"Wait a minute, I was just talking and forgot to teach you the Holy Waterfall meditation method." Homer floated towards Elaine and reminded her, "This is an epic meditation method, which is very suitable for your soul tree. You
Experience it for yourself!”
After Homer deployed a soundproof barrier to block all prying eyes, he taught Elaine the meditation method and told her to pay attention to a few key points.
"Where have you been?" Downton couldn't help but ask when he saw Jackson wandering around furtively.
"Patrol!" Jackson lied straight out of his mouth, and there was no flaw in his demeanor. He didn't dare to tell his owner that he had gone to clean up a trouble.
Of course, he kept those golden tickets as rewards.
"Forget it, let's go!" Downton waved his hand. This guy is a lazy guy who is waiting to die and is content with the status quo. He would rather lie on the steps boringly and bask in the sun every day than practice. He is too lazy to do it.
It takes a lot of effort.
After swallowing the expensive magic lake beads, Elaine began to advance to the next level. Compared to Downton, who was born in a wild way, she knew how to do it better as she had a professional background.
The abundant energy contained in the lake beads surged out, irrigating the soul tree and allowing it to grow. Elaine kept her mind close to her heart and silently recited calming poems to get rid of the pain.
Elaine running up the stairs is like a ball of warm sunshine, giving onlookers a sense of peace and comfort.
"It is indeed a soul tree with sacred attributes!" Homer exclaimed, the sacred element was so rich that it gushed out like a fountain.
"Your meditation method is not fake, is it? Why are there no visions?" Different from the green magic energy spots that appeared when Downton absorbed it, he found that the ones floating around Elaine were all white spots.
"Don't worry, she's not familiar with it yet. She'll get better in a while." Homer comforted Downton.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, those white light spots turned into light clusters. They gathered on top of Elaine's head, and then melted into a pool of spring water. When the concentration reached the limit, it poured on her body like a waterfall.
.
"Compared to the vortex meditation method, the efficiency is indeed much faster." Elaine opened her eyes, applied a shield to herself, and quickly retreated towards the stands.
The elemental giant appeared and began to attack her.
"Tsk tsk, her running position is good. It seems that she has undergone a lot of actual combat training." Homer praised, "Celeste, pay attention to her response."
St. George's School arranges a large number of wilderness survival trial courses every year, allowing students to explore some ruins, monster lairs, etc., just to avoid teaching some nerds.
Under the attack of the elemental giant, Elaine was still able to do it with ease. She could always avoid the attack in time. Sometimes in order to save magic energy, she would not even open the shield and rely on running to dodge. As for counterattack, as a priest,
Her attack methods are too few, so she can only sigh in despair.
This is probably her only shortcoming.
Ten minutes later, Elaine returned to Downton without even a hair being injured.
"Thank you!" Celes handed over a kettle.
"Your performance puts me under so much pressure!" Downton complained. Not only did he compete at the lowest level, he was also the most seriously injured.
"Aren't you asking for trouble when you have a hard-working engineer profession compared with other legal professions?" Homer teased, "Since Elaine has no physical problems, then replenish your magic energy and keep up the good work."
"Um!"
Elaine took the star-colored sea urchin cut by Homer. While eating, she walked to the center of the arena.
"Uh, she's so strong!" Celes covered her lips, feeling so sick that she felt like vomiting.
In order not to eat the sea urchin, she even planned to throw it away secretly. But for Elaine, it was an extremely rare treasure. No matter how unpalatable it was, she would swallow it.
Elaine, who has lived a hard life since childhood, understands that if you are not willing to endure hardship, you will not be able to grasp happiness.
Elaine advanced to the next level, and the whole process was still without any surprises or dangers. She passed it peacefully and peacefully. There was nothing I could do about it. What the priest was good at was blessing various beneficial magics.
If Elaine is willing, she can be blessed with ten shields of different types. She can stand there and let the elemental giants bombard her. It will take several seconds before the shield is broken.
In the process, it was enough for her to cast a new shield.
"It is indeed the most powerful auxiliary profession. I understand why those adventure groups always pay high prices to recruit priests." Downton said with emotion, an excellent priest can increase a team's combat effectiveness and endurance several times.
"It's late, go home!" After Elaine finished climbing the stairs, Downton walked to the carriage laughing and chatting with them. As for the administrator who didn't show up, he had long forgotten about it.
"I want to go to the night market." Hutao pulled Downton's sleeve and looked at him pitifully like an abandoned kitten.
Celes also looked at Downton expectantly.
"Okay, but don't run around." Downton remembered that he hadn't bought gifts for his sister and Celes for a long time, so he agreed to Hu Tao's proposal.
Putting aside all thoughts, Downton and the three girls played wildly all night, and did not return to the hotel until the night market closed.
"Are you going to tire me out?"
Downton sat on the chair and gasped for air. Shopping with the girl was more tiring than running up the stairs.
"Let's go try on clothes!" Elaine rolled her eyes at Downton and pulled Celes towards the bedroom. The two ghouls behind them were covered with large and small bags, all of which were tonight's harvest.
In fact, Elaine only bought one dress worth more than a dozen silver coins, and Celes bought the rest. As the most beloved princess of the king of Xueman Empire, she had never considered the issue of gold coins before, and she fell in love with it while shopping.
Whatever, just point a finger and a maid will take care of it immediately.
Half an hour later, Elaine came back with a dressed-up Celes.
Wearing a blue and white Victorian-style court dress, the Death Banshee stood in front of Downton, looking very shy. She lowered her head and twisted her two fingers together.
"Very beautiful!" Downton praised.
"I believe she is Princess Xueman, otherwise she is at least a girl from a noble family!" Elaine leaned into Downton's ear and whispered in a low voice.
Celes' speech, walking, eating, etiquette in treating others, etc. all naturally reveal an elegant and noble atmosphere, which is the aristocratic style that is integrated into her bones.
You must know that Xueman is also an empire that has been inherited for more than 10,000 years. It has a rich heritage. Fourteen years of life as a princess and the best teacher of court etiquette naturally taught the most perfect ladies.
"There is a group of Holy Snow Falcon Knights protecting her. The leader of the group was probably a scepter before he became a death knight. Do you think this kind of girl can be an ordinary person?" Downton thought of Elaine having a brother whose strength is unknown.
The pressure is huge.
Elaine took a breath. There were no more than a hundred knights in the entire continent who could be named "holy". They were a symbol of honor and power.
"I'd better change my clothes!" Celes was embarrassed, turned around and ran away.
"There are also many noble children in our college, including the descendants of Dukes and Marquises, but compared with Celes' temperament, they are just like rubes." Elaine lamented.
"Drankfurt is only a third-rate empire. How many years has it been established? What kind of wealthy family can it cultivate? The Snowman Empire is the strongest among the second-rate countries in the north. It is a powerful country that can compete with Saint Jutland. If it hadn't been for several
The king is too stupid, it can definitely join the ranks of the nine empires."
The Grimoire has existed for tens of thousands of years, and it has witnessed the most powerful moment of the Snowman Empire. It was truly invincible in the north, but it is a pity that it has declined now.
"Quasimodo, Jackson, you go and guard outside." After Celes changed clothes and came back, Downton asked Homer to open the cross-light door leading to the Hive Laboratory.
After Elaine walked curiously, she found darkness in her field of vision and was startled, "Brother, where are you?"
As she spoke loudly, the lights came on.
"Not bad, the lighting system is voice-controlled!" Standing in the twelve-sided hall, Downton was like a master, introducing the layout of the laboratory to Elaine, "My authority is too low, and I can't go to some places.
, but the current facilities are sufficient.”
"What kind of metal is this?" Elaine knocked on the white metal that made up the wall. Her face turned pale when she heard that a poison leak had occurred here and some biochemical monsters had been infected.
"Those are insignificant questions. Just memorize this first and don't get hurt because you are not familiar with the equipment." Element Arm handed a user manual to Elaine.
"Let's go, I'll take you to visit!" Hutao took Elaine's hand and took her around like a treasure.
"Wow, the water purification room, dissection room, sterile culture room, and magic sterilization room are simply more complete and advanced than the potion laboratory in our school that cost tens of millions of gold coins to build!"
Elaine looked at the unnamed equipment in front of her and was filled with emotion. You must know that as an honors student at St. George's, her horizons have been broadened a lot, but there are some things here that she has never even seen before.
"That is an air purification device that can also be used for cooling and heating to ensure that the laboratory can be maintained at an appropriate temperature." Downton explained, "Let's go to the independent laboratory. That is the core of the hive."
"Isn't this the core?" Elaine was stunned. "It's these facilities that the potion masters in our school saw. It would be strange if they didn't rush to grab them."
The four people passed through the spiral staircase and entered the underground corridor. Elaine looked at the blood-stained cells on both sides and the huge monster skeleton tied to the chain. Her expression was calm, and she was much bolder than Celes.
"A hundred-layered magic lock?" Elaine called out, and then looked at the translucent blue tunnel, leaving only deep shock.
"There is even a plane tunnel. Are we going to another plane?" Looking at the turbulent currents that constantly hit the tunnel, Elaine's face turned blue. "Is this place strong?"
"Unless your luck is extremely bad, it will be fine." Downton comforted his sister, then took the lead and walked over.
Twenty minutes later, after visiting the independent laboratory with better equipment, Elaine praised her repeatedly, but it was still a bit unbelievable, "Does such a luxurious laboratory belong to you?"
"Yes, you can use it too!" Downton smiled, "Homer, take them to play, I am going to make a powerful potion this time." (To be continued...)
