The crimson flames pierced the darkness of the night.

Not far from the camp, the figures of Lindsay and Red flickered and flickered, the weapons in their hands leaving a distinct trail in the air.

Each time the blade hits, it erupts into fierce flames.

This stems from the nature of the weapons in the hands of the two men.

A month ago, a volcanic eruption beneath the swamp was good news for Lindsay.

As early as the hidden frontier, he had accumulated a large number of meteorite ingots.

But most of the crafting lists of meteorite ingots require obsidian, the material that appears during volcanic eruptions.

Lindsay didn't get much obsidian.

But it's also enough to build armor and weapons in your hands, and even updates Red's equipment.

[Weapons: Shining Flame Dagger/Spear]

[A high-level weapon made of meteorites that contains strong flame energy, causing a violent burning effect at all times; Throwing essentia into battle will cause the weapon to burst into flashes and gain the [Smelt] perk. (Smelting: A property that melts enemy weapons at high temperatures.) ）】

[A high-grade weapon made of meteorites that is worth a lot of money.] 】

The speed of the fight in the night is getting faster and faster.

The moment when the spear and dagger intersected again, the two of them took a step back.

"You're a third-stage awakened person now?"

Lindsay asked.

Because I train with Red every day.

He clearly remembered the number of times the opponent's strength suddenly increased.

[Contact essentia] - [First ascension 30 days ago] - [Second ascension 21 days ago] - [And today]

If this kind of recovery also corresponds to the advanced rules of the normal awakened.

That means that the girl in front of her is already a third-stage awakened person.

Even if the lifting interval is lengthening.

But that's only a month!

"When I left the basin today, I felt a little bit of it." Red also opened her mouth to respond. "Lindsay, the following trick is also new, pay attention!"

The words landed, and the girl's figure charged again.

Lindsay was also focused.

With his means, dealing with a three-stage awakened person will definitely be caught.

But this is not a life-and-death struggle after all, and many tricks cannot be used on the other party, so it is safest to be cautious.

Brush Brush Brush!

In an instant, the red figure scattered and flickered as it charged, leaving several afterimages in the air.

Illusion? Afterimage?

Still is......

In high-speed hand-to-hand combat, an action is about to be completed in the blink of an eye.

Some predictions flashed through Lindsay's mind, and she blocked in her hand.

But then, he discovered that these remnants were not illusions, but threatening entities!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of three weapons clashing almost in a row rang out.

Then all the afterimages dispersed, and the red figure stabilized on the leftmost figure.

"You guy, you're too fast!"

The girl put away her weapon, she was willing to gamble and lose.

Since none of today's new tricks could help Lindsay, she is willing to accept such a result.

Lindsey pouted:

"If I'm slowing down, I'm going to be stabbed by you."

Red smiled and patted Lindsay on the back:

"Don't worry, if I'm better than Ling one day, I will definitely show mercy when I do it."

"And I'll thank you in advance!" Lindsay and Red returned to camp together, and on the way, they were inevitably curious about this skill, "What is the principle of your skill just now?" I'm pretty sure that all afterimages are corporeal. ”

Red spreads out his palms very indifferently:

"I don't understand, it's natural anyway."

“……”

"The other Awakened would be mad with jealousy if they knew about you."

Red didn't care about this, and even laughed heartily:

"Will jealousy make them catch up with me?"

"Jealousy can make them malicious to you!" Lindsay couldn't help but complain, "You guy, you can be arrogant like this even if you have amnesia, God knows what you were like before?" ”

Hearing this, Red analyzed it seriously:

"Maybe there's a reason why I'm a essentia lost?"

Lindsay didn't continue to talk to the guy and began to get ready to rest.

However, after lying down in the synthetic bunk, he still inevitably analyzed the ability to become red.

Due to amnesia and essentia lost traits.

Neither he nor Red knew the skills that the girl once had.

But from the analysis of the specific changes when these three times the strength became stronger:

For the first time, she gained a keen insight into the vital points of the human body, and at the same time, her physique became stronger, and her combat effectiveness increased;

The second time, the perception ability has been greatly enhanced, and the blindfolded can smoothly adapt to blind combat, and the grasp of various details during the battle has also been enhanced;

The third time, this time, she was able to create a brief afterimage of the entity, and her improvement in actual combat was almost immediate.

"It's all about combat capabilities......"

Lindsey couldn't help but compare Red's skills to the school of war.

Both are skills that project abilities in battle, but An Rui's combat essence is closer to the tempering and sublimation of martial arts.

On the other hand, the red ......

The first stage of ability is to kill people.

The subsequent development of skills is also to further strengthen combat capabilities.

"This guy can't be some inexplicable villain, right?"

When Lindsay was struggling with whether she was saving the dragon or the princess, Hong, who was sleeping next to her, immediately noticed the movement.

"Lindsay, what are you doing?"

Lindsay decisively changed the subject:

"I wonder why you haven't slept yet?"

Red smiled softly, and then said his sleep preferences:

"Because it's so hot here, I don't feel well."

"Lindsay, let's find a cliff top to sleep on tomorrow, I still like to cool down."

Speaking of temperature, Lindsay remembered something again.

After obtaining the two magic patterns of fire and ice, he has a better ability to adapt to hot and cold climates.

The [Ice Badger Claw Pendant] obtained at the beginning can also be completely replaced by magic patterns in terms of function.

Syllable!

Lindsay threw the Ice Badger Claw Pendant out and smashed it directly on Red's head.

"If you don't like a cool place, just say it!" The girl's dissatisfied voice sounded, "Why are you throwing a stone at me?" ”

Lindsey explains, "It's a piece of equipment that can be worn to increase one's resistance to low temperatures. ”

"Oh?"

Red curiously picked up the Ice Badger Claw Pendant, and then asked:

"You don't use such a good thing yourself?"

Lindsay waved his demonic palm:

"Because I have a better one, I don't need this now."

The girl's voice immediately became dangerous:

"Good! I'm going to get the garbage that I don't need? ”

Lindsey replied without hesitation:

"If you don't want it, then give it back to me."

“……”

The girl was silent for a moment, and then smashed the [Ice Badger Claw Pendant] on Lindsay's head:

"Lindsay, give this back to you, I want that good one!"

Lindsay also raised her voice:

"It's good to have it, don't give me an inch!"

At night, bonfires flicker.

The planned break was declared bankrupt.

The two scuffled in the makeshift camp and began a new round of martial arts training.
