"The power of advanced vibration, hahaha, this is advanced vibration."
"I have mastered the first stage of the Golden Cross Slash, the Shocking Cross Slash."
Levi couldn't help but enjoy the pleasure brought by this improvement in strength.
"Now, I should be able to fight against the knights, but it's a pity that I don't have a chance to experiment. After all, the Golden Cross Slash is a killing move. Once I take action, I will definitely see blood!"
Li Wei sheathed his sword. It has been a year since he practiced the Black Snake Breathing Technique. Now the Black Snake Breathing Technique is not far away from the third level and should be achieved by the end of this year.
By then, he will be a true quasi-knight.
You only need to gather the seeds of life to become an official knight.
Becoming an official knight means that you finally have the power to protect yourself in this world and have entered the ranks of the middle and upper class powerful people in this world.
Generally speaking, the difficulty of practicing the breathing method is still much more difficult than the first stage of the Golden Cross Slash.
Of course, Li Wei guessed that it might be because he had a good talent for swordsmanship.
"Next, use the Black Snake Breathing Technique with all your strength, and strive to break through to the third level as soon as possible."
After setting the goal, Levi turned on the liver-exploding mode again.
The life of a lord is like this, repetitive, boring, and boring, but every time he sees the prompt of +1 proficiency, Levi feels that it is all worth it.
…
Shenghui calendar year 1004, the winter month.
It is the third year since the end of the Thousand-Year Holy War between the Emerald Kingdom and the Tuva Empire.
Although the two countries no longer have major wars, small-scale conflicts continue.
In fact, everyone knows that this is not essentially a war between two countries.
It’s the church war behind it.
The Holy Glory Church, which believes in [Heavenly Father], and the Storm Church, which believes in [Storm Emperor], in order to expand their influence, constantly want to expand their territory and expand the influence of the church to the whole world!
Of course, it's difficult to do this.
There are seven large kingdoms and empires in the world today. The people and nobles of each country have their own belief in the true God.
There are constant overt and covert conflicts between the various forces. It is obviously difficult to destroy the other six countries and the church and unify the world.
But since the birth of the seven major churches, their purpose and significance has been to spread faith.
Therefore, in the foreseeable future, the evolution of civilization will inevitably be inseparable from the struggles of these religions.
Putting aside the war between countries, there is also a war taking place in the mountains where Blackwater Valley is located.
In the dense mountain forest, hundreds of mountain wolves surrounded a silver-white giant bear that had just woken up from hibernation.
The silver-white giant bear is a full 1.8 meters tall at the shoulders, and its body length is more than four meters.
This is one of the most famous beasts of the North: the boreal bear.
They have the strength of knights after they reach adulthood, and the best among them have the combat power of high-level knights. They can fight giant elephants with ease.
The size of this northern giant bear is actually slightly smaller because it is a female bear.
If it is an adult male bear, he usually has the strength of a peak knight.
Opposite the giant bear in the north are wolves all over the mountains and plains, and the mountain wolf king who leads these wolves.
The mountain wolf is the most terrifying existence in the Black Forest. Its individual strength is far inferior to that of the giant bear in the north. But the victory is teamwork, which is great in numbers.
But under normal circumstances, even a pack of hundreds of wolves rarely actively hunts the northern giant bears.
It's really because there are too many wolves and food is scarce this year.
This was originally the territory of the mountain wolf king, but this spring, this female bear broke into its territory, competed with it for the scant food, and even hunted its wolves from time to time.
Today, while the female bear was hibernating, the Mountain Wolf King thought about it for a long time and planned to kill the female bear and have a good meal at the same time.
Unexpectedly, this female bear was still very alert. She seemed to have sensed the arrival of the mountain wolf pack from a long distance, and actually wanted to run away. Of course, she was eventually caught up by the wolves led by the mountain wolf king.
Nowadays, the female bear who is surrounded by a bunch of mountain wolves can no longer run. In terms of speed and endurance, it is impossible for it to outrun a mountain wolf.
These are the most patient hunters, one of the few who can compete with human hunters for endurance.
It wants to fight quickly. It roars loudly and resounds throughout the forest. It lifts its front legs off the ground and stands upright. Its majestic body like a demon is as tall as two stories high.
Many ordinary mountain wolves began to retreat one after another. Seeing this, the mountain wolf king roared to the sky to boost morale for his side. It is a rare mutant wolf king, an existence that can rival the knights, although it cannot fight alone. The rival of the giant bear in the north.
But it's not The Lone Ranger.
In this way, the wolf and the bear started fighting in the valley.
Countless mountain wolves rushed towards the mother bear without fear of death. The mother bear slapped her down, and the mountain wolves that did not avoid were turned into mud.
Let alone a wolf, even a knight wearing armor, if it is not that kind of plate armor, cannot withstand the blow of the giant bear in the north. Although the plate armor can barely withstand the frontal impact, the huge force is still there It can shatter the internal organs and bones of most non-defensive Breathing Knights.
In order to survive, both sides tried their best.
There is no right or wrong, just to...live!
By the end, the giant bear in the north was covered with mountain wolves, its thick and hard fur was also scarred, and countless blood dyed the snow red.
It was tired, but it did not fall, but continued to fight.
In the end, after losing a full third of the mountain wolf's men, the female bear was already dying.
The cautious mountain wolf king then took action, biting the neck of the northern giant bear with its sharp canine teeth, and the other mountain wolves began to disembowel it.
The shrill roar of the giant bear in the north resounded through the mountains and forests, and the birds and beasts retreated.
The king of the mountains and forests is also about to fall.
There can only be one king in this area, and that is the Mountain Wolf King.
Before long, the giant bear was completely silent, and the battle was over.
The mountain wolf king was enjoying the spoils. The corpse of this giant bear, plus the corpses of his dead companions, should be enough to last for a month.
It has no mercy for the dead wolves. Anyway, as long as there is enough food, new blood will soon join the wolf pack.
What the Mountain Wolf King didn't know was that in a female bear's cave more than ten miles away, three little bears the size of calves looked sadly at the direction where their mother died, running aimlessly and in a panic.
They were born this spring. It takes more than seven years for northern giant bears to mature. At less than one year old, they may seem quite young, but in fact they have not yet learned to hunt.
Instinct tells them that perhaps being located at the junction of deep mountains and human gathering places can allow little bears like them who cannot hunt to survive. There, they can sneak into human gathering places at night, pick up garbage, and eat. Stay away from these dangerous wolves.
There are three little chubby bears, one is gray in color, one is pure white in color and is most like his mother, and the other one seems to have a genetic mutation, some are black and some are white, but he is chubby and not as majestic as his mother at all.
The three little ones were connected head to tail and stumbled towards the valley where Blackwater Valley was located. What greeted them was an unknown new life.
They have not yet learned to hunt and are not strong enough. They will most likely die and will not see the sun tomorrow, but this world is so cruel.
Living is difficult, isn't it?
