Chapter Twenty-Five: The Awkward Stone Dragon Belt
ps: Modify the wording.
"Oh, although I got rid of the shackles given by the earth, I still look like I am still in a down-to-earth state." Barrett, who was touching his chin, raised his eyebrows, "That is, if you can, it is better to conduct ground combat as much as possible." But it's a good thing to finally be able to use the martial arts of the stone dragon stream in air combat."
After confirming the new class abilities obtained at level 6, Barrett turned his attention to Shi Longliu's martial arts. After all, Barrett, who now has an extra stone dragon belt and an extra choice, began to carefully choose his current moves.
Since the highest was the third level, Barrett's eyes naturally fell on the martial arts that the third level of the stone dragon stream could choose. The name of one of the martial arts elegant points just fits the idiom, and it is as steady as Mount Tai. It is also the posture that Barrett could imitate when performing interception missions in the tomb and the underground temple of the god of mummies.
In terms of effect, it is a fairly strong field control move. When the user is in this stance, he has a frighteningly high 10 boost when resisting ramming, passing, stumbling, and grappling checks from opponents. It also creates a unique gravitational field that causes any opponent who tries to pass through the user's threat area or occupied space to an equally staggering 10 penalty for perks such as rolling. This means that any enemy who tries to pass by the user will be able to easily hit the opponent with the attack he finds an opportunity to perform. The remaining 2 points of total damage reduction can only be said to be a good addition.
However, this posture has a very fatal flaw, and this flaw has not been solved even after having the ability of the stone dragon to control the sky. That is, the stance will terminate immediately after moving 5 feet for any reason, whether it's a collision, telepathic spell, or something else.
If Barrett is a phalanx infantry on the front, this stance is particularly suitable for the user's identity. However, for Barrett, who is an adventurer, this stance is strong, but the chance of using it is not very big
"Let's be on the shortlist for now," Barrett shook his head, then turned his gaze to the next stance. The crushing of the giant mountain is well literary and artistic, and it seems more appropriate to call it "Mount Tai pressing the top" if you bring a little oriental style. Maybe the word Tarzan has appeared a little more, but who made it so famous
This stance allows the user to have amazing power. Crush the opponent who is crushed under him. Through guò's mastery of the stone dragon stream, the user can crush the opponent who is caught by himself. It lets the enemy know that melee combat with you is an extremely stupid decision. This stance allows the user to gain a tight grip and is sure to succeed after every successful grappling.
"The gameplay with the grappling flow is beautiful. And there are no restrictions on movement, and with the help of the stone dragon Yukong, it is also more free. It's a pity that in the end, Barrett still reluctantly let go of his clenched palm, "But I didn't take the grappling route, what do I want you to do?"
The good size trait really makes Barrett a lot of advantage in the tackle route. If the enemy is only your own kind, it is naturally a good choice. However, there is one problem that cannot be ignored, and that is that Barrett's own size is limited after all. Although it may have some advantages when dealing with humanoids of comparable size. But if you're dealing with a big guy like a dragon. But it wasn't Barrett who was holding it, it was all hanging on the giant monster.
First of all, investing resources on such a restrictive route is itself a waste. In addition, Barrett's fighting style is not suitable for accommodating grappling skills, whether it is during the test period or now, so he is naturally left behind. Immediately after that, he stole his eyes to the two striking skills that he could currently use
Bone Crusher: The user's attacks cause their opponent's eyes to widen in agony, as if his bones were shattered into hundreds of pieces. This strike is in addition to being able to deal the equivalent of two additional greatsword swings in a single melee attack. The target being hit must also pass a guò toughness check. Otherwise, the skeletal structure will be weakened by Yanzhòng, and all heavy hits aimed at the target will be more likely to cause fatal damage. This effect lasts until the target's health is fully restored, either by magical power or by nature.
Even if a successful waiver ignores the negative effects that follow, the extra damage is not reduced in the slightest. However, creatures that don't have significant weaknesses and are immune to deadly creatures, while immune to the additional effects of this art, also do not reduce the bonus damage.
"It looks good, but there are still some restrictions on the use of some of the additional effects, and it is relatively easy to be waived. And that extra damage will still quickly lose its value as your strength increases. However, Barrett, who hesitated for a moment, repented after seeing another move called "Stone Dragon Strike": "Actually, seriously, the bone crusher is already very good."
The reasons for such a conclusion. It's because another move of the same level of Shilongliu is really scum. The principle of Stone Dragon Strike is to use the weapon to slash at the weak link of the constructed creature or the flaw of the item, so that the slashed object shatters after a few moments.
To put it bluntly, it is a combination of the power of the stone dragon flow and nature, so that the user has a strange power when attacking a certain point of the item. Users use this knowledge to make themselves more advantageous when destroying structures or objects. As long as the target is an item or constructed creature, the user is able to deal the same amount of extra damage as the Bone Crusher.
Seriously, Barrett didn't see any significance in this move at all. Only deals extra damage to constructs and items, but Bone Crushers can do this as well, with additional debuffs. The only use may be to destroy the opponent's weapon in the face of a strong enemy that is difficult to resist, but the Iron Heart Stream 2nd Disarming Strike can obviously do a better job.
In the end, only the Bone Crusher move seemed to be the most practical, and Barrett, who touched his head, could only choose this one in the end: "If I had known what was happening now, I should have focused on Stone Dragon Flow when I was testing." Forget it, there is no regret medicine to buy anyway. ”
After completing the selection, Barrett quickly added the skill points he had obtained to the skills he had planned for a long time. to ensure that they will not lag behind in terms of basic ability. Then he got up and packed his bags, and went to the cafeteria in the oasis to wait for the first meal of the day.
But even after Barrett had finished his breakfast, the curtain of Lady Freya's tent showed no sign of lifting. So Barrett had no choice but to stand outside the door and wait, and few people in this oasis dared to lift the curtain without permission.
Finally, at sunset, Barrett waited for Lady Freya's microphone, Lady Regina. The female fire teller who came out of the big tent beckoned to Barrett: "Come in, Miss, I have prepared a magic circle for you to go to Yale City." ”
"What a hassle for Miss Freya," Barrett said pretending to be polite.
Lady Regina, who led the way in front, said without looking back, "Since you have that belt, you are in a sense Miss's apprentice." If you really want to repay the young lady, remember not to fall into the reputation of the young lady outside. I don't care about anything else. But in the Pamir words. Be careful that I teach you a lesson myself."
Really, I'm just being polite. You guy is really a snake fighter, although there are many resentful thoughts in his heart, but Barrett also understands that although Ms. Freya doesn't seem to be doing right, she is really good to herself, and if you have the opportunity, you will definitely repay the other party's kindness.
Unlike the last time I entered the tent, this time the ankle-length plush stall in the center of the tent was replaced by a magic circle outlined in silver thread. However, compared to the one Barrett had seen at Boreham's home, the circle in front of Ms. Freya looked more or less rudimentary.
Ms. Freya, who saw Barrett, yawned and said lazily, "Stand in the middle of it."
"I want to ask. What is the transmission error this time? lest I lose my way to Yale City. Barrett, who had stepped into the magic circle, asked cautiously.
Hearing this, Ms. Freya instantly changed her original loose sleepy eyes. Staring at Barrett with wide eyes, he asked, "Do you kid doubt my level?"
"No, no, no, Ms. Freya, I didn't mean that. But you can't bury any guidance devices in Yale City, teleportation in this situation, isn't it normal for errors to occur," Barrett immediately rubbed his hands and laughed.
"By the way, you seem to have been teleported from Boreham. What a painful lesson," said Lady Freya, who immediately remembered something, smirked, "You can rest assured in this regard." The error of transmission increases with the distance. I'll definitely be able to teleport you directly into the fields outside of Yale this time. ”
The fields outside Yale wish not to be teleported to date palms or shafts. Barrett prayed secretly in his heart.
With the ethereal voice of Lady Freya, the magic circle under Barrett's feet lit up one by one. Immediately after a dazzling light, Barrett felt dizzy for a while, and then felt as if he was entangled in something.
When he opened his eyes, Barrett found that his landing site was actually a vineyard, and he was now trapped in the vines of the trellis. Barrett, who tried to twist his body, immediately understood that if he wanted to get out of it, he would destroy the grapes in front of him, for example.
Barrett, who still hadn't been able to see anyone after waiting for a while, sighed: "Forget it, let's open here first." Let's talk to the owner of this vineyard about compensation."
Barrett, with his arms exerting his strength, jumped directly at the vines that were wrapped around him, and then tore a hole in it to free himself from the entangled state. After shaking off his cloak and patting his clothes, and cleaning up the dead branches and leaves hanging on his body, Barrett stood on tiptoe and looked out. Finally, I saw a small shack on the edge of this large vineyard. Apparently the managers here should be living there temporarily.
The first-class trotted to Barrett outside the shack and shouted, "Is there anyone inside, do you have something you want to discuss with the owner here?"
"Who's out there," soon emerged an old man with a beard from the curtain of the shack. After he looked Barrett up and down, he immediately became very vigilant: "I'm just an old man guarding the garden. If you want to discuss something, please go to the city and find my master. ”
Barrett, who was in charge of guarding the slaves in the garden, scratched his head: "I still want to go to the city, I just accidentally broke a grape trellis." I thought it was just a loss of money, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome. ”
"What. You said you broke the grape trellis" The old man's expression in front of him changed immediately, and the tone immediately rose a lot, "Take me to see which one you broke it"
"Follow me," Barrett grabbed the old man in front of him and threw him at the place where he had landed. The old man, who was not even in Barrett's footsteps, shouted vigorously from behind, "Slow down, slow down." I'm going to fall apart soon, my old arms and legs. ”
When he came to the trellis, which had been damaged and messed up by Barrett, the old man did not look as old as he had appeared on the road. It's like dying a rabbit that sees a carrot. In the blink of an eye, he jumped in front of the trellis. I don't know how the previous watch xiàn was installed.
"It's okay, it's okay, there is still a remedy" The old man who had been inspecting the grape trellis for a while breathed a sigh of relief, and then he turned around and scolded: "What the hell are you eating this big man, can't you see such a big grape trellis?"
"At the end of the day, it's really none of my business." Barrett shrugged, "If you really want to blame, blame the mage who threw him here, of course, we can't bother the master because of the grape trellis, so we should discuss compensation now." If you can't make a decision, take me to someone who can talk." If you like this work. You are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation
