Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

"I understand, go ahead and get busy."

"Okay, Master"

The maid nodded and walked into the guild.

Chu Ming walked out of the training hall and soon saw Crono sitting in the guild hall, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and elegantly sipping black tea.

It was supposed to be a very elegant scene, but the atmosphere was ruined by the man wearing a luxurious mage robe and a nondescript and ferocious armor.

There were not many people coming and going in the guild hall today. Many knights were affected by the spreading darkness and left the city of Sauron.

Of course, there are also quite a few knights who think this is a good opportunity to hone their strength as knights. They have accepted the cleanup missions issued by the Knight Tribunal and entered the dark land. Therefore, there are fewer knights in the guild than before. On many.

As soon as Crono put down the white porcelain tea cup, he saw Chu Ming, who was wearing a knight's uniform, walking towards him. The man stood up and happily gave Chu Ming a hug.

"Ren, long time no see."

Chu Ming patted the man on the shoulder and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for only a year, how come you have become so enthusiastic?"

Crono laughed and said, "I have some good news to tell you. I achieved an epic breakthrough a few months ago."

"epic?!"

Before Chu Ming could react, the mercenary knights walking around heard Crono's words, and their hearts were suddenly shaken, and they all cast their gazes over.

"Oh my god, Lord Ren's friend turns out to be an epic."

"That's awesome."

"What a... What a young epic."

Everyone was whispering, Crono was very satisfied with their reaction and smiled proudly.

"Congratulations."

Chu Ming smiled and waved to him, "Let the dwarf knight follow him in, and we'll talk after we go in."

Crono nodded. Although he enjoyed the gazes of the knights focusing on him, there were some important things that couldn't be said in such a crowded environment. For example, their carriage was loaded with more than forty pairs of armors. Expensive and rare magic pattern armor and long sword.

After he whispered a few instructions to the dwarf knights, the knights moved box after box of crates from the carriage and followed Chu Ming and the others to the training hall.

The knights of the Burning Knights have not started training yet, they are sitting on the wooden floor and resting.

After seeing Chu Ming coming in with a group of dwarf knights carrying boxes, the knights cast curious eyes over.

Crono glanced at the knights casually. He was about to look away when suddenly he felt something was wrong in his heart.

"No, the smell of these guys..."

The man's deep and magical eyes fell on the knights, and everyone suddenly felt a heavy breath rushing towards their faces, pressing them like a boulder and unable to move.

After a few seconds, Crono finally looked away and looked at Chu Ming. He was surprised: "How come it's only been a year since we last met? The knights of your order have already broken through to the deep blue level."

He came back from the Violet King City with Chu Ming. Chu Ming conquered the knights in the old city and watched the whole process of cultivating the knights on the way back. Moreover, he was still with the knights in Beltram last year. The knight met.

Originally, he thought that Chu Ming had spent more than two years cultivating the knights from the green level to the blue level. Unexpectedly, it had only been more than a year. The entire knights had become stronger. The strength has actually improved to a higher level again.

If we continue at this pace, it seems that Chu Ming's original promise of building an epic knights will be fulfilled soon.

Originally, he came to Clinton Kingdom with the dwarf knights just to show off to Chu Ming that he had broken through the epic. Now it was better, he became the one being shown off.

When he thought of this, the surprised expression on Crono's face turned bitter.

Chu Ming smiled and said: "Thanks to the diligent training of the knights, we have achieved today's achievements."

Hearing this, the knights expressed gratitude: "It is the leader's selfless teaching that has brought us to where we are today."

Crono waved his hand, "Okay, stop complimenting each other. Ren, you should first see if these armors are what you want."

After the man finished speaking, the dwarf knights looked at each other and opened the wooden boards of the wooden crate with their hands, revealing the black and silver armor with the texture of meteorite and the ordinary-looking steel sword inside.

Crono said proudly: "Do you still remember what I told you about the material of our forbidden demon armor?"

Chu Ming nodded, "Yap Uzi steel, the top-grade magic pattern armor casting steel from the Kingdom of Yap, is forged by Yap's armor forger using a special formula and process. It is not only extremely hard, but also has excellent conductivity. Magical nature and magical memory.”

"Why do you suddenly ask this? Are these new demon-forbidden armors also made of Yapwutz steel?"

"Forehead……"

Crono was choked by Chu Ming's words. He coughed a few times and said, "Of course not. Yapwutz steel is so precious. Our family can find Yapwuzi steel ingots to make two pairs of demon-forbidden armors." It’s already very reluctant, there’s nothing extra at all.”

"However, although the steel material of the new forbidden magic armor is not Yap Utz steel, it is also a kind of magic pattern armor casting steel from the Yap Kingdom, called Yap secondary Utz steel."

"The characteristics of Yap Secondary Uzi are the same as Yap Uzi steel, except that the hardness, magic conductivity and magic memory are much weaker than Yap Uzi steel."

Crono laughed dryly and said: "For the sake of economy, Master Sidi and I have decided to use it as a new material for the magic-forbidden armor."

"But other than that, there isn't much difference between the production process of the new Forbidden Demon Armor and the two pairs we have."

The man's tone was a little uneasy, "Ren, why don't you give it a try and see if it can satisfy your wishes."

Chu Ming did not go to check the armor immediately, but patted Crono on the shoulder and thanked him: "I believe in the decision of you and Master Sidi."

Crono smiled and scratched his head.

Chu Ming turned his attention back to the armor lying in the wooden crate, covered by withered grass. He easily lifted out the heavy breastplate with one hand and observed it carefully.

In terms of the appearance of the armor, there are only some subtle differences between the newly made Forbidden Demon Armor and Chu Ming's Forbidden Demon Armor. The silver-black steel is much darker than Chu Ming's set, and the demon patterns flowing on it exude The power that came out seemed a little weak in Chu Ming's opinion.

[Forbidden Demon Armor]

[Quality: Purple☆]

[Skills: Elemental resistance, solid protection, magic pattern repair]

[Remarks: The armor is extremely hard and has excellent magic-repelling and repairing abilities. 】

Before Chu Ming's set of Forbidden Demon Armor received Luticia's blessing from the earth, its quality level was at Epic Two Star.

Although this new set of forbidden magic armor is much worse than the original one, it is still at the epic level and has all the functions it should have, but its performance is much weaker.

However, this set of armor is completely sufficient for the knights of the Knights. Chu Ming initially expected the quality of the new Forbidden Demon Armor to be dark blue, but he did not expect that Crono and Master Sidi would bring him such a big surprise.

He nodded with satisfaction, put down the forbidden magic armor, and looked at the standard long sword in another box.

"What are these long swords?"

Crono picked up a long sword from the crate, waved it a few times, and explained: "Didn't you tell me before that you wanted to create a long sword for knights that can transmit and enhance spiritual power?"

"These long swords were made by Master Sidi after selecting many materials."

As he spoke, Crono said with a strange expression: "Master Sidi said that he has never tried to use spiritual materials to make long swords before, because generally only mages would ask for this, and all they make are staffs."

"These long swords were made after he failed several times. He himself is not very satisfied with the quality of the long swords. Can you see if they fit?"

Crono handed the long sword to Chu Ming, and Chu Ming held it in his hand and weighed it.

【Stainless Steel Long Sword】

[Quality: Dark Blue]

[Skill: Mental Ripple]

[Remarks: Can increase mental strength]

Just like the unremarkable appearance of this long sword, its quality and ability are relatively average. You can see why Master Sidi is dissatisfied.

Chu Ming swung the long sword. The weight of the sword was too light for him. The epic knight looked down on this kind of long sword, but it was enough for the knights of the Knights who were only at the dark blue level.

Moreover, the characteristics of this long sword are particularly suitable for the Secret Technique of the Fierce Sun. It can increase the power released by Burning Will, making it a good weapon.

He put the long sword away and put it back into the wooden box. "The quality of these long swords is indeed low, but they are just right for them to use. Crono, thank Master Sidi for me when you get back."

Crono rubbed his hands and said impatiently: "Ignore Master Sidi for now. Let the knights try it out quickly. Let me see what the dark blue level knights look like with these equipment."

Chu Ming nodded and shouted to the knights: "Gather!"

Hearing Chu Ming's call, the knights who had been waiting for a long time quickly formed a neat formation in front of Chu Ming.

Chu Ming picked up the Forbidden Demon Armor and the long sword, "These equipment are a reward for your hard training. I hope you will continue to work hard."

"Yes, Captain."

The knights stared passionately at the demon-forbidden armor and stainless steel sword in Chu Ming's hands, and their bodies were a little ready to move.

"I will distribute the armor and swords now, so you can try them on."

Chu Ming took the equipment from the dwarf knights and placed them in the hands of the excited knights one by one.

After taking the equipment, they ran to the courtyard, preparing to change into clean clothes and put on new equipment.

After all the equipment was distributed, he and Crono waited for a while, and the knights with new equipment returned to the training hall one after another.

Against the backdrop of the silver-black armor, the knights' brows had a somewhat chilling air. The knights were a little excited, as if they had gotten a new toy, and they kept stroking and moving the armor on their bodies.

When all the knights arrived, black suddenly occupied half of Chu Ming's field of vision. The knights looked at him one after another. A strange mental wave came, and he couldn't help but feel dazed.

【Burning Knights】

[Quality: Purple☆]

[Skills: Burning Will, Elemental Resistance]

"The quality is so epic..."

Chu Ming came back to his senses and glanced at the knights. He sighed and said to them: "Get used to your strength and new equipment these days. In a few days, I will take you into the dark place deep in the Great Plains. Experience it and remember to be prepared.”

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and they looked eager to try.

"Let's disband today and have a good rest. Don't let me see anyone still training in the training hall."

"Thank you, captain."

After the knights thanked them, they left the training hall in small groups with happy smiles on their faces, talking and laughing.

After Chu Ming ordered his servants to settle down the dwarf knight who came with Cronuo, he and Crono walked inside.

Crono said mysteriously: "Do you know what you saw on the road before coming here?"

Chu Ming touched his chin, "Dark creature?"

Such a large dark land is located near the main road of Sauron's city. Crono should have seen it when he passed by.

Crono waved his hand, "The dark creatures are not important. What I want to talk about is the matter of King Clinton City."

Chu Ming was stunned for a moment, "I remember that there was no royal city in the route from the Kingdom of Reran to the City of Sauron."

Crono coughed lightly, "I am the first to come to Clinton Kingdom, and I want to see the royal city."

As he spoke, his tone became excited, "Then I saw something amazing."

"It is said that he was executed. Have you seen it?"

Chu Ming's mind was moved, "Tell me carefully, what is the identity of the legend?"

Crono shook his head and said: "I only heard the people around me calling names like queen and general. I didn't know their names. There were three legends on the execution platform. I saw there were still people in the audience. There were dozens of people tied up hand and foot, lining up to take the stage."

"I remember that the executioners on the stage were four legendary mages. They wore different wizard attires. They seemed to be from other kingdoms."

"These legendary mages continued to cast spells and bombarded them with spells for ten days and ten nights before they killed the three legends who were executed. During those few days, the whole city was not peaceful. I heard that during that time there was another Many people who collaborated with these three legends were picked out and then mercilessly killed on the streets.”

Crono shook his head and said in wonder: "I don't know what crimes these guys have committed."

"Queen, General..."

Chu Ming fell into deep thought. If it was true as Crono said, the Clinton royal family was seriously infiltrated by the evil god, no wonder they would take such thunderous measures.

He invited Crono to sit on a seat in the courtyard garden, "Was this matter over when you left the royal city?"

Crono was not sure: "The movement was indeed quieter in the next few days. Some legends have already left the royal city. The matter should have been resolved."

Chu Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the matter was resolved. However, does the legend leaving the royal city mean that Pedro and the others will return to the City of Sauron? If this is really the case, they will be in big trouble.

He asked: "Do you know the whereabouts of those legends?"

Crono shook his head and said: "I can't detect the legendary trends, and I am still a foreigner. What if I am misunderstood if I rashly investigate."

"But the destinations of those legends seem to be different, ranging from south to north, east and west."

Crono paused and suddenly realized something, "If you ask this, could it be that there is a legend coming to the city of Sauron?"

Chu Ming nodded helplessly, "According to what you said, it is only a matter of time before the legend returns to the city of Sauron. By then, the entire city will be temporarily controlled by the royal family."

"It seems I have to hide in advance."

Crono asked curiously: "Do you have any grudge against those legends?"

"I can't say I have any grudges. It's just that a few legends pay special attention to me."

Chu Ming said, telling Crono about Agnes's identity and their contact.

Crono laughed and said, "I asked you what are you afraid of, but it turns out it's this."

"Although I don't know if there was ever a legendary mage named Aglis in the Mages' Conference, but whether they are mages who left the Mages' Conference or mages from other kingdoms, they are all very aware of the intimidating power of the Mages' Conference. I won’t attack a mage from the Violet Kingdom easily.”

"Ms. Agnes used to be a member of the Mages' Conference, so she must know better than me."

Crono rolled his eyes and whispered: "I suspect that she may have gotten the news about your mage talent somewhere, so she pays so much attention to you. Maybe it's a good thing."

"If you can get one or two magic items from the legend, it will be a big profit."

Chu Ming felt a little calmer and said with a smile: "Maybe I think too much."

The two continued chatting for a while, and Chu Ming suggested: "Since you finally came here, I will take you to visit the city."

Crono slapped Chu Ming on the shoulder, "I was waiting for your words, let's go quickly."

Chu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said: "Why are you in such a hurry? Is it possible that you will go back after staying here for a few days?"

Crono shook his finger and said proudly: "You guessed it wrong now. I'm not here for fun. I'm here to seek refuge with you. I won't leave for a while."

Chu Ming's face became strange, "If you don't inherit the family business in Beltram, why do you come to me to seek refuge?"

"Hey, it's fun to hang out with you. I'm the only epic mage in my family. I don't even have anyone to chat with. I'm bored to death."

"Anyway, I still have two hundred years to live, so why not go out more and see the world."

Chu Ming was stunned. He suddenly remembered that Cronuo was only in his fifties now and was still considered a young man among epic transcendental beings. It was normal for him to have such thoughts.

He smiled and said: "Then you may be disappointed. The number of mages in Sauron's City is also pitiful, and there are no epic mages."

He took Crono outside the guild and stood on the street. Almost all the extraordinary people walking on the road were knights.

Crono said mischievously: "Didn't you say that the legendary mage Ms. Agnes will come back? I'll pay her a visit then. Maybe I can gain something."

Chu Ming sighed: "Good brother, you first help me explore the outlet of Agris, and I will hide if I want to."

Crono has the identity of a foreigner and a violet mage. No matter what happened, Agnes would probably not take action against Crono.

Crono said proudly: "Don't worry, just wait and see."

…

Three days later, Agnes returned to the city of Sauron as Crono said, but she was the only one who came back this time. Pedro and another legend were still missing.

Not long after Agnes came back, Crono visited the deliberations alone early in the morning.

Chu Ming did not wait for news about Crono in the guild. Today he would lead the knights into the dark land for training.
