Triggered advanced career
Unexpectedly, I actually triggered the advanced profession of Shadow Warrior.
Sauron glanced at the others, with a gleam of joy on his face, and said slowly: "I have made a breakthrough. I feel that I have learned something in terms of skills!"
The halfling looked at him like he was looking at a monster.
Gloria's face was also very strange. In just a few minutes, Sauron's fighting skills can be said to have improved linearly, which is also very surprising for a knowledgeable witch. Only Vivian didn't care about anything, she patted Bai Shengsheng's little hand, and said with sparkling eyes: "Brother is so amazing! Just now it was like playing with a monster!"
Two feats that increase dodge ability.
Although it was not as good as the [Legendary Dodge], [Legendary Reflex Dodge] and [Legendary Intuitive Dodge] that he used to have, it also allowed Sauron to regain the feeling of ease in the battle, even if the battle was very dangerous. He can also find the calmness of dancing on the tip of a knife. Specialties are improved little by little. As long as you understand the most basic specialties and have the attribute conditions to master the specialties, it will be a matter of time before you improve them. As the number of battles increases, the basic specialties will gradually become advanced. Advanced specialization.
Normal dodge is a comprehensive ability, which belongs to the dodge skills extended by agile occupations such as rogues.
Reflex evasion is adjusted according to the agility value. The higher the agility, the faster the nerve reflexes, and the stronger the ability to dodge when encountering a sudden state. The last is intuitive dodge. This dodge is the most difficult and most effective dodge technique. It requires a very strong perception ability and can predict any dangerous attack in advance. Monk is an expert who is proficient in intuitive dodge. If ordinary dodge is an improvement in basic skills, then reflex dodge is an instinctive reaction in a sudden state. As for intuitive dodge, you have an intuitive perception of the next danger before the enemy launches an attack or is about to launch an attack.
[Intuitive Dodge] is one of the most difficult feats to practice. Except for monks and their advanced professions, other professions need to spend quite a long time to practice!
And there are relatively high perception requirements. Later, you need to accumulate your own attributes to extraordinary perception.
Monks have many dodging skills, and they can also extend the specialty of [Deflecting Flying Arrows].
…
The halfling stared at Sauron in shock, and murmured, "Do you want another one?"
Sauron shook his head lightly, and said slowly: "It can't be done. It's almost reached the limit. If I want to improve, I'm afraid I have to accumulate more combat experience. Recently, I have been comprehending something, but I just found it. An opportunity to break through."
Being able to comprehend two specialties in one breath is already a lot of accumulation.
Sauron would not be so naive as to think that he could improve again soon. The following dodge skills all had strict requirements. He just just reached the critical point of breakthrough, and the breakthrough effect was strengthened by the blessing of spells. This kind of body's instinctive reaction is gradually accumulated, the more times you fight, the stronger the instinctual reaction will be, and in the end it will produce a subconscious dodge ability.
"Then let's speed up."
Gloria took a deep look at Sauron, and then said softly, "There are only ten minutes left for the spell."
Sauron nodded, picked up the scimitar, and entered the canyon. The halfling looked at him enviously, and then followed up with the short sword. This kind of impromptu breakthrough really requires talent, and even a hundred wanderers may not be able to do so. There is a temporary breakthrough, and they need a long time to accumulate. A large altar can be seen in the canyon, surrounded by huge stone pillars about ten meters high, the center is divided into nine steps, and the center is a stone platform like a compass.
The outer earth elements are better, but the inner earth elements are obviously different.
They are larger in size, with more rock structures throughout their bodies, and even their appearance is closer to humanoid.
"Be careful." Sauron clenched his scimitar and said in a deep voice: "These earth elementals may be advanced elites, and some of them may have comprehended the [Earth Throwing] skill. If you see them grabbing stones, immediately Get out of the way."
Earth throw.
A magic-like ability, the earth element can condense energy and throw a boulder, and the lethality can reach about 100 points.
Being hit is the result of a spike.
Most elemental life forms have no intelligence, even lower than that of the undead. The intelligent elemental life forms are all legend-level creatures, such as wind djinn, water djinn, earth djinn, etc. Such elemental life forms are Belonging to divine creatures, many are born with demigod godheads, and occasionally can summon powerful elemental gods. The more famous summoning spell is the legendary level [Wishing spell]. The elemental djinn will fulfill some of your wishes according to the principle of equivalent exchange, including resurrecting the dead!
These are the oldest creatures, most of which are sleeping in the elemental plane, and most of the elemental life forms that appear on the material plane have low intelligence, relying entirely on instinct to move in some areas, and occasionally respond to the call of the spellcaster to serve them. This is the case with the earth elements in front of them. They have existed here for a long time, and basically they will not leave the range of the canyon.
…
Sauron gestured to the halfling next to him.
The two teamed up again to attract the attention of the earth elements, the halfling was responsible for restraining the enemy, and Sauron seized the opportunity to cause damage. Gloria glanced at the altar from a distance, her delicate eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if there was a trace of uneasiness in her expression. She looked up at the sky, and there seemed to be a falcon circling, but because the view of the canyon was not good, she could not determine whether it was a wild falcon flying by. Most of the wizards were very vigilant, and Gloria once again blessed a protective spell before approaching the front.
Purebred spellcasters will never use up their spells, and will always leave a few spells for emergencies.
One, two, three.
When Sauron dealt with the ninth earth elemental, the situation in the battle changed suddenly.
I saw that the much taller earth element beckoned, and the huge rock weighing about half a ton flew into its hand automatically, and it threw the rock towards the little mouse that had been harassing it. With the sound of whistling wind between the huge rock, it seemed like a black shadow descended from the sky, smashing the ground into a deep pit in an instant.
"Aladdin!?" Sauron yelled, and his attack speed slowed down by half a minute.
A terrified voice came from behind the rock, and the halfling came out from behind the rock, patted his chest and said, "I was scared to death! It was so close to turning into meatloaf!"
With the agility of a rogue, it is not difficult to get out of the way if you are prepared in advance, but it is more troublesome if you are a fighter.
The Earth Elemental's Earth Throw could only be used once or twice a day, and Sauron didn't dare to be careless. At the same time, he activated the ability of Shadow Attack, which added 6 points of shadow damage while attacking advanced Earth Elementals. Shadow energy can directly attack the energy core of the earth element, and as long as it is successfully contacted, it can erode the elemental energy it forms. The halfling also seemed to be aroused with a little anger, and launched the energy attack of shadow attack at the same time as the attack.
This is the most versatile spell-like attack for rogues below legendary!
The advanced earth elemental quickly fell to the ground. After Sauron took out the elemental core, he rushed to the altar. The nearby earth elementals were almost killed.
Their spell blessings are also about to expire.
The scattered earth elements are still wandering around, they have a warning range, if they don't get close, they won't attract their attention.
"Where's the treasure?" The halfling approached the altar excitedly, and whispered, "There's nothing here, right?"
Sauron looked around vigilantly, and said slowly, "There should be a hidden compartment above."
"Don't go up in a hurry, I'll see if there are any traps nearby."
After finishing speaking, he walked around the altar for a while, and there were scattered earth elementals nearby, but it would be troublesome to deal with them without the blessing of spells. Although Sauron felt sorry for his killing experience, it was better not to kill them all. This kind of place connecting the portal is quite special, there may be things from the elemental plane coming over, and killing them will easily disturb things like the spirit of the earth. He had suffered from this before, killing all the young ones and suddenly an old one popped up.
He quietly gestured towards the back, and when Gloria was about to cast a spell, Vivian stood beside her nervously.
When passing by a stone pillar, Sauron pressed lightly on it, and then the altar made a loud rumbling sound, and a hidden compartment appeared in front of the eyes of the others. Portals require energy to maintain, and most of the sacrifices dedicated to elemental life are gems. These things will not be exposed to the outside, and are usually somewhere in the altar. He gestured to the halfling next to him, who immediately walked up excitedly, then carefully took out several gemstones from it, and quickly put them into his pocket.
Sauron walked slowly along the altar, his figure paused for a moment, he took out a khaki-colored stone from the left corner of the altar, and put it into his pocket in the blink of an eye. It was not very eye-catching at that time, and there was no obvious aura. If you didn't observe it carefully, you might even think it was an ordinary stone. The stone was about the size of a pebble, with a smooth surface, but it was heavy when picked up, weighing almost three pounds.
The thing is here!
Sauron glanced at the halfling, and said in a deep voice: "Take your things and leave quickly. The portal here is invalid, and it may disturb the creatures on the elemental plane."
The altar made a loud rumbling sound.
It seemed that the whole ground had sunk a bit, and the halflings quickly filled the dimensional bag with things. Fortunately, there were not many Kindlers, and most of them were all kinds of gems.
High-level elements sometimes eat them directly, as if they were chewing beans, one bite at a time.
Boom boom boom!
A dull loud noise came from under the altar, Sauron didn't care about the remaining gems, picked up the halfling and ran towards the altar. It is estimated that there is an elemental spirit sleeping, and I hope it will not be something like the spirit of the earth.
"Me!...my jewel!..."
The mournful cries of the halfling were still echoing, Gloria had already cast the spell quickly, and the figures of the four flew up out of thin air.
— "Group Flying Technique!"
The speed of the altar's vibration became faster and faster, and the center even began to collapse. When Sauron and the others flew to an altitude of about 300 meters, a huge rock arm suddenly protruded from the ground, followed by a ten-meter-or-so The rock giant climbed out. It made a dull sound and looked as if it was roaring, but there was no sign of anyone nearby. The huge figure turned around in the canyon, and then re-entered under the altar, which had turned into a gravel-like ruin.
"It's dangerous!" The halfling wiped off his cold sweat, looked at the huge elemental monster, and murmured, "We can't deal with this big guy."
Sauron's expression was relatively calm, but he couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart: "I knew they had something to hide, how could the legendary level missions be announced casually, so there really are guardians below."
The more adventures, the more experience.
In fact, Sauron didn't really believe that the legendary level missions would only be guarded by some earth elements, so he always arranged for Gloria to walk behind, and directly use the flying technique to leave when necessary. The monster just below is estimated to be a rock giant, an advanced branch of the earth element, its strength is only slightly lower than the elemental elder, and its creature level is roughly around 18-20.
This is not something they can handle.
Sauron glanced at the canyon from a distance, calculating in his mind what kind of strength would be able to kill it safely.
The killing experience given by this guy must be extremely high!
