"Uncle Marshall, I want to learn these 2 secret techniques. I have Black Wind. These 2 secret techniques are very useful." Abel knew the importance of a mount. Now that he had a top-level mount, all he needed was a matching secret technique.
The Knight Marshall did not avoid Abel. He pressed a button on a Knight's biography on the bookcase. That knight's biography fell inwards. Afterward, there was a grinding sound, and the bookcase split in half, revealing a secret room.
"Come in. You should know this place. This is the collection of Harry's castle." The Knight Marshall's voice was filled with pride. Everything here was slowly collected by him over the past few decades. Normally, he would not even let anyone know about this secret room, let alone show it to others. For the Knight who loved to show off, this was a very painful thing. Today, he finally found someone to share it with.
This secret room was very big. There were many weapons hanging on the walls. Some were orc, some were human, and there was even a typical elf-style bow. The Knight Marshall saw Abel looking at the weapons on the wall, so he couldn't help but say, "these are the weapons of those who have been defeated for so many years."
It was a habit of nobles to keep the weapons of their opponents after defeating them, no matter if they killed them or not. Many noble Knights had this habit. These kinds of weapons were the favorite collection of every noble Knight.
In the middle of the secret room was a big long table. There were some big books on the table. From the cover of these books, you could see that there were geography, agriculture, and some special non-combat secret techniques. For example, Abel saw a book that taught people how to make skin lotion.
Abel had heard of skin lotion before. It was a kind of skin care potion that women often used, but Abel rolled his eyes when he saw the Knight's collection. The Knight saw Abel's disdain for the skin lotion, so he couldn't help but explain, "this is not an ordinary skin lotion formula. This is the formula of the noble elves. Look at how good their skin is. I spent a lot of gold coins to get it back in the day."
Abel really wanted to tell the Knight Knight that the elves were born beautiful. Even if they didn't use this formula, they would still be beautiful. But as for the Knight's collection, Abel felt helpless.
Finally, he saw two books at the corner of the table. These were probably the two Family Harry's secret techniques. But the position was too far away. Judging from the placement, the Knight Marshall's skin lotion formula was definitely more important than these two secret techniques.
Abel picked up the two secret techniques and was about to leave the secret room. Suddenly, a square sign attracted Abel's attention. There were some patterns engraved on the sign. Abel was very sure that it was a rune, but he didn't know exactly which rune it was.
Abel stepped forward and picked up the square sign. He looked up at the Knight Marshall and asked, "Uncle Marshall, where did you get this?"
The Knight Marshall recalled, "This was given to me by a wizard friend. He said that if you crush it when you are in danger, you can repel the enemy."
"You have a wizard friend?" Abel was pleasantly surprised. He had always heard about wizards, but he had never heard a detailed description of them.
"Yes, it was when I was still in Bagang City. During a mission, I saved a wizard. At that time, his mana was exhausted, and he was facing a few prairie wolves." Perhaps the Knight of Marshall was thinking about the sorry state of the wizard at that time, so a smile emerged on his face. He then continued, "Later on, this wizard and I became friends. At that time, he was still a novice wizard. Since I was going to the battlefield, he paid a hefty price in exchange for this rune sign. It was to save my life."
"What's the difference between a wizard and a Knight?" Abel continued to ask.
"The difference? As long as a wizard has mana, there is no doubt that they are powerful. But the most enviable thing about them is their lifespan. " The Knight Marshall's eyes flashed with a hint of envy. He continued, "The lifespan of a beginner official wizard can reach 300 years. Every time you level up, your lifespan will increase by a lot. But for us Knights, even if we become a great Knight, we can only increase our lifespan by 50 years."
"300 years!" Abel's eyes were burning with a strong yearning. He hurriedly asked, "How can I become a wizard?"
"It's not easy to become a wizard. First of all, you need a middleman. Wizards basically don't have much contact with the people of this world. They are high and mighty, and they rarely care about family, country, or race matters. Ordinary people can't get close to them, let alone become a wizard. Next, you need to have talent. Wizards value talent the most. Everyone who wants to become a wizard has to pass a test. Only those who pass the test can become a wizard."
The Knight Marshall saw the yearning in Abel's eyes. He couldn't help but smile, "When I learned that the lifespan of an official wizard was 300 years, I also asked a wizard friend to help me become a wizard. In the end, I didn't pass the test."
The Knight Marshall's face was a little sad, but soon he smiled and said, "If you want to take the test, you will have to wait until you are 15 years old. At that time, I will go with you to ask my friend for help. If you can pass the test, then your achievements will surpass all other Knights."
This was the most exciting thing Abel had heard in the past few days. If he became a wizard, on one hand, he could live longer, and on the other hand, he could use the Book of Town Portal in Hradik's cube. If he wanted to use the Book of Town Portal, he would have to become a wizard first to have mana.
"Why do I have to wait until I am 15 years old to take the test?" Abel asked impatiently.
"I heard that it's because people under 15 years old can't understand the mystery of magic, and their bodies haven't grown to the point where they can absorb mana." The Knight Marshall knew what Abel was thinking, so he continued to say, "You just have to wait until you are 15 years old, and I will take you there. It will take some time on the road, but after we arrive at Bakon City, you can stay for a while and learn some secret techniques from the family. By then, you will be almost 15 years old."
Abel listened to the Knight Marshall's words. He knew that the Knight cared about him, and he even took this little bit of time into consideration. He was about to put down the rune sign in his hand.
"You can keep this rune sign. I see that you are very interested in it. I don't need it anymore. It's been here all these years, and it's a waste." The Knight Marshall waved his hand and motioned Abel to put away the rune sign.
"Thank you, Uncle Marshall." Abel happily put away the rune sign. It would be very helpful for him to study runes.
"Don't mention it!" The Knight Marshall patted Abel's head intimately, and the two left the secret room.
When Abel returned to his room, he realized that the Knight Marshall's birthday was in 10 days. He had already prepared a birthday present for the Knight Marshall, but it would be unreasonable if he didn't do something for the Knight's birthday. So, he had to start preparing a present for the Knight.
Abel practiced the Knight's breathing technique in his bedroom for a while. He also analyzed today's battle. The orcs needed to move quickly in the human world, so they had no armor, let alone a shield. This was the perfect opportunity for the composite bow, which was named Harry's Bow by the Knight Marshall.
In this world, unless you could find a heaven-defying material, it was impossible to make a 400 pound bow. The reason was that the long material of the bow could not withstand the pull force of 400 pounds. The composite bow, on the other hand, only used a short bow arm material. The rest of the bow was made of steel. The two worlds had different production techniques, and that was how the Harry's Bow became a killing machine.
As long as the opponent had no armor or shield, unless they were extremely powerful, they would be killed by the Harry's Bow. However, the starting strength of the Harry's Bow was too high. Abel could barely use it as a level 5 novice Knight.
