Chapter 17: Skill Unlocking
Click!
The light particles that flew out of the gacha turned into a bottle of drink and fell into Du Mu's palm.
The moment the cold touch came, Du Mu thought that he had drawn another bottle of Fat House Happy Water, looked down and looked at it, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Good thing it's not!
The bottle was drawn as the opposite of Happy Water, with a milky white liquid inside.
The milky white liquid is presented in a 20-centimeter-tall rigid plastic bottle with a faint white glow, and the text on the wrapper on the shell shows that it is a fruit-milk drink, with a cut apple and milk pattern on it.
"The name is ......"
Du Mu's eyes narrowed, trying his best to see through the white light, trying to see the name of the drink on the package.
"Nutrition...... Fast line?"
As his gaze focused, the corresponding translucent text quickly appeared above the drink.
'Nutrition Express: After drinking, it can replenish the nutrients and energy needed by the body. ’
The words in front of him made Du Mu frown in confusion.
Nutrition and energy?
Sounds like regular milk in real life?
Du Mu scratched his head, the three things he pulled out before were all weirder, but the last one was very ordinary, which made him slightly surprised.
"Why don't you have a drink?"
After hesitating for a moment, Du Mu twisted the cap of the bottle, aimed at the mouth of the bottle and drank it with his head up.
Cold, slippery and fragrant juice milk flowed down the throat into the stomach, and in the next moment, as if the universe exploded, countless cold gas filaments poured out, quickly flowing all over the limbs.
Du Mu only felt that his body was like drinking a big sip of cold water on a dog day, and he was so happy that he almost wanted to make people moan.
However, this feeling of pleasure came and went quickly, and when Du Mu swallowed the last drop of milk juice, it dissipated completely, replaced by a vigorous sense of vitality in his body.
If Du Mu's body was a dry grass lacking water before, then he is now equivalent to a flower that has just experienced a drizzle, and all the cells in his body convey a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment.
According to the novels he once read, it was like he could kill a tiger with one punch.
The fatigue caused by the many battles with the Faceless One just now was instantly swept away, and the physical strength that had fallen to the bottom was restored to its full state.
"I see, this drink is similar to the stamina potion in the game, and the stamina will be full after a bottle!"
Du Mu is now delighted, compared with the fat house happy water, the nutrition express line is undoubtedly very practical.
It's a pity that this thing can only be obtained from the gacha, and the gacha must be drawn with a coin, the latter is not easy to get, Du Mu worked hard to kill a faceless person, and only then did he burst a coin, and not every time he could open his favorite thing.
It can be seen from the extraction just now, a full four extractions, which means that the nutrition express line and the navy figure are more practical, and the fate coin is a bit chicken, and as for the fat house happy water, it makes people want to vomit blood.
Du Mu said that he was not happy at all!
This method of drawing by luck is too uncertain, and he doesn't like it.
"Looks like we're going to have to deal with the Faceless One in the future. ”
Retrieving the black sword that was placed aside, Du Mu put away his things, and estimated that he was about to wake up in reality, so he returned along the same path, walked cautiously and slowly all the way, and returned to the bedroom of Xiaolou safely.
Sitting on the bed, Du Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and then as if he remembered something, he came to the desk and turned on the computer screen.
"Speaking of which, hand-to-hand combat seems like it only takes 1 point of Nightmare Energy to move from beginner to entry, right?"
"Do you want to upgrade?"
Staring at the screen, Du Mu frowned slightly, falling into hesitation.
Under Pei Man's guidance, his hand-to-hand combat has progressed rapidly, and it is estimated that he should be able to break through and reach the entry level in a short time, and it would be a bit wasteful to consume a little more Nightmare Energy to increase the level at this time.
"By the way, let's take a look at skill unlocks and weapon unlocks first!"
Du Mu slapped his forehead, and hurriedly clicked on the 'Skill Unlock' in the upper right corner of the screen, this time there was finally no prompt popping up, and the computer screen turned, and three new options appeared.
'Sword Skills'
'Physical Technique'
'Extraordinary'
"There are actually sword skills!" Du Mu took a slight breath.
In reality, sword skills are extremely rare, most of them are mastered by various huge families or martial arts schools, and ordinary people can't access them at all.
Holding back the ecstasy in his heart, Du Mu did not hesitate to open the 'Sword Technique' option, and as soon as the screen turned, four new options popped up in an instant.
'Combo Fencing', 'Enhanced Fencing', 'Advancing Fencing', 'Group Fencing'
"So many types?" Du Mu's eyes flashed with surprise, and after thinking about it, he first clicked on the 'Combo Fencing Technique' and a list popped up.
Snake devouring
Reverse wheel
???
???
???
Du Mu's eyes swept from top to bottom, and found that except for the first two, there were all question marks below.
As he moves the mouse and clicks in turn, the corresponding text message pops up in the center of the screen.
'Snake Eater, a double fencing skill, from Kirito in Sword Art Online, unlock conditions: swordsmanship (control), agility F+, 3 nightmare energy. ’
'Reverse wheel, counter double fencing skill, from "Sword Art Online" Kirito, unlock conditions: swordsmanship (control), agility F+, 4 nightmare energy. ’
"Sword Art Online?"
It's a name that I've never heard of, but Du Mu has long been surprised, but staring at the sword skills on the screen with shining eyes, and a look of thought appeared on his face.
"Snake Devouring and Reverse Wheel, a total of two sword skills, I have already met the unlocking conditions, so in this way, the question marks below should represent those sword skills that I have not yet met the unlocking conditions!"
Looking at the dense question marks on the list, Du Mu's eyes became more and more intense.
These are all precious sword skills!
Taking a few deep breaths, finally calming down the excitement in his heart, Du Mu suppressed his desire to unlock the sword skill immediately, and looked at other sword skill types.
However, to his disappointment, the other three sword skills were all on the list without exception, and it was clear that he had not yet met the unlock conditions.
So, Du Mu exited the 'Sword Technique' interface, returned to the original interface, and clicked on the 'Physical Technique' option instead.
'You can't open it if you haven't mastered the 'Body Art (Beginner)' skill!'
"Huh?"
Du Mu was stunned, and before he could react, another new line of prompts jumped out.
'If you have mastered the 'Hand-to-Hand Combat (Not Beginner)' skill detected, will it cost 1 Nightmare Energy to upgrade it to the 'Physical Art (Not Beginner)' skill?'
"And this kind of operation?"
After thinking for a while, Du Mu still decided not to upgrade for the time being, and kept the nightmare energy to learn the sword skills first.
After all, the reason why he learned hand-to-hand combat was only to defeat the Faceless One and break the stalemate, and now that the goal has been achieved, hand-to-hand combat is of little use to him, and the type of expertise required by the martial arts expedition does not include this.
"When the nightmare energy is abundant in the future, let's upgrade this again!"
After making a decision, Du Mu set his sights on the 'extraordinary' option, which, to his surprise, could not be opened either.
'Can't be opened without mastering the 'Extraordinary' skill!'
Shrugging his shoulders regretfully, Du Mu returned to the 'Sword Technique' interface and consumed 3 Nightmare Energy to unlock the 'Snake Devouring' Sword Skill.
Although he can also unlock the 'Reverse Wheel', the 'Reverse Wheel' is a counter-attack sword skill, and the 'Snake Devourer' is more practical in comparison.
With the deduction of nightmare points, the word 'Snake Devouring' on the list suddenly shattered and disappeared, and at the same time, there was also more information in Du Mu's mind, which was about the cultivation perception and experience of the 'Snake Devouring' sword technique.
After a moment of quiet understanding, Du Mu opened his eyes, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
He got up and took the black sword, came to the center of the bedroom, and after standing still for a few seconds, his wrist moved violently, and in an instant, he saw a sudden light in the dim room, and two cold sword lights cut through the air almost at the same time, and they bounced up like poisonous snakes, biting the air in front of him.
“...... It's so strong!"
It wasn't until the sword light dissipated for a long time that Du Mu still maintained the posture of the sword, closed his eyes and felt the sword just now, and after a long time, he put down the black sword and sighed like an inhaler.
Although he had heard of the power of sword skills for a long time, he really showed it, and it was through his own hands, and its power was still very powerful to Du Mu.
"People below the martial apprentice can't resist this move at all, with this sword technique alone, there is no one among the would-be martial apprentices who is my enemy!"
