Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 16 Departing from the Capital
midsummer.

On the main road outside Black Snake Town.

The time for admission is approaching, and Chu Ming is ready to go to Nihuo College in the capital to study.

Today is the day he left Black Snake Town.

On this trip, besides him, there was also Knight Ge Hai as a knight attendant.

"Master, you have to pay attention to safety."

Old Jon knocked on his cigarette and reminded worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'm going to study, not to the lair of some dark creatures."

Chu Ming patted Old Qiao En on the shoulder, turned over and got on his beloved black horse.

Ge Hai interjected with a smile: "Young master is right, you old man is always afraid of things, why are there so many bad guys?"

Chu Ming glanced at him, and said in his heart, "That might be..."

Baron Harold stood among the knights with a serious expression.

"Okay, let's go now while it's still early."

"Leave now, and you can also rush to a nearby village to spend the night before dark."

Chu Ming nodded. Baron Harold was right to remind them that if they couldn't find a village or town to spend the night at night, the two of them would have to camp in the wild.

Although he is not afraid of dark creatures, it is quite distressing if he is harassed.

"Goodbye everyone!"

"Master, goodbye!"

Chu Ming and the two rode their horses and ran into the distance. Baron Harold silently looked back and turned back until he could no longer see anyone or hear the sound of horses stepping.

That night, due to the carelessness of an unreliable attendant knight, the two deviated from the planned route and did not arrive at the village in time, and were forced to spend the night in the wild.

by the campfire.

"Master, I really deserve to die."

Ge Hai beat his chest and stamped his feet, tearing up, his eyes full of remorse.

"Okay, it's just the two of us here, don't get too involved and disturb me."

Chu Ming leaned against the tree, flipped through the history books, and replied without raising his head.

"..." Ge Hai scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Isn't it too quiet? I'm a little scared."

"It will be lively enough when you recruit dark creatures."

As soon as Chu Ming said this, Ge Hai immediately shut up.

Shaking his head helplessly, Chu Ming turned his gaze back to the book.

【Servant Knight Ge Hai】

[Quality: Dark Gray]

【Race: Human Race】

[Skills: Life Enhancement (Intermediate), Sword Mastery (Elementary)]

Although Ge Hai is rather stupid and likes to make trouble, he is unexpectedly useful.

This was the first time he found that he could obtain character cards in the history books.

It seems that as long as you establish an affiliation with historical figures, you can get the corresponding cards.

"Doesn't that mean that as long as I become the leader of a certain knight order, I can get the knight card of the entire knight order..."

Chu Ming's eyes flickered slightly, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

"At least I can take Ge Hai's card to authenticate the card master now, without further delay."

"No, I'd better wait a little longer and cultivate this kid's strength to a higher level."

As Chu Ming was thinking, his eyes unconsciously fixed on Ge Hai who was cooking pancakes.

Ge Hai felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and said in fear, "Master, is there something behind me?"

"fine."

Chu Ming shook his head and chuckled lightly.

It was obviously just a very ordinary smile, but Ge Hai felt a chill behind his back, as if he had been invaded by darkness.

And the days that followed confirmed his ominous premonition.

Every morning before the beast came out to look for food, Chu Ming pulled him up to practice swordsmanship.

After the practice, the two started on their way again.

Fortunately, Chu Ming can hang up.

But Ge Hai suffered a lot. Every day he wakes up earlier than chickens and sleeps later than pigs.

Every day while practicing swordsmanship, weeping bitterly.

If it weren't for his physical fitness being different from ordinary people, he would have been tired by now.

Chu Ming is also adhering to the principle of not dying and building hard, and constantly trains him.

Ever since, within a month of going to the capital, Ge Hai's one-month training results are equivalent to the previous year's training results.

Although it is difficult to improve the knight's secret technique, his swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is not far from mastering intermediate swordsmanship.

Port Tello.

This is the closest port to the capital of Lawton Kingdom, and it is also one of the destinations of Chu Ming's trip.

After paying the entrance fee, the two entered the city smoothly.

He had come to Port Tello for two purposes.

One is to get acquainted with foreign towns before entering the capital. In order to avoid encountering trolls and crazy knights, he usually only stayed overnight in villages and small towns, and never entered big towns.

However, Tello Port did not disappoint him. As soon as he came in, the black snake sensed several bad breaths.

The concentration of dark creatures here is far more terrifying than he imagined.

And his other purpose is to go to the acquaintance Baron Harold said - the merchant Grote.

This small merchant from Port Tello was befriended by Baron Harold during his travels in Port Tello when he was young.

Although he is not a close friend, but Baron Harold has the title and the great reputation of Roman ancestors, the merchant Grote can't wait to curry favor with Harold every day.

Walking on the street, with people coming and going, Ge Hai on the side seemed extremely excited.

This was his first time entering a big city, and for a moment, he forgot the painful training on the way.

"Come on, let's visit Mr. Grote first."

"Stop training for a few days."

"What? Great!"

Ge Hai was overjoyed, with tears in his eyes, he held Chu Ming's hand tightly and refused to let go.

"..."

Sensing the strange gazes of passers-by on the street, Chu Ming shook his hand calmly, followed the passers-by's guidance, and walked towards the rich man's residential area.

The two walked for half an hour, crossed a bridge full of smelly fish, and came to the residential area of ​​the rich.

"No. 20 Meiji Street..."

Chu Ming muttered, facing the house number, walked to the end of the road, and a luxurious manor with no end in sight appeared in front of him.

"Is this the small businessman that Baron Harold said..."

He couldn't understand it, but he was shocked.

Just when he was about to knock on the door, Ge Hai, the dog leg beside him, stepped forward.

"Master, I'm coming."

dong dong dong...

There was a crisp metal sound from the iron gate, and after a while, a maid in a black and white dress came out with timid eyes.

The maid sneaked a glance at the two of them first, then lowered her head and asked respectfully, "Two gentlemen, what can I do?"

"I've come to see Mr. Grote."

After speaking, Chu Ming handed a letter to the maid.

"Please wait."

The maid didn't dare to neglect and ran back in a hurry.

After waiting for a while, the maid returned the same way and invited Chu Ming and the two inside.

After placing the horses, the two of them followed the maid into the middle mansion.

"It's really rich."

Looking at the resplendent and resplendent interior of the house, Ge Hai couldn't help exclaiming in amazement when a smell of money came over him.

Even Chu Ming couldn't help sighing in his heart.

"Master, it is these two gentlemen."

The maid stopped and stepped back slowly.

Chu Ming looked ahead and saw an old man standing up slowly from the chair supported by a young woman in the hall.

Grote smiled kindly, "Are you Harold's son?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Ming responded with a smile.

"Old man, you are Mr. Grote."

"Son, come closer and let the old man take a look."

Chu Ming nodded, just as he was about to go forward, suddenly the hairs on his body stood up, and a deadly sense of threat came from the front.

He couldn't help but stop.

"Young man, what's the matter?"

Grote still had a kind look on his face.
