Chapter 450: Barrett's Day (Part II)

[Death Knight's Cold (Enhanced): Transformation skill. The duration is "permanent", and the cooldown time is "2 hours" (the original effect was 1 day), which is based on the time of the main matter plane.

The Death Knight's frost power is nourished by the blood of the primeval white dragon, and the two are intertwined, making the ability even more powerful. When you use this skill, you will transform into a Death Knight with the undead type, and using this skill again will remove the skill effect. 】

Among the additional skills, the following changes are made (the original values are in parentheses):

[Body of Frost: Your body will be haunted by the Death Knight's Frost Breath, which increases Physical Resistance by 50% (30%), Magic Resistance by 30 (20%), and Cold Immunity. Each of your attacks deals an additional Cold Damage, which is 100% (50%) of the attack. When your opponent takes Cold damage for the first time, Strength, Constitution, and Agility are temporarily reduced by 1 point (previously only Constitution), and for every 10 times the enemy takes Cold Damage, the above three stats are reduced by an additional 1 point (previously only Constitution). Does not work against those who are immune to cold damage.

[Death Rider Advanced: You can master all the skills of the Death Knight Foundation and the Frost faction by learning, such as rune weapon crafting, Frozen Lands, Frost Impact, etc.] Frost faction abilities are easier to master, and their effects are increased by an additional 20% (there was no last one). 】

And after the gladiatorial battle with the primeval white dragon, during the period when Barrett had not regained his human form (the skill was still cooling), he tried to control the frost and mist like the white dragon, and did make some breakthroughs.

Now, after Barrett transforms into a Death Knight, he can use the power of frost in his body without the help of runic weapons. He could allow the frost to gather in his hands, eventually condensing into a single frozen spear that was crystal clear throughout. The hardness of the Ice Spear is similar to that of steel, much harder than ordinary ice, and it also has a good freezing effect after hitting the enemy, which is a long-range attack method that adds a bit of a dead rider form.

However, the entire ice spear currently takes 3 or 4 seconds to really condense and form, which is not suitable for some fierce battles, and can be used in positional battles, pursuits, or when pulling away to fight for attrition.

As for the other additional skills in the Deadrider form, such as 'Unstable Undead Body', 'Dominating the Undead', 'Soul Extraction', etc., there are no noticeable changes.

The 'Death Knight's Cold' can be regarded as Barrett's strongest skill at the moment, and the reason why he was able to resist the many attacks of the Ancient White Dragon with his physical strength that day, as well as the extremely shocking 'Frozen World', was mainly due to this skill. Of course, the 'crisis instinct' also played a big role at the time.

......

After combing through the equipment and skills he had gained, Barrett closed his eyes, leaned his head against the wall, and stretched out his left hand to rub his eyebrows. This kind of behavior of using mental power to spy inside the space ring for a long time made him feel quite tired.

After a while, Barrett opened his eyes and looked sideways out the window. Today's weather is really good, the blue sky is elegant and clean, and a few clouds are floating leisurely like a boat.

It was now close to noon, and the sun was shining brighter among the treetops, so Barrett got up and got out of bed, put the 'meat ball' in his hand on his shoulder, and walked out of the house again.

The lobby on the first floor of the hotel was quite crowded at this time, and all kinds of customers filled the tables one by one, and there were not even half empty seats left. Leslie, the innkeeper, used to tell stories of his adventures at lunch, and it seemed that this whole new story was just beginning.

"There have been many strange things in our multiverse, and adventurers are probably the group that has encountered this kind of thing the most. Have any of you ever encountered it?" asked the innkeeper.

"What kind of weird thing is?" asked a guest sitting in the corner.

"When you wake up and find yourself tied hand and foot, and there is an unidentified 'woman' next to you repeatedly touching your genitals, this kind of thing is weird. The red-bearded dwarf who was often present in the hotel said aloud.

The dwarf's answer caused laughter, whistles and cheers rang out in the hall.

"You're right, Beard Ironbeard, that thing is pretty weird indeed. The innkeeper smiled and agreed. "Is there anyone else you'd like to say? It seems that you don't like to share your experiences as much as I do, so let's move on with the story. ”

"This story takes place in ...... Let me think about it, about fifty years ago, the exact year is not well remembered. At that time, I had only just become an adventurer, and I was still a young man who didn't know much about anything. Leslie habitually lit his pipe, "I joined a group of adventurers called 'Bee Needle Cactus', and the captain was 'Phil Pike', a pretty reliable man. ”

Barrett had planned to leave the hotel and wander around the city looking for a place to solve the lunch problem. But the somewhat familiar name 'Phil Pike' stopped him in his tracks. The brute stood on the wall by the door, listening as carefully as the others.

"Captain Phil didn't know where to get an extremely ancient treasure map, so he took a dozen adventurers, including me, to follow the guidance of the treasure map to find the unknown treasure. Leslie briefly recounts the treasure hunt, which includes fierce and brutal battles, haunting puzzles, and internal entanglements that lead to quitting due to unknown treasure contents.

"After more than two months, we have finally found the final location marked by the treasure map in the territory of the Alpine kingdom 'Perero'. The innkeeper's tone became a little low, "The entrance to the place is a very inconspicuous cave hidden in the jungle, the cave looks quite ordinary, and without the hint of the treasure map, you would think that this is the lair of some violent bear." ”

"When I entered the cave, there were only six people left in the group, and three of them were newcomers who had been adventurers for less than a year, and I was one of them. Leslie pointed to herself. "At that time, we were all worried about whether we could get the final treasure with such a small number of people, because according to common sense, precious treasures are usually guarded by some powerful magical beasts, or strange monsters, or golems, puppets, etc. ”

But the eyeliner has already come to this last step, and there is absolutely no reason to give up leaving. After preparing outside the cave, Captain Phil took the lead, leading us into battle formations and moving cautiously towards the cave. Leslie took another puff of his pipe, "Luckily there wasn't any fighting, the cave was unusually quiet, not even a snake or a lizard or anything like that. ”

"At the end of the cave is a ruined ruin, with many strange devil-like statues collapsed, and some incomprehensible pictures on the walls. We don't have any real archaeologists in our team, and we can only rely on the experience and shallow knowledge accumulated from our daily adventures. Judging that this place should have existed for thousands of years, it is impossible to look at it anyway, it is impossible to build it after the establishment of the Magic Empire. ”

"After making sure that there were no guards, we searched the ruins many times, but we couldn't find even the slightest trace of the treasure. Only found a circle in the depths that had been completely deserted. The innkeeper exhaled a puff of white smoke, "There are four bronze columns around the circle, each with a metal chain the size of a small arm. The chains hung from a bronze column at one end, and the other end all pointed to the center of the circle, scattered there in a twist and eight corners, as if something had been locked at one point. ”

"There were no gold coins, no gems, nothing that looked valuable. Everyone in the team was quite disappointed. Captain Phil looked through the treasure map countless times, and finally determined that this was the site in his frustration. We wandered around the ruins for another two days before finally leaving empty-handed. ”

"And just as we were back in the city, trying to fill our stomachs with the tasks we could, something quite strange happened around us. The innkeeper's voice became low and empty, "Captain Phil called us together out of the blue that day, and his expression was extremely strange, as if something strange had happened. When some of the team members asked if they were going to discuss the mission, Captain Phil slowly shook his head. ”

Then he glanced at each of us with bloodshot eyes, and asked us in a low voice if he had seen a pure black cat following him, and the team members around him shook their heads, and some of them joked that it was because the captain had not rested well and was hallucinating. However, at that moment, I clearly saw a black cat with turquoise eyes, lying on Captain Phil's head. ”
