Chapter 23: The Touch of the Flame Serpent
"Adventurer, you have courage!" The homeless man stood up, and his figure, which was more than two meters tall, was particularly imposing.
The fat man looked up at each other, panicked.
"You took the initiative to challenge the Holy Sword Envoy, and the duel is about to begin!"
Hearing the system prompt, the fat man was in a cold sweat, and the holy sword made ...... It's a name that can be scary.
"! I was wrong, wrong......"
As soon as the homeless man grabbed his big hand, the fat man was lifted up like a little chicken, no matter how embarrassed the fat man begged for mercy, the other party ignored it at all.
With a bang, the door of the Bounty Hunters Guild was kicked off, killing four players on the spot......
The homeless man's eyes were boiling with war, he grabbed the fat man's collar and stepped on his feet, the stone slab on the ground exploded, and he jumped out dozens of meters away.
"O Vozhnyima! Brother Fan, help......"
The fat man's frightened soul was about to fall, and his hands were helplessly scratching in the air.
The homeless man bounced terrifyingly, stepped on the roof of the road and quickly shuttled through the streets of the main city, and soon came to a training ground with a large area.
The homeless man stood there like a mountain, with a momentum like a rainbow and a terrifying fighting spirit.
The fat man watched all this dumbfounded, and the next moment, the homeless man's left hand soared with black magic flames, and his right hand burst out with terrifying holy light.
"Two-handed magic sword!?"
The fat man's heart was shocked, his vision became blurred, and in a trance, it seemed that there was not a person standing in front of him, but a powerful and terrifying sword!
Turning a sword with both hands, this is the technique of a double-sword flow warrior!
And the tramp itself is the hilt of the sword!
"Let's get started, young man!" The vagabond's silver eyes flickered, making people feel frightened.
"S-Class Hidden Class Quest Opens - [Tempered by a Thousand Tempers]"
"If you die a thousand times, the mission will fail, and your experience points will be reduced each time you die until you successfully damage the Holy Sword Messenger."
The prompt appeared again, the fat man ran wildly in his heart, and the other party's level was as high as level 80, this is an egg!
Do you want to be abused a thousand times by stinky beggars?
……
-2250!
In an instant, the fat man's face was shocked, and his body fell back uncontrollably.
"Lao Tzu...... Is this being seconds? ”
Can the opponent's move ...... He didn't see it at all.
The fat man came back to his senses again, and the man was already standing at the nearest resurrection point.
An old silver B patted him on the shoulder, with a bright smile on his face: "How is it?" Isn't it cool. ”
The fat man looked at Lin Fan and was stunned for a long time, swallowing his saliva and scolding: "It's really cool to die, it's painless for a second......"
"That old rascal is too dick...... It turned out to be an S-class hidden class mission! Damn, I'm going to that grandson! The fat man said calmly, a flash of excitement in his eyes.
"Do it well, think clearly about each challenge before you go." Lin Fan chuckled.
Don't look at the fat man who usually likes to bluff, but this thing has never been cowardly when it encounters difficulties, and it is a typical iron-headed Hanhan.
Even if he is killed by a homeless man in seconds, this will only provoke his stronger side.
That homeless man is naturally not an ordinary NPC, but the head of the seven great sword envoys of the Light Dragon Empire's Sanctuary - Sword Saint Binghe!
In the backstory, the Templar Swordsmen are a group of magic swordsmen who wield the magic of light, but Binghe is an outlier.
This person is a cultivator of both light and darkness, and his strength is extremely terrifying.
It's just that the dark and light systems are inherently compatible, and dark magic users will be discriminated against and excluded in the Empire.
As a result, Binghe has not been treated well by the Imperial Temple, and spends his days drinking in the Bounty Hunter's Tavern.
In the previous life, there were not many players who knew about the task of [Tempering], but almost none could pass any assessment.
Not only is the mission full of difficulty, but it also requires a strict sense of operation for warrior players, and the most important thing is that every time you are killed, you will lose experience.
In order to get the S-level class awakening, there are many players who have been killed by Binghe hundreds of times and dropped to level 1.
However, Lin Fan has confidence in the fat man, in terms of operation level alone, the fat man in his previous life was one of the strongest demon swordsmen, and the only thing worse than others was the equipment and soul seal.
The fat man continued to challenge the Holy Sword Envoy Binghe, and Lin Fan took Efuya to the Mage Guild.
"Efuya."
A faltering, white-haired old man approached and looked at Efuya reproachfully.
Efuya pouted, went up and grabbed the old man's arm: "Teacher, I'm back." ”
"This old man is the Magister Issentri." Lin Fan muttered to himself in his heart.
D-class fire magic [Divine Sun Shield] is this old man's own magic.
The magic level is only a mere D-level, but as long as there is enough blue in actual combat, the defense of this magic is ridiculously strong, and it is not inferior to C-level or B-level defensive magic.
The only regret is that the magic level is too low to be able to use skill points to improve.
But it's enough to prove that the old man has a good command of magic.
"I'm lost...... It was this brave adventurer who escorted me back, Sensei. Efuya said with a blushing face.
The old man nodded with a straight face, and said sternly, "Why don't you go to the banquet held by the city lord?" Don't let your nobility be dishonored. ”
"Huh? Is this girl still a nobleman? Lin Fan was stunned.
"You've completed Eveya's Hidden Mission Sequence 2."
"Magister Eisentree has offered 50 silver coins as a reward for the mission, and you can choose to decline/accept."
Is the labor fee so cheap?
Lin Fan was a little speechless, it was not easy to take care of a sick girl, just helping her put on equipment would almost kill her.
"No thanks." Lin Fan shook his head lightly and refused the kindness.
"Wait a minute, adventurer, the mission of slaying demons is extremely difficult, and I have a volume of magic suitable for you to learn here."
As soon as Lin Fan turned around to leave, Old Aisen seemed to feel that it was undignified not to pay him, and took out a magic scroll as compensation.
Lin Fan was overjoyed, he knew that the hidden task would not be so simple, and sometimes the benefits of retreating would be doubled!
"C-rank Fire Magic [Flame Serpent's Touch]"
"One of the three Magisters of Edgar, Eisentri's own magic."
"Effect: Consumes 500 MP to create a Magical Flame Serpent, dealing 200+ Spell Attack damage to targets in the area, and dealing 300 burn damage with a cooldown of 1 minute."
"Current Level: Level 1"
"Special Effect Awakening when you reach max level 10."
Typical large-area AOE damage magic, the damage is considerable, that is, high blue consumption, and the cooldown time is too long.
However, this is not a problem for Lin Fan, who not only has an ultra-long range of more than 1500 meters, but also has a [Spirit Diamond] holy relic in his hand, which can not only reduce cooldown but also copy magic.
Standing a kilometer away, if you are lucky, you can release the three-headed flame snake at one time, which is definitely a devastating effect!
However, what Lin Fan cared about the most was the special effect that could be obtained by raising [Flame Snake's Touch] to the full level.
He remembered that only B-level and above powerful magic had characteristics, and this magic was only C-level but the special effect was awakened, which really made Lin Fan not expect.
At present, the entire auction house is not a B-level magic book, and there is not even a single B-level skill book for other professions.
There are very few C-level skill books, and the price of each one is more than 50 gold coins, which ordinary players can't afford at all.
Most of the skills that players can learn at this stage are only E/D grades in the job shop.
Bidding farewell to Efuya, Lin Fan immediately began to light up his skills.
"You consumed 1 skill point/40 credits, and your magic was increased to level 2."
"You consumed 2 skill points/90 credits, and your magic increased to level 3."
"You consumed 4 skill points/1.9 gold, and your magic increased to level 4."
……
The level of [Flame Snake's Touch] was raised to level 6, and Lin Fan began to sweat profusely.
The mage class is recognized as the most kryptonite class, and the number of skill points/gold required to upgrade skills is far higher than that of other classes.
All 30 skill points have been clicked, the skills have barely reached level 8, and more than 50 gold coins have been consumed, which is more than 50,000 yuan!
This is just C-level magic, and the amount of resources consumed will be further increased if it is replaced with higher-level magic.
"Hmm...... Fortunately, the numerical panel has been improved a lot. ”
Skill damage becomes 350+ spell attack damage, deals 470 burn damage, and reduces cooldown to 52 seconds.
"There are at least 20 skill points left, where can I get them?"
Lin Fan hesitated for a while, he was going to go to the elite dungeon [Dark Dungeon] in the city alone, but the first pass reward had already been taken by the people with dragon marks, and it didn't make much sense to get the single-brush achievement again.
"You've received an invitation from the City Lord."
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows, opened his mailbox and checked: "The City Lord sincerely invites the top 100 adventurers on the level list to attend the banquet at the City Lord's Mansion and discuss the plan to destroy the demons......
"You are currently ranked 27th in the ranking, and you have been qualified to participate in the side quest [Night Banquet]."
"Mission Description: This mission can be rewarded with a large number of experience points, skill points, and attribute points."
"This task is difficult, please do what you can."
Looking at the task prompt, Lin Fan's brows tightened, and his face changed slightly: "This task seems to be boring." ”
