The mist has a strange smell, which is very spicy to the nose and eyes. After touching it for a while, my eyes are already crying.

Alicia waved her hand towards Zheng Yan, and a warm feeling flashed across her face, making her eyes and nose feel much better.

After passing through the foggy area, Zheng Yan and Alicia arrived at the bottom of the canyon. Zheng Yan saw dark mines, full of hard-working workers carrying frames of blue ore, and mine carts.

Cars are moving in one direction of the canyon, and empty mine cars are driving in the other direction. Everyone is like a machine that never stops, as cold as if there is no life.

After Alicia and Zheng Yan appeared, the supervisor in the distance had already noticed. He did not come to ask, but went in the other direction. After a while, a knight in armor came over.
p>

A true noble knight!

The whole body is wrapped in silver armor, wearing a white cloak, with short golden hair, an exquisite and standard aristocratic face, and every gesture shows the gentleman's demeanor.

"Dear Ms. Alicia, I didn't expect you to come in person. It's really unbecoming of me not to meet you for the first time."

The blond knight demonstrated chivalry etiquette, and it was obvious that he knew each other when he spoke. Zheng Yan felt that if the environment did not allow it, this guy would probably kiss the back of the nun's hand.

"Knight Rolando." Alicia bowed slightly with a professional smile, then looked at Zheng Yan and introduced: "This is... Zheng Yan, a swordsman."

"Oh, Zheng Yan." Knight Rolando looked at Zheng Yan, stared at the ghost hand, and said with a smile: "I was infected by the ghost hand, and I actually chose the path of a swordsman. I am very brave."

"As long as you don't succumb to the obstruction of ghosts and gods, you can choose any path." Zheng Yan nodded to Knight Rolando without saluting, not even bowing like Alicia, which made Knight Rolando pay more attention.

.

However, a person of his status would not pay too much attention to Zheng Yan. He then exchanged pleasantries with Alicia and led Alicia towards the distant station.

Workers and supervisors were surrounding them. When they saw Knight Rolando, they all stepped away and saluted. They waited until Knight Rolando was far away before continuing to work.

"I've already moved several large boxes of ore in the spare time I have to pay respects." Zheng Yan complained in his heart, and suddenly saw something that attracted him.

After entering the garrison, only the guards of Knight Rolando were left, all of them were "swordsmen" holding knight swords. What Zheng Yan noticed was the place headed by the garrison.

It was a forging bench and a whetstone, and a big blacksmith was sharpening his knives there, sweating profusely.

Zheng Yan walked over, looked at the other party's technique, and remembered a few of his own design drawings. He suspected that even if he had the design drawings, he would not be able to succeed on his own.

Feeling that the people around her were missing, Alicia turned her head and saw this scene, so she also walked over.

Knight Rolando on the side was puzzled that Alicia cared so much about this child, so he patiently followed him.

"Lord Rolando." The blacksmith saluted Knight Rolando and put down all work.

"What do you need?" Alicia asked softly.

"I need a sophisticated weapon to verify certain things." Zheng Yan looked back and forth at the long swords lying on the forging table. None of them were much better than the two weapons he had on him.

"Oh, are they sophisticated weapons?" Knight Rolando saw the long sword on Zheng Yan's back and the sword at his waist, "The weapons I have here are incomparable to the ordinary weapons on the market."

Zheng Yan shook his head, but did not say that these weapons were "white clothes and rubbish". He said calmly: "These are ordinary weapons. What I mean by sophisticated is extraordinary, such as..."

He looked around and finally saw the knight's sword on Knight Rolando's waist. His eyes lit up and he said, "Just like this one."

Alicia shook her head, smiled softly, and patted Zheng Yan on the back, "You may have a chance to get such a weapon in the future."

"Haha." Knight Rolando also laughed. He felt very fresh about Zheng Yan's behavior of not being afraid of the powerful. After all, there was no child who did not regard knights as heroes in their hearts. He himself was also proud of his status as a knight.

I met a stranger for the first time today.

"Then, I allow you to hold my weapon for a while, just for a while." Knight Rolando said with a smile.

Zheng Yan wondered, didn't the noble knight attach great importance to his status as a powerful person, why would he let an outsider like him, who was nothing, touch his weapon?

"Oh." Zheng Yan vaguely noticed the little look in Knight Rolando's eyes. It seemed that he wanted to show his grace in front of Sister Alicia, "You might as well give me this sword."

The sword hilt was inlaid with two gems, and the scabbard had gorgeous gold and silver patterns. The knight's sword, which exuded an aura of power, was handed to Zheng Yan, and Zheng Yan held the hilt.

Clang!

The knight's sword was drawn out, the silver light shone, and the crystal clear sword body was revealed, a truly extraordinary product.

Zheng Yan's whole body trembled, and a sense of impulse almost came out of his body.

[Preliminary task for job transfer: Don’t succumb to the obstacles of ghosts and gods, and practice your sword skills as always. Isn’t this the limit of martial arts?”]

[To meet the prerequisites: Knight’s sterling silver dagger X1]

Pick it up!

Zheng Yan swung the air violently, and the sharp wind whistled. The white light suddenly appeared on the knight's sword, and the air he slashed was twisted like a flame.

"Sword energy!" Knight Rolando looked at Zheng Yan in shock, subconsciously touched his waist, and then remembered that his sword was in Zheng Yan's hand.

Blacksmiths and guards passing by, no one who saw Zheng Yan was not shocked by Zheng Yan's move just now. You must know that Zheng Yan only looked about fifteen years old.

The initial stage of a "swordsman" is to skillfully use the sword in his hand, and then he will understand the sword energy. The sword energy is the source of the skill. The basis of the "swordsman" skill is the condensation of the sword energy, otherwise it can only be the most basic slashing.

, unable to use the gorgeous "sword skills".

In other words, the child in front of me has mastered "sword energy" that other adults may not be able to do, and is qualified to use "sword skills".

"Those skills you use are all sword skills, not sword skills?" Alicia looked at Zheng Yan strangely, "But if they are sword skills, they are a bit too simple. Are they limited by the quality of the sword?"

"That's not true, those are just basic skills." Zheng Yan thought to himself, looking at the gorgeous knight sword in his hand with covetousness, and handed the hilt to Knight Rolando, "Thank you, Rolando

Knight."

"Ah, it's nothing." Knight Rolando took over his knight's sword and laughed: "Really, I am so accomplished in swordsmanship at such a young age, I wonder if I can have a teacher."

"It's time for us to talk about business." Alicia said suddenly. She knew that Zheng Yan's answers to these questions were just lies, so she might as well change the topic herself.
