Wizard of All Souls

Inside Albert Castle.

Baron Leo led the way with a torch, and Will followed.

The two spiraled down the stairs.

The second floor, the first floor, and the negative first floor have already arrived at the underground warehouse, but the two still have no intention of stopping.

In a dark and damp corner of the basement on the first floor, there was a heavy rusted iron door on the ground.

"Will, are you ready?" Leo's voice was gloomy.

Will didn't answer.

All the answers are self-evident.

Baron Leo took a deep look at Will, then picked up the iron ring and pulled it up hard.

Clang——

The iron door laid flat on the ground was pulled open, revealing a dark and deep passage.

A gust of cold wind gushes from the depths of the tunnel.

With "huhu", it was like the wail of the dead.

There was a sweet smell of blood in the wind.

Will walked to the passage and looked down. There was only darkness in his eyes, and he seemed to see countless ghosts in the darkness.

"Let's go." Baron Leo held the torch and walked down immediately.

The weak light source of the torch illuminates the front and dispels the darkness.

Only by standing on the torch can you feel a little warmth.

Will hurried after him, putting his body around the torch.

"Da da da da..."

The footsteps of Will and Baron Leo spread far away, echoing in the darkness.

In the dark distance, what echoed the footsteps was a shrill scream.

The stairs down are not long.

After walking for less than ten seconds, the stairs in front of him turned, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

What appeared in front of Will was a straight passage with burning torches on both sides of the passage, and behind the torches were cages with iron bars.

Behind the cage, there are pale and desperate faces.

Death Row!

Everyone imprisoned here is mortal.

Some people have committed such a heinous crime that death is not a pity.

Some people, made serious mistakes and caused huge losses to the family.

And some people, it's just because they offended some people who shouldn't be offended.

This is the darkest and most desperate place in Albert Castle.

Baron Leo opened one of the cages and walked in

Inside, hung a pale human body.

With gray hair, wrinkled face, thin limbs, and frail body covered with welts, it looks like a poor old man who has been tortured, which makes people unbearable to look at.

The moment he saw the old man's face clearly, Will's mouth widened in surprise.

"Ah, butler Arnold?" Will exclaimed.

"Master?" The old man named Anuo opened his eyes weakly.

Will once had a maid, and a butler.

The personal maid is Trish.

And the personal butler is the butler Arnold in front of him.

Half a year ago, Will was informed by Baron Leo that the butler Arnold had gone home to retire.

Although Will was reluctant about this, he could only bless Butler Arnold.

After all, Butler Arnold is over sixty years old, and he is considered a long-lived old man in this world. It's time to go home and enjoy the happiness.

Unexpectedly, the housekeeper Arnold, who thought he had gone home to recuperate, was actually imprisoned in a death row cage.

"Master Will, help me, help me..." Arnold asked Will for help in a weak voice.

Will lowered his head, not knowing what to think.

"Arnuo, when you were the housekeeper, he was greedy for your money, collected beauties in your name in the countryside, and used them for his own enjoyment. You thought I didn't know? Because of your relationship, I have already given him a chance." Baron Leo looked cold.

Will clenched his right hand and blasted out.

Steward Arnold's chest sank suddenly, and a fist-sized hole appeared.

Butler Arnold vomited a mouthful of blood, his eyes were distracted, and his breath slowly disappeared.

Will and Baron Leo left the cell where Butler Arnold was held and came to another room.

The person held in this cell was a middle-aged man whom Will didn't know.

The middle-aged man was covered in blood, and his face was extremely hideous due to the torture of the torture equipment. When he saw Will and Baron Leo walking in, he immediately roared wildly, and tried to spit on Will and the others.

Baron Leo's face darkened, he rushed up and slapped you hard.

The opponent's face was suddenly deformed by Baron Leo, and his teeth were almost broken.

"Terry, who used to be a member of the guard, was kicked out of the guard because of his misconduct. After leaving the guard, Trey pretended to be our Albert family and forced taxes everywhere, forcing 3 people to death and causing ten The seven households fled the territory." As he spoke, Baron Leo slapped Trey several times.

The territory of Baron Leo is only a few hundred households.

Terai alone forced seventeen households away.

Will stepped forward and put his hand on Terry's head.

Make an effort.

click.

There was a broken sound from Trey's head, and Trey himself was instantly brain-dead.

Next, Baron Leo took Will to meet three more people.

Each of these three people deserved what they deserved, and they deserved more than death.

After Will killed them one by one, Will and Baron Leo returned to the first floor.

Baron Leo stared at Will with complicated eyes. Ever since he entered the death row, Will kept his head down without saying a word.

"Will, there is light and darkness in this world. This is the path you have to go through." Baron Leo looked at Will's eyes with relief and worry, "I'm very glad that you can take the initiative to ask me to understand these things. , go back and have a good rest today."

"Okay." Will said goodbye to Baron Leo and walked towards the bedroom.

Looking at Will going away, Baron Leo sighed.

"These things should have been taken slowly and handed over to you step by step. After today, I hope you can grow up." Baron Leo thought of the dead Delia again, "Unexpectedly, I still let Will You won't forgive me for going down this path, will you?"

Will went back to the room.

After killing five people, Will's eyes remained unchanged.

Because those five people deserve to die.

Of course, this is what Baron Leo deliberately did.

There are still many people detained in death row cages, and among them there must be many who were innocent and wronged, and many whose crimes did not warrant death.

Because he was afraid that Will would not be able to bear it, he carefully selected five that would not cause psychological burden.

The reason Will asked Baron Leo to go to the death row was to prepare for taking over the title in the future, and to get in touch with all aspects of the Albert family step by step, no matter the light or the dark.

In fact—

"Blue Spirit."

A translucent interface appeared in front of Will's eyes.

Source power: 37

Among the five people, four gave 7 points of source power, one gave 8 points of source power, plus the remaining 1 point from last time.

How to calculate the source power points?

With personal strength?

not like.

Soul quality?

not like.

vitality?

not like.

Will just thought about it for a while, and then stopped struggling.

"As long as you keep using it, you will figure it out one day." Will glanced at the skill bar on Lan Ling's interface, "The threat of the four-armed ghost ape has not disappeared. At this stage, strength is the most important thing."

In fact, no matter what stage, strength is the most important.

Will consumed 16 points of source power to upgrade the knight's breathing method to level 5.

Will closed his eyes, silently feeling the changes in his body.

After a long time, Will opened his eyes excitedly.

"Glorious Armor, Great Knight!"

Above the knight is the great knight.

After becoming a great knight, you can condense your vitality around the body surface, defend against attacks, and ignore ordinary bows and arrows.

Only at the level of a great knight can one be considered to have the strength of a one-man enemy army.

"The strengthening speed of the body is much faster. At this speed, even if I don't do any exercise, I can naturally become a great knight after a year."

"I don't know how powerful the knight breathing method will bring me after level 5?"

Will smiled and looked at the Lan Ling interface.

"Huh?"

The knight's breathing method turned gray, and the skill upgrade button behind it also disappeared.

Will pondered for a while.

"It should be that the knight breathing method I learned can only be practiced to this extent. After all, the blue spirit system only speeds up my cultivation speed, and cannot generate energy and knowledge out of thin air." Will guessed so.

As for whether this is the case, it can only be verified slowly in the future.

Now that the knight breathing method has been upgraded to the limit, Will's eyes turned to the other two skills.

Basic swordsmanship: Level 3.

Upgrade basic fencing: yes/no.

Will tapped twice on the yes option with his consciousness.

Consume 2 points of source power, and upgrade the basic swordsmanship to level 4.

Consume 3 points of source power, and upgrade the basic swordsmanship to level 5.

Will felt a thunderbolt flash in his mind, his eyes went dark, and his consciousness seemed to be locked in a dark cage.

The darkness gradually dissipated, and a figure appeared in front of Will's eyes.

A figure very similar to Will.

The figure began to practice swordsmanship, and Will could see clearly that that person was practicing basic swordsmanship.

Swordsmanship went from unfamiliar to proficient.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but looking at the figure practicing the sword, Will felt that his understanding of the sword was constantly improving, as if he was the one practicing the sword.

Footwork, bodywork, and swordsmanship gradually merged into one, turned into instinct, and merged into Will's body.

only--

"Basic swordsmanship at level 5 shouldn't be the only level." Will frowned.

At this time, the surrounding environment changed.

Enemies began to appear around the figure, including humans, beasts, and aliens.

The terrain of the battle is also constantly changing, sometimes it is flat ground, sometimes it is a steep slope, sometimes it is a puddle, and it is ever-changing.

Will realized something in his heart.

"The so-called swordsmanship is nothing more than the routine skills summed up when fighting and killing the enemy. Different enemies, different environments, and the use of swordsmanship will also change accordingly.

This is no longer an ordinary swordsmanship. In combat, one has to consider the number of enemies, the size of the enemy's weapons, one must know how to use the surrounding environment, and one must also know how to use psychological tactics. "

Swordsmanship is different from cultivation.

Will now has the cultivation base of a great knight, but his body needs time to grow and adapt.

But swordsmanship is different.

Yes, yes, no, no.

For a moment, Will returned to the familiar room.

"It turns out that this is swordsmanship." Will sighed.

Really brilliant swordsmanship, there are no routines or moves at all.

The moves are constantly changing depending on the enemy and the environment, and the routines are arranged while exploring the enemy's psychology.

"Next, it's time for archery." Will looked excitedly at the archery option.

Upgrade Basic Archery: Yes/No.

yes.

yes.
