Chapter 155: Town Horror - The Second Skill
The attributes of the talisman 'Eternal Sleep' are quite good, and in some ways very powerful, making them suitable for use in such a harsh environment. However, what was described above made Barrett fall into deep thought.
It's clear that this is something that happened not so long ago, and it happened to him. This couldn't help but give Barrett a deeper understanding of this indescribable thing called [Mission Log] that was parasitic on his body or soul.
Not only can you clearly understand the long history of certain items or little-known private secrets, but you can also record everything that happens in front of you in real time.
It seems that neither the past nor the present can escape its record, so ......
Does it want to observe and record the future through me, or does it want to change through me?
Barrett is unknown. After all, "thinking" is not something he is good at. But one thing he was sure of was that it wasn't of good taste.
You say, why isn't my story exciting?" he scolded, dissatisfied.
......
After identifying the items in his hand, Barrett summoned the [Mission Log] again, ready to start selecting skills like last time.
This time, he was quite skillful in filling the purple skill bar with soul energy, and after that, a purple round crystal was generated again, and on the old sheepskin, such a row of contents also appeared.
【Task Log】
[Congratulations, caring adventurer, congratulations on earning skill points again and becoming more powerful. 】
What the hell is that? Barrett frowned at the man's teasing.
[From this time onwards, the three skills randomly assigned to you by the system will have a chance to repeat.] After you select a low-level skill that can be upgraded, the subsequent upgrade options for that skill will be more likely than other skills. Please pay attention to and plan your own upgrade plan. 】
[Talent - Demon Blade Upgraded to Level 2]
【Skill List】
[1. Primary Deflection Force Field: This skill is a passive skill. With this skill, the enemy's melee attacks will change their angle due to the effect of the force field.
A closer look at the ability: Light deflects when it hits water, as does enemy melee attacks against you. When this skill is selected, the enemy's attack angle will be randomly changed when close range, and the weapon that slashes into the neck will be changed to a blow to the shoulder, a miss, or of course, a head. As the skill level increases, the angle of the deflection will be more likely to move in your favor and increase the probability that the opponent will miss.
- 'Oh my God, what's wrong with my hand, I can't control how many I count!'
2. Blood Blade: When you use a weapon to hurt yourself and get blood, the weapon's attack power will increase by 15%, the skill duration is half an hour, the cooldown time is a quarter of an hour, and it cannot be upgraded.
Skill Details: There used to be a special combat technique that was characterized by hurting oneself first and then others, and the same is true of the effect of this skill. You can use the blade to lightly slash your fingers, or other parts of your body, and the blade can be stained with a single trace of blood to increase your combat power.
- 'With just a light sword, you'll be stronger!'.
3. Beginner Leather Armor Mastery: This skill is a passive skill. With this skill, when you equip leather armor, you will gain a higher defense bonus, as well as a small amount of agility and a small amount of magic resistance.
Skill Breakdown: What kind of armor should an adventurer wear? Linen clothes, studded leather armor, delicate chain mail, full body armor, whatever you like. However, when you choose this skill, the leather armor equipped on your body will give you some additional defense and stat bonuses.
Current Skill Level: +10% Physical Defense, +2% Magic Resistance, +1 Agility.
- 'Since there is a mastery of leather armor, there is naturally a mastery of cloth armor, a mastery of plate armor, and a mastery of lace side armor, and finally this defense is the highest ......']
Again, the system gives three skills with their own characteristics.
Barrett carefully read each skill several times, and automatically ignored the inexplicable words behind the 'horizontal line'.
He thought about it for a moment, and after a few minutes, Barrett moved the purple round crystal representing the skill point to the third skill, activating it.
The current situation of the first skill is too stupid and uncertain for him. Barrett wanted the enemy's attacks to be more accurate, so that he could dodge or block easily. If the enemy's attack suddenly and inexplicably changes direction halfway, that's the real horror.
But literally, this skill should be upgraded to a high level to have some effect. After all, a single abrupt miss could turn the whole situation around.
The second skill is really good, the 'price of a sword' is nothing to him, and the effect is real, and sometimes it may have unexpected effects.
However, the third skill seems to be better in his opinion, although the improved attributes are not much, but it is very comprehensive, and it can also be upgraded in the future.
Barrett mainly hesitated on the second and third skills, and in the end, the third skill was favored by him with the effect of increasing agility by 1 point and being able to upgrade again later.
After choosing the skill, he felt that the leather armor on his body seemed to be more comfortable than before, and his body was faintly lighter. He didn't know if it was the effect of the leather armor itself, or the effect of that 1 point of agility, or if it was just the effect of his own mental suggestion.
After about a cup of tea, the little ghost, who was waiting quietly with wide eyes on the side, finally couldn't help it, "Hey, big uncle, can I speak?" asked the little ghost in a very soft voice.
"You've said it. Barrett retracted his thoughts, turned off the [Mission Log], and rubbed his eyes in reply.
"What do you see?" the little ghost posted curiously, "Why does it change color?" she pointed to the dark silver tombstone in Barrett's hand, "Was it the stinky mage?"
"I don't know. Barrett flipped the small tombstone-shaped amulet in his hand, which was now renamed 'The Land of Eternal Sleep,' which was a fitting name.
"And what have you been doing all this time?" the little ghost pursed his lips, a little dissatisfied, "Do you sleep with your eyes open?"
Barrett ignored the question and didn't answer it, he straightened up from the bed and looked at the little ghost beside him, "Can you still go in now? In fact, he didn't know how she came out before.
"I don't know, but I can try. "Once I've been here, it's been able to imprison me any longer, and I don't know why." ”
As soon as the little ghost's words fell, her pale cyan spirit suddenly disappeared in place. Immediately afterward, her crisp voice reappeared in Barrity's mind, "I'm in, it's easier than I thought." Wow, it's so much more comfortable than before, and it's strange that I can still feel a little bit of warmth and sleepiness. ”
After saying that, she suddenly appeared next to Barrett with a smile and circled her, "But I still like to stay outside, it's just Eve herself, it's a bit boring." But Eve can talk to you clearly inside, and it's much better than before. ”
Barrett coughed and looked at little Eve with a serious face, "This, I'm going to ask you a more important question now, I hope you can think about it carefully, and then tell me your answer."
"What's the problem?" the little ghost floated in front of him.
"Do you want to stay with me as you did before, or do you want to stay here?" he carefully organized his words, "If you want to stay here, stay in this room, this space, I will leave this little tombstone, after all, it should belong to you." ”
The little ghost's eyes widened in panic when she heard Barrett's words, and it took her a while before she reacted, "You, are you leaving here, are you leaving little Eve?"
Barry nodded, "You know, I don't belong here. After bringing you back to this 'home', I will definitely leave. Also, I have other tasks to complete and battles with other monsters. He didn't know how to comfort him.
The little ghost bowed his head in frustration and remained silent. Barrett didn't rush, he quietly waited for her return.
After a long time, the little ghost slowly lifted his head and looked around the room again, focusing on the wind chimes on the edge of the window.
The next moment, the ethereal, ethereal wind chimes sounded again, with reluctance and nostalgia.
Little Eve sighed faintly, and then the smile returned to her face.
"Well, then let's go, big uncle. Let's go and beat up the big bad guys, go beat up a lot of big bad guys!"
