When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

"Teacher Lisern, do you have something to talk to me about?"

In the evening, in the woods near the campsite, Altaïr came to Li Shanren.

"Altaïr, um... I heard that you are very proficient in various weapons, is that true?" Li Shanren asked, holding his chin.

"Well... I can't say I'm particularly good at it," Altaïr answered truthfully. "But I have some knowledge of swords, blunt weapons, daggers, spears, hooks, flails, throwing knives, two-handed swords, and other weapons. I can also do some bare-handed combat, but relatively speaking, I am more comfortable with the hidden blade and sword."

Listening to Altaïr's introduction, Li Shanren's heart moved slightly.

He didn't know how much gold there was in Altaïr's so-called "knowing a little bit", but judging from the types of weapons that the other party blurted out, this experienced senior assassin was probably about the same as a weapon master...

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Altaïr asked.

"I do need to trouble you with something." Li Shanren spread his hands, a little helpless on his face, "I have some health problems."

"...Is it serious?" Altaïr's eyes became serious.

"Um...how can I tell you..."

Li Shanren gave a bitter smile, then suddenly walked to a tree as thick as a person and hugged it with his arms.

Next, under Altaïr's astonished gaze, Li Shanren easily pulled up the tree by its roots, swung it a few times as if it were a piece of cake, and planted it back.

"This...what's going on?" Altaïr was a little stunned.

In his impression, as a magician, Lisern should not have such strength. Although he could also uproot a mature tree and plant it back, he would never perform it as easily as Lisern.

"As you can see, my body has undergone some changes."

Li Shanren explained as he lowered his head to brush off the sawdust and dirt on his body.

"Due to some reasons that I cannot explain... well, you can think of it as a special magical effect. In short, I am currently unable to cast advanced magic, but my strength and speed have been greatly improved. So before I recover, I can only deal with possible dangers as a warrior."

"In order to adapt to my current state as quickly as possible, I want to ask you to test my current strength and speed. At the same time, I want to learn how to use swords from you."

"So that's how it is." Altaïr's eyes showed realization, and then he said seriously, "No problem, I'm happy to help you with this."

"Let's start." Li Shanren smiled faintly.

A few minutes later.

Altaïr looked at the iron sword in his hand that had broken into two pieces and fell into deep thought.

Just now, he competed with Lishen in strength and speed, and finally found that Lishen's strength was much greater than his, and his speed was almost the same.

Then, in order to test Lisern's overall strength, he drew his sword, assumed a defensive stance, and let Lisern swing at him with all his strength.

Then, in just a moment, his sword broke.

Moreover, Lisen seemed not very familiar with his own strength and could not control it at all. If he had not used the assassin's ability to dodge quickly, he might have been chopped down.

"Are you okay?" Li Shanren sheathed his knife and walked over to check the situation.

He was really afraid that he would not be able to stop himself and kill Altaïr with one blow.

"Not bad." Altaïr took a deep breath and then looked at Li Shanren. "However, you cannot control your own strength. You do need some training."

Li Shanren could only smile awkwardly. He himself was aware of the problem.

When we were at the border, it wasn't very noticeable because there were very few situations that required deliberate control of force, but after returning to this side, it became very obvious.

For example, he accidentally broke his homemade chopsticks into two pieces while eating lunch today...

"Okay, this is exactly what I need." Li Shanren said seriously.

In the following period of time, Li officially began his close combat training.

The first thing is naturally strength control training.

Altaïr casually carved him a rough wooden sword and asked him to chop at nearby trees every day. One day, he would be able to leave cuts on the tree trunks without breaking the sword itself. This would mean that he was able to initially control his own strength.

During the training, Altaïr also taught the correct way to hold a sword and how to prevent the weapon from slipping out of the hand.

Of course, although ordinary swords and knives are both one-handed weapons, due to the different characteristics of the weapons, for example, the most obvious point is that the knife has a single-sided edge, while the sword has a double-sided edge, so the actual usage techniques are still quite different.

Although Altaïr still respectfully addresses Li Shanren as "mentor", when it is his turn to train as a melee instructor, he is not polite at all. He strictly seizes every minute of training time and often wakes Li Shanren up for training before dawn.

So during this period of time, Li Shanren rarely even went to the border area.

He was afraid of the embarrassing situation that Altaïr would come to find him and he would not wake up.

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, the convoy had been on the road for more than a month, stopping and starting, and was still halfway to reaching Byrkinworth.

However, the further north they went, the stronger the cold wind became. When encountering a snowstorm, the convoy had to stop and camp temporarily, waiting for the wind and snow to pass before continuing on their journey.

......

In the afternoon, the sky was overcast with heavy clouds pressing deeply overhead. Snow flakes fell quickly from the sky, forming a thick layer of snow on the roof of the car.

In the warm carriage, Li Shanren slowly opened his eyes.

He felt a little stuffy in his chest, and when he looked down, he saw a little girl with silver-gray curly hair lying quietly on him, seemingly fast asleep.

Li Shanren gently moved her aside, then stood up, tiptoed around Hugo and Amicia, who were leaning against each other, walked to the curtain, and slightly opened it.

The cold and snow outside immediately rushed in impatiently.

Li Shanren left the carriage against the cold wind and sat on the frame. The curtain behind him was restored to its original position, keeping the wind and snow out again.

"Lisern, why did you come out?" the red-eyed girl who was pulling the reins asked in surprise.

"I came to see you." Li Shanren rubbed his hands and exhaled a breath of hot air. "Do you want to go in and rest for a while? I'll just watch over here."

After so many days on the road, he had learned the basic driving skills even if he just watched.

"No, I'm not that cold." Tifa raised her right hand wearing a black leather glove. "The glove you gave me is very warm and can help me dispel the coldness in my body."

Li Shanren was slightly stunned. He didn't know that the Flying Dragon Gloves had such a hidden effect.

"By the way, how do you feel about the training these days?" Tifa suddenly asked with a faint smile on her face.

"Well... I can only say that you are really rude..."

Li Shanren rubbed his forehead helplessly.

After training with Altaïr for a few days, Ezio and Tifa, who discovered this, also joined the coaching team to train "Lishen".

Altaïr created a daily training plan for Li Shanren, and personally supervised the most important force control training and basic swordsmanship sparring.

Ezio is his swordsmanship teacher. Born into a noble family, he has systematically learned basic swordsmanship, which is more suitable for beginners.

Tifa is responsible for training Li Shanren's reaction ability and melee defense ability.

Simply put, it means getting beaten...

Tifa will use her high agility to attack Li Shanren from all directions. As a fighter, her attack speed is extremely fast.

At the beginning, facing Tifa's attacks, Li Shanren found it basically difficult to defend or dodge, and was hit from time to time.

Fortunately, Tifa doesn't really exert any strength, she just touches it lightly and then withdraws.

However, every time she attacked, she gave people a sense of oppression of explosive power, but when it fell on Li Shanren, she seemed soft and powerless.

This means that Tifa has a very high level of control over her own strength and has reached the level of "making light of heavy things".

It is precisely under this oppressive "threat" that, although he knows he will not be hurt, Li Shanren will still instinctively try his best to dodge or defend.

But this kind of training also made Li Shanren grow very fast. Now he can basically defend or dodge more than 70% of Tifa's attacks, and ordinary attacks can no longer easily hit him.

After all, his current physical fitness is up to standard, he just lacks the corresponding combat experience.

"But you're improving very quickly, aren't you?" Tifa smiled softly. "I don't want you to lack the corresponding experience because of our laxity, and end up encountering misfortune in battle."

"That's true..." Li Shanren sighed.

After this period of testing, he now has a certain understanding of his own strength.

First of all, his strength and speed have reached a level above gold, especially in terms of strength, even Altaïr is far behind him.

However, Altaïr himself is not a power-type extraordinary being, so Li Shanren is not sure whether his strength is at the high-end gold level or has reached the emerald level. If Wei Luo were here, he could have asked him to test it.

"The snow seems to be getting heavier." Tifa looked up at the flying snow.

"Well, if we can't move forward, let's find a place to wait for the snow to stop." Li Shanren said seriously.

Towards evening, the snowstorm became so strong that we could hardly move forward. It was even difficult to set up camp as there was no suitable place nearby.

"There is a small village ahead. Perhaps we can stay there for the night and then continue our journey tomorrow after the snow and wind stop." Altaïr said in a serious tone as he returned on horseback.

At this time, the convoy had stopped on the road.

In such weather, Altaïr's young eagle could hardly fly, so he had to go out and investigate himself.

"However, the presence of a village in such a remote place may be problematic." Altaïr looked at Li Shanren on the ground dragon carriage and said, "Teacher, you make the decision."

Li Shanren bowed his head and thought for a while, then looked at Altaïr and asked, "Have you had any contact with the villagers?"

"Not yet." Altaïr shook his head. "I did not enter the village. But I saw lights in the windows."

Upon hearing this, Li Shanren jumped off the carriage, blew the whistle on his horse, and turned over to ride on Torret.

"I'll go contact them, you guys wait here until I come back."

"I'll go with you." Tifa got off the bike. "You're in your current state. If you run into danger, it might be hard for you to handle it."

She looked at Li Shanren with concern.

"It's okay. I have them to protect me. It's okay."

Li Shanren smiled faintly and shook the soul-summoning bell at his waist.

"Ring ring ring..."

The next second, three wild wolves as strong as calves appeared behind Li Shanren. They had light gray fur, but the hair on their backs was snow-white and slightly curled up, making them look a little different.

A beautiful woman sat on the back of the largest wild wolf. She was wearing thin silver armor, carrying a quiver on her back and holding an exquisite longbow in her hand.

"Um... outside the border?"

The woman on the wolf's back looked around and murmured in an inaudible voice.

[Item Name]: Letina and the Stray Wolf (+3)

[Concentration value consumption]: 96

[Effect]: With the help of the Soul Summoning Bell, you can summon the souls of Platinum Son Letina and the three stray sleeping wolves.

[Explanation]: Letina is a famous magic archer with superb magic archery skills. For the mission she shoulders, she voluntarily transforms into a soul and embarks on a journey with the Fading One. Because she lost her partner, the wolf Rob, she was unable to run, so she reached a cooperation with the stray wild wolves and helped them transform into sleeping wolves. It is said that sleeping wolves are the natural partners of the Platinum Son Archer, and the two are indispensable.
