Chapter 238: Also a Recommended Student (Two Chapters in One)

However, Jenny and Agatha thought about it and decided to look for Ryan.

After all, the Hammer and Rose Chamber of Commerce, the word "Hammer" represents "Baron Hammer" Ryan, although nominally, the Crowley family is the largest shareholder.

But the two knew best that Ryan was actually the largest shareholder, so no matter whether the business was going smoothly or not, Ryan should be informed.

So, the two women took the carriage before the sunset and came to the gate of the majestic Imperial Sword Bearer Munster Branch.

However, as soon as they arrived at the gate, they were startled by the busy scene. They saw more than a dozen luxurious carriages lined up in an orderly manner at the gate.

Whenever a carriage lined up near the gate, a man dressed like a butler would get out of the carriage, hand the invitation to the guard at the gate, and say a few words, and then get on the carriage again and leave quickly.

Naturally, the next carriage would take over and repeat the process.

The two women looked at each other, and saw surprise and confusion in each other's eyes.

It didn't look like the assessment had just ended, did it?

After all, the carriage didn't pick anyone up.

Just a butler came down, handed one or several invitations to the guard and left.

Moreover, Jenny looked at the noble emblems on the carriages in the row in front of her, each of which was different, obviously belonging to different noble families.

This made her even more curious!

As the carriages drove away one by one, the carriages where Jenny and Agatha were also slowly moved forward with the flow of carriages. Soon, the two women heard clearly what the butler who got off the carriage in front said:

"Please give this invitation to Baron Ryan from Meister, and this one to Miss Evelyn from Rosby County."

"Okay." The guard raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said.

But he couldn't help but linger on the words "Baron Ryan" on the invitation for a while.

The guard was also surprised!

In previous years, when the sword bearer assessment was over, the adults who passed the assessment would naturally be sought after by many nobles in the provincial capital.

But this situation rarely happened.

Most of the invitations were concentrated on one adult.

Lord Ryan from Meister should have received at least thirty invitations in one afternoon, right?

He couldn't figure out what Lord Ryan had done? He

actually provoked so many nobles in the provincial capital to invite him.

The two women who vaguely heard the words "Meist" and "Ryan" looked at each other in surprise and said almost in unison:

"Jenny (Agatha), did you hear it?"

The two nodded at the same time!

As the butler of the next carriage came forward, the two heard it more clearly.

This time, the other party only left an invitation to the guards, and specifically invited Baron Ryan, not others. In addition, this butler was from the Count Plank family.

The Count family in the provincial capital should not be inferior to Count Habsburg in Meister, right? The two women couldn't help but sigh in their hearts!

For a moment, Jenny and Agatha were even more confused and curious.

How come so many nobles are competing to invite Lord Ryan just after he arrived in the provincial capital? Even

if he passed the sword bearer test, it doesn't make sense!

After all, he is not the only one who passed the test. On the way, they also heard that the test has a passing rate of about 30% to 40%.

Just when the two women were puzzled.

Ryan and Veronica followed the main road in the city, Leavenworth Street, and climbed up the stairs.

The two gradually walked to the top of the mountain.

Two towering vaulted buildings appeared in front of them. According to the citizens on the side, one is the office residence of the governor, and the other is the cathedral of the Church of the Goddess of Monsoon and Ocean.

Obviously, as the highest executive officer of the entire Munster Province, it is natural that the Duke of Munster's office occupies the best position in the entire city.

Further up is the Griffin Platform, with a sentry every five steps and a sentry every ten steps along the road, and it is heavily guarded.

Ryan and Veronica were originally here to enjoy the scenery of Munster, so they naturally did not reveal their identities and went to these places.

The two stopped at the citizen viewing platform nearby, where they could overlook the entire plain with an excellent view.

After finding a secluded corner, Veronica did not choose to sit on the bench, but walked forward playfully and cast a water flow spell to clean the edge of the suspended platform.

Ryan smiled slightly and instantly understood what Veronica meant. He also whispered a spell and cast the witchcraft Burning Touch, stretching out his hand and gently stroking the freshly washed ground.

In an instant, the washed ground was dry.

So, the two of them sat on the ground, with their feet hanging in the air outside the observation deck. Veronica leaned gently on Ryan. Neither of them spoke, but quietly watched the sunset slowly fall on the endless plains, and the winding river stretched all the way to the distance .

Jenny and Agatha, who were eager to wait, finally waited for Ryan and Veronica to come after dark.

Jenny couldn't help but complained in her heart, Lord Ryan, we are so anxious to wait,

but you are still here to pick up girls. Seeing the two women waiting under the street lights, Ryan couldn't help but look surprised and said, "Jenny, Agatha, is there something urgent?"

"This. I have something to discuss with Lord Ryan."

Seeing Ryan coming, the guard at the door bowed slightly to Ryan and said, "Lord Ryan, a lot of nobles have just sent you invitations, please check them."

"Okay, thank you."

However, when Ryan saw the thick stack of invitations, he was still shocked.

This.

Since the Sword Bearer Division prohibits outsiders from entering, Ryan thought for a moment and said, "Jenny, Agatha, let's go to the carriage to discuss it."

"Ryan, then I'll go back first." Veronica glanced at the two girls and said with a smile.

"Okay, rest early."

"Yeah."

In the carriage.

"It's probably because I was faster when I passed the Sword Bearer Assessment." Ryan didn't know how to explain to the two girls who were not good at fighting that he knocked down the Obsidian Giant with one hammer.

After all, they had never seen an Obsidian Giant, and they didn't know their strength, so they couldn't compare.

"By the way, Jenny, Agatha, maybe things in trade are not that difficult." Ryan pointed to the invitations stacked half a meter high in the carriage, and continued:

"These are all nobles who invited me to the banquet. You two can take a look and see if there are any people you want to cooperate with. I should be able to introduce them."

Although the two girls were still confused by Ryan's explanation, when they heard the second half of the sentence that Ryan could help with the introduction, they immediately picked up the invitations and began to look through them one by one.

"Agatha, isn't this the Viscount Ocott we're looking for? He's the one behind the Golden Chrysanthemum Chamber of Commerce." Jenny exclaimed. "

Yes, Jenny." Agatha looked sideways at the invitation in Jenny's hand, nodded affirmatively, and replied.

"Huh? Jenny, look at this Earl Owens, is he a supporter of the huge Nicolin Chamber of Commerce?"

After returning to the room, Ryan remembered that he hadn't checked the system prompts for defeating the obsidian giant during the day:

[Your skill Tokkar Hammer Technique has been improved, experience +981]

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

[You have experienced a battle, weapon master (legend) experience +338]

Looking at the above system prompts, Ryan couldn't help but nod.

Although it was just a strike, the experience value reward given by the system was not low.

After thinking about it, Ryan realized that this was probably because he was using the intermediate secret for the first time with all his strength.

The feeling of swinging the hammer in one go, and being so refreshing, even now, when he thinks of it, he will feel his blood circulation speed up, and the whole person is a little excited.

Of course, if he did not have intermediate talent and mastered the intermediate secret, it would be difficult for him to burst out such a powerful blow!

Unfortunately, it takes gold skill points to improve the intermediate secret, and it takes more and more rare talent points to improve talent.

Retracting his thoughts, Ryan recalled the situation in the preliminary test during the day.

Among those who passed the test, the peak knights accounted for the majority, with nearly 20 people.

As for the others, there were senior knights who also studied as second-level wizard apprentices, and there were also examinees who were purely third-level wizard apprentices, but the number was small.

In addition, among the people who passed the test, there were actually eight people with the strength of a great knight, which made Ryan sigh that the number of geniuses in the whole province had obviously increased.

There were two people who left a deep impression on him.

One was a strong man holding a sword and shield, named Angus, a great knight, who seemed to be about 26 or 27 years old. It is said that he had been serving in the imperial army before.

When facing the stone attack of the obsidian giant, the opponent was able to hold up his shield to resist, giving people a feeling of being as solid as a rock, and his strength was very strong.

Another young man, named Nereo, was elegant and seemed to be the son of a marquis of Munster. He was a third-level wizard apprentice. He just tore open a sorcery scroll "Spider Web" and delayed the action of the obsidian giant, and passed easily.

According to others, this young man is a rare scroll master, and using the scroll is naturally not a violation.

"After three days, after the relevant procedures for the official sword holder are completed, I wonder if I can directly check the conditions for exchanging metal-based sorcery?"

"Secondly, I have to wait for the black horse to complete the mutation and be promoted to a ferocious beast, so that I can change my job to a beast tamer. Calculating the time, it should be soon."

"Weapon Master (Legend) is my core combat power profession, and I can't slack off in improving various extraordinary combat skills. If Locken's axe and shield combat skills can be used, I will have more means to deal with the enemy."

Ryan, lying on the bed, looked thoughtful.

Soon after, he fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Ryan came to the training room where the building was located.

The Sword Bearer Branch naturally has an outdoor training ground, but it is only open to formal personnel, so even if you want to go, you can only wait two days to complete the formalities.

As soon as he approached, he didn't expect that several strong and dark-skinned young men were already training.

Ryan had a deep impression of these people. They all came from the army and were considered a small group. The core of the group was the strong man Angus holding a sword and shield, who was a great knight.

Seeing Ryan come in, several people immediately raised their heads and focused their eyes on Ryan.

There was no way not to focus!

After all, facing this young man who knocked down the obsidian giant with a hammer, who was definitely the first person in the first test, it would be a lie to say that he didn't pay attention.

Ryan didn't mind the other party's attention. He walked aside by himself and planned to choose a training weapon, but in an instant, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.

Yes!

Aren't these vigorous young people the best subjects for his experience?

Immediately, Ryan looked at them!

However, what disappointed Ryan was that after his eyes swept over, several people lowered their heads and whispered.

This...

He thought that the other party would look at him, and then come up to express that he wanted to compete.

In this way, he could happily get the title of "Experience NPC".

What a pity!

Although he is a master of the imperial army, he does not seem to be reckless.

Just when Ryan was still hesitating about which combat skill to practice, a muscular young man took the initiative to come over and said,

"Sir Ryan, I am Vieri from Bobigny County. I admire your amazing performance in the assessment. I wonder if I can have the honor to ask for your advice."

Hearing the other party's words, Ryan's smile gradually brightened!

Ryan thought that according to the power of that hammer, the other party would avoid him, but he didn't expect that there would actually be someone willing to compete with him.

It seems that he still underestimated the passion and ambition of the young people.

However, the only pity is that it was not Angus, the strongest sword and shield man among these people.

Ryan immediately replied politely: "Of course, it is also my honor!"

Vieri really didn't expect Ryan to be so easy to talk to, and the nervous person immediately relaxed.

The other people standing in the distance also surrounded him with a smile.

"Vieri, you have to cheer up!"

"Sir Ryan, you have to be merciful, otherwise, Vieri may not be able to block the hammer." Several people said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I don't need a hammer today." Ryan said with a smile, and picked up the axe and shield on the weapon rack.

This made the young man named Vieri look puzzled and said:

"Sir Ryan, aren't you good at using a two-handed warhammer? Why..."

"Stupid! Sir Ryan is afraid that you will get hurt." A young man patted Vieri on the shoulder.

"Sir Vieri, I am actually quite familiar with the axe and shield."

"Okay." Vieri obviously didn't believe it, but he nodded.

Ryan could guess what the other party was thinking.

The other party must think that he didn't take him seriously enough, and actually fought him with a secondary weapon.

But there was no way, he couldn't level up with the pig-head hammer, and Tokkar's hammer technique was already level 14.

Soon, the two stood in the center of the field, Ryan holding an axe and shield, and Vieri holding a two-handed sword.

"Sir Ryan, please teach me!"

The next second, Vieri quickly stepped forward, and the sword in his hand drew a semicircular arc like lightning, and chopped down at Ryan at a 45-degree downward slashing angle!

Facing Vieri's attack, Ryan secretly praised in his heart, his level is not bad!

Ryan's reaction was not slow at all, and he immediately blocked with his shield.

"Dang!!"

The harsh sound of metal clashing rang out.

Ryan firmly blocked the opponent's sword slash.

With just one strike, Ryan felt that the opponent was slightly inferior to him in strength and agility, but he was skilled in the greatsword fighting skills and had obviously reached the mastery level.

If Ryan used the lv4 axe and shield fighting skills to deal with it, Vieri was actually an evenly matched opponent.

"Ding ding clang clang!"

The two fought faster and faster, and soon, the sound of weapons clashing could not stop.

"Clang!!"

Neither Ryan nor Vieri activated the "Limit Breaking" or used secret skills. It was just a regular fight. After all, this was a friendly competition.

After a few minutes, Vieri ran out of strength, and Ryan seized the opportunity to hit him with a shield strike, sending him flying several meters away.

"Sir Ryan, thank you for showing mercy."

Seeing that Vieri was defeated in the end because of his lack of strength, several young men on the side exchanged glances, all of whom thought that Ryan was deliberately letting him win.

After all, the power of Ryan's hammer at that time left a deep impression in their minds.

Ryan glanced at the system prompt:

[Your skill Locken Axe and Shield Combat Skill has been upgraded, experience value +431]

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

[You have experienced a battle, weapon master (legend) experience value +38]

Seeing that Locken Axe and Shield Combat Skill has been upgraded to level 4 (453/1000), Ryan's eyes lit up immediately!

This progress is almost half of level 4.

It's good! This speed.

With the 30% increase of the exclusive talent 'Primary Extraordinary Comprehension', the experience value of a good player of Vieri's level as a competition object is quite good.

After seeing Vieri and Ryan fighting vividly, the people around them all looked eager to fight.

Because in their opinion, this young Lord Ryan was unexpectedly easy to get along with!

No arrogance!

No quick move to defeat Vieri, pointing weapons at Vieri with a look of disdain!

Instead, he kept feeding Vieri with moves, making Vieri fight to his heart's content, and only lost after being exhausted.

Just ask, where can you find such a top-notch sparring partner with such a "friendly" attitude?

Immediately, before Vieri officially left the field, the strong young men said:

"Sir Ryan, I am from the hope of having a chance to ask for advice."

"Chris, wait a minute, let me ask Sir Ryan first.

" "You two wait a minute, let me..."

"."

Seeing several people eagerly coming forward, hoping to learn from him, Ryan was immediately happy. It

's really an unintentional success!

Don't worry! Line up

one by one.

I'll take turns with you all!

"Don't worry, come one by one, I think everyone will have a chance." Ryan smiled.

Hearing what Ryan said, everyone was relieved and immediately elected one to come up and ask Ryan for advice.

Ten minutes later, the second one came.

Half an hour later, the third one

came. Well, this one has good stamina and is more durable, although still not as good as Ryan.

Forty-five minutes later, the fourth one

After fighting four muscular young men in a row, even Ryan, who had a physical fitness of 29 points, felt a little tired.

However,

at this time, the "Locken Axe and Shield Combat Skill" was successfully upgraded to level 5.

Suddenly, a memory fragment about the practice of the axe and shield combat skill flooded into Ryan's mind.

These scattered memory fragments of the practice of the axe and shield combat skill flashed through Ryan's mind and quickly integrated into his muscle memory, as if he had devoted himself to practicing the Locken Axe and Shield Combat Skill for more than a year.

At this time, after seeing Ryan and everyone else compete, Angus on the side was extremely jealous. At this time, he no longer cared about the reserve of the master, and walked over and said in a muffled voice:

"Sir Ryan, do you need to rest?"

"Sir Ryan, I actually admire you too."

Ryan couldn't help but feel happy!

Waiting for you!

As the remaining attribute points dropped from 13 to 12, Ryan added a point to the physical attribute, allowing the physical fitness to recover to 30 points again.

At the same time, a warm current from the heart pump instantly washed away Ryan's fatigue!

Half an hour later, Ryan and Angus were both sweating, but both of them had bright eyes. Obviously, they both gained a lot from the competition just now.

At this time, the red-haired beauties Irina and Veronica also came to the training room together. At first glance, they saw the "affectionate look" between Ryan and Angus. For

a moment, the two women looked at each other with stunned expressions!

Ryan had a very fulfilling life in these three days.

Basically, he was in the training room during the day, competing with everyone and quickly improving the level of Locken's axe and shield combat skills, and at night, he took Jenny and Agatha to attend dinners for three different nobles.

Relying on Ryan's matchmaking, the sales task of the goods brought by the new chamber of commerce this time has been completed.

At the same time, the new chamber of commerce has also signed long-term supply or cooperation agreements with the shops or chambers of commerce controlled by these nobles.

In addition, Jenny also purchased a house and a shop in the name of the new chamber of commerce as a temporary place for them and Matteo.

Although the shop is not so prosperous in terms of location, it has already exceeded the established mission goal before she came.

Jenny and Agatha, two noble ladies from the "countryside", are the "white gloves" of the promising Sword Bearer Ryan in the eyes of the nobles in the provincial capital Munster, so they are naturally respectful.

This allowed the two girls to quickly get along with many noble heirs, and business affairs gradually got on track.

Three days later.

The lobby of the newcomer building of the Sword Bearer Munster branch.

The young people who passed the assessment gathered again, and standing in front of them was still the familiar middle-aged knight.

He just smiled and said: "First of all, congratulations to everyone for passing the selection of the Imperial Sword Bearer and becoming a glorious Imperial Black Iron Sword Bearer."

"In addition, Ryan from Meister performed well in the preliminary test and was the only examinee who defeated the Obsidian Giant. Therefore, the Imperial Sword Bearer Munster Branch decided..."

When he said this, the middle-aged knight paused for a moment, looked around, and then continued:

"Ryan Kalan, exempt from the re-examination, recommended as the captain of the sword bearer, and enjoy the treatment of the bronze-level sword bearer."

The middle-aged knight looked at Ryan in the crowd, and was amazed in his heart. It has been almost five or six years since this happened, right?

Admiral Edward's personal instructions.

This is the treatment of a genius!

Just one hammer passed the preliminary and re-examination, and the treatment was also confirmed!

At first, the people who had just passed the test were silent, as if they were digesting what the middle-aged knight said, but then, like water being boiled, the whole scene suddenly boiled up!

What?

Exempted from retest?

Directly became the captain?

Many people were so envious that their eyes almost turned red!

Ryan was slightly stunned when he heard it. He didn't expect that he would actually be a recommended student.

After everyone whispered for a long time, the middle-aged knight slowly shouted: "Silence!"

"What will be issued later is your personal sword bearer emblem, please be sure to keep it carefully." The middle-aged knight pointed to the tray covered with black cloth held by the servant beside him, and continued.

"The emblem is not only your certificate as a sword bearer, but also a pass to enter various departments of the sword bearer. If you want to exchange special items later, you will also need the emblem to query and exchange."
