Princeton in winter has a hint of quietness and beauty. The imperial capital that has been hustle and bustle for a whole year has ushered in its brief leisure.

Businessmen walking around the world returned home to accompany their wives and children, and residents of the imperial capital also hurried at home, cooking a pot of hot broth to celebrate the upcoming New Year.

There are fewer people on the streets, but the popularity of the entire imperial capital has not dropped much.

Princeton is located in the inner continent of the Omor Empire and is less affected by the monsoon. The vast hills to the west and the steep mountains to the south block the most violent cold winds.

At this time, the Baikal Group in the northeast also closed the last fishing flood of the year, bringing rich and delicious food to the dining tables of the people of the imperial capital.

Two months have passed since the last time he completed the task. In the past two months, Locke did not rush to receive any tasks, but An Anxin completely stabilized her state after breaking through at home.

After being promoted to a formal knight, there is no normal difference between low-level, middle-level, and high-level. One level is level one. The strength and weakness at the same level are based on the skills, armor, weapons, and experience and skills practiced by the knight.

An old knight who has been promoted to a first-level knight for decades will never underestimate a knight who has just been promoted to a first-level knight, and a knight who has just been promoted to a first-level knight will not underestimate himself. As long as the opponent is not a second-level knight, who is stronger or weaker, it still needs to be overcome.

In other words, if Locke wants to continue to improve his strength at the moment, it is no longer useful to cultivate and accumulate the total amount of fighting spirit. What he needs is to go out to see the world and understand the realm that formal knights occupies.

For first-level knights, ectopic training is the fastest way for them to improve their own strength. According to incomplete statistics, the number of formal knights owned by the Western islands is 120,000, and even the same amount of the Misia continent has at least 40,000 formal knights.

With a population base of billions, the generation rate of 40,000 first-level creatures is not low. Locke has grown up to this day and has traveled all over the country, leading the Missia continent, especially within the scope of the Omor Empire and the Kingdom of Forstan.

But he saw only a handful of strong men above level one. In addition to the factor that the Holy Tower and the Knights' Hall stipulated that the strong men above level one must not interfere with the growth and life of creatures below level one, there is also a main reason, that the first-level strong men on the three western islands tend to go out and go outside the plane.

If it weren't for the East Coast's suppression and hostility towards the Western islands, if it weren't for the West Coast, it would be a good choice to travel in this plane.

The huge tolerance and bearing capacity of this plane, as well as the complex rules, are enough for the little guys at level one and level two to explore for a lifetime.

The Wizard World is a top-level medium-sized world in the surrounding planes!

The wizard world with digital level six strong men and more level five and level four strong men has put heavy pressure on countless planes around it.

All the miniature plane natives who knew this powerful neighbor tried their best to hide their plane coordinates, and the powerful gravitational fluctuations of the lower planes themselves made them unable to hide, surrender or destroy. This is the main theme of plane war.

As for the intermediate plane, haha, the wizard world has destroyed three medium-sized worlds within the range that you can explore. Although everyone is in the intermediate plane, sometimes the gap between planes is even more desperate.

In order to avoid these opponents of the same level who may grow into threats and be disadvantageous to themselves, the wizard world can only start first, and the world war between the most recent intermediate planes is the most important.

It was 6,500 years ago, and it was so old that the first and second-level creatures at the bottom were unproven.

You should know that the founding history of the Omore Empire was only 2,800 years, while the Forstan Kingdom was even shorter, just 700 years.

"Apply for an ectopic mission?" In the courtyard of the home, Locke touched his chin and thought. He was planning for the future, and the official knight was not his end.

What made him unable to make up his mind was that the duration of any ectopic task started in three years, ranging from five to ten years.

It is not that the tasks the knights need to complete for so long, but that the energy crystal consumed for each space transmission is an astronomical number, especially the ectopic transmission.

Nowadays, the first-level powerful people in the Western islands are teleporting to various places through the portals of the Knights Hall and the Holy Tower, and come back together after completing the mission.

Only the second and third-level powerhouses with high value and rare numbers can be transferred directly through the teleportation array without any scruples and spend a lot of money without having to queue up with them at level one.

From three to five years, Locke was worried about his family. Family affection and love belonged to the wonderful memories of the life of those who had just been promoted to the first level.

A lifespan of more than two hundred years has caused first-class knights to look back and find that most of the relatives and lovers who have grown up with them have disappeared in the long river of history when they have completed half of their lives.

The first-level magicians are even more miserable. Their theoretical life span is more than 500 years. The magicians are known for their introverted and weird nature. This situation is caused by lack of family affection and love during their life journey.

Only after experiencing the pain of losing relatives and lovers can first-level knights strive to move forward, motivate themselves, and move towards higher levels.

The most intuitive evidence is that the peak period for the first-level knight to the second-level knight is between 120 and 180 years old.

Five years is really too long, and Locke plans to go to Santa to see Angelina, Grace and other women next summer.

Let’s put down the idea of ​​executing tasks on the different plane for the time being. Locke carefully counted it and found that there were two ways to improve his strength. One was to change the fighting qi technique. In the trading hall inside the Knight Hall, Locke knew several good techniques suitable for him.

The second is to update the equipment. This is a money-burning job. Weapons, armors, and secular blacksmith shops are not built. You must find special talents. It would be even better if you are the alchemist of the Holy Tower.

In fact, there is another half way, which is to learn a combat skill, but combat skill is the same as a unique martial arts. It has a strong bloodline and inheritance. The ones sold on the market are all bad things, and real good things will never flow out.

Instead of hoping to get a powerful combat skill, it is better to honestly hone your combat skills. The best one is suitable for you. Every formal knight is a fighting master and does not necessarily have to learn from others.

"Hey, go to the Knights Hall in a while." The more I thought about it, the less clues he became. Locke simply didn't want to.

At this time, Rafi's voice came, "Locke, let's go out for a walk tomorrow."

Tomorrow is the New Year, a festival that no matter which country, region, or people attach great importance to.

"Okay." Locke replied.

Accepting Rafi's plea, Rock followed her to browse the famous Waltz Street in the west town of Princeton for a day, buying some small and interesting things.

In Locke's impression, Lafite has always been a hardworking little maid. After becoming Locke's woman, the little girl has grown a lot. With the temperament of a silk hostess, Locke is happy to see this change.

Of course, the invitation from the beloved woman cannot be refused. Rock and Lafite are like an ordinary couple on the streets of Princeton, the imperial capital, watching at will in the direction of the crowd.

This New Year is the most comfortable time Rock has spent in recent years, and it would be great if Angelina and the others were there too.

After the New Year, Locke went to the Knights Hall.

This guy Sith is really miserable. He can't even go home during the Chinese New Year and is left to guard the branch hall.

After saying hello to the unlucky guy, Locke went to the area where the official knights were.

"Hey, brothers Rock!" As he passed through the rest area, a loud voice came, it was Hals.

Lock stopped and turned to look "Hals, haven't you gone home?"

"Go home? This is my home." Hals, who walked towards him, glanced at him. Although he looked like a middle-aged and strong man, he was actually twenty or thirty years older than Locke. He had a little less concept of home.

This is the common feature of the growth of magicians and knights.

"I want to learn a combat skill. Do you have any suggestions?" Locke said bluntly.

"Fighting skills, this thing is not easy to fix." Hals scratched his head.

The knight focuses on bloodlines, and the magician focuses on mastery. As the inventor, every newly created combat skills and magic will never be taught to anyone other than his own relatives and disciples.

The Knight Palace has been passed down for thousands of years, and excellent combat skills are absolutely present. Even if some combat skills are sold, the price it has to be paid is not something that ordinary people can accept.

"I believe you don't like those combat skills below level one," Hals said while thinking.

Locke nodded. Locke had been exposed to some of the combat skills in the Knight Servant stage during the Servant stage. Most of them gave him the feeling of flashyness, and some of them were indeed good combat skills, but they were not suitable for him to use.

After all, it is not tailor-made, and of course the inventor of combat skills is based on his own standards.

This also led to Locke not learning a combat skill before the official Knight, because those combat skills were useless to him, and it would be better to use the skills he had figured out for more than ten years.

"The two combat skills that have been hung in the trading hall recently are good. I can take them to see them. If they don't work, I can only try my luck in the commercial street." Hals said.

"Okay, then I'll go to the trading hall to check it out." Locke said.

"I'll be with you." Hals followed. Based on his years of experience in judging people, this knight named Locke must be a good person. It is absolutely right to deal with such people well.

Don’t think that formal knights are not short of money. With a higher platform and wider channels, the speed of spending money among formal knights is shocking.

High-level energy crystals used for cultivation, maintenance of weapons and equipment, necessary expenses for performing tasks, and recovery potion that can effect first-level creatures

Not to mention others, just talking about Hals, his life is very tight.
