Chapter 132 Hand it in? Go to hell with you!
In the square outside the church in Shimmering Gold.
A group of nobles dressed in gorgeous clothes or wearing plate armor were surrounding a young man in the middle of the venue who was demonstrating swordsmanship.
The busy night watchmen on the side, seeing this scene, couldn't help but slow down their movements and stretched their necks to look over curiously.
"Hey, it's Lord Ryan!"
"Yes, it's the new deputy sheriff, Lord Ryan!"
"Yes, it's Ryan, and it seems that he is going to demonstrate swordsmanship."
Because Ryan was the youngest among his colleagues in the night watch, although Ryan's position was constantly promoted, many night watchmen still called him by his name.
It's not disrespect, but the time is too short and they are not used to it.
At first, they called him Little Ryan, then Ryan, and more than half a month ago, they called him Captain, and now he has become the deputy sheriff. This promotion speed is simply unparalleled!
I don't know how long it will take for the word "deputy" to be removed.
Ryan's face became serious. He first slashed with an extremely fast step, and then slashed with a fierce jump.
Suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking through the air rang out in the venue!
"Chop!"
"Jump!"
"Whirlwind Slash"
"."
Ryan's giant bear swordsmanship, each style of connection is extremely smooth, giving people the feeling that they are watching a dance of strength and beauty!
"Sure enough, Ryan's giant bear swordsmanship has reached the level of mastery!"
"Ryan, this kid, is progressing too fast!" Hamilton's eyes suddenly widened and muttered to himself.
As Ryan's direct superior, Hamilton can be said to have watched Ryan grow stronger step by step from an ordinary farmer's son.
Now Hamilton thinks back carefully, Ryan's strength will reach a new level almost every once in a while.
After carefully comparing the difference in combat power between him and Ryan, Hamilton was surprised to find that Ryan's current strength seemed to be no less than his!
Perhaps, Ryan was still a little behind him in combat experience, but the gap was minimal.
Hamilton had to admit that Ryan was already a master of the same level as him!
But how old was he?
How old was Ryan?
It had to be said that Ryan's rise was a bit blinding to his eyes!
"This is the mastery level of Giant Bear Swordsmanship!"
"Only fourteen or fifteen years old, he has reached this level! What an amazing talent!"
At the side of the field, another person who was most impressed by the Giant Bear Swordsmanship performed by Ryan was the swordsmanship instructor of the noble descendants of the Habsburg Manor - Perez!
At this moment, he also had an incredible expression on his face, looking at Ryan who was demonstrating the Giant Bear Swordsmanship in the center of the field.
Because Perez also majored in Giant Bear Swordsmanship, he remembered very clearly that when he reached Ryan's current level, he had been practicing Giant Bear Swordsmanship for about four or five years!
Although he was not familiar with Ryan, and did not know the specific time when Ryan practiced Giant Bear Swordsmanship.
But if you think about it, you will know that Ryan must not have practiced Giant Bear Swordsmanship for a long time.
Maybe a year?
But it couldn't be more than two years anyway!
The reason was simple. The two-handed sword itself weighed dozens of pounds.
It was absolutely impossible for a commoner of eleven or twelve years old to swing it.
After all, it could be seen from the body shape of Ryan that he was similar to that of a normal person that he was not a person with extraordinary strength.
Alonso was more and more frightened, his face gradually became gloomy, and even a certain fear was faintly generated in his heart, because he found that the rapid improvement of Ryan's strength made him think of someone.
That was his sister - Claire!
Alonso remembered very clearly that when he was already a third-level knight attendant, Claire had just learned to hold a sword.
But two years later, he could only tie with Claire.
The third year.
There was only defeat but no victory!
Although, in the past year, with the sufficient supply of divine blood from the Black Flame Church, his strength had improved rapidly, but now it seemed that it was still a very stupid thing to compare the progress of cultivation with such a person with extremely high talent.
Fortunately, Alonso had already anticipated this from his sister Claire.
That's why he cooperated with the Black Flame Church and expected to gain something from the Black Flame Prayer Ceremony.
If he could gain the ability to control the Black Flame or other special abilities through the ceremony, he would have a surge in strength! While
Alonso was feeling uneasy, everyone in the church was watching Ryan's swordsmanship demonstration intently.
"Beryl, what do you think of Ryan's swordsmanship?" Priest Rudolf turned to ask a Templar Knight beside him.
"Very strong, not inferior to me, but judging from his age, I am far inferior!"
"I think this new Knight Extraordinary Ryan should have both excellent swordsmanship and knightly talents."
"Just as I thought. It's a pity that such a talent couldn't join our Goddess Church." Priest Rudolf nodded and couldn't help but sigh.
"However, Father Rudolf, if Ryan only has the strength he has shown so far, he may have a certain possibility of killing ordinary Black Flame Monks, but I think he is still unable to kill a strong man at the apostle level."
The Templar Knight named Beryl seemed to be watching very carefully. After observing carefully for a while, he expressed his judgment.
"Well, you're right! But I guess Ryan must have a trump card, but it's not easy to show it in this situation." Priest Rudolf nodded, as if he agreed with Beryl's opinion.
"From the swordsmanship he showed, it's at least possible to kill an 'Apostle Level', isn't it?" Rudolf said with a smile.
"Well, you're right!" Beryl was stunned for a moment, then he agreed with a smile.
Among all the nobles present, the only one who couldn't see through the other's thoughts was the county sheriff, Viscount Hamady. He looked at Ryan expressionlessly, wondering what he was thinking.
Baroness Crowley and Jenny, on the side, looked at him with bright eyes.
For them, they naturally expected Ryan, the guardian knight of the Crowley family, to be as strong as possible.
Ryan's swordsmanship demonstration lasted less than ten seconds before it ended.
However, it left a deep impression on the people watching around.
Hamilton stepped forward, patted Ryan's shoulder with a complicated look, and whispered: "Ryan, you gave me another big surprise."
"Your Giant Bear Swordsmanship has reached the level of proficiency, which is amazing!"
"Also, after this review, I estimate that the 1,000 merit points required for your canonization will be enough."
"I was a little worried that you were promoted to the extraordinary level too recently and lacked strength. Now it seems that my worries are a bit redundant."
"Huh?"
This made Ryan slightly happy. He really didn't expect that these Black Flame monks were so 'valuable'.
He originally thought that it would take at least a few months of accumulation to accumulate 1,000 merit points to sign up for the canonization assessment.
While Ryan and Hamilton were talking, a Templar Knight walked up to Rudolph and whispered:
"Patriarch Rudolph, I think you should go and see what's going on inside the church."
Rudolph raised his eyebrows, looked up, and looked at the Templar Knight in surprise. He nodded slightly, which made Rudolph's face darken.
Rudolph took Beryl and walked quickly into the church to check the scene.
After carefully examining the bodies of several residents of Shining Gold Town, Priest Rudolph's face was as dark as water, and he said: "The blood ceremony of the Black Flame Church was held here, and it seems to have been successful."
"Hey! If all the extraordinary people of the Black Flame Cult were killed by Ryan according to what the night watchman said just now, then the crystals that store their blood energy should be in Ryan's hands."
Beryl frowned, suddenly realized something, and reminded him.
"That's right!"
"Go ask Ryan if the 'energy storage crystal' is still there, or has it been destroyed in the previous battle." Priest Rudolf thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Priest!" Beryl strode out of the church.
Soon, Beryl came to Ryan who was talking to Hamilton and asked, "Sir Ryan, excuse me, did you see a diamond-shaped crystal in the battle with the Black Flame Monk?"
Ryan thought for a moment and nodded. Of course he remembered the blood-red diamond-shaped crystal on the top of the bone staff.
Not only did he remember it, but he was also impressed, because as soon as he touched the bone staff, it gave him a job change prompt.
"That's great! Sir Ryan, this crystal has extraordinary significance for the church. Can you..."
"Wait, according to regulations, this crystal is a trophy and needs to be handed over to the empire. The church can only say sorry." Suddenly, someone interrupted Beryl's speech.
Ryan turned around and saw his boss's boss, Viscount Hamadi, walking over with a smile on his face.
"Hamilton, what do you think?" Viscount Hamadi turned around and asked Hamilton.
"This Viscount, according to the regulations, it is indeed so." Hamilton's face was a little unhappy, but he still nodded.
Although he had doubts about Viscount Hamadi's position, it was impossible to overthrow a Viscount without real evidence.
Hamadi also explained Andrews' sudden rebellion and the attack on Ryan, and said that he was completely kept in the dark and had no knowledge of it.
In addition, even if Viscount Hamadi had a problem, according to regulations, it would be handled at the provincial level.
"Ryan, the value assessment of the energy storage crystal can be directly converted into merit points for you after conversion. Perhaps, for you, merit points are more useful than gold coins." Hamadi turned around and said to Ryan.
Ryan first glanced at Hamilton, and saw Hamilton nodded slightly to him.
It seems that he himself is afraid that he can't keep this unknown strange object determined by the system.
'A higher rank can crush a person', not to mention that he is two levels higher, he originally wanted to keep it and study it carefully.
So, Ryan nodded to Hamadi and said, "Okay, Lord Viscount, wait a moment, I will go home now."
After returning home, Ryan went back to his room, locked the door immediately, picked up the bone staff and looked at it carefully.
But Ryan changed his mind, whether it was Hamadi or the Templar, they were all talking about crystals, so he didn't have to hand over this bone staff.
I wonder if the crystal can be removed separately.
After a little exploration, Ryan soon found that there seemed to be a slot between the bone staff and the blood-colored diamond crystal, so Ryan grabbed the fist-sized crystal in one hand and the bone staff in the other hand, and broke it hard.
With a "click", the blood-colored diamond crystal was taken off separately.
"Since you only want the crystal, I will keep this bone staff." Ryan thought to himself.
However, when Ryan held the crystal, the system prompt suddenly sounded.
[Ding! A large amount of unknown absorbable energy was detected. Do you want to absorb it? (Note: After absorption, it can be converted into designated professional experience points.)]
Hiss!
Ryan couldn't help but take a breath of cold air!
"Damn! There is such a good thing?"
"Then I don't need to think about it. Of course I choose to absorb it!
" "Hand it over? Go to hell!"
