Heath was a little surprised, but he quickly walked forward.

Knight Thor said, "The Baron is very satisfied with your outstanding performance on the battlements. This is a reward for you. Keep up the good work and strive to become a Knight as soon as possible."

Heath took the Golden Blood. "Yes."

The Apprentice Knights were very envious.

Knight Thor snorted. "What are you looking at? If you want it, go and fight for it yourself. The Baron has never been stingy with outstanding Apprentice Knights. As long as you are outstanding enough, you all have a chance to obtain the Golden Blood."

The Apprentice Knights said energetically, "Yes!"

...

Time passed in a flash. Three months had passed very quickly.

In the Demonized Forest, somewhere.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The crisp sound of rushing wind could be heard. A young man with a longbow on his back was chasing a Petrified Wild Boar.

While running in the forest, Heath raised his longbow and pulled the bowstring in one go. With a whoosh, an arrow was shot at the Petrified Wild Boar.

The cold sound of the arrow alerted the Petrified Wild Boar. Its fur suddenly tightened, and a layer of stone-like grayish-white substance immediately appeared on the surface of its skin. The entire wild boar seemed to have turned into a stone statue.

This was the ability of the Petrified Wild Boar. When it encountered danger, it could tighten its fur and temporarily obtain a defensive power comparable to that of a stone.

The arrow hit the Petrified Wild Boar's skin, and with a crack, the arrowhead broke into two. It seemed that it was unable to break through the Petrified Wild Boar's defense.

Seeing this, Heath could not help but snort coldly, and once again pulled the bowstring.

This time, after pulling the bowstring into a full moon, he was not in a hurry to shoot. Instead, he held the bowstring tightly and continued to aim at the Petrified Wild Boar.

At the same time, a layer of faint silvery-white light gushed out from the surface of his body and quickly moved along his palm towards the bowstring in his hand.

As long as there were Apprentice Knights present, they would definitely be able to recognize the meaning of this light at a glance. It was the power that all Apprentice Knights dreamed of --

Knight!

Whoosh!

The cold sound of an arrow exploding once again sounded, but it was more than several times sharper than before.

The arrow left a visible cold light in the air as it shot towards the Petrified Wild Boar in front of it.

Although the Petrified Wild Boar's fur had been tightened and petrified at the first moment, the arrow wrapped in white light still tore through its fur and plunged into its flesh.

Boom!"

The Petrified Wild Boar, which weighed over a hundred Jin, was actually lifted up from the ground by this arrow. It crashed heavily into the grass in front of it like a cannonball.

Heath chased after it and pushed aside the grass. Soon, he saw the corpse of the Petrified Wild Boar. There was a big hole in its chest, and it was completely dead.

"As expected of the strength of a Knight!" Looking at the wound, Heath nodded in satisfaction.

For the past three months, he had been hunting in the Demonized Forest every day and enhancing his attributes by extracting skills.

After three months of continuous effort, he had successfully condensed the Seed of Life in his body last night and became a true Knight.

Heath placed one hand on the Petrified Wild Boar and said, "Extraction."

[Beep, extraction successful. Vitality +0.01]

[Beep. Host's current attributes are: Strength 5.1, Agility 5.3, Vitality 5.0, Spirit 1.2]

A Knight's three-dimensional average value of more than 5 points was the symbol of a Knight.

Don't think that it was easy. Take the Apprentice Knights who entered Graystone Castle at the same time as him as an example. Among them, the most talented and hardworking one had a three-dimensional average value of fewer than 3 points.

Heath carried the Petrified Wild Boar and turned around to walk back. Demonized beasts could be sold for money.

Rustle.

At this moment, a slight rustling sound was heard.

The bushes in front suddenly shook.

At the same time, Heath suddenly felt a dangerous aura. He hurriedly threw away the wild boar and jumped to the side to avoid it.

Whoosh!

Almost at the same time he moved aside, a sharp sound of rushing wind could be heard. An arrow flew out from the bushes and brushed past his head, almost piercing his skull.

A slightly surprised sneer could be heard from the bushes. "Yo, kid, your reaction is not bad!"

Then, a figure walked out from the bushes. He was a male, about twenty years old. He was short and dressed in black leather armor. There was a white wolf's head emblem embroidered on his chest.

"Barton, damn you! Didn't we agree to capture him alive? You almost shot his head with an arrow!" Another voice could be heard.

Another figure walked out from the bushes. This time, it was a burly man with a double-edged ax in his hand.

He was also wearing black leather armor and had a white wolf's head emblem embroidered on his chest.

Heath frowned and asked coldly, "You're from White Wolf Castle! You trespassed into Graystone Castle's territory without permission. Are you trying to start a war?"

White Wolf Castle was another noble's territory in River Valley, and its territory was adjacent to Graystone Castle.

The relationship between the two sides had never been good. This time, it was even more unpleasant because of the ownership of a new Graystone Mine found on the border.

It was obvious that the two of them did not intend to hide their identities. After hearing Heath's question, the short man pulled out his cross-shaped sword and taunted as if nothing had happened, "Hahaha, so what if I am?"

"What? Do you cowards of Graystone Castle still dare to resist?"

The burly man next to him grabbed his huge ax and cursed, "Why are you talking so much nonsense with him? Hurry up and chop off his limbs and bring them back. That little bitch I just caught is still waiting for me to do it. Don't waste time here!"

Heath sneered. "Kill me? Then let's see if you have the ability to do it!"

After saying that, he did not waste any more words. He pulled out his cross-shaped sword and took the lead in launching an attack.

The burly man laughed out loud. "Just in time!"

After saying that, he raised his double-edged ax and swung it forward from top to bottom.

The huge ax was 1.5 meters long and weighed at least a hundred kilograms. Under the swing of the burly man, the air seemed to explode. With this ax swing, it was likely that a Petrified Wild Boar would be split into two halves.

However, Heath did not dodge this terrifying attack. Instead, he swung his sword forward. It was as if he wanted to compete in strength.

The strong man could not help but laugh. He had never lost in a competition of strength among people of the same level.

In the next second, the two weapons collided in the air.

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding was as dull as a gong.

The burly man's smile froze on his face.

This was because when the two weapons collided, he only felt a huge force that seemed to be able to topple mountains and overturn seas. It shook his thumb and forefinger so much that it almost did not leave his hand.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The burly man took more than ten steps back.

The skinny man said in astonishment, "Clive, what the f*ck are you doing? Didn't you say that you're not playing?"

The burly man waved his hand and said in surprise, "That kid is very strong!"

The skinny man's face turned serious. He knew Clive's strength very well. Even among Apprentice Knights, he was at the top of his class. Strength was his forte, almost comparable to an official Knight.

Now that he had lost in a head-on fight, it was enough to prove that this Apprentice Knight in front of him was extraordinary.

When did Graystone Castle produce another genius?

As he guessed in his heart, he pulled out his cross-blade and stood behind Heath, flanking Clive.

He said gloomily, "Genius? I like to slaughter geniuses!"

The battle began again!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing exploded in the forest, and large sparks flew in the air.

Even though it was one against two, Heath was not at a disadvantage. The cross-shaped sword in his hand drew out streaks of cold light in the air, striking the two until they could not raise their heads.

After the two sides had tangled for less than ten rounds, Heath seized a flaw in the burly man's speed and directly cut off half of his head with a sword.

The remaining thin and small man's hair stood on end when he saw this. He had no desire to fight at all and ran away without thinking.

Heath did not chase after him. He picked up the longbow that was still on the ground, pulled the bowstring, and shot an arrow out.

Whoosh!

With a sharp whistling sound, the sharp arrow flashed in the air. With a 'pu' sound, the arrowhead pierced through the thin man's chest.

Lowering his head to look at the faint silvery-white glow that covered the arrowhead, the thin man's eyes were filled with confusion and unwillingness.

"Knight... Knight..."

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he fell to the ground and followed in the footsteps of his companion.

Heath wiped the blood splattered on his face and walked forward.

'I wonder if I can extract from humans?'

As he guessed in his heart, he placed his hand on the brawny man's corpse and chanted in his heart, 'Extract.'

[Beep, extraction successful. Strength +0.1]

[Beep, extracted White Wolf Killing Technique.]

[Beep, extracted White Wolf Battle Aura.]

Heath's eyes lit up. 'It's really possible, and I managed to extract so much at once!'

Not only did his strength increase by 0.1, but he even obtained two treasures, White Wolf Killing Technique and White Wolf Battle Aura. One had to know that this was the secret manual for White Wolf Castle to train Knights, and it was the greatest capital for the Bain family to establish their foothold in River Valley.

Then, Heath extracted from the other man, but this time, he only gained a 0.1 agility bonus.

'It seems that I can't obtain the same knowledge again!'

Shaking his head, Heath stopped thinking and looked at the two corpses.

'I'll study them later. I'll take their heads back to the castle first...'
