Wizard Begins with Mending Donkey Hooves

The ancient empire is senile and dying, while the nascent federation roars with steam. The slumbering gods are gradually awakening, and some giant beasts that disappeared in ancient times are slowl...

Chapter 287 Two Moves (Two Chapters in One)

Chapter 287 Two Moves (Two in One Chapter)

This is the first time that Ryan has read a breathing method of excellent quality.

The previous Giant Bear Breathing Method was only at an ordinary level. Even with the addition of the internal breathing method learned from Master Gunther, the combination of the two has been improved.

But according to the level or quality, it is only of excellent quality.

It is still a whole level away from excellent quality.

On the other hand, Ryan also slowly experienced that his current Bear King Breathing Method seemed to have limitations on the development of all aspects of his body.

Before he entered the level of the Great Knight, this was not obvious.

That was because the Bear King Breathing Method was added to a very high level by him, so it felt that the breathing method's improvement of various attributes of the body was quite obvious.

But when Ryan entered the Great Knight, especially the senior Great Knight, the weakness of the breathing method in this aspect gradually emerged.

Otherwise, Ryan would not have taken the initiative to ask the instructor of the Sword Bearer Division about the breathing method.

Although Claire's words last night were full of apologies, meaning that she didn't expect Ryan to have such outstanding talent, and apologized for not teaching him a better breathing method at the beginning.

But Ryan didn't care, because when he was still a child servant, Claire was able to teach him an ordinary-level giant bear breathing method, which was already a favor from a mentor.

How could he blame the other party for not giving him a high-quality breathing method?

Moreover, Claire's vision was not wrong.

The problem was with him. He had a cheat, not an outstanding talent.

Although he was indeed talented now, that was a talent he had only after cheating.

In addition, Ryan's current physical development mainly relied on adding points and taking more potions, so the progress of physical development was still very fast and was not much affected by the breathing method.

But if he could gain some insights and experience from this excellent quality breathing method, it would naturally be a great thing, and Ryan couldn't help but do it.

"Huh?"

"There are actually twenty-one movements?"

Ryan spread out the parchment scroll of the 'Fire Iguana Breathing Method' on the desk, and he was surprised to find that there were a full twenty-one different postures of training movements on the parchment scroll.

"This is exactly three times the seven movements of the Giant Bear Breathing Method!" Ryan couldn't help but sigh.

Just from the number of movements, Ryan felt that the gap between the two was much greater than he had imagined.

This made Ryan's face solemn and he looked at it seriously.

Although Claire suggested that he use it as a reference at the time, Ryan thought about it and decided to give it a try.

After all, some of the previous movements seemed to be basic movements, and there would be no problems after practicing them.

In addition, he is now a senior knight. If he feels something strange in his body during the practice, he can stop at any time.

The first movement of the Fire Iguana Breathing Method is quite difficult, similar to the 'Reverse Head-to-Knee Style' in Ryan's previous life yoga, which requires a high degree of flexibility.

Of course, this is compared with the Giant Bear Breathing Method and beginners.

For Ryan's current physical fitness at the level of a great knight, this action is naturally not difficult.

A few seconds later, Ryan posed the reverse head-to-knee pose, and exhaled and exhaled slowly according to the rhythm requirements.

Suddenly, the system prompt sounded:

[You have practiced the Fire Iguana Breathing Method, and your understanding of it has improved! ]

[You have comprehended a new skill - Fire Iguana Breathing Method]

[Your skill Fire Iguana Breathing Method has been improved, and your experience value is +1]

[It is detected that the host has practiced the Bear King Breathing Method, which is also a breathing method, and it is judged to be fused]

[The fusion has failed! The Fire Iguana Breathing Method does not meet the minimum fusion conditions. ]

"This is..."

Seeing this series of prompts, Ryan read them carefully several times, and his heart gradually became happy.

According to the last sentence of the system prompt, it is obvious that the excellent quality Fire Iguana Breathing Method and the excellent quality Bear King Breathing Method can be fused.

However, the fusion needs to meet certain conditions.

Ryan immediately thought of the similar process of integrating the internal breathing method when he was practicing with Master Gunther before.

It is not that once you learn the inner breathing method, you can integrate and improve the level of the giant bear breathing method.

Instead, the integration is successful after the conditions are met.

"Remember that time, it seemed that the inner breathing method reached the level 3?"

"Or is it based on the feeling at that time? The subtle interaction between the inner breathing method and the giant

bear breathing method." Ryan thought. After thinking about it, Ryan decided to practice the entire set of 21 movements of the "Fire Iguana Breathing Method" first.

Who knows, this is also a prerequisite for integration.

So Ryan immediately started practicing the second movement.

Similarly, he quickly mastered it in less than half a minute.

Next, it was the third movement

. Half an hour later, Ryan had practiced the seventeenth movement.

It was about the eighth movement that Ryan felt a little discomfort in his body.

Now, after the seventeenth movement, this feeling is more obvious.

It seems that some hidden small muscle groups and small fascia in the body have been stretched many times. This feeling was not present in the previous Bear King Breathing Method.

In addition, some muscle groups strengthened by the Bear King Breathing Method seemed to be incompatible with the current Fire Iguana Breathing Method.

Of course, it didn't mean that Ryan couldn't do the whole set of movements.

With Ryan's physical fitness as a senior knight, he could naturally do the whole set of movements.

It was just awkward, and Ryan could vaguely feel that this set of movements did not improve his body, but instead caused slight damage.

Ryan understood a little.

This should be what the sword-wielding instructor said before, because the body had long adapted to the initial breathing method and changed and adapted to it, and it had basically gradually taken shape. If

the breathing method was suddenly changed, the strength would stagnate for several years.

Once the body did not adapt to the new breathing method, after a few years, the strength would regress and the body would be seriously damaged.

However, Ryan's purpose was not to change the breathing method.

After another half an hour, Ryan touched the sweat on his head. He finally did all 21 movements.

He looked at the 'Fire Iguana Breathing Method lv2 (2/300)' displayed on the system panel.

I didn't expect to reach the lv2 level so quickly.

Back then, it took him four or five days to enter the lv2 of the Giant Bear Breathing Method.

Now, it only took 1 hour to reach lv2, and this is an excellent quality breathing method.

But this is normal. After all, it is a "dimensionality reduction strike" for a senior knight to practice this breathing method.

At this time, the system prompt sounded again:

[Ding! The host's Fire Iguana Breathing Method has been detected to have reached the lowest level of integration into the Bear King Breathing Method. The current conditions are met and it can be integrated into a new breathing method. This fusion requires 4 gold skill points. Yes/No? ]

(Note: After the fusion, the Bear King Breathing Method will not be displayed on the panel, but the host can still use related secrets and derived secrets.) (Note: After the fusion

, the new breathing method will combine the advantages of the Fire Iguana Breathing Method and the Bear King Breathing Method and improve them. The host's experience value in the Bear King Breathing Method will be converted into the improved new breathing method experience value according to a certain ratio.)

This immediately made Ryan overjoyed.

He didn't expect that this fusion prompt would appear so quickly.

"Dong Dong Dong!" At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Huh? Why is there someone here so early in the morning?" Ryan frowned slightly.

He was just about to integrate the breathing method at this time, and he was naturally unhappy to be interrupted.

Ryan opened the door and saw Olena, a capable young woman.

"Good morning, Lord Ryan. I just heard from the guard that you have been to the training room. I just found out that you are up. You are really diligent." Olena greeted with a smile.

Don't hit a smiling person. Ryan nodded and forced a smile, saying, "Lord Olena, good morning. Is there anything?"

"Well, it's like this, Lord Ryan. I received a letter from Admiral Edward last night."

"The Admiral hopes that you can return to the Sword Bearer Branch as soon as possible after finishing your business here. He is very interested in the process of you killing the epic strongman."

"This. OK, I know." Ryan frowned slightly.

This matter is actually quite troublesome.

As for how to cover up the core skill of the Warhammer Wizard, 'Soul Crushing Hammer', he had thought of several explanations early on.

However, in the eyes of an old fox like Admiral Edward, it is not so easy to get away with it.

Ryan initially thought that this ability was attributed to the skull hammer.

And as the skull hammer broke, somehow, he had this strange ability.

As for whether to believe it or not?

That was none of his business.

The good thing about the extraordinary world was that some strange phenomena would occasionally occur, and his was not particularly exaggerated.

In addition, he was also a wizard, and he had a natural advantage in explaining some mysterious things.

"By the way, there is one more thing. The admiral meant that he hoped to send the body of the cult epic powerhouse, 'Ancient Hero Monger', to Munster as soon as possible."

"The admiral will be responsible for contacting Archbishop Gomes of the Goddess Church to find out the other party's origin as soon as possible."

"After all, epic powerhouses, even in ancient times, were well-known big figures, and their origins can basically be found in ancient books."

"This will be of great help in removing the mark on you later." Olena explained.

Ryan nodded, his brows relaxed, and said, "Of course, I'll trouble you, Ms. Olena, to convey my gratitude to Admiral Edward."

This is a good thing. He didn't expect that Admiral Edward would take the fact that he was marked so seriously.

"No trouble, Mr. Ryan, it's my honor. If the people in the branch knew that I would bring back the body of an epic warrior this time, I don't know how many people would envy me."

Olena lifted the hair beside her ear and covered her mouth with a chuckle.

She continued, "Then I will contact the Griffin Knights to escort me back to Munster by military airship."

"Well, I'll stay for another two days. If the situation stabilizes, I will return to Munster as soon as possible." Ryan nodded.

Although from the perspective of the mission, the three gold-level missions of 'killing' the blood-burning 'Laxul', 'investigating the truth behind the attack on Mayest', and 'protecting the governor of Mayest County' have been successfully completed.

But from a personal perspective, he is now Claire's guardian knight and can't just leave like this.

We need to observe for at least two days, and then return to Munster after confirming that everything is fine.

"Okay, Mr. Ryan, sorry to bother you."

"Bon voyage!"

-

Munster, third floor of the Axon Auction House.

In a magnificent study.

Viscount Fabien and Asani welcomed a distinguished guest from the imperial capital, Marquis Orenz's younger brother, Drake Orenz.

The other party's arrival was naturally beyond the expectations of the two.

Fabien originally thought that the head office should send someone to apologize to Ryan, but he didn't expect such a person to come. Obviously, he was not here to apologize.

The ancient troll fangs are of extraordinary significance to Marquis Orenz. It seems that it should be difficult to buy them from other places in a short period of time, so Drake Orenz came here.

"Sir Fabien, please send this invitation to an old friend of mine at the Munster Sword Bearer Branch." The middle-aged man in aristocratic hunting clothes handed a gorgeous invitation to Viscount Fabien with a smile on his face.

"Of course, Lord Drake, I will go there in person." After Fabien took it, he immediately walked out of the room and got on the carriage.

Curious, he looked at the letterhead in the invitation, which read 'Dear Stanley.'

Stanley?

He had heard of this person, and it seemed that he was a senior member of the Sword Bearer Branch.

Half an hour later.

"Huh? Drake came to Munster?" Colonel Stanley, who received the invitation, frowned slightly.

He and Drake had a good relationship, but not to the extent that the other party came to Munster to see him. The two were classmates at the Imperial Royal Academy.

"If he didn't just happen to pass by, he should have something to ask me? But what can I do to help him?"

The Sword Bearer Organization is almost all official business, and the tasks are all from official channels.

Soon, the two met.

After a brief greeting, Drake smiled and said, "Stanley, I have a small favor here, and I need your help, my old classmate."

"Drake, with your current status and position, if you can't solve it, how can I help?" Stanley also smiled and said.

"Hehe, this matter is just within your rights, so..."

"Oh? Within my rights? Is it the Munster Sword Bearer Branch?" Stanley's smile faded.

He didn't expect that his old classmate Drake in front of him really wanted his help.

"Yes."

"In the next few days, it may be today or tomorrow. A sword bearer of the Munster branch may die in an accident, but this matter still needs you to suppress it a little to avoid the spread of the impact."

Drake said cryptically.

"Hmm?" Stanley's face became serious, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Is there no possibility of communication?"

"Basically there is no possibility. In addition, this is not my intention, but the intention of my brother, Marquis Orenz. Old classmate, please."

Marquis Orenz?

Stanley pondered in silence. Naturally, he didn't want to do this kind of thing.

But sometimes there is no way.

Just like the imperial nobility, it is a privileged class relative to the common people.

But in fact, the nobility is also divided into different levels. Standing at the top, the great nobles with a long heritage are the privileged among the privileges. The hereditary dukes and marquises are the people at the top.

"Then you must make the compensation you should make." Stanley sighed and nodded reluctantly.

"Of course, I won't make things difficult for you, my old classmate." Drake saw Stanley agreed and nodded with a smile. Suddenly

, Stanley thought of something.

He asked, "By the way, old classmate, what's the name of the sword bearer?"

"Don't worry, he's not a senior one with a big influence. He's a newcomer, but I heard he's pretty good." Drake said casually.

Stanley's face changed!

Newcomer?

He immediately thought of someone when he heard this word.

Pretty good?

Stanley's eyes began to twitch slightly.

Could it be!

He looked serious, staring at Drake, and asked anxiously, "Drake, don't tell me his name is Ryan?"

"Huh? How do you know?" Drake was stunned!

He immediately thought that Stanley must have recruited the new sword bearer, such as asking him to be a follower or something.

"Fuck!"

Stanley's face suddenly changed. He stood up suddenly and cursed.

He hadn't cursed like this for a long time since he became Admiral Edward's secretary.

"Draco! Do you know what you are doing!"

-

At the same time. In

the mansion of Earl Habsburg in Mayest County City.

In Claire's study.

"Claire, I have something to ask you about the blood breathing method."

"Is there any difference between the blood breathing method and other breathing methods?" Regarding the fusion of breathing methods, Ryan planned to ask more clearly. He didn't know anything about the blood breathing method.

After all, he now has enough gold skill points and can fuse at any time.

"Of course, about..." Just as Claire started to speak, Ryan suddenly interrupted her.

"Claire, I suddenly remembered that Count Habsburg seemed to have sent someone to look for you just now. Why don't you go and see him first, and we can talk when you are free."

"Hmm?" Claire looked at Ryan in confusion, but the next second she seemed to understand something, nodded, and left the room.

"Who is eavesdropping there?" Ryan's eyes were stern, and he looked at a dark corner of the room.

Since he entered the room, he sensed a faint breath there. At first, he thought it was some kind of secret guard of the Habsburg family.

But when he thought about it carefully, he found that it shouldn't be.

Because in such a fierce battle in the past two days, there was no such "shadow guard" appearing.

In other words, even if there is, the number should be very limited, and it should be closely guarding the seriously injured Count Habsburg.

"Hehe, very sharp perception, as expected, Grant's death in your hands is not accidental."

A voice sounded in the room.

However, this voice seemed to be surround sound, as if there were sounds coming from several corners of the wall, making it impossible to determine the other party's position.

Grant?

Ryan immediately realized the other party's origin.

He thought the other party was a member of the Black Flame Cult.

But now it seems that he is not, but someone sent by the Axon Head Office. Of course, he may also be a friend of Grant, the 'Ice Messenger'.

"Are you from the head office of the Axon Auction House in the Imperial Capital?" Ryan said in a deep voice.

"Whether you are or not, it has nothing to do with the dead. I'll give you a chance. If you voluntarily hand over the ancient troll fangs, I will let you die more comfortably."

"Looking for death!"

I don't know if it was because of the influence of the mark, Ryan faced this person who threatened him, and a sense of anger suddenly

arose in his heart. A dangerous aura began to spread from Ryan.

"Hehe, looking for death? Then let you suffer a little first." Elixiu narrowed his eyes and said.

He had read the intelligence and knew that Ryan killed Grant in three moves, but he thought to himself that if it was a sneak attack, he could do the same.

His rare dagger has the miraculous effect of breaking the shields of various elements.

After reading some of Ryan's experiences, Elihu determined that his judgment was correct. The weapon in the opponent's hand should be the same as his, which was quite special.

It was precisely relying on this unexpectedness that the opponent was able to kill Grant in three moves.

"Swish!"

A throwing weapon similar to a dagger shot rapidly at Ryan from the corner.

Because the distance was too close and the speed was as fast as lightning, Ryan had almost no room to dodge.

But Elihu's originally smiling face froze!

Because he saw that Ryan did not dodge, but suddenly spun at high speed like a gyroscope. In an instant, a whirlwind suddenly rose in the room, mixed with sharp whistling sounds.

Obviously, Elihu did not expect that Ryan would not dodge in the face of his throwing weapon, but immediately choose to launch a counterattack.

Suddenly, the dense four-cornered darts forced him to reveal his figure.

"Ding ding dang dang!"

A thin man wearing a hood and dark leather armor was seen swinging his two daggers rapidly in the shadows, knocking away more than a dozen four-cornered darts that were attacking him. His movements were extremely sharp.

"I got you, little mouse!" As

soon as the words fell

, Elixiu felt the alarm bells ringing, a gust of wind hit his face, and a black shadow slashed down from top to bottom.

In a flash, Elixiu crossed his two daggers and stretched them across his head, trying to block Ryan's slash.

"Dang!!!"

There was a sharp sound of metal clashing, but the next second, he screamed!

He was seen being chopped in the middle of his head. If he hadn't instinctively retracted his neck at the critical moment, his head would have been broken in half!

The key is that Elixiu was a little confused!

What did he see just now!

The big sword in Ryan's hand was actually bent!

Moreover, it was not an ordinary bend, but a bend of nearly 90 degrees. He

was seriously injured in one move. Elixiu knew that if he didn't fight hard today, he would probably stay here.

In an instant, his face turned fierce, and he did not retreat but advanced towards Ryan, stabbing him dozens of times with both hands. The dense dagger shadows stabbed at the vital points of Ryan's body.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

After just one poke, Elihu felt something was wrong. After piercing the opponent's armor, his dagger, which was at the level of a rare item, could not penetrate any further. The resistance was extremely great.

"That's it?" Ryan grinned.

"Shua shua shua!"

In a flash, Elihu's body had dozens of blood holes, all of which were caused by the sharp knuckles in Ryan's hands that instantly transformed.

Suddenly, Elihu's eyes widened, and his whole body shook like a sieve.

"Puff!"

Four more blood holes appeared on his forehead in an instant, and he died on the spot.

Ryan only used two moves in total, "Blade Storm" and "Heavy Punch Combo".

One less move than "Ice Messenger" Grant.

At this time, the guards heard the movement in the room and rushed in.

They were stunned when they saw the debris all over the room, the dense four-cornered darts on the wall, and the skinny leather-armored man with a crooked neck in Ryan's hand.

"Lord Ryan, you..." The guards stared at the scene in front of them in amazement.

"I'm fine, you clean up here."

"Yes, Lord Ryan."

At this time, Claire also hurried over, and saw the scene in front of her, and said: "Ryan, are you okay? Is it the Black Flame Cult?"

"It's not a cult." Ryan shook his head.

"It's just a little trouble of my own, Claire, maybe I have to go back to Munster first."
