บท 3: Understanding Adrian's Power

Adrian's eyes brighten, and his prediction is correct!

You can undoubtedly improve your skills by reading with the System panel!

And [Basic Navigation Skills] are the basic prerequisite skills for the profession of [Navigator]!

There is no reason why other skills cannot be learned through reading if navigation can.

Adrian first returned the "Basic Nautical Theory" to the bookshelf, then quickly walked aside, came to the book area where the knowledge of the sword technique was recorded, randomly pulled out a basic sword technique book, and began reading it carefully.

Only the rustle of books remained in the library as time passed quietly.

[You completed a self-study of basic sword technique knowledge by reading. Based on your intelligence, [Basic sword technique] learning progress is 7 percent.

[[Primary Sword Technique]] The learning progress is 14 percent...28 percent...49 percent...]

Ding dong, a new prompt appears on the panel.

[[Primary Sword Technique]] The progress is 100%, you have successfully acquired the fundamentals of swordsmanship, and the swordsman career will be unlocked! ]

[You've gotten a new job as a [swordsman apprentice], and the vigor is on! Strength +1, agility +1, 2 free attribute points, and 1 skill point have been added to the vigor value!

[You have learned new skills: [basic sword technique cultivation], [primary level sword technique affinity]!

A stream of heat was generated out of thin air and traveled all over his body while a lot of knowledge emerged in his mind. I'm not sure if it was an illusion. Adrian thought his head injuries had healed well.

Adrian is in a good mood after acquiring the [swordsman apprentice] occupation, as well as 2 free attribute points and 1 skill point (which can be used to improve skill rank and quickly learn skills).

Adrian just took back the book "Basic Navigation Theory" while it was still early, comprehended the new skill [Basic Navigation Skills], and unlocked the new Secondary Profession [Navigator] by the way.

[You get a new job-[Navigator], your vigor will increase, intelligence +1, charm +1, 2 free attribute points, and 1 skill point will be added! ]

Simultaneously, the personal panel reported corresponding changes.

Adrian casually looked for it from the training ground after leaving the library. He returned home alone after practicing with a wooden knife.

[Basic sword technique cultivation] has taught Adrian a great deal about sword technique cultivation. Even if he has no prior sword-swinging experience or Sensei instruction, he can complete the sword technique cultivation on his own.

Adrian stood in the center of the room, holding the wooden knife handle with both hands and closing his eyes lightly. The knowledge of sword technique cultivation slowly flowed through his mind, and the skill panel was on the [basic sword technique cultivation]. The text icon has a slight glow to it.

Squeeze your thoughts, raise your arms, and swing your knife.

The wooden blade slashed through the air, making a soft rustle sound.

[You completed a sword technique cultivation (basic), with a completion rate of 56% and a total of 28 experience points.]

Make a slight adjustment to the angle, raise your arm, and swing the knife.

[You finished a sword technique cultivation (foundation) with 67 percent completion and 33 experience points.]

[You finished a sword technique cultivation (foundation), completed it at 80%, and gained 40 experience points]

Adrian soon finished the last swing of the knife, bringing his total experience to 200 points.

"Give the [swordsman apprentice] EXP!"

A familiar heat flow was produced, and a pleasant prompt was heard in my head.

[[Swordsman Apprentice]] Level up to LV2, and your vigor value will increase, as well as your strength and agility. You will also receive two free attribute points and one skill point.

This is the plug-formidable in's power!

Adrian's uncontrollable laughter nearly shattered the door.

...

Three days later, in the early hours of the morning.

Adrian, who had planned ahead of time, took the practice wooden knife to a closed training field in the training base's northeast corner.

Except for a few familiar faces of children, Kumadori Yamanbako stood in the front of the crowd, quietly waiting for the crowd to gather.

When Kumadori Yamanbako heard the sound of someone approaching, he looked in the direction of the sound, just in time to see Adrian.

"Huh? What is the name of this brat?"

The pace is steady, the eyes are bright, and I don't recall the night's weakness and confusion three days ago. It's also a far cry from the drab and reserved image of a long time ago. Far.

"Was there anything that happened to him during this time? Is it because he just went through a harrowing life-or-death trial?"

Kumadori Yamanbako has a quick question. I stepped in.

Adrian caught Kumadori Yamanbako's gaze, turned to this side, nodded slightly, and said, "Good morning, Ms. Instructor."

He has already completed a long-term development program in this training base. It is unquestionably the best way to establish good working relationships with your immediate superiors ahead of time.

And as long as you don't speak, Kumadori Yamanbako remains a lovely lady.

Adrian died with a twinge of regret in his heart.

I can't see anything! What a breakneck speed! I'm not sure if it's Rokushiki. Shaving...

Adrian was stunned, but he responded calmly: "No, Instructor Kumadori."

She appears to be on to something. I'm changing!

Adrian successfully accumulated nearly 150,000 experience after swinging the knife over a thousand times per day for three days. He didn't put all of his experience into upgrading right away because it was too obvious, and it was very easy to expose problems that way.

Fortunately, unlocking two careers in quick succession, as well as upgrades, has greatly increased Adrian's attributes, with the power master attribute nearly doubling!

I must be more cautious! I must not let people know about my situation until I have mastered the fundamentals of self-defense!

Adrian secretly read in his heart.

"Really?" Kumadori Yamanbako's eyes narrowed and he stopped asking.

"From today, Adrian resumes daily training," she said as she turned her head to face the children who were about to gather.

"This weekend, we will continue to carry out wild beast hunting missions in the [Safety Sector], and hope that there will be no more unexpected situations next time," she said.

The very worst part is Kumadori Yamanbako's final sentence.

"If someone really wants to die, it's better to die simply," I said coldly as I noticed her staring straight at Adrian.

Adrian slandered himself on the inside.

What lovely skin, but it's a shame I opened my mouth wider.
