Chapter 290 Situation (Two Chapters in One)

"Ms. Olena, the exchange for Mistress Renn has been completed. The five missions have a total of three diamonds, stars, eight gold and two silver mission evaluation medals, plus 29,500 merit points."

The pretty female staff member had a stunned expression on her face and smoothly reported a series of numbers.

"Well, yes, by the way, have you upgraded the emblem for Lord Ren?" Olena was not so shocked because she had already expected it.

"It has been updated, Lady Olena."

I saw the female staff respectfully handing Ren a emblem made of transparent crystal.

"Thanks."

After Ren took it, he looked at it for a moment and then put it away.

"By the way, help me ask over there in the office, is Admiral Edward here now?" Olena turned her head and said to the female staff member.

"Okay, my lord."

After the female staff member went out, Olena said to Ren:

"Sir Ren, in fact, after you killed the ancient hero Hogg, the task of 'investigating the truth behind the Meister attack' can be rated as magic iron level."

"But Admiral Edward said that you have just joined the Sword Bearer Division and you don't know much about some things yet. You need to be given more time to familiarize yourself and grow."

"So, the magic iron level is adjusted to the diamond level. At the same time, in order to prevent you from suffering a loss, the reward has reached three diamond levels."

"Oh? Is there anything special about it?" Renn raised his eyebrows.

There is also the Demonic Iron level, is it a level above Diamond Star?

Why haven't I heard of it before?

"It's like this. If Mr. Ren's mission is evaluated according to the one-star magic iron, Mr. Ren's sword wielder level will definitely be adjusted to the magic iron level."

"In this case, your subsequent arrangements and management rights will be managed by the Sword Bearer Headquarters."

"To put it simply, there is a high probability that you will leave Munster."

"Secondly, the difficulty of the tasks you face will also be mainly at the quasi-legendary and legendary levels."

"Huh?" Ren frowned.

Leaving Münster?

Of course this is not what he wants!

How long has he been in Munster?

He hasn't learned many things in the Sword Bearer Branch, and he hasn't used all the training equipment. Going to the headquarters now would be too counterproductive.

The other thing is the mission.

He still knows how much he weighs.

To deal with quasi-legendary enemies, you basically have to go all out.

And if he wanted to successfully kill an enemy of legendary level, he would have to use the ten-layer special effects of the 'Spirit-Breaking War Hammer'.

The key is.

Not every enemy will give him this opportunity!

Straight up the legend?

I’m afraid it’s not too long to live!

"But Diamond Star is different. The management authority is still with the Munster Sword Bearer Branch."

"Although theoretically, a three-diamond star can apply for it in person and become a magic iron-level one. However, the branch can wait until the time is right to apply to the headquarters."

Olena smiled and added.

Ren was stunned.

This involves a game between the same department, between local governments and headquarters, just like the game between local finance and central finance in the previous life.

"Thank you, Admiral Edward, for me."

"Dong dong dong!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the female staff member replied: "Ms. Olena, the office said that Admiral Edward went to the Goddess Church in the morning. He won't be back until the afternoon at the earliest."

"It seems that we can only take a look in the afternoon. Your Excellency Renn, you should be in Munster these two days, right?" Olena looked a little regretful and turned to Renn and asked.

"I've been in Munster these two days, either at the Sword Bearer branch or at home." Renn understood what Olena meant. It's best to go out in Munster these days.

"That's great, Sir Ren, I will contact you as soon as Admiral Edward is free."

"Well, please Olena." Ren nodded.

In fact, the mark has not been eliminated, and he has no plans to leave Munster at the moment.

In addition, he happened to have a few things on hand that needed to be done.

After leaving Olena's office, Renn went to the exchange hall.

When he came back this time, he gained a lot in terms of mission evaluation medals and merit points, but these things are only truly useful if they are converted into his own combat effectiveness.

Otherwise, it's just a bunch of numbers.

The first thing Renn did was to go to the redemption hall and redeem the breathing technique of excellent quality.

The flow of people in the exchange hall is slightly less than that in the mission hall.

Not long after the queue, it was Ren's turn.

Ren walked into the partition, and a young female staff member stood up and bowed:

"Hello, sir, how can I help you?"

“I’d like to look up breathing techniques.”

"Okay, sir, please show me your emblem."

Ren nodded, and at the same time, he handed the freshly baked Diamond Star emblem to the other party.

The female staff member’s eyes widened suddenly!

hiss!

A diamond-starred man!

This is rare. The entire sword wielder division does not have many diamond stars.

The female staff member couldn't help but become more respectful. After taking it with both hands, she placed the emblem in a special groove.

"Sir, do you have any requirements for the level of breathing technique?"

"Is the highest level the excellence level?"

"Yes, my lord."

"Is there any blood breathing method?" Ren thought for a while and asked again.

"Sir, there is no such thing." The female staff member checked carefully, raised her head and replied.

"Well, then list all the excellent breathing methods."

Soon, rows of white text messages appeared on the black wisdom slate in front of Ryan:

"Frost Blade Leopard Breathing Method, excellent quality, focuses on improving agility and strength. With the cooperation of specific advanced potions, there is a small probability of awakening the extraordinary characteristics "Frost Blade" and "Swiftness".

Exchange price: 1 gold medal plus 1500 merit points."

"Moon Fury Tiger Breathing Method, excellent quality, balanced improvement of strength, physique, and agility, in specific With the help of advanced potions, there is a small chance of awakening the extraordinary characteristics of "Moon Fury" and "Swiftness".

Exchange price: 1 gold medal plus 2200 merit points. "

"Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method, excellent quality, focuses on improving agility. With the help of specific advanced potions, there is a small chance of awakening the extraordinary characteristics of "Swiftness" and "Fire Wings".

Exchange price: 1 gold medal plus 2000 merit points. "

"."

There are not many excellent breathing methods in the Sword Holder Division, a total of six.

Ryan looked at the introduction of the above breathing method and pondered in silence.

"Although I gained a lot of gold skill points this time, 11 points, but after using 4 points, there are only 7 points left."

"Considering that the fusion of the Fire Iguana Breathing Method has used up 4 points, assuming that it also takes 4 points to fuse another breathing method, then there are only 3 points left."

"But we still have to consider the improvement of other extraordinary combat skills."

"The gold skill points are still a bit insufficient!"

"Let's exchange one and try it first."

After thinking for a while, Ryan said: "Help me exchange the Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method."

"Okay, sir." The female staff member quickly operated.

As for why Ryan chose this breathing method, there is a reason.

The Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method is similar to the Fire Iguana Breathing Method. Both have a small probability of awakening the extraordinary characteristics of the fire system.

So, Ryan wanted to try whether this effect would be more obvious after fusion.

After getting the Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method, Ryan returned to the dormitory he had not seen for a long time.

Ryan put the blue and white Sky Breaker and the pair of daggers at the level of rare items into the cabinet.

There was also the crystal short staff that killed the ‘Ice Messenger’ Grant before, and the blood-colored halo dagger from the ‘Shadow Assassin’.

Now, it was full.

Seeing this, Ryan couldn’t help laughing.

“If there were more, there would be no room!”

“Also, it’s funny to think that I’m already at the Diamond Star level, but I’m still living in the bridal room.”

However, Ryan didn’t mind it.

After a little tidying up, Ryan sat at the desk, opened the scroll recording the ‘Fire Wing Flying Snake Breathing Method’, and read it carefully.

About half an hour later, Ryan put down the scroll and squinted his eyes to think.

"This Fire Winged Snake Breathing Method has a total of 23 moves, two more than the original Fire Iguana Breathing Method's 21 moves, which seems to represent a better quality."

"Of course, it's still not as good as the new Fire Bear Breathing Method's 24 moves, but the difference is not that big."

Then, Ryan naturally began to practice the Fire Winged Snake Breathing Method.

The first move of the Fire Winged Snake Breathing Method has a strange posture, which is a bit contrary to the normal posture of the human body, similar to the 'Upward Dog Pose Variation' of Ryan's previous life yoga.

Of course, for Ryan, it is still not difficult.

A few seconds later, Ryan completed the first move.

Then came the second move.

In less than an hour, Ryan successfully performed all 23 moves of the Fire Winged Snake Breathing Method.

At this time, the system prompt sounded:

[Ding! The host's Fire Winged Snake Breathing Method has been detected to have reached the lowest level of integration into the Fire Bear Breathing Method. The current conditions are met and it can be integrated into a new breathing method. This fusion requires 2 gold skill points. Yes/No to choose fusion? 】

(Note: After fusion, the Fire Bear Breathing Method will not be displayed on the panel, but the host can still use related secrets and derived secrets.)

(Note: After fusion, it will be converted into the improved new breathing method experience points according to a certain ratio.)

"Hey, only 2 gold skill points are needed? It's half less than last time." Ryan was happy.

Just as he was about to choose fusion, Ryan raised his eyebrows.

He suddenly remembered something that he had forgotten to do just now.

He put away the scroll, got up and left the dormitory.

After a while, Ryan came to the test room on the third floor of the training hall with familiarity.

At this time, the girl in the room saw someone coming in, and quickly stood up and asked in a crisp voice: "Sir, how can I help you?"

"I'll do an elemental affinity test."

"Okay, sir, this service requires you to charge 5 merit points according to the regulations. Is this okay with you?"

"Yes, but I don't want anyone to be on the scene during the test."

"This, according to the regulations." The girl looked embarrassed, just when she was about to refuse politely.

Immediately, she was stunned, her eyes lit up, and she quickly smiled sweetly and changed her words:

"Okay, sir."

Because the girl saw the transparent sword bearer emblem that Ryan handed to her.

After she took it respectfully, she stopped talking immediately.

Although according to the regulations, she had to be next to it.

But the diamond star sir.

Even if this test room was to be demolished, the other party could afford the compensation.

But if she offends a diamond-level lord, I'm afraid the affairs officer will fire her immediately.

The girl took the initiative to close the door and then left.

Renn walked around the two-meter-high crystal prism and looked around again to make sure there was no hidden recording device before he nodded slightly.

I saw him holding the crystal prism with both hands, closing his eyes and concentrating, and began to test.

With the injection of spiritual power, the prism crystal soon emitted a gleaming white light. At the same time, the originally transparent prism gradually began to glow with various colors of light.

When the light gradually became stable, Ren slowly opened his eyes and carefully checked the scales above.

There was only a long strip of silver mist on the upper layer of the crystal. Renn simply calculated the difference between the top and the end and reached an astonishing 93.6.

Compared with the original 84.2, there is another substantial improvement.

But this is what Wren expected.

Because his steel body has changed from an intermediate talent to a high-level talent, his affinity with metal elements, which should have remained unchanged, has been improved again.

but

What Ren was more concerned and curious about was the long length of red mist in the middle.

"The value at the top of the red is 80, and the value at the end of the red is 2, the difference is 72!"

"My fire element affinity was originally 71.8, which increased by 0.2."

"Sure enough, it has an improving effect!"

"The fire bear breathing method at level 15 only increases the fire element affinity by 0.2."

"I guess this is why the predecessors never noticed it, no, to be precise, they didn't care."

"However, there is still a key link missing between the goals you want to achieve, but it doesn't matter, you can start practicing first."

After returning to the dormitory from the training hall, Renne did not hesitate too much and immediately chose the fusion breathing method.

Immediately, on the Weapon Master (Legendary) panel, the Fire Bear Breathing Technique on level 15 flashed a few times, then disappeared, and the words "Unknown Breathing Technique" appeared instead.

Soon, the number settled on lv14.

"Huh? Is it just lowered one level this time?"

You must know that the Bear King Breathing Technique at level 18 at the beginning, after the transformation, has been reduced by three levels.

Ren was a little surprised, but soon realized what he was saying.

It should be that the quality of the Fire Bear Breathing Technique is relatively high to begin with, so after this fusion, the downgrade is much smaller.

At the same time, a huge torrent of memories about breathing techniques began to flow into Ren's mind.

After he absorbed this memory, the system prompt also came:

[Y/N rename the new breathing method? 】

This made Ren frown slightly.

"If we name it according to the first character of each breathing method, this new breathing method can't be called 'Fire-Fire Bear Breathing Method', right?"

"Is that called the Flame Bear Breathing Technique?"

"How about incorporating other breathing techniques that begin with the word "fire"?"

"Yanxiong Breathing Technique?"

"Okay. But that's just the Fire Bear Breathing Technique, no more."

Renn felt that his obsessive-compulsive disorder was a bit off.

"Forget it, let's just make it a little taller and call it the Fire Dragon Breathing Technique! Once it's done, no matter what other breathing techniques are incorporated in the future, it will be called this name."

After Ren saw the red dragon of the Imperial Dragon Knight Menia, he found that its powerful and slender appearance was in line with his aesthetics.

As the renaming was completed, Renn reviewed the movements and postures of the Fire Dragon Breathing Technique in his mind and found that the total number of movements reached an unprecedented twenty-nine.

"I'm afraid this is the best breathing method among the excellent ones, right?"

Just when Ren was about to go to the exchange hall again, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong!"

Ren opened the door and saw a guard from the Swordsman Branch outside the door.

He bowed and said respectfully: "Lord Renn, there is a man outside who claims to be Viscount Fabien of the Axon Auction House. He said he hopes to meet you."

Um?

Axon Auction House?

This made Renn narrow his eyes slightly, his heart became slightly angry, and he also felt a little vigilant.

Claire had previously revealed that Axon Auction House was a shareholder system, and each shareholder was either a duke or a marquis, and their influence in the empire was intricately intertwined.

In addition, it is said that there is the support of the second prince of the empire behind it.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Renn was attacked and killed in the street by the 'Ice Messenger' Grant, but did not immediately retaliate.

But this time, at the residence of Earl Habbs, he was attacked and killed again.

The clay figurine still has some anger.

Renn was already thinking about whether to take the initiative.

Although the imperial capital is too far away, there is also a branch of the Axon Auction House in Münster.

"Okay, you go and talk to the other party first, I'll be here right away." Ren made up his mind and said to the guard.

"As you command, Lord Ren."

——

On the Meist Sea.

The Imperial Navy assembled more than a hundred warships, large and small, in sporadic battles with the Hai Clan.

In mid-air, Menia was riding a slender red dragon, searching for traces of the devil-tailed three-headed sea dragon.

At this time, the small witch array on the chest of her red wizard robe suddenly flickered slightly.

Menia pointed with her white fingers, and soon, the small witch formation flashed with white light, and a slightly older voice came:

"Menia, Your Majesty will attack the demigod on the last Sunday of the Green Grass Moon. Please be sure to return to the imperial capital within three days."

This is a communication magic array similar to a message.

After hearing this news, Menia frowned, looked worried, and murmured:

"So soon?"

"Has the situation reached such a critical level?"

"Why doesn't Your Majesty wait a little longer."

After thinking for a while, Menia silently chanted a spell, waved a complex mysterious symbol with his fingers, and then said:

"I will return on time."

Then, the white light of the small magic array on his chest flashed again, swallowing the mysterious symbol.

"Tassa, it seems we have to go back." Menia patted the scales of the red dragon under his crotch.

The red dragon named Tassa roared, turned 180 degrees, and rushed towards the direction of the fleet.

After a while, Menia controlled the dragon to land on a huge five-masted warship. The stern of the warship was specially modified, with an additional platform for dragon knights to take off and land.

In the captain's room of the Dreadnaught.

"Campbell, withdraw the fleet and return." Menia said to an old man in a general's uniform as soon as he entered the captain's room.

On the shoulder straps of the old man's uniform, there were three round golden emblems symbolizing the sun. He was Admiral Campbell, the commander of the South China Sea Fleet.

Hearing Menia's words, Campbell was stunned and said in disbelief:

"Your Highness, we are now in an all-round advantage. The sea tribe has been beaten back by us. Moreover, after searching for this period of time, we have basically found out the hidden sea area of ​​the magic tail three-headed sea dragon."

"Why."

"I'm going back to the imperial capital." Menia waved his hand, sighed, and said, "There are more important things."

Admiral Campbell was even more confused when he heard the answer.

He didn't know what else was more important than the matter in front of him.

After all, when His Highness Menia left, no one could confront the magic tail three-headed sea dragon head-on.

"It's just a temporary retreat. If everything goes well, I can come back again in half a month." Menia calculated the time. There were only nine days left until the last Sunday of the Green Grass Moon.

Admiral Campbell looked at Menia's beautiful face and thought about it.

He knew that the aunt of His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire must have received some special orders, otherwise, it would be impossible for her to choose to leave at this time.

In the entire empire, the only person who could mobilize Menia, the Royal Dragon Knight, was the Senate.

There was nothing to say about the direct order from His Majesty the Emperor.

"Messenger, notify the fleet to gather, the first squadron will move towards the fishing port town, the second squadron." One order after another came out of Admiral Campbell's mouth in an orderly manner.

——

At the same time.

In the upper city of Münster, in a villa of a wealthy businessman.

The exhibition of oil painting master Franco Van Cleef was in full swing in the corridor of the villa.

There were not only well-dressed girls and ladies, but also many well-dressed gentlemen coming and going, creating a lively scene.

This famous oil painting master in the empire was very good at painting figures, and each of his paintings could be sold for hundreds to thousands of imperial gold coins.

At this time, a tall and thin man in a black robe and a hood, holding a frame-like object covered by a black cloth in his hand, slowly walked towards the gate of the villa.

"Sir, if you want to participate in the exhibition, please show your invitation." The guard at the door saw the hooded man coming and asked.

The black-robed man raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of deep eyes under the hood, as if they could instantly make people fall in love.

The guards who saw the man's eyes froze immediately, their eyes lost focus, and took the initiative to move away from the original blocking position.

The black-robed man smiled slightly and slowly walked into the villa.

After a while, the confusion in the eyes of the guards disappeared.

However, they seemed to have no impression of what had just happened.

And at the corner of the gallery.

The man in black robe replaced one of the paintings on the wall with the painting in his hand.

The whole action was very formal, but the dozen people around him seemed not to notice.

Not long after, someone saw the painting on the wall and said in surprise:

"Hey, this painting is so unique, it doesn't seem to be the style of Master Franco."
