"Is this the charm of Alice?!"
After calming down from the state of ecstasy.
Roger thought with great satisfaction.
This attribute is really awesome!
He just happened to start thinking about a question recently, which is whether the upper limit of the level of Xiayin will become a bottleneck in his development process——
The basic profession setting capped at level 100 means that the effect of the "Experience Backtracking Scroll" has an upper limit.
At the current level.
One experience rewind scroll can allow Roger to stack up to 153 layers of power.
And want to break through this limit.
You have to use multiple experience rewind scrolls, or use the "Pot of Greed" in conjunction.
However, the experience rewind scroll has a 25-second cooldown period.
During the 60 seconds that "Charge" is in effect.
He can only play 2 scrolls at most, and can only stack up to 253 layers of power.
certainly.
In the most extreme case, he can use one scroll to reset his level first, and then use subsequent scrolls when the battle occurs.
The maximum number of layers that can be charged in this way is 300.
That is a 45,000% increase in power!
This number looks terrifying.
But this style of play is also very risky, after all, not all enemies will stand there stupidly for you to attack.
Take the deep-sea python as an example.
If Roger did not have the "Mountain Talisman" in his hand and was sure that Python was at the end of his strength, he would not have taken action.
He knows it very well.
This kind of fancy operation is risky and must be done with extreme caution.
The attribute enhancement granted by the "Evil Crow" provides Roger with another idea.
If you can break through the shackles of the level cap.
Then what Roger has to do is very simple, and it is also in line with his usual strategy -
Just work hard to gain XP!
…
After the evil crow died.
The body was completely burnt, and a tiny light green crystal appeared in the ashes.
…
"Hint: You have obtained 'Evil Spirit*1'"
…
"Evil Ghost Essence: The soul substance left behind by the evil ghosts after death, suspected to have special uses; insufficient knowledge points, it is recommended to study 'Knowledge of Exotic Creatures' and 'Knowledge of Evil Ghosts'"
…
"There is almost no difference between this evil crow and an ordinary crow."
"I can't tell it from my perception. Maybe it's not a matter of disguise."
Roger observed the spirit carefully.
This thing is a square polyhedron with such regular cross-sections that it doesn't look like it was formed naturally.
After a while.
He found a thick empty glass bottle and sealed it away.
Among the several monsters that Wushan Town has long offered a bounty on, there is the evil crow.
The necessary item to collect the bounty is the evil ghost spirit.
Although Roger is very rich now.
But he would never let go of the bounty he deserved.
Now.
He stood up and changed his route, heading northeast along the path.
There.
There is a dense jungle called 'Jackal Forest'.
To the north of the forest farm is the famous "Mirror Lake".
Jinghu Lake is famous for its beautiful scenery.
But in recent years, due to the presence of evil spirits, it has gradually become desolate.
Roger walked all the way over.
Many abandoned farms and ranches were discovered.
"I heard from Alan before that these farmers have all migrated south."
Looking at those abandoned houses.
A faint sense of crisis emerged in Roger's heart.
It was as if someone was watching me secretly.
The next moment.
He turned around suddenly, drew his bow and shot an arrow!
whoosh!
The transparent arrow of trade wind suddenly pierced through the air and shot down a crow that was perched on the eaves of a farmhouse!
Bang!
…
"You killed a kind crow."
…
"Your chivalry value -10"
…
Roger was stunned for a moment.
Then he walked over expressionlessly, picked up the crow's body and examined it carefully.
The arrow of the trade winds pierced the crow's heart with pinpoint accuracy.
There is no sign of any remaining evil spirit in its body.
“It’s a bit troublesome.”
Roger looked at the dark shadows on the farmhouse in the distance and frowned slightly.
He decided to observe for a while longer.
The next moment.
He approached the crows calmly.
Those crows are not afraid of strangers either.
Instead, she yelled at him.
In the eyes of Qigong, they are all kind crows.
But Roger knew.
There must be some evil crows mixed in there!
“Wow, ho, ho!”
Roger suddenly yelled and stamped his feet hard.
The crows were startled and fluttered their wings for a while.
But soon.
Seeing that Roger did not take any follow-up action, they sprayed back even more fiercely.
"Woo-a-a-a!"
The sharp cry pierced Roger's eardrums.
He really wanted to chop his ears off with the Taiyi Lihuo Knife.
But the little chivalry he had left reminded him that he must be calm and composed when making friends.
This time the brothers were indeed a bit uncooperative.
He must show enough sincerity!
that's all.
Roger spent the entire day battling wits and courage with the flock of crows near the abandoned farm.
During this period.
He took 10 shots.
In the end, he killed three evil crows, but lost 70 points of chivalry.
This result certainly did not satisfy him.
The sin mark is clearly indicated.
Every 50 evil crows can increase the level cap by 1.
If this ratio continues, by the time his attributes reach their peak, he would probably be deeply in debt in terms of chivalry points!
He was also counting on using chivalry points to increase the accumulated damage.
"It's definitely not going to work if we just kill them randomly."
"We still need to find a way to catch the traitor among the crows..."
"Why do I suddenly feel like playing Werewolf?"
Watching the flock of crows flying into the woods at dusk.
Roger was thoughtful.
…
In the evening.
He returned to the Minotaur Tavern.
Business here is still booming. When Roger walked in, he could see that the hall was already full.
Many people came forward to congratulate him.
They rubbed their bodies against Roger's arm frantically - both men and women - supposedly to rub off on Roger's good luck.
Facing the enthusiastic residents of Wushan Town.
Roger was also a little overwhelmed.
He silently used his specialty of "hiding in the city", and things gradually calmed down.
After a moment.
He found Allen in the backyard, moving barrels of wine.
"How's it going? Did you have any luck?"
Alan smiled cheerfully.
"I guess so...but it feels a little off."
Roger answered truthfully.
The attributes of the evil crow are indeed very strong.
But compared with their brothers on the sea, they are a little too difficult to serve.
But Roger is also an old hunter.
He knew that hunting was not an easy task, not to mention that there was no smooth sailing career in this world.
This little setback was nothing to him.
He came to Allen for the "clue" that had been agreed upon previously.
…
In the cellar.
After Roger told his intention, Alan said happily:
“Of course I’ll give you the clues.
But I have to advise you
It is best not to go into the mountains in the short term.
Half a year ago, some bad news came from the mountain.
Some said that the city lord had gone mad and actually ordered the army of "Sentinels" to cleanse the civilians;
Some people also said that they had dug up an ancient evil creature from underground, and that the dead were all evil creatures disguised as civilians...
Anyway, there are all kinds of stories, and I don’t know which one is true.”
Speaking of this.
The Minotaur put his hands on his hips and sighed:
"What's worse is that -
Half a month ago.
The Astrologer Association of the Organ Country claimed that three treasures from the Sea of ​​​​Break incident flew to the 'Mist Shadow Mountains'.
Many people come here because of its reputation.
So the situation in the mountains is very chaotic now.
I have met many adventurers like you who want to go into the mountains..."
…
that's all.
Alan rambled on for a long time.
Roger didn't interrupt him.
He also wanted to know what had happened recently in the Misty Mountains.
Finally.
The Minotaur whispered:
"...if you insist on going into the mountains, you have to go to the grocery store on Daffodil Street and find a guy named Roddick.
He maintained contact with the people in the mountains and would lead a caravan into the mountains once a month.
But he has a very bad personality. If you want to get in touch with him, you'd better use some special skills.
In addition, you have to know that Rodick works for the "Jackal Family" and he and the Lord have always been at odds..."
Roger took Alan's advice deeply to heart.
No matter what.
He must enter "Drovas", otherwise the expansion of Ammunition Expert will be half useless.
But the timing is indeed something to be considered.
As for the treasures from the 'Sea Between'.
He had already tried divination.
These things that fly out from the endless abyss have strong shielding capabilities, and trying to find them in the vast Misty Mountains is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.
What he wants to solve most right now is the problem of the evil crow!
So Roger asked:
"Is there any way to identify the evil crows?"
Alan shook his head:
"There is no way."
"The most difficult thing about evil spirits is that the animals they possess are almost completely defenseless."
"Well, it should be written in the information I gave you..."
Roger nodded.
He just wanted to confirm it again.
He chatted with Alan for a while and helped him carry a few barrels of wine.
After dinner.
Roger left the town again with brisk steps.
After leaving "Wushan Town" from the east intersection.
Roger changed direction.
Go southeast where there are many farms.
…
The countryside at night in spring has a unique charm.
There was a slight chirping of insects in the grass.
Accompanied by the gentle night breeze.
It's like a gentle and peaceful lullaby.
But this situation will not last long.
Wait until deep green covers the land in the south of the continent.
The chirping of cicadas, crickets, and various frog sounds will take their place, competing for the title of king of noise.
And within the territory of Wushan Town.
This common phenomenon was brought forward many days——
As Roger approached the farm area, the lively sound of "cooing" came with the wind.
He stood on the hill and looked down.
In the paddy fields at the foot of the mountain.
Palm-sized fluorescent frogs are playing around wildly.
Their limbs are extremely strong, and there are pale yellow bumps on their backs. They flicker at night, and at their brightest they are comparable to the street lights in our previous lives!
Roger walked down the mountain road.
It was discovered that these monsters not only gathered in farmlands.
Even the roads are filled with them!
Like any other monsters that are rampant, the lightning frogs behaved very arrogantly.
See Roger coming over.
They actually came over on their own initiative, and the yellow bumps on their backs flashed like small balls of lightning.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Thunder balls the size of ping-pong balls came raining down.
After a while.
Roger was hit by more than a dozen lightning balls!
There is no harm.
But it is extremely insulting.
Roger was amused by these little creatures, so he marked them with a guilty mark and then struck them with a powerful Floating Cloud Palm!
boom!
A palm fell.
The yellow light is very bright.
There is a small pothole on the roadside.
But the next moment.
Roger's brows furrowed slightly.
The pit was full of mud.
There wasn't even a single lightning frog corpse to be seen!
“What a fast speed!”
Roger was a little surprised.
The Piaoyun Palm is a typical example of appearing and disappearing mysteriously.
But at the moment of pressing it, the twenty or so lightning frogs actually reacted!
Their explosive power is amazing!
on the data bar.
…
"Insight: You noticed that the speed of the lightning frog exceeded 700 points when it burst."
…
"Coo-choo! Coo-choo!"
After dodging the Piaoyun Palm.
Not only did those lightning frogs not run away, but they gathered on the side of the road to watch!
They gathered more and more and began to throw thunder balls at Roger frantically!
Although this trick didn't work on Roger.
But he still retreated calmly.
In this process.
He tried the Floating Cloud Palm twice more, using different postures.
But it still failed.
The lightning frog is so flexible.
Their speed is far greater than that of the Exploding Frog, and they can jump more than 20 meters in an instant!
What's even more terrifying is.
Their lightning element is lethal to ordinary professionals.
“No wonder it’s flooding!”
"If it weren't for the fact that the level was only around Lv30, this area would probably be uninhabitable."
While thinking.
Roger unknowingly attracted the hatred of hundreds of lightning frogs.
Some brave ones even jumped directly onto his shoulders and head!
Some frogs even tried to crawl into his crotch!
If Roger hadn't retracted his penis into his abdomen in time, it would have almost been stolen by it!
“Fuck!”
"Almost."
Roger looked at the more than two hundred lightning frogs around him that were attacking him, and quickly tore open a spell scroll!
…
"Spell: Enhanced Fire Tornado"!
…
Next second.
Terrible flames rose from Roger's body.
The red flames swept everything!
The lightning frogs that were riding on his head and attacking him crazily were the first to die!
Roger quickly looked at the data column.
…
"You killed 1 Lightning Frog"
…
"Your martial arts experience fragment +1"
…
"Martial Arts Experience Fragments: Every 1,000 pieces of martial arts experience fragments can be exchanged for 1 piece of martial arts experience. By piecing together or integrating different martial arts experiences, you can obtain different self-created martial arts."
…
"Is this the charm of Alice!?"
Roger was delighted.
Although the process was a bit bumpy, none of the monsters I encountered when I went out today were bad!
Just think of this.
He suddenly looked into the distance as if he had an epiphany.
There.
Just then a dark shadow passed low over the open farm, and then it took off!
That was a lone "Wyvern"!
There was a little lamb at its feet.
In an instant.
Roger couldn't help but take action.
He waved at the night sky.
One of the clouds fell rapidly, forming a 'somersault cloud'!
Next second.
Roger stepped onto the somersault cloud and launched a full-scale sprint towards the wyvern!
The somersault cloud was quickly consumed.
The distance between the two sides was about 50 meters in the blink of an eye.
His speed is really too fast.
So much so that when the wyvern noticed the aggressive Roger.
It no longer has enough room to circumvent.
…
“Hiss!”
The wyvern growled.
Welcome it.
It was a floating cloud palm falling from the sky!
"If I can't beat the lightning frog, can I still beat you?"
Without waiting for the wyvern to respond.
Roger then launched a ruthless combination of punches!
After knocking the flying dragon's head unconscious with the Piaoyun Palm, the Taiyi Lihuo Knife appeared out of thin air and cut off its neck easily and happily!
The next moment.
Cindy clumsily caught the body and head of the wyvern, as well as the lamb.
And Roger looked at the data column with anticipation!
…
"You killed a wyvern."
…
"Your hemorrhoids grow slightly faster."
…
“Fuck!”
“They’re all fake!”
"There is no such thing as good luck..."
Roger was shaking with anger .
To be honest, he was really depressed at this moment.
The evil crow and the lightning frog are both fine.
How come your wyvern got so frustrated?
This kind of negative attribute full of malice must be used by the system to make up the numbers, right?
He thought angrily.
At this moment.
Cindy flew over with the lamb in her arms.
"Master, look... this sheep is immoral. It's pregnant at such a young age..."
Roger was stunned for a moment.
The lamb had already died after its neck was bitten off by the wyvern.
But its belly was indeed abnormally bulging as Cindy said.
Roger took the lamb.
Then it slowly landed on the ground.
He found an open space, cut open the lamb's belly, and unexpectedly took out something with a dark golden color from it!
…
"High Elf Codex (Magic Book/Immortality)"
「Rating: SS」
"Knowledge: This book contains detailed knowledge of 19,685 elven spells, including 4 15th-level spells and 1 16th-level spell."
"Attribute: Extraordinary Intelligence +3"
…
「Special Effect 1: Key」
"Key: This book is the key to the 'Tower in the Forest'. The holder can open the secret treasure of the Great Elf King."
…
「Special Effect 2: Forest」
"Forest: After activating this special effect, the holder can summon a natural ancient tree with the status of 'forest', and can obtain a group of elves accompanying it."
…
「Special Effect 3: Encapsulation」
"Package: This book contains 12 worlds, each of which corresponds to a month. The holder can enter the packaged world in the corresponding month."
…
「Special Effect 4: Tearing Books」
"Tear the Book: The holder chooses to destroy the book, and then summons 300,000 dead tree spirits to attack everyone regardless of friend or foe."
…
「Special Effect 5: Eating Books」
"Eat the book: After eating this book and successfully digesting it, you will gain 0.5 of the 'elf' or 'forest' stats, and master some of the spells recorded in the book."
…
"Immortal-level item..."
"What a strong attribute!"
Roger was dumbfounded.
"Is this... Alice's charm!?"
The sudden joy made him feel a little dizzy.
After a while.
Roger finally calmed down.
Mainly because the "holding requirements" displayed on the data column poured cold water on him.
…
"Requirements: Intelligence 25 points or more and total level 150 or more"
…
Obviously.
This request is a bit too much for Roger now.
But he noticed it keenly.
The 5th special effect can be activated without "holding".
That is to say.
He can also choose to eat books!
"To eat books or to eat ashes, that is the question..."
Roger didn't hesitate for too long and decided to let the "High Elf Code" gather dust.
The reason is very simple.
His chewing ability is full, but his digestion ability is not yet.
He was not sure whether his stomach would tolerate this book.
So it can only be put on hold temporarily.
But anyway.
It is always a joy to obtain an immortal item out of thin air.
The sixth sense told Roger.
This thing should also come from the 'Endless Abyss' and belong to the batch that flew away at that time. I don't know how it got into the lamb's stomach.
But this is not surprising.
Magic books of this level have self-protection awareness and can even cast some small spells. It might be that it got in by itself.
As for where it was drilled from.
Roger was also puzzled.
However, this thing also has some hidden dangers.
When Roger was dealing with the corpse of the wyvern, he discovered traces of "Monster Control"!
"Is it possible that a wizard knew that the book was in the lamb's stomach, but for some reason couldn't just take action, so he sent a wyvern to capture it?"
Roger frowned again.
to be honest.
His mood fluctuated between ups and downs too many times today.
After learning about this.
He no longer felt anything.
He immediately disposed of all traces at the scene quickly and then left on the somersault cloud.
To prevent complications.
He deliberately took a walk in the wild.
Then he used earth escape to return to Wushan Town.
…
In the next few days.
Roger simply stayed in the guest room on the second floor of the Minotaur Tavern.
During the day.
He would occasionally stroll down Daffodil Street and buy something from Roddick's grocery store, but he never stayed long.
At night, he would hide in his room alone to refine his essence.
Um.
Refining Qi into essence.
…
"Refine Qi into Essence: You lost 200 points of Qi, you gained 1 drop of Essence, your life span increased by 8,640,000 seconds."
…
"Hint: You have completed the first stage of 'Refine Qi into Essence'. There is no Qi left in your Qi orifices."
…
night.
In the room.
Roger slowly opened his eyes, and at that moment, there was a captivating light in his pupils.
The Grandmaster’s angry glare was not activated.
There is a sense of majesty without even getting angry.
This is the benefit of "refining qi into essence".
He felt a warm power surging in his eyeballs. He didn't know what would happen after a while, but he felt very comfortable now.
After the first round of refining is completed.
Roger's life span increased by more than 50 years, and all the energy in his body was converted into essence.
In the qi cavity.
The appearance of semen is a light liquid.
Qi is the gas of nothingness.
In fact, the two are just two levels of the same energy and can be transformed into each other at any time.
Right now.
The five energy orifices in Roger's body were vibrating wildly.
The energy that had been completely consumed slowly began to grow again.
That’s not all.
The air membrane of the sixth orifice seemed to be about to be pierced.
"If you continue like this, within half a year, the sixth orifice will be formed."
See here.
Roger's heart was filled with emotion.
Relying on my own unremitting struggle and hard work.
Now he finally looks like a martial arts master!
Wait until I see Qin again.
I am a teacher myself.
You should be qualified to give the other person some pointers, right?
…
After a moment.
Roger calmed himself down, jumped directly from the window to the roof, and then left Wushan Town under the cover of night.
In the past week.
That immortal-level item didn't cause him any trouble.
So Roger relaxed his guard a little.
I just happen to have time tonight.
He decided to start his own hunting plan!
Considering that there has been no progress in the research on evil spirits.
Roger plans to deal with those arrogant lightning frogs first!
Along the way.
He quickly completed the preparations for the frog hunt.
The first thing is to live up to the title of "natural enemy of frogs".
In fact, he has enough damage to kill the Lightning Frog.
But it's an attitude.
He will not underestimate any opponent.
…
The second thing is to carry Roger's favorite "pull-out atomizer"——
It was originally to hunt down the Sloan frogmen.
Roger has deployed more than 200 sprayers, and now there are more than 100 left.
He checked it out these days.
The shelf life has not expired.
The "Madora's Tears" stored in the box is still effective.
The only possible problem is that there are farms in that area, and if the toxin spreads, it may accidentally injure residents.
But Roger was well prepared for this.
Among the 9 purple items retrieved from the Endless Abyss, there is one "Purification Stone".
This thing can purify toxins to a certain extent.
Plus other means.
It should be possible to ensure that the lives of nearby residents are not affected.
…
20 minutes later.
On the mountain road near the "Kai Lan Farm".
Roger walked slowly.
"Cuckoo, quack, quack!"
Arrogant voices came from all directions.
Roger quickened his pace slightly.
A while later.
He began to run slowly across the paddy fields, and this movement startled many monsters that were in watch mode.
They followed with their claws and fangs bared.
After a moment.
There were more than 200 lightning frogs gathered around Roger!
See the situation is almost the same.
He decisively turned the nozzle and sprayed towards the place where there were the most lightning frogs!
Swish!
A thick poisonous fog sprayed out.
The lightning frogs were completely unaware.
They even stuck out their tongues and licked it.
You will die after licking it!
Madora's tears can kill even the Sloan frogmen, let alone these lower frog creatures!
Puff puff puff!
Pleasant sounds are heard all the time.
Roger sprayed the 'pesticide' at the fastest speed.
For a while.
Poisonous fog was everywhere.
The roaring lightning frogs were caught off guard and suddenly turned over on their stomachs, lying in the field.
After the first wave of spraying.
A total of 179 lightning frogs died at Roger's hands!
This efficiency is much higher than using spell scrolls.
You know.
The last time Roger used the "Enhanced Fire Tornado" to burn the lightning frogs, he only killed the wave closest to him. The monsters on the periphery sensed the ether fluctuations and slipped away.
And in front of the "atomizer".
The lightning frogs are as simple as a piece of paper.
It was not until they sensed that their fellows were dying one after another that some lucky guys escaped.
Roger doesn't care about these lucky ones.
He ran excitedly to the paddy field next door and continued to pull monsters around.
The frogs here obviously don't know the news of their compatriots' death.
They came over very cooperatively.
Above the paddy field.
The electric frogs were running around.
The thunder balls dance wildly.
Roger's right hand kept twitching and his mouth was almost crooked with laughter!
…
More than two hours later.
Roger dealt with the lightning frog in the sixth paddy field.
This message came from the data column.
…
"You killed 1 lightning frog, and killed a total of 1032 lightning frogs."
…
"Tip: You can redeem 'Martial Arts Experience' now."
…
Roger immediately chose to exchange.
Next second.
…
"You have gained martial arts experience: special martial arts, please choose from the following options -"
"1. Deduction (You can immediately deduce a martial art of your own creation)"
"2. Piece together (wait for more martial arts experience to piece together, and when the number is appropriate, it will automatically deduce)"
"3. Fusion (Choose a martial art you have already mastered, and after integrating your experience, the martial art will be improved to a certain extent)"
…
See here.
Roger didn't make an immediate choice.
He first checked the progress bar.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
The progress bar has only reached about 5%, which means that Roger can get at least 20 pieces of martial arts experience!
He thought about it.
To be on the safe side, 2 and 3 are both good choices.
But he chose 1.
Because deep in Roger's heart, there is always a desire to prove himself!
Create your own martial arts!
Only those who create their own martial arts can be called a true master!
"Anyway, there is still room for error."
Roger took a deep breath.
Select "Deduction".
…
"Hint: The deduction of martial arts experience was successful!"
…
"You have acquired your own martial arts: Iron Head Kung Fu. Your mastery of Iron Head Kung Fu is 'Martial Arts Mastery'."
…
"Iron Head Skill (Passive/Basic): Your skull hardness exceeds 700 points;
Self-created bonus: Your hair hardness exceeds 300 points"
…
"Congratulations on completing your first self-created martial arts. I have detected that you are the leader of the Qingquan Sect. Do you want to make the 'Iron Head Kung Fu' a compulsory martial arts for the Qingquan Sect?"
…
Roger silently chose no.
He stroked his iron-hard hair.
I couldn't utter a word.
"fortunately."
"Not hard all the time."
"It will be soft when it's time to be soft..."
Roger tried to control it.
The hair slowly softened.
He sighed a little disappointedly:
"Where's the good luck you promised me?"
"Although the Iron Head Skill is very practical, it is too simple and not very impressive..."
When he thought so.
There is new information on the data bar.
…
"You have completed your own martial arts for the first time, and you have achieved a new milestone: Martial Arts Prodigy."
"Martial Arts Prodigy: You have successfully lowered the average level of martial arts prodigies."
"Corresponding title: The spokesperson of the Iron Head Kung Fu without Cutting Hair (your hair has an extra appeal to martial artists)"
…
"What's the use of attraction?"
“I don’t need to endorse shampoo…”
Roger couldn't help but complain.
He immediately thought:
"It seems that luck has its limits..."
"I should be content."
He was about to close the data bar.
Who knew that the information would keep coming out——
…
"Tip: Your milestone points total more than 300 points, you can use milestone points to exchange for new props."
…
"Renewal Ticket (New Item)"
「Type: Consumables」
「Price: 100 Milestone Points」
"Use: After use, you can choose an attribute from the sin marks you have obtained to continue the relationship.
The method is to specify any monster.
After killing this kind of monster.
You will be able to obtain the same attributes as before (the front edge monsters whose attributes cannot be improved cannot be specified)"
…
See here.
Roger couldn't help but clench his fists.
If it was in the previous life.
He will definitely play a song called Good Luck!
“This is too good!”
"this……"
"Is this also Alice's charm?!"
…
