The sound of "clang" and "clang" was the sound made by the dark elves of the city as they dragged the siege tower with their monitor lizards. Although it had been turned into a large torch by the torrent of fiery oil, the siege tower made of metal did not succumb to the flames as easily as its surface counterparts.

This siege tower made of black iron and forged steel has been baptized by flames. Although the outer skin has fallen off one by one, the skeleton of the core still looks intact. Perhaps, in the eyes of the dark elves, after they dragged the wreckage back, the tinkering could continue to be used.

However, the Norhan army, which had managed to make that thing no longer threatened, would not allow the wreckage of the siege tower to be used again in the rest of the battle - even during this intermission, the throwing weapons continued to fly towards the behemoth they were pulling.

However, although such an attack successfully hindered the Dark Elves' movements, it was still difficult to shake the wreckage of the siege tower. Just when Barrett thought that the pitch-black steel pipes on the city's head would roar again, Mr. Barent, who had not been seen for a long time, actually appeared in his sight.

The tall dwarf was now wrapped in a stone slab - similar to the 'Dwarven Ancestor' Rielly had transformed into before. Fortunately, the petrified face still maintains its original contours, otherwise Barrett would really not recognize the previous leader!

Not only his body, but even the weapons in his hands were covered with a thick layer of rock shells. Surprisingly, though, this should have been a very heavy body. But there was an unexpected lightness - Mr. Barent, walking on the city walls, barely caused any shock.

"Bang-" With a loud bang, Mr. Barrant's raised war hammer slammed into the skeleton of the siege tower. The sound was so loud. Even Barrett, who had retreated to the second wall, felt like someone was drumming around his eardrums. The guards who came closer were all grinning - and one of the hapless ones was stunned by this.

Even the men who were affected by the wave became like this, and the skeleton of the siege tower, which was the main target, immediately fell apart with a "boom" sound after a shaking. The steel at the foot of the walls could still be used, but it would not take a day to turn them back into siege engines - and they would be much less strong unless they were rebuilt.

It seems that because they still failed to achieve their intended goal after playing two hole cards, the Dark Elves never launched any offensive on this day - it seems that it was not just the Norhan defenders who needed to be corrected. Even those dark elves couldn't stand such high-intensity continuous combat.

And at this time, Barrett finally had the opportunity to gather his companions together and talk. Only as soon as I met Claudia. Auditore couldn't help but complain: "Oh my God! You don't know how many wounds I've bandaged these days. As a result, I didn't eat much red meat after I went offline. ”

"Claudia, aren't you exaggerating, Clematis should have done more than you did. But they didn't complain much. Barrett, who leaned himself against the wall, said and yawned.

Claudia. Auditore pulled his friend by the hand: "Clematis, she just doesn't like to complain." ”

Wait until Barrett turns his gaze to Kleimatis. Bot's time. The other party didn't speak, and it looked like he was acquiescing to Claudia. Auditore said the same. Although it is still felt that Claudia. Auditore didn't tell the truth, but since the other didn't want to refute his friend's face, Barrett naturally couldn't say more.

"You are still busy, how can it be like I have been idle for the past few days, and my bones are almost moldy. The entire city gate reserve was not mobilized. can only hide in the hiding hole all day. "I just took a part-time job with the Anvil of the Stone Brave. Even when he talks, he becomes lazy.

Rielly retorted at this time: "Don't you guy, don't you say cool things, don't you see that we are all so busy that we hit the back of the head with our heels?" You guy, don't get cheap and sell well. Besides, if the gates are breached, I don't think you can stop it. ”

"That's it! We are not here to complain. By the way, I would like to tell you a few good news, after these few days of fighting, my experience is enough to upgrade. Speaking of this, Barrett accentuated his tone, "So those who have a chance need to work hard." The battlefield has always been the most experienced scene, and there is no other store in this village! ”

"You have to have that experience! With the exception of Barrett and Rielly, a few of us don't have the ability to quickly brush up experience on the battlefield. The halfling wanderer said and lay back.

Hearing this, Rielly was also quite angry: "I want to brush it with fireballs, but I have been using the magic to counter the dark elves' spells all day long. I almost threw up when I used it, not to mention. Poor experience......"

Although Barrett tried his best to save it, this meeting between the players inevitably turned into a grievance meeting. Wait for the noodle's belly to protest before stopping. And for Barrett. All he needs now is a long break to prepare for the next upgrade.

The next morning, as the character's level increased, the already overflowing experience pool was empty. At the same time, the 'Broken Peak' Mo knife in Barrett's hand also let out a soft groan out of thin air. This ancient weapon has become more powerful as Barrett's strength has increased.

"If I'm not mistaken, the ability that 'Broken Peak' has gained now should be 'Dimensional Blade'! It's a pity that judging from the current situation, that ability has no impact on the current battle! Touching his weapon with his hand, Barrett muttered to himself. And 'Broken Peak' seemed to be aware of Barrett's nagging, and the blade shook while emitting a "buzzing" chirp, as if in protest.

The ability of the Dimensional Blade. The owner of the handshake 'Broken Peak' can use it to hit a target while silently reciting the command in his mind. Immediately, the creature that was hit was sliced by the force that shimmered with emerald green. This force field completely prevents interdimensional travel, which is equivalent to the effect of the 'Dimensional Anchor' spell cast by the mage.

This once-a-day effect and the Mage's Dimensional Anchor can be said to have their own merits. However, if you can't find a target to use in a powerful ability, it's useless! In Barrett's current situation. This ability doesn't have a chance to be effective anytime soon - unless those dark elf mages have their brains pumped out to charge into battle, or summon demons or demons with teleportation abilities.

Barrett then opened the character panel and began to observe the abilities he could obtain at level 7. For the orderly army, level 7 seems to be more or less a key node. At this level, Barrett can't choose by himself as before, but is directly endowed with the ability of 'Order Aura'.

Of course, the so-called 'aura of order' and the 'aura of perfect order' of 'pious flow' are not concepts. In contrast to the latter's extraordinary effect of controlling all variables, the 'Order Aura' is more like an enhanced version of the spell 'Protective Chaos' - a faint blue light envelops the recipient, helping them to protect against attacks. Make them resistant to threats from chaotic creatures.

First of all, creatures with 'Aura of Order' gain +4 deflections against attacks from chaotic creatures, and +4 resistance bonuses when exempted from checks. Secondly, like Protective Chaos, this ability blocks psychic influences and possession effects. Overall, as a resident with a special ability of the body. It's not bad.

And on the next issue of expertise, Barrett chose the very simple 'weapon specialization (Mo Knife)' without saying a word. Although this specialty is not very powerful, sooner or later it will require the investment of resources. Until there's a better option, it's always a good idea to point it out.

But the next martial arts choice is on top. Barrett was really stumped. After all, on level 4 martial arts. Barrett has quite a few good options. At the same time, it is not like the three rings, which have the two absolute kings of 'Iron Heart Power' and 'White Crow Tactics'. This can be quite a headache for Barrett.

The first to be excluded is the Aerial Reaper of the Tiger Claw Stream. While the jump check is easy to pass, the bonus damage isn't particularly outstanding at this level. The greatest value is that it can catch the target off guard, which makes it easy for sneak attacks to become popular. On top of that, the user can also move to other places by the way, which is a bonus - unfortunately Barrett is not a light warrior who likes to jump around. Coupled with the fact that it needed a Tiger Claw Stream martial art as a precursor, Barrett, who had not invested much in this area, had to choose to give up.

And the next thing out of the game is the 'cover attack' of the crow stream. This thing is an upgraded version of Desert Wind's 'Flame of Trouble' (so what is the need for Desert Wind to exist...... ）。 The user unleashes a torrential series of attacks on their opponents, leaving them with the need to defend themselves and buy their allies valuable time to safely pass through enemy forces - by using their vast combat experience and knowledge to allow attacks to disrupt enemy forces. Make it impossible for them to take advantage of your companion's mistakes. So that those companions are free to move tactically.

It's a good fit. However, since it is a cooperation, there are many restrictions on its use. So Barrett wouldn't be able to invest his limited selection of moves in this infrequently used ability.

Then Barrett touched his chin. Began to shift their focus to 'Powerful Strikes' and 'Quick Rectification'.

The former is a 4-ring move of 'Stone Dragon Flow', although the bonus damage is very unsightly at this level. However, the powerful blow temporarily disorients the user's opponent, giving him a few seconds of precious time to escape the effects of the blow - forcing them to regain their balance before re-acting, losing the ability to move in the meantime.

And after gaining the ability of the stone dragon to control the sky, this martial art no longer only works on opponents standing on the ground. Flying creatures or floating targets are also affected to some extent by this effect. This makes it a fairly solid move. Unfortunately, it's still not amazing enough.

'Quick rectification' is one of the classic core flow countermeasures. This is a testament to the Iron Heart's tradition of controlling speed and power—even if the opponent dodges the user's initial attack, the user's weapon can be positioned with lightning speed under one's control, returning to a defensive stance while completing another attack in the blink of an eye.

A miss is fatal for a kitchen knife. This is especially true when a martial artist uses a big killing move. Therefore, there are many martial artists who tend to use it as the most preferred choice for the 4 rings. It's a pity that at Barrett's current level, if it's an ordinary attack, there is still the possibility of a mistake, and if it's a killer move, it rarely misses. In this way, the choice of this move also has a bit of a frustration, at least not at the moment - and as far as Barrett knows, the oddities that provide similar effects are not very expensive.

Subsequently, Steel Soul Flow's 'Soul Breaking Sword' and Stone Dragon Flow's 'Bone Splitting Attack' were also abandoned by Barrett. Although the attribute damage of these two is a good thing, it doesn't seem to be what Barrett urgently needs at the moment.

Among them, the 'Soul Breaker' attacks the target and destroys the enemy's senses and causes them to lose concentration - it mainly affects perception, and can be used to match spells that require will. It also causes them to lose spell slots when dealing with Divine Spellcasters. However, the required exemption is not too difficult to be reliable.

This makes the 'Bone Split' look a little stronger - the attack goes over the armor and smashes the bones into powder. By infusing a devastating attack with all his might, the user completely crushes the opponent, taking away his health and stamina. It's great that no immunity for constitution damage can cut the enemy's maximum health and tenacity immunity. As for monsters that are immune to constitution damage, aren't they also immune to perceived damage?

Barrett, who was chosen last, finally began to struggle: "The catapult slash seems to be good, but I don't have any matching moves right now." Wait until I have the ability of the lion rush class in the future, and then use the experience to burn it out. Nightmare Sword. Ruby's double damage, I don't seem to have a reason not to choose it? If this had been before, the minotaur would have been absolutely incapacitated at that time. But Metal Storm is also very good. This one is even more powerful than the Whirlwind Attack specialty, and it is very effective to clear the field when you are beaten by the Black Skin! And I seem to be lacking the ability to hurt groups now......" (to be continued......

PS: The modification is complete. Thanks to the "Clear Night Starry Sky", "YF533" and "Paladin Little Seven" for their monthly votes. At the same time, I would like to thank "Yankuang" and "Salted Fish 1988" for their great rewards.
