Chapter 85: Bloody Smile

“waaagh!!”

The leader of the five barbarian ranks, after the gigantic body of the "berserk", gained +4 increase in strength and constitution, roared and rushed towards the masked girl, the halberd in his hand like a steel windmill, reflecting thousands of dazzling cold rays in the moonlight. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Compared with the huge monster, the masked girl looked more and more petite and weak, but her eyes did not show the slightest cowardice, gritted her silver teeth and waved her knife to block the other party's crazy onslaught, and the gold and iron resonated in a line, and the girl couldn't help but take a step back after each weapon impact, obviously losing the upper hand in the duel of power.

The strength of the gnoll leader is not only in strength, but also in the fact that the halberd in his hand has an attack range of more than 10 feet; In contrast, the masked girl had two knives in her hands that were less than five feet, and she could not pose a threat to her at all.

The masked girl knew that she would definitely lose if she continued to fight like this, and she also knew that the opponent's long-handled weapon only had an advantage of about 10 feet, and if she could break through to within five feet, the long-handled weapon would become a burden that would be difficult to fall, so she decided to take a risk and take the initiative to change: jump and dodge the halberd horizontal slash, and gently tap the tip of the halberd blade on the side of the halberd, and take advantage of the force to rise into the air and pounce on the leader of the gnoll.

Unfortunately, the leader of the gnolls had been wary of her calculations, and with a sly glint in his eyes, he took advantage of the masked girl's advance to withdraw his weapon abruptly, hooking the opponent's ankle with the angle of the halberd blade and the grip, and tripped her to the ground.

Witnessing the masked girl being thrown to the ground by the leader of the gnolls, Roland knew he could no longer sit on the sidelines. The backhand pressed against his chest, and the brilliance of the spell turned into a shining doji, and it slammed into his body with a bang, as if he was correcting the crosshairs for him.

Defeat the enemy first!

With a flick of the reins, Roland urged the Celestial War Horse to rush to the lakeside of the fierce battle. On horseback, he remained focused, holding the emblem in his left hand and reciting prayers. The goddess of fate has shown grace on her chosen people, and the golden divine energy emerges from Roland's body, condensing into a golden rhinoceros with substance, charging into battle with the pace of the war horse!

Rhinoceros!

Boom! Durandal unsheathed, and Roland ignored the gnolls who had just escaped the tear gas smoke and galloped straight at the one-eyed leader.

"Huh? Where did the wild boy come from, dare to meddle with Lao Tzu's affairs! The leader of the gnoll waved his halberd to force the masked girl back, turned to face Roland and stood upright, backhanded the halberd, stuck it upside down on the ground and kept it tilting forward, and the snow blade pointed directly at the charging war horse.

Charging on horseback is a double-edged sword that deals double damage to enemies, but it can also deal a head-on blow to the charger if they are armed with a longarm and are prepared to meet them. Obviously, the Gnoll Leader is planning to do just that.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Roland's lips, and when the war horse approached the leader of the jackals, he suddenly jumped up with one hand on the saddle, and the enchanted crystal on his chest buzzed with a loud glow, providing him with a strong boost for this leap.

The Celestial Horse halted its momentum less than ten feet in front of the gnoll leader, and the man rose to his feet and neighed.

The gnoll leader's ready greeting was frustrated, and he hurriedly raised his halberd in an attempt to block the attack from the air.

Roland didn't leave him a chance to make amends, and slashed with his sword in both hands.

Rhino charge, slash violently!

"Defeat the Enemy First" ensures that this sword is absolutely hit, "Fierce Attack" is maximized and the damage is tripled under the effect of "Jump Split", and finally all damage bonuses are doubled again through "Rhino Charge", like a thunderbolt on the head of the gnoll.

Swish!

The sword flashed, and the leader of the gnoll stood stunned.

Roland leapt over his head, sheathed his sword in the air, and landed smoothly.

Behind him, a bloody streak split in the center of the gnoll's leader's eyebrows, extending down to his chest, and his massive body was almost split in half by Roland's sword, and he fell to the ground with a bang, blood splattered everywhere.

When the rest of the gnolls saw their leader slain with a sword, they were all frightened, and scattered on the spot, and the defeated dogs wailed away with the wind.

Roland turned and walked over to the corpse of the gnoll leader, tracking the luck fluctuations and picking up a blood-stained belt of animal skin.

A large piece of topaz was inlaid on the belt buckle, and when the blood was wiped away, mysterious runes faintly appeared in the jade.

Absorbing 1 degree of luck, Roland confirmed that this is a "growth belt", the wearer can perform the "Transformation Technique" once a day, and within ten minutes, the body size will be doubled, the weight will become eight times, the strength will gain +2 body type correction, and the agility will be reduced accordingly.

In addition to the size advantage obtained in the verification of breaking the door, grappling, rushing, tripping and falling, the greater benefit is that the weapons and equipment also double with the body size, the attack range is wider, and the lethality is greater.

Roland already has a Giant Power Belt, and the Growth Belt is more suitable for Lyudmila. Because Lyudmila herself is equivalent to half a giant, her advantageous size and the ability to change her giant can temporarily give her the advantage of a super-large giant.

The masked girl stared silently at the cyan crystals embedded in his breastplate for a long time, and suddenly took off her veil to reveal a pretty face that made Roland feel familiar.

"Excuse me, your Excellency is Mr. Roland Koras?" The girl asked, clenching her fists.

Roland smiled back: "If I'm not mistaken, you're Vlad's sister, Miss Veronica from Parnia?" ”

Veronica nodded and smiled: "Vlad sent me a lot of information about you, and asked me to wait for you and your friends in the settlement area, if you don't dislike it, can you take me with you on the next trip?" ”

"You can't ask for it." Roland forcefully removed the flying crystal embedded in the breastplate, "Miss Veronica's strength has only been seen with my own eyes, worthy of the elite ninja of Parnia, this magic crystal is your brother's token, now that we meet, the magic crystal should be returned to its original owner." ”

Veronica waved her hand and said softly: "My jumping skills are high enough, I don't need to leap crystals, you should keep it, and it can play its value better with the 'Flying Slash'." ”

"Flying Slash?" Roland was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was referring to the "Jumping Split" Upanishads given to him by Vlad. It's normal for the same specialty to have different names in different regions and cultures, and it doesn't matter if it's ornate or plain.

Roland is not a pedantic person, and since the ninja girl is a sincere gift, he will accept it.

"By the way, Veronica, how did you come into conflict with those gnolls?" On the way back to the camp, Roland led the war horse and asked the female ninja as he walked, "And the one-eyed leader, who said he was going to take you back to apologize to some 'Lord Lorenzo', what is going on?" ”

Veronica shrugged her shoulders, and a little helplessness appeared on her pretty little face: "Lorenzo is a dark elf assassin, nicknamed 'The Dead', his sister is a dark elf priest, known as 'Dragon Toucher' Agatha, and the two siblings are the right-hand men of 'Skinning Baron' Nero, and they have done a lot of evil things together. I disguised myself as a dark elf thief to join their gang, intending to rescue the children they had kidnapped while they were unprepared, but before I could find a chance, Lorenzo's pervert came to pester me, I didn't want to be taken advantage of by him, so I took the sheep and stole something and escaped, and the guy didn't give up, and recruited a group of gnolls to hunt me down. ”

Roland glanced at her sympathetically, "It's too risky for a girl to wander out alone, but fortunately you're fine, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain it to your brother." ”

Veronica smiled sweetly, her black and white eyes flashed with a sly look, "You can't bully me in the future, or I'll sue Vlad." ”

Roland suddenly laughed, and said in his heart that this girl was really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and some of them had a headache in the future.

Veronica blinked, and then said, "If Vlad says bad things about me to you, don't believe me, I'm actually a very good person, and you'll know it after a long time." ”

Roland scratched his head, does this mean that I will be a nanny for a long time?

"Well, this is for you, it's a thank you for coming to the rescue." The girl took out a pair of barbed iron gloves from her dimensional bag and held them in front of Roland as if offering a treasure.

The strong luck rushed to his face, and Roland couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and his heart was in turmoil. Judging by the concentration of luck, even if this glove is not a legendary equipment, at least it will not be inferior to the "Blasphemous Star".

"That's what you stole from Lorenzo?"

"That's right! It's called 'Bloody Smile', so put it on and try it out. The girl had a pure smile on her face, but in Roland's eyes, she was a little devil with horns on her head.

"If I accept this stolen goods, I will firmly attract the hatred of Lorenzo and his comrades, and take over this piece for you."

"Well, I don't understand what you're saying, but it seems to make sense." The female ninja looked at him with a smile, her expression cute and cunning, like a cute kitten wagging her tail.

Roland couldn't resist her cuteness, so he had to take the hot potato and silently absorb the luck.

After a while, a full 10 degrees of Qi luck was incorporated into his body, and the total amount of Qi Luck Pool soared to 29 degrees, which greatly improved his mood.

Opening the "Pupil of Destiny" identification gloves, although he had been mentally prepared, the result still made him inhale secretly.

System Prompt: High-level magic equipment has been found, and the appraisal report is as follows.

・+2 Iron Glove with Spike "Bloody Smile"

The barbed iron gloves are of unknown origin, with a silhouette of a girl engraved on the back of their palms, and smiling cherry lips showing sharp fangs.

Faction: Evil

Hit: +2

Damage: 1d4+2, +1d6 lifesteal

Equipment Effect: Strength +2 Blasphemy Bonus, Charisma +2 Blasphemy Bonus

Lifesteal: Deals an additional 1d6 damage to living creatures and heals self.

Storage: Each glove comes with a storage compartment for 1 item for quick access.

Wearing the "bloody smile", Roland felt a mysterious energy flow into his body through his hands, making him feel energetic. The system panel gives a more intuitive explanation, with the Strength stat increased to 26 and Charisma increased to 22.

+2 for each of the two stats is admittedly rare, and what makes Roland even happier is that the bonus type is a relatively rare "blasphemy". As we all know, the attribute bonus of the same type cannot be stacked, for example, his Giant Belt +6 strength "Enhancement" bonus, and Bloom's Ogre Glove +2 Strength is also an "Enhanced" bonus, the two cannot be stacked, if you wear the above two magic equipment at the same time, only the Giant Belt with a higher bonus can play a role.

The good thing about Bloody Smile is that the stat bonus it provides is "Blasphemy", which is a bonus that only evil faction creatures can enjoy, and can be stacked with their Giant Power Belt, which they would not be able to wear if they didn't have the Voter ability "Special Faction".

The "Bloody Smile" can be used as a melee weapon, +2 enhancement modifiers ensure its lethality, and the vampire 1d6 is the icing on the cake, but these are not important, unless forced to do so, Roland will not choose to fight empty-handed, the important thing is that each glove comes with a small storage space, which can hold weapons, shields, scrolls, wands, potions, etc., and can quickly change weapons and take items during combat, which derives many clever tactics, which is the greatest value of "Bloody Smile".

Having experienced the benefits of this pair of gloves, Roland couldn't help but wonder and looked Veronica up and down.

The female ninja wears refined leather armor and uses refined ninja knives, the so-called "refined" is just a slightly stronger grade than ordinary goods, not even magic equipment, but giving quasi-legendary equipment to people who meet for the first time is too generous.

Veronica's claim to thank him for his "saving grace" is an exaggeration, as Roland is well aware that she can escape the gnoll leader without taking action.

Not to mention any faction conflicts. Yes, Veronica is shown to belong to the "Neutral Good" faction and is not normally able to wear the "Bloody Smile" of the evil faction, but don't forget that she is a ninja.

Ninja is a special kind of thief, and she has all the skills that thieves have, including "using magic devices", and she can simulate any camp with high skills, so this restriction is completely useless for her.

"This glove is a quasi-legendary piece of equipment, why don't you keep it for yourself?" Since he couldn't figure it out, Roland simply asked Veronica directly.

Veronica was more frank than he expected, raising a pair of white slender hands and shaking at him, her pretty little face full of grievances: "You think I don't want to keep it for myself?" It's a pity that the iron gloves are too heavy, not to mention the thorns, which seriously hinders me from exerting my skills, so I have no choice but to cut my love. ”

Roland had never seen a thief wearing iron gloves, and thought to herself that this pair of gloves would indeed affect her skills in stealing chickens and dogs.
