Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 267
"Really good."

The knights nodded in approval.

Combustion takes into account both flame and thunder, and is full of aggressiveness and craziness. It is a tit-for-tat confrontation with darkness, which really suits them.

On top of that, they couldn't think of a better name.

Chu Ming slowly stood up from the chair, "Then it's settled. The Righteous Mercenary Corps will be renamed the Burning Knights, and it will be announced to all the knights on the day when the Mercenary Guild's resident is open. Do you have any comments that need to be added? "

The knights shook their heads one after another, with a hint of expectation in their eyes.

They knew that after the guild resident was built and the Righteous Mercenary Group was renamed the Burning Knights, the Knights would usher in a new beginning, and they would embark on a path completely different from what they had imagined before.

Perhaps this road is full of thorns and challenges, but since they have the opportunity to choose, they will firmly grasp it and never let it go.

What a grand vision it is to become a knight order known throughout the continent. At this moment, the knights only have desire in their hearts, and they have only one chance, and they will continue to move forward without fear of danger.

After confirming the name of the Knights, this brief meeting ended, and Miguel and Nathan hurriedly took the Knights to Vasco Street to help.

With knights carrying logs and chopping wooden pillars, the work efficiency of craftsmen will be greatly improved. Chu Ming estimates that it only takes a few days to hire the guild to rebuild the resident and it will be completed quickly.

After temporarily ending the matter of the Knights, Chu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out of the hotel with Irina.

Irina glanced at Chu Ming quietly, she was very dissatisfied with Chu Ming's rude behavior of ignoring her just now, and muttered in her mouth: "Obviously the dark giant is also very nice."

Chu Ming paused, and then continued to walk towards Brick Castle as if nothing happened.

Although Chu Ming didn't show any expression on his face, he had already made up his mind to let Irina read more books.

The distance from Karen Hotel to Brick Castle is not far, only a few streets away, and the two of them will arrive there in ten minutes on foot.

In fact, when Chu Ming first went out, Valerie suggested that a servant should drive him in a carriage.

However, Chu Ming refused after thinking about it. Firstly, the location of Tulip Street and Karen Hotel are close to Brick Castle. Get to know the city and see how it has changed over the years.

Walking on the street, Chu Ming looked around for a while.

The city of Sauron is indeed the city where the knight family Brick is located. The knight style here is more prevalent than a few years ago. Many of the people passing by on the street are knights from other places. The shining armor is on the street. There was a noise on the road, and Chu Ming walked on the street as if he had strayed into a city where adventurers gathered.

A few minutes later, Chu Ming walked through the central square of the city, walked around the colorful gardens, looked up, and saw the towering castle on the hill behind the spacious castle black iron gate.

Chu Ming took a deep breath and led Irina to the gate of the castle.

"Idlers, please leave this place."

The two guards standing at the gate of the castle glanced at Chu Ming, but they didn't recognize his identity, they just regarded him as some knights who came here for fame and wanted to enter Brick Castle.

Chu Ming smiled faintly, "I'm Ren Brick."

The faces of the two guards froze when they heard the words. Although they had seen many knights who pretended to be members of the Brick tribe and wanted to sneak in, there would also be a Brick knight they didn't know who suddenly appeared in the Brick family. According to the situation, these knights are often on missions and have not returned to the castle for several years, which is very normal.

Their last guard had lost their career as a guard because they underestimated a Brick knight who came back from other places. They didn't dare to gamble their jobs on this possibility.

The two knights looked at each other, and one of them apologized and ran into the castle, as if to check the list of the Brick tribe.

After a while, the guard came back, and with him was a middle-aged man with glasses who looked very gentle.

The middle-aged man looked hurried, and when he saw Chu Ming standing by the door, he froze in place suddenly, his eyes becoming dazed.

"Ren, is that really you?"

Chu Ming's eyes stayed on the man, and the memory surged up in his mind.

The man's name was Hines Brick, and he was the esoteric explanation teacher of the family knight class when Renn was young.

Hines stared straight at Chu Ming, with guilt in his eyes.

In fact, like Rennes, Hines's knight talent is only inferior. He has been trapped in the great knight level for more than 40 years, but he has not been able to make a breakthrough. In the end, he chose to give up and continue to study the secret method Aoyi, then spent a few years in the clan to get a respectable position teaching young clansmen.

According to Hines' original idea, he would spend his whole life in the castle in a dull manner, until his enthusiasm for the way of chivalry was completely wiped out.

But more than ten years ago, he met a student named Ren Brick, who was inferior to him in knight talent, but he was full of enthusiasm and motivation for the way of knights, and he has been working hard for it. to practice.

When Hines first met Ren, he was in a trance, as if he saw the shadow of himself in Ren. The man was infected by Ren's enthusiasm for the way of chivalry, and his heart that was about to become cold again It's hot.

So he made a decision that he regretted for more than ten years—he decided to let this boy who was only about eight years old bear his will and continue to move forward, instead of fulfilling his wish to break through the limitations of the Great Knight.

In the beginning, the boy did not live up to his expectations. Although the knight talent was only inferior, his cultivation speed was not inferior to the geniuses in the big class.

It's just that this situation didn't last long. After a few years, Ren was promoted to the Grand Knight, but his cultivation speed slowed down.

After that, the other young knights in the big class quickly overtook Ren, and some geniuses even broke through to the blue level.

Arriving here, in fact, Ren's inner beliefs have collapsed, and he has the idea of ​​giving up. After all, he is only a ten-year-old child, and he has to face such a cruel reality.

But at that time, Hines was completely in a daze. When he thought that Ryan would face the same failure as himself, he couldn't accept it, so he kept encouraging Ryan and told him not to give up easily.

As he expected, the young man persisted in despair for three years, and finally moved out of the castle with Nuria because of psychological problems.

Faced with such an ending, the crazy Hines finally came to his senses. Even what he couldn't do himself, he wanted to pin his hopes on a young man, and he wanted to impose his will on the young man and give him exert such heavy pressure.

He began to regret his original decision, what inheritance of will, in fact, he used Renn as a tool to prove himself, it was really ridiculous.

Later, whenever Hines was free, he went to Tulip Street to visit Ren, and begged for his forgiveness, but Nuria ruthlessly stopped him.

He still remembers the cold words that the woman said to him at that time:
"Praying for forgiveness is just an action of a hypocrite to comfort himself. Your appearance will only make Ren more painful. If you are really enlightened, please come back with stronger strength."

Since that day, Hines has never been to Tulip Street again, and Nuria's words finally woke him up. He once again picked up the long-abandoned way of chivalry, and he wanted to use himself to prove it to Rennes , Inferior talents are not without success.

In order to be able to devote all his energy to cultivation, Hines, regardless of his family's opposition, gave up his stable job and went into the deep mountains to seek training.

I don't know if it's because his determination is too strong. After regaining the way of knight, it only took him two years to break through to the blue level, breaking the restriction of knight talent on him.

After achieving this goal, Hines was ecstatic. He had just returned to the city of Sauron, and he couldn't wait to walk to Tulip Street, wanting to tell Ren the good news.

It's a pity that when he came to Tulip Street again, he only got the news that Ryan was traveling abroad.

When what he tried so hard to prove lost its meaning, Hines was completely at a loss. The guilt and pain in his heart did not recede, but became more intense.

Since then, he has been living in a state of confusion, decadent for several years, before gradually recovering.

Now, although Hines has broken through to the blue level, he has also lost his will to fight, and calmed down to work as a librarian in the castle library.

Today, he went back and forth between the library and home as usual. When he heard the guard say that there was a knight named Renn outside the door who wanted to enter the castle, he was shocked instantly. Without thinking about anything, he ran directly to the castle. Castle black iron gate.

From the moment he saw Chu Ming, the memories in Hines' mind surged up wildly, and those annoyed and painful emotions came to his heart again.

The man opened his mouth and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was really wrong."

Chu Ming looked at the man with a complicated expression, "Mr. Hines, long time no see."

"Congratulations on breaking through the limit."

After hearing Chu Ming's words, Hines looked a little timid. He no longer wanted to prove himself. Right or wrong is not important now. The important thing is that he really hurt Renn.

Seeing the man's appearance, Chu Ming sighed slightly.

In fact, it is hard to say who is right and who is wrong in this matter. Even without Hines, Ren would stick to the way of chivalry, and give up the way of chivalry one day after decades, becoming another Haines Ince.

Moreover, Hines has tortured himself crazily for many years because of this matter. The mature and stable him back then has disappeared, and he has become a timid coward who does things timidly.

Although Chu Ming did not forgive him, he also lost his sincerity.

He patted Hines, "Teacher, let's talk as we walk."

Chu Ming led Irina into the castle, Hines stood there for a while, and followed Chu Ming's footsteps.

Chu Ming walked slowly, waiting for the man to catch up. He said softly, "After I went to the Violet Principality, I became a mage there, and I also got the secret medicine to improve the knight's talent. My strength has broken through to Deep Blue."

"This should be regarded as living up to your expectations of me back then."

Hearing this, Hines froze in place, with a complicated expression of relief on his face.

He was delighted that Chu Ming was able to break through to Deep Blue, and he also felt disappointed that he had persisted for several years, but in the end it was a meaningless self-proof.

The man forced a smile and said, "Ren, congratulations, you have broken through your limit."

Chu Ming patted him on the shoulder solemnly, "Mr. Hines, let yourself go, you have done well enough."

Hines nodded in a daze, but after seeing Chu Ming live so well, some cracks in his heart seemed to be healing slowly.

Chu Ming smiled and asked: "I came to the castle this time for the inheritance of epic knights. Teacher, do you know how to get it?"

Hearing this, Hines suddenly raised his head, "Are you going to break through the epic?!"

There was an unconcealable shock on the man's face, his melancholy mood suddenly eased a lot, and his expression became relaxed.

Chu Ming nodded and said: "That's right, if I can have the help of the Epic Knight inheritance, I will be able to break through to Epic soon."

Hines finally showed a sincere smile on his face, "Ren, you have completely surpassed me."

"If you want to obtain the inheritance of the epic knight, please come with me."

The man walked into the corridor to lead the way. Compared with before, his heavy steps were much lighter. During the chat with Chu Ming, the fluctuations in tone and emotion became more and more ups and downs.

The three of Chu Ming kept walking into the castle. Along the way, they met many people from the clan passing by, but these people just passed by indifferently and ignored them.

Among the three of them, Hines was a well-known lunatic in the castle, and Chu Ming and Irina were unknown to each other, so they passed by like many people from their clansmen and came to the door of the spacious library on the second floor.

Chu Ming asked suspiciously: "Teacher, are you sure it's here?"

Hines opened the door of the library and explained: "The legacy of the Yunlei Knight's epic is placed in the secret room of the castle, and the secret room is in the library."

"Although I don't know what it takes to obtain the epic knight inheritance, I can take you to find Jerome who is currently waiting at the door of the secret room."

When Chu Ming heard the name Jerome, a middle-aged man with gray hair and a peaceful smile appeared in his mind.

He is Uncle Jerome that Nuria said, possessing the strength of an epic knight. He was born in the same era as Ren's father, and the two often performed missions together in the past.

Logically speaking, as an epic knight, Jerome is not over a hundred years old, so he should be considered young. The job of guarding the book and secret room is usually performed by the elders of the family. Epic knights prefer a quieter environment, and guarding the library secret room is a good retirement option for them.

I didn't expect Jerome to become the manager of the library secret room. Is this a detour that has been avoided decades in advance...

Chu Ming's thoughts were messy. While thinking, he followed Hines' footsteps to a corner of the library.

In the corner is a counter table placed in the book secret room. Beside the table, a man who looks a bit vicissitudes is crossing his thighs, reading the newspaper in his hand with great interest.

This newspaper is printed by the famous magic newspaper in southern Xinjiang. The words on the newspaper with magic power are neat and black, and the pictures are very colorful. It is hand-painted and then printed.

Due to the high cost of printing a magic newspaper, even magic newspapers rarely publish magic newspapers. The magic newspapers in Jerome's hands are the kind that cannot be bought with money.

After Chu Ming and the others walked towards the counter, Jerome said lazily without raising his head, "Please show your family's order prohibiting borrowing books, or you can obediently go to the nearby bookshelf to get books to read."

"Uncle Jerome, it's me."

"You young man, why are you still called uncle..."

Jerome put down the magic newspaper in his hand, and he slowly raised his head. He was just halfway through speaking, and when he saw Ming Ming's appearance, he froze.

The man laughed and stood up from his chair, "Ren, welcome back."

"and many more……"

The look on his face didn't last long before he became surprised.

"Your aura... have you advanced to the dark blue level?!"

He was very clear about Chu Ming's situation, but he didn't expect him to break through the limit, which made Jerome sigh.

Chu Ming nodded and said, "I'm going back to the family castle this time to obtain the inheritance of the epic knight, Uncle Jerome."

"This……"

After hearing Chu Ming's words, Jerome showed embarrassment.

The man shook his head apprehensively and said, "The secret book room behind me does contain the secret method of Yunlei, but I cannot give it to you."

Chu Ming was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Please ask Uncle Jerome to answer."

Jerome sighed, and said seriously: "According to the family's regulations, only knights who have made significant contributions, or ranked in the top ten in the knight assessment, can be granted the quota for practicing epic knight inheritance."

He paused, as if pointing, "It's still a bit difficult to make a major contribution. I suggest you prepare for the next knight assessment."

After listening, Chu Ming propped his chin and began to think.

In fact, he can understand this approach of the Brick family. If it is too easy to obtain the inheritance of the epic knights, the knights will not know how to cherish and lose their aggressiveness.

Although quite a few knights from within and outside the clan advance to Deep Blue every year, there is still a long way for these knights to break through to epic. The Brick family is not in a hurry to pass on the inheritance of epic knights to Knights, the purpose of setting up this rule is to encourage the clansmen to cultivate bravely, and not to be complacent when immersed in the dark blue level.

After a few seconds, Chu Ming asked, "When will the next knight assessment start?"

Jerome smiled and said, "Two months later, it's enough for you to prepare well."

Chu Ming shook his head slightly. He didn't think it was a good thing, which meant that he had to wait for two months to obtain the inheritance of the epic knight.

Is there any way to speed up the process...

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a surprised voice behind everyone.

"Your Excellency Ren, so you are really here."
