From the port city of Naurez in the Redpyle region to the temple of knowledge in the southern part of Sveau Bay, the Caravan travels normally in good weather and takes only about a month.

However, in reality, it is common to encounter situations of one kind or another, where caravans have to buy and sell in every town where they land, and the weather is not as sunny as ever...... Therefore, by the time Wei Zede, who had followed the caravan, arrived at the intersection of the 'Coastal Road' and the 'Lion's Road', nearly two months had passed.

“…… Have a great trip! ”

"Goodbye!"

After saying goodbye to the caravan's steward, he turned his horse and embarked on the relatively narrow 'Lion Road'.

Endless stretches of low hills, gravel paths, sparse trees...... This is the scenery that Wei Zede saw on a tall horse.

"Now that I have these two books, I can study in the great library of Candle Castle!"

Weathered by the long journey, Wei Zede took out two hardcover books of varying thickness, "Secrets of the Crown War" and "Ike's Book", from his backpack on the back of his horse, which he had purchased from a down-and-out middle-aged scholar for more than 3,000 gold coins while trading on a caravan.

Driven by his penchant for reading, Weizel spent the second half of his journey perusing these two books, written in a 'lingua franca' that he could understand.

The content recorded in the "Secrets of the Crown War" is about the beginning and end of the five large-scale wars between the elven races, focusing on the contradictions and conflicts between the gods in the elven god system, detailing the banishment and depravity of the elven goddess Rose, and systematically describing the migration of Elisri, that is, the drow elves, to the dark regions.

The Broken Chapters of Seinkno is the Codex of the spellcaster. Of course, what Weizel got was not the original, but a manuscript, but it was also a 'lone book'. The contents are notes on the various spells and alchemical potions of the caster Seenkno, such as the materials and methods for making 'Golden Mead', the spell for 'summoning otherworldly creatures', and so on.

Although he didn't see it very thoroughly, Wei Zede still used his superhuman memory ability to memorize it silently.

Just as Weizel was recalling the contents of the book, two bowstring vibratings sounded at the top of the hill in front of him.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

The attacker's concealment ability is very strong, and Wei Zede, who has a high perception attribute, did not lock on to the enemy's position until the moment the arrow was fired.

Without the slightest hesitation, Weizel planted straight to the right of the horse.

Touching the ground with one hand, rolling on his side, drawing his sword, and taking a defensive stance, Wei Zede's set of actions was like a smooth flow, not only avoiding the sudden attack, but also preparing for the enemy.

"Whoosh!"

Perhaps to prevent Weizel from escaping, the second wave of arrows targeted the horse beneath him, and the powerful crossbow shot directly through the traveling horse's eyes.

With a neighing of a dying horse, the three murderers who had ambushed Weizede rushed from the top of the low hills on their horses.

Facing an experienced and vicious enemy, Wei Zede, who was holding the 'Sword of Justice', took a deep breath, his ink-colored eyes narrowed slightly, and bursts of bloody killing aura diffused.

Seeing that the three murderers on horseback were getting closer and closer to him, Wei Zede's spirit was concentrated like never before, and when the enemy raised the scimitar in his hand and was about to slash out, he seemed to dodge two steps awkwardly, just avoiding the impact of the war horse.

A scimitar slashed head-on, Wei Zede's pupils shrank, and he fell sideways while pulling the long sword in his hand upward.

The cold light flashed, leaving a deep knife wound on Wei Zede's left shoulder, and the enemy, a fountain of blood, spurted out of his shoulder, and an arm with a small half of his chest flew into the air.

The screams of men and the wails of war horses sounded almost simultaneously, and one man and one horse were entangled and rolled, leaving a long trail of blood on the narrow gravel path.

"Damn it!"

Due to the angle of Weized's dodge, the other two enemies had no chance to attack at all, and they let out a curse in unison.

Rolling on the ground, Weizel leaped to his feet, as if he were unaware of his wounds, regaining his footing and guarding against enemy attacks.

"Kill! Kill him! ”

The two stout men on their horses, roaring in hoarse voices, turned their horses and rushed at them again.

"Hey! It's better to be in time than to be in luck! I just took the opportunity of this fight to perfect 'that skill' in the final step......"

It is said that the great terror between life and death can completely stimulate people's potential, and Wei Zede, who does not want to rely on skill all the time, plans to try it with his life here.

As the enemy approached again, Wei Zede's pupils gradually became dull, and when the target entered the attack range, he slashed the 'Sword of Justice' in his hand horizontally and vertically......

"Combat Skill - Cross Slash!"

A thin 'silver cross' appeared out of thin air.

"Not good! This guy is actually a 'secret swordsman'!! ”

In the high-speed charge of the war horse, the hearts of the two murderers were full of shock and disbelief, at this moment, they only had time to put the scimitar in their hands across their chests, trying to resist this combat skill, but in the next second, a sharp pain came from the chest and abdomen.

Before losing consciousness, the two murderers only felt that they were as light as swallows and rose into the air......

Cut in half!

To outsiders, this scene looks extremely cruel!

"Hoo ......"

Wei Zede's face was expressionless, and he stood with his sword drawn, but he exhaled a long, fiery turbid breath from his mouth.

"Sure enough!" The use of skill value in various skills is just a 'trick' of the system, and we gamers can completely master the skills through our own cultivation......"

This is the harvest of Wei Zede's long-term efforts, and he can finally use his ability to send out the skill [Cross Slash]!

Standing quietly, Wei Zede took a moment to calm down the blood in his body, and then took a look at the surrounding environment and cleaned up the battlefield.

After that, things were simpler, the soft ground under the hills was perfect for digging pits and burying corpses, and dead horses were hastily buried here.

After placing his bags and some of the equipment he had harvested on the back of a recovered horse, Wei Zede rode another recovered horse and pulled it back on the road, the crisp sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the gravel echoed rhythmically on the narrow 'Lion Road'.
