Chapter 004: The Road
As soon as it was dawn, Favian was awakened by the sound of neat drills coming from outside the window.
It was Favian's first night in the wizarding world, and it was rare that there was no chip reminder set.
"Young master, you wake up, breakfast will be delivered later. Fia opened the door and walked in with a basin of hot water.
Under Fia's service, Favian is still wearing a pure white swordsman suit, after washing, Favi stands quietly in front of the window and doesn't know what he is thinking, on the training ground, Adrion is taking the children to learn basic swordsmanship, Adrien will use the knight's sword in his hand from time to time to slap the young man's arms, legs, and waist, to correct the wrong posture, swordsmanship practice is rigorous, if the posture is not right during practice, it will be difficult to improve physical fitness, and the wrong posture has been practiced for a long time, and it will leave dark wounds in the body.
"Stop! It's too badly deformed! Follow along with my demonstration again!" Ardrien walked directly in front of the children, about three or four meters away from the first row.
"Chopping!"
"Slash!"
"Diagonal Split!"
"Flirt!"
。。。。。
After breakfast, Fia was left to tidy up in the bedroom, and Favien led him to the Count's private library alone with the fire in his hand.
Favian stood on the castle stairs for a moment, as if remembering something. This location is located on the corner of the 4th and 5th floors. There is a keyhole at the bottom of the fourth pillar of the staircase handrail, and after the key is inserted, it must be turned three times to the left, then two times to the right, and finally to the left to the end, until it cannot be turned.
When the key didn't move, the whole staircase seemed to shake.
At the corner of the fourth and fifth floors, a dark passage appeared.
Favian quickly pulled out the key and entered the passage, the dark passage seemed to be an unknown man-eating beast, which made people exude fear from the bottom of their hearts.
Turn on the fire and light the oil lamp on the wall, only to find that it is a stone staircase spiraling downward. Looking at the exit behind him, which had been closed at some point, Favian couldn't help but tighten his sleeves.
I kept lighting the oil lamp on the wall, and after walking about four or five times, I came to the end of the stairs. In front of Favian was a wooden door covered in iron.
Instead of opening the iron door directly, Favian pulled out a movable stone brick on the right side of the staircase and pulled out a golden key from inside, which is the real key to the iron door! If the key inserted into the iron door is wrong, then the dense holes in the walls on both sides will teach you how to become a qualified ghost in minutes.
The first thing Favier did after entering the iron door was to light all the oil lamps on the walls of the room, making the room look like daylight.
Looking at the piles of rare jewelry, Favian was slightly shocked. But his purpose was not this, but a lonely bookshelf next to it, there were not many books on the shelf, about seventeen or eighteen, but they were stored in two different compartments, only five in the left compartment, and about eleven or two in the right compartment.
This is the foundation of the Bourbon family, the knight's breathing method and swordsmanship secrets.
Pull out a book from the left compartment, which is a knight's breathing method.
"Chip, build a separate database, and start recording the breathing method of riding!" Favion began to flip through the book.
"Ding! The database is complete!"
"Ding! Knight No. 1's breathing method has been recorded!"
"Ding! Knight No. 2's breathing method has been recorded!"
。。。。。。
"Ding! Knight Five's breathing method has been recorded!"
"Ding! Do you fuse the No. 1, No. 2, and No. 5 knights' breathing methods to deduce the most suitable breathing method for the subject!" Just as Favian reached into the right book compartment, the chip's prompt made him look confused.
"Establish a task, why does the chip have the function of fusion creation!" Favian was a little uneasy, the chip that had been used for nearly thirty years suddenly had a new function, although it was a good thing, but I also wanted to know what caused it.
"Ding! mission is not established!"
All right... Either way, it's a good thing.
"Chip, call up the details of the No. 1, No. 2, and No. 5 Knights' Breathing Method!"
After taking a closer look, Favian found that these three knight breathing methods were all fire attributes, and the first breathing method belonged to the Great Knight Breathing Method to be precise.
"Start deducing!"
"Ding! The mission has been successfully established! The estimated completion time is five hours and twenty-three minutes!"
'The knight's breathing method can be deduced, and the swordsmanship must also be able to!' Favian looked at the swordsmanship cheats that had not yet been recorded, and was excited.
Taking a deep breath, Favian began to continue recording the swordsmanship cheats.
"Chip, set up a separate database, and start recording swordsmanship cheats!"
"Ding! The database is complete!"
。。。。。
"Ding! The No. 11 Sword Technique Cheats have been recorded!"
The mechanical voice of a chip kept ringing in my head. Cold, emotionless. Favian, on the other hand, thinks it's the most beautiful sound in the world.
"Ding! whether to fuse basic swordsmanship, number one, number two... No. 11 swordsmanship deduction is the most suitable swordsmanship for the main body!"
"Yes! and put the basic swordsmanship into the swordsmanship database!"
"Ding! Classification successful! Mission establishment successful! Estimated completion time: 4 hours and 55 minutes!"
。。。。。。
"What happened to the young master, why are you so happy?" Favian twitched the corners of his mouth, from the library to Keane's butler's study, he couldn't remember how many times he had heard such a discussion.
Rubbing his slightly stiffened cheeks, he knocked lightly on Keane's butler's door.
"Please come in, young master!" the old butler was sitting at the desk writing, there was a row of books on the left side of the desk, and on the right side was the old housekeeper's favorite flower tea.
"Good day! Favian respectfully performed aristocratic courtesy to the old butler.
"Good day, young master, please sit down, I don't know if you have something to do with me!" the old butler put down the pen in his hand and looked at Favian with a smile.
"Grandpa Keane, I want to be a wizard!" Favian stared at the old butler intently, as if a blazing flame was burning in his eyes, but the tension in his heart was betrayed by the sweat of his palms.
Isn't a knight powerful? Powerful, very powerful! But the limit of a knight is a great knight! This is the inside story that all nobles know! But wizards are different, they are only third-class wizard apprentices, and they surpass the great knights in terms of strength and status! From here, it can be seen that the path of wizards is a broad road!
"Young Master, I can't help it! It's not that you can become a wizard apprentice with a basic meditation method, there are only two ways to become a wizard apprentice. Keane took a sip of the tea on the desk and continued.
"The first way is wizard initiation, and you must be officially at the wizard level to carry out the initiation ritual for you!"
"The second way is to rely on the crystal for enlightenment, the enlightenment crystal is a precious product of alchemy, and the crystal is engraved with the enlightenment circle!"
"Young master, it's a coincidence that I became a wizard, when I was young, I accidentally entered the ruins of an official wizard, when the seven friends entered together, I was the only one who survived, and I only got three things from the ruins, no attribute basic meditation method, enlightenment crystal ball and a level 0 spell book, a wizard like me belongs to a wandering wizard in the wizarding world!" The old butler leaned back in his chair, his expression cloudy and gloomy, perhaps thinking of the scene of his partner's death when he was young, with a rare sad expression on his face.
"Where else can I find the Enlightenment Crystal, or where else can I find an official wizard?!" Favian asked, a little disappointed, but still unrelenting.
"Young master, enlightenment crystals are quite rare on this continent, I am over seventy years old, except for the one I used, I have not heard of any enlightenment crystals anywhere, maybe there may still exist in some wizard ruins in rare areas. The old butler's face was full of joy, and his cloudy eyes revealed a hint of pride, after all, six out of seven people died, and only the old butler became the biggest profiteer, which is less than five percent of the probability!
"Alas!" Favian sighed, obviously there was an endless road in front of him to climb, but he could only watch the road being blocked by the old butler step by step, and in the end, the only choice was the knight, an alley that could see the end with his eyes closed. It can be imagined how disappointed Favian is at this moment, not to mention the flames in his eyes, and even the luster is much less than usual.
"As for the official wizard ... Over the years, I've also gathered some information about official wizards, and every five years wizards across the sea will pass through the fog and descend to the city of Bazel on the east coast, and you can get a boarding ticket with a token!" the old butler picked up the teapot and filled the empty teacup with tea as he continued.
"There are less than two years left before the next five-year period! Once you go to another continent, you won't be able to come back until five years at the earliest! I have collected one of the tokens, I just hope you will think about it carefully, and you will also have to discuss it with Lord Earl! After making your choice, don't regret it!" The old butler's cloudy eyes had long since disappeared, and all that was left was sharpness, as if it had penetrated Favian's heart directly!
Favian smiled bitterly excitedly, excited because the wizard's path was bright, and bitterly smiled because the old butler had a bad taste, first beating you into the bottomless abyss, and then giving you a rope to climb out. But even so, Favien is still deeply grateful to the old butler!
"Grandpa Keane, don't worry, I'll think it through! Can I trouble you with one more thing?" Looking at the smile on the corner of the old butler's mouth, Favian wanted to pick up the teapot in front of him and smash it!
"Say it. The old butler straightened up. To maintain the demeanor of an elder, the old butler thought to himself.
"I need some herbs, fruits, plants, no quantity requirements, just want as many varieties as possible. Favi thought for a moment and then said what he wanted.
"No problem, I'll arrange for someone to collect it today, and I'll send it to you tomorrow. The old butler said lightly.
It's not a big deal, although I don't know what the young master wants these for, as long as he doesn't cause trouble.
"By the way, Grandpa Keane, why did you take it back then... ”
。。。。。。
After coming out of the old butler's study, Favian stretched comfortably. Recalling that after being exposed, the old housekeeper of the road looked a little angry, and Favian couldn't help but smile.
The weather is nice today.
