Early in the morning, the sun shone on the surrounding land.
In the familiar training ground, Adil stood alone, holding a training sword in his hand.
Recently, due to all sorts of things happening everywhere, the apprentice Knights who had been training in the area had all been sent out. Those who remained were either on other missions or were seriously injured. As such, apart from Adil, not a single person could be seen in the large training ground.
There had originally been some servants around to serve him, but Adil did not need them, so he had sent them away long ago.
Standing on the training ground, Adil had just finished training. His body was covered in sweat, drenching his clothes.
Silent, he wiped his sweat with a linen cloth, feeling the changes in his body. He could not help but frown.
"As expected, after activating the Seed of Life, the effects of the Knights Breathing Technique are close to being ineffective."
After using the A.I. Chip to check the effects of training, Adil sighed helplessly.
The Knights Breathing Technique's training was mainly aimed at stimulating the Seed of Life. By continuously stimulating the body and the Seed of Life, it could stimulate the life energy and activate the Seed of Life.
However, once the Seed of Life was successfully activated, the effects of this stimulation would be greatly reduced, and it would be close to being ineffective.
Of course, if he trained for a long time, there would still be some effects. However, that speed was calculated in years, and it was already so slow that it was hard for Adil to accept.
According to the A.I. Chip's examination of his body, even with Adil's many modifications of the Dyer's Breathing Technique, it would still take him at least a year to increase his stats through training.
At this thought, he shook his head helplessly, but at the same time, he felt a trace of doubt.
"Since the Knights Breathing Technique is no longer of much use after advancing to a Knight, how did those extremely powerful Knights reach such a level?"
Adil looked at his stats.
[Name: Adil Farcus. Strength: 3.8. Agility: 3.7. Vitality: 3.8.]
Compared to before, after activating the Seed of Life, his stats were undoubtedly much more gorgeous.
After activating the life seed, the life energy in the knight's body would gradually improve the knight's physical quality in a short period of time.
From Adil's observations, this process was actually a process of adjusting one's body structure. As the Life Seed was activated, one's life itself would undergo a change, and one's body structure would become more perfect and undergo detailed optimization.
When the detailed optimization of the body structure was completed, the explosive increase in physical fitness would disappear. Moreover, because the body structure had become stronger, the effect of the training would also be weakened.
At this time, Adil had almost passed the period of rapid growth. From now on, his growth speed would become as slow as other knights.
"There should be another way."
This thought flashed through Adil's mind. He stood still and thought for a moment before putting the training sword back on the weapon rack. Then, he walked down the training ground and headed in a certain direction.
In the castle, Adil remembered that there was a special room for books.
He wanted to try his luck and see if he could find any useful information.
After walking for a long distance, there were servants bowing their heads respectfully to Adil from time to time, their faces filled with awe.
This was one of the results of his change in status.
Ever since he returned, the news of Adil's advancement to a knight had spread. In a short period of time, almost everyone in the castle knew about it.
Knights had a very high status in this era. Not only were they a symbol of status, but they also represented a powerful force that could protect the stability of a region. Becoming a knight was the ultimate dream of almost every ordinary person in this world.
On the other hand, advancing to a knight also meant that Adil's status would be different from now on.
As a knight, he would be valued in any country and would naturally enjoy the same status as nobles. In this world, even killing someone did not need to be investigated by the law. Naturally, he would be respected by others.
Paying no attention to these gazes, Adil's expression was calm as he walked all the way to a place.
It was a very large room with two guards guarding the door. When they saw Adil, they immediately became solemn.
"I want to enter. This is my proof."
Adil took out a badge from his waist. It was engraved with his family's emblem, the proof of his status as a noble.
"Sir, you must be joking." Looking at Adil's actions, one of the guards said with a respectful expression, "With your status, of course you can enter directly. As long as you don't take the things inside out, you can come back at any time."
Seeing this, Adil was taken aback, but he did not say anything. He only nodded and said, "Thank you."
The door in front of him was quickly opened. Adil looked in and sized up the layout inside in Silence.
There were many books here, many of which looked very old. However, they were very well preserved. There was not even a speck of dust on them. It seemed that people often came here to take care of them.
This was very normal. In this world, books were very precious things that only nobles would have. If this was not Count Poria's castle, it would not be possible for there to be so many books here.
Looking at the room that looked like a small library, Adil walked to the front and sized up the books.
The ages of these books were obviously different. Most of them seemed to be hand-copied rare books. The materials used to record them were beast skins, parchment, and even rough papyrus. They were all different.
Taking out a book at random, Adil flipped it open and slowly read.
This was a poem that sang the praises of a great war. It seemed to be something that happened in this area a long time ago.
99% of the book's contents were nonsense and eulogies that seemed to Adil. There was very little content that was actually involved. It only took up an extremely small portion of the book, leaving Adil speechless.
"A.I. Chip, record the information in the book and send it over after removing the redundant information."
After quickly flipping through the contents of the book, Adil's expression was calm as he gave the A.I. Chip an order.
Not long after, a large amount of information appeared in Adil's mind. It was as if he had memorized it countless times and it was deeply engraved in his memory.
This was also one of the functions of the A.I. Chip. It could help Adil quickly memorize large amounts of information and organize them.
With the help of the A.I. Chip, Adil's reading speed became very fast.
He flipped through the books one by one like he was flipping through a book. He directly let the A.I. Chip record the information and directly sent it to his mind.
Compared to normal reading and memorizing, this method was undoubtedly more efficient. It allowed Adil to quickly flip through book after book.
After an unknown amount of time, after picking up a biography, Adil's eyes lit up when he saw the contents.
This was the autobiography of a powerful Knight in the past. It recorded the life of this Knight. There were also some secrets that were worth recording. All of them were recorded in this biography.
Looking at this biography, Adil could not wait to read the contents.
… …
"… Knight, is the name given to a powerful person who has activated a Life Seed … To become a Knight, one must have the ability to activate a Life Seed … This kind of ability is very rare among commoners …"
"The ability of a Knight can be passed down to the descendants … Therefore, in noble families, it is more likely for talented people to appear …"
… …
With the help of the A.I. Chip, the contents of the book were quickly read and deeply engraved in Adil's mind.
In this biography, Adil had indeed obtained a part of the answer.
"A Knight, after activating a Life Seed, if one wants to continue improving, the only way is to continuously fight?"
Feeling the information in his mind, Adil muttered to himself doubtfully.
This former Knight seemed to be very powerful and had seen a lot of things. In his biography, he described all of the special traits of a Knight, including the path after activating a Life Seed and the power above that of a Knight.
According to what this Knight said, after activating a Life Seed and becoming a Knight, the Knight's Breathing Technique would practically lose its effect. If one wants to improve further, the only way is to continuously fight.
In a high intensity fight to the death, the potential of a Knight's body would be stimulated, slowly causing the life energy in their body to become stronger, and from there, the quality of their body would continue to increase.
According to the records in the book, this Knight who wrote this biography had fought countless times before. In the end, when he was around 40 years old, he was already close to the limits of a Knight and was about to reach the level of a Grand Knight.
Unfortunately, the record of the biography stopped at this point, and the records regarding the Grand Knight were not detailed at all.
Bang!
Silence, Adil closed the book and put it back. He continued to pull out the next book, wanting to find more useful information.
Unfortunately, it seemed that Adil's luck had already run out. The books that he could find after that were either poems or miscellaneous notes. There was basically not much useful information in the books, and all of them were just a bunch of nonsense.
Not knowing how much time had passed, when it was almost noon, only half of the books had not been read.
This speed was achieved with the help of the A.I. Chip. If word of this got out, it would definitely shock a lot of people.
Rubbing his slightly swollen head with his right hand, Adil continued to walk forward. He picked up another book and prepared to continue reading.
Adil stayed there the whole day until he finished reading all the books inside. Only then did he leave to go back to rest.
Even with the A.I. Chip's assistance in transmitting information, the influx of a large amount of information in such a short period of time still made Adil feel somewhat uncomfortable, and his head was a little swollen.
