Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#276 - Thunderfirewood!

Time passed quickly, and it was unknown how long it had been.

When the women in the cabin gradually stopped their weak murmurs and groans, and instead began to chat idly in low voices.

Above the village, the ever-changing constellations and the wildly growing and decaying forests had also gradually slowed down, until they completely returned to normal.

Time was finally frozen on a cloudy night, with stars and moonlight blocked behind thick clouds, and flashes of lightning began to flicker in the stormy sky.

From time to time, there would be bursts of rumbling sounds.

After a while, the voices of the women in the cabin also began to slowly die down, turning into light snores.

However, before the sound could last long, it was drowned out by a large expanse of fierce rain, and the rain curtain connecting the sky and the earth then enveloped the entire village.

"Whirr ~"

In this torrential rain, the giant eagle Rachel struggled to get up from the ground with her tired and weak body, built a rain shelter for herself, and took out an extra-large bed, then lay down inside to continue resting.

"Gah ~"

Before closing her eyes, the little female eagle called out to Little Kong, who was standing still in the rain outside, trying to call the little guy into the shed to take shelter from the rain.

However, Little Kong only glanced at her before turning his head again, continuing to curl up there, his eyes fixed on Liang Yue, who was surrounded by a spectacle.

At this moment, Liang Yue had a purple lotus flower on top of his head.

The lotus flower was as real as could be, with every detail visible, and its posture was graceful. From time to time, it would shake as if it had a spirit.

In the torrential rain, a purple haze of true energy was propping up a shield, covering Liang Yue's entire body.

Like a semi-transparent umbrella, it was raised high, and not a single drop of rain could fall!

Behind him, there was another charred tree stump, faintly visible, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing.

Judging from the image, the tree stump was about one meter wide and less than half a meter high, with the roots occupying most of the volume. The ends of the roots seemed to be rooted in the void.

At this moment, clusters of flames were constantly bursting out of the tree stump, and violent electric sparks were wrapped around it, tightly enveloping it.

Looking at the momentum, it seemed that it wanted to completely burn the tree stump, turning it into electricity.

However, it was under these circumstances, under the ravages of fire and electricity, and under the protection of the charred tree stump, that a faint green color was slowly brewing at this moment.

The thunder and fire that were constantly bursting and flickering on the charred tree stump seemed to no longer be just forces of destruction at this moment, but were transformed into nutrients that were nourishing that touch of green.

What was originally just a small point had now grown to the size of a broad bean under the test of time.

Moreover, it was slowly drilling out of the protection of the tree stump.

Under the interweaving of thunder and fire, this little thing showed an unusual vitality, and spread out two fleshy leaves at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In an instant, a strange wave suddenly emanated from this young shoot, rippling around like water waves.

It seemed to be proclaiming its birth to the surrounding world!

… …

"Squeak ~" With a soft sound, the door of the cabin was pushed open from the inside.

Teacher Shizuka was the first to walk out of the room, yawning, stretching out her arms, and stretching lazily, revealing her beautiful figure without a doubt.

"Eh ~ Liang Yue-kun's back, and what is that on top of his head?"

"It seems that he must have practiced some magical skill again, right? I remember ~ he said last night that he had entered some innate realm."

Saya Takagi said absentmindedly while rubbing the corners of her eyes, with a hint of envy in her tone.

"That seems to be a spectacle belonging to innate martial artists. I once saw it on the body of Zhang Sanfeng, but what is behind Zhang Zhenren is a Tai Chi diagram.

Liang Yue's here looks a bit complicated."

Yang Buhui said with curiosity, holding Xiaozhao's waist in front of her, her chin resting on the other's shoulder.

"On that, I feel the power of fire, lightning, and plants, it is indeed a bit complicated."

Alwen walked over at this time, hugged Little Kong, who had been drenched in the rain for most of the night, and then took out a towel to wipe the dark fur on his body that was standing up like a hedgehog.

"I remember that in Liang Yue-kun's previous training mission, there seemed to be a reward, which was an innate martial arts insight. Could this be that thing."

Saeko Busujima walked to the dining table at this time, cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, while looking at Liang Yue, who was cultivating with his back to them, facing the morning light.

"Can a martial arts insight reach this level? I can even feel a different elemental power on that little sapling behind him."

Saya Minami said at this time.

With a wave of her hand, the dishes and chopsticks on the table disappeared instantly. It was unknown whether she had put them into the stronghold world or sent them into some corner.

Seeing this, Saeko-senpai, who was cleaning up next to her, rolled her beautiful eyes at her, giving her a dissatisfied look.

"It's not just that little sapling, the surrounding thunder and fire seem to be very simple, they all contain rich elemental power."

Yuriko took a damp cloth from the side and wiped the table meticulously. With a flip of her hand, she took out a pile of ingredients from the storage space.

Afterwards, she took out an iron bucket filled with magma, and gently poured it out. In the groove in the middle of the table, a magma grill suddenly appeared.

"It seems ~ you have all made great progress."

At this moment, Liang Yue's voice suddenly came from the side, and the women all looked at his back when they heard the words.

At this time, he had already begun to withdraw his power, and the purple lotus above his head and the thunder, fire, and wood spectacles behind him were also slowly fading, and then completely converged.

"Brother ~ is your cultivation over?"

"Yeah ~ this time I have benefited a lot."

Reaching out and picking up Nana, who ran towards him, Liang Yue then sat down at the table with the half-grown girl in his arms.

"What did you say before, wasn't it only one day? How long has it been now, the upgrade of the outside world is over.

A full three days! My brain has been hurting for three days, don't you have anything to say?"

Saya Minami looked at him with a stinky face at this time, took a hard bite of the bread in her hand and said, her eyes also with dissatisfaction.

"Oh ~ I didn't expect this problem beforehand. Now it seems that this may be because there is a difference in physical fitness between us, so your speed in receiving knowledge is a bit slower.

However, you should all be satisfied with the skill "Elemental Mysteries", right?"

As soon as Liang Yue's voice fell, everyone on the table nodded unconsciously.

Alwen, as the elf princess, stretched out a slender finger at this time, and then drew a few dots in the air, while muttering a somewhat ethereal elven language.

In an instant, a round, burning fireball appeared!

However, immediately afterwards, the fireball began to show cracks on the surface due to the unstable structure.

After being shot into the air by Alwen, it had only just flown four or five meters before it suddenly scattered into a scattering of sparks ~

"Oh ~ ~! ! !"

However, even so, her act of casting a spell still attracted the unanimous exclamation of the women!

"Alwen, you can actually use magic! ?"

"No, but as a high elf, I naturally have some magic power in my body, but the amount is very small. Now I am just using the knowledge in "Elemental Mysteries".

Using magic power as a guide, I have gathered a piece of fire element. Now it seems that just gathering it is not enough, the arrangement structure of the elements is also very important ~"

"That's already very powerful!"
