Six Hundred and Ninetieth Chapters Into the Mountains

Although the process of being promoted to the second-level trainee knight was a little turbulent, it was just a delay. For Zhou Xiaobo, it could be said that there was no danger.

However, after he was promoted, he didn't tell anyone. He just took a long vacation with the trainee knight of Center. The reason was that he was about to be promoted to a trainee knight and needed to make some preparations.

For a "fool", the normal person's reaction is not to think that the other party is lying, not to mention that Zhou Xiaobo, a "fool" is a relatively honest kind, so it will not arouse suspicion, so he didn't think it was wrong. Okay, just a casual encouragement, and approved Zhou Xiaobo's ten-day vacation.

In fact, Zhou Xiaobo does not have to train with the apprentice knights of Center, but it will be a bit abrupt to do so. Without formal apprentice knight training, he can be promoted all the way, and finally reach the level of a formal knight. He is regarded as a monster, not to mention that he is a "fool" and has a good reputation. If he really does that, the result is likely to be miserable. It is light to be locked up for interrogation and research. If it is serious, he may be directly regarded as heresy Burned, that kind of situation is entirely possible with the practice of this world.

In addition, Zhou Xiaobo also needs to explain to his mother that he directly left the training ground for apprentice knights in Center, no matter what the reason is, his mother will not be able to pass that test.

There is only one way to get rid of the prejudice of the world, and that is to gain stronger strength, such as becoming an official knight. At that time, he will truly become a genius in the eyes of everyone, not a monster.

And this time, Zhou Xiaobo also lied to his mother, saying that the trainee knight of Sente planned to take everyone to the edge of the nearby mountain forest to practice, because he didn't need to enter the mountain forest, just feel the atmosphere of the wild, so basically There is no danger on the road, just like an outing, so it is just more time-consuming, but it will never have any risks.

This statement is relatively easy to be fooled by the mother.

In fact, it was the same. When Zhou Xiaobo "asked for leave" on both sides, he passed the other party's questioning relatively smoothly and got ten days of vacation.

Especially on the mother's side, because Zhou Xiaobo's performance during this period is quite good, the whole person is not as "stupid" as before, has undergone great changes, and is faintly improving in the direction of normal people. From the mother's point of view, He should be like this because he has been an apprentice knight with Center for a long time. Most of the credit for the apprentice knights of Center is here, so she is also very supportive of this "outing" experience, and even gave Zhou Xiaobo a sum of money. Silver coins, let him go out and be sure to bring enough outdoor survival supplies, so as not to miss anything and suffer outside.

For this, Zhou Xiaobo naturally accepted it without hesitation. On the one hand, this also fits his status as a "fool", and on the other hand, the family is not short of money, at least not short of silver coins.

...

When leaving the castle, Zhou Xiaobo went out alone, but he had already inquired clearly beforehand that a team of hunters was leaving today. After Zhou Xiaobo waited outside the city gate for a while, he waited for a while. There was a team of three hunters with several hounds, a big bag on their backs, and even a livestock—the iron-backed rhinoceros.

This is a slightly irritable domestic animal. Often only experienced hunters can domesticate it and use it normally. Of course, if it is a knight, it can also be suppressed by virtue of its strength, so that the iron-backed rhinoceros dare not resist.

The iron-backed rhinoceros ranks among the top among many domestic animals in terms of load-bearing and endurance.

More importantly, it has a good ability to climb mountains and ridges. Although it is not as comfortable as goats to walk on cliffs and cliffs, it can also keep up with hunters.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the iron-backed rhinoceros is the standard equipment for hunter teams to go out hunting, just like hounds.

However, although the iron-backed rhinoceros has good weight and endurance, it is often used to carry some heavy but not too bulky items, such as whole barrels of arrows, animal traps, clear water, etc., like camping in the wild. The daily necessities are all carried by the hunter himself.

Seeing this hunter team coming out, Zhou Xiaobo approached him, and after chatting for a while, he joined the opponent's team smoothly.

It has to be said that Zhou Xiaobo's reputation as a "fool" is very good. No matter whether others care about him or not, they don't think he would lie. So when Zhou Xiaobo proposed that both the apprentice knight of Center and his mother allowed it, the three hunters went They didn't care about it anymore, they thought Zhou Xiaobo was completely harmless, and they accepted this new member very readily - in terms of hunting skills, Zhou Xiaobo may not be as good as these hunters, but in terms of strength, he is not much worse than them. The hunters made up their minds after they learned that he was "coming soon" to the apprentice knight, so they didn't think Zhou Xiaobo was a burden.

...

Morey Castle is located on the not-so-rich but not-too-barren Glitter Plain, near the Funiu Mountains, a branch of the Kille Mountains surrounding the Forest of Death.

It is said to be a branch, but in fact the connection between the Funiu Mountains and the Kilie Mountains is not close, and there are even long-distance interruptions, which means that a considerable part of them is actually a plain area. The radiation line is recognized as a branch of the Kille Mountains, but there are almost no traces of monsters, only a large number of wild beasts and some fierce beasts, which are very suitable for hunters and apprentice knights to hunt or practice on the edge.

Although it is not exactly corresponding, after all, beasts rely on talent and instinct, and human beings rely on equipment and skills, but generally speaking, the strength of wild beasts almost corresponds to apprentice occupations, such as apprentice knights, apprentice magicians, etc., and the strength of ferocious beasts corresponds to It is a formal profession, such as knight and magic, and the strength of monsters corresponds to the great knights. It is said that there are holy beasts, divine beasts, etc. on top of monsters, but Zhou Xiaobo doesn't know. He only knows that in the Funiu Mountains Among them, as long as he is careful, he can guarantee that he will not provoke fierce beasts. As for wild beasts, with his current strength, talent, and ability, he should be able to guarantee that there is no great danger.

What's more, Zhou Xiaobo is not alone, but with three experienced hunters. As long as he doesn't go deep, he can basically be safe, but he can take this opportunity to hunt some wild beasts and devour them.

Through devouring, Zhou Xiaobo can obtain the talents and abilities of wild beasts, directly improve his own strength, and at the same time obtain energy points, which can be used for refining to improve his own cultivation level. It can be said that this is not only a fast-improving The shortcut is also an important accumulation process that can increase his upper limit.
