The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 038 Mithril Heart Armor
…
Cloak of Shadows (2nd-level feat): You can use this feat to become invisible when you are in dim light or darkness. Your invisibility lasts until you attack, cast a spell, or enter an area of bright light.
"Note: When you activate Shadow Cloak, there will be a hysteresis state that lasts for 0.3 seconds. If the hysteresis state is interrupted, the activation will fail."
…
Roger carefully reviewed the instructions for the Shadow Cloak.
This feat is extremely powerful.
Especially in a dim environment like a dungeon, it can be used as a half-strong invisibility or escape spell.
Don’t think that Koi’s shadow cloak was easily broken by Roger just now.
That was because the two sides were too close and Roger had been planning this for a long time.
If she had just kept a little more distance, the outcome might have been different.
The acquisition of the "Shadow Cloak" brought some comfort to Roger, who was forced to level up twice.
At least these two levels of experience are not wasted.
He put the Red Moon away carefully.
He began to touch the body of the drow girl happily.
…
In fact, Roger had doubts since the first time he saw Coy.
Subsequent contacts made him increasingly wary.
As he said when he was stalling for time, this all happened at the right time.
Roger knew it.
When a series of coincidences happen together, it is very likely that they were arranged by someone.
In fact, in his eyes, Koi's biggest flaw is that he has no "thinking ability"!
Just ask a drow who walks alone in the dungeon all year round -
How could he let down his guard so quickly and actively invite a stranger to become his partner?
When he knew that he was cursed and could sense the location of the person who cast the curse, he just ran over and killed people without thinking?
Isn't she worried that while she can sense the caster of the spell, the caster can also sense her location?
Wouldn't she suspect that the sensing mechanism of the blood curse might also be a trap?
She didn't even think about how to get away after killing someone!
Even if they succeeded in killing the Great Prophet in the Grey Dwarf's territory, what would happen next?
Does everyone run their own business based on their own abilities?
…
Koi did not mention any of these basic considerations.
Roger even hinted at this in the conversation.
But she still said nothing.
If she really can't think of these things.
Then she couldn't be alive till now!
Therefore, there is only one possibility left -
This girl is a ghost!
Use "thinking amount" to catch the traitor.
This was Roger 's usual tactic when he played Werewolf in his previous life.
Compared to good people, traitors often need to spend more effort to disguise themselves.
All their efforts are put into acting and disguise, so the amount of thinking that can be used in other areas is naturally limited.
…
After confirming that Koi was the mole.
Roger chose to play along.
This not only paralyzes the enemy, but also allows the traitor to lead the way, saving a lot of trouble.
Sure enough, along the way, except for one or two sentry posts, they didn't encounter any other gray dwarves at all.
This is the bait thrown by Koi.
Roger accepted it with a smile.
All he had to do was get rid of Koi before his opponent was trapped.
In this regard, the art of qigong has unique advantages.
Even in the dungeon, he could judge the number of monsters by the thickness of the blood in front of him.
When passing through this cave, Roger noticed that the blood energy in front of him increased by more than ten times.
He knew it was almost time, so he chose to take action early.
In fact, before the results were tested, all this was just Roger's speculation.
Roger also considered what to do if Koi really was simple-minded and familiar with the terrain.
Unfortunately...
The sudden questioning still made the nervous Koi confused, and the identity of the traitor was completely exposed.
Roger had nothing to say.
Just use the Qingxie Sword to serve.
Koi was alert enough and dodged Roger's first three swords by relying on instinct and reaction.
She has quite a lot of strength.
Although she might not be able to beat Roger, it would not be easy for Roger to defeat her in a short period of time.
For this reason, Roger could only delay the battle until it cools down.
This is to accumulate the effect of "Ten Years to One Sword".
Then he decisively upgraded two levels, catching Koi off guard.
Only then was the Lv15 drow warrior cut in half.
In summary.
The scene where Roger killed Coe in seconds seemed understated, but it was not.
Every step he takes is the result of careful calculation.
A slight mistake could have led to a different outcome.
…
Koi didn't carry many items, but each one was a fine piece of jewelry.
First of all, there is the pair of sharp scimitars.
Although it is just blank equipment, the material is extremely good, most likely mixed with some rare metals.
Roger's proficiency with the machete is very low.
His purpose in taking the pair of scimitars was to prepare materials for the subsequent Xiayin weapons.
…
The second is a "Sharp 8" butterfly knife.
Roger found this thing on the inside of Coy's thigh -
The drow girl had weapons hidden all over her body, and it took Roger a lot of effort to remove the butterfly knife, for fear of triggering hidden weapons deeper inside.
The material of the butterfly knife is the same as that of the machete.
It is also a whiteboard, but it is more flexible and concealed and can be hidden in all kinds of strange places.
Roger played with it for a while, unable to let it go.
Then he hid it in--
In the sleeve.
…
The third piece is a defensive piece of equipment, "Mithril Heart Armor".
…
"Mithril Heart Armor (Incomplete)"
「Rating: S+」
「Defense 9, Solidity 7, Material 6, Durability 1」
"Special Skill: Nullify Vital Points (Cannot be used)"
[Nullify Vital Points: When the Mithril Heart Armor is attacked violently, this skill will be automatically released; during the duration of the skill, the wearer will ignore attacks on vital points.]
…
This Mithril Heart Armor was originally a top-grade defensive equipment.
Unfortunately, it was a small broken piece that could only barely protect the chest.
1 point of durability means that it will be automatically damaged as long as it is attacked once, and the inability to use special skills also reminds Roger that this heart armor has suffered too much damage over the years.
Roger felt it was a pity.
But if you think about it carefully, if this thing is complete, you won't be able to kill Koi.
He casually hung the Mithril Heart Armor on his chest.
I don’t know if it was Roger’s illusion .
I could faintly smell a strange fragrance.
…
The final item is a mysterious emblem.
Compared with the craftsmanship of this era, the patterns on the badge appear extremely delicate and advanced.
The emblem depicts a erupting volcano.
Under the volcano, there are countless figures crawling and kneeling.
In addition to identifying the name "Ikadorei's Believer Badge", the aura-gazing technique also revealed the name.
The rest of the columns are a series of question marks.
This looks like an identity certificate bestowed by some god to believers.
Roger thought about it and finally put it away.
In fact, in addition to the above things, the drow girl also has some hidden weapons on her body that make Roger very interested.
But he was too late to proceed further.
The aerobatics detected that a large number of monsters were rushing towards this direction. It might be that the great prophet of the gray dwarf discovered something unusual.
He waited there for a while.
Until the first group of gray dwarves discovered him.
Roger then plunged into the deep and complex cave.
…
