Chapter 322: The Legendary Breed Earth Serpent
Chapter 322: The Legendary Breed Earth Serpent
Without hesitation, Ren slightly regretfully chose "No."
At that moment, the system prompt sounded again: 【Since the host chose 'No', the residual evil flame mark after tempering will be transformed into a mental attribute!】
【Congratulations! Your mental attribute has received a moderate increase!】
"Huh?"
"A moderate increase?"
Suddenly, Ren felt a cool stream of air in his mind, and his entire brain became exceptionally clear.
This surprised Ren, and he took a look at his attribute panel: Constitution: 47
Strength: 56 (2 points of strength added in combat)
Agility: 47
Mental: 59
Will (Hidden Attribute): 10
"Mental power increased by 4 points, so a moderate increase is more than 3 points?" Ren muttered to himself.
Although she was missing half of her head, her slender remains, the familiar black cloak, and the faint mark of a serpent on half of her face, caused Edmundo's expression to change drastically. "Iksera?"
This novel's latest chapter is available at 6>@/9 Book Bar{First; Release,>Please go to six! Nine: Book< Bar{Go: Look!
When Ren arrived at the training room, he was surprised to find that someone was already there.
"Huff~Huff~"
Moreover, the city of Minter was even more special, situated on a mountain with a sturdy rock body. Even with the Legendary Breed Earth Serpent's burrowing ability, it would be extremely difficult to dig through a tunnel.
"Hmm? Interesting, does this mean that the lance and Dragon Knight are connected?"
Edmundo nodded, knowing that Timshi was Iksera's subordinate.
Immediately, Ren grabbed his arm armor and leaped out of the window.
However, when he saw the remaining 20 golden skill points on the system panel, Ren stopped as soon as he opened the door.
"Ren, be careful. I'm about to use my bloodline talent!" Klaj said as she pushed off the ground, reminding him.
"That's not right. Even without a signal, Iksera should have sensed the commotion caused by the Legendary Breed Earth Serpent." Edmundo frowned slightly, feeling a sense of foreboding.
It seemed to be a wind-based speed boost? "One of my bloodline abilities is speed enhancement!"
"Hehe, let's give it a try!" Ren smiled.
As he spoke, a cyan whirlwind suddenly appeared around her, and as she took another long stride, her speed increased dramatically, leaving several afterimages in place as she executed a circular slash towards the wooden dummy.
Next, they would head to Miest County Town to completely destroy the Habus Count's family, thus ending this chapter.
"Boom!"
Even though it was only a part of its body, it exceeded the height of the villa, and the massive shadow cast by the moonlight almost covered half of the building.
【Congratulations, your Will (Hidden Attribute) has increased!】
A black-cloaked corpse with half its head missing was thrown in front of the Earth Serpent, rolling a few times before coming to a stop.
"Ding ding dang!"
As he touched the ground, intending to stand up, he felt the entire villa trembling slightly. This level of vibration might be ignored by ordinary people, but Ren immediately understood its significance.
"Obviously, the decisive blow to seal the victory still came from the top-tier legendary profession 'Warhammer Mage's' killer move, 'Soul Fragmentation Impact.'"
"Should I choose to improve the lance, the greatsword, or the throwing spear, etc.?" Ren's eyes flashed with determination.
Suddenly, Ren, who was lying on the bed resting, abruptly opened his eyes. He had just felt a heart palpitation, and at the same time, his 'Danger Perception' also gave him a warning.
"Hmm, it's probably around two in the morning." The handsome man thought for a moment and said.
"So fast!" Ren was slightly startled, but his movements remained calm.
"After all, what if the enemy is alone?"
"Of course, but Ren, are you going to fight with a staff?" Klaj looked at the weapon in Ren's hand and couldn't help but laugh.
"Contact Iksera and tell her that we will arrive beneath the Habsburg Castle in the county town in about four hours."
As for Iksera's message about finding someone named Ren in Minter, Edmundo had no interest in it.
【Your skill 'Rockydoro's Guardian Staff' has improved. Experience +3】
"Let's improve Shadow Step to the ultimate technique first!"
"It seems that there is a difference between Extraordinary Combat Skills and Extraordinary Insights. After reaching the ultimate technique, the hammer technique can still be improved, but Brack's Assassination Dance cannot."
The icon's image changed from a knight riding a warhorse to a knight riding a dragon, and the lance became longer, exceeding four meters.
Thinking about it, Ren no longer had the desire to rest.
If they were to launch a frontal assault, what if the Legendary Breed Earth Serpent died in battle? That would be a tragic outcome.
"Congratulations, Klaj, it seems you've awakened your bloodline!"
"Want to practice a bit?" Ren smiled and raised the staff in his hand.
"There are only three people here, which is quite different from the seven or eight people Battista mentioned."
So, Ren spent 2 golden skill points to improve Brack's Assassination Dance, and after consuming 4 more golden skill points to break through, the system prompt sounded: 【Congratulations, you have understood the ultimate technique of Brack's Assassination Dance: Shadow Step!】
This mission to subjugate the Earth Serpent went extremely smoothly, naturally putting him in a great mood.
"Did the others escape?"
"My Lord, two in the morning is when people are most tired. Launching an attack at this time can be considered the best timing." A black-robed man flattered.
Ren planned to go to the training room on the first floor to practice the last Extraordinary Combat Skill, 'Rockydoro's Guardian Staff', making the most of every minute to fulfill the final condition for his class change.
Ren returned to the bedroom he had arranged earlier.
Inside the icon, a slender man with a dagger in hand, who was now nine people, meaning that in addition to the real person, the number of phantoms had increased from six to eight.
【Your skill Rockydoro's Guardian Staff has improved, experience +3】
"Ren, compared to your strength, there's still a considerable gap." Klaj's beautiful eyes fixed on Ren as she spoke earnestly.
She knew she had to awaken her bloodline as soon as possible! For some time now, she had felt a subtle disturbance in her bloodline, and this feeling became even stronger after this battle.
As the genius female knight of Miest, she had been completely useless in the fight today, unable to help Ren at all.
"Enlightenment?"
"As you wish, Lord Edmundo." A black-robed man respectfully acknowledged the order and slowly retreated, seemingly making a connection.
Klaj's lithe and curvaceous figure wielded a gleaming greatsword, slashing out silver arcs. Who else could it be but Klaj?
"It's done. And half an hour before we arrived, we also sent a message to Timshi." A subordinate respectfully replied.
Deep down, he didn't approve of this plan.
Above the Earth Serpent's head, a row of black-robed mages appeared, led by Lord Edmundo.
"Thank you!" Icela still felt a bit awkward seeing Ren, but the joy of her bloodline awakening dissipated this uneasiness.
"Clap, clap!" Ren clapped his hands, smiling as he walked over.
"My father has been sent to the Imperial Capital for treatment. One of his friends is a master in the Royal Alchemist Guild, quite skilled in medicinal treatment. A letter came a few days ago saying he's doing much better."
The greatsword and Ren's staff clashed repeatedly!
Klaj's heaving chest rose and fell, her fair face flushing, her head steaming, and the beads of sweat on her face reflected a faint crystal light, exuding a spirited aura.
"Thank you, Ren. If you hadn't arrived in time, the Habsburg family would have suffered heavy casualties."
Due to the overly high attribute requirements of the Basic Annihilation Field, it could only be put on hold for now; otherwise, it would have been the first choice.
"This... Klaj, with your strength, even with the awakened bloodline talent, you'd still struggle against experienced opponents. I just took advantage of the Intermediate Great Technique." Ren couldn't help but feel relieved.
Suddenly, as Klaj's greatsword slashed down, a dazzling silver arc flashed by!
At the same time, a powerful training memory of 'Armor Piercing Strike' flooded into Ren's mind! After digesting and absorbing all the memories, Ren looked at the new icon of 'Armor Piercing Strike' on the Weapon Master (Legendary) panel.
This made Ren feel a sense of urgency!
The guards, upon seeing such a massive creature, naturally dared not approach. However, as this wasn't the first time they had seen a Legendary Earth Serpent, the guards, after a brief commotion, cautiously kept their distance.
"The range of the phantoms has increased, from ten meters in the Advanced stage to fifteen meters now! And the number of phantoms has increased by two."
"Bang!"
"Don't forget, I'm your Guardian Knight." Ren waved his hand.
But as time passed, Klaj gradually calmed her thoughts, almost fully unleashing the Arcadian Swordsmanship!
He planned to show a bit more initiative during the upcoming ambush, as a way to repay Lady Iksera. — At two in the morning, the air was cold and crisp.
Klaj's entire body froze in that posture.
The second was to destroy the Miest Governor, Baron Habus' family, which, in his eyes, was sufficient revenge for the deaths of Cannon and Holdan.
"After all, he's a third-rank Crystal Mage. Even if we can't beat him, we can still escape."
Since the Weapon Master (Legendary) class level had just been upgraded, there was no increase this time.
Ren spent 6 Golden Skill Points, and the system prompt sounded: 【Congratulations, you have understood the Ultimate Technique of Longiro's Lance: Armor Piercing Strike!】
Ren nodded, satisfied with the impact the Earth Serpent's appearance had on the audience.
As Klaj's words fell, two streams of cyan aura swirled around her elastic, well-endowed figure.
With Klaj's sparring, combined with her talent 'Advanced Extraordinary Insight', the system almost constantly prompted an experience increase of three every few seconds. In just one minute, the experience bar for Rockydoro's Guardian Staff lv1 was already half-filled!
In contrast, Ren's smile grew even brighter. In just this short minute of sparring, the system prompts flooded the screen: 【You have gained insight into Rockydoro's Guardian Staff!】
"However, after reaching the Ultimate Technique, the effect is further enhanced."
Ren, who was resting in the room, began to ponder the battle with Icela, the Legendary Serpent Sect Disciple.
Apparently, the movements of the Legendary Soil Serpent had not only startled everyone in the Habsburg Castle, but even those outside the castle came out to check the commotion.
"So many Golden Skill Points, I might as well raise them first."
"The battle with the Blood Curse Naga High Priestess Sereniss also relied on 'Soul Fragmentation Impact' to severely injure her opponent from the start."
Because Flame Breath had already reached level 16, surpassing the requirement of level 16 for 'Shadow Step' to be enhanced to the Ultimate Technique.
Since Klaj had just awakened and was still too tired for her body, the two left the training room after a while.
【Congratulations! Your Will (Hidden Attribute) has reached 10 points, and the Residual Evil Flame Mark has been completely eliminated!】
"This way." Ren looked at the floor of the bedroom.
Ren nodded, feeling quite delighted!
However, the castle and its surroundings were filled with noisy screams.
After a few seconds.
Icela, together with the Demon of the Younger Brother, ran towards Minter without thinking.
In the underground of Miest.
At this moment, Ren's 'Rockyd's Guardian Staff' had reached level 5. - At the same time.
Ren was about to step forward but suddenly noticed something unusual about Klaj, as if a unique energy was constantly enhancing within her.
"Good, let's see your bloodline ability." Ren nodded, feeling curious.
One reason was that the defenses deployed by the Dragon Empire in the capital and county towns were not on the same level.
"Hmm? Is there more?"
The dense sounds of combat, which had become a continuous stream, surprised Klaj. Even when she used her bloodline talent, she still couldn't gain any advantage over Ren, who was holding a short staff! "This is too overpowered!"
"I believe that as an Epic Class, I'll have a stronger trump card!"
Because if there were not enough enemies in future battles to gather ten souls, it would mean losing this trump card.
"By the way, how is Baron Habus doing? Is he feeling better?" Ren suddenly thought of something.
"Also, the best effect is to use it to break through the Magical Defense of Wizards."
But soon, as if remembering something, she asked in confusion, "Huh? Where's Icela?"
As Klaj's aura grew stronger, she suddenly looked up and shouted! "Ahhh!"
At this moment, Klaj discovered that Ren had arrived at the training room without her noticing.
Taking advantage of Klaj's brief daze, Ren manifested five different shadow clones, and his staff attacked Klaj! As Ren's staff lightly touched Klaj's shoulder, it immediately moved away and stopped.
"Bloodline Awakening?" Ren watched this scene in surprise, thinking to himself.
A huge serpent-like creature was rapidly burrowing, and behind it was a group of Black Cloaked Men led by a middle-aged man.
"By the way, Ren, why did you come to Miest this time? Do you have a mission?" Klaj asked curiously.
Perhaps because of the recent incident where her buttocks were exposed, Klaj still felt a bit embarrassed when seeing Ren, so she played with her hair and showed a hint of shyness.
At this moment, Ren suddenly thought of a problem, and he looked around.
Ren's new Extraordinary Combat Skill 'Rockyd's Guardian Staff' continuously improved, reaching level 4 in less than forty minutes.
"Really?"
"Not bad! Finally, the Evil Flame Mark has been eliminated, resolving a hidden danger, and the residual energy has been absorbed to enhance the Mental Attribute, which is an unexpected joy!"
This astonishing speed delighted Ren!
In two consecutive battles against Legendary opponents, if not for the top-tier Legendary Class of Warhammer Mage, Ren might not have been able to win.
Immediately after, Klaj's speed increased by at least three-tenths, and she pulled out a long wave of air from the ground towards Ren!
"By the way, have you heard about the incident in the capital?"
After a brief chat, Klaj went to handle the aftermath of the evening's battle.
"This is good news."
He used the Ultimate Technique 'Shadow Step', instantly leaving multiple afterimages, and he fought with Klaj in a fast-paced battle.
"Klaj, there's a matter that might involve more than three people from the Serpent Sect, so remember to remind the guards not to be lax." Ren said seriously.
"Of course!"
"Hmm, this time, there's a mission in the Fishing Port Town. So, I came over." Ren explained the situation to Klaj.
"It can be paired with various mounts and complement Shadow Step, further enhancing attack power."
"
The flawless version is on 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar first release of this novel.
Ren held his chin in one hand and crossed his arms, pacing back and forth in the room.
Only a Legendary Soil Snake could possess such formidable power.
Ren saw this pattern and couldn't help but smile.
"Hmm, with this Legendary Soil Snake, our activities in several provinces of the Empire will be connected, and the significance is immense," Edmundo also smiled and nodded.
In the garden, a giant creature with a diameter of over three meters suddenly emerged from the ground. Its grotesque flower-like mouthparts spewed out various-sized pebbles, soil, and dust, sending them flying dozens of meters high! Immediately after, a colossal serpentine creature emerged from the ground.
The knight, riding a dragon in a high-speed dive, wielded his lance with incredible speed, creating a whirlwind that swept towards the ground.
Klaj felt her bloodline awakening, likely to happen within the next day or two.
As he entered the villa, Klaj had just changed into her pants and walked down.
"Are you looking for her?"
After emerging, the creature didn't choose to dive back underground but instead stood upright, revealing part of its body.
At first, Klaj still held the thought, 'Ren has really underestimated her.'
"It seems I need to quickly figure out a way to change jobs to 'Thousand Blade King,' an epic-class profession!"
At the same time, on the Weapon Master (Legendary) panel, the icon for 'Shadow Step' also underwent a minor change.
"If it weren't for this move, it would've been extremely difficult to achieve victory just now. Perhaps, I can rely on skill points to recover and continuously use ultimate techniques, but whether I can defeat the opponent is another matter."
Adding his remaining points to the current total, he had 4 attribute points left, 2 skill points, and 20 golden skill points.
"Did you guys just signal?" Edmundo asked his subordinates.
In the training room, Ren and Klaj quickly engaged in a spar.
From the text below, it was confirmed: Shadow Step (Ultimate Technique) Effect: Using a unique step that combines leg strength and the Force, leaving eight additional shadows within a 15-meter radius to confuse enemies.
"It's not like it's sudden, but rather..."
"Yes, Lord, the power of the Legendary Soil Snake is beyond imagination. No wonder the Pope values it so highly that he personally came here!" Another black-robed subordinate, admiring the quickly burrowing Soil Snake, exclaimed.
So, after arranging some security matters, she came to the training room.
Was that the bluish air current just now?
"Sigh! I thought I could narrow the gap with you, but I didn't expect..." Klaj sighed.
"Okay, I'll let her know." Hearing Ren's words, Klaj's shy expression turned back into a spirited and refreshing look.
"Crack!" The sturdy wooden dummy was cut in half at the waist.
"That's not right, when the opponent attacked from both sides just now, there were only two people, which means there should be a total of three people here." Ren shook his head.
"Shadow Step is very useful, and the speed increase makes it excellent for offense, evasion, and even fleeing."
(Note: This ultimate technique has already been upgraded to the ultimate level and cannot be upgraded further.) "It's been upgraded to the ultimate level?" Ren looked at the final note and fell silent.
Klaj still felt quite defeated from today's battle.
He continued flipping through the pages, checking the previous battle records: [Congratulations! You defeated a powerful enemy and obtained 9 Golden Skill Points!]
"Hmm?"
"The lance is still the most suitable!"
"There's only one answer! The opponent has another team, and most likely, their goal is to find the Legendary Soil Snake." Ren's eyes lit up.
"Ding ding ding!"
"I used 6 of the 20 Golden Skill Points, leaving 14 points. With 8 points, I can upgrade the Basic Annihilation Field, and with the remaining 6 points, I can upgrade another Extraordinary Combat Skill to the ultimate technique level."
After some thought, Ren quickly walked towards the training room, feeling he should inform Klaj.
Apparently, Ren's encouragement was quite effective, as Klaj repeatedly sparred with him!
"Who are you? You actually killed Icela!" Edmundo's words were filled with shock, his expression revealing his astonishment! He had considered the worst-case scenario, but the current situation still exceeded his expectations.
How could this be? Icela's strength was on par with his, and the opponent's ability to kill Icela implied that they also had the capability to defeat him. The group of black-robed individuals behind Edmundo burst into a commotion.
Evidently, the scene before them had left a profound impact! "It's Icela!"
"Yes! She's been killed!"
It's important to know that the one who died wasn't just an ordinary soldier but a Legendary powerhouse! Whether in the Empire or the various churches, they were all top-tier experts!
The group of black-robed individuals stared with widened eyes, their hands clenched into fists, and their hearts filled with inexplicable shock.
