Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Ruian's excitement was long gone, and he returned to his peaceful blacksmithing life.
The mercenary competition outside is still going on in full swing, but it has nothing to do with Ruian anymore. Ruian is like being isolated in another world if he doesn't step out of the blacksmith shop.
After his mood returned to calm, Ruian kept thinking about what to do next.
This is a very important question.
Ruian really doesn't want to spend his whole life working like this. Not to mention Ruian who now has memories of his past life, even Ruian who had no ambitions and was confused before doesn't want to stay in the blacksmith shop and wants to go out and make a career.
It's just that now Ruian doesn't want to be impulsive and go out without any purpose. He needs to plan his move and thoroughly plan his future plan before going out.
So in the past few days, Ryan has been thinking about this issue in his mind.
There are not many careers to choose from in this world, far less than in the previous world, and most of the careers in this world are linked to strength. If you have strong strength, there are many good careers to choose from.
The experience of this mercenary competition completely changed Ruian's original disapproval of fighting spirit.
In the final stage, when facing a level 4 swordsman, a stick weighing 40 to 50 kilograms was easily blocked by a long sword full of fighting spirit. This completely dispelled Ryan's previous contempt for fighting spirit.
When facing a level 5 swordsman, the opponent's sword could easily cut off Ruian's thick stick. This made Ruian feel that his life was in danger. If he was not competing, but had a grudge against someone, his life would be at risk.
In such a fighting situation, Ruian felt that he might be split in half by the sword light.
Ryan finally understood how important fighting spirit was in this world. He was thinking that if he could fight with fighting spirit, he wouldn't need to rely on those weird methods to plot against others in this mercenary competition.
As for magic that is more advanced than fighting spirit, Ruian doesn't know much. He just knows that magic requires talent. Once you become a magician, you will have stronger strength and a more noble status than a swordsman. Regarding this, Ruian
I don't have much extravagant expectations now.
Ruian decided that the top priority was to learn fighting spirit and work hard to improve his strength.
Judging from what I know so far and considering my own situation, entering an academy to learn fighting spirit is the only way, just like going to school in my previous life.
Ruian counted all his possessions and found that there were a little more than fifteen gold coins in total. From what Ruian had inquired about, it seemed that this money could pay for one year's tuition. Since it was enough to pay for the tuition, Ruian decided to go to college.
After making his decision, Ruian plans to go out to find someone to find out about the school's situation tomorrow.
But before that, Ruian felt that he still needed to reflect and summarize his own strength.
The physical exercise you have been insisting on is definitely good. But now it has reached its limit, and your strength can no longer be improved through physical exercise. But you cannot give up, and you need to continue exercising, otherwise your physical condition will deteriorate.
"In addition to fighting spirit, we also need a better training method to further improve our strength."
"The equipment created for participating in the mercenary competition needs to be improved."
Chain armor is the most effective. It even blocked the attack of a small fireball during the game. The protective effect is comparable to that of iron armor, and its flexibility is better. But I wonder if it can block the swordsman's long sword full of fighting spirit? This
It probably can't be stopped, after all, the chain armor is made of ordinary iron. It seems that in the future plan, we will search for the strongest iron to build a chain armor that can withstand fighting spirit.
Yin stick? It’s very heavy and has a lot of strength. Ruian thought it was very lethal before, but it turned out that it was okay against ordinary people and junior swordsmen, but it showed its lethality when dealing with intermediate and above swordsmen.
This is a shortcoming. Moreover, the Yin Stick can be used in competitive situations where killing is prohibited. However, if it is used to fight for other people's lives in the future, the shortcoming of insufficient lethality will be more obvious.
"This weapon must be changed. It seems that we have to conform to the trend of this world and use a sword instead?"
Ruian really couldn't bear to part with the stick technique that he had worked so hard to practice before. Besides, even if he used a sword instead, he wouldn't know how to do it with a sword.
So it was best to have both. After a while, Ruian had a flash of inspiration and had an idea, which was to combine the stick and the sword.
Ruian used to use an epee. The epee was a little over one meter long, as wide as a palm, and weighed twenty or thirty kilograms.
The Yin stick used by Ruian was nearly two meters long. The diameter was later enlarged to be as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the weight reached forty or fifty kilograms.
If you simply connect the two together, the length of the connection will be more than three meters, which is definitely not possible. Therefore, both the stick and the epee must be shortened.
After carefully gesturing with his hands, Ruian decided to shorten the length of the epee to sixty or seventy centimeters, of which the blade was about fifty centimeters and the length of the iron rod was shortened to one meter.
Then make a threaded buckle on one end of the iron rod and the handle of the epee. As long as these two buckles are aligned and rotated, a very unique sword stick can be combined. The length of the sword stick when combined
He is about 1.5 meters tall and weighs 30 to 40 kilograms.
The other two pieces of equipment on Ryan's body, the iron toe cap and the small shield, are a bit useless, but having them on him is better than nothing.
After thinking about it some more, Ruian decided to make the sword stick first and then ask about going to school.
In this way, Ruian kept making sword sticks while working on his daily work. It lasted for eight or nine days before a brand new sword stick was completely completed.
This sword stick is not made of ordinary iron material, but is made of the hardest stone and steel that Father Moya has on hand. This also cost Ruian two gold coins.
But it was worth the money. Ruian used the newly made sword stick to chop the Yin stick that had been cut off before. After five strokes, he cut off the Yin stick as thick as a bowl. You know, Ruian doesn't know how to do it.
For the fighting spirit, he purely used his physical strength to chop it, and it was cut off in just five strokes. This shows how sharp the sword stick is. If the sword stick is full of fighting spirit, it will be even sharper.
Ruian was very satisfied with this sword stick, but another problem arose, that is, the original stick method no longer applied to this sword stick.
When performing the original stick technique, it was necessary to rotate the stick body from time to time and switch to the other end of the stick to attack. But now that the sword stick is used, these moves cannot be used. Therefore, Ruian still needs to improve the stick technique and change it to be suitable for sword sticks.
stick method.
In the next few days, Ruian kept thinking and trying new stick techniques. He abandoned the original stick technique that required rotating the stick body, and considering that the sword stick was very similar to a machete, he designed a total of 26 new stick techniques.
Stick technique, or it can be said to be a hodgepodge that combines stick technique, sword technique, and knife technique.
The new stick technique made Ruian very excited. It made Ruian feel that his strength had been upgraded to a higher level, and his attack power had undergone earth-shaking changes, from the previous level of wounding to the current level of killing.
At this time, almost half a month has passed since Ruian was eliminated from the mercenary competition, and the mercenary competition ended just yesterday.
In the end, a level 6 swordsman won the championship of this mercenary competition.
This mercenary competition has come to an end.
Just yesterday after the mercenary competition ended, almost half of the people left Kata City. Today, almost all the people who came to watch the game have left Kata City. Only some people are left to do business.
The merchants are clearing out their goods and will probably leave Kata City as soon as they finish clearing out their goods.
In an instant, the city of Kata turned from noisy to desolate, with only the mess all over the city proving its recent prosperity.
As for the original residents of Kata City, they have also begun to return to their original peaceful lives, and it will soon be as if the mercenary competition had never been held.
On this day, as the mercenary competition had just ended, Ryan also ended his life of seclusion. He walked out of the blacksmith shop, wanting to get some air and see where he could ask questions about how to go to the academy.
The cautious Ryan put on his coat and dressed up a little before going out, so as not to be recognized by some people who had seen Ryan play and disliked him, thus causing trouble.
