From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 2 Breaking Through the Gift from the Dragon

After two days of gathering, Allen's army had grown to more than two hundred people. Although the number had doubled many times, the route chosen by Allen became more and more remote.

Ryan could see clearly that in his team, he and Allen were the only knights, and there were more than [-] cavalrymen, and the rest were all scarred infantry and even serfs.

This not only slowed down their marching speed, but also multiplied the risk of exposure. On such a plain, the Andes only needed a 50-man cavalry team to defeat them.

Looking back at the sparse team, although there are only a few days left in the journey, he has an inexplicable bad premonition in his heart.

At this moment, Allen, who was leading the way, stopped and ordered everyone to camp by the creek for the night, and cheers erupted in the team.Marching in the wind and snow is really a great test for them, and their physical strength has long been exhausted after a day.

Although Ryan felt that it was not appropriate to camp here, but seeing the exhausted appearance of the people, he knew that this was necessary. If they were forced to move forward, half of these people would probably fall down.

After ordering people to take good care of the horses, Ryan found a rock by the stream and sat down, and began to meditate and adjust his breathing. He hadn't practiced well during this time, which was quite unaccustomed to Ryan, who has always been self-disciplined.

It's still early, just in time to practice.

What he practiced was the secret method passed down by his family. Although it was just an ordinary secret method of fighting qi, his cultivation speed was extremely fast. In just two years, he felt that he was about to touch the threshold of an intermediate knight.

Ryan sat cross-legged on the stone, and the snowflakes had melted before they fell. If you look closely, you will find that a faint purple light enveloped his body.

Allen had just come back from a tour, and was instantly attracted by the purple light on his body, and frowned immediately, this is not a fluctuation of fighting spirit!

"Why is this breath a bit like the magic power fluctuations on those magicians? Could it be that he is a magician?" Allen was a little shocked. He had never heard that a person could perceive magic power while sensing fighting spirit. of.

This is really sensational, and somewhat beyond his cognition.

Ryan didn't know that he had acted unintentionally and shocked a middle-level knight. He only knew that he was also very confused now.

At this moment, in his mind, there is an orange-red diamond-like crystal the size of a thumb, and there is a faint purple dragon swimming in it.

The crystal was slightly suspended, slowly rotating, and some purple mist was absorbed along with the rotation of the crystal.

Ryan was a little panicked at the moment, he didn't know why what he saw in his mind was not a brainstorm but this thing.

Even if this situation is placed in such an extraordinary world, it is quite explosive.

The origin of this crystal is very tortuous. It was obtained in the mountain range when he lost his way, and the source was a large pile of dung from a giant dragon.

That's right, Ryan saw the legendary dragon in that mountain range!

Before that, he had always thought that giant dragons were just extraordinary creatures that existed in novels, and he once joked that he would be a dragon slaying warrior.

After seeing the truth, Ryan realized that he was wrong, and it was so wrong!

The giant dragon just showed a little breath, passed over his head, and then his legs trembled, and he prostrated himself on the ground.

Even if the evil dragon dragged around him, he dared not speak out due to its lustful power, and could only tremble aside, the so-called arrogance of the so-called traverser could not be seen in him.

After the dragon left, he saw that strange crystal next to the pile of Xiang. He thought it was a gemstone at first. After all, dragons are famous for their love of treasures.

As a result, the moment his finger touched it, the crystal instantly turned into a stream of light and rushed into his mind.This frightened him. After a long time, he realized that it had no effect on him before he was relieved.

After that, he had the same nightmare several times in a row, often waking up at night.

But now, in meditation, he saw the appearance of this thing clearly for the first time, which made him a little uneasy, not knowing how this thing would affect him.

"Maybe, I can try to communicate with it?" Ryan murmured to himself.

Just do it, he concentrated all his mental power to wrap the crystal, and tried to touch it.At the moment when the mental power covered it, the crystal trembled visibly.

Afterwards, a drop of crystal-clear purple liquid formed at the bottom of the crystal, and then dripped down.Ryan suddenly felt a mysterious force spreading to his limbs and bones in a flash.

He could clearly feel that his body was undergoing subtle changes, and that change shocked him, because it was a change that could only be brought about by his hard work for several days, and now such a drop of liquid has achieved such an effect!

"Found a treasure."

This was his first thought. Resisting his excitement, he continued to wrap the crystal with mental power, and sure enough, another drop of liquid fell down.

With several drops of liquid dripping down, he achieved the effect that he could only achieve in dozens of days in a short period of time. This feeling made him intoxicated.

After using up the seventh drop of liquid, he didn't continue, because he keenly discovered that the little dragon inside the crystal had shrunk by more than half.

"Could it be that this little dragon is these liquids? Then what are the conditions for its regeneration? Can it absorb the purple mist?" Ryan was a little distressed at once. Not a piece of cake?
Unfortunately, Ziye is limited, and he has not yet mastered the method of regeneration.

"I can only study it slowly in the future." Fortunately, he is not a person who sticks to the horns, so if he can't figure it out, he will take his time.

"Well, I'll call you Dragon Crystal from now on. As for this purple liquid...it's called Yuanli." Ryan casually named the baby he picked up, and then quit the meditation state.

When he opened his eyes, he found Allen staring at him in shock, as if he saw some monster, which made him a little unhappy.

"Your behavior is not in line with noble etiquette, Knight Allen." No one wants to be stared at all the time while practicing, even a knight with a good reputation.

Alan heard the displeasure in his tone, quickly moved his eyes away, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Sir Ryan, your breakthrough process is really too fast, which shocked me."

"Breakthrough?" Ryan finally realized that he had already broken through to an intermediate knight. An intermediate knight is already considered a genius.

"Thank you for the gift from the dragon." He said with some emotion.

"Dragon?" Allen was a little confused for a while.

"Ah, it's nothing, Knight Allen. Is the camp set up?" Ryan hurriedly changed the topic. He didn't intend to let anyone know about the dragon, and I'm afraid no one would believe it.

Allen is a traditional knight who abides by the eight virtues. Although he has many doubts in his heart, it is Ryan's privacy, and he will not pursue it unless Ryan tells him.

He nodded and said: "It has been built, but the scouts have discovered something new. There are traces of Andean cavalry nearby. We may not be able to light the fire."

Allen's words made Ryan's heart sink. In such bad weather, not being able to light a fire means that there will be no flames to keep out the cold at night, and there will be no hot water and cooked food.

There is no problem for the extraordinary, but it will be difficult for the soldiers under their command. For them, this will be a disaster...
