Chapter 338: The World’s First Fort with Unlimited Ammunition
"Holy shit, what's going on with you?"
"It seems...it seems like the mission has been completed." Kristina said with some difficulty.
"Mission?" I looked at Kristina with some confusion. For her, her current mission is to help me explore this place, but she was obviously not doing this before, and she now says that the mission is completed, but our mission is actually not completed, so we can be sure that she is not talking about our mission.
Kristina knew that I didn't know what her mission was, so she wanted to explain. But at this time, I suddenly felt a wind pressure coming from the front, so I quickly kicked the ground and flapped my wings violently. The whole person instantly fell backwards and lifted up, and then we saw a big foot suddenly dropped from in front of us and stepped on the place where we were standing with a bang.
Obviously, those giant Russian players have discovered that Kristina, who was so vigorous just now, suddenly lost her power for unknown reasons. Although it was unclear why Kristina suddenly died, this did not hinder their counterattack, so the giant Russian player at the back turned around and stepped down without hesitation in an attempt to retaliate. Being hunted. However, his good wish is obviously impossible to realize, because although there is something wrong with Kristina, she is still lying in my arms now. If she wants to kill someone in my hands, there will be a price to pay—— And there may not be a reward.
"It seems like now is not a good time to talk." I said, suddenly throwing Kristina back, and shouted at the same time: "You take a rest first, I will talk to you later."
Kristina, who was flying in the air, was accurately caught by a dozen soft tentacles and slowly landed on the ground, and what was listening there was my protective steel claw. Although the magic pets and I have entered the combined mode and cannot be summoned for the time being, my guardian beasts are still there. As a beast tamer, I rarely have a situation where I don't have summoned creatures available.
"Okay, now it's your turn." Without Kristina's interference, I directly locked my eyes on the giant in front of me. The next second, my figure began to skyrocket, and I instantly became the same height as the giant. Then, while the opponent was still dazed, he went up to him and punched him so hard that he fell on his back. Then, before he landed, he pinched his neck, pushed it up hard with his thumb, and twisted it with a click. The guy's neck.
After killing a target in an instant, I immediately took out the eternal hook sickle and rushed towards the other giant Russian players. Although the lethality I showed in front of these guys was not as powerful as Kristina's, it was still one-sided. Gotta crush these guys. The absolute gap in strength cannot be made up by getting bigger. Besides, if they get bigger, so will I. Now they don't actually have any real advantages. With a single digit difference in attribute values, my super fighting ability can be said to require a martial arts master to deal with a bunch of hemiplegic old people. Not to mention chopping melons and vegetables, it’s almost the same.
The group of Russian players who came back originally thought that Kristina would be proud after she fell, but as soon as they came up, they were hit head-on. Seven or eight of them were knocked down by me three times, five times and five times two times.
Buzz. Pulling out the Eternal Hook Sickle horizontally, I shot down the last Russian player who turned into a giant with one shot. I slammed the tail of the gun to the ground and made a loud bang. I glanced around and found out. Now in the entire dungeon, there are only five or six newly created giants staying next to the intact giant-making machine. All the giants in other places are dead.
Since there are not many giants, there is no need to guard the equipment over there that has been moved more than half. I said hello directly. Rhadamantis and Pandora flew directly towards the last piece of equipment over there with me, while Aphrodite stayed to guard the equipment being moved to prevent any accidents.
When the giants over there saw us coming, they all took a step back. Then they realized that their behavior was embarrassing, and they quickly took a step forward and stood in front of the device, obviously planning to make a last-ditch effort. . It's a pity that their behavior can't bring them an improvement in combat effectiveness, so they all lay down on the ground and extricated their corpses after just one encounter. I've said it before. The individual combat power of a giant player is actually not that terrible. It is just more powerful than normal people. What I worry about is only the quantity rather than the quality of a single giant. Therefore, until the opponent does not have an absolute numerical advantage, it will not pose any threat to us at all. threaten.
Although we successfully eliminated the giants in front of us, we didn't gain much benefit. The last piece of equipment suddenly exploded after we killed the last giant. No need to guess, we knew that the other party must have simply destroyed it because they knew they couldn't protect it.
I looked around and saw that there were no giants around. I directly released the combined state. Since I don't have to fight, I don't have to maintain the high-consumption state. After landing on the ground, my legs felt a little weak. Fortunately, my magic pets were around and I was helped up in time. Pandora's box and Radamantis landed next to me, and then asked: "What's going on over there with Kristina?"
I shook my head. "I don't know. I was interrupted by the giant before I could ask, but now it seems that I can ask. In addition, although I also know that there is little hope, I still have to trouble you to search the whole city. Let’s look through it and see if we can find any clues. We can’t give the other side a chance to pull away this time, we must catch the other side’s little tail.”
"Okay, let us take care of this." Pandora replied.
After sending me back to the equipment that was still being moved, Pandora and the three of them dispersed directly to collect clues, while I waited for the skill punishment to pass while listening to Kristina explain to me that she just what happened.
"Actually, I just received a special mission." Kristina said to me slowly after my inquiry.
"Special mission? Skill-based or equipment-based?"
Special tasks actually refer to all tasks except normal tasks. The so-called normal tasks are the kind of tasks that you take the initiative to find. Of course, the most familiar ones are the standing tasks issued by professional unions. Of course, the rewards for that kind of mission are very meager, and only players who are not smart or whose strength is really low will consider that kind of character. Under normal circumstances, most players discover tasks by themselves. The tasks given by the system when players actively seek out tasks are considered normal tasks. Usually the situation of this kind of mission is very normal. It is usually a mission such as running a road, killing something, or investigating information. This kind of mission usually has no time limit, and has a high degree of freedom in completing it. It is the kind of mission that you can’t finish completely. Never mind the task.
Relative to normal tasks. , special tasks are those that come to you on their own initiative. This kind of mission generally does not happen often. Of course, this mainly depends on your luck and the speed of personal strength improvement. Of course, it's mainly luck.
Normally, special tasks are triggered when a person reaches a certain standard. For example, how much experience do you gain continuously within a certain period of time, or do you continuously kill certain monsters during a certain period of time? Anyway, it is because you have done something that has been determined by the system in advance, and then this kind of task will be triggered. certainly. Under normal circumstances, you cannot know about this predetermined task, so it is unlikely that you will deliberately trigger it.
Such a sudden task. The trigger is that the player himself has done something, so the reward for completing this task is usually related to what you did. For this reason, players usually classify special tasks to a certain extent. Of course, this is the player's own classification. The system does not have such a classification. Even special tasks and ordinary tasks are divided by the players themselves, and they are not classified by the system. . No matter what task there is in the system, it is a task, and there are no ordinary or special classifications. The system does classify tasks, but the classification is not based on ordinary and special. Rather, it depends on whether the task has a time limit, whether it is a task that must be completed, and whether there is a failure penalty.
The two situations I asked Kristina are two of the three common tasks in special tasks. The remaining one is attribute-based. However, attribute tasks are usually relatively simple, and Kristina's current situation has obviously produced quite serious sequelae. This shows that the difficulty of this task is very high, so it is unlikely to be an attribute-based task, otherwise Kristina must have obtained some very terrifying attributes.
However, what surprised me was that Kristina actually answered: "It's an attribute-based task. A very scary attribute. A task that allows me to advance directly."
"Advanced mission? How powerful is it?"
"President, please take a look at the combat power list." Kristina suddenly said something irrelevant.
I was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something and quickly opened the combat power list. Then Kristina suddenly activated her elemental elf mode again, but I don’t know whether she canceled it quickly on purpose or because she hadn’t calmed down yet and was so powerful. It couldn't be maintained. In short, her mode was just started and then suddenly interrupted, and even the visual effects were not fully developed. but. Although Kristina's change only happened in an instant, my jaw almost dropped in surprise, because the moment Kristina activated the elemental elf mode just now, I saw Kristina on the combat power list. Stina's ranking suddenly jumped from third to first, and even I was squeezed into the second position.
"Oh my god! What attributes did you just get?"
"King Yuan**." Kristina said slightly excitedly: "It is the advanced version of my elemental elf mode ability that can make me the king of elements. In the past, I only had a super high level with the elemental elf. Affinity. But now I can directly command any element for my use."
"What about the specific performance? Isn't there a detailed introduction to the attributes?"
"Of course there is." Kristina said excitedly: "There are many changes that I haven't sorted out yet, but I know at least some of them now, including such things as further accelerating the recovery speed of magic power and a huge increase in the upper limit of magic power storage. And the power of magic has been greatly enhanced. But what I care about most is not these, but one of the effects, that is..." At this point, Kristina suddenly paused, then smiled brightly, and then said: "Below intermediate level Magic mana consumption is waived.”
"What? But you...but your rainbow magic..."
"Yes, that's right." Kristina said excitedly: "To put it bluntly, my rainbow magic is a composite enhanced magic missile, so all my commonly used magic can actually be regarded as low-level magic. And now, I use low-level magic to It no longer consumes mana, which means that unless I use my ultimate move, I basically have unlimited mana under normal circumstances."
"Oh my god! Are you saying that your world's number one turret has now become an unlimited ammunition version?"
This shocking discovery almost made me bite my tongue. The world's first turret with unlimited ammunition. Doesn't this allow people to live? No wonder Kristina pushed me out of the world's number one spot after activating this mode, because I couldn't compete with her at all. All she had to do was suppress me with a massive amount of magic, and then wait until all my defensive capabilities were exhausted and then wear me to death bit by bit. Of course, this can only be done if I don't run away, and if I plan to run away, she will never be able to stop me. Of course, there will be no fight between Kristina and me. After all, she is one of my right-hand men.
Although I don't have to worry about Kristina's strength, I should be happy. But Kristina's change still made me tremble all over, not from fear but from excitement. This ability is really damn strong.
I was still sighing for Kristina's infinite magic ability, but I didn't expect Kristina to give me a bombshell right after.
"Actually, in addition to the reduction of the mana consumption of low-level magic, the mana consumption of mid-to-high-level magic has also been reduced by more than half. What's more, my low-level magic has truly entered the instant state. There is no preparation time, no cooling time, as long as I want, It can be started instantly. And it can be done one after another without worrying about any cooling time.”
"What? Did your magic have a time limit before?" Because every time Kristina's magic is activated, tens of thousands of magic missiles fly everywhere, so it is difficult for me to find any pause in Kristina. After all, her continuous fire speed is inferior to even the Vulcan Cannon. Who would have thought that her magic would still have a time lag?
Kristina also knew that her magic did not seem to have intervals, so she took the initiative to explain: "Actually, when you saw me firing magic continuously before, it was not because my magic had no cooling time, but because I It’s an elemental spirit. It can use seven channels to cast spells at the same time.”
"Seven channels? What do you mean? Do you have data channels like the remote control model?"
"No, the seven channels I am talking about are seven independent spell-casting channels. Normally, a mage only has one magic channel. After he uses a magic, if he does not want this magic to have an interference effect on himself, he must Wait for the remaining magic power of this magic to dissipate naturally, and this waiting process is called cooling."
"So this is how magic cooling comes about?" This is the first time I heard that magic cooling is due to this reason. A beastly magician like me. The release of magic relies entirely on the assistance of skills, so of course she doesn't know that much, but Kristina is an out-and-out academic and practical person, so her theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge are equally rich.
Kristina smiled and said: "In fact, President, as long as you pay more attention, this situation is easy to find. For example, have you noticed that after releasing a magic. If you use another magic immediately, it will basically Are there no cooling restrictions?"
I nodded and said: "Of course that is. The cooling is just the cooling of the magic that has just been released, and it is not me, the mage, who has entered the cooling state, so of course I can continue to cast spells, but I can't use the magic just now."
Kristina continued: "However, you should have also noticed that when some magic enters the cooldown, it will cause other magic to also enter the cooldown, and the cooling time of these magics that enter the cooldown is not their own cooling. Time, but the cooling time of the magic you just performed."
I thought for a moment and said: "I have noticed this too. I have used a magic called spiritual support before, which can greatly improve the ability of my demon pet to resist the other party's mental attacks, but once this magic is used , will cause another magic called Soul Guardian to also cool down. However, the actual cooling time of that Soul Guardian Magic is only three seconds, but if it enters the cooldown due to this spiritual support, the cooldown time will become eight seconds. And this time is actually the cooling time for the mind to support itself."
Kristina nodded and said: "This is the phenomenon. This is actually because your two magics have a common magic activation circuit, so they share a certain wave sequence. In order to ensure that they do not interfere with each other, they must let They enter the cooldown at the same time, otherwise there will be a conflict when activating any skill. In fact, if the two spells you mentioned are used in reverse, it is the same. If you use the soul guard first, the psychic support will inevitably enter the cooldown, and the time will be It’s Soul Guardian’s cooldown time of 3 seconds, not its own 8 seconds.”
"So I understand. So does your seven channels mean that you can make seven magics run in different channels at the same time? So as long as one channel does not use the same magic continuously, there will be no interference, right?"
"Yes, this is one of the reasons why my magic seems to be bombarding endlessly like a machine cannon. Of course, there are other reasons for my abilities. For example, my plural casting ability and my Magic compression ability is the guarantee that I can become a turret. However, no matter how the seven channels are rotated, there are limits, especially since my magic is concentrated on low-level magic missiles, so the interference is more serious. This This is also the reason why when you see me releasing Rainbow Jet, seven series of magics usually take off together. This is a small means to avoid interference, but it will increase the difficulty of my spellcasting, and if I encounter a player who resists in a certain series, I can’t concentrate on increasing my lethality.”
What Kristina said is easy to understand. The seven magic channels can be said to be equivalent to seven barrels. This is similar to the multi-barreled rotating machine gun, except that the rotating machine gun has multiple barrels firing in turn, and Kristina is more powerful. She is seven Each pipe has its own purpose. It's like seven guns are connected to a bracket and share a common trigger. Although the seven guns can now fire separately, it seems that there is no interval between firing, but this is not the case. The seemingly no separation is actually using seven barrels to simulate an independent barrel without separation. If you look at the speed of one barrel alone, there is indeed no separation, but if you use seven tubes, The gap still exists. And now, if Kristina can really cancel the magic cooling time. That is to say, the continuous fire mode that can only be achieved by the combined force of seven tubes will become seven independent continuous fire barrels. Although the firepower cannot be increased by seven times at once, two or three times should be normal.
With Kristina's magic firing speed, this speed could be doubled or tripled...it's scary just thinking about it. This is basically the Metal Storm of the magical world, right? Completely magical cleansing!
"It's terrible! You are simply invincible now!"
"No, I have enemies. And there are many." Kristina suddenly said: "Although my magic release speed, duration and intensity have been greatly improved, my defense has not changed much, so Someone like the Gunslinger is still my nemesis."
The game "Zero" has never been a game with the strongest type. There is no strongest profession in this game, only relatively strong professions, but even if you use a weaker profession in turn, you will still be a killer in front of certain professions, because it is just like the game logo of "Zero". The attribute system in this game is a circle. It is connected in series with no beginning or end. You can't say which attribute is the strongest or the weakest, because there are always attributes that can restrain this attribute. exist.
Kristina's combat ability is a nightmare for most players, because she can turn you and the area you are hiding into ashes from medium to long distances, whether it is stealth, high agility, high defense, or high attack. It's useless to run into Kristina, because she can use massive magic missiles to saturate you, and it doesn't matter even if she can't see your specific location, because she can cover it with magic, and you will definitely not exceed her range anyway. Strike range. And once you are exposed, you will be greeted by a flood of magic missiles.
However, even if Kristina's magic ability is so strong, she still has weaknesses, because she is a mage, and her defense capabilities are only a magic shield and limited health. Although she can blast most people into pieces before they get close to her, Kristina is also quite dangerous when faced with a being like the Gunslinger who can output super high damage out of sight of most people. Although her protective magic shield can be superimposed, the superposition of magic shields will produce an interference effect. This effect will cause the outer magic shield's defensive power to become weaker and weaker. The final result is that there is actually a limit to the superposition of magic shields. No matter how powerful the magician is, as long as the magic shield you use is not improved, no matter how many layers you add, their ultimate defense will be that much, not even a little bit more. The problem is that the attack power of the Gun God often exceeds the defense limit of these magic shields by a large margin, so even if Kristina is targeted by her, she may only choose to avoid the edge temporarily.
Of course, in terms of attributes alone, Kristina is still stronger than the Gun God, but the Gun God's fighting style just restrains her, but this does not prevent Kristina from ranking in front of the Gun God.
"What you said is indeed a problem, but your progress is indeed very obvious. You can actually push me off the altar. It is really amazing."
Kristina said with some embarrassment: "My skill is a skill after all. Although it lasts for a long time, it cannot be turned on all the time. You still need to exit it, so in addition to the fact that when I activate that skill, your ranking will increase." Still ahead of me.”
"Strong means strong. You don't have to be modest about this. As for your protective power... I will pay attention to it and help you get a protective attribute or equipment as soon as possible. In short, you will no longer worry about the existence of the gun god. At least. Gives you a chance to fight back.”
"I'm not in a hurry about this." Kristina said calmly. "This ability has just been acquired. I haven't studied many things clearly yet."
I nodded and said: "After you go back, go to the training center and quickly familiarize yourself with these new abilities. I have specially approved you to use the highest-end training area for free three times for unlimited time. Oh, by the way, you just hunted down those giant Russian players. Is it because of this attribute of the mission?”
Kristina nodded and said: "Yes. After I killed a Russian player who turned into a giant here, a materialized elemental elf appeared. You know that elemental elves usually do not materialize. But This elemental elf not only appeared physically next to me, but also told me that he is the king of the elemental elf, and because his energy has reached its limit and is about to be reincarnated, he needs someone to take his place."
"So you got his inheritance?"
"No, he said he wanted to pass it on to me, but he needed to test my strength. Then he dispersed his energy and launched it on those Russian players who turned into giants. Every time I killed a Russian player who turned into giants, I would get back a little bit. Energy, after all these giant Russian players are killed, I can get all the energy back, and then the inheritance will be automatically completed. Just now, I suddenly completed the absorption of the last bit of energy and entered the evolutionary state, and as a result, I became weak. !”
"So have you recovered now?"
"Not yet, but it's better than before. I have a countdown here. It will take more than three hours to completely complete the evolution. However, this recovery process is gradual, and it is not a sudden recovery, so starting from now on I will continue to recover and wait until three hours later to reach a complete state."
"It doesn't matter anyway. We will protect you during this period."
As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly heard the beeper ringing. As soon as I opened it, I heard Pandora's voice shouting from inside: "President, we found something. You'd better come and take a look." (To be continued.) .If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
