Chapter 126 Why Muscles Can Get So Big! (Two Chapters in One)

Chapter 126 Why Muscles Can Become So Big! (Two chapters in one)

With the improvement of Ryan's perception after he became a wizard apprentice, he could vaguely sense the powerful physical strength contained under the armor of these four silver knights holding swords and shields.

Obviously, these four people are not ordinary cavalry, but genuine knights who have entered the extraordinary.

Ryan had heard Hamilton say that not only the Monsoon and Ocean Goddess Church, but also other churches, the knights who have entered the extraordinary are collectively called Templar Knights, and those below the extraordinary are called Templar Guards.

In order to eliminate the evil knights, four Templar Knights were sent out at once?

What a powerful goddess church!

Is there another purpose? For example, to explore the reason for the appearance of the evil knights? Ryan couldn't help but guess.

In addition, there are two official knights wearing relatively simple knight plate armor. Judging from the emblem on the chest, they should be the guard knights of a certain noble, and one of them is also equipped with a rare round arm shield.

As Ryan approached, he met many familiar faces of the Night Watchmen along the way. He smiled and greeted them one by one, and his colleagues in the Night Watchmen also smiled and waved in response.

At this time, Hamilton came out with two "big shots". Judging from his figure that was a little behind, the status of these two people was higher than Hamilton.

One of them was an old man wearing a water blue robe with gold edges and holding a heavy book. Judging from his clothes, he should be the person in charge of the Goddess Church for this mission.

The other was a middle-aged man wearing knight armor and a mustache. Judging from the shape of the knight armor, he should be a noble. The two knights just now should be the other party's guard knights.

Hamilton obviously also saw Ryan and Lagre coming towards him.

Maybe Ryan was not so noticeable, but Lagre, as a rare "woman" and the "big shield" behind her, were quite eye-catching.

If it were before, Ryan, as a Night Watchman, would naturally have no chance to be introduced.

But today was different. Since he had entered the supernatural realm at a young age, he was qualified to be introduced by Hamilton.

"My Lord Viscount, Your Excellency the Priest, this is Ryan, the deputy sheriff of Shining Gold Town that you just issued." Hamilton said with a smile.

"Ryan, this is Lord Viscount Hamadi, the sheriff of the county city, and this is His Excellency Priest Rudolf of the Goddess Church."

"Good day, Lord Viscount."

"Good day, Your Excellency the Priest." Ryan bowed slightly.

At the same time, he was still very surprised. The sheriff of the county city? This is the boss of his immediate boss. He didn't expect that the other party would come here in person because of the evil spirit knight.

Moreover, Hamilton just said that his deputy sheriff has been issued?

This is good news. After all, the higher the level, the more information and resources you can get. Ryan thought.

When they heard that Ryan's position was promoted from the captain of the Night Watch to the deputy sheriff of Goldshire, the Night Watchmen and the sheriffs were stunned for a moment, but the next second, they returned to their original state, with a natural expression.

Some of the Night Watchmen even had a look of joy on their faces, as if they were promoted.

Some were whispering something, as if they were explaining the situation to some people who didn't understand it yet.

Ryan's strength is one thing, but the most important thing is that at this age, Ryan treats people very well, is not arrogant, and can fight hard battles. After several missions, many of the Night Watch colleagues are very impressed by this young man.

For example, when exterminating the evil fin fishmen, Ryan's task was the heaviest, and he had to block the retreat of all the scattered fishmen by himself. Although the number of fishmen exceeded expectations by a lot, Ryan still gnawed the hard bones.

This was especially true in the rescue of the kidnapped children. All the night watchmen who participated in the mission gave Ryan a thumbs up. He killed those tough criminals alone and rescued more than 20 children.

This made the night watchmen who participated in the mission admire him from the bottom of their hearts.

If it weren't for Ryan, they didn't know how many people would die!

Seeing this scene, Lagre's eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance.

Although she had known about it before at the training ground, she really didn't expect that Ryan would be so popular among the night watchmen in Shimmering Gold Town!

Just as Ryan was chatting with the "big shot", a pair of beautiful eyes were quietly looking at Ryan through the window of the carriage not far away.

A few minutes ago, Miss Jenny of the Crowley family took a carriage through the town administration hall and headed south. The destination was naturally Ryan's home.

Her mother, Viscountess Crowley, had been urging her to communicate more with Ryan and maintain a good relationship.

From her own perspective, she also had a good impression of this handsome boy, but unfortunately, Ryan rejected his mother's proposal last time.

Since knowing that Ryan was interested in spiritual writing, Jenny often went to the family library.

This time, she happened to find another old book written in spiritual writing (i.e. Akkadian), and she thought she could show it to Ryan.

Of course, Jenny's main purpose was to give Ryan more opportunities to communicate by sending books.

In addition, in order to facilitate the communication between Ryan and the Crowley family, Jenny specially prepared a pair of blue-helmeted pigeons. This kind of carrier pigeon is extremely fast, and there is a small tuft of blue feathers on its head, as if it is a knight's helmet, so it is called a blue-helmeted pigeon.

At this moment, the pair of blue-helmeted pigeons were quietly staying in the birdcage at her feet.

Hearing the noise nearby, Jenny saw the lively scene at the door of the town's administrative hall through the window of the carriage. Four rare Templar Knights of the Goddess Church made Jenny quite curious and looked at them carefully for a while.

"Hey, isn't this Ryan?" Jenny saw Ryan greeting the Viscount.

Ryan had taken off his knight's helmet out of politeness, so Jenny naturally recognized him at a glance.

"Caso, pull the carriage over." Jenny said to the coachman, Casto.

"Yes, Miss Jenny."

The carriage stopped steadily on the side of the road, and Jenny listened carefully.

Since Ryan and his men were all knights, their voices were not deliberately concealed, and Jenny, who was 20 to 30 meters away, could still hear them clearly.

'Secretary of the Sheriff of Shimmering Gold Town?' Jenny's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this.

As a noble lady, she naturally understood the series of appointments in the imperial administrative system.

Although the word "Secretary" is in the title of "Secretary", it is not simple if you consider Ryan's current age.

Competition within the imperial administrative system is naturally inevitable, but there is one kind of competition, that is, military merit has the highest gold content. As long as the military merit is enough, promotion will be smooth

. Ryan, who has no background, can now become a security deputy, which means that Ryan must have made a lot of real merits, otherwise, it would be impossible to get this appointment.

"Mother's vision is as good as always!"

"But, is Ryan going out?" Jenny frowned.

She came to Shimmering Gold Town this time to find Ryan, but she didn't expect that, looking at the current situation, Ryan might have some big tasks to perform with the Goddess Church.

This made Jenny inexplicably a little irritated.

"So you are Ryan, you are really young and promising!"

"I have read your resume, I didn't expect that you have completed so many difficult tasks not long after joining Hamilton. With your ability, Shining Gold Town is too small, have you ever considered coming to the county town?" Viscount Hamadi said with a smile.

Somehow, Ryan always felt that his boss's boss was a smiling tiger when facing him.

The smile was very hypocritical!

"Thank you for your compliment, Viscount, but the prices in the county town are too high. If I come to the county town, I am afraid I can't afford a house." Ryan smiled and declined tactfully.

Ryan's answer immediately made several people laugh.

"Viscount, although Ryan has completed many tasks, he is still too young after all, and needs more training. Let him stay with me for a while longer." Hamilton came to the rescue.

Priest Rudolf had not paid too much attention to Ryan at first, but after taking a closer look at Ryan and listening to Hamilton's introduction that Ryan was less than fifteen years old this year, he became very interested in Ryan.

Ryan also noticed the look in Priest Rudolf's eyes. Although the other party's eyes were very gentle, they had a faint sense of penetration.

"Ryan, are you interested in coming to the church and throwing yourself into the arms of the goddess? With your qualifications, I think you have a good chance of competing for the next godson of the county city."

Priest Rudolf would have been fine if he hadn't spoken, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he used a big move, which immediately surprised Viscount Hamady and Hamilton on the side.

They knew that Priest Rudolf, as the priest in charge of demon hunting and exorcism in the County City Ocean Goddess Church, was usually serious and had a rather old-fashioned personality.

Unexpectedly, the other party favored Ryan.

And the four Templar Knights couldn't help but turn their heads slightly and look at Ryan.

Others are not members of the church, and may not know the value of the word "godson" and its significance in the church.

But they know it best.

Every godson is a candidate for the bishop of the diocese.

In other words, if Ryan can become a godson, then he is likely to succeed the position of bishop of the Goddess Church in Mayest County.

The words of Bishop Rudolph also made Ryan feel flattered.

But Ryan never thought that he would believe in a god wholeheartedly. If he joined the church, he would probably become a blasphemer sooner or later.

After thinking about it, Ryan politely refused: "Thank you for your kindness, His Excellency the Bishop, but Lord Hamilton takes good care of me. Please forgive me for not being able to join your church."

At this time, Lord Viscount Hamady said: "It's getting late, Hamilton, since His Excellency the Bishop is here in person this time, you should accompany us to the Night Song Forest."

"This... What about the Shining Gold Town?" Hamilton hesitated.

"Haha, this is such a simple matter, why not let Ryan stay in Shining Gold Town!"

"Okay! Just listen to the arrangement of the Viscount." Hamilton thought for a moment and nodded.

"Ryan, then you stay in Shining Gold Town. If everything goes well, we will be back in the evening, or tomorrow at the latest. When I'm not here, the security of Shining Gold Town will be handed over to you."

Ryan was stunned by this.

No! I still want to harvest a wave of experience, why is

Ryan shouting in his heart, he really wants to refuse.

But in this occasion, it is obviously not possible.

After all, this order was issued by his boss's boss, and his direct boss Hamilton also agreed.

So Ryan could only say: "Yes, Lord Hamilton."

"By the way, Hamilton, if you are worried, I will let Andrews stay in Shining Gold Town as well. Now you are relieved." Viscount Hamadi said with a smile.

"Ryan, this is Knight Andrews." Viscount Hamadi pointed to the burly guard knight equipped with an arm shield.

"Hello, Sir Andrews."

"Hello, Sir Ryan." A deep voice sounded from the other knight's helmet.

Hey! This Knight Andrews is very powerful.

Ryan's perception told him that Andrews seemed to be a senior knight.

This made Ryan a little confused. Why did Viscount Hamadi let a senior knight stay?

But he didn't think much about it. Maybe Viscount Hamadi wanted to make Hamilton feel at ease?

Of course, this is unknown.

Before the team set off, Ryan and Lagre told them that it would be best if they could bring back the relics of her brother and companions. If not, then it was most important to ensure their safe return.

Soon, the team from the county town joined the team from the town of Shining Gold, and a mighty group of forty or fifty people headed towards the Night Song Forest in the west.

This time, Hamilton took away nearly twenty Night Watchmen, which was considered to be most of the defense forces of Goldshire.

After seeing off the team, Andrews said, "Sir Ryan, as the new deputy sheriff of Goldshire, can you take me around Goldshire? Although I have been to Goldshire several times, it was a long time ago."

Ryan naturally had no problem with Andrews' request, because it happened that the sheriff of the town had a routine, that is, to patrol around Goldshire on horseback every day.

Although this is more of a formality, it has been passed down to this day as a means of deterring the scoundrels.

Ryan often saw Hamilton taking time out to take two guards and the three of them patrolling on horseback together.

So Ryan nodded and agreed very readily.

"Of course no problem, Sir Andrews, please follow me."

Through chatting with Andrews, Ryan learned that the county city took the news of the 'evil knight' very seriously.

It's just that the entire Mayest County has been uneasy recently. The Monsoon and Ocean Goddess Church has sent several groups of people to other places. Just yesterday, a group of people returned.

Therefore, the team that came to the town of Shining Gold to investigate the evil spirit knight was a few days late.

Jenny, who was secretly happy that Ryan didn't have to go out on a mission this time, saw Ryan and a strange knight who she didn't know, actually riding horses and walking towards the edge of the town.

This made her heart tighten.

But from the slow speed of the two, Jenny soon realized that it seemed that Ryan was going on a routine patrol.

As a descendant of the nobility, of course, she knew that this was a routine for a sheriff.

So, Jenny thought about it and said to the groom, "Caso, you drive far behind Mr. Ryan, and let the two family cavalrymen wait here."

"Yes, Miss." The groom Caso quickly greeted the two family cavalrymen who were responsible for protecting Jenny behind him.

Jenny wanted to go forward directly, but there was one more person beside Ryan, and it was not a suitable time to deepen the communication, so she could only follow the groom far behind.

Jenny's eyes were always on Ryan. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that Ryan, wearing knight armor, was handsome and compelling, which made her heart beat faster.

Ryan and Andrews soon arrived at the edge of the town.

At this time, a female scream suddenly came from the town of Shining Gold.

Ryan narrowed his eyes and immediately turned his head to look at the side and back where the sound came from.

But suddenly, the alarm bells in his heart rang!

The level 3 danger perception told Ryan that the source of danger was actually next to him!

Is it Andrews?

"Oh no! "

'Iron Skin! '

Ryan didn't have time to turn his head. He just instinctively activated the second extraordinary characteristic 'Iron Skin'. Suddenly, he felt an attack with great power and burning heat, hitting his lower back!

"Bang!"

"Pop!"

The next second, he was blown off the horse's back like a cannonball and fell to the ground.

In an instant, a deep pit was smashed into the ground by Ryan, and smoke and dust rose everywhere!

Jenny, who was following far behind, had her beautiful eyes wide open, her hands tightly covering her mouth, and an expression of disbelief as she watched the scene in front of her.

Wasn't the strange knight next to Ryan the guard knight of Viscount Hamadi?

Why did he suddenly attack Ryan?

Moreover, she had just seen the other party's attack. She saw that a blazing black flame suddenly surged from the other party's palm, and hit Ryan's waist at a very fast speed, and even the knight's plate armor on Ryan was torn apart by one blow!

Oh my God! Ryan, who had just been appointed as the deputy sheriff, and the guardian knight that her family had just contacted, was ambushed and killed like this?

Goddess, how could such a terrible thing happen!

But something happened that frightened her even more.

The tall and thin knight who ambushed and killed Ryan had already set his sights on her carriage at this time.

"What a pity! The young knight genius will never have the chance to grow up."

"Hey! There are still a few spectators here, what a pity! You have seen something you shouldn't have seen, so I can only send you to accompany Ryan!" There was an indescribable pride in Andrews' voice.

The next second, Andrews shook the reins, turned the horse, and planned to kill all the witnesses in the carriage behind him.

Just as he was about to rush over, he suddenly froze, as if he had sensed something incredible.

Before he turned his head.

A voice that he thought he would never hear again sounded behind him.

"Sir Andrews, I didn't expect you to be a member of the Black Flame Cult!"

Ryan slowly climbed up from the big pit on the ground. At this moment, he was extremely embarrassed. The knight's breastplate given by Hamilton had been directly shattered by Andrews' black flame.

But surprisingly, there were no obvious scars on Ryan's body.

If you look closely, you can find that there is a little silver glimmer on the surface of his exposed skin.

Ryan silently added the skill points that he had intended to use to improve the basic meditation method to the limit breaking.

Instantly, the limit breaking value increased from 15% to 25%!

Andrews stared at Ryan in shock. The scene in front of him really shocked him!

"How could you take my full-strength attack of the black flame? And you are still safe and sound?!" Andrews couldn't help but blurt out and asked.

He was also shouting in his heart, how is this possible!

Even if it was a senior knight, he would be seriously injured after being hit by his sneak attack!

And Ryan, a little guy who just entered the extraordinary a few days ago, was actually fine?

What the hell!

Ryan certainly would not answer the other party's question. At this moment, he was already extremely angry, and at the same time,

he was a little scared. If he hadn't awakened the second extraordinary characteristic "Iron Skin", he would have been lying down forever.

Ryan had never suffered such a big loss!

So, taking advantage of the moment when the other party was stunned, Ryan instantly "broke the limit" and pulled out the two-handed sword behind him, and suddenly attacked Andrews with a "jump slash".

The purpose of opening the limit is naturally to keep up with the opponent's speed!

The 25% limit-breaking instantly increased Ryan's agility from 15 points to more than 18 points but less than 19 points.

When Andrews reacted, Ryan's two-handed sword was already above his head.

But Andrews is worthy of being a senior knight, a master with a limit-breaking of more than 30%. In a hurry, he used the arm shield of his left hand to block Ryan's attack!

"Dang!!!"

Although it was blocked.

But the impact of Ryan's attack made the horse under Andrews' crotch kneel down on all four legs, soft on the ground, and could no longer get up.

"What a rare knight genius. In just a few days, his physical limit has already reached the level of a senior knight." Andrews parried Ryan's sword with a gloomy face and said slowly.

"If you are given more time to grow, you will really become a big trouble for us."

"But, the farce can end here!" Andrews pushed Ryan's sword back with his left hand, showing disdain.

But then, Ryan once again attacked Andrews with a vertical 'Rage Slash' from top to bottom at 90 degrees!

"Do you think this will work?"

"Is it?" Before the word came out.

Andrews's expression changed drastically, as if he had seen a ghost!

Because at this moment, the muscles of Ryan he faced had expanded to the point that they had blown away all the broken knight's breastplate!

His muscles were like blowing air, and they were two circles bigger!

"Puff!"

Andrews' face was forever fixed on this expression.

"This is definitely not a formal knight who has just entered the supernatural realm. Even the muscle changes of the peak knights are not so exaggerated!!" This was Andrews' last thought before he died.

Ryan, who split Andrews in half with a sword, began to shrink rapidly and returned to normal size.

He inserted the glimmering giant sword heavily into the ground, leaning on it while gasping for breath.

At this moment, his muscles and fascia were in great pain, as if every muscle in his body was being torn apart bit by bit!

Just now, it was the first time that Ryan used the supernatural ability of the knights, the supernatural characteristic, the "huge force", and the "power burst" of 100%, in a triple superposition state.

Although it only lasted for less than two seconds and killed a senior knight with the ability to control black flames, the sequelae were also extremely serious.

As for why the triple burst was necessary, it was because Ryan had calculated after the opponent blocked the first sword he swung, and the opponent was a senior knight. The limit case was 60% limit breaking, plus 60% of the supernatural characteristic of strength, which was a maximum increase of 120%.

With the basic strength being similar, Ryan could only suppress his opponent with a triple burst and a 155% increase.

Although Andrews' extraordinary characteristics were not necessarily in terms of strength, and the increase might not reach 120%, Ryan did not want to make any more mistakes.

Jenny, who was in the carriage far away, opened her cherry mouth wide, enough to fit an apple, and her beautiful eyes were wide open, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

The grace of the sword just now was seen in her eyes and imprinted in her heart.

Oh my God!

Is Ryan a god descending to earth?

Why can his muscles become so big!

Too scary! No, it makes people feel safe!

In addition, the transition from near death to sudden survival was too fast, like a person who was about to drown, suddenly floated to the surface, and took a breath, which made Jenny's face flushed, and she rolled her eyes and almost fainted with excitement.

The groom, Casso, was also about to drop his jaw in shock, but after all, he was a man in his forties, so he quickly came to his senses and said, "Miss, should we go up and help? Lord Ryan looks very tired."

"Yes! Yes! Casso, we'll go right over."

Ryan endured the pain of muscle tearing and called up the panel to look at it.

[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, experience value +289]

[You have experienced a battle, Knight (Super) experience value +57]

The Knight (Super) panel has been successfully upgraded to Knight (Super) lv2 (43/300), and one attribute point and one skill point have been awarded.

Ryan did not hesitate to add one attribute point to his physique, and in an instant, his physique increased from 16 to 17.

Suddenly, a warm current gushed out from his heart and quickly spread throughout his body!

All of a sudden, the tearing, soreness and fatigue of Ryan's muscles disappeared!

Adding points is really useful!
