Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 12 Dragon Seal: Weapon Master
The Queen's sister acted swiftly and decisively. Early the next morning, more than a dozen extraordinary people from various professions arrived at the royal training ground on time after being recruited by the royal family.

Effie guards the two largest seaports in the northwest continent and has heavy daily government affairs. The queen only showed up and handed over the summoned professionals to Cohen.

Cohen looked around at everyone. The Queen obviously attached great importance to Cohen's career and recruited experienced veterans.

Cohen pointed to a middle-aged man with a stiff face in the crowd and said:

"What's your occupation?"

The middle-aged man knew that the other party was His Majesty the King. He forced a humble smile on his stiff face and replied awkwardly:

"Your Majesty, I am a 'Knife Fighter' and I specialize in using a scimitar."

Cohen nodded and gestured slightly to the guard beside him.

The guard turned around and took out an unsharpened scimitar, handed it to the middle-aged man, and whispered:

"Be careful not to hurt His Majesty."

The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly.

Cohen said, "Let's get started. Show off your best skills. If you perform well, I will reward you handsomely."

After getting the machete, the nervous middle-aged man's face calmed down a lot and he began to demonstrate his skills meticulously.

Time flies and an hour goes by in a flash.

"Ding!"

The familiar voice made Cohen happy. It was indeed the same as the game in his previous life!
Then came a series of electronic sounds:

"Mastered the use of the 'Cutter'."

Cohen waved his hand to signal the other party to stop, and took the scimitar. He felt a sense of blood connection, as if he had been holding it for many years.

He casually made a few moves, causing the middle-aged man to look surprised. For a moment, he even forgot the other party's identity and could not help but say:

"Have you ever used a machete before?"

"How dare you!" the guard beside him shouted.

The middle-aged man bowed hurriedly, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

Cohen waved his hand and said:
"It's okay! Tang Nuo, call the next one. This gentleman can leave first. I'll give him an extra ten gold coins and ask him to keep it a secret."

The guard named Donno is Snape's nephew. Cohen had previously told Snape about this and arranged him to be by Cohen's side to help cover for him. He is an absolute confidant.

Tang Nuo took the order and left.

Not long after, another professional walked in, this time an elven ranger carrying a longbow.

Another hour passed, and the familiar voice sounded again:
"Mastery of the crossbow."

Similar things happened one after another within this day -

"Mastered the use of the 'Long Sword'."

"Mastered the use of 'Shield'."

"Master the use of 'Dual Hammers'."

……

Finally, after surpassing the tenth weapon, an exciting voice rang in Cohen's ears: "It has been detected that the host is starting the extraordinary career trial - Dragon Seal Weapon Master!"

In previous games, in addition to the official normal advancement sequence, there were also some powerful mysterious professions that were limited to the human race for players to choose from, which were referred to as "secret professions".

These "secret positions" also have very strict requirements for employment.

Even among the "secret positions", Dragon Seal Weapon Master is definitely the most troublesome and time-consuming position on the Demon Tide Continent, but also the most powerful one.

The Dragon Seal Weapon Master is a person who combines magical powers and weapon fighting skills in a dreamlike way. He is not only one of the few professions that can practice both magic and martial arts, but also a super profession that can master the power of dragons.

The dragon power of the giant dragon clan, which comes from the top of the food chain of the Demonic Continent and can compete with the gods, has always been the ultimate power pursued by extraordinary people.

In addition to requiring the incumbent to have the blood of a dragon to engrave the seal, the Dragon Seal Weapon Master must also be proficient in more than ten types of weapons in order to successfully take the position.

If an ordinary person wants to master a weapon, he must practice for at least three years. If he wants to master ten weapons, it will take thirty years. If he continues to advance to the extraordinary level after thirty years, even if his profession is very powerful, his personal potential will be exhausted.

Therefore, almost no indigenous people on the mainland choose this position, and many people even believe that this is a "secret position" that only exists in written records.

However, for players, this problem does not exist at all, because it does not take that long for players to master weapons. They only need to "hang up" with a proficient teacher for an hour to gain the proficiency of "proficiency".

Having mastered all ten weapons, the next step was to use dragon blood to carve the "Dragon Power Conversion Seal" on his hands. The method for engraving the seal had been lost for thousands of years, but for Cohen, it was no problem at all - it was something that was everywhere on strategy forums in his previous life.

In the past, the biggest obstacle for players to advance to this profession was dragon blood. Players in the novice village had no chance to come into contact with dragon blood, a top-grade strategic material.

However, this is not a problem for Cohen, the king of Eifin, because when Eifin was in turmoil and the capital was destroyed in the previous life, a group of players discovered that there was a bottle of real dragon blood in the treasury of the Eifin royal family!

It was because of this bottle of dragon blood in the national treasury that Cohen decided to take up the position of [Dragon Seal Weapon Master].

Although his extraordinary strength was gone, Cohen's soul perception was still sharp, and he knew it was the queen without turning around.

The queen's face was slightly tired, but her voice remained cold:

"Has your Majesty chosen a special career?"

The queen was very pleased to learn from the palace maid that Cohen had actually stayed in the martial arts field for a whole day.

Cohen cast his gaze towards the queen and sighed inwardly:
A powerful wizard close to the legendary level would never look tired after a day of government affairs. The fact that the queen looked like this only showed that destroying a high-level legendary wizard in one move was not without cost. The magic circle that could greatly increase magic power must have caused serious damage to the body and mind.

Yadel has always been like this, always doing things without saying anything. This is probably why I was so cold to her before I awakened my memories of my past life.

Concealing his emotions, Cohen replied:
"I don't think I'm particularly fond of anything. I'll just listen to my sister and choose [Paladin]."

The queen was not surprised and said:

"There's a legendary [Paladin] in the Senate. He's also your father's cousin and student. Starting tomorrow, you'll go study with him."

Cohen's eyes moved slightly, and the image of a dark, thick, and muscular man came into his mind.

Hauge Corleone, his own uncle. As a face-chaser, Cohen had never been close to his "dark, rough and tough" cousin. Hauge himself was also a martial arts maniac who would not listen to anyone except his brother Victor Corleone. The two of them only interacted by having dinner together during festivals.

In the previous life game, Hauge died in the great turmoil in order to protect Cohen. He was one of the few Senate members that Cohen could command.

Cohen was originally worried about how to cover up the treasure hunt in the next few days, but with the help of his uncle Hauge, this problem was solved.

Cohen nodded quickly:

"Okay, sister, I will definitely practice hard!"
