Chapter 393: A New Way of Fighting
"Can I take a look?" Thor asked Funa suddenly.
The thief Shiitake smiled slightly, and happily handed over a cloth perfume bag used by a girl.
Sniffing the faint scent, Thor pulled the rope from the mouth of the bag and saw five thin sheets of gray cotton paper neatly stacked inside. Thor twisted one out of it and gently dismantled it, revealing some unknown powdered object on the paper.
At first glance, Thor almost thought it was the light of corruption, but the light of corruption was dark gold, and the powder in his hand was dull and earthy yellow. I don't know if there are any side effects on the human body, and Thor didn't sniff it with his nose.
In addition to spirit powder, the literal meaning is very simple, it is nothing more than to destroy ghosts.
Life will always find its own way out, and it seems that today's mainland adventurers obviously have their own new methods for dealing with new monsters in the wilderness such as ghosts, and this bag of powder may be a kind of magic or alchemical creation.
"How do you use this thing? just throw it out?" Thor asked Funa, turning to him.
"Yes, but it's hard to time the dust to blow. Because ghosts are very flexible, they sometimes fly like swimming fish. ”
"So the biggest effect of this dust is actually that it is very diffusive, even if you can't eliminate the ghost in time, it can temporarily form an exorcism space around it, so that adventurers can get a moment of respite and re-exert countermeasures. Funa replied truthfully.
Thor looked down and thought that the ghost she was talking about should be referring to the necromancy that Neferna was talking about. If you encounter the powerful weirdness of a living being, once you fall into the powerful rule power of the other party, this kind of spirit powder is probably a joke.
"Do you all have this?" Thor turned to glance at the five members of the group.
"Yes, my lord, but we only have three. The strong man, the leader of the three men, replied.
"This is only the most basic means of removing spirits, and the better ones are holy water, holy crosses, holy seals, and so on. Funa explained.
"What is the price of this Eliminator powder?" Thor asked.
"Twenty silver coins. Funa replied.
Twenty silver? Thor was secretly a little shocked in his heart, this price could catch up with the secret realm scroll, the key was that this was only a low-level method. Thinking about the string of holy water that popped out of Funa's mouth, you can imagine the huge profit behind it.
This is not good news for the adventure environment of the mainland, and for the majority of adventurers, this price is not affordable for ordinary people. Even if the adventurer doesn't die from the monster, he will eventually be dragged down by the increasingly expensive price.
The Dark Wilderness seems to be more dangerous, not only for trade to be affected, but also for active adventurers who have no money to spare, and who may not be able to prepare adequately, so they can only stay or be trapped in one place for a long time.
Who is benefiting behind these consumables?
The Dark Council, the Temple, the Cult, and Thor's thoughts diverged a little for a while.
"Are you all locals?" asked Thor, looking up.
"The three of us were born and raised in Minetown, but we don't have any relatives. The three men replied.
"My sisters and I traveled all the way from Kennera. The two adventurers Shiitake replied.
"Okay, what do you do if you run out of spectres on the road?"
"These consumables are at best temporary supports, not enough to support the battle, and we can't afford to buy better ones. When it comes to fighting, I mainly rely on my sister's professional skill 'Flame Slash', but unfortunately I don't have any special skills myself. Funa replied.
"We don't have any special skills either, and the second order only awakens ordinary sword skills. The man in the lead answered.
Yes, I actually forgot about professional skills, probably because I didn't use it before.
Thor frowned, quickly establishing the prevailing way of fighting in the wilderness today. There is no doubt that the professions of magicians will be more popular, and secondly, people with some special professional skills will also be popular, such as sword skills with magical attributes.
From Neferna's mouth, Thor learned that almost all ordinary weapon attacks do not pose a threat to the necromancy, which has to be said to be bad news. It is conceivable that the adventure environment of the mainland has been reshuffled to a certain extent, and the mainstream combat power has been reduced a lot.
For example, like Staunt and Diller, their abilities have not departed from the sword level after all, and the strength of the fourth order seems to have become an ornament.
This has to be said to be a kind of irony!
The most unfun game in the world is that you have been watching others play, and when you think you have mastered the rules and are ready to do it yourself, you find that the rules of the game have suddenly changed, and even the game has changed.
The future of the world is obviously more difficult, Thor shook his head slightly and sighed, he could only return to the present first.
"You wait here for me for a while, and then you'll leave later. Thor explained to the others, and turned and entered the wilderness.
Looking at Thor's back, several people were a little suspicious, especially the two adventurers Shiitake who had a little experience.
"Sister, this guy seems to be mysterious, but he doesn't seem to know anything about ghosts! we just follow him so recklessly, we won't end up killing ourselves, right?" the thief Funa muttered to her sister Randy.
"Let's wait and see. The swordsman Shiitake Randy, who had not spoken much, shook her head slightly, she was not sure.
The smell of the wilderness was still bleak, and Thor stopped in a clearing after leaving the town.
"Neferna, how far is your vision of darkness?" asked Thor.
"What is Dark Vision?" the voice of the goddess Shiitake sounded in her arms.
"It's the maximum distance you can see in the dark, like in this dark wilderness. Saul replied.
"Are we in the dark now? Oh, I said I haven't seen the day and night all the time, and my vision is grayish. Forget that I'm just an ordinary person now, and if you have the maximum distance, you can't see it until you can't see it. Neferna replied after trying.
You can't see it? You're still an ordinary person? No, you're not a human being, are you? It's ordinary enough.
Thor's cheeks twitched rapidly, countless words jumped in his heart, and he suddenly felt like a wasted person.
"So do you usually seek out the enemy by sight or perception?" Thor asked again.
"Perception. ”
"Well, you see now...... Sense if there are any necromantic enemies nearby. Thor didn't bother to sigh anymore.
"Well, I'll see, there's one directly east of you!" Neferna pointed out.
Thor quickly drew his sword and accelerated, lunging to the right.
"Ah, it seems to sense you, it runs, you front left. The goddess sent a new direction, and Thor continued to run wildly.
Soon Thor noticed a vague shadow floating in his field of vision, but the other party was fleeing, apparently unmotivated. Thor sped up and shortened the distance between them, so that he didn't need Neferna's warning as long as he was in sight.
At first glance, the creature looked similar to the dungeon ghost, wearing a rotten linen cloak, but it was disembodied and moved in an eerie way, like a fallen leaf fluttering in the wind. Thor quickly caught up, slamming out a crack in the abyss.
And then...... It's empty!
The moment the blade hit, it felt like some kind of mollusk bent strangely, just in time to dodge the slash. Thor realized that slashing people and slaying ghosts were obviously different, and he had to have a sharper prediction in advance.
Running wildly again to chase closer, Thor saw the opportunity and finally succeeded with a swift slash.
Thor didn't see the face under the ghost's hood clearly, and it wasn't a mushroom face, so what was there to see?
There was no blood gushing, not the slightest wail. The moment he was slashed by Thor, a strange irregular crack appeared on the ghost's body, and then the entire body staggered into two halves in the air and disappeared without a trace.
Then Thor noticed that some shimmering dust appeared in the air and rushed towards him, penetrating into his body, bringing a brief feeling of cool comfort, and finally returning to silence, which is probably what the goddess Shiitake said about soul repair.
"How's it going? Isn't it sharp and handsome? It's just that it feels silly to run wild in the wilderness like this, and it's probably tiring to run for a long time, is there a more efficient way?" Thor turned to ask the only spectator beside him.
Siye was silent and unresponsive.
"Where's the people?" Thor wondered.
Not far away, Neferna was seen crouching there.
"Oh, sorry, I'm eating. She turned her head and explained.
Isn't the ghost corpse gone? Why is this still ...... And are you really a goddess? Why am I chasing here like a dead dog, and you're not busy admiring my demeanor but busy eating corpses?
In the future, he resolutely refused to kiss this shiitake mushroom, and Thor secretly made up his mind with a disgusted face.
The low-level necromancer didn't feel very good in terms of strength, it just seemed to be a little more flexible than the dungeon ghost, Thor tried to summarize. I don't have much experience in other aspects, after all, the other party doesn't fight back, and will only dodge and escape.
Your own dark constitution is obviously very useful, but if you want to kill the enemy, it will be a little troublesome.
This warm-up battle is still rewarding overall, and maybe in the future, I can use the rift in the abyss to replace those magic consumables. As for mental power, the upper limit of the number of times you can use your professional skills must be predicted first.
There is no doubt that mental strength will become a particularly important hard indicator for all professions in the future.
Thor pondered, and instantly circled a few of the battle points he had gathered.
"You're so good~!" Neferna, who had eaten and drunk, floated over contentedly.
"Awesome fart!, you're probably the most hypocritical of goddesses!" Thor rolled his eyes.
"Why do you still have this secret ability, it won't hurt me, will it?"
Thor's eyes lit up.
"It's hard to say, it's up to you to behave in the future, otherwise be careful when it suddenly breaks in two. The old dog Thor bared his fangs.
"Can you bear it? I've fallen to the point where I have only a remnant of my thoughts. Neferna hugged her shoulders with a pitiful look.
"Anyway, you remember, in the future, you'd better take the initiative to warm up the blanket before the Great Demon King goes to sleep. ”
"In case I'm not satisfied with the inspection, I'll ...... Oh, into a state of evil chaos. I'm going to lose my mind and kill everything around me, really, even I can't be sure, it's dangerous. "Thor had a crazy look on his face.
If there is a choice, Thor does not want to threaten a shiitake mushroom.
But there is no way, the gentleness towards the shiitake mushroom monster is cruelty to oneself, this is a matter of principle.
