Chapter 114: Being an assassin in Egypt, a demon hunter in another world, a hacker in Chicago, and waiting to be a Monkey King in Journey to the West
With the escort of Margaret, Mo Cheng and Wendisa, although small units of the Mad Legion occasionally discovered this team, and no one knew what logic they followed to launch an attack on a group of people.
But for this group of people, as long as they don’t encounter the main force of the Mad Legion, small troops can be easily dealt with by the strength of Margaret and Windissa.
Three days later, Mo Cheng slowly opened his eyes. Four days had passed since he obtained [Time Lock], and he finally figured out this ability.
Although Yi Mocheng's current strength and insight cannot fully understand how this power works, he is now able to know whether his next attack will be triggered.
Mo Cheng knew that it would be unlikely for him to turn this probabilistic skill into an active or passive skill that he could control freely for quite some time, but currently knowing whether the next attack would trigger this event had greatly enhanced himself.
When a person knows whether his next attack will be a critical hit, he has one more way, a way that may directly smash the opponent.
Just as he sorted out the [time lock], Mo Cheng [saw] it.
Under your feet, around you, in the sky, on the earth, and even in the entire world, there are endless threads that constantly intersect and separate, while giving rise to endless choices pointing to a shore too far to be seen.
Mo Cheng understood a little bit. Just like how he strengthened his [Dragon Bloodline], Slerik's blood strengthened him and gave him the power to survive in this world.
This time, the remaining power after the strengthening of [Time Lock] and the power of the super-dimensional vision gave him a chance to choose.
In this historical fragment outside of normal time, the power of the super-dimensional vision was expressed in an indescribable way, and it required Mo Cheng to make a choice.
What to choose?
I don’t know, Mo Cheng could only feel the remnant of this power and let him choose.
So, which one should you choose?
He also didn't know, but at this moment, Mo Cheng believed in his feelings, the feelings that had never deceived him.
Guided by his feelings, Mo Cheng [chose].
There were no strange visions or anything weird, but Mo Cheng could feel that something had changed.
It was as if something was watching him, as if something was weighing heavily on his heart, and the hairs on his body stood up.
There are enemies, and they are powerful enemies!
But the feeling came and went quickly, as if it was some kind of illusion. However, Mo Cheng knew very well that this was not an illusion, but a warning from his own feelings.
Tell him something is targeting him and he is about to face a crisis.
Putting the remaining two skill points into the skill pool, Mo Cheng began to extract skills.
[Sticky Snot]: Throws a ball of sticky snot at the enemy, which will wrap around the enemy and corrode the enemy's armor.
(Cover an enemy unit with snot, reducing its movement speed and armor. Multiple casts will stack the effect, and the duration is based on the last cast.)
[Seventy-two Transformations]: An ancient magic spell used to avoid disasters. The monkey who entered the Temple of the Gods spread the fame of this spell throughout the world.
(The Monkey King uses his surroundings as a disguise, changing his appearance to deceive his opponents. He loses his disguise when he is damaged, attacks, or uses any item. He is immune to damage for 0.2 seconds. He always becomes a courier when near a courier.)
【Suicide Attack】: What is this button for?
(The Engineer sacrifices himself for the greater good, causing huge area damage. The closer you are to the Engineer, the higher the damage you take. Using this skill will be considered suicide, and the enemy heroes will not gain money or experience. The Engineer can gain experience points corresponding to the enemy heroes killed by the suicide attack. The suicide attack will destroy trees.)
In the first column of skills, Mo Cheng chose Seventy-Two Transformations without a second thought. He used the process of elimination. [Suicide Attack] was definitely going to be banned without a second thought. Mo Cheng didn't have any skills for resurrection, so choosing this skill was a waste because it could only be used once.
[Sticky Snot] can slow down the enemy and reduce their armor, but the name and skill description made him give up this very practical skill.
This skill is very useful when playing games, but it is definitely a style destroyer when you use it to fight enemies after strengthening yourself. When you use snot, people will look at you with something else in their eyes.
Whether your skills are useful or not is one thing, but your own image is definitely another.
Once [Sticky Snot] was used, Mo Cheng knew with his toes that no one would be able to get close to him within three meters, and he would have to endure other people's strange looks.
After decisively choosing [Seventy-two Transformations], Mo Cheng looked at the skills in the second column.
[Golden Cudgel Technique]: Grants stick-type weapons the features of "follow your will" and "change size", emitting power while showing fighting spirit.
(The Monkey King's attacks awaken the power of the Golden Cudgel. After attacking the same hero four times in a row, the Monkey King's next four attacks are strengthened, gaining attack power bonus and lifesucking effect.)
[Soul Connection]: Make a contract with powerful and friendly creatures and fight side by side.
(Connects the Druid and the Bear Spirit. Both parties share a certain percentage of armor, increasing their attack speed, and the damage caused by the Bear Spirit can heal the Druid.)
[Blood Activation Technique]: Stimulates the individual 's vitality, allowing their injuries to heal quickly.
(Inspires the recovery of friendly units and heals the target based on its basic attributes. If the target's health is below 40%, the recovery rate is increased. Lasts for 16 seconds.)
After reading this list of skills, Mo Cheng was surprised and said, "Blood Activation Technique? A skill that matches the Berserker's Blood in the Magic-Free Version?"
Mo Cheng was still a little confused when he saw [Suicide Attack], but after seeing [Blood Activation Technique], he finally confirmed that this skill pool not only includes the skills of the current version.
Mo Cheng had always believed that the skills in the system's skill pool were all based on the latest versions. When he suddenly saw the skills that had been deleted, he discovered something.
That is, this skill pool may be deeper than he thought.
Skills that have been deleted and abandoned, as well as skills that have been significantly revised, may all appear in it.
"In other words, the bad news is that the probability of drawing the same skill is far less than one percent, but the good news is that I might draw the skill [Go Back to the Past], which will make me invincible if I'm lucky."
(Back to the past: have a chance to dodge physical and magical damage, and be lucky enough to use the skills of the other team to still have full health.)
Although it was good news, Mo Cheng didn't know how much the probability of drawing had been reduced, so he didn't believe that his luck would allow him to draw the skill he wanted.
[Blood Vitality] is ruled out first. His own [Blood of the Berserker] is a revised version mixed with the recovery function of Blood Vitality. Choosing this is not very useful for himself, and it is not as useful as [Baptism] which has reached level 2 when used on teammates.
Also excluded is [Soul Connection], which requires a contract with a powerful creature.
Mo Cheng considered his eloquence and other strengths and weaknesses , and came to the conclusion that instead of trying to sign an equal contract with a powerful creature, it would be simpler and quicker to force it to sign a slave contract after becoming powerful.
"Since I've already chosen the [Seventy-two Transformations], it would be unreasonable not to choose the [Golden Cudgel Technique]. Who didn't dream of becoming the Monkey King when they were little?"
Muttering to himself, Mo Cheng chose the [Golden Cudgel Technique] without any hesitation.
