Banshee? No, an ogre!

Chapter 13 ：Developing Capacity and Harvesting

Water plus lightning can actually make fire.’

This discovery really made Og feel a bit perverse.

In his impression, water and fire were not allowed.

‘Could it be, is it related to those bubbles from before? Is it electricity that turns water into gas? And then the gas burns?’ Og keenly perceived the key point.

Og drew out his hand and began to ponder.

‘Wood burning leaves ash, fire doesn't come out of nowhere, but this fire doesn't seem to leave anything behind when it burns ......’

Og returned his gaze to the water basin pondering to himself, ‘Perhaps the water is the “ash” produced by the burning of this gas.’

Unfortunately, Og didn't think for a moment that this discovery would do anything.

He vaguely felt that Self had grasped something, but he was not sure what the use of that feeling of Self was.

‘And how does the flame burning ...... just now feel like my sense of pain has even increased.’

If Og had internal vision he would have realised - the nerves in his body had become several times more numerous.

It was these special nerves spread throughout his body interspersed in his muscles that allowed him to master his muscles for power generation.

This was also the true source of the intense pain he was experiencing before.

‘Aiya, annoying ...... these things, it should be given to the Truth Church's g**g of warlocks to study, it's better to find a Truth Warlock to help develop it later when he becomes stronger.’

Og shook off his head and stopped thinking about it in detail.

Starting to force himself to ignore the discovery he just made.

But since water would create an explosion, Self could only try a different conductor.

Og crouched down and drew a box from under the bed - it held a portion of his savings.

Casually, he drew a gold coin from it, but after thinking about it Og put it back, choosing to take out two silver coins and ten copper coins.

He was going to try these materials.

Pinching up the silver coins, Og then began to inject electricity into them.

Prick-la-

With the infusion of electricity, sparks suddenly grew on the silver coins again, which made Og stop the current transfer once again.

He picked up the silver coin and looked under his eyes, and realised that it was the place where he had pinched it with his own two fingers where the current had burnt a little black.

‘Silver anti-electricity?’

Og felt a trace of indescribable defiance, he clearly remembered reading somewhere that metal was the best object for electricity transmission.

The silver coins within the country of Ngodo were refined by manipulation mages, and the purity was entirely based on the mage's ability to refine it.

‘No, that's not right, it's as if there's something inside the silver that stops the electricity and turns the energy into a flame-like damage ......’

Og scratched his self-same head.

It felt like something had gone to his brain, as if he had discovered something, and as if he had discovered nothing.

‘Does this mean that people get hurt, also because something is cancelling out the electrical conflict?’

Og put down the silver coin and picked up the copper coin, but after thinking about it, he put it back down and walked towards his pouch and pulled out his special little hammer.

Ogg felt that the silver coin was not good enough, and reckoned that the copper coin should be about the same.

So he planned to directly exchange it for a larger experimental prop.

Ogle's small hammer was black in colour.

The shape was slightly unique.

At a glance, rather than a hammer, it looked more like a small hammer used by an artisan stonemason.

One end of the hammer was a cone, and one end was a square and round hammer.

The body of the hammer was not very long, from top to bottom the length of the hammer was only longer than the length of Og's arm.

The only thing that stood out was the end of the hammer's handle, where there was a rather large loop to hold two fingers, which was rather eye-catching.

As a whole, it was still quite mediocre, but it was the weapon that Og used the most smoothly, and his use of the hammer was far better than any other weapon - this also had something to do with Yarde, who had taught Og the technique.

Paladins are good with hammers and swords.

As for Og's g*n and stick technique, it was something he had learnt specifically for the ring.

In that environment, the stick was better.

And in an environment like the Demon Forest, a hammer that wasn't very long was a good weapon to use, and the ring at the end was just enough to hang a rope for throwing attacks with.

‘I'll try again ......’ After taking out the weapon, Og immediately held the end of the hammer, and then began to discharge electricity.

Blue electricity jumped out from between Og's palms and climbed up the body of the hammer in leaps and bounds.

In just an instant, the small, ordinary hammer in Og's hand immediately turned into a dazzling lightning weapon.

‘It can really be passed out ......’

Og's hammer was specially made with the help of the blacksmiths affiliated with the gladiatorial arena, and the whole thing was made of strong refined iron.

It was only dark and unremarkable because it was mixed with ebonised steel powder.

But that was exactly what Og wanted, unremarkable was good, the weapon only needed to be strong enough.

‘It'll stretch my lightning, but why does a tiny silver coin explode sparks.

And how come a hammer that long is fine?

Could it be that ...... current is actually the same nature as water flow?

The thicker the object the easier it conducts instead, just like the width of a river?’

Og summarised the law that Self had discovered.

He wasn't sure if what he had discovered was completely accurate, and he could vaguely feel that there was something missing in his guess.

But lacking the knowledge in this area, it was difficult for him to continue his reasoning even if he thought about it.

The main reason was that most of the books Og read were actually of the magical creature encyclopaedia type, and he preferred to read those books as recipes.

‘Forget it, let's just use it as a killer weapon for melee combat.’

Og thought carefully and still couldn't think of any particularly great use for the ability to discharge electricity, without fighting in the water, it really didn't seem to be of much use.

Og can feel that the ability to discharge electricity has potential development value.

However, with Og's sixteen-year-old brain, he really couldn't think of how to develop and use it to great effect - his intelligence and talent were more used in combat.

It was really difficult for Og to be a researcher.

‘The main thing is that I wasn't able to use my spiritual power to constrict lightning into a specific form to attack like a mage ......’

Og came to the conclusion that he attributed all the points of the bad use of thunder power to the fact that Self couldn't hit long range.

Can only melee discharge, compared to the really not a little bit worse, the only useful, is self can attach a handsome looking fake magic to the weapon.

‘But ...... if this material can conduct, I might be able to get a chain?’

Ogg once again imagined the image of attacking with a chain.

But in the end, he put down the idea for the time being.

Chain weapons still needed practice, and using them badly would be hitting oneself.

Ough felt that ...... there shouldn't be any guy who would think of directly using a chain as his main weapon either.

‘Feeling, this ability doesn't seem to be as good as high speed vision.’

Ogg felt that he had lost his plan this time, wasting a chance to eat was not the most difficult.

The hardest thing was that his muscle strength had dropped a bit.

‘It feels like the muscles are still a bit sore ......’

Og moved the muscles of his body, the continuous discharge just now made him feel a little tired.

Discharging electricity required physical support.

A slightly sustained ordinary current, Og could discharge for a long time, but that kind of killing discharge where half of the body's muscles ‘fired’, Og found after estimating it that Self could only continuously discharge for five minutes at most.

If it was the kind of discharge that could electrocute himself at full power, it would not work for a minute at most.

Of course, it could only be released for a minute, if it wasn't soaked in water, Oggy really couldn't use his full strength.

Perhaps when his physique adapted later, he would be able to discharge electricity recklessly.

Regardless of whether it was a human or an ogre, they would all be resistant to the attacks they were often subjected to, and Ogre's physique was somewhere in between the two.

It shouldn't take too long to adapt to this strength of full power current, provided that Self's lightning ability doesn't continue to get stronger.

‘Wait ...... this soreness, why does it feel so much like after a workout.’

Og rubbed Self's neck, and suddenly associated it with Self's usual post-workout symptoms.

A martial artist's training, apart from regulating and balancing the three qi and practising martial arts, was to exercise, constantly exercising, eating, resting, and then just reincarnating the process.

As long as one ate enough and well enough, and then gradually increased the intensity of the workout, and recovered well enough, one would be able to improve their physique.

As for meditation, it was classified as part of rest, and focused meditation could better restore physical strength and exercise the spirit.

If there was no knight physique.

The training of a martial artist can usually only follow the golden period of the body, and after the golden period before becoming a professional, the basic physical strength will come to an end.

The golden period of the body is divided into different men and women and different personal talents, but the golden period of ordinary people is still very clear.

Take human males for example.

Under the premise of ensuring nutrition.

The golden period for flexibility training is usually between the ages of five and eight and twelve and fourteen, when the bones, ligaments, muscles, and fascia are growing and have a high degree of plasticity.

The prime time for speed training is between the ages of seven and nine, and thirteen and sixteen, which is a good time to improve speed.

As for strength training, it can be done between the ages of twelve and twenty-five, but the intensity has to be lower at a younger age.

The final endurance training is best done between the ages of twelve and fourteen, and seventeen and twenty-two.

Missed this time, the effect of exercise will not be so good, the hope of becoming a professional martial artist in this life is also slim.

(Note: Scientific exercise and reasonable recovery are the fundamentals of being able to get strong, do not train recklessly.)

Og missed part of the so-called golden period.

But Ogle has far more than ordinary people's gastrointestinal digestion and recovery ability.

He could eat, recover, and naturally hold on to stronger training.

Relying on this training intensity that surpassed normal people plus Yade's guidance, Og became the strongest martial arts apprentice in this small city in the borderland in just two years.

But no matter how much training is done, there is still a limit, and Ogle had already touched the bottleneck of his own body a month ago.

The ever-increasing weight plus the longer training time had resulted in a smaller improvement.

That was why Og, as a hexagonal warrior, had developed the idea of using a f*******n magic potion.

It was really that the body's enhancement was already at its limit.

And the cultivation of qi and blood was slow to see results.

When Og wanted training feedback, he had to spend more than half a day to get results - there was no way, the endurance was too strong.

If his body wasn't still in its formative years, it would have been difficult for Og to even feel the slightest improvement.

If he didn't succeed in twisting the three qi into qi, blood, and anger, Oog's path as a martial artist would indeed basically come to an end.

But now, he actually felt tired in such a short period of time - this meant that there was still room and hope for him to improve!

‘Is it the damage caused by this type of power generation, or is it the lightning stimulation that produces the effect, or both?’

Yarde had told Og what the essence of a workout was-

Exercise was the process of breaking bottles and gluing them back together, the process of carving out bigger caves, a cycle that almost all professions couldn't escape.

Break, repair and then get bigger.

As long as you're not hurting the root of the problem and can recover from it in a short period of time, that's what creates the workout effect.

This is why, once you get older, it's easy to get bottlenecked, because whether it's mental or physical, there's a period of decline.

When they couldn't recover, they naturally couldn't improve.

It wasn't just humans, it was the same for magical creatures as well.

‘No matter what the reason is, if it can have a workout effect, then it's a good ability!’

Ogg didn't care what the principle was, as long as it worked well anyway, it was done.

Originally, he had stopped his physical exercise and switched to training in martial arts.

However, the discharge ability brought by the Electric Light Eel had reopened the window for Og.

If the physique could be infinitely strengthened under this positive cycle, then Og felt that even if he didn't become a so-called professional, he could still have strength comparable to that of a professional with the support of his natural ability!

It was important to know that the strength of the discharge ability was linked to the strength of Og's body.

For Og.

Thunderbolt Forging was actually far more practical than having an additional long range skill.

Although he didn't know where the limit of this method was, as long as there was room for improvement that was always good.

‘It's also true that I'm a bit hungry ......’ Ogre turned his gaze to the remaining honey.

Well, it looks like it's time to eat sugar again.

Picking up the edible water bladder, Og had already made plans to fight the sugar.

‘Better go out and buy more meat next time ......’

......

After two and a half hours of trying to ‘exercise’.

Og could feel what seemed to be some improvement in every aspect of his self body.

However, Og wasn't sure if this feeling, was false or not, he had this feeling every time he worked out until he was half dead before.

But practically at the back, even with the breathing method, the improvement was close to nothing.

The only significance of exercising seemed to be reduced to maintaining the status quo.

‘If the body doesn't have a limit to progress, then it's fine, if you don't become a professional, you're still just an ordinary mortal after all ......’

The treatment of a professional in Engordo was almost a counterpart to that of a noble, except for the lack of a fiefdom, the respectable status that a professional could receive was far higher than that of the average commoner.

It was considered transcendent in every sense of the word.

From this, it was also clear that no matter which race one was in, strength would always be the fundamental determinant of discourse, and knowledge and power were just another kind of strength.

‘But this efficiency is indeed good.’

With just his first attempt, Og made a considerable gain in those two and a half hours.

During the period of exercise, Og also figured out another use for his own ability.

This was much more enjoyable than his previous weight-bearing exercises.

Train well, eat well, and rest well, were the words Yarde gave Ogle.

Ogle had now completed the first two steps, and it was time for him to take a good rest.

It was still dark at this time, Og simply tidied up his room and sat on his bed.

He flipped open, another of today's harvests - the Deadwood Meditation Thoughts.

‘Hopefully, this can bring me some help.’ Oog muttered to himself.

With the three Qi unification, Og was no longer having the desire to try it, but he still had a hint of fantasy about the planting of the Heart Image Seed.

This fantasy originated from the Ruling Knight Badge that Yarde had gifted him .

Og was looking forward to the day he met with that mysterious magus.

After reading the entire not-so-thick meditation.

Og habitually adjusted the rhythm of his mind with his breathing technique again .

Finally, Og formally closed his eyes and began his exploration of this book of meditations ......
