Chapter 272: Level 15 and New Skills

The time to level up is always extraordinarily long.

Fang Jin, who was active in the depths of the Dabie Mountain Demonic Beast Belt for several weeks, started a monotonous and boring hunting life with Xue Feifei. Except for the occasional resupply run out and the equipment was close to being scrapped, he was forced to return to the Shu County headquarters to rest and pay attention to the accumulated guild affairs, and he has been upgrading with all his strength at other times.

This kind of focused combat is undoubtedly a great test and tempering of will and endurance.

It's just that Fang Jin has long been accustomed to this kind of ascetic-like life, and his experience points have increased rapidly. With his company and encouragement, Xue Feifei also gritted her teeth and persevered.

Finally, the time came to the middle of September, almost half a year before the opening of the end of the world, Fang Jin finally used the strength improvement speed far beyond the previous life to rush the level to the 15th level!

The moment the golden light rose into the sky, the exhaustion accumulated in the past month disappeared in an instant with the hot current.

In addition to the improvement of the major basic attributes of the body, the vital professional skill tree has finally lit up a new line again.

While Fang Jin accepted Xue Feifei's congratulations, he quickly checked the three new skills he had unlocked.

Sword of Punishment, Badge of Guardian, Spear of Sacrifice!

【Sword of Punishment】

Holy Swordsman exclusive skill, which can be mastered at LV15.

Punish an enemy, dealing 250% of their Physical Attack as a single target and having a small chance to ignore enemy defenses.

Consumes 30 mana and has a 20 second cooldown.

The current skill level is 1/3, and LV18 is required for the next upgrade.

Note: All evil will eventually be punished.

【Guardian Badge】

Passive skills.

Draw special runes on your body to strengthen your defenses. -10% physical/magical damage taken and -10% debuff duration.

Skill level 1/1, cannot be upgraded.

Note: Survival is the strongest guarantee of combat effectiveness.

【Spear of Sacrifice】

Holy Swordsman exclusive skill, which can be mastered at LV15.

Drains a certain amount of self's health (up to 20% of your current skill level) and condenses it into a Sacrificial Spear, dealing the same amount of magic damage to enemies at a distance.

Within a certain range, the Spear of Sacrifice has the property of Sure Hit.

No mana is consumed, and the skill cooldown is 30 seconds.

The current skill level is 1/3, and LV18 is required for the next upgrade.

Note: The Holy Swordsman is fearless in his sacrifice!

Of the three major skills, the first two are easy to understand.

The Sword of Punishment is the first real explosive skill of the Holy Swordsman profession, and for Fang Jin, who only clicked on level 1 in the initial skill rekill, now he finally has the capital to kill other crispy professions in seconds. If you're lucky enough to trigger a low-probability ignore defense, even a high-level blood cow will be crippled by his sword!

There is no doubt that this is a must-complete skill.

The Guardian Badge is a level 1 passive, and the damage reduction effect is very powerful.

Because it's a percentage damage reduction, it may not be as good as the hardened skin of the warrior class in the early stage. But the further back you go, the more noticeable the effect becomes, enough to throw the hardened skin skill out of a few streets.

But this is not surprising, after all, one is a basic skill that can be learned at level 5, and the other is a hidden profession-exclusive skill at level 15, and the innate gap is there.

As for the Spear of Sacrifice, it is another long-range attack skill in addition to Wind Slash after the Holy Swordsman gradually enters the middle stage, and it is also a very powerful output skill.

It is characterized by hurting a thousand people and harming oneself a thousand!

Since the enemy may have a variety of means of reducing damage, he may actually only be able to injure 800 people or even less.

But this did not affect the strength of the Sacrificial Spear in the slightest.

After all, the Holy Swordsman class has good healing methods, and its HP is still superior to some crispy mages, archers, and thieves. Especially when it comes to one-on-one, the Holy Swordsman and the enemy directly fight for blood, which is simply incomprehensible!

What's more, the guaranteed range of this sacrificial spear is at least more than twenty meters, and the effective range is more than fifty meters!

Compared to the effect of the Wind Slash ten steps away, the Sacrificial Spear far surpassed the former in terms of instant explosion and killing distance.

But this skill, Fang Jin didn't plan to fill it up.

The reason is very simple, it is nothing more than the limitation of skill points, plus its full level is not cost-effective.

A level 1 Sacrificial Spear can sacrifice up to 20% of your HP; When level 3 is full, it's only 30%. In other aspects, it is nothing more than an increase in the range of the hit and a decrease in the cooldown.

But none of that matters.

After all, the Holy Swordsman still relies on swordsmanship and Holy Light skills to eat, and the meaning of the Sacrificial Spear is only to give the Holy Swordsman an additional long-range means of breaking out and chasing and killing. You can use it once in a while, but it's impossible to use it frequently.

After making the decision, Fang Jin invested three skill points to learn all the new skills.

With the infusion of skill information in the system, the Sword of Punishment and the Spear of Sacrifice are nothing, they are nothing more than too much information transmitted in an instant, and the head is a little stretched. The process of instilling the Guardian Badge as a passive skill is very special.

In Xue Feifei's eyes, the bright light energy began to gather on the key points of Fang Jin's body.

It took about seven or eight seconds to engrave one after another permanent holy light runes, which were linked to each other, and finally slowly disappeared from the skin.

Although there were no traces on the surface, Fang Jin could clearly feel that there was an extra layer of invisible protection on his body. Any attack that tried to hurt him had to penetrate the damage reduction of the equipment first, then go through this layer of protection, and finally the defense damage reduction brought by Fang Jin's own physical strength.

After personally feeling the effect of the guardian badge, Fang Jin nodded with satisfaction.

However, the mastery of the three new skills is only part of the strength increase that comes with advancing to level 15.

There are still a lot of skills that can be strengthened!

Basic melee has been increased from level 3 to level 4.

The wind slash has also gone from 3/4 of the original to the fullest. Not only is the damage dealt increased to 160%, but the additional bleeding effect is now guaranteed to trigger.

This is undoubtedly a qualitative change.

In addition, the stealth detection skill mastered at level 10 can also be learned at level 2 to further enhance the effect, range, and duration of anti-stealth.

Finally, there is the more important freedom skill.

Fang Jin had mastered the refraction that had been mastered since level 5 and helped him resolve countless troubles along the way, and he could finally reach the full level of level 3.

The effect has been increased to form 5 refractions, and the damage ratio of feedback has been greatly increased to 50%!

That's already a very impressive proportion.

If the enemy does not know the characteristics of the refraction, a series of attacks will be struck, and 5 refractions will be enough to return a total of 250% of the damage.

Of course, this is only an ideal situation.

In fact, as the enemy's strength increases, and the means and experience of facing the enemy become more abundant, it will be more and more difficult for the refraction to play perfectly.

Fang Jin had to grasp the timing of his use more accurately in order to block the enemy's key skills by surprise.

Then, if you help in the He'an base, you can also get the free skill Remnant Flame Mirror, which can also be upgraded to level 2.

After the enhancement, the mirror image lasts longer, and the proportion of attack damage of the inherited body has been increased from 30% to 40%!

After throwing out 8 skill points in one go, and quickly exhausting the skill points that he had saved and accumulated before, Fang Jin looked at the new skill list and took out the last silver skill book from the storage backpack.

It took him a lot of twists and turns, but it didn't change the super skill - instantaneous!
