In this life, before awakening the memory of his previous life, he also systematically learned swordsmanship, focusing on the white crow swordsmanship originated from the Holy Empire's court. This court swordsmanship was widely spread among the royal families of various countries in the European continent through marriages with the nobles of the Holy Empire.
, the Double-Headed Eagle Fort is also known as the Lower Body Fort.
Therefore, White Crow Swordsmanship is also a common military swordsmanship for many countries in the Holy Empire.
Because most of the officers in this world are basically from noble backgrounds, they have basically received the White Crow Swordsmanship and similar swordsmanship.
The Hessensel family was originally a branch of the Emsdan royal family, and they were also veteran nobles from the Holy Empire, so naturally they would not lack this kind of background.
And according to what Lucian, the head of the family, said before, the White Crow Swordsmanship they inherited is a true inheritance that can truly enter the extraordinary realm through swordsmanship, not the abridged version of the outside world.
With some extraordinary knight inheritance gained in the plague world, looking back now, John found that the breathing and movement of the White Crow Swordsmanship he had practiced since childhood were very similar to the knight's breathing method, but it was also mobilizing life energy.
It's just that the efficiency of "qi" is not as good as those of the knight's breathing techniques.
With such a foundation, and the fact that he has become more and more proficient in swordsmanship from the Hunyuan Sword Classic in his previous life, John believes that he will definitely make rapid progress by practicing swordsmanship and minoring in martial arts, and his strength will soon improve by leaps and bounds.
This is very helpful in dealing with potential crises that may arise in the future.
After all, when it comes to responding to crises, a swordsman's reaction speed is definitely far superior to that of a wizard or a warlock, and a swordsman can also cast various spells, which will definitely surprise the incoming enemy!
The premise is that he must have a sword that will not be easily broken or damaged in battle.
John himself has multiple swords, but apart from the steel standard one-handed sword he brought today, the best one is an officer's sword produced by the Holy Empire Military Factory decades ago.
It is more of a ceremonial nature and is better than ordinary iron swords, but it is not worthy of being used as a flying sword blank as an entry-level magic weapon for sword immortals.
Suddenly, John thought that Klaus had a collection that had been passed down for two centuries. It was usually a sword worn on social occasions such as autumn hunting. It was rarely used at ordinary times and was stored in his room at Heisensele Manor.
I didn't bring it with me when I went to Rem Town.
John thought he could try this sword.
After all, this seems to be the portable sword of a marquis from a certain kingdom under the Holy Empire. It is a fine product made by a palace swordsmith. It has been passed down for two hundred years and should have a certain spirituality.
In the carriage, John said to Klaus beside him:
"Master, could you lend me your sword belonging to Marquis Nicholas? I feel that I have made some breakthroughs in swordsmanship recently and I need a one-handed sword that is easier on my hands."
"Really! Congratulations to you John, that sword is yours, as my gift for your progress in swordsmanship."
Sure enough, Klaus gave the sword to John without any care. The reason why he bought the sword at a premium was not because he liked collecting them. He preferred famous paintings, wine and beautiful women to swords and other things.
It's just because the original owner of this sword had the same name as him.
Nicholas's nickname is Klaus, and his official name is also Nicholas van Heisensel. Of course, this is not his full name. The full names of nobles are usually as smelly and long as foot wraps. This is the original name of Klaus as a boy.
A comment about John who was my companion when I was studying heraldry.
For him, John is a person who is closer than his cousin Henry. The relationship is like a brother and he can truly be relied on. Not to mention a dispensable collection, but his entire net worth.
It's not impossible.
Of course, he believed that even if John, who had always been rational, really wanted his entire net worth, it would be because of his reasons, so it was just a sword. He was more concerned about John's progress in swordsmanship and was happy about it.
A formal extraordinary person with superb swordsmanship is protecting him, I feel lucky just thinking about it.
After returning to the manor and getting the sword of Marquis Nicholas, John could not bear to check it on the spot. Instead, he watched Klaus go back to his room. Then he sat on the balcony on the second floor of his room, stroked the sword blade, and quietly felt the Marquis's sword.
sword.
Sword refining is a very private matter and usually has to be carried on someone else's back. It is said that this is a tradition to avoid being contaminated by other people's breath and causing the sword to become spiritually impure.
John didn't know if it was true or not, but he still followed the rules when practicing sword making for the first time.
The sword of Marquis Nicholas is a typical one-handed sword style of the nobles of the Holy Empire. It is more than three Brooks long and more than two fingers wide. It is slightly wider than the swords used for fighting in the rivers and lakes in the previous movies, and narrower than the swords on the battlefield. The former is
In order to facilitate concealment, the latter was made wider and thicker for fear of being cut off by enemy weapons on the battlefield.
This kind of one-handed sword is most suitable to be worn as a portable weapon to defend against sudden attacks. It has a certain endurance and is relatively lightweight.
Compared with the four-sided blade of ordinary military swords, this sword has a different six-sided blade. The front and back sides of the sword are made into two smooth mirror-like planes, with gold decorative patterns on them, except for the belt.
It has a sense of historical traces similar to patina, but it has remained fresh for a long time without any damage or rust. It is impossible to tell that this is an antique from more than two hundred years ago. The blades on both sides are patterned steel similar to Damascus steel. The sword
The silver blade looks like it glows with a blue light.
It is definitely a rare murder weapon. It was definitely a waste of time to just hang it on the wall for appreciation and collection.
John stroked his sword and sighed:
"It is worthy of being the sword of a prince. Although it has been a long time, it still retains a bit of extraordinary atmosphere! I think the palace swordsmith who forged this sword at that time was not an ordinary person. It must have been extraordinary two hundred years ago.
During the heyday of the Renaissance, it is very likely that this sword was once a powerful extraordinary weapon!"
John couldn't help but praise his good luck. He didn't expect that the first sword he got was a once extraordinary weapon, which would greatly shorten his sword-making process.
Although it is estimated that the extraordinary power endowed with this sword is its sturdiness and sharpness, and it may have other effects, all of them have been lost over time.
As time goes by, the extraordinary power originally attached to the lock on the sword is also passing away. In his hands, there is not much left. It is estimated that in ten or eight years, it will completely become a mortal thing. At that time, it will need to be put away
Only with careful maintenance in professional containers can they continue to be preserved in good condition.
"But this is enough..."
John could see that the extraordinary power was concentrated in the decorative patterns on the spine of the sword. This part could also be used, and the sword itself was loved by the original owner. Invisibly, the spirit infected the sword itself, infusing it with his own.
The idea, coupled with the love and care of collectors in the past, has given birth to some weak spiritual swords. In addition to copper and iron, the material itself also has some gold and silver and some other special materials. The texture is also considered to be of high quality, which is enough for him at present.
Started using it.
"Everything is ready, let's start now!"
Spread your own spiritual touch, that is, your thoughts, to the sword in your hand, and begin to communicate and integrate the spirituality within it. This is to put your own breath into the sword, leave your own seeds, and make it his property.
