Chapter 44: The Healer
Xu Hao walked forward about twenty meters with a black face, suddenly stopped, and said coldly: "Do you think that there is a task limit, and I can't do anything about you?" β
When Concubine Yu, who was walking behind, heard this, she snorted slightly, with an expression that I don't believe what you can do to me, but in fact, she began to feel a little apprehensive in her heart.
Xu Hao turned around, stared at Concubine Yu's stubborn face, and said slowly: "Believe it or not, I don't have to do it myself, I have more than one way to let you die here now." β
His tone was as plain as water, but when the words fell on the ears of Concubine Yu and Shen Jia opposite, it was like a flash of thunder, and the two of them shuddered in their hearts.
"I scare people at every turn, I don't have any grace at all..."Concubine Yu puffed out her cheeks, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look directly at Xu Hao's eyes that were as deep as the sea and filled with danger.
The rabbit will jump off the wall when he is in a hurry, how strong this cold man is, she has already witnessed it with her own eyes, if she really annoys him completely, maybe she and Shen Jia will really lose their lives.
Although she was very impulsive, she was not without reason, and at this moment she began to think about how to ease the relationship between them - she never gave up the idea of pulling Xu Hao on her thief ship.
Before this, Concubine Yu had already seen some demon hunters, but none of them could give her a powerful feeling of not being afraid of any demonic creature at all like Xu Hao in front of her.
Now as long as she follows him, she has a very full sense of security, as if even if a group of demonic creatures appear in the next moment, she doesn't have to worry about her safety at all.
Seeing that the two girls stood still, Xu Hao turned around and walked away - what he said just now was not just a threat, as long as Concubine Yu and Shen Jia came to entangle again, he would really destroy the flowers.
"Hey, wait a minute."
As soon as she saw that Xu Hao was about to go away, Concubine Yu subconsciously ran up, as if she felt Xu Hao's emotions about to explode, she explained as she walked: "We didn't mean to annoy you, we just want to cooperate with you and complete this task together, and we won't hold you back." β
"Not interested!" Xu Hao refused without hesitation.
"Sister Concubine, forget it." Shen Jia, who caught up, pulled Concubine Yu, Xu Hao's words just now really scared her, so much so that she didn't dare to look at this man who exuded a dangerous aura all over her body now.
Seeing that Xu Hao showed no signs of stopping, Concubine Yu gritted her teeth and shouted, "You may not need me, but my companion is a healer, and she will definitely be able to help you!" β
"Sister Concubine, don't beg him, he won't agree." Shen Jia said urgently.
But Xu Hao, who heard this, suddenly stopped, turned around slowly, his eyes fell on Shen Jia's body, and he looked up and down before he said expressionlessly: "Are you really a doctor?" Where is your scepter of light and darkness? β
As soon as Concubine Yu heard Xu Hao's question, she immediately became excited, and without waiting for Shen Jia to answer, she quickly said: "Yes, she is a healer, she knows the four-character proverb, the Damage Immunity Technique, and the Hand of the Oracle, as well as her talent is very useful, she will definitely be able to help you!" Oh yes, Scepter, Jiajia, get your weapon outβ"
Just like selling her own goods, Concubine Yu kept urging Shen Jia, who was reluctant to cooperate at first, and after glaring at Concubine Yu a few times, she reluctantly took out something like a branch from the storage space.
This half-meter-long branch didn't look anything special except for the faint glow it emitted, but as soon as the red mist around it approached Shen Jia, it would automatically disperse; At this time, Shen Jia, who was holding this branch, had a much stronger breath.
"Sure enough, it's a healer, and it seems that I'm lucky." Xu Hao nodded secretly, and his mood was a little better.
Although the Healer, as one of the six major demon hunter classes, has a very large team role, it is the most unpopular class.
According to Xu Hao's experience in his previous life, the proportion of the healer profession in all demon hunters is estimated to be less than 5%.
In other words, out of 20 newborn demon hunters, only one healer can be born.
Perhaps it was because the name of the healer profession originally gave people the impression that they specialized in hard work and had little combat power, so that most witchers initially chose classes such as boxers, swordsmen, and swordsmen, followed by assassins and archers.
But in fact, a grown healer, his combat effectiveness is not inferior to other professions, and at the same time, he also has a variety of powerful auxiliary martial arts, and his life-saving ability is extremely strong, and he will also be one of the most important roles in each demon hunter team in the future.
Unlike other classes of witchers, the Healer basically had no attack ability at the beginning, but this class already had three auxiliary functions of martial arts at the beginning.
Four-character motto: It can be used by yourself and other demon hunters, and you can increase the value of any of the target's combat power attributes (strength, physical perception, agility) in the early stage, and the effect is very good.
Oracle Hand: An ability to heal injuries and speed up recovery.
Damage Immunity: Can be used on both oneself and other witchers, minimizing damage from an enemy once. It can only be used once a day, and it is also the most important auxiliary martial art for healers, and it can save people when it is critical.
The above three auxiliary skills all have a good life-saving effect, so although there are few healers, and even basically no attack ability in the early stage, it is the class with the highest survival rate among the demon hunters.
In addition, the Healer's gift, the Heart of Light and Darkness, is also very effective, which can greatly speed up the recovery of the Demon Hunter, and can be used by both himself and others.
This talent also has an additional effect: the power of source energy, which can automatically absorb the thin remnants of heaven and earth vitality on the earth, making the healer the only one of the six professions that can restore the vitality of the dantian on its own without the need for source stones.
Of course, the efficiency of this is very low, and it is several times slower than the normal absorption of source stones.
Despite this, when the witchers of many other classes did not have enough source stones to recover their vitality in the early stage, this talent effect of the healer still seemed very useful, giving those who were lucky enough to become the healer's endurance.
To sum up, the healer is a profession that completely serves the team in the early stage, whether it is talent or three auxiliary martial arts, it can effectively increase the survivability of the team.
In the future, a team of witchers without healers will not last long in the Scarlet Age.
Xu Hao has always wanted to find a powerful healer to become his partner, preferably the kind of holy energy doctor who has the talent of light and darkness.
The effect of the healer's martial arts is not only gain, but also many martial arts that can greatly weaken the target's ability, the so-called light and dark dual cultivation talent, that is, the healer who can perfectly master these two martial arts, they are also called the healer of the holy energy.
There are very few healers with the dual cultivation talent of light and darkness, each of them is very powerful, and Xu Hao knew no more than 5 in his previous life.
Similar potential is like Leng Xiaogang, he has a body that can perfectly fit the talent of the boxer, others can only exert ten points of power of his own talent at most, but he can exert twelve or even thirteen points of power.
As long as this kind of person doesn't die, it's only a matter of time before he becomes a top powerhouse in his career. So Xu Hao never worried that Leng Xiaogang would not be able to grow up, even if his brain was not very useful.
Because the healer has outstanding auxiliary abilities, after discovering that the Shen Jia in front of him is a healer, Xu Hao's eyes lit up, and he had the idea of wanting to use his auxiliary martial arts to enhance his strength, and then be more confident in completing the current B+-level task.
He asked Shen Jia, "Did you use the Damage Immunity Technique today?" β
Concubine Yu hurriedly replied: "No, she hasn't used it yet." "Actually, it was used on her body not long ago.
"I'm asking her, not you, please shut up, okay?" Xu Hao glanced at Concubine Yu coldly, and once again set his eyes on Shen Jia.
"I, I..." Facing Xu Hao's gaze as pressing as substance, Shen Jia felt as if her shoulders were pressing on a mountain, and her breathing became unsmooth, even if Concubine Yu kept giving her a look, she didn't have the courage to deceive Xu Hao.
"I've used it, I'm sorry..."Shen Jia's voice was very small, and in the end, the three words "I'm sorry" were actually said to Concubine Yu, who now had an expression of hatred for iron and steel, and then looked at Xu Hao nervously, with a little pleading in his eyes, and a pitiful look.
Xu Hao ignored this crazy woman who had fought with him several times in his previous life, and said to Shen Jia: "Originally, I was going to spend some source stones to buy your damage immunity technique this time, but you no longer have today's damage immunity technique, so the gold content of you, a healer, will be greatly reduced, and it will not be of much use to me." β
"Oh..."Shen Jia whispered, for some reason, she was relieved that she was not favored by Xu Hao. This man is putting too much pressure on her.
"Even if you don't have a damage immunity technique, her four-character motto is very useful, I don't believe you can try it, and that damage immunity technique can be restored tomorrow, and it can be used on you when the time comes." Concubine Yu said unwillingly.
"I only need today's damage immunity technique, and tomorrow everyone will go-" Xu Hao had just finished the first half of his sentence, and suddenly there was a fierce gunfire in the distance.
The perception of the archer is the highest among all professions, and Xu Hao not only heard the sound of gunshots, but also faintly captured the sound of the demon owl, and there were more than one.
"Over there!"
Xu Hao looked in the direction where the sound source came from, and then opened his Demon Hunter Emblem to check the location of the other Demon Hunters.
"Hmph, it's them."
"I hope you don't die too early, it's going to be boring..."
"Well, according to the urine nature of the Demon Hunter Crest, it's time for this big demon to come out, and it's okay, I don't want to wait any longer."
Xu Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked at Shen Jia and said, "If you don't want to die, you can come with me!" With that, he turned and ran towards a residential building opposite.
"What does heβwhat does he mean?" Shen Jia said a little confused.
"What are you doing in a daze, let's go!" Although she understood that Xu Hao just called Shen Jia alone, Concubine Yu didn't care so much, she directly pulled up Shen Jia and ran after Xu Hao...
