The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 22 Skills Division Conquering Blade
Early morning, rest area.

Huo Jixing stood on Qingshi Street, looking up at the familiar three-story building in front of him, and stepped forward.

dong dong!dong dong!
A dull knock on the door broke the tranquility of the morning light.

After waiting for a moment, the door opens.

DeWitt opened the door and looked at the person in front of him with a somewhat surprised expression.

"Why, don't you know?"

Huo Jixing laughed softly, patted DeWitt on the shoulder and said hello.

"No no!"

DeWitt smiled and shook his head, turned sideways and let Huo Jixing in: "It's just a little unexpected."

"What's the accident? Before the transfer order came down, we were still teammates." Huo Jixing thought of the fate that had been changed by the transfer order, and chatted with DeWitt as he walked.

Although he has now become a captain of ten, there is no distinction between upper and lower classes at all, and he still regards DeWitt as a friend.

It's just that Huo Jixing doesn't care, but it doesn't mean that others don't care.

DeWitt looked at Huo Jixing in front of him. The friendliness in his eyes was still there, but there was more awe and respect.

Along the narrow corridor, Huo Jixing walked to the hall and looked at the somewhat empty environment with a sad look on his face. He recalled the scenes of people and figures when he first came here.

"Are Moore and Captain Eric here?"

DeWitt was half a step behind and replied: "Moore is out, Sir Eric is on the third floor."

Before he finished speaking, the young Noxian scout understood Huo Jixing's thoughts: "Are you looking for Sir Eric? He said earlier that if you come over, you can go directly upstairs."

"Thank you!" Huo Jixing said his thanks without any secret, then turned and went upstairs.

The dark gray wooden steps stretch up and make a slight sound with each step.

After passing the second floor, there is an open wooden door at the end of the stairs, and you can see Eric's tall figure sitting upright.

"Looks like he's recovering well!"

After seeing Huo Jixing's face, Eric was the first to speak, with a look of surprise on his face.

It is true that Huo Jixing's appearance after squandering Nanli's fire was too miserable. Compared with the appearance he saw before him, it was completely different.

"Thanks to the camp, the doctor's skills and the medicines provided are extremely effective." Huo Jixing sat across from him at Eric's signal.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me." Eric looked at Huo Jixing in front of him, put away the envy in his eyes, and said with a smile.

He is a straightforward person and doesn't like to go around.

"Then let me get straight to the point. I was recommended by Legion Advisor Wilson." Huo Jixing looked at Eric's wild face and recounted the content of his previous conversation with Wilson quite simply.

Huo Jixing is still unfamiliar with this world. He only knew two or three people before.

And Eric, who had performed missions together and experienced life and death, was within the scope of trust in his heart.

"Sure enough, it's that Wilson guy. No wonder he said hello the day before yesterday." Eric chuckled softly, his expression seemed casual, but he remembered Wilson's kindness in his heart.

"Extraordinary, skill!" Eric repeated his words, his expression gradually becoming serious.

Although for them, some common sense about transcendence and skills is not a secret matter.

With the current status of Huo Jixing's extraordinary person, it won't be long before they will be exposed to this knowledge, even more detailed than what they know.

Legion consultant Wilson's proposal was actually to get Eric a favor from Huo Jixing. After all, it was at the time of war, and no one could guarantee the future.

And the empire's attitude towards extraordinary people may make Eric himself, or related people, take some secret care of him.

"After the Rune War, after countless scholars' research, they called runes and magic extraordinary power." Eric thought for a while and spoke softly.

"Of course, those who master runes and magic are called extraordinary."

Thousands of years ago, with the rediscovery of the world runes and the fall of Hylia's arcane vault on Blessed Island.

Dangerous runic powers and magical artifacts began to flow into the hands of those with evil intentions.

A few years later, the mighty Rune War began and intensified, dragging most of the known regions and forces in the world into destruction.

After more than ten years of apocalyptic war, people began to fear the terrifying power of runes and magic.

Even the Noxus Empire, which advocates strength and believes in power, still respects runes and magic.Runes and magic are special.

Not everyone can contact and master it, only the chosen ones can become extraordinary.

In order to fight against runes and magic, newly born forces such as the Noxus Empire and the Demacia Empire began to pursue other paths.

Skills are born.

And become one of the paths against runes and magic!

This is not to say that skills can fight against runes and magic, but it gives ordinary people a glimmer of hope. At least for the growing extraordinary beings, powerful skills can bring fatal danger.

"Over hundreds of years, from the very beginning to now, the path of skill has matured and divided into different levels of strength." Eric looked dazed, as if he was trapped in the long history of the past.

But in his words, he made no secret of his admiration for skills.

"Of course, this is only a division of skills and has nothing to do with runes and magic!" Eric said solemnly. The more he understood the runes and magic, the more he was filled with awe.

Assassin division:

Apprentice Assassin, Junior Assassin, Intermediate Assassin, Advanced Assassin, Shadow of Slaughter, Master of Slaughter.

Fighter division:

Apprentice Warrior, Junior Warrior, Intermediate Warrior, Advanced Warrior, Conquering Blade, Conquering Grandmaster.

Shooter division:

Apprentice shooter, junior shooter, intermediate shooter, advanced shooter, falcon eye, shooting master.

Shield Guard Division:

Apprentice Shield Guard, Junior Shield Guard, Intermediate Shield Guard, Advanced Shield, Fearless Shield, Shield Master.

As a listener, Huo Jixing quickly found his own skill position - an intermediate warrior, followed by senior warriors, Conquering Blades and Conquering Grandmasters.

"Is there any hope for ordinary people to resist the extraordinary?"

Eric's statement was simple and clear, and did not mean to look down on runes and magic.

On the contrary, it is very respectful.

Even faintly lowering the status of skills.

After listening, Huo Jixing's thoughts surged, his eyes fell on Eric's tall body that looked like a ferocious tiger, and he began to think secretly.

Because he has seen Eric's true strength!
Perhaps seeing Huo Jixing's curiosity, Eric smiled suddenly and said, "My skills are now at the Conquering Blade stage, but..."

After a pause, Eric remembered the battle in Freljord not long ago, his expression was gloomy, and he shook his head slightly: "But it can only resist ordinary extraordinary beings."

"Only able to resist?" Huo Jixing frowned slightly and grasped the key point.

Then in Eric's next words, he had some subtle understanding of the extraordinary.

For example, the extraordinary power in the Freljord area - the animal spirit walkers, they can communicate with animals through the spiritual realm and obtain some of the abilities given by animals.

The beast spirit apprentices encountered before can control the frost-fang giant wolf and even cast extraordinary spells such as [Wild Secret Technique].

Finally, Eric looked at Huo Jixing and spoke quietly.

"Wilson is right. For extraordinary people, the improvement of skills can also make better use of their own power, or runes and magic."

The existence of skills is to pursue and explore the ultimate power of the body.

Whether they are ordinary people or extraordinary people, they can improve their skills through training.

Due to their own special characteristics, extraordinary people learn much faster than most ordinary people, and their advantages are even more obvious.

Eric stood up and lowered his eyes to the separated empty backyard. He seemed to be a little interested and said softly: "Why not practice on paper instead of practicing?"

"Okay!" Huo Jixing's eyes lit up and he agreed immediately.

Not to mention the realm of the Grandmaster, the Conquering Blade is already the penultimate level of skill, far exceeding that of the intermediate warrior.

Huo Jixing would naturally benefit a lot from having such a strong person as a sparring partner.
