Bang! !
In the narrow alley, there was a dull sound of breaking through the air, followed by the shrill noise of metal rubbing against each other. Listening to the sound, it seemed that the fine dagger thrown by Joshua did not penetrate into the wall in the shadow, but hit some kind of metal. , fell to the ground.
At the same time, a figure appeared from the shadow in the distance and quickly took a few steps back.
This is a warrior wearing full-body armor. The armor has many small protrusions made to slide away arrows. It is precisely because of this that the dagger thrown by Joshua only scratched and fell, instead of penetrating it. But now, even if they couldn't see his expression, the two people present could feel the warrior's surprise.
"silencer?!"
Whispering in surprise, Chris recognized the warrior who had been beside his father and couldn't help but take a step back.
He had just been hinted by Joshua and chatted for a while. He originally thought it was to lighten the atmosphere, but he didn't expect that someone was lurking around! As an alchemist, his senses are much higher than those of ordinary warriors. How come he has no sense at all? !
The warrior standing in the distance seemed as surprised as Chris.
"Can't believe it?"
Joshua raised the corner of his mouth slightly. He used his right hand to pull out the spear inserted into the ground and entered a fighting posture: "Shadow assassin and psionic warrior specializing in silence? A good combination, psionic silence aura plus shadow stealth." , can still wear heavy armor while sneaking silently, which is indeed a first-class concealment and life-saving ability."
"If it were someone else, they would definitely not be able to detect it, but in my opinion, your silent aura is simply a large sound barrier. When you sneak up, all the sounds on the left side disappear. Even a fool will know that something unexpected has happened. .”
When making this big call, Joshua tilted his head and motioned for Chris to stay away quickly. The enemy in front of him was a high-ranking silver-level enemy. If the two of them fought, the damage caused would be like two artillery blasts, and they would be easily affected. Injured, although he was confident that he could kill the opponent within ten seconds, it would be bad if something unexpected happened.
As a special transformation of warriors, psionic warriors often have several special supernatural abilities. Although it seems that silencers currently only have spell counterattack abilities, they may have other trump cards.
The Silent One did not pay attention to the departure of his employer's son. He just stopped where he was, looking at the soldier in front of him in surprise through the armor.
As a psychic warrior who has sworn a vow of silence, he has the supernatural ability to interrupt spell chanting and hide his voice. However, in contrast, he cannot speak for life, and he can only rely on spiritual communication to communicate with others.
This is not a big deal, it is just the price of gaining strength. In fact, with the ability of silence combined with shadow stealth, the Silent One believes that he has achieved the best of his life-saving and assassination abilities, but even the best swimmers will occasionally choke on the water. , being discovered by Joshua was indeed a bit difficult for him to accept, but it was not this that shocked him the most.
(Unable to communicate?! Will... is like the hardest stone, completely unable to communicate! In this case, psychic attacks will also be greatly reduced!)
Unable to see the expression behind the armor, the Silent One looked at Joshua, who was about to charge at any moment, and felt extremely troubled: (I have never seen such a stubborn spirit, and he is still a warrior. My 'Interrupt Spell Chanting' is completely useless. It’s a place of martial arts, and he seems to be able to see through my stealth, so he can’t fight at all!)
Thinking of this, he began to retreat slowly: (Facing him, I can't even use half of my strength, so I'll retreat first.)
"Want to leave?"
Of course, Joshua didn't know the opponent's struggle. He just discovered the opponent's intention to retreat with his keen intuition and observation ability. Then, without saying a word, he mobilized the muscles of his arm, aimed the spear in his hand and shot away!
Years of combat experience not only allowed him to skillfully use various weapons, but also allowed him to use a hatchet as a sword and a spear as a javelin. This spear shot broke the air and brought a shrill buzzing sound, and the momentum was overwhelming. Everyone felt that it could easily penetrate any armor, and the Silent One was no exception. Faced with this blow that blocked the escape route, he felt a real life threat.
But the Silent One is a high-level silver professional after all, and he is relatively far away. If they were to fight each other face to face, Joshua would definitely have an absolute advantage in a split-second fight. He would not have a chance to escape, but it was just a handful. If you throw a gun from a distance, it won't be able to stop him.
A faint light appeared on the gray armor. Under the influence of a force that appeared out of thin air, the direction of the gun was deflected and flew towards an empty corner. It splashed out countless rubble and dust mist like a bombardment, and the surrounding residents Everyone screamed. Taking advantage of the chaos, the Silent One took out a scroll from nowhere. With the fluctuation of magic power, his figure suddenly disappeared.
"Advanced invisibility scroll?"
Under the dim light of the spell, Joshua recognized the effect of the spell. He originally wanted to pursue him, but he stopped and frowned slightly, feeling helpless.
A scroll of advanced spells was thrown in a small encounter, what else could he do? The combination of silent halo, advanced invisibility and shadow stealth, even the dust of development can't do anything about it. Although this guy may not have half of his frontal combat power, if he really wants to escape, even a strong gold man can't stop him.
"It's a pity, if I still had the all-seeing eye..."
Sensing that the silent area caused by the opponent's silent aura was quickly moving away, Joshua clicked his tongue and couldn't help but miss the "Omniscient Eye", a passive skill he had in the Continent of Disputes.
This passive skill allows him to see through all disguises, stealth and invisibility within the field of vision, and can also discover enemies hidden underground and in the woods. It can be regarded as one of the most powerful passive skills. In order to obtain this ability, Qiao Xiuya killed at least a dozen and a half beholder elders on the ninth level of the Underdark, and then he collected enough sacrifices for the omniscient ritual.
"However, the ritual ability of the Omniscient Eye is an exception. I have the 'Extreme Intention of Skills', and ordinary skills should be used at will."
Opening the attribute board and reading the words [MAX] in the skill column again, Joshua remembered the Qi-raising slash he used before, and thought thoughtfully: "It seems that as long as the experience is still there, The system will admit it.”
As we all know, a game cannot have one skill that can conquer all, but in the later stages of the game, the many skills are simply annoying. If you don’t use them, you won’t be able to use the charge skill even if you make a charging move or even really rush out. , and sometimes when encountering a sudden crisis, the skills in the shortcut skill keys cannot cope with the situation at that time, and it is impossible for ordinary people to quickly find the one they need from hundreds of skills... The ending is naturally death. Home awaits resurrection.
However, after advancing to legend, everything is different.
For players who have advanced to Legend, the Strife Continent game system cancels all assistance. Archers have no crosshairs to aim at, and warriors do not automatically lock. Mages must actually complete the spells and rituals before they can release their skills. However, in contrast, warriors If you want to charge, you only need to run with all your strength. To cleave, you don't need to press the skill button. You can just pick up the weapon and slash with all your strength. The same goes for other professions.
Legendary game characters no longer have active skills that can be released by pressing buttons. All abilities need to be controlled and released by themselves. To a certain extent, this is to limit the player's strength, extend the life of the game itself, and increase playability. In fact, This is indeed the case. After suffering for a period of time, many players laughed and said that the game begins after the legend.
What replaces the active skills is the so-called Ultimate Intent - [Extreme Intention of Skills]
People with this mark can freely release any skills they have mastered. Unfortunately, the ones that Joshua remembers deeply are all the powerful skills that can only be used by at least gold level. The only few passive skills that he remembers are not the same. He will be assimilated by Jiyi, but he has to start practicing now. The ritual ability of the Omniscient Eye requires him to go back to the Underdark to kill half a dozen beholder elders and start the omniscient ritual again. With his current Silver-level strength , I really don’t know what year and month I have to wait.
At this time, Chris who ran into the alley not far away ran out. He looked at the situation and said in surprise: "The fight is over so quickly?"
As a black iron-level alchemist, Chris's physique is not much better than that of ordinary people. In order to avoid being injured by the aftermath, he simply found a place to hide. As a result, all the sounds outside disappeared after a while. , so that he couldn't help but come out to take a look at the situation.
Joshua walked to the corner, pulled out the spear embedded in the stone wall, and said casually: "No, he ran away. He was so decisive that even I couldn't stay." As he said that, he waved his hand. Weapon, with an unhappy look on his face: "The barrel of the gun was half broken. How long has it been since it broke down so quickly?"
"Forget it, it is an ordinary standard weapon after all. It is normal that it is not durable."
Once again, he missed the great immortal rune sword he used in the game. Joshua threw away the broken spear in his hand, turned to look at Chris, and then frowned and said, "Chris, what's behind you?" Someone—what’s going on? Why are there so many sneaking around?”
"ah?"
After hearing the reminder, Chris was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly reacted - he still believed in his cousin's sensing ability, so without any hesitation, the alchemist immediately took out a handful of bright lights from his arms. The glittering dust was thrown decisively behind him.
Wow - A blurry figure suddenly appeared in the alley while the light powder was flying. Judging from the body shape and posture, it should be a woman. She froze in place, as if she didn't expect that she would be discovered.
"The stealth is perfect. If it weren't for the strong smell on my body, I wouldn't have noticed it."
Joshua approached slowly but really quickly, walked up to the female stalker who had no intention of leaving, and said solemnly: "I can see that you have no ill intentions, otherwise Chris would have died several times. In that case, I will give it to you." An opportunity.”
As he spoke, the warrior raised his right fist and looked directly at the opponent: "Tell me why you are here, sneaky stalker, or I will keep you alive."
