380. Winter hunting

  Back in the dormitory, Surdak placed the shining saber on the writing table.

The last ray of the setting sun at dusk filtered through the window, leaving dim light in the room. Suldak poured a glass of water into his stomach, then sat down on the walnut chair and began to observe the saber in front of him.

The blade of this saber is nearly four feet long, nearly one foot longer than the blade of the Craftsman's Sword. The thorium-plated blade has a slight arc, and the blade is covered with dark dark lines.

From a distance, these dark lines look like a layer of fine scales, but when you get closer, you can see each scale.

 A trace of mana is constantly flowing in the scales on the blade. Surdak was attracted to this shining saber in the trading house precisely because of this trace of mana fluctuation.

But what made Surdak determined to buy this saber was the moment he picked it up. There was an inexplicable power on the sword that absorbed the sacred breath from his body. According to the store clerk, because of the gem base

It was damaged and could not operate the magic pattern array on the blade normally, so the low-light illumination technique on the blade was destined to be unusable.

Surdak bought the saber back mainly because the magic pattern on the blade resonated with the sacred aura on his body. He picked up the saber very carefully and wrapped it around the swordfish.

A suction force suddenly came from the handle of the thin leather belt, which continuously injected the sacred breath from the body into the saber. The blade of the saber actually emitted a faint layer of holy light.

That feeling is very strange. The sacred aura is like water in a pond, flowing smoothly into the dug ditch. The magic patterns on this sword are like ditches, and Surdak is a pond. Those

The holy breath poured into the blade from Surdak, and actually formed a closed loop that continuously circulated inside the blade. There was no need to inject too much power of holy light in the future, and the blade could maintain this brightness.

Looking at the faint sacred light emitting from the blade, Surdak was speechless. He thought to himself that he would buy such an expensive saber just to become a target for archers during night battles.

Suldak was secretly annoyed, as it seemed that the only feature of this shining saber was that after inputting the sacred breath into the blade, it could maintain the holy light on the blade without spending too much effort. This kind of holy light obviously has healing power.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Surdak's mind, he put down the shining saber in his hand, took the Craftsman's Sword hanging on his waist and injected it with sacred breath. As the sacred breath in each node of the body continued to be injected into the Craftsman

sword, but the holy light that lights up on the sword is much dimmer than the shining saber, and it has to be continuously injected.

He discovered that with the blessing of the "Glimmer Illumination Technique" attached to the shining saber, the holy light transmitted into the saber was actually amplified invisibly.

Suldak opened the door to the terrace and shouted to Linna, who lived in the dormitory next door: "Lina, do you want me to help you treat the frostbite on your face..."

The window of the dormitory was suddenly pushed open by the two girls. Lina poked her head out of the window, stared at Suldak standing on the terrace, and readily agreed: "Okay!"

Wearing only cotton pajamas, the two girls ran from the next door dormitory to Suldak's room. The frostbite on Lina's face was not serious. There were only two lumps the size of silver coins on the highest part of her cheek. Such frostbite affected areas would

It becomes extremely itchy, and if you can't help but scratch it, it will leave scars. This kind of frostbite will slowly get better as long as the weather gets warmer. However, if the next winter is a little colder, the frostbite will recur.

Suldak asked Lina to sit on a chair and faced the young girl Lina with a shining saber.

Lina stared at the shining saber in Surdak's hand nervously, and asked him nervously: "Knight Surdak, are you going to treat my injury...?"

"Don't worry, I promise... I won't scratch your face." Suldak waved the shining saber in his hand and assured Lina.

Lina was so frightened that her face turned pale, but she nodded obediently and closed her eyes in front of the shining saber.

As the blade emitted a faint power of holy light, the power of holy light approached Lina's cheek, and the frostbite on her cheek began to visibly swell. Surdak didn't even feel how much holy aura was subsequently exported.

Seeing the frostbite on Lina's face disappearing before her eyes.

 He also planned to test the effect with the Craftsman's Sword, and saw Nedra replacing Lina in the chair.

“Nedra, are you also suffering from frostbite?” Surdak asked Nedra.

Nedra was shy and introverted. She quickly shook her head and whispered: "It's not frostbite..." After saying that, she rolled up the cotton sleeves on her arms and wrapped a thick bandage on her left arm.

After removing the bandage, my arm was swollen like a steamed bun, and the four bloody holes had scabbed over. This injury was obviously caused by being bitten by a wild animal.

“Has the wound been treated?” Many beasts have toxins in their mouths. If not treated properly, there is a high chance that the wound will become infected later.

Before Nedra could speak, Lina, who was sitting next to her, said for her: "I drank a small sip of the antidote on the spot. During that battle, many students were bitten by forest wolves. The accompanying instructor was worried that the wolf's teeth would be contaminated.

We are infected with the virus, so we asked everyone to drink some antidote, but we only brought two bottles of antidote, so each person could only drink a little."

Suldak said to the two girls: "It's okay, the injury is not serious, but because it was bitten by a wolf, there may be scars on the arms."

 Hearing what Surdak said, the girl Nedra's face became obviously much more relaxed.

Subsequently, whether Surdak used the Craftsman's Sword or directly transmitted the power of the Holy Light to his palm, he found that the treatment effect was obviously not as good as using the Shining Saber, and the holy breath in the nodes in the body was consumed quickly.

The two teenage neighbors next door returned to their rooms after simple treatment. Surdak looked at the shining saber in his hand and felt that the shining saber was really worth the money.

 …

 In recent days, Suldak has been squatting in the library whenever he has free time.

He learned from Darcy Christie that the Junior Knight Academy mainly teaches riding skills and basic knight qualities to trainee knights. As for the professional skills such as knight halo, they are knowledge taught by the Advanced Knight Academy and are not available in the Helensa Knight Academy.

Aura courses, but it is said that there should be such books in the college library.

Surdak came to the library so many times, but he didn't find any books on the library bookshelf that introduced the knight's halo. However, he believed that Darcy Christie's words were definitely not groundless, so he kept rummaging around the library and finally got it.

He found three books on the primary aura of knights in the corner of a bookshelf in the library. He stood in front of the bookshelf and looked at the three books on the knight's aura placed side by side in front of him with some speechlessness. He felt deeply.

I thought: It’s normal that I don’t see them usually. They are hidden in the most remote corner of the bookshelf, and there are only three books in front of me: Life Recovery Halo, Defense Halo, and Strength Halo.

 As a shield warrior, Surdak chose the aura of power without hesitation.

 Books on knight auras can only be learned in advanced knight academies, mainly because these advanced skills can only be learned by knights once they have understood the energy in their bodies. They can then use the energy in their bodies to release auras with various effects.

Surdak did not find any books on tactics and fighting spirit related to shield warriors in the library, but he considered that since he could sense the sacred aura in his body, he was destined to give up training as a warrior and instead learn the 'Aura of Power'

For Surdak, this kind of knight skill, releasing the aura of power, is nothing more than bringing the sacred breath into the body to circulate in the body according to a fixed path. It only took him half a day to create a faint cyclone under his feet.

Suldak knew that the aura of power, although very weak, was only because he was not yet very proficient in using the aura.

It's a pity that there are no knight skills that can be learned in the library except riding and aura. The academy requires trainee knights to practice riding at the knight training ground. Knights who graduate from the junior college mainly

Join a heavy cavalry regiment, so that you can at least avoid serving as cannon fodder in an infantry regiment during your military service.

During this period, Suldak also carefully read the book "The Self-Cultivation of the Demon Swordsman" lent to him by Darcy Christie, and finally understood the true meaning of the so-called dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. Take the Demon Swordsman.

He said that he mainly focuses on swordsman training, but he also practices some magic based on the magic elements that the body can perceive. In addition to the four magic elements of wind, fire, water and earth, there are also light and darkness, necromancy spells, etc.

Since Baron Grenfell was pushed to the guillotine, the city of Helensa has been completely calm. The members of the Black Magic Hermitage have hidden in the dark, and the bandit groups in the suburbs of Helensa have also disappeared, except for everyone.

On a cold night, there were still some homeless people freezing to death outside the city. Life in the mountain city seemed to have become much quieter.

 Dash has not had much free time in the past few days, mainly because the friends coming from Bena City need her to entertain them personally.

 …

 In this way, finally on the weekend, the winter hunting that the young nobles held every winter came.

Suldak agreed to Darcy Christie’s participation in the winter hunting event, so he rode the ancient Bolai horse that morning to the scheduled rendezvous point to gather at the Helensa Victory Memorial Square.

This square is located in front of the Christie family castle. When Suldak arrived, at least thirty young nobles gathered in the square.

 On a winter morning, even though the sun is rising, the cold wind is still a bit cold on your face.

Not long after, more magic caravans arrived in the square one after another. Behind those magic caravans, there were actually some docile ponies tied up. It seemed that in addition to the young nobles, this winter organized by Darcy Christie

Many noble ladies also joined the hunt.

Surdak and these young nobles didn't know each other, so they naturally wouldn't get close to each other. He just waited outside, sitting on a bench by the bush wall to comfort his old companions. This ancient Bolai horse followed him back from the plane battlefield.

, but she never left him. He took out a handful of beans from his arms, Gu Bo Laima's warm and moist tongue kept licking the palm of his hand, and rolled the beans into his mouth after a few strokes.

Carl and Tax Officer Byrd came here together. Unexpectedly, Tax Officer Byrd also wanted to participate in the winter hunting activity. After the two of them arrived, people kept saying hello to them. It was obvious that Carl had a wide social circle. Among this group of young people,

Among the nobles, there were few who did not know Karl. Even Tax Collector Byrd frequently greeted him.

A group of guard knights and three magic caravans slowly drove out of Christie's Castle. When the three magic caravans stopped at Helensa Victory Memorial Square, Darcy Christie walked out of the carriage wearing a light leather armor.

Swordsman Leonard and Miss Fanny, who had come all the way from Bena Province, were standing next to Darcy Christie. The three of them were chatting with great interest as they walked.

Seeing Darcy Christie appear, the young nobles waiting in Victory Memorial Square gathered around and greeted Darcy Christie familiarly.

Dacy Christie saw Suldak standing outside the crowd holding his horse from a distance, and nodded to him from a distance.

No one said much after that, and the group left the city of Hilanza in a mighty manner in the face of the rising sun.

Karl, Tax Collector Byrd, Suldak, and Baron Llewellyn were riding horses, following the team chatting and laughing all the way. This could be regarded as Suldak's circle of friends in the city of Helensa.

After listening to Karl's introduction, Surdak learned that Tax Collector Byrd's territory happened to be bordering the hunting area, and the villa he built was also on the edge of the winter hunting area, not far from the gathering place for this winter hunting.

So this time Carl decided to stay for two nights in the Byrd Tax Collector's villa. The Christie family building a residence in the winter hunting ground is considered a big place, but with so many people participating in the winter hunting, the accommodation must be very tight, and there will inevitably be some

The retinue and servants lived temporarily in the carriage of the magic caravan.

Unexpectedly, Tax Collector Byrd's family also had a glorious history in the city of Helensa. However, due to the inactivity of the following generations, by Tax Collector Byrd's generation, the family's territory had been reduced to almost one-tenth of what it was at its peak.

One, and the Byrd Tax Collector's generation can hardly even keep their title of baronet, and the Byrd Tax Collector's family is about to be wiped out in the tide of history.

Suldak glanced at Bird's tax collector's beer belly, and it was obvious that even if he was asked to go to the battlefield and perform meritorious deeds to maintain his title and territory, it would be extremely difficult.

Tax Collector Bird was wearing light green leather armor and a thick leather coat. He enthusiastically introduced the situation of the surrounding land to Suldak along the way. It was obvious that he was quite familiar with this area.

When at the boundary monument, Tax Collector Bird could tell exactly whose territory...
