Night time.
The Blacksmith Shop with only a curtain remaining emitted hammering sounds as Ye Feng stood before the furnace, continuing to forge his stage three wood attribute weapon.
Suddenly, there was a huge gust of wind as Ye Feng’s expression froze, he raised the hammer in his hand and heard a loud ‘clank’ sound, Ye Feng was forced to move back by several meters.
This was an expert who came, he was at least a medial-class Intermediate Knight in strength!
“I thought you would be someone formidable.”
The guard captain swung the silvery white sword in his hand again, Ye Feng quickly blocked the attack but his hammer was sent flying by the sword.
Ye Feng realized deeply that this opponent was very strong, he did not hesitate to use the fire and lightning elements that he had.
But the guard captain did not give Ye Feng this chance, a white light suddenly gathered in his hand and slammed down on Ye Feng’s hand, causing him to be knocked back.
Ye Feng crashed onto a table as he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
This tiny Blacksmith Shop could not allow Ye Feng to use his true strength.
“This is all you can do?” The person looked at Ye Feng with a cold smile on his face.
While speaking, the sword in his hand did not stop moving, it slashed down at Ye Feng again.
Undeniably, if this hit landed on Ye Feng, it would be a disastrous outcome.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared before Ye Feng, this person had an intensely pure and sacred aura, he had a sword that was even longer than his height, forcing the guard captain back with one move!
“I heard that the City Lord is making a move on you, to think that they will send out an Intermediate Knight, this is quite something!”
“Eric!”
Ye Feng was overjoyed, the reason Eric was willing to save him was definitely because of Avril, but it was also a form of recognition from Eric.
Eric saw through Ye Feng’s thoughts immediately: “Don’t misunderstand, Nyzo told me that you have the potential to be a Magician, you have barely qualified to be a part of our family, also… I need those twenty stage two weapons badly, so you cannot die.” 3
After that, Eric ignored Ye Feng and looked at the guard captain coldly: “Has the City Lord Manor fallen to this level, you are trying to bully a blacksmith kid to feel superiority? Superior-class Intermediate Knight, Munack!”
The guard captain whose name was Munack smiled darkly: “Eric, since you know it is the grand City Lord Manor’s order, you still dare to obstruct me? Don’t you know that Osla and Apal are preying on you, you still dare to oppose the City Lord Manor?”
“Bam!”
“You speak too much.”
The long and thin silver sword immediately drew a red line of blood on Munack’s neck, this superior-class Intermediate Knight was unable to even take one attack from the Advanced Knight!
“Uncle Eric, thank you.”
“No need for that, remember you have three days left.” 1
Eric only glanced at Ye Feng as his armor shook and he vanished on the spot.
Strength!
Ye Feng clenched his fists, he felt that he was still too weak, the Advanced Knight Eric was like a huge mountain standing in front of him, the only thing he could do now was to continue forging and get stronger! 1
Ye Feng had a firm expression, he lit the furnace again and held his hammer to start forging by shaping the mold. 1
This time, it was very successful, he finished the final hit on the Knight’s Dagger, there was a trace of joy on his face as he took out the hundred years iron wood, enchanting it according to the method in his mind!
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for forging a stage three middle-grade [Nature Dagger].” 1
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 100 wood elemental points and an increase in physical recovery ability!” 1
[Nature Dagger]
Grade: Stage Three Middle-grade
Attack Power: 1580
Durability: 110
Special Trait: When in combat, there will be a chance of recovering from injuries and regaining stamina.
Next, Ye Feng took a look at his physical condition, the fire elements and lightning elements continued to move around while enveloped in wood elements.
Because of the vitality that the wood elements gave him, Ye Feng who had been forging for a day and night felt his fatigue going away.
At the same time, Donjedo had already received Munack’s corpse who was sent back to the City Lord Manor, there was no expression on his face, he only came to the corpse and started inspecting it.
Finally, at Munack’s neck, he found a tiny wound, this type of fatal attack that could take the life of a superior-class Intermediate Knight so subtly could only be unleashed by that Advanced Knight Eric!
“Eric, well done, it seems that Osla and Apal are not giving you enough pressure, you dare to provoke the City Lord Manor because of a kid from a tiny Blacksmith Shop. I swear to the Glory of the Sacred Knights, I will make sure all of you die without a proper corpse!” 4
Donjedo’s ruthless expression was shown all over his face.
Next, he summoned two subordinates and instructed sinisterly: “Go and find Osla and Apal in secret, tell them that if they want to devour Eric’s forces, come to the City Lord Manor!”
The two subordinates acknowledged the order and left.
Right after his subordinates left, in the demon beast forest behind Osborne City, there was a loud growl!
This growl of the beast was like a rock that entered a tranquil lake, it created huge ripples in the quiet night of Osborne City!
Donjedo flustered immediately, there were many fierce and powerful demon beasts in the forest behind Osborne City, at the most inner core of the forest, there was a fierce demon beast that had never shown itself, it was said to have superior-class Advanced Knight strength, if it was enraged, it could even injure Bronze Knights… 1
A demon beast that could emit such a growl could only be the king of the demon beasts within the forest!
“Check, go and check it, we must be prepared against this, don’t let the beast tide gather!”
…
And at this time, inside the demon beast forest, there was a thin and long shadow, carrying a demon beast egg that was the size of a head, sprinting rapidly in the forest with countless demon beasts growling in a frenzy, chasing after the shadow.
The reason was clearly because of the demon beast egg in the shadow’s hands! 2
…
Inside Osborne City.
Ye Feng looked at the Nature Dagger in his hand and showed a smile of satisfaction.
But at the next moment, he heard a loud growl.
Demon beast!
At the first instant, Ye Feng recognized what it was.
Immediately, he kept away the Nature Dagger and his figure vanished from the Blacksmith Shop.
Not long after, at the fringe of Osborne City, Ye Feng looked at the attacking demon beasts as brilliance flashed across his eyes.
This was a great chance for him, he could train his combat abilities while also hunting demon cores! 2
Of course, Ye Feng was not in a rush, if he charged into the tide of demon beasts now, it would be a suicidal move, once the group that would resist the demon beasts gather, he could charge in along with them.
