Create a fantasy paradise starting from Conan

Chapter 271: Learning Arts in the Kingdom of Shadows

Because Gilgamesh had so many treasures, the two stayed in Uruk for five days before leaving.

Although it was only five days, the unfamiliarity between the two completely disappeared because their relationship became closer than before. When they returned to the paradise space again, the love in Medea's eyes was almost overflowing.

Seeing the admiration in her eyes, Bai Mu gently ruffled her hair.

Noticing that she closed her eyes slightly with a look of enjoyment, Bai Mu couldn't help but whispered to the corner of her lips.

To be honest, my love for her is far less than her love for me.

However, it doesn’t matter. Just try to like her more slowly.

After all, who could hate such an innocent, lovable girl who only has herself in her heart?

"Next, we are going to a very dangerous place, so be prepared."

"I already have one. As long as I can be with you, even if we have to go to hell together, it doesn't matter."

"Haha... It's not like we're going to hell. We haven't done anything bad. If we're going to hell, we're going to heaven."

The white screen brought up the game interface, and he browsed through the mini-games after [The Death of Gilgamesh], skipping over the unfamiliar myths and legends, and historical stories, and his gaze rested on [Learning Arts in the Kingdom of Shadows].

After all, my skills are just at the mortal level. Speaking of Type-Moon, Scathach is one of the masters in terms of skills. It would be a pity not to see it.

The Shadow Kingdom in the present world is difficult to find. Relatively speaking, it is most convenient to directly enter the Shadow Kingdom during Cu Chulainn's apprenticeship through the game.

Click to enter, and the next second, they both arrived at the Kingdom of Shadows.

The gray sky, the barren land, the black forest, the ferocious beasts everywhere, everything you see gives people a sense of depression.

Inside a magnificent castle, Cu Chulainn was fighting with many of his fellow disciples in the courtyard with a gun. A beautiful woman with purple hair and wearing a tight-fitting dress was standing by and observing with a gun.

Noticing the sudden appearance of two people, Cu Chulainn was the first to attack with a gun.

Bai Mu instantly took out the Hard and Soft Yin-Yang Sword, wrapped it with Armament Haki and Conqueror Haki, and magic power, and after multiplying it two hundred times with Momo's ability, he slashed it with the sword.

A flying slash from several thousand meters high overwhelmed the castle wall like a rotten wood and cut a canyon in the ground. Although Cu Chulainn dodged it in time and blocked it with his spear, he was still sent flying back hundreds of meters and the spear in his hand broke into two pieces.

Scathach's eyes lit up, and she decisively attacked with a gun.

Because the speed was too fast, Bai Mu did not use the flying slash. He just told Medea to step back and then fought with her.

No matter how Bai Mu swung his sword, Scathach could easily block it. Her body was extremely agile and her strength was not inferior to his.

The two of them were moving faster and faster, and in countless afterimages, Bai Mu's clothes began to become tattered.

But the magic power covered his whole body and turned into armor, coupled with the enhancement of Armament Haki, Momo's ability was multiplied by 250 times, and with Sanwa's Vajra Indestructibility and lv.3 damage reduction ability, his body was always unharmed.

No matter where Scathach attacked, it only produced a series of sparks. Even if her eyelids were pierced, there was only a clear "clang" sound.

As Scathach's attack speed increased again, Bai Mu could no longer touch the corner of her clothes. He could only stand there silently and let her continue attacking.

At the same time, occasionally seize the opportunity to try to fight back.

But even if he used the magnetic field to pull Scathach's body, he still couldn't hit her.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang Qiang..."

Scathach's body turned into dozens of afterimages, and it looked like many people were besieging Baimu, but the same place where the gun tip pierced the skin only produced sparks.

Countless sparks converged together, as if a cutting machine was running at high speed.

After a long time, Scathach realized that the tip of the spear had curled up. She stopped at the right moment and asked in surprise:

"What kind of monster are you?"

Cu Chulainn and others behind Scathach widened their eyes and were unable to utter a word.

The master is the strongest warrior, and the magic spear she uses is an indestructible treasure. Her martial arts are obviously far superior to those of the opponent. Even gods, she has killed more than one, but she just can't break their defense.

"Ordinary humans, just because of their innate talents, have practiced some more defensive techniques."

Bai Mu smiled. The sword techniques in the One Piece world were still too rough, and his will was not concentrated enough.

"Teacher Scathach, I'm here to learn. Please teach me combat skills."

"... "

Scathach carefully looked at the white curtain and said thoughtfully:

"Your swordsmanship is indeed too crude, but you have a talent I've never seen before. Would you like to learn spearmanship with me?"

"That's what I'm here for."

"Good, let's get started."

Scathach stretched out her hand toward the castle, and two new magic spears flew straight towards it.

He threw one of them to Bai Mu and immediately spoke:

"bring it on!"

Bai Mu caught the gun, put away his sword, and assumed a stabbing posture.

Although he had only learned some basic moves from a modern spearmanship teacher, if he mastered one technique, he would master all techniques. His will, domineering power, and magic power could also be added to the magic spear.

As the fight began again, sparks flew across Bai Mu's body from the collision of the gun tip and his body.

Scathach discovered that he was unintentionally imitating her own skills and had become extremely proficient in just a few breaths. The excitement in her eyes became more intense, and she slowed down her movements, while giving some explanations.

"What a monster! Not only does he possess an unparalleled physique, he can also control time, space, and magnetic fields, possessing the ability to be immortal."

"In that case, let me show you some interesting moves."

"Reverse cause and effect, ignoring all defenses and evasions. No matter how the enemy dodges, the target will be hit."

"Reverse space and attack the enemy from different directions simultaneously, leaving them with no escape."

As he continued to explain, he found that the other party had learned all his moves and used them properly. Scathach stopped at the right time, chuckled and asked:

"How far into the future can you see during combat?"

"About six seconds."

"Farther than me, but do you know why you couldn't hit me?"

Indeed, her absolute speed and agility were not superior to his, but she just couldn't hit him.

Bai Mu pondered for two seconds and then spoke slowly:

"You lack combat experience, so you haven't integrated the techniques into your body and turned them into instinct, right?"

"Yes, that's it, so—come again!"

Scathach let out a light cry and attacked again with her gun.

"Your talent is so exceptional that no one in the Age of Gods can match it. Perhaps because of this, you've never encountered a serious opponent in the past, always winning with ease."

"Although you've shown a lot of signs of cultivation, you haven't fully developed your potential. What a waste! What a waste!"

"Don't hold back, fight with the determination to kill me!"

What a monster. The predictive skills that others can only master after experiencing countless life and death experiences are just trivial skills that he doesn't care about.

Among my many disciples, only Cu Chulainn had a glimpse of the Spear of Karma. He actually learned it at a glance.

Perhaps, only a monster like this can truly kill me!

Looking at the shadows of spears filling the courtyard, and the young man who was gradually catching up with his master's movements and whose skills were becoming stronger and stronger, Cu Chulainn unconsciously tightened his grip on his spear, and his breathing became a little rapid.

At this moment, the excitement in his heart was beyond words.

I didn't expect that there would be such a monster in the world that could learn anything in one go. It looked ridiculously strong.

Perhaps, he will be able to defeat his master soon.

No, it should be said that he will definitely surpass his master.

With enough time, even the gods would be surpassed one by one by a monster like this.

But it is precisely because of this that it is worth pursuing, even if it takes a lifetime.

"No, I have to continue my training. When I challenge him again tonight, I have to be able to at least withstand a few of his moves."

On this day, Baimu fought with Scathach in the Shadow Realm until nightfall.

At first, he couldn't touch the edge of her clothes at all, but by the evening, three out of ten shots could already touch her body, and at the same time, each shot carried the power of cause and effect that was sure to hit.

Having said that, when both sides are sure to be hit by a gun, the competition is about avoidance ability.

Although it is called a sure hit, there is actually a possibility of avoiding it.

Hiding in space, avoiding the inevitable gunshot, using the gun tip to counter the gun tip, using the inevitable gunshot to offset the inevitable gunshot...

Bai Mu also uses the space gun very skillfully, which is similar to Kojiro's Swallow Return but has some differences.

Considering that it was getting late and that Scathach still had a lot of skills to learn, Baimu and Medea stayed in Scathach's castle.

Chapter 272 I'm waiting for you to kill me in the Land of Shadows

The days of training in the Kingdom of Shadows are actually quite interesting.

Although there is no sunlight here, it is dark and damp, full of wild beasts and undead, the land is barren, with no stars or moon, there are still many living people.

Outside Scathach's castle, there are many natural dangers and it is surrounded by seven high walls. The only regular road through the castle is the "Disciple Bridge" equipped with many mechanisms.

Many people who came to Scathach to learn skills failed to pass the bridge test, but they did not leave. Instead, they settled down in groups on the spot.

Every day someone tries to challenge the suspension bridge. Although the test is very difficult, occasionally someone will pass the test and become Scathach's disciple.

This bridge is also a place to practice the salmon leap.

As a unique skill of the Shadow Kingdom, Baimu also pulled Medea to try it.

However, with the Navy Six Styles as a foundation, it was easy to jump over the barrier.

Medea, however, felt that it was too difficult and since she was not a fighter, she chose to give up without even thinking of trying.

Having said that, because Baimu always took her with him during training, Medea also learned the 24 runes taught by Scathach by attending.

In his daily spare time, Baimu would take Medea for a stroll to familiarize himself with the environment of the Kingdom of Shadows and watch the practice of many disciples.

"Hmm...why does everyone call magic magecraft?"

That evening, during dinner, Medea suddenly asked this question.

As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that everyone around her had strange expressions on their faces, and Medea felt inexplicably guilty.

He gently pulled Bai Mu's arm and asked in a low voice:

"Did I ask a stupid question?"

"Don't worry, little girl. Most people really can't tell the difference between magic and sorcery."

Scathach chuckled and then explained:

"In the Age of Gods, people always referred to magic as sorcery."

"But after the gods left, people gradually realized the difference between magic and sorcery, and then made a strict distinction between them."

"There are only five kinds of magic in this world. Everything else is just magic."

"And the magic in this world is divided into two types: magic of the Age of Gods and modern magic."

"To be honest, both have their own strengths and weaknesses, but since Age of Gods magic is more mysterious, the generally accepted view is that Age of Gods magic is more powerful, while modern magic has more variety."

It turned out to be the case.

Medea thought thoughtfully, "Mystery makes [mystery] more noble. This is common sense in magic... in the magic world."

"Thank you, Teacher Scathach."

"You're welcome, just some common sense."

Scathach finished the delicious food on the plate with elegant and quick movements, then turned to look at the white screen, her eyes full of anticipation:

"Then, continue the fight."

"Although I have accepted many disciples, you are the only one who has the potential to kill me."

"Perhaps, in the near future, I will finally reach the true end."

"To be killed by my own disciple, wielding the magic spear I gave to him, has always been my wish."
