105. Coach, I want to learn this!(1/2)
“The so-called trial of the wilderness is very similar to the trial of the shadow you are an assassin.
It is a ritual that novices perform after mastering the primary hunting skills to prove their understanding and understanding of the way of hunting.”
At midnight in Thorbarard, in the dark Snakeman Forest in the middle of the island's North Island, Lileza Windrunner is conducting his first Ranger training for Black.
She was still dressed as a high elf general, but because she left the Nagfal, her ghost body became weak and transparent.
But the cursed elf gold coins hanging on her neck gave her the ability to leave the ghost ship for a short time.
In this dead forest, Black was wearing leather armor that was easy to move, without any other equipment, and was holding a hurricane hunting bow and a bag of snake man bone arrows.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, following Lileza's guidance, feeling the breath of life around him.
General Ranger stood on the stone beside Ranger, his tone was cold and stern, as if he was back in the scene when she was training elite recruits of the Far Traveler at the Tower of Wind Walker.
She said to the long-lasting pirate:
"Many newbies like you will think that the symbolic significance of the wilderness ritual is greater than the actual significance, which is an extremely wrong understanding!
Just like you have learned many skills of Rangers, but you do not understand the true power of Rangers' Way.
Is our power just to draw a bow and shoot an arrow, or put a lead bullet into the chamber and pull the trigger? No, any child can do this.
But children holding bows and arrows are not qualified to call themselves a ranger or hunter.
You have a great hunting talent, which may be due to your training and killing as an assassin, but you still need to learn, and I will train you intensified over the next period of time.
Let’s start by truly understanding the way of hunting.
The first thing you need to remember is that our strength comes from the earth under your feet, from the environment you are in, from the lives that help you fight or are hostile to you."
Lileza stopped, and she observed Black's current state, very satisfied with his concentration and calmness at this moment.
She continued:
"In Cardore's culture, hunters and druids are the two professions that are closest to nature. The only difference is that the former maintains the balance of nature through killing, while the latter makes good use of the power of nature.
The power of the hunter is not as gorgeous as a spellcaster as a spellcaster, but the power of the hunter is not leaking its edge, but it is the foundation for supporting the prosperity of the Moon God Kingdom for thousands of years.
The first half of the Way of Rangers lies in your skills and talents, and after entering the advanced level, the test is your fit and closeness with nature.
You have to understand this, you have to respect nature and life, so that they will in turn help you.
The best hunter of the Sentinel Legion, a legendary ranger like Sandys Yuyue, will naturally assist her when chasing her. Although she cannot sneak like an assassin.
But she also didn't need a shadowy suit.
With your current skills, once you are locked by the legendary hunter, even if the shadow tries its best to protect you, your ending will be dead."
"That's really desperate."
The pirate with his eyes closed replied dryly. He kept making his senses sharper and asked again:
"So what about the Wild Trial? Can you give me a detailed introduction? Master Tutor."
"Of course, I'm about to say this, you have to listen carefully."
The ghost of the Ranger touched the cursed gold coins hanging on her neck. She felt the various sounds in the forest and the various changes in the environment.
She adjusted her breathing as if she was alive, saying:
"The Hunter's Way has many schools, each one is good at different combat methods. Unlike the Assassin's trial that approaches the mystery of the shadow, another significance of the trial of the wilderness is that this trial will determine the power style you will pursue in the future."
"Strength style? Like the solitary wind walker?"
Black asked:
"I heard from a friend that, compared to the bonds of wild beasts, the rangers of the Wind Walker family trust the bows and arrows in their hands more?"
“It’s true.”
Liresa nodded and explained:
“But that’s not just that.
The reason why the Wind Walker family specializes in ejaculation for generations is because of the legendary battle bow ‘Sarados’ held by our ancestor, the first Ranger General of Silver Moon City, Taranas Wind Walker.
It was a battle bow created for my ancestors by the great Dasrema Sun Chaser when Silvermoon City was just established.
It means "the courage of the forest". It was born to protect the land where the tribesmen live.
That is also the eternal mission of the Wind Walker family.
But because the legendary battle bow is powerful, every generation of Wind Walkers must go through years of rigorous training and inject all their energy into the study of shooting techniques in order to exert all the power of that holy object.
The Wind Walkers gave up their persistence in the wilderness bonds, which was also due to the helplessness of their mission.”
As she spoke, the eyes of Fengxingzhe's mother fell on the claws of the soul beast parading in the snake man forest not far away. She said with an appreciation and regretful tone:
“On the other hand, before the Wind Walker family followed His Majesty Dasrema Sun Chaser and traveled to Quelthalas, my family also had a tradition of finding noble beasts to form bonds.
After all, the inheritance of the Wind Walker family can be traced back to the ancient Elves Empire, and my ancestors were also the best royal hunters under Empress Azshara.
Unfortunately, since the establishment of the Sun Well, the magic power has penetrated into Quel'thalas, making my country prosperous, and making it difficult for the beasts there to receive natural blessings.
The family's inherited beast taming technique has been lost for thousands of years.
This has to be said, a pity.
You are really lucky that my disciple Black, who was able to be favored by such a noble beast when he was still weak."
"Is it noble? Lucky? I don't think it's almost annoying me."
Black whispered with a Versailles-like superiority:
"It doesn't listen to my orders and ignores my instructions. It's fine, but it's not good to be greedy and has high demands on food, even comparable to the sorcerers' desire for precious souls.
I really didn't expect that as a warlock, I would one day compete with my dog for 'dog food' to eat."
"You need patience, Black."
Fengxingzhe's mother stroked the braid on her chest and said softly:
"This is the basic law of the Beast King's Way. Any hunter who embarks on the Beast King's path must regard his animal companions as comrades, companions and family members.
You must learn to use the perception of wild beasts to help you better understand nature and life. You must trust them, fight side by side with them, help discover their potential, and grow with your own war beasts.
This is also a way to try the wilderness.
But it's harsh.
Because once the wilderness bond is achieved, it means that both parties are blessed by their lives. If the war beast or the master dies in battle, the other party will suffer a terrible backlash.
That kind of backlash is not only at the physical level, but also at the soul level. Therefore, there are many hunters who can embark on the path of the Beast King, but very few can persevere until the end.
If you want to walk this path, you have to be mentally prepared.”
The mother of Wind Walker glanced at Black who was thinking about something beside her, and finally said:
"In addition to Rangers and Beast Kings, there is also the most difficult form of wilderness trials, which is the style of integrating Rangers and Beast Kings.
It is very similar to the hunting method of orc hunters. While accompanying combat beasts, it is also good at honing one's own combat skills. It is good at using various weapons and traps, and is a master of wilderness combat.
It is also the top hunter who can be nurtured by the way of hunting...
Alas, looking at your shiny eyes, I know that you have to choose this most difficult trial path, right? My disciple."
"Well, it sounds like it's for me."
Black grabbed the battle bow at his hand, stood up, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Lileza Windrunner:
"Coach...uh, no, mentor, please tell me to go on this wilderness trial path!"
"It's not me who teaches you, but you choose yourself in the trial of the wilderness."
Fengxingzhe's mother shook her head and said in a stressful tone:
"But I want to tell you in advance, my disciple.
The essence of the wilderness trial is to show your tenacity, courage and indomitableness to the ubiquitous life force. Life is also one of the six major forces. Its power will not be weaker than arcane, evil, or shadows.
It is real, but difficult to perceive.
The wilderness trial is a ritual that allows you to clearly perceive the power of life.
But if you want to choose this difficult road and want to satisfy your performance in the ritual, it will be as difficult as climbing to heaven.
As far as I know, in the past history, even the legendary night elves had few successful people. Even the most famous one was only able to accomplish this feat under the blessings of many wilderness demigods.
His name is..."
"Hun Gaoling!"
Black snapped his fingers and said:
"I know him, the most powerful legendary hunter ever, the hero among hunters. To be honest, the mentor, that brave tauren is one of my idols.
Although the stories he passed down have many bragging elements.
But the Taurus Taurus, who had indeed taken his legendary beast Alot in the ancient battle, killed the demons in a defeated army and fled in the wind.
He has also personally killed more than one legendary demon."
"Do you still know the name of Hun Gaoling's battle pet? It seems that you know a lot of things, my disciple."
