Chapter 25: Coincidence
"Of course, the number one knight here doesn't mean that his strength is unmatched. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Vernon Sr. noticed the deep shock in Augustus' eyes and added, "Albert is the only true knight on the continental stage, a knight whose strength is the source of faith. ”
"Faith?"
"Yes, faith. Adult, you may know that only when the fighting spirit reaches level 5 can you have the qualification to choose to become a knight, or the knight of the bow, or the knight of the sword, or the knight of the gun, but in fact, these three kinds of knights are not real knights, a long time ago, people who cultivate the fighting spirit can only be called swordsmen, and the source of the power of the real knights is their most firm faith, these beliefs can be loyalty, hatred, and the same can be love, as long as the knight strengthens his heart of faith, then his faith will provide him with a steady stream of powerful strength。 ”
Augustus was confused, feeling that the power of faith was far more abstract than magic.
Old Vernon obviously knew this, he thought for a moment, and explained in a calm tone that he had never hurried: "Or you can understand it this way, my lord, the power of faith is the power of the soul, you just need to have a firm belief in your heart, then your soul power will be transformed into the power of faith, and finally provide you with great power." In fact, this is the main reason why the real knight is almost extinct in the mainland, it can be said that the cultivation process of the real knight completely depends on the transformation of his soul power; once on the path of cultivation, the soul power cannot provide the knight with enough faith power, then the knight will collapse due to the depletion of the soul. ”
"This means that soul power is always a consumable, and when it is consumed to a certain extent, the knight's strength can only stay in that realm?"
"No, in fact, as long as the soul power is enough to support the knight to the true coffin stage, then the soul power can repair itself through meditation. ”
Augustus finally roughly understood the cultivation process of the so-called true knight, and he also indirectly knew why the real knight would become extinct on the mainland, thinking about it, only after entering the holy coffin stage, the soul power could repair itself, so how majestic and vast soul power would it take to support a knight to that point?
This should be the reason why Sophia and Bishop Mass were truly shocked by the power of his soul.
I don't know why, Augustus, who should have been excited, couldn't be excited when he knew that he might have great power at this time, because he suddenly thought that his unusually energetic and unusually sharp memory during this period of time made him faintly feel that his soul power should be inseparable from his crossing, what else does this mean?
And the most important thing is that the real heir of Alfred before the crossing did not have a strong soul power, and what he cultivated at that time was also the traditional Dou Qi, so after the crossing, where did the Dou Qi go?
Augustus couldn't figure it out.
Unable to figure it out and unable to ask, he could only put aside this confusion for the time being, and asked Old Vernon if he knew the specific process of transforming soul power into faith power.
Old Vernon shook his head regretfully: "That's why you really need Albert, on the mainland, he may be the only one who can take you to the path of a knight and make you take fewer detours." ”
Augustus nodded, and although he knew that his old butler was exceptionally powerful at his peak, he certainly didn't think that old Vernon knew everything.
He glanced at the sky outside the room, and found that it was dark at some point, and he finally remembered that he had been in this room for almost a whole day, and he might not feel tired, but he had to think about his sister, so he quickly turned to look at Elizabeth's smiling face, which was still with a puzzled expression, Augustus smiled apologetically, pulled Elizabeth to his wheelchair, and asked softly, "Are you tired?"
Elizabeth shook her head slightly, winked and smiled, "Augustus, do you know that since you woke up to me, I will never feel tired again." ”
Augustus didn't speak again, he liked Elizabeth's crescent-like eyes when she smiled.
......
Leaving the room and arriving at the door of 'Rockefeller's Mosquito', Katieeni tried to help Augustus into the carriage, but Augustus suddenly refused, first telling Elizabeth to get into the carriage, and then inexplicably driving his wheelchair alone to the statue in the central square.
It was already dark, and there was no one left in the noisy square, only the traces of excitement left on the ground in the night wind made a rustling sound from time to time, Augustus sat alone under the white statue, his eyes looked at the statue, but his gaze was not focused, he thought about the thrilling 5 days he had experienced when he came to this world, but it was only 5 days, but Augustus just felt more tired than ever- Of course tired, of course nervous, but this kind of tiredness and nervousness he has no one to talk to, and he can't show the slightest, so at this time, when he can finally feel a little more at ease, the physical and mental exhaustion is really uncontrollable.
He closed his eyes deeply, greedily breathing in the air of freedom.
Despite his tiredness, the corners of his lips still outlined the arc of a smile.
Everything is under his control, even if he can't fully grasp it, at least he can control the general direction.
It's a good feeling.
The carriage finally left' Rockefeller's mosquito', in the carriage, watching Elizabeth boil water for him, Augustus casually chatted with her about what troubles little Elizabeth had encountered in the 3 months he was unconscious, and then chatted and chatted, although he was much more relieved, but Augustus still planned Alfred's next development path in his heart, especially considering that he had taken in many civilians, and the huge materials needed in a short period of time could not be maintained simply by grabbing, Augustus asked Elizabeth what were the main financial sources of those nobles in the wasteland。
Of course he couldn't have beaten the idea of the gold mine of the Bishop of Mass, at least not yet.
In the end, he is still Alfred's little earl, Elizabeth almost did not hesitate, put the boiling water in Augustus's hands, she crossed her fingers and said one by one, the average family is maintained by taxes, and if it is a little better, it will send the knights of the family to hunt in the Siberian taiga on the Lich border, and use the fur of the prey to trade with the empire in exchange for supplies, you know, the fur of many animals in the taiga is quite popular in the empire, especially the precious fire fox skin, which has long been fried by the noble ladies and ladies of the empire to the point of no price; , gems and other luxuries, and the empire happened to have all kinds of materials needed by the resource-poor lich, so smuggling came into being, but at present, the smuggling route is mainly in the hands of the two giants, Sauron and Donald.
Of course, Alfred was able to take a share of the profits before the attack.
At this, Augustus seemed to suddenly grasp something, and he was about to speak, but the carriage stopped abruptly without warning, and with it, a crisp woman's scream was clearly heard.
Augustus appeared at the door of the carriage for the first time and lifted the curtain.
At the same time, Katieoni, whose hand was already on the greatsword at his waist, also appeared next to Augustus.
In front of their eyes, an ugly but not uncommon crime was being staged, 3 men surrounded a young woman, threw the woman down in the middle of the road, probably because of the night, maybe too focused, they didn't notice that there was only about 50 meters left from them, the woman was crying and rolling on the ground, and the man was tearing the woman's clothes fiercely, just in front of Augustus and Elizabeth, the woman's clothes were torn almost instantly, revealing a dazzling white in the night, which further stimulated the desire of the three men。
The night itself is the greatest breeding ground for evil.
The woman's mournful cry finally made Elizabeth unbearable, no matter how common such an ugly picture was in the empire or in the wasteland, but since it was encountered, it could not be ignored.
She stealthily grabbed Augustus' sleeve and did not speak, but her intention was obvious.
However, Augustus, who had always cared for her and valued her, did not react.
Elizabeth looked up in confusion and saw that Augustus' face was only completely cold and indifferent.
She pursed her lips tightly, although she knew that there was nothing wrong with Augustus's attitude, theoretically this kind of thing had nothing to do with them, and they couldn't manage too much, but Elizabeth was still subconsciously a little difficult than her brother's indifference, she wrinkled her lovely nose, put her eyes on Katieeni by the carriage, and told Katieeni to help the poor woman.
Katieani bowed down and was about to move forward.
Augustus spoke abruptly and said, "Wait and see." ”
Then, as if to explain to Elizabeth, he added with a blank face: "One of my enduring paranoids is that I never want to believe in any so-called coincidences. ”
