Chapter 432: Curse: The Heart of Sisyphus

Annan carefully examined the skills of the Victory Knight.

“…… This profession is really good. ”

He exclaimed.

- It is a very rare profession.

100 consecutive failures without mistakes, and finally succeed...... Annan even wondered if there would be ten people in this profession who had ever advanced.

Victory Knight LV23: [Winter Sword Lv10 (Max)], [Frost Sword Lv10 (Max)], [Touch Bypass LV1], [Will to Victory LV1 (Max)], [Brilliant Sword LV1], Free Skill Point 3

The first-level [Silver Hand] and [Silver Blade Strike] have become two new skills: [Will to Victory] and [Brilliant Sword].

Will to Victory is a passive skill that only needs one point to reach the full level.

His effect is that when the sum of strength and agility is lower than the will attribute, it can be arbitrarily determined once a day by replacing the strength or agility attribute with the will attribute.

For every 10 points of Will attribute, you can increase the chance to use [Will to Victory] once. At present, Annan's will attribute is 31 points, which means that he can use it four times a day.

This is also the first skill that Annan has seen, which must depress attributes in order to trigger the effect.

- Without a doubt, this is a very powerful skill.

It was even so strong that it scared Annan a little.

What it actually means is a burst of "temporary doubling of strength or agility" several times a day.

You must know that the swordsmanship skill of [Full Strike] requires three times the physical strength to temporarily increase the strength by 30%.

And when fighting, even if it is a 30% increase ten times, it may not be more decisive than the effect of a 100% increase once.

The Brilliant Sword, on the other hand, is a skill that is related to both Willpower and Constitution:

It reads, "Burns Will to the limit, increases damage immunity positively related to the Will attribute (currently 31%), and stores all damage taken." Use this skill again to slash out all the damage you absorb, creating a massive light slash; The lower your health, the more the power of the Radiant Slash increases, reaching its maximum when your health is below 30%."

This skill can only be used once a day, and it is a "ultimate" in the true sense of the word.

To put it simply, it is that you can increase the damage when you are beaten during the charging phase, and finally cut out a light cannon.

Its greatest value lies in the flexibility of this charging time.

It is seen as a channeling spell.

As long as Annan doesn't use other channeling spells, or if he uses chanting spells, he can stay charged forever. Even if you attack with other swordsmanship, it will not interrupt the charge.

If Annan is equipped with the [Elven Hand], then he can use another additional channeling spell while charging. It will not affect Annan's form...... Equivalent to a semi-permanent injury waiver.

So Annan did not hesitate to directly point all the three free skill points on the [Brilliant Sword].

The brilliant sword of each level did not form a qualitative change. It's just that the extra damage has been increased......

But when the Brilliant Sword reaches LV4, the first effect is finally triggered:

[At LV4: This skill damage is increased by an additional 50%]

…… Annan's mentality is very complicated.

It's been so long.

He's finally got a bit of a boss......

- Although he has become a backwaterman, he is also a boss to some extent.

His golden "rare elite" template finally has some convincing power.

"Finally, I have my first ultimate...... My first serious area attack skill. ”

Annan immediately felt that the [Silver Blade Strike] was not fragrant enough.

Sure enough, it's still a new profession.

However, since the release form of this skill is "Slash".

Then it may be able to interact with Annan's first spell to further increase the damage.

"'Knights of Victory'...... ? ”

Annan muttered to himself.

A skill can only be triggered by depressing the stat, and a skill can only be used by depressing the state.

He inexplicably felt a little ironic.

"Forget it, get the decryption reward."

Annan sighed.

Be prepared to accept your own rewards.

His "brilliance" element originally had a depth of awakening of 63%. In the nightmare of "The Great Hunt", Annan had already increased to 73%, and when it was calculated that the degree of improvement through factor extraction, it had already reached 95%.

Now accept this, and Annan will officially cross the 90% threshold. There is no need to pursue 100% depth of awakening...... Because Annan has been able to fully extract the "glorious elements" within a safe range. Even if you burn part of your soul to train, the rest can be replenished quickly.

The other four elements are then pursued.

- "Wisdom", "Glory", "Beauty", "Strictness".

Counting the "brilliance" that has basically completed the awakening ahead of schedule, and the "frost" that has been born with mastery. These are the six elements that Annan has mastered.

Only by successfully clearing the twisted nightmare can you steadily and safely improve the awakening depth of the element. Although the depth of awakening of an element is not directly equal to the awakening rate, it can be regarded as a "qualification".

Or, rather, the depth of awakening that is "inherited" to the elements held by the owner of the nightmare. Of course, the premise is that you also have the qualifications of this part of the elements...... Otherwise, the reward will not be triggered.

This is one of the reasons why many transcendents suppress their state before advancing to gold.

In addition to looking for the advancement and rituals that suit them, they are also looking for twisted nightmares that can adapt to them, to absorb the power of the nightmare owner's elements, and to increase the depth of their awakening. It's like in the immortal cultivation simulator, if the grade of the golden pill is not high enough, there is no hope of ascending.

At least more than 90% of the depth of awakening, there is hope to complete the perfect crystallization of the elements without taking drugs. Of course, if they are truth-level transcendents or direct descendants of gods, then they are born with an element that is 100% awakened.

However, 90% completion is required in one stage?

So how is the second phase triggered......

Annan pondered.

After he confirmed, two marks crossed his eyes:

[Get Dungeon Decryption Reward: Elemental (Radiance) Awakening Depth Increases by 20%]

[Get the Dungeon Decryption Reward: Curse "The Heart of Sisyphus"]

“…… Hey? ”

Annan sighed softly.

This was the second time he had received an additional spell in a nightmare.

…… Don't be Denton's final curse, right?

Annan glanced at it with some apprehension.

“……”

He was suddenly silent.

Heart of Sisyphus (Forbidden Type): You must not despair because of failure. 】

[This spell is attached to itself, has no maintenance cost and is automatically triggered, and will be automatically lifted when the conditions are met]

[Triggers when any of your decisions fail three times in a row and you try to make another decision-]

[Until this decision is successful, all abilities you apply to this judgment will be temporarily +1]

[This spell can be triggered indefinitely, but each time this spell is triggered, Erosion is +1 each time it is triggered; if it is triggered multiple times on the same decision, Erosion is added by +2 on the second trigger, for a total of +3, and +3 on the third trigger, for a total of +6, and so on]

[A loser's last gift, and a tribute - Denton]

That's what you ...... The last ripple?
