This kind of teaching actually brings the teaching scenes in the magic stone to reality. Since there is no time limit, as long as the teacher is not afraid of trouble, he can teach until the comprehender learns it.
However, now that the other party has taught him once, Mu You has only comprehended one ten thousandth of the progress. This is only when the comprehension is successful. There is a probability of failure every time he comprehends. The actual comprehension must be at least tens of thousands of times. It can be seen that this kind of stealing How difficult is it to learn the technique?
Given the extremely limited time of the Divine Magic Stone, it is very likely that it will not be fully understood.
However, Mu You has a pocket watch as a foundation, so he doesn't have such worries. As long as he goes back infinitely, he can learn even the most difficult magical skills in theory.
Of course, he wouldn't really do it. If he really wanted to learn it all at once, it would be too shocking. No matter how talented you are, there is always a limit. Such a mess may arouse the other party's suspicion.
So Mu You only went back a few hundred times in a very limited manner, raised his comprehension level to above 1%, and then stopped immediately.
["How?" Seeing that you seemed to have finished understanding, the bandit leader looked at you and asked. 】
["Successful, I understood about 1%." You answered truthfully. 】
[The leader of the sparrows looked at you in shock when he heard this. He stared at your expression carefully. After confirming that you were not lying, he couldn't help but sigh: "I was right about you. Your talent is the best among the sparrows I have seen so far. A strong one!"]
["According to the current progress, it may only take a few days to master all my stealing skills..." the bandit leader murmured, his eyes wandering, his expression uncertain, as if he was thinking about something unknown. thing. 】
["Okay, very good! Let's continue and try to finish it within three days..." The bandit leader came back to his senses and continued teaching with great interest. 】
This gangster taught him skills more actively than he did himself. Mu You would never believe it if he said he had no agenda.
But Mu You is not afraid. Anyway, his bare feet are not afraid of those wearing shoes. He will moisten his feet after learning. What can the other party do to him?
In the next two days, except for a few hours of rest every day, Mu You continued to learn skills from the bandit leader.
In order to avoid being noticed and frequently interrupting teaching, the bandit leader would only steal from each person once, and only steal one or two divinity coins each time, and would immediately change targets after that.
Facts have proved that most people will not notice the loss of just one or two pieces of divinity at all. Even if they notice it, they will not mobilize troops to investigate because it is completely not worth it. Therefore, after two days, almost no one bothered them.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to study, Mu You also followed the bandit leader and visited the entire Yao tribe, getting a clear picture of the terrain and the distribution of merchants on each mountain.
There are a total of 24 peaks in this mountain group, 23 of which have villages built on them. Each village has a population of between 2,000 and 5,000, and the entire tribe has a total population of nearly 80,000!
Among them, the arakkoa account for half, and among the arakkoa, about one-third of the population are merchants. However, many arakkoa traders do not live in the tribe for a long time, but often go out to do business, so they can do business for a long time. There are not as many arakkoa traders staying on the mountain as expected, only about two thousand or so.
During this period, Mu You also passed through Village No. 1 again, which was the village where he made a big fuss before.
Now that the village has returned to peace, the major vendors have begun selling goods normally again. Mu You didn't know what the bandit leader did, but he did fulfill his promise and quietly settled the impact of his previous massive theft here.
In short, in two days, Mu You almost visited all 23 hills of this tribe.
But there was only one place that he had never set foot on, and that was the last mountain top, which was also the tallest peak among the entire group of mountains, with no peak visible.
["Why is this mountain in front of you uninhabited?" You stand on the edge of Peak No. 21, looking at the lonely peak submerged in the clouds opposite the chain bridge in front of you, and ask the bandit leader next to you. 】
The solitary peak in front of me is said to be too high to reach its top, but in fact there are still many protruding flat lands halfway up the mountain that can be used to build houses.
The other twenty-three hilltop houses have been built airtight, and the density has already exceeded the standard. Only this place is empty, which is obviously abnormal.
["This mountain..." The bandit leader also followed your gaze, looking at the distant peak, and sneered: "It's not that the Crow people don't want to live, it's that they can't live in it."]
["Why?" you asked. 】
"Do you know why this tribe, and even the nearby mountains and dense forests, are called the 'Shrine Mountains'?" the bandit leader asked. 】
Mu You was stunned and immediately remembered that when he first entered the Crow People Tribe, the name 'Shengong Mountain Crow People Tribe' did appear on the notice board at the entrance of the village.
"It's because of this mountain peak!" The bandit leader pointed to the lonely peak in front of him: "This mountain peak is called 'Shrine Peak' because it is said that there is a soaring shrine on the top of this mountain peak. ”]
["It is said?" You expressed doubts about the other party's description. 】
There is a mountain standing here without any obstruction, and there is an iron chain connecting it in the middle. It seems that anyone can pass through it. Is there a shrine on it? Does it still need to be 'reported'? Unless, no one has ever reached the top of the mountain...
["Yes, because the area around this mountain peak and the area above the clouds of this mountain peak are all surrounded by a terrifying cold air. The cold air becomes stronger as you go up. Any creature caught in this cold air will be instantly frozen and lose consciousness. Move until you stay in the ice and are completely frozen into an ice sculpture. You will either fall down the mountain and turn into powder, or you will be left on top forever and be frozen into a part of the mountain."]
[The bandit leader pointed to the opposite side and explained: "If you go to the opposite side now and look up, you can see countless frozen creatures clinging to the mountain. Those are all creatures that once wanted to conquer this iceberg. The bodies left behind.”]
Hearing this, Mu You controlled the character to take out the fog-breaking mirror and looked up.
Sure enough, the text suggested that above the clouds in the mountains, there were densely packed remains of creatures, all frozen into ice sculptures.
After confirming Ma Bandi's words, Mu You became even more confused.
[You ask Ma Bandit, if no one can climb this mountain, then who built the shrine at the top? 】
Things like the 'Shrine' are obviously man-made buildings, so they can't be generated naturally, right?
["It's the ancestors!" the bandit leader said: "This mountain peak and the shrine above have been the territory of the ancestors a long time ago. Only the abnormal physical strength of those primitive people can resist the cold air of the iceberg. However, Since the rise of the Gods, they have evacuated here and have never come back."]
"Savages..."
Mu You nodded, understanding.
Before the rise of the gods, the ancestors were a race that dominated the world of high heaven with their physical strength. It was reasonable for them to establish a territory on the top of a mountain that other races could not reach.
In this way, Mu You became more and more convinced that there might really be a blood god's body hiding on the top of this mountain! After all, there is no safer place of imprisonment than such a dangerous environment that no one can reach.
"In other words, it is possible to land on the top of the mountain with the help of a savage..." Mu You touched his chin, which reminded him of the savage he met before.
This savage happened to live in this sacred mountain range. There was no need for him to look for the savage. Of course, the premise was that he had to convince the savage to be willing to help him.
Thinking of this, Mu You searched for the term 'savage' on the forum.
A large number of related posts instantly appeared below.
As the information about the Crow Tribe was made public on the forum, many residents of Dawn City have come here to join in the fun recently, and a large proportion of players among them met this wild man in the forest at the foot of the mountain, and all of them were friends with Mu Like You, the event of 'savages asking for something' was triggered.
"I'm crying, does anyone know the use of the paper cranes given by the savages?" This was the first post on the home page.
Mu You clicked in and took a look.
"I asked the same question. As soon as we met, this savage said that he had 'seen me' and asked me for something. I thought I was lucky and was going to get a nine-star bodyguard, so he gave me my relic as a meeting gift. After I got it, the other party gave me a useless paper crane, and then ran away with my belongings..."
"Damn it, it turns out I'm not the only one who was tricked!"
"I also encountered it. Fortunately, what I gave was divinity, and the other party didn't want it. They even scolded me..."
"I'm the worst offender! When I saw the paper cranes you all gave me, I thought it was because the things you gave were not good enough and didn't impress the other person, so I gave it my hidden relic..."
"Then what……"
"Then, I got a paper crane, but the number was a little bigger than yours, it was 8..."
"..."
"Speaking of which, what is the use of these paper cranes? I see there are numbers on the back of each one. Is it part of a set? As long as you put together a complete set, you can transform into a god or something?"
"I don't know. You can try to get a set together and then come back and tell me the result."
"I thought so too, but unfortunately this savage never showed up again after seeing me once. I have nowhere to give him anything I want to give him."
"Is there anyone here to put it together and see if I can get a set together?"
"I have a paper crane (3) here. If anyone wants it, I can get it for 100 divinity..."
"I am Paper Crane (1). I only need 10 points of divinity. Please help me get my blood back..."
…
There were at least hundreds of 'victims' appearing in this post. After some comparison, they all confirmed that they had been cheated. The dozen or so pages following the post were basically all advertisements for people who wanted to get rid of the paper cranes and regain their health.
Mu You exited and looked through other posts. Most of them were useless complaints, but after many players discussed with each other, they did research something.
First of all, this savage will only appear once for each player, and as long as he sees a person, no matter how much the person hangs around in the future, the savage will never show up again.
The second is the paper crane given by the savage, which is directly related to the value of the item given to it. The higher the value of the item, the greater the number of paper cranes given in return.
After seeing these two conclusions, many people have the idea of gathering all the paper cranes together to see if they will trigger subsequent events.
Unfortunately, no one has done it so far, because the price to be paid is too high. Giving ordinary props to the savage will only return paper cranes below 1-6. The paper cranes behind it seem to have to hide things above relics.
Needless to say, the value of hidden relics in the world of high heaven. Losing three hidden relics in a row, not to mention ordinary people, even those big forces may not be able to afford it.
What's more, even if the relics are really hidden for the savages, it is very likely that duplicate paper cranes will be returned. If you want to collect all the paper cranes, you will need far more than just nine kinds of props. This kind of investment without guarantee is equivalent to a bottomless pit. The more rational you are, The more powerful a force is, the less likely it is to step into a trap when the direction of the wind is unclear.
But after reading these posts, Mu You became interested.
Others did not dare to take risks because the income from this event was completely out of proportion to the investment. Who knows if there will be a follow-up to gathering the paper cranes. If not, then at least three hidden relics will be wasted.
But Mu You is different. He also has a mission to help the Blood God assemble his body, and the current temple in the air is probably one of the mission locations. As long as he still wants to complete this mission, this temple will be around. No place to go.
And if he wants to land at the shrine on the top of the mountain, he must have the help of savages, so for him, the risks of this incident are barely equal to the benefits. If he loses the bet, he will indeed lose money, but if he wins, there will be additional gains. .
Moreover, according to his previous backtracking attempts, the Savage returned the paper crane, probably based on the star rating of the prop!
1-9 paper cranes correspond to props of 1-9 stars, so it is said that as long as you give the opponent props of different stars, you can ensure that the paper cranes will not be repeated.
Thinking of this, Mu You hurriedly contacted the player on the forum who just said that he got the No. 8 Paper Crane.
Paper cranes No. 1 to No. 6 only require ordinary props. There are a lot of people selling them on the forum. It is easy to get them all. The last three are difficult. Mu You has only seen one such example so far.
"??? Holy shit, am I right? City Lord?!" The player with the ID 'Frozen Fish God of War' suddenly received a private message from Mu You and seemed very excited. He stared at the four words "Ghost Captain" and observed repeatedly. Finally confirmed that it is not a high imitation.
"It's me." Mu You replied, and then went straight to the topic: "Is your paper crane still there?"
"Yes, of course I am... but City Lord, you also want paper cranes? Don't you want to try to get the paper cranes together?" Frozen Fish God of War replied.
Mu You raised his eyebrows. Judging from the other party's word "ye", Mu You guessed that many people had already consulted him.
"Not sure yet, let's check the situation first..." Mu You answered vaguely.
"Then City Lord, how much do you quote?" the other party asked.
"How much do you plan to ask for?" Mu You replied.
"..."
"..."
Obviously, the other party doesn't want to suffer a loss, and Mu You is also afraid that the other party will open his mouth. Both sides are pulling, and neither one is willing to reveal his bottom first.
"Well, since you are the city lord, I will tell you straight away. In fact, there are more than ten people chatting with me right now. They are all leaders of various forces. If you don't believe it, I can show you a screenshot of the chat. , and the one with the most has already quoted 5,000 divinity. I didn’t agree, and I’m still waiting for others to counter-offer..."
"After all, this is just a hidden relic of mine. It's probably the best thing in my life. I really can't convince myself if I don't get more blood..."
"Let's do this. The fixed price is 6,000! I will give this paper crane to you directly. I guarantee that I will not pay attention to anyone else's higher price..."
"Okay, deal." Mu You replied directly.
"I know it's a bit too much, but... ah? You agree?" Looking at the word 'deal' on the screen, Frozen Fish God of War still didn't come back to his senses. Do you agree? He is also preparing to bargain with the other party and then have a good fight...
"Yes, just 6,000. Where are you? I'll send someone over to pay and deliver the goods." Mu You returned.
The reason why I agreed directly was that I was too lazy to argue, and the second reason was that 6,000 divinity was already far lower than the value of an 8-star item, so there was no need to continue to lower the price at the risk of being overtaken by others.
Now that he has learned the art of stealing, 6,000 divinity is just a matter of effort for him. If he has time to argue, he can just go to the tribe and have a tour, and he will have earned it back long ago.
