"Dad..." Simone wanted to stop his father, but was pushed away by the old man.
This man, who has been selfish and vain all his life, finally realizes his conscience when his eldest son is about to die at the sword of his enemy, and realizes that there are things in life that are more valuable than the fame and fortune that he has spent his whole life greedily pursuing.
"Young man, please don't kill my son..." The old man walked up to Musk and begged with tears in his eyes, "Yes, I am guilty! It was me who deceived your father and stole part of the assets that belonged to him.
Your family is bankrupt..."
"You finally confessed?" Musk turned the rapier and pointed the sharp blade at Sir Colombo's violently heaving chest, with disdain and hatred intertwined in his eyes.
"Yes... I plead guilty," the old man choked with shame, "but Umberto is innocent. Young man, direct all your hatred at me! Exercise your right of revenge and pierce me with your sword.
chest, this is the fate I deserve!"
"My child, I hope that my sinful soul will still have a chance to go to heaven and confess to your father face to face..."
At the end of the story, this frail old man, whose spirit was completely broken, was crying.
Do you want to stab this sword?
Young Musk hesitated.
Normally, the final decision on whether to spare Sir Colombo or not should be left to the player.
However, this module does not take the usual path. Perhaps it is to depict the protagonist's mental journey and ideological changes. Players can only be spectators at the last, most critical plot node.
Gao Fei looked on anxiously.
Since it was agreed before the duel that Sir Colombo would be forgiven for his crimes as long as he repented and confessed in public, Musk should not kill him. Otherwise, wouldn't he be breaking his promise and being unworthy of a gentleman?
But having said that, Gao Fei also knows that he is not qualified to force Musk to be polite and force him to forgive his enemies.
After all, it was Musk's biological father who was driven bankrupt and committed suicide by Sir Colombo, not his high-flying father. Why should he be so generous to others and stand up and talk without feeling pain in his back?
Including Gao Fei, thousands of people inside and outside the duel venue held their breaths, and all eyes were focused on Musk, expecting this young man to make the final choice between hatred and forgiveness.
Every second seems like a century.
I don’t know how long it took, and I don’t know how much suffering he endured in his heart. Musk finally lowered his rapier and waved at Sir Colombo, asking him to leave.
Tears welled up from the young man's closed eyes and flowed down his cheeks.
At the last moment, he finally defeated his inner demons and chose to forgive his enemies.
There were thunderous cheers outside the stadium, and a tsunami of applause erupted.
In the warmest way, people paid their highest respect to Musk Justice who put down his hatred.
Umberto couldn't help but burst into tears, stepped forward and hugged his little brother vigorously.
At the same time, Musk's relatives and friends, including Lisa, Claire, Simone, Paul and Giuliano, could not restrain their excitement and rushed into the duel with cheers.
The story of "Dueling Agents" came to a successful conclusion at this moment when tears and laughter intertwined.
…
Gao Fei was not in a hurry to exit the game interface, while reminiscing about the plot, he was also waiting for the perfect pass reward released by the system.
According to past rules, if you successfully complete the level 12 long module, you will be rewarded with at least one rare profession and a legendary or mythical specialty.
Gao Fei thought about it and found that he had basically obtained all the professions that had appeared in the game, except for Umberto's unique profession "Swiss Swordsman".
As expected, "Swiss Swordsman" appears in the clearing reward list.
This is an S-level profession with comprehensive performance comparable to "Dragon Warrior". In other words, in addition to exclusive professions such as "Imulator" and "Spell Thief", the strongest profession that can be obtained in the game is S Level.
Compared with the "Dragon Warrior" who takes the transformation route and focuses on strengthening strength, the "Swift Swordsman" has a completely opposite style. It is a typical agility profession and pursues speed to the extreme.
What needs special attention is that "Dragon Warrior" is a pure melee combat profession, and "Swift Swordsman" is not necessarily a profession!
If you open your mind and don't be constrained by the word "swordsman", and equip the "swift swordsman" with two good guns, combined with super high mobility and high hits brought by high agility, you will find that, This is actually a shooter profession that is very suitable for implementing "kite" tactics.
The gun-wielding "Swift Swordsman" can run almost faster than bullets. He can also "flash" through walls and "instantly accelerate". Tens of thousands of troops can move freely through them. Just shoot and change places. Who can catch him? ?
From this point of view, letting the "Swiss Swordsman" learn "See Through the Fate Gate" and "Long Range Shooting" can also be trained in the direction of a sniper.
If he has extra experience points, Gao Fei thinks he can develop the "Swift Swordsman" profession in the future.
Next are three candidate reward feats, all of which are legendary levels - "Castle in the Sky", "All-round Skill" and "All-round Sneak Attack".
Needless to say, "Universal Sneak Attack", Gao Fei has already seen it in the clearance reward of "Port City Raiders".
This is the first time I have seen the other two legendary specialties.
…
Castles in the Air: When learning advanced expertise or similar abilities, all prerequisites are deemed to be met.
Universal Sleight of Hand: Execute the "Skillful Hand" skill as a reaction action; obtain proficiency in all weapons, equipment, props and tools, and meet the prerequisites required for the equipment (including but not limited to camp, belief, profession, etc.).
…
The idiom "castle in the air" vividly describes the characteristics of this specialty - you don't need to build a foundation, you can build a superstructure directly in the void!
The powerful high-level specialties in the game all require prerequisites, and the corresponding conditions must be met before they can be learned.
For example, the high-level specialty that Goofy is most familiar with is "Standing Still". You must first learn the two prerequisite low-level specialties, "Endurance" and "Tenacious", and then you can learn "Standing Still".
There are also "big follow the trend" and "take the trend", and "strengthen the mind and body" have a similar relationship to "strong".
If Gao Fei chooses "Castle in the Sky", all these prerequisites can be ignored and he can directly learn high-level expertise.
What’s even more powerful about “Castles in the Sky” is that it also applies to legendary feats!
For example, there is no need to master "Replacing Offense with Defense" or "Replacing Offense with Defense" in advance, you can directly learn the legendary feat "Conversion of Offense and Defense"!
Gao Fei then watched "Almighty Hands".
This legendary feat is a bit more complex and does two things.
The first is to strengthen the "dexterity" skills.
Under normal circumstances, Goofy needs to spend a "standard action" to use the "Sleight of Hand" skill, which can be used to pickpocket, pick locks or dismantle traps.
