Lord Shenxiu-Chapter 513 Dragon Knight (Please Subscribe)

"It’s over..."

In the carriage, Zhong Shenxiu withdrew his gaze, looked at the three ordinary people who still knew nothing, and sighed inwardly. freewёbnoνel-com

"It seems... the cultivation systems of the East and West are quite different."

"Eastern Cultivators place emphasis on being well-rounded, especially Loose Cultivators; in other words, they can fight, defend, and support, and some even have the skills of Alchemy and Artifact Refining... Western professionals are different. Due to their vocations, their abilities are focused, and specialized training in the later stages makes these differences even more pronounced. For example, there are professionals specializing in healing, crafting, frontline combat, support, and so on... I don’t know about the higher levels, but this is generally it at the lower levels."

"A jack-of-all-trades is not as good as a master of one, but versatility can triumph over niche skills. If at the same level, a Cultivator and a Western extraordinary individual encountered each other in the wild, as long as there is enough time, the victor would be the Cultivator eight times out of ten... However, in team combat, especially with a small squad of five or six people, it feels like Cultivators would be at a disadvantage..."

"Of course, being well-versed in many areas doesn’t necessarily mean mediocrity, although most are quite mediocre. But if a genius like Zhang Taiyi comes along, who is knowledgeable and skilled in everything, then they would be terrifying!"

"Everything is fine now, everyone, quiet down!"

At that moment, an attendant came by and announced the news.

Inside the carriage, cheers and sighs of relief filled the air.

"Whew... It’s resolved, thankfully. I almost thought I was going to meet the Gatekeeper, and although we will return to His kingdom after death, I still hope it can be as late as possible," Kerry sighed.

"Extraordinary ones?"

It was then that Johan seemed to come back to his senses, asking, "What are those? I seem to have seen someone flying?"

"Extraordinary ones, professionals, individuals who possess mystical powers and have various abilities..."

Kerry explained briefly: "It’s not a secret, but it’s also not something that everyone knows."

"I’ve heard legends of heroes and dragons in my hometown, and I’ve seen a magician’s show, but I never thought... they actually exist," said Johan with a look of his worldview collapsing.

Zhong Shenxiu understood this very well.

Even in the East, only officials and great clans were aware of the matters of cultivation.

Country folk might have heard legends of Immortals, but they certainly didn’t know where to find one.

Without written records, over time, these tales would likely just become considered stories.

When one has never seen a Cultivator in their entire life, the matter of cultivation is no different from nonexistence to them.

"I want to know... I want to know more about the extraordinary, Mr. Kerry, please tell me!"

Johan looked earnestly at Kerry.

And there was a young lady who seemed a bit embarrassed as she said, "Mr. Kerry, my name is Lily. Regarding extraordinary individuals, I’ve only heard my parents mention them a few times, but not in-depth. I would also like to know..."

"In the scriptures of the Church, in the libraries of cities, none of these are secrets and can be easily accessed... Although they only offer a general introduction and do not include knowledge on how to begin..."

Kerry humbly spoke and then heard Johan’s embarrassed voice: "I... I am illiterate."

’Yes, I know you are illiterate, but that is no excuse for your ignorance.’

Kerry rolled his eyes inwardly, but seeing Lily’s expectant look, he couldn’t help but clear his throat: "Regarding the origin of the mystical, we learn from the Church’s scriptures that it is a grace bestowed by the deities... In ancient legends passed down through the ages, the creator made this world, His flesh and blood turned into land and ocean, His spirit became the four suns in the sky, and the three moons... I know you want to ask where is the other sun and moon in the sky, that’s another question..."

"From the creator’s flesh and blood, not only were heaven and earth and all things born, but also His eldest son—the Blood Origin God, or rather... the Old Gods, who were mad and tyrannical, ruling an entire Dark Era... They mated with various races and birthed a plethora of offspring, the origins of many monstrous races in our world..."

"After the Dark Era, the Old Gods abdicated, and the New Gods rose. They evolved from the creator’s spirit and belonged to a more rational aspect. They blessed us with the ancient words of grace, allowing us to utilize rituals, incantations, and various monster materials to ascend the specific chains to become extraordinary ones."

"That’s the origin of extraordinary ones as told in the scriptures of the Church," Kerry said.

But Zhong Shenxiu felt something was off.

’The abdication of the Old Gods is probably related to the fall of the Yan Han First Empire... Moreover, there were extraordinary individuals in the West back then; it’s not some gift from the New Gods, but religious propaganda, I understand...’

"Different... chains?"

Lily suddenly spoke up: "I seem to have heard of the start of a chain, it’s called... the 1st Sequence—’Soldier’?"

"Yes, it’s common to see such extraordinary individuals in the army..."

Kerry nodded: "Remember, what the gods have given us are the ancient words of grace, the tools to recognize and control the mystical. Many sequence chains were created by those who came later, of course, inspired by the divine."

He glanced at the eager Johan and Lily, and said calmly, "To become extraordinary, the first step is to acquire any knowledge of the 1st Sequence and then through training, meet the promotion requirements and then ’inaugurate’ through various means!"

"Be wary, as some sequence chains can lead directly to the doors of legend, even becoming a Demigod, while others are fractured, stopping at the 3rd Sequence or even the 2nd Sequence with no path forward... Truly mature and complete chains are secrets closely guarded by the Churches, the Demigod Families, and even True God Families."

"For example, Johan, if you wish to become extraordinary, you could join the Traveler Church or enlist in the military. Hmm, the Church is quite strict, so perhaps the military is your only option... If you perform well, you may be rewarded with the starting ’Soldier’ Sequence. And the ’Soldier’ path is very mature, at least reaching the 5th Sequence, ’Dragon Knight’! Take Major General Gale, for instance; he is a living legend!"

"Gale, that lucky fellow!"

Zhong Shenxiu didn’t betray his confusion, only adding a seemingly understanding comment – after all, as a traveler, one should know such a widely known figure.

"I don’t think of him as lucky. You must know that Major General Gale started from an ordinary civilian, joined the army, became an Ensign, a Major... it was all due to strength and struggle!"

Kerry responded, "Of course... when he was recently promoted to Major General, he was criticized by the Noble Council, claiming that according to the kingdom’s laws, a man without noble blood should not be a General! But fortunately, according to the latest research and proof by the Noble Council, Gale has one-sixteenth noble blood, so in the end, he was successfully granted the title by the King..."
