The bright red blood kept flowing out from the gaping wound, flowing down the rough skin, and dripping into the dust, which looked extremely shocking.
The continuous blood loss seriously reduced the physical strength of the orc warriors. The pace of pursuing Zhao Xi became heavy and slow, and its violent attacks made it impossible for the wounds to heal on their own. The scars on the shoulders, waist, abdomen and back even expanded.
sign.
In sharp contrast to it, Zhao Xi gradually became familiar with his new body during the battles and fights. His sword-swinging movements became more and more skillful, his pace became smoother and smoother, and his long sword hit his opponent frequently.
Although the attack power of the novice long sword is too low, each effective attack does not cause high damage to the orc warrior, but the cumulative number of times is quite considerable, and the latter is still in a state of continuous blood loss.
Bang!
The huge mace fell weakly to the ground, stirring up a puff of light dust. The half-orc warrior's legs suddenly gave out, unable to support his heavy body anymore, and he suddenly fell to his knees on the ground!
Chance!
Zhao Xi stepped forward without hesitation, thrust the long sword in his hand straight forward, and accurately pierced the left eye of the orc warrior, blowing out the latter's eyeball and penetrating deep into the skull.
-38!
This blow was absolutely fatal. The long sword penetrated half a foot into the head of the orc warrior!
The Orc warrior suddenly howled and collapsed to the ground as if his muscles and bones had been taken away.
System prompt: Successfully kill the Orc warrior, mission experience value +50!
The light representing upgrading instantly appeared at Zhao Xi's feet. With the experience gained from killing the orc warriors, he was upgraded from level 1 to level 2!
It’s not easy!
Zhao Xi, who had returned to full status, had the urge to burst into tears. He really tried his best to capture this Orc warrior.
During the battle, I almost lost my life several times, but I relied on my reflexes to survive.
Of course, the taste of victory is also wonderful. The upgrade from level 1 to level 2 gave him 5 free attribute points and 1 skill point.
But that's not the point. The point is another system prompt!
System prompt: Upgrade successful, please choose to activate a skill or piece of equipment!
The skill panel and equipment control panel pop up in the system view at the same time.
Seeing this system prompt, Zhao Xi suddenly became energetic.
After all, it is in a big plot mission. As a mission player, he obviously has privileges. Looking at this system prompt, it should be that every time he levels up, he can activate a skill or equipment.
Without thinking, he chose the most important equipment to him - the Blade of Destiny.
System prompt: Insufficient conditions for activation of Blade of Destiny. Please choose again!
"Holy shit!"
Zhao Xi couldn't help but curse. This is like picking up a beautiful girl and going to a hotel to book a room. After getting into bed, you take off your pants, only to find out that the girl is actually a transvestite. It makes you speechless and makes you vomit three liters of blood!
As a straight man, Zhao Xi could only give up the Blade of Destiny, but he still continued to choose other equipment - the Shield of Destiny, the Ring of the God of War, the Ring of Glory...
System prompt: Insufficient conditions for activation of Shield of Destiny. Please choose again!
System prompt: The activation conditions for the Ring of the God of War (left) are insufficient, please choose again!
System prompt: The activation conditions for the Ring of Glory are insufficient, please choose again!
Well, Zhao Xi gave up the idea of activating any piece of equipment and set his sights on his own skills.
He does not have a single skill now. Choosing the first skill is undoubtedly very important, as it will affect his future survival and development in the plane of destiny.
Zhao Xi tried to activate the secret skill of reincarnation of destiny, but was rejected by the system coldly.
He judged that his current level was too low, and the equipment and skills he chose were too advanced, so the activation failed. I'm afraid the only thing that could succeed was ordinary professional skills.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xi chose holy healing.
When I first arrived, my equipment level was perfect. If I wanted to survive in this absolutely cruel world, I couldn't just rely on fighting. If I could heal myself, my chances of survival would undoubtedly be greatly improved.
But this time, he succeeded, and the holy healing technique was activated, and it was still at the original skill level in the main plane.
Holy healing (advanced), a sacred skill, consumes 3 points of holy power per second to restore 30 points of HP, lasts for 10 seconds, and has a skill cooldown of 15 seconds.
Zhao Xi invested two precious skill points in this basic skill of the Paladin, upgrading it to a high level. A complete blessing can restore 500 HP points. Although it takes a long time, the healing effect can be as good as
Potions stack, so they are very practical.
Moreover, after activating the holy healing technique, his attributes have increased the holy power value, and he has 20 points of holy power. According to the consumption ratio, he can almost fill up his blood twice.
As for the 5 free attribute points, Zhao Xi devoted all of them to agility.
His combat effectiveness is closely related to his speed. Without speed, he cannot exert his strength. Now that he has mastered the holy healing technique, his life is basically guaranteed. Improving his combat effectiveness is undoubtedly the best choice.
Roar! Roar!
Just when Zhao Xi had just finished adding points, Zhao Xi suddenly heard a roar coming from behind him.
Two orc warriors appeared behind him without knowing when, waving their weapons, they charged at him fiercely!
Oops!
Zhao Xi found that he was a little careless. If he was fully equipped before, he wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by twice as many high-level monsters, but now he is just a newcomer who has just upgraded to a level.
It was absolutely impossible to resist forcefully. He had no choice but to run away. He was extremely lucky to have added 5 points of agility. Thinking about it, he should be able to outrun the clumsy Orc warriors.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At the critical moment, suddenly two sharp arrows shot towards him one after the other!
Phew! Phew!
The arrow passed over Zhao Xi's head and hit the two Orc warriors who were chasing him with great accuracy!
Then Zhao Xi saw a hundred meters ahead, a group of cavalry running around the low mounds towards his position. The leading knight was holding a bow in his hand.
Reinforcements are coming?
Zhao Xi couldn't help but look back and found that two orc warriors were shot in the throat by feather arrows and died on the spot, showing extremely superb archery skills.
The hoofs of the horses roared, and in a blink of an eye, the cavalry team rushed in front of Zhao Xi, numbering almost thirty.
The knight who shot the orc warrior held the reins with one hand and asked: "Warrior, what happened here?"
Zhao Xi was surprised to find that the leader knight was actually a woman, with snow-skinned blue eyes and beautiful appearance. Her dark silver armor made her look heroic. She held a riding bow in her hand and a long sword hung on the saddle.
Her voice was clear and sweet, sounding like a nightingale singing.
Seeing Zhao Xi's hesitation, a young knight following her shouted loudly: "Untouchable, the noble Baron Gloria is asking you a question! Why don't you kneel down and answer!"
Zhao Xi frowned immediately.
Although it is said that in plot missions, the more he follows the plot settings, the better, but it is absolutely impossible for him to kneel down to the guy who insulted him.
"Andre, he is a brave warrior!"
The female knight stopped the young knight, turned over and jumped off the horse lightly, walked up to Zhao Xi and said: "I am Gloria from the Rock Castle. I have no ill intentions, I just want to know what happened here."
Zhao Xi's heart moved, and he immediately bowed and saluted: "Dear Lord Viscount, we are from Locke Fortress and were ordered to escort a batch of food supplies to the Rock Castle. Unexpectedly, we were ambushed by orcs here, and all my teammates died in the battle.
Yes, there are also carriages..."
There were burning carriages everywhere nearby, and all the baggage and supplies had been burned by the orc army. Even the knights could clearly see this without Zhao Ximing's explanation.
Gloria looked around, looking a little sad: "We have received the news, but we didn't expect it to be too late."
She shook her head and asked: "Soldier, your companions have all been sacrificed. Are you willing to join our giant rock castle to resist the demons together?"
