The speed of the stone, under the power of the Grand Duke's guard, became extremely fast, almost no less than the crossbow arrows fired by the crossbow.

However, just as the pebble was about to shoot into the sea, bringing ripples, Dean's wrist flicked slightly, and the rod drove the fishing line, making a crisp 'pop' sound, and it easily rolled up the pebble and fell into Dean's hands.

Dean pulled the entangled line away from the pebble and placed it on the embankment.

"Are you showing me your mastery of [Heart Like Water]?"

Looking at Dean's movements, the Grand Duke's guard captain couldn't help but snort.

"Of course not!"

Dean immediately shook his head, and his eyes subconsciously looked at his skill bar.

[The heart is like stopping water Lv4: With the power of the mind, dominate the body; Special effects: 1. Spiegel: calm mind, able to clearly perceive vibrations within a radius of one kilometer (only effective when a certain range of vibrations is reached); 2. Subtlety: better control of the body, consumption -10%]

(Note: No special options)

Undoubtedly, this is another special secret art.

Although XP is required to improve, there is not much XP required, from Lv1 → Lv4, it only takes 200XP, which belongs to the category of intermediate to advanced body forging secret arts.

There is no increase in the basic stats, but the special effects are extremely powerful.

This is true both for the Spiegel and for the subtleties.

It's as if Dean had wrapped a pebble in a fishing line with a heavy lift. Both special effects play an irreplaceable role -

When the pebbles came through the sky. The kind of movement that is like ripples on the water. Dean clearly grasped a qiē, and then wrapped the stone with a fishing line in a more relaxed manner, which made Dean notice the changes in his body-

10% consumption, perhaps not much.

However, the change was immediate.

At the very least, it made Dean more aware of the power in his body that he didn't have to expend.

Or, to put it more simply: the effect is the same, but in some places it has been used in some places. And now it has been corrected.

"Do you dominate the body with the power of the mind?"

Dean glanced at the introduction of the system again, and subconsciously adjusted himself with the breathing method of [Heart Like Stopping Water], and included all the live animals within a radius of one kilometer in the surrounding area.

Dean is no stranger to this feeling.

In the previous life, when his perception reached the gold level, he could also do this with ease, and even more clearly.

In his perception, ants and other insects are all the best.

But. This does not mean that the heart is not strong enough.

Opposite. Under the Cheng dù of [Perception: 6.09], [Heart Like Stopping Water] can feel the footsteps of a person walking within a radius of one kilometer, and this kind of auxiliary body forging secret technique is absolutely powerful - for this reason, Dean once again thanked the Jade Grand Duke for being able to teach him such a special secret technique as [Heart Like Stopping Water] without hesitation.

With the characteristics of [Heart Like Stopping Water], it can be regarded as a secret art of inheritance among any nobles.

Even in a royal family, it is rare.

After all, according to the explanation of the Jade Grand Duke, with the change of [perception], [heart like stopping water] will also change.

Not only will the range change, but it will become clearer, and Dean guesses that perhaps when he enters the silver upper stage, he will be able to achieve the effect of the original gold level.

Of course, if Dean had raised the level of [Heart Like Water], he might not have to wait until that time.

However, at this stage, what Dean needs is to accumulate XP points and reach the strength of [Trolls], so he has to slow down this step for the time being.

What's more, Lv4's [Heart Like Stopping Water] is enough for Dean at this moment.

Putting the rod away, Dean stood up.

"I'll go first!"

Dean said.

"Where are you going?"

The Grand Duke's guard was stunned.

"I've mastered it, of course to go around and take a look at my opponents? Tom told me before, and the king of high races in the past two days has been very lively! ”

Dean asked with a smile.

"Wait for me! I'll go too! ”

The chief of the Grand Duke's guard picked up the basket and chased after Dean who had already walked forward.

Being able to stay in the docks without being bored is naturally quite good news for the Grand Duke's chief of guard.

"Didn't Your Highness not allow you to leave the docks?"

Dean glanced at the Grand Duke's chief guard beside him and couldn't help but say.

In view of the reckless, rugged, and aggressive nature of this 'Black Rose', when he learned that the powerful people from all over the country of Gaosai were beginning to gather in the royal capital, the Grand Duke of Jade strictly ordered that his chief guard should not leave the docks.

"It's just a moment, Your Highness won't find out - you don't want to report the news! Otherwise, I will sue Your Highness, in order to be with Your Highness more, you deliberately pretended that you would not be able to learn [your heart is like stopping water]! ”

The Grand Duke's Chief of Guard sternly warned Dean and threatened him.

With Dean's cousin just now, the Grand Duke's guard commander even determined that Dean had done this on purpose before.

Dean touched the tip of his nose and didn't explain anything more.

Some things will only get darker and darker, and it is far better to keep your mouth shut.

And in the face of Dean, who was silent, the Grand Duke's chief of guard couldn't help but laugh proudly.

She thought it would be easy to get out of the docklands as long as Dean didn't get informed.

However, when he walked to the dock, the smug smile that the captain of the guard had just had just now disappeared without a trace.

"Lord Guard, you can't leave without His Highness's order!"

A group of Emerald Grand Duke's guards stood in front of the chief of the guard.

"Why? Dean can leave, why can't I? ”

Facing the guards who suddenly appeared in front of him, the chief of the Grand Duke's guard shouted unconvinced.

"Lord Zelgaon. Of course there is no problem. But. You...... Please don't embarrass us! Your Highness has repeatedly ordered you not to leave the confines of the docks! ”

The guard looked at the Grand Duke's chief of guard with a wry smile, and then, pleadingly, at Dean.

"Of course, His Highness's orders need to be obeyed - Irene, I'll go and go back!"

Dean said solemnly to the Grand Duke's chief of guards, and then, without looking back, he quickly disappeared within the range of the dock area, and looking at the direction of Dean's disappearance, it took a long time for the Grand Duke of Guards to react.

"Dean. You guy deliberately lured me here and was stopped by the guards! ”

The Grand Duke of Guard shouted.

However, at this time, Dean, who had already left the military port, naturally couldn't hear it.

Even if he did, Dean would never admit that he had deliberately led the other party to the path that the guards had to go through - it was not that Dean was unwilling to go with the other party.

Rather, according to the character of the other party, once he leaves the military port and enters the place where the powerhouses from all over the Gaosai gather, he will definitely cause trouble.

For this. Dean and the Emerald Grand Duke have a consensus.

Dean, who had walked out of the military port, did not hire a carriage. Instead, they walked straight towards the lower city of the royal capital of Gaosai.

In the west of Xiacheng District, for the sword competition of the founding commemorative celebration, Gao Saiwang deliberately opened up a huge open space for participants to sign up and rest.

It took more than ten minutes for Dean to come to the clearing, and looking at the crowded appearance, Dean simply bypassed the entrance registration area, and instead walked to the side door - this is to facilitate the entry and exit of the contestants who live in it, and it is guarded by a team of city guards.

However, the warning effect of this group of city guards is far greater than the actual effect.

After all, the contestants inside are not civilians who can be frightened by swords alone.

Dean walked through the wooden door, his eyes scanning the tent area in front of him that had been split in two.

One side is very ordinary, and the other side is slightly luxurious.

Just by the appearance of the tent, Dean could clearly judge the identity of the commoners and nobles who lived on both sides.

Of course, the nobles here are just some minor nobles!

The real nobles have already entered the upper part of the royal capital - even if the king does not have a residence, but those who are truly noble have absolutely no shortage of friends who can borrow it.

And able to tolerate such shanty-like tents.

Even the aristocracy has long since broken its essence.

However, even the dilapidated aristocracy has the so-called aristocratic honor.

This is especially true when you're with a group of civilians.

So, some conflicts became inevitable -

"Kill him!"

"Kill this guy who insults the honor of the nobility!"

……

Such a noise resounded one after another in this clearing, and since Dean stepped here, two nobles have died in battle to protect their honor, and although the remaining one has won, the broken arm announces the tragic fate of the other party in the future - a nobleman who can't even hold a sword, even in Jade, has no future, let alone in Gaosai.

And what happened here is just like Tom's announcement: lively!

Dean looked at the contestants as he walked.

The appearance of a few people appeared in his mind - although according to reason, those people were still silent at this time, but according to the rules of the reappearance of the sword fighting competition of this commemorative celebration, the other party appeared here.

Dean didn't doubt the news of his servant's inquiry.

And for these people, Dean naturally can't talk about wooing.

The difference between the two countries, Emerald and Gaosai, made Dean have no such thoughts at all.

If Dean is a Gosai, there may still be some opportunities, but Dean, who is an Emerald Man, basically can't gain the loyalty of these people.

Dean, though, can't, but his collaborators can.

is not only a Gaosai person, but also a Gaosai royal family, which is really a suitable identity, and with the current situation of the other party, he really needs some helpers.

And the next moment, Dean found a target.

In the middle of a crowd of men in cloth or leather armor, an ordinary, but extremely strong man, was holding a wine barrel and watching the duel in front of him, cheering and laughing loudly for the two people who were fighting.

"The Mercenary King of Gosai: Oylo!"

In the first moment, Dean confirmed the other party's identity.
