Chapter 6 Rising Sun·Hongguang

the next day.

Lin Meng carefully reviewed the personnel information about the Sunrise Group in the Kingdom of Aden that Kailin had given him, then quickly dealt with his personal matters before re-entering the game.

"How is your injury?"

Lin Meng found Eileen on the training field.

He has now realized that this world is extraordinary, and he attaches great importance to Eileen, who can be considered his only core member.

"It's nothing serious, you'll be fine after some rest. Is there any mission?"

"It's a personal matter. I need you to help me investigate someone in Carol City, a newly promoted knight named Murphy."

Seeing that she didn't seem seriously injured, Lin Meng bluntly stated his request.

"Murphy?"

"Yes, investigate privately, without alerting others."

Lin Mengdao.

Although the Sunrise Group has only been operating in Aden for a few months and its foundation is still shallow, it has a Grand Knight and several other knights, which is equivalent to half a squad. This force is quite powerful to him. Unfortunately, the company has provided too little information, and there is information control on the Internet. Otherwise, he wouldn't be in the dark like this now.

"Alright, it shouldn't be hard to find a newly recruited knight in a place like Carol City."

Eileen nodded.

After returning from Eileen's place, the herbs he had commissioned Viscount Krupp to purchase the day before were also delivered.

These are the medicinal herbs needed to practice the Azure Flame Breathing Technique.

The Bell family's breathing technique, when practiced to its peak, can reach the pinnacle of knighthood, and with luck, there might even be a chance to break through to the Great Knight level. However, compared to the knight training method that Blue Flame and its parent company optimized based on thousands of knight training methods using a supercomputer, the two are simply not on the same level.

The Azure Flame Breathing Technique, combined with medication, can transform an ordinary person with an average attribute of 1 into a trainee knight with an attribute of 1.5 within three months, giving them initial combat capabilities.

This is also why the new employee period at the company is three months.

As for knights with attribute 2, mid-level knights with attribute 2.4, and high-level knights with attribute 2.7, the time required is much longer, often taking one to five years depending on the diligence and the value of the medicine.

Lin Meng has always had a good memory, which is why he was able to achieve success in history, a subject that required rote memorization. He mastered breathing techniques and swordsmanship in just three days, which would take most people a long time to learn. In his spare time, he would read the books he borrowed from Viscount Krupp and compare them with the information given to him by Blue Flame in order to better understand this world.

Under this kind of learning environment, half a month passed quickly.

"The effects of the breathing technique were very noticeable at the beginning of the training, and the first dose of the medicine was the most effective... After half a month, my strength and physique increased by 0.2, but my agility only increased by 0.1 because the data was too high."

Lin Meng glanced at his own attributes.

Power: 1.8

Agility: 2.9

Physical condition: 1.7

Spirit: 2.1

"As time goes by, the growth of attributes will slow down, and drugs will also develop resistance, but a month or two is still enough for me to become a true knight."

Lin Meng made a rough estimate.

This speed is astonishing.

It should be noted that on the continent of Constantine, even nobles with knightly lineages generally need to undergo ten to twenty years of rigorous training to become knights.

The later the stage, the more difficult it is to increase attributes. Raising an attribute from 1 for an ordinary person to 2.9 for a high-ranking knight is several times more difficult than raising an attribute from 1 to 2. Without external factors, a knight cannot cultivate to become a great knight with attribute 3 through his own efforts.

"Knights, Grand Knights, and then Wizards, but before becoming a formal Wizard, there is a Wizard Apprentice stage, which is further divided into several smaller stages: First Class, Second Class, and Third Class... If I remember correctly, Captain Ryan is a Grand Knight and a Second Class Wizard Apprentice."

As Lin Meng pondered, he practiced his swordsmanship to adapt to his growing strength.

At this moment, Eileen walked in: "I found the person you asked me to find. He lives in Rose Manor outside the city. However, this Murphy has a close relationship with Dillon, a mid-ranking knight under Marquis Heris, and the two are rarely apart."

"This is enough. You did a great job."

Lin Meng nodded.

Heris is the leader of the Sunrise Group in the Kingdom of Aden.

As the young master of the Sunrise Group, it is perfectly reasonable for Marquis Heris to send a knight to protect his safety in the wizarding world.

"A mid-level knight, huh...?"

Lin Meng squinted: "Blue Flame has Dillon's information, a mid-level knight who was promoted only a month ago, his agility attribute is at most 2.4..."

……

At night, the city of Carol was shrouded in darkness, with only a few buildings emitting scattered candlelight, and occasionally one or two manors relying on fluorite to emit light, illuminating a corner of the city.

However, those who can afford to use fluorite are usually nobles with status and position. As one of the properties of the Dillon Knights, Rose Manor is currently being stayed by the Dillon Knights, so they naturally do not mind the consumption of fluorite. The scorching light illuminates the manor, and the figures of servants can be seen moving around from time to time.

Dressed in all black, Lin Meng used his astonishing agility of 2.9 to silently infiltrate the manor, searching for his target.

"The Wizarding World doesn't allow you to reduce pain, and my 2.9 Dexterity will ensure my safe escape, so why shouldn't I do something about it?"

If you hold back for a moment, you'll only get angrier; if you back down, you'll only feel like you've lost out!

The wizarding world is not the real world, and the Sunrise Group cannot control everything.

With this thought in mind, he secretly arrived at the place that Dillon would inevitably pass on his way back to his room to rest, like a ghost hiding among the flowers.

Wait!

He waited quietly.

They kept their presence to a minimum, without making a sound.

Half an hour, an hour, an hour and a half...

Finally, after Lin Meng waited quietly for an hour and a half, Dillon appeared.

The mid-ranking knight yawned and walked towards his room without any suspicion.

This is the biggest difference between player-owned knights and native knights.

In addition to mastering the most advanced breathing techniques, player knights also possess the most exquisite swordsmanship. However, their combat strength is still slightly weaker than that of native knights. The reason for this is that they lack the kind of rigorous training that native knights have undergone for decades in a single sword technique or breathing method.

A direct confrontation won't reveal much, but a surprise attack could...

As Dillon passed by the flowers where Linmon was hiding, Linmon moved.

The short sword hidden in his sleeve flashed towards Dillon's heart.

Lin Meng maximized his agility advantage of 2.9 with this sword strike. It was originally a surprise attack, and with the cover of night, this sword strike...

It can be called the pinnacle.

"Who goes there!"

Dillon was startled by Lin Meng's sudden burst of speed, but it was too late for him to dodge. He could only slightly turn his body to avoid a fatal blow.

"laugh!"

Blood splattered.

A sharp pain shot through Dillon as the short sword in Lin Meng's hand pierced his chest, the blade cutting through his heart and emerging from his back, splattering with blood.

"what!"

Dillon let out a scream, the intense pain driving him mad. He clenched his left fist and slammed it down on Lin Meng.

Unfortunately, the sword that pierced his heart drained most of his strength, and the power of this punch was no longer enough to hurt Lin Meng. It only made Lin Meng take two steps back, while he staggered and fell to the ground, powerless.

"Dylon?"

A sound came from the neighboring yard.

Hongguang, who had just separated from Dilong, rushed over and witnessed Dilong collapsing.

"this……"

Hongguang turned pale when he saw Lin Meng holding a sword stained with blood in one hand.

Even though he knew it was just a game, the realism of the Wizarding World made him feel as if the air was thick with the scent of blood.

"Help! Help!"

Hongguang shouted, but he had no courage to fight Lin Meng and turned to run away.

Dillon, a mid-ranking knight, was assassinated by this vicious man. How much more so would a newly promoted knight who had risen through the ranks on drugs?

"escape!?"

Seeing Hongguang flee, Lin Meng's 2.9 agility advantage came into play, and he instantly caught up with Hongguang.

"don't want!"

Hongguang screamed and swung his sword to block.

but……

Useless.

Lin Meng's sword was like a streak of light, instantly piercing Hong Guang's waist.

"laugh!"

Blood splattered.

The utterly real pain caused Hongguang to let out a piercing scream and collapse to the ground.

Blood continued to flow, and the pain in his waist made him smell the scent of death.

"Who are you……"
