Chapter 137 Black Snake Breaks Limits! (1st update! 5k for subscription!)
In the Emerald King City.
The young king listened to the news that came.
"Baron Black Snake..."
The king brings back distant memories.
He almost forgot that there is such a family.
According to the laws of the kingdom, Baron Levi is indeed the legal heir of the Tulip and Storm collars.
But because the Duke of Montenegro interfered so much, the royal family originally wanted to turn a blind eye and close one eye to take back the two territories.
The Black Snake family has been silent for too long, and he thought that the heir, Li Wei, would not care about it.
Unexpectedly, because of the snow demon disaster in the north.
Levi, who didn't want to come to the south, had to come to the south.
The king called the ministers to discuss this matter.
Finally, everyone reached a consensus.
That is, this matter is over like this, don't mention it again.
After all, the Kingdom itself is unreasonable first.
The kingdom that has just ended a long period of war is fragile, leaking from all sides, and dying.
The kingdom no longer wants to go to war.
Besides, Baron Li Wei now seems to be a top-level knight like his father, and even the Red Willow Excalibur among the Seven Swords under the King is no longer his opponent.
Baron Levi was in the same year. At this time, there is no need to have a bad relationship with a top knight.
Besides, the Black Snake Knight and his soldiers sacrificed their lives for the country, although Li Wei finally knew that it was the Duke of Montenegro who did it, and it had nothing to do with the kingdom.
But the Kingdom acquiesced in the Duke of Montenegro's subsequent behavior of doves occupying the magpie's nest, which was also a mistake, and it made the Duke of Montenegro continue to expand, and eventually became the catalyst for the rebellion.
So everyone thought about it, and letting Baron Levi return to the territory is the most suitable choice at present.
Bearing the kingdom's gift, the envoys set off towards the tulip collar.
Not long after, Zhenguo Excalibur also led his team to evacuate from the place in Stormwind Territory.
Holy calendar 1014, the last days of the end of the year.
Li Wei also received a reply from the kingdom.
As for his behavior, the kingdom has allowed it.
Originally, it was legal, and the kingdom couldn't say anything.
Otherwise, the power foundation of the nobles will be shaken, and the king, the "leader", will not be able to sit still.
Li Wei naturally replied, expressing his gratitude and loyalty to the kingdom, and flattering the new king.
Behind him, the Duke of Hongliu also had a dark face and came to take away his son and the army with a ransom.
Li Wei also readily let him go.
If eyes can kill, Duke Red Willow's old eyes can kill himself countless times.
After all, I am the seed of life of the future star of their family, the Red Willow Excalibur.
But the old guy couldn't say anything, and he also got compensation from the kingdom.
Moreover, even his own son is not Li Wei's opponent. Li Wei's current strength is only stronger than the Black Snake Knight back then.
Gradually, the great southern nobles knew that the mighty "Black Snake" had returned and was entrenched in Tulip collar.
Li Wei's fame also began to spread in a small area.
The titles of "Lord of the Giant Bear" and "Lord of the Black Snake" also began to spread slowly.
Although this is not the effect Li Wei wants to achieve, it is also impossible.
Low-key is not to be wronged, sometimes, you still have to have a bad reputation, so as to avoid some troubles.
Of course, this must have a degree.
Now this is fine, and then just live in peace and stability. People can be famous, but not too famous. The fattest pigs are the most likely to be sent to the slaughterhouse.
"No matter what, you can live a more stable life in the future."
Li Wei whispered in his heart.
He heard that the snow demon from the north had appeared on the edge of Earl of Silver Mountain's territory.
It made him glad he moved to the South.
If I still stay in the north, worrying about Lanshuang every day, how can I practice.
People, sometimes they just have to give in.
Facing the disaster of the snow demon in Icewind City.
Li Wei can only wish Earl of Yinshan, an old friend, to tide over the difficulties.
The tulip collar and storm collar were withdrawn, and Li Wei was not very happy.
So many territories are troublesome in themselves.
Especially the Storm Neck and Tulip Neck are not next to each other.
He also lacks talents in the territory now.
Li Wei's focus is always on cultivation, and it is impossible to waste too much energy on the territory.
No way, he can only spend a lot of money to recruit talents to help him manage the territory.
Before, it was only necessary to manage Heishuigu, and the problem of talents was not very prominent.
Today's tulip collar and storm collar are all sweet and sour.
Li Wei knew that there must be many people coveting his territory.
The talents recruited are definitely not as good as those cultivated by oneself.
But Li Wei can't help it, his heart is not in this territory, and now he is a lord because he simply doesn't want to hand over his family's property to others.
"Don't mess with me, I'm really easy to get along with, really..." Li Wei thought to himself.
I hope that the great nobles in the south will be more interesting, otherwise there may be fewer great knights in the world.
Basically solved the matter of the territory, Li Wei practiced with peace of mind, waiting for the fire paper to burn.
Holy calendar 1015, new year.
Li Wei made a speech in the Flower City, officially announcing his return.
The kingdom also sent envoys to congratulate.
This surprised Li Wei.
It has been more than ten years since Li Wei traveled to this world.
He also grew from a little boy to a twenty-five-year-old macho.
Two meters tall, with strong muscles, angular face, and rough beard.
This is the shape of Li Wei today, and it is getting farther and farther away from the original intention of Mr. Pianpian, a white-faced niche.
On the contrary, there is a feeling of Yan Chixia in Tsui Hark's version of A Chinese Ghost Story.
Li Wei also went to Heishui Valley, and received the second general Heng Ha into the Tulip collar. Li Wei hid them in the dense forest behind the Flower City, and listed this area as a restricted area.
He did this entirely for the safety of the citizens.
The two giant knight-level monsters, if someone who doesn't know how to go in, there is a high probability that they will never return.
There are these two giant beasts sitting in the city of flowers, ordinary enemies, they don't know how they died when they came.
Years passed, and in the blink of an eye, another half a year passed.
It has been more than half a year since Li Wei moved into Flower City.
Big cities also have the benefits of big cities.
At least Li Wei went to the Shining Tavern, so he didn't need to go to the city frequently.
After all, there are in my own city.
It's just that Li Wei basically doesn't lack anything now.
So the number of times I went to the Shining Tavern became less and less.
Most of the time, he is practicing.
Occasionally go to the Shining Tavern to eavesdrop on other people's conversations.
Or see if the pyroxene has fallen.
Meditation method is still a little proficiency a day, and nothing can be changed.
But this is a good thing for the practice of breathing.
After all, after practicing meditation every day, there is still a lot of time left.
During these times, Li Wei used to practice breathing techniques.
He now sleeps no more than three hours a day on average, and sees the Flower City at three o'clock in the morning every day.
With his current physique and fitness, he really doesn't need that much sleep.
Three hours is enough for him to rest efficiently.
Under such an explosion, the breathing technique progressed rapidly.
However, Li Weiwei's breathing method also has a focus.
Because Black Snake has been stuck at the ninth-order limit for a long time.
So during this period of time, Li Wei focused on practicing the tortoise breathing method, which is an excellent defensive breathing method.
After more than half a year of hard work, this breathing method has been pushed to the limit by Li Weiwei.
Levy——
Tortoise breathing method: ninth level (limit, can break the limit), special effect: elephant armor (gaseous state).
…
The weevil special effect after the ninth limit of the tortoise breathing method is essentially similar to the black scale special effect of the black snake breathing method.
And Li Wei tried it, and the defensive power of the elephant armor is almost the same as that of the black scale.
But the weevil makes itself look like a turtle.
Its beauty is not as good as that of Blackscale.
Today's Li Wei's body surface is covered with layers of gaseous carapaces like turtle shells.
Suddenly, Li Wei discovered a problem.
Tortoise Breathing Method and Black Snake Breathing Method can be run at the same time.
But the special effects of the elephant armor and the black snake can only appear one at a time.
"It seems that the special effects still cannot be simply repeated and superimposed." Li Wei was a little emotional.
He thought, if the special effect of the elephant armor and the special effect of the black scales can be superimposed, then he will not integrate the breathing method of the tortoise with the breathing method of the black snake.
But now it seems that Li Weiduo thought about it.
It seems that two extraordinary defenses cannot be easily superimposed at the same time.
Elephant armor and black scales cannot be superimposed at the same time.
Since this is the case, Li Wei has nothing to miss.
He integrated the tortoise breathing method into the black snake breathing method, plus a superficial defensive breathing method obtained before.
Li Wei's black snake breathing method broke the limit again.
Levy——
Black Snake Breathing Method: Ninth Level (1/150000), Special Effect: Black Scale (Gas State).
…
"The Black Snake Breathing Technique can continue to practice again. When the Black Snake reaches the tenth level limit, my cultivation base should be at the same level as the former Imperial Fist and the Duke of Montenegro."
After the black snake broke the limit, it has gone beyond the scope of the excellent quality breathing method.
It should be the real perfect quality breathing method.
Li Wei left the castle and retreated for half a year.
The fire paper is still silent.
Li Wei always carried the fire paper with him, for fear of missing the call.
"The efficiency of wizards is really low."
Li Wei couldn't help complaining.
His stomach growled, the whale sac was empty.
And the bag of gluttony seems to be hungry too.
He asked his servants to prepare a large table of meals for himself.
Another whole cow was prepared for the bag of gluttony.
Next, it's "gluttonous time" for the two big eaters.
While eating, Li Wei listened to the report of the newly recruited Flower City officials on the situation of the territory.
The financial and military aspects of the territory, these two core departments, are in charge of the group of people brought out from the Blackwater Valley by Li Wei.
One is in charge of money and the other is in charge of the army, both are very important, especially the one who manages money.
Flower City is not Blackwater Valley, the annual financial income, even for the wealthy Li Wei, is still a considerable amount of income, and Li Wei cannot give up.
In addition, the income of Stormwind City should not be underestimated.
This is why the Duke of Montenegro wants to take these two territories no matter what.
So far, everything in the territory is normal.
The situation is much better than Li Wei imagined.
It may be because the power I left some time ago is still there, and everyone is honest and honest at present.
And my neighbors also expressed their kindness to themselves in various ways.
After all, I am still young and at the peak of my strength.
Just being a top knight, the deterrent power is enough to make most enemies daunted.
What's more, the three-headed giant bear in the north who tore countless enemies with his hands, and the well-equipped red blood cavalry left a deep impression on others.
The northern giant bear is a symbol of toughness, and three giant bears can be tamed as pets. In the impression of others, Li Wei is a rude, savage, and violent northern barbarian.
People like this are unreasonable.
If you can avoid it, don't.
The hypocritical southern nobles naturally understand this truth.
Finally, Li Wei heard a report on the security issues in the territory.
"My lord, there have been some strange murders in the territory recently. The strength of the subordinates is low, and there is no way to find out who the murderer is, but the subordinates guess that the murderer should not be human." The sheriff reported anxiously.
"Oh? Not human."
Li Wei doesn't care much about things in the territory.
But when he heard that the murderer might not be a person, he was not sleepy.
He smelled evil spirits.
"It just so happens that my Seal of Dragon Might is about to reach level three. Let's see which lucky guy has delivered food." For the proficiency of Seal of Dragon Might, Li Wei's evil spirit dust is almost exhausted.
Now there are only a few necessary ones left for actual combat.
I am worried that there will be no evil spirits to catch me.
He was thinking about whether he should start an exorcism office.
At that time, let some lords who have been tortured by evil spirits spend money to get rid of their spirits, and they can get the dust and money of evil spirits, and the lords can be safe.
Wouldn't it be great to have the best of both worlds, a win-win situation?
"Take me to see the dead, I want to see who dare to make trouble in my territory." Li Wei sneered.
The sheriff brought Li Wei to the morgue.
Li Wei looked at the three corpses in the morgue.
"The wounds on the three victims are similar. The subordinate suspects that it should be the same... person."
The sheriff lifted the white cloth, and Li Wei looked at the slightly smelly corpses.
"Where's the heart?"
Li Wei suddenly discovered that these corpses had no hearts.
"When the subordinates found out, the heart was gone." The magistrate couldn't help trembling when he thought of such a heart-pounding madman hiding in the shadows of the Flower City.
Li Wei observed the corpse carefully.
The first corpse is an ordinary person, with a missing heart and shriveled body.
The second corpse was an official knight, who seemed to be a minor nobleman. Similarly, the heart was also missing.
"None of the official knights are opponents, they may be evil spirits."
Levy's inner analysis.
But he has never seen an evil spirit attacking with a heart.
According to Li Wei's understanding, creatures like evil spirits generally do not attack physically, and they attack the soul directly.
For example, the nun who took the soul, and the water fairy.
If it is a physical attack, then the evil spirit must also be a physical body. In the state of a spirit body, there is no way to carry out physical attacks.
"Could it be possible that the evil spirit still has a body?" Li Wei muttered in his heart.
"I see, you continue to increase patrols and investigations. The prisoner may be a person, but he disguised himself as some kind of monster by digging out his heart to deceive people. If you find a possible enemy, don't do it. First Report to me."
Li Wei said.
Looking at it now, whether the murderer is human or not.
In short, ordinary knights should not be opponents.
"Good sir!"
The magistrate retreated panting as if he had received an amnesty.
Standing in front of the two-meter-tall lord, it was difficult to breathe.
Li Wei closed the door.
He released Tutan.
Now he is indecisive, so he asks Tutan.
How to put it, Tutan is also an apprentice wizard.
His insight must be far beyond his own.
When Tutan saw the death, his face was solemn.
"If this kind of death method excludes the mischievous human murderer, then the closest and most likely method is the handiwork of the blood race."
"Blood race? Isn't it an evil spirit?" Li Wei asked.
"It should not be an evil spirit. The heart of the deceased is missing, and the blood in the whole body has been drained. It looks like a corpse. It should be a vampire. According to the research of the wizard, creatures such as the vampire have appeared in the world a long time ago, and they have never been seen before." Stay away. They come from the intersection of multiple planes in ancient times, and they are monsters left in our world after creatures from certain planes invaded our world."
"You have to be careful, creatures like the blood race are not as easy to deal with as ordinary evil spirits or snow demons. The essence of evil spirits is actually the distortion of some mortals with strong obsessions combined with the tide of magic. The snow demon is the blue Frost invades and infects the undead distortions of mortals. Although they have some supernatural qualities, they are limited in strength.
But the vampires are different. The vampires themselves are powerful creatures of some planes. Afraid of garlic, although they don't like sunlight, they don't die when they encounter sunlight as in the story.
Even for apprentice wizards, vampires are not easy to deal with, and powerful vampires can cause headaches even for formal wizards. My suggestion is to report this matter to the church and let the church send professional people to deal with it. "
Tutan said.
"Churches? Count on them?"
Li Wei couldn't help but think of the evil spirits in Icewind City who have been doing evil for more than half a year. Today's church is a group of mobs.
Even a dangerous evil spirit can't handle it, let alone a vampire.
"Do you have any books on monster illustrations here? As an apprentice wizard, general knowledge about monsters should be a compulsory course, otherwise how would you deal with monsters?" Li Wei took the opportunity to ask.
He lacks such things now. He needs to supplement some knowledge about monsters so that he can know his enemy and himself, and he will be more calm in the face of these monsters who have revived from the demon tide.
In the pot of equivalence, a thin booklet appeared there.
"Knowledge is money, and things like monster manuals are also very valuable. After all, a lot of knowledge about monsters is the unique research results of some wizards, and they are generally not given to others easily, but mine is relatively basic. They are some common monsters, according to the principle of equivalent exchange, the soul of a knight, this manual belongs to you." Tutan said nervously.
"No problem." Li Wei randomly found a condemned prisoner from the dungeon, and then exchanged this booklet from Tutan.
The Franken Wizard's Monster Manual.
"It seems that you still have a lot of good things here." Li Wei looked at Tutan with a half-smile.
Seeing this, Tutan immediately slipped back into the pot.
Li Wei shrugged, returned to the castle, and started making up lessons.
