Chapter 65: Promotion to Level 3
The original plan was to fight the three hundred Frankish knights, because the girls were all spiritually saturated, and Aske had no choice but to interrupt the plan.
The girls were originally very happy, after all, absorbing so much extraordinary power could make their physical fitness rise to a higher level.
However, in the Hearth Island, after listening to the "Extraordinary Power Rapid Consumption Plan" designed by Asker, everyone turned pale with fright.
To sum it up, everyone fights without armor, and then Asker hangs everyone with a wooden sword tied to cotton cloth.
"Why am I beating you?" Asker said incredulously, "I repeat, you are the ones who have come to besiege me and try to bring me down. ”
"What's the difference between this and you beating us!" The girls burst into tears and shouted, "Unless you swear not to fight back!" ”
"It's impossible not to fight back." "When you get to the battlefield, can you still expect the enemy not to return fire?" ”
"Now you have the lowest level 1, and you can't beat people with a wooden sword. Actual combat is the fastest way to digest extraordinary power, and besides, Nora is also here and can heal you. ”
"It hurts when a wooden sword hits your body!" Nora wailed.
"The pain is right." Asker said, "You know what? Physical pain accelerates the transformation of supernatural powers. ”
"Then why don't you let us hang and beat us?" Sidlifa came out and said.
"Okay, come on, come on." Asker waved his sword, "Please." ”
Sidlifa's eyes twitched, and she stood still.
"Sidlifa, haven't you always liked to fight?" Aske said strangely, "Why did you change sex this time?" ”
"I like to cut people, not to be cut!" Sidlifa shouted, "Every time I fight you, the result is that I am cut to the ground by you, curled up like a shrimp!" ”
"Then maybe you can turn defeat into victory this time." Aske said, "Didn't you absorb a lot of supernatural power? ”
Sidlifa hesitated, but quickly remembered the tragic situation of taking the first potion of Strength X, and then being stabbed in the left shoulder by Asker, cutting off the right waist, and immediately began to shake his head wildly.
"Then forget it." Aske dropped his sword in disappointment, "Then you each find someone to practice with." ”
So the girls cheered and began to look for their own partners.
Eleanor and Sidlifa practiced, and the two of them had a lot of fun fighting each other.
Mia is competing with Peggy, and the two agile melee attacks each other, and their figures are so fast that they almost stun people.
Nora and Medea held wooden swords and drank each other to attack and defend, so that Aske remembered a word for no reason:
Rookies peck at each other.
Teleporting out of the Furnace Island, Asker returned to the roof of the building, only to see Mi'er still on her knees, silently shooting into the distance.
"How's it going?" Asker came to her side and asked.
"Sealed." Miel replied.
"Sealed?" Asker was a little surprised. He understood what Mi'er meant, saying that she had blocked the Galata Bridge with just a sniper rifle.
"In the beginning, I shot a dozen knights." "Then they started trying to move forward with their shields, but they couldn't defend against my sniper rifles. So they tried to charge in a group again. ”
"The Galata Bridge is 500 meters long, and the time they ran from one end to the other was enough for me to shoot more than 60 times. In the end, they could not bear this level of loss, so they did not dare to send people to the bridge again. ”
"Didn't they try to break out in a car?" Asker asked.
"I'll shoot the tank." Miel replied.
"A car traveling at high speed, you can also shoot the fuel tank?" Asker was a little surprised.
"Shoot a few more times." Mi'er replied, "An average of 5-6 shots, 1 shot." ”
"Well, good job." Aske complimented her.
In this world without players, Mi'er was able to hold the Frankish knights on the other side of the Golden Horn for so long, and it had achieved the strategic purpose he originally envisioned.
"It's time for us to go."
"Don't you continue to block the bridge?" Mi'er was a little surprised, "I can still hold on." ”
"Your gun is out of ammunition." Asker said.
Mi'er was stunned for a moment, and then unloaded the magazine, and found that there were only three bullets left inside.
"Always remember the ammo capacity." Aske said earnestly, "Besides, you can't shoot like this forever." ”
"The Frankish knights, who had already crossed the bridge and came to the main city, probably had learned from the rear that there were snipers blocking the bridge, and were now searching for it in the mountains. Shooting any more will only reveal your position early. ”
"Impossible." "I didn't let any messengers cross the bridge. ”
"Did you know that there is such a communication tool as a mobile phone in the world?" Asker said.
Mi'er was stunned again, and then stopped speaking sullenly.
"You go back to the Furnace Island to rest first." Asker said.
Returning Mi'er to Hearth, Aske went downstairs and left. Along the way, it was found that there were more Frankish knights, and it seemed that they were consciously searching high-rise buildings and blocking roads.
However, for Asker, who is incredibly experienced in stealth, this blockade is simply ridiculous.
Soon he quietly descended the mountain from the other direction, heading in the direction of the 11th arrondissement.
Near the church of St. Polyuktos, he encountered a blockade of the defenders of the city.
After a brutal and detailed examination, Asker was finally identified and released.
By the time I got back to my ancestral home, it was already 9 p.m.
………………
Her Majesty Theodora is under house arrest by Her Majesty Zoe!
At 10 o'clock the next morning, after the attack on the main town of the Frankish knights was repulsed and all the knights withdrew to the opposite side of the Golden Horn, the defenders suddenly broke the news that this bombshell news went viral.
Regarding the details, there are several versions of the rumors.
The first version is that the invasion of the Frankish knights was caused by Theodora. Despite the opposition of Her Royal Sister Zoe, she was bent on asking for help from the West, but she ended up luring the wolf into the house.
The nobles and bureaucrats, who had suffered losses in the war, angrily questioned the Council of the Golden Consul, only to find that the agreement with the Venians contained only the seal of Theodora, but not the seal of His Majesty Zoe.
This is enough to show that the political positions of the two are indeed different. The defection of the Venians meant the end of the route to the West for help, and also marked the death of Theodora's political life.
In the second version, Theodora, in order to obtain the assistance of the Western Holy See, privately promised to agree to revise the canon according to the wishes of the Holy See, which greatly displeased the current Ecumenical Patriarch, His Excellency Alexei. Therefore, the Orthodox Church stood idly by the decision of the Council of Nations to depose the emperor.
The third version is official, in which His Majesty Theodora voluntarily abdicates and spends the rest of his life in a monastery because of his deep remorse and apologies to the empire and the people for his own mistakes.
All the supreme imperial power she had before was handed over to her imperial sister Her Majesty Zoe at the time of her abdication.
So Her Majesty Zoe became the only empress of the empire.
Although palace coups and military coups were common in the Eastern Solomonic Empire, such blatant plantings caused discontent among the masses in the imperial capital.
There is only Theodora's seal on the agreement, so what does that mean? Without the nod of Your Majesty Zoe, the bureaucrats below dare to negotiate an agreement with the Venisians?
However, the change of scriptures has aroused the dissatisfaction of many Orthodox believers. However, no Orthodox Church has come out to open up about this kind of thing, and no matter how exaggerated the rumors are, they can only chase after the wind, so the media began to talk about it again.
However, Asker is not going to worry about this for the time being, his second Sharps I potion has been digested, and he needs to take the third potion, Dodge I.
Dodge I, as the name suggests, is to allow the user to master the ability to dodge. From sideways, jumps, tumbles, and sliding tackles, to head-turning, sideways, or backwards, all of these are part of the potion's action.
Remove the potion from the cupboard. Dodge I takes on a completely clear transparent color, as if it were extremely clean water, lying quietly in a bottle.
If it weren't for the label on the outside, it would be easy for a normal person to confuse it with ordinary water.
Of course, you can see that it is a potion at a glance with spirituality.
Aske uncorked the bottle and poured all the potions in one go, only to feel that the strength of his body was instantly drained.
He fell to the ground weakly, feeling like he couldn't even breathe. Dodge I began to clash with his original sharp weapon I and perfect body I, and the muscles of his whole body began to atrophy rapidly, and after a while, he became like a dry corpse.
For the next ten minutes, it was as if countless axes and saws were cutting through his bones, but he was so weak that he couldn't even let out a groan of pain.
It wasn't until the physical conflict was over that Aske slowly sat up, his muscles expanding and full.
"Whew......" His body finally returned to its original state, and Asker let out a long breath of turbidity. Recalling the feeling of conflict just now, I couldn't help frowning.
Different bloodlines contain different combinations of potion sequences.
Generally, the bloodline will contain at least three potion sequences, for example, Nora's "Soul Singer" only has 3 sequences of "life", "spirit" and "heart".
Any bloodline path that contains 3 or 4 potions sequences is called a "Bloodline of Focus". Since there are fewer different sequences, the risk of loss of control is also lower.
At the same time, the potion's own sequence will be higher.
For example, when Nora is at level 10, she will have the ability of both Life IV and Spirit IV, which means that she will become a senior expert in manipulating life and spirit bodies, and there is no transcendent person in the same level who can become her opponent in this regard.
If there are 5 or more potions in the sequence, then this is the so-called "Dangerous Bloodline". The danger here is not only that the user is at a higher risk of losing control, but also that the enemy of this kind of transcendent being.
Because the more sequences you have, the more abilities you'll have, and the easier it will be to play all sorts of weird, unguardable tactics.
Especially at the bottom of the mysterious realm of "under the demigods, mortal fetuses in the flesh", many times the battle is not about who is more capable, but who is more terrifying.
After all, an ordinary person with a sniper rifle can also kill any transcendent below the demigod level, so why do they need higher-level destructive abilities?
No matter how powerful your destructive power is, is it stronger than a nuclear bomb?
On the other hand, if you have the ability to hallucinate, stealth, etc., it will be very easy to assassinate a transcendent - as long as the other person is not a demigod.
The bloodline of "Weapon Master" is one of the most dangerous bloodlines of all, including a total of 8 sequences of sharps, blunt weapons, projections, blocks, dodges, tactics, intuition, and perfect physiques.
Just digesting the third sequence, Asker's spirituality seems to be unable to support it, and I really don't know what to do with the subsequent potions sequence.
The game "Iron and Fire" has a game store, and if the character gets out of control while taking a potion, the RMB warrior can spend money to eliminate the runaway.
There are no RMB warriors in this world, and once they get out of control, they will definitely die.
I can only take one step at a time and look at one step at a time.
Asker stood up and began to digest the evasion knowledge that had come from the trait.
From the potion of Dodge I, he gained the ability to control distance and time accurately.
If an enemy is in front of him and slashes at him with a weapon in hand, he will immediately and naturally calculate in advance how far away the enemy's weapon is, when I should dodge, and how I can dodge the attack with minimal movement.
Compared to the previous experience to dodge, Aske will be able to rely on his body instinct to dodge enemy attacks even when his brain is empty.
The only fly in the ointment is that in the process of being promoted to level3, the dodge I potion replenished him with a lot of extraordinary power.
His spirituality was saturated again.
