Chapter Ninety-One: Sorrow

Players who have escaped from the battle wander through the woods, giving up all kinds of lighting tools to avoid being tracked by enemies. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Fortunately, with previous experience, the retreat went quite smoothly this time. What's more, of course, it doesn't matter if the players get lost right now - they can always find an exit with enough supplies and portable homes, and the only thing they have to worry about is the placement of the horses.

Barrett, who was quickly shuttling through the woods, suddenly stopped, and then he turned to look at the noodles and anvils that were already a little panting and said, "Rest for 10 minutes for a while, and the big guy will recover his strength before hurrying." Even if the other party wanted to catch up, they couldn't find us so quickly. ”

"It's a beautiful flame, tonight's combat experience is too rich, if we do it twice, we can level up right away." After leaning against the edge of the tree and catching her breath, Claudia said excitedly.

Barrett, who was also in a good mood because of the successful sneak attack, also smiled at this time: "Speaking of leveling, my level 10 experience is almost enough." I'm afraid the next step is to prepare for the difficult level 11 promotion task. ”

"I remember Barrett saying earlier that you need level 11 to get the advanced class! In other words, is it finally Barrett's turn to do advanced missions? Rielly smiled at this time, "I wonder if you want us to help then?" ”

"I don't think I need it, after all, the family side will not cheat me." Speaking of this, Barrett paused, "And if I do it alone, the task will be less difficult." ”

Although Barrett did not say it explicitly, the remaining players also understood that the main reason for this was the difference in strength between the two sides. If the difficulty of the advanced quest is really corrected according to the number of people, then the few remaining players are likely to be a laggard.

The remaining players who heard this, at this time, touched their beards, picked their noses, and looked at the night sky. All of them were a little embarrassed - especially Barrett's euphemism, which made them unable to find a good way to refute even two.

"I think instead of worrying about Barrett's advancement, you should be concerned about what we are going to do next!" At this time, Kleimatis flicked the potion bottle on his belt and said, "The damage we have caused to those Lucia barbarians tonight is not small. This will most likely lead to a major revision of their battle plan. Such a serious incident is not something that those guys in Tallinnburg have the ability to hide. When Lucia gets the news in China, the next blow will definitely not be so easy to deal with. ”

Although the losses caused by the players in tonight's raid have not yet been counted, anyone who has seen the situation cursoly will understand that it is definitely not small. The fire in the camp burned almost all the combustibles, and although the main material used to build the bridge was stone, other building materials were also needed to complete the construction. Not to mention the many artisans who were killed and injured in the fire and the riots it caused. As a result, the progress of the bridge construction project will inevitably lag behind seriously.

If it is just a general municipal project, there is no problem in delaying the completion. But this is a wartime advance corridor, and if there is too much difference from the time on the schedule, all Lucians in this direction will be held accountable. In particular, those officers may have to pay a lot of money to be able to solve the negative effects of the subsequent impact.

And the players who caused all this have not only become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the local officers. It is also likely to be a priority target for the Lucian military department. This was not only for revenge, but more importantly to warn the other teams who continued to cause trouble for Lucia's army.

The smiling faces of the players who heard this quickly disappeared and were replaced by serious expressions. And Barrett, who also heard this, although he understood that Clematis's statement was very reasonable, still waved his hand: "Lucia may indeed send more men here because of what happened tonight, but most of those guys will not be able to arrive for a while. There's no need to be so nervous right now, we can just hand in the report and see what the territory has to offer. ”

"If it's just one night, then I don't think it's a problem." Rielly, who was on the side, also nodded at this time, "Even if the news is transmitted back with strange objects here, it will take time to teleport it over there." What's more, like this kind of action, Lucia people also need to meet and discuss. ”

"So we're going to be out soon?" Holding the noodles on the trunk of the tree with his hand, he stopped panting. Noodles and Dwarves are small and slow. So when they were retreating, they had to work harder to catch up with the speed of the other players. So while the other players were normal, the two of them were out of breath.

Barrett, who heard this, shook his head: "The specific situation depends on the answer from the territory." If we're told to retreat, we'll retreat! Regardless, resurrection stones are limited. There's no need for us to risk anything like that. ”

After finding the horses with the spell marks left by Rielly, the player leads them on the move. It wasn't until at least 1 mile further south that I felt safe and began activating the 'Mage's Vault'. Barrett, who entered the house, immediately began drafting a report for Pollham for tonight's attack. The rest of the players went back to sleep after cleaning up their personal hygiene, except for those who needed to keep vigil.

However, in order to ensure the long break required for Barrett's upgrade, tonight's vigil has also been adjusted. When Barrett woke up the next day, he clicked on the upgrade option. Level 10 is a rather special level, in the power system of the Western Continent, it is the pinnacle of the Hematite Rank, and at the same time, it is the cornerstone of the Black Lead Rank.

Of course, in the game, even if players want to break through this layer of limitations, it is extremely difficult. Not to mention that among the aborigines, there are many rich children who have no shortage of material and inheritance, and they are stuck on the threshold of this model gate. In comparison, the small threshold at level 5 is completely dispensable.

For example, Lalu and Claudia did not go to the special advanced mission, but they were judged by the system to have completed the accumulation after participating in major events several times. Of course, there are no other benefits to be gained from such promotions, and in the face of the chasm of 10-11 levels, they will need to pay more than others.

In this way, the status of professionals around level 10 is quite embarrassing, and once they step through that step, they will naturally be the real sense of the people, and they will be accepted into the aristocratic system. But if you can't cross that hurdle, you can only watch the glory and wealth that you are about to touch for the rest of your life.

Of course, for the players' templates, level 10 is neither an odd level nor a multiple of 4. So, naturally, there are no additional feats and stat points to choose from. Only the special abilities and martial arts moves that must be found at each level of the 'Order Army' are the changes that Barrett needs to face when leveling up.

Although Barrett's family inheritance system has only reached level 10, it seems that the reason why many ancestors have been stuck in front of the threshold for a long time, and there are far more records of the abilities that can be mastered at this level than before. Some of these abilities tend to be offensive, some are mobile, some are supportive, but few are defensive - this seems to prove one thing, Barrett's Boreham side branch seems to be born with no one to like to defend.

Looking at these optional abilities one after another, Barrett is really a little dazzled. But he quickly calmed down: 'Let me think about what I need now?' I don't lack the means to attack now, and the dynamic defense and static defense are enough. There is also no problem with displacement. So what I want now, should be ......'

After thinking about it for a long time, Barrett finally chose a support ability, 'Slam', which tends to attack in the direction of attack. This ability allows the user to swing their weapon while running wildly and accurately attack the target of their choice. Named after the resemblance to a lion in a pounce, it's a pretty good support technique.

Of course, from the perspective of horizontal comparison, Barrett has a relatively late learning time for this ability in the inheritance system. Unlike some barbarian tribes who believe in the lion totem, barbarians born there are often able to acquire such abilities from the outset. But no matter how late it is, Barrett thinks that as long as it is obtained, it will not be a loss. Because it can combine many of Barrett's current abilities to achieve the effect that one plus one is greater than two.

After choosing his professional abilities, Barrett turned his attention to the new moves he could learn. At this level, the 'Power of Order' and some other moves possessed by the 'Devout Stream' are indeed very attractive. However, after Barrett retrained, he lost the pre-moves he needed to choose these 'devout flow' martial arts. At this point, I had to give up in pain - of course, more importantly, those moves, like all 'devotion flow' martial arts, had a lot of limitations in how they could be used. Otherwise, Barrett might have used his experience to burn a pre-martial art before.

Later, turning his gaze back to his usual genre, Barrett found that he didn't have a good choice at this level. The 'Iron Focus' chosen by the upper level is used to deal with some unlucky emergencies. Among the remaining options, the 'Combo Attack' of 'White Crow Flow' is a move that tests the cooperation of teammates. At present, the kitchen knife in the team is not superior, so it is quite chicken.

The move of 'Tiger Claw Flow' is the same as 'Devotion Flow', which is a type that was abandoned before and cannot be picked up now. The final 'Stone Dragon' doesn't have much to choose from at this level. Pick and choose between the 'Iron Heart Flow' and the 'Steel Soul Flow'. In the end, Barrett set his sights on the two equally effective martial arts, 'Sorrowful Sword' and 'Vertigo Strike'.

The 'Sword of Sorrow' uses brute force, a keen grasp of time, and precise aiming to force the user to the point where they are unable to take any action - as part of the move, the user performs a melee attack. If the attack hits, the target must take normal damage and must also perform a Will Check (affected by the user's strength), if the target does not pass the Will Check, it will be difficult to perform any action for 6 seconds. However, the target does not suffer any other penalties for this.

The 'Vertigo Strike', on the other hand, is a powerful attack on the opponent by concentrating his strength and precise aiming, causing him to temporarily lose consciousness during such an attack - the correct use of force to hit a part of the opponent's bones to interrupt his movements. When he was dizzy and unconscious. As part of an art, the user performs a melee attack. If this attack hits, the target takes normal melee damage and needs to pass a Tenacity Check (affected by the user's strength) or be stunned for 6 seconds.

"Although the 'Stun Strike' seems to be stronger in terms of effect, do I really need this strike against enemies who are weaker in tenacity? Barrett, who was lying on the bed, touched his chin and made a decision.

Generally speaking, the more resilient creatures tend to be a group of guys with rough skin and thick flesh. If you use this trick against them, you may not be able to succeed. Can be strong to identify weaker enemies, and is often a thin type like a mage. A knife often solves the problem directly, where is this trick still used. This makes the 'Vertigo Strike' look beautiful, but it can actually be very awkward to use.

On the contrary, it is the 'Sorrowful Sword', although the control effect may be slightly worse, but it can be used against those who are simple-minded and have developed limbs. The actual effect of use is definitely more than the 'stun blow' of the chicken ribs. After pondering it for a while, Barrett also felt that it was time to choose a dedicated restricted ability. Although the 'crow hammer' of 'crow flow' is drooling to watch, it is too far away, and a replacement must be found at the moment.

Having finished his choice, Barrett stretched out the wrinkle on his forehead, and then began to prepare a delicious breakfast for his companions after washing. At this moment, Anvil, who was in charge of the last shift of the station, said to Barrett: "The communication gem in the second half of last night came with a message that the territory told us to get out of here as soon as possible. ”

"Get out of here as soon as possible? Is that really the case? Barrett nodded, and then turned his attention back to stirring the iron pot. (To be continued.) )
