17. Death of the Snow Wind

On a wilderness plain, a ridiculously large carriage was parked in the middle.

Even if it is an ordinary field carriage, the size of the carriage cannot be as large as the current one: it is about three meters wide, five meters long, and the height is about the same as that of an ordinary carriage, only one meter two. It's just that the carriage carriage with such a serious over-standard will naturally have more cart animals that need to be used, especially although this carriage looks simple and simple, without any superfluous decoration, but in the eyes of people who know the goods, you can see at a glance that the carriage costs a lot of money.

The wood selected for this carriage is a rare White Emperor Ironwood in the Lane Kingdom.

This wood is so hard and tough that ordinary slashes and slashes cannot leave any traces. However, the resistance to fire is very weak, and it can almost be said that a little spark can burn a hole in it, so there are usually some fireproof materials to form a fixed match with White Emperor Ironwood. For example, the low-grade ones have soft stone resin, black ink stone juice, etc., but these two usually have a peculiar smell and are not very popular with the aristocracy; Therefore, high-grade materials are generally simply mixed with fireproof sesame oil, flint scales, and so on, which were born from alchemy formulas.

However, the carriage was not one of these four materials, but was coated with a layer of military fireproof material.

The closest to this wilderness plain is the Tonis Fortress.

So the origin of this carriage can be imagined.

This wilderness plain is also nearly a day's journey from the Tonis Fortress, and it is not without sight that the bandits who have no vision along the way have taken a fancy to this carriage, after all, if a carriage of this scale can be made of White Emperor Ironwood, the people sitting in the carriage must be either rich or expensive. Especially since there are no guards around this carriage, this is simply a naked piece of big fat meat, but all the people who are eyeing this carriage after seeing the creature pulling the cart. But no one dared to make up their minds.

A strange creature that many bandits have never seen.

But even if those bandits have never seen this creature, they can feel the creature by looking at its hideous appearance, and at least it is a kind of magical beast.

And the person who can drive the monster is definitely not simple.

Of course, the real reason why these bandits did not dare to attack the carriage was after the arrival of a red-haired one-eyed man. The man, who was said to have close ties with many nobles in the Kingdom of Lane, just glanced at the carriage and the creature pulling it, then said go, and then left without looking back.

Among them, the red-haired man's existence was not just a personal strength. His influence and prestige are also enough to convince anyone. Since even this red-haired demon didn't dare to make a move, how could other bandits dare to make a rash move, so this dangerous road, which had been the biggest headache for the Seventh Legion after the Royal Family of Ryan took over the Tonis Fortress, finally ushered in the first peace.

And several people in the carriage at that time were all tacitly aware of the appearance of the red-haired man.

Maybe. There is only one person who does not know the way.

Saloki. Snow Wind, the princess of the Snow Wind tribe who has no personal strength.

Yes. The people in this carriage were naturally Sean, Shephaneo, Cecilia, and Saloki. Sitting in the driver's seat are the bodyguards of Rena and Princess Saloki. Because if the dragon in charge of pulling the cart can't see Rena, she will enter a state of rage, so she must let Rena appear near the Blackstone, and of course, the main problem is that only Rena can drive the Blackstone.

But now, the black stone was constantly flicking its tail, and white mist was constantly spewing out of its nose. Visibly becoming extremely agitated.

An invisible murderous aura began to spread outward with this carriage as the core, although it was invisible, but the rich bloody aura that was enough to make people hallucinate was also unavoidable no matter what, so the sound of insects that was still slightly sounding around was completely quiet at this moment.

There was a dead silence.

But if you feel it carefully. But it can be found that in this invisible murderous aura, they are actually confronted against each other, and they are not formed by a group!

As a black stone that has a very close relationship with Rena, it can certainly feel Rena's inner mood fluctuations, so when Rena has killing intent, Black Stone's aggression will naturally become extremely obvious. It's just that Rena hasn't ordered an attack at this moment, so with its simple thinking circuit, it's naturally a little incomprehensible, why is Rena's killing intent radiating from one of her own people?

His own people naturally refer to the guards of the princess Saloki.

People from the Wild Lands are very particular about the distinction between dignity and inferiority, so no matter what the circumstances, this guard will not be in the same room as Princess Saloki. Therefore, in terms of the arrangement of positions, he naturally sat in the coachman's position with Rena, after all, this specially modified carriage is very large, of course, even in the Tonis Fortress, this carriage generally needs eight tall stallions to pull.

The elven guard cautiously reached out his left hand, trying to reach for the shield that had been placed diagonally aside.

Rena didn't say anything, she just glanced at it lightly, and only after seeing the elven guard holding the shield did she speak, "I advise you to sit still and not move, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen next." ”

The guard's face changed slightly, as he had fully felt the change in the killing intent in Rena's body. Although he had never seen this woman's attack before, the momentum emanating from her body and the Earth Walking Dragon that obeyed her orders, this guard knew that he would never be her opponent, so it was not difficult for him to understand that the other party would let him hold the shield in his hand.

Because she doesn't care.

Compared to the tension outside the carriage, the situation inside the carriage is much better.

Saloki. Yukikaze looked at Sean with only initial doubts, but quickly calmed down.

"Why do you ask this?" Saloki reached out and gently stroked her falling hair before she spoke, her expression very calm.

Because she didn't read lust in Sean's eyes.

And in her opinion, if the other party really started with the idea of the tribal secret art from the beginning, then there is no need to wait until this time to show this face, and it is completely possible to start at the beginning. So at this time, when Saloki didn't see the desire for tribal secret art in Sean's eyes. Her mind calmed down, and she soon remembered something.

"What does it have to do with the insights you gained in the battle yesterday?"

Sean was slightly stunned, then nodded, and his expression was calm: "Yes." …… I seem to have a new understanding of this worldly realm, so I want to know whether the content of my guess is correct, so I want to know how the secret art of your tribe is cultivated, and whether I can learn it. ”

Sean's idea was simple.

That is to see if he can learn the secret art of these tribes.

In this world, except for him and those who are instructed and prompted by him, no one can correctly obtain the attribute bonuses on equipment. This is actually Sean's real hole card. It is also the reason why he is only in the silver realm now, but he can fight hard with the upper gold for a few minutes, because with the equipment attribute bonus, his personal data is very good-looking.

It can even be said that it is not weaker than the average high-ranking gold powerhouse.

Therefore, since the powerhouse of the Snow Wind Tribe was able to learn the secret arts, Sean speculated that his personal attributes could also meet the standard of learning. Then if he can master the secret art of the Snow Wind Tribe without consuming any proficiency points, then he can be sure. When his agility value exceeds two hundred and fifty points, he will definitely be able to learn the sword technique of Soul Suppression, which is enough to kill the high-ranking golden powerhouse.

Therefore. He must ask Princess Saloki about the secrets of the Snowwind Tribe's secret arts.

Anyway, Sean knows. As soon as Princess Saloki tells the core of the tribe's secret art, then he can immediately gain information about this secret art. Just like when Beth taught him Requiem and Requiem, and he learned the skills of others.

Looking at Sean's calm gaze, Saloki pondered for a moment, but slowly spoke: "I don't know much about the secret arts. After all, I can't cultivate. But I've heard Uncle Arcaden say that the Snowwind Death and the Wind Dance are fundamentally different......"

"Death of the Snow Wind? And the Dance of the Wind? ”

"The secret technique of our Snow Wind Tribe is the Death of Snow Wind, and the secret art of the Wind Breaking Tribe is the Dance of Breaking Wind." Seeing the confusion in Sean's eyes, Saloki opened her mouth to explain. "These two secret techniques are actually the secret techniques of the Eye of the Storm tribe, a simplified version of the Body of the Storm. …… Or the mutilated version is also okay, because both Snow Wind Death and Wind Breaking Dance have only mastered part of the essence of the Storm Body, so these two secret techniques still have a great backlash effect on us. ”

Sean can understand this.

To put it simply, both the Snowwind Death and the Wind Breaking Dance are extended and developed from the secret art of the Storm Body, the Eye of the Storm tribe, but because of the lack of true core meaning, both the Snow Wind Death and the Wind Breaking Dance are double-edged swords, which can hurt both others and oneself.

"I guess I understand." Sean nodded, "So is there any difference between these two secret techniques?" ”

"I've heard that the Dance of the Wind can give a caster's martial arts a temporary power boost, and it is said that it can increase up to thirty-two times."

Sean keenly noticed that Saloki's use of words was "martial arts" rather than "strength".

He knew that in this world, the aborigines' understanding of "martial arts" is actually the power of skills, in other words, if it is only the power of martial arts, then this has nothing to do with their own strength. However, hearing the increase effect of this multiple, Sean couldn't help but be completely stunned for a moment, because if the person who cast this secret technique was a high-ranking golden peak powerhouse, and it was also a thirty-two-fold increase effect, then the power of the opponent's full attack would not be much weaker than that of the upper-rank Sacred Domain powerhouse.

Even if it was only eight times, it was enough to be equivalent to the lower rank of the Holy Domain.

"And what about the Death of the Snow Wind?" Sean asked.

"The Death of the Snow Wind is not the same as the Dance of the Breaking Wind." "The effect of the Snowwind Death is to allow the caster to make themselves fearless of any pain for a short period of time, and no amount of damage can be detected by the caster, so they can fight fearlessly. However, when the casting time is over, or the caster is unable to keep the secret technique running, then all the pain suffered in the process will completely erupt. ”

After hearing Saloki's words, Sean immediately realized the effect of this secret technique.

I also understood for the first time why the elven guard was so seriously injured. can still be like a person who has nothing to do, it turns out that all this is the effect of the secret technique of the snow wind. Only people like Sean, who have been at the forefront of the battlefield in the game, will know how valuable this secret technique is, or as long as it is a warrior profession, they will never be unaware of the role of this secret art.

In the game, skills like this, which can ignore one's own pain and kill a few times in and out of the battlefield without fear, have always been said to be "small invincible".

In the entire game, only a handful of players have acquired this kind of skill or secret art.

One of the most famous is the Dawn Church's unique magic [Will of the Dawn].

This skill behaves on NPCs in exactly the same way that Saloki describes Snowwind's death. However, when applied to the player, it creates a special energy shield that lasts according to the caster's magical ability, and until the time limit expires. Any damage skill that attacks a player with [Will of the Morning Light] is absorbed and accumulated until the effect ends.

And this damage burst is not purely unaffected, it will also be affected by skills such as protection and damage reduction, and when attacking players who are blessed by this kind of divine magic. If the player also has protection and damage reduction skills, their damage will also be reduced. And so it goes. This means that all damage is nerfed twice before it is returned to the player. Therefore, if the player cannot be killed instantly after the damage is completely exploded, then the player will not be able to die as long as the healing class is present.

So the "little invincible" and the like are not so simple to talk about casually.

Originally, Sean really didn't have much interest in the Death of the Snow Wind, but now he suddenly felt that he had changed his mind, if he could learn this secret art. That's fine. Of course, the premise is that this skill will not consume too many of his proficiency points, or that the cultivation of this skill will not be so troublesome.

"So did that uncle of yours say anything about the general cultivation method of this skill?"

"I didn't say it explicitly." Princess Saloki thought for a moment before speaking. "But I have said that it seems that you need to use your fighting spirit to stimulate your body, so that your body is always in a state of stimulation."

Keep your body in a state of irritation?

Sean's brow furrowed slightly.

Sean can still use vindictiveness to stimulate his body, but the question is how to stimulate his body?

"Ah, yes!" Princess Saloki suddenly exclaimed, "Uncle Akadan once said that it is not difficult to learn this secret technique, the real difficulty is how to evenly distribute the fighting energy to one's body, and keep these fighting qi active at all times. ”

"Ding!"

After Princess Saloki added it again, Sean finally heard the electronic synthesized sound from the system.

[The special secret technique "Death of the Snow Wind" has been detected, and you need to learn the secret technique with a strength of 35, stamina of 60, wisdom of 45, will of 50, and a high-level silver (sixth order), you have met the learning conditions. To learn this mystic, it costs 65 Proficiency Points. …… Due to the lack of proficiency points at the moment, you will not be able to activate the skill temporarily. 】

"it!" Seeing that learning Snowwind's Death actually required 65 proficiency points, Sean finally couldn't help but curse.

But after hearing the system's prompt, Sean can finally confirm that the direction he guessed is not wrong, that is, it is indeed possible for him to learn all skills, as long as he has enough clues. And the only question left at the moment is whether he can master the skills of this world without consuming any proficiency points, if he can, then Sean feels that he can get eighteen proficiency points first and then put all of them into agility points, and learn the soul as soon as possible.

After all, compared to forty proficiency points, it is not difficult for Sean to get eighteen proficiency points.

Even if this mission is not to reward all proficiency points, Sean also knows how to get fifteen proficiency points in the Ryan Kingdom, but the process will be more troublesome. But compared to the urgent need to improve the strength, then this trouble is completely negligible.

Soon, Sean thanked Princess Saloki.

Of course, he couldn't say that he had seen through the secret of the Snow Wind Death, after all, this was the secret art of the Snow Wind Tribe. Can the secret art of a tribe be known to people casually? Sean doesn't want to be the enemy of the entire Snowwind Tribe, after all, in the competition between the Breaking Wind Tribe and the Snowwind Tribe, he has already chosen the Snowwind Tribe to bet, so at least until the quest chain generated by this limited-time mission is completed, he doesn't want to go too far with the Snowwind Tribe.

Similarly, Sean naturally couldn't test the correctness of his thoughts in front of Princess Saloki at this time, after all, this princess is not a fool.

He had just asked someone else about the secret techniques of the Snow Wind Tribe, and then he began to cultivate, even if he didn't have any doubts at the beginning, he would definitely have doubts at this moment. Therefore, Sean could only suppress the restlessness in his heart, reached out and gently knocked on the door of the carriage, signaling that Rena could continue on the road.

However, shortly after the carriage was on the road again, it stopped again. (To be continued......)
