Chapter 215 Communication (Two chapters in one)

The first time Ryan saw Captain Baron, he knew that he must be a great knight.

His muscles were knotted, his steps were very rhythmic, and his breathing was steady and powerful. He felt as if he was facing a volcano that was about to erupt, full of danger and the kind of power that was about to burst out.

Basically, Ryan was very sure that Captain Baron's strength was even higher than Volod.

He was at least a senior great knight, no, he was probably a peak great knight.

However, Ryan was still a little surprised at this moment.

Because he originally thought that the captain of the Fish Dragon Squadron, who belonged to the special department of the Navy, should most likely be a formal wizard, but he didn't expect that he was still a great knight.

Could it be that there are really so few formal wizards?

At least so far, he has never met one.

Or is there some other reason.

"Captain Baron, this is Baron Ryan, the governor of the fishing port town." Major Marika introduced: "Baron Ryan, this is Captain Baron of the Navy's 'Dragon Squad'."

"Captain Baron, hello." Ryan bowed slightly.

At this time, Captain Baron's voice sounded like the friction of rocks: "Baron Ryan, hello."

Captain Baron's tiger eyes were shining, and after looking up and down at Ryan, he nodded and said:

"Baron Ryan, it seems that the previous intelligence collection was wrong. Your strength is not that of a peak knight, but that you have already entered the ranks of a great knight." As

soon as Captain Baron finished speaking, the eyes around him looking at Ryan were obviously much hotter.

Especially the other five members of the Dragon Squad, they all cast their eyes on Ryan and kept looking at him.

"So it was a great knight!"

"No wonder Volod died at his hands."

"Before, I thought Baron Ryan was just a peak knight."

"Now it seems that the other party has master-level swordsmanship, plus the strength of a great knight, and there is a third-level wizard apprentice assisting him. Killing the injured Volod makes sense."

The team members whispered to each other and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

The Lehman brothers were very surprised by what Captain Baron said.

Because they were sure that just a few days ago, when Lord Ryan came to them for a sparring match, although the two of them did not resist for long together, at that time, from their feelings, Lord Ryan should not have reached the level of a great knight.

Could it be that Lord Ryan suddenly broke through in the past two days? The Lehman brothers were confused.

The same question lingered in Major Marika's mind, but she soon realized it.

Because she remembered that when Ryan was about to leave from Meister County, he took the wooden box containing the "Essence of the Giant Beast" with him when he left the mansion.

At that time, she had this question, why did Ryan take that with him when he went to the fishing port town to take up his post? Could it be that he was going to become a great knight? Thinking about it, it was unlikely.

But now it seems that she still underestimated Ryan.

In just these few days, Ryan had quietly broken through to the Great Knight, and he really deserved to be the first in this canonization assessment.

Facing Captain Baron's affirmative judgment, Ryan did not deny it, and smiled and said: "I just happened to have some insights these two days."

Captain Baron couldn't help but laugh when he heard Ryan say this.

If you want to become a great knight, there is no such thing as just having some insights. It's all a natural result after hard training!

"Baron Ryan, I think you are a rare talent in the Empire for being able to reach this level of strength at your age. It's a pity. I just heard from Colonel Marika that you declined the invitation from the Empire's South Sea Fleet."

"However, if I were you, I would also strive to join the Empire's 'Sword Bearers' organization. After all, the 'Sword Bearers' are stronger than our 'Tide Walkers' and have a wider coverage."

"Tide Walkers?"

Ryan thought about it. This was the first time he heard of this name.

"Yes, 'Tide Walkers', a special department of the Imperial Navy." At this time, Major Marika on the side introduced with a smile.

"I see." Ryan nodded.

This organization should focus on the security of the Empire's waters.

Captain Baron continued, "Baron Ryan, I want to thank you for your help this time. We completed the mission ahead of schedule."

For them, no matter who killed Volod, the mission was equivalent to completion.

Ryan nodded and asked, "Captain Baron, do you need to take Volod's body back?"

Ryan still recognized the favor of the Yulong team rushing to support immediately, so he was not stingy to do a favor for them.

Captain Baron laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Since Volod is dead, his body alone doesn't mean much to us."

"However, Sir Ryan can use this to collect a reward from the Imperial Navy."

"By the way, if you find something on the other party that may affect the safety of the Imperial Sea, Baron Ryan, please contact us as soon as possible. Of course, you can also contact Major Marika." "Okay

, Captain Baron, as a baron appointed by the Empire, this is also my duty." Ryan nodded, and he would naturally cooperate with this.

The spoils on Volod's body, including the waist bag and some medicines on his body, were just delivered to the room by Lehman Brothers, but he had not had time to check them.

"Then Baron Ryan, we will go back now to report."

"Captain Baron, have a safe trip."

Captain Baron nodded, stood up and prepared to leave, his majestic body like a moving reef.

The remaining five members of the Fish Dragon Team also prepared to turn around and leave.

At this time, a team member behind Captain Baron suddenly turned around and looked at Ryan, his expression full of eagerness to try, and he said:

"Baron, I am really curious about how you defeated Volod. So, please forgive my presumption. I don't know if it is convenient for you now, I want to have a brief exchange with you."

"Baron Ryan has just experienced a fierce battle. The request you made now is not very appropriate."

As soon as the other party finished speaking, Major Marika's face became serious and she immediately helped Ryan reject the other party's proposal.

"That's a pity!" Trevo shrugged and said.

"We are about to return. If we miss this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have the opportunity to exchange experience with Baron Ryan again."

Ryan noticed that when the young man named Trevo proposed to compete with him, Captain Baron's face did not show any displeasure, but instead had a faint expectation.

It seems that Captain Baron also wants to see his strength.

And Ryan naturally hopes to get more of this kind of "experience NPC" that comes to his door.

Secondly, it is very important that he also wants to know how strong the Fish Dragon Squadron under the so-called special department of the Imperial Navy, the Tide Walker, is

. If he thinks that it is difficult to win against Captain Baron,

then it is naturally a good thing to start from this member who took the initiative to challenge, and get a glimpse of the leopard, so as to understand the strength of the special department of the Imperial Navy.

Ryan smiled, turned to Major Marika and said, "Major Marika, it is a rare opportunity to meet the Fish Dragon Squadron here."

"I also want to communicate with the elites of the Fish Dragon Squadron."

"This" Marika was a little speechless for a while, and her beautiful eyes looked at Ryan, as if asking, "Sir Ryan, are you really sure?"

Ryan nodded to Marika.

And the young man named Trevor was overjoyed when he heard Ryan agree, and said, "Great, Sir Ryan, there should be an indoor training room nearby, right?"

"Of course, please follow me."

The group immediately came to the indoor training room behind the town's administrative hall.

Since it involved personnel from the special department of the Empire, for the sake of confidentiality, except for the Yulong team, Lehman Brothers, Veronica and Marika, all other personnel on the scene had to temporarily leave the training room.

As Ryan and Trevor stood in the center of the training room,

everyone immediately looked at the two with bright eyes, and everyone had different expressions.

For example, when Veronica saw Ryan on the court, her twin ponytails jumped, her cheeks flushed a little, and

she looked quite excited. Major Marika next to her frowned slightly.

Although she knew that Ryan had killed Volod, it was not long after the end of the war. She was worried that Ryan might not have recovered to his best condition in terms of physical strength and energy.

Moreover, as a civilian staff member of the Navy, she still had some understanding of the Navy's "Tide Walker" special department.

The selection standards were extremely high, and those who entered were the best of the best, and the young man who fought against Ryan this time was obviously seven or eight years older than Ryan.

With these seven or eight years of training and combat experience, Ryan may not have much advantage even if he is the first in the canonization assessment of the Munster Province.

Therefore, Marika was still a little nervous and worried at this time.

Trevo raised the silver bow in his hand after pulling away for a long distance and said, "Sir Ryan, I am an archer, so please forgive me. Before the competition, I need to pull away a certain distance."

Ryan nodded and said, "Of course."

This time he mainly wanted to understand the combat effectiveness of the members of the Fish Dragon Team. If he burst out with all his strength, he was confident that he could defeat the opponent quickly, but this did not meet his expectations.

Giving the opponent time and letting the opponent let go, he could have a more comprehensive understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Fish Dragon Team.

Seeing Ryan's kind attitude, Trevo also smiled and reminded him, "Sir Ryan, my arrows may be quite powerful, please be careful."

As soon as the voice fell, Trevo began to chant and cast witchcraft.

At this time, Veronica whispered to Major Marika: "This is the witchcraft 'Swift Wind', which can increase movement speed."

Ryan's ears moved slightly, and he understood immediately. At the same time, he smiled faintly at Veronica's actions.

It seemed that Trevo was very familiar with this swift wind, so he chanted the spell very quickly. It took only more than a second to complete the spell.

Trevo wrapped himself in a light blue airflow, and the speed of his whole body suddenly increased. Even compared with the speed of the great knight Ryan, it was comparable.

The distance that Ryan had quickly closed gradually remained constant.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Sharp arrows shot at Ryan. Ryan did not draw out his sword, but just used his sharp knuckles to knock away the arrows shot by Trevo.

But under the interference of the sharp arrows, the distance between the two was slightly pulled away again.

At this time, Trevo stood still abnormally and chanted the spell again. The next second, a sharp arrow mixed with a faint white light shot straight at Ryan.

Ryan originally planned to draw out the sword behind him and directly cut off the opponent's arrows.

But he gave up the idea and dodged slightly. The arrow rubbed Ryan's side and hit a steel shield hanging on the wall of the training room.

With a "pop!",

a big hole was suddenly pierced through the steel shield.

Seeing this power, Ryan raised his eyebrows.

He knew that this was the power formed by the combination of some kind of witchcraft and the archery mastered by the opponent.

In terms of power, the power of this arrow is comparable to the level of a peak knight performing a secret technique.

As the battle continued, Ryan soon heard the name of the opponent's witchcraft, "Sharp Art", from the whispered conversation between Veronica and Marika.

Trevo shot arrows mixed with the witchcraft "Sharp Art" at Ryan.

Although the arrows shot by the opponent were mixed with sharpness from time to time, they were continuously knocked away by Ryan. Even the arrows with sharpness were directly cut off by Ryan's sword.

Three minutes passed.

There was still no winner.

This made the other members of the Yulong team look at this scene with their eyes flashing and their minds thinking differently.

However, Captain Baron looked strange.

Of course, he could see that Ryan did not use his full strength, because Ryan always kept an almost constant distance from Trevo, as if he deliberately let Trevo let go.

At this time, he suddenly said, "Trevo, stop!"

Trevo stopped immediately after hearing the captain's words, but he was already sweating profusely and looked at Captain Baron with a puzzled look.

After all, the winner was still undecided.

"Trev, can't you see? Baron Ryan has held back."

At this time, the other people looked back and forth between the two. Sure enough, Ryan didn't have a single drop of sweat on his forehead at this moment, but Trevor was sweating profusely in comparison.

In addition, except for the initial distance between Ryan and him, Ryan basically stayed near the original place, and the footprints on the ground were a good proof of this.

This made Trevor look at Ryan with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Lord Ryan, for your advice!"

Because in his opinion, Ryan should have deliberately left him some face, but in fact Ryan had his own plans.

The battle with Trevor made Ryan have a vague understanding in his heart.

The opponent was an archer, and the witchcraft he used, whether it was the "Swift Wind" that increased the speed of movement or the "Sharpness" that increased the power of the arrow, was very consistent with the positioning of the archer.

Simply put, the witchcraft used by the opponent was closely integrated with him and the extraordinary combat skills he used.

But looking back at himself, apart from the sorcery 'High Temperature Standpoint', which can be relatively well connected with the extraordinary combat skills.

Some other sorcery, such as 'Scorching Touch', is difficult to combine with the extraordinary combat skills.

From this perspective, compared with fire sorcery, perhaps metal sorcery will be easier to combine with his extraordinary combat skills, thereby improving his combat effectiveness, that is, more suitable for his current weapon master (extraordinary) profession.

For example, once he has learned the sharpness technique, he can use it on the glimmering giant sword or the sharp blade knuckles to improve his combat effectiveness.

Ryan glanced at the system prompt:

[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, experience value +233]

[Your skill Kadar Fist has been improved, experience value +348]

[You have experienced a battle, weapon master (legend) experience value +63]

(Note: The above skill experience has enjoyed the 30% increase of the exclusive talent 'Primary Extraordinary Comprehension'.)

[Congratulations, your weapon master (legend) profession level has been upgraded! 】

Since the Weapon Master (Legend) was about to be upgraded, after this competition, it was directly upgraded to level 3 (45/500).

This also allowed Ryan to gain one more attribute point and one skill point, so that the remaining attribute points reached 6, and the remaining skill points became 2.

At this time, another young man holding a short stick from the Fish Dragon Team came up and said to Ryan with a smile: "Baron Ryan, my name is Nathaniel. After seeing the wonderful competition between you and Trevor, I also want to communicate with you very much."

"Of course!" Ryan nodded immediately and agreed.

After all, once the Fish Dragon Team went back, there would be no such good "communication" opportunity.

"But. Does Lord Ryan need to rest first?" Although Nathaniel felt that Ryan should still have some strength, after all, he had just fought fiercely for several minutes. He didn't believe that Ryan didn't consume too much physical strength.

Secondly, even if he won, this kind of victory would be greatly discounted.

"No need. My physical strength has always been better. We can start directly." Ryan said.

As soon as the words fell, Major Marika's pretty face turned slightly red, and she spat in her heart.

Although she has been busy with civilian work in the navy and has not yet married, she is already familiar with some things and some double entendres.

The girl with twin ponytails is paying special attention to whether Ryan can still win so easily this time. After all, Nathaniel is a relatively pure third-level wizard apprentice, and his fighting style is more inclined to wizards.

She is a little worried that Ryan does not have much experience in dealing with such an opponent.

It seems that he feels a little embarrassed that his team has been fighting Ryan in a round-robin battle. He only hears Nathaniel introduce himself: "Sir Ryan, I am a third-level wizard apprentice. My witchcraft attack is quite powerful. I hope Sir Ryan will not take it head-on."

After thinking about it, Nathaniel turned around enthusiastically and began to cast witchcraft on a dummy in iron armor in the distance.

Two seconds later, a ball of light green liquid with a fishy smell rushed straight to the dummy.

"Hiss!"

The light green liquid corroded the armor. In just one or two seconds, a big hole was corroded on the heavy armor. It is conceivable that even Ryan's water film steel armor set would be seriously damaged if hit head-on.

In response to Nathaniel's show of goodwill, Ryan smiled and nodded, saying, "Thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention."

Soon, the battle between the two began.

After Nathaniel quickly cast a water film spell on himself, he immediately raised his hand to Ryan. He pointed his palm at Ryan and silently recited another spell.

At this time, Ryan had come to more than ten meters in front of Nathaniel, but he felt something was wrong.

Suddenly, Ryan felt a cold negative energy around him instantly invaded his body. This feeling was more like some kind of curse.

Ryan suddenly felt weak in his limbs.

Soon, he heard Veronica whisper to Marika on the side: "This is a weakness spell."

Nathaniel's face was happy, and he quickly retreated while taking something out of his arms.

Although Ryan wanted to try out different types of opponents, he didn't want to lose.

So, Ryan planned to add points to try to verify whether he could offset this negative energy.

Just as Ryan was about to add points, suddenly, a member of the Fish Dragon Team walked to Captain Baron's ear with a serious face and whispered something.

Captain Baron's face changed immediately.

It seemed that something important had happened.

Captain Baron suddenly said, "Baron Ryan, Nathaniel, let's stop here for this competition. Now we have an urgent task and need to set off immediately!"

Ryan stopped adding points immediately, and Nathaniel on the side also stopped the witchcraft he was performing.

In this case, there was no need for him to use a little attribute point here in advance.

Captain Baron nodded to Ryan and the others, and led the team away quickly.

Veronica on the side ran forward and said, "Sir Ryan, are you okay? This is a weakness curse. With your physique, it will gradually dissipate in a few minutes."

"I'm fine." Ryan nodded and said.

He has already felt the cold negative energy in his body, which is slowly dissipating at this time, and the impact on his body is getting smaller and smaller.

Although the second battle just now basically came to an abrupt end, Ryan also discovered his own problems.

That is, his means of dealing with the enemy are still not diverse enough, especially for opponents who can cast curses, slow spells or weakening witchcraft. He can't attack the opponent remotely now, which is still a great disadvantage.

After a little thought, Ryan decided that he would improve the extraordinary combat skill of "Blood Fury Bow Technique" in the next few days.

Now he has the talent "Primary Extraordinary Comprehension", which can increase the learning speed by 30%.

He believes that the mastery of combat skills will be faster than before.
