Got up, checked the equipment on his body, and made sure that he was not left behind, Leo put a compound longbow on his back and a long sword at his waist, walked out of the tower, and climbed to the roof with agility.

High in the sky, the gray mist was shrouded, and it was impossible to see the specifics, and the shallow light flowed down from the gaps in the gray fog, bringing little light to this dim world.

Leo picked up the binoculars, squinted his eyes, and the arrow technique, the Eagle's Eye, instantly opened, so that the gray fog in his vision no longer obscured his vision.

He looked at the location of the hundred-meter-high wall.

On the rugged city wall, there is a conspicuous and huge slash mark, which is the mark left by the Great Sword Armor Knight when he dealt with the Black Mud Python monster.

In front of the high-walled city gate, the burly and majestic knight in great sword and armor half-knelt here, and the surroundings were silent and silent.

"Tsk, magic......"

Leo snorted.

Mastering magic, as well as possessing some kind of great sword and armor knight capable of gathering the power of many Yoel knights in one, is an enemy that he cannot defeat at present.

Looking up, Leo looked at the arrow tower above the high wall.

After Joel's archery skills were upgraded to mastery level, the Eagle's Eye, combined with the telescope, allowed him to clearly see the figure on the arrow tower.

It was a three-meter-tall soldier in half-body armor, holding a two-meter-high black giant bow, carrying an enlarged and thick arrow on its back, standing on the arrow tower, constantly scanning the surroundings.

Leo had no doubt about the power of the black bow.

The entire 100-meter-high wall, only at the city gate, is not within the coverage of the arrow tower.

Once he was targeted by the giant bow soldiers on the arrow tower, he did not have the slightest confidence that he could dodge the arrow shot by the terrifying black giant bow.

As for the advance of the Greatbow Soldiers with bows and arrows, it is even more impossible.

The maximum killing distance of the compound longbow is far less than two hundred meters, and during this time he went to the imperial capital, and he was not familiar with the place, so he had no time or channel to buy a special customized version of the longbow.

However, after joining the Kendo Alliance, he can find it through official channels, but the problem is that although he joined the Kendo Alliance, the procedures have not yet been completed, so he has no time to buy it.

Retracting his gaze, Leo began to search for the Knight of Yoel in the southern city district.

For him, the most important thing to do now is to hunt down the Knight of Yor.

Whether it's for the purpose of improving your strength, or for dealing with the big sword and armored knight in front of the high-walled city gate in the future, this is a must-do.

Soon, Leo locked on a squad of Yoel Knights who were patrolling.

The leading knight of Yor, leading a large deformed dog, slowly patrols the streets.

Behind it, followed by two knights of Yor, all three of whom marched in a zigzag pattern.

That's you.

Leo's eyes narrowed, and he decided on the target.

Before acting, he looked at his panel.

[Soul Fire Color: Dark Gray]

[Soul Fire Brightness: 3.85]

[Current Status: Healthy, Distorted (Hyperdyed 28.1%)]

[Acquired Skills: Royal Swordsmanship (Mastery 405/500), Yoel Archery (Mastery 380/500), Storm Swordsmanship (Mastery 351/500), Thousand Flames Swordsmanship (Mastery 330/500)]

During the few days he stayed in the imperial capital, while he was conducting "hell training" for Jiang Xiaocha and the four of them, his own swordsmanship was also improved, and yesterday's battle against the knights of Lan Luoyinsi, under the stimulation of life and death, his swordsmanship attainments have been greatly improved.

Between life and death, it is always the most sharpening person.

Today, the most proficient royal swordsmanship has reached the level of "proficient in 405/500", and he is only 95 points of proficiency away from promotion.

The reason why the proficiency of the royal swordsmanship came from behind was because Leo poured his focus on this only high-level swordsmanship, and most of the time, he practiced this swordsmanship.

High-level swordsmanship involves the secret of magic power, although the mastery level is enough to become the key to unlocking magic power, but Leo is ready to test whether the higher-level high-level swordsmanship has an impact on the opening of magic power.

Having determined the target of the hunt, Leo no longer hesitated, and quickly and silently advanced to the top floor of the tower, approaching the location of the Knight of Yor's team.

It didn't take long for him to arrive at the intended sniper location.

Take off the longbow, open the bow, draw the string, and aim, the eagle's eye locks onto the target, and the corners of Leo's mouth are slightly raised, and the bowstring is released.

"Hugh—"

The air let out an overwhelmed wail before the swirling arrow missed.

The deformed dog held in the hands of the Knight of Joel had no time to react, and fell to the ground in the next moment of the sound.

The metal arrow stabbed deep into its head, taking its life in the first place.

The sudden attack alerted the three Joel knights in an instant.

They drew their swords, their scarlet eyes under their helmets scanning their surroundings for the "attacker".

However, in the gray and foggy urban area, even if they are them, they can only see things within tens of meters, how can they find Leo on the top floor of the tower a hundred meters away?

After a long search to no avail, the three Knights of Yoel lifted their alert and resumed patrolling.

Weakened by the aberration, they have long lost the ability to think, and will only instinctively follow their inner obsessions.

At the top of the tower, Leo pinned the compound longbow behind him, turned over and went downstairs, to the second-story balcony near the street, and waited patiently against the wall.

The Three Horsemen made their way down the street, and soon approached the balcony where he was.

Without hesitation, Leo leaped into the air, his sword piercing through the Knight of Jor's helmet and plunging deep into its skull.

The hard helmet and skull were shattered without the slightest resistance under the sharpness of [Chasing Light].

Drawing his sword and cutting off his head, Leo stepped on the body of the Jör's knight with both feet, and rushed towards the other two Jör's knights with his strength.

Facing Leo, whose sword skills and physical fitness were superior to them in all aspects, even if the two Yoel knights combined together, they were no match at all, and five seconds later, there were only three corpses left on the street that slowly turned into ashes and dissipated.

On the top floor of the tower, Leo looked at the character panel in front of him, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile at the same time, but also with a surging solemnity.

【Absorbing Broken Souls (5)......】

【Absorb Broken Souls (3)*3......】

[Soul Fire Brightness: 3.85→3.88]

[Current status: healthy, distorted (28.1% → 29% of hyperdye)]

——

"The degree of distortion erosion has reached 29%......

Leo muttered softly, a sense of urgency welling up in his heart.

At 10% of the distortion, he doesn't feel much, and at 20% of the time, his is uncontrollably scarlet when agitated.

I don't know how 30% will affect my body......

If he wants to survive and move forward in the dream world, he must constantly improve the brightness of his soul fire, and the increase in the brightness of his soul fire will inevitably bring about a deepening of the degree of distortion and erosion.

Suppressing his thoughts, Leo continued his search for his next target.

No matter what changes will be brought about by the distortion erosion degree reaching 30%, now he must improve his strength first.

It's a race that costs lives.

……

In the daytime of the dream world, there is no sun.

The sky was completely obscured by gray fog, with only a shallow shimmer.

The city of Yor, an ancient and quiet city, is quietly killing at this moment.

Inside a dimly lit alley.

Leo lowered his head and drew his sword from the head of the fallen Knight of Jörl in front of him, and not far in front of him, there were the bodies of three other Knight of Jör.

Just now, he attacked this four-man patrol team in the alley.

His increasingly strong physical fitness and royal swordsmanship made it difficult for him to face the siege of four Yoel knights.

2k

A full 4 hours have passed since this trip to the dream world.

So far, Leo has killed a total of 45 Joel Knights.

45 knights means 45 Jör's Sword Soul Ashes that can be converted into royal swordsmanship "experience".

——

[Soul Fire Color: Dark Gray]

[Soul Fire Brightness: 3.88→4.55]

[Current status: healthy, distorted (hyperdyed 28.1%→51.2%)]

[Acquired Skills: Royal Swordsmanship (Mastery 498/500), Yoel Archery (Mastery 380/500), Storm Swordsmanship (Mastery 361/500), Thousand Flames Swordsmanship (Mastery 340/500)] (All major swordsmanship has a small improvement in battle)

——

Leo looked up, a blood-like scarlet light in his childlike eyes.

The corners of his mouth went up, with a bloodthirsty smile.

It took a long time for Leo to suppress his desire to kill.

"Hoo ......"

Exhaling deeply, the scarlet color of Leo's childlike eyes slowly faded.

The degree of aberration infection was more than 50%, and the side effects were even greater than he expected.

Once he enters the combat state, he will inevitably fall into a state of extreme excitement, and there is a feeling of tearing apart everything living in front of him.

Fortunately, the royal swordsmanship that was about to be promoted made his spiritual power stronger and stronger, so he could barely suppress it.

After absorbing the soul ash, looking at the character panel in front of him, Leo said to himself: "Yoel's sword soul ash, the proficiency of transforming into royal swordsmanship is getting lower and lower......"

A full 45 soul ashes have only increased by 90 proficiency points.

Although he had expected it, Leo couldn't help but feel disappointed.

There is a limit to the ascension of soul ash.

Its essence is a skill that the deceased will never forget during his lifetime, even if he dies, but the problem is that the Yoel swordsmanship that these Yoel knights learned is only a cut version of the royal swordsmanship, even if they have practiced the Yoel swordsmanship to the mastery level or above during their lifetime, and transformed it into the royal swordsmanship, at most it can only support the breakthrough mastery level.

This is still the convergence of many different perceptions of the knights of Joel, and it is barely possible.

When you reach the mastery level, I'm afraid that if you continue to absorb it, it will be difficult to increase your proficiency by 1 point.

Standing still, waiting for the murderous desire in his heart to disappear completely, Leo turned over and went upstairs to the top floor of the tower.

After four hours of hunting, there was not much left of the knights of Yoel in the southern part of the city.

According to the estimation of the number of people summoned by the Great Sword Armor Knight that day, there are only about a dozen left at most.

These dozen or so Yoel knights are scattered in the huge southern city area, and it takes a lot of effort to find them.

Based on Leo's experience of hunting for so long, not all of the Knights of Yoel were on patrol, and some of them would hide in the corners of dark alleys to rest.

Perhaps, this is an alternative "shift"?

Leo thought thoughtlessly as he searched for his target with his telescope.

Five minutes later, he put down his binoculars, his face a little ugly.

After five minutes of searching, I didn't find a single Knight of Yor.

Damn, change shifts, you won't be so "fishing", right?

Sighing, in desperation, Leo could only turn over and go downstairs, ready to start from the beginning, slowly searching one tower after another.

The royal swordsmanship is only 2 points away from being able to be promoted, and the brightness of the soul fire has not yet reached 5.0, which is the value of 100% open mana.

In terms of the brightness of the soul fire, Leo wanted to open it, because even if he killed all the remaining knights in the entire southern city, it was still a long way from 5.0, and he really had no choice, so he could only choose to open the magic with a non-100% success rate.

But at the very least, royal swordsmanship must be promoted to the next level.

At that time, not only will he be able to master the new sword skills, but the original three sword skills of the royal swordsmanship will also be increased.

On the empty streets, Leo walked alone.

He first went to the entrance street of the city of Jör, and from here, he searched tower by tower.

Of course, he also prepared tools to help in his search - two Yoel swords.

Using the naked eye to search, in a tower with a complex indoor environment, the efficiency is too low, and he plans to use two long swords to make a knocking sound to search.

The vigilance of the knights of Yoel is not low, and a slightly louder sound within a radius of tens of meters will attract their attention.

Using sound sources to entice them to appear is the most efficient method that Leo can think of at the moment.

With a plan and tools, Leo sprang into action.

The first tower, with only some useless furniture, pass!

The second tower is a tower, looking at the things inside, it seems to be a baking house? There is also a special shelf for bread inside, so pass it too!

Third Tower......

Along the main street, Leo searched tower after tower.

Soon, he made a discovery.

It is a building that looks almost identical to the other towers.

But the moment Leo entered the interior, two Joel knights rushed out from the inside.

For Leo, just two Joel knights were naturally nothing, and they were quickly solved by him.

What made him care was that these two Yoel knights were a little different from the ones he had killed before.

On the chest of their armor, there is a sun pattern that is different from that of other Yoel knights, which is very conspicuous.

Driven by curiosity, Leo delves deep into the tower and discovers a unique place.

It was a church-like hall, surrounded by candles and lamps, and in the deepest part there was a statue.

Looking at this statue, Leo Tongkong shrank slightly.

He had seen a similar statue in the Ninth Church of Marym, but the one in front of him was a little smaller.

What made Leo even more concerned was the figure in front of the statue.

Dressed in a gold-patterned robe on a white background, it knelt in front of the statue of the goddess, bowing its head in silence.

An inexplicable atmosphere enveloped the entire hall.

On either side of the robed figure, stood two knights with swords.

They are dressed in golden armor, and the sun lines on their chests are very clear.

Not the Knight of Joel!

Leo was in a daze, and his keen perception could detect that the strength of these two knights in golden armor, or the knights with sun stripes, was by no means comparable to ordinary knights of Yoel.

Elite units......

Leo took a deep breath and slowly withdrew.

He came outside the tower and rolled over to the top of the next tower.

Lowered his head and looked at the soul ashes dropped by the two Yoel knights he had just killed.

A flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.

As long as you absorb them, the royal swordsmanship can be promoted!

Without hesitation, Leo pressed it to his eyebrows.

【Soul Ash Absorption ......】

[Soul Ash Absorbed...... [Yoel's Swordsmanship] is converted to [Royal Swordsmanship] proficiency by a certain percentage! 】

【Royal Swordsmanship (Mastery 498/500)→ (Mastery 500/1000)】
