Lord: Starting from the Pit-Dwelling Courtyard

Chapter 147 Above the Legend

Talent shines for 20 seconds!

Felix, Cultivation Level: Mid-stage Formal Knight, Physique: 22

Power: 24

Spirit: 10

Life Force: 143

Major: Golden Lion Breathing Technique.

He possesses exceptional talent and is a genius knight whose potential has been wasted. His cultivation of breathing techniques clashes with his own attributes, suppressing his unique characteristics and reducing the effectiveness of his training by 80%. By switching to the Vortex Breathing Technique, he can fully unleash his talent.

Even at the very least, he will achieve legendary status in the future.

Looking at the data and solutions provided by the system, Ron remained silent.

The worst he could be was a legendary knight. This answer surprised Ron. Was there a realm above legendary knight?

"System, what realm lies beyond Legendary?"

The system was silent for a few seconds, then a line of text popped up on the panel.

[This information is outside the scope of current permissions. The system has detected that the host has reduced their mental strength to 100 before querying again.]

"#!" Ron couldn't help but curse.

"Lord Ron!" Felix called out, his face looking rather grim.

He was well aware of how poor his talent was. His peers had already reached the late stage or even the peak of the Knight class, but he was still only in the middle stage, and he had only reached the middle stage after giving it his all, and then he made no progress.

This is why he didn't participate in the large-scale assessment of the territory's talents; knowing he lacked talent, he didn't want to waste his time.

Ron patted Felix on the shoulder: "I'm sorry I only just realized how serious your condition was. It's my fault as lord. From now on, you'll stay by my side!"

Felix asked blankly, "To be your bodyguard?"

The Lord's Guard is currently highly coveted in the territory. According to reliable sources, the minimum entry requirement, and the future minimum achievement, will be Earth Knight.

Just look at Will; his talent is only slightly higher than mine. It would be very difficult for him to break through to become an Earth Knight, which is why he was kicked out of the Royal Guard and sent to Iron Ridge Town to become a military officer.

To others, this is a promotion, but to them, who were born into a family of assassins, it is exile.

"No!" Ron shook his head after hearing this.

Felix felt even more disappointed.

Ron is already considering how to keep Felix by his side. If she's a woman, he'll marry her and take her home as his wife.

But a grown man can't exactly say, "We two swear a blood oath and become sworn brothers."

Ron, forcing himself to speak, made up a story with a straight face: "I've come up with a way to train knights in large numbers, but I need a student I can absolutely trust, someone who will inherit my legacy as a knight."

Felix listened for a long time before suddenly realizing what was happening.

My lord, this is to let him inherit the family's chivalrous tradition.

In the eyes of Felix and all the knights in the territory, Ron, who was not yet a formal knight, could easily guide a group of knights to break through, even to the level of Earth Knight.

He must have inherited the legacy of the Ashwood family, the entire tradition of chivalry.

The development of the territory is increasingly inseparable from the lord, who is already overwhelmed with other matters. Therefore, he wants to inherit the Ashwood family knighthood and help him share the burden.

"My lord!" Felix lowered his voice, "Both Lord Fanta and Lord Doron are more suited for this position than I am."

Ron coughed. "They are indeed more suitable. I chose you because of your loyalty. I have seen your performance all along. Your loyalty and composure are worthy of my trust. Are you willing to help me?"

Felix got so excited that he knelt down on one knee.

"I do!"

Feeling the gazes of those around him, Ron's lips twitched, and he calmly patted Felix on the shoulder: "Very good, from now on you are my follower."

The members of the Chamber of Commerce, upon witnessing this scene, looked at Ron with utter disdain.

Taking advantage of the president's absence, they tried to poach his clients.

A new member of the guild said with a look of disdain, "He's probably another wild lord from some backwater in the Blackthorn Wasteland."

The workers hired to help clean up the construction site immediately chimed in: "You know what, it's really possible. The Blackthorn cleanup just ended, and many territories were destroyed. Even those that survived suffered heavy losses, so they've started poaching people from Gorubak Castle."

One of the original employees who followed Doron in founding the Chamber of Commerce gloated, "Haha, with Felix gone, the chairman will probably be furious."

"Who knows? I'm afraid Felix will regret it after a couple of days once he goes to the wasteland."

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Felix stood up angrily.

Ron quickly grabbed him: "From now on, you are my student. I hope you won't let me down."

"Yes, teacher!"

Ron wasn't sure what effect relying on the master-disciple relationship to bind Felix would actually have, so he could only do his best.

"Come to my place tonight, and I'll teach you a special breathing technique."

"yes!"

Felix suddenly thought of a question: "Teacher, what about Lord Doron—"

Ron waved his hand: "I'll tell him that we'll arrange for new people to help him."

After settling Felix in, Ron headed to the construction site, while Felix began to drive away the guild members and the hired workers.

Standing in the very center of the construction site, Ron closed his eyes, and the 3D projection quickly covered the entire site. He slowly raised his hands.

The building materials that had not yet been cleared, such as stones and wood, were quickly categorized in a corner, and then the foundation was dug. Unlike before, this time, Ron's foundation was only dug to a depth of three meters before stopping.

However, this scene is still very shocking to ordinary people.

"This is an architectural mage! Amazing!"

The foundation was too deep to even build a basement, but given Ron's personality, how could he possibly do something so wasteful? Subsequently, the soil beneath the foundation visibly settled.

Ron used his powerful magic to bombard the construction site with his mage's hand, compacting the ground beneath.

Once you encounter stones, clear them away until the foundation is compacted to a depth of two meters.

This process consumed more than 500 points of Ron's magic power, but fortunately, the Architect Mage's Meditation Technique was constantly running, replenishing his magic power.

Once the foundation was dug, they began to transform the sand and soil excavated from the side into huge stone blocks.

Without using reinforced concrete, the foundation must be sufficiently compacted. Simple blue bricks are not enough; instead, 1000-300mm stone blocks are used to begin construction.

Volcanic ash lime mortar was also added in the middle.

After finishing building everything, Ron looked at Felix.

Felix immediately understood and began to drive all the people on the construction site away. Anyway, the area was surrounded by wooden boards nearly three meters high, so people outside couldn't see inside.

Many people were driven away by Felix. Although they were angry, they obediently left because Felix was still a knight.
