Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Whaler
In the morning, there is a cultural class, and in the afternoon is the training of knights.
So the day was busy and long for Du Yueming.
He would always sit in the classroom for a morning and then spend an afternoon in the cultivation room.
Du Yueming rarely communicates with others, he is very boring, and boredom will magnify the sense of the passage of time, and he will feel that it is long, in the large blank time, the sun always pulls his lonely shadow.
But in this way, he felt that it was nothing, because many things were "solo sports", and when he calmed down alone, he learned a lot.
Except for the damn "Theology" in the cultural course, Du Yueming felt that the rest of the subjects were quite interesting.
And the cultivation of fighting qi in the early stage is also quite boring, every day is exercise, meditation, swordsmanship and martial arts cultivation, in the long run, Du Yueming began to doubt whether he would become the appearance of Saitama Teacher - "extremely smart".
However, if you can exchange "extremely smart" for a punch invincible, Du Yueming is happy.
There is a curfew at 11 o'clock at night, but it's not hard to get out. The city's nightlife is quite rich, casinos, fighting rings, bars, or the red light district that Li Xuwu saw that day, but Du Yueming is not very interested in these. If there was an Internet café, this kid might have considered going out, but unfortunately he didn't.
So most of the time he stayed in the dorm.
In the dormitory, Du Yueming found a book called "The Whaler", there was no signature, I don't know which predecessor left it, it was full of legends, and it was quite interesting to read.
In the era of alchemy industry, whale oil was an important industrial raw material, which was widely used in the lighting industry and tempering baths in the alchemy process. As a result, whaling is so popular among humans that every year countless magic ships depart from the mainland, riding the waves all the way until they return with a full load of whales. And whales are a very spiritual beast, some people say that their mournful cry is the heaviest sound in the world, and the hands of whalers are the coldest in the world.
Eventually, humanity's massive hunting angered the sleeping troll Kraken, which took revenge on the greedy humans by triggering a massive wave that devoured the continent. Humanity gathered all its strength, and legend has it that knights and magicians sealed Kraken into the abyss near the Demon Realm. However, it is rumored that the Kraken is not completely sealed, and that it will awaken from the abyss every hundred years, causing a night tide that will sweep through the world.
It's an interesting story, like an epic.
Du Yueming has looked through it several times during this time.
This kind of legend, true and false, false and true, has been exaggerated and repeatedly praised by wandering poets, and it is good to take a look at the story. Anyway, Du Yueming thinks so, even if this continent is full of legends of gods and ghosts.
However, it is worth mentioning that the book also predicts that the Kraken will awaken again in the next 10 years.
Time flies, and in the midst of systematic cultivation and study, two months have passed in a blink of an eye.
During this time, Du Yueming directly broke through from 5 stars to 7 stars for the squire knight, of course, he was improving, and the other students in the class were also improving.
The awakening of Dou Qi is generally around 10 years old, due to the immaturity of the initial bone development or something, the initial cultivation at this stage is extremely slow, and it is generally based on laying a good foundation and slowly recuperating. Therefore, in the whole 6 years, the strength of most of the students has not improved much.
After entering the academy, it was completely different from the previous cultivation.
At this time, the students are basically well developed, and under such systematic teaching. Therefore, the progress must be rapid, and many people have broken through in two consecutive months, and perhaps within a year, most of the people in their class will become official knights.
It took five or six years for others to lay the foundation, but Du Yueming only took a few months to lay the foundation, but the foundation did not lose to anyone.
At this time, Du Yueming gradually realized the excellence of Lison and Lin Yuetong's teaching.
"Whalers have the coldest hands in the world. ”
Du Yueming gently stroked the sentence on the title page with his hand, and finally closed the book.
After reading a book many times, I finally lost the interest in continuing to read it. He rubbed his eyes and blew out the whale oil lamp on the table, not going to look any further.
The clock was fixed at ten o'clock in the evening.
Du Yueming didn't plan to fall asleep.
Tomorrow is an important day, and after two months of penance, all the trainees will go to a dark concentration camp in the southern part of the Moon Empire to fight the dark bloods for real training.
This activity is quite important for the evaluation of semester grades, and it is said to last for almost a month.
Du Yueming promised Lisian to be an excellent student, and the so-called excellent student must first pass the grades, which is probably a consensus.
Therefore, Du Yueming had no reason not to go to the concentration camp and perform well.
"The battle on the Marst Line is tight, and everyone must be aware of going to battle, so it is necessary to have a true understanding of the dark race. This is the reason given by the mentor for this operation.
Du Yueming felt that this matter was justified, but it was much more legitimate than the reason why he was called to vote for the school leaders when he was in college before.
Du Yueming was a little distressed, one-fifth of the time of a year had passed, and he still had fifty or sixty thousand gold coins in his hand, which made him very worried, and it was quite difficult for him to reach the third-order Tattooed Knight according to his current cultivation speed.
Breaking through from a knight squire to a knight shouldn't be a problem, but the difficulty of breaking through from a knight to a tattooed knight is a steep increase.
Because this is a watershed in strength, many people on the mainland will not even be able to break through to the Tattooed Knight in a lifetime.
After becoming a Tattooed Knight, the knight's fighting spirit will be manifested, he can use the magic gun, and he can officially sign a contract with the monster to have his own mount.
The three major improvements can be said to be beyond the reach of the peak second-order knights.
The few requests I promised to Reesen, the only thing I can do now is probably to live well. Du Yue said in his heart.
Think about it, Reeson asked to tie up the heir's resources. Du Yueming was a little panicked, he had gained a lot during this time, so he became very afraid of losing.
It seems that you still have to work hard. Although sometimes the effort does not necessarily lead to success, at least the heart does not panic.
Du Yueming knocked on the door of Fang Delin's room next door, but no one responded.
It's still in the library. I have to say that Fang Delin is much harder than Du Yueming, and he has always had the habit of going to the library since he entered the school. But this is actually related to interest, Fang Delin loves machinery, and he can't wait to drill into it all day long, so hard work is in the eyes of others, and he only feels enjoyment.
knocked two more times, and after making sure that there was no one, Du Yueming gave up.
He knocked on the door at this time to ask Shang Delin to go out with him, and to buy some secret medicine for actual combat drills.
As for why he only plans to go out now, it is purely this guy who remembers.
Looks like I'm going to have to go alone. Well, the three goals, first easy and then difficult, have been achieved by living well, then the rest starts with spending money. Buying some expensive consumables seems to be another idea to spend money.
Du Yueming opened the window and skillfully climbed out. Under the bright moon, the boy moved nimbly between the rooftops and the streets, with a bit of Assassin's Creed instant sense, and he jumped from one acacia tree to another, directly over the towering walls of the academy. Du Yueming, who landed gently, entered the classic car that was parked under the acacia tree forever and walked away.
The distance between the two tall acacia trees was six or seven meters, and Du Yueming leaped easily. With the improvement of his fighting spirit, his physical strength has also strengthened, and now he has made a lot of progress in physical functions.
In fact, this bit of the courtyard wall of the academy can't stop these little girls and boys who have cultivated fighting spirit or magic at all, and they are almost used to turn them over. As the saying goes, the gentleman is not the villain, yes.
In fact, there is also a saying, that is, if you are cultivating and studying at the Fabilon Academy, if you can't even climb over the wall, then you must be an inferior student among inferior students. Therefore, unlike the earth where Du Yueming was before, in this era, the walls of the academy are also a standard for testing the strength of students.
