隨著迷霧沼澤任務的結算，C-17小隊的經濟狀況迎來了前所未有的寬裕。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fya8bDEfs
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSb18PhrLC
600枚銅幣，這筆鉅款如果用來吃藍色糊糊，夠他們吃上整整一年。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIRlgQBv63
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hFMyjY36j
但洪軒沒有存錢的習慣。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dXSmvqpuh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfy90fMA0S8
在他的觀念裡，躺在口袋裡的錢只是金屬，轉化為戰鬥力的錢才是資本。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde923qPQR0
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI1VVD14xG
第二天一早，四人便來到了學院集市最深處的一家打鐵舖。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2XLdtG9Yr
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo1L1XCmPg
這裡的老闆是一個擁有矮人血統的混血大叔，名叫巴隆，他的脾氣比爐火還暴躁，但手藝也是公認的好。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIIK7XTeLG
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxfMWFHgDC
「你們要修復這玩意兒？」巴隆嫌棄地用鐵鉗夾起那面已經裂開的岩甲蟹盾牌，隨手扔進了廢料堆，「這就是個垃圾！有機甲殼雖然輕便，但抗衝擊性太差，遇到鈍器就是碎！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ5Ig5cKeN
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqofdaYK2HG
「我們需要一面新的。」洪軒將一袋沉甸甸的銅幣放在沾滿煤灰的櫃檯上，發出令人愉悅的撞擊聲，「純鋼鍛造，摻入『黑鐵』粉末增加魔抗，背面要加裝雙層減震皮帶。重量不是問題，越厚越好。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQConPpf40
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMlIp1FYhr
Jack在旁邊用力點頭：「對！越重越好！我不怕重！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO4xeKNm86
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZXgyy4WrM
巴隆挑了挑眉，看了一眼這個像熊一樣強壯的地球少年：「小子，純鋼摻黑鐵，這面盾牌起碼有五十公斤重。你確定你拎得動？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaVUlFFOBg
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLMVgCSc9C
「五十公斤？」Jack咧嘴一笑，露出一口白牙，「才五十公斤？大叔，你儘管加料，一百公斤我也能扛著它跑五公里！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSU5Ue2noT
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ369QqsynoO
巴隆冷哼一聲：「狂妄的小子。200銅幣，三天後來拿。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MwRhj0eLJ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHL6SIy8mc
這是一筆大出血，幾乎花掉了他們三分之一的積蓄。但看著Jack那興奮得搓手的樣子，洪軒覺得這筆錢花得值。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhUyRz8cPi
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYUWGoMJ1q
盾牌的問題解決了，接下來是洪軒自己的修煉。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3UYh4WKB6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtrSxUINXZ
下午，圖書館二樓。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8fO5wErVz
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxnx7lhAUI
洪軒並沒有在研究機械結構，而是在翻閱一本名為《遲滯的種子：魔力覺醒障礙研究》的偏門書籍。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAF0AYxwSd
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE15JjfPVW
他在為Jack找路。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbwyPsXmoO
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd4jErqtnG
雖然黑火藥手雷讓Jack有了遠程輸出手段，但在這個世界，沒有魔力就意味著無法使用任何魔法道具，無法在身體表面形成防護膜（Mana Skin）。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoCEAwatpC
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJNs6Psafa
隨著敵人的等級提高，純粹的肉體凡胎就像紙一樣脆弱。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjM3xo5dtf
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlTXBXfkGe
「魔力阻斷症……經脈固化……精神力鈍感……」 洪軒看著書上的案例，眉頭越鎖越緊。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSGmGTyKA9
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONqicGvmSY
大多數案例的結論都是「建議轉行做後勤」或者「放棄」。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QDQn7a16B
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1GN7MBk2u
「還在為你那個大個子室友操心？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG5Cjz1r7W
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdZcCB7WTh
席爾薇雅的聲音如期而至。她今天似乎心情不錯，手裡把玩著洪軒上次給她的那截「莫比烏斯環」樣品。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsrH84INCB
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EbplcMUqA
「他的體格是完美的戰士胚子，如果因為沒有魔力而被淘汰，太可惜了。」洪軒合上書，坦然地看著她，「妳見多識廣，有沒有那種……強行刺激覺醒的方法？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaacYXSS5fH
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn2U7yrJh7
席爾薇雅坐在他對面，手指輕輕敲擊著桌面，發出清脆的聲響。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3aSJzBBQc
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuHqaFed4l
「有。」她淡淡地說道，「但很痛苦，而且危險。這叫『極限壓榨法』。在魔力濃度極高的環境下，將肉體逼至極限，迫使身體為了生存而本能地吸納元素。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmtNKeoG2H
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PROgW1Dm0
她頓了頓，目光變得有些深邃：「這通常是給死刑犯或者死士用的方法。成功率不到一成。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbGc94pI0c
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfQ7Z6CZU6
洪軒沉默了。一成。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuUubw4EQ4
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBD4WdmXnB
「不過，」席爾薇雅話鋒一轉，「我看過那個大個子的戰鬥。他在防禦時有一種特殊的直覺。他總是能在衝擊到來的前一瞬間，將重心下沉到最穩固的點。這說明他對『大地』的親和力其實很高，只是……他的『門』太厚了，推不開。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7Tm3omUDj
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAILh3YWMl
「那怎麼辦？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T7I27hlL2
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sC2Fr0qaX
「別讓他去感應什麼飄渺的風或者火。」席爾薇雅站起身，將一本薄薄的小冊子扔給洪軒，「讓他去撞。去感受震動。大地是最沉悶的元素，它不需要靈巧，只需要——承受。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJuEhw0AOu
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOANtUprcss
洪軒接過冊子，封面上寫著《初級重裝戰士呼吸法》。這不是魔法書，而是近戰職業的入門手冊。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvLjNzU7VK
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBrpaqrpqv
「這算是我對那個樣品的謝禮。」席爾薇雅轉身離去，「別誤會，我只是不想看到我的合作夥伴因為隊友太弱而死在下次任務裡。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop3KeKrzh1
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uLXdIbkg7
當天深夜，C-17宿舍後面的懸崖空地。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMKBjoSgk3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCkCtFOSvS
海浪拍打礁石的聲音震耳欲聾。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXYmA00g2d
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A93Dxi5Oa
「再來！」洪軒手持【風暴一號】，傘尖指著十米外的Jack。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFTPh5aycS
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBjWzk3ZQH
Jack已經氣喘吁吁，渾身是汗，但他依然死死地舉著那面臨時借來的木板盾牌，眼神堅毅得像一頭受傷的野獸。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6drEHM7jm6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySrB7f39gz
「準備好了！」Jack大吼。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOst8lvDxB
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuZXnkR7Zn
「Agni... Shot！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5iWJuSuVW
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQPgp85sRQ
這不是普通的訓練。洪軒在刻意控制出力，將火彈的威力壓制在「會痛但不致命」的程度，但衝擊力一點沒減。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHfUwVaUI3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6v0VVOsrL
嘭！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnGxPLMvZT
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDtUFSvpgS
火彈撞擊木盾，炸開一團火花。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgjQjpzojS
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoTyu3CvaK
巨大的衝擊力讓Jack後退了半步，雙腳在沙地上拖出兩道痕跡。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHLnGKwcXJ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdFJmTVYkt
「感受震動！」洪軒大聲喊道，複述著席爾薇雅的理論，「別去想什麼狗屁魔力光點！去感受衝擊力是怎麼順著盾牌傳到你的手臂，再傳到你的腳底，最後傳進地裡的！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsTpOFDCkh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPn7kNvDklh
「它是流動的！力量也是流動的！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv59wA8rZO
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw96gckD0L
Jack咬著牙，手臂已經被震得失去了知覺，但他腦海裡不斷迴響著洪軒的話。 傳導……腳底……大地……51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckeMoo7jwf
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9TCmjl20G
「再來！！」Jack嘶吼著，雙眼赤紅。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB3OO6dhMA
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZCjHs86H3
嘭！ 嘭！ 嘭！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPRL6BoOUb
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TLGWLrWT6
一次又一次的衝擊。 Jack感覺自己就像是一顆釘子，被一把名為「魔法」的錘子不斷地砸向地面。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JBRhwNQdE
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRSD5ISMwd
就在洪軒射出第十五發火彈的時候。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopM1v7xvA4
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIIeUVE7ax
Jack的體力到達了極限。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkjuA8jGCY
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc5KZ18HLL
他的意識開始模糊，視線裡的火光變成了重影。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48IaXNNbZ2
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOTWzQ1Jrv
但他沒有倒下。 在木盾即將破碎的那一瞬間，一種奇異的感覺從他的腳底板升起。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiBmOZ2De2
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna9biPB59E
那不是像風一樣輕靈的感覺，也不是像火一樣熾熱。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RGTcR4hlm
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWB4mYyeLQ
那是沉重。 就像是大地有了心跳。 咚……咚……51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUOBZEjUAh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0NKex8UDj
那股沉重的波動順著他的雙腿向上蔓延，與迎面而來的火彈衝擊力在盾牌上狠狠撞在一起。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVnP3iYpAh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6tcryr46e
「TERA！！」（土！）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jtf44RGX3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXE96QWPEW
Jack下意識地爆發出一聲怒吼，這不是單純的喊叫，而是帶著某種頻率的咆哮。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHqlleMGcN
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDVBET83Qj
轟！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpbaifsnUD
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMrFNFUZWc
神奇的一幕發生了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGyGTRr1XV
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz7kcoGlV0
並不是火彈爆炸。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7mkSMjW5o
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxnIcdRxsb
而是Jack腳下的沙地突然像液體一樣湧動起來，順著他的小腿迅速攀升，在一瞬間硬化，形成了一層像岩石一樣的灰褐色護腿！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eYa4f7tFX
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi81fmn9RR
雖然只有小腿部分，雖然只持續了兩秒鐘就崩解成了沙子。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS644hsvAX
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHbCcVEtaB
但那確實是魔法。 是土系防禦魔法——岩膚術（Stone Skin）的雛形！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMZ7mjTJCt
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlQM9TGvpo
洪軒停止了射擊。 Ravi和Kim從旁邊的草叢裡衝出來，震驚地看著Jack腿上殘留的沙土痕跡。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetGannvTL7
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ireJMElpN
Jack呆呆地看著自己的腿，然後抬起頭，看向洪軒，那雙佈滿紅血絲的眼睛裡湧出了淚水。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWK0RoXkH6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrUgBIS93K
「洪……你看見了嗎？」Jack的聲音在顫抖，像個得到糖果的孩子，「我有顏色了……我是土黃色的……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gWWFPpYwK
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQgsUsyamf
「我看見了。」洪軒走過去，重重地錘了一下Jack那寬厚的胸肌，眼眶也有些發熱，「我看見了。你是土系的，最硬的那種。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbKVr8oN3C
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2DAecpDkN
「哈哈……哈哈哈！」Jack突然仰天大笑，笑著笑著就變成了嚎啕大哭。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqknWB4wcqx
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYt9xmiKFyV
四個月的壓抑，四個月的自卑，四個月看著別人施法的無力感，在這一刻隨著眼淚宣洩而出。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEICH2AGrs
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuoHMTaSDs
他不是廢物。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX3Maucpzh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYyjo66Xtp
他也有資格站在這片大地上，為了回家而戰。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBk9GDZrVC
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPua7aqHmY
遠處的塔樓上，克萊門特導師站在窗前，手裡拿著一杯熱騰騰的咖啡。他看著懸崖邊那四個抱在一起又哭又笑的年輕人，嘴角微微抽動了一下。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZHYiKlTdR
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWXQV1TDaI
「笨辦法。」導師哼了一聲，「不過……也就是這種笨蛋，才活得久。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXSCsDHxec
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17h9PhjtDm
他在Jack的檔案上，將原本評定為「D-（淘汰邊緣）」的標記劃掉，改成了「C（觀察中）」，並在備註欄裡寫下： 特質：高壓下的鈍感共鳴。適合重裝防禦。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g5foIVwXm
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzcACuHUYM
這一夜，C-17小隊沒有人睡得著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRXND1iEmm
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8fqEyGrqe
Jack興奮地拉著Ravi講了一晚上的「大地的心跳」，直到Ravi困得在馬桶上睡著了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoi4QDjSDH
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzi0Wrhmnb
而洪軒躺在床上，心裡那塊大石頭終於落地了一半。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrilbKuVC3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr7UA0gdwH
Jack覺醒了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqQmvVmTR3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNHbTixONG
雖然是最笨重的土系，但這意味著他有了拿到「入場券」的資格。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLVe6JtY7K
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0FCpEFmYV
只要有了魔力，就能使用更高級的魔法盾牌，就能學習防禦戰技。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRfxR80J1o
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u939aSvZB
命運的門縫，終於被這個倔強的大個子用肩膀撞開了一道光。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1ZVxIY1ol
