Chapter 54: The Flame Cover

The flames danced between the fingers, and the flickering shadows illuminated the cozy room with a strange feeling.

Yang Hao looked at the ore in his hand, his brows tightened, and he slammed into the floor, and the ore with a soft texture was instantly torn apart.

"Since the whole piece is too exciting, let's try to grind it into powder." Yang Hao has always been dissatisfied with his progress in learning witchcraft, and he thinks that for the sake of witchcraft, he can take some risks appropriately.

Fortunately, the ore is very stable, and there are no moths that explode or anything.

Yang Hao collects the gravel, carefully grinds it into powder, and divides the powder into small portions (1 gram).

Then start with one test, add one at a time, and finally Yang Hao tried 3 parts of powder is the best amount.

The flames were beating wildly, but they were still within Yang Hao's control, and he stared intently.

Gradually, as the temperature rises, the flame turns crimson.

"Ding, your Harek's High Flame has been raised to Rough, new entries have been added, please pay attention to check it out."

Yang Hao was awakened by the system's prompt, stopped practicing, and checked the latest witchcraft panel.

Hallek's High Flame (Rough Passage): An ancient secret technique that greatly increases the temperature of the flame and strengthens most fire-based sculpting sorcery, but it is not easy to learn.

Coarse Effect: +2 mana cost, increases the temperature of the flame to 600 degrees. High temperatures can set most organisms on fire. Proficiency: 5/500.

There are also detailed instructions on the ignition system

Ignite: Using any fire-based sculptor will give the target a layer of ignition effect, -1 HP/sec for 3 seconds, and within 3 seconds, it will be attacked again by fire-based sculpting sorcery, with a damage bonus of 10%, and after reaching 3 stacks, a blasting effect will be formed, dealing 6 points of aoE witchcraft damage, and the number of stacks will be reset to zero.

Yang Hao: "..."It's amazing my brother, but how can I stack it to 3 layers?"

Yang Hao is very depressed now, and he has spent a lot of effort to learn the witchcraft, and he actually has a feeling of chicken ribs.

"Forget it, let's go and practice swords." Yang Hao decided to go to the practice room to relieve his mood.

….

At 6 o'clock the next day, Yang Hao came out of the practice room refreshed, he felt that his whirlwind swordsmanship had reached a bottleneck and was about to be upgraded, but when the time came, he was kicked out.

Today is an important day, the first team activity after the establishment of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group, catching mounts.

Yang Hao had long coveted Xiaoxue's mount, but he didn't look close to nature at all, and the mount creatures ignored him.

He wasn't here to consult with them today, and the mercenary group decided to organize a hunt to capture the mount creatures with the ogre's stone chains.

This throwing prop will explode almost every ogre, but the one of the ogre warriors is a little better.

There are many types of mount creatures, each with its own characteristics.

Some are based on endurance, others are based on speed, and some are based on weight.

Yang Hao's chosen mount creature is a flame coyote with stamina as the main thing and speed as the supplement.

It is a huge species of wolf that lives in the forest, and although its name sounds very lethal, it is in fact not very aggressive, and it is an omnivorous creature, usually feeding on wild fruits and certain weak mammals.

The wide range of their diets allows these coyotes to have an adequate source of food, so they are generally large and suitable as mounts.

The coyotes have black, yellow, and blue coats, and their limbs are accompanied by flame-like patterns, which is why they get their name.

It was still divided into three teams according to the previous grouping, and the first and second teams were responsible for driving the flame coyote to the small slope where the third team was ambushing.

The action begins.

….

The outer part of the Black Forest is the habitat of the coyote, there are no terrifying and dangerous creatures here, only a group of two-legged creatures that can't catch up with them, the food is abundant, the climate is pleasant, it is simply a paradise for the coyote to survive.

A yellow-skinned coyote was looking for something in the grass, and suddenly its hind legs tensed and scurried into the waist-high grass.

After the grass shook for a moment, the Yan Coyote came out again, but it was just a grass rabbit in its mouth, motionless, obviously having lost its breath.

Just as it was about to feast, several two-legged creatures with fangs and claws and screaming screamed from the darkness.

Life experience has taught it that it can't afford to mess with these creatures, so it can only reluctantly abandon its newly arrived prey and start running for its life.

The simple wolf thinks about one thing: will the prey still be here when he comes back?

It quickly shook off the two-legged creatures behind it, and when it let down its guard that day, hesitating to go back and see, several more two-legged creatures appeared, and it had to continue to run.

Running, running, it noticed that there were many of its kind joining it, and the two-legged creatures completely blocked the back path, and they could only run up a small hill where there were no two-legged creatures.

Halfway up the slope, it saw new two-legged creatures appear on the top of the slope, and they were waving strange ropes on their hands, and the coyote instinctively felt dangerous, but it was too late.

The climb slowed them down, and in the face of the stone chain chains thrown by the third team in ambush, the fire coyotes were powerless to dodge and were hit one after another.

"Brother Hao, I've caught them, there are 12 in this batch." Cheng Fat said excitedly, he has always been very concerned about the matter of the mount, thinking: I can finally pull the wind.

"Come on, come on, you're welcome, hurry up and get on the collar." Yang Hao saw that everyone was a little humble, and said: "Everyone hurry up, there is no need to let it, everyone has a share, it's just a matter of time." ”

Four hours in the morning, Yang Hao and they were spent in the forest, and when he walked out of the forest, he rode a black flame coyote, followed by more than 20 players riding the same kind of mount, and suddenly attracted another wave of eyes.

Although the fat man tried his best to pretend to be indifferent and serious, the smile on his face was too obvious, so it looked strange.

At the end of the event, everyone dispersed.

Yang Hao had to go to the Baron's Mansion to hand in the task, and it was indeed much more convenient to have a mount to hurry, and he arrived at the luxurious Baron's Mansion in 10 minutes.

Yang Hao was about to ask the guards to report it, but was told that Isabella was not in the Baron's Palace.

He continued to ask where Isabella was, but the guards did not answer Yang Hao, obviously they could not easily disclose the whereabouts of the main family.

Yang Hao couldn't help it, and when he was about to come back next time, Isabella's servant James appeared, settled the task for Yang Hao, and said that the young lady was very satisfied with his performance.

Yang Hao: "..."Satisfied and don't give a reward, it's really picky!"

The two were talking, but something changed in the baron's house.

A boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, hugging each other, walked out proudly.

James immediately stooped and saluted, unusually respectful.

Yang Hao didn't understand the reason, and looked at the boy.

"You.. Is that Geralt? It looks weak. The boy didn't know Yang Hao from nowhere, but he certainly didn't make a good impression.

Yang Hao was not angry with the bear child, he guessed that this should be Isabella's younger brother, the young master of the Baron's Mansion.

Don't look at his age, the sour smell of the nobles is a lot.

Seeing that Yang Hao didn't speak, the boy didn't care, and sneered: "My useless sister, I don't know what kind of madness she is, she actually took the initiative to ask to manage the place where birds don't." Mr. Geralt, do you say there's anything special there? ”

"No, young master, it's just a wasteland."

Yang Hao: "..."Joke, if you want to say it's a treasure land, this kid will definitely have to rob me." Besides, dealing with Isabella is much easier than dealing with this kid.

"Really? Hehe, my sister is really useless. ”

Yang Hao didn't want to know about the bad things inside the aristocratic family, and said a few perfunctory words, the boy may have lost interest in him, and turned around and left arrogantly.

Riding on the back of the black bean (the name of the Yan Coyote), Yang Hao shook the money bag in his hand and smiled with satisfaction.

Soon the experience reward of the mission was issued, and Yang Hao was successfully upgraded to level 6.

"Ding, congratulations on reaching level 6, strength +0.1, agility +0.1, constitution +0.1, spirit +0.1, intelligence +0.1."

Without waiting for Yang Hao to open the panel, the system prompt sounded again.

"Ding, you've completed your second study of fire-based sculption sorcery, please choose a new sorcery."

Witchcraft was always a top priority, and Yang Hao nervously looked at what options were available.

Just after browsing it, Yang Hao immediately made a decision.

There was a witchcraft that was too important to him and had to be taken.

Flame Cover

Description: The player wraps himself in the Ring of Fire, and the next witchcraft damage will be absorbed in full, and deal continuous damage to nearby enemies, and the damage effect will be lost when the absorbed damage exceeds the upper limit.

Effect: Consumes 10 mana to summon a flame shroud that lasts for 8 seconds, absorbs 10 sorcery damage and inflicts 1*(Spirit) HP/s burns to enemies within 4 meters.

This witchcraft was far stronger than the other two, and Yang Hao suspected that this was a powerful witchcraft he had obtained after learning the high-temperature flame of the rough-level Harek.

This proves that powerful witchcraft requires preconditions.

Of course, there is another important reason why Yang Hao chose this witchcraft, that is, the continuous burn of the fire cover is too important.

It works perfectly with Yang Hao's newly acquired Ignite trait, and as long as the enemy doesn't kill it immediately after opening the Flame Cover, the blasting effect will definitely be triggered after 3 seconds, causing a lot of AOE damage.

Yang Hao felt that he could now do without bombs and directly rely on the fire cover group to brush the killing scorpion, because he was now a humanoid self-propelled bomb.

Yang Hao didn't know why he was able to draw this skill, maybe it was pure luck, or maybe it was the result of the system's calculations.

But no matter what, Yang Hao felt that he had taken off and had to do something big.

To put it simply, it's about making big news.

So he turned on the group chat mode of the mercenary group and said, "Brothers, should we find some business?" ”

"Brother Hao, what do you mean?" Cheng Fat Man didn't understand, "What do you mean by finding some business?" ”

"Needless to say, Brother Hao wants to camp again." The gale directly broke Yang Hao's mind, and he was also very concerned about this matter.
