Chapter 8 Ascension
Qin Ran frowned and looked at the cave in front of him.
The pursuing figure disappeared into the burrow just seconds ago.
The cave in front of him, as well as the sudden explosion before, all told Qin Ran that the other party had been prepared.
From the meeting of the 'Hellfire' sniper to the final self-detonation, it should be the other party's arrangement.
But why did the other party arrange it this way?
Also, Why did the 'Hellfire' sniper blow himself up?
These all made Qin Ran puzzled.
As for the 'Hellfire' snipers coming here on orders?
This is not difficult, from the moment of being 'punished', the other party is already a gambler with a red eye, and it is really easy to manipulate such a person.
Enough benefits will do.
"What is this arrangement for?"
Qin Ran frowned tightly and muttered to himself in a low voice.
On the side, lawless friends are also frowning.
None of the veteran players present were fools.
They also noticed something was wrong.
However, this did not prevent them from exploring the cave in front of them.
A skinny man is holding a remote control with an LCD screen and manipulating a puppy-like robot to explore a hole in the ground.
The LCD screen shows what is happening in the cave.
When they saw the bombs that flashed red clearly, everyone, including Qin Ran, gasped.
If you boldly follow that figure and break into it, the consequences will ......
"It should be the sensing type...... Not good, get out of here! ”
The thin man carefully identified the type of bomb, and then let out a sharp exclamation.
Everyone moved in an instant.
Rumble!
The moment Qin Ran's footsteps stepped out of Ximaiken Plaza, the entire Ximaiken Plaza flew into the sky with an explosion.
The huge impact knocked Qin Ran and his party to the ground.
"XXX, MY DOG!"
"Bastard, don't let me catch you!"
"Otherwise, I'll have to give you a taste of a 2,000-volt stun gun!"
The skinny man who had manipulated the puppy robot to explore before rolled over and got up from the ground, yelling loudly at the blazing Hemeken Plaza.
Several people who were disgraced on the side also scolded one after another.
Several people chased one person, but let the other person run.
Even, I was almost yin by the other party.
This is really infuriating for several veteran players.
In the midst of a burst of cursing, Qin Ran found that Lawless was a little absent-minded.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Ran asked.
"Think of something else!"
"Killer player, do you need me to help you sell the equipment of the shield hand and Collei?"
"I'm looking forward to your 5% commission!"
Lawless replied with a smile.
"Over to you!"
Qin Ran said very simply.
He could see that Lawlessness was diverting the subject.
Because, that excuse is so clumsy.
The 5% commission is just based on the normal price charged for trading in the secret market.
Moreover, lawlessness is not a money-grubbing person.
Therefore, Qin Ran must have seen something lawlessly.
It's just that Qin Ran didn't ask.
Since lawlessness has made excuses, it must be impossible to say what it will do.
He asked again, and what was the point.
It only adds to the estrangement.
After that, under the introduction of Lawlessness, Qin Ran got to know the senior players present one by one, so he refused the offer to go back to the Harvest Tavern for a drink and left alone.
He's on a tight schedule.
The 'reading books' project, which was supposed to start right away, has been delayed for a long time.
Qin Ran didn't want to delay any longer.
……
In the next two weeks, Qin Ran read books in his room, except for regular contact with Lawless to confirm whether there was any new news about the 'Killer Organization'.
However, without guidance, every time Qin Ran reads, what he gets is such as-
[After reading, the alchemy experience increased slightly......]
[After reading, the astrology experience has increased slightly......]
……
Each reading was a slight increase, and there was never any hint of growth, considerable growth, as was the case with the guidance of a high-level skill holder.
"Looks like it's going to have to take more time!"
Qin Ran muttered softly to himself.
His original plan was to reach the basic level of one of [Alchemy] or [Astrology] before entering the next dungeon world.
But now it seems that it is clearly impossible.
After all, tomorrow is the day to enter the world of dungeons.
Qin Ran took a deep breath and put down the book in his hand.
Although he was annoyed that the plan was not fully felt, it was not a reason to affect the next plan.
If a plan is not completed and the future plan is affected, that is the real frustration.
Qin Ran looked at his points and skill points.
[Points: 77500; Skill Points: 21; Gold Skill Points: 3; Gold Attribute Points: 2]
After completing two glory kills, accepting a compensation, and selling most of the assets of the two killer players, and then, after putting together the two shattered-level [Soul Crystals] harvested in the previous dungeon world and the two that were left in his hand before for sale, Qin Ran's points and skill points unconsciously reached an objective level.
Among them, when selling the assets of two killer players, Qin Ran was inclined to skill points.
'Rare-level skills consume a lot of skill points, so you have to be prepared! ’
This was a lawless suggestion from a veteran, and Qin Ran naturally would not ignore it.
In order to make this copy more certain, Hans paid in advance.
Of course, there is also lawlessness as a hub.
If it was just Qin Ran and Hans, such an early payment would definitely not be so easy.
Qin Ran took out the orange skill book [Foot Knife].
A system prompt will follow.
【Discovery Skill Book: Foot Knife】
[If the learning conditions are met, do you want to study?] 】
"Learn!"
【Learning Skill: Foot Knife】
【Name:Foot knife (basic)】
[Attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution]
【Skill Class: Attack】
[Effect: Use one of your feet to slash out a half-moon energy with attack power and sharpness judged to be weak, consume 100 stamina, and cool down for 5 minutes]
[Consumption: Stamina]
[Learning conditions: [Hand-to-hand combat. Two-legged fighting] (Mastery), Strength D-, Agility D-, Constitution D-]
[Note: This is a powerful fighting skill, but you need to seize the moment!] 】
……
[The strength has reached this type of skill, and the current level is up to the limit, so it cannot be improved!] 】
[Agility has reached this type of skill, the current level increase ceiling, cannot be improved!] 】
[The physique has reached this type of skill, and the current level is up to the limit, so it cannot be improved!] 】
Qin Ran looked at the [Foot Knife] of the basic level.
In terms of results, he did not disappoint.
After all, it's just a basic level, and he won't ask for too much.
And then the upgrade naturally became a must.
[Foot Knife] costs 500 points and 2 skill points to upgrade from basic to beginner.
The lawlessness said that the consumption of skill points is quite large, and it is already the first hint.
According to the rules of skill improvement, Qin Ran could completely imagine the cost of raising the [Foot Knife] to a certain level.
However, Qin Ran, who had been prepared for this for a long time, was not surprised at all.
He just raised the level of the [foot knife] step by step.
【Foot Knife】Basic → beginner → proficient.
Beginner → Mastery, costing 3000 points and 6 skill points.
The number of points and skill points increases almost in geometric multiples.
【Name:Foot knife (proficient)】
[Attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution]
【Skill Class: Attack】
[Effect: Use one of your feet to slash out an attack power, and the sharpness is judged to be an ordinary half-moon energy, consuming 150 stamina and cooling for 4 minutes]
[Special Effect: Penance (Your Foot Knife Attack Power and Sharpness will slowly increase by leveling up)]
[Consumption: Stamina]
[Learning conditions: [Hand-to-hand combat. Two-Legged Fighting] (Expert Level), Strength D+, Agility D+, Constitution D+]
[Note: This is a powerful fighting skill, but you need to seize the moment!] 】
……
[The strength has reached this type of skill, and the current level is up to the limit, so it cannot be improved!] 】
[Agility has reached this type of skill, the current level increase ceiling, cannot be improved!] 】
[The physique has reached this type of skill, and the current level is up to the limit, so it cannot be improved!] 】
……
After two upgrades, the special effect [Penance] that appeared made the attack power and sharpness of the [Foot Knife] reach the average level.
In Qin Ran's cognition, an ordinary pistol is also an attack judgment of this level.
"Should I say it's a rare-level attack skill?"
"A kick with the power of a bullet?"
Qin Ran couldn't help but get excited when he thought of this.
You know, this is not the limit of the [foot knife].
Of course, if he wants to continue to improve, he must improve his agility and physique.
However, this was naturally not a problem for Qin Ran, who had the [Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique].
Everything seems to be going extremely well.
But this did not prevent Qin Ran from discovering more information.
"Attribute points are more valuable than you think!"
"Even rare-level skills have great limitations in terms of improving their attributes......"
"So, after reaching a certain level, is it only legendary-level skills that can help the attributes?"
"Or is it that even the legendary skills have lost their effect? Can only rely on gold attribute points? ”
Qin Ran thought silently.
In the end, Qin Ran shook his head.
Such a thing is too far away from him.
You don't need to think about it now, you just need to keep it in your heart.
After taking a deep breath and calming the thoughts in his heart, Qin Ran clicked on the upgrade option of [Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique].
[Dawn Knight Forging (Beginner→ Mastery) requires 9000 points and 3 gold skill points, yes/no to pay? 】
"Yes!"
[Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique reaches the mastery level, you can choose a special effect]
[A: Strength +1]
[B: Agility +1]
[C: Constitution +1]
[D: Spirit +1]
[E: Perception +1]
A series of options appeared in front of Qin Ran.
Without hesitation, Qin Ran gave the answer.
"I'll pick D!"
The particularity of spiritual attributes is destined to Qin Ran's choice.
[Player Choice D: Knight's Focus (Spirit +1)]
[Name: Dawn Knight Body Forging (Mastery)]
[Attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution, Spirit, Perception]
【Skill Category: Support】
[Effect: You know how to use special movements and breathing to make yourself stronger, all attributes +3 (+1 base level + 1 entry level)]
[Special Effect: Knight's Focus (Spirit +1)]
[Consumption: Stamina]
[Learning conditions: Strength E, Agility E, Physique E, Spirit E, Perception E]
[Note: This used to be a compulsory course for knights in the Dawn Church, and it determined the level of knights' other skills!] 】
……
[Skill Dawn Knight Body Forging Increase, Related Attributes Increase ......]
【Strength C-→C】
【Agile D+→C-】
【Constitution D+→C-】
【Spirit E+→D】
【Perception C-→C】
……
When Qin Ran gave a positive choice, the next moment, the whole person fell into a warm current that made people sleep.
Qin Ran tried his best to keep his eyes open and not let himself fall asleep.
He savored the process.
