Just when the rumor that the president of the Charan Chamber of Commerce, Charan Velos, and the Guardian Dragon of Minas Tirith, Levis, had appeared together in the Temple of the God of Love and Beauty, began to spread widely in various circles in the City of Water, a ship from Silver Moon

The three-masted merchant ship that departed from the city slowly drifted down the Sebring River.

It is the Sword that has been circulated by John's Chamber of Commerce for decades. It has always been the most beloved ship of its founder, Old John.

Now that old John has passed away, its captain has become Alyssa in name, even though she has steered this old ship many times.

In fact, as a good omen, ship names like the Sword have long been popular along the coast of the Sword Coast in the North.

It's just that these captains, who generally don't have much higher education, still enjoy it.

You can't just follow the example of those nobles who call all their boats princesses!

Moreover, in their impression, the merchant ship named Princess has a much higher probability of being robbed at sea than other ships.

They’re all called princesses? Who are you going to grab if you don’t?

The Sword stopped for more than half an hour as it passed Minas Tirith, and under the personal supervision of the captain Alyssa, a large number of gnolls who had been waiting at the port carried boxes of packed heavy cargo aboard.

Boat.

After loading this batch of cargo, the crew clearly felt that the waterline of the ship was sinking severely, almost reaching the displacement limit of the merchant ship.

Some crew members couldn't help but muttered in confusion:

"What is this cargo carrying? It's so heavy... This is already the ship with the largest cargo capacity in our chamber of commerce, right?"

"It doesn't matter what it contains! Even if it is loaded with gold, it won't give us an extra copper thumb salary." Another crew member laughed and mocked.

"That's right, never mind it!" The crew member couldn't help scratching the back of his head and showing an honest smile.

"What a foolish mortal."

Felix, the leader of the Jingo Adventure Group who has long-term cooperation with the John Chamber of Commerce, sneered at their remarks.

He looked at the cargo boxes that were almost filling the warehouse, and murmured with slightly solemn eyes:

"Such a heavy cargo must be either ore or metal weapons and equipment. If it is the latter, the risk of this journey will be at least five times higher. And if the former is related to magic..."

But after thinking about it, he put all these things behind him, and instead returned his burning eyes to Alyssa's tempting back.

There is no way to make a living on the sea without risks. Even if he does encounter a pirate, Felix will not do it for a living.

As a high-level warrior up to level 12, even if he faced a shipload of pirates who jumped into gangs, he could kill them all and run away in panic, and he could also show off in front of Miss Alyssa.

Brave.

This is already the sixteenth year of cooperation between their Jin Ge Adventure Group and the John Chamber of Commerce, but the previous leader has always been his father.

And his father and Alyssa's father were family friends who had known each other for many years. They had always cooperated well before, and they had experienced many storms on the Sword Coast together.

When his father originally proposed that he join the Jin Ge Adventure Group, he refused.

He was a level 9 mid-level warrior back then. Where else could he have a better future than being an adventurer?

But it turns out that if you want to make money in the Silver Moon Federation, which has been at peace for forty-six years, it is better to be an adventurer.

Especially the maritime trade which has become increasingly prosperous in recent years.

In order to deal with the pirates who are also appearing more and more frequently, various chambers of commerce have offered enviable rewards to powerful adventurers, especially mages.

This is how Felix's father started his business.

However, high rewards also mean high risks.

Although some pirates adhere to the principle of "recyclable robbery", they will not continue to kill without reason after seizing a merchant ship by force. They will only let them leave or take them after plundering all their property and weapons.

in exchange for ransom.

But if you are unlucky and encounter those vicious pirates, they will often 'evaporate' together with the merchant ships.

If you are lucky enough to survive, you will most likely be sold to Calinshan, the largest slave trading center in the Western Continent of Corel, and then go through several rounds from there, becoming a plantation laborer, a gladiator, or a slave just for fun.

So Felix has always been resistant to this, until two years ago in the Silver Moon Knights, he really couldn't stand the seniority in the army and his pitiful, stupid boss who was obviously low in strength but was full of superiority in front of him.

When the other party was roundabout and ridiculing his family background in front of his colleagues, he used his fist to shut the other party up.

And he was expelled from the Knights of the Silver Moon, which had wasted him for at least eight years, for violating military discipline!

Also, in peaceful times, without the opportunities brought by military merit, why should he, a warrior from an adventurer family, compete with those guys from prominent families?

After many twists and turns, he finally came to his father's Jin Ge Adventure Group, became an ordinary adventurer, and boarded the Old John.

The passion in his heart that had cooled down as the knight's dream was shattered was instantly rekindled after seeing the red-haired female captain Alyssa.

That year.

He met his 'goddess'.

I also regained my dream.

His dream is to be the guardian knight of the ‘goddess’!

The only knight!

Once people have a dream, they can often unleash their astonishing potential.

In order to deal with various potential risks on the sea and possible pirate attacks, he used his limited literacy level to read many books on shipping. At the same time, he practiced swordsmanship hard. His professional level also increased from level 9 to mid-level warrior.

Today's level 12 high-level warrior.

Just yesterday, the day that old John passed away, his father, who was also gray-haired, resigned from the Jin Ge Adventure Group in frustration.

At the same time, many adventurers older than his father also resigned from their positions, and were replaced by younger generations like Felix.

Felix, who had already accumulated enough qualifications and was a high-level warrior, was naturally elected as the new leader of the Jin Ge Adventure Group.

Unfortunately, there is no corresponding way for him to change jobs.

To be precise, there is currently no career change path that satisfies him.

His father was a shield warrior, but he really didn't want to be a human shield that could only take beatings forever.

His original dream was to become a cursed swordsman.

This is what adventurers call the Magic Swordsman.

After all, what warrior wouldn’t want to be one of those magical and martial warriors in bard biographies?

And this profession does exist.

The Cursed Swordsman is a fantastic profession that combines magical power and weapon fighting skills.

While they are learning to cast arcane spells, they are also exercising their fighting abilities.

Gradually, cursed swordsmen learned how to reduce the failure rate of arcane spells while wearing armor.

In addition, they can use weapons to cast and store spells.

But the reality was to pour a basin of cold water on him.

After Alyssa conducted a Zelandian-style test on his talent, she looked at him with pity and said... With his intelligence level, there is a high probability that he will not be able to learn even the simplest arcane spell.

of.

And told him a cruel fact:

Most Cursed Swordsmen are part-time mages/fighters, sorcerers/fighters, or bards/fighters who also have a chance to become Cursed Swordsmen.

What they have in common is that almost all of them were originally mages, but they only worked part-time as warriors for various reasons...

And there are so many mages like this who work part-time as warriors in Zeelandia's battle magic group...

Most of them have a stronger body than some soldiers due to years of mining career.

However, they are not limited to Cursed Swordsmen. On the contrary, the professional branches of "Arcane Axeman", "Arcane Spearman", "Arcane Hammerman" and "Arcane Crossbowman" are more common.

There is even a chain sword in one hand and an arcane warhammer in one hand, and he is a wizard/cursed swordsman/exotic weapons master at the same time.

After being hit hard by reality, Felix decided to take Stormtrooper as his advanced profession.

This is also a rare but powerful profession. Its core lies in dual-wielding swords and finding a balance in the swirling obstacles composed of deadly swords.

Poets use dancer-like vocabulary to describe the Stormtrooper's movements and his twin blades, but mastering the art of combat has nothing to do with dance.

The Stormtrooper is dedicated to learning the ultimate secrets of two-weapon combat with one goal in mind: the destruction of his enemies.

Stormtroopers rarely learn their martial arts through any form of formal training.

Instead, they master their martial arts through constant trial training and trials on their enemies.

Likewise, no matter how famous the Stormtroopers become, they are rarely seen with apprentices.

They said: Their fighting art can only be learned, not taught.

Regarding the last rumor, Felix had never believed much. He thought it was just a way for the Stormtroopers to increase their own wealth.

Even the most mysterious arcana can be taught, let alone the martial arts of dual-wielding weapons.

However, he did not have a martial arts teacher, so he could only explore himself through a Stormtrooper Manual that he accidentally picked up from Alyssa's Black Cat Taobao store.

One advantage of being a merchant ship guard is that he can "legally" experiment on those pirates and gradually master his martial arts.

He had a feeling somewhere...
