Chapter 2421: The Path of the Holy Knight

The warm and bright holy light illuminated the snow-capped mountains and dispelled the haze in everyone's hearts. Duran's broad back supported by heavy armor instantly became a wall, a wall that distinguished safety from danger. On the other side of the wall was General Dong's sharp sword, and on this side of the wall was the breathing place of twelve lives.

Who is this knight and why is he here? Although they didn't know the other party's identity, they knew in an instant that this knight was their savior.

Boom, Holy Light Judgment, the holy light that rushed into the sky turned a corner and fell, hitting General Dong's body, and the wind and snow were calmed.

"So strong!" The adventurers behind him were dumbfounded. The enemy who made them give up hope of survival was destroyed just like that? General Dong was one of the strongest monsters around the Novice Village. I didn't expect that the other party would solve it with one blow. This knight is really amazing.

Everything returned to calm, and everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, so that this winter would not be too cold.

"Thank you, may I ask what your name is?" A middle-aged adventurer came out and asked.

"Paladin Duran." Duran said.

I have never heard of this profession. Adventurers in this world are a bit like game characters. When applying for an adventurer's work permit at the Adventurer's Guild, various attributes will be detected, and then adventurers can choose a profession according to their attributes to determine the skills they need to add points.

In fact, adventurers did not have a so-called profession at the beginning. It was only after upgrading different skills according to different skill points that they gradually became more refined, and professions such as swordsman, knight, magician, thief, archer, and priest appeared.

These can be seen on the card of the adventurer's work permit. There are optional skills for each upgrade, and you can also see your ability value.

Crusader, dragon knight, lance knight, immovable knight... The middle-aged man thought about it and didn't think of such a paladin profession, but it might be possible that they created a new knight profession because of their special skills. After all, although everyone was an adventurer at the beginning, later with the development of the level and the different points added, many strange professional branches will be derived.

"My name is Ari, and I'm the leader of this snowman crusade." The middle-aged man introduced himself: "Where are you from and where are you going?"

"I'm going to Axel."

"That's perfect, we're all from Axel." Axel is the novice village.

Although it's called a novice village, Axel is actually quite lively, and there are many dangerous undeveloped areas around it, and there are many high-level commissions, so there are also some high-level adventurers who stay here to accept these dangerous commissions and dig new dungeons.

On the way, young adventurers curiously asked Duran how to be as powerful as him, asking how to add points and how to learn skills.

Killing monsters has experience points. No matter what means you use to kill monsters, part of the monster's soul will enter the hunter's body. When it accumulates to a certain level, you can practice new skills, that is, upgrade and get skill points.

In other words, adventurers can only become stronger by killing monsters, and muscle training is not very effective. And because everyone has different talents, physical strength, wisdom, speed, luck and other values ​​are different, and the skills they choose are also different. Of course, if you have low intelligence and still want to choose magic skills, it is also possible, but the power is limited.

Adding points is a free choice, but because of freedom, you need to be more cautious. In reality, there is no props to reset points, and you cannot regret it if you add the wrong points. Therefore, the experience of adding points is a precious wealth in this world. Generally speaking, it is passed on by word of mouth and controlled by the strong.

The point-adding schemes that the public can understand are those public common schemes, but even common ones are better than adding points randomly and taking risks. Because adding points randomly may be useless, and then you can only start your life over again.

Duran is so powerful that he must have a special point-adding scheme. If he is willing to show it, everyone will definitely benefit a lot, especially the knights in the team are eager to change their jobs to become paladins.

"It's easy to become a Paladin. As long as you have a heart of justice like me and the determination to drive away darkness and spread light, everyone can become a Paladin."

"We have it, but we don't know how to add points." "Knights should have the determination to protect their companions and the courage to face monsters, but our points are only in defense and swordsmanship skills, without holy light."

In fact, Duran has discovered that knights in this other world rarely carry shields. It is probably because of the branch of the Island God Association. Because the weapons of the island country are all two-handed, samurai swords and spears are more powerful when held with two hands, so the issue of shields is rarely considered.

The knights in the other world all face the enemy with two-handed swords, and rarely carry shields for defense.

In the cold weapon battles of the island country, there is basically no large-scale confrontation between the two armies, and there is no need for shield soldiers to form fortifications on the field battlefield.

If there are more people, they would rather use local materials to build a simple defense circle and use bundles of bamboo as walls to resist enemy bows and arrows. Or they would have a half-height wooden board placed on the ground as a cover, and people would squat behind the board. The board was fixed to the ground and could not be moved by hand.

Then it was a close combat, and no one had a shield, so they just chopped.

With this habit, the island country's gods branch naturally followed the habit when creating this alien world, and there were no skills involving shields.

The so-called defensive knight is to increase the sturdiness of the armor and body, not to use a shield.

In the world of "Shield Hero", the brave who uses a shield has even become an alien. However, in the virtual game setting of "Because I'm Afraid of Pain, All Points of Defense", a shield appears, which is more in line with the Western fantasy worldview.

"You haven't put on heavy armor yet, so you still have to bring a shield. It doesn't have to be too big, a round shield will do. Then replace the sword with a one-handed hammer." Duran said that the hammer is standard for being a paladin.

"Shield?" Everyone looked at each other, because few adventurers would bring a shield, not to mention that the ultimate knight wears heavy armor. Isn't it redundant to bring a shield and wear heavy armor? And carrying a shield also affects the attack power. How can you attract the hatred of monsters without attack power?

They really forgot that adventurers don't have the money to wear heavy armor at the beginning. For example, among these twelve adventurers, four knights are all wearing leather armor, mail armor and plate armor, and none of them is full-body plate armor. Moreover, the existing plate armor is all the cheapest parts such as shoulders and arms, which shows that plate armor is not something that can be easily purchased.

"But as far as I know, there are few shield skills, and the shield is not very useful." Equipment without coordinated skills is useless.

"First of all, heavy armor costs money, and shields save money. Secondly, even if there is no shield skill, the shield can still increase defense. As for what you said about insufficient attack power and inability to hold hatred, it is also because your team is not well coordinated. You can give the knight more time to build hatred, and then output." Duran shared his previous experience of playing online games with them.

"But if only the knight goes up at the beginning, the knight is not very dangerous? Without the priest to restore the knight's physical strength, the knight can't support it for long." Ari is also experienced.

"So the paladin has to restore himself. He can carry, fight and restore. The paladin is omnipotent." Duran said handsomely.

Awesome, too awesome, but how much experience points does it take? It is impossible to accumulate enough experience points by killing small monsters. At least you have to kill high-level monsters.

Moreover, the stronger you are, the slower you upgrade, while the weaker you are, the faster you upgrade. To increase all skills, you don't have enough skill points, unless you really use money to pile up. You can also increase skill points by taking expensive skill potions, but this is not something that ordinary people can afford.

How did this man manage to be able to fight, heal, and take a lot of things? Everyone was full of questions, because Duran was too mysterious, which completely violated their understanding of the adventurer profession.
