When all the specialties, martial arts, and stances that he could choose were solved, Barrett finally set his sights on the fixed professional ability - if he was in Boreham's territory and upgraded under the arrangement and guidance of the trainer, he would also have more choices in professional ability. But in this wilderness, the character of Barrett, a remote branch of the Borem family, can only get the ability of 'North Wind Chill'.

The so-called 'North Wind' is not only an ability, but also a status symbol. You must know that the current Boram family is essentially a member of the Knights of the North Wind - it should be said that all the knights of the Norhan Kingdom belong to this organization, because it is the predecessor of the Norhan Kingdom, and the relationship with the kingdom is one and the same.

Members who have been able to master this ability in the past will be eligible to apply for the Knights of the North Wind Order. From this point of view, Barrett's branch still had a very close relationship with the main family in the past. After all, although the knight and the retinue are not as close as the squire, they are often in the same sequence as the followers.

At the same time, the effect provided by 'North Wind Chilling' is basically the banner ability of the cavalry regiment attached to the Knights of the North Wind. In other words, in this upgrade, Barrett got the cavalry-like 'Banner' class ability, and the bonus provided by 'Banner' is +1 for every 5 martial artist levels after level 9, up to +3 at level 19. If the Order has both cavalry levels, then he can add up the ranks of the Order and the cavalry when calculating the 'Banner' level, and use the algorithm that is more favorable to him.

Compared to normal cavalry abilities, of course. The effect of the 'flag' in Barrett's hand is obviously much reduced. Under normal circumstances. At level 5, the Cavalry's banner will be a source of excitement for allies and allies. As long as the banner of the cavalry can be clearly seen. All allies within 60 feet gain +2 morale bonus for the Fear Against Immunity check and +1 morale bonus for Charge Attack check. At level 10, and every 5 levels thereafter, these bonuses gain +1.

Because the level obtained is almost 4 levels later than that of the real cavalry, not only is the subsequent improvement speed slower, but the final effect is also much worse than that of the regular cavalry. Of course, since it is a vassal ability of the Knights of the North Wind, 'North Wind Cold' can't be just like that. In addition to the basic cavalry-like abilities, the user himself gains an additional 2 attack modifiers during the charge.

Even with such an additional enhancement for me, this ability still clearly belongs to the category of team support. And according to what Barrett knows. It is also a perk with a large area of influence. In other words, the most suitable environment for it is not to go out on an adventure, but to be a battlefield where two armies clash.

"Hah! Is this the rhythm to go to the end on the road to the charge? Do we have to put more effort into the 'crow stream' in the future? Looking at the introduction on the mission panel, Barrett touched his chin: "And if you want it to work, you have to carry the flag with you like those cavalrymen." Looks like I'm going to have to get a shoulder-mounted flag stand, or learn how to plant a flag in Peking Opera? I knew that the flag I got in Ulrique in the first place probably shouldn't have been replaced. But it seems a little late to say that now. ”

After all, the ability of the 'flag' type cannot be released without the flag. What's more, Barrett's status prevents him from carrying a flag on the road – because that's not politically correct. Judging from the current situation, Barrett can choose the banner of the Boreham family in the future, the military flag of the cavalry regiment attached to the Knights of the North Wind, and the battle flag of the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group that does not yet exist.

However, the identities and positions of the first two are too special, and I am afraid that they will cause unnecessary misunderstandings in many places. But if there were any other flags, Barrett might be criticized. So in this case. Barrett will miss the strange flag that once fell into his hands! Antiquities like this with their own special effects are not used by anyone who will judge the patterns on them.

Discover newfound professional competencies. Barrett, who seemed to have only a small part of the effect in a short period of time, shook his head and sighed: "What bad luck! ”

At this moment, Kleimatis, who was not far from him, suddenly turned his head: "What is so bad luck?" ”

No sparse sleepy eyes, no trace of tiredness. Apparently the pastor was awake and not awakened by Barrett's words.

"The newly acquired class abilities are not available for the time being, and most of the improvements can't be used against that damn red dragon." Barrett, who looked like he was floating in mid-air, rolled over and said.

With the appearance of this sentence, there was a sound of 'Si Xi Suosuo' in the entire subspace. It was the sound of a person's clothes rubbing against his skin when he turned over, and the sound was accompanied by the eyes of his companions.

Barrett, who was under the gaze of everyone, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "Don't look at me like that when you're lying down!" It's a very awkward feeling. ”

"Originally, everyone thought that you would be able to bring a surprise after leveling up? As a result, as soon as you opened your eyes, you gave us such a broken news, so do you still want to have a good face. Rielly, who was holding Lalu, glared at Barrett angrily.

In the face of the mage's strong words, Barrett naturally didn't want to take the blame: "Can you blame me?" It's like if you level up, you can't immediately learn a spell that will be especially helpful in this situation! ”

"Uh-uh!" Hearing this, Rielly immediately began to search for suitable words in her head to organize her words.

Just when the emotions of his companions were somewhat affected, Kleimatis behaved calmly: "Then Barrett, have you gained any improvement in this upgrade?" ”

"The main bias is to improve the ability to survive and cope with unexpected situations." Barrett paused at this point, "Of course, I'll be a little easier to deal with the caster's protection in the future." Finally, there's the rider's flag ability, but unfortunately I don't have a suitable flag available right now. It seems that the mercenary group's application for the battle flag should be on the agenda. ”

"Is it only the battle flag that belongs to our 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group? Doesn't that have to go to Saxony to go through the formalities? Speaking of which, it seemed that he was thinking of something, and Clematis suddenly clapped his hands. Aren't we just on the way this time? If I remember correctly. The independent city of Saxony is on the border between the kingdoms of Norhan and Cruze. ”

"It's between two countries, yes! But the borders between countries are very long. According to our current course of action, it seems that it is not on the same road as Saxony! The halfling wanderer who spoke immediately cast an inquiring glance at Barrett, "Captain, are you ready to change your plans?" ”

"There's no plan to do that yet. Indeed, the formalities for applying for the battle flag of the mercenary group can only be handled in the independent city where the mercenary group was established. However, there is no other way to accommodate this, as long as you can find a way, you may not need to go in person. Barrett blinked his eyes as he said this.

Hearing this, Rielly seemed to snort in order to vent her dissatisfaction: "Relation! ”

"As if you're not a relation?" Barrett replied nonchalantly. It was like a pun that instantly choked Rielly to death. Then the mage puffed out his cheeks, turned around and sulked at the cat boy in his arms.

Seeing his friend's deflated taste, Klaimatis laughed rather unscrupulously, and then asked the question he was most concerned about now: "Even if there is no targeted reinforcement." But Barrett, your strength has improved! When you face that dragon again, will you have a better grasp of it? ”

"If it's the first charge attack, it should be a bigger threat to that red dragon. The rest is only a normal character level increase, and the overall improvement is not large. Barrett doesn't hide anything about that.

After listening to this, Kleimatis smiled and nodded: "It's already good!" Don't forget that the damage you did to that red dragon yesterday was just a charge, Barrett. ”

"That's right. But have you ever thought that in order to let that red dragon take the bait, our previous preparations to lure the enemy should also be counted. And since there was a successful sneak attack yesterday, if that red dragon came again, it would definitely not give us that chance. Barrett said and climbed up on his hands, "I don't think the same tactic will work a second time." The other party is a red dragon with a good IQ, not a stupid man like a white dragon. ”

"It doesn't matter if it works or not. When the time comes, you have to give it a try. And that red dragon doesn't really have a good way to deal with Barrett's charge! As long as you have acceleration and flying, that guy will be within your assault range even if he breathes. At the same time, your charging ability will be increased after leveling up, and you will definitely be able to smash the red dragon's head. After touching his finger for a moment, Klaimatis immediately came to this conclusion from yesterday's memory.

Barrett, who was thinking about how to appease Riele, also came back to his senses and nodded after hearing this: "So if the other party is smart, the next person to come over will not be the red dragon that uses the cone breath, but the other dragons with the linear breath." This will allow me to take advantage of the distance of my breath to launch an out-of-zone attack outside of my threat range. ”

"But this is all due to the change that will be caused by the red dragon returning to the church to ask for help. Barrett: Do you really think that a young red dragon will let more people know about his humiliating experience after all this? Noodles, who had also risen to the occasion, offered his opinion.

As a member of the Church of the Dragon God of Good, the halfling wanderer, who is now a member of the Church of the Dragon God of Good, has definitely the most in-depth study of the five-colored dragon in the team. Therefore, his relevant remarks in this regard are still convincing most of the time. So after hearing this statement, the players' emotions immediately recovered a lot.

"Then let's hope it's a normal juvenile red dragon! Then the performance of life-saving is really not like it at all. Barrett, who said this, stepped forward and patted Rieley on the shoulder, "The break is over, it's time for everyone to go out." ”

When the players climbed out of the rope space again, Barrett stepped forward and gently grabbed the three horses that were bolted to the ground by wooden pins. After almost a night without much together, those war horses also need a certain amount of appeasement, so that they can be reassured on the rest of the journey.

After leaving the Rope Space, players completed their daily preparations and hit the road again. Players who know that danger may be approaching at any time can be said to be moving forward at full speed this time. Those players with average riding skills, in order to be able to balance on the back of a horse at this speed, now they don't even have the time to chat like they used to.

But just when the players had just stopped and nibbled on a few mouthfuls of dry food (with their current riding skills, if they chewed on horseback, they would definitely bite their tongues) - the red Grim Reaper in the sky appeared in everyone's field of vision again.

Barrett, who found that it was still the red dragon from yesterday, was relieved at this time for some reason: "Everyone keep going, this guy definitely doesn't dare to get too close." So the threat that can be posed to us is actually very limited. ”

"The problem is, I'm worried that the red dragon will have a way of telling if you have flying spells on you. In that case, it won't be easy. Hearing this, Riele Ryce Horse came to Barrett's side and patted him and whispered.

Barrett shook his head at the question: "If he had that ability, he shouldn't have been hit yesterday." As for asking for help from the church or something, I believe that as the noodles say, the dragon's pride does not allow it to do so. Otherwise, it is definitely much easier to change people to carry out the mission than to judge whether they have the ability to fly. Anyway, the target is to speed up everyone's town of Stoll. ”

With these words, the players immediately rode their horses and galloped. However, the speed of the horses is far from that of the dragons. Soon the red dragon grew bigger and bigger in the player's field of vision, and the only thing that made it different from yesterday was the missing horn on the top of its head, and the only thing it was the stone that was held by four sharp claws.

The red dragon that flew above the head of the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group once again launched a dive, this time faster and more fierce than any of its previous dives. It was like a falcon with its wings folded and swooping down from the sky. However, when it was still a full 70 feet away from the players, the red dragon slammed up - only the four rocks whizzed into the players like projectiles from ballistas. (To be continued.) )
