The stick skills Jiang Feng displayed in the arena did not look complicated, let alone fancy.
Gao Fei, a martial arts layman, couldn't understand the subtlety of her moves. It seemed that her moves were just a little faster than ordinary people, and the attack angles were a little trickier.
However, with such simple and unpretentious stick skills, he could easily knock down the powerful tauren without even letting the opponent touch the corners of his clothes. Perhaps this is the so-called simplicity and return to nature.
The only thing Gao Fei could figure out was that Jiang Feng used a stick as a lever to trip up the Minotaur in the flash of lightning. Such a skillful technique was unlikely to be a spur-of-the-moment move, and he had probably practiced this move specifically.
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that no wonder Jiang Feng chose the specialty of "Proficient in Trips". If this trick is used skillfully, it will be really abnormal!
Gao Fei remembered another thing. When joking around, Jiang Feng often said, "Take my stick."
I used to think that she was playing the meme cosplay "Sun Dasheng three fights the white-bone demon", but now I know that is not the case. One day, I angered Daxia Jiang and really took a blow from her. My small physique is far worse than that of a tauren. I'm afraid.
I can't bear it...
Quietly wiping away his cold sweat, Gao Fei put aside this dangerous idea and instead imagined that he would be the one to fight in the arena. He might not be able to muster up the courage to face the ferocious tauren from the first-person game perspective.
If a turn-based combat mode is adopted, gladiatorial combat becomes a tabletop game of comparing data. Unless you are extremely lucky, you will most likely end up tragically killed by the tauren's giant axe.
Jiang Feng entered the battle from a first-person perspective, faced the menacing tauren, and finally won without any injuries. Gao Fei could only think that Jiang Feng's "human flesh performance" as a gamer was too abnormal, and provided Sumo with difficult-to-use skills on both offense and defense.
Data quantifies hidden bonuses.
After tonight's gladiatorial game, Rubio Lopez came to the locker room with his giant attendants to congratulate Somo on another wonderful victory.
After a few polite words, Master Rubio proposed an unexpected deal to the arena owner - he would pay for Somo's deed of sale.
Of course Abdullah Ismail did not dare to offend the young baron and the majority shareholder of the arena, but he still complained sadly that Master Rubio had stolen his cash cow. After some bargaining, he finally settled the deal for 2,000 gold coins.
.
After learning that he had changed from a gladiator to a valet of the Lopez family, Somo seemed a little overwhelmed and asked the new owner uneasily why he spent such a large sum of money to buy him.
At the same time, a dialog box popped up on Jiang Feng's operating interface, asking her to make a DC10 "insight" test.
By passing the test, you can identify Master Rubio's true intentions and see whether the other party's answer is insincere.
Jiang Feng's monk has not yet learned the "insight" skill. Fortunately, the perception attribute is as high as 18, which provides a 4 correction for the insight check.
Moreover, judging from the fact that the test difficulty is only 10 points, Rubio Lopez does not seem to have any intention of deceiving.
After successfully passing the test after rolling the dice, Master Rubio answered Somo's questions with a smile.
"I spent money to redeem you, mainly because your figure and appearance are somewhat similar to mine. What's more valuable is that you have good kung fu and can serve as my 'stand-in' with a little makeup."
Master Rubio's so-called "stand-in" is a special servant kept by the noble lords. When necessary, he disguises himself as the master and goes out in public to help the master create alibi.
Activities that do not match one's status, such as private meetings with a friend's wife or an emissary from an enemy country.
In addition, the "substitute" of a nobleman also has a very important mission, which is to appear on behalf of the master in some more dangerous situations where he may be assassinated. When necessary, he will sacrifice his own life to mislead the assassin and prevent disaster for the master.
Such a substitute is also called a "shadow warrior".
Regardless of whether Somo is willing or not, he has to accept the new identity imposed on him by Master Rubio.
To take a step back, being a "shadow warrior" for a noble young master is certainly not a decent job, but at least it is much better than staying in the arena to fight monsters, living a precarious life with the blade of a knife licking blood.
In this way, Somo bid farewell to the arena and followed Master Rubio back to the Lopez family's manor to start a new life.
The third chapter of "The Foreigners in the Vast Sea" has come to an end. Jiang Feng finally received the astrolabe prompt - completing the plot milestone, astrolabe energy 1 (6/6)!
After defeating the lion and the tauren warrior successively, Somo accumulated enough experience points and was promoted to level 4 Yangyan monk.
After this upgrade, Soma's maximum health value is 8 (35/35), and 1 additional attribute has been added.
Jiang Feng added the newly added attribute points to perception. After all, perception is the main attribute of the monk. The capacity of the qi pool and the defense level of the body's protective energy all depend on perception.
The 4th-level Sunfire monk learns two new class abilities.
The first is "fighting qi attack". As long as the monk's qi pool is not empty, the real qi can be permanently poured into the fists and feet. Unarmed attacks are regarded as magic weapons and can penetrate certain monsters with specific damage-reducing armor, such as transforming into corpse monsters.
Captain Coase.
The second new ability is "Scorching Glory". It costs 6 points of infuriating energy to convert into pure energy. It turns into a blazing beam and shoots out from the palm of the hand. It bombards enemies a hundred feet away and causes 10d6 radiant damage after hitting it. If the target cannot pass
Fortitude save and temporarily blinded.
"Scorching Glory" also has a special effect that can cause double damage to undead creatures or dark elves and other creatures that are naturally afraid of sunlight!
After Sumo understood this unique skill, he had no shortage of long-range attack methods in the future, and his combat effectiveness achieved a qualitative leap.
After reaching level 4, the "sword girdle" has completed the first level of synchronization. Now the weapon that this belt becomes has its own enchantment level of 1.
This time Jiang Feng achieved another achievement of clearing the level without loading files, and received a specialty reward. As usual, he chose one of the three.
"Strong", "Powerful Attack" and "Dexterous Actions", needless to say the first two, only "Dexterous Actions" is new.
…
Dexterity Action: Spend one bonus action each round to perform actions such as "retreat", "sprint", or "hide".
Retreat: Perform the retreat action to avoid attacks of opportunity while moving.
Sprint: Performing the Sprint action can double the movement speed of this round.
Hide: Perform the hiding action and lurk in dark areas. Unless the enemy's "Passive Perception" is higher than your Stealth check, they will not be aware of your presence.
