Chapter 106: Breath of the Storm
"As expected, the power of this martial art depends on the concentration of Life Force," Robin muttered softly, his tone tinged with admiration, "With my current Life Force reserve, the Half‑Moon Slash's power can rival a Legendary Knight's full‑force strike."
Robin knew this martial art would become a major weapon in his future battles.
Whether facing the Wizard Council, the Round Table Council, or the Black Wizard Covenant, the Half‑Moon Slash will be one of his strongest trump cards.
Open System Panel to check.
Half‑Moon Slash Stage One: Effective attack range ten meters, power equivalent to a Legendary Knight's full‑force strike, each hit consumes 100 Life Force. Experience: 5/1000
Robin instantly understood why the Half‑Moon Slash, such a formidable move, was gathering dust in the study.
A normal Legendary Knight's Life Force is only about 3000, meaning at most thirty uses per day, and Life Force recovery also takes time.
Even an ordinary Legendary Knight, after training the Half‑Moon Slash, needs at least a year to reach Stage Two, assuming no daily battles and enough Life Force reserve for emergencies.
The Half‑Moon Slash's great power excites him, and the Life Force consumption is no problem at all.
His Life Force has already broken the ten‑thousand mark, far exceeding the limit of ordinary Legendary Knights.
Moreover, he has a new Breathing Method training slot, enough to boost his strength dramatically in a short time.
"Half‑Moon Slash Stage One… power equivalent to a Legendary Knight's full‑force strike, consuming 100 Life Force," Robin muttered softly, his tone tinged with excitement, "With my Life Force reserve, using it hundreds of times a day is no issue. Besides, I also have the Dragon Devouring Breathing Method to quickly restore Life Force, so there's no need to worry about consumption."
Robin swiftly stood up, grabbed the Great Horse Leather Warrior Steel Tang Sword, and walked to the manor's training ground.
He must quickly cultivate the Half‑Moon Slash to a higher level, so that he can seize the initiative in future battles.
On the training ground, Robin began to perform the Half‑Moon Slash over and over again.
Each swing of the sword emitted a brilliant crescent‑shaped light from the blade, soaring toward the distant target. The targets were shattered one after another, and Robin's Life Force was rapidly draining.
He did not stop, but continued to operate the Dragon Devouring Breathing Method, quickly restoring Life Force and continuing his cultivation.
【Half‑Moon Slash Stage One: Experience +1】
【Half‑Moon Slash Stage One: Experience +1】
【Half‑Moon Slash Stage One: Experience +1】
The experience values on the System Panel kept jumping, and Robin's Half‑Moon Slash proficiency was rapidly increasing.
As long as he persists, he'll soon be able to cultivate the Half‑Moon Slash to Stage Two, or even higher.
After a few hours, Robin finally stopped training. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the data on the System Panel, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
【Half‑Moon Slash Stage One: Experience 105/1000】
"At this rate, in at most ten days, I can cultivate the Half‑Moon Slash to Stage Two," Robin muttered softly, his tone tinged with anticipation.
The Half‑Moon Slash's power will continuously increase as its level rises.
Once cultivated to Stage Two, the Half‑Moon Slash's power will far surpass a Legendary Knight's full‑force strike, possibly matching even stronger opponents.
Robin's diligent cultivation was observed by Viscount Wilke, who nodded in satisfaction.
Viscount Wilke, full of pride, said, "Great Knight Zaxim, what do you think of my son?"
He has seen many other nobles' offspring; at Allen's age, becoming a senior Knight apprentice is already something to thank the heavens for.
In the entire West, only a handful become Knights at eighteen or nineteen, so Viscount Wilke has reason to be proud.
Great Knight Zaxim is the chief Great Knight of Viscount Wilke's domain, a Great Knight Late Stage; at his age, a future breakthrough beyond Legendary Knight is certainly possible.
Great Knight Zaxim said, "Young Master Allen has extraordinary talent and trains diligently; his future achievements are limitless."
Viscount Wilke, hearing Zaxim's praise, smiled even brighter. He patted Zaxim's shoulder, his tone tinged with pride, "Zaxim, you're right. Allen this child has worked harder than others since childhood. Now he is already a Knight; his future achievements will surely be limitless."
Great Knight Zaxim nodded, his gaze turning to Robin on the training ground, a hint of admiration in his eyes, "Viscount, Young Master Allen's talent is indeed rare.
His Life Force reserve far exceeds his peers, even surpassing some Great Knights. Moreover, his combat techniques are highly refined, clearly the result of rigorous training."
Viscount Wilke chuckled, his tone carrying a hint of sentiment, "Indeed, Allen this child has been wandering since youth, surviving by being a militia member, a wandering mercenary; he's seen many battles, unlike those greenhouse flowers."
Great Knight Zaxim nodded, then whispered, "Viscount, Young Master Allen's strength is already sufficient to serve as the domain's Knight Captain. If you agree, I can hand over command of the Knight unit to him, allowing him to gain combat experience."
Viscount Wilke pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Very well, leave this to you to arrange. However, you must pay close attention to Allen's safety, after all he is still young and inexperienced."
Great Knight Zaxim solemnly nodded, "Viscount, rest assured, I will personally mentor Young Master Allen and ensure his safety."
Since he will assume the role of domain Knight Captain, this also means Robin can formally cultivate the Wilke Family Inherited Breathing Method.
Robin pushed open the study door and saw Viscount Wilke seated behind the desk, holding a hefty volume.
The study walls were lined with portraits of the Wilke family's ancestors, and a faint scent of oil permeated the air.
"Father, are you looking for me?" Robin asked softly, his tone tinged with respect.
Viscount Wilke looked up, a gentle smile on his face, "Allen, come in. I have something to discuss with you."
Robin nodded and walked to the desk to sit down.
Viscount Wilke pushed the book toward Robin, his tone solemn, "Allen, you have proven your strength and potential. As the heir of the Wilke family, it is time for you to formally cultivate the family's Inherited Breathing Method."
Robin's eyes fell on the book's cover, where a few rustic characters were engraved — "Wilke Family Inherited Breathing Method: Breath of the Storm".
"Breath of the Storm…" Robin whispered the words, a spark of excitement flashing in his eyes.
Viscount Wilke nodded, his tone proud, "Exactly, this is our Wilke Family Inherited Breathing Method, only core members of the family may cultivate it.
The Breath of the Storm can greatly enhance a Knight's speed and burst power, especially in combat, allowing you to sweep enemies like a storm."
