Master Tongtian

"It's been three days and you still haven't found the thief?"

When asked this question, the two thick eyebrows on Chabolai's forehead were twisted into two barbs. It was obviously a very serious expression, but when paired with the two big eyes with soft curves below, the aura suddenly disappeared.

Lilith didn't dare to look at Xia Bolay's face, fearing that she might get into trouble if she couldn't help laughing.

To distract herself, she stared down at the pattern of the carpet.

"Sellers is so cunning and creates a lot of confusion along the way."

"Through the resonance of feather power, we can only confirm that he is still near White Horse Town, but it is difficult to find the specific location."

The barb on Xia Bolay's face became even sharper: "He stole the feather and still dares to hang around. What does he want to do?"

According to common sense, shouldn't we fly away immediately?

Lilith said nothing, but turned to look at Rosen who was painting.

Chabolai understood immediately.

"Is it because of Rosen? Why? Even if his paintings can be sold for money, it won't cost him his life, right?"

Lilith spread her hands: "Based on past information, Cyrus is narrow-minded and has an extreme temperament."

"If he is determined to do something, he will do it to the end. Now, I am afraid that he has identified Rosen, so..."

Xia Bolay was so angry that he laughed out loud: "Ha~~This thief is quite interesting!"

He thought for a moment and said to Lilith: "Keep looking. I'll be waiting here! I want to see what tricks this thief can do!"

"Yes, Mr. Chaballet."

Lilith responded respectfully and was about to exit the room.

"Wait, you can find me a strong bow with a bow power of at least 100 kilograms. Or a steel crossbow."

Lilith was startled: "Don't Mr. Chapollet have a strong bow?"

Xia Bo Lai's eyes widened: "Which eye of yours saw me carrying a bow? Asshole?"

The rude words made Lilith blush with embarrassment and explained: "I thought you just didn't have her with you."

Xia BoLai's expression softened slightly.

"I had a bow before. But it cost money to buy arrows and take care of the bow strings. It was too troublesome, so I threw it away."

A look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Lilith's face: "Whether it is a strong bow or a steel crossbow, it is only possible in the army. It is more convenient for Mr. Chapollet to ask the Baron for one."

"Looking for the Baron? Forget it, I'm too lazy to owe that hypocrite a favor for such a trivial matter."

"get out!"

He is just a low-level mage. Even if he absorbs the power of Ash Feather, he has nothing to fear.

Lilith bowed again and quietly exited the room.

After she left, Xia Bolay completely softened his expression and asked: "Rosen, you said that Cyrus was your magic instructor. What did he teach you?"

Naturally, Rosen only picked those who could see the light and said, "I taught me meditation and mage's hand, as well as some fragmentary knowledge of spells."

In fact, he has not been idle these three days.

I used the time to relieve myself to secretly meditate, and my magic power increased a bit, and I also became proficient in the new spell 'Fire Barrier'.

"Haha~~ I have taught you a lot."

Xia Bolay looked sarcastic. After thinking for a moment, he asked again: "Then have you learned the magician's hand?"

"Learned."

"How far have you learned?"

"Now I can pick up the teapot on the table."

In fact, I can already lift more than 40 kilograms of weight and hold it for three minutes.

"Empty or full?"

"full."

Rosen showed some ability.

After spending the past few days together, he has figured it out.

Although Charbolet has eccentricities and looks ugly, he has an upright personality and is extremely confident. He is completely opposite to the dark-minded Cyrus.

Even if he knew that he had excellent magic talent, there was no need to worry about getting into trouble.

Of course, if the other party doesn't ask, he won't take the initiative to say it.

Sure enough, Xia Bolai was shocked by his answer.

"You have been meditating for half a month and you can lift a teapot filled with water? You little guy is quite interesting!"

Although he is not a mage, he is a high-level warrior. He is a well-known figure throughout the Northern Territory and has extensive knowledge.

As far as he knew, quiet meditation was only for introductory purposes, and the effect of increasing mana was not obvious.

A general magic apprentice usually needs to meditate for one month before he can get started, and three months before he can feel clearly discernible magic power appearing in his body.

But if you want to lift the teapot full of water on the table with the hands of a mage, it will take at least half a year of concentrated practice.

Rosen has reached this level in more than half a month with just a few words of guidance. The speed of progress is really astonishing.

Xia Bolai looked at Rosen carefully and thought to himself: "Is it possible that during an ordinary trip to White Horse Town, I actually met a magic genius?"

But no matter how he looked at Rosen, he felt that this kid exuded a sense of stupidity and had no resemblance to the young geniuses he had seen before.

"Didn't this kid tell me the truth?"

Thinking of this, his face darkened and he stared at Rosen with big eyes: "Rosen, tell me the truth, what else have you learned?"

Rosen was secretly shocked: "This guy's eyes are so poisonous, etc. No, maybe he's trying to deceive me."

Of course, meditation on the Creation Singularity cannot be discussed, but general knowledge is fine.

He suddenly looked 'ashamed' and hesitantly said: "My mentor often flipped through the spell books in front of me, and I peeked at some of the contents."

"you are lying!"

Xia Bolay chuckled, thinking he had seen through the other party's lie.

"Lilith told me that you can't read at all, how could you peek?"

Rosen shook his head repeatedly: "Actually, I am literate. Although I don't know everything, I can still understand simple contents."

"Who taught you this?"

"Teacher Cyrus."

"Is he so kind?"

"I learned it secretly. When I first came to Green Eagle Hotel, he read a book called "Oil Painting Techniques" in front of me. I learned it by referring to the words in the book."

Chabolai became more and more shocked: "You can learn to read by reading a book once? Is this possible?"

Rosen looked puzzled: "What's wrong? Is this difficult?"

Xia Bolay subconsciously raised his hand and pointed at Rosen: "You, you... do you really think this is easy?"

It took him several years to learn to read, and even now, his handwriting is still a mess.

"At least it's simpler than oil painting. I've been painting this thing for more than half a month, but I still can't grasp some details."

Rosen looked 'annoyed'.

‘Pfft~~~’

Chabolai had the urge to vomit blood. If he hadn't seen Rosen's ability in oil painting with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there was such an easy brain in the world!

But now he had to believe it.

He looked at Rosen carefully, looking up and down, left and right, wishing he could see through his body and his soul.

In his heart, he sighed again and again: "By the God of Gold, it turns out that magic geniuses look like this!"

Immediately afterwards, another burst of fire surged in his heart.

"Ah, Madam has been worried about not being able to find a good successor to the spell. Isn't there a ready-made one right now?"

Originally, bringing Rosen back to Silver Moon Castle to learn spells was just to take care of some errands and exchange some pictures of beauties, but now, Xia Bolai began to really take it seriously.

When his agitated mind calmed down a little, he hurriedly asked: "Then what did you see?"

"I took a peek at the advanced sun contemplation ideas. I imagined the sun for meditation every day, and then I felt that my mana increased very quickly."

"Hmm~ The sun contemplation method, although very common, is indeed a very effective flame contemplation method. In other words, your mana has the polarity of fire?"

"Well, that's probably it."

He couldn't tell whether it was fire polarity, he could only say that it looked very similar.

This answer made Xia Bolay a little disappointed, because his wife is a great moon magician, majoring in moon magic, and the polarity of her magic power is 'Exorcism Silver Moon'.

Fire polarity magic is not suitable for learning Madam's spells.

But then I thought about it, Rosen had only meditated for more than half a month, his magic power was not strong, and the fire polarity was not deeply involved, so he had every chance to change his practice.

He asked again: "Is there any more?"

Rosen didn't hide anything: "I strengthened the mage's hand. I can use this spell to throw things, such as throwing stones, which can be used to hit people."

"Throw stones at people, haha, that's what kids do."

Xia Bolay didn't care about this. The mage's hand was just like that, and it wouldn't have much power no matter how hard it was strengthened. Moreover, how deep a beginner's magic power could be?

I guess it would only be thrown a dozen meters, and hitting someone on the head would cause some pain.

"Is there any more?"

"No more, that's all."

Xia Bolai estimated that he was almost there, and said with a smile: "It took more than half a month to figure it out to this extent. You are already very good."

"When we return to Silver Moon Castle, Madam will appreciate your talent very much, and maybe she will teach you personally."

"Really?" Rosen was a little happy, but he didn't have any expectations.

"I can't guarantee it, because I can't guess the thoughts of the Great Moon Magician. I can only say that it is a possibility."

After a pause, he continued: "By the way, from now on, Cyrus is no longer your mentor, but your enemy."

"This guy got the feather of the Ember Bird, but he still can't leave. I'm afraid he's ready to take risks. If he really does this, it will be really tricky."

Rosen's heart was filled with fear, but his face was 'confused': "I don't quite understand."

"This matter is very complicated. Even if I explain it, you may not be able to understand it. I will teach you some common sense to protect yourself and your life. If you study hard, you may be able to use it soon."

"I will study hard."

Xia Bolay pondered for a few seconds, then reached out and took out a thin sheepskin book from his pocket. The cover of the book read "A Brief Discussion on Magical Combat".

"This book was given to me by my wife. Although there are not many techniques recorded in it, every bit is very practical."

"Take it and read it. If you don't understand, ask me. Return it to me after reading it. Also, be sure not to get the paint on the pages."

"I remember."

Rosen took the booklet respectfully and opened it carefully.

The first sentence reads: "Warriors and mages have different paths, but their power comes from meditation. The former turns power into combat skills, and the latter turns into spells."

The second sentence reads: "Any strong person's power has its limit. Once it is exhausted, he will be exhausted, confused and even inferior to ordinary people."

The third sentence reads: "Any strong man has flaws. When he is unprepared, a small poisonous dagger can end the powerful dragon."

After only reading three sentences, Rosen felt a sudden enlightenment, and most of the fear he had before because of his lack of understanding had dissipated.

He looked at Chabolai and said sincerely: "Sir, thank you very much for your generosity. I owe you a great favor. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will do my best to repay your kindness."

Xia Bolay heard this and laughed indifferently.

"There's no need to repay me, just draw me more pictures of beauties."
