Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 134 A fully-fledged wizard, living to be two hundred years old! (1st update! Please subscribe!)

Mr. Winster was a very elegant gentleman. He wore a wool coat and a gold-plated monocle over his left eye, the lens of which was made of some kind of gemstone and shone beautifully in the sunlight.

He ordered a drink and lazily read a book in the afternoon sun.

He seemed out of place in this noisy tavern.

Li Wei ordered two glasses of unnamed wine.

They came before Mr. Winster.

Vincent frowned slightly as he looked at the burly man who had suddenly appeared.

Li Wei tried his best to show a friendly smile.

"Sir, do you mind if I sit here?" Li Wei said politely.

Vincent shook his head: "Please do as you please."

He continued drinking, focused on his own business.

"My name is Geralt the White Wolf, Lord Vincent. Would you mind if we went to a private room to discuss some matters?" Levi changed the subject, looking at Vincent and speaking softly.

Vincent's expression changed slightly.

He didn't know why Geralt, the White Wolf, knew his name, but judging from the other's appearance, he was definitely after him.

"Rest assured, Your Excellency, I mean no harm," Li Wei said with a shrug.

Wen Si nodded and went to Li Wei's private room.

"Geralt is an alias, isn't it?" Vincent suddenly asked after entering the private room.

"Winchester isn't real either, is he, Lord Winchester?" Levi said with a half-smile.

Winston's eyes flickered slightly, then he took a sip of his drink and said calmly, "Let's go, let's talk somewhere else. This isn't the place for a conversation."

"Can."

After the last batch of wheat was harvested.

The massive migration of people from the Blackwater Valley has begun.

Looking at the territory where he had lived for more than a decade, Li Wei was filled with emotion.

"We've survived so many enemies, but in the end, we couldn't withstand the natural disaster," Li Wei sighed.

The Blue Frost Disaster is more terrifying than any natural disaster.

He visited Heishan City during this period.

Black Mountain City is a scene of hell on earth.

The snow demon wreaks havoc, and mortals suffer.

The kingdom's army suffered heavy losses and was forced to withdraw from Black Mountain City.

Black Mountain City has a much larger population than Ice Valley City.

The outbreak of a snow monster disaster in such a city is dangerous for the entire North.

Therefore, Li Wei chose to migrate south.

In fact, it wasn't just him.

Many lords chose to migrate south.

These lords either bought southern territories at high prices, or went to the dangerous wilderness of the south to cultivate unclaimed lands, or directly became dependent on some of the major lords in the south.

Many of the once high-ranking lords of the North became refugees after the Snow Demon Catastrophe broke out.

The shrewd nobles in the south seized the opportunity to make a fortune.

Li Wei didn't need to buy land; he already had existing territory in the south.

Tulip collar and storm collar.

After much deliberation, he decided to take control of Tulip Territory.

Although some troubles may be encountered next.

But it's better than waiting to die in the North.

Moreover, given our strength, if we take over the tulips now, the kingdom probably won't say anything.

In any case, Li Wei will definitely face some challenges when he moves to the south, and he is mentally prepared for it.

Li Wei prefers to keep a low profile and doesn't like to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of trouble.

I developed this breathing technique not to make myself suffer.

Along the way, the Crimson Blood Cavalry led the way, and some inconspicuous bandits and wandering knights were easily crushed.

Sam is now a prospective knight, and if all goes well, he has a chance to become a full-fledged knight within the next few years.

As a formal knight he had personally trained, Levi felt a sense of accomplishment.

"My lord, if we go to Flower City like this, won't the great nobles in the south kick us out?" Sam was a little unsure.

Although Li Wei is nominally the lord of the Tulip Territory.

However, since the Civil War, everyone knows that the Bloody Earl has actually controlled Tulip City.

The war is over now. Although the Bloodthirsty Earl is dead, the City of Flowers is still garrisoned by the King's army, led by one of the Seven Divine Swords of the King.

In Sam's view, the royal family's attitude was quite clear.

That is, the City of Flowers will not be handed over to Baron Levy, its true owner, for the time being.

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Levi patted Sam on the shoulder.

Then he looked ahead.

Li Wei has been keeping a low profile for too long. It's only right that he occasionally reveals a little bit of his strength to earn a little bit of the respect he deserves.

……

Flower City.

Inside the city, the "Red Willow Divine Sword," one of the Seven Divine Swords of the King, is being practiced.

As the second of the Seven Divine Swords of the King, he is second only to the Kingdom's Guardian Sword and is the kingdom's top swordsman.

The Red Willow Divine Sword itself looks just like a sharp sword.

He is not only incredibly strong, possessing the strength of a top-tier Grand Knight.

He was also the son of the Duke of Red Willow, a prominent noble family in the south.

The Duke of Red Willow has always been very close to the royal family.

Especially after the Civil War.

The Red Willow family, as major contributors to suppressing the rebellion in the north, was highly valued by the royal family.

Therefore, the important task of temporarily guarding Flower City was entrusted to a great figure like Red Willow Divine Sword, who possessed both strength and prestige.

Guarding another important city, Stormwind, the Black Mountain stronghold, is the Kingdom Sword, the foremost of the Seven Swords of the King. This is also Baron Livy's territory.

Perhaps no one would guess who owns these territories.

They're already on their way south.

Li Wei has now arrived in the warm south.

To avoid drawing too much attention, he only brought the three giant bear brothers from the North during this southward migration, and did not bring the two generals, Hum and Ha.

The two generals, Heng and Ha, were too large, so Li Wei planned to wait until his troubles in the south were completely resolved before secretly bringing them over.

Otherwise, it's hard to explain why Livy was able to tame so many giant beasts. Livy wasn't afraid of the kingdom, but he was worried about the church.

Li Wei was sitting on the bear's back, protected by the four demon generals, so he was very safe.

He was aware that he was swimming in "shallow waters," and he tried to dive a little deeper, but failed.

The golden sunlight warmed Li Wei's spirit, and finally, Li Wei's head emerged from this golden sea.

At the same time, he felt his mental strength increase slightly...

[Deep Sea Meditation Proficiency +1]

The notification tone has been set off.

Livy, perched on the bear's back, had also completed his meditation.

"Only one point of proficiency can be gained per day, that's too slow."

Li Wei was troubled.

He opened the proficiency panel.

Li Wei————

Deep Sea Meditation Method: Level 1 (257/1000)

……

"I've been learning for almost a year and I'm still only at level one. When will I ever reach level three?" Li Wei thought to himself.

No matter how he practices this deep-sea meditation method, the proficiency he gains each day remains a constant 1 point.

After completing a full meditation session, his mental energy will enter a temporary state of fatigue, requiring him to "cool down" until he wakes up the next day before he can continue his practice.

This is completely different from breathing techniques.

As long as his body can keep up with the breathing technique, Li Wei can continue to practice and even work himself to the bone.

But when it comes to meditation, Li Wei can't even muster the energy to do it.

He summoned Tutankhamun and asked, "Tutankhamun, under normal circumstances, how long does it typically take for a wizard apprentice with the talent of a Chaos Child to progress from low to intermediate level?"

Tutankhamun thought for a moment and said, "More than five years, and what you have is only the standard of mental strength. To advance from a low-level wizard apprentice to an intermediate-level wizard apprentice, in addition to having qualified mental strength, you also need to master a certain number of spells. Otherwise, having only mental strength but no spells does not count as a true advancement."

"A truly qualified junior wizard apprentice needs to master at least one zero-ring spell to be considered a wizard apprentice. Without mastering magic, no matter how strong one's mental power is, one has no combat ability. The maximum number of zero-ring spells a junior wizard apprentice can master is three. An intermediate wizard apprentice can master five zero-ring spells, and a senior wizard apprentice can master ten zero-ring spells."

"Mastering ten zero-ring tricks, then mastering at least one true first-ring spell, and having a sufficiently powerful, gaseous mental force in one's mind—that is what it takes to truly step into the threshold of becoming a formal wizard."

Li Wei listened to Tutankhamun's description.

"So, I think my cultivation is progressing quite quickly," he said, making this comparison.

"A formal wizard, it is said that becoming a first-ring wizard grants one a lifespan of two hundred years. This is the difference between a wizard and a knight. Although a great knight is very strong, his lifespan is not much longer than that of a mortal. In essence, there is no difference in lifespan between them. The only difference is that he can avoid some of the diseases and calamities of mortals and live longer."

"Moreover, as the Great Knights age, their vital energy and blood decline, and their strength decreases rather than increases."

"Wizards are different. Wizards generally become stronger the older they get and the longer they live."

"The older the person, the more knowledge and experience they have acquired, the more combat skills they possess, and the more spells they have mastered."

Tutankhamun looked on with envy, and Livy also felt a sense of longing.

The path to becoming a wizard is long and arduous.

However, he believed that the Great Knight was not as bad as Tutankhamun described.

Because the Great Knight is not the end of the Knight's Path.

Although Li Wei had never met the legendary knight, if he died of old age, he should have lived for at least two hundred years...

Moreover, with the proficiency panel, you can continuously fuse breathing techniques to break limits, and the path of the knight, becoming a legendary knight, is not necessarily the end.
