Chapter 439 The Power of Crystallized Killing Moves

"Marquis Javier, thank you." Ryan smiled and bowed to express his gratitude.

"The awarding ceremony will be held after His Majesty the Emperor has fully recovered. The time will be notified separately."

"Okay." Ryan nodded.

At this time, Javier gestured to an attendant beside him, and the man smiled and said:

"Count Ryan, considering your position as an Imperial Gold-level Sword Bearer, the Conferment Committee has specially reserved a new mansion for you in the second ring of the imperial capital, which has a relatively spacious training room."

"Whenever you are free, you can go and sign for it at any time."

"Thank you."

Ryan noticed Javier's actions just now, and naturally understood that this should be a slight push from Marquis Javier.

You must know that although there are a few earl's mansions in the second ring of the imperial capital, most of them are marquis' mansions, and most of the newly promoted earls are allocated mansions in the third ring, which is similar to the location of his current mansion.

Not to mention the spacious training room, it must be the result of someone deliberately showing goodwill. A little thought will tell that it must be the work of Marquis Javier, who is serving on the Canonization Committee next to him.

After the official procedures were completed, Javier did not stay for long because of the presence of other entourages, but just made an appointment with Ryan to get together.

"Count Ryan, then we will not disturb you! Congratulations again!"

"Thank you, Marquis Javier, thank you, Your Excellencies." Ryan stood up to see them off and smiled.

After Javier and his group left, Ryan thought for a moment and decided to take over the new mansion first.

Because he was going on a long journey this time, if the mansion was moved to the second ring of the imperial capital where the high-level nobles lived, the security would naturally be improved.

In addition, the Ereda sisters, who had reached the peak of legendary strength, were stationed in the mansion, so it should be safe.

He was also free from worries.

So Ryan called the Ereda sisters and their families, a total of three carriages, and headed towards the new mansion.

Mother Emma and father Old Ryan were a little confused at first, until they heard the story of the little Matteo, they knew that their son was promoted to the Count of the Empire, and they were shocked.

It has been less than a year since he was promoted to Viscount, and he has become Count again?

The two old people looked at each other in surprise, but Little Mint's eyes were bright. He always thought that his brother Ryan was the best,

and it was natural for him to be promoted to Count. Although the second and third ring roads are adjacent, both the greening beauty and the patrol frequency have been raised to a higher level, which fully reflects the hierarchical differences in the Empire, and clearly distinguishes the treatment of senior nobles above the Count and middle and low-level nobles such as Viscounts and Barons.

After a while, everyone arrived at the destination.

I saw that Ryan's new mansion covers a large area, with front and back gardens. The front yard is slightly larger, where the main building and auxiliary building are located, and the back yard is slightly smaller, where the stables are located.

The Erida sisters looked at each other, and they immediately telepathically said:

"Sister, I originally felt that Lord Ryan's mansion was a bit mismatched compared to his strength, but this mansion is quite impressive."

"Well, according to Lord Ryan's strength, I actually think he should live in the inner ring. But we should talk about this in private, and remember not to tell others, or people will misunderstand." "

Yeah, sister, I know, I'm not stupid."

It's no wonder that Erida had complained before, because the original mansion of Ryan was only a small lawn, and the training room was not big enough. For her, practicing extraordinary combat skills was really a bit cramped.

At this time, little Mint ran over with a smile and said, "Sister Erida, why are you smiling so happily?"

After two days, Mint had already become friends with the Erida sisters.

She was very curious and a little reserved about the two twin sisters at first, but after getting familiar with them, she found that they were easy to get along with, especially the lively Erida, who became familiar with her all of a sudden.

Erida and Mint have a particularly close relationship.

"Little Mint, because sister has a bigger place to play with you." Alida pinched Mint's delicate and tender face with both hands, and said rather dotingly.

"Oh, sister Alida, you are good in everything, but can you please not pinch my face? It won't look good if you pinch it too much!"

"No, no! Little Mint is the most beautiful."

"Hehe, really? Sister Alida is so nice. By the way, I just heard from my brother that there is a very large training room on the first floor of the main building. Sister Alida, when will you teach me the war blade?" Mint smiled and said.

As Mint grew up, she also became interested in fighting skills. Of course, she was selective. She was particularly interested in "beautiful" fighting skills.

For example, Alida's war blade, the gorgeous knife flowers that were swung up made Mint dazzled for the first time.

"Okay, if you like it, I will teach you." Alida agreed.

Although Alida was puzzled as to why Lord Ryan didn't teach his own sister, at first, she thought there was some deep meaning, but later she found out that it was not.

The key to the problem lies with Mint. She is more interested in gorgeous fighting skills, but has little interest in her brother's low-key but extremely practical extraordinary fighting skills.

Sure enough, girls are emotional creatures most of the time!

Of course, it's not that Ryan's extraordinary fighting skills are not gorgeous enough, but his gorgeous ones are not something that ordinary people can perform, but knife flowers are different. Ordinary people can also do it after they become proficient.

An hour later, everyone who had finished the tour, including Ryan's mother Emma, ​​were very satisfied with the new mansion and decided to move in immediately.

This is naturally the best for Ryan, saving the trouble of persuasion. Soon, the servants and guards began to move.

Ryan found a gap and explained some things to the two sisters Erida:

"I plan to go to Ferdinand Forest tomorrow, so you don't have to go. You are responsible for the safety of the new mansion."

"In the imperial capital, it is difficult for the people of the Secret Snake Cult to make any big moves, so there should be no big problem in terms of safety. You have just left the Secret Snake Cult, so it is safer to stay in the imperial capital for a while."

Hearing what Ryan said, the two sisters couldn't help but feel moved. They looked at each other and felt a little warm.

"Thank you, Lord Ryan, but do you really not need any more manpower?" Arida couldn't help but ask.

"The Sword Bearer Headquarters is responsible for the logistics of this operation. It is convenient for me to go alone." Ryan smiled and said.

"Well, Lord Ryan, then you should be careful. If you need support, please write to me at any time." Sister Arida said.

But as soon as she said it, she suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.

After all, if Ryan couldn't solve the enemy, then the two sisters would just be sending food there.

"Pooh! Pooh! Sorry, Lord Ryan, I said the wrong thing! Lord Ryan wishes you a safe journey!" Arida quickly changed her words.

"Thank you!" Ryan said with a smile.

He didn't mind Arida's straightforwardness.

After spending some time together, he found that it seemed that because the extraordinary combat skills that Elida practiced were biased towards speed, sometimes her hands turned faster than her brain, and as for her mouth, it was faster than her hands!

After explaining some things to his family, Ryan planned to go to the headquarters. He wanted to test the power of the new witchcraft, so naturally he had to go to the witchcraft test room at the headquarters.

Soon, Ryan took a carriage to the Sword Bearer Headquarters.

Under the guidance of the young female staff, Ryan came to the third-level witchcraft test room with familiarity.

"Lord Ryan, if you have any other needs, please call me at any time."

"Okay, thank you." Ryan nodded and said.

"It should be, it's my honor to serve you!" The young female staff smiled and bowed, and took the initiative to close the door.

After the female staff left, Ryan did not test it immediately, but began to release "Metal Transfiguration", "Cutting Net" and "Sawtooth Ring" repeatedly to experience the connection between them.

Since Metal Transfiguration has long been a natural witchcraft, and the latter two have reached level 20, the proficiency is beyond words.

Therefore, soon, Ryan grasped the trick of how to release the three in series.

At the same time, the system prompt also sounded:

[Ding! The host comprehended the prototype of the crystallization killing move. Do you want to consume 79 gold skill points to deduce and perfect it? ]

"Hiss, it actually consumes 79 points." Ryan couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Because these three witchcrafts can form a crystallization killing move without additional deduction, it seems that the deduction and perfection described by the system also includes the content of personal adaptive changes, but it is precisely because of this that Ryan feels that the consumption of gold skill points is too much.

But soon, Ryan seemed to understand something and suddenly laughed.

"Because if the greater the consumption, the stronger the power of the killing move, then there is naturally nothing wrong. It is a good thing to consume more gold skill points."

Ryan remembered that the previous deduction of the liquefied killing move "Multiple Cutting Nets" only consumed 42 gold skill points, and this time, it consumed nearly twice as much. It is very likely that there will be a surprise waiting for him.

As the points were added, a surge of witchcraft training memories poured into Ryan's mind, as if he had been practicing the coordination of these three witchcrafts for more than a hundred years in a mysterious space!

When Ryan opened his eyes again, his understanding of the correlation between the three witchcrafts had become one.

[Ding! Deduction successful! The host has comprehended the metal crystallization killer move "Sawtooth Cutting Net"! ]

"Finally, I have my own crystallization killer move." After Ryan carefully comprehended the new killer move, he immediately showed joy.

Before, he only had one liquefied killer move "Multiple Cutting Nets", and no other witchcraft killer moves. Of course, there was another third-level attack witchcraft "Thorn Iron Ball".

But the power of the former is top-notch if it is placed at the level of a second-level liquefied wizard, but if it is placed among a third-level crystallized wizard, it is only equivalent to the power of an ordinary third-level witchcraft.

As for the latter, it is more of a single attack. Although it is powerful, it is not flexible enough. Even though Ryan has upgraded it to level 20, this sorcery is straightforward and easy for the enemy to dodge. It needs to be combined with the "Metal Cage" to fully exert its power.

But now it is different.

This crystallized killer move "Sawtooth Cutting Net" is far superior to the previous two in terms of power and attack flexibility.

"The first-level talent sorcery "Metal Transfiguration", the second-level sorcery "Cutting Net" and the third-level sorcery "Sawtooth Ring" are released continuously to form a combination sorcery: Sawtooth Cutting Net!"

Ryan couldn't hold back his excitement and started to try it immediately.

"First-level sorcery Metal Transfiguration!"

"Second-level sorcery Cutting Net!"

"Third-level sorcery Sawtooth Ring!"

"Crystallized killer move: Sawtooth Cutting Net!"

As Ryan quickly chanted the spell, he saw six sawtooth metal rings that made a "buzzing" sound and rotated at high speed suddenly appeared in front of him.

The metal sawtooth ring was silver in color and about two meters in diameter. With a slight thought, Ryan could quickly adjust the direction. In terms of attack range, it was much larger than the previous liquefied killer move 'Multiple Cut Nets'.

In addition, according to the information provided by Hamadi, the crystallized killer move 'Sawtooth Cut Net' should normally have four metal sawtooth rings, but Ryan was able to perform six.

This is most likely due to his super affinity for metal elements, plus the bonus of three layers of the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method.

As for the power, you will know it after trying it.

Ryan waved his right hand, and six buzzing metal sawtooth rings attacked the metal cylinder in front of him one after another!

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

The originally flat cross-section of the giant metal block was instantly hit with six horizontal and vertical cutting marks, and then there were several loud noises of "boom! boom!"

The metal cylinder weighing several tons was actually cut into several sections and fell to the ground.

On the stone slab beside, a value that made Ryan speechless was displayed——? ? ? .

"Three question marks? Is this off the charts?" Ryan was a little speechless. He didn't expect that the third-level witchcraft test room could not test the upper limit of the witchcraft power of his new killer move.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

There was a hurried knock on the door, and at the same time, the voice of the female staff just now sounded, and obvious anxiety could be heard from it:

"Lord Ryan, what happened to you? Do you need rescue?"

"Sorry, I'm fine. But you may need to contact someone to report it, and the cost can be deducted from my side." Ryan opened the door and said apologetically.

"Okay, okay, Lord Ryan." The female staff looked inside through the crack in the door and was immediately stunned. Her eyes were wide open and she stammered.

At noon the next day.

On the small airship that had just taken off from the Sword Bearer Headquarters.

At this moment, Ryan was making a new leather armor in the cabin alone - 'Murloc Scale Breastplate'. Since the journey would take a day and a half of flight time, Ryan decided not to waste it and boarded the airship with the raw materials and tools.

The Murloc Scale Breastplate is based on the thick leather breastplate, with the scales of adult black-finned murlocs sewn on both sides. This kind of scale is quite strong, and its defense is even better than that of chain mail, but it is very light. Of course, it is also very difficult to make.

But it is precisely because of this that Ryan chose it, which can bring a lot of experience points.

However, Ryan's behavior naturally made the headquarters logistics staff accompanying this time quite strange.

They have also served many adamantine-level sword bearers, but this is the first time they have encountered such a person.

"Sir Olena, is this a hobby of Sir Ryan?" Claire couldn't help but curiously asked Olena, a capable young woman beside her.

This time, Claire and Beyonce both came. The two heard that their captain was going out on a mission during a casual chat with Olena.

The two immediately found Ryan and offered to accompany Olena on this mission as a logistics staff.

This immediately gave Ryan no reason to refuse.

After all, Olena, whose strength was almost that of a second-level wizard apprentice, could go, so it was impossible to say that these two sword holders, whose strength reached the magic iron level and the mithril level respectively, could not go.

"Don't ask about Lord Ryan's affairs." Olena gently patted Claire's smooth forehead and scolded with a smile.

Since Ryan, as the captain, was away from the headquarters for a long time, Olena was more familiar with the two women in Ryan's team.

"You can't ask about this!" Claire shrank her head and said.

"This should be a way to adjust your state of mind before the battle." Olena said softly.

Olena had discovered Ryan's strange behavior once before. When she was in Munster, her young boss, Lord Ryan, was learning tailoring from a tailor.

Later, she found relevant information and found that some combatants would use artistic means such as painting and singing to improve their concentration.

I think Lord Ryan should be in a similar situation.

"Is that so? Okay!" Claire nodded, not quite understanding.

Beyonce, who was wearing a tight leather armor and had a hot body, listened and agreed with it!

After a day and a half of flying, Ryan also walked out of the cabin and looked into the distance.

After more than a day of production, his leatherworker professional level has been upgraded to level 9, allowing him to gain 2 attribute points and 2 skill points again.

Currently, Ryan has 14 attribute points, 2 skill points and 124 gold skill points.

Basically, 14 attribute points can basically support him in three medium-intensity battles in four forms.

"Look over there!"

At this time, someone suddenly pointed excitedly at the side of the ship.

Ryan followed the sight of the crowd and saw a vast, lush forest that stretched to the horizon. For a moment, everyone seemed to be in the ocean of forests, feeling refreshed!

However, Ryan soon discovered that there was something strange in the forest in the distance.

"Hey, what's that over there?"

Ryan stared at a forest in the distance with a solemn expression.

Because his eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people, he could clearly see that at the end of the forest tens of kilometers away from the airship, there was a forest with a very strange color.

It seemed to emit a faint red glow, and there were also wisps of gray mist.

Judging from the map Ryan had seen before, that should be the southern part of Ferdinand Forest.

"This should be the earliest breach, the area where the Mother Tree Cult first launched the attack." Ryan thought to himself.

At this time, Olena stepped forward and pointed to a rocky outpost several kilometers away, saying:

"Lord Ryan, outpost No. 7 is ahead."

"Yes!" Ryan nodded.

This outpost No. 7 was built on a slightly higher hillside. It was a three-story circular outpost built with huge rocks. It also served as an observation tower and a small airship berthing point.

Ryan noticed that the rocks of the outpost were special. They were gray and white and looked very solid. This kind of stone was either brought up from underground by high-level earth wizards or transported from other places.

"It seems that the elves are cautious about the empire, but similarly, the empire also has necessary precautions against the elves." Ryan said.

"That's right. There are dozens of outposts like this. Most of them were built hundreds of years ago and are scattered around the Ferdinand Forest. The main purpose is to monitor the movements of a certain scale of elves." Olena introduced.

As the airship slowly docked on the third floor of the outpost, Ryan took the lead and walked down the airship.

"My lord, welcome to the outpost No. 7. I am the outpost commander Ian." A burly middle-aged man in the uniform of an imperial colonel, accompanied by two lieutenants, saluted Ryan at the berthing point.

While saluting, Ian quickly looked at Ryan and his group.

He had just received news yesterday that the head of the Empire's special forces would arrive in the near future, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. They were notified yesterday, but they arrived today.

At first, he thought it was a surprise inspection by the military.

Another thing is that

this adult looks too young!

However, this trip is quite stylish. A young woman in a professional suit standing next to him is obviously a female secretary. There seems to be a complete logistics support team holding various equipment. Hey, there is also a beautiful female wizard and a ranger behind them.

Hiss, this ranger! What a figure!

For a moment, Ian's psychological activities were quite intense.

You know, the number of special operations teams they have received here is not small, but this configuration is still very rare.

No, it can be said that it is the first time I have seen it!

There seems to be only one combatant? Or three? But the logistics staff is almost twenty people.
