Chapter 28 028: Coming From the Misty Forest (Please Read It Again, Please Read It Again)

Roshi then told Knight Carl about his wish to learn swordsmanship, which was just a small matter for Knight Carl, so he readily agreed.

"This request is far from enough to repay your assistance, so you should keep the badge."

Then Knight Carl began to teach Roshi swordsmanship.

A few days later.

"The hand holding the sword must be steady. Remember that for a knight, the sword is life and everything. With this belief, let the sword grow in your hand and never let go under any circumstances."

"When you attack, you must be ruthless. Put all your strength into your hand, concentrate it on one point, and then chop it out with all your strength."

"The target must be accurate. Not only look with your eyes, but also feel with your heart. Let your thoughts and ideas focus on that point, so that you will not miss."

"Steady, ruthless, and accurate are the three most basic elements of the Swift Sword, and also the core elements of this set of swordsmanship. Swordsmanship is just its form, and the real core is this."

The name of the swordsmanship that Knight Karl taught Luo Xi is the Swift Sword. It is the most common set of basic knight swordsmanship on the continent. It is fast and easy to learn, and is very suitable for swordsmanship beginners to learn.

"Whoosh!" A fierce sound of breaking wind sounded.

In the open space, Luo Xi waved a cross sword in his hand according to Knight Karl's instructions.

After swinging a set of Swift Swords in succession, Luo Xi stopped.

"Complete a serious swift sword, produce a critical hit, time point +8 days."

Knight Carl nodded repeatedly: "Very good, although there are still some details to be missed, but you have mastered the basic force skills and swordsmanship skills, you really don't look like a beginner."

Luo Xi has a good talent in swordsmanship. He has reached the entry level of swift sword in a few days. It would take at least ten days and a half months for ordinary people. Even Knight Carl took nearly a week at that time.

Luo Xi said: "Maybe it's because I have been practicing the body-building boxing."

Knight Carl shook his head: "The body-building boxing is just physical training. What really matters about swordsmanship is the feel of the hand and the soul fit with the cross sword."

This is a mysterious but real feeling, just like when learning to drive, some people can't learn it no matter what, while some people will feel blessed and the car is one when they sit in the driver's seat.

After a pause, Carl said, "What do you think? Will you not seriously consider my proposal?"

"Although the life of a mercenary seems thrilling, there are actually too many pleasures that ordinary people cannot experience, such as meeting different people, going to different places, and sleeping with different women."

"The money that ordinary people cannot earn in their lifetime may be just a mission for us."

"Life is only a few decades long. Guarding a small piece of land and finding a big-footed woman to roll around in a shack until you die of old age, such a life is so boring. Don't you want to see the outside world?"

"This world is very big. Believe me, your cognition will change after you go out and see it."

Carl admired Luo Xi very much. After a few days of getting along, he found that this young man not only had outstanding swordsmanship talent, but also made people feel comfortable in dealing with people. He couldn't help but cherish his talent.

These days, he persuaded Luo Xi more than once to stay and join the mercenary group as a mercenary.

Luo Xi shook his head: "I'm sorry, Knight Carl, but I really don't have the idea of ​​becoming a mercenary at the moment. My mother and brother are still waiting for me to go back."

Carl sighed and said regretfully: "Okay."

Ordinary people are like this. They regard being law-abiding as more important than anything else. Staying in one place until they are old enough to get married, have children and reproduce is the best life for them.

In their eyes, the world seems to be as big as a small town, and the farthest place they have been to may be the nearby city.

They will never know how vast and boundless this world is, and they don't know that there are bigger kingdoms outside, cities with more than 100,000 people, and how wonderful this world is.

"If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time."

"Okay."

At noon the next day, Luo Xi's destination Black Stone was received. The convoy had to go north and could only send him here. If they continued to go west, they would reach Black Stone Castle before sunset.

When they parted, Knight Carl gave Luo Xi a cross sword.

"The name of this sword is Glory. I asked someone to make it years ago, but I haven't used it much yet."

This is a two-handed cross sword, wider than the palm, about one meter and three meters long, and it looks very majestic and imposing in the hand.

Then he gave Luo Xi some instructions: "Although the next journey is only half a day, you still can't relax your vigilance."

"The earl is seriously ill, and the nobles of the entire Western Territory are busy fighting for power and profit. The scoundrels are taking the opportunity to emerge and do evil."

The nobles were originally responsible for exterminating the robbers. In normal and peaceful times, if robbers appeared in a certain place, the local nobles would definitely lead the knights to deal with them in time and would not let them grow bigger.

On the other hand, if the number of bandits in a certain place suddenly increases, it often reflects the political turmoil in this area.

In the evening, Blackstone Town.

Blackstone Town is a border town near the Misty Forest at the southern end of the Western Territory of the Kingdom of Karel. It is the direct jurisdiction of the Western Territory Lord and the hometown where the Fernandi family first started.

Walking into Blackrock Town, Luo Xi looked around.

It is not much different from an ordinary small town. Gothic-style single-family buildings stand on both sides of the road. People wearing various costumes come and go on the road. In the distance are fields of wheat and piles of ripe wheat. The piles were sent to the mill.

Towers, creeks, stone bridges, straw, and stables are a typical Gothic town, except that the roads are smoother and cleaner than ordinary towns.

Luo Xi checked the historical data of the Karel Kingdom. Blackstone Town was the place where the Fernandi family made its fortune and was also their earliest fiefdom.

Although time has passed and through the efforts and marriages of the Fernandi family's ancestors, the former Blackstone country bumpkins have taken over Fengxi City and become an important Earl of the West, the Blackstone Territory is still the irreplaceable spiritual home of this family.

The Earls of Blackstone in the past generations would come back every year to offer sacrifices. After their death, no matter where they died, their bodies would be transported to the family cemetery here.

"Knight Lowa, that's the man."

"He came to town sneakily and has been looking around since he entered."

At this moment, more than a dozen soldiers wearing bright armor and carrying cross swords came over. The silver wolf head pattern on their chests showed their identities——

The family guard of the Fernandi family.

Led by a town citizen, these dozen guards came to Luo Xi and immediately surrounded him.

Every soldier placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and was very well-trained.

A middle-aged man walked up to Luo Xi. This was the captain of the guard, Knight Lowa, one of the top three powerful knights in the Fernandi family.

Under the iron helmet was a pair of stern eyes. He first looked at the cross sword slung on Luo Xi's waist, and then asked: "This is the territory of the Fernandi family. Explain your identity and purpose, stranger."

The townspeople living in Blackstone Town are all descendants of the Fernandi family or people who have made contributions to the Fernandi family. It is a semi-closed town. A strange face like Luo Xi was suppressed as soon as he came here. Civil notice was reported to the Chevalier de Lowa.

The count was seriously ill and the Fernandi family was in a tense moment, so the Chevalier Lowa immediately came with his people.

Luo Xi didn't speak, just put one hand in his pocket.

Although it was only a small movement, it was obvious that the surrounding soldiers suddenly became nervous.

If Knight Lowa hadn't raised a hand in time to signal, Luo Xibo had no doubt that these soldiers would immediately pull out the cross sword on their waist.

Luo Xi felt in his pocket and took out a copper plate.

This is a copper plate from a previous dynasty, which has been out of use for a long time. It is full of mottled traces of time.

However, the moment he saw the copper plate, Knight Lowa was shaken.

He took off his helmet and asked with a trembling voice: "Your Excellency?"

Luo Xi's expression was as usual: "Come from the misty forest."

A simple sentence, but it seemed to contain some kind of strange power. The burly Knight Lowa, who had been practicing martial arts for decades, suddenly shook.

He took a deep breath and knelt down at Luo Xi's feet, displaying a humility he had never shown towards the earl.

Just when everyone was doubtful, his next words easily eliminated everyone's doubts, and at the same time made everyone become as humble as him and kneel down.

But Luo Wa said: "Master Wizard!"

It will be recommended tomorrow. Friends who have passed by, please support me and read it. Thank you.
