"Where are we going next?" Alice asked, looking at Gaudos who was packing.

"Turin."

"Turin? The legendary 'City of Knights'? ”

"City of Knights?" Gao Duos shook his head and said, "It is true that Turin once gave birth to a great knight, and there was also a branch of the [Knights Hospitaller] there, but even so, it is far from worthy of the reputation of 'City of Knights'. ”

"That's it..."Alice couldn't help but feel a little lost, and said to herself: "Dawes, this stinky boy, went to Turin, and bragged when he came back..."

"But Turin, the capital of Savoy, is a great city."

As if she suddenly remembered something, Alice asked in surprise, "Where is the branch of the Knights Hospitaller?" What is the Knights Hospitaller? Isn't it amazing? ”

"The Knights Hospitaller... In short, this is an organization of doctors, and the first creed of the Order is to save the dead, and every member of the knights in it is a skilled doctor and a powerful knight. ”

"Is that so?" Alice's eyes suddenly brightened, and she asked, "Are there any requirements if you want to join the Knights Hospitaller?" ”

"How?" Gaudos was a little surprised, "You want to join that organization?" ”

Alice nodded.

"Hmm... The Dawn Hospital organizes an annual exam to test your healing, riding and combat skills, as well as your sensitivity to the powers of light, which is also important, although if you are also good at other aspects, even if you are not sensitive to the powers of light, it is not a big problem. I think you may have mastered some riding skills, but if you want to pass the other disciplines, I am afraid it will not be an easy task. ”

"Doctor's words... Actually, when I was very young, I used to run to Uncle Rose's house to help him. He was a retired military doctor, and he always praised me for being smart and suitable to be a doctor. ”

"Rose... Oh, I remember him, he was indeed a respected doctor... However, the scope of the medical examination of Liming Hospital is not only limited to practical operation, but also includes theoretical knowledge. ”

"Huh? The theoretical part... Is it hard to learn? ”

"Learning is inherently painful, and medical theory is also very difficult."

"Well, though, even if that's the case, I'm going to give it a try."

In fact, the reason why Gaudus said so much was to persuade Alice to dispel this idea, after all, if you want to become a knight, especially a hospitalityman, sweat, labor... It's too much to give, and it's too difficult for such a weak girl.

But looking at Alice, whose eyes were firm and high-spirited, Gaudus couldn't say anything when the words came to his lips. The girl's dreams are ambitious, but they are not without hope. What you should do is encouragement, not cold water, right?

Gaudus was silent for a long time, then took out the tempered cross infantry sword with a homemade scabbard, handed it to Alice, and said, "Give it to you." ”

"Give it to me?" Alice looked at the sword in Gauldos' hand in amazement, her face full of joy and excitement.

But as soon as the sword was in her hands, Alice couldn't help but tremble a little, and she couldn't help frowning. She only has 5 strength, which is the average human level, and the equipment requirement requires the user to have 7 strength. A 2-point difference in strength will cause Alice to swing the sword with extreme difficulty, will not trigger the weapon effect, and the power will be greatly reduced.

"I know this sword is a bit heavy, but since you want to become a Hospitaller, martial arts are essential. It can exercise your swordsmanship, as well as strength... From now on, you're going to be like this every day..."

With that, Gaudos drew his Cross Infantry Sword and made a standard slash!

The crosssword swept past a low branch and was tucked into its scabbard, and the branch fell slightly, the cut smooth.

Of course, this is not because Gaudus is good at swordsmanship, but because the sword itself is sharp enough.

"This is the most basic slashing movement in swordsmanship. After that, you have to do this action every day. 1000 swings in the morning, 1000 in the afternoon, 1000 in the evening... Can it be done? ”

Alice lowered her head and was silent for a moment, then smiled and held the sword and said, "I can do it." ”

…

As a veteran player of Sword and Sorcery, Gaudus is very cautious in allocating free attribute points, after all, as a perfectionist, he wants each of his attribute points to be of maximum use.

And now, he still has 5 attribute points to be assigned, and he has decided to add them all to the [Perception] attribute.

For mages, perception is an extremely important attribute that strengthens the five senses and also strengthens the sensitivity to the energies of each sequence, which is also very helpful for the learning of elemental abilities. Since Ray. Field told Gao Duos that if he wanted to master the ability of [Earth Elemental Lv3], then he should work in this direction.

Of course, until then, the Modified Foundational Meditation was still a priority for Gados.

Five days later, Gaurdos was finally able to see the majestic silhouette of Turin... The capital of Savoy is right at hand.

And in Ray. Under Field's guidance, Gaudus also mastered the [Improved Basic Meditation Lv1] as he wished.

After mastering the [Improved Basic Meditation Lv1], the scattered magical power that spread throughout his body was gathered, and they intertwined with each other like silks, forming a [Magical Vortex] located in the chest cavity.

The magic vortex is like a small dark blue nebula, swirling, turning, and floating silently in the center of the chest. Since it was a conglomeration of all his magic, it allowed him to easily mobilize his magic while chanting his magic, instead of searching for the stubble of magic throughout his body as he had before.

At the same time, due to the operation mechanism of the mana vortex itself, it also speeds up the recovery of mana. Gaudus saw that with the rotation of the whirlpool, not only was it growing at an extremely slow rate, but the magic power that was so small that it was negligible was also sucked into the whirlpool.

It was not the first time that Gao Duos had seen a magic vortex, in fact, he had seen a magic vortex as huge as a galaxy, like a perpetual motion machine that provided an abundant supply of magic for the release of high-level magic, and even some arcane mages used the operation mechanism of the magic vortex itself to create a magic torrent and directly hit the opponent's magic vortex. But that's in the game after all.

And now, Gaudus has his own vortex of magic. Although it is weak, it is so real that it is no longer an ethereal data, but a power that truly belongs to itself.

"Although it was under my guidance, I could speed up the learning progress, but in 5 days... Well, you are indeed a natural mage, and you are more talented than I am. ”

Heard Thunder. Field's frustrated compliment, Gaudus didn't have too many emotional fluctuations, and could even be called very calm. After all, he already has these things.

"Mr. Field, you have a good reputation, there are not a few mages who are more talented than me, but they only seek power, but never investigate its principles, they are simply barbarians in the field of magic. You are different from those people, you are the real expert, the real scholar, the real master. ”

After a brag, Ray. It was as if Field felt that his entire spirit was bathed in sunlight, warm from the inside out. He was a reclusive necromancer, a profession with mixed reputations that led to his little interaction, and the praise of Gaudus hit him to the heart, and he felt like a soulmate.

"You're right, Gaudos, you deserve to be half my disciple. Hehe, those guys who are more talented than me, only know how to learn ready-made magic, and always walk on the path opened up by their predecessors, but they don't know how to invent and create at all, and until they die, they can't surpass the ancients... That's right, they're just a bunch of barbarians! ”

Gaudus could hear the cynicism and nostalgia in his tone, after all, this was the continent of Acacia, and only absolute strength could gain the respect of others. Theory? Knowledge? Hehe, instead of pondering that kind of ethereal thing, it is better to spend a week learning a simple trick to rub a fireball!

Thunder. Field vented in Godos's ear for a long time, and then realized that he had lost his temper. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Now that you've learned to meditate, it's time to advance your learning progress with Barb Flying Teeth... Wait, learning progress... 76%？！ ”

Gao Duos smiled and said, "While you taught me the principle of barbed flying teeth, I also deduced other parts based on the magical knowledge I have acquired, and I believe that it will not be long before I can fully master it." ”

Thunder. Field was stunned for a moment, and then let out a smug laugh in a strange tone: "Haha... I should have understood a long time ago that you are not the same as those barbarians, and you deserve to be my thunder. Field's disciple... Haha, haha, hahaha..."

From enemies, to mutual use, to half a disciple, to a disciple, Gao Duos in Ray. Field's name kept changing. This is enough to show his brazenness, but it also proves that Gados's performance gradually conquered this proud and stubborn old fellow, and truly regarded him as "his own man".

At least, that's what it seems.

Finally, the two arrived in Turin.

As Savoy has been told, Turin is an ancient, historic city with a heavily colored military background and countless generals and staff officers who have come out of it. In particular, it is known that the great paladins were born here... Ferrell? Turin.

As the largest city in the Savoy region, Turin has magnificent and strong walls that can withstand any enemy attack by any means. And under the huge city gate, two rows of sword and shield infantry stood solemnly, guarding the safety of Turin. The strongest walls were matched with the best soldiers, and this was an impenetrable defense line for the capital from the outside.

However, it was such a historic city that Gaudus saw an old knight riding a lame horse that could not be older to be brought to the gates of Turin. He tried to enter the city, but was stopped by the guards.

"Let me in, I'm the noble knight Don Gil? Kod! ”
