Chapter 40: New Attributes
Using the squad leader and small boss under his separate control, Rhodes has been keeping an eye on the direction of the army and trying to make sure that the general can accurately drop the trap and be accidentally killed.
Judging from the situation of the march, because the reconnaissance vehicle was discovered and lost contact, the general guessed that the bandits might increase their vigilance, so the general's marching speed was very slow, and it was very likely that the bandits would be all soldiers, so as to achieve the purpose of consuming the bandits' physical strength.
It was not until dawn the next day that the general's marching procession camped in place, and after living and cooking, most of the soldiers slept directly with their clothes, and it seemed that the general was no longer ready to march during the day.
Rhodes himself stayed in the barracks, not caring about Nice's staring, and every day he either discussed knowledge with Alyssa, or Alyssa teased Tom, and Tom was happy to cooperate.
Among them, there are many discussions on the knowledge of textbooks, Alyssa is worthy of being the chief student of the aristocracy, and Alyssa, who has read the family collection, has a depth of knowledge far beyond Rhodes, which can be said to be a great benefit.
For Rod, the criteria for judging sword pressure and mana power have finally been partially improved, although the total amount of sword pressure and mana power has still not been obtained, it is no longer considered blind.
The attribute bar in the lower left corner of Rhodes' vision changed instantly, and behind the four attributes, two attributes appeared, namely the depth of sword pressure and the depth of mana, both of which were 10 points.
Depth, as the name suggests, refers to the achievement achieved in both.
The depth and total amount of sword pressure or magic power are like the relationship between physique and physical strength, physique is the strength of the body as a whole, and physical strength is the energy that supports the body's actions, and the two complement each other and are indispensable.
If you have a physical constitution, you will not be able to exert it because of your lack of physical strength, and if you have physical strength, you will be unable to exert it because of your low physical fitness.
The same is true of the relationship between depth and total amount, which is similar to physique, and total is similar to physical strength.
It's just that the physical strength, the total amount of sword pressure and the total amount of mana are relatively obscure and difficult to judge, even if they are tested by sophisticated facilities, they can only get an approximate range, but there is no way to get a detailed value.
The sword pressure and magic power in the ability represent the comprehensive mastery, which is an indicator of the depth and total amount of coordination, and is also a standard for what degree can be achieved.
After deciding on the other two names, Rhodes also changed the names of sword pressure and magic power in his ability, renaming them respectively, sword pressure mastery and magic mastery.
Of course, in fact, according to the literal translation of the other world, sword pressure should be simply translated as the energy generated by the body, but the name is too long, so it was translated as sword pressure by Rod, because he is good at using a big sword, if Rods is a martial artist, he will definitely be named Douqi.
After thinking about it, Rhodes added a new identifier to the attribute interface, and then, the new interface was re-displayed in the corner of the field of view.
Attributes: Strength: 15, Constitution 15, Agility 11, Speed 10, Sword Pressure Depth 10, Mana Depth 10
Abilities: Sword Pressure Mastery (Basic), Mana Mastery (Beginner 2nd Class), Tough Skin (+0/Beginner 1st Class), Strong Body (+0/Basic)
Rune: Mana Control Rune (Beginner 3rd Class)
Rod nodded with satisfaction, although the total amount of mana has not yet appeared in the attribute interface, as long as he enters the royal capital and uses the facilities of the academy, he will naturally be able to draw conclusions, or more simply, directly use Alyssa's total amount of mana to bring in the method.
For sword pressure and magic, Rhodes also intends to perform the opposite trick.
Similar to physical weakness, human beings are born without magic power or sword pressure, so they do not have any advantage in terms of total amount, so compared to the total amount, human beings should pay more attention to deep cultivation, which is the key content mentioned in the textbook.
This is also the reason why someone can kill powerful Warcraft, although the total amount of magic power of Warcraft far exceeds that of humans, but the gap in depth makes it possible for humans to kill Warcraft.
In fact, according to the textbooks, a human with pure blood can never possess magic in the body, and if you want to cast a spell, you can only rely on external objects, such as magic wands or spellcasting materials.
And only half-blood humans have magic in their bodies, such as Alyssa and Rod.
Alyssa's ancestor is said to have a non-human ancestor, which is why she has innate magical powers, and the strengthening secret art is also said to have originated from that ancestor, according to Alyssa's own words, the reason why their family has become a fiefdom nobleman is due to the excellent bloodline from that ancestor.
The same is true of Rhodes himself, the original owner's body also has magical powers, but it is very thin. After Rhodes possessed and fused with the original owner, the magic carried by the demon's body greatly increased the mana of the body.
It is also because there is no magic power limit, which makes pure-blooded humans have an unparalleled advantage in their cultivation in terms of magic depth. Correspondingly, natural spellcasters like Rod and Alyssa are much more difficult.
The two understand the principle of combining work and rest, after studying for a long time, they are not studying in the afternoon, but engaged in actual combat and play, the two do not look like they are in the barracks, but like they are on vacation, and occasionally there are soldiers who can't see it, and they will leave with an ugly face under the persuasion of their companions, obviously not wanting to provoke Alyssa, the aristocratic lady.
Back in the tent, sitting cross-legged on the bed, it seems that he is meditating with his eyes closed, but in fact he is remotely controlling the two puppets, the army has been reopened in the evening, and the small leader of the bandits is also assembling the magic crystal under the order of the big leader, which looks like a bomb.
The reason why the reconnaissance car was blown up last night was also the role played by the magic crystal, and the leader of the bandits very decisively buried a magic crystal after discovering the reconnaissance car, and the effect was also unexpectedly good, and the reconnaissance car was directly blown up.
Although it is simple and crude, and the way it is used is very luxurious, if it is seen by the mage of the academy, it will definitely be knocked on the head, but it is really effective, isn't it?
For the bandit leader, his current goal is to kill the general and save his life, the gold coins he grabbed are enough to live for a lifetime, magic crystals are always foreign objects, and if used well, they can bring light, and if they are not used, they are just a bunch of useless stones.
The magic crystal made into the bomb was buried by the bandit leader himself, and the only cannon was also erected in the town square as a device for throwing the magic crystal bomb.
The general's march was very planned, in the middle of the night, the soldiers who had slept well during the day were in good spirits, while the bandits who had lived happily for a day in the town were in low spirits, and the happy life of the past two days made many bandits linger, and when they slept, they thought about the little beauty in the gold cave, not the possible threat.
Under normal circumstances, the general may really be able to enter the town effortlessly, and then eliminate the main force of the bandits without bloodshed, but this time not only is the big leader of the bandits very vigilant, but Rhodes also sent a small leader to inform the big leader in a timely manner, thanks to the discovery of the reconnaissance vehicle yesterday, this time he also got the trust of the big leader.
When he woke up his subordinates with the prestige of the big leader, the bandit minions in charge of reconnaissance also vaguely saw the shadow of the army coming.
This time, in order to ensure the speed and concealment of the march, the people brought out by the general are all elite in the army, and the professionalism is naturally needless to say, but the dark night will inevitably obscure the vision.
And after being reminded by the big leader, after seeing the shadow of the enemy, the bandit minions strode back to the town directly and reported the situation, all the minions in charge of reconnaissance were like this, and they left when they saw the shadow, not caring whether it was the kingdom army or not.
Seeing the decision of the bandit leader with his own eyes, Rod nodded secretly, this is the best result, it is best not to use the back hand, so that he does not have to get rid of Nice himself, and the bandit leader will naturally make trouble for Nice.
