Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 8, Second Stage, Special Effect [Intermediate Vibration] (Please continue reading)

Levi-Schneider ———

Black Serpent Breathing Technique: Level 2 (1002/5000)

Golden Cross Slash: Tier 2 (3/5000), Special Effect: Medium Vibration

……

"The special effects have been upgraded to medium vibration."

Li Wei drew Frostmourne, his body and arms trembling rapidly as the muscle memory of his power technique was instantly unleashed.

The mournful sound of Frostmourne pierced the void.

Clang!

Clang!

A beautiful cross appeared, gleaming coldly.

The ordinary wooden stake, about the size of a bowl, was divided into four neat sections by Li Wei.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +1]

He then changed his target to the black dragon wooden stake.

The same force and technique.

This time, the Cross Slash only managed to cut an inch into the black dragon's wooden stake before becoming immobile.

Li Wei pulled the sword out forcefully and sheathed it.

"Phew, the effect of the intermediate-level vibration force is quite obvious. At least it can cut through ordinary wooden stakes with one sword, but it's still far from enough for the black dragon wooden stakes."

"It seems that I will only be able to achieve the same effect as the Fred Knight after I reach the third rank and master advanced vibration power."

"As for the power of ripples, it will probably require grinding to the fourth tier."

The time required to go from level one to level two is not long, after all, it only requires 1,000 experience points.

However, the difficulty increases dramatically from the second to the third level.

Whether it's breathing techniques or the Golden Cross Slash, Li Wei has temporarily hit a bottleneck.

The next breakthrough won't come for at least another six months.

He wasn't in a hurry. After mastering the intermediate level of vibration power, he felt that his strength had improved significantly, but he still lacked some practical training. So he planned to conduct practical training every now and then.

This wasn't the kind of training where the Knights of Frederick held back; it was a real battle.

Li Wei decided to go to the back mountain of his territory to find an opponent; he had already thought of the perfect training partner.

……

The province of Montenegro is named "Montenegro" because of the Montenegro mountain range, which stretches for more than a thousand miles.

The Black Mountain Range is covered year-round by dense black forests, containing all kinds of primeval coniferous forests. Countless ferocious beasts lurk within these forests and snow-covered plains.

Blackwater Valley is located at the foot of a branch of the Black Mountain Range.

Located on the outskirts of the Black Mountain Range, this area has fewer wild animals compared to the depths of the Black Mountain.

The most representative creature in the entire Black Mountain ecosystem is the "Mountain Wolf," which is widely distributed in the northern wilderness of the kingdom. They usually appear in groups of three to five, making them excellent targets for Li Wei's combat.

Based on his experience with basic archery, he believes that proficiency is often gained through actual combat training. And the wolf is undoubtedly an excellent target for such training.

They are natural hunters, with an average shoulder height of over one meter. They are much larger than the largest North American gray wolf in the previous life, and even larger than the extinct "dire wolf".

They were more ferocious and had thicker bones because the Black Mountain was home to many beasts far stronger than themselves.

For example, the "Northern Giant Bear" whose strength is comparable to a knight, or the king-level beasts of the Black Mountain Range, such as the "Silver Saber-toothed Lion" and the "Armored Mammoth," which are comparable to a great knight.

Of course, as a knight's squire, Li Wei would not dare to seek out those powerful beings, nor would he dare to approach a large pack of wolf packs.

His target is a small pack of three wolves or a lone mountain wolf.

With Sir Frederick guarding him, he would be safe even if the Northern Bear appeared.

As for those king-level beasts, they only appear in the core areas, and Li Wei only hunts on the edges, so it is basically impossible for him to encounter them.

Ahead, a plump and strong snow deer was foraging. This is a common herbivore in the Black Mountain. Li Wei would go into the mountains to hunt one every few days when he was training basic archery skills.

For territories with low productivity, hunted venison is a good food source, and most importantly, snow venison is really delicious.

Sir Fred was also an experienced hunter. He was responsible for keeping watch and monitoring the surrounding situation. Levi drew his bow and arrow, easily pulling the bowstring taut with his great strength.

The effective range of this bow is 120 meters. Li Wei is currently about 80 meters away from the snow deer, separated by some dense forest. The deer has not yet spotted Li Wei and is grazing with its head down.

With a whoosh.

With his archery skills at max level, Li Wei naturally couldn't miss.

The arrow, propelled by immense force, pierced deep into the snow deer's head, penetrating its skull.

Soon, the snow deer collapsed to the ground.

"Let's use it as bait. With the wolf's nose, it should be able to smell the blood soon."

"Lord Fred, let's climb the tree."

Li Wei sat in the tree, waiting patiently for his prey to come to him.

Time passed second by second.

Not long after, the howling of wolves echoed from the distant mountains and forests.

"Awooo..."

Immediately afterwards, different wolf howls responded.

"Four."

"Do you need my help?"

"Sir Fred said."

Li Wei shook his head: "I can just take action if I can't beat you. With the armor on, there shouldn't be any problem."

A short while later, four mountain wolves, each as big as a calf, appeared on the woodland below, sniffing the surrounding area warily.

Fortunately, Fred and Levi were both experienced hunters, with Levi being a master hunter who had already specially processed the scent.

In the end, all four wolves gathered around the snow deer's carcass.

The strongest alpha wolf even started tearing open its belly.

Without the alpha wolf's permission, the other wolves, though drooling, dared not begin to eat.

Just now.

A rope descended from the sky, and Li Wei, wearing armor, followed it down, landing heavily on the snow-covered ground, which seemed to tremble.

boom!

The cushioning effect of the snow, combined with Li Wei's strong physique, allowed him to land smoothly.

The alert wolf immediately sensed something was wrong, and after howling for a while without scaring Li Wei away...

Led by the alpha wolf, all the other wolves charged toward Li Wei.

They are extremely fast; even experienced hunters can only run up to the road and into the trees when they encounter them.

Golden Cross Slash!

The sword light from the cross-shaped slash stirred up the ice and snow.

A mountain wolf was struck by the sword light and split into four pieces, its internal organs spilling out onto the ground.

A single, fatal blow; extremely simple and brutal.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +5]

This perfect cross slash gave Li Wei a five-point increase in proficiency.

This has never happened before.

The alpha wolf stared at Li Wei in terror. With its high intelligence, it immediately knew it was no match for the human before it and made a hasty retreat.

"You think you can run away after eating my venison?"

Wolf meat tastes good, so Li Wei naturally wouldn't pass it up.

The territory was too poor; even if he was the lord, he had to hunt for himself if he wanted to eat as much as he wanted.

Li Wei did not use his archery skills, but instead quickly gave chase.

Despite wearing armor, his agility and speed were surprisingly comparable to those of the Mountain Wolf in a short period of time, and he quickly caught up with one of them, using the Golden Cross Slash!

Another wolf was dismembered, its blood splattering onto the armor.

[Golden Cross Slash Proficiency +4]

Thank you, Douyu, for the 100-point reward.
