Chapter 88: Chapter 088 Hesitation
After reaching Level 1, Roger automatically gained an effect of keen ears and sharp eyes, and upon entering Level 2, he added wisdom, which effectively increased his memory.
Thus, the latter half of the contents of the Cultivation Manual completely unfolded before him.
Green Grass Trial: The essential path to becoming a true Demon Hunter, from muscles to bones and internal organs, terrifying potions will utterly destroy the body and rebuild it.
In this process, you will gain an incredibly strong physique and Perception Ability, and have the opportunity to activate your first Dharma Seal!
The Green Grass Trial consists of the following stages.
Strengthening: Before starting the complete transformation, the trainee needs to continuously push their physical fitness to the human limit and polish their spirit, possessing an iron will.
Tempering: In order to undergo the frightening transformation, while pushing their physical fitness to the limit, trainees need to preliminarily strengthen their internal organs.
This process doesn’t have requirements for physical fitness but demands formidable spiritual power and indomitable will.
The transformation process is extremely painful.
It is suggested that trainees elevate their meditation level to Level 3 or above.
Internal organ strengthening will promote a second enhancement of physical fitness.
Fusion*Solution: Merge and begin toxin trials, allowing the body to have strong detoxification abilities.
At this point, consume the Green Grass Potion and start the final metamorphosis.
“Cultivation Manual information updated.”
Roger opened the bookshelf and glanced over it casually.
Trial Swordsmanship: Comprehensive swordsmanship practiced by Demon Hunters before undergoing the Green Grass Trial, with complicated moves and numerous actions, it exercises almost all the important muscle groups in the body.
Unlike the Universal Sword Techniques previously practiced, Trial Swordsmanship has a total of 36 basic movements, ranging from easy to difficult, with every 12 movements forming a series, each series astonishingly calculated as its own level!
Roger simply tried some moves and found that due to more muscles being involved, many movements were very complex for him, almost to the point where he needed to start training from scratch.
On the other hand, the parts that overlapped with the Universal Sword Techniques became relatively simple, but even so, the difficulty of improving Trial Swordsmanship was several times greater than that of Universal Sword Techniques.
“Sharpening a knife does not interfere with chopping wood, it seems indeed necessary to upgrade the Hunter’s Cabin.”
The potions used in the strengthening stage did not change much in formula, just a stronger dosage.
However, many more potions are needed for the tempering process.
Roger only took a cursory look, and besides the likes of bear hearts and serpent gall, there were many parts of animals and plants he had never heard of, and even several special items.
Those things, probably won’t be easy to get.
The entire tempering process is simple yet difficult.
That is, drinking potions and injections.
The most rudimentary and brutal method to preliminarily transform the internal organs, just thinking about this process would be unimaginably painful.
And that’s just tempering, the next phase will be even more difficult.
After enduring these three stages, Roger will then be qualified to consume the Green Grass Potion.
As for the formula and process of the Green Grass Potion, the current Roger couldn’t see it; conservatively estimating, he needs to elevate his meditation to at least Level 4.
“Transcendence is within sight!”
Seeing this complete process, Roger was not disheartened but rather filled with confidence in himself.
The entire Green Grass Trial might be fraught with peril for an ordinary Demonic Hunter, but Roger had the Hunter’s Cabin, and he believed his chances were infinitely higher than others!
After learning new sword techniques, Roger needed another familiarization process, during which Pain Potions would not be much help; in contrast, the Training Room and Concentration Potions would be of great assistance to him.
Unfortunately, the vacation was over, and Roger temporarily did not have time to cultivate, as Henrik had also phoned him.
“The previous mission is canceled, you can just destroy the information yourself, it was just an ordinary case, the police station has already solved it.”
“This time, the mission is in Swamp Town, I’ve already arranged everything for you, you will take the school’s bus there early tomorrow morning.”
“You guys can even manage the school’s affairs?” Roger was quite curious.
“Didn’t you learn to play the oboe?”
“Just so happens your school has an exchange performance with Swamp Town, and I managed to squeeze you in.”
Roger fell silent for a moment.
“Can I tell you that I still don’t know how to assemble that thing?”
Silence fell on the other end of the phone.
“Shit, if you can’t do anything, why did you choose it?”
“Because it’s long enough.”
“It can hide my sword!”
Roger answered honestly.
“I’ll be damned…” Henrik swore.
“Forget it, I’ll arrange the rest for you.”
“I’ll send you an address in a bit. It’s my temporary safe house in Swamp Town. Inside you’ll find the equipment and documents I’ve prepared for you.”
“Also, there’s the item you asked me to have someone craft.”
“I’ve covered the expenses for you, remember to pay me back,” Henrik reminded him.
“The exchange event this time is limited; you have to seize the opportunity. Several people have already died during this period.”
Henrik sounded extremely urgent.
“Anyway, I won’t talk about it now; I’ve got a fight on my hands.”
With that, he hung up the phone.
“A fight?”
“Heh…”
Knowing Henrik for a while, Roger had gotten a good sense of his character.
The only thing he would call a fight…
And the guy hadn’t even told him the details of the job.
Roger sighed helplessly.
After carefully packing away the potions he had prepared, Roger returned home where Adeline fully supported him in his music exchange activity.
“You were actually selected by the high school band in Baytown!” Adeline gave Roger a big hug.
“I had no idea you played the oboe so well. Will you perform for us tonight?”
Roger’s cheek twitched.
Perform what?
Dismantling the oboe?
Heh, that would be a literal “pluck, pluck, pluck”.
He tactfully declined Adeline’s request, and fleeing from her disgruntled gaze, Roger beat a hasty retreat.
He was resolute in his determination; he would definitely take the time to properly practice playing… ah no, performing with the oboe.
For some reason, Anna hadn’t shown up for several days, and when it came to the mind of this ghost girl, he really couldn’t guess at all.
As he was lost in thought, a knock on the door came, followed by Amanda’s voice, “Roger, are you there? I need to talk to you about something.”
Opening the door, he saw the red-haired girl in a floral dress standing at the threshold.
Ever since her return from Swamp Town, Amanda had been acting oddly. After asking a few times and seeing that she wasn’t willing to say much, Roger hadn’t thought much about it.
“What’s up?”
Inviting Amanda into his room, Roger sat across from her.
Amanda’s pale legs were folded together, her hands interlaced, and she looked like she was on the verge of saying something important.
Just then, a small head peeked around the door—it was Jack.
“Scram!”
Amanda glared at him coldly.
After this brief interruption, she seemed to gather her courage. Taking a deep breath, she began to speak.
What do you think?
