The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

【Ding! The host's internal breathing method has been detected and reached the lowest level to integrate and improve the giant bear's breathing method. The current conditions are met and it can be merged into a new breathing method. Do you want to choose fusion? 】

[Note: After being merged into a new breathing method, it will cover the original giant bear breathing method and internal breathing method. 】

Renn noticed the word 'promote' keenly, so he didn't hesitate and said 'yes' silently in his heart!

The next second!

The two streams of heat flow from the outside to the inside and from the inside to the outside, blending together.

Although he had already expected this result, when he really felt this moment, Ren was still extremely excited!

This should be his second big gain from coming to Master Gunther's training this time, besides unlocking the 'Accuracy' special effect of melee combat skills.

Although, it is still unknown how much improvement the integration of breathing methods will bring to oneself.

【Ding! Beginning to integrate. Continue to integrate.]

Obviously, the system should speed up the integration process.

Otherwise, according to Ren's estimation, the fusion process alone may take several days.

But now, this integration and improvement is completed in just a few minutes.

【Ding! The giant bear breathing method and the inner breathing method have been successfully integrated and transformed. Please name the new breathing method. 】

Name it?

Ren was stunned!

This is a bit of a headache. He is notoriously bad at naming.

Renn felt the new breathing method. It was surging, harmonious, and the inside and outside were integrated into one. However, it was obviously based on the giant bear breathing method and was upgraded and transformed by the internal breathing method. It became a new breathing method that took into account both internal and external breathing.

This kind of improvement and adaptation seems to be an adaptive adjustment based on Rennes' current situation.

The giant bear breathing method, which was originally just a general-purpose breathing method, was adjusted to a more exclusive breathing method.

If expressed in terms of proportion, 60 to 70% of the new breathing method is still the original giant bear breathing method, but the remaining part is no longer the same.

If that's the case, then it's called the 'Bear King Breathing Technique'?

So be it! Renxin said.

【Ding! The ‘Bear King Breathing Technique’ was successfully named, and the secret techniques related to the original Giant Bear Breathing Technique were also adjusted simultaneously. 】

[The initial skill level of the fused ‘Bear King Breathing Technique’ is lv5 (0/2000). 】

"Fortunately, the skill level of the new breathing method after fusion has been maintained at lv5." Renn nodded.

As for the first sentence - 'Secret skill related to the original giant bear breathing method', Ren knew that this referred to the original secret skill 'Roaring Blow'.

But the loss is not small.

After the fusion, after turning Ren into an official knight, the experience points accumulated at level 5 of the Giant Bear Breathing Technique for several months were all consumed.

From this perspective, the skill of breathing is the most difficult to improve. Even with the cooperation of refined black tung oil, if you want to improve it, it will require years of hard practice.

After the transformation was completed, Ren's heart moved slightly.

Naturally, he wanted to experience the difference between the new breathing method - the 'Bear King Breathing Method' and the previous Giant Bear Breathing Method as soon as possible.

Therefore, Ren, who was still in the sea, couldn't help but stand directly on the seabed and performed the first posture of the giant bear breathing method. He lunged with one leg, raised his hands flat, and breathed slowly.

Soon, Renne felt the difference between the two.

The first is breathing. If you change to the original giant bear breathing method, it would be impossible to practice underwater. Before changing to the original giant bear breathing method, if you took a big breath directly in the sea water, you would probably choke to death.

But the improved and adapted Bear King Breathing Method is possible.

At this moment, Ren was able to practice the new Bear King Breathing Technique even in sea water using the external respiration of his skin. It seemed that he could practice it anywhere.

At the same time, he could clearly feel that the mysterious energy that was constantly flowing in his body was like a warm air flow. When he practiced the Bear King Breathing Technique, it began to increase in an undetectable amount. , the speed of circulation is also slightly accelerating.

When Ren reached the second posture of the breathing method, which was similar to the 'Russian push-up' movement, he could keenly notice that the magnitude of the enhancement had slightly accelerated, and the circulation speed had also accelerated a little bit again.

However, what is very interesting is that this mysterious energy seems to be guiding Renn in the reverse direction through the speed of its movement, as if it is guiding and adjusting Renn's breathing posture at the moment.

For example, it's like when Ren was exercising according to "standard push-ups" before, but now, if he does it according to "standard push-ups", then the flow of this mysterious energy will be blocked.

It will spontaneously guide Renn to open his hands a little further and turn into "wide-position push-ups" for exercise. When Renn changes into "wide-position push-ups" for exercise, the flow rate of mysterious energy will speed up.

Through this process, it seems to be telling Renn that this is the most efficient and most suitable new breathing posture for him at present.

This made Ren extremely happy.

At the same time, I can’t help but sigh that the predecessor who created the inner breathing method is really amazing!

It is actually possible to slowly adjust the universal breathing method to a unique breathing method suitable for each person through this combination of internal and external breathing.

After Ren felt and operated the new Bear King Breathing Method for a while, he suddenly remembered what Master Gunther said before - "When you feel the energy in your body, try to guide it into your sword! "

Renn's heart moved slightly.

Does Master Gunther mean to guide this mysterious energy out and attach it to the sword?

Obviously, the master's words should be the key to passing the fourth training task - 'Kill thirty offshore crazy fish in one hour'.

So, at the bottom of the sea, Ren tried to mobilize this mysterious energy in his body to his shimmering giant sword.

When he focused his consciousness on that mysterious energy, it did have a certain effect. This mysterious energy began to swim from the body to the arm, but the other party did not completely obey Ren's command.

When it reaches the arm, it no longer obeys, but wanders around in circles.

It is like a child struggling to catch a slippery and strong eel in a rice field. The child tried his best and tried his best, but he could only catch the tail and could not pull the eel out of the hole.

Ren was silent!

After thinking about it for a while, I guessed that this was probably because I was not proficient enough in the new Bear King Breathing Method.

Is there any faster way to improve proficiency than adding points?

Ren plans to add some skill points to the new Bear King Breathing Technique.

However, after thinking about it, he still read the system prompts first:

[You have practiced the Bear King Breathing Technique, and your related understanding has improved! 】

[Your skill Bear King Breathing Technique has been improved, experience value +5]

Thirty minutes have just passed, and the Bear King Breathing Technique has only improved by 5 points, which means that it will take 20 days to practice the Breathing Technique for ten hours a day to raise it to lv6.

But the crux of the matter is that even with the physical fitness of a peak knight, it is impossible to practice breathing techniques for ten hours a day, and it will be as good as two or three hours.

So, this time span is actually much longer.

Obviously, without the cooperation of special drugs or means, the only way to improve the Bear King Breathing Technique is to slowly polish it over time.

This time, without hesitation, Renn added 1 skill point to the Bear King Breathing Technique.

On the attribute panel, the remaining skill points increased from 6 to 5, while the Bear King Breathing Technique was suddenly increased from lv5 to lv6 (1/3000).

With the Bear King Breathing Technique, it was upgraded to lv6.

In an instant, a scattered training memory about the Bear King Breathing Technique was instilled in Ren's mind.

These scattered memory fragments of breathing method training flashed through Ren's mind like a picture, and then, like instinct, they were integrated into the memory of the body's muscles and fascia.

When Ren opened his eyes again, it was as if he had gone through half a year of hard training in the Bear King Breathing Technique.

At this moment, he clearly felt that the blood circulation in his body was accelerating, as if he was hammering iron next to a burning furnace in a blacksmith shop, and the muscles and fascia in his body became tougher and stronger.

But the most important change is that the trace of mysterious energy in the body is traveling and strengthening at an extremely fast speed. Soon, it has doubled several times, from one trace to several strands, and finally to a thin wisp. .

At this time, Ren tried again and when he guided it to the big sword, it was obviously much better.

After several attempts, I finally succeeded!

This time, the gigantic shimmering sword suddenly lit up with an almost undetectable faint glow.

Ren knew that this should be what Master Gunther said.

"Wow!" Ren rushed out of the sea and shouted to Basque on the shore: "Basque, I want to do it again, now help me throw some round tubeworms down."

Basque heard Ren's shout and immediately nodded: "Okay, Ren!"

In fact, Basque has been waiting on the shore for a long time. He has been waiting for when Renne will start to challenge the fourth training task, because he feels that it is very likely that Renne will complete the task today.

Of course, there may be one or two differences.

After all, yesterday, Renne had killed twenty-six offshore crazy fish in one hour. It could be said that he was only a stone's throw away from the mission target of thirty fish.

In fact, it's not just Basque who is paying attention to Rennes' news.

Ren's shout as he emerged from the sea immediately attracted several young people around him who were also practicing killing crazy fish offshore.

They all looked sideways and focused their attention on Ren on the sea.

Over the past few days, after seeing Renne's killing speed getting faster and faster, approaching the thirty targets required to complete the mission, they also wanted to see what this 'newcomer' who had just arrived would do. This fourth training task will not be completed today.

"Plop!"

A round tubeworm was thrown into the sea not far from Rennes by Basque!

Suddenly, the four or five offshore crazy fish around them started to move when they heard the wind. They caused ripples from the nearby sea and attacked the twisting round tube worm from the sea.

Seeing this, Ren took a deep breath, used the Bear King Breathing Technique, and dived into the water again, but this time, he chose to take the initiative and swam towards the crazy fish offshore.

Facing the fastest and closest offshore mad fish, Renn slashed hard with his two-handed sword, tearing a hole in its hard fish head, and strands of light red blood seeped out and merged into the sea. .

But because Renn failed to mobilize that ray of mysterious energy, the damage caused by this blow was not much different from before.

It's just a little stronger than before. This is most likely because the new 'Bear King Breathing Technique' has entered level 6.

"Hey!"

Next sword!

Still unable to mobilize!

The big sword only gave the offshore mad fish an extra wound that was deep enough to show the bones.

But the third sword!

Rennes successfully mobilized!

I saw the gigantic shimmering sword, with an almost imperceptible light, slashing towards the middle of the offshore crazy fish's body!

"laugh!"

Under this blow, the opponent's strong and thick fish scales and subcutaneous exoskeleton did not cause much trouble to the bright sword, and it was directly split into two pieces by the sword!

It felt like to Ren that he had been cutting meat with a dull, rusty kitchen knife before, but just now, he had suddenly replaced it with a brand new Zwilling kitchen knife.

This power first shocked Renn!

But then, there was great joy!

You know, it used to take at least two minutes to kill an offshore crazy fish Ren, but now, once he can mobilize this mysterious energy, he can kill it with one blow.

This is simply a qualitative change and improvement!

And just now, it took Ren more than ten seconds to kill the first offshore crazy fish.

Faced with the second attacking offshore crazy fish, Renn felt a little excited because he didn't even remember to appreciate the sword strike just now, it was over like that!

This time, I have to feel it well.

In less than three minutes, Renne killed five offshore crazy fish!

But Renn in the sea, holding the big sword in his hand, still looked like he was still unfinished, as if he was still feeling the difference.

but

Renne's killing efficiency shocked Basque on the shore!

I saw that he was so busy that he threw another round tubeworm into the sea.

Although Renne's killing speed was extremely fast, it was impossible for Renne to intercept all the offshore maniac fish rushing towards the round tube worm, so the round tube worm just now had already entered the belly of the offshore maniac fish.

However, this was also its last meal, because less than two minutes later, this offshore crazy fish was killed by Ren on the spot.

The other young people on the shore were even more shocked when they saw Basque throwing out the second round tubeworm in less than three minutes!

You know, whether it was Ren or Frode, the frequency of helping to throw round tube worms on the shore was almost every six or seven minutes. Frode was slightly slower than Ren, almost. Seven minutes.

But this time, Basque began dropping day two roundworms in less than three minutes.

Could it be that Renne just took out four or five offshore crazy fish in just three minutes?

this.

Unlikely!

Could it be that there were too few offshore crazy fish attracted, just three?

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, quite shocked!

But they immediately stopped what they were doing and began to concentrate, observing how many offshore crazy fish the second round tube worm dropped by Basque attracted.

One piece.

two

This time it’s six!

They kept this number in mind silently.

Next, of course, it’s up to Rennes’ performance.

However, Ren in the sea discovered at this time that the ray of mysterious energy still failed to work at times when mobilized. In addition, it was extremely powerful in battle but not durable.

Just now he mobilized mysterious energy to kill five offshore crazy fish, but this ray of mysterious energy was almost reduced by nearly half!

In other words, if there is another round, this mysterious energy will be basically consumed.

Sure enough, more than three minutes later, after Renn killed the second wave of six offshore crazy fish, the mysterious energy was completely exhausted.

This time, everyone on the shore was stunned!

Such killing speed!

How could it be so fast?

I'm afraid the goddess's illegitimate son is no more than that!

However, on Renn's side, due to the lack of the blessing of mysterious energy, the natural killing speed has been greatly reduced. However, there is still no problem in completing the task of thirty offshore crazy fish within one hour.

So, Renn felt silently while killing.

He discovered that the generation of this mysterious energy seemed to originate from the physical body, and that the generation speed was quite slow.

Ren estimated that it would take almost half a day to restore the previous state.

Perhaps, when he practices the Bear King Breathing Technique, he may speed up his recovery.

But basically, once it is exhausted in a battle, it is highly unlikely to be recovered and used again.

With the eleven offshore crazy fish in the first two times, Renne successfully killed the target of thirty offshore crazy fish in 48 minutes this time.

When he came out of the sea, he found that everyone, including Master Gunther, was waiting for him on the shore.

"Very good, Renn. You have completed the requirements of the fourth training mission." Master Gunther looked at the wet Renn with a smile.

Renn smiled and said. "Master, can I start the next training?"

"Don't worry! Your breathing method should have changed. You should stabilize it these days." Master Gunther smiled, but did not agree to Renne to continue with the next training.

Um?

this

Ren was helpless.

After thinking about it, Ren finally asked: "Master, can you first introduce the content of the subsequent training tasks?"

When the young people around him heard this, they all stopped what they were doing and listened with concentration.

Although Master Gunther was a little curious as to why Ren was anxious about the follow-up training, he only thought it was because Ren was curious, so he didn’t think much about it and began to introduce:

"The fifth and final training mission."

"I prefer to call this a 'trial of faith', and it is not a required training task. However, I have always believed that only by experiencing this can one fully understand and master the Force."

The Force?

It turns out that the mysterious energy in his body is called the Force.

However, it looks so familiar, as if I’ve heard it somewhere.

Jedi?

Ren suddenly had an idea.

But let’s not talk about it yet, it’s really similar!

It seems that the concept of the Force in a certain blockbuster movie in the previous life is a certain strange energy generated from the body.

Just listen to Master Gunther continue to say: "If you don't do the 'Trial of Faith', there will be no problem."

"After you go back and slowly polish it for a few years, it will all come naturally, and the 'Trial of Faith' only accelerates this process."

Ren understands that this fifth item is very dangerous, but it is also very effective and can save several years of time.

After thinking about it, Renn said without any hesitation: "Master, I want to try it!"

"I want to try to complete the 'Trial of Faith'!"

"However, the specific content of the 'Trial of Faith' is"

"Kill the offshore plesiosaur!" Master Gunther said seriously with a solemn expression.

"hiss!"

There was a gasping sound all around!

Especially Basque, his eyes were wide-eyed, looking inexplicably horrified.

Soon, whispers began!

"Offshore Plesiosaur? This is such a large and ferocious beast! Its combat power is comparable to that of a great knight among humans!"

"No matter how strong Ren is, he can't be as good as the Great Knight!"

“Has anyone really completed this ‘test of faith’?”

"This is too difficult. Looking at it this way, the previous four events are just like children playing house. This is the fatal training."

"."

Since Basque is a native of the Gold Coast, he naturally knows about offshore plesiosaurs, and he has personally witnessed the terrifying combat power of offshore plesiosaurs.

Once an adult offshore plesiosaur comes ashore, it has the power to destroy a human town.

The opponent is covered in thick scales, close to the size of a child's fist, and its defensive power far exceeds that of the offshore crazy fish. For an ordinary formal knight to attack its scales, it would be an itch.

Unless you use giant crossbows or bronze cannons, otherwise, a big knight will have to appear to drive or kill the opponent.

Hearing everyone whispering, Master Gunther looked at Ren and saw that his expression was still calm. He couldn't help but nodded slightly, approvingly in his heart.

After thinking about it, Master Gunther looked at Ren and said, "Ren, you should feel the force in your body, but it should be difficult to use it freely, right?"

"Yes, Master." Renn nodded and said.

"Because only by believing in yourself and having firm and clear beliefs can you be able to mobilize it freely!"

"And it is difficult for a person to have firm and clear beliefs out of thin air."

"So like a cult, it relies on prayer rituals time and time again to strengthen the believers' beliefs. In every miraculous ritual, the believers' beliefs are established and strengthened!"

"This is also the reason why those cultists were finally able to use the power of the evil god. They gave up believing in themselves and instead believed in the evil god."

"And we need to go through difficult battles and various difficult tests to strengthen our beliefs and make them pure!"

"When your faith is extremely firm, you will believe in the sword in your hand and believe that it can cut through everything!"

"If you understand this truth, you can mobilize the original power of your body and become one with the sword in your hand."

Ren nodded and remained silent!

He can understand the purpose of the 'Trial of Faith'.

This is similar to the barbarian life and death trial that Lagret once mentioned.

That is, at the critical moment of life and death, people's potential is stimulated, but the purpose is different.

The purpose of Master Gunther's 'Trial of Faith' is for a person to strengthen his or her own beliefs and thus be able to freely use the Force!

The purpose of the previous four trainings is actually for the 'trial of faith', to prepare yourself and increase the probability of success! Renxin said.

"But Ren, don't think about the 'test of faith' now. What you have to do now is to stabilize your breathing technique first."

"In a month, when you have adjusted well, we will do this last item." Master Gunther said with a smile.

"Master Gunther, can I choose to kill the offshore plesiosaur in three days?" Ren said bravely.

Of course he understood Master Gunther's intention, and also knew that the master's arrangement was the most reasonable.

but.

"Huh?" Gunther frowned visibly, looking unhappy.

It's not easy to find a good prospect, so he just said so much. The main meaning is that he hopes Renne can play steadily.

three days

Three days is enough for what!

It’s not enough time to just stabilize the new breathing method!

Not to mention, letting the new breathing method gradually enhance a person's physical conditions such as strength and speed, thereby accumulating enough foundation to challenge the 'Trial of Faith'.

Going to fight an offshore plesiosaur now, the risk is almost several times higher than a month later.

After hearing Ren's words, the expressions of most of the people on the side changed from the original admiration or appreciation to an expression of 'Ren, you are so lost', looking at Wren.

A few of them couldn't hold it in any longer and murmured softly: "What are you thinking about, Ren, so impatient?"

"Originally, I thought Ren was a very calm person, but I didn't expect that."

"Yes, this is the first time I have seen Master Gunther say so much. Ren is a bit ignorant."

"."

Renn also knew that making this request would inevitably make Master Gunther have a bad impression of him.

But there is no way, he has no time.

"Master Gunther, because in three days, I will leave here and return to Meist County."

"So, I don't want to have any regrets!"

"Besides, please believe me, I won't joke with my life!"

Ren looked at Master Gunther and said seriously.
