Chapter 58 It was early
morning and the sun illuminated the earth.
In a spacious room, a handsome young man sat quietly on a wooden chair, reading a book in his hand.
He reads very fast, almost as fast as turning pages of a book, compared to the slow speed of others, which makes people doubt whether he can understand the content clearly.
"Recording completed, transmission started!"
After finishing a book, the sound of the chip machine sounded again in my mind.
At the same time, a stream of information quickly surged from the mind and was transmitted to the memory.
Athir shook his head to dispel the momentary confusion caused by the transmission, then picked up another book and flipped through it quickly.
He flipped through the pages very quickly, and before he knew it, all the books on the wooden table had been flipped through.
"That's all for today."
Looking at the books filling the wooden table, Atier shook his head and stood up. After relaxing his body a little, he walked to the side and put the books on the wooden table back to their original bookshelf one by one.
Looking at the books on the bookshelf that he had almost read through, Atier couldn't help feeling a little dazed.
Before he knew it, more than a month had passed since he came here.
During this month or so, he was not completely idle.
Because it is located in a prosperous area in the south, the number of books collected by Duke Arieu is much larger than that of Count Polya. If all the rare books and precious materials hidden there were taken out, several small libraries could be built.
These are the connotations of nobility, and also symbolize the strength and history of a noble family.
During this period, Athir devoted himself to these precious books, studying them day and night to enrich his knowledge.
Due to his mentality as a researcher in his previous life, compared to others, Athir can endure loneliness better and can find his own pleasure in a pile of cold books and knowledge.
This attitude, coupled with the strong learning ability derived from the chip, enabled him to finish reading all the books in more than a month.
After gently arranging and putting away all the books on the wooden table, Athir walked over and looked at his physical attributes.
"Name: Athir Fakus. Strength: 10.1. Agility: 9.9. Constitution: 10.2."
"The subject has reached the limit of the body!" The cold voice of the chip in the mind sounded.
After more than a month, under the influence of the remaining red crystal core, his physical fitness finally reached its current peak and reached the point where there was no room for improvement.
As for the red crystal core, it was consumed long ago.
Thinking of this, Atier felt helpless.
He picked up his sword from the wooden table, then walked out of the room and quickly walked to a flat ground.
This is the training ground specially prepared for him by Duke Arieu. Not only are there various training equipment placed around the training ground, but there are also special servants constantly serving on the side. This can be said to be an excellent treatment.
In fact, Duke Arie had mentioned before that if Athir wanted, he could even send a great knight to serve as a sparring partner for him, and it would be no problem to find someone specifically to test his sword for him.
The first one is okay, but the second one is a bit outrageous.
The so-called sword trial is to specifically find some people to chop with, and practice directly with human flesh and blood. This can not only enhance the knight's familiarity with the human body structure, but also practice some secret skills.
It is said that in the process of practicing some ancient secret techniques of killing, one must use flesh and blood to test the sword. There are also some murderous knights who enjoy killing people to test their swords.
Although Atier doesn't think he is a good person, he won't be so cruel unless it is necessary.
However, although he rejected these proposals, it can be seen that Duke Arieux supported him personally. He would not dare to say that he did not give his all, but it was probably not far from that.
He walked quietly to the center of the training ground and stood there, then Athir slowly drew the long sword from his waist.
The long sword made of black steel was slowly pulled out and held in his hand, and then stabbed forward at an angle, starting his daily training.
Upward thrust, straight stab, forward thrust...a series of basic movements became increasingly smooth in Athir's hands, without any of the awkwardness that others had during training.
After a while, Atier finished this training, stood there and felt the changes in his body, and nodded with some satisfaction.
During this period when his physical strength reached its limit, in order to improve his combat power, Athir had to find ways from other aspects.
Although the sword technique in front of him was the most basic one, it was re-deduced through the powerful analytical ability of the chip and was the most standard sword technique suitable for the human body.
Compared to the past, this new and concise sword technique is not only easier to use, but also reduces the various damages caused by its use to a minimum.
Not only basic swordsmanship, during this period of time, through the chip, Athir also re-deduced several sets of swordsmanship, and even re-deduced the original Athir breathing method, which seemed much more advanced.
This was all thanks to the unstinting support of Duke Arieux.
With the other party's support, a large amount of originally precious information, whether it was the knight's breathing method or the precious advanced swordsmanship, were all open to Athir.
With hundreds of years of accumulation in a principality, Athir was able to collect enough basic data for analysis and deduction.
According to the chip's deduction and simulation, the new Di'er breathing method is not only effective for the knight stage, but can also play a certain training role for the great knight. It also reduces a lot of risks and stability, and can completely throw all other knight breathing methods aside.
However, for Athir, this is still of no use, but it is suitable for training some knights in the future.
Athir stood there and shook his head, thinking so in his heart.
Standing there for a while, he seemed to remember something, walked to a corner, raised the sword in his right hand, and slowly chopped down towards his left arm.
He did not use too much force in this sword strike. The sword fell gently and slowly chopped to one side under the action of gravity, making a slight sound.
Athir only felt a slight pain in his left arm, which then quickly disappeared as if it had never occurred.
He took away the sword and looked at his left arm. There was a slight sword mark on it, but it quickly disappeared as the sword was taken away.
"Has it come to this?"
He spoke to himself.
Although Hei Rui didn't use much force in this strike, the sharpness of Hei Rui's sword would have been enough to cut off other people's arms if it had hit them. But this time, it only left a red mark on his hand.
This is the result of overall physical fitness reaching ten.
This is not just an increase in strength and speed, but also includes an increase in the body's defense and recovery ability. All in all, he is already a superman.
"Chip, simulate the result of my head-on battle with a hundred-man army. The opponent's physical fitness and equipment are mainly from the Black Knights." Standing in place, Athir gave orders to the chip in his mind.
"Mission established!" In an instant, the chip in his mind responded to him.
A scene began to emerge and began to evolve with the support of the chip's massive computing power.
On the deserted plain, Athir's figure was simulated first. Opposite him, a team of a hundred men was rushing towards him.
Looking at the army on the opposite side, Athir's face was expressionless and he rushed forward with his sword in hand.
He raised his sword and swung it down. Every swing of the sword would mobilize the life energy in his body, condense into fighting spirit on the sword, and cut the warrior in front of him into two pieces.
The weapons of the warriors in front of him hit him, but except for the attacks of a few people, they could only break a layer of skin and could not cause serious injuries to him, so he quickly dealt with them.
He was very fast and efficient in killing people, with a soldier falling to the ground almost every few seconds. Even if the soldiers around him wanted to rush forward and surround him, he would easily break through them and eventually kill them one by one.
Soon, the battle ended and ended with Athir's victory, without even suffering any serious injuries.
Feeling the end, Athir continued the simulation and directly increased the number of opponents by one hundred.
This time, Athir still won, but it was obviously more difficult and he was not as cool and calm as he had shown last time.
When there are 300 people, Athir will still win, but at a certain price.
··········
As the number of people increased, Athir's victory became more and more difficult. Finally, when the number of people exceeded 500, his victory finally began to become unstable.
Athir simulated this several times, and the final result was either that he won a tragic victory, or that he was surrounded and killed after killing most of the opposing warriors.
With so many people, in a frontal battle, no matter how fast Athir is, he can't avoid the attacks of all the soldiers. Even if he is powerful and can kill several people with each sword, there will also be more weapons hitting him.
Although his defense and recovery ability are strong, once facing such a siege, he will be exhausted and it will become extremely difficult to win.
"It seems that this is the limit of the Great Knight."
Feeling the results of the simulation in his mind, Athir stood there and shook his head and said.
Strictly speaking, this is just a rough simulation and can only be used for reference and estimation.
The actual situation is much more complicated than the simulated one.
Weapons and armor, terrain, the eliteness of the soldiers...all these factors will affect the actual results.
Not all warriors are like the Black Knights under Arcadilla, who possess such elite warriors and the best weapons and armor.
Apart from anything else, if the 500 Black Knights fought against ordinary troops, they would probably be able to win easily even if the enemy had several times more people than themselves.
Under normal circumstances, if they really collided with the Black Knights, facing a great knight like Athir, the other party would definitely use long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows.
Under normal circumstances, Athir would not be foolish enough to confront the army head-on. Relying on his individual mobility and concealment, he would have plenty of ways to wear down the enemy.
Thinking of this, Atier shook his head, put away the sword in his hand, and walked away.
