Chapter 50: Choice
In the end, the system still didn't issue any temporary tasks to Nangong Rong, in the latter's words, it was good for the teenager to find a way to save his life in the battle, don't do something eye-catching with a hot head, it would only make him die quickly. Such a large number of monsters had long exceeded the limits of what Octavir could handle, and she couldn't even stop the few that rushed towards Nakiris, so where could she take care of Nangong Rong, whose combat power was completely equal to zero?
However, despite not releasing the task, considering the situation that is happening in front of him, the system decisively decided to directly provide Nangong Rong with level 3 permissions and related skills. Originally, I wanted to train the boy a little more before he mastered all six of the most basic skills, but the sudden appearance of an enemy boss forced the system to change its mind, and it could only choose to strengthen the boy's strength as soon as possible in a short period of time.
As for whether the rapid growth of strength will have any bad effects, the system can no longer take care of so much. Besides, Nangong Rong doesn't look like the kind of person who will casually over-inflate himself, and Octavier is also not the kind of person who will worry about being robbed of the limelight and completely rely on the help of the assistant and not want to make progress, this pair may not have any tacit understanding with each other but are subtle and quite suitable......
Of course, Nangong Rong's reaction to this was to directly raise his arm and tap the shell of the watch with his fingers, and said with a shocked expression: "Actually gave it away for nothing? Are you out of order or someone dropped the bag, the iron rooster I know will never do this!"
Well, that's a natural reaction, isn't it? After all, the system has dumped the festival too much before, and it's not surprising that the teenager wouldn't believe it. However, the system naturally has her own way of dealing with this situation, and she saw that an annoyed expression avatar of [I'm angry] immediately appeared on the watch screen, and then said angrily in a resolute and unquestionable tone:
"Discounted!"
Nangong Rong suddenly felt that there was no sense of disobedience at all when this line was replaced by a double ponytail with two swords and two guns, but in view of the death he had just made, the young man decisively thought that it was better not to continue to stimulate the other party here, so he turned his gaze to the side with a haha: "Discount or something, you are so polite, in fact, there is no need for this at all." But what about the person who can make the decision to give me the skill for nothing, and the other party really looks very dangerous, how exactly are you going to deal with her?"
The system muttered for about a few seconds: "Well, let's find a way to capture a mutated monster alive first, in the name of capturing it back and sending it to Matthias for research." I can also detect the abyssal creatures that have been hung, but it's better to be alive. ”
Nakiris, after being slapped in the face repeatedly, finally couldn't help but choose to become huge, and there was a sudden shake outside, but Nangong Rong completely ignored these, he just stared at his watch suspiciously: "Testing? You mean, what can be analyzed by getting close to the other party?"
"After all, I don't have a special means of detection, so you'd better not expect too much. But it shouldn't be much of a problem to do some analysis through the results of the test, not to mention that the opponent is still Stephanie, and our alliance has not yet figured out her newly awakened abilities, so this is a good opportunity. Because if it is a clone with limited strength, she probably doesn't have the ability to disguise and disguise this ability, and there is no need to do so in places that are out of the reach of this alliance. ”
Nangong Rong nodded lightly to show understanding, since there is a boss (although it may be just a doppelganger projection) hidden in this world, it must be right to know some information about the other party: "Understood, just wait and see." ”
After the system fell silent, the boy quietly looked outside. There was already a monster with a cracked belly and fell to the ground, probably hanging, judging from the wound, it should be Octavier's masterpiece. At this moment, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess also behaved more calmly than before, a spear was waving in the girl's hand, and from a distance, it looked like a flexible dragon coiling around her......
With a loud bang, a monster sneaking up on the back slapped its [hand], which was already about the size of a bug, on the shield of Octavir's back, causing the majestic girl to fly out in horror and roll on the ground.
Sure enough, "a little cold came first, and then the gun came out like a dragon" or something, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is full of floating clouds, and she can only play tricks, and she is just good-looking on the scene, and if she really wants to fight, it is even more watery than Nakiris. However, this is limited to the girl's martial arts, and her ability to control wind magic has obviously become stronger and stronger in the past few days, and Nangong Rong feels that Octavir should change careers to become a magician.
It's not the worst, and it's okay to be a melee mage. The enemy fought hard and finally rushed to the girl with a barrage, and when she was full of thought that she could finally destroy the flowers with her hands, she didn't agree with a word, and decisively raised her gun, and used half a bottle of vinegar martial arts to paste the other party's face, and then successfully delayed until other friends rushed over to rescue and eliminate the enemy.
But the boy didn't bother to suggest it to Octavier, and besides, the girl wouldn't necessarily listen, she had her own way of fighting. What's more, the boy can feel that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess's attitude towards him is not so much a partner, but rather a temporary team that he finds that his ability is not bad without much choice, and if it is not for the healing spell is very special, it is estimated that the girl will choose to use it and throw it away.
Of course, on the surface, Octavier will definitely not behave so obviously, nodding and smiling when they meet, and saying hello amiably and so on, just like she did in the academy before - other classmates may feel the cultivation of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess because of this, and even think that Nangong Rong is not worthy of the girl's doing, but the young man knows very well in his heart that the eldest princess is actually not really smiling at himself.
However, for Nangong Rong, who has long been accustomed to similar things and has always been calm, this does not prevent the young man from assisting Octavier, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess just wants to give her face on weekdays, and she can't get along with others on important matters.
So Nangong Rong didn't hesitate to throw out a healing technique at the girl, whether she was injured or not, anyway, she would brush the blood first. In view of the fact that the duration of the blessing spell was still left, the boy used his control and curse skills against the monsters near the eldest princess, as long as it could hinder the opponent for a short time.
Don't forget that there was a large group of soldiers watching not far away, and their support firing never stopped.
Several wolf-like monsters who tried to take advantage of Octavir's rush to the streets slowed down a lot, and one even stopped because of the machine-gun fire. In the past, when they faced the machine gun, they only made a simple defense to protect the important parts of their body and directly ignored them, but now they were forced to stop the charge, and the carapace on the surface of their bodies was even broken, and Nangong Rong's eyes immediately became bright when he saw this.
Pain enhancement is really a very useful skill, and it is very popular with teammates to be able to farm blood and shield to enhance attack and defense, and it seems to be good to control the enemy to death, but if your own attack power is insufficient and it is difficult to cause damage to the enemy, how much effect can adding blood and control play in turning the tide of the battle at all, right?
Inflicting buffs on oneself may be another way of thinking, but unfortunately the boy only has one skill to increase defense now, which is not the most needed for his teammates who don't have many good ways to defend themselves with the amazing defense of abyssal creatures.
After the battle is over, let's see what kind of skills will be unlocked by the next level of permission.,If you can, it's best to have a skill that can increase the attack.,So that you can form a combo with the strengthening of pain.。 Nangong Rong was thinking so mentally while throwing skills at the monster one after another, he didn't notice that a black and inconspicuous spider on the ceiling of the room was looking at him carefully.
After all, the boy wasn't some long, straight black girl who was selling strange scarecrows to some willing dead guy at midnight, and it wasn't strange that he hadn't noticed the spider's gaze or anything. But soon the boy had a hard time not noticing the other party, because the spider suddenly opened his mouth and made a sound.
"I really didn't expect that I was going to kill the newly-born Son of the Plane, but I found a small thing from the Alliance and its users. Out of the reach of the Alliance, Emilina, are they going to use this toy to fight against the abyss, don't laugh at the dead. However, leaving it alone is a hidden danger after all, so let me send you on your way with my own hands!"
It was a sweet but low and cold girl's voice, and the tone was so cold that it made people feel that their bone marrow was about to be frozen solid, which made Nangong Rong's hair stand up on the spot.
The system in silence directly exclaimed: "Stephanie, why are you ......?"
Why is she here? Of course, they didn't really come here, but they just made a spider as an eyeliner and climbed onto the old man's clothes as a guest and entered the room, and after the battle began, they leaned on the ceiling and watched the battle outside. If the situation is not good, the mutant monster can't clean up Octavier, who was the original target, then Stephanie will manipulate this spider and will go into battle herself, but Nangong Rong will take the system to throw skills at her subordinates under the nose of the boss, is there anything more deadly in the world?
Old man Toronso should have been attacked by the alliance's special forces before, and he knew some about their situation, and knew that the other party might take actions to sacrifice himself, so he specially formulated this bait plan, but unfortunately the old man never thought that the real target of the enemy was not him, but Octavier. After Her Royal Highness the eldest princess was in danger, Nangong Rong naturally chose to help, and then received Stephanie's attention, and everything happened naturally.
The reason Nangong Rong is clear, but he is really not mentally prepared to face the boss now, even if it is just a puppet controlled by the other party.
When the boy looked up, he didn't see a spider, all he could see was a small glowing ball of dazzling eyes, and the lilac energy was tumbling and boiling violently inside, as if it would burst at any moment. Obviously, this little thing's biggest role as an eyeliner is to explode, and it can completely take away the target at a very close distance, and it is perfect for dealing with people who are defenseless or exhausted.
Nangong Rong didn't have time to make any moves, even if his body could react, it would definitely not be able to match the speed of the other party, and at this moment, out of the corner of the young man's eye, he suddenly saw Octavir wielding a spear to force back several monsters that tried to get close to him, and then turned his head to look over here, obviously noticing the abnormal changes that had occurred in the inner room.
If Her Royal Highness the eldest princess can apply a shield to Nangong Rong, even if it is a soap bubble that bursts with a poke in a hurry, it is better than nothing. After all, the boy's abilities are there, he can strengthen the shield to resist the impact of the explosion that is close at hand, and the chances of survival may be low, but in the end it is better than no shield.
As long as the boy didn't burp on the spot, then he could use healing techniques to save his life, and at worst, he could survive until he was carried onto the operating table for rescue.
In fact, Octavir did raise his hand and threw out a protective spell, and the beautiful cyan light quickly slashed through the air like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it came to the top of Nangong Rong's head, and then swept straight over the young man's head, and finally attached to the door to the inner room where Duke Toronso was hiding.
Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess chose to keep the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements at a life-and-death point, although the possibility of the other party being affected by the explosion was actually not very great, rather than choosing to try to keep her titular partner, Nangong Rong, no matter how much soy sauce the boy had played before and how much help he had given her.
To be precise, what girls really choose is politics. After all, it doesn't matter if Nangong Rong hangs up, but if Old Man Toronso receives the bento, the impact on the empire will be very great, especially now that the whole world is facing a strange biological threat in addition to the alliance, the girl must ensure that she can stabilize the situation of the empire and concentrate all her forces to fight against it.
Therefore, even if you have no choice but to admit some sacrifices.
Regarding Octavier's reaction, Nangong Rong was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly in relief. As a royal family and a figure in power, there is naturally nothing wrong with the girl choosing this way, and the teenager is not incomprehensible, but if you really accept it......
"It's a shame to hang up on such an interesting sample, right?"
Just before the lilac ball of light in front of him turned into a dazzling sun enveloping him, Nangong Rong suddenly felt as if he had heard someone muttering to himself in a trance.
