Chapter Eighty-Seven: Wasted Effort

After the trip to the royal capital, the Marquis of Cullen looked even thinner, and his sideburns, which were black before, now have a few strands of white hair.

However, his spirit is quite good, even if the eldest son David pokes such a big basket out, he doesn't seem to be affected too much.

In the morning, he presided over Yin Leiya's canonization ceremony, ate a small leg of lamb at noon, and began to practice swords in the courtyard in the afternoon.

When Yin Leiya and Li Yu arrived at the Marquis's Mansion, he had just finished sparring with his own guard captain, sweating profusely, glanced at Li Yu beside Yin Leiya, and said, "Do you want to play two?" ”

"No, thank you, I don't know how to use a sword."

"I can see that you are the type of person who prefers to use your brain to solve problems, and wisdom does work more than fists most of the time, but ...... There will inevitably be other moments in your life when you have to rely on the sword to solve the problem, come on, I will teach you a few tricks. ”

After speaking, Marquis Kulun didn't wait for Li Yu to answer, and had already thrown the blunt sword used for practice over.

Li Yu could only reach out and catch it.

After that, the head of the Figuerola family threw another sword to Yin Leia, who was beside him.

The latter was surprised, "Am I coming too, I'm just a woman." ”

"But you're a knight now, and don't you charge ahead when you fight that black dragon?"

"Hmm......"

"Anyway, I'm going to teach you how to stand, spread your feet apart, like I did, shoulder-width apart, right, take a step forward with your left foot, point your toes in the direction you want to attack, and spread the toes of your other foot apart, and make your feet in a T-shape, so that your bodies are as balanced as possible in all four directions.

Next, bend your knees slightly and relax your body, but don't relax too much, and keep your back straight. No, your shoulders are too stiff, which dulls your movements, and sluggishness in combat means danger. ”

Marquis Kulun said to Li Yu, and when he looked at the female lord, he was surprised to find that the girl's posture was quite standard.

"Have you practiced before?"

"No, but when I was a kid I used to watch my father practice his sword in the open space in front of the castle."

"Oh. Although I have said it once before, I still want to say that I deeply regret what happened to your father. "And this is due to my lax discipline, and I need to apologize to you for what my eldest son, David, has done, Sir Yin Leia." ”

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

The girl pursed her lips.

"Tell me if there's anything I can do for you."

"Justice, I want nothing but justice, my lord." The female lord said without hesitation.

"Then you will receive the justice you desire, I assure you with the honor of the Figuerola family." The Marquis of Coulomb did not change his face.

"But David is your son, the future master of the West......"

"I have two sons, and just three years ago, I got a grandson, so you don't have to worry about my heir." Marquis of Coulen said.

After a pause, he said to Li Yu again, "It's better, let's learn to hold the sword, hold the hilt with the right hand, try to get as close to the handguard as possible, and hold the back with the other hand, don't touch the handle, so that you can ensure the strength of the sword and maintain the accuracy of the sword."

"Finally, the stance, lower the sword, the tip of the sword is pointing downward, pointing to the ground, this stance will trick the opponent into attacking you, pay attention to his footsteps, and the direction of the attack......"

Marquis Cullen spent about half an hour instructing the two of them on some basic swordsmanship knowledge.

But if you want to apply this knowledge to actual combat, you still need to go through a long and boring training process, but neither Yin Leiya nor Li Yu is very interested in persevering.

As a woman, Miss Rabbit didn't feel that she needed to master swordsmanship, as for Li Yu, as a prophet, she had no intention of becoming a warrior, and if she really wanted to fight in close combat, he also had an electronic riot weapon.

Therefore, the Marquis of Cullen has been busy for so long a day, but in fact, it is all in vain, and he flatters the blind man.

Fortunately, he finally got to the point and asked Li Yudao, "You said that the foreigner named Gabriel and his clansmen are going to attack us?" ”

"That's right. His exact words at the time were - revelry, revelry, for your good days are coming to an end, and the brave and fearless Winged Clans will cross the ocean to conquer this decaying and decaying land for their mother goddess, enslaving all the stupid and weak land races. ”

Li Yu repeated Gabriel's threat.

Marquis Cullen frowned, "Did he mention where his hometown was?" ”

Li Yu shook his head, "No." ”

"How many of them are there?"

"I don't know."

"I can understand your concerns, but with just one sentence, it is difficult for me to convince His Majesty the Emperor and the other nobles of the empire to pay enough attention to this matter." Marquis Cullen said frankly.

"After all, for thousands of years, there has not been such a winged guy on the continent of Bratis, and it seems that his arrival on our land is more like an accident."

"There hasn't been a dragon on the continent of Brattis for three thousand years, but just over a month ago, my men and I just killed one," said the female lord, "There is a first time for everything. ”

The head of the Figuerola family pondered for a moment, "In this case, I will have the news go to those cities on the eastern coast, and ask the lords there to inquire with the local seafarers and merchants to see if there are any places abroad where there is such a group of winged people."

"If this place really exists, I can say that some families should be vigilant and make some preparations and arrangements in advance."

"What about His Majesty the Emperor?" Miss Rabbit still has a good impression of the emperor who gave her the title of Dragon Slayer Knight.

However, he listened to the Marquis of Cullen, "You had better not expect too much from Your Majesty. ”

"Is it because of the goddess of life?" The female lord remembered what David had said earlier, "Was Your Majesty bewitched by her?" ”

"It seems that similar rumors have spread to the West, but things are more complicated than you think. I also met with the priest of the goddess when I went to the royal capital this time, and I personally learned her methods, and I can only say that her ability is probably not below you the prophet Merlin. Marquis Cullen said.

Before Li Yu could say anything, Yin Leiya was shocked first, "Really, is she so powerful?" Can she also record sounds, and can she control the three-eyed bird? ”

"No, but she has something else."

"What skills."

"She can spy on people's hearts, burrow into your head, and any of your secrets will not hide in front of him." Marquis Cullen warned, "If you encounter her, you must not have any physical contact with her. ”
