When I woke up from my long sleep, although my body was still unable to move, the world in my eyes was completely different.
If you have a mirror, you can see that the eyes are completely different from before. One side has turned into black pupils and whites, and the other has turned into white pupils and black whites, just like the two halves of Tai Chi, which is very scary.
The perspective in the eyes is even more strange. On one side is an energy world like infrared imaging, with warm colors such as red, yellow, and orange everywhere, but on the other side, it is full of dead bones and black mud, as if the filth of the world is right in front of you.
Fortunately, after I canceled the 'Gaze of Hades', my eyes returned to normal, otherwise I would have really had to find a piece of cloth to cover my eyes, cosplaying with someone who said "I have been imprisoned for ten thousand years"
Unlucky guy... I suddenly felt that the look seemed cool, but it was very embarrassing to be topless. It would be even more embarrassing if he threw himself on the street halfway through the classic line "You are asking for your own death"
.
Taking a deep breath, he found that the dragon's blood in the blood pool had been reduced by more than half, and there seemed to be some inexplicable changes in his body.
"system?"
At this time, I should find an expert. At least her panel can often help me understand my situation with precise numbers and words.
But unfortunately, although a status panel pops up, the racial talent and attribute values on it keep jumping, making it difficult to see clearly, and they seem to be changing.
"Ha, it seems it's still early."
It seems that the physical body is still evolving. I took a deep breath and planned to plunge my consciousness into the "frozen soil" again, but at this time I got a response from the system.
[*You will enter the teenage period. Please choose the direction of evolution. System prompt: Please pay attention to your choice. Once you make a certain choice, it cannot be changed.]
I was stunned at first when I heard this, but then, the system directly stuffed me with a lot of information, which suddenly made me realize.
[Arbiter bloodline, strength 19, agility 19, body 19, intelligence 29, mind 19, charm 19, talent ability: war angel incarnation. original sin demon incarnation, comprehensive evaluation: double diamond bloodline, recommended occupation: order knight/chaos wizard king
,system
Evaluation: The Arbiter bloodline wanders on the edge of order and chaos. It does not belong to any camp, but can coexist with any camp. The same but different bloodlines have created this miracle body. Maybe he is not the strongest, but he is definitely the most powerful.
There is potential.】
In fact, I have always been surprised. This is obviously rated as a double diamond bloodline. But in actual combat, it performs far worse than Titan's quasi-diamond bloodline, and even much worse than Xiaohong's ancient dragon bloodline. Now I probably
I know the problem is there.
In a sense, the system is just like me. Although it never lies, it often says words that may lead to misunderstanding and deception.
This time, what tricked me was the last sentence in the description, "He is not the strongest, but he definitely has the most potential."
When the teacher praises a student's potential, there may be a subtext of "He is really not that good now." So what the system gave me is just an embryo. The specific step it will take depends on future development and
choose.
So, intentionally or unintentionally, the system still tricked me. At least, what it gave me at that time was not the complete Arbiter bloodline, but the Arbiter larvae bloodline.
This is also the reason why my physical body has always been in an infant state, just like a child who has just finished his early childhood education. Whether he becomes an athlete, artist, musician, etc. depends on the choices he makes after long-term study and training. A child
Let’s learn how to run and talk first.
The world has never been balanced. Just like the otherworldly sports and IQ geniuses, they can easily achieve achievements that ordinary people cannot achieve in their lifetimes. And the athletic abilities of black people in some fields are even higher than those of other people.
Something that no matter how hard you try, you can't achieve.
The racial differences in this world are even greater, and the imbalance is actually more obvious. Orcs are naturally good at hand-to-hand combat, elves are good at bows and arrows and magic, dragons are good at magic and martial arts but grow slowly, undead are born with negative energy affinity, and the only averagely developed humans are
It seems to be the representative of everything being loose.
The body with the most potential? The ladder leading to the strongest? No one knows what kind of power is best for you, what kind of fighting method you will use to get to that point in the end, and what kind of talent you want most, just
I'm afraid the so-called "most potential" means giving you a choice to create the body and talent you most desire.
[Give up at least two racial talents and give directions for strengthening. The more detailed the better. System prompt: Congratulations on graduating from elementary school. Now, it’s time to go to middle school.]
“If you develop averagely as a larvae, do you make choices in adolescence?”
From the information in the system, I learned that the "Arbiter Bloodline" is like the metamorphosis of an insect, which will undergo breakthrough mutations when it reaches a bottleneck. Now, it is time for me to make a choice based on past combat experience.
"Choose? Choose? If you choose, you must give up. If there is something most important, you must give up."
I do hope to be as agile as an elf, as strong as an orc, to be naturally attracted to negative energy like the undead, to control the negative energy force field at will, to be as affinity to positive energy as an angel, and to use it instinctively like breathing, but this is not possible...
Even if this unreasonable bloodline ability is really achieved, it will only make up for the shortcomings and turn the originally outstanding advantages into mediocrity, which is not worth the gain.
"...Incarnation of the War Angel, Incarnation of the Original Sin Demon, Sword of Order, Torso of Titan, Foot of Shadow, Son of God, and Barrier of Chaos. Do you have to give up more than two? Strengthen? Which one should you strengthen?"
After counting the talents in the past, I was thinking about which one had the greatest impact on me and what kind of fighting method I would adopt in the future. However, I fell into trouble for a while. After all, every ability is not bad, but if I look back on the past,
But there is obviously still a difference.
The original sin demon and the war angel incarnation must be retained. Whether it is actual combat or the "frozen soil creation" ability, they are extremely effective, and I think they are the two basic abilities that come with it. They should not be cancelled. Son of God's Favorite
It can easily activate the Book of Divine Decree, and it is also a trump card ability. Naturally, it cannot be canceled.
So, let’s start with the least used abilities and eliminate them first. Of course, if one person is short of the other, then you can ask Heloise, the living library, for advice.
"The Foot of Shadow is the least used of all the innate abilities. It is the ability to escape through the shadow plane. Because although you can save your life after using it, it is equivalent to throwing yourself into another plane. I'm afraid how to come back.
I have to think of another way, and I probably won't be able to come back in a short time. So I haven't used it at all, but since it is an escape ability, I don't know when I will use it..."
"...Is it possible for you to escape? The Titan was placed in front of you before. Aren't you still eager to try? I think you should have faced your true heart a long time ago and become a berserker."
"Huh, that's a desperate situation without death, otherwise I would definitely escape to show you."
As a mage, it is normal to run away if you cannot defeat him. Spellcasters whose growth period is much slower than other professions, if they want to go out for adventure, will definitely prepare two or three "strategic transfer system" special magic.
Lois said that I should be employed as a berserker. She was slandering me as a brainless fool.
"No, I think as long as you are pushed to the limit, you will eventually turn on the mad dog mode and fight to the death. When Esso lost the forbidden curse, you were not able to escape to the shadow plane, but in the end you burned your soul and died together.
, think about it for yourself, have you ever escaped in all these years?"
"...It should, maybe. It seems, but it really doesn't."
"In this sense, you are just like those brainless tin cans."
Saying this reminds me of the education given by a certain so-called strongest paladin mentor when I was young. It was simply a brainwashing lecture that lasted for more than three hours a day.
"... We Paladins will never despair, as long as we fight until the end... Even if we are destined to sacrifice, we must make a valuable sacrifice..."
In fact, the greatest advantage of the Paladin profession is that it is almost immune to fear and despair mental magic, and the team is also accustomed to letting them do the most dangerous jobs. Even because there are too many precedents, when Bayana laughed at the Paladin
When I am a "martyr lover" and suffer from post-discontinuity syndrome, I can't refute it at all.
I personally deny that childhood teachings can have a lifelong impact on someone, but to be honest, if I were forced into a desperate situation again, as long as there was a chance of victory, I probably wouldn't think about running away.
The fact that it has not been used once is probably the most obvious evidence.
"Isn't it necessary to strengthen the ability to escape?"
"For you, it's really not necessary. You won't run away anyway, and you are the immortal Roland. Even if you die, you can just start over."
Well, excluding the first one, then the second to last one is...
"Aside from the Shadow Feet for escape, the second least used one is the ability of the Sword of Order to summon a 'Holy Sword'."
This ability was only used a few times at the beginning, but not used much after that.
Its restriction can only be used once a day, and the usage time is not too long, which is a trivial matter, but the biggest regret is that I do not lack weapons.
Pale Justice, Roland's Holy Sword, and the Immortal Killer Warhammer are all good weapons that can carry the power of holy light and law. Although the artifact-level Roland's Holy Sword was given to Renee, since the dead cat evolved to possess "
After "Calamity Freeze Qi" and "Eternal Sleep Freeze Qi", the Ice Demon Sword that can carry it has become my first choice.
Even with the advancement of ice magic, Irene Bella's bonus to ice magic, and the deadly "disaster freezing air", the ice disaster incarnated by Heloise is in my hands, and its power is no longer the same.
It is not inferior to the artifact-level Roland Holy Sword.
Then, the conclusion is obvious, and what I want to give up is also obvious.
"You are not lacking in melee attack methods. A holy sword that purely uses the power of the Holy Light and the Power of the Law is just useless to you."
What Heloise said makes sense, but why do I feel that she just wants to eliminate her competitors and become my only favorite sword... Well, since I accidentally leaked my true feelings, I will probably have to find a way to remove her from the list.
The head was removed, and recently she actually learned to make her fangs automatically drill like drills, which gave me more headaches in every sense...
"Melee combat ability is meaningless to you, and escape ability is meaningless to you. In fact, the conclusion has been drawn. What is the natural ability that you use the most?"
Then there is another question. Of course...
[Titan Torso (Diamond-Level Racial Talent): Your body contains the original power of Titan, and your skin becomes increasingly like Titan metal, reducing any damage and negative effects by 30%. Any damage is reduced by five points]
[Chaos Barrier (gold-level racial talent): Protect one's own existence from the pressure of the divine realm and the mental image world, and reduce the effectiveness of willpower and vision abilities. 】
Yes, what I use the most are these two purely defensive passive talents. The former protects the body and the latter protects the soul. The combination of the two allows me to live to this day.
Looking at the word "Titan" in "Titan Torso", I was inexplicably reminded of the incarnation of the Titan who was not killed by the true god's self-destruction. The deepest impact they had on me was their extremely excellent defensive capabilities.
There is that frozen earth world, and with my attainments in the four aspects of ice, death, holy light, and law, I do not lack offensive power and attack methods. But perhaps, my shortcoming is still defensive ability.
If you are trampled to death on the battlefield, even if you have all kinds of abilities, you can only die in hatred.
The armor of freezing flames that is almost invincible to Oomdiroken is actually the glass hedgehog armor that fears the deadly freezing flames at the opponent. If I encounter a stupid person who really rushes to smash my ice armor, I'm afraid
I have to find a way to avoid being frozen into eternal sleep.
And only by staying alive can there be hope and the possibility of turning the tide of the war.
"...Strengthening defense capabilities may be the most suitable path for me."
[...It is not recommended that the host chooses this evolution direction. Without the help of Titan materials, it cannot evolve to the level you expect, and once chosen, it cannot be replaced. System prompt: Who told you that you did not complete the task? Next time. 】
Although there is no good word, in a sense, I can see the painstaking efforts of the system.
The mission given to me in the duel with "Zero" is probably because Zero's knowledge system is the greatest supplement to me. It is a great opportunity for me to complete the soul seal of the undead system, and the body of the Titan is probably the most suitable.
In the direction of my physical body improvement, the ancient red dragon bloodline evolution, which is almost effortless with Xiaohong's help, is probably just a backup consolation prize.
And just from the recent battles, it can be seen that the physical strength of the dragons and the physical strength of the Titans are probably not at the same level. Once you choose the dragon vein, although you can greatly enhance your physical strength, you may also be able to obtain the attack methods of the dragons, but
Simply looking at the defensive capabilities, I'm afraid it's far inferior to the Titan bloodline.
I myself hesitated. I have worked so hard to get to this point, and it would be a pity if I went astray.
I can probably guess what kind of abilities the dragon vein can bring. After all, due to the inherent nature of dragons, there are too many real dragon hybrids created. There are also many dragon vein warlocks in this world, and those dragon vein abilities have been thoroughly studied.
.
Not to mention the substantial attribute improvement that comes with dragon blood and dragon vein. Although it is very useful for ordinary dragon vein users who are originally weak, because my basic attribute base is too high, the degree of improvement is estimated to be limited, and I am not looking forward to it.
Dragon scale armor allows the body to grow scales to enhance physical and magical defense. If I have never seen a Titan before, I can say that it is invulnerable and extremely practical, but I already have the powerful talent of "Titan Torso", and I have experienced it.
How could it be possible to be satisfied with Titan's disgustingly hard defense?
The flying ability brought by dragon wings seems simple, but the flying ability is always the most practical. Unfortunately, I already have the War Angel transformation. As my strength increases, the time and number of transformations also increase. This flying ability
Ability is completely useless to me.
Dragon's Breath, this is an extremely powerful attack ability, with wide range, strong attack, and fast activation. But the problem is that as mentioned before, I don't lack attack methods. This is probably a useless weapon with a little value.
The improved melee combat ability of the dragon claws and tail... To be honest, this is the most disabled thing. I am not a monk, I am a sword player. This melee combat ability is completely meaningless. The dragon's claws will affect the flexibility of using the sword.
And get used to it.
If he really grew claws, teeth, and a tail, before he was worried about being disfigured, he would be the half-dragon who inexplicably tamed the mythical beast! The dragon clan is his family! He can definitely do anything!
The more I think about it, the more I regret it. This dragon vein evolution is not only useless, but in a sense, it is also a very dangerous useless thing...
But suddenly, when I saw Heloise and Irenebella who were forced to soak in dragon blood with me due to the pull of the soul contract, a very zombie-like attention suddenly appeared in my mind. If this is feasible, then the dragon vein evolution will be
It would not be useless, but a real shortcut to improve my combat power, so I hesitantly put forward my request to the system.
What answered me was a long silence, as if the system was calculating something, but I became happy. What I was most afraid of was being rejected, which undoubtedly showed that this idea was feasible.
[...150,000 destiny points. More refunds and less compensation... That's impossible, one price!]
In an instant, I became angry. My destiny points accumulated to 143,451, no more, no less, but I was stuck at this level. It was obvious that this guy was trying to trick me.
"It wouldn't be so expensive to have a new body. Also, why is it stuck at the upper limit of all my points? Don't think that I don't know why it's an integer every time, just because you eat a lot of it and then get a fraction!
"
[Is it too expensive? You can find another store.]
Okay, this was a contemptuous tone and line, and it made me instantly picture a bastard picking his nose while looking at people from the corner of his eye.
I really want to find another company, but now it is a monopoly, so there is another company to look for, and it is a complete monopoly that has been on the pirate ship and cannot retreat! You have already used its system, why don't you want to patch it?
, buy his follow-up services? Various loopholes and viruses will kill you without any negotiation.
"...If you win, what if it's not enough? Can you owe a debt?"
I've almost figured it out, this guy is clearly trying to squeeze out all my points, and it seems he's planning to force me to do some cheating stuff.
【no.】
Hearing this, I was stunned. I didn't expect this girl to refuse. Could it be that it had a rare conscience this time? It really only offered a conscience cost price and could not owe money.
If that's the case, what should I do? I have to give up the method I finally came up with? I'm really unwilling to just use my physical dragon vein to evolve like this!
[You can owe it, but you must pay it back with justice points. But first give me the 2,300 justice points you have on hand to help me put down a deposit for the thing I like.]
Well, I still underestimated the lower limit of a certain shady system. At this moment, I inexplicably thought of some poor men who had been booked by a certain lady before their wages were paid. At this time,
As an upright man, he can probably only raise his head and sigh, and then... lower his head and beg for mercy!
"...You win, but please leave me at least one hundred pocket money. You also know that it is not easy for me to earn some points."
But often at this time, no matter how pitiful you say, your opponent will not let you go so easily.
[Fifty, don’t thank me. Pay the balance within half a year, otherwise it’s your fault.] (To be continued)
