Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method - Chapter 34: Level 4 Breathing Method, Special Effect: Defence

The snake-shaped mist danced around his heart like a dragon that circled over a castle.

The black smoke was completely connected to his heart, and as it pumped blood, it also pumped this mist through his system.

From then on, the energy obtained from food will be used to nurture this “seed” in his heart.

And the black mist emitted by this “seed” will circulate throughout his system.

Levi thought that this “seed” was like a new organ. An organ that could be controlled by him.

A weak stream of black mist crawled through his forearm, and he could feel his muscles tensing up.

His muscles began to harden in a short period of time. He traced over his arm and found that the texture was similar to that of a car tyre.

“My breathing method focuses on defence; this way, I can probably use my forearm to fend against my opponent…”

Levi tried to transfer this power to his palm, but the tenseness of his forearm was transferred to his hand instead.

This made Levi ecstatic.

When he tried to move this power to his chest, he failed.

With his current state, it seems that he could only move it to limited areas.

He needs to nurture this “seed” in his heart. Once this seed blooms, he could become like his father, shrouding himself in a layer of black mist.

After eating and drinking, he opened his proficiency panel.

Black Snake Breathing Method: Level 4 (1/20000), Special Effect: Defence

[Defence: By covering parts of your body with Black Qi, resist a certain degree of blunt attacks and reduce the damage of weapon attacks.]

Looking at the introduction of his panel, he decided to give it a good experiment.

Only by knowing your own strength can you fight better.

Since Knight Fred was absent, Levi came to the three bears.

The three bears were happily eating fish together.

“Snow, come here,” Levi beckoned. He knew Snow’s personality was the most stable compared to his brothers.

Snow immediately ran over and pounced on Levi, intending to give him a big hug.

Now that the bears were almost three years old, they stood three metres tall. Levi was like a dwarf in front of them.

Snow’s weight reached an astonishing 800 kilogrammes, which was already about the same as that of a large, brown bear.

The bears are also as strong as a Quasi-Knight.

“Haha! Okay, okay! Stop licking me!” Levi laughed as Snow continued lapping at him sloppily.

“Snow, use your claws to attack me,” Levi ordered.

Snow immediately backed off and whimpered. He didn’t understand why his master wanted him to attack him.

“It’s okay,” Levi comforted. “Hit me with all you’ve got.”

Levi patted Snow to encourage him, and Grey and Fatty came to join the show as well.

Finally, Snow mustered up enough courage and was in a combat stance.

Levi was shirtless. He didn’t even bother putting on a single piece of armour.

With a single nod, Snow immediately dashed forward, lifting up a single paw to slash at Levi.

Levi’s eyes widened as Snow approached him rapidly, and the seeds in his heart immediately sent black mist to Levi’s palms.

Levi immediately lifted up his palm to block Snow’s blow, and he was flung upside down by the impact.

“Eugh!”

Levi landed face-first on the ground and immediately inspected his rubbery palm. The black mist formed a protective film on his arm, and the evident scratches of a bear’s paw could be seen, but Levi himself was not hurt.

“Nice! Hit me again!”

Levi continued to spar with Snow; Grey and Fatty cheered for their brother, and Levi would laugh as he fought with his pet.

Soon, Snow was out of breath, slumped on the ground, and gasping for air.

Although Levi was a little tired, he could still fight.

The scratches on the black mist film on his palm could be repaired simply by replenishing it with extra mist. As long as his seed was not exhausted, it could be restored indefinitely.

After his experiment, he concluded that his supply of Black Qi could last for about five minutes.

Although it wasn’t long, it was enough.

However, in a real combat situation, while equipped with armour, he thought that it would be useless.

‘It’s fine. With my current strength, I am beyond the reach of ordinary Knights,’ Levi encouraged himself. He got dressed, bid the bears goodbye, and returned to his bedroom.

Reaching the fifth level of his Black Snake Breathing Method requires a full 20,000 proficiency points. Although a Knight is powerful, it is only the beginning of a much greater path.

The gap in power between qualified Knights and Great Knights is even greater than that between ordinary people and qualified Knights.

In the Emerald Kingdom, there were over a thousand qualified Knights, but the number of Great Knights did not exceed a hundred.
