Chapter 4: The Knights of the Kingdom

Xu Mu looked at Ai Lu who fainted on the ground, he unceremoniously picked up the water bag and splashed water on Ai Lu's face.

After a while, Ai Lu woke up again, her face was still pale, she woke up again and seemed to be a little confused, she sat on the ground and looked at Xu Mu blankly for a while before she spoke: "You... Who is it?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. Xu Mu said indifferently, "I heard that you are wanted, and it is worth fifty gold coins." ”

Ai Lu's pupils widened, and he quickly shook his head and denied: "No... I didn't. ”

Xu Mu snorted secretly, took out the wanted warrant found from the corpse of the boss of the black shop, compared the image on the wanted warrant with Ai Lu himself, and sneered and said, "Miss Ai Lu..."

Ai Lu's face deteriorated, and then she remembered something, and quickly looked around, and found that the eldest of the two brothers was too dead to die, and the second was completely gone. However, she didn't let go of her heart, her eyes looked at Xu Mu directly, and her body tried to move a few times and found that her strength had not fully recovered.

Xu Mu seemed to see through Ai Lu's heart, and said slowly: "Miss Ai Lu, it's better to be careful." ”

Ai Lu gritted his teeth: "You... What the hell do you want to do?"

Xu Mu looked at Ai Lu's whole body, his eyes made Ai Lu feel uncomfortable and uneasy, and he raised the hand that was injured by Ai Lu: "Look, my hand was injured by you just now, and you still ask me what I want to do?"

Ai Lu then remembered that she had indeed hurt Xu Mu, but at that time she was just subconsciously protecting herself, and she didn't really want to hurt Xu Mu, she apologized: "I didn't mean to, if you need me to apologize to you, I can say sorry to you." ”

Xu Mu sneered: "It turns out that you nobles will apologize to commoners like me?"

Ai Lu stubbornly raised his head and looked directly at Xu Mu with his eyes: "Are you mocking me, you should know that I am no longer a nobleman." ”

Xu Mu didn't answer, just stretched out his hand towards Ai Lu.

Seeing this, Ai Lu thought that Xu Mu wanted to pull her up, her face was slightly red, but she still put her hand on Xu Mu's hand.

Starting with Rouyi, Xu Mu was stunned, and hurriedly shook off Ai Lu's hand: "Stupid, I'm asking you for money! I'm hurt by you, it's not too much to give some medicine, right?"

Seeing her mistake, Ai Lu was a little annoyed, but she still endured it, and she said weakly: "I don't have any money..."

"It's okay, I don't mind, give it more or less. ”

Seeing Xu Mu talking about money, Ai Lu's indifferent eyes seemed to glow, she shuddered and closed the robe on her body, took a small bag from her waist and handed it to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu took a look and saw that there were only 13 copper coins, which made him stunned.

One hundred copper coins equals one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins equals one gold coin.

Although Ailu is a declining nobleman, he is not so poor, is he? 13 copper coins... It costs 5 copper coins to open a room and sleep in the town.

Seeing Xu Mu's surprise, Ai Lu said embarrassedly: "I really only have these, if you really want money, I can give you my needle sapphire and sell it... But you get some points for the money you sell. ”

Xu Mu didn't speak, he pinched the bag in his hand and thought about something, the atmosphere began to quiet down, and Ai Lu was a little uneasy.

"It's not just the money for medicine, have you forgotten?" Xu Mu said lightly.

"Huh?"

Xu Mu looked at the ashes next to him and the corpse of the boss, and said, "Don't forget, I saved you." ”

Ai Lu couldn't help but feel distressed, of course she knew about it, of course the two brothers who wanted to arrest her would not die for no reason, but she didn't know how Xu Mu wanted to treat her, and she didn't dare to reciprocate...

"But... The only thing I have is that gem. ”

Xu Mu shook his head: "I don't want money." As he spoke, he took out a few silver coins from his waist and put them in the small bag in his hand.

Seeing Xu Mu's movements, Ai Lu wondered: "What are you?"

"I can treat what you hurt me as if it didn't happen, and I don't want you to pay me for saving your life, but I have a request. Xu Mu stuffed the small bag back into Ai Lu's hand.

Ailu pondered for a while: "Say it." ”

"Can you teach me magic?"

Ai Lu was stunned by these words, and she hurriedly shook her head: "How can this work!"

Xu Mu frowned: "Why not?"

"Only nobles and royalty can practice magic, you are just a commoner...", Ailu stopped at this point, and then said: "You must know that people who are not nobles and royals practice magic, and it is a great crime to cut off your head." ”

"Then you're not a nobleman now, so how can you use magic?"

Ai Lu shook his head: "This is different, although I am not a nobleman now, but the declining nobles also have the right to use magic, which was originally given to us by the king, and no one can take it away..."

"Isn't that also the king's order to raid the house? Xu Mu said without hesitation.

Ai Lu was suddenly dumbfounded, lowered his head and did not speak again.

Xu Mu didn't mean to apologize, he continued: "Since you are not a nobleman anymore, and now you are also wanted by the kingdom, what are you afraid of doing with these things?

Ai Lu raised her head and looked directly into Xu Mu's indifferent eyes again, she couldn't understand the man in front of her, why was this person so persistent in learning magic?

"Even if I can teach you, but this thing is not so simple, first of all, everyone's body has a different fit for various types of magic, if there is no magic identification, then how can you know what magic you can practice?" Ai Lu sighed and began to explain to Xu Mu: "Like I have a great fit for fire magic, that's why I only major in fire magic, if I really want to teach you, I can only teach you fire magic... But you don't necessarily be able to practice fire magic, you know?"

"I can practice fire magic. Xu Mu said lightly, "But I don't know much about the magic identification stone, Miss Ai Lu please tell me, how to judge the compatibility of my seven magic systems from the phenomenon of the magic identification stone?"

Ai Lu was surprised: "You have already identified the magic power?"

Xu Mu nodded.

Ai Lu gasped when he saw this, how can there be a magic academy in this remote place, since he said that he had identified his magic power, he must have used a disposable magic identification stone, but this identification stone is expensive!

"I used to use the one-time identification stone at the Academy of Magic, but the standard should be the same. For example, if you see a fiery red color when you identify magic, it means that you can practice fire magic. There are seven types of magic, and there are seven corresponding colors, water corresponds to blue, fire corresponds to red, light corresponds to white, and darkness corresponds to black......"

Xu Mu interrupted Ai Lu's words impatiently, Ai Lu's explanation completely confirmed his inner guess, he had just inadvertently activated the magic identification stone, the identification stone was colorful, and it was exactly seven colors.

Can you learn all the magic yourself?

"Since I can also practice fire-based magic, can you teach me?"

But the answer was different from what Xu Mu thought, Ai Lu still shook his head.

Seeing this, Xu Mu felt that Ai Lu was making fun of herself, could it be that this woman wanted to maintain her last dignity as a declining nobleman for the sake of the so-called kingdom regulations, and was stubbornly unwilling to teach herself magic?

"It's not that simple to practice magic..."Ai Lu stuffed the small bag in her hand back into her waist, sat on the ground for a long time, and finally returned her strength, she stood up: "Magic identification is only the first step, and then it is necessary to perform the awakening ritual. ”

"Awakening ritual?"

"Yes. "Only after the body awakens, can you maximize the perception of magic, and then communicate with the magic seal." ”

Xu Mu then asked, "Is the Awakening Ritual the same as the Magic Identification Stone, what kind of Awakening Stone is there?"

Ai Lu looked at Xu Mu dumbfounded: "You really don't understand anything... There is indeed an Awakening Stone, but the Awakening Stone is not a one-time one, and each Awakening Stone is extremely huge, and the current Awakening Stone is in the hands of various royal families and academies, so I said that you want to practice magic... It's unlikely. ”

You must know that the matter of practicing magic was decided by Xu Mu just now, at first he didn't know that he had this condition, but now he knows that his body is so compatible with the seven-system magic, it is really a waste not to learn magic.

But now I heard Ai Lu say this, if you want to practice magic, you must first identify, and then you must awaken, and it is easy to say that you have already identified, but the awakening stone is only available in the royal family and the academy.

In other words, the only people who could go to the capital to meet the royal family were nobles, and only the nobles could go to the academy to study.

This social status class...

Xu Mu secretly scolded this street world, when will the light of a harmonious society and Marxist-Leninist thought be sprinkled on this land.

Ai Lu saw that Xu Mu was a little lost, so she had to comfort: "If you really want to practice magic, I think it's better to find a way to get the king's noble reward..."

Xu Mu turned the loss on his face, and asked seriously and firmly: "What is the fastest and most direct way to obtain the status of nobility?"

Ai Lu was frightened by Xu Mu's state, and said in a daze: "The most direct way is to join the king's army, and then participate in the battle to obtain military merits..."

Xu Mu looked at Ai Lu's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he knew what Ai Lu wanted to say, joining the army to get combat merits is of course the fastest way, but it is also the fastest way to die. But he just thought about it, no matter what, he had to find a way to become a nobleman and learn magic, otherwise his qualification would be too wasteful!

Xu Mu suddenly thought that if he tried to contact the people of the royal family, and then confessed that he could practice seven-system magic, I don't know if this could be exchanged for a noble status...

Xu Mu still has some understanding of various types of magic, everyone in this world will more or less have a fit with each system of magic, but people will basically only have a fit with individual systems of magic at first, and other systems of magic can only slowly comprehend and awaken the day after tomorrow, so that they can practice other systems of magic.

And most importantly, people who can basically practice fire magic can't practice water magic, and in the same way, people who can practice light magic can't practice dark magic.

Therefore, at the end of this life, it is already remarkable to be able to master three of them.

However, Xu Mu had just identified that he could use seven-system magic, which really shocked him, if he really didn't practice magic, it would be a waste of his outstanding qualifications...

"If it's just for the sake of practicing magic, it's not like there's no other way..."

Suddenly, Ai Lu spoke, Xu Mu was a little surprised when he heard it, and hurriedly looked up at Ai Lu: "You say." ”

"It's almost the same as joining the army, but it's just joining the Kingdom Knights. ”

"Kingdom Knights?"

"That's right. Ai Lu didn't know if it was good or bad to tell Xu Mu about this, "The Kingdom Knights are a team that specializes in loyalty to the royal family, and the conditions for the inclusion of knights are much more relaxed, and it doesn't have to be a nobleman to be a knight." ”
