Level 3 professional!
It's a little troublesome!
But for Marvin, it's just a little bit. Now there is only the other party left, and his pressure has been relieved a lot.
With a machete, a gang member with agility and strength is not low, and most of them are [gangster swordsmen]. This special Tier 1 occupation is a variant of Warrior, but it is more offensive and has an average physique.
Marvin quickly glanced at the data panel. He had just killed four members of the Akron gangsters. He gained 59 killing experience points, and the experience required for a second-level ranger is 50 points!
Quickly allocated 50 points of killing experience to the ranger, a wave of heat passed through him, and he immediately became a second-level ranger!
With the increase in level, his health increased by 13 points, for a total of 50 health points. At the same time, the newly added professional skill points are 24 points, without any free attribute points. Free attribute points are a valuable resource that can only be obtained by upgrading two career levels.
Of the 24 professional skill points, he allocated four points to stealth, and reserved the remaining 20 points for now.
The gangster's swordsman came fiercely, a powerful slash!
He wanted to split Marvin in two!
Unmoved, Ma Wen was extremely calm. With a relaxed and freehand dodge, he went around behind a big tree.
boom!
The backhand of the knife hand is another knife! Marvin jumped back, the knife slashed directly on the book, the bark shattered, and sawdust flew everywhere!
"Go to hell!"
The swordsman roared ferociously. He exerted all his strength and pulled out the machete. Who knew that at this moment, Marvin suddenly rushed into his arms!
The knife hand was caught off guard, and was staggered by Marvin's impact. He took a few steps back and almost dropped the machete in his hand!
It's now!
Even under high-speed movement, he can still quickly make various battle-related judgments, which is a kind of fighting instinct.
With a flash of cold light, the scimitar cut across, and slashed at the waist of the swordsman!
The next second, a sharp pain came from Marvin's right hand, and the knife hand grinned, grabbing Marvin's wrist with both hands.
"You fucking think you can hurt me?"
Marvin didn't speak, he ignored the pain, and also ignored the frequently flashing battle records:
[Normal attack failed, right wrist was captured, confrontation appraisal...]
[The power is suppressed, unable to break free!]
Just when the swordsman was triumphant, Marvin's left hand appeared near the neck of the swordsman like the coldest poisonous snake.
He holds a dagger in his left hand. This is a barely usable item among the trophies left by the thief.
"ah!"
A shrill scream cut through the night sky, and Marvin cut his throat mercilessly!
The knife hand loosened his hands and fell to the ground in horror.
Blood gushed out, and after a while, the twitching gangster knifeman died unexpectedly.
Ma Wen rubbed his severely painful wrist, thinking that the strength of this saber hand was more than 16 points visually. It's a pity that his combat experience is really too weak.
It is not wrong to die at the hands of the former master of the night.
He searched a little bit, and found that the gangster swordsman was quite rich, with a total of 29 silver coins, and some scattered things, but the value was not high.
It is a pity that Marvin did not find information on why these Akron gangsters killed themselves on the bodies.
Why would a gangster want to make things difficult for a poor and unrepentant aristocrat
This is illogical.
You must know that murdering nobles is a very serious crime. As long as it is exposed, the Akron gang will definitely be destroyed. Even if Marvin is just a down-and-out nobleman who lost his territory.
And killing him doesn't gain anything. The risks and benefits are not proportional, which is so strange.
Disposing of the corpses of these five people hastily, Marvin really didn't have the heart to catch crabs. He was going back to River Beach to find out who was trying to kill him.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed some changes in the soul-bound task in the task bar.
In the task description column, the following text is added:
[... The pursuit near the Songzi River beach makes you realize that everything is wrong. Someone wants to kill you, it is very likely that it has something to do with the group of gnolls that appear strangely around your territory. There are mixed fish and dragons in the river beach city, but no matter who is behind the scenes, as long as he still wants to achieve his goal, the truth will always come to light one day.]
At the same time, this main task also has an additional sub-task [The Black Hand Behind the Scenes], the main idea is to let Marvin find out the behind-the-scenes black hand behind everything.
The rewards for the side quests are not too thin, 100 points of general experience, anyway, Marvin must find out the truth of the matter, and these 100 points of general experience are almost free.
…
On the way back to the city, he carefully chose a quiet and safe side road, avoiding other members of the Akron gang who might be there.
As he walked, he flipped through the battle records. This is a good habit. You can review the battle after the event, calculate the gains and losses, and summarize the problems.
If things go on like this, the combat level will definitely improve.
But what surprised him was that he found these few items in the combat records:
[You repeatedly use a standard technical action in battle, which is more than 98% similar to the Phantom Assassin's professional skill Cut Throat. You can spend 500 killing experience points to turn it into your personal exclusive skill.]
[You repeatedly use a standard technical action in battle, which is more than 95% similar to the Phantom Assassin's professional skill Shadow Cut, and you can turn it into your personal exclusive skill by spending 2000 killing experience points.]
[Because you repeatedly use the technical moves of other professions in battle, one of your personal specialties will be closer to this aspect. Personal expertise formation progress: 9/100]
…
"Using the skills of other professions, can you turn them into your own personal skills?"
Marvin was slightly stunned, he had never heard of such a statement before.
But he immediately realized that it might not be that simple. The battle records clearly stated that a "standard" technical move must be used repeatedly, and at the same time the similarity exceeds a certain level, in order to convert it into one's own personal exclusive skill by spending killing experience. Personal exclusive skills cannot be increased through skill points, but can only be slowly improved through continuous training.
Marvin also noticed that it seems that the higher the similarity between the standard technical action used repeatedly and the original skill, the less killing experience it needs to spend. Both Cut Throat and Shadow Step are Phantom Assassin's signature skills, but the killing experience spent by the two is very different.
"500 killing experience points..."
To be honest, Marvin was a little moved, but also a little bitter. Killing experience is very difficult to obtain and is one of the highest level of experience. If the killing experience is spent on this aspect, it will undoubtedly delay his upgrade speed.
However, this problem has not yet reached the point where it must be resolved, because the unallocated killing experience on hand is only 39 points, which is still far from the 500 mark.
What made him more concerned was the personal specialty. In his previous life, he hadn't heard of any specialties that could be formed by repeatedly using other professional skills.
You should know that there are three types of personal expertise, those acquired by nature, those acquired by training, and those acquired by awakening talents. Marvin's body is quite useless, and he doesn't have any personal specialties that he has acquired innately. He can only increase them through acquired training. For example, the personal expertise that is currently being formed is mostly of this type.
As for the last type, the personal specialty of awakening the acquired talent is quite rare. Marvin never counted on this, although his race clearly stated "Human/?", which meant that he had blood from other races, but very thinly.
In any case, being able to form expertise is naturally a good thing. Specialties are good things that can help adventurers in addition to attributes and skills.
It was already late at night, and River Beach City implemented a semi-curfew system. Although the gates of the city were closed relatively late, no one was allowed to walk on the streets after twelve o'clock. The gates of the city are closed, and some extraordinary means must be used to enter the city.
In the past, when Marvin was the master of the night, relying on his expertise in flying over eaves and walls and some special magic devices, it was a breeze to climb over the city wall and enter the city in the middle of the night. As for now, he can only find some loopholes.
He knew that in a city like River Beach City, there were not too stubborn monster forces around, and the construction of the city wall usually had some places that were in disrepair. After searching carefully along the section of the city wall, he found a suitable gap. He was small in stature and could barely squeeze through.
After entering the city, you must be careful to patrol the guards. These guys are not easy to mess with. Being sent out by the city lord to patrol in the middle of the night made them full of resentment. If they were caught by them, the consequences would be disastrous. As for resistance, please, these guards are at least Tier 2 professionals, and the leading sheriff on duty may have Tier 3, which is far from something that a rookie like Marvin who just took office can resist.
Avoiding the avenue, walking like a fish in water in the small alleys in the middle of the night, he successfully avoided the patrolling guards and unknown dangers in the city, but when he went around the back door of the Lime Hotel, he found a sneaky figure.
"Someone is watching?" Marvin's heart moved, this is not common. The owner of the Ridge Inn is said to have a terrifying background, and no one dares to act wildly on her territory.
He walked around to the front door calmly, and sure enough, he also found two secret whistles. It's just that these secret whistles are too unprofessional. Although they are all professional thieves and know some tricks of hiding, they are full of loopholes in Marvin's eyes.
He checked repeatedly, and finally confirmed that there were three thieves staring at the Ritual Horse Hotel. Two front doors and one back door.
What they all have in common is a bloody dagger embroidered on their cuffs. Although the painters are not flattering, at least they are unified.
Marvin had seen the sign just an hour ago.
Akron gang.
"Damn, you want to kill me, and you're still thinking about sister Anna?"
Marvin was furious, holding the scimitar, started sneaking, and slowly approached the thief who was watching from the back door.
(Sorry for the update half an hour late, I was too tired yesterday...By the way, please recommend a ticket)
