Chapter 97: The "old friend" reunited after a long separation, the proficiency of "not moving for thousands of years"

Hearing Benigo's answer, Ronan was stunned.

Challenge Travis...or Lenny? !

"Is it useful?"

"certainly."

Benigo bit his pipe and said calmly: "If you defeat any of them, you will be on the same level as them. No, you are a better genius than them. How can this small trick have any impact on you?"
Well, I know what you're thinking.

The reason why I am like this is because there is something wrong with me. When I fell from the Third Ring Road, Lanni and others just came over and stepped on me a few times, which only added insult to injury. "

Ronan was lost in thought, the light in his eyes flickering.

At this time, Benigo spoke again.

"If you think it's too difficult to do this, there are still some tasks in the Magic Circle that they can't do, so just wait."

"I will also help you keep an eye on it at any time."

Ronan didn't ask Benigo how he could help himself "keep an eye on the mission" by staying in this secret space all day long. His mind was now filled with the "method to break the situation" that Benigo had just mentioned.

Ronan felt as if something in his heart was suddenly awakened by Benigo.

yes.

From the beginning to the end, he was being targeted by Travis and others. All he could think about was how to deal with it. He never thought about how to fight back.

Thinking about it carefully, what Benigo proposed is indeed the best way.

Defeat them!

Get right to the root of the problem.

If you were also in the third ring now, would you still be worried about several tasks?

However, Travis' group is the weakest and the best among the second-level wizards, and they have been famous for a long time.

I am only at the mid-level level now.

In half a year, is it possible to reach a level where we can compete with them head-on, or even defeat them?
“I’m going out for a walk.”

Ronan lowered his head, said hello to Benigo casually, and walked slowly outside the secret space.

"Go ahead."

Benigo just responded casually, without even looking at Ronan, and started playing with the potions grown in the nursery again.

The valley where the wind is howling is full of green insect shadows and the sound of buzzing wings.

Ronan stood suspended in the valley, chanting spells quickly in his mouth, summoning howling wind and snow, ice crystal spears, and frost rays
When the [frozen soil] talisman flashed four times in the consciousness space Afterwards, he clasped his hands in front of his chest, and a dark blue diamond-like light burst out.

"[Ice Hockey Technique-Desperate Freeze]!"

"Alise's Ice Ring Necklace!"

The realm of despair unfolds!

The breath of endless cold and despair filled the entire valley in an instant.

All the wind stopped.

Including those buzzing and fluttering sounds.

The huge hurricane bees remained motionless, suspended in the air like ice sculptures, and then fell from the sky with a "crash" and hit the bottom of the valley with a crisp cracking sound.

Ronan was surrounded by countless wind, frost, ice and snow, suspended in the air.

He is the source of all this coldness and despair, like the king who controls ice and snow. His expression is a little lost.

He was still thinking about what Benigo said.

"Can you do it in half a year?"

Ronan looked in one direction with far-reaching eyes.

"Buzz buzz——"

At this time, a violent flapping sound came from deep in the valley.

Ronan squinted his eyes and looked up, only to see a super-large hurricane bee that was five times the size of an ordinary green-thorned hurricane fly flying out of the valley.

This hurricane bee's entire body was filled with dark cyan light, and its two pairs of wings were as wide as curtains, with a crystal texture.

Its tail end has a dark green spike that is several meters long, and its head is covered with complex patterns. From a distance, it looks like a huge twisted human face.

As soon as the hurricane bee appeared, the stagnant air in the entire valley immediately began to flow again, setting off strong winds several times more violent than before, and large tracts of ice and snow were blown apart.
A huge coercion rushed towards Ronan. Come.

The second-level monster, the Green Thorn Storm Bee Queen!

"It's finally here..."

The nightmare tungsten steel seeped out from under the skin like black mercury, flowed into Ronan's hand, and condensed into the shape of a black one-handed long sword in the palm of his hand.

Ronan took a breath and wiped the long sword with his right hand. The faint blue flame of [Charged Weapon - Spell-Breaking Power] was like a lover's hand, wrapping around the long sword inch by inch.

Mysterious Qi flows out, and the power of the law is intertwined.

Although Ronan has always been confident of facing the second level, this is the first time he has actually fought against the second level.

“I haven’t felt this kind of pressure for a long time.”

Ronan held the sword in one hand, and a blue light shone slightly in his eyes.

"[Pure Body]! Turn on!"

In an instant, the white ball of light representing vital energy in Ronan's chest beat hard like a heart.

"call--"

The majestic life energy formed into fiery white flames that emerged from the surface of Ronan's skin. The air collapsed and the light was distorted
"Shua——"

Ronan's figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only a blur of light and shadow in the void.

When it reappeared, it was almost in front of the Queen Bee.

However, he was fast, and the Green Thorn Queen Bee reacted even faster. As soon as Ronan approached, he saw a large area of ​​densely packed wind blades appearing in front of him, almost occupying the entire field of vision.

Ronan's pupils shrank, and the billowing icy air of despair that lingered around him instantly condensed into ice, facing the rain of wind blades that were as numerous as a swarm of bees.

The ability of the Despair Domain to expel energy particles of other types seems to have no effect in front of the second-level monster Green Thorn Queen Bee. This guy itself is a terrifying source of wind energy. In his own domain, Ronan felt strongly attracted. Suppressed feelings.

In just a few breaths, the ice he summoned was no longer comparable to the violent outpouring of countless wind blades. Ronan's field of despair was almost suppressed to only a few feet in front of him, and what was in front of him was On the contrary, there is a trend of more and more wind blades.

A bright light flashed in Ronan's eyes. He advanced instead of retreating. He suddenly stepped forward. The black long sword condensed from the nightmare tungsten steel in his hand drew a perfect arc in the air. He used the master-level [Basic Swordsmanship] to break the spell. With the blessing of the flames, large swathes of wind blades disintegrated under his sword.

He forcibly cut a path in the turbulent "tide" of dark blue wind blades, and appeared behind the Green Thorn Queen Bee.

"The desperate situation is frozen!"

Ronan held the sword in both hands, and the dark blue cold current overflowed from under his sword like the northern lights.

At this moment, he was the source of the deep cold. The rolling cold current enveloped the Green Thorn Queen Bee layer by layer with despair.

In the blink of an eye, all the deep blue color in a range disappeared, leaving only two colors of blue and white rolling intertwined.

A huge green-thorned hurricane queen turned into a crystal clear ice sculpture. Ronan pressed down hard with both hands, and the nightmare sword wrapped with spell-breaking flames penetrated into the ice sculpture like cutting tofu.

"Bang!"

The moment the long sword pierced the body of Queen Bee, Ronan seemed to feel a violent tremor coming from under the sword.

He firmly pressed the hilt of the Nightmare tungsten steel sword with both hands. The Despair Field was opened to the maximum, and the billowing cold air kept pouring out. At the same time, he kept trying to thrust the edge of the sword deeper into the place. .

The terrifying energy field boiled and roared, and the thick ice made an overwhelming sound.

Ronan's face was slightly ferocious, and the fiery white flames all over his body were flowing and beating wildly, and the terrifying physical power belonging to the "Innocuous Body" was pressing down wave by wave.

But the ice layer that serves as the "seal" can no longer hold on.

"Crack!"

"Boom!" With a loud explosion, the huge ice sculpture exploded, turning into countless shards of frost and snow flying everywhere.

The dark green color swept across the sky again, and the Green Thorn Queen Bee reappeared and let out an angry scream. The wings behind it vibrated at a high frequency as if it had completely turned into two clouds of blue mist. Suddenly, a large amount of wind energy particles gathered, Countless spikes formed by wind beams appeared out of thin air like spears, piercing Ronan from all directions and angles.

Ronan's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously raised his sword to resist, while his body made continuous evasive movements in an instant.

Just when he used the Nightmare Tungsten Steel Long Sword and the spell-breaking flame to sweep away the wind beam, and wanted to retreat and fly back
"Buzz——"

The furious Green Thorn Queen Bee suddenly twisted her body into a twist-like posture, and the dark green spikes on the end of her tail stabbed Ronan like lightning at an extremely abrupt and incredible angle.

The distance was so close that Ronan had no time to dodge, and even raising his sword to resist was extremely reluctant. This was an attack that exceeded his instinctive reaction, and the speed was too fast for anyone to react.

"Dang! Dong——"

Ronan's body was directly penetrated by dark green spikes in mid-air, followed by the Green Thorn Queen Bee's tail flick, and he was thrown away like a cannonball
"Boom!"

The rock wall on one side of the valley collapsed, and rolling rocks and ice and snow fell down, raising huge clouds of mud and ice dust.

A figure staggered through the dust and mist, and walked out from the collapsed rubble with a sword.

At this time, Ronan's handsome face was completely pale, and he was covering his upper left abdomen with one hand, his face looking as ugly as possible.

He slowly raised his left hand that was covering the injury and saw that the first-order standard robe distributed by the magic circle was torn with a huge gap.

Underneath, bright red blood continued to seep out like spring water, and a shocking wound that penetrated from front to back appeared before his eyes.

pain!
Heartbreaking pain!
The toxin carried on the tail stinger of the Blue Thorn Queen Bee and the pain caused by the wound itself almost made Ronan almost faint from the pain.

The white light ball in the chest is consumed rapidly, releasing a large amount of vitality to quickly suppress the spread of toxins in the wound and promote the healing of the injury.

Ronan's face was as white as paper, and his forehead and temples were covered with dense cold sweat.

Looking at the location of the wound, there was a strong look of lingering fear in his eyes.

He felt that he had full cards and could not be afraid of the second level, but he never thought that the real second level was so terrifying.

With just a little carelessness, he might have completely confessed here today.

As long as the wound goes up just a little bit, it may endanger the heart and become a fatal injury.

"How long has it been since it hurt like this?"

"How long has it been since you were so close to death?"

Ronan asked himself.

Looking up, Ronan saw that the Green Thorn Queen Bee who had received a blow from him was obviously not feeling well, and seemed to have entered a frantic state at this time.

Dark blue light was surging all over his body, terrifying auras emerged one after another like a fountain, and massive wind energy particles surrounded it.

With the Green Thorn Queen Bee at the center, an unspeakably terrifying tornado hurricane was rapidly taking shape in the valley.
The strong wind made Ronan's broken silver robe rustle.

"Give it a try...I still have a chance."

He took a deep breath and subconsciously held the sword in his hand tighter, without any thoughts of escaping.

Ronan's eyes flashed with light, and he was about to take action again, when suddenly...
The pain from the abdominal wound made him look inexplicably startled.

He lowered his head, looked at the injury on his abdomen, and unconsciously recalled the previous conversations between himself and Benigo -
-
"As long as you defeat one of them, all problems will be solved. ”
-
“Is it possible?”

Is it possible?
This time, the question seems to have an answer.

"When I fought Laura, I had just entered the first level. I had no condensed talisman, and I hadn't even learned a single first-level spell. I was more than twenty times weaker than I am now. I still had the courage to give it a try, but now I'm starting to have doubts. and timid?"

"[Ascetic Exercise] has broken through to the master level. Practicing the thirteen postures and movements no longer increases my proficiency. The lack of painful whipping in my daily life has caused my will to also deteriorate?"

"From the time I entered the Dharma Circle to now, I have been experiencing all kinds of hesitations, worries, apprehensions, looking forward and backward, and being timid!"

"so me"

Ronan held the hilt of the sword with both hands, faced the hurricane blowing from the front, squinted his eyes, and asked himself word by word.

"What are you afraid of?!"

Suddenly, his eyes glowed with an unprecedented brilliance.

At this moment, Ronan felt that all the dust that had inadvertently fallen on his soul was once again washed away.

His entire being shone like a clean mirror.

He inhaled gently, and the figure holding the sword rose into the air, soaring up until he reached a position above the Green Thorn Queen Bee.

The manic and twisted figure of the Queen Bee was reflected in the azure blue eyes, and her whispering voice was scattered by the wind.

"but."

"It's just a few stronger second-level ones."

After saying that, countless mysterious energies surged out of Ronan's body, instantly intertwining into a majestic and terrifying force of the law.

The gathering of hundreds of pure black particles distorted the light falling from the top of the valley, like a black torrent falling from the sky, powerful and flowing straight down
Under this terrifying torrent, a The figure holding the sword ran across the waves and fell like a shooting star.

Wherever it passed, a faint blue line of fire stretched straight from high altitude to the bottom of the valley, passing through the hurricane, and also passed through the huge giant bee figure in the hurricane, and finally disappeared into the huge dust waves with a final bang.< br/>A moment later, Ronan walked out of the smoke with a calm face and a long sword in hand, his long silver robe billowing slightly like a cloak.

Behind him was the corpse of the Green Thorn Queen Bee that fell into two pieces from mid-air, as well as the tornado hurricane that quickly dispersed.

Ronan blew out the spell-breaking flames burning on the long sword, and the nightmare tungsten steel melted into his body like water.

After exiting the [Pure Body] state, the white ball of light in the body shrank by about half.

However, the wound on the left abdomen has also healed a lot. It is no longer so shocking and has even begun to scab.

"Should."

Ronan cursed to himself, and then gently pressed the wound with his hand. The severe pain caused the corners of his eyes to twitch slightly, but his body and mind were clear, and he felt like he was reunited with an old friend after a long separation.

He almost forgot.

What had been with him closely for countless days and nights, apart from loneliness, was the pain that penetrated deep into his bones.

"Pain is like the wind, always with me."

Ronan smiled to himself. At this moment, Ronan felt an indescribable sense of relaxation and comfort, as if he had returned to the time when he had just broken out of his old shell and gained a new life.

Maybe this is the so-called access to thoughts.

Ronan turned around and walked back, starting to clean up the body of Queen Bee.

The second-level monster is considered a treasure to him now. It is estimated that he will have to make two trips to move the entire body back.

While cleaning up the body of Queen Bee, Ronan habitually clicked on his character panel to check.

He always felt that after figuring out the answer to the previous question, his mental strength seemed to have increased a bit. When he opened the character panel, he saw that--

The original progress of [Level 1 Official Wizard (39%)] has become 45%, a full 6% increase in one breath.

"This is worth how many bottles of mental power-enhancing potions..."

Ronan couldn't help but sigh that the source of the increase in mental power was the increase in soul power. With his current soul power strength, it was estimated that it was enough to condense the second [Silverization] talisman.

Once the [Silverization] talisman is successfully condensed, his strength will be greatly improved.

While he was in a good mood, Ronan glanced at the content at the bottom of the panel inadvertently.

"Crack-"

The Green Thorn Queen Bee's leg he was holding in his hand fell to the ground, and Ronan was stunned on the spot.

He thought he was dazzled, so he checked it several times before finally confirming that he had seen it correctly.

Then a surge of excitement and joy that far exceeded before emerged from Ronan's eyes.

I saw that in the skill column, the proficiency level (Master 1/1600) behind [Ascetic Body Training] that was "immovable for ten thousand years" has now become (Master 5/1600).
It's inexplicable. It went up four points? !
“How did it increase? Because of what?”

After the surprise, Ronan immediately fell into thinking.

He almost subconsciously focused his gaze on the wound on his left abdomen.

"Is it because of the injury?!"
