Chapter 98: Breaking the Limit! (1)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the year 1009 of the Holy Brilliance Calendar, the end of the Month of Vitality, the Shining Auction that countless people had eagerly anticipated was about to begin tonight in the underground world of Icewind City.
In the Shining Tavern, nobles dressed in gorgeous clothes and masks entered one after another.
In the small hotel, Levi emerged from his state of cultivating breathing techniques.
“Harris,” Levi shouted.
Outside the window, a snow-white raptor swooped down from the horizon in a perfect arc toward Levi’s room.
This speed was comparable to the peregrines of his previous life.
Even Levi, who had Intermediate Speed, would not catch up.
After all, this was a diving speed comparable to a high-speed rail.
It took less than a second to cover a distance of 100 meters.
Levi had seen a speed-type grand knight before, and Pale Shadow was one of them. The speed at which he exploded almost formed a black line.
That speed was still not comparable to Harris’s diving speed.
This was the evolutionary advantage of birds that had perfectly combined their aero mechanics and gravity over thousands of years. It was incomparable to the flesh and blood bodies of knights.
Harris obediently ate the meat on Levi’s shoulder. Now, Levi’s Wild Heart could already communicate with Harris.
Every day, he would let Harris go to the skies of the Icewind City to take a look after it had eaten its fill.
From the information Harris had sent back, Levi knew many people in Icewind City today were here to attend the auction.
The Master mithril armor had not appeared in Icewind City for a long time.
“It starts tonight.”
“After this period of dormancy, I’m almost done with my cultivation.” “The next step is to wait for the prey to take the bait.”
[Siren Breathing Technique: Level 5 (1/30000), Special Effect: Intermediate Speed, Bone Shrinking Transformation.]
[Giant Rhinoceros Breathing Technique: Level 5 (Maximum, breakthrough available, current progress 2/3), Special Effect: Intermediate Strength.]
Levi had successfully upgraded the Azure Falcon breathing technique to level 5 and then fused it into the Siren Breathing Technique. After the Siren swallowed the Azure Falcon, it had successfully broken through its limit.
This meant that Levi could continue to gain experience in the Siren Breathing Technique. He would have advanced speed when the Siren Breathing Technique reached the sixth level.
The Giant Rhinoceros Breathing Technique also reached the fifth level during this period. As he expected, that was its limit.
He had fed the Raging Bull Breathing Technique and Giant Bear Breathing
Technique to the Giant Rhinoceros. Now, the progress bar of the Giant Rhinoceros Breathing Technique was only one point away from breaking the limit.
Strength-based breathing techniques were relatively common. It would not be long before the Giant Rhinoceros Breathing Technique broke through its limits.
At present, the Life Seeds lurking in Levi’s heart were the Giant Rhinoceros, Siren, Man-Faced Spider, and the Black Snake that was above them.
The other Life Seeds came and left in a hurry. Only the arrogant black snake looked down on everything.
When night fell, and he was fully prepared, Levi brought all the poisons, casting materials, hidden weapons, bows and arrows, and equipment. He touched the Frost Giant Armor under the Dragon Armor before heading to the Shining Tavern with relief. The grand knight should have arrived at the Icewind City if nothing had gone wrong.
In the auction hall of the Shining Tavern, the once sparse seats were now filled to the brim.
An armor that a Blacksmith Master had spent half a year to forge was a treasure that many knights and nobles dreamed of.
After all, in the eyes of a knight, a set of high-quality armor was more tempting than the most beautiful woman in the world and more delicious than the rarest delicacies.
The Sharktooth Knight thought so. As a grand Imight, he was assertive but not defensive.
Therefore, even he needed such armor.
This way, his weaknesses would reduce when he fought with experts of the same level.
The Earl of Silver Mountain had the same thought. In the VIP seats of the Sparkling Tavern, a man with beautiful silver hair and a silver mask was sitting there calmly, waiting for the auction to begin.
Although he wore a mask, that iconic silver hair and unparalleled temperament betrayed him.
“The Earl of Silver Mountain came personally? My God?”
The crowd whispered, “Oh my god, it is him. Such a big shot has come personally. The Earl of Silver Mountain seems determined to get it.”
They knew that when the Earl of Silver Mountain arrived, the ordinary nobles and knights would lose the right to auction the Leviathan Armor.
“Sigh, to live like the Golden Warhammer Master, this trip has been worthwhile.”
“Isn’t that so? The products forged are enough to entice the high and mighty earls and grand knights. Perhaps this is what a Blacksmith Master is like.” The crowd sighed as the auction began.
Levi did not wear the Golden Mask. Instead, he wore the White Wolf Mask and hid in the ordinary seats inconspicuously.
He fully activated his Intermediate Vibrosensing, and his gaze inadvertently swept across the scene.
Two figures caught Levi’s attention. One of them was naturally the famous Silver Mountain Knight, one of the Northern Seven Flying Cavalry and the ruler of this city.
The other figure wore an iron helmet and was covered in heavy armor. He looked like an ancient beast. He sat in a corner and looked at the stands silently. On his back was a broadsword. The edge of the broadsword was serrated like a shark’s tooth.
This iconic, unique weapon directly exposed his identity.
“That nameless grand knight, the Duke of Montenegro’s man!” Levi hid his anger and calmed down.
Now, he had successfully lured the enemy to Icewind City..
