Chapter 80 - 0080: Start Learning Archery



Crooked-neck Bob was so excited he couldn’t sleep all night.

Lord Landlord not only did not blame him, but also rewarded him with ten silver coins!

This was like a pie falling from the sky, and moreover, Lord Landlord told him to find a way to expand the cultivation area of the red mushrooms—he had given them a name, calling them Flame Mushrooms—and preferably replace all the mushrooms with Flame Mushrooms. The more he planted, the more rewards he would receive in the future.

“Quiet! John from Tomato Hamlet got a Gold Coin reward from Lord Landlord!” His wife, disliking Bob’s excessive excitement, couldn’t help but pour cold water on him.

Bob didn’t care at all: “What do you know? The reward is only ten silver coins now because Lord Landlord needs me to figure out the Flame Mushroom cultivation ingredients. I, Bob, am the best mushroom grower in Mushroom Hamlet; once I figure out the ingredients, Lord Landlord said, there will be more rewards!”

He looked forward with longing: “Definitely more than John’s one Gold Coin! Maybe… it will be two Gold Coins? Oh, what a marvelous moment, to have two Gold Coins!”

“But you must first figure out the ingredients, and if you can’t, Lord Landlord might take back the ten silver coins and have you whipped!”

“Of course, I will figure it out—I’m going to do it right now!”

Finding the right cultivation ingredients for the Flame Mushroom would certainly not be left to Bob alone to figure out; Liszt had already discussed with the hastily arrived Goltai and gathered all the skilled mushroom growers from Mushroom Hamlet to investigate together. Whoever could figure out the recipe would be rewarded.

Liszt, now down to just a few Gold Coins, would not be stingy.

He wanted to use the magic of money to stir up the residents’ enthusiasm for new things, rather than continue the stale, inherited ways of farming.

“Teacher Goltai, classify the cultivation ingredients of the Flame Mushroom as Fresh Flower Town’s top-secret information that must not be disclosed to anyone. In the future, all places growing Flame Mushrooms should be restricted areas, accessible only with Castle authorization,” said Liszt seriously.

The Magic Potion of ordinary plants needs the cooperation of Elf Bugs, which makes them difficult to replicate.

For example, the Magic Tulip can basically only be grown by the Tulip Family. Even if outsiders steal the seeds, without the Tulip Elves’ cultivation, the plants would inevitably degrade into ordinary tulips within a generation or two.

Mushroom Magic Potions, on the other hand, can be continuously propagated. If outsiders steal the spores and ingredients and do a little research, they would be able to mass cultivate them.

Goltai understood the importance of the matter: “Rest assured, my lord, I will discuss with Isaiah a set of confidentiality measures to ensure that there is absolutely no chance of the Flame Mushroom cultivation method being leaked.”

“Even more care is needed; this is a Magic Potion mushroom and no amount of vigilance is too much.”

“Understood,” Goltai nodded, then sighed with emotion, “In just a short time, Fresh Flower Town has changed dramatically, with two Elf Bugs nurtured and two kinds of Magic Potions born. This land is definitely the favored place of Knight’s Glory, my lord, you must certainly be the inheritor of Knight’s Glory!”

Knight’s Glory is the slogan most cherished by the Nobles.

This world has a very medieval style, but it hasn’t developed a nearly all-ruling religion. This might be because humans can cultivate themselves to become invincible and free from illness and disaster. Thus, they scorn ‘gods’ or even have a sense of ‘I am a god’.

The belief of the Nobles is only in Knight’s Glory!

The cultivation of Dou Qi and the constant striving to become more powerful Knights bring them everything!

Of course, there are exceptions; Magicians definitely do not believe in Knight’s Glory—rumor has it, they believe in “knowledge.”

Liszt calmly looked at the moonlit night.

If there truly was Knight’s Glory, he believed that he was indeed blessed by Knight’s Glory—gifting him a beautiful life experience.

“I hope one day to ride a dragon.”

Marcus arrived at the castle early. Starting today, he would teach Liszt archery.

“My archery technique is called ‘Multi-Arrow,’ which is an advanced extension of ‘Basic Archery.’ It focuses on controlling multiple arrows rather than the power of the arrows. Right now, my lord, you lack basic archery skills, so you cannot learn ‘Multi-Arrow’ yet. You must start with ‘Basic Archery’ first.”

As he spoke, he handed over a bundle of arrows.

“These are?” Liszt had a bow and arrows bought from Tulip Castle, which included a hard bow suitable for an Earth Knight, and he had also been given one hundred birch wood arrows.

“These are made of Wind Falcon feathers and oak from Thorn Ridge, Falcon Feather Arrows, all custom-made by me, totaling twenty-four. Within these, six are Falcon Tail Arrows made from the tail feathers of a Wind Falcon; to differentiate, I’ve painted a red circle on the shaft. Falcon Tail Arrows have better balance than Falcon Feather Arrows.”

Marcus said with some regret, “It’s a pity that most of the Wind Falcon’s feathers were destroyed by monkeys, otherwise, I could have made a large batch of Falcon Feather Arrows, which are much better than the common bird-feather arrows on the market. The subtle magic power in the feathers can make the arrows fly faster and more steadily.”

The Wind Falcon had fought a chaotic battle with monkeys, and all its feathers were torn to shreds, and then Liszt had unleashed a powerful spell that burned many of them.

Being able to fix and craft twenty-four Falcon Feather Arrows was not an easy feat.

However, Liszt did not accept the Falcon Feather Arrows: “I haven’t learned archery yet and do not need Falcon Feather Arrows for now. Please keep them, Teacher Marcus. When it’s time to clear out the Thorn Ridge Beasts, we will rely on Teacher Marcus’s precise archery skills.”

Marcus did not refuse: “Yes, my lord!”

Then came the time for teaching.

As a Divine Archer, Marcus had a profound understanding of archery and a clear teaching approach. Liszt quickly immersed himself in learning to shoot.

As an Earth Knight, his physical condition was robust.

He could continuously draw the bow and shoot arrows, which made learning archery much easier than for ordinary people.

“The Smoke Mission requires me to learn all of Marcus’s archery techniques, which means it’s not enough just to learn ‘Basic Archery,’ I must also learn ‘Multi-Arrow’… I need to speed up my learning progress, otherwise, this mission will last too long.”

For this reason, Liszt even put his Dou Qi training on hold.

He devoted himself entirely to archery.

Therefore, on the castle’s riding grounds, there was a shadow that sped back and forth, Liszt practicing shooting arrows from horseback at various erected targets.

He learned very quickly, and after a day, he could already stand still and shoot at the target’s center, with nine out of ten arrows hitting the seventh or eighth ring—the Earth Knight’s control over his body allowed him to enhance muscle memory faster, helping him discover more precise shooting techniques.

Two days later, he was able to hit the target with five out of ten arrows while shooting from horseback.

On the fourth day.

Liszt continued to the riding grounds to practice mounted archery, but a shameful act occurred on the grounds—the Li Dragon Horse mounted the Fire Dragon Horse, gyrating for more than four minutes before dismounting and acting nonchalantly, lowering its head to graze.

“Hmm, the riding grounds are about to face a passionate season. Perhaps I should reduce the frequency of the trade caravan’s travels and bring over all the female nags for the Li Dragon Horse to mate with… Although nags are of poor quality, crossbreeding with a trace of dragon blood, their offspring will definitely be much stronger than the nags.”
