Chapter 179 The second-tier racial talent is unlocked again
In the end, Aletheia still didn't tell Lu Xiao what she planned to do with these high-end equipment.
Lu Xiao specifically confirmed with the system that the equipment that already belonged to him, and even the consciousness attached to the equipment, would not betray him. Lu Xiao, who was confused for the time being, simply didn't bother to care anymore.
Suddenly becoming a rich man (?) who no longer needs to work hard, Lu Xiao has no real sense of this and is still squatting in her rental house and living the same life as before.
Anyway, he won't stay in the main world for too long, as long as he has enough money.
Even though Aletheia repeatedly emphasized that there would be no problem, Lu Xiao was still worried that the flow of a large amount of financial data from unknown sources would trigger an investigation from above, which would implicate her parents who were doing their jobs.
Ever since the confrontation with Aletheia that day, Yongzhen has been asking about Lu Xiao's parents in a indirect way in recent days.
Lu Xiao was not stupid, he quickly understood Yongzhen's intentions, but before Yongzhen could fully adapt to this world, he chose to pretend to be stupid for the time being.
Although Yongzhen has been working hard to adapt to the new world, her behavior is still incompatible with modern society, and it will take some time to refine it.
While helping Yongzhen integrate into the new world, Lu Xiao summoned Consus through self-mutilation and asked him about Aletheia's true intentions.
"I think she wants to put together a laboratory."
After breaking away from the shroud, Consus subconsciously stroked his white beard: "The crisis of destruction in her home world has been lifted. Aletheia's sense of mission has finally been liberated. She can do things according to her own preferences."
"Based on the specifications of the parts she secretly ordered, she probably wanted to set up a laboratory with the most cutting-edge contemporary equipment to conduct scientific research according to her own interests."
"laboratory……"
Lu Xiao touched her chin thoughtfully: "What type? Scientific research is also divided into many fields. Which area did she specialize in in the Isu civilization?"
"I don't know about this."
Consus shrugged and said: "Long before Aletheia became active, I was trapped in the shroud and could not escape."
"But based on the faction she inherited, it should be related to Hephaestus."
Hephaestus is the most famous "blacksmith" in the Isu civilization. Each of the twelve Isu holy swords he created has unparalleled power. Unfortunately, only Lu Xiao is widely circulated in the Assassin's Creed world.
I have these two.
'Blacksmith?'
Putting this matter in his mind for the time being, Lu Xiao finally regained his relaxation mood when he saw that the announcement time of the next world was approaching, leaving Yongzhen to continue studying in front of the computer, and returned to the room alone to start sorting out the harvest of Sekiro World.
"System, settle all mission gains in Sekiro World."
"Yes, the side mission - Guard Ashina has been settled, and the mission completion rate is 93%."
"The host has experienced three worlds. The system determines that the host's skill combination has basically taken shape. What needs to be done next is to integrate various skills and improve the levels of diverse skills."
"However, according to the rules, the system will not force the host to follow the suggestions, and will give the host the right to make independent choices in future task rewards."
"The host can choose to continue to obtain new skills and props through the roulette lottery, or they can convert them into skill points and attribute points according to the lottery level, which is left to the host's discretion."
"oh?"
Lu Xiao subconsciously rubbed his chin and lowered his head and muttered: "It is true that my current skill types are quite complicated. What I need to do next is to eliminate the unnecessary and retain the essential, and integrate a set of fighting styles that best suits me."
"In this case, the investment in skill points and attribute points must be planned, and a relatively large number of points will be needed to further enhance the strength."
After thinking for a while, Lu Xiao said to the system: "First settle the mission rewards and focus on obtaining skill points and attribute points."
"Understood, rewards will be distributed."
"Guard Ashina: The A-level lottery is converted into 6 free skill points, and the task itself rewards 5 free attribute points."
"The world mission is settled and completed perfectly."
"Reward 10 free skill points and 8 free attribute points."
"World mission three is completed. The dragon's essence and blood obtained by the host will be further purified and transformed. The dragon's blood perfectly matches the host's physique. Please take it as soon as possible to obtain new racial talents."
Including the basic reward given when World Mission 3 is completed, Lu Xiao's skill points have reached an unprecedented 27 points, and his attribute points have also reached a double-digit 13 points.
But even though 27 points seems to be a lot, it is still a drop in the bucket when applied to the many skills Lu Xiao possesses.
"System, open the properties panel."

Dragon Essence and Blood (Epic): Drink me!
…
Lu Xiao's various attributes have been improved to varying degrees through independent training.
But what he gained most in the Sekiro world was not just the rare-quality countermeasure item Immortal Slash, but the improvement of what he lacked most before - exquisite combat skills.
The skill levels of Weiming Ryu, Tomoe Ryu and Xianfeng Ryu are still relatively low, but the inspiration they brought to perfect Lu Xiao's fighting style is the most important.
"It's a pity that I didn't enter a high-level martial arts world, otherwise I should have been able to get better training in combat skills."
After thinking for a while, Lu Xiao took out the dragon essence and blood and shook the blood bottle with a faint cherry blossom color in his hand.
"Gan! Just drink it!"
Making up his mind, Lu Xiao opened the bottle cap and poured the slightly viscous dragon's blood into his mouth at once. The strong fishy smell that hit his forehead made him roll his eyes while drinking the dragon's blood.
"Ha~ha~"
After finally drinking the entire bottle of Dragon Essence and Blood, Lu Xiao had no time to wipe the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth when something abnormal happened in his body.
"Well!"
The sudden rise in body temperature made Lu Xiao subconsciously grab his chest with his hands. His skin gradually turned red, and the breath he exhaled from his mouth condensed into white mist.
In order to avoid arousing Yongzhen's worries and the angry scolding of his neighbors, Lu Xiao tried his best to suppress his cries of pain and relied on willpower to survive the difficult period when the blood in his body was boiling.
"Huh~"
When Lu Xiao's body temperature finally returned to normal, his body was soaked with sweat.
“It’s so painful even though it perfectly suits my physique?”
System: "This is the necessary experience to purify blood."
Lu Xiao sat on the bed and shook his arms. He was still a little unaccustomed to the sudden increase in strength.
Without using attribute points, Lu Xiao's four-dimensional attributes have increased.
Strength increased the most, from 22 points to 26 points, agility increased by 3 points to 31, and constitution and spirit increased to 22 and 24 respectively.
Lu Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I originally planned to use the attribute points all at once, but now it seems that it is better to take it slow, at least to get familiar with the sudden increase in physical fitness."
System: "The second level of racial talent is unlocked."
"The host's bloodline contains the recessive gene of the Eastern Dragon, which is officially activated under the catalysis of the dragon's essence and blood."
"The Eastern Dragon soars high in the nine heavens and has the innate ability to control wind and rain."
"Dragonborn's special talent: moving clouds and making rain (pseudo)"
"The host who activates the dragon bloodline can inherit the dragon's talents to a certain extent, gain the ability to control wind and rain within a small area, and automatically gain B-level lightning resistance and C-level freezing resistance."
"Do clouds make rain?"
Lu Xiao looked out the window at the clear night sky and subconsciously used the Dragonborn's innate ability.
Within about 500 meters, large rain clouds suddenly began to gather in the sky, and lightning flashes could be seen among the clouds. Within a minute, it began to rain heavily.
"Damn it! Why did the rain come so suddenly!"
"What the hell is the weather forecast! It's sunny for three days in a row? Hurry up and put away your clothes!"
Neighbors upstairs and downstairs hurriedly collected their laundry from the window, while cursing and complaining about the often inaccurate weather forecast.
Lu Xiao withdrew his thoughts, and the heavy rain that had fallen for less than five minutes immediately stopped, and the thick clouds in the sky gradually dispersed.
"Interesting, the innate ability to change local weather may play an unexpected role in some specific situations."
