In the morning, Tilan and Anneli were decorating the activity room and placing the newly purchased tables and items.
"This oven is placed in the lower cabinet. When you need to use it, just open the cabinet door." The girl pointed to the black slate cabinet below.
"Okay, then put it here." Anneli nodded, and then thought of something.
"Do you need to buy some potted plants or the like? Otherwise, the activity room will be a bit monotonous."
"You can buy it, but it needs to be easier to take care of."
"Yeah," Annelie wrote on the board and put it away.
Now this activity room has been initially set up. In addition to the necessary tables and chairs, there are also some commonly used equipment, such as computer terminals, printing equipment, kitchen utensils, refrigerators, storage mats and mats, etc.
After placing these utensils, the two sat in front of the black walnut table. Anneli lifted the glass teapot on the table, poured clear herbal tea for Tilan and herself, and then drank it in small sips.
"Although there is air conditioning, I still feel reluctant to let the fan blow the air." She leaned on the back of the chair, her eyes were slightly closed, her body was loose, and she didn't look like a well-known lady at all.
In fact, Anneli was not like this at the beginning. She would behave very capable and professional in front of Tilan, but as we got along with Tilan's 'indulgence', she gradually exposed the lazy side of her nature.
From this point of view, she is indeed similar to sister 'Frius'. The maid sister also lives the life of a wealthy lady. However, she probably doesn't like all kinds of entertainment and high-intensity business when she comes to live in the remote Payin City. Let's work.
The customer flow of 'Liu Li Dream' has never been high, and the work in the store is actually relatively relaxed. The relationship between the customers and the maids is more like acquaintances and friends, and they usually chat, and the atmosphere is very leisurely.
The two sat across the table, drinking tea and chatting until there was a knock on the door.
"Hello, is this the Dusk Band here?" An elf with dark blond short hair stood in front of the door.
"Yes, please wait a moment." After saying that, the two looked at each other and then walked over.
"Are you...Alian?" Anneli stood at the door and immediately recognized the elf boy's identity.
It is said that there are about 1,000 first-year students in Eds Academy, and it is highly likely that you will occasionally run into some famous people among them.
"It's me, but I don't know your names yet." He wore glasses and had a very bookish air.
"I am Anneli, and this is Tilan, the president of our society."
"Hello." The girl with black hair and blue dress nodded, surprising the other person.
"When I think about it, it turns out that You is Tilan. I missed the opening ceremony because I followed my father on an investigation in the Wind Dew Grass Star Territory, and I only heard about your name from my classmates later."
This boy named Allen is also a celebrity in the school. His parents are both professors of botany. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them stayed at Sequence 6 and did not enter Sequence 7, they would be called 'Masters' now. , and although Allen looks like he is only 17 years old, this is because the elf develops relatively late, and his actual age is several years older than his classmates, and he has already advanced to Natural Sequence 4.
The three of them walked into the activity room and sat down. Anneli took out a new cup and poured tea.
After a brief exchange of ideas, Allen asked the girl about ancient secrets.
"Because of the influence of my parents, I know a lot about botany and am very interested in it. I heard that you have a lot of ancient secrets and knowledge, so I came to try my luck."
"Does student Yalian want to know the secrets related to plants?" Tilan asked.
"Yes, yes."
"Let me think about it..." The girl began to search her mind for secrets related to plants.
I hadn't noticed it before, but after searching for memories, Tilan suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a lot of secret techniques of this kind.
First of all, 'Qinglian Sword Cleansing Palace' is the direct descendant of Qingluan, majoring in natural sequence, and Qingluan has a deep connection with World Tree. The other ghost teacher seemed to be an ice elf in his lifetime. When he taught her, It also explained a lot of secret techniques of ice elves in the past, including those related to plants.
After sorting out the outline, Tilan picked out a relatively simple secret technique that she could use immediately.
The girl with black hair and a blue dress stood up, took out an ice cube from the refrigerator, and placed it on the table. Then her eyes blinked, and dots of mysterious symbols appeared in it. Then she pointed her finger, and the ice cube A few buds appeared on the block, and then grew rapidly. Soon, a slightly gorgeous ice flower tree appeared in front of the two people.
This half-meter-high 'Silver Tree Ice Flower' is made entirely of ice, but it grows like a plant, with branches, leaves, and even fruits.
"According to the current standards of the Federation, this is probably a dark silver-level secret technique called 'Blooming on Ice'. It uses its own magic power to simulate plant seeds, and takes root on the ice, absorbing them as part of itself."
"This secret technique is the foundation. It can be advanced into secret techniques such as 'Ice Water Thorns' or 'Ice Tree Cage' to control the opponent's actions."
The difference between secret techniques and spells is that their effects are stronger and more direct, and their magic power consumption is very small. However, the performance of secret techniques is often more demanding, requiring designated sequences, special magic power, and understanding of its concepts, etc.
After introducing the first one, Tilan thought about it again.
"Do you have any plant seeds you carry with you? I need a medium to cast them." The girl said.
"No problem, I carry a lot of seeds with me." Allen said it was not a big problem. He reached into his pocket and took out a row of different seeds.
"That's it." The girl selected one of the seeds, threw it up, and held it in her hand.
She closed her eyes, chanted silently, and then released her hand. The seed grew rapidly. It first sprouted, and then the sprouts continued to extend, and then formed the shape of a straight wooden sword.
Holding this wooden sword, traces of brilliance continued to appear on it, and finally it completely restrained itself and returned to normal.
Compared with ordinary wooden swords, this sword seems to be exceptionally light. There is no resistance when swinging, and it simply flips around in the girl's body, just like a phantom.
"The Swift Sparrow Sword, a golden-level secret technique, uses any seed to catalyze it, causing its fiber texture to form a natural branding pattern as it grows, in order to achieve the effect of some extraordinary creation."
"The sword condensed in this way is not only as hard as steel, but also has the special effect of 'cutting the air', which can avoid air resistance and is extremely fast and sharp." The girl said, then looked around and shook her head, but unfortunately there was nothing Test the sword with something, otherwise you will know its power by just cutting it.
However, the person opposite also saw what the girl was thinking. He took out a dark wooden board that he had with him, put it on the table, and let her try the sword.
As if playing a relaxed game, the black-haired girl thrust the sword directly into the gap between the wooden board and the tabletop, then flipped it over and lifted the wooden board. Two arcs of light flashed past, and the dark wooden board divided into eight pieces fell on the tabletop, bouncing slightly. Arise, return to stillness.
The cut surface of the wooden board was extremely smooth, with no burrs visible, which not only impressed Allen.
The dark wooden board he was carrying was a recent test material. It was far stronger than steel, and was about the same as gold-grade alloy materials. He didn't want to cut it open so easily.
Is this a powerful secret skill, or is this girl's superb swordsmanship?
He shook his head secretly, and then said that he knew that the statement on the club was true.
"What a surprise..." He originally thought it was just a random gimmick to recruit new recruits, but he didn't expect to actually witness several unrecorded ancient secret arts. Now it was his turn to hesitate.
Do you want to join? Although he will get some benefits in the club, it will undoubtedly take up time and energy in his life, and he is used to studying alone. If he joins the club, he may not be able to be so free in the future.
It's really difficult.
