"————"

The system notification sound that emanated from the depths of Fang Li's mind suddenly jolted his spirit, causing his eyes to light up.

Immediately, Fang Li discreetly checked the effects of the newly acquired title in his mind.

...

Royal Guard

STR +30

VIT (Endurance) +30

AGI (Agility) +30

INT (Intelligence) +30

Additional Effect: Knight's Sword - When using sword-type weapons, all attributes receive an additional boost of 10 points.

(During the period of wearing this title, joining factions with evil tendencies is prohibited. Otherwise, the title will be invalidated and cannot be restored.)

...

This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.

Fang Li hadn't expected that joining the Royal Guard would grant him a new title.

(Come to think of it, I also received a title when I became a Butei.)

Since joining the Butei had earned him a title, it was only natural that becoming a Royal Guard, a member of the prestigious Knight Order, would also grant him a title.

And compared to the title of Butei, the title of Royal Guard was undoubtedly more remarkable.

The title of "Butei (S-Rank)" increased Fang Li's STR, VIT (Endurance), and AGI (Agility) by 20 points each, with an added accuracy bonus when using firearms.

The title of "Royal Guard," on the other hand, increased Fang Li's STR, VIT (Endurance), AGI (Agility), and even INT (Intelligence) by 30 points each, along with the Knight's Sword effect, which provided an additional 10-point boost to all attributes when using sword-type weapons.

In terms of attribute bonuses, the latter clearly surpassed the former.

As for the additional effect, although both titles had requirements regarding the weapon used, the latter was obviously superior to the former.

Not to mention, Fang Li now more frequently wielded sword-type weapons than firearms, especially considering that his primary weapon, Bo Xie, was of the sword type.

All things considered, the title of Royal Guard was truly a fortuitous acquisition.

Initially, Fang Li had chosen to join the Royal Guard simply because being a Royal Guard would make many things more convenient without the obligation to fulfill duties.

However, now Fang Li had to admit that if he had known this would be the result, even if it required fulfilling obligations, this title would still be worth pursuing.

So, Fang Li removed the title of "Butei (S-Rank)" and replaced it with the title of "Royal Guard."

...

Character: Fang Li

Race: Human

Class: Genestellar

Title: Royal Guard

Rank: Fourth Rank

STR: 72 (+50)

VIT (Endurance): 64 (+50)

AGI (Agility): 124 (+50)

INT (Intelligence): 140 (+50)

...

STR increased by 10 points.

VIT (Endurance) increased by 10 points.

AGI (Agility) increased by 10 points.

INT (Intelligence) increased by a whopping 30 points.

Compared to when wearing the title of "Butei (S-Rank)," Fang Li's combined attributes had increased by a total of 60 points.

If he were to use a sword-type weapon again and activate the additional effect of the title, Fang Li's combined attributes would increase by a full 100 points.

Of course, while wearing this title, Fang Li absolutely couldn't join any factions with evil tendencies.

Otherwise, he would just be waiting for the title to become invalid.

As Fang Li silently pondered the changes brought about by the new title, Marcos walked over to him carrying a set of uniform and a Knight sword.

"Royal Guard, Fang Li," Marcos solemnly spoke.

"From today onwards, you are a member of the Royal Guard of the Lugnica Kingdom. I hope you uphold the honor of the Knights, defend justice, and eradicate evil."

With Marcos's words, Reinhard, Julius, and Ferris all stood upright beside him, clenched their right fists, placed them over their left chests, bowed their heads, and respectfully offered the Knight's salute.

Fang Li raised his head, looked at the uniform and Knight sword in front of him, and reached out to accept them.

These were no ordinary uniform and Knight sword.

...

Knight Sword

Category: Weapon

Rank: Fifth Rank

Effect: Enhanced with magical power, both sharpness and endurance are increased, capable of cutting through iron and stone.

...

Knight Uniform

Category: Upper garment

Rank: Fifth Rank

Effect: Enhanced with magical power, provides a certain level of protection, capable of mitigating damage and resisting some magical effects.

...

Not to mention the Knight's sword, the Knight's uniform included not only an upper garment but also a lower garment, with the same effects as the upper garment.

In other words, Fang Li received three pieces of equipment: a weapon, an upper garment, and a lower garment.

However, these three pieces of equipment were only fifth rank and naturally couldn't compare to Fang Li's own equipment.

"Anyway, it's better than nothing."

So, Fang Li officially joined the Royal Guard and became a Royal Knight.

...

*Click...*

As the door opened, Fang Li walked out of the Royal Guard's changing room.

"Oooh..."

Outside the door, Reinhard, Julius, and Ferris were still waiting for him, and seeing Fang Li coming out of the changing room, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

It was not for anything else, and it was just because the Fang Li who had come out of the changing room had completely transformed.

The strange modern casual clothes that were extremely unusual for this world no longer existed on his body. In their place was the distinctive uniform of the Royal Guard.

The upper garment came with a long cloak, extending down to the ankles, like a combination of a cloak and a robe, a majestic pure white upper garment.

The lower half was a plainly visible pair of pure white trousers.

Inside the upper garment was a black high-quality shirt.

Coupled with the Knight's sword hanging from his waist, Fang Li had completely transformed from an inconspicuous passerby into a righteous Knight. Even if he claimed to be a nobleman from somewhere, people would believe it.

"Seeing you dressed like this, I'm certain," Reinhard said with a smile. "Inviting you to join the Royal Guard was definitely the right decision."

"Yeah," Ferris quickly nodded in agreement. "It's so fitting, Fang Li Kyun."

"Seeing you like this makes you truly look like a Knight," Julius suddenly smiled and said, "So stop saying you're not a Knight, Knight Fang Li."

The evaluation from the three Royal Guards only earned a shrug from Fang Li.

After all, the appearance was there, but their practicality couldn't match Fang Li's original equipment.

If it wasn't required, Fang Li wouldn't want to wear this outfit.

So, Fang Li spoke to the group without any emotional fluctuations.

"Alright, let's head out."
