The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

When Renne heard that he could exchange for ferocious beast meat like violent bear meat, he was happy at first, but after hearing the second half of Hamilton's words, he was stunned again, and immediately looked at him with a puzzled face.

Hamilton didn't give in and said directly: "Although violent beast meat is rare, if the amount you need is not too large, you can buy it in the county with gold coins."

"Many monster hunters specialize in this business. And if you don't mind spending a few more gold coins, you can always buy fresh, high-quality ferocious beast meat at the auction house in the county."

"So, regarding the merit points, my advice to you is to spend them on more valuable things."

"For example, you can use secret potions to enhance your strength, or you can choose to accumulate merit points to exchange for advanced potions that are necessary for subsequent promotion to a formal knight."

"If you want to buy advanced potions of excellent quality from the auction house, not only will the price be too high, but the main problem is that they are hard to come by."

"Your teacher should have told you about this. Different knight breathing methods require specific advanced potions to be promoted smoothly. The better the quality of similar potions, the better the effect of promotion will be."

Hamilton spoke a lot eloquently, but Lane listened carefully and barely missed a word.

Before Claire left, she didn't tell him anything about how to be promoted to an official knight.

Think about it too.

"After all, I am starting from scratch. From Claire's perspective, it is absolutely impossible for me to meet the promotion level within a year."

Lane keenly grasped several key points in Hamilton's words, such as 'gold coins buy animal meat', 'advanced potions', and 'the better the quality, the better the effect'.

At the same time, Renn once again recalled the scene when Claire talked about the 'advanced potion' last time.

At that time, Claire mentioned the 'advanced potion' to him once, but then avoided talking about it and just said that she should lay the foundation first.

"Maybe I'm worried that knowing too much will be bad."

"After all, practicing combat skills requires concentration to achieve the best results."

"However, it will take some time before the merit points are approved. As for the exchange, I have enough time to consider this issue."

So, Ren nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Hamilton, for the reminder. I will seriously consider it."

"Okay! Then you should leave as soon as possible. Willen and the others should be waiting for you at the door."

"Okay, sir!"

Although Rennes was a little surprised that he was about to set off, he had a hunch before arriving that Hamilton would have something to do with him, so it was not particularly unexpected.

When he reached the door of the administrative hall, Ren discovered that the elite night watchmen who were traveling with him all had one horse per person.

Although it looks far less powerful than the war horses in the manor's stables, it is at least a horse, which is enough for transportation.

The captain of the night watchman, Willen, has also prepared a horse for Ren.

"Ren, let's set off on horseback to Shimmer Lake now. It will take about two hours to reach the destination. After spending a few more hours to complete the task, we can return to Gold Town before dark."

"As for other things, we'll talk about it on the way."

Willen briefly explained the arrangement.

Renn nodded immediately.

No wonder Willen and the others prepared a horse.

The distance from Goldsmith Town to Shimmering Lake is a little further than to the county seat. If you walk on two legs, it will probably take half a day.

In that case, the task may not be completed even after dark.

The forest at night is a place where even knights don't want to stay.

For the people of the Night Watch, the best choice is to complete the task as soon as possible and then return to Goldsmith Town to rest.

"Okay, Captain Willen, let's set off now."

Before leaving, Renn also sent a message to his family.

But the embarrassing thing is that Ren has never learned how to ride, so after riding it, it was very wobbly and unstable. It took a long time to get used to it before it got better.

"Haha, Renn, after you join the Night Watch, riding a horse is a necessary skill. You have to take the time to learn it." Willen patted Renn's shoulder and smiled.

"South of Gold Town, John Moyle of John Racecourse, in addition to selling horses, also specializes in teaching riding. The tuition fee seems to be two gold coins. Renn, you can find some free time to learn."

"With horses, it will be much easier to perform many long-distance tasks."

"John Racecourse?" Renn thought thoughtfully.

At the same time, he also remembered that when he first learned the Giant Bear Breathing Technique, one of the requirements for triggering his job transfer to 'Knight Squire' was to master riding skills.

But what Ren is not sure about is that he has already transferred from militia to night watchman. Can he still transfer to knight squire?

But after thinking about it for a moment, Renn decided that he still had to find time to go to John's Racecourse to learn riding skills.

After all, having too many skills doesn’t weigh you down!

Two hours later.

Ren was carrying a two-handed sword and stood on a slope with a group of night watchmen, staring at the sparkling shimmering lake not far away.

The morning mist has not completely dissipated. The sun shines on the lake, shining a thin layer of golden light. It is surrounded by dark green forest. Such a beautiful picture makes Ren feel dazzled.

Just listen to Ren mutter to himself: "This should be called Jinguang Lake, why is it called Shimmering Lake?"

"Isn't it beautiful?" Willen looked at Renn's fascinated look and asked with a smile.

"More than just beautiful!" Ren said firmly.

"Then you haven't been to Shimmer Lake on summer nights, right? As for why it's called Shimmer Lake, that's because on summer nights, there are large numbers of fluorescent worms flying on the lake. At that time, Shimmer Lake was just It’s the most beautiful!” Willen explained.

"Is it a summer night? Then you must come and see it next time." Renn couldn't help but feel a little longing.

"Hey! Is that a fish man?" Ren, who was admiring the beautiful scenery, captured something keenly. He immediately reached out and pointed to the far end of Shimmer Lake and said.

Willen and other elite night watchmen immediately followed Ren's direction.

In the gradually dissipating mist, several monsters with a height of about 1.5 meters and fish heads and human bodies could be seen in the distance, wandering around the lake shore, as if they had discovered a new residence in surprise. It seems to be just looking for food.

“Really a fish man”

"Didn't you say that we have to walk a little further upstream along Shimmer Lake?"

"Have these fishmen spread to the Shimmer Lake area so quickly?"

"Fortunately we arrived in time this time!"

Seeing the scene in front of them, the night watchmen of Willen's team couldn't help but started discussing in various ways.

Although, the requirement of this mission is to drive away or eliminate this group of fishmen.

But Renne knows that the first choice is of course to eliminate it. In that case, there is no need to bother Hamilton to come back after recovering from injury.

"Captain Willen, how do we destroy these fishmen?"

Although in terms of combat effectiveness, Renn ranks first, the people of the Night Watch are experienced in other aspects, especially the captain Willen, who is by no means comparable to the fledgling Renn.

Therefore, in terms of tactical arrangements, Renne does not intend to make any suggestions.

In this regard, Willen obviously had a plan, and said with a smile: "Just shoot these few with bows and arrows. After finding the fishman camp, I plan to let this kid Mateo lure the fishmen."

Ren turned around to look. The night watchman named Mateo was only a little taller than Ren and shorter than most night watchmen. He also looked thinner, but he was very energetic and his eyes were transparent. With a burst of cleverness.
