Chapter Thirty-Six: The Second Crusade

Shortly after Li Fang and Annabelle's sparring ended, a voice came from the edge of the bright firelight.

"The first task after becoming the new No.16 of the organization really didn't put any pressure on you, it seems that you are still underestimated, Annabelle."

Kimir approached the warm fire with a false smile.

Maybe it was the impact of the Awakened crusade mission two months ago, Annabelle was transferred to the NO.16 region half a month ago, and her ranking naturally increased accordingly.

However, the new area is also in the west, and the two of them have not traveled long distances.

"It's a pity that since NO.15, there is a very inconvenient unspoken rule for the promotion of rankings, you have to compete with the fighters of the corresponding ranking or get recognized before you can be promoted, otherwise the organization should have promoted you to a single-digit ranking."

Unless there is a significant difference in strength between the two, the organization generally does not directly order the top 15 fighters to change their rankings, but defaults to the method of fighting against them to determine their own rankings.

When a fighter dies, the next warrior is automatically ranked one place.

Due to this attitude of the organization and the brainwashing that has been always, many fighters have a great attachment to their rankings, believing that this is a symbol of strength and honor.

Even in the past, there was a big sword named Rosemary, because she was very dissatisfied with being taken away by Teresa NO.1 without a competition, and she was resentful, and she didn't know whether she was actively awakened or just to the limit, so she sent her black letter to Teresa after awakening, wanting to prove that she was qualified to hold the honor of No. 1 by defeating this new NO.1.

But the result was that Teresa was easily counter-killed......

Seeing the arrival of this agent whose face could already ward off evil spirits, Annabelle still responded calmly: "If I can, I would like the ranking to remain the same." And now that the rankings have changed, we are now saying that these are useless, but since the organization has arranged it this way, I will naturally follow it, so there is no need to delay, just tell me the information of the next mission. ”

"Oh? It's really loyal. Since you are so anxious to hear this news, then I will say it directly," Kimir said rather coldly, "This mission is to crusade against the Awakened. ”

"So fast?" Kimir's words surprised Li Fang, and he couldn't help but wonder: "This kind of mission has only passed a short time ago, why did you come again?" ”

Annabelle, who also heard the news, suddenly changed her face.

"I'm just in charge of conveying the task, but I don't know so much why." Kimir grinned, satisfied with the reaction of the two, "In addition, the target of this mission should be the Awakened you met in Wally Town a year ago, it seems to be called Penny. You're really destined, but you can't run away this time. ”

"Although it is said that when she was a warrior of the organization, she was quite high."

"The meeting point is in the town of your, farther west, and it takes five days to arrive, and the target Awoken is roughly in an unnamed hamlet next to that town. I wish you all the best of luck this time. ”

With that, Kimir left, and as Annabelle rose up the ranks, his attitude gradually became less casual than before.

Maybe it's because the organization's eyes are already focused on it.

But even so, his bad character has not changed, and in the end, the so-called blessing is of course just a kind of bad taste, and Li Fang and Annabelle's helpless expressions make him very happy.

Although he definitely didn't want to receive the task of crusading against the Awakened again, in the past two months, Li Fang had saved enough money and bought Annabelle an attack equipment, plus Annabelle already had valuable experience in facing the Awakened, so in fact, the two of them were a little more confident than before.

"Armor-piercing bow

+80 Physical Attack

+10% cooldown reduction

Passive: +45% Physical Penetration

Because the measured armor-piercing ability of the Shadow Battle Axe increased by level was not ideal, and the awakened person who was defeated last time made the four-person raiding team suffer a lot because his defense was too high, considering that the awakened were generally rough and thick-skinned, so Li Fang gave priority to this armor-piercing equipment.

Although it only increases the armor-piercing ability by percentage, the measured effect of the armor-piercing bow is many times better than that of the Shadow Battle Axe!

Li Fang guessed that it might be because Annabelle herself was an offensive greatsword, and the armor-piercing attribute in the invisible basic attribute should be relatively high, so after equipping this equipment, on the one hand, Annabelle's arm strength has been further improved, and on the other hand, her restraint against high-defense opponents has been greatly increased.

Although the cooldown reduction attribute is wasted, it can be said that this piece of equipment is a must.

After all, there are only two pieces of defense-breaking equipment, among which the shadow battle axe is not very useful, but in the world of big swords, there are many awakened people with high defense, so Li Fang finally chose this armor-piercing bow among several pre-selected equipment.

There was a crackling sound of wood in the flames, Annabelle leaned against the great sword with a calm expression, and Li Fang could not tell from the delicate side of her skin that her heart was shaken in the slightest, even if she had to fight the powerful Awakened in a few days.

This is probably the cultivation of a warrior?

"I remember that the awakened person named Penny was able to divide a lot of whiskers from his body and had a wide range of attacks, but we are not what we used to be now, and with the Armor Piercing Bow, Anna should be able to cut off her whiskers."

The memory of escaping from Penny's hands Li Fang still remembers clearly, not only did she wash Wally Town in blood, but she also left one of Annabelle's arms, but for some reason she didn't chase it down in the first place.

That was when Li Fang was closest to death.

"This time, we at least know the Awakened's attack method, which is much better than last time," Li Fang cheered up and said in an optimistic tone: "Anna, your advantage is that you have a strong endurance, and you don't need to hide your strength, it is more advantageous to fight a little more and consume her more." ”

"Well, this mission should still be led by a single-digit ranked warrior, but I don't know if I can meet Shiluda and them."

Quintina once revealed to Hiluda that Annabelle's demon power is not inferior to her ranked NO.6, and judging from the performance of the battle, Annabelle, who is equipped with several pieces of equipment, also has the strength comparable to a single-digit warrior, so this four-person crusade team, there will be two big swords with single-digit strength!

It would be nice if they could form a team with Xiluda and them again, Li Fang thought to himself, because they had the experience of fighting together, their tacit understanding would be much better.

Of course, the most important thing is that Heroda is a defensive greatsword that will risk her own safety for the life and death of her companions, and she is quite resistant to beating, and if Anna is in danger, she should also try her best to rescue, so it can be said that Heroda is an ideal teammate for Anna's offensive greatsword.

Although I think so, I seem to be a little sorry for Heroda......
