Chapter 5: The Man Behind the Scenes
Level 3 Professional!
It's a bit of a hassle!
But for Marven, it's just a little. Now that the other party is left alone, his pressure has eased a lot.
With machetes, gangsters, agility and strength are not low, most of them are [gangster swordsmen]. This particular first-order class is a variant of a warrior, but is more offensive and has a mediocre physique.
Marven quickly glanced at the counting panel, he had just killed four members of the Akron Gang, and he had gained 59 points of experience for killing, while the level 2 ranger needed 5o points!
Xun assigned 5o points of killing experience to the Ranger, and a burst of heat was transmitted on him, and he immediately became a second-level Ranger!
As he leveled up, his health increased by 13, for a total of 5o health. At the same time, the new class skills are 24 points, and there are no free attribute points. Free stat points are a valuable resource to gain one point by leveling up two classes.
Of the 24 skill class points, he assigned four to stealth, and the remaining 2o points were kept for the time being.
The gangster knife hand is menacing, a powerful slash!
He wants to split Marven in half!
Marven was unmoved, extremely calm, and with a relaxed dodge, he went around the back of a big tree.
Bang!
The knife hand backhand is another knife! Marven jumped back, and the knife slashed directly at the book, shattering the bark and flying sawdust!
"Give me death!"
The swordman roared with a hideous face. He pulled out the machete violently, and who knew that at this time, Marven suddenly made a sudden breakthrough and crashed into his arms!
The knife hand was caught off guard, staggered by Marven's collision, took a few steps back, and almost got rid of the machete in his hand!
Now is the time!
Even under high movement, he can still quickly make all kinds of battle-related judgments, which is a kind of combat instinct.
In a flash of cold light, the scimitar cut horizontally and slashed at the waist and abdomen of the knife hand!
In the next second, a sharp pain came from Marven's right hand, and the knife hand grinned and grabbed Marven's wrist with both hands.
"** think it can hurt me?"
Marven didn't speak, he ignored the pain, and he ignored the frequent flashes of battle records:
[Normal attack failed, right wrist was captured, and the confrontation was ......]
[The power is suppressed and cannot be broken! 】
Just when the knife hand was triumphant, Marven's left hand appeared near the knife hand's neck like the most ruthless poisonous snake.
He held a dagger in his left hand. This is the barely usable thing of the trophies left behind by the thief.
"Ahh
A terrible scream pierced the night sky, and Marven cut his throat mercilessly!
The knife hand let go of his hands and fell to the ground in horror.
Blood flowed suddenly, and in a few moments, the convulsive gangster knife man died.
Marven rubbed his wrist that was in severe pain, and the strength of this knife hand was more than 16 points. It's a pity that his combat experience is too weak.
It is not unjust to die at the hands of the former Lord of the Night.
He searched a little, and the gangster swordsman was quite wealthy, with a total of 29 silver coins, and some scattered things, but they were not of much value.
Unfortunately, Marvin didn't find any information on why they killed themselves on the bodies of these Akron gang members.
Why should a gangster be unable to get along with a poor and white down-and-out aristocracy?
It's illogical.
You must know that the murder of nobles is a very serious crime, and as long as it is exposed, the Akron gang will definitely be destroyed. Even if Marven is just a down-and-out nobleman who has lost his territory.
And to kill him, you won't get anything. It's weird that the risks and benefits aren't proportional.
hastily disposed of the bodies of these five people, and Marven really didn't have the heart to catch crabs. He prepares to return to Riverbeach City to figure out who is trying to kill him.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that there had been some changes in the taskbar.
In the task description column, the following text has been added:
【…… The chase near the Songzi River beach makes you realize that something is wrong. Someone is trying to kill you, and it's most likely related to the group of gnolls who have strangely appeared around your territory. Riverbeach City is full of fish, but no matter who is behind the scenes, as long as he still wants to achieve his goal, there will always be a day when the water will come out. 】
At the same time, this main quest also has an additional side quest [Behind the Scenes], to the effect that Marven finds out who is hiding behind Yiqiē.
The rewards for side quests are also not thin, 1oo points of general experience, anyway, Marven must find the truth of the matter, this 1oo points of general experience is almost given for nothing.
……
On his way back to the city, he carefully chose a secluded and safe path to avoid the other members of the Akron gang who might have a zài.
As he walked, he flipped through the battle records. It's a good habit to review battles after the fact, calculate gains and losses, and summarize problems.
In the long run, the level of combat will definitely improve.
It's just that to his surprise, he showed the following in the battle record:
[You repeatedly use a standard technique move in battle, which is similar to the Phantom Assassin class skill Throat Cutting 98%, and costs 5oo Kill XP, which can be turned into your personal exclusive skill.] 】
[You repeatedly use a standard technique move in battle, spend 95% of the time similar to the Phantom Assassin class Shadow Cut, and spend 2ooo points of killing experience, which can be turned into your personal exclusive skill.] 】
[As you repeatedly use the technical moves of other classes in combat, one of your personal specialties will move closer to this aspect.] Personal Expertise Formation Progress: 9/1oo]
……
"Using the skills of other classes, you can actually convert them into your own personal skills?"
Marven was slightly stunned, he had never heard of this kind of statement before.
But he quickly reacted, I'm afraid it's not that simple. The battle log makes it clear that you have to repeatedly use a "standard" technique and pass a certain level of similarity in order to convert it into your own personal skills by spending your killing experience. Personal skills cannot be increased through guò skill points, but can only be continuously honed through guò and slowly increase the skill level.
Marven also noticed that the higher the similarity between the standard technique that seems to be used repeatedly and the original skill, the less killing experience is required. Throat Cutting and Shadow Cutting are both Phantom Assassin's signature skills, but they cost a very different amount of experience to kill.
"5oo Kill XP ......"
To be honest, Marven was a little excited, but also a little bitter. Kill XP is very difficult to obtain and is one of the highest level of experience. If the killing experience is spent on this, then it will undoubtedly delay his level of leveling.
However, this problem has not yet reached the point where it must be solved, because the unallocated killing experience on hand is only 39 points, which is still far from the 5oo mark.
What he cared about more was that personal specialty, in his previous life, he hadn't heard of what kind of specialty would be formed by repeatedly using other professional skills.
You must know that there are three types of personal expertise, congenital mastery, acquired training, and acquired talent awakening. Marven's body is quite wastewood, and he has no personal expertise that he has mastered congenitally, so he can only increase it through acquired training. For example, most of the personal expertise that is being formed now is of this type.
As for the last one, the personal expertise of the acquired talent awakening, it is quite rare. Marvin never counted on this, although his race explicitly says "Human/?" This means that he has the blood of other races, but it is very thin.
In any case, it is good to be able to develop a specialty. Specialties are good things that can help adventurers in addition to attributes and skills.
It was late at night, and the city had a half-curfew system, and although the gates closed late, no one was allowed to walk on the streets after twelve o'clock. The gates were closed, and in order to enter the city, some extraordinary means had to be employed.
In the past, when Marven was the master of the night, with his expertise in flying cornices and some special magic devices, it was easy to climb over the city wall and enter the city in the middle of the night. As for now, he can only look for some loopholes.
He knew that a city like Riverbeach City didn't have too stubborn monsters around, and there were usually some places in disrepair when the walls were built. After searching carefully along the section of the city wall, he found a suitable gap. He was so thin that he could barely squeeze through.
After entering the city, you must be careful to patrol the guards, these guys are not easy to mess with, in the middle of the night the third watch was sent out by the city lord to patrol the original made them angry, if they were caught, the consequences were unimaginable. As for resistance, please, these guards are at least second-order professionals, and the leading sheriff on duty may all have a third-order, which is far from something that a rookie like Marven who has just taken office can resist.
Avoiding the avenues and walking the alleys in the middle of the night, he managed to avoid the patrolling guards and unknown dangers in the city, only when he came around the back door of the Burning Horse Inn, he appeared a sneaky figure.
"Someone's watching?" Marven's heart moved, this is not common. The owner of the Burning Horse Inn is said to have a terrifying background, and no one dares to go wild on her turf.
He quietly walked around to the front door, and sure enough, two dark sentinels appeared. It's just that these secret whistles are too unprofessional, although they are all professional thieves and know some three-legged cat hiding methods, but in Marven's eyes, they are full of loopholes.
He checked it again and again, and finally determined that there were three thieves staring at the Burning Horse Inn. Two at the front door and one at the back.
What they all have in common is that they both have a blood-dripping dagger embroidered on their cuffs. Although the painters did not dare to compliment, at least they were consistent.
Marvin had seen the sign, just an hour ago.
Akron Gangsters.
"Damn, you want to kill me, and you're still beating Sister Anna's idea?"
Marven's heart was on fire, and he held the scimitar and started to sneak, slowly approaching the thief who was watching at the back door.
(Sorry for the update half an hour late, I was too tired yesterday...... By the way, ask for a recommendation ticket)
