Chapter 37: Proof of Strength (Part II)
The expected system prompt of "Buzz ——" did not appear, but the golden-bodied warrior monk... No, it should be said that the face of the "First Warrior Monk" showed a look of pain, and his body also let out a slight roar.
"Weird, what's going on?Anyway, there will be bugs in the system?" Luo Ning couldn't help but panic a little when he encountered the situation of skill addition and failure for the first time.
Luo Ning only thought that this was also a bug in the system, and tried to activate the "Intermediate Attribute Enhancement" again. But history is always strikingly similar: the buzz reappeared, the skill points were still not added, but the pain on the face of the first warrior monk deepened.
Luo Ning was puzzled, and suddenly heard the solemn Buddha horn of the first warrior monk ringing in his ears: "Amitabha! Charge into battle, a husband is in charge, and the poor monk should not let this matter go! But if you fight alone and win by skill, you still need to rely on exquisite swordsmanship! Donor, please be cautious!"
As soon as the first warrior monk said this, Luo Ning was fine, but it was a normal performance for the puppet to upgrade and evolve when he obtained the ability of "language communication". But several people nearby were all taken aback, showing incredulous expressions.
It must be known that in conventional cognition, there are two kinds of puppets on the continent. One is to engrave a magic pattern on the surface of the puppet's body and activate a magic circle to drive the puppet, while the other is for the puppeteer to seal part of his soul into the puppet's body, control the puppet and give it the most basic fighting instincts. Either way, puppets should not be self-aware and unable to communicate with their summoners.
But the words of the first warrior monk are still in their ears, everyone knows that this is not a temporary illusion, that golden puppet does have its own strangeness!
Princess Lena, Wendy, and the Magic Bell were all surprised and quickly accepted the fact, Acro was calm and didn't care what Ronin was up to, and Neo, who had heard a lot of strange things that few people knew about when he traveled on a mission, suddenly remembered a rumor he had heard near the Frostdragon Mountains. Legend has it that Todd, the "Lord of All Spirits" among the Nine Heavenly Extreme Sages, is also a skilled puppeteer. The puppets he created not only have lifelike appearances, but also have the same joys and sorrows as humans, and can think independently!
"Could it be that the origin of that puppet... What about Ronin?...... Neo stared at the first warrior monk standing with his eyes closed, his brow furrowing more and more.
And Luo Ning finally figured out the meaning of the first warrior monk. In the second layer of the skill tree, in addition to "Intermediate Attribute Enhancement", there are also three skills: "Puppet Incremental Summoning", "Puppet Swordsman Summoning", and "Puppet Priest Summoning". The "exquisite swordsmanship" in the mouth of the first warrior monk is supposed to correspond to the "Puppet Swordsman Summon".
Luo Ning thought of this, 10 skill points were dropped, and the system prompt sounded immediately.
"Turn on the combat skill: Puppet Swordsman Summon! Obtain the initial Puppet: Descendant of the Tomb (level 5)." Puppet Acquisition Skills: Jade Girl Swordsmanship (Level 2), Heaven and Earth Netting (Level 2), Beauty Fist (Level 1)"
"Heirs of the Ancient Tomb?!!Could it be ..." Luo Ning was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly summoned this swordsman.
But then she found that although this girl puppet in a goose yellow power suit was extremely beautiful, her whole body was made of stainless steel, showing a cold metallic luster. What's more: those delicate eyebrows flew up into the sideburns, and there was a faint murderous aura in the eyes, which was quite manly, which was definitely not the temperament that Luo Ning imagined the "dragon girl" should have!
When Akuro saw this girl puppet, he was a little interested: "Oh, another puppet, how many puppets there are, just release them together! My rules remain the same, as long as you hurt the Secret Leopard Spirit, I will recognize your strength!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Luo Ning could speak, the girl puppet drew his sword out of its sheath and pointed its sword at the throat of the secret leopard spirit, and ordered in a cold voice: "Little bald head retreat! I'll clean up this guy!"
"Eh, little bald head, I'll go, it seems that the first warrior monk is not as senior as her!" Luo Ning heard that the majestic first warrior monk had become the "little bald head" in the mouth of the girl's puppet, and saw the first warrior monk retreating obediently without saying a word, and an inexplicable sense of joy erupted in his chest.
Acro chuckled twice, but his eyes suddenly became sharp: "What an interesting puppet! Three minutes are up, Secret Leopard Spirit, attack!"
Before his voice fell, the half-human-tall Secret Leopard Spirit suddenly activated, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air and disappearing. From the shallow footprints that appeared out of thin air around him, as well as the occasional scattered sand and dust, Luo Ning knew that the leopard spirit was not really invisible, but was running back and forth at an ultra-high speed that was difficult for the naked eye to catch. With just one click, the Secret Leopard Spirit showed an astonishing speed that was not lost to the high-level assassins.
In the face of the ethereal enemy, the girl puppet did not have the slightest nervousness. It must be known that the swordsmanship of the ancient tomb sect has always been known for its incredible speed, and listening to the voice and distinguishing the position is the basic kung fu of "heaven and earth", how can she be afraid of this level of threat when she is a descendant of the ancient tomb?
I saw the girl puppet close her eyes, and after a while, the whole person suddenly shot out, and pointed in the direction of the left back with her backhand. With a sharp roar, the originally empty position suddenly shone brightly, and a dark blue light shield in the shape of a semicircle appeared. And the Secret Pattern Leopard Spirit happened to be crouching behind the magic light shield, and there was a humanized panicked expression in its eyes.
The girl's puppet forced the leopard spirit to become apparent with one move, and then took advantage of the weakness to unfold the sword move, and the sword was slashed straight with a move "Wandering World", and the light shield was smashed with a "bang"; followed by another move "colored pen thrush", the long sword slashed the leopard spirit's chest obliquely.
The leopard spirit was also unambiguous, and jumped to the side as the magic shield disappeared. It made a comeback with a roar, and two sharp claws that suddenly glowed with a blood-colored glimmer staggered across it, which was the leopard spirit's signature skill, the blood-colored raid!
The two claws of the Secret Leopard Spirit are so powerful that you can even hear the whirring wind, and even the puppets made of obsidian have a chance to tear them apart. But it misses one point: although the power of this skill is terrifying, it is relatively slowed down a lot. In the eyes of the girl puppet with exquisite swordsmanship, it was a complete faint move.
I saw that the girl's puppet's body suddenly rushed forward, bent her waist back, lowered her body and slid on her knees with her legs, making the secret leopard spirit pounce in the air. And at the moment when the two bodies were intertwined with each other, the girl's puppet suddenly used a "clear drink", and the tip of the sword turned up and pointed at her cherry lips, as if she was raising a glass to drink wine. But just before the tip of the sword was about to touch her, she leaned her neck to get out of the way, changed her "raise her eyebrows", held the hilt of the sword with both hands, raised the sword upward, and inserted the long sword into the soft abdomen of the secret leopard spirit. At this time, the spirit body of the Secret Leopard was in the air, and he couldn't even see where the long sword was stabbing from, let alone managed to resist it.
After this series of dazzling sword moves, the girl puppet thought that the victory was decided, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. But who would have thought that at the same time that the long sword was submerged in the lower abdomen of the leopard spirit, Akuro on the sidelines couldn't help but make a move. He snorted lightly twice as the dragon bone staff pointed at the leopard spirit, causing its body to suddenly transform into a faint blue light that was almost completely transparent, and could not even be seen with the naked eye unless he looked closely. In this way, the puppet girl's carefully designed sword moves naturally stabbed into the air.
Seeing that the sword move failed, the puppet girl slapped her right palm beside her, and turned over in the blink of an eye. She looked over and saw Acro withdraw the magic attached to the leopard spirit, allowing it to solidify again.
"Despicable!" the maiden puppet shouted angrily, raising her sword to attack again.
"That's enough!" Before the puppet girl could get up and fight back, Akuro, who was standing on the sidelines, spoke first. He withdrew the Secret Pattern Leopard Spirit with a cold face, and was silent for a long time before sighing softly: "If it is in the jungle, your puppet may not be able to beat my Leopard Spirit......!" I shouldn't have made any excuses......!
He withdrew the leopard spirit, and his eyes relaxed a lot: "If this puppet is a proof of your strength, then Ronin Campbell, I recognize your strength!"
"Great! Brother wins!" said Wendy, jumping and laughing happily.
She saw that the girl's puppet was beautiful and lifelike, and she wanted to touch it with her own hands out of curiosity, so she walked in the direction of Luo Ning. As soon as he reached the halfway point, the ground under his feet suddenly began to shake violently. With a rumbling sound, the ground a few meters away from Wendy was suddenly swept away, and an ugly and ferocious giant monster scurried out of the ground with a bloody mouth that could swallow a foal.
