"Knight Madness".
Li Wei had heard of this term for a long time, referring to those knights who practice fire walking and become possessed by demons.
Now I personally feel the primitive desire to transform into a terrifying evil beast, to eat and drink as much as possible.
He was a little shocked, and even doubted whether the path of knights was correct. According to the standards of martial arts novels in previous lives, these knight breathing techniques were all proper magic skills. Should he continue to practice them?
But when he thought of the terrifying evil spirits, those greedy and insidious noble colleagues, and the continuous war caused by the disputes between kingdoms, he immediately strengthened his knighthood.
Of all the things in the world, life and death are the most important.
When you are alive, everything is possible!
The knight is the only way to protect himself that he has access to at the moment!
"I will pay attention, thank you Mr. Fred for the reminder." Levi said gratefully.
He may have to find a way to make money. If this continues, the barren Blackwater Valley will not be able to support two knights. Don't they turn into two knight lunatics and be eliminated by the "Glorious Knights" of the church.
Fred nodded and continued: "Next, you need to wear armor every day, hold a shield and carry out weight-bearing training to increase the difficulty, so that you can exert the power of the breathing method in actual combat and not be weighed down by the armor, or not adapt to wearing it. Armor’s battle.”
"In addition, there is a recipe for a black snake secret medicine on the inheritance scroll. The young master must have written it down." Fred Knight reminded.
Li Wei nodded. In order to speed up the practice of breathing techniques of excellent quality, it needs to be paired with the corresponding secret medicine.
The recipe for the secret black snake medicine is not complicated: fifty grams of snake blood, one piece of snake gall, ten grams of green turtle shell powder, ten grams of plant ash, three mandrake petals, one drop of ambergris, one drop of liquid amber, and one 100 ml of pure water.
These materials, except ambergris, are not difficult to find or expensive.
Among them, snake blood and snake gall can be used from any snake species, but different snakes have different effects.
Ambergris, this is a bit troublesome.
The ambergris in this world is not the product of the sperm whale's belly in the previous life.
It comes from the glands in the mouth of a giant land beast called "Earth Dragon".
Earth drake, in the mouth of the kingdom's bards, is known as one of the most dangerous animals in the wilderness.
They are extremely powerful and invulnerable, and are a common feature in knights' travels and bard stories, similar to the dragons in Dragon Quest stories.
In addition, there is another characteristic of earth dragon beasts. They like to swallow shiny things, such as gold coins and gems.
Under normal circumstances, to deal with an adult Earthdragon, one must either kill it directly with a humanoid tyrannosaurus knight equipped with the best weapons, or more than five formal knights must use traps to trap the Earthdragon with poison, and use Massive weapons like armor-piercing crossbows are designed for hunting.
One of the legendary knights "Lionheart Knight" Ryan's legendary deeds before he became a legend was to single-handedly hunt down an adult male earth dragon that was causing trouble in the north of the kingdom.
Three great knights had previously gone to hunt this earth dragon beast, but all ended in vain, and even a young great knight died as a result.
In the end, the Lionheart Knight succeeded, and he also found eight thousand gold coins and priceless jewelry in the belly of the earth dragon beast.
In the age of cold weapons, it was not easy to hunt earth dragon beasts. Therefore, not only the price of ambergris remained high, but it was also often expensive but not available.
A small bottle of ambergris, worth a hundred gold coins, can be exchanged for five sets of well-made knight armor, twenty healthy young serfs, or a hundred cows...
With the current financial resources of Li Wei, a down-and-out lord, even if he sells iron and exploits the serfs below to death, he still can't afford it.
"I've just started now, and I don't need the secret medicine yet. Let's do this slowly."
In the following time, Levi began a step-by-step liver experience, which was not boring at all.
In addition to his liver experience, Fred Knight would introduce to Levi some basic theoretical knowledge of knights, which benefited Levi a lot.
The Knight's Breathing Technique is an exercise technique that stimulates the blood potential in the Knight's body by adjusting the breathing rhythm and making different movements, thereby strengthening the body and improving all aspects of the Knight's physical fitness, strength, endurance, speed and other physical qualities.
This kind of improvement is far beyond normal fitness training, so you must eat a lot to replenish calories after each practice. After all, there is no so-called "spiritual energy" in this world.
Although it improves physical fitness in all aspects, different breathing methods have different focuses.
Black Snake Breathing Technique focuses on defense.
After practicing this breathing method to a small degree, you can start to try to condense life seeds and advance to an official knight. After that, your overall physical fitness will be greatly improved, and you will have an ability to withstand attacks that is twice that of ordinary people.
In addition, a 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 grass-resistant as rubber products.
Although it is not yet invulnerable or indestructible, ordinary blunt weapon attacks can offset most of the force.
This kind of film is generally called "black energy" by knights, but the official statement of the Holy Glory Church calls it "holy legacy power", saying that the knight's power comes from the holy father of heaven.
In this era of divine right of kings, the masters behind major kingdoms are often the church. Levi felt that the church's statement was purely to give itself a leg up. It was for the convenience of PUA knights, and religion was the best at this kind of thing. Since the god of your church is so awesome, why is it that the ones who protect the church are not priests who know magic, but the "Glorious Knights" composed of us knights?
In short, "black energy" can be produced not only by the black snake breathing method, but also by other breathing methods, but the quality, quantity, and effect are different.
If you switch to a speed-focused breathing method, "black energy" may appear on the legs, giving the knight an extremely powerful burst of speed and agility that far exceeds that of previous athletes.
This is the power of the breathing method. It is not only a method of strengthening the body. After advancing to become an official knight and giving birth to "black energy", to a certain extent, the knight has already embarked on the path to transcendence.
After reaching the level of a great knight, the black energy produced by the Black Snake Breathing Method will cover the whole body and become even harder.
Except for a few areas such as the eyes, in a short period of time, the Great Knight can become invulnerable all over his body, and his ability to withstand attacks is comparable to that of an Earthdramon.
In this era of cold weapons, this is Superman. With such strength, coupled with armor, weapons, war horses, and the powerful combat skills and combat awareness of the great knight, he can completely defeat thousands on the battlefield and change the world. The situation of a small battle.
Therefore, Levi never believed the lie that his father died in the battlefield.
How could his father, who was already 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 to leave. Even a great knight of the same level would have a hard time stopping him.
As for the legendary knight taking action, it is possible, but unlikely. The legendary knight Shenlong has never seen its head and tail, and is almost aloof. Even the kingdom and the church would find it difficult to order them to move.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
Li Wei could conclude that his father's death was a conspiracy between the church and the kingdom.
So, he must learn his lesson.
Until you don't have the absolute crushing power, you can just stay in the Blackwater Valley.
"Gather up food widely, build high walls, and slowly become king."
Taizu's nine-character policy of pacifying the world still applies to Li Wei.
It's just that he doesn't want to be king, he just wants to be a rich little lord.
The Game of Thrones is not something ordinary people are qualified to participate in.
Li Wei was very confident about his political IQ.
