Chapter 158 A Letter

Richard directly picked up an unopened practice sword from the weapon rack on the side, then walked straight to the center of the field, faced his brother Levi, and performed the starting posture of Cornell's swordsmanship.

Brother Li Wei's face was straightened and he said seriously: "Richard, you have to be careful."

Richard nodded and said: "Brother, don't worry, you just attack with all your strength, don't hold back."

I saw my brother Li Wei swinging the two-handed sword in his hand as fast as the wind and with the momentum of a rainbow, and suddenly slashed towards Richard.

This momentum is completely different from what Richard saw a year ago, because his brother Li Wei had been promoted to an official knight half a year ago, and his strength has been greatly improved.

But compared to Richard, Ren Ran.

"Cang!!!" A harsh sound of gold and iron clashing came.

I saw Richard raising his sword with one hand to block his brother Li Wei's two-handed sword. Sparks suddenly flew out. It was obvious that his brother Li Wei's blow was extremely powerful.

But Richard was still able to firmly resist it with one hand and easily deflect it away.

With a quick swing of the sword, the tip of the practice sword was pointed directly at his brother Levi's throat.

The old baron and Rollins Knight, who were originally looking forward to a fight between dragons and tigers, couldn't help looking at each other for a while.

this.

They knew that Richard had embarked on the path of a wizard, but shouldn't the wizard be good at witchcraft? How could he be so good at swordsmanship? In terms of strength, Richard's strength far exceeded the physical fitness of Li Wei, a junior knight.

This was so unbelievable to them.

The numerous guards around were also stunned. They who were still whispering immediately fell silent.

Brother Li Wei was also stunned. He never expected that he would lose in one move.

I have already become an official knight!

So, he immediately said: "I was not careful enough just now, Richard, do it again!"

This time, Li Wei was more serious,

"Clang clang clang!"

But after a quick exchange of blows, the results were the same.

Richard still used a simple sword, knocking away his brother's two-handed sword, and then pointed the tip of the sword at his brother's throat.

Although the guards' swordsmanship was shallow, a fool could now see that Master Richard's swordsmanship far surpassed that of his brother Li Wei.

Moreover, judging from this situation, it is estimated that the old baron is no match for Young Master Richard.

Because when Master Li Wei competed with the old baron, although he was defeated, he still fought vigorously, unlike when he competed with Master Richard, who lost in one second!

"Good boy! I thought that after you became a wizard's apprentice, your swordsmanship would be lost."

"I thought that if you could maintain your original level, you would be good, but I didn't expect that you would become so powerful!"

After two quick fights, Levi knew immediately that he was no longer a match for his younger brother even in swordsmanship, the area in which knights were best at.

I thought that my attainments in swordsmanship would gradually surpass that of my younger brother who practiced witchcraft, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be even bigger.

"Brother, you have made great progress, it's just that I'm progressing faster." Richard smiled slightly and patted his brother on the shoulder.

While the brothers were chatting, Stephana slowly walked over and said with a smile: "Master, do you want me to compete with you?"

As soon as Stephana said this, the eyes of everyone around her lit up. Could it be that...

"You are the one who is naughty!" Richard was speechless for a while, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded.

Stephana's strength is about the same as hers, so a test would be a good boost for her. Secondly, she can also verify one thing.

However, in order to avoid being too shocking, Richard decided to practice alone with Stephana in the Silver Pine Forest.

"Well, okay, but we have to change the place. Let's go to the Silver Pine Forest." Richard said.

Stephana's eyes lit up and she understood something immediately.

"Ah! Why not here?" Brother Levi asked doubtfully.

"I'm afraid it will damage the training ground. When we compete, we will use witchcraft, which is relatively more powerful." Richard casually found a reason and said.

In fact, Richard mainly didn't want Stephana to be exposed in her blade-arm form after she transformed.

After all, this picture is still a bit too scary in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Can I go and watch?" Brother Levi asked curiously.

Richard looked at his father. After seeing his father nod, he nodded and said, "Brother, come together."

In the disappointed eyes of all the guards, Richard took Stephana towards the Silver Pine Forest.

To his surprise, in addition to his brother Levi, his father also followed closely with the Rollins Knight.

If his father wants to see it, Richard will naturally not object.

"Master, then I'm going to start attacking." Stephana said eagerly.

After a day of exploring, she became more and more familiar with this body.

Stephana felt as if her soul was slowly merging with this body, and after a while, they would be indistinguishable from each other.

His own strength has also become stronger with the integration process.

One of the ways to speed up this process is to fight. She felt that whenever she entered a fighting state, her soul and body would merge faster.

For example, if the fusion speed is 1 during daily operations, then during combat, the fusion speed can reach 3, or even 4 or even higher.

"Come on." Richard nodded slightly.

For Stephana, it is obvious that she cannot be as relaxed as she was with her brother just now.

After all, the opponent's strength has reached the level of a top-notch third-level wizard apprentice. If you include Spider Woman's super dark element resistance, he is even more difficult to deal with than a third-level wizard apprentice.

Without summoning hatred, Richard basically had to go all out to ensure victory.

"Uh-huh!"

I saw a pair of Stephana's white arms, which instantly turned into dark blade arms. The blade exuded a cold light, and it was obvious at a glance that it was extremely sharp.

"Hiss!" Just by this transformation, the three people watching the battle suddenly took a breath of cold air.

Brother Li Wei’s eyes almost popped out!

When he was in the study last night, ever since he learned that Stephana was the legitimate daughter of Marquis Knight, he still had some thoughts in his heart to pursue her.

I just don’t know what the relationship between Stephana and her brother is, so I can only hide it secretly in my heart. I thought I could slowly understand it over the past few days.

But now that I saw this scene in front of me, all the charming thoughts I had before suddenly disappeared!

Richard also immediately applied skeleton armor and dark element shield to himself, controlled the mimic wrist guard to transform into an arm shield, and pulled out the ice guardian, looking ready.

"Sure enough, wizards are all monsters, not normal people." His brother Levi murmured when he saw his younger brother who was dressed in white bone armor with sharp bone spurs emerging from many important positions in the bone armor.

I saw Stephana kicking her right foot, the ground suddenly shook, and a deep depression was created in an instant, and Stephana's whole body, like an arrow from the string, shot straight at Richard.

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

A series of sword clashes were heard.

Both Richard and Stephana were extremely fast, and their attack speed was even faster. In the eyes of the three people watching, if the figures could be seen clearly, then the shadows of the rapidly waving blade arms and swords could not be seen at all. The trajectory is unclear.

This made the three people watching suddenly shocked!

This speed can only be reached by a great knight.

The old baron, who has always been calm, has the deepest experience. He has extremely rich combat experience, and he also has the strength of an intermediate knight. He knows that the attack speed of the two people in front of him must surpass that of the senior knights, and even the ordinary knights cannot compare.

"Cang!" Richard used his arm shield to block Stephana several meters away.

"The warm-up is over, I'm going to exert my strength! Stephanna, get ready." Richard said calmly.

Stephana's face no longer smiled at this time, but began to become extremely serious. At the same time, she immediately used the talent of witchcraft Shadow Swiftness on herself.

And Richard used the shadow dance move.

In an instant, the speed of the two people nearly doubled. In the silver pine forest with mottled tree shadows, they were like butterflies flying through flowers. Once the two people met, a dazzling spark would inevitably erupt.

"Ding!"

"clang!"

"Crack!!"

Stephana was sent flying several meters and broke a pine tree as big as the mouth of a bowl.

Only then did brother Li Wei realize how perverted his brother was!

He is a formal knight, but he can't even see his brother clearly.

"Stephanna, try summoning your Man-Faced Demon Spider." Richard stopped his attack and reminded.

"As you command, Master!"

Stephana stood up, took out a crystal ball from her arms, and chanted a spell softly. After a few seconds, the crystal ball projected an inverse pentagram array with a diameter of several meters.

After a burst of dazzling green light, a human-faced demon spider as big as a bull appeared in front of everyone.

The three people suddenly felt nervous. The three people who had just experienced the wave of monsters still retained their instinctive vigilance against monsters.

With the cooperation of the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Stephana was on par with Richard in a short period of time.

More than ten seconds later.

"Shadow's Grasp!"

The big hand of dark elements appeared out of thin air and overturned the Man-Faced Demon Spider. Richard immediately seized the opportunity and struck Stephana to the ground with another sword strike.

Just when Stephana was about to give in, she heard Richard say: "Stephana, try the combination technique!"

Stephana was stunned for a moment, then she felt happy again and asked: "Master, now that the Man-Faced Demon Spider is a walking corpse, can we still be able to fuse with each other?"

"You'll know if you try it."

In fact, Richard was already sure that he had 100% guaranteed the physical activity of the Human-Faced Demon Spider during its transformation. Logically speaking, there should be no problem in merging with Stephana again.

The only question is whether Stephana's soul can withstand this transformation, which can be regarded as a gift of witchcraft.

When the huge Man-Faced Demon Spider crawled to Stephana's side, Stephana jumped up, jumped on the Man-Faced Demon Spider's back, and began to recite a spell.

In the surprised eyes of the three people watching the battle, Stephana, a pretty girl, actually merged with an extremely ugly monster, turning into a monster with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a spider.

This immediately made his brother Levi's strong impression of Stephana last less than a day and was scattered all over the place like broken glass.

"Master, it can really be done! It really can be done!" Stephana said excitedly, waving two pairs of blade arms from time to time.

One pair of blade arms evolved from a pair of chelicerae of the Man-Faced Demon Spider after being combined.

When the number of blade arms increased by one pair, Stephana's close combat effectiveness more than doubled.

Now being beaten all over the floor, Stephana has turned into Richard.

The entire battle scene was suddenly reversed!

At present, without summoning abomination, Richard can only rely on the terrain of Silver Pine Forest with numerous vegetation and keep fighting, barely maintaining an undefeated situation.

But if you relax even a little bit, you will definitely lose!

However, only about a minute later, the situation changed dramatically.

I saw that Stephana in the combined form suddenly staggered and stopped. It seemed that she was forced to come into contact with the combined state, and she vomited heavily on the side.

The Man-Faced Demon Spider also disappeared instantly and was sent back to the world of the dead.

Richard immediately removed the skeleton armor, put away his weapon, walked to Stephana, and handed her a bottle of primary mental recovery potion.

"Are you okay? Stephanie, drink it and you should feel a lot better." Richard comforted.

"Master. What's going on?" Stephana said while vomiting.

"It should be that your mental strength is insufficient, which means that being in a combined state for a long time will put too much strain on your body and soul." Richard explained.

"Gudong, Gudong." After drinking the primary mental power recovery potion, Stephana's overall condition improved a lot.

Richard reviewed the battle just now and said:

"Your combined strength has surpassed that of a third-level wizard apprentice. If a formal wizard fights you with only his physical body, he may not necessarily be your opponent."

"But obviously, a formal wizard will not fight you hand-to-hand, so your combined strength is above that of an apprentice and below that of a wizard."

At this time, the three people who were watching also came over. Brother Levi's eyes when he looked at Stephana had completely changed. There was no longer any look of admiration, but a feeling of avoiding her like a snake.

The old baron patted Richard on the shoulder and said, "The battle between you two opened our eyes!"

Then he turned to Levi and Rollins Knight and said, "You also know now why wizards are the most powerful force in the world."

For several days in a row, Richard spent his days like this, spending time with his family, taking a walk by the Green Pine Lake with his little maid Serena, and competing with Stepina from time to time.

He rarely enjoyed a relaxing time.

However, his peaceful life was broken by a letter!

A letter encrypted with witchcraft was handed over to Richard by the baron's father.

"It should be Sir Duane. A bone bird just flew into my study with a letter in its mouth." The old baron said.

Richard took it and saw that the complicated patterns represented Du An's unique mark. Du An knew that he was spending time with his family. Obviously, if it was not something particularly important, the other party would not disturb him.

So the content of this letter

He didn't expect that his previous gifts would be rewarded so soon.
