MTL - Weird Wizarding World-Chapter 384 Cataclysm
Chapter 384 Catacomb Tide
In the evening, the sun sets.
Colin Residence.
"I will leave to Mr. Wilbur in two days." Colin got up and sent Wilbur out politely.
"No problem, don't say half a month, even if you go out for half... two or three months, there will be no problems. I will help you arrange the garrison matters..."
Wilbur patted his chest and said confidently.
Colin nodded slightly, relieved a little, and watched Wilbur leave.
"Going for half a month?" Shelley on the side asked.
"Probably, maybe longer, maybe shorter." Colin replied.
"Need help?" Shelley asked again.
"No need." Colin shook his head, thought for a while and added, "No need for now."
As a second-level intermediate wizard and a first-level senior knight, this time he went to find O'Neill to investigate the Giant Mountain Breathing Technique. It should be easy to grasp, and there will be no surprises.
"Yeah." Shelley stroked the hair beside her ears, and stood up naturally.
Colin understood, and the two walked towards the garden.
The golden brilliance of the setting sun covers the garden in front of you with a layer of hazy tulle. The colorful flowers, lush shrubs and fruit trees seem to be walking in a dream.
Walking around the garden, Colin asked, "Still not having dinner today?"
"Yes." Shelley nodded.
It has been almost a week, and Shelley didn't stay for dinner, and she seemed very busy.
Colin hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Recently...has the Chasai Chamber of Commerce encountered any trouble?"
Shelley turned his head, and there seemed to be no expression on his delicate face, but Colin could already read the subtle differences from it.
—Shelley is amazed.
For more than a year, the two have maintained a tacit understanding and never talked about the Chasai Chamber of Commerce. In other words, neither of them tried to touch the other's own affairs.
For Shelley, it is the Chasai Chamber of Commerce, the Truth Society...For Colin, it is the hidden strength, why he went out this time, and so on.
"I am talking too much."
Shelley shook his head, "The chamber of commerce has been normal recently, if there is anything that needs your help, I will tell you."
"Hmm." Colin smiled and skipped the topic.
The next day.
It was just dawn.
Into City, Wood Family.
Cold morning light shone through the window, and O'Neill was putting on heavy full body armor for himself.
"O'Neill, go to the council hall, the elders are looking for you!"
A fellow clan suddenly bluffed and knocked on his door and said loudly.
O'Neill frowned slightly, put the silver helmet on his head, and at the same time subconsciously held his right hand to the side—but he missed it.
"Come on, O'Neill!"
Under the helmet, O'Neill's eyes flashed with complicated emotions, and he withdrew his arm in a sense of loss, and then strode out the door.
"Nellie, why are the elders looking for me?"
"I don't know the details, but it seems that a wizard is coming." The young fellow Nellie said.
Wizard... O'Neill subconsciously paused, and a guess arose in his heart.
"What wizard is it, Lord Alsop in the city?"
He trots after Nellie.
"I don't know, but it seems that it is not a wizard in the city, but from outside the city." Nellie said, "The elders must be looking for you now because of that wizard. Do you remember anything?"
"...I don't know." O'Neill had some expectation in his heart, but more of it was shame and resistance. He was a little afraid to face Colin again—especially when he had just lost the spear.
But he took a deep breath, his gaze under the visor became firm again, and he continued to walk forward.
As a true knight, he never lacks responsibility and courage.
The council hall is located in the center of the family, and it is only used when discussing important family affairs or receiving distinguished guests on weekdays.
As the big family of Into City, the Wood family occupies a large area. About five minutes later, O'Neill arrived at the council hall.
The door of the council hall was open. Before O'Neill entered, he saw the back of the familiar wizard from the door.
The elders were sitting in front of him, chatting respectfully with him.
Not daring to delay, O'Neill took a deep breath, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Your Excellency, O'Neill is here." An elder with a long white beard said with a smile, and then added: "His giant mountain breathing method is indeed well practiced, but in terms of strength, he is still our family's Alco To be better than that.”
"The two of them just had a fight some time ago, and it turned out that Alcott also won a big victory."
"Yes." Colin raised his brows slightly, and replied noncommittally.
"O'Neill, hurry up and say hello to your lord." The elder greeted again.
"Good morning, Your Excellency Colin." O'Neill saluted respectfully.
"There is no need to be too polite." Colin smiled slightly.
The particularly tall knight in front of him gave him a good impression at first.
"Where's your spear?" But soon, as if he had noticed something, Colin asked curiously.
O'Neill lowered his head, shame and embarrassment mixed on his face.
Just as he was about to speak.
Tuk Tuk Tuk.
A new knock on the door came.
Colin turned his head to look, and a tall knight who was only a few centimeters shorter than O'Neill walked in.
Different from the ordinary silver full body armor on O'Neill, the new tall knight is wearing an exquisite yet practical black full body armor, both in material and workmanship, it looks obviously better than that on O'Neill silver armor.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the familiar sharp black spear on Alcott's back.
"Alcott is here too, hurry up and say hello to the adults in front of you." The elder with the white beard continued, his tone was much softer than when he was dealing with O'Neill.
"Okay, Elder Commons." Alcott took off his helmet, revealing a handsome face and a pair of dark green eyes.
"My lord wizard." Alcott saluted Colin.
Colin nodded slightly, glanced at Alcott, O'Neill, and the elders in front of him, and suddenly realized—
In front of everyone in the Wood family, although their hair color is slightly different, their pupil color is the same dark green, but O'Neill is an abnormal dark red.
Colin immediately understood why Elder Commons in front of him had such a previous attitude.
But he didn't care, and didn't say much, even if the spear landed on Alcott.
Colin continued to drink tea, only waiting for the remaining great knights of the Wood family to arrive, and then prepared to ask questions about the giant mountain breathing method.
"My lord, there is one more thing I don't know whether I should tell you." But noticing his gaze, Commons suddenly explained, "The spear you gave as a gift was used in a competition a few days ago. O'Neill lost to Alcott."
O'Neill, with his head down, raised his head slightly, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he remained silent in the end.
"Hmm." Colin just took a sip of his tea and responded softly through his nasal cavity.
Commance breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Colin was not in a good mood, he chose to remain silent at the right time.
Not long after, all the great knights of the Wood family arrived.
Colin put down the black tea and began to ask: "I want to know, is there another stage after the great knight's breath method?"
After his words fell, everyone present showed surprise.
Colin scanned the crowd, carefully observing their changes.
Yes, the giant mountain breathing method may have a stage after the great knight—this is the strangeness he noticed in this year's research!
Different from the sense of completeness in the great knight stage of other knight breathing methods, the great knight stage of the giant mountain breathing method always gives people a feeling of incompleteness, and it can even be said that it is somewhat incomplete.
For example, it also has three characteristics and can be cultivated to the stage of the great knight's white light breathing method.
This breathing method has always been laying the foundation before the great knight, and the external performance is only the enhancement of eyesight.
When it comes to the great knight stage, after the breakthrough, the cultivator's vision will undergo a fundamental change, and he will obtain 'infrared vision'.
But the most special aspect of the Giant Mountain Breathing Method—the strengthening and improvement of the body, it is gradually reflected from the beginning of the junior knight.
When it came time to break through to the great knight, there was no qualitative change like the white light breathing method, and at the same time, there was no obvious upper limit to the strengthening of the body.
For practitioners of the Giant Mountain Breathing Method, the peculiarities that appear in the intermediate knight stage are not qualitatively different from the great knight stage.
However, limited by the insufficient number of samples, the difference in this aspect is not the main reason for Colin's conclusion.
He speculated that the main reason why the giant mountain breathing method may have the next stage, in fact, it is more because of the performance of the giant mountain breathing method in the stage of the great knight.
At this stage, as the strength of the giant mountain breathing method practice knights continues to grow, they will gradually begin to overwhelm their bodies while gaining greater strength and growing larger.
According to Colin's speculation, when these knights grow to a little over three meters in size, their strength will reach its peak, and then quickly turn from prosperity to decline, towards decline and destruction.
This may be a design flaw, but Colin prefers to use it as a foreshadowing, or a precondition for achieving some kind of breakthrough.
"Your Excellency Colin... the manuscript that I gave you at the beginning is indeed the complete giant mountain breathing method. We have not heard that there is a new stage after the great knight."
Commance spoke first, and he looked at Colin with extremely confused eyes: "Besides, as far as I know, the great knight is the end point on the road of knighthood. There has never been a higher realm, has there?"
If it weren't for the fact that this sentence came from a distinguished wizard, Commons would definitely not be able to restrain himself from laughing.
Is there a new stage after the Grand Knight?
What a joke, from ancient times to the present, on the road of knights, there are only four realms: junior, intermediate, advanced knights, and great knights!
Colin saw that the faces of the people present seemed to be fake-they really didn't know about it.
After pondering for a moment, he said slowly: "Take me to see the original of Jushan breathing method."
"Also, tell me about this book of breathing. I need to know everything about it."
"Okay, my lord." Commons nodded quickly without any hesitation.
Facing such an existence that could destroy his own family with a single flip of his hand, he would dig out even treasures treasured in the cemetery of his ancestors and offer them with both hands, let alone just look at the original version of the Knight's Breathing Method.
"My lord, do these great knights still need them to follow?" Commons stood up and asked suddenly.
"If you have something to do, then you don't need to follow, if you don't, then follow me...the same goes for the elders."
Colin said briefly, raised his chin, and signaled Commons to lead the way.
After walking for about ten minutes, a group of people walked from an inconspicuous house into a very hidden secret room.
At this time, there were only three elders around Colin. Besides Commons with the white beard, there was also a middle-aged man and an old man who was as old as Commons.
As for the knights, there are only three left now, O'Neill, Alcott, and a middle-aged man who is significantly smaller than them.
According to the name, it should be the knight of the uncles of O'Neill and Alcott.
There are no tables and chairs in the secret room, only a row of bookshelves and some valuables carefully stored in boxes of different materials.
Colin held the already yellowed Giant Mountain Breathing Method and began to read.
Commance did not lie to him. There is no difference in content between the original version of Giant Mountain Breathing Method and the rubbing copy given to him.
There is no difference in a word, even the layout and page numbers are the same.
However, unlike the seemingly ordinary original, the origin of the giant mountain breathing method is much more fantastic.
"According to the family's historical records, more than three hundred years ago, our Wood family was just an ordinary small family. What we practiced was not the giant mountain breathing method, but an ordinary knight's breathing method called Xunfeng. The highest Able to reach senior knights.
But in the cave demon tide more than 300 years ago, everything changed. "
"Our ancestor, Alec Wood, when beheading a dragonfly-like monster with black wings turned into strange arthropods, suddenly dropped this giant mountain breathing method from its abdominal wound."
Commance will tell the past, but this story even he finds it a bit strange, and he finally adds:
"About the origin of the giant mountain breathing method, Alec's ancestors recorded it in this way. As for the real situation-more than three hundred years have passed, we have no way of knowing..."
Colin looked at the original Giant Mountain Breathing Method in his hand, which was made of ordinary materials and without any special traces, and couldn't help frowning.
Paper made of such a material, not to mention the stomach acid of monsters, I am afraid that it can be easily soaked with just water.
Could it be that I was thinking too much?
I wish you all a happy new year!
