Walking through the streets of the Rhine, the gray haze is not unsettling.

When it snows every winter, coal is burned in large quantities to keep warm, and the iconic building is not the steeple church in the middle of the city, near the River Diana, but the huge smoke-filled chimneys on the outskirts.

The name of the church is the Church of Holy Grace, which is also known as the Holy Grace Church of the Rhine. Every year on January 19th, people go there for the baptism of grace, and legend has it that those who disrespect the church will be turned into beasts by the witch Sersi.

I don't know if it was because of people's devout belief in the gods or because they were afraid of their might, people looked up at the church spire with reverence.

The Diana River near St. Grace Rheinland is a well-known tourist attraction that attracts visitors from the surrounding towns at the beginning of spring. Of course, it is also a dating place for young men, women, gentlemen and ladies in the Rhine.

The wide and huge iron railing door was pushed open by the old guard at the entrance of the third high school in Rhinetown, and in the spring when everything was flourishing, the spring rain fell on the small northern border town of the Franco-Austrian Alliance, and the old man still wrapped himself tightly.

He watched with a pair of numb, vicissitudes of life as young boys and girls entered the school, and the last one to come to the gate of the campus was Tienoso, a military training instructor specially hired by the Third High School.

Tienoso, who retired from the army due to age and injury, is rumored to be a fourth-level war master who ignited fourteen yuan points and was able to form a battle qi protector.

He had a tall and muscular stature, about thirty-five years of age, and his eyes were so hideous under a huge scar on his forehead that his face was intimidating, and his short hair stood on end like a steel needle.

Under the nickname of a group of crooked melons and cracked dates, fox friends such as the fat man Horo and the skinny black boy Parr, Tienoso is known as the "hedgehog monster", and is also the culprit who makes them miserable for their sports training once a week, once a week, once a week, and once a month.

Tienoso took a deep breath, exhaled a cloud of white mist, and slowly stepped into the campus, and even then, he could make out a slight jolt in his right leg.

Hollo and four or five boys were huddled in the classroom near the window, their laughter loud and loud, their conversations noisy with vulgar slang and characteristic local languages.

Seeing Lin Luowen appear at the door of the classroom, Heluo's fat hand beckoned in the direction of Lin Luowen, and Lin Luowen came closer. "What's wrong, Horo?"

"It's nothing, your state is recovering so quickly, yesterday you were still sick, today it has become much normal. Don't try to play with the pearl anymore? As he spoke, Horo's eyes squeezed towards the person next to him, and his raised eyebrows and teasing eyes combined with his rich expression made the people around him laugh.

Lin Luowen smiled faintly and sat down in his seat.

Perhaps with less than a month to leave the last school of his life, Horo and a few of the boys laughed loudly and wantonly.

Cyrus, who had a handsome face and a tall figure, walked from the door to the corner, stretched out a hand, and wore a gem-encrusted gold ring on his finger, Cyrus smiled on his face, held the collar of the fat man Horo, lifted his body with two hundred pounds, and said softly: "Be quiet! You damn fatty. Do you hear that? ”

The left hand punched the fat man's fat belly, and the fat man was speechless for a while, his ruddy face turned pale, sweat dripping from his forehead and the tip of his nose to his mouth, and Horo nodded with all his might.

At this time, Cyrus glanced back at Lin Luowen, who was staring at him, and a sneer quietly appeared on his face.

He then threw Horo in a corner, and his companions around him were silent. Cyrus took out his handkerchief and wiped his fingers, straightened his body a little more, and walked past Lin Rowan and Fina.

As if she didn't know what was happening, Fina spread out Lin Luowen's palm with one hand, and put the still warm butter bread in Lin Luowen's palm with the other, and said softly: "Come, little Luowen, today my sister brought you your favorite butter bread." ”

You can see the slender and sturdy white calves under the skirt that Fina was wearing, and the women's shoes that might have required a month's salary from her father to be able to afford them.

Cyrus paused in his steps, then continued with some stiffness. Lin Luowen took the bread and ate it quietly, thinking about something.

The theoretical knowledge taught in high school had already been understood very clearly by Lin Luowen, and he felt bored for a while.

For students, the learning of theoretical knowledge is not very important, because this knowledge is essential, it is the foreshadowing that you need to make your own choices in the future, and no one will remind you what to learn, which is undoubtedly ridiculous, because knowledge is very precious.

Of course, some students who choose to join the army and who have ignited the meta-point may ignore some unnecessary theoretical knowledge about using the meta-force to make items, but they will definitely not ignore any knowledge related to life.

The university threshold of the Franco-Austrian alliance does not include any assessment of theoretical knowledge, which will be partially shown in the actual assessment of the college entrance examination in a month.

The day passed quickly, and Lin Luowen, who felt the stomach acid in his stomach burning him a little painfully, walked out of the gate of the third high school quickly.

He trotted at a brisk pace, and even so, after ten minutes, Lin Luowen felt out of breath and finally rushed to the knowledge bookstore. Peter gave the boy fifteen copper coins.

"Uncle Peter, maybe I won't come to work here again in the future." Lin Luowen looked at Peter, and Peter's chubby face smiled, "Okay, is there anything else?" Boy, don't show your inner emotions on your face, it will make people think that you are a coward and an idiot. ”

The boy closed the door, put the pocket of his coat jacket against Peter, and gently twisted a part of it with his fingers, revealing a small piece of emerald green. He looked at Peter's unabashedly greedy light, and there was no change in his calm face.

Peter took a magnifying glass and carefully looked at the jade bracelet with emerald green moire in front of him, put the magnifying glass down, and pointed the emerald green bracelet at the candle flame.

"Loewen, where did this item come from?"

Lin Luowen thought for a while, and then said, "From a bandit." ”

"That's stolen goods, huh?"

The boy nodded.

"Since I choose to trade at arm's length with my Peter, then I will not ask for too much of a share of the profits. This is a delicate green jade bracelet with good Yuan Force conductivity, and it is a pity that it is made into an ornament. Peter said earnestly, looking at Lin Luowen. Lin Luowen didn't say anything.

"Five gold coins, plus a yellow-grade Concealment Recipe."

Lin Luowen and Peter looked at each other for a full ten seconds, and the boy spoke: "I need fifteen opportunities to read in the uncle's private library for two hours, and three gold coins are stored here with you to exchange them for a high-energy nutrient solution of corresponding value. ”

Peter thought for a moment, nodded, and handed the two gold coins to Lin Luowen. So far, Lin Luowen has a total of ten gold coins, twenty-six silver coins, and fifty copper coins in cash.

High-energy nutrient solution is a kind of high-energy concentrated liquid made of Yuan Li, high-energy food, and special medicinal materials, which is divided into three specifications: small, medium, and large, which can provide sufficient energy for first-level to third-level warriors, and will slightly improve the efficiency of polishing Yuan points.

A small high-energy nutrient solution costs five silver coins in the market and can buy a hundred loaves of bread, a medium-sized high-energy nutrient solution costs twenty silver coins, and a large high-energy nutrient solution costs fifty silver coins.

One can imagine what a huge temptation the reward amount of one hundred gold coins offered by those Violet City family merchants was for a third-level warrior, enough to buy two hundred large-scale high-energy nutrient solution potions!

Buying high-energy nutritional potions in the market is a conspicuous matter, but it is not difficult for Peter, a businessman with a wide range of business in secret, after all, the Franco-Austrian alliance attaches great importance to the protection of the interests of merchants.

Peter pulled out two small high-energy nutrient potions from a large leather box in the basement and handed them to Lin Luowen, and wrote the number of ten silver coins minus in the line that belonged to Lin Luowen.

The boy placed the potion above his eyes, and the liquid took on a pale blue color, and on the surface of the potion tube was a reddish mandala flower.

The slightly sweet potion entered the stomach, feeling bursts of heat flowing throughout his body, Lin Luowen closed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed the pleasure of satisfying the hunger and thirst of the cells at this time.

At the same time, there was a pang of pain in their hearts, maybe Cyrus and Fina would drink a small high-energy nutrient potion worth a hundred loaves of bread in a few days? In Fina's eyes, maybe her own hunger aroused her curiosity, like a cat playing with mice, right?

At the high school level, the position and sequence of the first nine yuan points of the human body are taught for free, which means that a high school student can ignite up to the third power of two yuan - eight yuan points without another channel. The skill of the yellow level corresponds to the warriors of level 1 to 3, and the promotion of the fourth level of the battle master requires polishing the ninth yuan point, and polishing the ninth yuan point requires the relevant cultivation methods of battle qi.

And most of the cultivation methods of battle qi are in the hands of nobles, forces, and alliance military.

In the human body, in some vague and brief descriptions, the grinding order and position of the first 256 yuan points, that is, the 8th power of 2, are clearly and fixedly explained, which not only conforms to the laws of natural operation, but also adapts to the human body to better exert physical strength and yuan force. -- "Summary of the Cultivation of Yuan Point Polishing and Ignition"

Lin Luowen felt that his body was full of energy, and he stood on the street and took a deep breath of air mixed with smoke and dust. In his arms, he carried the yellow-level skill book of yellow-level insect and moisture-proof secret concealment and closure recipe and two gold coins. He looked at the clear river flowing below.

The singing came.

"The rivers of the Rhine call to your name, O distant traveler, Diana silently reads you."
