Chapter Thirty-Eight: Tempering
In the tent, the one-handed axe sharpened the blade of the axe in his hand with a whetstone, but his eyes glanced out from time to time.
The fat man was lying on the ground and taking a nap, while the fire ** man and the shaman witch doctor couldn't sit still at all. Every few minutes, they would step out of their tents and take a look outside.
More than half an hour has passed since Lin Fei and Mo Ke'er left.
"You two don't look at it, now we can only wait for news from the thief, if he succeeds, we can live, if he fails, we will rush down and fight with those wild boar people!" The one-handed axe said, and sharpened the blade of the axe.
Now, it was clear that their only chance was to enlist the help of the orc Mokir. If this orc can help them deal with Grims, then everything will be easy.
But how likely is that?
The orc's words just now, the one-handed axe also heard, killing 40 boar people, and it was on expert difficulty, this can be said to be an extremely crazy move. If the thieves unfortunately die outside, then the four of them probably won't survive.
"No. 1065, Lao Tzu's life is pinned on you, you must succeed!" The one-handed axe looked out of the tent, and there was a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
On the other side, Lin Fei walked quickly among the vines, sometimes he lifted the stealth state and was running quickly like a cheetah, and sometimes entered the stealth state, as if a wandering shadow was moving silently, but no matter what, he could well avoid the sight of the wild boar people, even if he walked between several wild boar people, he was also at ease, quite a master's demeanor.
This is also the method he has just learned from Moktor.
At first, Lin Fei was not suitable, he couldn't even keep up with the speed of Mok'er's travel, he was often stabbed by thorns, and even almost found by the boar people several times. But slowly, Lin Fei got the hang of it, and his speed increased.
This kind of stealth skill switching,Can greatly increase the speed,After all, stealth is a skill to deceive the enemy's eyes,And only when used within the enemy's visual range,Will exert the greatest effect of the skill。
In addition to the use of stealth, Lin Fei has also gained a lot in combat skills, and even made a qualitative leap. In the past 10 minutes, Lin Fei had already cooperated with Mok'er to kill 4 wild boar people.
This can definitely be called the word 'efficiency', every time he kills a wild boar man, Mok'er has to ask Lin Fei to start by observing and hiding, then sneaking closer, and finally attacking at the right time.
All the actions were done in one go, and there were a few times when Lin Fei couldn't parry. Fortunately, every time this happens, the orc will stand up and take out the boar people with an almost tyrannical attack.
Obviously, he was training himself.
"Remember, if you can't kill the enemy in the shortest amount of time, then, for every extra 1 second, your death may be doubled, so every time we attack, we must be accurate and deadly!"
After ambushing a lone boar man again, Mok'er Lin Fei said.
Lin Fei nodded, and then carefully pondered Mo Ke'er's actions just now in his mind.
When he encountered a wild boar man guard again, Mo Ke'er said to Lin Fei: "This time, you go alone, remember, we are thieves, and we must break out the greatest damage in the shortest possible time!" ”
Lin Fei, who had already made a great gain, nodded, and then rushed over quickly, and entered a stealth state at the moment when the wild boar man guard turned his head.
Obviously, the wild boar man guards didn't notice Lin Fei, and in the next second, Lin Fei had already circled behind the other party, suddenly appeared in shape, and then stabbed out the 'shadow attack' without hesitation.
Disarming stealth and then attacking was one of the techniques that Lin Fei learned from Mok'er, because in this way, he could burst out with all his power without any scruples.
A purple halo was wrapped around the skinning knife, and it stabbed into the boarman's neck at an oblique angle.
"Your shadow attack deals 25 damage to the Boar Man Guard, activates the 'Bleed' effect, and in the next 7 seconds, the opponent will lose a total of 49 damage!"
Seeing the effect of this attack, Lin Fei's heart moved.
The same skill, the same attack, after slightly changing the penetration angle and increasing the instantaneous explosive power, the damage has also increased accordingly.
Next, Lin Fei dodged the attack of the boar man guards, and then rushed over with his whole body, stabbing the skinning knife again. This time, the angles are more tricky, and the explosiveness after the stab is even more amazing.
"Your attack deals 39 damage to the Boar Guards......"
Slowly, the damage caused by Lin Fei's attacks increased.
One minute later, the boar man collapsed with a bang.
Compared to the last time it took to fight the boar man guards, this time Lin Fei had shortened the time by half, and this monster didn't even have a chance to escape.
"It's good, but don't rely too much on skills, skills are the same as weapons, the same thing, different people use it, the effect is also completely different, don't worry, experience is slowly groped out, let's continue!"
Mocker looked at the fallen boar man, although his mouth was preaching, but the surprise in his eyes could not be concealed.
In his eyes, human beings are not comparable to their orcs in terms of physical fitness and strength. But the young human thief in front of him shook Mok'er's still strong heart with his almost 'perverted' learning ability.
Not to mention anything else, it was the action of assassinating the wild boar man just now, a full twelve knives, almost hitting the vital point, and the angle and timing of the stab were just right, and the explosive power of the muscles was also very considerable. The most powerful thing is that this human thief's dodging action is perfect, and the boar man's attacks all fall into the air, which even Mokel himself can't do.
And then, Mo Ke'er felt more and more the horror of this human thief, because the time it took Lin Fei to kill the wild boar man was getting shorter and shorter.
The tenth boar man guarded in 51 seconds.
The sixteenth Boar Man scout, 45 seconds.
After killing the twenty-seventh wild boar man, Lin Fei only took less than 30 seconds.
In the end, Lin Fei also came to a conclusion, that is, if he eliminated some unnecessary actions and overcame the hesitation caused by fear, he could greatly shorten the time to kill monsters.
It turns out that fear is the biggest obstacle that prevents a person from becoming a strong person, and as long as he crosses it, a kitten can become a tiger.
At this moment, even Mokel didn't know what to say, and in the past hour or so, the progress of this human thief can only be described by the word 'exaggeration'. He is like a dry sponge, constantly sucking nutrients.
Now, Lin Fei began to understand the true meaning of thieves, the reason why this profession is called 'Walker in the Shadows' is because of their exquisite hiding skills, and the 'stealth' skill is just an auxiliary means, and any skill needs to be tempered like a thousand times to exert the greatest effect.
In addition, the thief, a profession that has mastered many assassination techniques, has extremely powerful instantaneous explosive power, attacks quickly, one-on-one, and can rely on strong lethality to kill enemies who are several times stronger than themselves.
Of course, if you face more than 1 enemy, then the situation is different, but if this situation occurs, it can only mean that this thief is not a good thief.
After more than half an hour, Lin Fei and Mo Ke'er finally finished killing the 40 wild boar people. Among them, most of them were killed by Lin Fei one-on-one.
This allowed Lin Fei to be rewarded with a total of 18 hours of time, in addition, three pieces of equipment of quite good quality.
"Betrayer's Blade, two-handed weapon, quality (blue), damage 27-41, required strength 20, durability 35, blue quality additional attributes: 10% chance to hit the target and inflict a 'heavy hit' effect, causing the target to stun for 2 seconds."
"Ravoracious Belt, Quality (Blue), Defense 9, Storage Slot (8), Endurance 55."
"Hardwood crossbow, quality (white), ranged damage 9-13, with crossbow bolts (37)."
This is quite a bonus, as it is an Expert difficulty dungeon, so the quality of the dropped items is very high. Lin Fei immediately took off the tabula rasa belt on his body and replaced it with the 'Greedy Belt'. Not only did it increase the overall defense by 7 points to 62, but it ended up with 8 storage slots.
The two-handed weapon 'Betrayal Knife', Lin Fei couldn't use it, he could only put it away temporarily, but the last hardwood crossbow was also equipped by Lin Fei.
Even if it is a melee class, sometimes, it needs to be assisted by a ranged weapon, and this hardwood crossbow that can be used without much training is obviously the best choice.
"Human, your progress has surprised me, there is no doubt that you have passed my test, and now, we should go to trouble Grims!"
The orc Mok'er said to Lin Fei from the bottom of his heart.
In the next second, a prompt that the task was completed appeared in front of Lin Fei's eyes.
"Quest, Slayer, complete, get a reward for 8 hours."
Counting the 20 hours he had exchanged for a shield before, as well as the 18 hours and task rewards he got from killing the boar man, Lin Fei saw that the time on his clock had skyrocketed to 61 hours and 39 minutes.
This was the first time that Lin Fei had had so much time since he entered the Demon Chapter World.
At the moment, Lin Fei almost did not hesitate and chose to upgrade his level.
Originally, his level was level 2, and it took 49 hours to upgrade, but after choosing to upgrade, the time on the clock was directly reduced to 12 hours, which made Lin Fei sigh that he was a little rich just now, but in the blink of an eye, he became a poor egg again.
Time is hard to earn, but when you spend it, it is absolutely as unaware as running water.
However, upgrading to a level 3 contractor made Lin Fei feel that everything was worth it.
First of all, his four attributes are automatically increased by 1 point, reaching 9 (3) for strength, 14 (3) for agility, 9 (3) for stamina, and 7 (3) for intelligence.
In addition, Lin Fei also got 5 free attribute points.
