The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 302 Bloodline (Two chapters in one)

The Munster Swordbearers branch is not far away.

Located on the second floor of Mona Coffee Shop on the street.

Ryan and Olena were sipping coffee and chatting casually.

Olena was naturally curious about to whom Ryan was going to give the 10% stake in the Münster branch of the Axon Auction House.

At this moment, she looked out through the window on the second floor and caught a glimpse of a luxurious carriage slowly stopping at the door of the coffee shop.

Most people would not choose to sit in a coffee shop early in the morning. Obviously, this is most likely the main reason.

This immediately made Olena's heart slightly excited, 'It should be the real one! I wonder if it is the girl with twin ponytails? Or the girl with flaming red hair?'

But the next second, Olena's body stiffened slightly, and her expression was somewhat stunned!

Because she only saw a beautiful woman with a plump figure, holding up the hem of her skirt, walking slowly down from the carriage, with a full sense of noble lady temperament.

The other person was wearing a light blue one-shoulder silk dress and a pearl necklace around her neck, which could not hide the large white and towering chest at all.

The exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio is so amazing that even from a female aesthetic perspective, one can't help but admire it. What a stunner!

But the problem is
From Olena's perspective, she can see the other person's face clearly.

Is the other person probably a few years older than her?
This made Olena secretly glance at Ryan.

No way?
So Lord Ryan likes small horses pulling big carts?
But Olena reacted immediately.

Although Lord Ryan is young, he is no pony. He has a body as strong as a sculpture. He is naturally a fine horse and a BMW!
But isn’t it strange that a horse pulls a cart?

Could it be that Lord Ryan has some kind of hobby and likes this kind of mature and charming beautiful woman?

Oh no, oh no, could it be that Lord Lei has also taken a fancy to me?
When the capable young woman thought of this, her heart suddenly became confused and a blush appeared on her fair face.

Ryan, who was standing by, was a little confused as to why the heartbeat of Lady Olena beside him seemed to suddenly speed up.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Please come in!"

Sure enough, the beautiful woman that Olena had just seen appeared at the door.

A closer look confirmed Olena's judgment. Although the other person was well-maintained, he must be a little older than her.

"Let me introduce you, Jennifer. This is Her Excellency Olena, the Deputy Director of Mission Hall Affairs of the Sword Bearer Division."

"Lady Olena, this is Baroness Jennifer of Crowley, my housekeeper and head of the Warhammer Rose Chamber of Commerce."

"Sir Ryan, this lady is so beautiful." Olena was even more shocked when she heard the other party's title.

Lord Ryan actually likes flowers that already have an owner?
At the same time, he mourned for a few seconds in his heart for Baron Crowley, whom he had never met.

"Ma'am, you are about the same age as me. If you don't mind, can I call you by your name Jennifer?"

"Of course you can. Lady Olena is beautiful, young, and holds an important position in the empire. You are really enviable." The beautiful woman was well-mannered, nodded slightly, and said with a smile.

Soon, the two girls became familiar with each other.

Since Ryan's schedule was full, it was impossible for the two to chat for too long. He just coughed and said:
"Mr. Olena, as for the shares, just put them in Jennifer's name. She is more proficient in business matters than I am."

"Okay, Sir Ren."

"Shares?" The beautiful woman blinked her big eyes, a little confused.

Early in the morning, Jennifer received a message from Ryan, asking her to come to Mona Coffee Shop, but she was still a little confused.

The capable young woman on the other side had the shrewdness of a person in the system, but there was a hint of shyness on her face. Could she be another one of Mr. Ryan's...?
Seeing Jennifer's confused face, Olena immediately understood something, "Hmm? Didn't Lord Ryan mention this to the other party?"

"Mr. Ryan intends to transfer 10% of the shares of the Münster branch of the Axon Auction House to your name, Jennifer. Although this matter has not yet been finalized and will not take effect until our contract is signed, it is likely that there will be no problem at the moment."

Olena explained.

One percent of the shares of the Yaxun Auction Branch?
These words immediately shocked Jennifer!
The Axon Auction House? She knew it best. Even if it was a branch in a province, the profits were extremely lucrative, and the relationships behind it were even more complicated.

Jennifer had never thought about becoming a shareholder of Axon Auction House before.

But unexpectedly, it has now fallen on her head.

However, Jennifer had a vague feeling that this 10% stake seemed to have some connection with the battle the day before yesterday.

"Jennifer, I think you should take the lead on business matters. I have limited energy and don't have time to make good use of this resource." Ryan added.

"This"

For a moment, the beautiful woman was a little confused!

It’s not that she didn’t have the confidence to do this, but she didn’t know how to thank Ryan all of a sudden.

I really don’t know.

After all, everything that can be developed has been developed.

"Yes, Lord Ryan is the rising star of our Sword Bearer Munster branch and will become the pillar of the empire in the future. I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, Jennifer, to take care of the business matters."

Olena said with a smile.

"Okay then. I'll just hold it on your behalf. However, becoming a shareholder of the auction house will be of great help to the Warhammer Rose Chamber of Commerce." The beautiful woman changed her mind and did not refuse.

Lately, she has been busy with business development, but with little progress.

Once she really becomes a shareholder of the Axon Auction House, not only will these problems be solved, but the Chamber of Commerce will also usher in a new period of rapid development. She does not want to miss this opportunity.

Besides, Ryan really can't worry about these business matters.

"Then Jennifer, at 2 pm, I will go with you to the Axon Auction House branch to sign the equity transfer contract with the other party, is that okay?"
"Yes, Master Olena."

"Sir Ryan, Jennifer, I'll leave first. There are some things I need to prepare."

"Of course, please go ahead, Lady Olena." Ryan nodded.

Now, Ryan and the beautiful woman were the only two people left in the box.

"Dear, the shares don't have to be in my name. Write it in"

"Jennifer, this matter has been happily decided." With no outsiders around, Ryan's hand naturally rested on the soft part of the beautiful woman.

This made the beautiful woman blush slightly, but she nodded tactfully and offered a passionate kiss. Her hands also began to slide down and took the initiative to untie
After a while, the beautiful woman wiped the corners of her mouth shyly.

But Ryan was obviously not satisfied. He pulled the curtain of the box and easily placed the beautiful woman on the coffee table. He held the beautiful woman's slender waist with one hand and lifted the hem of her one-shoulder dress with the other hand.
( words omitted here)

At this time, Olena, who had just left the coffee shop, suddenly remembered that there was something she forgot to tell Lord Ryan.

So, she, who had just arrived at the entrance of the Sword-Bearers' Division, turned around and walked back again. However, when she accidentally glanced at the box where she had just been, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Because she was sure that when she was in the box, the curtains were open, and she saw Jennifer walk in.

But now it's pulled up
No way?
The two of them clapped their hands right away?

Olena couldn't help but feel a raging fire of gossip in her heart.

But after quickly reaching the door, she thought about it and slowed down her pace. She didn't dare to go up to the second floor or go to the box nearby to listen.

the reason is simple.

Because Lord Ryan's strength is so terrifying, as soon as her footsteps appear in the corridor, Lord Ryan will immediately notice them.

If you disturb the other person, then the result will be counterproductive.

I'd better wait downstairs.

An hour later, the beautiful woman was able to rest for a while on the soft sofa. She panted heavily, lifted her slightly messy hair by her ears, and looked at Ryan tiredly:
"My dear, you are amazing."

She had just done three connections, otherwise it would have really broken down.
"Boom boom boom!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

The beautiful woman immediately stood up and quickly tidied her appearance.

"Eh? Lady Olena."

"Sir Ryan, I'm sorry, I just forgot to tell you something important." Olena looked straight ahead, but her nose had already smelled that familiar scent.

"Sir Ryan, I have made an appointment with Master Mogaro of the Bishu Construction School."

"Master Mogaro will meet you in three days."

"These masters all have strange tempers. I had to tell them that the Giant Axe Golem Guard was captured by you, and only then did Master Mogaro agree to meet with you." Olena said a little helplessly.

Ryan nodded and said, "That's great. Thank you, Ms. Olena."

Ever since Olena told him last time that there were several masters from the Bishu Construction School studying the Giant Axe Golem Guard in Munster, he planned to find an opportunity to talk to them.

He mainly wanted to ask the other party about some things within the school.

If the conditions are right, he would like to go for further studies.

Because there seems to be a lot of metal-based witchcraft in the Bishu Construction School, and puppetry and metal-based witchcraft are highly compatible. Perhaps he will have some extra gains in the Bishu Construction School by then.

After saying goodbye to the beautiful woman Jennifer, Ryan returned to the branch residence.

After taking another shower, Ryan went out again feeling refreshed.

Not long after, he came back with a pale yellow parchment scroll in his hand.

"Before, due to insufficient gold skill points, the task of perfecting the breathing method was temporarily stopped. Now that the total gold skill points have reached 17 points, this task can naturally continue."

After pouring a cup of Yotun black tea, Ryan sat down at the desk, opened the parchment scroll that recorded the "Giant Firebird Breathing Method", and began to read it carefully.

About half an hour later, Ryan put down the parchment scroll, leaned back in his chair, and began to think. "This Giant Fire Bird Breathing Method only has 22 moves in total, which may not be as good as the Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method, but it should be enough to take the Fire Dragon Breathing Method, which already has 29 moves, to a new level."

Without much hesitation, Ryan came to the training room and immediately began to practice the Giant Firebird Breathing Technique.

The first movement of the Giant Firebird Breathing Method also had a strange posture, similar to the "Toe Bridge Pose" in Ryan's previous life's yoga, but for Ryan, it was naturally not difficult at all.

A few seconds later, Ryan completed the first move.
Then comes the second move.

About half an hour later, Ryan successfully performed all twenty-two movements of the Giant Firebird Breathing Method.

At this time, the system prompts:
[Ding! The host's Giant Firebird Breathing Method has been detected, and it has reached the lowest level of integration into the Fire Dragon Breathing Method. The current conditions are met and it can be integrated into a new breathing method. This fusion will consume 2 gold skill points. Yes/No? ]

"Hey, it still only takes 2 gold skill points this time? That's a good thing."

Ryan nodded secretly and immediately chose "yes".

Then, on the Weapon Master (Legend) panel, the lv14 Fire Dragon Breathing Technique flashed a few times, then dropped to lv13, and the words "Unknown Breathing Technique" appeared.

[Yes/No to rename the new breathing method? ]

"no!"

"Just as expected, this time it has only been lowered by one level. The more excellent quality breathing methods are integrated, the more gradual the improvement will be, unless a breathing method of a higher level than excellent quality can be integrated."

At the same time, a huge amount of memories about the new breathing method began to flow into Ryan's mind.
After he absorbed this memory, the system prompt came again:
[Ding! The host's Fire Dragon Breathing Technique has been detected to be promoted to the Legendary Breathing Technique. The host can gradually use the breathing technique to turn certain recessive gene fragments in his blood into dominant ones.]

"Ok?"

"Bloodline?"

"Could it be that there are some unknown secrets in my blood?"

After Ryan read the system prompt several times, he was still a little confused.

Because, as far as he knew, his parents had always been ordinary farmers in the Town of Shining Gold, and he had never heard his parents mention any illustrious family history.

"Could it be that in ancient times, my ancestors were some kind of noble bloodline?"

"In that case, maybe I can ask my mother about it during dinner tonight."

"Also, what does the recessive gene fragment mentioned in the system prompt represent specifically?"

Ryan thought for a while and shook his head slightly.

We know too little at the moment, and even guessing is hard to come by.

He decided not to think about it anymore.

This is the annoying thing about the system. Sometimes it will suddenly turn into a riddle man.

but
When Ryan focused his attention on his body, he could clearly feel a difference.

Not only has the activity level of the Force increased, but it seems that some subtle changes are also taking place deep inside the body.

But he could feel that things seemed to be moving in a good direction.

And Ryan reviewed the new 'Fire Dragon Breathing Method' in his mind, which had been promoted to the legendary level.

Sure enough, the number of training postures for the Fire Dragon Breathing Technique reached a total of thirty-two.

This also made Ryan vaguely confirm one thing, that is, it is very likely that whether the breathing method has thirty movements is a critical point recognized by the system, which distinguishes the breathing methods of excellent quality and legendary quality.

Out of curiosity about the effects of the legendary breathing method, Ryan quickly began to practice it in the training room.

"Eh, this is difficult."

It took Ryan half a minute to master just the first posture, which was a qualitative difference in difficulty from the previous high-quality breathing methods that could be mastered in a few seconds.

"Sure enough, quantitative change leads to qualitative change!"

It took Ryan nearly half an hour to practice the 25th posture. When he reached the point where he was doing the exercise, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. Of course, this was without Ryan trying to control himself.

"This kind of training effect." Ryan's eyes lit up!
After about another quarter of an hour, Ryan finally completed the whole set of movements, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

"This is only the lv13 Fire Dragon Breathing Technique, but the effect is so significant, just like the first time I came into contact with the Giant Bear Breathing Technique." Ryan couldn't help but think to himself.

"If I take it to a higher level, then...

"No, I missed a little bit." Ryan suddenly thought of something.

After taking a quick shower, he went out again and came to the redemption hall.

But on the way there, a system prompt came quietly:

【Congratulations! Your agility attribute is improved! 】

Exchange hall.

"Hello, sir, how can I help you?"

"Please help me list all the excellent breathing methods. I want to exchange some breathing methods."

"Except for these two, don't take the Fire-Winged Flying Serpent Breathing Method and the Fire-Tailed Scorpion Breathing Method, but take the others." Ryan said, pointing to the two lines of white text on the black wisdom slate in front of him.

"Hmm?" The female employee's eyes widened instantly, and she stammered, "Sir, could you please say it again?"

"I don't want these two, I want the rest."

"Sir, there are still four excellent quality breathing methods left. Uh, sir, according to the rules of the sword holder, the breathing method you exchanged can only be used by yourself. Do you know this?"

The female staff member confirmed and reminded again.

"Well, I know. I plan to study it. Is that not possible? Does the branch have a rule that not all of them can be exchanged?" Ryan was a little confused.

"No, no, sir, I mean, you will have to pay 4 gold medals, plus 7800 merit points, which is a large sum."

"Well, I know. I think I have enough mission evaluation medals and merit points, right?" Ryan naturally heard the kind reminder from the young employee, so he said with a smile.

"Since you know everything, sir, I will do it for you." The young employee immediately remembered that the swordsman in front of her was of Diamond Star rank, and her reminder seemed unnecessary.

Soon, Ryan returned to the room with the last four excellent quality breathing methods left in the branch that had not yet been redeemed.

"Moon Fury Tiger Breathing Technique, Frost Blade Leopard Breathing Technique."

After spending several hours and eight gold skill points, Ryan learned all four breathing methods and integrated them into the 'Fire Dragon Breathing Method'.

This increased the number of Fire Dragon Breathing Technique movements from thirty-two to thirty-six, and the level also dropped again by one level to level 12.

Basically, at the current level of quality, it is very difficult to further improve it by integrating excellent quality breathing techniques.

But Ryan could feel that certain changes deep in his body brought about by the new Fire Dragon Breathing Method were becoming more and more obvious.

Although there were only seven gold skill points left, Ryan thought about it and added one point to the Fire Dragon Breathing Technique.

Because at present, Shadow Spear Throwing is still some distance away from using up the gold skill points. In order to enter the ultimate level later, he only needs to reserve a little bit.

At this time, the system prompt came:
【Congratulations! Your physical attributes are improved! 】

【Congratulations! Your strength attributes are improved! 】

"Have the attributes been improved?"

"But it seems to be a little short of the feeling surging in the body."

So, Ryan added some Fire Dragon Breathing technique again.

As the Fire Dragon Breathing Technique was upgraded to level 14, Ryan only felt that some kind of "shackles" deep inside his body broke with a "crack", and something was gushing out.

Ryan opened the attribute panel and found that there was an extra line of description:
[Dragon Bloodline (Thin) Effect: Fire element affinity is slightly increased, Giant Strength talent effect is slightly increased, Steel Body talent effect is slightly increased. ]

"Sigh~"

At this moment, Ryan also had some understanding of the description of the manifestation of recessive genes in the system.

The legendary Fire Dragon Breathing Technique guided and strengthened the dormant dragon bloodline gene fragments in his body.

But the question is, no matter how thin it is, it must exist in order to guide and strengthen it. It can't be created out of nothing, right?

"Could it be that my family was a dragon family long ago? Am I a descendant of dragon blood?"

Dinner time.

Ryan returned to the mansion and had dinner with his family.

"Mother, I want to ask you something. Are there any nobles among your ancestors? The kind of nobles that are relatively big?" Ryan asked indirectly.

"Hmm? Ryan, why did you suddenly think of this question?"

"Of course not. If there were, your father and I wouldn't be in this situation now." Mother Emma looked at Ryan with a strange look and said.

She didn't know why her son asked such a stupid question.

"Okay, father, what about your family? Are there any outstanding people among our ancestors?" Ryan was still unwilling to give up, so he turned his head and asked his father, old Ryan.

"Outstanding person? I've never heard of that."

"However, there is a legend, just a legend."

"It is said that thousands of years ago, before the Dragun Empire was established, there was a Fire Dragon Kingdom on this land. The ruler of the kingdom had the special ability to make a contract with a fire dragon, and our Kalan family is the descendant of a branch of the kingdom's ruler."

"Bah! You have no shame. It happened thousands of years ago, and you still have descendants? Don't forget to flatter yourself for something that is not even recorded in ancient books." Mother Emma couldn't help but said to old Ryan in annoyance.

"Hey! My son asked me this! I also told you that it's just a legend and can't be taken as true." Old Ryan said with an embarrassed look on his face.
