Chapter 312 Bazel's Dad
Enter the [Mermaid],
The sky is clear and the warm sea breeze with a salty taste blows on the body, feeling very comfortable.
The recent trip has been very smooth, and we didn’t even encounter bad weather.
The sailors and mercenaries on the entire [Mermaid] relaxed and enjoyed the rare good time.
There was a circle of people lying on the deck sunbathing, and a lazy atmosphere surrounded the boat. Seeing this, Lauren had no intention of stopping.
After all, these will be the backbone of the Milne Chamber of Commerce's expansion of shipping routes. I had a fierce battle with a pirate ship a few days ago, and I really need to rest and relax.
But in this relaxed atmosphere, there is a little figure who is a little out of place.
At the very front of the deck, a petite and cute figure stood there, holding a long sword in his hand, struggling to maintain balance.
Looking carefully, her white forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her thin arms were still shaking slightly. It was obvious that she had been holding on for a long time.
This little figure who is maintaining the basic posture is Helen, who has become a disciple of Li Si and is preparing to embark on the path of transcendence.
After Li Si accepted Helen that day, he did not directly start teaching Helen about warrior martial arts or other skills. Instead, he taught her a few postures and asked Helen to start with physical exercise.
After all, Helen's body is still too weak now. The pain and torture she experienced before made Helen's physical development obviously slower than that of children of the same age. Although she has made up for it during this time, she is still There are shortcomings.
Starting to learn warrior training and martial arts rashly would be detrimental to her growth.
First polish your body and train your will, and then talk about other things.
The sweat on Helen's forehead kept falling. She tried her best to steady the sword in her hand. As time passed, the shaking of the sword in her hand continued to increase.
At the beginning, the sailors and mercenaries on the [Mermaid] watched Helen exercising with great interest, and laughed and bet on how long Helen could last.
But in the past few days, Helen's performance made everyone put away their smiles of watching the show, and began to admire this cute little girl's persistence.
I am following that adult, but I can endure this kind of hardship.
As expected, you cannot underestimate the people around Mr. Li Si!
Everyone consciously gave up the space on the bow of the boat to Helen and did not disturb her exercise.
Bazel sat aside, leaning against the side of the ship, holding a wine bottle in his arms, taking a sip of wine from time to time, but his attention was always on Helen.
Li Si asked him to follow Helen, and he would naturally not go anywhere else.
Helen's current exercise is very simple, and Bazel can also take good care of it, so Li Si naturally saves this effort.
“Have a break.”
Bazel held the wine in his hand preciously and said to Helen.
Li Si took out this bottle of wine and gave it to him so that he could watch Helen's exercise.
Bazel likes drinking very much, but the first moment he opened the cork, the aroma of wine that hit his face suddenly attracted his attention.
Damn, it’s so profitable to follow a boss like this!
Satisfied Bazel will naturally work hard so that he can get better rewards from Li Si.
Seeing Helen's swaying body almost unable to stand, Bazel frowned slightly.
As a silver-level assassin, he naturally had this kind of time to polish his foundation.
But that kind of suffering was quite unbearable, and he persevered because of his father's "care".
I originally thought that taking care of Helen would be a similar process, but I didn’t expect that Helen’s consciousness and enthusiasm were so high. He didn’t need his supervision at all. Instead, he had to be careful not to hurt her body by over-exercising.
Bazel stood up, took the sword from Helen's hand, and said helplessly:
"I've told you how many times, it's easy to get injured while exercising like this. You've already been training very hard, there's no need for this."
Helen, who had the sword snatched from her hand, seemed to have some kind of emotion. He woke up from his immersion, sat down on the deck, raised his sweaty face, and said sheepishly:
"Sorry, Uncle Bazel."
"I just want to try how far I can persist."
"Who are you kidding?"
Although Bazel felt that being called uncle was a bit too much, he couldn't say the words to ask Helen to call him brother, so he could only add helplessly:
"How can anyone challenge his limits every day? "
"Master Li Si should have told you that this kind of thing cannot be rushed. It will only be effective if you lay a good physical foundation and challenge the limits."
" Yes, I know!”
Helen nodded seriously and collapsed on the deck with a bang, obviously no longer having any strength.
Bazel didn't care. Since he wanted to become a transcendent, he naturally couldn't be so squeamish.
Of course, this was what Li Si had explained in advance, otherwise Bazel would not have dared to do this.
Let her rest for a while and move her back to the cabin later.
In the evening, Li Si will treat Helen and recover from the trauma on her body, so Bazel doesn’t have to worry about it.
"Uncle Bazelle"
Helen's little voice suddenly sounded.
“What’s wrong?”
“Uncle Bazel, are you very powerful?”
Helen asked in a low voice.
“Why do you say that?”
Bazel, who was holding the wine bottle, was a little interested and asked.
“Because I heard that Lord Li Si only kept you on that pirate ship.”
“And in the competition in the past few days, I don’t think anyone can beat you. "
Helen's whole body was sore now, so she had to lie on the deck obediently.
“Oh, maybe, because I am special?”
Bazel smiled to himself and took a swig of wine.
"Uncle Bazel, how did you become so powerful?"
Helen asked curiously. Ever since she decided to become an extraordinary professional, she wanted to know more about professions. thing.
But Master Li Si rarely talked about those things with her, and only asked her to keep exercising.
“Haha.”
Bazel smiled bitterly, seeming to remember the unpleasant past before leaving home.
I don’t know what happened, but he suddenly felt the desire to talk to Helen in front of him.
"My strength is all developed under the supervision of my father."
"My father is very strong, very strong!"
"But also very stubborn!"
Bazel leaned his head gently against the side of the ship, looking at the blue sky and the seagulls flying past from time to time. His eyes were blurred and he said softly:
"I have always felt that my father is too strict with me. He doesn’t let me do this, and he doesn’t let me do that either.”
“The most important thing is that he hardly lets me leave his sight and can only stay at home all day long.”
“Numbly exercising my body, honing my skills, and improving my strength.”
“It’s painful, really!”
Bazel turned back, looked at Helen, and said with a smile:
“So when I saw you starting to exercise, I was still thinking about when you would give up.”
“But You are better than me. If I was lazy at that time, that's for sure."
"What about Uncle Bazel?"
Helen then asked, There seems to be a hint of heaviness in Bazel's narrative.
"Dad is very strong. Even before I left home, I never defeated him once."
"But it's strange. I don't know why. Dad's body is always injured. Sometimes He would even vomit blood secretly while avoiding me, and I didn’t even notice the slightest movement of him fighting with others.”
“But I wasn’t sensible at the time, and I didn’t care about it. On the contrary,” Bazel was silent for a moment. , seems somewhat difficult to export.
“On the contrary, I resented him.”
"I hate why he is so harsh on me and why he doesn't let me play with my friends."
"I can only exercise, exercise, exercise, and exercise boringly on the sidelines. There seems to be nothing else in my life." ”
“Then one day I couldn’t bear it anymore. I heard from traveling merchants that becoming a mercenary was a very thrilling thing.”
“That richness. The colorful adventure attracted me immediately."
"So, one night after that, I secretly hid from my father and ran away."
"Weren't you arrested by your father? Didn't you say he was very strong?"
Helen asked curiously.
“Strong, very strong.”
Bazel sighed a little, and then said:
“I will never forget that night, I have escaped before , but they were all captured by him, but I managed to escape for more than a hundred meters that night without being knocked unconscious by my father.”
"I was so excited that I was ready to run away from the village."
"When I looked back, I found that the door of my house was opened, with a warm light flashing inside, and my dad was there. He stood at the door and looked at me quietly."
"I was frightened and thought I was going to be caught again, so I ran away quickly."
"I ran away for I don’t know how long. Dad never showed up.”
“Now that I think about it, maybe Dad let me go that night.”
"Yeah."
Helen tried hard to raise her head and looked at Bazel.
"Later I found out that I have always had bad luck, and the people with me were all unlucky, and many of them even died."
Bazel's face Showing a smile, he added:
“Just like that pirate ship.”
"So, I'm wondering if dad's injuries are because of me?"
"Yeah."
Helen nodded repeatedly. To be honest, she didn't understand Ba. What did Zell mean by bad luck.
Bazel didn't care either, and he didn't bother to explain it carefully to Helen.
He has been hiding these things in his heart. At this time, he just wants to find someone to talk to, whether she understands or not.
"Uncle Bazel, I think your father must be very proud, right?"
Helen's clear voice came to Bazel's ears.
“Huh?”
“Because, your father must have thought that you were good enough, so he asked you to leave home.”
“I think you are already good enough. Able to face the risks outside alone.”
Helen said seriously, but she thought of her mother in her heart.
“Haha, maybe.”
Bazel smiled.
Perhaps because Li Si promised to help him get rid of the bad luck that was entangled in him, Bazel's whole person seemed to be much brighter.
Looking at the white clouds in the sky, Bazel felt much better for some reason.
When you break through gold, go back and see your dad!
Bazel made up his mind.
On the other side,
A disgraced Li Si was walking out of the cabin that had been transformed into a temporary magic workshop, casually using the [Cleaning Technique] to remove the stains on his body.
Open the door to let fresh air enter the workshop and take away the smoke generated by the explosion.
"Failed again."
Li Si was in a calm mood and didn't pay much attention.
Failure is the mother of success!
A mage cannot succeed without thousands of mothers.
I just tried to make other magic props and failed. The other materials were fine, but I lost a little mithril, which made Li Si feel a little heartbroken.
Li Si wanted to try to make some magic equipment and props that he could use, but the process was quite difficult.
Although he is a silver-level arcanist, ordinary magic props and equipment are of little help.
With Li Si’s rich hoard, perhaps only top-grade silver and other props would be meaningful.
That is not as easy as making [Siren Earrings]. It is still far away from Li Si's current level.
Li Si could only patiently explore bit by bit.
Even with the inheritance of the two legendary arcanists Stephens and Sphinx, Li Si's daily progress can be seen with the naked eye. Another person would probably have to blindly figure it out.
Li Si stood outside the door for a while, adjusting his mentality.
Let’s put this aside later and play with the spell model first!
It’s like studying in a previous life. If you get confused when studying mathematics, change your thinking to chemistry.
“Lord Li Si!”
Just when Li Si was about to continue his happy research, a voice interrupted Li Si.
Li Si looked back and said with a smile:
"What's the matter, Eivar, is there something wrong?"
Eivar, the official mercenary who walked towards Li Si, at this time There was a hint of excitement on his face.
"Lord Li Si, we are almost reaching the sea area of the island in my memory. I have a vague feeling."
"Oh?"
Of course Li Si will not forget the island that Aivar mentioned to him, or he is very interested in that place.
Just stop studying, Li Si walked outside.
“Let’s go, point me in the direction, let’s go have a look together.”
“Okay.”
Aivar also looked forward to it. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Stepping onto the deck and standing at the highest point, Aivar closed his eyes and sensed for a while, then pointed in the southeast direction of the [Mermaid].
"It should be over here, there is something attracting my body there."
"Okay."
Li Si put his right hand on Eivar's shoulder, and instantly The figures of the two disappeared from the same place, and the other sailors and mercenaries were no longer surprised.
Recently, Li Si often leaves the ship to experiment with spells on the sea not far away. They have seen this kind of scene a lot.
On the sea more than ten kilometers southeast, the figures of Li Si and Aivar appeared there, flying in mid-air.
“Here?”
Aivar closed his eyes and sensed it, shook his head and said:
“We have to go south.”
"Okay."
Li Si nodded, and in an instant he used [Teleportation] again to take Aivar away from the place.
After moving twice more, Aivar said loudly:
“This is it!”
Li Si lowered his head and looked down, and all he saw was a slight wave. blue sea.
