Volume 2 The Imminent Threat Chapter 37 As long as the result is good
Silently feeling the surging fighting energy in his body, Fang Qiuling was full of joy and a little surprised at the same time.
- Breakthrough! That's the real progression!
The Bard's class system is a hodgepodge, with the melee and ranged attack combat abilities of the warrior class, as well as the spellcaster's spellcasting ability, as well as its own chant. Able to melee with a weapon in hand, can use a bow and crossbow to suppress from a distance, can use spells to bring effective buffs or suppress opponents, can use chant to bring secondary support, and even has several healing spells. Bards are involved in every aspect, and there is nothing that is not good at it, and there is nothing that is particularly good at it.
A few days ago, Fang Qiuling inadvertently released a silver-white fighting spirit while studying the bard's technique in the booklet. The fighting spirit is very weak, and the weak one is almost useless. And after a few days of repeated practice, the fighting spirit has increased to a certain extent, but it is still weak, not too weak. Not to mention attaching it to a weapon, even pressing it directly on the cork may not leave a mark.
- That's it?
When the fighting spirit was stimulated, Fang Qiuling was very depressed. I once thought that it was the result of the rapid upgrade of the Book of Destiny system, and there was no realm but no strength that matched the realm. You don't need to be invincible in the same rank, but you can't be the weakest in the same rank!
However, without the rapid upgrade brought by the Book of Destiny system, relying on the accumulation of one's own physical strength and physical strength bit by bit, advancing in continuous training or combat will be an extremely long cycle in time. Among them, it is not only necessary to strengthen physical functions, that is, to improve the six basic attributes, but also to carry out professional martial arts training. Fang Qiuling has missed the best training period, and with the current physiological situation, any small improvement will require a lot of energy and sweat. So if he was given another chance to choose, he would still choose the Book of Destiny system.
If there is an empty realm, there will be an empty realm, otherwise there will not even be this scaring realm. Of course, it is also necessary to stimulate Old Tom, and it must be done without sparing. Old Tom has been at the peak of black iron for a long time, maybe he will advance with a little stimulation. However, the fighting spirit that was stimulated in front of Old Tom was already the limit of the performance at that time, if Old Tom was not bluffed and slapped directly, it would definitely be exposed.
It seems, it seems, probably, probably...... Fang Qiuling wasn't very sure, but he always said that his breakthrough as a bard was a little different from Joestar's. I can't say what the difference is, but I vaguely feel that it is different.
Joestar is an excellent cavalry of the Foggy Night, a pure "kitchen knife profession". The Wuxi cavalry in the game does not have any spell casting ability, and the combat skills mastered only have very common power bursts, charges and homeopathic splits, which is a very pure "kitchen knife profession". After all, the Foggy Cavalry is just an NPC profession of a popular template, and in terms of evaluation, it is an elite militia, which belongs to the kind of passerby profession that has "no future".
The pure "kitchen knife profession" is advanced, and there is only one first-level power mastered, which is the control and restraint of the fighting spirit in the body, and the external manifestation is the release of the fighting spirit. The strength of the fighting spirit determines the strength of the "kitchen knife profession", and the total amount of fighting qi in the body determines the duration of the "kitchen knife profession" battle. Therefore, Joestar only needs to temper his fighting spirit and condense his fighting spirit as much as possible. It's not surprising to be able to break through in training, it's expected.
There are many spell-casting classes in the game, the most representative of which is the wizard, a non-divine caster. There are a lot of wizard players in the game, and as a member of the Iron Triangle of Wizards, the status of wizards in the game is self-evident. Academic wizards, in particular, can be described as the standard for wizards. Academic wizards are pure spellcasters, and their combat effectiveness is measured by the number of spells they have mastered, and the highest level of spells can be cast several times a day. Therefore, the sign of a wizard stepping into the Black Iron Rank is to master a third-level spell and cast it no less than three times in a day.
Spells below the third level are called low-tier spells. The amount of mana required by the caster to cast a low-tier spell is not high, usually between one standard mana unit and three standard mana units. Most spellcasters can use their own mana to complete spells below the third level without having to mobilize the mana that is free from the space. However, from the third energy level onwards, it is difficult for the Mana stored by itself to support the consumption of spells, and mobilizing the Mana free in space has become an indispensable part of spellcasting. This act of mobilizing the mana in space is actually the caster's manifestation of the first level of power. Expand the spiritual realm as much as possible to reach as many free forms as possible, which is an essential process in the caster's power increase. The vastness of the spiritual realm is also an important indicator of the caster's qualifications.
The Bard is not a pure kitchen knife profession, let alone a pure spellcaster profession, it should be regarded as a compound profession of "Demon and Martial Arts Double Cultivation". The game is characterized by the ability to cast spells up to level 6, as well as a certain attack bonus in melee combat and ranged projectile weapons. The class-specific channeling ability can be considered a special ability, or it can be summed up as a spellcasting ability. Similar Demon Martial Arts dual cultivation classes include Ranger and Paladin, and Ranger and Paladin also have good combat ability and relative spell-casting ability.
So what will this kind of demonic and martial arts dual cultivation profession look like in terms of the performance of the first level of strength?
The answer Fang Qiuling gave a few days ago was "Dou Qi Release", because at that time, he thought that he had advanced, and the Dou Qi released was the best proof of advancement. No matter how weak the outgoing fighting spirit is, it is still a fighting spirit, and it is still a manifestation of mastering the first-level strength.
But if he asks the same question now, Fang Qiuling will overturn the previous answer of "Dou Qi is released". Because what is constantly surging at this moment is not pure fighting energy, but a special energy mixed with Mana, which has a certain spiritual trait. This energy is somewhere between the condensation of the vindictive spirit and the emanation of the spiritual realm, showing an excellent inclusiveness.
The more condensed the fighting spirit, the better, and the more vast the spiritual realm emanates, the better. The two cannot be said to be opposites, but they are certainly not in the same direction. Compared with the fighting spirit, it is not condensed enough, and the spiritual realm that emanates is not vast. The quality of this energy is like that of a bard, who knows everything, but is also not proficient in anything.
Quietly feel this energy, and feel the fluctuations that come from it. Fang Qiuling suddenly felt that this kind of energy was extremely similar to Xiao Hanyun's description of aura and spiritual power. But...... This energy does not seem to have a clear name in the bard's power system. The contents of the booklet in his hand had actually been memorized for a long time, but Fang Qiuling still took it out from time to time to take a look. It is because the basic definition of the booklet is very unclear, so many techniques have two or more different ways to be used, and even some of them are completely opposite.
However, after experiencing the energy that is constantly flowing in his body now, Fang Qiuling somewhat understood. It is not surprising that many of the Bard's skills can be used in many different ways.
Elven "Mr. Norn, thank you for your hospitality today. Let's take our leave. ”
[Elven language] "Mr. Norn is not a loss...... Fancy it. Looking forward to seeing you next time. ”
The two elves sat quietly for a while, and when the surging energy in Fang Qiuling's body gradually subsided, they immediately said goodbye.
A slight breeze blew by, and without Fang Qiuling answering, the figures of the two had disappeared.
A slight tremor and a clear direction of the surrounding mana can be felt. Pointing and looking, the two elves landed lightly on the treetops. In an instant, their figures leaped again, and soon appeared farther away in the treetops.
This is a unique way for elves who have mastered the second level of power to move in the forest. The forest is home to the elves, who can teleport short distances by consuming tiny amounts of mana.
The treetops not far away shook violently a few times, and then shook from near to far, thinking about the depths of the forest.
The two special guests left, and the rest of the audience immediately walked away. The strength of the audience has obviously not reached the level of mastering the second level of power, so they can only jump and walk in the treetops. Their steps were equally light, and they soon disappeared into the forest.
“……”
I would like to thank the two elven sisters, if it wasn't for their request to play a song, it would take a long time to realize the true power of the bard.
However, there are some subtle weird feelings in my heart. Because the purpose of the two elf sisters who came here at first should not be to guide him to break through, but purely to listen to music. If it hadn't been for the sudden realization, then I would still be playing "come one, come one, come one......
- If the result is good, then there is no need to delve into the process.
Fang Qiuling quickly convinced himself.
The shadows around him distorted, and Shino immediately appeared beside him.
Fang Qiuling obviously felt that his perception ability had strengthened a lot. This strengthening is not only in the spiritual realm, but also in the five senses, such as sight and hearing.
Shino had a good performance in stealth and shadow traversal, and not long ago, Fang Qiuling couldn't perceive her trace at all. But just before Shino stepped out of the shadows, he caught Mana's tiny fluctuations.
"My lord......" Sino appeared and sat down, quickly noticing the difference between the lords around him, "You broke through again?" ”
"Again?"
Shino's words were not so much an inquiry as an affirmation.
Fang Qiuling plucked his hand on the harp. The light sound of the piano tinkling dong sounded, and inadvertently there was a bit of a low sound in the piano - it did not belong to the low sound of the harp.
"It's not that I've broken through again, it's that I haven't really broken through before."
Fang Qiuling had a simple conjecture in his heart. He stared slightly, then raised the index finger of his right hand.
Silver-white fighting energy surged out on the index finger. The vindictive spirit is erratic, and it still looks fragile.
"Huh?"
Shino was stunned.
Isn't this the vindictive spirit that was stimulated a few days ago? Weak to the point of not being able to do anything. Why is the surging power that just rose to the sky gone? Or was it all fake?
"This is a fighting spirit, but it is a relatively special fighting spirit, which can be understood as...... The vindictive spirit has been skillfully stimulated, and some of the attributes have been strengthened. Fang Qiuling moved his finger slightly, and a sharp aura instantly burst out from his finger, "This is the swordsmanship technique recorded in that swordsmanship manual. Shino, you've seen it too. The fighting spirit that is stimulated through this technique can actually be called 'sword qi'. ”
Shino tilted his head. There was no expression on the petite pretty face, but when you saw her expression, you knew she didn't understand. Shino has little expression on his face, and he doesn't like to talk much, so he belongs to the "action faction". However, her body language is extremely expressive, she can express a lot of emotions with a very simple movement, and she rarely makes mistakes, I have to say that this is also a rare talent.
Fang Qiuling smiled slightly, and then explained: "'Introduction to Saimu Swordsmanship), the techniques recorded in this swordsmanship manual are mainly to sharpen the fighting qi as much as possible, and extend the distance of the fighting qi to achieve the effect of killing at medium and close range. A very practical trick can be said to be. It is difficult to master. ”
Shino nodded vigorously.
During the few days when he was resting in the temple, Fang Qiuling did not avoid Sino when he practiced the skills on the "Introduction to Saimu Swordsmanship", and even took the initiative to teach him when he reached the second level. So far, though, Shino doesn't seem to have mastered the technique.
"The sign of breaking through to the Black Iron Rank is the release of Dou Qi, but this does not mean that Dou Qi is only obtained in the Black Iron Rank. The Unranked Rank can actually gain Dou Qi, but for various reasons, the Unranked Rank cannot release Dou Qi. Of course, the main reason is that the quality and quantity of the fighting spirit are not good, and the basic condition of the body itself does not meet the requirements of the release of the fighting spirit. ”
"I've practiced it, I've mastered the skills in 'Introduction to Saimu Swordsmanship', and I have a little experience." Speaking of this, Fang Qiuling smiled self-deprecatingly, "If you practice it, then there will definitely be some rewards." This is. ”
The fighting qi on his fingers was slightly constricted, and he immediately became fragile again.
Shino was already confused. The two ears on the top of the head flutter from time to time, like two butterflies spreading their wings.
- There is such a thing!
Shino's expression was extremely cute, and Fang Qiuling couldn't help but touch her head.
"Alright, don't think about it. Simple, take this one. Directly stuffed the "Introduction to Saimu Swordsmanship" into Shino's hand, "Shino, your lingua franca should be fine...... Well, that's good, this one is for you. Take a look at it when you have time. It's just difficult, not very difficult. You can, you can definitely learn. ”
"Hmm!"
Shino clenched the scroll in his hand and nodded vigorously.
