Merlin went back to the room, sat down in front of the fireplace, and added some firewood to the fireplace. Under the blazing fire, he narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking over and over again in his mind just now with Truya. A fight scene.
This Trouya is a true elemental swordsman. He is definitely much more powerful than Cadolon and Mei Xue. He is almost comparable to the Peror swordsman. However, in the confrontation just now, Merlin did not suffer. Even in pure power, he suppressed Truya.
"The body of the elemental swordsman has been improved by the elements all the year round. Even if he does not specifically exercise his body, his physical quality will be several times stronger than that of ordinary people. However, I can suppress the opponent in terms of strength..."
Thinking of this, Merlin's mood couldn't help stirring up. When he first came to this world, he was envious of those who had element affinity and the powerful power they could have.
And now, relying on the mysterious relief, he can finally have the power not inferior to these elemental swordsmen.
However, Merlin is also very clear that Truya did not do his best just now. The real strength of the elemental swordsman is not its power, but the explosive power of the element. Just now, Truya did not stimulate the power of the element.
"Truya didn't have the violent power to stimulate the elements, but why did I try my best? Just now I only used five points of strength to suppress the opponent. Even if Trua stimulated the power of the elements, I didn't miss it. The power of a fight!"
Merlin was very eager in his heart, but he wanted to compete with a real elemental swordsman.
After sitting in front of the fireplace for an hour, old Aita had not come back. Merlin was also a little bored waiting, so he stood up and walked to the room where old Aita kept antiques.
No one bothered me this time, and Merlin entered the room smoothly.
The room has a damp, dull smell, and because there is no ventilation for a long time, it will make people a little stuffy.
Merlin looked at it casually, and then set his eyes on the giant eye oil painting hanging on the wall. After a while, Merlin came to the oil painting, raised his head slightly, and stared intently at the giant eye oil painting.
The more he looked at it, the more strange Merlin felt, as if the whole room had become gloomy and cold.
Like last time, Merlin felt that the surroundings were gradually darkening, and he could only see a giant eye, which seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, forming a vortex, as if he was going to suck himself in.
But this time, Merlin was already prepared. He bit his tongue fiercely. The pain woke him up instantly. When he looked around, he was still in the room, and the oil painting on the wall had not changed.
"Weird, there is something odd about this painting."
Merlin murmured in a low voice. It was just a while ago, but he felt a little heavy in his head, he seemed very tired, and he didn't know when a cold sweat broke out all over his body.
This painting was collected by the old man Aita. Merlin felt that the old man Aita also had a secret. He had been here for nine days, and he didn't know what the old man Aita was doing mysteriously all day long.
Suddenly, Merlin's expression changed slightly. He heard footsteps under the stairs outside the door. It must be old Aita who came back. Thinking of this, Merlin didn't dare to stay in this room any longer, and hurriedly left the room.
"boom".
The door was slammed shut, and old Aita saw Merlin in the room,
Wei Wei was taken aback and said, "Merlin, why are you here?"
Merlin saw that Aita was wearing a pair of long leather boots on his feet, covered with some dirt, and a coat on his body was also covered with some dew, his face was slightly pale, and he looked tired. I don't know what he did.
"Mr. Aita, I'm here to ask for leave from the teacher. I may have to deal with family matters in the afternoon, so I won't come this afternoon."
Merlin looked at the old man Aita, to Merlin's surprise, the old man Aita did not look angry, but seemed very calm. After a long time, the old man Aita nodded and said calmly: "I'm going to go out these days, so your studies may have to stop for a while."
Merlin was a little surprised. Old Aita usually seemed to be very leisurely. What would happen?
"When will Teacher Aita come back?"
"I'm not sure, maybe three or five days, maybe ten and a half months, but you have to remember that even if I'm not here, you have to practice Morta script well. I have some experience on learning Morta script here. Some translations of You and Guangming characters were compiled by me a few years ago, and you can use them to figure out for yourself, it should help you improve your understanding of Morta characters."
The old man Aita immediately took out a thick stack of documents and handed them over to Merlin.
Merlin was a little stunned. These materials are not simple. Isn't this equivalent to a dictionary from a previous life? And it was also recorded by old Aita one by one, which is very precious. In this era, these things alone can be regarded as invaluable treasures. Although old Aita is usually strict, he still attaches great importance to Merlin.
"Teacher, don't worry, I will definitely practice Morta writing at home."
After all, Merlin took the documents and turned around to leave.
"and many more……"
The old man Aita's face changed and he finally seemed to have made up his mind. He took out a black ring from his arms and threw it directly to Merlin. He said solemnly: "This little thing is given to you, it's not in vain for you. Call me 'teacher'."
"Teacher, this..."
Merlin was a little hesitant, but the old man Aita immediately waved his hand and said with an impatient look: "Go, go, do whatever you need to do, I'm a little tired and want to rest."
The old man Aita was not polite at all, and threw Merlin out of the house.
Merlin went downstairs, got into the carriage, and put the documents on the carriage. He is still a little stunned. He always feels that something is wrong with old Aita today. He is sending documents and a ring.
"Old Aita is mysterious and weird all day, and he doesn't know what happened? But this ring is really strange, it looks like some years..."
This black ring, I don't know what material it is, it is as light as nothing in the hand, the whole body is black, and it is also engraved with a ferocious monster with three heads, which is full of fangs and claws.
No one would like to wear such a ring on their hands.
Merlin played it carefully for a while, but didn't find anything special, so he put the ring in his pocket and said to Moss, "Moss, go to Anson's."
The carriage slowly left Old Aita's small building and drove towards Ansen's house.
