Chapter 120: A Brief Peace
"Don't be discouraged, we're not without an advantage." Rielly was still in that somewhat terrifying form, but her fearful appearance didn't affect her thinking: "At least in hand-to-hand combat, we have a clear advantage. Casting spells takes some time after all. Wait a minute, I'm going to use 'dismantling' to defend Barrett against the other party's spells as much as possible. As long as you can get rid of the remaining guards as quickly as possible. We don't necessarily have a chance to push that guy back. ”
"So what am I doing?" Lalu is clearly protesting against the fact that he has been forgotten.
Rielly was about to reach out and touch Lalu's head. But after raising it, she looked at the black paws, but she immediately took it back: "You just need to be responsible for harassment later." When I first chosen, why didn't I find out that the warrior monk would have such a problem later......"
"Don't worry! It will be better later. If you really can't do it, there are advanced professions! "Barrett doesn't want the guys to be discouraged by that kind of thing at this time! He pondered for a moment and had to draw a large pie for Laru: "There seems to be an advanced level in the Sealing Brotherhood called the Seal Monk that is very powerful. Although we don't have much to do with each other at the moment, it will take a little time for you to advance. If you start working hard now, you may not be without opportunities. Even if this path doesn't work, both the Bolim family and the Good Dragon God Church have some good progress. There's always a way to solve your lack of combat power......"
The so-called Brotherhood of Seals is a special organization on the Western Continent. Everyone knows that there are countless ruins and ruins beneath this land. Although for adventurers and mercenary groups, these ruins are often their paradise. But not all relics are treasure troves waiting to be discovered - because not all relics of the past can bring happiness and joy.
Because sometimes there are cult strongholds. A secret gathering of demon believers. The Evil Research Institute of the Ruins of Certain Crazed Spellcasters. As a result, disasters caused by the excavation of ruins on the mainland will occur from time to time. And the Brotherhood of Seals is an organization that specializes in dealing with this situation. They work with other organizations to seal the source of these scourges. At the same time, a guard point should be set up on it to ensure that the huge tombs are not disturbed, and to prevent the power locked in them from being released.
As for whether the organization they cooperated with continued to study something privately after being sealed, it is not for outsiders to know. After all, the Sealing Brotherhood is not a machine that does not eat the fireworks of the world, and the operation of any organization needs a source of funds, otherwise even the most noble ideals will not be able to withstand the test of the great waves of reality. As for the Sealing Brotherhood, there is no public industry on the mainland, so the source of funds behind this has always attracted the curious eyes of interested parties.
According to Barrett. Inevitably, there was an honoraria from the ruler of the place where the incident occurred. And those who cooperate with them may also be able to afford their financial problems to a certain extent. As the saying goes, the hands of people are short, and the mouths of people are short, so it is a matter of course that if there is any deal behind their backs.
Of course, in this way, it will become less difficult to obtain the advanced path mastered by the organization. Although there were not many of them, Barrett still knew that there were still outsiders who had mastered the Seal Monk Rank among them. It's just that this advancement didn't spread after the Gaiden. Obviously, it needed some special conditions to advance, and those conditions were only in the hands of the Sealing Brotherhood. However, this also makes it less difficult to get advanced - after all, whether or not it will lead to outreach is a big concern for any organization.
Of course, Barrett mentions the profession of Monk of Seals, also because of the very strong abilities he can bring. First of all, this advancement can be like the basic warrior class. Improve their Wind Combo, Shock Punch, and Unarmed Strike class abilities.
Secondly, this advanced profession can also provide a lot of additives. When attacking objects, ignore the 'Drop Stone Piercing' which has a hardness of 1 point per class level. It is still possible to choose one of the door sealing techniques and the arcane lock as the 'gatekeeper' of the limited class. It can work well at the right time. Even skills like 'Finding Traps' and 'Finding Sigils'. It can also play a role in the absence of the wanderer.
What's more, the three core competencies of this profession are definitely drooling over most bare combat professions. The damage of the unarmed strike has been increased, as if he were a creature of one level larger, and the 'Fist of Stone' is simple and strong. It can be said that it is a welcome enhancement at any time.
Then there's the 'Terror Strike' that has the ability to knock others away, the 'Domino Strike' that deals damage from subsequent impacts, the 'Riptide Strike' that allows it to take effect during Wind Combos, and the 'Waterfall Strike' system that even works multiple times. It is a very powerful class for any monk who needs to face multiple enemies.
Of course, for cats, this ability is somewhat insufficient. After all, in terms of strength and perception, the cat people race have no advantages. And in terms of size, he also doesn't take advantage of it. However, as long as the level is high enough, it will still be able to exert extraordinary effects after the battle.
As for the 'unsealing' and 'dismantling' effects that represent the core of the sealed monks, they have become the object of headaches for the mages.
A certain level of Monk of Seal is able to attempt to break magical seals or protections, including protective spells, inscriptions, emblems, runes, and other magical writing. While he must come into contact with the protected object, emblem, or area - some of which can deal normal damage with an unarmed strike or a non-damaging melee contact attack - and consume 1 Stun Fist use to negate the effect (similar to disarming magic).
If the seal is successfully unsealed, the protective effect is broken, and the Monk of Seal will not take any damage from it, even if the effects would have hurt anyone who touched it. If unsealing fails, the Monk will receive any effects from contact with the protected area, object, or creature as usual, and it will remain intact unless it would normally be broken during its effect.
And in the end sealed the monk's ability to unseal. It can even destroy force field effects and create protection, spells, and shaping effects that fix obstacles - such as the Rainbow Orb. Shelter huts or ice walls. Even though these effects are not normally affected by disarming spells.
From a certain point of view. If the cat boy succeeds in advancing to this profession. Then Barrett's previous mage killer path may be able to go further. At the very least, the force field in front of them is so strong that players don't have to stare dryly - of course, if they reach that level, Rielly will have the means to deal with this situation. However, there are also not too many similar abilities, and if a mage makes a mistake, there is someone who can remedy it.
As for the 'Shadow Day Walker' inheritance mastered by the Boreham family mentioned earlier, Barrett had long since stopped mentioning it. Because the longer the contact took place, the more Barrett found that Lalu didn't seem to be suitable for that advanced fighting style. It is also quite difficult to meet the prerequisites required for advancement. And the compatibility of the cat people and that advanced is also not very good.
Of course, more important is the current situation, which makes Barrett relegate the long-forgotten profession here - after all, it is in the testing period. He didn't have that need for that himself. At that time, he had never been abused by force field spells!
"That seems like a lot of choice!" Although Barrett never focused on it, he also introduced several possible advancements to Lalu before and after. Remembering the characteristics of each of those professions, Lalu immediately became a little confused now. Apparently there is some phobia of choice.
However, as the owner of the cat, Rielly immediately spoke: "Let's talk about this kind of thing then!" It doesn't matter which one you like anyway. ”
"That's it! That's the end of the conversation, and the guys seem to be done. As he spoke, Barrett pointed to the end of the wall. As a well-tested warrior, Barrett's judgment on that aspect is still very reliable. Because once the battle preparations are completed, the opponent's spirit and spirit will change a lot. The most intuitive manifestation is to become more confident.
Hearing this, Rielly immediately prepared to cast a spell with a scroll: "It seems that the calculation time is much better. After all, the Force Wall Technique doesn't work for long. ”
The two teams of people who were isolated by the invisible force were making final preparations at this time, while waiting for the decisive moment to come. Although the confidence of the players on this side is a little lacking. But a few people from the Mammoth Dynasty are also beating drums in their hearts now.
You must know that one of them dragged to the force field wall is almost over and has not started fighting. The main purpose was to wait for reinforcements in the square. As long as there are a few people coming up from the ladder on their side, the caster with the meat shield will be able to cast spells more calmly. But what they didn't expect was that there was already a serious confrontation among the mammoth dynasty troops in the square. Although the confrontation and confrontation are manifested in spirit rather than in action. But the reinforcements they craved had also become far away.
Of course, the reason why the spellcaster and his followers still hope for low-level reinforcements is largely because they don't know much about their comrades. As mentioned earlier, arcane spellcasters are scarce in the Mammoth Dynasty. Then it is like the high-level mage in front of him, obviously it is impossible for a different tribe to be able to provide for it.
The caster who traveled with the army was loyal to the Golden Horde of the Mammoth Dynasty - meaning it didn't matter who sat on the throne in the end. In other words, it means absolute support for the Party Central Committee, and who supports whom in the Central Committee. Of course, the other party can maintain such a position because he has the value of making the ruler look at him differently.
His expedition with the army this time was also completely an official mission sent by the Mammoth Dynasty. Although there was a Mastodon clan that had been practicing for a while, there was no big problem from a tactical point of view. But the contradictions within the Mastodon tribe and the undercurrents in private can be smeared - after all, most spellcasters have little talent for politics and intrigue. They're spending too much time in the arcane ocean.
So left and right, the expected reinforcements never came. The few remaining mammoths on the roof also became a little irritated in their hearts. They didn't know the reason for this change, and some of them even felt that it couldn't be that the temple of the 'Goddess of Wealth and Commerce' had used some means to make the comrades in the square temporarily unable to take care of themselves.
Sometimes the more you think about it, the worse your mood gets. The one who was the caster of the spell could still calm down, but the guards around him had begun to become breathless under such pressure. Knowing that he could no longer drag it out, the mage immediately chose to attack.
As his thoughts moved, the original indestructible wall of power disappeared in an instant. Immediately after this guy raised his hand and pointed at it, a green light immediately shot straight towards the three of them. And with this green signal, the opponent's guards immediately grabbed their weapons to prevent the player's surprise attack - these tactics were obviously to protect the turtle and defend, and use the huge advantage in spells to destroy the players.
"Damn! Failure ......" Rielly, who let the scroll in her hand lose its effect, immediately flapped her wings as she jumped, preparing to dodge the enemy's first spell. And the cat boy also resolutely hid behind Barrett at this time, because he knew that the big man in front of him was his most reliable shield.
'Ray spells don't pose much of a threat! With this in mind, Barrett immediately swung the 'Broken Peak' and pounced towards the oncoming green light. The silver 'Sword Barrier' was a terrifying green glow, but the spell in the place didn't do any damage to the players in the end.
'Can that guy even stop dissociation?' The enemy spellcaster who discovered the mage's failure immediately turned pale. To say that this attack, one of the three people he chose was transformed into a mage of the Raven Demon.
Although Rielly is alert by nature, she dodges immediately after a failed spell counter. But if Barrett hadn't taken the initiative to intercept it, it was really unknown whether he would have been able to dodge! Although Rielly is alert by nature, she dodges immediately after a failed spell counter. But if Barrett hadn't taken the initiative to intercept it, it was really unknown whether he would have been able to dodge! (To be continued.) )
