Meanwhile, one could distinctly sense his body swaying like waves in the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if with each breath, his body underwent buoyancy changes in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High kicks, jumping in place... Lann, in his casual wear, sprang up like pulling green onions from the dry ground, his hands reaching a height of nearly four meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Light Body Skill standard training complete, completion rate 88%.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentos's smart voice accurately provided this training evaluation upon Lann's landing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your skill level now, compared to the wolf, is already at thirty percent. Progress is rapid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With winter setting in, the piercing sea wind tousled Lann's silver hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand to tidy the strands blown before his eyes, his expression calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The wolf is a genius ninja; I'm barely maintaining this practice pace with the super high blood oxygen provided by two hearts, but to be honest... even if I train to the same degree as the wolf, Light Body Skill can't become my main combat technique.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he isn't a Ninja; he won't abandon armor that greatly enhances tolerance when facing unknown dangers in the otherworld.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with Light Body Skill, even the Eight Hundred Nuns who've trained for god knows how many years dare only perform it wearing loose monk robes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Either enchant the armor with runes to make it lighter, or I need to push the Interstellar Warrior surgery to the transplantation of the Third Lung, relying on its extraordinary breathing efficiency to lift bricks easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Light Body Skill relies on breathing and strength to change buoyancy in the air, achieving lightness without diminishing weight or basic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Third Lung's far-beyond-human-limit breathing efficiency could really enable Lann to wear heavy armor yet remain agile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentos immediately established two mission goals in the system, after weighing them, offered a tip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, given our current progress, the Third Lung seems too distant. But armor enchantment is a feasible choice, given you're at Airetusa Academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lann's initially bland expression turned sour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he's not one to invest thoughts and resources in 'transitional equipment.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In games, he often preferred leveling up faster, pondering equipment combinations only after reaching the top level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spending effort on equipment set to be replaced eventually... that's just exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This armor was high-grade Bear School Armor obtained from Bordeaux, but now, his height's approaching two meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bordeaux was only 1.9 meters tall; given some time, this set of armor definitely needs adjustments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps later, he must begin gathering higher-level Demon Hunter equipment diagrams to tackle unforeseen, multi-tier dangers in the otherworld.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enchanting isn't cheap either!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann slapped his forehead, speaking almost in sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though enchanting is a magical craft inferior to the cutting-edge magic pack technology, walking through a full armor set might cost four or five thousand Oren.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is not a technique prepared for ordinary Warriors or solo Demon Hunters. It's the converter for knights and famous warriors, allowing them a pathway to turn wealth into combat power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann guessed, if such a knight with meticulously enchanted full gear stood armored and ready before a Demon Hunter, it would feel torturous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Count Steza once had the means to assemble a set for himself, but he wasn't renowned as a Warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no battlefield demands, never anticipated one breaking through his manor's defenses alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, placing two hundred warriors and a Warlock steward in the manor made him feel secure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after the night Lann became famous for Hunting Marquis, the demand for enchantment technology on the continent rose, akin to orders for Anti-Magic Gold, climbing, in short supply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann's actions deeply influenced nobles' consumption trends, which in turn affected the entire continent's market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobles hold the bulk of wealth on this continent, and when they collectively make trend-setting consumption decisions, the resultant movement and impact are significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The initiator stirring the market for goods, faced with his 'poverty', covered his face in lament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentos in his brain could not empathize, being a biological mind; it only hoped the host maintained sugar intake to avoid hunger, without concern for other things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately though, from the perspective of those capable, 'lacking money' appears merely short-term discomfort. Lann perceives himself as competent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He indeed has a preliminary idea to improve his long-term financial status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demon Hunter quickly readjusted his mood, reengaging in morning exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He will soon begin practicing the \"Immortal Peak Temple Martial Arts Manual\" given by Black Conical Hat Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This martial arts set's air hammer technique sparked his inspiration, within the footsteps rich in Eastern characteristics, his punches and kicks upon landing can explode a layer of air originally enveloped around the limbs outward, forming additional shock waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To outsiders in this world, this technique that mobilizes, compresses, releases air seems like magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least in Airetusa's high-level headmistress chamber, Tishaya before using her sensing believed Demon Hunter developed an Alder's Rune variant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meticulously groomed, impeccably ordered eyebrows slightly furrowed, those eyes, experienced in the vicissitudes yet still beautiful, remained motionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Knowledge of alien worlds... truly something even I find curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Typically, Tishaya, living with utmost regularity, stands at the floor-to-ceiling window watching the sea to relax amidst work, but would promptly sit back down to her chair accurately on the fifth minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, she's observed the Demon Hunter on the terrace for a full half-hour.\u003C\u002Fp>",1173,"2026-06-06T10:40:07.942Z",1,"novelbin.me","d5c5b2da11783663040846a63f118271fccb5319344eaabf97d838b91a443b78","bear-school-astartes-chapter-279","bear-school-astartes-chapter-277",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbear-school-astartes-cover.jpg"]
