Chapter 37 Invitation to Gamble

[Enlightenment]: When using the knife technique, the [Epiphany] mode that lasts for three minutes is randomly turned on, and practicing the knife in the Epiphany mode can further comprehend the moves and realm.

This talent can be strengthened by using the Knife Technique.

[Slash]: When using the knife technique, the [Slash] effect will appear randomly at a rate of one-tenth. Slash breaks through all of your opponent's defenses and doubles the destructive power of the knife based on your proficiency.

This talent can be strengthened by using the Knife Technique.

…

Both of these talents are very powerful, and through [Enlightenment Knife], you can better learn more sword skills, which is very helpful for your own progress. And [Knife Slash] is a very powerful offensive method, even if it is just a random chop, at least one out of ten slashes is a slash, and the effect of slashing ignoring defense is very terrifying.

Which one should you choose?

Bai Yan analyzed it for a long time before he reluctantly chose [Wu Dao].

He considered that what he lacked at the moment was the method and skill of using the knife, not the power of the knife, and although the slashing effect was considerable, it was actually uncontrollable. Uncontrollable power is not really his own power, just like the crow step, only when it is really critical, he will use it like a gamble.

The randomness of the sword is completely acceptable, he practices the knife at least five thousand times a day, and he can always trigger one or two times. As for the power of the sword technique, he can completely replace it temporarily with the [Body and Sword Combination] in the star chart, and the body and knife combination that combines the sword technique with the flying posture is quite powerful.

Bai Yan clicked [Wu Dao].

System Prompt: You have selected the [Sword] talent, and this choice cannot be changed unless there is a special opportunity.

Bai Yan's original [Sword] talent was raised to the second order, and he changed from "strengthening the power of the sword" at the beginning to "improving the understanding of the way of the sword and strengthening the power of the sword".

The advancement of talent gave Bai Yan a lot of encouragement, and Bai Yan closed his eyes and began to regain his strength with the star map.

Gensokyo time has already entered the middle of the night, and the night is still too dangerous for players at this time, most of the players at this time are looking for a place to settle down in various places in the people, or drinking and bragging, or chatting at night, and there are also some tasks that can only be done at night, in short, waiting for dawn.

And in the training ground, Bai Yan was sweating like rain.

He doesn't care about the passage of time, the physical exertion can also be supplemented by intermittent rest, as for the mental fatigue? Bai Yan is now completely in euphoria, there is no such thing at all.

The lights at Training Ground 7 were on all the time.

A slender figure closed the door to the eleventh training ground and walked all the way to the exit.

It was already late at night, but when the figure passed by the seventh training ground, he found that the lights were still on.

She looked at the nameplate hanging on the door - No. 7 Training Ground, in use, user: Bai Yanfei.

"White, speech, fly."

The faint sound was ethereal, and the ethereal feeling was a bit less human.

But if it's not human, why is there a training ground in humans?

She clenched her fists, stared at Bai Yanfei's three words for a while, and then turned to leave

―――――――――――

On the afternoon of the second day, Bai Yan left the training ground.

The time for picking up the knife agreed with the blacksmith master Inhata was approaching, so Bai Yan calculated the time and headed for the lost bamboo forest.

Last night's training was not small, Bai Yan triggered a total of five [Epiphany] states, although three times were nothing, but the other two really benefited Bai Yan a lot.

One of them, he chopped bamboo from all angles, and suddenly entered a state of epiphany, and then slashed out eight knives in a row, and these eight knives went down, and Bai Yan's whole person felt as if he had been emptied. After that, I heard the system prompt.

System prompt: In the state of epiphany, you comprehend the sword technique [Empty Bamboo Eight Links].

【Empty Bamboo Eight Companies】

Self-created.

Quality: Orange.

Player Bai Yanfei's self-created knife technique, a special knife technique generated by the experience accumulated from chopping bamboo for a long time.

If you can hit an enemy from different angles more than four times, you will gain a massive increase in movement speed for five seconds.

The cumulative time of the number of times is 30 seconds, the number of times is refreshed after 30 seconds, and the number of times is refreshed immediately after the effect is triggered.

No cooldown.

The quality of the sword technique is divided according to the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and the orange quality of the empty bamboo eight companies is a set of quite good offensive knife techniques that Bai Yan summed up after entering the state of epiphany after long-term training. The multi-angle attack, as well as the explosive speed bonus, helped Bai Yan break through the embarrassing situation of slashing indiscriminately.

Another time, it happened when I was about to leave the training ground, and somehow I entered an epiphany state, and then I heard a system prompt.

System prompt: You are in a state of epiphany, comprehending the sword intent [Mirror Stopping Water].

【Spiegel Water Stop】

Knife intent.

Player Bai Yanfei comprehends the knife intent according to his own understanding of the knife.

Immerse your mind in a state of water and no waves, see your opponent's weaknesses, and if you can break it, deal extra damage and speed up your own regeneration.

Note that this weakness is only the opponent's weakness against your sword, not your opponent's hit.

Weaknesses change position from time to time, and the timing and location of their appearance and change are random.

The knife intent mirror stops the water, how to say it, Bai Yan can't give it a clear evaluation of its advantages and disadvantages, too strong randomness is its disadvantage, but the effect of breaking through weaknesses to cause extra damage and return to qi is quite good, it can only be said that it will be tested in actual combat.

Overall, these two epiphanies were not bad, and Bai Yan was very satisfied with his decision to choose Wudao.

The location of the Lost Bamboo Forest is not far from Renli, and about an hour later, Bai Yan arrived in front of the Bamboo Forest. After going in again, I finally saw the signboard of the Shenwei blacksmith shop.

The muscular rabbit-eared master with a handsome face was shaking the big pu fan and resting on the Taishi chair, but his ears were very smart, and he had already heard Bai Yan's movement coming here, and as soon as Bai Yan saw the eaves of the blacksmith shop, the sound of the bronze bell of Yinwan Wei rang out.

"White boy!"

Bai Yan heard Inaba call him, sped up and flew close to him, and then tried to squint his eyes and hold back a smile without looking at him.

"Master, I'm here to get the knife, has the knife been forged?" He asked.

With a breakthrough and advancement in swordsmanship, Bai Yan naturally began to yearn for a good knife.

"Okay, of course, it's good." Inhata said lightly.

Bai Yanxi said: "Then ask the master to give me a knife." ”

Thinking of the power of Li Tiangong's two arrows, Bai Yan began to look forward to his knife.

"But... White boy, let me ask you, do you want to go further? ”

"What does the master mean?"

Inhanwei's expression changed, and Bai Yan saw his rabbit ears stand up suddenly.

"I've forged your sword, you can get your hands on it now. But! I have a good material in my hand, and once it is melted into the knife, it will immediately be pulled from the eighth grade to the seventh grade, and I ask you, do you want it or not? ”

Bai Yanqi said: "Why don't you want such a good thing as promotion?" ”

Inhata nodded and said, "Okay, if you want it, you have to promise me one condition." ”

"You say."

"I mentioned to you once before that there was a man who, like you, came to me to collect materials and wanted to forge a weapon. Now your weapons are all in the eighth-grade completion state, and you have each done two missions, and the amount with me is the same. But I only have one precious material in my hand, and it's not good to give it to anyone alone. So..."

"So?" Bai Yan frowned.

Inhata said in a deep voice: "Bet on the opportunity to ascend, and the two of you will have an official duel according to the rules of Gensokyo!" ”
