Chapter 69 Meeting

  These two, whether it is the swift technique or the photo crystal production, are all selected by him through careful comparison!

   It cost him a total of 55 magic stones!

  Among them, 40 magic stones for swift technique, and 15 magic stones for photo crystal making book.

  Since then, his economic status has returned to before liberation, with only 5 magic stones left.

   After buying the photo crystal, Colin is ready to return to the house.

  But when he boarded the carriage, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing past his sight. He turned his head subconsciously, but only saw half a figure turning into the alleyway.

  ‘Looks like… Heywood? ’ Colin frowned slightly, a little uncertain.

  But in an instant, he put this matter behind him.

  Although Black Rock City is not big, it is just a small town, but after all, it has a population of more than 100,000 people. It is not easy to meet acquaintances, and it is more likely to be just a similar figure.

  …

   Tap Tap —

  The stone slab under the feet has become smooth and flat due to long-term walking, and there are rough and uneven stone walls on both sides. Due to humidity, cyan climbed out of those tortuous gaps tenaciously and adhered to the surface of the stone wall.

  Heywood's face was dull, and his steps were steady and regular. He walked forward step by step, and the sound of his footsteps echoed in the corridor.

  The long corridor leading to the ground has no light, and the only light is the bright crystal in his hand that is emitting soft light.

   Before long, he came to the end.

  Here is a wooden door, an ordinary log-colored wooden door, nothing special.

  Pausing at the door, Heywood waited quietly.

  He knew that the sound of his approaching footsteps could not be concealed from Lord Harrington inside. Besides, even if there were no footsteps, that adult could still feel his arrival.

"come in."

   He didn't make him wait for long, just a moment later, Harrington's steady voice came from inside.

  Heywood pushed the door open and went in.

  A small secret room came into view.

  He was slightly taken aback. At this time, the secret room was not as good as before, only Harrington was alone. Opposite Harrington, there was still a man dressed as an aristocrat standing at this time.

   But he didn't ask anything, and there was no room for him to speak here.

  Heywood stood aside quietly, standing silently like a sculpture.

   "Go ahead." Harrington said.

   Bowen, who was dressed as an aristocrat, glanced at Heywood, but he didn't care anymore, and continued talking about the topic just now.

   "Harrington, the day of my Lord's coming is not far away, are you ready?"

  His tone was a little tough, a little blunt.

   "Oh... I'm more worried about you than me here... I heard that the inspection office just caught a little bug not long ago?

  Your ceremony... nothing went wrong. "

  Harrington's complexion remained unchanged, his tone was soothing but equally tough.

   Dealing with this group of cult lunatics, the most taboo is timidity.

"snort!"

   Bowen snorted coldly, and said lightly.

   "You don't need to worry about it, my lord's return is unstoppable! You should hurry up and come up with some results. Bishop Oman is not as good-tempered as I am... If it takes a while, there will still be no progress.

  Then our agreement can only be voided..."

   After finishing speaking, Bowen turned and left from one of the hidden doors on the other side.

  Harrington watched quietly as the secret door closed, stroking a black scepter with dark golden lines in his hand.

  ‘Hope…these lunatics aren’t talking big. As an official wizard at the peak of the first order, Rapp is not so easy to deal with...

  Although the Flesh Lord of Thorns is strong, he still has some strength to come to this world...and because of this, I need my strength. '

   Shua!

  He swung his scepter and cast cleansing fel energy.

  The wave of witchcraft, which was far more powerful than that of the apprenticeship period, swept through the entire dark room like a breeze.

  He does this every time he's done with these cultists. This is a necessary measure. If you are not cautious, it is obviously impossible to seek skin from a tiger.

   After finishing these, he reached out and turned the mechanism on the wall behind him.

   There was only a click, and a fist-sized groove appeared on the wall behind it, which was originally tightly stitched.

  Raise the scepter, insert it into the groove, and activate the magic power. The bluestone wall suddenly shone slightly, undulating like the surface of water.

  Harrington took down the scepter and walked in. His figure was hidden in the bluestone wall, followed by Heywood.

  In the quiet basement, bright crystals emit soft light.

  Colin, who was standing in the middle, froze and cast a swift spell!

  In an instant, he felt as if he was wrapped in an invisible wind. Whether he was waving his hands or taking a step, he obviously felt a little faster than before!

  After some attempts, Colin showed a satisfied smile.

  Speed, speed in battle.

   In his opinion, it is mainly divided into two parts.

  One is the speed of its own movement! The other is the speed of reaction!

  The two complement each other in battle and achieve each other, and they are also indispensable.

   Swiftness, at present, seems to improve the speed of one's own movement!

  He made Colin even faster as a great knight.

   This faster, reflected in all aspects.

  Take the test just now as an example, it only takes 3 seconds for him to run around the basement now!

  The perimeter of the basement is about 50-60 meters.

   That is to say, at this speed, the time it takes him to run 100 meters now is about 5 to 6 seconds! This is still a rough estimate, after all, he is not sprinting in a straight line in the basement.

   Moreover, thanks to the abundant energy brought by the solar breathing method, he can last at least an hour at this speed!

   This is just the speed of running, and other speeds such as vertical jump and retreat have also been strengthened.

   This is only the initial state of Swiftness Art. After the limit is broken, the range of improvement should be even greater!

  Of course, only physical speed is not enough.

  This is also the weakness of the Swiftness Technique. No matter how fast the body is, if it cannot react when facing an attack, it will be useless.

   It just so happens that the second limit-breaking solar breathing method improves the reaction speed!

  Although he has not yet advanced to the ultimate great knight.

  But after advancing to the ultimate knight, the reaction speed is improved, and the body speed is also improved. It can be said that based on these alone, the slow fireball technique or acid liquid used by those wizards didn't even want to hit him!

  Even if it hits, he still has a lot of defenses. Even if the defense is breached, he still has a mid-level strong life!

  Colin dissipated the faint witchcraft aura from his body, and his heart was surrounded by a strong sense of security.

   Wiping off the sweat from exercising, he walked out of the basement and returned to the bedroom.

  ‘At this time, Renee should be ready to take a bath. '

   As he climbed the stairs, he thought.

  But he pushed open the bedroom door, but he saw that Renee was kneeling on the ground, wiping the floor with a rag.

  The girlish outfit in black and white outlines her youthful but still slender figure.

"grown ups."

  Hearing the sound of the door opening, Renee's body trembled suddenly, and she stood up quickly, holding a rag and bowing her head in greeting.

  Colin glanced at it and knew what happened.

   "Did you accidentally spill the hot water in the bath?"

   "Yes, my lord. Please punish me." Renee replied in a low voice.

  Colin also keenly noticed that the girl's right arm was already red, which should be the mark of being scalded by hot water.

  He looked up into the bathroom again, but the tub inside was filled with hot water.

   Without too much speculation, he could figure out that Renee must have scalded herself and insisted on filling up the hot water first.

   "Be careful next time."

   "Yes, my lord."

  Colin enters the bathroom and begins to take a bath.

   This is not the first time such a thing has happened. Fortunately, the hot water brought in is not very hot, and there have been no serious consequences...

   However, it is time to deal with it.

   I don’t know about asking Luke, what’s going on…
