Chapter 112
After that, Mo Cheng did not continue to invest skill points because he had a feeling, a strong feeling.
I don't know if this is a hint from the super-dimensional world after strengthening [Time Lock], or if it comes from my own intuition.
They were telling Mo Cheng that if he could sort out the time lock before the next draw, there would be a surprise waiting for him.
【surprise】?
The vague feeling made Mo Cheng unable to know the specific meaning of "surprise", but he was willing to believe that his feelings would not deceive him.
Three days would be enough for him to sort out the power of [Time Lock].
During the day, Mo Cheng, who had not slept all night due to the effect of [Dark Night Hunting], rubbed his eyes. The feeling of fatigue that came over him made him feel as if [the big glowing guy above his head disliked him].
At the same time, I was thinking about whether there were corresponding skills in the skill pool that could be enhanced during the day. If so, I would fast, burn incense and bathe for three days after returning, praying to be able to draw that skill.
…
He leaned sideways and slightly tilted his head to avoid the spear that was stabbing at his head. His left hand clamped it like a pair of steel pliers, and his right hand held down the horse's head that was about to stretch out its mouth to bite him.
This cavalryman who charged towards the team alone appeared from nowhere, but Mo Cheng happened to be the closest to him and subconsciously stopped him.
"Tsk, it's quite powerful."
His body blocked all the kinetic energy of the cavalry's charge. Although Mo Cheng's individual mass was affected by the impact of the cavalry's charge, leaving two straight and deep marks on the ground, he stopped a cavalryman who was charging. This was just the beginning. He used his waist to exert force, and the force went along the spine to the arm and finally to the fist. The strong force blew up the horse's head.
And in the exploding flesh and blood, a sword beam flashed, and the sword blade formed by the highly condensed holy light cut the cavalryman in half from bottom to top.
Under the [purification] of the holy light, the horse and the man turned into a substance like mud and sand and scattered all over the ground.
After checking if there were any remnants on the cavalry and trying to sense the surroundings and not sensing any surveillance, Mo Cheng returned to the team.
Ignoring the group of people who looked like they were beating a cat to the ground after seeing a mouse, Mo Cheng coughed twice and reminded them, "It's time to leave, otherwise we won't be able to leave when their main force arrives."
At this time, Wendisa seemed to have just woken up from a dream and arranged the team to set off. Margaret led the team in the front, Wendisa was in the middle of the team to provide support at any time, and Mo Cheng, who had demonstrated his strength in an emergency, was arranged to the end to ensure that he did not fall behind.
Although it stands to reason that Mo Cheng, as a healer, should be protected in the middle, Mo Cheng declined this unnecessary protection and said that Windissa was more suitable to be in the center to coordinate the overall situation . Margaret, who has experience in leading a team, would naturally go to the front to lead people in the direction of progress and make various arrangements.
"What happened just now?!" Wendisa excitedly pulled Mo Cheng to ask about what he had just seen, "Didn't they say that the clergy of the Church of Light have basically no combat power? Just now, they blocked the cavalry charge, and this..."
After imitating Mo Cheng's last move of using holy light to condense into a sword, Wendisa asked, "Is this a new profession developed by the Church of Light? Or are you actually an ascetic monk, just wearing the clothes of a clergyman?"
Ascetics are a profession of faith. They swear to dedicate everything to faith, not to hold money, not to eat delicacies, not to enjoy pleasure, not to marry, and not to accept titles and fiefs. They drink water, wear coarse linen clothes, read church books, have no entertainment activities, and even their weapons are just a wooden stick picked up at random.
For the ascetics, years of training have made their wills strong enough to distort reality. With such a strong will, any damage from magic will be greatly reduced, or even directly denied. The ascetics' bodies have been tempered by thousands of hammers, and their physical strength seems to never run out. Even if they step on sharp objects barefoot, their skin cannot be pierced.
There was a monthly thread among players asking, "When a monk who has made all the vows fights against an ascetic who has dedicated everything, who will win?"
Two players spent a lot of time training the monk and ascetic characters respectively, and then agreed to fight in a place. In the end, the result was that neither of them could do anything to the other.
According to the descriptions of the players who watched the battle, the scene was like two adamantium golems fighting each other. Both of them were the type whose defenses far exceeded their own attacks, and there was almost no possibility of exhausting their physical strength, which made this battle become the most boring blacksmith-style battle. You hit me, I hit you, and we hammered each other's bodies, making a ping-pong sound like blacksmithing.
"I'm not an ascetic. I, um..." Mo Cheng thought for a moment and explained with a smile, "I'm just a little better at doing things."
"But Ms. Wendisa, is it okay for you to run to the back?"
Wendisa waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm always paying attention. It will take the same time for me to arrive at any corner of the team."
Mo Cheng did not refute. It was just as Wendisa said. She was very fast. Just now, enemies appeared in three directions of the team. Mo Cheng resisted the cavalry, while Wendisa split the enemy in two and cut off the heads of enemies in different directions.
Windissa's speed is even faster than Naraka whom she met at the beginning. Her sword skills are almost like splitting herself in two places at the same time. No wonder the one-eyed commander only dared to surround her instead of launching a general attack . Otherwise, it would be hard to say how many of the thousands of crazy legion soldiers could survive.
"Just now, I saw that you directly blocked the cavalry charge. You should be at the stage of organ transcendence, right?"
It is impossible for a normal person's body to block a cavalry charge head-on with their physical body without any hindrance.
Mo Cheng nodded and admitted, "Well, it's about this stage."
"Then you have to choose carefully. The system formed by the extraordinary organs is very important for your future path. I won't say more. I guess it's all in the academy's textbooks. But you really have to choose carefully. This is related to the difficulty of your promotion to the [Hero] level."
After the fourth stage has transcended a single organ, the body has the foundation to use the [Heart Light Body] and [Spellcasting Brand]. After the fifth stage has developed the [Heart Light Body] and [Spellcasting Brand], it will in turn continuously strengthen various organs in the body, thereby transcending them and allowing each extraordinary organ to form an additional life system.
The sixth stage is to use the [heart-light body] to feed back to the organs in the body, making them extraordinary, thus forming a new life system and greatly enhancing the ability to survive.
For combat professionals, the seventh stage is the complementary enhancement of the [heart-light body] and additional life systems in the body, thereby sublimating life. At the same time, the heart-light body will be completely perfected and become the strongest means of the seventh stage.
The seventh-level heart-light body will sublimate together with life. After that, the heart-light body is no longer a ball of light surrounding itself like a shield, but something different for each person.
Maybe it's some strange skill, maybe it's strengthened by fusion with the weapon in hand, or it may become a permanent state.
