Weird Survival: I can devour thousands of talents

Chapter 180: 179: The mystery of life? Completed successfully! Level 26!

"You really did it!"

Axia came close to Ling Xiao, and her unnaturally fiery eyes almost hit Ling Xiao's eyes.

Angelina didn't question it at all, because she was the same.

Ling Xiao, you really learned all three spells!

Although he only achieved full mastery of the final and most difficult [Thousands of Cold Lights], he failed to touch the aura of perfect casting!

But this terrifying achievement is enough for him to secure the title of "magic genius"!
Aksia knew very well that her ability to cast these three spells with ease was entirely due to her natural aptitude.

Not only does Ling Xiao not have the same ice talent as himself, he even claims that he does not even have a talent for magic.

This is indeed the case from the actual performance.

He was able to learn so quickly simply by brute force!

Getting started and progress, breakthrough and mastery!
Anyone can see these processes, that strong learning ability is really terrifying

For the first time, Aksia felt envious of other people's talents...

“You taught me well!”

Ling Xiao was very happy.

Not only did he get three spells for free, but the mission was also completed almost perfectly.

Just as he was about to settle the bill.

A small hand suddenly grabbed it.

Ling Xiao instinctively activated his internal energy, but suddenly realized that it was the hand of the girl who was so close to him.

Considering Axia's fragile mage identity, wouldn't his outburst of anger directly shatter her!?
Moreover, it is a bit unkind to take advantage of someone and then hit them back hard.

So the fierce energy that had just burst into flames quickly shrank back.

During this awkward in and out, the cold little hand grabbed Ling Xiao's hand.

"His-"

It was like a chill rising from the depths of the soul, coming quickly and going away quickly!
Ling Xiao felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave in an instant, and the illusion immediately disappeared without a trace.

But it seemed as if a cold star remained in his mind, flashing a faint but firm cold light.

The [Thousands of Cold Lights] that had been sought for in vain was perfectly cast. After hiding and hiding until Ling Xiao had given up, it finally shone!

That’s the feeling!!
Stars of cold light appeared behind Ling Xiao again, but this time they were not only dense, but also difficult to distinguish after they shot out, hitting the same point not far away at the same time!
Here come several more powerful waves of shooting!

In fact, the Alchemy Notes had already recorded it solemnly the first time!

[The ice spike trap is just an appetizer. The ice crystal shield is quite interesting. Thousands of cold lights perfectly cast a spell? Interesting... Interesting! Young man, keep it up!]

Master Flamel praised every new and unique spell! May every [Thousand Cold Lights] you cast in the future be a perfect spell!

【Magic[4/? ]】

Four spells, all ice-based!
Although he is a little unfavorable in some subjects, it cannot hide Ling Xiao’s inner joy!

I didn't expect that [Flames in Bloom] was still accumulating strength. The three spells I just saw tonight have been mastered and are now fixed as perfect spells!

This contrast fully illustrates the difficulty of self-study and the help of good teachers and friends!

If Axia could keep up this level of instruction, wouldn't he be able to max out the Alchemy Notebook?!
As Ling Xiao's gaze moved downward, Aksia shuddered and quickly withdrew her hand.

Her smooth, white porcelain face was flushed, and she lowered her head and stammered embarrassedly, "You are really not... you are really not mine..."

Then she thought of something, and suddenly mustered up the courage to raise her head and ask seriously: "Um, Mr. Xiao! Where are you going in the future? Can you take me with you?"

"Take you with me?"

Ling Xiao took two steps back calmly. Seeing Sartre's equally puzzled expression, he smiled politely and said, "Axia, why do you have such an idea?"

Aksia twirled her long hair with her fingers, and an idea came to her mind while she was struggling.

"Didn't I lose? If I lose, I'll go with you!"

"what?"

Now it was Ling Xiao's turn to be confused.

He looked at Sartre and Angelina for help, but found that they looked even more confused than he was.

"Um... Miss Axia, I am a civilized person. We don't accept disciples after losing."

"I see that your Yalan Town is a civilized country, so there shouldn't be such logic, right?"

"me……"

It can be seen that Aksia really wants to say something important to impress Ling Xiao, but she is reluctant to speak out because of concerns.

Angelina wanted to help the two communicate, but she really didn't know where to start.

Doesn't this hurt the relationship?
How come everyone is speechless after so much competition?
Sartre's face changed next to him, as if he had figured out the reason, but he also chose to remain silent.

He looked at the troubled Aksia, his eyes also filled with entanglement and struggle.

"What the hell is going on?"

Ling Xiao felt a little helpless.

I'm just here to gather information.

It's okay to get benefits from getting involved in the competition.

How come this seems to reveal some other secrets?
He is really only good at fighting and killing, and can't mediate family conflicts!

Fortunately, in the end, the guest was not put in too much trouble.

Sartre waved his hand, indicating that they should go back to the mage tower and talk slowly.

Angelina quickly brought hot tea to everyone, then sat down next to Aksia, hugged her cool and silky arm, and prepared to listen to her story.

Normally, the latter would push her away in disgust, but today, contrary to his usual behavior, he let her hug him.

She only looked up at Ling Xiao from time to time, and when she found her gaze was looking back, she quickly lowered her head to fiddle with the teacup.

Although the hot tea inside had lost its steam, ice chips were still gradually condensing on the wall of the cup.

But no one saw through her absent-mindedness. Sartre looked at his favorite student, whom he had raised since childhood and treated almost as his own daughter, with complicated eyes.

The story begins one winter many years ago...

……

"This... Axia wasn't born in our Yalan Town?"

Angelina turned her head in surprise, but her eyes could not penetrate her long hair.

"So what?"

Old Sartre said slowly: "She grew up with you since she was a child."

"Sansa, Gehrman, and I were out exploring when we ran into danger. If we hadn't found Axia after hiding in the cave, I'm afraid the three of us would have died outside."

"The girl was so quiet when she was swaddled... Old Hermann almost stepped on her. When Sansa picked her up, we realized she was so tiny. Her eyes were white and tender, and she didn't cry. She just looked at us curiously, like a cat..."

"Leave her there to die? Ha, we won't do that. Even if taking this little one with us will make our subsequent escape difficult, we won't abandon our human conscience."

"In fact, it is our choice that gives us a chance to live."

Sartre smiled proudly, "The monsters we were chasing finally found us."

"Hermann and I are ready for a fight to the death. Oh! I have to admit, that guy looks just as handsome as me when he's fighting!"

"Don't get carried away! Uncle Sartre!"

Angelina was so excited that she interrupted Sartre's sudden moment of confidence with a coquettish look.

"Alright, alright," the satyr continued sullenly. "When Sansa held Axia, the tenderness and determination on her face were truly beautiful. I think that's what they call the radiance of motherhood!"

"Just as we were preparing to cover their escape, Axia showed her power."

As if recalling the scene at that time, Sartre's face showed an expression of reminiscence and a hint of awe.

"A chill erupted from her, reaching the sky! Then the sky changed, and an ice storm the likes of which we had never seen began to sweep across everything around us!"

"Those monsters were about to flee with their tails between their legs, but they disappeared in the wind and snow within a few steps. However, the eye of the storm where the three of us were standing remained unaffected."

"In the end, the three of us took Axia back to Yalan Town."

Sartre summarized Aksia's origins.

"So, kid,"

He looked at the girl who kept her head down with gentle eyes.

"You also know that you are extraordinary, so...what do you think?"

Ling Xiao acted as a qualified listener. Even though Aksia glanced at him from time to time, he did not say anything and listened to the whole story quietly.

It seems that even Sat and his men don't know about the Ice Spirit Clan behind Aksia.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that the other party is not lying.

However, Aksia was able to show such powerful strength when she was a juvenile, so why was she abandoned in a cave?

Why did her tribesmen and parents, who were originally with her, leave her there alone?

Could it be that they went out hunting and left their cubs at home?
Are you kidding me?
How powerful must her parents be to be able to use a powerful move like Ice Storm at will?

This conjecture is as absurd and ridiculous as the emperor's golden hoe.

But anyway, Aksia was found there all alone.

Afterwards, Sartre and his men brought her back to Alan Town, but the Dragon King, who had not returned, discovered that his daughter had been kidnapped and became a "tailed beast" guarding the village.

Everything was calm, as if Aksia was really just an abandoned baby.

"But I don't believe it,"

Aksia's voice was firm.

She first glanced at the teacher with guilt, then mustered up the courage to turn around and say to Ling Xiao, "I don't believe my parents would abandon me for no reason. They must have their reasons..."

"I want to go find them!"

"And then? Return to their embrace? Let Yalan Town become just a beautiful memory in your heart?"

Sartre and Angelina looked at Ling Xiao in surprise, because they never expected that this outsider would have such a "question".

"of course not!"

Aksia immediately denied it, "I will definitely return to Alan Town! I just want to find them and find out why they abandoned me back then, that's all!"

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now."

Ling Xiao apologized for his unkind words in time.

He has always had strong control over his emotions, especially after acquiring abilities such as [Unwavering Will].

It was just that Aksia's words touched a place in his heart that he had carefully kept but didn't want to recall.

During the time in the orphanage, Ling Xiao witnessed the beauty of human nature, but he also saw the fickleness of human nature time and time again on the sad faces of his companions who had left and returned.

Some found their original parents and wanted to go back; some found adoptive families but were “returned”…

They desperately want to return to their original family and be loved by their biological parents; they package themselves perfectly to hide all their shortcomings and flaws, hoping to become a real child of the adoptive family...

This is the emotional journey that every orphan will go through.

But Ling Xiao had abandoned it a long time ago.

Since his parents don't want him, he doesn't want them either.

Naturally, there is no need for so-called adoptive parents.

Don't look outside for help.

You can’t ask for love from others, and you can’t ask for sincerity from others!

If Axia had any thoughts that he hated so much, Ling Xiao would have definitely scolded her mercilessly.

He rarely breaks down, and this is the only thing that makes him vulnerable.

But once you touch it, everyone who comes has to step back a little!
"But...but Axia, if you leave, Yalan Town will lose its last trump card..."

Angelina said in a muffled tone.

She knew that Ling Xiao, the mysterious and powerful genius, gave Aksia hope of finding her relatives.

Mr. Xiao is the only outsider in all these years.

It's understandable that Aksia doesn't want to miss this opportunity.

only……

She really wanted Axia to find her own hope, but she also didn't want to see her leave and see the despair of no one being available in Alan Town during this critical moment...

Angelina tried to get Sartre to say something, whether to refute or agree, to at least make her feel less tormented.

But the old wizard just looked at Aksia gently, without saying anything to keep her.

"I can see that you all want to help others."

In the fireplace of the wizard's tower, the dry fire crackled and exploded.

Ling Xiao's calm voice reached the ears of the three people.

"We should indeed continue heading south, but taking Axia with us is not something I can decide on my own."

He looked at the girl with complicated eyes and said, "Besides, it's such a big deal, you should discuss it with Yalan Town first and come up with a conclusion!"

From the perspective of interests.

The addition of such a powerful individual to the team will definitely increase the strength of [Light of Green Mountain] again!

With such a good teacher and helpful friend always by your side, your own magic practice will be much smoother!

But the key is that the other party is not a survivor!
And they are not ordinary Aboriginals.

Whether it is [Lost People] or [Ice Spirit Clan], they are suffixes that Ling Xiao has never seen before.

If we rashly include it in the team, it will be difficult to distinguish the pros and cons.

After saying goodbye to the three people, he went out to "study on his own".

Aksia generously gave Ling Xiao many compiled and summarized spell manuscripts, and the three of them were going to sit around the fire and talk about the future.

The temperature outside is naturally not as good as that by the fireplace.

But Ling Xiao was not affected at all.

He didn't rush to start learning the spells in the manuscript, but instead checked the rewards he was waiting to redeem!
Axia's final grab helped him capture the perfect spell of Wan Qian Han Guang!

At this point, all three spells have been successfully learned!
Under the divine power of the Alchemy Notebook, they were all fixed in a perfect casting state!
[Reward: Second-level Experience Group *86%; Excellent Status [Ice Element Affinity]; Axia Limited Talent [Frost Radiance]]

【Experience has reached the upgrade requirement! 】

[Level increased to LV26! Free attribute point +1!]

That group of dwarf apes was really rubbish. Ling Xiao killed most of them like chopped melons and vegetables, but the experience he gained was not enough to fill up the final experience bar.

Fortunately, it turns out that tasks can really give experience!
And this is just a small bonus!

The real treasure is yet to come!
