The black fluctuations dissipated, and there was only a bang. Brandon flew backwards like a cannonball, while Joshua stood there, covering the two huge wounds on his waist with his hands, blood gushing out like a fountain.
As both sides suffered heavy losses, the battlefield suddenly fell into silence.
"cough."
Coughing and spitting out a mouthful of blood, Brandon slowly tried to stand up from the ground. He was now in the muddy ice water, his blond hair was covered with mud and blood, and he looked extremely miserable.
But even so, he supported the ground with one hand, struggled to stand up, and then asked Joshua loudly with a puzzled look on his face: "Hey, what happened just now? Why did the cracks on your body suddenly disappear? !”
Not long ago, when Brandon used the secret skill of the Nine Swords Steel Soul Style, Divine Speed, to slash at Joshua's body with both blades in his hands, the flaw he was originally targeting, which was the gap in Joshua's waist, suddenly disappeared. Well, in this way, although the two swords caused great damage to the warrior, they did not cause fatal injuries. Joshua also took the opportunity to hit the swordsman in the chest with a Diamond Kingdom Splitting Slash.
"I used a certain posture to make all the flaws disappear temporarily... Moreover, if you hit me, wouldn't I die on the spot? It's really a killing move."
He replied in a deep voice, Joshua contracted his muscles, and the steel-like muscle fibers immediately stopped the bleeding: "If you cut a little higher with this move, I might have to cut off two or three ribs, but because you are too strong I believe in the magic eye, so now I just have two broken intestines."
"It's really strange. Sometimes you are horribly ignorant, and sometimes you seem to know everything. Just like you know the effect of my magic eye and the true name of the Double Blades of Order, but you don't know the information about your own family's Chaos Watcher... "
Sighing, Brandon stroked his chest. There was a deep dent there. He frowned and felt that at least five of his ribs were broken: "Forget it, thank you for being merciful. Otherwise, here would be It’s just a big hole… “
"I'm not as good as others, so I'm willing to lose. This time I lost."
"Hahaha, no matter what, I am very happy this time."
After the fierce fight, the two of them talked to each other as if nothing had happened. Even Brandon, who lost, did not feel unhappy. After all, he had fought as hard as he could, and facing Joshua, losing was normal. In the final analysis, it was not a life and death fight. Fighting to this point is enough.
And Joshua is also very happy, not because he defeated Brandon, the incomplete sword master. To be honest, with the current level of the blond swordsman, it is too much to hope to defeat him. His experience over the years Experience and skill reserves cannot be matched by talent and manpower. It would be a surprise if the other party can bring him enough pleasure and excitement in this competition.
The reason why the warrior is so happy now is because he has been upgraded again.
[You defeated Brandon Kaos, the second swordsman of the Imperial Royal Association, in a one-on-one battle.]
[The opponent's level is LV47, hero template]
[Your level challenge is successful!]
What followed was a long list of reminders about achievements and experience. Joshua ignored them all. He was not interested in any of them, including the improvement of his attributes.
He was only interested in improving his level.
Since the destruction of the time and space gate, the experience value of warriors has been stuck at level 44, barely able to upgrade. Due to the beast tide, all high-level golden monsters have disappeared, and low-level monsters are not worth killing anymore because of the experience penalty. Meaning, this has been determined in the process of hunting the ice dragon.
This time Brandon took the initiative to fight with him, which was really an unexpected surprise. With this step of experience, he can upgrade to lv45.
This level is completely different from the previous ones. At this point, Joshua has officially entered the realm of high-level gold!
"After reaching the gold level, I will unlock many skills in my mind. I will have more methods to face various battles in the future."
Because of the golden warrior's self-healing ability, the two huge wounds on Joshua's waist that were cut by the twin blades of order were almost no longer bleeding, and the severed intestines were reattached under his control. The warrior couldn't help but click again. Nodding: "The self-healing ability is also stronger."
Of course, there are not only a few benefits to advancing to the high gold level. In fact, although warriors are indifferent to this aspect, there is actually a huge difference between the high gold level and the middle and low levels, and that is the number of people in the Imperial Council. status.
Before the coming of the Great Demonic Tide, the average level of the entire Continent of Dispute rose a big step. Although the low-level gold level had a distinguished status, they were just ordinary battlefield commanders, while the middle-level gold level could be regarded as the commander of a party. Just like Odo, the commander of the Black Crow Forward Army where Joshua was at the beginning of his time travel, he is enough to serve as the leader of an army... and Soul Ultimate is a ruling figure at the level of commander of the five armies directly under the emperor.
In the past, no matter how strong Joshua was, he was only an intermediate gold level in the eyes of others. Although it was enough to support his position as earl, he would inevitably be criticized by the great nobles of the imperial capital for his lack of background, even if it was destroyed. In the time and space gate, there will definitely be people who question his strength and possibility, but now, no matter who it is, even the commander of the five armies must pay attention to every word the warrior says.
Level one was nothing to Joshua who was in the system, but to these people, the gap was so huge, it was a world of difference.
And Brandon, who could barely breathe smoothly now, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Joshua's healing speed.
Is this guy awakening to the glory of origin or the glory of will? ! Is this physical quality human? Are you really not a descendant of dragon blood or a true dragon incarnation? !
He looked down at the dent in his chest. Although the warrior's heavy punch with killing intent restrained most of its force when it hit him, the remaining energy still destroyed his self-healing ability, leaving the swordsman Even now my breathing is stinging.
"Joshua, what is your resonance rate with the power of order?"
After thinking about it, Brandon asked cautiously.
"The resonance rate of the power of order, what is that?"
Joshua frowned. He had never heard of this thing either in his previous life or after time travel: "Then again, what is the essential difference between the power of order and the power of purification you just used? Although it feels like They are both sacred, but there are some subtle differences.”
"The resonance rate is the degree of synchronization between you and the power of order. Generally speaking, how much inherited power you can inherit after becoming a Chaos Guardian basically depends on this. The higher the resonance rate, the more you inherit, and the better the effect. , the average person is around thirty or forty at most, and those over fifty are considered to have excellent qualifications."
Brandon explained patiently: "As for the difference between the two, it is probably equivalent to the Heavenly Blazing Holy Light and the Judgment Holy Light of the God's Punishment Priests and Gray Knights. Although they both cause great harm to Chaos, I The power of purification also does considerable damage to other enemies, but the power of order only targets chaos, and the damage to other enemies is quite average."
"I see, no wonder."
Nodding thoughtfully, Joshua looked at the densely packed small wounds on his body. The light cyan purifying power was still lingering on them, as was the huge wound on his waist. Although he tensed his muscles, It has been temporarily allowed to stop bleeding and heal, but it still cannot be put back together quickly.
This purification power actually also has the ability to erode wounds and hinder healing. It seems to be very powerful. Compared with the fluctuation of my own killing intent, the killing power is not much weaker.
"By the way, Joshua, this is the thank you gift I should give you."
He didn't continue to care about the resonance rate of Joshua's power of order. Not to mention the warrior, Brandon also knew that it must be a terrifying number, definitely above 90, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the opponent's strong physical fitness.
His guess was not wrong. Joshua casually found his career list from the system, and then saw the synchronization rate between himself and the Power of Order in the branch list of the Chaos Watcher.
[Synchronization rate: 72+20 (Azure Orb bonus)]
"It's truly a wonder of origin, and it actually has this kind of effect."
After coughing a few more times, Brandon reached for his waist. He took out a silver box from a small bag. This bag was obviously a shrink bag used for storage. The swordsman handed the box to Joe. Xiuya: "This is a gift that Verdani and I chose together. It is a thank you gift for helping Moldova... I hope you like it."
"Then I will accept it without any courtesy."
Joshua took the box, then opened it under Brandon's gesture, and then asked curiously: "A ring?"
"Yes, a magic ring."
Joshua took a closer look and saw that the ring was like two snakes entwined with each other. There was a fiery red twenty-four-sided gemstone at the mouth of the two snakes. It shone with blurred brilliance and looked very beautiful.
But the warrior said with some tangle: "I believe this must be a powerful magic ring, but don't you think that this guy's shape is a bit inconsistent with my temperament? Tsk, this ring is too beautiful. …”
And this style seems to be for women. My friend, I hope I can identify the gender next time I choose a gift.
Joshua was not wrong. Such a double snake ring is indeed a bit too exquisite. Even if it does not have any magical effect, it can be sold for a high price as a gemstone ring that is almost a work of art, not to mention that Veldani is a professional. Golden Mage, her thank you gift must have a very practical solidification spell... But it is precisely because of this that the tall warrior does not fit it very well. If it is forcibly worn, it will feel very inconsistent.
The warrior who is nearly two meters tall and possesses the aura of fear wears a lady ring... Haha, the scene is so beautiful.
"It's very effective. As for the shape, why bother with it..."
Brandon was also a little helpless. He thought with some annoyance that he had forgotten this. The double snake ring was not the only powerful magic item in Moldova's collection. If he had known it, he would have asked Veldani to give him a talisman.
Thinking of this, Brandon recalled something: "By the way, the materials from those golden monsters you killed are all in the caravan behind me. Remember to receive them later."
"OK."
After chatting casually, Joshua took the double snake ring in his hand and used the system to identify its properties.
[Double Snake Ring of Fire: Gold-level extraordinary magic item]
Some people say that I am weak, and I probably understand why. Because when I write a book, my mind is like watching a movie. I have all the details and want to write everything out. The more descriptions I have, the more I become dull.
I tried not to write too much description in this chapter, I don’t know how it feels.
Today's fourth update, I'll see if I can write a fifth update tonight... Please give me a vote!
