things happening before our eyes passed quickly.
In front of Athir, looking at the sword mark more than three meters long next to him, Laman's expression suddenly fell.
The arrogant expression on his face immediately disappeared and was replaced by a respectful smile, as if he had seen the most distinguished guest.
Looking at the other person's appearance, Atier shook his head slightly, with the same expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
He refused the horse offered to him by the other party and just followed the other party on foot, moving slowly forward.
As the group slowly moved forward, the appearance of the village ahead slowly emerged. Buildings stood everywhere, most of which looked very old, as if they had been built a long time ago.
"Eri, take this gentleman to that room over there and have someone clean it up. Make sure this gentleman is satisfied!"
Walking in front and reaching the center of the village, Raman shouted at Raman who was standing beside him, asking him to take Athir over and settle him down.
Athir subconsciously looked in the direction he pointed and saw the tall building over there.
Compared with other old houses around it, this building looks much newer and should have been built not many years ago. The materials used are also obviously much better. It is a good place to live in this small village.
As if to please Athir, the other party not only placed him there, but also sent several people to help clean the room and handle various chores for him.
In the next few days, Raman came to visit every day, and never stopped even though he knew that Athir didn't speak the language.
············
Three days later.
On a flat ground, Athir practiced with the sword for a while and then stopped, standing aside and taking a rest.
"The seeds of life are becoming more and more active. It looks like we are getting close to that step."
Feeling the active life energy in his body, Athir stroked his chest with his left hand and thought to himself.
During this period, thanks to that unknown power, his physical fitness has improved greatly, reaching the peak level of a knight and reaching a certain limit.
The transformation of the body also drives the continuous improvement of the seed of life, and it also reaches a certain limit. As long as it takes one more step, the transformation will be completed.
"Grand Knight?" Athir muttered to himself while standing there, and then gave an order to the chip: "Chip, based on the existing data, simulate and deduce the conditions for the advancement of the Grand Knight!"
"The deduction mission has been completed!" In an instant, a mechanical voice came from my mind.
"To become a great knight, the basic condition is that all physical qualities must reach 5 or above. Then, through special methods, the body will be stimulated to complete the transformation of the life seed and drive the improvement of physical quality!"
"Stimulate the body?" Athir wondered to himself, "What methods can be used to do this?"
"It can be accomplished through high-intensity combat or by configuring special potions." The voice of the chip machine sounded again.
Hearing this, Atier calmed down a little and looked at his physical condition.
"Name: Athir Fakus. Strength: 5. Agility: 4.9. Constitution: 5."
This is the result of the past few days, and we are very close to reaching the basic conditions for advancement.
"My agility is not up to standard yet, and my other attributes are just barely up to standard. It looks like I need to work on it for a while."
Looking at his own attributes, Athir shook his head, picked up his sword, and walked forward.
Compared to his knight counterparts in the previous world, Athir has great advantages in this world.
He didn't need to risk his life to fight on the battlefield to stimulate his body, he only needed to keep hunting those mutated monsters to make progress. Although the progress was slow, it would be safe for a long time.
He walked much faster than the average person could run, and in a short while he reached the outskirts of the village.
There were several soldiers guarding there. When they saw Athir coming, they all looked at him with admiration and watched him leave.
"Quick, go and notify a few people to come over. There will be another body to pick up soon."
After Athir walked away, one of the guards looked around and said in an excited tone.
A man beside him immediately walked towards the village, and soon brought out a few people, riding horses and following Athir from a distance.
"Ding! Continuously hunting seventeen knight-level insect beasts can increase all attributes by 0.1!" The voice of the chip machine sounded again in my mind.
Under a huge tree that was completely black, Athir stood quietly and kicked the three-meter-tall insect beast in front of him away with one kick. It slammed heavily onto a boulder. Its huge body was pierced by the sharp part of the boulder and it was obviously dead.
"We still have seventeen to kill."
Listening to the voice coming from the chip in his mind, Atier sighed slightly, feeling a little helpless.
Although there are many monsters in the wilderness, most of them are weak creatures. Unless you kill thousands of them, there won't be much benefit.
Although there are powerful mutant monsters, many of them make him feel dangerous now. In this situation, it is not easy to find suitable prey to hunt.
For the entire morning, Atier only found these few insect beasts in front of him, and nothing else.
This progress made him feel helpless, and he missed the black crystal core he had obtained.
Compared to the hard work of hunting mutant beasts, that kind of crystal core is the big deal.
Most of the attributes that Athir has gained during this period are due to that crystal core.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from behind, and several figures on horseback were rushing towards here.
They came specifically to pick up these corpses. The corpses of these mutated beasts are very precious food ingredients, and only a very few people can eat them occasionally under normal circumstances.
These people will drag back Athir's prey, and a small half of the food will be returned to Athir, and the rest will be their reward.
Athir didn't pay attention to their actions. He looked in one direction, ready to continue looking for the next prey.
After a short rest at noon, Athir hunted three or four more prey throughout the afternoon. He waited until it gradually darkened before returning to the village.
The nights in this world are far more dangerous than the days. It seems that all kinds of strange things are going to happen, and even Athir doesn't want to be involved.
When he arrived at the village gate, Athir was slightly stunned.
There, there were several people lying on the ground, surrounded by a large group of people, and they looked very unhappy.
Looking at this scene, he moved his feet, walked forward quickly, and observed the figures on the ground.
There were several corpses. Judging from their attire, they were probably hunters from this village. No one knew what had happened to them that caused them to become like this.
"What happened?"
In the distance, Raman walked from the center of the village, frowned at the bodies lying on the ground and asked.
"We don't know yet." A guard quickly replied, "These people didn't come back for the past two days. They were found this morning, collapsed in the wooden house by the river. They were already dead when they were found."
After hearing this explanation, the faces of the people around him suddenly changed.
In this world, the death of a few people is not uncommon, and many people die almost every period of time.
But if it was a normal death, the body would definitely not be kept intact in the wild, and would be divided up by various monsters overnight.
Thinking of this, Raman's face looked a little bad, and his right hand, which was originally stretched out, began to tremble slightly.
He suppressed his fear and led his men to check the bodies. Then he said in a trembling voice, "There are no wounds on the bodies."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around them suddenly changed color, and immediately moved away from the corpses in front of them as if they had seen a plague, with unspeakable fear in their eyes.
"Cream these bodies immediately, and no one is allowed to go to that wooden house by the river from now on!"
Raman's face turned pale. He suppressed his fear and gave orders to the people around him.
