Dragon of the Root

Chapter 3: 3 years



In the Land of Shadows...

The sky was still dark, giving people an indescribable feeling. In the quiet forest, it gives people a sense of depression.

Suddenly, there was a rustle.

"Aum~" Then came the roar of a beast. It was just that this voice sounded like the desperate voice of a beast fighting back before it died.

"Polp~" The five meter tall black tiger corpse fell to the ground.

A teenager stood in front of a tiger corpse, he took a spear and carried a spear behind him.

"Hu~ finally finished the task then reported to the teacher." It was exactly Wu Ming who recognized Scathach as a teacher.

At this time, Wu Ming had studied for three years.

Three years ago, Wu Ming spent seven days getting the approval of the World Tree Spear, thus finalizing the weapon design.

Because Wu Ming had no previous experience in martial arts, Wu Ming accidentally changed the shape of his weapon, it was still a long spear.

After that, Scathach first spent a year laying the foundation for Wu Ming "Dragon of the Root" for Wu Ming "Dragon of the Root" physical and magical characteristics. During this year, she also taught Wu Ming the eighteen Priomodial Runes.

As the "Dragon of the Root", Wu Ming had a very high affinity for magic power, and in general, he had a good talent for learning Magecraft.

The skill called magic in another world was called Magecraft in the Type-Moon world, and Magecraft was a phenomenon that transcended common sense. "A common term for artificially reproducing mysterious and miraculous actions." This is a Magecraft evaluation.

The Type-Moon World Magecraft is in an embarrassing position, the more people know about it, the weaker its Magecraft abilities will be. For example fireballs, if everyone knows fireballs, then fireballs can only be used as flames, if only one person knows fireballs, then that person only needs to consume a little magic power to release super-giant fireballs enough to destroy a village.

Of course, the magnitude of the Magecraft power is also related to the magic power it imparts.

Wu Ming spent three years in the Type-Moon world to memorize and master the eighteen Primodial Runes, and by the way, he learned some Celtic languages to communicate with the outside world. Regarding Runes, although Wu Ming said that their use was not proficient, but this level had shocked Scathach.

"You deserve to be the 'Dragon of the Root'," Scathach said then.

In the next two years, Wu Ming continued to absorb the wisdom and martial arts of Scathach. Apart from spear skills, Wu Ming also learned from Scathach how to use other common weapons, such as swords, bows, and shields.

Three years later, Wu Ming could be said to have inherited all of Scathach skills. As a teacher, Scathach began assigning tasks to Wu Ming. The first thing that Wu Ming had to face was a black tiger rank Demon Beast. This is the corpse now.

Wu Ming glanced at the corpse of the black tiger and found that it had turned into fly ash and died with the wind.

"Sure enough, death in the Land of Shadows can't be completely killed, of course." The tiger corpse just now looked like fly ash, but it actually returned to where it used to be. The "dwellers" of the Land of Shadows will never die again. Yes, because they are already dead.

Of course, if there is a method for instant soul or death, they can also be killed.

"Let's go." As if for himself, or as if for someone else, Wu Ming turned and left here.

After a while, Scathach appeared out of thin air, and some of the runes around her disappeared. This was the use of runes that took away the aura of one existence.

"Has he found me? He also from 'Root' after all. It's great to grow like this in three years, my handsome disciple." Scathach seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: "It seems that my wish should be possible."

A few more runes were placed around her, and Scathach disappeared.

"Teacher, I'm back." Wu Ming returned to where he had dropped off earlier. Two wooden houses have been built here. Wu Ming knocked on the door of one of the wooden houses and shouted.

Scathach opened the door, "As expected of Silence, Demon Beasts have no effect on you." Scathach said with a smile.

"Of course, I am the first disciple of the Queen of the Land of Shadows. How could that kitten stop me." Wu Ming pretended to be calm, his expression unchanged, but the pride in his tone was revealed. Moreover, Wu Ming no longer dwelled on the matter of names, only treating him as a name in the Celtic territory.

"Okay, come in for dinner, I have an assignment to give you after dinner." After saying that, Scathach turned and walked into the house.

Even though she was a teacher, Scathach felt more like an older sister to Wu Ming, and Wu Ming had a rare smile on his face.

In the forest, Wu Ming carried his luggage and the World Tree spear. He looked up at the sky and said, "I haven't seen a blue sky for more than three years. I miss him very much."

Wu Ming recalled Scathach words: Now that you continue to stay here, there will be no growth. Starting today, you will go out into the outside world to experience it. I hope you can fulfill my wish when we meet again.

"Even if I had the ability to kill you, I wouldn't kill you, Teacher… Sister Scathach."

In fact, Wu Ming lacked affection, before meeting Scathach, Wu Ming only had one relative which was the old dean. Wu Ming became a problem child because no one around him could accept him, much less after finding out that he was different from everyone else. After the death of the old dean, Wu Ming left the world without hesitation after fulfilling the old dean final wish.

Due to Wu Ming personality problems, both teachers and classmates considered Wu Ming a problem child, and the neighbors in Wu Ming neighborhood did not treat him any better, so Wu Ming didn't have the slightest bit of nostalgia for leaving that world.

However in the past three years of living with Scathach, Wu Ming had experienced different treatment from the old dean. Wu Ming and Scathach were not only the affection between teacher and student, but also the affection of brother and sister.

Scathach also realized that she actually didn't expect Wu Ming, who looked so modern, to be so pure and simple in his heart.

Since it was the first time that he had accepted a disciple, Scathach had not only developed a love for talent, but also a love for his younger brother, Who made Wu Ming heart so pure?

This is the "Dragon of the Root", the stronger it is, the purer it is. He is not far in the world, because he is too pure and unfriendly.

Now that Wu Ming was facing a problem, she didn't know how to deal with it.

"Teacher, you really gave me a great start," Wu Ming said with a wry smile.

"Now then, let's fill your stomach first." After that, Wu Ming went into the depths of the forest.

An hour later, in a cave deep in the forest.

Wu Ming was sitting on a rock, and a fire was burning in front of him. It had some wooden brackets on it that grilled some meat and two big bear paws. The corpse of a giant bear lay outside the cave.

"I remember I've seen bear paws in books before, and I don't know if it's good to bake them."

Poor demon bear Wu Ming actually wanted to go to the depths of the forest to pick some wild fruit. Due to the powerful creatures in the deep forest, the wild fruits are richer and fuller than the outer ones. He didn't expect to meet this demon bear halfway. The demon bear wanted to attack Wu Ming, but it turned into dinner for Wu Ming.

Wu Ming looked outside while cooking: "This bearskin can be used for sleeping."

With this, night falls....

Wu Ming ushered in the first night on a journey of experience.
