Warm Dragon

At night, Xiao Menglong still did not appear, but Russell already knew that it would take three days to rest after spitting out a dragon flame, so he was not in a hurry.

Early in the morning, after Eric came over, Russell officially started the daily knight morning class.

"I have neglected it for several days in a row, which is really wrong." Picking up the fine steel long sword, he swung the sword and stabbed as usual.

Feeling the fighting spirit being pulled by the sword moves, and the meridians in his arms being opened up bit by bit, he couldn't help but sigh: "Diligence can make up for shortcomings. I must not rely on the benefits brought by the sword butterfly to neglect my daily training."

On the contrary.

After getting the sword butterfly, you should practice harder. Only in this way can you maximize the benefits of the sword butterfly and realize your ideal of taking off as soon as possible.

Seeing Russell resume his previous persistence, Eric was very comforted. Russell didn't even do the knight morning class these two days, which really distressed him. He was afraid that Russell would slack off and stay in the small manor for the rest of his life.

"My lord still has a long-term goal!" He nodded silently.

Then he thought passionately: "As long as you are willing to work hard, with your current momentum, you will definitely be able to make a name for yourself... By then, I may be granted the title of Lord by you and join the ranks of the nobility!"

Noble!

Even if it is only the lowest lifetime title, it is a huge leap in life, a transformation like a fish leaping over the dragon gate.

A poor family like Charles, whose ancestors were lords and lords, has long fallen into decline over the generations, but can still rely on the protection of his ancestors to become a tutor for the second son of the baron.

This shows how great and far-reaching the influence of the nobility is.

Eric dreams of becoming a noble, not only for his own glory, but also for the future of his two children. Even if his children have no prospects, they can live an upper-class life with his protection.

What if his children are promising and can continue to work hard.

After a few generations, the family may not be able to fight for a real, hereditary baronial title.

This is the case with the Fluorescent Mushroom Family, and with many earl and baron families in the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame—except for the Swan Baron, who was a baron from the Shadow Flame Family. He was born a noble and could inherit the title without any effort.

Swish!

The fine steel sword passed through the air, making a crisp and sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Eric took another look and felt that his attainments in the "Shining Sword Technique" were really far behind Russell, and there was really nothing he could teach Russell. Only then did he turn around and instruct Tom, Jack and other knights and followers.

After a circle of instructions, the knights and followers practiced seriously.

He also began to cooperate with Kevin, the golden and silver wolfhound, to practice exclusively for the fantasy beast knight, fighting spirit and sword control.

With the help of the new fighting spirit that has been integrated into the Yuanxi, he does not use his hands, but only uses the external Yuanxi to control the weapon. Without the hands, it is indeed a bit difficult to control, but at the same time, the last restraint will be taken off.

Under the control of Yuanxi, the fine steel sword can perform any kind of moves without dead angles, ever-changing and all-encompassing.

But at this moment, Eric's body kept twisting, and the fine steel sword was like a butterfly flying through flowers, surrounding him and constantly stabbing, chopping, slashing, twisting, slashing, and blocking, which gave him a feeling of flying fairies from the sky in martial arts novels.

In the intervals between Russell's practice, he occasionally glanced at Eric, and when he saw this scene, he was so envious that his saliva almost flowed out.

"Sword Immortal!"

"I want to be a Sword Immortal too!"

Unfortunately, he was not even a great knight. Even if he was given a fantasy beast, he could not contract and promote the fantasy beast knight, and then practice the gorgeous big move of fighting spirit and sword control.

So he could only shake his head, then collect his thoughts, and continue to practice a move in the boring "Yaoguang Sword Technique". While refining the sword moves, he was also digging the meridians.

Sweat soaked the training clothes without realizing it.

But Russell still persevered, regardless of the numbness and fatigue in his arms and body, just to hone every move and make it an instinct of the body. By then, not only will the meridians be opened, but the swordsmanship will also be perfect.

Combined with Jiandie's mastery and understanding of swordsmanship, he is confident that he can be invincible among his peers.

"How lonely it is to be invincible..."

A familiar BGM seemed to sound in his ears, and Russell finished today's knight morning class in the melody.

"Master, you have worked hard." Tom, the personal butler, quickly handed over a towel for Russell to wipe his sweat.

After wiping his sweat, he threw the towel back.

Russell looked at Eric, Kevin, and the four knights who were still practicing, and suddenly asked, "Tom, do you know what a concept god is?"

"Concept god?" Tom shook his head, "I don't know, sir."

"Concept god is... when you do something to the extreme, you can override the rules." Russell was in high spirits and joked casually, "My extreme is that the sword can cut off everything, including fate!"

Pinching his waist with one hand, he looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

If there is a third-person perspective, Russell feels that his demeanor at this moment is very proud of "my fate is determined by me, not by God."

Of course, it can also be seen as a second-year syndrome.

Just after taking a shower, the clerk Charles came with several officials to report to him on the recent affairs of the territory.

Russell listened carefully and gave some instructions from time to time, but he did not over-interpret. Although he had the experience of his previous life, it was his first time as a lord after all, and he might not be as good as the officials in the management of the manor.

The most taboo thing in everything is that laymen lead experts.

He understands this principle.

Finally, Technical Officer Red Nose Rudy reported: "Sir, we have analyzed the dandelion potion planting technology you brought from Fluorescent Castle, and plan to divide 150 acres of land in Lendou Village as a dandelion potion field..."

"It's feasible." Russell nodded.

"We unanimously recommend John, the escort officer, as the candidate for the Cordyceps escort team." Charles continued.

Russell had previously appointed John, his knight's retinue, to serve as the temporary Cordyceps Guard Captain, so the officials all understood that this position was created for John, and others should not have any unnecessary thoughts.

Russell nodded calmly: "It's feasible."

"There is one more thing, sir." Charles said again, "I am going to call all the serfs in the manor to provide the cats at home. If it is not enough, you may need to borrow some cats from the manor next door."

"What happened?" Russell didn't know why.

"Captain Druk, tell me." Charles said.

Ranger Druk was the chief of the Catacombs. He said with a grimace: "Master, there is a rat plague in the Catacombs..."

He gestured with his hands and said: "I don't know where so many big rats appeared from, one is as big as this... They are in groups, eating moss and mushrooms everywhere, and the food in Digutun is almost eaten by rats. Empty."

Ranger Captain Katie added: "In the past, the rats in the burrows were not enough for us to eat. Now there are so many rats that we can't stop killing them. Moreover, many serfs have been bitten by rats... The burrow rangers only You can guard the Wolf Head Patio to ensure that the Blood Fang Fungus Field is not invaded by rats."

"Rat plague?" Russell was really surprised.

The little food in Dikutun was not enough for people to eat, but there was still a rat plague. This also opened his eyes.

But now that the rat plague has become a reality, the top priority is to extinguish the rat plague. He immediately asked the knight knight to take his lord's seal to go to several manor houses next door to raise a group of cats to catch rats.

At the same time, I plan to go to Dikutun to take a look in person to see how rampant the rat plague is.
