Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 13: Versatile
There are twelve skeleton soldiers in total!
Just a small team.
Generally speaking, summoning spells have a limit on the number of spells you can cast, usually six.
However, there is no such limit to the creatures summoned by the necromancer. As long as they have a steady supply of dead spirits or corpses and enough spell slots, they can continue to create subordinates who only obey their orders.
This is also the terrifying part of the Necromancer. After all, even the most powerful masters will be frightened when facing a large number of undead.
But for Marvin, the apprentice of the necromancer was not so scary.
"Probably level three or four."
"You can only summon 12 skeletons, and it's so difficult to control them. Your skills are too low, right?"
"That's it, you still want to kill me?"
Marvin sneered in his heart, bent down, and skillfully stabbed the scimitar in his hand into the right kneecap of a skeleton soldier!
A simple reversal!
Cross it!
With a crisp sound, the skeleton soldier's kneecap was removed!
The guy immediately lost his balance and fell to the ground.
They were not the flexible [Blue Bone Warriors], but just a group of skeleton soldiers with an average level of less than level 2. They were a complete waste for Marvin!
He was agile and attacked left and right among the skeleton soldiers.
The skeleton soldiers couldn't keep up with Marvin at all.
Under the astonished gaze of the necromancer apprentice, Marvin dismantled this small team of skeletons in just half a minute.
"How is it possible?"
The undead wizard apprentice was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly. Fortunately, he still had some brains. After all his skeleton soldiers were wiped out, he turned around and ran!
Of course Marvin won't let him go!
He took a quick step, accelerated suddenly, and caught up with the fleeing undead wizard apprentice in just a few breaths!
Who knew that at this moment, the latter suddenly turned around and a black light shot out from his finger.
First-level spell, [Dark Ray]!
Anyone hit by the dark ray will be randomly infected with a disease! This disease will develop quickly, and although it is not fatal, it is very troublesome.
Marvin's eyelids jumped. His nine points of physical strength could not withstand the weakening of the dark rays!
[Shadow Cut Step]!
In an instant, he exerted force with his left foot and forced himself to move half a body length to the right front!
With a whoosh, a dark ray passed by his ear.
Escaped.
However, at this moment, the Undead Wizard Apprentice suddenly revealed a ferocious smile: "Can you dodge twice?"
As he spoke, a dark ray burst out from the fingers of his other hand!
Still Dark Ray!
Only this time, the enemy used a ring on the finger of his other hand to cast the spell!
The distance between the two sides was very close. According to common sense, Marvin had no way of avoiding it!
This was also planned by the Undead Wizard's apprentice. This guy was not completely stupid. After discovering that Marvin might be a good player, he immediately formulated an emergency tactic!
Pretend to run away first, then attack the enemy with two consecutive dark rays!
It was a perfect plan. Once Marvin was hit by the dark ray, his other spells would have room to come into play.
Unfortunately, all this is based on the premise that Marvin cannot avoid this dark ray!
But that’s not the case.
At the moment when the second dark ray burst out, Marvin didn't think at all.
His body reacted immediately, instinctively.
This time, he used his right leg to exert force, and his whole body was suddenly and forcibly moved half a body length to the left front!
This action is exactly the same as the shadow step just now!
whoosh!
Escaped again!
The necromancer apprentice was completely dumbfounded!
How can this be?
Can this guy use his dodge skill twice in a row?
Before he could react, Marvin had already pounced on him mercilessly!
Two scimitars were held open, and the throat-cutting technique was used forcefully from the front!
[You use the throat-cutting technique (46) on the target...]
[The skill was successfully activated, causing fatal damage! ]
[The target died, and you gained 49 kill experience points.]
The necromancer apprentice had his throat cut head-on. Although he managed to retract his neck at the most critical moment, he still couldn't avoid Marvin's ferocious skill!
He never understood until his death how Marvin used Shadow Step twice in a row!
…
After killing the Necromancer apprentice, Marvin was a little out of breath. The two bursts just now consumed a lot of his physical strength.
This is the power of wizards. Even a wizard apprentice can make Marvin give his all.
The first-level spell was cast quickly and fiercely. With Marvin's physical condition, he had no way of resisting it and could only rely on dodging.
And those two moves just now were basically a reflection of Marvin's rich experience.
In the first step, he did use the authentic Shadow Cut Step!
Most people, as long as they are right-handed, use their left leg to move to the right when they perform the shadow step. The same is true for Marvin.
But in the game of his previous life, Marvin himself also practiced the reverse skill!
That is, use your right foot to exert force and step to the left!
This continuous change of pace helped Marvin successfully kill the enemy many times.
Although the second cut is not a skill and does not have a high priority, after Marvin's training, he has already mastered it.
The technical movements have become very standard.
This kind of reaction is impossible without years of training. The reason why Marvin can do this is also due to the instinct deep in his soul.
After his soul and body were perfectly integrated, he was able to coordinate and control his body more easily.
But even so, after two consecutive bursts of cutting steps, he still felt a slight pain in his right leg.
"It's a little strained."
"My physical condition is still not good enough to support this kind of explosive technical combo."
Marvin shook his head and began to check the items on the necromancer apprentice.
This necromancer apprentice must have a mentor, so Marvin did not stay there for long, but took the things from him and left.
This guy is very poor and has basically no money.
The only thing of value on him was the ring on his right hand. Marvin checked it out and found that it was just like the charging staff, which could store magic and release it when needed. However, its quality was much lower than that of the charging staff, and it could not be charged any more.
"I can use the dark ray once more." Marvin confirmed it and put it on his left hand.
The rest of the loot was a few basic books on necromancy, which were of no use to Marvin.
"Hey? This pass is pretty good."
Marvin was somewhat surprised to find a parchment scroll from the corpse. This was the official pass to the Hill of Despair.
It seems that this apprentice of the necromancer is indeed organized. With this pass, he can freely enter and exit the Hill of Despair.
After a simple cleanup, Marvin didn't even bother to pick up the bodies and just left.
The necromancers were heretics who desecrated the dead, and it was they who took the initiative to attack him, so Marvin did not feel the slightest bit of guilt about it.
…
Walking on the path of Despair Hill, Marvin began to look through the records of previous battles.
A record that surprised him popped up -
[Since you repeatedly use other professions' technical moves in battle, one of your personal specialties will move towards this aspect. Personal specialty formation progress: 100/100]
[Since you can skillfully use the technical moves of other professions in battle, and use them frequently, relevant personal expertise has been formed! ]
[You have gained personal expertise - versatile]
“Surprisingly multi-talented!”
Marvin was a little excited.
This expertise is extremely rare and mysterious. Even in his previous life, Marvin had never obtained this expertise.
I didn't expect that I would be lucky if I changed my job to Ranger. Because if he was a thief, he would not use the technical moves of other professions.
[Multi-talented]: You can get an extra part-time job quota. And the first part-time job is exempted from experience penalty.
The description of the feat is simple, but the content is very interesting.
In the world of Fenan, the restrictions on professions are very strict.
A person can have at most two combat professions, one main profession and one part-time profession.
Once you choose to work part-time, you will suffer a very serious experience penalty. Even so, many people are still eager to work part-time.
Because the benefits of multiclassing are obvious. You will gain extra skills, which is very helpful in combat.
Now Marvin has acquired the personal specialty of versatility.
This means that he can have two part-time professions, and the first part-time job will not suffer an experience penalty.
This is so practical.
However, Marvin soon began to worry about what part-time job he should do.
