In the following days, I have been trying to restore the fifth-order Rubik's Cube. Compared with the third-order Rubik's Cube, the difficulty of the fifth-order Rubik's Cube is much higher. For the brain, each additional small cube consumes more mental energy when imagining.

It grows in a geometric progression, not to mention that you have to change the position of the blocks from time to time.

In fact, this is a relatively dangerous exercise. During the practice, I almost suffered from schizophrenia several times. Part of my brain blamed another part of my brain for not being able to imagine the Rubik's Cube well, and another part of my brain scoffed at the fact that this part of my brain didn't know how to do it.

Restore the Rubik's Cube.

Another time was even more serious. I spent a long time trying to solve the problem and found that what I had imagined in my mind was a fourth-order Rubik's Cube. What's even worse is that this was not a mistake or confusion on my part, but a deliberate act by that part of my brain.

, after I found out, it started to laugh at the other half of my brain.

Am I laughing at myself? Either I am crazy or the world is crazy.

In this case, my practice speed was seriously slowed down. I told Trazhuo about the situation, and he seemed very shocked and frightened. He strictly ordered me to rest immediately when this happened, and not to do it again within a day.

Conduct Rubik's Cube training.

Although I was itchy, I had nothing to do, and I didn’t want to take the risk of becoming schizophrenic, so I became more serious every time I trained, often making sure that I imagined the Rubik’s Cube vividly before starting to restore it.

It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. My brain power was further exercised by the detailed simulation, my consciousness became clearer, and my reactions became faster. In the end, it only took me seven days to fully master the restoration of the fifth-order Rubik's Cube, two days faster than expected.

Trazo told me that when he was still an apprentice, it took him half a month to reconstruct the fifth-level Rubik's Cube, and he even fell into a coma due to conflict of consciousness and excessive mental exertion.

He also warned me to pay attention to safety when exercising in the future. Brain damage cannot be cured by a bottle of potion or a rune spell. At the same time, he also said that if the fifth-level magic method is not enough, you can continue to add more.

, Level 7, Level 9, Level 11 to Level 13. The highest level of this training method is Level 13. If it is higher, you have to create it yourself and there is a high risk of mental disorder.

Finally, he warned me not to practice even-numbered Rubik's Cube and odd-numbered Rubik's Cube together as it would cause irreparable consequences.

At this time, we had walked two-thirds of the way, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was just right. I couldn’t wait to ask: “When will we start the training to find things?”

"Don't be anxious, kid, don't be anxious." Trazhuo patted my head and said sternly: "You have just completed the fifth-level Rubik's Cube training. Training under such circumstances will kill you."

He said seriously: "When doing things, you must do it step by step, and you must not rush ahead because of greed for success. Rune art also pays attention to success."

Although I was anxious, I had to admit that what Trazhuo said made sense, and I was indeed very tired, so the conversation and class that day ended in a hurry.

When I got up the next day, Trazhuo was already up. He was playing with a stone. When he saw me getting up, he suddenly asked: "How to boil a pot of water without firewood?"

I thought about it, pointed to a stone outside the car window and said, "Put that stone in the sun to heat it, and then use the connection technique to connect it to the kettle to conduct the heat energy to boil water."

"Why not just build Firth and trust that the water has boiled?"

"Come on, Trazo," I laughed. This trap was too obvious. "I'm not a fool." I chuckled and said, "Energy is not generated out of thin air. The mental power of my entire brain was converted into heat energy.

I can’t even boil a pot of water.”

Trazhuo nodded approvingly, "You have a good grasp, but you are a little wrong." He winked slyly, "If it is just a small pot, it can still be boiled."

The topic turned back to the problem, and Trazhuo said in his unique difficult tone: "It takes too long to boil water with stones, and the gap between the two is too big, and the loss is too serious. You should be able to find a better one."

There’s a way, Ah Hong.”

I realized that he might finally start to talk about the lesson I had been waiting for. My heart was beating wildly, but I still said unhurriedly: "Then I will call the name of fire and pray for its power."

Boil water."

Trazhuo laughed, "Are you calling the name of the elements just to boil water?" He raised his hand and made an exaggerated gesture, "But your idea is right." He looked at me, and the smile in his eyes told me.

I know exactly what I'm thinking.

"Then what should I do, Trazo?" I decided not to hide it anymore and begged him to tell me the secrets of everything in the world.

"First of all, I must understand what kind of learning you want to do." Trazo looked at me and stretched out two fingers, "There are two ways to learn. The first one is that I will take you to feel the flame, but you need to

If you try to communicate with it yourself, I'm not sure you can find the name of fire. In fact, many rune masters have failed to discover the name in their entire life, but it may be easy for others."

"What about the second one?"

"Ah, the second type, kid," he said with some disdain, "is pretty much what those mages did. They incorporated their real names into the spell, so everyone who knows the spell can borrow power, and I can do it like this.

, I will tell you the name of the flame directly, but this is an extremely crude and crude way of application, just like when you are doing math problems and applying formulas, you don’t know how the formula is derived, nor its principles.

"

"The first type." I didn't hesitate. This is what I have been looking forward to and pursuing, not a bunch of spells that pop up in the house according to Trazo.

Then I saw Terrazo whisper, "Fire", and a tiny flame appeared on his fingertips. My eyes widened because this scene was like something out of a magic story sung by bards.

Same.

I stretched out my hand cautiously, and a burning sensation came, tingling the pads of my fingers. It was indeed a flame. Although it was small, it was still a flame. It was floating on Trazhuo's fingertips. He smiled brightly, like

It's like you can't feel the heat at all.

Then he cast a rune spell to convey a strange feeling into my heart, and asked me to use a connection spell to connect to it, which I did.

Then I heard the flames and saw the flames.

At the moment of connection, the things in front of me quickly faded away. I couldn't see Trazo. All I could see were human figures and rivers made of flames. They were extremely real, and I could feel the heat radiating out. They were also extremely illusory, non-stop.

The ground was twisted, and some human-shaped flames passed through my body, but I was unscathed.

Various sounds of burning flames filled my ears, including the crackling of firewood, the whirring of gas stoves, and the constant blasting of guns.

These are all related to flames. When I was in it, I felt a unique violent, destructive but warm and gentle power. I felt it surrounded me and turned into a door. I felt that I was about to push it open.

I opened the door, but something was missing, like a familiar phrase that I couldn't say out loud.

Then all the fire illusions dissipated, Terrazo appeared again, and we parked and sat on the side of the road, lighting a campfire and preparing to eat.

At this time, a crazy idea came to my mind. I looked at the campfire, took out my kettle, and first quietly built a Firth to connect me to the water, and then connected me to the campfire.

Together.

Then I burned violently, and the flames flowed on the surface of my skin and were blocked by a faint blue light curtain.

I felt like my head was going to explode, and I almost fell into coma for a moment. The stinging sensation caused by the flames burning through my skin made me wake up a little. The water in the kettle was evaporating crazily, and then turned into water vapor.

But those are not important. The feeling before came back, and I was surrounded by flames again. This time I understood that the core part of the flame has nothing to do with destruction, creation, warmth, or cold.

That is fire. It is an element and a component that has existed since the beginning of the world. The so-called destruction, creation, coldness and warmth are all fires interpreted by humans.

Its essence is "flame". I said those two words lightly, but the feeling was completely different from when I said "flame" before. It is a common language, but it is not. This is a very strange feeling.

But I feel that this is not all of it. I feel that there is a deeper component hidden under the word "flame".

As if by mistake, I softly said: "auir"

Then I saw all the flames on my body, as well as the campfire, trembling violently.

Somehow, I can understand that they are trembling. Although it sounds ridiculous, I know clearly that they are trembling and afraid.

Then the flames on my body dissipated, and Terrazhu rushed over and slapped me, "Do you know what you are doing?" He was furious, "Fortunately, you still have some brains, you know how to make water first.

connect."

I have never seen him so angry. His whole body shrank into a ball with anger and was shaking with anger. He raised his hand as if he wanted to hit me, but he put it down again.

"If you hadn't interrupted in time, you would have turned into a charcoal by now! No one would be stupid enough to connect themselves with fire, no!" After saying this, he threw out the campfire and got in the car.

I didn't know what to say, so I packed up my things in the camp and got in the car.

In retrospect, I was really stupid to do this. If I had not connected to the kettle, or if the water in the kettle had evaporated, I might have been burned to a crisp in a very short period of time, too short for Terrazo to save me.

I.

We walked in this awkward atmosphere for about two hours before Trazo took a deep breath, sighed loudly, and turned to look at me.
Chapter completed!
