"Knight Madman".

Levi had heard of this term before. It refers to knights who have gone astray in their practice.

Now I personally feel the primitive desire to transform into a horrific beast, eating raw meat and drinking blood, and overeating.

He was somewhat shocked and even doubted whether the path of knight was the right one. According to the standards of martial arts novels in his previous life, these knightly breathing techniques were definitely magical skills. Should he continue to practice them?

But when he thought of the horrible evil spirits, the greedy and sinister noble colleagues, and the continuous wars brought about by the disputes between kingdoms, he immediately strengthened his chivalry.

Of all things in the world, life and death are the most important.

As long as you are alive, everything is possible!

Knight is the only way to protect the way that I can access at present!

"I will pay attention to it. Thank you, Sir Fred, for the reminder." Levi said gratefully.

Perhaps he would have to find a way to make money. If he continued like this, the barren Blackwater Valley would not be able to support two knights. He was afraid that the knights would become two crazy people and be eliminated by the "Glorious Knights" of the church.

Fred nodded and continued, "Next, you need to wear armor and hold a shield every day to practice with weights, and increase the difficulty. This way, you can exert the power of breathing techniques in actual combat and not be dragged down by the armor, or be unable to adapt to fighting in armor."

"In addition, there is a recipe for the black snake secret medicine on the inheritance scroll. Young Master, please write it down." Knight Fred reminded.

Levi nodded. Generally, in order to speed up the practice of breathing techniques of excellent quality, it is necessary to use corresponding secret medicines.

The secret black snake medicine has a simple recipe: 50 grams of snake blood, one snake gall, 10 grams of green water turtle shell powder, 10 grams of wood ash, three mandrake petals, a drop of ambergris, a drop of liquid amber, and 100 milliliters of pure water.

Except for ambergris, these materials are not difficult to find and are not expensive.

Among them, snake blood and snake gall can be from any kind of snake, but the effects will be different for different snakes.

Ambergris, that's a bit troublesome.

The ambergris in this world is not the product of the sperm whale’s belly in the previous life.

Instead, it comes from glands in the mouth of a giant land beast called "Earth Dragon".

The earth dragon beast, according to the kingdom's bards, is known as one of the most dangerous animals in the wilderness.

They are extremely powerful and invulnerable to swords and spears. They are common characters in chivalric adventures and bard stories, similar to the dragons in Dragon Quest stories.

In addition, Earth Dragons have another characteristic: they like to swallow shiny things, such as gold coins and gems.

Generally speaking, to deal with an adult Earth Dragon Beast, either a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Knight with the best weapons would be needed to kill it directly, or five or more formal knights would have to use traps and poison to trap the Earth Dragon Beast and then use powerful weapons such as armor-piercing crossbows to hunt it down.

One of the legendary deeds of the legendary knight "Lionheart Knight" Ryan before he became a legend was that he single-handedly hunted down an adult male earth dragon beast that was ravaging the north of the kingdom.

Previously, three great knights had gone to hunt this earth dragon beast, but all ended in failure, and even a young knight died.

In the end, the Lionheart Knight succeeded. He also found 8,000 gold coins and priceless jewels in the belly of the earth dragon.

In the era of cold weapons, hunting earth dragons was really not easy, so the price of ambergris has always been high.

A small bottle of ambergris, worth one hundred gold coins, could be exchanged for five sets of well-made knight armor, twenty healthy young serfs, or one hundred cows...

With the current financial resources of Levi, a poor lord, he cannot afford it even if he sells everything he has and exploits the serfs to death.

"I'm just starting out now, and I don't need to use secret medicine yet. Let's take our time."

In the following time, Levi began to gain experience step by step and did not feel boring at all.

In addition to gaining experience, Knight Fred would introduce Levi to some basic theoretical knowledge of knights, which benefited Levi a lot.

Knight's breathing method is a training technique that stimulates the blood potential in the knight's body by adjusting the breathing rhythm and making different movements and postures, thereby strengthening the body and improving the knight's physique, strength, endurance, speed and other all-round physical qualities.

This improvement far exceeds normal fitness training, so one must eat a lot to replenish calories after each practice. After all, there is no such thing as "spiritual energy" in this world.

Although it can improve all aspects of physical fitness, different breathing methods have different focuses.

The black snake breathing method focuses on defense.

After you have mastered this breathing method to a small degree, you can begin to try to condense the seed of life and advance to a formal knight. After that, your overall physical fitness will be greatly improved, and you will have an ability to withstand blows that is many times stronger than that of ordinary people.

In addition, a layer of light black fluid-like film will appear on the surface of the knight's arms, making the skin of the knight's arms as tough and resistant as rubber products.

Although it is not yet invulnerable to swords and guns, or indestructible, ordinary blunt force attacks can offset most of the force.

Knights generally refer to this film as "black air", while the official statement of the Holy Light Church calls it "holy power", saying that the power of the knights comes from the holy father of heaven.

In this era of divine right, the rulers behind the kingdoms are often the church. Levi thinks that the church's statement is purely to flatter itself, to facilitate PUA knights, and religion is best at this kind of thing. Since the god of your church is so awesome, why is it not the priests who can perform divine magic who are guarding the church, but the "Glorious Knights" composed of our knights.

In short, "Black Qi" can be created not only by the Black Snake Breathing Method, but also by other breathing methods, but the quality, quantity and effect are different.

If a speed-focused breathing method is used instead, the "black air" might appear on the legs, allowing the knight to have extremely strong explosive speed and agility, far surpassing the athletes in the previous life.

This is the power of the breathing method. It is not only a method to strengthen the body. After advancing to become a formal knight and giving birth to the "black energy", to some extent, the knight has embarked on the path to transcendence.

After reaching the level of Grand Knight, the black energy created by the Black Snake Breathing Technique will cover the entire body and become even harder.

Except for a few places like the eyes, the Great Knight can make his entire body invulnerable to swords and guns for a short period of time, and his ability to withstand attacks is comparable to that of the Earth Dragon Beast.

In this era of cold weapons, this is a superman. With such strength, equipped with armor, weapons, and war horses, and with the great knight's powerful combat skills and combat awareness, he can completely defeat a thousand enemies on the battlefield and change the situation of a small battle.

Therefore, Levi never believed the lies that his father died on the battlefield.

How could my father, who was close to the ceiling of human combat power, die on the battlefield? With his strength, even if he couldn't defeat thousands of troops, it would be easy for him to leave. Even a great knight of the same level would find it difficult to stop him.

As for the legendary knight taking action, it is possible, but unlikely. The legendary knight is like a dragon that is hard to find, almost detached from the world. Even the kingdom and the church find it difficult to order him to move.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

Levi could conclude that his father's death was a conspiracy between the church and the kingdom.

So, he must learn his lesson.

Before he had absolute overwhelming power, he had to just stay in this small piece of land called Blackwater Valley.

"Store up food, build high walls, and slowly become king."

Taizu's nine-character policy for pacifying the world still applies to Li Wei.

It's just that he doesn't want to be a king, he just wants to be a wealthy little lord.

The Game of Thrones is not something that ordinary people are qualified to participate in.

Levi has a good idea of ​​his own political intelligence.
