Levi Sneak -

Black Snake Breathing Technique: Level 2 (1002/5000)

Golden Cross Slash: Level 2 (3/5000), Special Effect: Intermediate Vibration

…

"The special effect has been upgraded to intermediate vibration."

Levi pulled out Frostmourne, his body and arms shook rapidly, and the force-generating techniques formed by muscle memory were released instantly.

Frostmourne hummed and clanged, cutting through the void.

Clang!

Clang!

A graceful cross with cold light emerges.

Levi divided the ordinary wooden stake, as thick as a bowl, into four neat parts.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +1]

He changed his target of attack to the black dragon stake.

Same strength and technique.

This time, the cross cut only penetrated an inch into the black dragon stake and then became unable to move.

Levi pulled it out with force and sheathed the sword.

"Huh, the effect of the intermediate vibration force is very obvious. At least it can cut through ordinary wooden stakes with one sword, but the black dragon wooden stake is still far behind."

"It seems that I have to reach the third level and master the power of advanced vibration before I can achieve the effect of Knight Fred."

"As for the ripple force, I think I need to reach the fourth level."

It doesn’t take long to go from level 1 to level 2, after all, it only takes one thousand experience points.

However, the difficulty increases dramatically from the second level to the third level.

Whether it was the breathing method or the Golden Cross Slash, Levi was temporarily stuck in a bottleneck.

The next breakthrough will be at least half a year later.

He was not in a hurry. After mastering the intermediate vibration power, he felt that his strength had improved greatly, but he still lacked some practical training, so he planned to conduct practical training every once in a while.

It was not a drill like Knight Fred's, but a real battle.

Levi decided to go to the back mountain of the territory to look for an opponent. He had already thought of the perfect person for actual combat training.

…

The reason why Montenegro Province is called "Montenegro" is because of the Montenegro Mountains which run for more than a thousand miles.

The Black Mountain Range is covered with dense black forests all year round, which are filled with various types of primitive coniferous forests. There is no telling how many ferocious beasts are hidden in the snowy forests.

The Blackwater Valley is located at the foot of a branch of the Black Mountain Range.

This place is on the outskirts of the Black Mountains, and compared to the depths of the Black Mountains, there are not as many wild beasts.

The most representative creature in the entire Black Mountain ecosystem is the "mountain wolf". They are widely distributed in the wilderness areas in the north of the kingdom. Generally, they appear in groups of three or five, making them a good combat target for Levi.

According to his experience in basic archery, proficiency is usually gained through actual combat training. And the Mountain Wolf is undoubtedly a good target for actual combat.

They are natural hunters, with an average shoulder height of over one meter. They are much larger than the largest North American gray wolf in the past, and even larger than the extinct "dire wolf".

They are more ferocious and have stronger bones because there are many beasts living in the Black Mountains that are stronger than them.

For example, there is the "Giant Bear of the North" whose strength is comparable to that of a knight, or the king-level beasts of the Black Mountains, such as the "Silver Sabre-toothed Lion" and the "Armored Mammoth", which are comparable to great knights.

Of course, as a knight squire, Levi naturally did not dare to look for those powerful beings, nor did he dare to look for a large mountain wolf pack.

His target was a small pack of three or so wolves or a lone mountain wolf.

Anyway, with Knight Fred leading the charge, even if the giant bear from the north appears, they will be safe.

As for those king-level beasts, they only appear in the core areas. Levi only hunts on the edge and it is basically impossible for him to encounter them.

A fat and strong snow deer was foraging in front. It was a common herbivorous animal in the Black Mountains. When Levi was training basic archery, he would go into the mountains to hunt one every now and then.

Hunted venison is a great food source for territories with low productivity, and most importantly, snow deer meat is really delicious.

Knight Fred was also an experienced hunter. He was responsible for keeping watch on the surrounding situation. Levi drew the bow and put an arrow on it. He easily pulled the bowstring to its full length with great force.

The effective range of this bow is 120 meters. Levi is now about 80 meters away from the snow deer, separated by some dense forests. The deer has not noticed Levi yet and is busy eating grass.

With a whoosh sound.

With his archery skills at the maximum level, it was impossible for Levi to miss.

The arrow penetrated deeply into the snow deer's head under the huge force and pierced its skull.

Soon, the snow deer fell to the ground.

"Use it as bait. With a wolf's nose, it will soon be able to smell the blood."

"Sir Fred, let's climb the tree."

Levi sat on the tree, waiting for the opportunity.

Time passes by every second.

Not long after, the sound of wolf howling was heard from the nearby forest.

“Ouch…”

Then, there was another different wolf howl in response.

"Four."

"Do you need my help?"

Knight Fred said.

Levi shook his head: "If I can't beat you, I can just attack you again. With the armor on, it shouldn't be a problem."

After a while, four mountain wolves as big as calves appeared in the woods below, sniffing the surrounding air vigilantly.

Fortunately, Fred and Levi are both experienced hunters, and Levi has mastered the hunting skills to the maximum level, and he had already made special treatments for the smell.

Finally, all four wolves gathered around the snow deer carcass.

The strongest wolf even started to rob his stomach directly.

Without the permission of the leader wolf, the other wolves dared not eat even though they were drooling.

Right at this moment.

A rope dropped from the sky. Levi followed the rope, wearing armor, and landed heavily on the ground. The snow seemed to be shaking.

boom!

The cushioning effect of the snow and Levi's strong body allowed him to land smoothly.

The alert mountain wolf immediately noticed something was wrong and roared for a while but failed to scare Levi away.

Led by the leader, the other wolves all rushed towards Levi.

They are extremely fast, and even experienced hunters can only run away from the road or trees when they encounter them.

Golden Cross Slash!

The sword light from the cross slash stirred up the ice and snow.

A mountain wolf was cut into four by the sword light, and its internal organs flowed all over the ground.

Kill with one blow, extremely simple and brutal.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +5]

This perfect cross slash gave Levi a five-point increase in proficiency.

This has never happened before.

The wolf leader looked at Levi in ​​horror. Being quite intelligent, it immediately knew that it was no match for the human in front of it, so it ran away immediately.

"You've eaten my venison and you want to run away?"

Wolf meat tastes good, so Levi naturally wouldn't let it go.

The territory was too poor. Even if he was the lord, if he wanted to eat as much as he wanted, he had to hunt for himself.

Levi did not use archery, but chased after him quickly.

Although he was wearing armor, his agility and speed were not much slower than those of a mountain wolf in a short period of time. He quickly caught up with one of them and slashed it with the Golden Cross!

Another mountain wolf was dismembered, blood splattered on the armor.
