Abyss Domination

Chapter 17: Advanced Thieves

Views:

The corpse of the snake demon is actually quite valuable.

For example, its snake skin can be peeled off to make first-order enchanted leather armor, its heart is the favorite of many spellcasters, and even its blood can be used as an alchemy material. However, there is a more troublesome thing, that is, it is very difficult to get rid of demonic items, at least in southern cities.

by contrast.

It's better to let go of the weapon.

Besides, Sauron couldn't take so many things with him. Once the information about the Snake Demon is revealed, it is very likely to attract investigation by the church.

Summoning demons to come to the material plane will be judged!

"Increase the professional level of thieves."

Sauron treated the wound briefly, and then raised the thief professional level again.

He didn't have healing potions on him, so he could only recover from his injuries with the help of his professional level, at least he could reduce his injuries to a 'slightly injured state' by relying on the increase of his health.

A row of data emerges:

"The thief profession has been raised to level 5."

"Gain 24 (Agility value 20 + (Intelligence 18-10) * 0.5) skill points, HP increased by 11 points (professional life 6 points + (Constitution 19-10) * 0.5)."

"Comprehend the combat skill [Shadow Attack]!"

"The professional level of the thief has been raised to the second level!... Get the potential of a blood purification ceremony!..."

"Get an extra bit of professional expertise!"

Sauron glanced at it, but ignored the others.

The promotion from Tier 1 professional to Tier 2 professional is relatively obvious. The former belong to the gangsters who make small troubles in the city, while the latter has the qualification to leave the city for adventure. Tier 2 professionals can get an extra specialty point, but it is only limited to the choice of professional specialties. For example, Sauron's profession is a thief, then he can get an additional professional specialty of thief, and cannot get other professional specialties and personal specialties. .

Skill points are all allocated to traps.

This treasure cave has not been fully explored, Sauron needs to strengthen his trap detection ability.

Tier 2 thieves have three professional specialties to choose from.

They are:

"Blind combat [Mastering]: After hiding in the shadows for a long time, the thief has gradually become accustomed to fighting in the dark. His fighting style is no longer limited to sight, hearing, intuition, smell, etc. have also become his judgment factors in fighting. , Even in a state of complete darkness, thieves can have good combat power. [Dodge +1, Hit +1]."

"Military weapons [mastery]: Professionals have been able to use all military weapons after long-term training, including but not limited to long swords, giant swords, scimitars, crossbows, two-handed giant swords, spears, flails, etc. .Professionals can use all military weapons proficiently, know how to use them to cause greater damage, and how to hit the enemy more easily. [Hit +1, Damage +1]."

"Dodge [mastery]: The thief has learned how to use his dexterity in long-term battles. He can make many moves that are difficult for ordinary people to avoid attacks. [Dodge +1, conditioned reflex +1]."

For that precious specialty point, he undoubtedly chose the military weapon [mastery] specialty that he had obtained for the first time.

This is a very important professional specialty.

Most melee professionals must master it, because it means that you can use most weapons proficiently to deal with emergencies encountered during adventures. And it is also a prerequisite for learning many basic combat skills, such as the combat skill [Sword Poses - Heavy Slash] after mastering the 'basic swordsmanship', this requires the prerequisite for military weapons [mastery].

This is the fighter's class specialty.

Basically, you can have it after advanced. Sauron doesn't have the time to train for a long time, so he can only get it through specialty points.

If it is normal training.

It would take one or two years to obtain this specialty, to fully complete the familiarity with all military weapons, and this time is enough for him to do too many things.

As for the potential of the last bloodline purification, that is something that only local tyrants can afford.

simply speaking.

It is to purify one's own blood potential, to regain a life value calculation according to the current physique, and to cleanse the impurities in one's body.

For example, Sauron's current HP is 52 points.

If he held a blood purification ceremony, then his life value would be - [professional life 6 + (19-10) * 5] * 5 + 19 constitution + 10 basic life = 84 life points.

It is equal to the life value of 3 career levels more than now!

Very perverted blood enhancement.

But it is also very expensive. The advanced ceremony requires more than 1,000 Kindlers.

This kind of ceremony can be held once every time you advance.

The biggest improvement should be the one after entering the legendary professional level, because after holding the bloodline purification ceremony, you can get the special talent of [Legendary Life].

This is the key to many melee professionals being able to head-to-head with adult dragons!

Bloodline Purification Ritual.

Sauron didn't think about it for the time being, because it was the same whenever the ceremony was held, it was just to increase the life value according to the physique and occupation level again. This kind of ritual requires a lot of rare materials, as well as the basic skills of [Spell Identification] and [Learning], it is difficult to meet its requirements in the early stage.

You must know that there was once a Warlock teammate who wanted to advance to Dragon Vein Warlock, but the entire team of Sauron was emptied of their private money.

A conservative cost of 1000 Kindler.

This money is enough for Sauron to arm himself, and his combat effectiveness has more than doubled!

at this time.

After Sauron became a second-order thief, his attributes changed.

"Name: Sauron.

Race: Half-elf.

Attributes: Strength 12, Dexterity 20 (+1), Constitution 19, Intelligence 18 (+1), Perception 15, Charisma 16.

Alignment: Lawful evil.

Occupation: Level 10 civilian (full level) / Level 5 thief (0/3000) [Tier 2].

Health: 52/52.

Experience points: 950 (killing experience), 0 points (professional experience) [unassigned].

Skill Points: None.

Attribute points: None.

Status: OK.

Occupational Skills - Stealth 102, Stealth 35, Lockpicking 45, Traps 54.

Legendary Skill - Almighty Hand [Seal] (weak state).

Personal expertise - dexterous left hand, photographic memory, perseverance.

Occupational Specialties—Shadow Mastery, Martial Weapons [Mastery].

Combat Skill - Shadow Attack.

…”

Starting from entering the second-tier professional, the experience points needed to improve their strength began to increase significantly.

But at the same time, he also mastered a powerful combat skill, which is the [Shadow Strike] ability that Sauron has been looking forward to.

"Shadow Strike [Combat Skill]: An advanced thief has gradually touched the power of the shadow field. When he attacks the enemy, he can rely on his mastery of the shadow power to launch a spell-like attack. Shadow Strike can be launched Backstab assassination is activated at the same time, causing an additional 5 points of shadow damage to the target that ignores physical defense.

Each rogue class level of this ability can increase the damage by 1 point, and increase the number of times it can be used once. "

(The thief's pre-feature [Shadow Mastery] is required.)

This is a very powerful ability.

With Sauron's current thief class level, he can use Shadow Attack 5 times a day. As long as the opponent has no shadow resistance, it will directly cause 5 points of shadow damage that ignores defense.

This is a fatal threat to the relatively weak health of low-level professionals in the early stage!

The second order is a watershed.

The wizard began to master the third-level arcane art, and finally got rid of the range of low combat effectiveness. Soldiers begin to master Qi Lifting Slash, preparing for advanced knights, sword masters, weapon masters, etc. in the future. The monk has almost mastered the ability of true energy. Whether it is an advanced ascetic monk or a boxing master in the future, he needs to lay a solid foundation now.

Basically all professionals will have a substantial improvement after the second level!

Rogues also start to specialize from here, whether it is a thief with superb theft ability, a stalker with amazing stealth ability bonus, or an assassin who is proficient in assassination skills.

Everything has to be decided now.

However, Sauron has no plans to advance to the next level. Leaving aside the harsh conditions required to advance to special occupations, the mere need to spend 5,000 points of killing experience to advance to special occupations has already discouraged him. It takes a long time for the aborigines in the plot to advance to special occupations. Although Sauron skipped this step, he needs to use killing experience (soul energy) to make up for it.

Advancement is not necessarily a good thing.

Thief's combat power is low, stalker's explosive power is insufficient, and assassin's lethality is strong but their comprehensive ability is not good.

In terms of survivability, the thief is still the strongest!

At least until there are more than ten personal specialties, any advanced professions are not as easy to use as basic professions.

certainly.

If you have mastered dozens of specialties, including but not limited to personal specialties, occupational specialties, natural specialties, etc., no matter what profession you advance to, it will be very powerful. For example, unarmed combat [Grandmaster], inch strength [Legendary], blind combat [Legendary], super sixth sense, intuitive dodge [Legendary], conditioned reflex [Legendary], etc., as long as you want, even running naked with your eyes closed He can defeat an army by himself.

After all, professional level is only a part of strength.

Life-and-death combat depends on your comprehensive strength. It is not only about the professional level, but also the power added by attributes, the ability brought by specialties, and the lowest piece of wood in the bucket. (The lowest plank in the bucket determines how much water it can hold.)

That is the key to determine whether you can stand up to the legendary realm!
