Chapter 325: The Wrong Person (Two Chapters in One)

After enjoying a brunch that had been prepared long ago, Ryan came to the door of the training room on the first floor. At this time, he saw the head maid Xia Diya just turning the corner of the corridor and walking towards him with a set of clothes.

However, the opponent's condition at this time is quite different from before.

The dark circles under her eyes, the haggard face and the occasional yawns did not show her the shrewdness and competence of the previous head maid.

This made Ryan realize instantly that it was probably because of the two raids launched by the enemy last night that the servants in the mansion probably didn't sleep well.

After all, as an ordinary person, faced with that kind of scene, you have no power to resist except to run away.

"Maid Shadya, maybe you should take a good rest. Yesterday's battle was quite intense. You probably didn't get enough rest." Ryan greeted with a smile.

"Hmm?" Xia Diya opened her beautiful eyes wide and looked at Ryan.

Fighting? Fierce?
No way!
Lord Ryan knows I'm eavesdropping?

Xia Diya, who was already feeling guilty about running into Ryan, immediately thought of the embarrassing sound she heard against the wall last night when she heard words like "fierce" and "fighting".

So, in an instant, Xia Diya's face turned red!

The head maid said quickly, "Okay, Master Ryan!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the head maid turned around and ran away, muttering in her heart, "Master Ryan is really something. He even told me about the fierce battle between him and Miss Claire."

Ryan looked at the always serious head maid in front of him with a rather strange look.

"Why did you suddenly get so embarrassed and run away?"

"That doesn't seem like the head maid's personality."

For a moment, Ryan didn't know why the other party was like this.

But soon, he shook his head, stopped thinking about it, opened the door and walked into the training room.

The training room was empty. The only person who might be there - Claire - was not there at the moment. She must be busy or resting.

"What a pity! If I had a sparring partner, I could improve my last extraordinary combat skill even faster!"

"I don't know when Neoro and the others will arrive."

"Generally speaking, there are not enough skill points."

Thinking of this, Ryan was suddenly stunned, because he remembered that yesterday he was almost completely attracted by the legendary profession of Dragon Vein Wizard, and did not check the system prompts after the battle.

Immediately, Ryan opened the system and first glanced at the attribute panel:
Constitution: 48
Strength: 58 (2 points of strength are added during combat)
Agility: 48
Spirit: 59
Will (hidden attribute): 12
"Huh, the will attribute is still improving? Added 2 points." Ryan muttered to himself.

He had thought that since he had chosen 'No' when he changed his job to Sword Saint last time, the hidden attribute of Will should have undergone some changes, but now it seemed that nothing had happened.

"Perhaps, there is a lack of a condition or opportunity."

Ryan continued to scroll upwards and checked the previous battle records:

[Congratulations, you defeated a strong enemy and gained 14 gold skill point! 】

[Congratulations, your Will (Hidden) attribute has been improved! ]

[Congratulations, your Warhammer Wizard (Legend) career level has been upgraded! ]

This time, the Warhammer Wizard (Legend) profession level successfully reached lv10, allowing Ryan to gain 1 attribute point and 1 skill point again.

Adding his original remaining points, the total remaining attribute points are now 3 points, the remaining skill points are 3 points, and the gold skill points are 22 points.

"Huh? You have 3 skill points?"

"Doesn't that mean that I can reach level 7 by adding points at level 10, and then, relying on the talent of 'Intermediate Weapon Mastery', I can comprehend the secret in advance?" Ryan's eyes flickered.

"Forget it, let's save our skill points and proceed as planned!"

"We have to save two points for advanced meditation and puppetry, just in case they are needed."

Ryan thought about it seriously and shook his head slightly.

Of course, this is mainly because his speed in improving his extraordinary combat skills is not slow at all.

Even without adding points, relying on the talent 'Advanced Supernatural Comprehension', it can reach level 9 in two days at most.

On the contrary, the subsequent advanced meditation methods and puppetry will be much slower without the blessing of "advanced extraordinary comprehension".

Ryan looked at the effect of Advanced Supernatural Enlightenment (Passive) again.

".Weapon Masters are proficient in all kinds of combat skills. The speed of learning any extraordinary combat skills is increased by an additional 200%."

"As I remembered correctly, it was specified as combat skills, not witchcraft." Ryan nodded.

After making up his mind, the hardened gold bar in Ryan's hand instantly transformed into a cane more than one meter long.

Then, he began to practice the extraordinary combat skill 'Roquedilo's Guardian Cane'.

Half an hour later.

When Anna, Neoro, Remiel and their companions rode their horses to the vicinity of Count Habsburg's mansion, they found that a large group of city guards were coming in and out of the gate of the mansion, and they seemed to be busy with something.

Moreover, there was a faint fishy smell wafting from the mansion.

"Hey, do you smell anything?" Anna asked in confusion, her nose twitching slightly.

"This is the smell of rotting blood. Could an attack have already happened?" Vieri previously worked in the military and had extensive combat experience. He reacted immediately and said.

"Huh?" Everyone's eyes fell on Vieri.

"But... it doesn't seem to smell like human blood." Seeing everyone's gaze, Vieri couldn't help but quickly explain.

"Don't guess, we'll know if we go over and take a look." Ne'oro said with a serious face.

Everyone couldn't help but look worried, and rode their horses towards Count Habsburg's mansion.

But as soon as they arrived at the main entrance, everyone's faces were filled with horror, their eyes widened in a daze!
Because at this time, through the open door, they could clearly see that in the garden in the front yard of the mansion, there was a huge monster that seemed to be dismembered!
The source of the fishy smell just now was right here.

A large amount of dark red blood had merged with the soil of the garden, and the guards were cleaning and filling the holes.

Although the head of the legendary land snake had been cut off, the exposed long snake-like body could still be recognized, and it was vaguely a giant snake.

"This is a legendary farming snake!"

"Has he been killed?"

"Who has such strong strength!" Remiel, who came to assist from the Rock Team, exclaimed.

"Who else could it be? It's most likely Captain Ryan." After being shocked, Neoro came to his senses, patted Remiel's shoulder and said with a smile.

Seeing this scene, he felt relieved.

"That's right. Lord Ryan's strength cannot be judged by common sense." Remiel was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said.

Remiel wanted to refute, but when he thought about how Ryan was able to kill the High Priest of the Blood Curse Naga, it seemed reasonable for him to kill a legendary land snake this time.

"Will Ryan be hurt?" Anna suddenly thought of a question and murmured softly.

"Well." Everyone looked at each other and found that it was difficult to answer the question.

After all, the legendary farming snake is not so easy to deal with. It is likely that the captain must have paid some price, such as suffering some minor injuries or something.

But they all knew about the close relationship between Anna and Ryan. Now saying that the captain was injured seemed as if they had no confidence in their captain. In addition, it would also make Anna worried.

As a follower of Ryan, Vieri didn't think too much about it. He immediately stopped a guard and asked, "There was a fight here yesterday. Was Captain Ryan injured?"

Since Vieri and his men were all dressed as knights and had extraordinary aura, even though the guards were stopped, their attitude was not bad.

Moreover, when Vieri called Rennes the captain, he immediately became more respectful, smiled, and said:
"My lords, you are friends of Lord Ryan, right? Lord Ryan is fine."

Hearing this, Anna and everyone else couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"However, Lord Ryan fought two battles in a row yesterday, so he should still be resting." The guard thought for a moment and added.

"Two battles?" Everyone looked at each other in surprise.

They came one night late and missed two battles?

So, everyone surrounded the guard and asked him detailed questions. Soon, they understood the whole story.

“Two more legendary masters?” Anna’s beautiful eyes fluttered, her mind a little confused.

Could it be that the Empire's definition of a legendary warrior is different from that of the Druid's Ring?

Killing almost three legends in one night, this is too exaggerated!
Why do I feel like the gap between me and Ryan is getting bigger after I became a full-fledged druid?
"Hiss~ Killing two legendary warriors and a legendary land snake in succession, the captain is really amazing!" Neolo, the knowledgeable heir of the marquis, was also amazed!
"The captain is so awesome!" Angus' eyes widened when he heard this!
"Has Lord Ryan's strength improved to this level?" Remiel was also stunned.

“This is too exaggerated.” Evelin’s beautiful eyes widened, her mouth slightly opened, and she looked shocked.

At this time, Ryan, who was in the training room, noticed the movement at the door through the window.

"Yes, I came at the right time."

Seeing the team members arrive, Ryan couldn't help but smile.

Opening the door to the training room, Ryan walked over to greet him.

But soon, after some greetings and explanations, the group was taken to the training room by Ryan.

A few minutes later.

In the center of the training room, Vieri quickly took a step forward, and the sword in his hand drew a silver arc like lightning, slashing down heavily at Ryan from top to bottom!

Facing Vieri's attack, Ryan raised his cane calmly!
"clang!"

The harsh sound of gold and iron clashing sounded.

Ryan's cane firmly blocked the opponent's sword attack.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!"

The two men fought faster and faster, and soon the sound of weapons clashing could be heard constantly.

"clang!!"

The two men exchanged weapons again and then separated.

"Huchi~huchi~"

Vieri's chest was heaving, he was panting like a cow, and sweat was pouring down his forehead.

"It's no use, captain!" Vieri waved his hand tiredly.

Although Vieri activated the "Limit Breaking" and used secret techniques, he was still no match for his captain.

At the same time, in the case of high burst, although it only takes a few minutes, it consumes a lot of physical energy. Even a great knight cannot use his secret skills all the time, so he runs out of energy and is quickly defeated.

Seeing that Vieri was defeated due to lack of strength, Anna, Neolo, Evelyn and others all exchanged glances, knowing that Ryan was deliberately letting him win. Didn't they see that their captain didn't use any other weapons, but only a wizard's most common walking stick.

"Captain, it's my turn."

"Bang, bang!" Angus's sword and shield collided, and he stepped forward excitedly.

Angus adjusted his mentality well to be able to play against his own captain.

That's what he thought.

A captain who can kill two cult legends and a legendary beast in one night must possess legendary strength, right?
So, do you know how rare it is to have a legendary warrior from the empire come and practice combat skills with you?

Win or lose?

Is this something to consider?

The most important thing is to seize every minute and cherish this precious training time!
Then, Angus, full of fighting spirit, came on the field.
Ten minutes later, Angus, who was panting, was also exhausted!

“Captain, let me take over!” Seeing this, the red-haired beauty Evelyn also looked eager to try.

Evelin could naturally tell that her captain seemed to be practicing with the cane.

This opportunity is quite rare.

You have to know that if Ryan uses weapons such as greatsword and warhammer, she, as a top knight, will hardly be qualified to fight him.

This is why the two great knights, Angus and Vieri, usually practice with Ryan most frequently.

But if our captain uses a cane, it is barely possible.

Ryan smiled, nodded, and said, "Of course."

At the same time, he glanced at the system prompt:
[Your skill Rockdilo's Guardian Staff is upgraded, experience value +621]

(Note: The above skill experience has been increased by 100% by the exclusive talent 'Advanced Supernatural Enlightenment'.)
[You have experienced a battle, and the weapon master (legendary) experience value +41]

When Ryan saw that Rockdilo's guardian staff had been upgraded to level 5 (1233/2000), his eyes immediately lit up!
After only two sparring matches, we have already made half of the progress.

This speed is quite good!
Sure enough, practicing with someone is more effective.

When Evelin stood in the center of the field and was about to launch an attack, suddenly, the door of the training room was opened again, and a tall, slender, and heroic girl walked in.

The person who came was naturally Claire!

At first sight, she was attracted by the red-haired beauty Evelyn, who was standing in the middle of the venue and was about to compete with Ryan.

Ok?
It seems that he is also a descendant of nobility?
So pretty.

A player from Rennes? Or a friend?

As for the other one, Claire glanced at Anna, then quickly focused her attention on Evelin.

Although that girl is also young and beautiful, with the temperament of a girl next door, her appearance is obviously not as good as the red-haired girl in front of her.

The feelings between women seem to have their own independent system.

Evelin naturally felt Claire's scrutiny and gaze.

At this moment, Evelin was also confused!

"Claire, you're here! Come, let me introduce you." Ryan greeted with a smile.

"This is Wizard Remire, the deputy captain of the Rock Squad."

"This is the eldest daughter of Count Habsburg and the first heir of the Habsburg family, Knight Claire."

"Who is this"

"This is Evelyn, also one of my team members."

"Evelyn, hello, you are so beautiful." Claire said slowly, looking at Evelyn with a smile on her face.

"Ms. Claire, you are truly beautiful."

Evelin was naturally aware of Claire’s extra attention.

But at this moment, she could only smile bitterly in her heart.

After all, she couldn't say, Miss Claire, you got the wrong person.

You should focus on Miss Anna, not me! ——
at the same time.

Münster airship landing point.

As the airship slowly came to a stop, several elite men dressed as mercenaries, led by a man in black wizard robes, got off the airship.

This group of people was Sam and his group.

The few of them seemed to be discussing something as they walked.

It turned out that not long ago, Garcia received a reply from the 'Earth Dragon Knight' Hansal - 'You can accept it, but the price will be doubled'.

"Captain, 'Earth Dragon Knight' Hansal is taking advantage of us!" the bald strong man said in a muffled voice.

"Yeah, the price is double! Why doesn't he just go and grab it!" another team member said angrily.

"Indeed. Why not invite someone else?"

However, Sam, the leader, thought for a while, then turned to the long-legged woman with her back hunched and said:
"Garcia, I agree, but there is a condition. Let Hansal come as soon as possible. Tell him that if he doesn't come within three days, this mission invitation will be invalid."

"Okay, Captain." Garcia nodded and said.

"Captain." A team member next to him obviously wanted to say something.

Sam waved his hand and said unhappily, "If Hansal doesn't come, who will lead the other party away?"

"This"

They looked at each other and stopped talking immediately.

"As long as Hansal can complete the work assigned to him, even if he pays three times the price, it will only be a small part compared to our profits."

"However, if we hire someone who is not strong enough to save money and fails to meet expectations, resulting in mission failure, then our losses will be much greater!"

After a while, the group took a carriage and arrived at the luxurious mansion located in the trade district.

After getting off the bus, they quickly filed in.

When Sam entered the reception room, a shorter man dressed as a servant knocked on the door and walked in quickly.

Sam glanced at the other man and asked casually, "Did anything happen in the two days we were away?"

The man dressed as a butler in front of him was a spy he had arranged.

The spy bowed respectfully and reported, "Master Sam, not long after you and the others left, Viscount Fabien came here with a tall young man."

"By the way, judging from the title of Viscount Fabien, this young man seems to be Viscount Ryan."

"Ok?"

Hearing the word 'Ryan', everyone in the reception room was stunned.

Then, several people looked relieved and started laughing.

"Captain, could it be that Ryan knew the reputation of our Sam's Group, so Tofabien came to us to resolve the misunderstanding?" The bald strong man touched his head and couldn't help laughing.

"That's probably the case. I guess Ryan probably learned about our origins from Fabien." Another person nodded in agreement.

"That's right. If I knew that the Duke of the Empire was standing behind my opponent, I would probably choose peace." Another team member seemed to have put himself in the opponent's shoes and nodded, agreeing.

Only Garcia and Sam remained silent.

Sam frowned slightly and continued to ask the spy, "What about Dixon? Did they bring Dixon with them?"

The spy shook his head without hesitation and said, "Master Sam, I didn't see Master Dixon among the people traveling with Viscount Fabien."

Sam nodded, then turned to Garcia and said:
"Something's wrong, Garcia. I'll have to trouble you to investigate it right away."

"Okay, Captain."

Garcia just bowed slightly and left quickly.

The remaining three team members, led by the bald man, looked at each other in bewilderment, and then the bald man asked in confusion:
"Boss, you mean that the other party is not here to negotiate?"

"It's not clear yet, but if it were me, if I were here to clarify the misunderstanding, I would bring Dixon with me instead of continuing to detain Dixon." Sam said with a solemn expression, shaking his head.

After hearing what Sam said, several people immediately reacted. Yes, if he came to surrender, Deeks would definitely not be brought along. There is no reason to keep him detained!
For a moment, there was silence in the reception room!
In less than an hour, Garcia came back, but she didn't look very good.

"Captain, Dixon is still being held in the Sword Bearers Munster branch and has not been released."

"Also, this Ryan left Munster two days ago with the elf girl. Their destination is unknown. I am still asking people about it."

"What, he left? Did he know our plan?" someone exclaimed.

"Impossible, only a few of us know about this plan." The bald man shook his head and said.

"Fuck! It's bad! We just promised 'Earth Dragon Knight' Hansal to pay twice the price and ask him to hurry over, but now the elf girl is gone."

The other man slapped his thigh hard and exclaimed.

"This"

A few people looked at each other and kept silent.

After all, the decision to offer twice the price to get 'Earth Dragon Knight' Hansal to come as soon as possible was made by their own leader himself.

However, a few of them would glance at their leader Sam from time to time, as if waiting for him to make a decision.

After hearing the two pieces of bad news, Sam frowned, thought for a while, and asked, "Garcia, have you asked Fabien?"

"At that time, he came here with Ryan. Didn't he know why Ryan came to see us?"

"I asked, but that old fox knew nothing. He said that Ryan came to his house that day and asked him to help introduce him to someone. He knew nothing about Ryan's purpose." Garcia shook his head helplessly.

At this time, a small gray bird flew in, chirping, and landed on Garcia's shoulder.

"Eh? Sir, the news has arrived, quite quickly."

Garcia unfolded a piece of paper tied to the bird's claws and read quickly: "Ryan is going to Meister to carry out a mission and is expected to return to Munster in a few days."

"Fortunately, it seems that the other party doesn't know our plan yet."

“That double amount of money was not wasted!”
