After Fenghou Jiuyao reached level seven, Brando gave up any plans to go further in the short term. The experience required for level seven Fenghou Jiuyao has reached 250,000, even if Brando draws Mavekar
The experience speed of the Book of Specials can't keep up. The seventh-level Wind Queen Jiu Yao can already produce eight illusions, and the attack power of the illusions has reached 50%. It is only one step away from the highest nine illusions.
Brando also discovered that the duration of Fenghou Jiuyao's illusion was related to the level of swordsmanship, and he learned that the duration of a single illusion at Fenghou Jiuyao was about 0.23 seconds, but by the seventh level, the duration of a single illusion had already expired.
At almost one second, there is almost a tenth of a second improvement at each level.
When Jiu Yao's illusion uses skills, it will extract his magic power as described. The extraction method seems to be to convert the required physical strength into magic power. The charge is 6 points and the piercing is 20 points. The magic power itself is much less than the physical strength.
Not to mention that if nine illusions are drawn at the same time, Brando has 250 mana points, but nine illusions can charge nearly half of them at one time, and one piercing strike can completely drain almost all the mana from the mana pool.
And if the illusion uses magic - although the illusion does not stay long enough for them to use most spells - Brando happens to have the magic-like skill of bark tenacity. He tested it with bark tenacity.
When the illusion uses magic, the magic power drawn seems to be doubled. Brando himself uses bark toughness for 50 points of mana in exchange for a point of armor, while the illusion requires 100 points.
Moreover, Brando has also experimented that the illusion itself cannot use Fenghou Jiuyao to create another illusion, and it cannot actively exchange places with him.
After thoroughly understanding the operation methods and usage restrictions of Fenghou Jiuyao, Brando began to find someone to practice this swordsmanship. The one he was most familiar with was naturally the old swordsman Kuran, but this guy fought with Brando for two days
After that, he shouted to quit. After Brando came back from the Ring of Trade Winds, his own strength basically reached the middle level of gold. In addition, the swordsmanship of Fenghou Jiuyao was too weird. Even with Kuran's strength,
Being beaten to the point of losing his armor as soon as they had a fight - normal people would not be willing to do such a one-sided thing to seek abuse, let alone Kuran's dignity as a gold-level swordsman.
So the old man simply stopped coming the next day.
There was no longer Kuran, but the Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles heard from somewhere that Brando was practicing swordsmanship and came to the door. The Gray Sword Saint never minced words when negotiating with others. When he found Brando, he opened his mouth.
They want to learn swordsmanship. Brando is still a little strange. In terms of the swordsmanship of the Gray Sword Master, there is nothing to learn from him. The strength of the two is really very different, and it is said that they are about the same as guidance.
But this falls into the category of someone giving him a pillow if he wants to sleep, so Brando can't refuse. But what he didn't expect was that Mephisto actually lowered his strength and fought with him patiently. As a sword master, the latter was naturally more powerful than him.
Kuran knows a lot about things. His eyes changed after Brando made a move - Ancient Heritage - Mephistopheles took the trouble to confront Brando, and then pointed out Brando one by one.
Loopholes in swordsmanship.
Mephistopheles has nothing to say about Fenghou Jiuyao. The ancient skills are beyond his level, but he is a master in military swordsmanship. In fact, the military swordsmanship of various countries in this era is not much different, because after all, it is
Basic skills, but there are some gaps in details that allow professionals to tell at a glance which country's swordsmanship this is.
Mephistopheles has practiced Cruz's military swordsmanship since he was a child, and Cruz's swordsmanship has a connection with Eruin's swordsmanship. After he mentioned it, Brando actually felt that his long-stagnant military swordsmanship level
There were signs of loosening again. This made Brando both excited and curious. Naturally, he was excited because if he took the sixteenth-level military swordsmanship a step further, the benefits would be absolutely earth-shaking. But what he was curious about was that it seemed that every sword master seemed to be interested in
Everyone has their own unique understanding of swordsmanship, Otales has this, Gray Sword Master has this, and their experience seems to be very beneficial to the improvement of swordsmanship after level 15.
Brando couldn't help but think, if he visited all the sword masters in Warnd and got their insights, would his swordsmanship directly enter the holy realm?
Of course, this is just a thought at best. Although there are not many beings in Warnd who can be named Sword Masters, there are dozens of them. There are many weird-tempered ones among them, and there are even evil people, such as Gray Sword.
Compared with them, Saint Mephisto is simply a normal person among normal people. To be recognized by all these people, to be honest, this is an impossible task. Among the ultimate sword masters Brando knows
There is also Veronica, but I don’t know if the Cruz female war goddess will favor him enough to teach him swordsmanship. Although Veronica joked that she wanted to teach him swordsmanship,
But the prerequisite is that he becomes a member of the Empire, which is impossible.
There was a crisp sound, and in the midst of his thoughts, the Sword of the Earth in Brando's hand intersected with Mephisto's gray sword. A huge force almost made him lose his grip and the sword flew out. He hurriedly backed away.
, the three phantoms behind him immediately intertwined with him, taking a step forward to block Mephisto's path to continue his attack, and Brando was able to escape.
Mephistopheles watched the three illusions disappear in front of him. He did not intend to go any further. He put away his sword and looked at the panting Brando: "Did you get distracted just now?"
Brando nodded, took a breath and said, "Yes."
"Then that's it for today." Gray Sword Master replied neatly.
Brando nodded again. But he stood up and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Earl, although we have not been together for a long time, it has been close to half a month since the Ring of Trade Winds. I know your feelings very well.
Personality, given your personality, you will never bow to anyone or show kindness to anyone, right?"
The Gray Sword Saint said nothing, acquiescing to Brando's statement.
"Then you should also know my temper. I don't mind joking about small things, but since I promised Ms. Veronica to help you restore the country, I will never go back on my word or deliberately delay time." Brando paused.
After a moment: "I think your reason for coming today is actually to teach me how to use swordsmanship...?"
"When do you plan to leave the forest?" Mephistopheles asked.
"The druids have prepared their war equipment, and the elves and human mercenaries are ready to go, but the vehicles for so many people are a problem. Even with the abilities of the druids and tree elves, they can't find so many at once.
Pegasus is coming." Brando frowned, and Mephistopheles asked his most troubled question. Now that there are armies, but how to send these armies out as quickly as possible is a big problem - he
But he will not forget that he is now deep in the Black Forest, at least a month away from the Eruin border: "But at the latest a week, I will let the army leave, at least part of it."
Mephistopheles nodded: "I heard about the trouble in your territory. How sure are you of winning?"
Are you afraid that I will lose? Brando was a little understanding. He couldn't help but glance at Mephistopheles and asked: "Speaking of this, I have always wanted to ask, Lord Earl, although I don't know you and Cruz
What agreement did the human duchess reach? But you chose my ship. Do you know that my enemies are everywhere in Eruin, so perhaps it was not a wise choice for you to choose my side?"
Mephisto's gray eyes stayed on Brando. The young man's wit reminded him of Veronica when he was young. No wonder that woman was so fond of him. He gave a rare smile: "
Mr. Captain, you have many enemies, but I only have one enemy. What do you think?"
Brando was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but laugh. Indeed, the Gray Sword Master, who is uncontested in the world, has always had only one enemy, and that is the Cruz Empire. Mephistopheles is not even afraid of that behemoth, so how could he?
Are you afraid of those local chickens and dogs in Eruin?
"So, Mr. Earl, what do you mean?" Brando asked.
The Gray Sword Saint looked at him and asked seriously: "I came here to ask you if you are willing to accept my mantle and become the successor of my swordsmanship."
"What?"
Brando was stunned for a moment. He resisted the temptation to touch his face to see if his appearance had changed since he came out of the Ring of Trade Winds. Why did he seem to suddenly become so popular?
The flowers are blooming. But fortunately, there is the ancient heroic knight Otales in front of him to teach him. At this moment, even if a sword master suddenly claims to accept him as his disciple, he will not be so surprised that he is speechless.
He quickly calmed down and realized in his mind that Mephisto's move might have political intentions. To put it bluntly, it was for the restoration of the country. He knew that the Gray Sword Master was actually not keen on politics. He returned to the country purely because of
Personal belief, this is a rare person with noble moral character in this era, but this does not mean that this earl is a fool. The Gray Swordsman knows very well that when he is around, the principality may be able to get his protection.
But he cannot always devote his energy to leading a country. His lifelong pursuit is, to put it bluntly, swordsmanship.
But Brando is different. Anyone can see that he is a lord first and a swordsman second. He is not even a real swordsman. In terms of pursuing swordsmanship, he may not even be as good as Kuran. This
Indeed, if Brando had the experience of becoming a powerful wizard, he would not necessarily choose swordsmanship. What he pursues is the power that can help Eruin rise, rather than the magical Tao.
Therefore, Mephistopheles is just the opposite. He pointed out that Brando is like Veronica, which is actually a metaphor for this matter. The same goes for Veronica and Brando. She is first of all a soldier, a general and a duke of the empire, and secondly
She is a sword master. Therefore, the gap between her and Mephisto in swordsmanship is much greater. Mephisto has been famous as a sword master for a long time, while Veronica is far more famous in the title of 'Female War Goddess'
Because of her reputation as the Blue Sword Master.
After thinking about this, Brando calmed down completely. The Gray Sword Master wants to accept him as his disciple, which is naturally a good thing. Not to mention that Mephisto's swordsmanship has its own system, at least it is an intermediate-level skill or above.
It is also a good thing to have such a powerful person as your backer.
But at this moment, Brando has actually accepted the inheritance of Otales. Otales can not care about the Dark Dragon. That is because they are contemporaries. It is understandable to say that they sympathize with each other. But the female knight
It's hard to say whether she can accept a guy who may not be that powerful in her opinion to be her equal.
But to Brando's expectation, Ortales did not object.
"I suggest you accept it." After getting Brando's inquiry, Otales felt a little satisfied, because it showed that Brando did not just regard her as a ring spirit, but really regarded her as a ring spirit.
As a teacher. Although as a heroic spirit that has lasted for thousands of years, she doesn't really care about this, but she is still very satisfied to find a young man who has inherited excellent character as his successor: "Mephisto's swordsmanship is very special.
Integrate into one body, and after all, my vision is limited to a thousand years ago, and that guy Odin only gave you the inheritance of blood. Compared with it, what he knows may be more helpful to you. You don’t need to care too much about my opinion. For sister
For me, if you can become stronger, that's what I want to see."
"Thank you." Brando was a little touched. Otales's concern for him seemed to be like a sister's protection for her younger brother.
However, he did not agree immediately, but said to Mephistopheles: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, but let me think about it for a day."
Mephistopheles showed admiration. He was very confident in his swordsmanship. Normal people would faint with joy immediately when they heard that he wanted to accept a disciple. But Brando showed calmness. For swordsmanship,
It is necessary to keep calm at all times, and it is the same as a lord.
"Of course there is no problem, but you should understand that I want to teach you swordsmanship not just because you are the future lord. It is not because I need to help you to restore the country, but I do think you are good enough to inherit my swordsmanship.
"Although I haven't been with you for a long time, I believe in Veronica's perspective on people." After thinking about it, he added.
"You and Veronica have known each other for a long time?" Brando couldn't help blurting out, but he regretted it after saying it. This was too gossipy, and the habits left behind as a player can't be changed for a while.
Unexpectedly, Mephistopheles didn't mind this question. He nodded: "The principality where I live has actually been a vassal state of the empire in the early years. When I was young, I completed my studies in the empire. At that time, Veronica was my
classmate."
"What?" Brando's gossip soul suddenly ignited, and he couldn't help shouting, "Holy shit." He only knew that Mephistopheles was the mortal enemy of the Cruz Empire, and he had fought against Veronica many times.
Unexpectedly, these two people were childhood sweethearts to some extent.
But just as he was about to continue asking, Mephisto interrupted the topic first and said, "Do you still remember when I asked you when your army can leave?"
"Huh?" Brando looked puzzled at the old-fashioned sword master with an expression on his face that looked like it was carved out of wood.
"Actually, this is not a problem. The two great mages from the Silver Alliance who stayed in the Green Tower. Master Tulaman and I have some connections. In other words, he owes me a favor. I can ask them to help." Mei.
Feist replied.
"Temporary Teleportation Array!" Brando jumped up immediately. The array of thousands of people sounded a bit incredible. It would definitely not be a problem to teleport hundreds of people at a time if William and Tullaman teamed up. The remaining people could be used.
Send Pegasus away, and the vehicle problem will be solved!
He has been delayed here for so many days. To put it bluntly, the biggest problem is how to send these people out of the Black Forest as quickly as possible. Although the druids have been raising Pegasus, they have just experienced the wolf disaster in the Green Tower.
How could the Semi-Conference raise so many Pegasus?
But Brando reacted immediately and asked with some suspicion: "But Tulaman is a people of silver. According to the sacred oath, they cannot interfere in mortal disputes."
He wanted to see how Mephistopheles would respond, but what he never expected was that the old-fashioned sword master actually put his index finger to his lips and said to him, "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, then there's something else."
Who would have known' gesture.
Brando was stunned. Cheating!? This is absolutely cheating. Damn it...
…
(ps: 4500 words. The preparations for the war are over. The next war in Tonigel will begin. Although Count Jean Denel’s power is huge, there is no doubt that Madara is the real threat. How can Brando face it head-on?
Instasaurus emerges from this battle and truly steps onto the stage of history, let us wait and see.)
