84. Assassination under the night
In the end, Sean only consumed two proficiency points to activate the skill of light body technique.
[Light Body Technique: Temporarily removes the influence of gravity on the body, agility +10, lasts 5 minutes.] Magic/2nd Tier/Normal, Level 1/3, Proficiency 1/4. 】
Counting the two new proficiency points added after the successful transfer, Sean's remaining proficiency points still retain seven points.
And because he has just completed the job transfer, his personal attributes have not changed much, but to Sean's surprise, his intelligence has actually increased by five points! For the improvement of these five points of intelligence, Sean felt a little inexplicable, he has not had any special changes recently except for the confrontation with Yoda, is it because of that confrontation that these five points of intelligence have been increased?
[Personal attributes-force: 15+6+2 (18); Stamina: 15+3 (21); Dexterity: 13+6+2 (18); Wisdom: 16+5 (17); Will: 12+5 (20)】
This attribute is not particularly advantageous, but the intelligence approaching the growth limit so quickly still makes Sean feel surprised. However, now that he has transferred to the [Curse Seal Swordsman], he has also begun to have a relatively high demand for intelligence attributes, which not only represents an increase in spell casting speed, but also affects other things such as the growth rate of skill proficiency, knowledge of book reading, and so on.
Gently closing his eyes, Sean began to think about what kind of skills he needed to master in order to fully exert the ability of the [Curse Seal Swordsman] profession while recovering his strength. This is the most important step in this world and in the game, because the third-order profession symbolizes the qualification to start on the stage of the Miracle Continent, and once you have this qualification, you must have your own set of combat systems and rhythms.
This system is made up of occupational characteristics, personal preferences, and various skills. After that, other professional promotions and enhancements are tantamount to improving this system, and any high-level professional NPC and various bosses in the game will have a unique combat system, and the player's so-called strategy is actually a cracking method for this combat system.
Sean believes that this will not change even in this world.
In the current team, Cecilia is still very young, and she has not yet formed her own combat system, so her plasticity is extremely high. As for Alfred, although he has two different fighting skills, his fighting style has not changed because of this, so in essence, it still belongs to a combat system, and through the previous cooperation in the crypt cave, Sean knows that Alfred's combat system has been basically formed, and it is impossible to change, but the plasticity is not as good as Cecilia.
The only thing that can still be operated is to choose the direction of Alfred's fourth-order class: is it a boxer, a constructing warrior, or a magic warrior?
However, all of this can be put aside for the time being, and the most important point is the construction of combat style. However, he has suffered a lot of losses in the game before, Sean will not simply prepare a combat system this time, he decided to take the light body technique as the core point, and develop at least three progressive combat rhythms, otherwise, once the enemy is familiar with his own combat rhythm, then it is very likely that he will be defeated.
But in this world, defeat is often equal to death, and Sean is not in the mood to try how to die in this world.
……
It was late at night, the moon had been hidden for some time, and everything was very dark in the woods.
Sean's strength finally recovered, his eyes opened slightly, and a cold wind blew, cooling his cheeks, which were a little red and slightly hot from excitement. The ideas and inspirations that had been in place for a long time finally erupted completely at this moment, and with the sound in Sean's consciousness, the remaining seven proficiency points were finally completely exhausted at this moment.
Consume a little proficiency point to upgrade the [Arcane Swordsmanship] to level two, but I didn't expect to get a small surprise because of it.
[Arcanic Swordsmanship: When using any sword weapon, Strength +3 and Agility +3.] Swordsmanship/Special/Sword, Level 2/10, Proficiency 1/4. Activate the special skill "Wind Pressure": Increases the damage detection range by up to 1 meter. 】
Consume 2 proficiency points to activate the skill [Entangled Flame].
[Entangled Flame: Resonates with the fire element, adding fire attribute damage to the weapon.] Magic/2nd Tier/Normal, Level 1/3, Proficiency 1/4. 】
Consume three proficiency points to increase [Adrenal Stimulation] to level 2.
[Adrenal Stimulation: By forcibly stimulating the adrenal glands to put yourself in a state of excitement, the reaction ability is increased by 75%, the duration is 3 minutes, the effect disappears and you enter a state of exhaustion, and your full ability is reduced by 30%, support/second-order/normal, level 2/3, proficiency 1/5. 】
After the last time, consume a little more proficiency and put it into the skill of [Combo Slash], and increase its level by one level again.
[Streak: Perform four consecutive attacks.] Swordsmanship/First Order/Normal/Sword, Level 3/5, Proficiency 1/5. 】
This is a set of battle rhythms conceived by Sean, just like the different stages of the battle of those bosses, first test with swordsmanship, if it is easy to win, then there is no need to expose the hole cards of [Curse Mark Swordsman]. And if the opponent's strength is indeed stronger, then naturally you can only borrow some magic skills to win, of course, if this set of tactical rhythm is developed to the extreme, it is a dual combination of swordsmanship and magic, no longer simply swordsmanship or magic-based.
It's just that in this way, Sean's fourth-order career change will be even more troublesome.
But this kind of thing, let's wait until the time comes.
While thinking like this, Sean suddenly rolled to the side, and when his body just finished rolling over and got up, his left hand suddenly raised.
"Ding!"
A slight sound seemed extremely abrupt and strange in the quiet of the night.
In the darkness, Sean's face did not show a trace of panic, just staring intently ahead. Because of this attack, the figure of the person who secretly attacked him was finally really exposed, but unlike Sean's imagination, in this dark environment, he still couldn't see the other party clearly, and could only vaguely see some silhouette shadows, but he couldn't even figure out the identity of the other party.
This discovery made Sean feel a little clear.
Matte materials are a kind of magic materials in this world, and people who can use such equipment, not to mention their deep background, at least definitely have enough funds. In just an instant, Sean understood who sent this person who was going to assassinate him - after coming to this world for so long, the only person who could really be said to have a grudge was the Medusa Chamber of Commerce.
Feeling the force of the scabbard loosen, Sean immediately realized that his opponent was about to escape into darkness once more. Thinking of the trickiness of this enemy, how could Sean let his opponent come and go like this, his left hand fell suddenly, and the scabbard was inserted into the grass, and the strong force shook a breeze, and the slight air flow rotated, forming an unnatural flow in front of Sean, as if there was a layer of transparent tulle blocking the front.
Sean's lips twitched, and a series of short syllables of incantations flew out of the vibrations of his vocal cords. In the next second, while Sean's right foot took a step forward, his right hand had already drawn the sword out of the sheath, and with the sound of the blade grinding out of the scabbard's sheath, a flame began to ignite from the sword, until the tip of the sword was drawn, and Sean's figure gradually raised his head, and his right hand slashed along the momentum, and a slash with a burning flame appeared more conspicuous in this darkness.
But the means of attack are much more than that!
The moment the blade swung, the flames burning on the sword seemed to become more intense, and as the blade finally swung up, a tongue of fire also emerged from the sword and shot out forward!
Entangled Flame!
Wind pressure!
It was originally an invisible wind pressure, but because of the adhesion of the entangled flame, it became a tangible thing. It's just that this time it came down too fast and fiercely, and the sneak attacker didn't have time to react and dodge at all, even though he calculated Sean's counterattack and dodged the slashing attack, but he didn't calculate the wind pressure.
In just an instant, Sean went from a defensive position of half-kneeling to an offensive of swinging a sword to counterattack!
The flames, like the gangrene of the appendage, burned on the enemy's body, because the burning of these flames finally allowed Sean to completely see the identity of this enemy, and it was no longer just a vague outline. The body exposed under the flames is obviously not human, and its body shape is exactly the same as that of the kobold, which makes Sean's judgment of the identity of the attacker even clearer.
However, the battle seems to have ended here.
Because the flame that burns is the flame of magic, although it has lost the supply of magic power because it is out of Sean's control, this flame has a longer burning ability than ordinary flames. That's the terrifying thing about the Coiled Flame, and the average creature is rarely able to resist the damage of the Flame except for some very special ones.
But even so, Sean still did not let his guard down, and Sean would never despise his opponent until he saw the real death of the enemy. Because this is a real world, not a piece of data, no one can guarantee whether their opponent will endure humiliation and steal a fatal blow to himself, and the magician of the Medusa Chamber of Commerce in the crypt passage before is the best example of this.
Watching the kobold slowly fall to the ground, gradually losing his struggle, and then waiting until the flames were completely extinguished and the opponent was motionless, Sean walked towards the kobold, he had to judge the life and death of the kobold with his own eyes.
The moon, as if curious about this scene, crept out of the clouds and cast its gaze down.
The moonlight shone on the kobold's body, completely revealing its hidden figure in the dark, and the dark red skin and unique purple-red texture were clearly exposed under Sean's eyelids.
At this time, I saw Sean's pupils shrink suddenly, but the whole person jumped out of the sword without advancing and retreating, and the burning Charlesian sword suddenly swung up, forming a defensive sword curtain in front of him. Hearing only a strange sound of "bang", there was a huge force in the right hand holding the sword, and the sword edge was deflected, the defensive sword curtain was broken, and a dull serrated dagger flew against Sean's cheek, shaving off a strand of hanging hair.
Sean landed steadily, his eyes fixed on the kobold who slowly got up from the ground after throwing the dagger out.
"Purgatory kobold!"

I wanted to do three shifts today, but the road was being repaired downstairs, and I didn't get off work until 11 o'clock just now, and I was depressed to death. So, there are only two more...... Thank you for your understanding. To make up for it, I recommend a book to everyone.
[bookid=2720595,bookname="Red Mercy Treasure Book"] has a relatively large potential in the recent oriental fantasy, with the taste of toxins.
