Chapter 127: Black Lead's 'Battle'
The established professional abilities are not very strong, but they are all simple and easy to use. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info But if you take into account the 'Covenant Spirit' ability that you have already obtained, the benefits of obtaining the first 'Order Blade' level will indeed make many kitchen knife professionals jealous and hateful to death!
After confirming that those must have acquired abilities, Barrett turned his attention to the moves and specialties that he had to choose. As far as the martial arts available are concerned, the improvement from 5 to 6 rings is not very large. Barrett, however, found two of these options to further enhance the user's mobility in one way.
One of them is the 'Swift Moment' of the 'Steel Soul' stream: you act again between heartbeats, and your opponents haven't even recovered from the previous attacks. To put it bluntly, this is an instantaneous explosive acceleration ability, allowing you to move when you want to. However, according to the description, the consumption of use is not small, and it seems that it should only be used as an emergency means at a critical moment. It's hard to normalize it.
Another good option is the 'White Crow' stream's 'Army Spirit Charge', which is an upgraded version of the previous 2-ring martial art, 'Leader Charge' - as the charge triggers, the user summons the anger in his chest and makes a thunderous sound. This reckless action shocks the opponent and gives the attack more power.
In fact, in front of the enemy who can master the 6 rings, it is difficult to lead the charge in the past, and it can play a good tactical role at the low level. However, the 'Spirit Charge' boost makes it still a great move for the Charge stream - after all, the 25 damage bonus is always welcome.
Although 'Divine Speed' seems to be more powerful, in the follow-up moves of 'White Crow', the requirements for the pre-position must also be met early. Barrett struggled a little as he thought about it. When he was retraining at level 5, in order to ensure his combat effectiveness at that time, Barrett gave up the 'leading charge' he had already learned. Now it looks like it needs to be remediated.
However, after thinking about it repeatedly, Barrett still made a choice: "It's still early for the 'Raven Hammer'!" There will definitely be opportunities for choice in the future. If it doesn't work, it will be solved by burning expertise at that time. ”
After deciding on 'Divine Speed', Barrett set his sights on the optional specializations of the Level 11 characters. Looking at the current number of known martial arts and the number of martial arts that can be prepared each day, Barrett set his sights on the use of freedom without saying a word—flexibility is always an issue when it comes to preparing moves. This expertise can help Barrett solve the problem of flexibility.
Normally, Barrett would have spent 5 minutes meditating to change the martial arts he was preparing. And with this specialty, you can change the martial arts you are preparing at any time with a 6-second concentration.
In fact, this specialty Barrett was there early on. However, at that time, on the one hand, because he had not mastered many martial arts, the demand for this ability was not very large. On the other hand, it's also because I can't spare enough specialty slots to choose this one because I can't stare at the entire chain of specializations of 'Penetration Spell Masking' and 'Penetration Spell Protection'. Now it can be regarded as completing one of his original intentions.
After completing the many options for upgrading, Barrett estimated a little that his current explosiveness had improved. General performance has improved to a certain extent. The rest of the game is only available against certain special enemies (not as good as the Chaos faction) to gain an additional advantage.
At this point, Barrett felt that he was getting farther and farther away from the 'pious stream'. You must know that the 'Perfect Order Aura' of 'Piety Flow' is a very strong posture effect. When the user was in this stance, a mist of perfect golden energy enveloped him. The energy of order banishes the fickle energy of chaos and gains supremacy, bringing a large number of random confrontations into a controlled choice.
It's a pity that Barrett didn't have any additional stance to learn when he got the level 1 'Blade of Order'. If you want to learn, you have to spend experience to burn. What's more, the 'Perfect Order Aura' needs to be preceded by the two 'Pious Flow' martial arts. If the former can still grit his teeth, the latter problems really cannot be solved in a short time.
"It seems that the word order in 'Blade of Order' is somewhat unworthy of my name!" Thinking of this, Barrett couldn't help but laugh at himself.
However, such sentimental feelings were quickly forgotten by Barrett. But he had barely reached the deck when Morpheus heard a voice from above the stern: "It seems that those sea beasts are not completely unproductive. Barrett, you actually took the last step in yesterday's battle. ”
"It's a fluke, it's just a fluke." Barrett, who turned his head, replied with a little embarrassment.
"Don't take any chances." The voice of the Morpheus knight came from the stern again, "Now that the black lead has been broken. Come and practice with me! Our burden is not light! ”
Hearing this, Barrett remembered the losses of yesterday's battle. More than half of the marines who were the frigate's close-quarters defense force were lost, and even the Aboriginal stormtrooper Eevee, whom Barrett was familiar with, was killed. As a result, the protection of the ship was very seriously weakened.
If the enemy you may encounter in the future chooses to play an artillery battle with the 'Iron Curtain Barrier' from a long distance, there may not be any problems. But if you stick out your face and play hand-to-hand combat, then it's a big deal.
If that were the case, the Iron Curtain Barrier would have to rely on Morpheus Knight and Barrett to support its deck work. More extremely, it is possible that because the Morpheus Knight has more important enemies to fight, he has thrown that burden on the shoulders of Barrett's 'immature'.
In order to add as much insurance as possible to the safety of the ship, assault training has now become a last resort - if there is any other way, neither Barrett nor Morpheus Knight is willing to take this path. But now they have to do it as a last resort, and sharpening the gun in the battle has some effect.
A series of 'clanging' sounds rang out again over the Iron Curtain, and Barrett dodged the Morpheus Knight's attack sideways, and then activated his newfound ability. Immediately everything around them changed, the sound of the wind was lengthened, the clouds began to slow down, and even the waves on the surface of the sea seemed to be fixed.
This sudden swing of the knife almost passed the interception of the Morpheus Knight. He was forced to ride his mount back five feet before he could evade Barrett's fierce counterattack. This can be said to have started with training at sea, and Barrett pushed the Morpheus Knight back for the first time. Before that, he had already struggled to parry and dodge, and he couldn't even free up his hands to make a decent counterattack - the kind of charge after being knocked away didn't count.
The Morpheus Knight, who had stepped back five feet, smiled a little after looking at Barrett: "That's right, come on." ”
It can be seen that the interim instructor is genuinely pleased with Barrett's progress. But Barrett, who has been abused all the way, is not happy at all now. Unfortunately, at the urging of the Morpheus Knight, he had to continue to maintain this high-intensity battle.
Unfortunately, the physical exertion of 'Swift Moment' was greater than before, so much so that in a shorter period of training than before, Barrett raised the white flag. Barrett, who had returned to the deck, turned his head and, without saying a word, grabbed a barrel from the side and sat down.
And after seeing this scene, the Morpheus Knight immediately felt that something was wrong: "It stands to reason that you have been promoted to black lead, and your physical strength should be much better than before!" Why is it not as good as before? ”
"The new moves consume too much physical strength, so they are inferior to the protracted battle." Barrett, who was soothing his breathing, told the truth.
"An explosive move at this level? How did you just behave? That's supposed to be 'Swift'. "The Morpheus Knights, combined with Barrett's legacy, got the answer right away. But then his face was not very good-looking: "It turns out that you rely on this to have such a good performance!" I thought it was your own martial arts skills that had improved. What a joy in vain. ”
"But in any case, this kind of improvement will also be good for the next possible attack!" Barrett felt quite good, "The high burst in a short period of time is definitely capable of inflicting a heavy blow on the morale of the enemy. ”
"Don't look at the present, you boy! Pay attention to your long-term future, believe it or not. Hearing this, Knight Morpheus rewarded Barrett with a look at his head, "In the next training, don't say 'quick and instantaneous', and hone your combat skills." You must know that not all circumstances can make you explode recklessly. ”
"I understand that, but shouldn't I get used to my newfound abilities?" Barrett immediately found the right excuse, "No matter what the future holds, the first thing we need to overcome now is this difficult time." ”
Although the three frigates sent by Boreham have now gone almost 170% of the scheduled itinerary. But the current situation makes people dare not take it lightly - the truth that those who travel a hundred miles are common in any world, and any accident can happen before they sail into the port of the Tutkel commercial republic.
"With your talent, it shouldn't take more than a few days to get acquainted with that new ability!" Although Barrett is very reasonable, Morpheus Knight is not so easily fooled: "After three days, you are forbidden to use 'Divine Speed' during sparring. ”
Although the Morpheus Knight saw through his little tricks, Barrett was not angry at all. After all, the other party's starting point is for their own good, and the means can't find anything wrong. Although many people resented this kind of thing, Barrett couldn't fight too fiercely.
With the sound of a clang, the damage on the ship was repaired day by day. From the sails and cables to the rudder and hull, the Bowlham flotilla prepared to charge after spending a lot of time, if not refreshed, but at least it looked like that.
The two who continued to duel under the clouds suddenly stopped what they were doing. They then looked southwest, where a mast rose out of the water at sea level. The phrase "standing tall and seeing far" is not wrong in many cases—both Barrett and Morpheus Knight are now far away from the ship's lookouts.
"Let's hope it's not a pirate hired by those guys!" Although it was not yet possible to discern the general outline of the ship, Barrett was already praying in his heart. You must know that those forces that sacrificed the sea beast disaster before are fully capable of hiring pirates to pursue and kill.
There weren't many things that could restrain them, one was that the budget to sabotage the agreement was insufficient, and it was exhausted after the sacrifice was completed. The other is the lag of intelligence, because it is not known whether the Boreham fleet will be killed in the belly of the fish, so there is no time to make follow-up arrangements.
Over time, in addition to the bow mast, the remaining masts of that sailboat soon appeared in Barrett's eyes. And the flag fluttering on the opposing mast completely shattered Barrett's only remaining illusion. Because it was a black skull flag.
In fact, most pirates rarely fly this kind of flag when they are robbing. After all, after seeing this flag from afar, most ships will be on guard. The price to pay to capture a ship is much harder than to sneak in and then make a surprise attack.
However, there is another group of pirates who adhere to the unique rules of the Black Skull Banner, as they are followers of the 'Pirate Guardian Kukla'. The priesthood of this deity includes 'voyage', 'exposing', 'pirate', and 'black market trade'. As an emerging god, and is the guardian of the inconvenient light industry. This highness's strength is not very strong.
Even the priests under his command were only able to learn the 6-ring magic at most. But for pirates, this guy was a true patronus - before he appeared, most pirates couldn't find a priest. And those who spread the glory of the gods are generally not associated with pirates.
And all pirate ships with Kukra priests must fly the Black Skull flag as their emblem. This is clearly stated in the teachings of the 'Kukla, the Guardian of the Pirates'. Say that a lot of pirates are oscillating between sneak attacks and priests. Of course, pirates who are really powerful will naturally choose the help of the priest. Because having a priest at sea is equivalent to giving people an extra life. (To be continued.) )
