Chapter 18 The Piper and Ascension ~ Ask for a Monthly Pass~)
After getting quite a bit of information, Jason did not refuse Peters' inquiry.
"explain."
Jason said.
"Are you from Bear Tower?"
Peters has always suspected that Jason was from Bear Tower.
That desperate fighting style is really deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Peters couldn't think of anything else besides the Bear Tower.
"no."
Jason replied affirmatively.
If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not.
Faced with the facts, any lies are meaningless.
Just facing Jason's affirmative answer, a look of understanding appeared on Peters' face.
Different from his simple hiding of identity, since Jason has infiltrated into Jie Danlun's "Griffin Camp", he naturally has more important things and will definitely not admit his identity as "Bear Tower".
Moreover, Jason should have confirmed his identity as a "Cat Cave" the moment he saw him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to show the ‘Bear Tower’ fighting style in front of him in the future.
Doing this not only informs me of my identity, but also reminds me!
But I still asked stupidly.
It's really inappropriate.
It is indeed the seed left behind by the ‘Bear Tower’.
Much better than the hasty heir like me!
Thinking of this, Peters couldn't help but admire in his heart when looking at Jason who always kept an expressionless face. Then, the 'Cat Cave' swordsman nodded: "Well, I understand."
clear?
What do you unserstand?
Jason looked at Peters who looked solemn in confusion.
But Peters continued to ask.
"How much do you know about the 'piper'?"
"I don't understand."
Jason shook his head.
It is also a fact, so there is no need to hide it.
Peters was stunned.
Then, more admiration appeared on his face.
He has already thought about why the 'Bear Tower' did this. A person who is familiar with secrets and a person who knows nothing about secrets, who is more suitable to enter the 'Gryphon Camp'?
There is no doubt that it is the latter.
Only if it is truly like a blank slate can there be no flaws in the investigation.
The person who made this plan should be the elder of the ‘Bear Tower’, right?
Only those ‘Bear Tower’ elders who have survived countless battles have such simple and honest wisdom.
Of course, the selected executors are also good enough.
The foundation is to be tall and strong.
Tough character is an advanced step.
But the virtue of not fearing death is the ultimate and most rare thing.
Subconsciously recalling the way Jason still charged forward in Tower when faced with a being so powerful that he could crush him, Peters' deep admiration for the elder of the 'Bear Tower' grew even higher.
Because, he never thought that the first 'Bear Tower' that was 'destroyed' by artillery fire had already sown the seeds of recovery under the arrangement of his elders.
Moreover, this seed did far better than imagined.
And he, the heir to the 'Cat Cave', became even more unqualified after comparison.
Do I really want to go into seclusion completely after going to the 'Hans' harbor?
For a moment, Peters was shaken.
However, his words continued.
"The 'Piper' is the only master recognized by all schools in the past hundred years."
"He was born in the 'Snake Cave' and combined the 'snake hissing' technique with the flute to create a new special technique."
"Then, in the Battle of Emerton fifty years ago, with one enemy against ten thousand, the musketeers formed by the Archduke Emerton were completely defeated, and the Principality of Emerton ceased to exist."
"It was also because of that battle that the school's reputation reached an unprecedented height."
"Can……"
"That was the final glory."
"Like a flash in the pan, in less than thirty years, gunpowder weapons have undergone earth-shaking improvements, and the addition of the 'Gryphon' has given the original nobles the support of the 'Secret Technique'."
"The Second Battle of Emerton has begun."
"This time, the descendants of the 'Grand Duke Emerton' won."
"Although it was a tragic victory, 'Pied Piper', who represents the backbone of the genre, failed."
"Everyone thought the Piper was dead."
"But just now..."
"He appears again."
"With that beautiful but deadly melody."
After Peters finished speaking, he fell silent again.
The swordsman of the 'Cat Cave' was thinking about what changes the returning 'Piper' would bring to the entire federation.
Jason was also thinking.
However, what Jason was thinking about was what the 'piper' would do next.
The other party chose to kidnap all of Taor's people, which was both a deterrent and a threat.
A person who owns an entire city as a hostage, what does the other party want?
still……
Attract the attention of the Griffin Federation, and then attack other places to gain more chips?
Unconsciously, Jason thought of the latter.
With the ability shown by the 'piper', it is completely possible to do the latter.
As for whether the 'piper' came back from the dead, or was someone pretending to be him?
Jason didn't care.
Because, whether he is resurrected from the dead or someone is pretending to be someone, the other party has the ability of the ‘piper’!
Having this is enough.
Whether the other party is true or false, he will always be the ‘piper’.
and!
Full of hostility towards him!
Jason was very sure that if the other party encountered him again, they would take action without hesitation.
After all, sugar isn't that tasty.
In addition, before, he sabotaged the opponent's plan.
Both sides are really fighting to the death.
"pity……"
"The speed of dispensing sugar is still a bit slow."
"If he had gone faster, he would have had no chance to escape."
Jason sighed inwardly.
However, he then shook his head mockingly.
If the 'speed of giving out candy' has become faster, it must be that his connection with that strange existence has become closer.
And this is definitely not what he wants to see.
Perhaps a short period of 'borrowing power' would allow him to accomplish more things.
But in the long run, it is definitely detrimental.
People must rely on themselves!
Jason reminded himself in his heart. At the same time, after scanning the remaining 12 points of satiety and 3 points of food excitement, he looked at his skill bar.
With a strong enemy on his side, Jason instinctively wanted to strengthen himself.
As for increasing satiety, you don’t have to rely on yourself?
I use the food I eat to strengthen myself, so why doesn’t it count as my own?
At most, it's just that you can learn faster.
His eyes swept over [Gunpowder Weapons and Light Weapons] [Hand-Hand Combat] [Protection from Evil] [Kirikaku] [Flash Technique] [Tufuyu (Passive)].
[Kirigakure] [Flash Technique] [Tu Fu Yu (Passive)] has been temporarily abandoned.
[Flash Technique] A little bit is enough.
[Kirigakure] is similar.
[Pifuyu (Passive)] After reaching the mastery level, it is enough without returning to 'Lord'.
Then, [gunpowder weapons and light weapons] were also temporarily abandoned.
It's not that this skill is bad, but it requires too much weapons. If Jason had an unrestricted weapon in his hand, he would definitely choose this skill, which can directly improve his strength.
After excluding the above skills, only [Unarmed Combat] and [Protection from Evil] are left.
Then Jason’s favorite [Protection from Evil] was also eliminated.
It's very simple, I'm not full enough.
And to accumulate satiety?
This is what Jason would have done if there had been no "piper" and no "revival meeting".
But now he chooses to improve [Unarmed Combat].
Maybe it can only improve a little strength.
But a little adds up to a lot.
Quantitative changes always lead to qualitative changes.
He can't always rely on "immortality" to be reckless.
Even if you have been relying on ‘immortality’ to be reckless, it would be great to become stronger and be more reckless.
[Yes/No, it consumes 6 points of satiety and 1 point of food excitement to upgrade unarmed combat to expert level?]
