Chapter 7 Target Charon

...

Although progress might slowly decline, as long as improvement is visible, it's hard to give up on training. This sort of motivation is an unimaginable help for ordinary people.

"Just need to grind it out, Extraordinary Power! This world is amazing!!"

Lin Suo excitedly clenched his fists.

The Magic Cube could break the limit of fully developed abilities, from white, green, blue, purple, gold, to red.

Five chances.

Even the most ineffective Breathing Skill, after breaking its limits five times, should become a top-tier Breathing Skill, ensuring reaching the status of a Peak Knight is no issue.

Joy from good news always brings about extra exhilaration.

In the dead of the night, taking advantage of the perfect moonlight, which is beneficial for practicing the Moon Disk Breathing Technique.

Lin Suo munched on Super Supple Meat to replenish nutrients while training fervently; in just one night, he underwent earth-shaking changes.

The next day.

An overly excited Lin Suo finally tasted the bitter fruits.

Worn out.

Two large bags of Super Supple Meat, synthesized from smaller jerky pieces, he consumed entirely, drinking a whole tank of water too, and with slight dark circles under his eyes, he scanned himself.

[Lin Suo]

[Age: 19 (72)]

[Talent: Synthesize Everything]

[Rank: Knight Attendant (12/100)]

[Extraordinary: Moon Disk Breathing Technique (51/100)]

[Skill: None]

[Skill: Padolon Universal Language +3 (5/100)]

[Status: Healthy]

Leveling up is slow, but skill level increases rapidly, taking just two to three days to achieve the first limit-breaking enhancement.

Higher levels in Breathing Skill also promote the ascent speed of a Knight Attendant; the training effect becomes better.

The two complement each other.

Perfectly suitable for him.

Just exiting the tent, Earl Seth came over leading a team of soldiers, reeking of alcohol - he seemed to have not slept all night as well, unclear what he had been doing.

Seeing Lin Suo, he paused abruptly.

"Sir Rhein, you haven't been practicing the Moon Disk Breathing Technique, have you? Your body already encompasses the moonlight's breath..."

There was nothing to hide about this.

After all, just yesterday he was weak, but today he became vigorously energized, especially in spirit, the change was unique.

"Yes, Lord Earl, the recent dangers made me realize that only power in one's own hands is true power, so I attempted to learn it."

"The low-level Breathing Skill really is quite simple."

Earl Seth's mouth twitched slightly, however simple, it couldn't possibly advance overnight!

His reserve knights, starting from scratch, needed at least a year of preparation and then three more months of regular training to advance.

Advancing to a Lower Knight and initially forming combat capabilities generally takes around three years to develop a group of elite soldiers.

The resources consumed along the way are countless.

Who could advance overnight～

Earl Seth quickly regained his composure and complimented.

"Sir Rhein, with your exceptional talents, I believe it won't be long before you also achieve the status of a Peak Knight."

"This is Madich, he leads a twelve-person team of Lower Knights to escort you back to Charon, and he will also arrange things first at the Dan Dong Embassy."

"What do you think?"

Lin Suo was puzzled, yesterday still a half-baked novice, today he's already a master-level individual in Padolon Universal Language.

Finally understood.

But only half-knowing the real situation.

Despite being a language master now, can he remember what he heard in an English composition yesterday just by saying yes repeatedly?

Even if he became a master of English overnight, he would not remember.

Nevertheless...

Dan Dong Embassy...

Thanks to the twelve books including travel diaries and geographical books, he gained a basic understanding of Dan Dong.

Seemed to grasp something.

Promptly, without a change in expression, he repeated his statements from yesterday.

"Rhein thanks Earl Seth for his assistance; once I return to Dan Dong and contact my family, there will be a day when I return!"

"Damn those forest people!"

Earl Seth laughed and echoed likewise.

"Damn those forest people!"

"Hahahaha."

The two of them, each with their own schemes, miraculously reached an agreement.

To show the enthusiasm of the Charon people, Earl Seth generously gifted him a set of knight armor and a knight longsword.

Four boxes of food and one box of medicinal materials for treating minor ailments like cold.

And various other daily necessities.

These were essential for the journey back to Charon, which could take three to four days if not rushed.

Including twelve accompanying knights, all having large appetites.

Lin Suo was somewhat hesitant about the accompaniment.

The brilliant gold light of using the Power of Synthesis was quite conspicuous; inevitably, he would need to study it on the way to Charon.

It's inconvenient to have people following close.

But without companions, Earl Seth was not at ease.

The road could indeed be found; there was just this one main road, it would be strange to get lost.

Eventually, after some rational explanations from Lin Suo.

The number of accompanying knights was reduced from twelve to one.

An intermediate knight, Madich.

This guy was also destined to run errands, but fortunately, he was lucky, as he was previously a member of the Vanguard that Lin Suo was part of, and Gray's Vanguard had been annihilated by the forest people.

He had gone to deliver a message and fortuitously survived.

Now following Lin Suo back, he helped arrange Lin Suo's entire itinerary to Charon.

This man had a bitter expression, still unaware of the Vanguard's annihilation.

Lin Suo hadn't told them.

Because it was really hard to explain why the whole knight squad was annihilated, yet he, a common man, was still alive.

Not speaking yesterday was a helpless choice.

Language was a big issue.

It's unclear.

He feared exposing his slip, endangering himself; not speaking today was already too late, just like how he couldn't explain why he learned the Padolon Universal Language overnight.

The situation was different.

If he was proficient in this language yesterday, he would definitely have told the truth.

Time and fate,

Hard to argue about.

Lin Suo boarded the Double Horse War Car, and Madich rode his mount, advancing towards Charon under Earl Seth's watchful eye.

At the current stage.

Lin Suo set himself a few tasks.

One, to find a way to become a wizard.

Two, to continue studying the Power of Synthesis.

Three, to increase his skill level and improve the rank of his knight's power.

With new knowledge in mind, the Dan Dong Empire indeed seemed like a suitable place for him.

The people of Dan Dong looked similar to him, all having yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes.

Also a place to find ways to become a wizard.

A must-go.

Tasks two and three could be done anytime, anywhere.

Therefore, if he could rush and reach Charon as soon as possible, then use the connections of the Dan Dong Embassy to head to the Empire, that would be the best choice for now.

On another note.

The Double Horse Biological War Car looked quite deformed.

Lin Suo planned to sell it upon reaching Charon; such a rare vehicle would surely gather a considerable amount of initial capital to lay the foundation for future endeavors.

On the road.

Lin Suo casually chatted with Madich now and then.

It was mostly him asking, and Madich answering.

About some customs of Charon, the prices, nobles, etc...

Lin Suo was very curious about many things.
