Chapter 12: Mandarin Duck Feet
"Ding, it has detected that the player's skill Poke Foot (Mystic) (Silver) level 2 proficiency has reached 100%, and your Poke Foot skill has been upgraded to level 3. Get a small boost to your Poke Foot combat skills. ”
"Ding, detected that the player's skill Poke Foot (Secret Art) has been increased to level 3, your agility +0.3, strength +0.2, and physique +0.2..."
"Ding, it has been detected that the player's skill Poke Foot (Arcane Art) has been increased to level 3, and the cost of improving Fighting Mastery to Fighting Expert has been reduced. You can spend 14 potential points and 2,800 Copper Destiny coins to upgrade your combat mastery to combat expert, and your combat skills will be greatly improved..."
When the system prompt sounded, Qiao Mai hadn't even completely fallen to the ground. The increase in attributes brought about by skill improvement is completed almost instantly. Qiao Mai, who was blessed by the nine-character mantra, had an infinite agility attribute approaching 9 points.
Compared to the cost of upgrading to Combat Mastery, the potential points and Destiny Copper Coins required to promote to Combat Specialist have skyrocketed several times. It's clear that upgrading character fighting to the expert level brings about quite a terrifying twist. It's like the Phantom Sword-Morgaka that Jo Mai encountered before. It was the only expert-level creature Jomai had encountered, and its terrifying swordsmanship had made Jomai suffer. Even now, if Qiao Mai goes head-to-head with the other party, he is not confident that he can win steadily.
Before Qiao Mai had time to think carefully about the various information revealed in the system prompt, an inexplicable flow of information suddenly emerged from the depths of his mind, occupying all of Qiao Mai's thoughts in an instant. Countless vague figures and words kept colliding and spinning in Qiao Mai's mind, making Qiao Mai lose his mind in an instant.
"Smack..."
"Whew, whew, whew..."
Qiao Mai, who lost his mind, couldn't sense how much time had passed, but at the moment when his head was about to hit the ground, he subconsciously supported the ground with both hands, and stood up with a beautiful forward flip.
Qiao Mai, who was completely awake, realized that the long sensory time he had just made for the space outside his body had only passed for less than a second. At least, the ironclad corpse that was kicked away by Qiao Mai was still in a state of confusion.
"Heh... Poke your feet..."
Qiao Mai, who has experienced it once, knows that it was the information transmission brought about by the poke upgrade just now. As a powerful silver-level secret art, the foot poke is much more complicated than Qiao Mai imagined, and similarly, it is also much more powerful.
As an ancient boxing technique inherited in China for nearly 1,000 years, there are countless various moves and punches contained in the poke foot. Just the parts of the leg attack and the power generation skills are divided into hundreds of moves with different styles. Not to mention, because of the different understandings of the concept of poking feet, there are more than a dozen genres completely divided. Each genre has a completely different concept for the same move. Two people who also use poke feet may use completely different effects.
Because it is completely self-learned, the system stuffs all the knowledge related to poking feet into Qiao Mai's brain. Every time Qiao Mai raises his Poke Foot by one level, he will unblock some of his experience and moves. It's just that this information is a bit too much for Qiao Mai.
Until now, Qiao Mai fully understands why Song Tiewu, who is the descendant of the Three Emperors Cannon Hammer lineage, has been in a crippled state for the Three Emperors Cannon Hammer Fist, which has been inherited for hundreds of years. Just their inheritance is not a complete Three Emperors Cannon Hammer at all. Therefore, as a secret technique of the same silver rank, Iron Dance could only be upgraded to level 11.
"Mandarin duck feet..."
This is the only poke move that Qiao Mai has comprehended and remembered in the huge flow of information just now. Similarly, this is also the first poke kick attack move that Qiao Mai has obtained, and it belongs to the same set of techniques as the Mandarin Duck Step that he comprehended when he was promoted to level 2 before.
In the front, all of the attacks used by Qiao Mai were just randomly intercepted from the huge system of foot poking with his combat mastery. Except for his own shouting of distinction, the system will not admit it at all, and will not show detailed data, and there will be no additional effects at all. It can only slightly increase Qiao Mai's attribute play ratio, so that every time he attacks, he can reach the maximum amount of power he can exert.
And the mandarin duck feet that have just been comprehended, connected with the mandarin duck steps that have been comprehended before, belong to the skills recognized by the system, and are even perfectly digitized by the system.
Poke Foot (Secret Art) Silver
Level: 3/15 (1% progress)
In addition to giving you powerful fighting skills, the powerful martial arts practiced over the years also give your body additional strengthening abilities in battle.
Using the poke foot will make your stamina exerted, adding an additional 5 points/min. The unique technique of Poke Foot allows you to add additional stats when facing enemies:
+1 Evasion, +1 hitstun, +1 Block
For every 3 levels of Poke Foot Level, the three additional stats are +1 again.
Strength: For each level of your current Poke Kick, you gain +0.2 Physical Stats, +0.2 Physical Stats, and +0.3 Agility.
Additional Skill: Mandarin Duck Step - Mandarin Duck Foot
Mandarin Duck Step (Silver): A powerful fist step attached to the secret art, which can effectively confuse the enemy's senses. Both offense and defensive dodge are very powerful. Using this pace will cost you an additional amount of stamin, which is 3 points/minute.
Skill Effect: When cast, according to the level, an additional attribute - evasion is added. Current level 3 with an additional 2 points of evasion. For each 3rd level of Poke Kick, an additional dodge is added. This can be increased by up to 5 points.
Mandarin Duck Foot (Silver): A powerful attack move in the genre, the full name. Swap left and right, one step at a time, up to 9 feet in a row. And each kick will be more powerful than the last.
Skill Effect: When using the Mandarin Duck Foot, the special power mode can make your next kick power an additional +1, and this effect can be stacked. By the time of the ninth hit, gain +9 Kick Power.
The use of mandarin duck feet creates additional physical and energy expenditure. From the 1st to the 3rd kick, each attack consumes an additional 1 HP and STR. From the 4th to the 6th kick, each attack costs an additional 2 HP and energy. From the 7th to the 9th kick, each attack consumes an additional 3 HP and energy. When the character's stamina or stamina is less than 20%, they will not be able to use the Mandarin Duck Feet.
Negative states such as stun and freeze can interrupt the performance of the mandarin duck's feet.
Note: Additional skills cannot be leveled up.
Qiao Mai's eyes were glazed, looking at the extra part of his skill panel, completely incredulous. And powerful attributes completely dazzled his eyes. Especially the mandarin duck feet, the perverted attributes make Qiao Mai want to stop.
"Earned, earned... I'm making a lot of money..."
The bewildered Qiao Mai couldn't stop muttering with his saliva. This silver-level secret technique that he exchanged from the French knight uncle only cost him 1,000 Mandate Copper Coins. It's not just because the other party is not interested in martial arts at all. In the bubble world where information is scarce, secret art is too high-end. The average player will not be able to understand the preciousness of the secret arts, let alone the secret arts of the silver level. To put it bluntly, this skill is the biggest leak that Qiao Mai picked up after entering the game. It's much more cost-effective than killing dozens of champions.
If, after the French uncle enters the Gaia continent and learns about the preciousness of the secret art, will he regret hitting the wall?
Qiao Mai thought uneasily.
However, is it a bug that such a powerful skill would appear in the bubble world? Will it be wiped out by the system because of this in the future...
Qiao Mai, who was stunned by the huge surprise, became restless, this unexpected surprise was too big. At first, he only thought that Poke Foot would increase his stats when he upgraded, and he originally planned to wait until Poke Foot reached level 3, and then immediately summon the Hungry Ghost to besiege the steel plate iron armored corpse in front of him.
It's just that, it seems, is not needed at all now...
Arcane skills are a valuable resource that completely overrides normal skills. Compared to a single ordinary skill, a secret skill is equivalent to a complete power system, which can give any player a huge increase in strength. Even if it is the lowest-level black iron level secret art, the price is comparable to a silver-level equipment or skill, and the price is unimaginably expensive.
Something like a secret art really shouldn't appear in a bubble world, let alone a silver-level secret art. The appearance was entirely due to the luck of the French knights.
When you kill a champion and above, you will get an additional easter egg reward. This easter egg is a random item reward. Like the previous Pirate Warehouse, there is an exchange option, Gard's mechanical left eye plus 3000 Pirate Gold Coins, which can be exchanged for a precious Silver Pirate Chest. This chest can produce items with the lowest silver and highest gold tiers. You may be able to obtain a more precious gold-level secret art, or you may only be able to obtain an ordinary silver-level skill, or a silver-level ordinary equipment or item.
What can be opened depends entirely on personal luck, maybe when the hand is red, you can open something against the sky. And the dog--luck French knight, the hands are not ordinary red. Unexpectedly, in the bubble world, he opened a silver-level secret technique. It's just that he didn't know the value of this thing, so he gave it to Qiao Mai at an ultra-low price of 1,000 Destiny Copper Coins. That's less than one percent of the value of the skill itself.
The higher the level of the arcane skill, the more powerful the increased power will be. Qiao Mai recalled several moves in Song Tiewu's boxing technique, and there was no doubt that the terrifying power should be the incidental skill.
Only the third level has such a powerful move. So, when you move up to the higher level, what are the more powerful changes?
Meditation's Qiao Mai was looking forward to it.
