However, the black energy in his sight only lasted for a moment, and then suddenly disappeared without a trace, and even the inexplicable feeling of heart palpitations disappeared.
Colin felt it carefully, but even in the state of world perception, he could no longer feel the palpitating feeling of being watched.
The golden sunlight in the evening shines into the study from the window and reflects on the desk, forming a peaceful bright spot... Everything just now seems to be just an illusion.
However, this feeling made Colin even more convinced that the malice he just noticed was not an illusion.
After all, the world perception given to him by the will of the world can only be wrong due to one factor, and that is the interference of the power of gods!
Such speculation made Colin feel a dark cloud over his heart.
"You still can't relax and spend more time improving your strength!"
…
Colin's conjecture is not conjecture.
The next day, the announcement from the Supreme Council came, and the battle situation on the front line suddenly changed.
The gods actually retreated!
They returned to the Thirteen Gray Towers and were dormant quietly, not knowing what conspiracy was brewing.
There is also a speculation about this in the parliamentary announcement.
The reason why the gods suddenly retreated was because the farmland pollution in Meredith and Neustadt had been resolved.
In this regard, the reason given in the announcement is -
The day when the gods launched their previous offensive was also the day when farmland pollution was caused.
There is obviously a connection between the two.
When the gods' side launched the offensive that day, they deliberately created a huge momentum and attacked quickly, giving the wizards sufficient preparation time so that Meredith and Neustadt's wizards could move forward.
The purpose of coming to support is obviously to make the defenses of the two cities empty and facilitate the contamination of farmland!
And the gods succeeded, and in the end most of Neustadt and Meredith's farmland was contaminated.
After that, the gods temporarily suspended their offensive and just wandered around the Strait of Teia without attacking.
The purpose is very obvious - to wait until Meredith and Neustadt have a food crisis and internal chaos, and then launch a general attack!
This is an outright conspiracy, and basically all wizards know it...but they can't do anything about it.
There is only so much land, and there is only so much farmland that can grow food, and there is actually very little time left for wizards.
If you want to eliminate the food crisis, you must do it before autumn planting.
If we fail to catch up with autumn planting, regardless of whether we can still plant grain seeds, even if we can finally plant them, I am afraid that the harvest time will be delayed.
Even if it is only delayed for half a month, it will cause unimaginable disasters... Ordinary people cannot survive half a month without eating.
Putting away the announcement from the Supreme Council... Colin sighed slightly, becoming even more sure that he was probably being targeted by the gods.
The feeling of world perception at that moment yesterday should have been correct, but unfortunately it only lasted a moment... Colin speculated that this may be because the gods noticed it and interfered with it, or the world perception skill can only be used in the first place.
There is a momentary perception once, and it cannot be perceived again later.
But no matter what, even if he didn't have such a perception, he should have expected that he was a thorn in the eyes of the gods after solving the farmland pollution.
Continue to read the rest of the newspaper, the content is basically about the changes in the frontline war...
Colin slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, but the irritability in his heart could not be eliminated.
After sitting quietly in the study for a while, he suddenly got up and walked to the silver secret room.
Sitting cross-legged on the gray cushion in the middle of the secret room, Colin lit the Ningshen incense, slowly closed his eyes, and sat quietly for ten minutes.
When all the complexities in his heart were gone, he thought slightly, summoned the gold paper, and prepared to sort out his own strength.
He is already a third-level wizard and a second-level knight.
As for wizards, although they have just entered the elementary level, their actual spiritual power and magic power are no less than those of third-level intermediate wizards.
As for the knight, because it is his original path, every step he takes is something new and unprecedented, so the specific progress on the gold paper often changes with his changes in cognition.
For example, right now, he still has no clear idea of the strength of the second-level knights, so the progress on the gold paper is still unknown.
Thinking of this, Colin's heart suddenly moved.
"Why don't you take this opportunity to briefly review the path of knighthood?"
Just as he was told, Colin took out a blank knowledge crystal and did not rush to burn it. Instead, he held it in his hand and rubbed it gently while drafting it in his mind.
"The road to knighthood can be divided into two parts - the formal knight and the knight apprentice.
From trainee knights to grand knights, they all belong to the knight apprentice part, and the formal knight part is the first-level and second-level knights that I have created now."
"A first-level knight compresses Qi and blood to achieve a qualitative change, while a second-level knight activates the power of will?"
Colin rubbed his chin and shook his head again.
"As far as previous tests are concerned, you can also activate the power of will before taking the path of a knight. It does not say that the power of will can only be activated after the energy and blood are compressed."
"However, one thing is certain - the power of will can assist in compressing blood energy."
Colin carefully recalled the time when he advanced to become a first-level knight.
At that time, it was the traction technique that came from breaking the limit of the gold paper that continuously rotated and compressed the blood energy, and finally the blood energy was able to undergo a qualitative change.
At that time, the will had already been initially revealed, but it was not mature enough and had no substantial power, so it was very little.
But even so, this weak will also played a huge role in the process of compressing blood.
"From this point of view, when you reach the first level of the knight's journey, you should first activate the power of will, and then at the second level, it is the process of compressing blood and causing qualitative changes."
"Yes, this order should be the best choice!" Colin nodded with satisfaction.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After the qualitative change of Qi and blood, the gold paper shows a first-order knight, and after turning on the power of will, the gold paper shows a second-order knight.
But the name of the gold paper is actually based on Colin's knowledge.
In fact, to be more precise, he actually made two breakthroughs in different directions on the road of knighthood, which can even be said to be relatively independent of each other.
This is actually not systematic.
But there is no connection between the two.
Colin held the crystal, and light gradually appeared in his eyes.
Putting the crystal away, he suddenly stood up and began to practice the Red Light Breathing Technique gradually from the knight's apprentice part!
While practicing, Colin confirmed his ideas.
In this way, half a day passed, and the characters in the knight column on the gold paper suddenly changed to - [Second-level Knight (87/100)]!
In the silver chamber, Colin stood quietly on the spot, his will and blood intertwined, flowing endlessly in his body.
Although it only took half a day, he clearly felt that his strength had improved again!
More importantly, after sorting out the knight's breathing method this time and slightly adjusting the training details, he clearly felt that the knight's power became more integrated!
"Has the progress reached 87/100..." Colin looked at the gold paper after feeling the changes in himself.
The path of the knight is still relatively rough. Whether it is the first level or the second level, it is in the same big stage. In fact, it does not have three clear small stages of elementary, middle and high like the wizard.
Now this 87/100 is actually considered to be the late stage of the second level knight.
After a while, when his will and vitality stop growing, it means that he has reached the peak of the second-level knight, which also means that his training in knighthood has reached a bottleneck again.
Snapped.
I took out my pocket watch and looked at it.
At this moment, it was already one forty in the afternoon, and it was almost time to meet at two o'clock that he and Shelley had agreed to meet yesterday.
"After you come back and meditate in the evening, try to absorb the blood of the gods."
With this in mind, Colin left the Silver Chamber.
…
"Master, Your Highness Jennifer came to visit an hour ago and is now waiting in the living room."
As soon as he walked out of the silver secret room, he saw Renee coming up and saying.
"I understand." Colin paused for a moment and nodded.
Go through the corridor and step onto the brown wooden stairs, directly facing the living room area below.
Colin turned the corner of the stairs and immediately saw Jennifer sitting on the sofa by the window and the maid standing next to her.
Whoosh!
Subconsciously, Colin used world perception.
The world in front of me suddenly changed.
Renee beside her was shrouded in a circle of white light, and so was Jennifer in the distance, with a soft and warm white light also appearing on her body.
As for the corner of the sky outside the window, there is a little bit of gray... In two hours, there will be a light rain.
It is worth mentioning that the white light emerging from Renee and Jennifer is basically not much different from the white light that appeared on Noyce before.
This does not mean that they all have the same favorable impression of Colin, but because world perception can only roughly perceive people's favorable impression and cannot accurately quantify it.
Moreover, reality is not a game. Human emotions are inherently ambiguous. Wanting to accurately quantify them is actually just wishful thinking.
But... Colin moved his eyes to the maid standing next to Jennifer.
This is an ordinary woman with a beautiful face. There is nothing unusual about her clothing, expression, or movements.
But a layer of gray light appeared on her body.
Colin frowned.
In the state of world perception, although it cannot be precisely quantified how a person feels about him, good or bad can still be distinguished by color and halo size.
The closer it is to black, the more it hates him, and the whiter it is, the opposite is true.
As for the size of the halo, it is the intensity of the emotion.
The thing between black and white is not gray, but colorless.
Colorless situations are rare, unless the person has never heard of or even seen Colin.
Otherwise, as long as you have heard of it or seen it, it will produce a halo, but the range will be very faint.
As for the color, it is a very weak pale white or light gray, depending on the first impression of him.
But in front of her, the maid next to Jennifer was covered in an obvious layer of gray.
"Good afternoon, Lord Colin."
Seeing him coming, Jennifer quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile.
"Good afternoon." Colin retracted his gaze from the maid and smiled at Jennifer, "What do you want to see me for?"
Jennifer smoothed her hair around her ears, sat on the sofa opposite Colin, and said with a smile:
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that in one week, September 16th, it will be my 14th birthday. I want to invite Mr. Colin to the birthday party on the 17th."
"Why number 17?"
"Qiao said that the 16th is the Queen's official birthday ceremony facing the entire Ti Laimei Plain, and it needs to be carried out according to the regulations of the ceremony... So I want to celebrate my birthday on the 17th, without having to hold it grandly, and only invite some familiar people
Let’s chat and eat together.”
Jennifer said with a slight blush, and handed Colin two invitations at the same time. One was all golden and very luxurious, while the other was very simple, with a lovely wheat ear pattern hand-painted on it.
The maid Rita standing nearby caught a glimpse of this scene and felt a little emotional in her heart.
Perhaps only in front of Colin would Jennifer behave like a girl who is almost fourteen years old.
Anyone who sees her on weekdays would not think that she is just a
A girl under 14 years old, even if her face is young and beautiful.
"I see, I will come." Colin accepted the invitation.
Colin and Jennifer continued to chat for a while.
Ten minutes later, Jennifer stood up to say goodbye, and Colin walked her to the door.
"I will come on time on the 17th."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Colin, see you next time!"
Watching Jennifer's figure gradually disappear at the corner of the street, Colin did not return to the courtyard, but stood quietly.
Another ten minutes passed, and Shelley came to the door on time. Seeing him waiting at the door, she was a little confused:
"Why are you standing at the door today?"
"Wait a minute, Shelley." Colin shook his head.
After another ten minutes, Jennifer's figure appeared in front of Colin and said doubtfully:
"Sir Colin, after I separated from Rita, I followed her carefully, but I didn't find anything unusual. Now she has returned to the palace."
Didn't you find anything unusual? Colin frowned and said, "Continue to monitor her. I'm afraid there may be something wrong with that maid."
"Okay." Jennifer nodded in agreement.
Colin also nodded slightly and prepared to go back to the study to continue discussing the reform of farm tools with Shelley.
His time is precious, and a strange ordinary maid is not worth his time to investigate.
But before turning around, he asked one more question:
"Did the maid behave in any strange way on the way back to the palace?"
"I didn't find anyone... After Rita and I parted ways, we went straight back to the palace without detours or stopping on the way." Jennifer thought about it carefully and said.
Although the maid Rita is not very old, she has spent a lot of time in the Luen family. She is basically one of the most qualified maids, otherwise she would not be sent to take care of her as the queen now.
Therefore, when Colin told her through mental transmission that something was wrong with Rita during the chat, she was very surprised and almost showed a strange expression. Fortunately, she restrained herself and did not let Rita notice.
But even though she was surprised, Jennifer did not doubt the correctness of Colin's judgment at all.
"Is there nothing unusual at all?" Colin finally asked.
Jennifer frowned and thought carefully. After a while, she suddenly raised her head and said:
"It seemed that when she was passing a corner, she accidentally bumped into a girl."
After saying this, she realized something was wrong and said with an ugly face:
"I'm going to find that girl now!"
Colin shook his head, "I'm afraid it's too late to go now."
He thought for a moment and continued: "Wait for me a moment."
Jennifer was puzzled.
The next moment, Colin suddenly rose up from the ground and flew into the air.
Then, he opened his second world perception today and looked down.
In an instant, countless haloes of light appeared on the golden wheat ears under my feet, as if stars were lighting up.
However, these halos all come from people, and are not precise and are rather general. In order to obtain such a large observation range, Colin gave up the perception of other things and the accuracy of part of the perception.
Now he has saved the entire Tiramei Plain and is deeply loved by the people, so most of the halo is white, with only a few places showing gray and black.
Colin memorized those places and told Jennifer after he found them.
So in the next few days, Jonson, Nickler, and other forces who were observing Colin with malicious intent suddenly discovered in surprise——
