Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 68: Divine Illumination Skill Upgrade

In every era of Nord, there are legends of the King of Assassins. The King of Assassins is not a person, but a person who has accepted the inheritance of the King of Assassins.

It is said that on a certain day every year, each generation of assassin kings will go to a cave to accept the common challenge of all those who enter the cave to compete for the inheritance of the assassin king. In the end, only one person in the entire cave can survive.

This makes the King of Assassins stronger from generation to generation, especially the ability to face up. It is said that there are several generations of Kings of Assassins who can't even sneak.

Until later, a King of Assassins installed many magic traps in that cave, which successfully helped the later King of Assassins screen out many berserkers who came to challenge.

The information about the King of Assassins was collected by Weber when he was young. When he was young, he still dreamed of becoming the King of Assassins, but he had long since given up on this dream.

Baron and the others have also heard these legends, but most people only know that the King of Assassins has a short sword made of black keel, and only a few people know that he also has a transparent short sword.

"No one knows who the current King of Assassins is. It is said that he has sat in that position for decades." Weber explained again.

"But he sounds like a young man." Rhodes said doubtfully.

"It may be that the previous generation of Assassin King died of old age and he just got it, or he is a creature of a long-lived race, such as elves." Weber replied after thinking for a while.

"Why did you come to Winterfell Stronghold?" Rhode suddenly thought of this question.

"Weiber wants to see Winter Fortress before retiring, and then we will send him back to that place in Dawn Province to retire." Hamer, who had been silent all this time, replied.

"Pinewood," Weber added.

"That's right, that's right," Hamer said.

"Then when are you leaving?" Rhodes asked again.

"We can anytime," Weber replied.

"Can I wait until my dragon scale armor is ready, and I will go with you," Rhodes said.

"I'm not in a hurry, maybe I can get a chance to become a nobleman at the end of my adventurous career." Weber said, since he was old, he always wanted to be a nobleman.

"It has to survive and kill a lot of people." Hamer said.

"Of course you don't aspire to become a nobleman. You didn't tell us before that you are the son of Marquis Smith of Starlight Province." Weber said.

"It's just a second son without inheritance rights, otherwise I wouldn't be sent to Ebony City as an adopted son." Hamer said a little unhappy.

"If you're willing to go home, you're at least a baron, unlike me," Webb said.

"I think being an adventurer is more chic and free, I want to drink and drink, I want to fight and fight." Hammer said.

"If I were an aristocrat, I would definitely not come out as an adventurer, fishing and riding horses in the territory every day. No matter how poor the territory is, at least I can eat enough and wear warmth." Weber said.

"Didn't you have enough food and clothing before?" Hamer blurted out.

Weber was silent.Hammer noticed Weber's silence and apologized to him.

"Okay, let's go out for a walk in the fortress together now. I didn't visit this grand pass a few days ago." Baron said.

……

It was already night when they returned to the tavern. Even from the perspective of a modern person, Winterfell Fortress had to be said to be a grand pass, but Rhodes had never done much research on military affairs, so he couldn't see the details inside.

However, the countless arrow towers and the tens of meters high city walls gave Rhodes a deep shock.

Rhodes rented a room from the tavern owner, and he found a place to take a shower before returning to the room.

He roughly calculated that he had been in a coma for more than two months. It was just March when he went to the forest before, and it was almost May now.

There are also twelve months in this world. In the Roman Empire, January, February, and March are considered spring, while in the Nord Kingdom, March, April, and Friday are considered spring.June, July, and August are summer months.In cold Nord, only September is considered autumn, and the long winter begins in October.

In May, there was no fighting in the Winterfell Province, and the winter wheat of the Roman Empire was about to be harvested. No lord with a normal IQ would choose this time to provoke a war.

The Nord Kingdom had the upper hand in last year's war, and a large piece of land south of Winterfell Fortress was temporarily occupied by the Nord Kingdom.

Rhodes probably figured out from Baron and the others what happened after he fell into a coma. First, a troubadour discovered him in the wild.

The kind troubadour carried him back to Ebony City to find someone to help him heal. He happened to meet Baron and the others. Since Hammer had been the adopted son of the Marquis of Forth, the lord of Ebony City, with the help of Hammer, Rhodes accepted The best medical skills in Ebony City are treated by doctors.

Because the time for the curse to erupt was approaching, Baron and Weber left Ebony City to search for the temple before Rhodes woke up, and finally lifted the curse.

When Baron and the others returned to Ebony City, they met the Dragon Man who turned half of Ebony City into a sea of ​​flames. The angry Baron severely injured the Dragon Man and won the title of "Savior of Ebony City".

After the battle, they found that Rhodes was missing, thinking that Rhodes was burned to ashes by the flames.

Rhode guessed that he was rescued by that assassin king, who killed the dragon man and healed him with dragon blood.

As for why the King of Assassins did this, he couldn't think of a reason. Could it be that he was really the ancestor of this body?

He couldn't think of the answer to the question, and he didn't continue to think about it. If he meets the King of Assassins in the future, he will ask again.

Rhodes opened the martial arts system that hadn't been opened for a long time.

He found that the last task was actually completed.

The previous task requirement was to kill 10 trolls or 200 wild wolves or an animal with the same strength as a dragon or a mammoth.

He killed the dragon man once with Shengxie and Peacock Ling, and it is estimated that the system classifies the dragon man as being comparable to Yalong and Mammoth.

I don't know that the dragon man will not be resurrected this time.Rhodes has always been unable to understand the principle of the dragon man's resurrection. I cut the corpse into small pieces and threw it everywhere. I also carried its head with me, but it reappeared in front of me a day later.

If the dragonman is resurrected again, and finds a place to wait for its strength to fully recover before coming out to make waves, it was so strong before its strength has not recovered, and I don't know how many people in the entire Nord Kingdom can beat it after it fully recovers its strength?
After completing the task, Rhodes began to draw the lottery, and the result appeared instantly, instead of waiting for the pointer of the big turntable to stop.

Martial arts upgrade card (primary): It can raise any martial arts lower than level [-] by one level.

After getting this martial arts upgrade card, Rhodes entered the martial arts column, and he found that there was an additional position in his martial arts column. He carefully checked the information sent by the system, only to find that he had comprehended the essence of the golden bell-covered iron cloth shirt And the iron cloth shirt with golden bell cover has also risen to lv5, but it seems that it can continue to rise.

Rhodes still remembered how badly he was beaten that day. He was beaten first and then burned, and he didn't know how he survived under the flames. Could it be because of the divine illumination?

Thinking of this, he used the martial arts upgrade card (primary) to upgrade the divine illumination skill to one level. After the upgrade, he felt much more relaxed. He decided to practice divine illumination after receiving the task.

He reopened the taskbar.

Task [-]: It is the responsibility of a chivalrous man to act on behalf of the heavens.

Requirements: Punish a hundred people you think are bad.

Task [-]: Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.

Requirements: Walk [-] miles on foot.

Task [-]: It is the duty of a chivalrous man to eradicate violence and bring peace to the good.

Requirements: Kill or capture [-] bandits.

After Rhodes saw these three missions, he fell into thinking. The first mission and the third mission looked similar, except that the first one was more free, only punishing a hundred bad guys in my opinion, while the third mission required Kill or capture a hundred bandits.

Could it be that what I have done will cause the system to shift the judgment of my camp?

If I keep punishing good people, will the martial arts system turn into a villain system?

In the end, Rhodes chose the task [-] that seemed to be the best to complete. In fact, he felt that the task might be easier to do, and he could also upgrade the Treading Snow Wuhen movement, but the first one seemed more interesting.

After receiving the task, Rhodes sat on the bed and began to practice the Divine Illumination Kungfu. He wanted to experience the difference of the upgraded Divine Illumination Kungfu...
