Chapter 57: Strength skyrockets

The first thing to upgrade is swordsmanship!

The pain of Bailuo's breathing method when he was upgraded was vivid, Du Mu didn't dare to upgrade the two skills at the same time, it would be funny if he was killed in pain.

However, the strange thing is that after confirming the upgrade, there was no severe pain, and Du Mu only felt a sudden roar in his mind, and countless information poured in in an instant, making his head buzz.

At the same time, there was a trance in front of him, and countless vivid images flashed quickly, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a person who was practicing swordsmanship in a completely oblivious manner, and his appearance and body shape were extremely similar to him.

In just a moment, Du Mu seemed to have experienced more than ten years of cultivation, and when the scene faded like a tide, and his mind regained consciousness, he looked down at the black sword in his hand, and suddenly there was a wonderful feeling that the blood was connected, as if the long sword was a part of his body.

This intoxicating and wonderful feeling lingered in Du Mu's heart, he silently realized, he didn't know how to describe it, and he pondered for a long time before he spit out a word.

"Good!

Immediately after, Du Mu looked up at the upper left side of his field of vision, and found that after his swordsmanship was upgraded to the mastery level, his combat power also skyrocketed to 68, an increase of 16 points.

"Sure enough, it's still the skill that improves the strength the most!"

All of a sudden, the strength increased by almost a third!

Du Mu sighed, turned to the computer screen, and continued to click on the swordsmanship.

'Swordsmanship (Mastery), which can be upgraded, consumes 100 Nightmare Energy. ’

100 points!

Du Mu secretly took a breath, he thought that the Bailuo Breathing Method needed 80 nightmare energy to be enough, but he didn't expect that the swordsmanship would have to be 20 points more!

"Forget it, anyway, in addition to the nightmare energy, there must be other invisible conditions for swordsmanship to be upgraded again, so you don't need to think about upgrading in a short period of time. ”

Sure enough, as Du Mu clicked to confirm the upgrade, a prompt of 'Nightmare Energy and Physical Fitness do not meet the conditions and cannot be upgraded' immediately popped up on the screen.

"It is estimated that when the physical fitness is enough, the nightmare energy will be almost saved. ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Du Mu quickly put this matter behind him, and nodded his body opening skill with great anticipation, continuing to upgrade the second skill.

With a thunderous buzz in the head, the familiar picture resurfaced.

This time, the 'Du Mu' in the picture has become a cultivation of physical arts, showing the ultimate impact beauty between punches and kicks, and the power is imposing.

Soon, the picture dissipated, and Du Mu came back to his senses and looked down at his body.

He had a vague feeling that something had changed in himself, but he couldn't say it.

Compared to swordsmanship, the change in feeling after upgrading the physical technique is not very obvious.

On the other hand, however, the increase in combat effectiveness it has brought is astonishing.

'Combat Strength: 85'

is also promoted to the proficient level, and the increase in combat power brought by physical skills is actually 3 points more than that of swordsmanship!

"Hmm...... Maybe it's because the great power belongs to one's body?" Du Mu touched his chin and muttered, "After all, the strength of swordsmanship still needs to be reflected through swords, but physical skills are not, and they can be used with bare hands. ”

Judging from Du Mu's previous observations, the evaluation of combat effectiveness does not seem to include weapons, or the influence has been weakened to the extreme, at least whether he is holding a black sword or not, his own combat effectiveness has not changed at all.

Shaking his head, Du Mu stopped thinking about this question and returned his attention to the computer screen.

Gangliro and Iron are still the same, they can't be upgraded, and they don't know how far their physical fitness can be improved.

On the contrary, there is a skill unlocking interface, and new skill options have appeared in both sword skills and physical skills.

'Sharp Claw, Triple Fencing Technique, from Sword Art Online Kirito, unlock conditions: Swordsmanship (Mastery), Agility E, 10 Nightmare Energy. ’

'Flash Spike, Rush Sword Technique, from Sword Art Online Asuna, unlock conditions: Sword Skill (Mastery), Agility E, 12 Nightmare Energy. ’

'Six-Style Finger Gun, Attack Physical Skill, from One Piece Rob Luki, Unlock Condition: Strength E, 15 Nightmare Energy'

There are two sword skills and one body skill in total!

"Which one should I learn?"

Looking at the skills on the screen, Du Mu fell into hesitation for a while.

Needless to say, the strength of the snake devouring has already made him taste a lot of sweetness, and as an advanced sword skill of the snake devouring, the power of the sharp claw will obviously only be stronger, once it is learned, it will inevitably bring a lot of improvement to his strength.

The flash spike is currently the only one of the breakthrough sword skills, and it can be guessed from the name that it is a skill that unexpectedly closes the distance and then launches an attack, which can undoubtedly make Du Mu's current combat skill system more perfect.

If you time it well, it can even be the final word in battle.

As for the finger gun, as a physical skill of the same system as the iron, Du Mu's expectations for it can be said to be the greatest of the three skills, but on the contrary, the effect of the finger gun on Du Mu is the smallest of the three skills.

Without him, just because in the martial arts examination that is close at hand, the martial arts expertise assessed does not include physical skills.

This alone greatly reduces the effect of the finger gun on Du Mu, at least for now.

On the other hand, if you unlock the sword skill, not only can you get a higher evaluation in the examination school for your martial arts expertise, but it can also play a huge role in the actual combat test, and the cost performance is much higher than that of the finger gun.

In view of this, the finger gun was the first to be excluded by Du Mu.

"When you pass the martial arts exam, you have enough nightmare energy to unlock it...... Speaking of which, why should physical skills be excluded from the martial arts examination?"

This thought flashed through Du Mu's mind, but he quickly shook his head and gave up thinking and returned his attention to sword skills.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose the flash spike, which was more helpful for actual combat.

After upgrading his swordsmanship and physical skills, Du Mu just had 12 nightmare energy left, and after unlocking the flash spike at this time, it instantly returned to zero.

One night back to the pre-liberation period!

Instead, there is a terrifying boost in strength!

Looking at the newly renovated personal status panel, and then looking at the upper left side of the field of vision, which had more than doubled its combat power, Du Mu only felt satisfied.

"With my current strength, I should be sure to pass the exam of Star Luo Academy!"

When his combat strength was only in his early 40s, according to Du Shuang, he was fifty percent sure of being admitted to Xingluo Academy, and now his strength has more than doubled, so how can he pass the exam be more than ninety percent, right?

"There's still a lot of time left, so let's just familiarize yourself with the new skills in your dreams tonight. Du Mu said secretly in his heart, took out the long sword casually, and walked towards the street.

The bedroom and living room space are too small, and there are too many clutters to be used, but the street is quite spacious enough to let go of the skills.

"When you're almost familiar with it, let's go find a few penitents to fight!"
