The outcome of the battle was no surprise, with Eric knocking Russell’s stainless steel sword away as the final outcome.
In terms of pure swordsmanship, Eric was far from Russell’s opponent.
But after all, he is a fantasy beast knight, and his own fighting spirit combines with the fantasy beast’s Yuan Power to form a more powerful Yuan Qi. The blessing of Yuan Xi on physical fitness, as well as the sword light displayed by Yuan Xi, can crush Dou Qi.
“Huh!” Russell looked at his empty hands, and the sense of superiority brought about by his sudden increase in strength quickly faded.
This is a good thing.
This was also the reason why he rashly challenged Eric, which was to temper his wandering heart through the powerful strength of the Phantom Beast Knight.
Only in this way can we correctly face the extraordinary power and understand that we are still in the beginning stage.
Russell was not disappointed for long before he smiled calmly and said: “Compared with Teacher Eric, I’m still far behind.”
Eric would not comfort people, but said in a low voice: “My lord, my strength has surpassed that of Jack and Tom, and my swordsmanship is even sharper, but my fighting spirit is not strong enough.”
“Of course, compared to you, my fighting spirit is definitely not solid.”
“Sir, your strength has increased by leaps and bounds. I don’t know why?” Eric asked the doubt in his heart.
“Without him, a flying dragon from my grandpa’s family liked me, so he breathed out a mouthful of original dragon breath to help me practice.” Russell explained briefly, “That’s why we can quickly connect the main meridians and release the fighting energy.”
“Original Dragon Breath?” Eric’s eyes widened.
“Shh, don’t be surprised, it’s just a small bite.” Russell said there was no need to make a fuss.
But the way Eric looked at him clearly had a hint of resentment.
At the beginning, he had to practice hard from dawn to dusk, and endured countless hardships before he could penetrate the main meridians. However, Russell easily obtained the Dragon Breath of the Origin of the Mouth, and then…then penetrated all the main meridians.
The comparison between the two makes people want to cry without tears.
However, the sorrow only lasted for a moment, and Eric said excitedly: “Sir, given such an opportunity, I believe you will be promoted to a great knight soon!”
“In three to five months, we should be able to dig out branch meridians throughout the body early next year,” Russell said.
“Congratulations, sir!”
Russell said with emotion: “Promoting to a great knight is just the beginning of cultivation. We have to polish the fighting spirit chain as soon as possible before we can contract with the fantasy beast.”
“Sir, are you planning to contract a fantasy beast as soon as possible?” Eric wondered, “Can you get a breath of the original dragon breath…don’t you wait and wait to ride the dragon?”
“Ride a dragon, ride a dragon, how can it be so easy to ride a dragon?” Russell shook his head, “How should I put it, I don’t think about riding a dragon now, I want to become a fantasy beast knight as soon as possible, so that I can protect myself to a certain extent. Say it again.”
Riding a dragon is not his ultimate goal.
Fighting hard in the snowfield and feeding the little Menglong to grow up are his most important things.
Just after the fight with Eric ended, four knights, Jack, Tom, John, and James, also arrived one after another.
Russell did not let the four of them go, and fought with them one after another, and then won fiercely.
Now, not only has he dug more meridians than the knights’ retinue, but the quality of his fighting spirit also exceeds that of the knights’ retinues. Coupled with his extremely sharp swordsmanship, his strength can crush these four knights’ retinues in a single step.
“My lord, you are mighty!” Jack and the other four people were obviously a little discouraged and felt a strong sense of frustration after losing to Russell.
He doesn’t even dare to covet the red-eyed rat king anymore.
However, Russell comforted the four of them: “Practice hard and you won’t be able to wait for the Red-Eyed Rat King, but the fantasy beasts in the territory will never be just Kevin and Red-Eye. Whoever can be promoted to the Great Knight will have the opportunity to make a contract. “
“Yes, sir!” The knights’ servants cheered up a little.
After Charles arrived, Russell took the Red-Eyed Rat King with him and set off to Netherlight Town with Charles.
Two hours later, we arrived at Youguang Town, and then we first went to the Wuyao Snake Brick Kiln near Youguang Town.
“Sir, why are you here?” Xiao William, the person in charge of the brick kiln factory, hurriedly came out. “The factory is a bit chaotic. During the day, the masters are working in the pottery kiln factory, and the workers are not yet skilled.”
Russell, led by Little William, took a look at the smoldering kiln, but couldn’t see anything interesting about it.
He said: “I have looked at the muck bricks. The quality of the recent batches is good, much better than the rocks mined in the mountains. However, the quality and energy consumption should be further studied to see if they can be further improved and the output should be expanded. “
Little William wondered: “Sir, there is not enough coal in Fluorescent Castle to share profits, so it is impossible to expand production.”
“The Shanhe Commercial Road has used thunder beasts to pull carts. Isn’t the coal enough?”
“It’s still not enough.”
“Well, I’ll think of a solution.” Russell was also helpless about this. Youguang Valley cannot produce its own energy and can only transport it from outside, which greatly restricts production efficiency.
He secretly thought: “It would be great if the dragon that my great-grandfather picked up back then was a black coal dragon or a black oil dragon…but he picked up a clay dragon. The clay needs to be fired, which consumes a lot of coal resources…”
If you pick up a gem dragon, your energy needs will be greatly reduced.
Russell then wandered around the corner of the brick kiln, pointed out a few potential safety hazards, asked William to correct them, and then left.
This time, I went to a cigar factory not far away.
The cigar factory was the original shredded tobacco factory. After cooperating with Russell, Baron Roman changed the entire shredded tobacco factory into a cigar factory, responsible for the production of Yulong cigars.
“Master Russell, welcome to visit the cigar factory.” The person in charge of the cigar factory is a knight who is missing an arm. He is obviously unable to fight, so he was assigned to take charge here by Baron Roman.
“Your Excellency Sosco, I won’t disturb you, right?” Russell asked with a squinted smile.
Southco smiled and said: “How could it be? Master Russell is welcome to come at any time. Speaking of the Yulong cigars produced by the cigar factory, they are also the new sun-cured cigarettes invented by Master Russell. The Baron attaches great importance to this.”
“I not only invented Yulong cigars, but your cigar factory also produces them for me.” Russell walked around the cigarette factory, frowning.
His expression also became serious: “Mr. Sosco, please answer me, why doesn’t the cigar factory accept my clerk for quality supervision and management?”
“Your clerk, do you mean this Mr. Charles?” Southco frowned, “I’m sorry, Master Russell, the cigar factory is the property of the Baron. Although Mr. Charles is your chief clerk, he is not qualified to come. supervision.”
“You are OEM for me, don’t you understand?”
“That may be the case, but I am only responsible to the Baron.” Sosco’s tone became stiff.
“Do you need me to accuse your father of your inaction?” Russell said coldly.
“I have done nothing, Master Russell, and you must tell the truth when you speak. I have been serving the Baron diligently!” Southco held his head high, threw up his empty sleeves, and said, “I fight for the Lord, and I never I have slacked off, even if my arm is broken!”
As the Broken Arm Knight, Sosco had made military exploits for the Fluorescent Fungus Family, so he was not afraid of Russell, the second son of the Fluorescent Fungus Family.
In essence, Russell was already a vassal of Baron Roman, and there was no distinction between him and him.
Looking at the unruly Southco, Russell also knew that if the other party didn’t sell his face, he really couldn’t do anything to him.
However, he quickly pointed to the production line where the cigars were being rolled, and started to accuse seriously: “Sosco, you said that you did your best for the family and my father, but is this how you repay my father’s trust in you?”
Sosco was stunned: “What?”
“Uryū cigars are to be presented to the nobles. The first batch is to be given to my grandfather, the Flying Dragon Knight, Earl of Flos, the former Chief Consul of the Council of Elders, Merlin Ujiuka-sama to enjoy, and will be given to the Grand Duke in the future. Enjoy!”
Russell picked up a freshly rolled cigar, then opened it in two or two, and shook a few broken leaves in his hand: “Yulong Cigar has clear needs, and each cigar must use a complete leaf. Tobacco leaves!”
He pinched the broken leaves on his fingertips and scolded: “Is this the result of you always doing your best for my father? Who are you fooling!”
