When rushing to the location of the bandit gang where the caster is located, Rhodes also uses a total of 600 energy to strengthen himself.

Considering that strengthening the constitution can not only increase all aspects of ability, but also enhance physical strength and defense, so Rhodes chose to prioritize strengthening the constitution, and it should be the same as the game, the constitution will change qualitatively after reaching a certain limit.

It's just that when he used 400 points of energy to increase his physique to 15 points, there was an unexpected muscle tearing sensation, a very real pain feeling, and although it only lasted for a few seconds, Rod was already sweating profusely.

As the pain subsided, Rhodes was pleasantly surprised to find that 15 points were more defenses than 11 to 14 points combined, and there was a strange change in his feelings.

It's like a change in sword pressure from nothing, and the eyes can see clearly, because there is no measurement and it is not marked, but this feeling is familiar to Rod because he has learned about it in school.

With a thought, he took out the dagger scraped from the cottage and stabbed it directly into his skin, and after a crisp sound, Rod's skin was intact, but the dagger he scraped was squeezed into two by the force.

Sure enough, Rod was sure that when he was in school, he learned that after the human body is exercised to a certain extent, there will be wonderful changes, which are very special, which can make the body invulnerable, or infinitely powerful, or soft and boneless, or walking like flying, or unforgettable.

Now it seems that the 15-point attribute should be a change, that is, this is the 'strong skin' ability that the school has explained, and it is a physical change similar to invulnerability.

Thinking like this, there was an instant change in the field of vision, and a new line appeared under the original attribute bar.

Strength: 12, Constitution 15, Agility 10, Speed 10

Sword Pressure (??? ), mana (??? ), Tough Skin (+0/??? ）

Needless to say, sword pressure and magic power have existed in the body for a long time, but they have not yet obtained a general standard, and it is impossible to accurately determine the data.

Tough Skins are newly acquired abilities, and +0 is the level of weapons that can be defended, which is a common standard across the continent.

+0 means that all common weapons, from kitchen knives to weapons commonly used by adventurers and mercenaries, belong to this list, and only weapons such as the kingdom-standard greatsword have a level of +1 or higher.

In other words, Rhodes is immune to all ordinary weapons throughout his body, and unless these weapons are used by powerful professionals, it is absolutely impossible to harm Rhodes at this time.

As for the question mark at the back, it is the damage reduction ability of Rod's body after being broken through the defense at this time, but it is mainly effective for +0, such as the damage that can be reduced after being broken through the defense by a powerful professional with a strong sword pressure attached to a +0 weapon.

Although it also has an effect on weapons above +1, the effect is much weaker, and it is only the difference between a one-knife slash and a two-slash slash.

When Rod wanted to strengthen his physique attribute again, 200 points were really not enough, and obviously as his physique increased, the energy needed for strengthening was also increasing.

In the end, after hesitating for a while, although Rod wanted to strengthen his strength, but considering that he would have to face the caster later, he decisively chose agility, strengthened agility to 11 points, and changed his energy to 0 points again.

This is Rhodes's own experience at school, when facing spellcasters, speed often does not have much effect, because most spells have the ability to track, and the speed is faster than the speed of human running, and only agility can have an effect at this time, using fine movements to guide spells to pass or change the attack part.

After being strengthened, Rod's explosiveness was even better, and it didn't take long for him to find Tom's position, which was halfway up the mountain, not a short distance from the tavern.

Rhodes' eyes could see the aura of the bandits, and the bandits were already panicked at this time, and their breath was full of fear and regret, not only for Rhodes, but also for the man they were surrounded by.

Sensing Rod, Tom quietly came to Rod's side.

"Master, most of this group of bandits have been killed by my sneak attack, and now there are only three guards and the spellcaster left, and I can't sneak close to the spellcaster."

"Good job, just hold off the bandits."

Rod glanced at Tom and found that his Constitution and Speed had increased by 1 each, to 12 and 13 respectively, which was supposed to be enhanced by Devouring the Bandits.

However, Tom is a mad demon, a low-level demon belonging to the small demon species, so the absorption ability is relatively poor, the attribute growth rate is not only slow, but also has a growth bottleneck, even if he has infinite energy, he can't increase too many attributes at one time, which is a common defect of low-level demons.

Rod and Tom sneaked quietly, didn't get too close, and looked at the four people from a distance, the three guards were all ordinary people with strong bodies, with five or six attributes, so there was nothing to worry about.

Rhodes focused on the spellcaster.

The attribute is not high, just reaching the standard of a professional with 10 points, but the magic power in his body is surging, which is much stronger than the half-baked man of Rod, and unless Rod's energy is converted into magic, it will definitely not be able to compare to the opponent's magic power.

Of course, Rhodes will not attack the enemy's strengths with his own shortness, and his current advantage is a strong constitution and enchanted full-body armor, and his hole card is a left arm that can devour energy, which is enough to kill this spellcaster.

Because judging from the magic power, the other party is just an apprentice-level natural spellcaster, and the enchanted whole body armor is enough to resist the opponent's spells.

"You can help me hold the caster for a while, and I will attack those three guards and finally kill the caster."

Rod's plan was simple and crude, and he knew from the memory of the bandit boss that his younger brother was a naturally awakened spellcaster, that is, a natural spellcaster.

Natural spellcasters have a strong casting advantage, but the shortcomings are equally obvious, they suddenly awaken without systematic education, they often do not have comprehensiveness, and the other party only learns a lethal spell.

"Yes, master, that spellcaster has just enhanced his perception with magic power, as long as I pretend to be close, I will be discovered by the other party, and with the other party's state, I will definitely use the spell directly."

With that, Tom sneaked to the other side, cautiously sneaking in the direction of the caster.

The caster suddenly let out a loud cry and made some kind of gesture with his hands on his chest, and a thick, cold-smelling pillar of frost appeared out of thin air and shot at the location where Tom was sneaking.

With a bang, Tom immediately dodged the frost pillar, and the ground where he was standing instantly froze into a large patch of frost, which looked crystal clear like a handicraft.

The three guards immediately looked nervously in Tom's direction, raising the sword in their hands, full of uncontrollable fear.

At this moment, Rod suddenly pulled out the big sword behind his back, exerted the sword pressure with all his might, and most of the half-moon slash flew towards the three of them at great speed, and with a bang, the three of them were cut off, and the muscles of Rode's legs bulged, and suddenly burst out with huge power, and in a blink of an eye, he had come behind the spellcaster.

The spellcaster was in danger, seeing Tom's miss, and hearing the screams behind him, he knew that something was wrong, and many years of life and death experience made him pounce forward, first dodging most of the moon slash, and then falling to the ground like this, with a pinch of his hands, he turned around and pushed forward, and the target was Rhodes who rushed over.

A cruel smile appeared on the caster's face, the person who wanted to kill him with a sneak attack method was not only Rhodes, other enemies had also tried, he had already been familiar with the sneak attack method, he was confident, at such a close distance, the enemy would definitely not be able to dodge his spell.

Rhodes glanced at the spellcaster, his body shook, and in a fraction of a second, the part facing the spell had changed from his chest to his left arm, and suddenly turned into a black and red giant claw, grabbing at the attacking frost pillar, the magic energy was devoured and absorbed by the left arm, and the frost breath was blocked by the enchanted whole body armor, and Rhodes was unharmed.

Finally, he waved the big sword in his hand and cut off the caster's head with a single sword, and the whole process was done in one go, all in Rhodes's calculations.
