"Name? Age? Occupation? What are you good at? What goals do you pursue?"
"Aaron, 16, black iron warrior, my swordsmanship is very good, I want to make money and become a hero to save the world!"
Looking at the young man with a smirk in front of me, I nodded. This simple black-faced teenager reminded me of Adam in the past.
"Next."
16-year-old Hei Tie, what else can you do, can you advance to gold in three years? This is not a nursery school, so you should find a rookie team to polish it together.
"Kavin, over thirty, silver shaman. My goal is to make enough money to buy the Fire Dragon Circus."
"Dish, in his forties, I'm his older brother and a proud warrior. My goal is to be a good older brother."
"I'm the elder brother! Dia, you idiot who can't even count numbers, we were born together, why are you ten years older than me."
Well, this is a rare ogre shaman. It is said that it used to be the pillar of a certain circus. Later, the circus collapsed, so he came out as a mercenary to live by himself, and planned to make money to start a new circus.
"I'm the brother!"
"It's me. Don't be afraid of you just because you can play tricks that make your hands glow. I have the strength."
"Okay, let's guess, whoever wins is the eldest brother."
"Okay, one, two, three, ha, stone."
"I'm Bu, I won, I'm the big brother."
"Carvin, you are slow, don't count! Come again, or I will beat you."
"Whoever is afraid, today I will let you know the majesty of your brother. You idiot who can't even count nine."
But now, this rarer double-headed ogre Cavendish has actually started a fight because the head is his brother. He was beating and screaming at the same time. .
I nodded silently. This double-headed ogre is indeed very strong. He is born with dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, and his comprehensive combat power has definitely reached the golden level of human beings. It is indeed quite rare. More importantly, the rookie just now is different. be able to become instant combat power.
"Next."
But what I lack now is not combat power, but normal people. There are enough perverts and weirdos in the team. If there is another person who is born to fight each other, is he going to laugh at his opponent
On that day, after discovering the general lack of morality and common sense in the "gentlemen's group", I decided to recruit two more normal people considering that the morality value must be raised a little.
Of course, there is another reason that in this human kingdom, there are too many alien races in the gentlemen. If they use non-humans to communicate with their clients, it will inevitably make people think, so even if I want to decorate the front, I plan to hire a few people. Like a mercenary, it would be better if you were familiar with the local snakes in this city.
Even if it can't help, it can also play a cover-up role. If such a group of aliens act together too conspicuously, a few aliens in a group of human mercenaries will be much better.
It's not too late, I do what I think of, so early this morning, I set up a booth at the entrance of the Mercenary Association to recruit people. With the "friendship sponsorship" of the Earl of Broken Egg, the salary offered is quite considerable.
But unfortunately, my foreigner status and background that I can't check, coupled with the tense atmosphere of the succession ceremony, made the senior mercenaries wait and see, not the recruits who are completely useless, or this It's a super weird thing that other teams don't accept.
Glancing at Cavendish, who was still blogging left and right, I shook my head helplessly, got up, closed the stall and left. It seems that today was a waste of a morning.
But when I passed the bounty bar, I stopped.
"A-level reward mission: find out the real murderer who destroyed the sewer in the northwest corner of the Pearl District, regardless of life or death, the reward is 200,000 gold coins."
This is a big deal. The A-level reward can directly raise my unranked hired team by a few levels. These 200,000 gold coins are enough to buy a mansion in the Pearl District, which is expensive. Weird destruction will involve the official nerves of Oran.
I hesitated for a moment, considering that I have made a lot of money recently, and I really don’t have a lot of money. Although it would be cool to send that increasingly dangerous bomber out for a bonus, but in the end, it will mostly involve myself. Helpless, I It's a pity to miss the opportunity to completely miss a trouble.
Yesterday, when I was communicating with the Earl of Broken Egg, as expected, I was looking for a strange face to do things, just to kill people. When I saw that there were only three of us, and two women, I was going to try to meet the poor, Diana smashed the evil. After cutting down a dozen or so, Chloe destroyed the roof and the rest, and then I took out the devil's contract.
The fat earl was still very knowledgeable. Seeing that the paladin skillfully used the devil script to modify the evil contract, he was so surprised that his jaw was dislocated. It was like seeing an angel and a devil dancing together.
After that, it was even simpler. After signing the contract, seeing his paralyzed appearance, and considering that the water should be smooth, it would be bad if the fish died and the net broke. As a temporary station, and then let him provide information as my eyeliner.
Of course, the devil's contract is also increased bit by bit, making people hooked little by little. At the beginning, playing big, wouldn't it scare away the fat sheep.
The old house is also in Mingzhu District. I’m still very satisfied. It’s not a good idea to always stay in a hotel. Although the mansion is a bit old, the decoration and garden are still quite high-grade. Now the members are cleaning in the temporary station. I, the human captain, just took the opportunity to come out to recruit people.
If it's just me, it won't be so eye-catching. Without those guys who are in arrears, they should be able to recruit normal people.
Well, it's definitely not to evade the duty of cleaning, to find excuses to be lazy, or something that a decent Paladin like me would do
"It seems that if you don't have a reputation, you won't be able to recruit any decent people. Why don't you try the legendary traverser's required course and dig out those future heroes who are still unlucky? Well, if the plot time is up, It should have been born. Hey, when I just drew a strategy, I thought that He Legend Novel would receive a lot of super boys, but I didn't expect that their ancestors were still fertilized eggs. I was embarrassed at the time, this should be better than It was even more frustrating when I finally made glass, only to find that that thing came out long ago. Oh, I have no scruples about digging the corner of the Oran Empire."
Imagining going out in the future, with a group of epic heroes behind them, I can't help but imagine.
"I remember that the Swift Sword and the Magician are both in the capital of Oran, or should I go find them tomorrow? Well, let's go to the Earl of Broken Egg to get some information, then, the recruitment task is done, then Where are you going to kill time?"
"Hey! This big brother."
"You haven't told me whether to hire us. We want money to revive the circus, and we are very obedient."
Just as I was staring at the wanted notice, I even started to think about how long it would take for the cleaning to be completed, and where to go to kill the time. Suddenly, my eyes darkened, and then two ugly faces suddenly appeared in front of me, spraying me with a stench all over my face. .
"Ghost!"
Well, faster than exclamation, it is the instinct of the body. Before I can react, the fist has been punched out, and the touch also hit the real thing.
"He hit! He actually did it."
"Ha, how dare you provoke this stupid ogre who can't tell the difference between the enemy and me, there is a good show to watch."
"Three accompany one to death, and one pays ten for serious injury."
"The poor Fire Dragon Circus has been badly run and owed a lot of debts. The former members hurt people again. No one can save them this time."
From the exclamations of others, as expected, Cavendish is considered a good strength in my eyes, but it is extremely amazing in the eyes of ordinary mercenaries, but no one has dared to use it, it is not that this ogre is easy to anger Insane, it is easy to be indistinguishable between the enemy and the enemy as soon as you enter the battle.
"I'm sorry, who told you to appear suddenly and accidentally."
I sneered and retracted the hand printed on Cavendish's stomach, but there were already well-wishers exclaiming.
"Boy, run, what reason can an ogre say? He only severely injured a northern Berserker half a month ago. Run quickly."
"How dare you punch Calvin..." The four-headed ogre's four eyes were bloodshot at first, and then began to turn white.
"It's completely crazy! Everyone stand shoulder to shoulder, or you will die here!"
Well, seeing the scene in front of me, there are already old mercenaries roaring and taking the lead in charging.
Complete madness is the ultimate ultimate move (racial talent) of life like orcs, berserkers, and ogres. It will give up all reason and exchange vitality for the most terrifying power. Maybe it will be lost if it is not treated in time after the end. The result of death, but before the end, is definitely a killing machine that fears life and death.
Cavendish's comprehensive combat power is at the golden rank. After being completely mad, it is at least legendary. The old mercenary's judgment is very correct. If he can't be killed in time, I am afraid that none of the people present will survive.
but…
In the next second, the two heads and four eyes of the drooling ogre were completely turned white, and then suddenly his head tilted, and he fell directly to the ground, and the huge body fell with dust.
"How is that possible? Not completely crazy, but knocked down? Punched by that young man?"
The strongest old mercenary who rushed over was shocked. He really couldn't believe it. He had partnered with Cavendish on a temporary basis. Have you seen the mad Cavendish shredding the war elephant directly, and now he was knocked down by a human
But after the dust cleared, the cheerful young man with a smile had long since disappeared.
At the same time, I, who accidentally punched with all my strength, had already retreated while taking advantage of the chaos.
The basic strength of an ordinary ogre is 16 points, and the Cavendish with warrior part-time job is at least 18 points, which is indeed scary compared to a human with 10 points, but compared with the 20 points that exceed the limit of mortals, it has a quality The difference, coupled with the accidental use of the power-generating technique recently practiced, is also the fundamental reason why it was hit by a punch.
As for why go away
"Damn it, I'm just planning to make a roll call, but this kind of appearance is too ugly. If you don't escape, the title of ogre knight will never escape."
I still understand the business of mercenaries. For veterans who go out, nicknames are often passed on farther than their real names, but these nicknames are often related to the first time they become famous, and it is difficult to change when they meet. If there is a dragon The reputation of killers is naturally good, but if you come to a "kobold professional killer", "goblin destroyer", "wild dog exorcist" and the like, you will not be able to hold your head for a lifetime.
And weird nicknames like "The Paladin who is more powerful than the ogre" and "The Paladin of the Ogre", depending on my luck, may definitely fall on me, so it's better to run as far as possible.
Of course, before I left, I successfully completed my goal. The wanted order in my arms was just used to pass the time before the end of the cleaning.
"B-level Wanted Order: Brotherhood of Blood Hands, want this group of damn pickpockets and killers, regardless of life or death, 100 gold coins for an ordinary member, at least 1,000 for a high-ranking member, and a reward of 50,000 yuan for the bandit leader, Blood Hand Jim. If it is completed before the succession ceremony , the bonus is doubled."
Although this bounty is much less than the A-level bounty just now, I really need information and training targets now, and as far as intelligence is well-informed, who can compare to the thieves' guild that is a part-time intelligence dealer.
Soon, from Earl Broken Egg, I learned some basic information about the Brotherhood of Blood Hands, a low-middle thieves' union with less than 200 members, so they made a big deal and robbed a certain country for His Majesty. The tributes are now wanted for them, it is said that the lair is in the dock area.
"Two hundred people? Let's finish it before dinner. Well, go back with the information, no one will say I'm lazy."
…
[Roland Lan, Strength 20, Min 19, Body 20, Wisdom 29, Intention 19, Charm 19, Innate Ability: War Angel Incarnation, Original Sin Demon God Incarnation, Sword of Order, Titan Torso, Level 22 Order Knight/Level 22 Chaos Witch king]
In fact, since my resurrection, I have been thinking about what kind of spiritual path I am taking while being surprised by this high starting point.
Ice magic and undead magic aside, as a senior paladin, I am quite confident in melee combat.
But for this balanced and powerful body, if you take the heavy armored two-handed swordsman route, then the agility of up to 19 points is obviously wasted, and if you take the light armored agile warrior route, light armored and fast swords, then the waste is beyond 20 points of mortal strength.
What surprised me the most was to find that the Order Knight, as a basic occupation, did not have a main attribute, and improving any attribute could improve the overall combat power, so I was even more hesitant.
"Do you want to take the double-blade route? Or learn how to hold a heavy weapon in each hand of a barbarian? That doesn't mean starting all over again."
Changing the fighting style is not an easy task, but a small accident made me finally make up my mind.
[Freeze]
This insidious additional ability can be attached to the blade, making the opponent unknowingly fall into a desperate situation in the duel. In my original expectation, using the dazzling holy light on the sword to cover the freezing air will be more concealed. and deadly.
But the reality is always not as expected. I have tried many times, but whether it is the Holy Light or the power of the law, as long as it encounters the freezing air, it is definitely the dissolution of one party. If it is not for their natural conflict, I still do The two sides are not merged.
Don't use holy light to concentrate on freezing air? A paladin who doesn't use the Holy Light is still a paladin, that's obviously a pure warrior, or a rookie second-rate warrior who can't concentrate on swordsmanship.
Of course, I focused my attention on the two swords, one with holy light and one with freezing air. In theory, the two special powers attack in turn, which can definitely make the opponent cry without tears.
Moreover, this can not only take advantage of the extremely high basic attributes that I have developed on average, but also this method of using two attributes at the same time is also very suitable for me, who has quite a variety of attributes. properties.
But when I proposed this plan, the knights, including Diana, were not optimistic about my idea of death at all.
"Double sword is not simply using two swords. It is completely different from holding a sword with both hands. The cycle between attacking and defending is extremely important. When the left sword is out, the right sword must move even if it does not attack, otherwise the balance of the body It will be broken. Distraction and dual use and three uses are the norm. At the same time, it has extremely high requirements for balance and agility. It is simply the patent of the elf ranger. You are human..."
This was Diana's refusal to speak, and she almost said, "The profession of the two-handed swordsman elf ranger, you can't learn it."
"Double swords? Or two two-handed swords? Haha, are you a three-meter-tall ogre or a two-and-a-half-meter highland barbarian, such a whimsy can be said, if you can do it, my mother tonight..."
Well, seeing the scene in front of him, Momo's remaining words have been swallowed back.
At that time, I had a two-handed sword in each of my left and right hands. I was very unfamiliar at first, but when I swung it, I became proficient. After that, it was like a veteran who has practiced for decades.
"I don't believe it anymore, it must be a false pretense. Come on, let's practice."
Well, Momo ended up in person, and in the shock of everyone, after I got through the initial rush, I put the battle into my own rhythm. The thick double swords are as dexterous as my own limbs. The collaboration brings a sense of brisk rhythm, and plays a high-speed waltz like a clear spring and flowing water.
And Momo, who was already weak in strength, only lasted for less than thirty seconds this time, and was defeated with numb hands.
"It's a miracle!"
The legendary Paladin Diana looked at me in disbelief at first, but then smiled and nodded, as if it was only natural.
Actually, I cheated without a doubt.
[Double-skilled hands: Make your left and right hands as dexterous, learning requirements: Agility 15+—System evaluation: There is really no difference between left and right hands, please don’t use this skill to do boring things]
Even though I was in the elf kingdom travel period, I was bored and practiced double-handedness, and this choice appeared in the gray skill box, but because this is the core professional ability of a dual-blade ranger, even if the basic attributes are up to standard, I still pay tripled the skill points.
[Giant Armor: With amazing power, you can use a two-handed weapon like a one-handed sword, but the non-dominant hand will greatly reduce the accuracy and damage. Learning requirements: Strength 18+—System evaluation: Although giants are a general talent for melee combat, 18 points of strength can only be learned, to play well, at least 20 points of strength, if it is not the giant race, basically only legendary warriors It was enough, but by that time, the fighting style had already been finalized, how could it be transformed to play dual-wielding heavy soldiers, so this is also called the most tasteless skill.]
With the investment of four skill points, countless combat skills and experiences are brought into the mind and remembered by the body, which saves a lot of training time. Under the unbelievable eyes of everyone, I directly mastered the basic use of the two-handed sword. Skill.
Of course, this is just the beginning, it just provides the possibility to try this fighting style, but if you want to become a master of the two-handed sword like in the past, you still need countless hours of polishing and actual combat training, and the opponent in front of you is exactly the same. Competent sparring.
"what."
The two-handed sword in his right hand was full of golden light, lighting up the dark basement, and the next moment, the thief lurking in the shadows was shot away.
Well, it's clap, not chopping. The two-handed epee is a typical example of convincing people with force. It can slash Huashan with all its strength, and naturally it can also bully people's clap, smash, and chop with its weight and huge blade.
But judging from the opponent who flew out sideways and fell into the wooden box, there was no movement. For a weak thief, there was no difference between slapping and chopping.
"It's a pity, you are unlucky."
He shook his head and continued forward. He had just stepped into the next room. After the explosion, the smoke lifted up, and the thieves and assassins who followed in the front were killed from the trap.
Well, next, judging from the green dagger, showing mercy would be tantamount to courting death, so, with all my strength, it became a one-sided crushing battle.
At the beginning of the battle, I understood why Momo, who was in the silver rank, was defeated so easily. I just changed to a fighting style that fully utilized the advantages of basic attributes, but the combat power was directly multiplied.
It is still the king's sword that is fast, accurate, and ruthless. It does not go sideways or play tricks. One sword is faster than the other, and the sword is heavier than the other. It convinces people with strength and speed.
And for agile assassins, it's terrible.
The attack range of the two-handed sword is already large, and the basement is quite narrow. Once the two two-handed swords are swung, the space to avoid is even smaller.
And after the agility that the assassins were proud of was suppressed, it was basically me who shot first, and they had to carry at least one round of my epee at close range.
The epee, which was barely able to shine with holy light just now, was shaken and unstable, but the next left-hand sword was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and it just didn't send it.
The strongest silver-level shadow assassin only blocked three swords, and the effect of freezing air did not even occur, so he was directly split in half by the sword in his right hand.
In just over ten seconds, the thieves lost seven or eight companions.
And when the strongest leader died in a meaningless battle, the thieves finally determined that the invincible opponent was in front of them, and then they fled without any doubts.
I didn't chase either, because the Banshee Queen was already whining in my ear.
"If you don't hurry, the guy will run away, and my clone will be taken away. It's not easy for me to split a child now, don't waste it."
She did have a reason to complain, and it was really thanks to her that she was able to find it all the way this time.
How to find the hidden thieves guild? I just disguised myself as a fat sheep and let a pickpocket from the Brotherhood of the Blood stole my purse, which contained a very, very valuable Tear Gem.
Then, as in the information, the Brotherhood has a very strict control over the lower-level personnel, and soon, even if there is some weird mucus around the gem, the Tearstone will be transferred to the upper-level of the Brotherhood of Blood Hands, and then I will follow the greed. The guidance of the clone followed all the way.
Heloise's complaint is still in her ears, and if you don't hurry up this time, it will be in vain. If the bandit leader runs away, the bounty and tribute will be gone, and the historical information of the primary target thief organization will naturally be gone.
Since I have reached the location but can't see the way, there must be a secret passage in the basement, so I stepped up the search, but soon, I found that I did not add points to the search and the organization, and I clearly felt that the greedy child was there. Below, but life and death can not find the organ.
"Forget it, technology flow is really not my thing, we are still used to violent smashing of the door. The sword of order! Open a hole for me!"
I had long planned to find a chance to try this innate skill, but before I could verify the damage caused, a familiar voice rang in my ears.
"Ding, in your absence, you have become a hotly debated word among mercenaries. Congratulations to the host for winning the first honorary title after being born. Well, it matches your style of smashing the door very well. Okay, If you don't lose your appetite, that title is very powerful - 'One Punch to Overcome Demons', congratulations, it's not the ogre knight you've been worried about. What? This title is like a warrior monk? Well, one punch slays the ogre, Still expecting you to be treated as a paladin? Double swords? Now you are regarded as a monk disguised as a paladin, Lord Vanquish with a punch."
