Chapter 39 [Reaper] on the shoulder of the [Successful Bird] (for further reading)
The power of ripples.
The second realm of the golden cross cut.
A more advanced power-generating technique than the power of vibration.
Until the moment he mastered this power, Li Wei didn't know that the world of kendo is so wonderful.
"Knight Fred said that if you master the power of ripples, it is equivalent to mastering a sword skill that is at least an excellent level."
"With the help of my excellent black snake breathing method, coupled with the excellent golden cross slash, and the third-level frost wolf breathing method, I don't know how far my strength has reached. Fred should come back soon. Now, when the time comes, we have to learn from Knight Fred."
"However, what I have mastered is only the preliminary power of ripples. Fred has been immersed in ripples for more than ten years. Maybe he has mastered the power of advanced ripples. I can't be proud."
Li Wei felt comfortable in his heart, and the emotion that had been suppressed for too long was fully released with the successive breakthroughs in the breathing method and the golden cross cut in the past two days.
"The stage of knights can be divided into four ranks: low-level knights, middle-level knights, high-level knights, and peak knights. When it comes to the stage of great knights, there is no so-called division of ranks. I have just broken through now, so it should be only low-level A high-level knight, but his real strength should be at the level of an intermediate level."
Li Wei wanted to test his own strength, but there was no one in Naihe's territory who was his opponent.
Moreover, it is difficult for Li Wei to use the ultimate move of the golden cross cut against his own people.
"Forget it, go forging the iron first to stabilize your realm."
Today's Li Wei has regarded forging as a means to cultivate his sentiment and strengthen his state of mind.
Forging is a technical job, and it is also a job that tests patience and concentration.
In Li Wei's view, breathing practice and forging complement each other and promote together, and are especially suitable for practicing together.
The furnace ignited, the bellows bulged, and the dagger obtained from the unknown killer was remade by Li Wei.
Crackling, ping-pong-pong.
Under the blast furnace, Li Wei was sweating.
Time passed slowly, and a pitch-black dagger gradually took shape under Li Wei's temper.
After a series of quenching and other processes.
[Forging proficiency +2]
In Li Wei's hand, there is already an extra dagger.
Compared to the weird and curved shape of the previous dagger, the shape of Li Wei's recast dagger is closer to the bronze dagger of his previous life during the Warring States Period, which is quite satisfactory.
Li Wei played with it for a while, and even tried to use advanced power-generating techniques such as the power of ripples, and finally succeeded.
As Knight Fred said, the Golden Cross Slash is more like a power-generating skill than a sword skill. If it really reaches a certain level of inscrutable, it is a hammer, or even a Gatling , can use the power of ripples.
However, today's Li Wei can only use the power of ripples through this sharp-edged weapon.
And he found that, compared to his own sword Frostmourne, this dagger was more likely to withstand the torment of the ripple force.
"It's still a material problem. Frostmourne is just made of ordinary iron. Although the workmanship and quality are good, it is obviously not enough to use the power of ripples as you like."
"It would be great if there were those high-tech alloys from the previous life."
"When I have a chance in the future, I still have to use better materials to forge an exclusive saber for myself."
After the forging was over, Li Wei returned to the castle and began to build a secret room in the castle.
…
In the early morning of the next day, Knight Fred returned to Black Snake Castle with a group of people.
Li Wei went out to greet him, and said with a smile, "How is the situation?"
"Master Li Wei, fortunately, he did not disgrace his life."
After Knight Fred dismounted, he handed a bag to Levi.
Li Wei opened it and looked, and found a bottle of ambergris and a pile of gold coins.
"Thank you Fred."
In this way, Li Wei's heart that has been hanging has also been relieved.
Think about it, too. As an official knight, Fred Knight, if he doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, how can accidents usually happen.
"Is the ambergris from the Emerald Chamber of Commerce available now?" Li Wei asked.
Knight Fred shook his head: "No, the people from the chamber of commerce said that ambergris was out of stock for a long time, and I found out the reason after some inquiring. The dragon's breathing method practiced by the royal family such as the White Horse Knight also needs If ambergris was used as a secret medicine material, it would have been okay in the past, but because of the Millennium Jihad, the Tuva Empire, which is the main producing area of ambergris, has banned the export of ambergris to the Emerald Kingdom. The number of land dragons in the Emerald Kingdom It is pitifully rare and almost extinct, making ambergris more and more scarce."
"If this goes on, we may have to go to the Tuva Empire to get ambergris in the future." Fred Knight said.
Li Wei frowned. He didn't expect that the war would affect him in this way.
"However, the existing ambergris is enough for me to use for a while, and I'm not in a hurry, but I have to find a way to solve it. The black snake secret medicine is very helpful for practicing the black snake breathing method. It not only increases the speed of practice, but also It can continuously enhance my physique, and the medicine cannot be stopped.”
Levi thought about it.
"By the way, it seems that you have been promoted to an official knight, Master Levi." After returning to the meeting room, Knight Fred asked with a smile.
"That's right, Fred, just a few days ago, I officially became a knight and condensed the seed of life."
Li Wei didn’t hide anything from Knight Fred. Knight Fred was someone he could trust. If he had any ulterior motives, his young self would have died countless times.
"Being an official knight in three years, your speed is no less than that of a genius like your father. If your father saw your current achievements, he would be so happy, but it's a pity..." Fred Knight was a little emotional.
"It would be great if the master is still alive." He couldn't stop murmuring.
After the master and servant are sentimental.
Levi told Knight Fred about the assassination that night.
Knight Fred blamed himself extremely first, because he was not by Li Wei's side, which led to the assassination accident.
Then he held the bird's beak mask, with a dignified expression, and said slowly.
"This is the death bird mask."
"Sue the dead bird?"
"Well, according to the rumors, the Death Bird is a black divine bird standing on the shoulder of the God of Death. Once the Death Bird crows, people will die. It looks like a crow. There is an organization, and their members will be killed by death. Walk around the world with the appearance of a bird face, accept huge commission fees from others, and assassinate anyone, no matter if they are civilians, nobles, or even the royal family."
"This organization is extremely mysterious. In the history of the kingdom, their shadows can be seen in some major events."
"This organization is called the Voice of the Death Bird. It is rumored that the founder of this organization is a legendary knight."
"Which one?"
"Knight of a Thousand Faces, Nameless!"
