"Hey... It took another night of meditation, and my mental power has increased so much... The 99899 mental power matrices of the [Abyss Evil Eye Diagram] are still less than half completed...
"
It was already early morning when Raymond came back from his meditation.
He looked at the newspaper delivered to the hotel early in the morning and naturally saw the explosive news.
"Hey, the reward amount has become 15 million quarks... Tsk, it's a pity that I didn't show my face."
Raymond took a casual glance and saw that Jinya's liaison officer, Yoselin, was also wanted. It seemed that the woman was not stupid enough to be caught again.
"The newspaper speculated that it was a Sequence 5 transcendent who did it. Tsk, tsk, but I am still far from being a Sequence 5..."
In fact, it was a coincidence that I was able to kill Braus with one knife yesterday.
If that guy wasn't a squishy legal profession, it probably wouldn't have been so smooth.
What's more, it also took advantage of a sneak attack.
To be precise, there is no absolute level crushing for low-level extraordinary beings below Sequence 5 in the Great Voyage World, but more about professional restraint and ability restraint.
Just because he can kill a Sequence 6 transcendent with one blow does not mean that his current true strength level has reached Sequence 6.
The line of Raymond's combat power is very blurry now. If we have to define an accurate line... it probably means that he can either kill the opponent with one blow, or he can't.
It only takes two swords to kill a tough opponent...
If you can't kill him with three swords, then you must choose to escape. In this case, the opponent's strength must be far greater than yours, or his ability must be restrained.
Unless he encounters an opponent of similar strength, the sharp killing sword skills of the "Jokudou Itto-ryu" will generally not get him into a fight.
The reason why he was able to approach Braus silently and instantly last night, and then quickly escape under the eyes of the other two Sequence 6 masters after killing someone, was because of his full vampire bloodline and [Transposition].
Skill.
【Transformation LVMAX】
Detailed explanation: directional displacement within a range of 1000*1000 meters; skill cooldown 0.3 seconds; required Qi 1-1000, the Qi consumed by continuous use of skills increases by 30% (superimposed); the extraordinary level increases, and the upper limit of movement distance will increase accordingly;
This exclusive movement technique taught by the vampire boss is simply a sneak attack skill, so last night he was able to teleport to Braus from the attic a few hundred meters away and kill him with one knife.
It is estimated that even the vampire boss himself did not expect that Raymond could upgrade this skill to the full level in just two years.
This kind of instantaneous directional displacement skill is simply the nightmare of a legal supernatural being... This is probably ability restraint!
As long as he has enough energy, he can teleport almost infinitely. As long as he doesn't encounter those with control abilities and extraordinary beings with equally strong displacement abilities, below Sequence 5, he can use this escape skill to save his life even if he can't be beaten.
It's a pity that "Qi" is the same as spiritual power, and you can't increase the level by adding points.
Raymond also had a rough estimate of the nature of the system. Skills could be upgraded with points, and attributes related to cultivation had to be slowly accumulated step by step.
And now that he can quickly escape from the MII, his full-level vampire skills are also indispensable.
This special bloodline allows him to not only fight, but also has extremely abnormal defense and recovery abilities, and his physical strength is comparable to that of an ordinary Sequence 7 pure flesh-type transcendent.
[The fourth generation vampire bloodline LvMAX]
Advanced special bloodline
Health recovery 700%
Agility 130
Physical defense 160
Resilience 40
Poison Resistance 50
Strength 95
Transformation: [Demon Form (Second Stage)] All attributes are 40%, injuries can be quickly recovered by sucking blood, and blood of different energy levels can obtain adaptive recovery increased by 170%-1500%;
Detailed explanation: Powerful vampire bloodline, the damage received from Holy Light spells is increased by 320%, and the damage caused by the "demon form" is 100% additional; when traveling during the day, the bloodline amplification attribute is -30%; the bloodline level can be improved through the blood pool of the ancestor of the vampire;
This attribute of the bloodline has a great bonus, and the second stage demon form has been awakened. All attributes have been increased by 10% compared to the first stage, and the blood-sucking recovery ability has been greatly improved.
Vampires originally have three outstanding bloodlines: strength, defense and agility. This extreme agility combined with the [Transformation] skill, coupled with the sharp and fatal sword of the "Jokudou One Sword Style", has really created Raymond's current ultimate fighting line.
.
It only takes one knife to kill!
...
"Hey...it looks like I need to find a better sword."
Raymond stood up and hung the sword on his waist, which had a shiny hilt.
He also lacks a good sword now. The previous [Mihu] was corroded and broken, and now he still uses ordinary iron swords. After two years of killing zombies, the sword has cut off dozens of them.
..
This kind of ordinary iron sword has no effect on low-level opponents and squishy opponents. If you really encounter an opponent who needs defense expertise and wears heavy armor, the difference in weapon performance can determine the outcome.
"I don't know if that guy has found the magic sword of Sodros... He hid it in the place where he saw hell... Gee, what kind of sword is it that can make a peerless swordsman of that level become possessed...
.”
Raymond was really curious too.
The more he learns about swordsmanship, the more he realizes how terrifying a swordsman like Sodros is... to be possessed by a sword, so that weapon must be terrifying in its own way.
place.
Before he could delay any further, he got up and got out of bed.
Because today it’s better to go treasure hunting in Niguel Volcano Islands with Fat Matthew.
"Lulu, what do you want for breakfast?"
Raymond stood up and asked Lulu who was busy not far away.
"I drank nutrient solution, I don't need to eat anymore..."
"...."
Raymond rolled his eyes helplessly and muttered: "You have been drinking nutrient solution for two years, can't you eat something normal people eat?"
At this moment, the luxurious suite of several hundred square meters was filled with various experimental instruments. Lulu was immersed in his experiment and had no intention of turning around to be distracted.
"It's troublesome, a waste of time, and you'll also ingest some other impurities that are harmful to your body. If you just want to supplement the nutrients your body needs, a precisely formulated nutrient solution is definitely the best choice."
This guy Lulu had no interest in food at all, and said: "Captain, next time you come back, remember to help me prepare some more. I don't have much fresh stock."
"oh."
Raymond really had no idea what to do with him, and gave a wry smile. Lulu, this guy, eats and drinks according to an extremely precise plan. It can be said that he is a walking precision instrument. He eats and drinks with an accuracy of grams, and sleeps with an accuracy of seconds.
..He will never taste some cooking food that he thinks is harmful and unprofitable just because of the desire of his tongue.
There is a simple potion operating table not far from Lulu's experimental table. At this moment, a guy with a clown face is refining potion tirelessly.
This is another wonderful use of the Shenmu Puppet developed after Raymond advanced to Sequence 8.
When he took the [Joker] potion in advanced sequence 8, he automatically understood a skill exclusive to the clown potion. A C-level practical skill, he finally mastered it.
[Fight left and right C]
Detailed explanation: You can be distracted and independently control your left and right hands to do different things; this skill is affected by soul strength;
Raymond discovered that his own mental strength allowed him to independently control his own body and the sacred tree puppet.
This feeling is very strange. It's not like controlling two bodies separately, but just controlling one's left and right hands, sharing the senses...
Then, there was the current situation. He sat cross-legged and meditated, and the Shenmu Puppet helped him keep refining medicine, and also exercised his ability to control his mental power.
The puppet is not a physical body, and its movements are much more precise than that of a flesh-and-blood body, and there are no state fluctuations such as body temperature and breathing, so the success rate of refining potions is even much higher than that of Raymond himself.
They need a lot of money to buy ships and equipment, and refining magic potion is one of the shortcuts that Raymond can think of!
In the past two years, the entire puppet has helped Philip refine a large amount of basic magic potions on the island. As long as he finds a suitable channel, he can get a large amount of funds back.
And now he still has an urgent need, to find the advanced potion of Sequence 7! The third Heins notebook just happened... but [Joker]'s subsequent exclusive golden potion formula is also missing. He already knows
In the black game, there is a Golden Sequence 7 potion in the Black Sea, but it doesn’t seem to be suitable for my advancement route.
Prepare some extra money, maybe you can buy it with a reward on some underground black markets.
After all, the Chamber of Commerce is the one with the most comprehensive coverage of the commodity information network, which is better than trying to find a needle in the sea on your own.
"I took the puppet out. It will probably take a week or two before I come back. If you need anything, you can use the phone bug to contact me."
"Okay. Remember, if you find a creature with rare bloodline, bring me a few samples back for experiments..."
"Um."
...
The sun was shining high, and the sky was as clear as a piece of blue and transparent paper. A few thin white clouds were like scattered white cotton, floating slowly in the wind. Occasionally, a few seagulls took off and soared in the sky, "Oh,
"Ou" kept coming.
The wharf in the Brown Bear Territory is full of boats, and the sound of whistles is endless. On the docking bay, hundreds of steam-steel ships of different sizes are spouting white steam from their chimneys. There is an endless stream of ships setting sail and returning.
This lively and prosperous scene has lasted for two years and still has no intention of declining.
"Anna...are you okay? I'm here to save you..."
That beautiful face appears in my mind from time to time,
Raymond was in a good mood. Ever since he learned the news that Anna was still alive yesterday, he had always had a smile on his lips. This feeling of relief was like seeing the sun clearing the clouds, and the whole world became cheerful.
As long as we know that Anna is imprisoned in Tianlan Capital, there is a way to rescue her. Just because Jinya and the others didn't find her doesn't mean that they can't find her.
...
"Hey, Brother Nicholas!"
Raymond was staring at the seabirds in trance, and suddenly he heard someone calling him from behind.
Looking back, it was naturally the four Matthews from last night. Of course, there were more than a dozen mercenary guards behind them wearing chainmail.
Raymond recognized the mercenary emblems on their clothes.
"Wind Wolf Mercenary Group" is a large mercenary group with a good reputation in the Brown Bear Territory.
"Sorry, I got up a little late tonight, so I was delayed for a while." Matthew apologized.
This was the first time he was late for an appointment with someone. If Susanna hadn't been so busy last night and couldn't get up, he wouldn't have stayed so long and done such a rude thing.
"Let me introduce it to you."
Matthew formally introduced Raymond to the person behind him and said loudly: "This is Nicholas, a [polymath] who is proficient in antiquities research and ancient writing."
Raymond smiled noncommittally at everyone. The name "Polymath" also allowed him to instantly construct his new identity.
"Baron Nicholas Zhao Si of the 'Southern Territory of Nadia' says hello to everyone."
As soon as these words were said, Matthew and his sister Elijah looked indifferent, while the rest of the people had more or less contempt in their eyes.
The "Southern Territory of Nadia" is a small territory in a remote corner of Tianlan. It has been caught in the flames of war all year round, and the lords change frequently. The titles there are not valuable, and most of them are small nobles who are self-proclaimed by some local lords. People from these small places,
In the eyes of Wangdu people, he is synonymous with "country bumpkin".
An introduction,
Raymond also met Matthew's hot fiancée Susanna, and the arrogant young man Cook who seemed to be in love with Elijah.
At this moment,
Matthew looked a little confused when he saw Raymond alone.
He looked around and saw that no one was waiting, and then asked: "Brother Nicholas, are you the only one? Didn't you bring any retinue or retainers?"
Early this morning, he specifically asked the leader of the "Wind Wolf Mercenary Group" to verify the situation of the "Black Snake Mercenary Group" and received an astonishingly accurate news. Together with the leader of the Black Snake Group, the master of Sequence 7
Several key members of the group were murdered in a dark alley yesterday afternoon.
The marks on the corpses were easy to identify. All five members of the Black Snake were killed with one knife. Everyone speculated that the perpetrator was a swordsman and must be a high-level transcendent above Sequence 7.
Raymond only has sequence eight, so he is obviously excluded.
Matthew had previously guessed that a swordsman among Raymond's retainers had killed Black Snake's man, and he had some expectations. But now that he came alone, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. There is such a thing as adventure.
, generally nobles will bring powerful retinues to ensure safety. If they don't bring them... then they probably don't have them.
Maybe... I'm overthinking it.
How could a master who could kill a Sequence 7 elite mercenary appear in a small place like "Nadia's Southern Territory" with one sword?
Moreover, he looked at Raymond's slightly shabby dress, and naturally he did not look like a wealthy nobleman who could support high-level retinues.
Probably...this Brother Nicholas is just a poor nobleman who is devoted to academic research.
