After winning the duel with Jill, Xavier had another quiet few days.

The 'calm' here is relative to before, at least he doesn't have to go to a dozen or twelve, and he doesn't have to fight with people who disagree with him, but can safely hide in the barracks and practice by himself.

Among them, the most thoughtful is naturally his swordsmanship and archery.

In his memory, it seems that he has not worked so hard except for the college entrance examination that year, but unlike in the past, the results of Xavier's current efforts can be truly seen through the system, instead of studying hard every day and not seeing obvious results.

This gives him a sense of accomplishment and motivation to keep going.

Finally, under an opportunity, Xavier slowly felt that the original owner's 'Sword Dance' memory was officially fused with his soul, marking that he had officially learned all the skills in the first column of the attack line.

In other words, when he is one-to-many, he can first use 'Sword Dance' to deal with one enemy with less health, and then activate the 'Nexus' effect to destroy the other three enemies in the 'Nexus' state at the same time.

But don't forget, he also has the skill 'Combo', which allows Xavier to instantly kill another enemy within distance after defeating an enemy, and with the effect of 'Nexus', it means that eight enemies will be destroyed at the same time, and one hit will not be any problem!

The only problem is that only the 'Sword Dance' of the three skills can be useful in heads-up situations, so Xavier should give priority to the skills that improve his heads-up strength when he upgrades his skills next.

As for archery, although he is still a long way from the captain and Miss Hannah, the improvement is obvious, at least his accuracy has improved a lot, or he just feels good about himself.

On this day, Sir Liszt summoned Xavier to his camp, and after a pleasantry he asked, "Xavier, are you literate?"

If Xavier had asked this question in his previous life, he would probably have been thought to be scolding by others, but in this society with many illiterates, Xavier quickly understood what the captain meant, and hurriedly responded, "Of course." ”

Although he did not fully inherit the memory of the original owner, it was not difficult for him to read, write, and listen to basic words.

"Good. The baron smiled at him, and then maliciously handed Xavier a pile of papers beside him, asking him to help him review it, which he called 'training'.

"These are all pieces of information from all over the world, you can take a look at it first, and tell me if there is anything important. ”

In the face of this hand-shaking shopkeeper, Xavier was speechless for a moment, and hurriedly talked about his shortcomings, what was afraid of delaying the military plane, regardless of the severity and so on, but in the end he was sent away by the baron with chicken soup.

"It's because I'm optimistic about you, don't let me down!"

Xavier had no choice but to leave in disgrace, and the only thing that made him feel good was that soon after, he saw Miss Hannah also come out with a pile of papers from the captain's camp......

[Shocked! Eighteen girls were left in the camp by their superiors in order to do the following!]

As the saying goes, Xavier really understands this truth now, and the dissatisfaction that originally arose in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

Immediately, under the light of the sun, he read one document after another.

Most of the documents were obviously useless, such as the pregnant woman in the village who was pregnant again, or how the sow should be cared for after giving birth.

What was really useful was the intelligence from the front, because it let Xavier know that Barry's guess was indeed not wrong.

Dozens of days ago, the war between the Minoan Empire and the barbarians of the north had started again, and it was currently fighting fiercely in the north of Gournia, and no one knew whether the fighting would spread to the village of Reston in the south of the province.

According to the intelligence, the Empire is still in the lead, successfully holding on to a series of offensives, but Xavier is clearly not convinced.

In his previous life, when World War II was about to be lost, Dongying still said every day that he had completely annihilated the Eagle Sauce Fleet!

Of course, he didn't want this to happen to him, it was best for the two sides to stop fighting quickly, he didn't want to be sent to the front line as cannon fodder.

After processing the documents in one go, Xavier reported some information that he felt should be reported, and immediately received the baron's high praise.

"Thank you, Xavier, and I'm right to hand it over to you. The baron looked at Xavier and smiled slightly, feeling that his recruitment was really a good idea, and he could greatly share his responsibilities.

"It's just a gesture. Xavier replied against his will.

Seeing that his mission had been completed, Xavier wanted to retire first, but was stopped by the baron and told him to wait for Hannah, the leader of the detachment, who was also called in.

It turned out that the captain hoped that the two detachment leaders could help him complete a mission, a mission that he did not know whether it was dangerous or not.

"You must have heard of the legend of the northern forest? That is, there is a snake spirit in the forest, who often turns into a beautiful woman, tricks others into it, and then takes its soul and blood. ”

If Xavier had heard this kind of story in his previous life, he would probably have scoffed, but since he saw the water ghost and his magical skills, he can believe that there are people in this world who can fly, let alone snake spirits?

As for this legend, in fact, Xavier once heard Barry tell it, and he still looked like he believed it, according to him, a few years ago, there was a hunter who did not believe in the legend of the snake spirit, and chose to go on his own adventure, and then there was no news. Everyone said that he was eaten alive by the snake spirit.

The captain repeated this as well, but he felt that there was a monster that had eaten the hunter, but even if there was a snake spirit, he didn't think that a monster would survive a day under the siege of the army.

Against this backdrop, some villagers have recently reported that they often hear miserable cries outside the forest, which is very strange, indicating that it is a snake spirit crying.

"But to be honest, I don't quite believe the villagers' claims. "So I've sent Jill and Spencer to help me with the preliminary investigation, and you'll see them at the entrance." ”

"And all you need to do is to find out the source of the strange sound completely according to the information they have given, and if it's a monster, help me clean it up!"

Seeing that the two of them nodded yes, the baron nodded in satisfaction, and then added, "If you encounter a danger that you cannot solve, please use the signal flare I gave to little Hannah immediately, and I will immediately bring someone to support when I see it." ”

"Remember, your lives are more important!

In the face of the concern from his superiors, Xavier felt a little warmth in his heart, and he understood why the soldiers respected the captain so much.

Then the two did not waste time, grabbed their equipment and set off from the barracks.
