it is impossible for you to learn it."
Dilling instantly showed an extremely frustrated look, and her long ears drooped unenergized. But at this time, Midi changed her mind and said, "But, after all, for the swordsman, strength is the foundation and skills are the improvement. Although I cannot teach you the skills, it can help you improve your most basic physical fitness. At that time, it may be possible to achieve a perfect job transfer."
"Really, Mr. Midi!" The elf stood up excitedly.
"Of course." Midi showed an unfathomable smile, "I happen to have a way of exercise that can effectively and strengthen the body for a long time, but this method requires a condition, the infiltration of magic power in the magic vein!"
He made a special fight and pretended to be a famous teacher here. Midi was not trying to show off his might in front of a group of elves. After all, everything was to find traces of the demon vein.
But when Diling heard the word "Demon Vein", her face immediately changed from excitement to embarrassment.
Can't you even be able to make things difficult for this level? The elves are indeed a group of conservative and stubborn guys!
Fina couldn't help but sigh. As the first heir to the Hamilton family, she was actually quite able to take it. However, at this moment, she saw Midi, who had always smiled at her sunshine, deliberately being a liar here, so she really couldn't bear it.
Just cheat, but in the end, I can't cheat. I wasted time and made enemies with the wind squad. This is a big loss, right? Fina suddenly felt a little unwilling.
However, just as the red-haired girl wanted to persuade her, the young elf raised her head and looked at Midi upright, as if she wanted to see the answer from his black pupils. Then the elf spoke: "Even if it violates the tradition of the Silver Star Tribe or the rules of the clan, if this is the only way to the road to power, then we will go to the demon vein now!"
Midie nodded, and the light in her eyes flashed, as if it was an uncatchable meteor in the sky.
After passing through several watersheds, several areas controlled by beast groups, crossing two small rivers, a huge rock appeared in front of Midi and Dilin. Needless to say, Midi, as a ghost swordsman, had sensed the surging magic spring below.
This is a magic vein.
After arriving at the demon vein, Midi did not make any amazing moves like killing people and silence them - future reinforcements are still counting on these elves. Besides, even if they really cross the river and destroy the bridge, there is no need to kill people at all. At most, it is enough to knock them out.
According to the agreement, Professor Midie gave Dilling a set of methods suitable for elves to exercise.
Speaking of which, this method of magical tempering the body was developed by Alice, the Witch of the Mist and Midi. Now it is used to use the magic veins set up by the Witch of the Mist, which has produced twice the result with half the effort.
After just two hours of guidance, Midie was unreserved, and Dilling also tried her best to finally master this simple magic body quenching method.
But at the same time, his physical strength was exhausted and he had to return to the village first. Midi used the excuse of looking for Luminous Grass to make potions, so he stayed.
After Dilling's breath completely disappeared, Midie sent a signal.
Ten minutes later, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded in the forest under the cold moonlight. With the rustling sound of the shrubs, three figures appeared in front of Midie. It was Fina, Sigmund and Lilian who had been waiting for a long time.
Feeling the existence of the demon vein, the three people who have been wandering around for several days have been excited and eager to try.
"That elf probably didn't know you have used it?" Fina glanced at the direction Dillin was away and sighed slightly.
"Anyway, the exercise method is not fake, which is very fair. Besides..." Midi smiled faintly at the red-haired girl and comforted her, "It's for his own good."
"Is there any reason to lie?" Lilianqi said, unable to help but start to talk viciously again.
"If I don't use the method of deception and show off with him directly, he will definitely agree to me." Midi talked casually and analyzed in detail, "but, in this way, he will not be deceived, but will take the initiative to sell and betray him. In this way, it may bring him a lifetime of guilt and shadow, and it may also embark on the road of any means from now on. Each of them is very bad."
"But he may also reject you, guarding the tradition of tribes, right?" Fina immediately refuted.
"Impossible." Midie shook her head.
"Why?" the red-haired girl continued to ask.
"Because for the weak, becoming stronger is much more important than most things, more important than morality, more important than tradition, more important than tribes, and even more important than dignity." Midie replied quietly, and the voice without emotional ups and downs seemed particularly cold in this quiet winter night, as if it was frost.
"What about you?" After a while of silence, the future Queen of Magic Bombs finally couldn't help asking.
If it were me, I could do anything to protect you and Alice.
Midi thought this way, but of course she didn't say it. If she suddenly confessed so enthusiastically, she would scare Fina. Although she couldn't help but feel the urge to embrace her former lover in her arms, the three of them had been together for more than ten years in the previous life. Whether it was Fina's personality or love itself, the reborn person knew very well.
It's still far from time to time.
"Do you know it in the future, one day." Midie smiled, and said in a light sentence regardless of the dissatisfaction in the red-haired girl's eyes.
Then, he took a few steps forward and placed his hand on the huge rock.
Chapter completed!
