Chapter 17: Master of Swordsmanship

Sophie's gaze swept over the four young adventurers, lingered on the thin figure who was still sitting quietly on the ground, and finally stopped at the middle-aged man standing with a sword, the cuttle fish also frowned and stared at the thirty or forty-year-old brown man in front of him, with an ordinary face, looking at the six people present, only he gave himself an invincible feeling, this is not an illusion, you must know that the practitioner's perception of danger and affection has always been very keen, in addition to practicing boxing diligently in the past twelve years, the cuttlefish has not worked hard in spiritual cultivation, Therefore, the intuition is also sharp and point-inducing.

"Excuse me, a few days ago, my sister and I were on a merchant ship that was plundered by pirates, our sister and brother took advantage of the chaos to rob a small boat and escaped luckily, and when I saw a fire here, I looked for it, and I want to ask if there is a harbor city nearby, if you can tell me, there will be a thank you in the future." Sophie first bowed slightly, and then lied without changing her face.

Sophie and Scarlet Fish both have black eyes, with delicate and upright facial features, they really look like sisters and brothers standing there together.

These words made the solemn atmosphere on the field suddenly relaxed.

The brown middle-aged man believed seven or eight points after a little thought, this pair of young men and women are not like the pursuers sent by those people, judging from their appearance, temperament, words and deeds, they are indeed noble children, he put away the knight's sword in his hand, and naturally made a knightly salute to Sophie and the red fish: "The nearest harbor city is Indarro, there are still four islands away from here, and you can reach it by going all the way in the direction of the rising sun, it is a harbor city of the neutral camp, there is no shortage of pirates and evil adventurers, you two may consider going with us." ”

He was not afraid of being seen as a knight by the scarlet fish and Sophie, except for the adventurers (gold diggers) who were attracted by the gold mines and pirate treasures, a small group of knights, warriors, and swordsmen would travel to the islands of the southern seas every year to hone their fighting skills and will.

And the last sentence seems to be a kind invitation to Sophie, the scarlet fish is quite a bit of a use, how can you escape in the case of pirate siege, how can you be an ordinary person, the middle-aged knight estimates that the worst of the two is also the peak of the third order, plus the status of the children of the nobles, with the help of these advantages, their party can avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles when entering the Indaro Harbor, even in the chaotic southern seas, each harbor city will maintain appropriate respect and preferential treatment for the nobles on the surface.

The four young adventurers should have trusted the middle-aged man very much, and when they saw him withdraw the knight's sword, they all put down their weapons and sat down.

Sophie and Scarlet Fish glanced at each other, and felt that the difference in strength between the two sides was not large, so they agreed, just taking the opportunity to learn more about the world of Vaughanze.

The shadows of the crowd were mixed with the blazing bonfire, and the four young men closed their eyes and began to rest after eating the dry food, they had to cherish every second to recover their spiritual bodies, and the thin guy in the cloak was also silent, curled up and hid his whole face in the shadow of the hood, and for a moment there was only the crackling sound of the firewood burning.

The middle-aged knight seemed to want to find out the details of the young noble siblings, so he took the initiative to talk: "The two are nobles from the eastern region. "There are many races of all kinds of skin colors in the Vaunze world, for example, there are more than a dozen red and black skin and other races in the desert, and black is mostly found in the eastern kingdoms of the Great 6, which is not very rare in terms of the experience of middle-aged knights.

"Yes, uncle, you don't look like ordinary adventurers." Sophie replied vaguely, inevitably being seen by the other party, he quickly changed the topic, approached the two of them to realize that something was wrong with this group of people, compared to adventurers, these six people behaved more like they were from the army, after all, that kind of absolute obedience and discipline are the characteristics of soldiers in any world, and they are also easily recognizable.

Instead, Sophie and Scarlet Fish wondered if the group had served in the military before they became adventurers, or if they had been sent by the army to carry out a mission in the Witcher Islands.

"Just call me Jon." The middle-aged knight's rather vicissitudes of life showed a smile on his ordinary face, he looked at Sophie and said: "We are not adventurers, but a mercenary group, I am a knight, I used to serve in the army, and then I took them out of the army for some reasons, and I didn't have a good craft, so I had to join the mercenary association to make a living." ”

There are indeed many soldiers on the Vaunze 6 who retired and left the army because they didn't have a craft, so they could only continue to pick up weapons and join the mercenary group to make a living, Jon deliberately emphasized at the beginning that he and the others were not adventurers and he was also hinting at Sophie and Scarlet, they are not those greedy adventurers who have no lower limit, although the reputation of mercenaries can only be regarded as average, but they are still much better than adventurers.

Jon boasted that there were not many loopholes in this explanation, but he didn't know that the man and woman in front of him were not from Vaunze's world at all, and he didn't know these so-called 'common sense' at all, which was no different from playing the harp to the cow.

"Your swordsmanship is very good, isn't it?" The cuttlefish suddenly asked.

"Sophie, Alicia, my sister and I's names."

Sophie hurriedly added, God knows if there is an Eastern surname in the world of Vaunze, it is better to be careful and take a Western name to deal with it first, as for his own direct use of his own name, it doesn't matter, after all, Sophie's name is derived from a French actress, due to the reason of mixed race, his mother directly used this name in order to save trouble.

"Miss Alicia, I have been with swords since I was eight years old, and I have been practicing swordsmanship for thirty-four years, but I only have a little experience." Jon replied.

This is modesty, and anyone who knows Jon knows that with his knightly swordsmanship, he can be called a master no matter how he says.

"My stupid brother also wants to learn swordsmanship recently, but unfortunately he hasn't found a good teacher, and it's boring to sit here anyway, why don't you teach him some basic swordsmanship." The Cuttlefish said unceremoniously, obviously asking for help, but the tone and demeanor were high, which seemed to be a great honor for Jon to teach his younger brother, and suddenly waved the momentum of the noble lady to the fullest, and it was the true nature of the Cuttlefish Miss.

Of course, the redfish's words were also very measured, and she was keenly aware that Jon seemed to have some intentions for the two of them, plus it was just some dispensable basic swordsmanship, and he was not expected to refuse.

What Sophie lacks now is basic swordsmanship.

Jon was not angry, he had seen a lot of nobles with a worse temper and worse speech than the Scarlet, and it was not a matter of being arrogant, but the black-robed man sitting not far away glanced at the Scarlet Fish and Sophie, and Jon pondered for a while before deciding: "Yes, but as a reward, you will have to pay me ten silver coins a day." ”

With a reason to teach swordsmanship, it was more convenient to drag the two of them into the water, and Jon also rightly showed the mercenary's greed for money, as if he was willing to teach swordsmanship for ten silver coins.

With a snap, a heavy linen money bag landed steadily in front of Jon, and the cold and pleasant proud voice of the scarlet fish also came at the right time: "My brother and I escaped without much money, and here are some gold and silver coins, not enough to ask for me again." ”

Naturally, the money was looted from those pirates.

Jon's gray pupils shrank, not because of the arrogance and contempt of the cuttlefish, but because of the subtle skill that the cuttlefish inadvertently showed when he threw out the money bag, and the terrifying control of power, seeing the slight knowledge, it was enough to get a glimpse of the powerful strength of the noble woman in front of him, he sighed in his heart, and it was two genius young men, but he didn't know if he would be able to jump over that barrier in the future.

The peak of the fourth order and the fifth order seem to be only one step apart, but they are completely two worlds.

It's like the saying that a carp jumps over the dragon gate, and if it jumps over, it is a dragon, and if it can't jump, it is still a carp.

Jon gathered up his feelings, he stood up, took a few steps, picked up a companion's sword, and threw it into Sophie's arms.

Sophie stretched out her hand to take the sword and looked down, the sword body was three fingers wide, about 9ocm long, and weighed about 1.8kg, the shape was similar to the knight sword of the European Middle Ages on the earth, the owner of the sword obviously maintained it very well, and the blade was as sharp as a winter cold pool, which made people feel chills when they saw it.

The scarlet fish hooked his fingertips around the silk hanging down his ears and temples, and quietly handed over a 'I can only help you' look at Sophie with a sideways face, obviously his face was cold and arrogant, but his every move was surprisingly charming and enchanting.

As a master of swordsmanship, Jon just saw at a glance that Sophie had indeed not learned swordsmanship, and the sword holding posture and sword posture were simply rookies among rookies, and the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared, he knew very well that not every nobleman would learn a murderous swordsmanship, but there were many young nobles' children in order to fight the hearts of beauties, and most of them would learn the fancy etiquette swordsmanship that had no lethal power.

"I'll teach you the most basic four sword postures first, and when you really master these four sword postures, I'll teach you the thirty-two sword postures derived from me."

Jon walked to the middle and looked at Sophie with those gray eyes.

After speaking, he pulled out the knight's sword, and practiced it carefully in one style, stabbing, splitting, picking, and pressing, without superfluous action postures, just four sword postures.
