Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

The climate in the Southern Kingdom is mild. Even though it is close to the end of November, the temperature outside is only slightly cool.

Chu Ming took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, sitting opposite Andrew.

He smiled and asked, "How are you doing? Can you get used to it?"

"I hope there is no memory loss."

Andrew grabbed the purple fruit from the fruit plate on the table and took a big bite. He looked at the wick that had been replaced by the magic crystal in the wall lamp and sighed: "I didn't expect that I would be able to see the magical age thousands of years later. King, you paid for it." It must have taken a lot of effort.”

Andrew didn't have many memories about Chu Ming in his mind, but his sharp thinking allowed him to figure out some things.

However, since Chu Ming did not clarify the matter, he also tacitly agreed not to ask, because he knew very well that even if he asked, Chu Ming would not tell him the truth due to certain restrictions.

He inherited everything from Andrew, including his will, and he will follow Chu Ming to continue on the road to expel darkness.

Until the world ends or the darkness disappears.

Disorganized thoughts flashed through Andrew's mind, and he answered Chu Ming's question.

"Thanks to the power of this body, the inheritance of memory is perfect, and answers to some practical problems can be found in memory."

He joked: "At least when I get back to Niho College, I won't look like a redneck going to town."

Chu Ming couldn't help but smile, "Niho College has moved to the Tianqi Mountains of Fengyang Empire. It may be far more developed than Southern Xinjiang, so you have to be prepared."

Andrew nodded slightly. He seemed to have remembered something. He stood up and looked at Qingyue outside the window, with nostalgia in his eyes.

"I wonder if the Roden Kingdom still exists. Where is the Black Snake Family?"

"King, I want to go back and take a look before you."

Chu Ming said helplessly: "Southern Xinjiang is like a huge whirlpool now, making it impossible for me to escape."

"It's better if you go back first, I can still see the scenery you saw through consciousness communication."

Andrew turned around, raised his palms and stared.

"My current strength is still too weak and I can't help you in southern Xinjiang."

"Staying here is just a burden. I will leave as soon as possible."

"Speaking of which, what do you think of my battle today?"

Andrew looked at Chu Ming, hoping to get his advice.

Chu Ming touched the stubble on his chin and thought: "The enemies in this world no longer only possess brute force like the troll king. They have become more cunning and have all kinds of strange abilities."

"The Gryphon Mystery does give you powerful combat power and wind-like speed, but in the face of enemies with immortality or strong recovery capabilities, the Gryphon Mystery will also appear very powerless."

"And you don't have any means of recovery yourself. In a protracted battle where the enemy is evenly matched, you will become more and more powerless towards the later stages of the battle."

He recalled the nearly immortal golden-scaled monster he encountered in Thorn Flower County, spread his hands and said: "You have two choices now. The first is to concentrate on studying the secrets of the gryphon, and practice the secrets of the secrets, and you will explode." Ability increased to the extreme.”

"In the face of absolute power, the so-called immortality is just fragile paper."

"The second is to find a way to condense the immortality characteristics, or find a way to crack the immortality characteristics. If you can't beat it, just join."

After hearing this, Andrew did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a while.

"The opportunity to condense the characteristics of immortality is rare. I can't place my hope here."

"And I don't have many talents like Wang."

He looked up at Chu Ming, "I'm just a swordsman who can wield a long sword."

"Now that the follow-up of the Griffin Secret Technique is at my fingertips, there are too many unknowns in Niho College in this world that are worthy of my exploration."

"Then why don't I take the purest route? I can't kill the enemy with one sword. It can only be said that my strength is too weak."

The man's eyes were blazing, "As long as you continue to follow the path of a knight, it may not be impossible to kill the gods with a sword."

Chu Ming laughed dumbly, "What a manic tone."

Andrew chuckled and said, "Wang, you should think so too."

Chu Ming said speechlessly: "Do you mean to say that my personality is very arrogant?"

Andrew sat down on the sofa and took a sip of tea, "Wang, I know your character very well."

"You are the most arrogant careerist I have ever seen. This is not a derogatory meaning, it is precisely the highest compliment I can give you..."

Andrew put down the tea cup and did not continue to speak. In fact, he still had one sentence left to say.

Subverting darkness is not something that ordinary people can imagine.

But Chu Ming was able to work firmly in this direction. If An Ming knew that he still had such an enemy, he might have a headache.

"Actually, I have one more thing to do with you tonight."

Chu Ming didn't intend to give it away. He reached into his pocket and took out a sparkling crystal.

"This is?"

Andrew looked at Chu Ming doubtfully.

"This is called a positioning crystal. It allows a space mage or wizard to find my location through mental positioning and teleport there."

Chu Ming put the positioning crystal down on the table and continued: "This crystal was given to me by the law officer Lawrence when I was still in the dwarf city of Beltram in the Kingdom of Reran."

"He once promised me that he would hand over my request to borrow the Code of Laws and Secret Laws back to Fengyang Empire."

"Now that it has been so long, there is finally news."

As he spoke, a smile appeared on Chu Ming's lips, "It's a coincidence that this positioning crystal started flashing shortly after we left the palace."

"Perhaps your appearance prompted something."

Andrew lowered his head and pondered: "You mean that the Griffin Knights of the Demon Kingdom are connected with the Fengyang Empire. After I was born, Captain Argon contacted the Fengyang Army?"

Chu Ming did not deny it: "It is possible, but it may also be a coincidence."

"As for what the answer is, you might as well wait patiently."

Andrew's frown relaxed, "Well, it doesn't matter if my identity is exposed, but it's you, my king, how do you want to explain to them."

Chu Ming sighed, "There is no other way. I originally wanted to be more sincere, but now I can only use some excuses to get past it."

The two of them waited quietly in the living room for a while. At this time, there was a "squeak" sound from the door, and Luticia poked her head in.

Chu Ming glanced at the girl and asked calmly: "Why are you back so late?"

"what?"

The girl didn't expect Chu Ming to be in the living room, and was immediately startled.

Before she came in, she was wondering why the lights were on in the living room. It turned out that Chu Ming had appeared in the living room for the first time, and he was facing the strange uncle she saw today.

Luticia smiled bitterly, pulled Ana out from behind the door with her right hand.

The girl put her hands on her hips and hummed: "It's all Ana's fault. He insisted on going out at night and took me out. Doesn't he know that it's dangerous for girls to go out at night?"

The boy was immediately dumbfounded, "Your Highness, it's not you..." Before he could finish his words, Luticia, who had quick hands and quick eyes, covered his mouth.

"Teacher, Ana said he is sleepy, let's go back and rest first..."

After the girl finished speaking, she quietly dragged the boy into the room.

Chu Ming shook his head helplessly, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Andrew.

The man's eyes were fixed on the positioning crystal on the table and he said, "It's coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space in the hall was distorted, and a silver vortex appeared in front of the two people.

Soon, two figures gradually emerged from the whirlpool, and Chu Ming could see clearly the true face of the visitor.

One of them wore glasses and had an elegant temperament. He was Lawrence, the law officer who had met Chu Ming before.

The other one was an old man dressed as a wizard in gray robes. His long white beard was braided and his face was wrinkled like valleys and ravines.

If it weren't for the slender staff held by the old wizard, he would not even look different from an ordinary old man.

After the old man appeared, he didn't even say hello. His eyes quickly fell on Andrew. He circled around Andrew a few times and murmured: "It's so similar."

Even Lawrence was stunned for a while and murmured: "It does seem..."

Chu Ming quietly looked at the two people who were acting strangely.

After a while, the two finally seemed to realize that this behavior was rude, and they hurriedly coughed lightly to cover up their embarrassment.

Lawrence came to Chu Ming and held hands with him.

The man smiled and said: "Knight Ren, as I said before, I'm here."

After saying that, he seemed to feel something was wrong. He stared at Chu Ming for a while, and the man said hesitantly: "Did you break through?"

Chu Ming chuckled and said: "I have been practicing diligently over the years, and I barely managed to break through to the three-star level of Epic."

As soon as these words came out, the entire living room was silent. Even the old man who followed Lawrence here couldn't help but look away from Andrew and looked at Chu Ming.

Lawrence's face was extremely stiff and he smiled bitterly: "I know you are a genius, but this is too alarmist."

Some people only break through to epic status when they are over 100 years old, while some people are already close to becoming legends when they are over 30 years old.

Such a terrifying cultivation level made Lawrence even more grateful for his original decision.

If the empire missed such a talented knight, I'm afraid he would regret it for the rest of his life.

In the past few years, he had indeed persuaded Niho College and the Legion to agree to Chu Ming's request, but the Legion was stuck in the Violet Principality and had no time to examine Chu Ming's talent.

Therefore, he and the old wizard came to the Demon Kingdom this time to prepare not much, and the empire had no plans to open the legend inheritance to Chu Ming.

Even if he wanted to cultivate Chu Ming, there was nothing he could do.

But now the situation seems to have changed. In just the past few years, Chu Ming has been promoted from Epic One Star to Epic Three Stars, and it is also related to another purpose of their trip.

Even the seniors next to him had to re-examine Chu Ming.

The old man stepped forward and chuckled: "Young man, I am Marcus Stephen, a wizard from the Third Legion of the Empire, a bad old man in his 200s."

Chu Ming held the old man's hand and said politely: "Hello, Mr. Marcus, welcome to the Demon City."

"Um……"

The old man nodded with a smile on his face, and he looked at Chu Ming with more and more satisfaction.

With such an amazing talent and rare humility, his affection for Chu Ming immediately increased.

At the same time, he also vaguely understood why Lawrence praised this young knight from southern Xinjiang in the legion meeting.

"Hahaha, Mr. Lane, you're welcome."

The old man laughed and turned his attention to Andrew.

"Who is this young gentleman?"

Andrew said calmly: "Hello Mr. Marcus, you can call me Andrew."

Marcus was shocked when he heard this, but he quickly concealed his shocked expression.

The old man coughed lightly and said, "To tell you the truth, we had not yet entered the border of the Demon Kingdom this morning."

"But when I heard the news from the boy Argon that a new knight in the Griffin Knights was going to study at Niho College, the old man led Lawrence to speed up."

Hearing this, Chu Ming and Andrew looked at each other.

Argon didn't know that Andrew was a puppet, nor did he know that Andrew's memories came from Chu Ming.

In this way, it seems that only Andrew has been exposed, and Chu Ming has not yet been exposed.

Andrew came back to his senses and cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Marcus, thank you for your trouble."

Marcus waved his hand, and Lawrence on the side said eagerly: "May I ask, Mr. Andrew, where are you from?"

Hearing these words, a flash of understanding flashed in the eyes of Chu and Ming.

As expected, Marcus and the two didn't know Andrew's identity as a puppet being, and Senior Sister Trina and the others didn't tell the news.

That way it will be fine.

After the two communicated secretly with consciousness, Andrew pretended to have a headache, covered his head and said: "Sorry, Mr. Marcus, I have lost my memory and can't remember where my hometown is."

"When I woke up, I only had some memories of the Griffin Mystery. It was Mr. Renn who helped me obtain the power of the Griffin Mystery."

Marcus' eyes lit up, and he quickly asked regardless of the impression: "Do you still remember what level of power you had when you woke up?"

Andrew "hesitated" for a moment, "I'm not sure. Mr. Lane said that I am at the blue level, but those dark blue knights seem to be a little weak..."

Marcus took a breath. On the way to the Demon Kingdom, he also sneered at Argon's statement that a young knight who looked like the heroic knight Andrew appeared in the Demon Kingdom.

Looking at it now, it turns out that Argonne kid really didn't lie.

The old man still remembers the first portrait he saw in the Knights’ Corridor of Honor when he followed his teacher to Niho College for the first time.

That was a knight standing among corpses and blood. He was the legendary knight Andrew, the first president of Niho College's current record.

The pain and struggle of the dark ages have long gone, and the knights in this world, even those from Niho College, do not have deep memories of the first dean Andrew.

Although he was still a young wizard at that time, he remembered Andrew's deeds better than most knights, and the touch left by that figure on him continues to this day.

Unexpectedly, he was able to meet a young knight also named Andrew in the Southern Kingdom, and he was so similar to that hero.

The way he looked at Andrew changed.

At this moment, the old man believed in the existence of fate.

The reincarnation of a hero is not impossible, and perhaps everything is the thread of destiny controlled by gods.
