Chapter 13 Cultivation Methods
Dorothy sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the scroll in her hands, her eyes fixed on the words written on it.
"Flowing water breathing technique, flowing water meditation technique..."
The scroll in his hand contained two sets of cultivation methods.
The Flowing Water Breathing Method is a method of continuously improving one's physical body and magical power by training and cultivating magical power, and then using magical power to temper the body.
The Flowing Water Meditation Method is a way to concentrate magical power through meditation, while simultaneously enhancing magical perception and elemental affinity.
In summary, one set of training methods is for warriors, and the other set is for mages.
Dorothy looked at the last note on the scroll.
"Hunter School for Sale, 80 Silver Coins!"
"That's equivalent to four gold coins..."
Dorothy was somewhat moved.
It wasn't because the scroll in my hand was worth four gold coins, but because it was cheap, too cheap!
This cultivation method only costs four gold coins, and anyone who understands it can learn it once the scroll is opened.
"I thought this kind of thing would be heavily restricted."
However, Dorothy reconsidered.
For ordinary people, not being able to read is already a significant limitation.
Therefore, even if the scroll is picked up by ordinary people, they will not be able to cultivate magic power according to the contents.
Of course, there are also people like Uncle Zaka.
If the other party wasn't lying to him, it seems he could cultivate magic using his clumsy method.
"Breathing techniques and meditation don't seem to conflict..."
Dorothy read the scroll in her hand thoroughly.
However, most mercenaries seem to choose to practice breathing techniques and become warriors rather than mages.
"The City of Apprentices..."
Dorothy immediately thought of the City of Apprentices.
Most magicians come from there.
A single meditation technique can only accumulate magic power, but without magic, one is merely a mobile source of magic power.
It's impossible for a normal person to create magic out of nothing.
It's easier to just pick up a sword and become a warrior.
At least the weapons are in real hands, and even without weapons, a body tempered by magic can give a warrior considerable combat power.
Dorothy immediately began practicing according to the training method on the scroll.
The first is the breathing method.
【Running Water Breathing Method LV1 (1/10)】
Dorothy's eyes lit up with delight when she saw the skills appear on the panel.
So she immediately began to try meditation.
【Flowing Water Meditation LV1 (1/10)】
Both skills appeared on the panel.
Moreover, Dorothy did indeed feel the difference between the two cultivation methods during her practice.
When practicing breathing techniques, one can clearly feel a portion of the condensed magical power being separated to stimulate the muscles.
However, when practicing meditation, this feeling does not occur; the magical power continuously increases.
"Now that I've learned swordsmanship, the way to accumulate magic power is either to add points directly or to continuously swing the sword and let the body gather magic power on its own. This training method is just right, as it can save me a lot of attribute points."
"Before venturing into the City of Apprentices to learn magic, breathing techniques are the most suitable for me!"
Just after Dorothy made her choice to focus on breathing techniques from now on, a panel suddenly popped up in front of her.
[A new breathing technique has been detected. Please name it.]
"A new breathing technique?"
Dorothy was stunned.
Then she discovered that the skills "Sixth Set of Gymnastics" and "Flowing Water Breathing Method" had disappeared from her panel.
"This is... a new skill formed after skill fusion?!"
Dorothy got excited just thinking about what this meant.
This means that when you learn new breathing techniques in the future, you will be able to develop new skills, and the effects of the breathing techniques will be stronger!
Dorothy thought to herself with a touch of narcissism.
"Am I destined to become the world's greatest warrior?"
"However, I'm not good at naming things, so let's just call it 'Flowing Water Breathing Method'."
【Running Water Breathing Method LV5 (1/50)】
On the new panel, the newly acquired skills are already at level 5.
"Is it because the original level of aerobics was 10?"
Dorothy closed her eyes and carefully felt it.
Although it wasn't reflected on the panel, she could feel her magic power increase slightly.
What was originally half a glass of water is now a full glass.
"If I get a new breathing technique later, its level will probably be halved after fusion. But with such a significant increase in effect, my magic power hasn't decreased, only the level has dropped. I've made a profit!"
Dorothy rolled up the scroll.
"We'll just wait until the winter festival is over."
At that time, large numbers of adventurers would head to the Giant Spider Forest after the festival.
Dorothy was preparing to go with the mercenaries at that time.
……
Ten days later.
The winter celebrations were lively, but that had nothing to do with Dorothy.
She sat in her dilapidated wooden hut, tossing a thin twig she had picked up into the stove.
Wild vegetables and mushrooms that had been dug up were simmering in the stone pot.
This is her holiday food.
There was no seasoning or oily smell.
"The celebration will end tomorrow; it's time to prepare for the Giant Spider Forest."
Dorothy's gaze fell on her basket, the firelight reflected in her eyes.
The next day arrived quickly.
Dorothy, who had just woken up from her sleep, heard someone shouting outside.
Dorothy wasn't the only one planning to gather resources in the Spider Forest after the winter festival ended.
Although these villagers only dared to linger on the outskirts of the woods.
But if you can gather a few magic herbs, that would be a considerable gain.
Dorothy allocated her newly acquired attribute points to Agility.
Name: Dorothy Cartale
Strength: 23+
Agility: 10+
Wisdom: 13+
Skill: Flowing Water Breathing Technique LV6 (15/60)+
Flowing Water Meditation LV1 (1/10)+
Magic LV2 (3/20)+
Sword Skill - Lion Slash LV6 (10/60)+
Loran Common Language LV3 (3/30)+
Attribute points: 0
Dorothy has accumulated 11 attribute points over the past few days. She allocated 3 points to Agility, making her reaction speed twice that of an average person.
The remaining 8 points are added to Wisdom to enhance Magic.
Moreover, Rosie had been using the Flowing Water Breathing Technique while practicing her sword skills for the past eleven days, so both of her skills leveled up.
Even his fluency in the common language of Loran improved slightly due to repeatedly reading the cultivation methods recorded on the scroll.
Dorothy puts her basket on her back.
She was completely different from how she was a month ago.
Although its body still looks delicate, after being tempered by magic, it is now as strong as a bull.
The magic within my body is abundant.
"I can now use Lion Slash at the same level as Uncle Zaka, and I have enough magic power to support me without running out of energy after casting it twice."
Dorothy's strength has now surpassed that of Uncle Zaka.
"Our goal for this trip is two hundred gold coins!"
After using Lion's Slash twice in a row, Dorothy was full of confidence.
Her strength is now comparable to that of the mercenaries.
Even if you encounter monsters, you don't have to hide in the house in fear like before.
squeak~
Reach out and push open the wooden door.
The sky outside was still somewhat dark, and a cold wind kept blowing against her, but Dorothy's heart was warm.
She took a step forward and saw the blurry figures on the road, villagers who were preparing to go to the Giant Spider Forest together.
Dorothy followed their retreating figures.
When leaving Lauren Village.
Dorothy glanced out of the corner of her eye at the only stone building in the village.
A slightly overweight figure was standing in front of the door.
Today, Mr. Lauren, unusually, got up early to watch his villagers leave.
