The matter in front of him passed quickly.
Looking at the sword mark that was more than two meters deep before Adil's eyes, La Man's expression suddenly collapsed.
The arrogant expression on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a respectful smile, as if he had met the most distinguished guest.
Looking at La Man's expression, Adil shook his head indiscernibly. He still had the same expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
He rejected La Man's offer of a horse, and directly followed him on foot, slowly walking forward.
As the group slowly moved forward, the appearance of the village was gradually revealed. Buildings were erected everywhere, and most of them looked very old, as if they had been built a long time ago.
"Erry, bring this lord to that house over there and get someone to clean it up. Make sure this lord is satisfied!"
Walking at the front, Raman berated Raman, who was standing at the side, when they reached the centre of the village, telling him to bring Adil there and settle him down properly.
Adil subconsciously looked in the direction that Raman was pointing, and saw a tall building there.
Compared to the other old residences, this building looked much newer. It had probably been built not too long ago, and the materials used were obviously much better. In this small village, it was not a bad place to stay.
As if to curry favor with Adil, not only did Raman arrange for him to stay there, he even specially sent a few people to help him clean the house and take care of various chores.
In the next few days, Raman specially came to visit every day, even knowing that Adil did not speak the same language.
… …
Three days later.
On a flat piece of land, Adil held his sword and trained for a while before stopping, standing at the side to rest.
"The life seed is becoming more and more active. It seems like I'm close to that step."
Feeling the activity of the life energy in his body, Adil thought to himself as he stroked his chest with his left hand.
In this period of time, thanks to that unknown power, his body's quality had improved greatly. He had already reached the peak of a Knight, and had reached a certain limit.
The transformation of his body had also led to the growth of the life seed, and it had also reached a certain limit. With just one more step, the transformation would be complete.
"Grand Knight, huh?" Standing on the spot, Adil muttered to himself, and then ordered the A.I. Chip, "A.I. Chip, according to the current information, simulate the conditions for advancing to a Grand Knight!"
"Deduction mission completed!" In an instant, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
"The basic condition for advancing to a Grand Knight is that all of your body's attributes must reach 5 or above. Then, you must use a special method to stimulate your body, allowing your life seed to complete its metamorphosis and improve your body's attributes!"
"Stimulate the body?" Adil muttered to himself in confusion, "Is there any way to do that?"
[Through high-intensity battles, or through the use of special potions.] The A.I. Chip's robotic voice sounded again.
Hearing this, Adil calmed down a little and looked at his physical attributes.
"Name: Adil Farcus. Strength: 5 Agility: 4.9 Constitution: 5. "
This was the result of the past few days, and he was very close to meeting the basic requirements for advancement.
My Agility isn't up to par yet, and my other Attributes are barely up to par as well. It seems I'll have to work hard for a while more.
Looking at his own Attributes, Adil shook his head, picked up his sword, and walked forward.
Compared to his fellow Knights in the previous world, Adil had a great advantage in this world.
He did not need to risk his life on the battlefield to stimulate his body. He only needed to constantly hunt those mutated monsters to improve. Although his progress was very slow, he would still be safe for a long time.
His walking speed was much faster than an average person's, and it didn't take long for him to reach the outskirts of the village.
There were a few warriors guarding there. After seeing Adil come over, they all looked at him with reverence and watched him leave.
"Quick, go and inform a few people to come over. There will be corpses to pick up soon."
After Adil had gone far away, one of the guards said in an excited tone as he looked around.
The person beside him immediately walked into the village, and soon brought out a few people who followed Adil from afar on horseback.
[Beep! Continuously killing 17 Knight-rank Insect Beasts will increase all attributes by 0.1!] The A.I. Chip's robotic voice sounded in his mind once again.
Under a large black tree, Adil stood in Silence. He kicked the three-meter-tall Insect Beast in front of him, sending it flying and crashing into a large boulder. Its large body was pierced through by the sharp parts of the boulder, and it seemed like it would not survive.
"You still need to kill 17 more."
Hearing the A.I. Chip's voice in his mind, Adil sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
Although there were many monsters in the wilderness, most of them were weak lifeforms. Unless he killed a few thousand of them, there would not be many benefits.
Although there were powerful mutant monsters, many of them could make him feel threatened. Under such circumstances, it would not be easy to find suitable prey to hunt.
After spending the entire morning, Adil had only found these few Insect Beasts in front of him, and he had not found anything else.
This kind of progress made him feel very helpless, and he began to miss the black crystal core that he had obtained.
Compared to painstakingly hunting mutated beasts, the crystal core was much more valuable.
Most of Adil's increase in attributes during this period of time was due to the crystal core.
The sound of footsteps could be heard from behind. There were a few figures on horses rushing over.
They were here to pick up these corpses. The corpses of these mutated beasts were very precious ingredients, and very few people would have the chance to eat them.
These people would drag Adil's prey back, and in the end, they would return a small portion of the food to Adil, and the rest would be their reward.
Adil did not pay attention to their actions. He looked in a direction and prepared to look for his next prey.
After a short rest at noon, Adil hunted another three or four prey for the entire afternoon. He waited until the sky slowly darkened before he chose to return to the village.
The night in this world was far more dangerous than the day, and it seemed that all sorts of strange things would happen. Even Adil did not want to be involved in them.
When he reached the entrance of the village, Adil was slightly stunned.
There were a few people lying on the ground, surrounded by a large group of people, and their expressions did not look good.
Seeing this, he moved his feet and sped up to the front, observing the few figures on the ground.
They were a few corpses, and from the way they were dressed, they should be the hunters of this village. He did not know what had happened to them to become like this.
"What happened?"
In the distance, Raman walked over from the center of the village, frowning as he looked at the few corpses on the ground.
"We don't know yet. One of the guards hurriedly replied, "These people didn't return for the past two days. In the end, they were found this morning in the wooden house by the river. When they were found, they were already dead."
Hearing this explanation, the expressions of the people around them changed.
In this world, it was not uncommon for people to die, and many people would die almost every once in a while.
However, if it was a normal death, the corpses would not be intact in the wild, and the corpses would be eaten by all sorts of monsters in a night.
Thinking of this, Raman's expression did not look good, and his right hand that had been stretched out slightly trembled.
He suppressed the fear in his heart and brought his men to check the corpses, saying with a trembling voice, "There are no wounds on the corpses."
Hearing this, the expressions of the people around them changed, and they immediately distanced themselves from the corpses as if they had seen the plague. Their eyes were filled with indescribable fear.
"Cremate these corpses immediately, and no one is allowed to go to the wooden house by the river in the future!"
