Chapter 2 Nightmare Knight
The soul fragments in the air are gradually dissipating.
If you are a necromancer, you can extract a lot of 'memories' from these fragments.
Hardy didn't feel even a little bit of a pity. The other party's 'useful' memories must have been squeezed out by him in the past few days. After all, even the most important heirloom of the Hardy family had been transferred by memory just now.' Told him.
The remaining memories of the original body are probably various techniques on how to 'lick' Karina.
What's the use of those things!
Induces vomiting?
He shook his head, walked to the bookshelf next to the bedroom, found three books of different colors, and arranged them according to the 'memories' he had just obtained.
After a while, the bookshelf automatically moved sideways to the left, revealing the wall behind it, and a round magic circle was glowing.
Soon the wall disappeared, and a spiral downward staircase appeared behind it.
Hardy took an oil lamp from the cabinet, lit it and walked in.
Going down the stairs, it didn't take long to reach the end.
Hardy raised the oil lamp, used the light to see the scene in front of him clearly, and chuckled.
Piles of gold and gems were mixed together, and on top of the pile of treasures was a dark saddle.
It was so dark that it seemed to absorb all the surrounding light.
"Nightmare Knight!"
This thing is the reason why Hardy thinks the original body is useless.
The first-level magician, the second-level animal husbandry, the third-level druid and the fourth-level magic!
This is a joke among players, ranking which professions are stronger.
However, for some professions, players cannot change professions and can only be employed by NPCs. These special professions are not included in the rankings because they are not 'universal'.
For example, the brave bloodline of the Lane family, the paladin of the goddess of light, the unicorn summoner of the elves, etc.!
They are all special and powerful professions that are no less powerful than the Master, and they do not require sufficient 'intelligence' like the Master.
Nightmare Knight, is also in this category.
He obviously has a strong bloodline, and his family has helped prepare even the tools for job transfer, but the original person is unwilling to work hard or exercise.
Surrounded by Karina all day long.
As a result, he lacked mental strength and was unable to use the Fear Saddle, so he changed his profession into a powerful Nightmare Knight.
In comparison, Ryan is much more sensible.
He would exercise for at least three hours a day before thinking about playing with Karina.
Any woman who is not that stupid can see that Ryan has more future and is more suitable to be a husband.
Hardy stepped forward holding an oil lamp, bit his finger, and dripped blood onto the black saddle.
As soon as the drop of blood hit the saddle, it was absorbed.
Then the saddle absorbed the surrounding light, forming a small black ball, and finally submerged into Hardy's body.
Pain, hunger, itching, and many 'hallucinations' followed.
But Hardy held it back and stood quietly without making a sound.
After experiencing some weird physiological reactions, Hardy breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had successfully integrated the job-changing items.
Raise your right hand high and squeeze it tightly.
Huge darkness surged from around him, surrounding him like a tangible thing, spinning and transforming.
Soon, a huge Nightmare Knight appeared in the basement, more than three meters tall, and a person's head almost hit the ceiling.
Black horses, black armor... Only the eyes of the man and the horse showed a sharp red light.
Seems extremely evil.
Hardy's mental state at this time was a bit strange. He was wrapped in an armor formed by dark energy, and he felt like he wanted to kill someone, but he was quickly restrained.
The protective performance of the helmet is very good. There are only two small holes for the eyes to look out. Logically, the field of view will be limited, just like seeing things through a telescope, and the field of view is very small.
But... Hardy found that his vision was almost the same as normal without wearing a helmet.
In other words, this armor formed by dark energy is not a real object, but a 'rule'.
It will not cause any negative effects or burdens on 'users'. As for the 'horse' Hardy was riding, it was a 'nightmare'.
Nightmare is essentially a horse, but it is a very special kind of war horse. It comes from the devil world and is a fantasy-level magical creature. It is powerful and has an extremely violent personality. It only obeys its own knight.
This is the origin of the term 'Nightmare Knight'.
Hardy used his 'thought' to control the war horse to pace in the basement, walking very steadily. Gradually, a desire to 'run' was transmitted from the nightmare.
So intense.
Hardy had no choice but to pat Nightmare's neck gently with his hand and comfort it: "Don't worry, you will have a chance soon, be good."
Nightmare's consciousness calmed down and he snorted, seeming to like Hardy's. Sound of Soul'.
After walking for a while, he experienced the feeling of riding a horse. Originally, Hardy wanted to ride for a longer time, but he soon felt 'tired'.
The original body had almost no exercise and was very weak. His ability to transform into a Nightmare Knight was all due to the extremely strong strength of Hardy's soul.
But there are still shortcomings, his magic power is pitiful.
After releasing the 'Ride Summon' mode and sending the nightmare back to the demon world, Hardy sat down and panted hard.
The sequelae of empty magic power are much stronger than what he had in the game.
A large number of gold coins and gems were piled up, shining charmingly in the dim light. Hardy grabbed a handful and then threw them down.
"With so much wealth, I dare not say that he is the richest man in France, but at least he is among the top." Hardy sneered: "And with a good bloodline profession, there is no problem in starting Tianhu."
" However, there are only legends about the brave Ryan and the holy girl Karina in the game, but there is nothing about Hardy, which is really bad."
After muttering to himself twice, Hardy stood up, left the secret room, and restored the secret passage. He rang the golden bell on the table.
After a while, the red-haired maid opened the door and came in. She bowed slightly and asked, "Master, what are your orders?"
"Where is the old butler Jack? I don't seem to have seen him in the manor."
"Jack should have gone to visit. Check the blacksmith shop."
Hardy remembered that this was indeed the case in his original memory.
Because of low wages and some special reasons, the craftsmen and apprentices in the blacksmith shop seem to be on strike.
Hardy thought for a while and said: "You ask someone to go to the blacksmith shop, call Jack back, and tell me that I have other plans." The
red-haired maid nodded, and when she was about to go out, Hardy suddenly asked: "Lily Ann, how many years have you been in our home?”
"Seven years."
"How much is your monthly salary now?"
"One silver coin."
"Then increase to two silver coins."
The red-haired maid Lillian's beautiful face was full of surprise. She hesitated for a while, She asked cautiously: "Master, are you planning to fire me?"
"Why do you think so?"
The red-haired maid said nothing, with a little fear in her brown pupils.
It seems that the original person was very unpopular before!
Hardy didn't say anything, just waved his hand to let Lilian leave.
In essence, Hardy and Lillian are related.
She is the daughter of Hardy's uncle's cousin.
In this world, in this era, nobles and big families control all the 'resources' and channels, leaving almost no room for ordinary people to intervene.
Even as the head maid of a noble family, the position must be given to a distant relative by blood, and children from poor families are not allowed to take the role.
"'Father' is nowhere to be found. It is likely that the worst is at hand. The family's property is in internal strife." Hardy held his chin, nodded lightly on the table with his fingers, and subconsciously said to himself: "There are internal and external troubles, and no one is targeting the Hardy family. Weird...how to break the situation?"
