Volume 1: The Awakening of the Lion Cub Chapter 22: Condensing Stars
"Battle Spirit!"
"Burst!"
With the shout, a huge and heavy force emerged from Basso Natu's body, and suddenly erupted towards Basso Natu's surroundings.
In the eyes of the onlookers, with Basso Natu as a dot, a burst of shockwaves visible to the naked eye, the same as before, reappeared, pushing everything away!
The light of the campfire flickered wildly, and it looked like it was almost extinguished.
Cui Ming was knocked out by the shockwave, he struggled to stand up, struggled on the ground, and finally spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then fell to the ground with a face full of unwillingness.
Will wasn't as unbearable as he was, and with the help of this shockwave, Will rolled backwards to unload his strength, and his hands were swept through a neat crack on the ground with the cracked wind, and then he barely stopped. Will's face turned pale, and he knew very well that the pressure he was facing was much smaller than that of Cui Ming.
It was clear that Basso Natu had shown mercy to his men.
After all, the difference between a biological son and an adopted son, whether it is in the Holy Race or among other races on this continent, is treated differently......
Will gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up straight, a mocking smile on his face.
"I didn't expect that a powerful hero-level powerhouse like you would face a teenager who was less than two mid-level warriors...... Do you want to use battle qi too?"
"Oh? Indeed, the two of you are indeed mid-level warriors, but you are a saint clan, and your thousand-year-old martial arts are enough to make up for the gap in strength, so I'm careful, not too much, right?"
"Hehe......"
Will looked at the smiling Basso Natu warily, trying to calm his breathing so that he could regain more strength in a short period of time.
At this time, in his mind, he recalled the content of the "Pan-continental History".
The powerhouses in this world, after a rough division, can be roughly divided into two major professions: warrior and mage.
Battle Qi and magic are the advanced abilities possessed by these warriors.
The warriors at the bottom use the strength of their bodies to fight, and these warriors are basically soldiers who are in conflict with the major forces.
And the mage does not have the bottom is not the bottom, because, on this continent favored by the gods, there are few people born with magical affinity, and the nobles can increase the probability of their descendants having magical affinity through bloodline secret techniques, but this kind of secret art is not something that all nobles can master, so magic has become a status symbol...... A symbol that is enough to raise a civilian's status up a big level.
The ranks of mages are actually relatively easy to divide.
At first, they would learn the use of magic from the scrolls, as well as some knowledge of alchemy and herbs, but at this time, they were only tested to be magical, but they could not use magic, and they were called mage apprentices.
After learning enough about magic and being able to successfully unleash the most basic "fireball" magic, or use their magic to drive the most basic "lightball" scrolls, they will become mage attendants.
Then, according to the magic they mastered, and the magnitude of the magical elements that could drive the natural world, they increased one by one.
Mage's Apprentice, Mage's Squire, Trainee's Mage, Beginner Mage, Intermediate Mage, High Mage, Magister, Magister, and then the Grand Magus......
According to the books, the measure of the archmage is to unleash a magic that can destroy an army of 10,000 people.
The division of the ranks of the fighters is more complicated.
When a certain level of physical strength is reached, the gifted warriors will awaken the battle qi, which is different from magic, but enough to allow them to move around the battlefield more freely.
It is said that the battle spirit was transmitted to the aborigines of this continent by the Holy Clan in ancient times, however, this is only a legend......
In the beginning, the warriors were trained to master the basics, at least on a par with those taught in the Roman legions. Such a warrior is qualified to be called a trainee warrior - this is the lowest rank among warriors.
After that, as more and more martial arts are mastered, the warriors will gradually go through the beginner warriors, intermediate warriors, and finally the advanced warriors......
High-level warriors are a watershed, after which high-level warriors can rely on their own talents, or through external methods such as medicine, magic, and even bathing in divine grace, to mobilize the battle qi in their bodies to match their bodies and use some enhanced martial arts.
The spirit of war is innate to people. It's just that some people are born with more battle energy, and they can easily break through the rank of high-level warriors and reach a higher rank. Others, who are not so lucky, ......
After the high-level warrior, there are three ranks corresponding to the mage.
They are, the Warrior Commander, the Great Warrior Commander, and the God of War Squire......
The seven ranks of the warrior correspond to the nine ranks of the mage, and below the middle rank, the warriors are often able to quickly close the distance between the mage and the mage through the explosive power that is stronger than ordinary people, and the mage who has no time to release the spell in the future and also has no time to dodge is pressed to the ground and ravaged at will.
However, after the intermediate level, until the rank of the Great Warrior Commander, mages of the same rank can easily subdue the warriors with their changeable magic.
And when the warrior reaches the rank of the god of war attendant, his strength can barely be equal to that of the mage.
......
As for Basso Natu......
A cold glint flashed in Will's eyes......
This is a hero-level powerhouse......
The one who is completely above the worldly powers, the strong......
These powerhouses, no matter what their previous identities were, were collectively called powerhouses after breaking through the pinnacle of the two worldly powers, the God of War Squire and the Great Magister......
A long time ago, the strong men formulated the rules of this continent according to the number and strength of the power......
They are escaping from the world......
They are not involved in strife......
Their supreme power......
At least, supreme power among their community......
These powerhouses, the newly promoted ones are called hero-level powerhouses, also known as heroes.
And those who have been famous for a long time, are stronger than ordinary heroes in terms of combat experience and heritage, and have their own experiences that circulate on the mainland, are called poetry heroes.
After that, there are those who don't know how long they have lived, somewhere on the continent, or thirst for death, or indulge in pleasures in the world, and are strong enough to destroy a country, called epic heroes.
Above the epic heroes, there are legendary heroes who match their names, or...... Legendary powerhouse.
It is said that they possess strength comparable to that of the gods.
In Greek mythology, Zeus, the king of the gods, and Hercules, also known as Hercules, the illegitimate son of the mortal Alcmene and the mortal Alcmone, were legendary powerhouses.
His deeds are still praised today......
Golden Fleece, Nemean Lion, Cretan Bull, Cerberus, Rescue Prometheus......
The significance of a legendary powerhouse is not just how much influence he had at the time and how many legends he left behind.
In the centuries of Hercules' existence.
His country, Greece, became the most powerful country of its time.
But humans are not gods in the end, they will still be cut through the skin by sharp blades, and their internal organs will be destroyed by poison......
Hercules died after all, and he put on the garb that his wife had given him to be stained with the poisonous blood of Ioles, and finally committed suicide in agony, throwing himself into the flames......
......
I don't know why, Will's thinking has been inexplicably running off the rails in the past few days, and against Basso Natu, a real hero-level powerhouse, Will's thinking is still off track......
Fortunately, the time was not long, and by the time Will had refocused his attention on Basso Natu, it had only been a short moment......
Gently gripping the hilt of the sword, the sweat oozing from Will's palm did not make him feel any discomfort thanks to the high-quality leather.
Glancing at Cui Ming, who fell to the ground and still wanted to struggle to get up, Will sighed and said, "Lie down honestly......"
Basso Natu has a good grasp of proportion, and now, in his opinion, conceding defeat should be the best option.
After all, he resisted and used the strength of a mid-level warrior to fight against a hero-level powerhouse...... The people should see their efforts.
At the same time, the minor injuries of two people who can barely hold the stage are still not comparable to the dignity of a heroic powerhouse, and Basso Natu sees this compromise......
Pity......
Will wasn't going to throw in the towel...... It won't be as he hopes.
And......
Basso Natu is right about one thing, the martial arts possessed by the Holy Clan warriors are far more powerful than those of normal warriors...... Even...... Can threaten the existence of the strong......
Will remembered the martial arts his father had taught him......
That martial art that can deal indiscriminate damage at the cost of life force......
Or rather, a trick......
The principle of this technique is roughly to condense one's own battle qi at the sharpest point of the weapon, and then begin to compress it...... Then continue with compression......
As long as the weapon can withstand the battle qi that has been compressed to the extreme, then when it erupts, it is said that even the red gold and dark steel are as fragile as parchment in the face of this battle qi, and it will break with a single stab.
Its name is "Ningxing", a nice name.
It's just that after that, the user of the martial art will be damaged to varying degrees due to the overdraft of the battle qi...... The lightest is to lose consciousness and faint......
Will weighed and weighed what would happen after using the martial art Condensation......
Can you afford this price......
Eventually, he looked at the uneasy people around him, Choi Ming who had fallen to the ground, and Baso Natu, who seemed to have everything under control.
Will suddenly felt uncomfortable......
He hates people like this the most!
