Chapter 70 - Dragon Seeking Meditation Please Follow
Here is Chapter 70 of "Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God": âWe could only do this for now.â Cangya sounded somewhat disappointed.After hesitating for a moment,... Donât miss it!
âWe could only do this for now.â Cangya sounded somewhat disappointed.After hesitating for a moment, he added, âSir, could we temporarily reassign Lady Artolia from the Guard Team?â
âWhatâs wrong?â Gaven raised an eyebrow.
In recent days, he hadnât paid much attention to his Spirit Crystal Servant, Artolia.
Her personality was so strong that unless he asked, she wouldnât take the initiative to report anything.
Or rather, the concept of reporting didnât exist for her.
In her eyes, Gaven was her knight.
âThe training intensity demanded by Lady Artolia is too great, far exceeding the physical capabilities of the soldiers. Follow current novels on Nová´(l)FÉŞre .É´á´t
Many have become exhausted and ill,â explained Cangya with a look of helplessness.
âThere is a great divide between Professionals and non-Professionals; they cannot be treated equally.
Additionally, Lady Artolia completely disregards our natural constraints, determined to have us abandon slings and switch to what she calls the âEnglish Longbowâ.â
âHow about this, you separate the Professionals in your squad and place them under her command to divide her attention.
For the non-Professionals, you take over their training.
What do you think?
As for the arrangements of equipment, Iâll talk to her about it.â Gaven wasnât going to completely reject Artoliaâs training plan based on Cangyaâs opinion, as he had personally reviewed them.
Hmm, switching to the English Longbow was not his idea but seemed to stem from King Arthurâs influence.
That was something he would not allow.
Apart from the issue of bows, even short bows would be cumbersome for the small stature of the Gnolls and wouldnât offer any advantage over slings that use specialized ammunition and are more lethal.
As for crossbows and firearms, equipment that doesnât require much strength, those could be considered.
However, they were relatively expensive and currently not feasible to acquire in large quantities.
After carefully weighing his options, Cangya nodded in agreement, âThat would be much more reasonable.â
âAnd how about Leader Susie?
I wonder if the people of your tribe have gotten accustomed to living in Blackwell?
Is there anything that has been lacking in their treatment?â Gaven turned to the last Gnoll present.
Unlike with Cangya, Gaven did not integrate the Pitfall Tribe directly into Blackwell but allowed them to establish a new colony in the nearby mountains as a vassal tribe, maintaining a certain degree of independence.
Firstly, their skin color was much too different from that of the Blackwell Tribeâs Gnolls; one could tell at a glance, making integration challenging.
Secondly, because of their unique abilities, which were extremely useful, Gaven did not wish them to interbreed and thereby diminish these capabilities.
âItâs been very good, far better than our previous life in the Pitfall,â Susie quickly stood up to answer, âTo express our gratitude for your rescue, our people have decided to offer our Dragon Seeking Meditation and Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony for your use, to help the people of Blackwell Tribe excavate the dragons within their bodies and obtain their own Dragon Abilities.â
âDragon Seeking Meditation?
Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony?â
Upon hearing these two terms, Gaven had little reaction, but the other three Gnolls leaped up, their eyes nearly shining with tangible excitement.
âDo you mean that Dragon Seeking Meditation, that Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony?â
âYes, that Dragon Seeking Meditation, that Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony.â
âGentlemen, could you not speak in riddles?
Could someone please explain to me what Dragon Seeking Meditation is?
And whatâs this Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony about?
They seem very important to you Gnolls,â Gaven finally understood what it felt like to listen to an enigmaâwhile the literal meaning was clear, he was completely in the dark about the underlying implications.
âTo understand Dragon Seeking Meditation and the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony, one must speak of the origins of us Gnolls, something you must have heard of, Sir?â The one who explained was not Susie, but Zack.
Although he didnât know the meditation or the ritual, he was well-informed about them.
âIâve heard that they originated from the Dragon God and the Giant Dragons.
It is said that when a True Dragon shed a part of its own body to create a companion, the Dragon Blood that scattered fell to the ground and gave birth to the Gnolls.â
âExactly.
All Gnolls carry the fresh blood of True Dragons; magic power naturally permeates our bodies.
We are the witnesses to the True Dragonâs loss of immortality,â Zack declared with immense pride, puffing up his lean chest, âDragon Seeking Meditation is a special form of meditation that delves deep to tap into the potential of the dragon within us, to seek our origins, and through the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony, to gain our own Dragon Abilities.
There are legends of Gnolls who, through Dragon Seeking Meditation and the Ritual Ceremony, obtained the ability to transform into Giant Dragons.â
Gaven asked Susie thoughtfully, âCould it be that your tribeâs Stone Shaping and Stone Control abilities are not innate but are acquired through the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony?â
Susie nodded and then shook her head, âYou could say that, and you could also say no.
Our tribe has been practicing the Dragon Seeking Meditation and the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony for nearly a century now.
In the beginning, there was not much difference between our tribe and others.
However, as the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony became more common, the new generations have been becoming increasingly powerful in this regard.
In terms of affinity with the earth, our tribe is naturally much stronger than others, and after the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony, this ability will be further enhanced.â
âSo thatâs how it is, Iâve long heard that the Gnoll bloodline has a strong capacity for adaptation; I had no idea it was so potent,â Gaven couldnât help but exclaim in astonishment.
It was obvious that this was Enhancement inheritance.
âCould you demonstrate this Dragon Seeking Meditation for me?â
âThisâŚâ Susie hesitated for a moment, âItâs possible, but you might not be able to appreciate its uniqueness, after all, itâs our way of embracing and feeling our innate bloodline.â
âJust do it, I just want to verify a guess, donât forget, I am a Half-Elf and also good at meditation,â Gaven replied half seriously, half lightly.
Ever since he had reaped numerous benefits from self-hypnosis, he was very sensitive and interested in such matters.
Naturally, when encountering them, he wanted to compare notes.
âAlright!â Having decided to divulge this secret, Susie no longer kept it to herself.
She pushed her chair aside, sat down cross-legged on the floor, and closed her eyes.
Gaven involuntarily straightened up, closed his eyes, and concentrated deeply, entering a state between trance and consciousness.
Meditation is a mental affair, invisible to the naked eye.
Perhaps the spirit could hope to detect it.
The moment she closed her eyes, Susie entered the state of Dragon Seeking Meditation.
Her breath became long and drawn out, and the flow of blood in her body slowed down significantly.
Magic Power fluctuations rippled like waves underneath her in the ground and then gathered around her as the center, merging with her body, with her bloodline, into one.
She was like a heart, the heart of the earth around her, pulsing with her own heartâs rhythm.
This was a form of magic power synchrony, similar to that of Professionals, but it lacked a bit of the final touchâbecause the element Susie was now synchronizing with was relatively simple, namely the Earth Element.
This also explained why the Pitfall Tribe had such a unique skin color and such powerful control over earth and stone.
They had altered the nature of their bodies through long-term, generation-to-generation synchrony with the Earth Element.
If Gavenâs guess was correct, the Pitfall Tribe was now leaning towards being Elemental Creatures, more so than beings of the Material Plane.
Having fully entered the state of Dragon Seeking Meditation, Susie emanated an aura akin to a Giant Dragon, with a massive amount of Earth Element swirling around her, like an earth dragon.
As if drawn by this aura, Zhaxi, Cangya, and Gos, three Gnolls, simultaneously sat down on the ground and closed their eyes.
From the outside in, their aura, their mental fluctuations, were undergoing mysterious changes, seemingly responding to Susie, entering the same rhythm.
Gaven keenly felt that the flow of their blood was also changing, becoming heavy and slow.
