Chapter 55: The Limit
Time is slowly passing.
A month later, the long procession was slowly making its way down the road in the wilderness.
"After walking through this mountain, in a few days, you will be able to get out of the Northlands. ”
On the sidelines, Flal's voice rang out, with a hint of exhaustion.
Listening to the voice, Adil turned to look behind him.
Behind him, the long procession was still slowly advancing, and at this time there were many more people than a little more than a month ago, reaching the scale of one or two thousand people.
This is the sum of more than a dozen nobles, including not only the guards and soldiers brought by these nobles, but also the clansmen and relatives of these nobles, all of whom are slowly moving forward with the procession at this time.
At the end of the procession, wagons slowly advanced, loaded with food and other supplies, guarded by some soldiers, as they moved along with the large army.
These idle people and superfluous things seriously affected the speed of the entire team, making the journey that could have been completed in ten days take more than a month.
But now, the most dangerous journey has been completed, and it is possible to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Let's rest on the spot!"
At the front of the line, Adirzema looked at the scene in the distance, looked up at the sky, and ordered the team behind him.
Behind them, the warriors who maintained order began to slowly stop, stopping in some shady place that could be found.
It's October, and the hottest days are supposed to be over, but the weather in the Northland is still the same, like a big furnace, spreading the blazing sun.
They found a long stretch of wood, and after a little reconnaissance and treatment, they chose to stop here.
The warriors on the side moved the carriage to the appropriate position with their hands and feet, and an entourage began to light a fire in place and prepare for the meal.
"When we get here, we will be able to go to the cities of the southern countries in a month at most. ”
Underneath a red-leaved tree, Flal stood aside and said to Adil on the side.
"What are we going to do when we get there?" asked Adiel, standing still.
"Go find our stronghold there. Looking around, Flal smiled a little relaxedly: "In the past, we had to organize several large-scale caravans to go south several times a year to trade in the southern countries, and after a long time, we set up many strongholds in the south to facilitate the annual trade. ”
"Although these strongholds are only used for business, they have also had a certain scale in the past few decades, and they are small chambers of commerce, so it is not a problem to accommodate us people. ”
He looked at Adil and smiled, and then pointed to the many nobles around him: "Not only us, but these nobles who have lost their territory also have a certain strength in the south, although they are not as strong as us, but there should be no problem in maintaining their own lives." ”
"It really can't be maintained, with the mutual help of our people, sooner or later we will be able to take root in the south, so that the family will not be completely defeated. ”
Hearing this, Adil nodded in agreement, and then asked, "What kind of place is the south?"
"It was a bustling place. "The southern states, though they are called nations, are in fact an alliance. There were both powerful kingdoms and small states with only a few city-states, all nominally part of the alliance. ”
"Compared to the north, it is much more prosperous, and it is a place with a lot of business atmosphere. ”
He looked at Adil and spoke slowly to him.
Listening to this, Adil on the side nodded.
He had read many accounts of the South, and it was much the same as that of Flal.
The time for the meal came quickly.
In the distance, a girl walked slowly towards Adil, holding a bowl of soup in her hand.
The girl was wearing a white dress, which seemed to be well-groomed, and her hair was well combed, giving it a comfortable look.
"Lord Adiel, are you hungry?"
She walked up to Adil and looked at him and whispered, a gentle smile on her beautiful face.
"Thank you. Adil took the bowl of soup, thanked the other party, and then sat quietly on the side, without saying anything more.
Seeing that Adil didn't have the slightest intention of leaving her, the girl's face stiffened, and after standing in place for a long time, she slowly turned around and walked in the direction she came.
Looking at the figure of the other party leaving, as well as the slow pace when he came, Adil shook his head slightly, a little helpless.
This scene in front of me has become the norm during this time.
During this period, there was no sense of security in everyone's hearts, especially those nobles who had lost their territory, and the future was even more sad.
Those aristocrats are okay, with the accumulation of the past, although it is impossible to maintain the luxurious life of the past, at least life is not a problem.
The real difficulty is that those noble clansmen and even the children who are not close to each other may have problems in their future lives.
In this case, Adil naturally became a sweetheart.
In the past month or so, the power of his great knight has been fully revealed, and he has immediately become hot among the surrounding nobles.
A great knight, even before the fall of the Northland, was a very high-status figure, no matter which kingdom he went to, at least one real baron's domain was indispensable, even in normal times for most nobles to marry an excellent partner, let alone now.
"Tested and no harmful substances!" the voice of the chip machine sounded in his head.
Under a big tree, looking at the steaming broth in his hand, Adil cautiously tested it with a chip before using it slowly.
He ate quickly, and after a while, he put aside the empty bowl in his hand, then raised his sword and walked out into the distance.
As the distance slowly faded away, he walked to a quiet flat ground before he pulled out his sword and swung it in place.
A set of knightly breathing techniques was soon over.
At the end of the game, feeling that there was almost no change in his body, Adil was a little helpless: "This level of training seems to be really useless." ”
With his current physical fitness, even the improved knight's breathing method could not be used to exercise, and even if he trained for a long time, it would be difficult to improve his physical fitness.
This is also a limitation of the knights.
According to Adiel's understanding, after reaching the Great Knight, the knight's path has come to an end, and there is no further transformation.
Thinking of this, Adil looked at his physical fitness.
"Name: Adil Fakus. Power: 9.6. Dexterity: 9.5. Constitution: 9.8. ”
"Toot! The subject's body data is approaching the limit of life!"
In his head, the voice of the chip machine continued to sound, there to remind him.
"Has it come to this point?"
Feeling the prompt sound of the chip in his head, Adil was a little helpless.
His data at this time has reached a terrifying level. No matter how much an ordinary knight exercises, it is impossible to reach this level.
But at this point, Adiel's physical fitness is also about to reach the current limit.
Due to the limitations of the body structure and the nature of life, there is a limit to the growth of the individual's own strength, just like an ordinary human being, even if he has trained his whole body into muscles, it is impossible to compare his strength with that of an elephant.
And the training of the knight's breathing method is actually a change in the nature of life.
When an ordinary person is promoted to a knight, under the stimulation of life energy and accumulated training, the body structure in his body will slowly change, become more perfect and optimized, and improve his body structure and life essence.
Strictly speaking, a knight is a more perfect individual, although it has not completely departed from the scope of human beings, but its life level is already different from that of ordinary people, so the limit of its strength is also stronger.
The Great Knight is in a similar situation, transforming again on the basis of the Knight, the life level will become more powerful, and the limit of power will be exaggerated again.
Human beings belong to a kind of creature with relatively balanced attributes in all aspects, according to the chip analysis in Adiel's mind, the life limit of the knight is probably above all attributes 5, and the life limit of the big knight is about 10 in all attributes.
Standing in place, all kinds of thoughts kept running through my mind.
Adil pondered for a moment, then pulled out a crystal from his waist pocket.
It was a red crystal nucleus, the size of a few grains of sand left due to overconsumption, and it looked like it was about to be consumed.
Holding this promoted red crystal nucleus in his hand, a warm current slowly flowed from the palm of his hand and spread to his whole body.
Feeling this warm current, standing in place, Adil shook his head in disappointment.
If you want to break through the limit of life, you can only improve your life level again.
Of the few possibilities available at the moment, the knight's path has been blocked, and there is no possibility of continuing upward.
Then the only remaining possibility is this crystal nucleus containing unknown power.
According to the detection and comparative analysis of the chip, this crystal nucleus contains a very powerful energy, which can allow life to slowly improve from the life level, and if the number is large enough, it is also possible to transform life again.
It's a pity that after such a long period of consumption, the crystal nuclei obtained in that apocalyptic world before are almost exhausted, and the only thing left is to make him transform, it would be good to be able to make him reach the limit of his life.
With the movement of his mind, a little starlight slowly appeared in Adiel's mind.
This is the coordinates of the apocalyptic world, which seems very bleak at this time, and it is obvious that the accumulated strength is not enough.
Adil tried to make contact with his mind, but in the end he couldn't open the door, only to send some instinctive messages back to tell him the time it would take.
"It seems that this is the only possibility left so far. ”
In the end, he picked up a black talisman from his bosom with some helplessness and muttered to himself.
The amulet is square and round, looking ancient and old, as if it has gone through a long time, and there are stripes of textured veins on it.
It's a wizard's thing, representing another powerful system in the world, and it's the only thing Adil has left now.
