Chapter 124 [Original Sin Path] The second-level hidden profession! (7,000 words, please subscribe)
The night wind was mixed with sand and blew quietly, and the stubborn "firefly" burned out its last life until it dimmed and ended.
Just as the evil dragon transformed from a former boy was finally slaughtered by a brand new boy.
The unparalleled hunter, in the end, also died at the hands of the prey he was preparing to hunt, and the prey became a brand new "unparalleled hunter".
After a long while, Ryan, who had recovered some physical strength under the nourishment of the upgraded warm current, stood up with the big sword.
Looking at the giant monster that died under the moonlight in front of him, his eyes were full of sighs.
In this battle, Ryan used all his skills, but he was still no match for the [upper] Thunder Dragon. If it weren't for Dayin's help at the last moment, he would have died under the violent red lightning after slashing the last sword.
Turning his head, he looked towards the direction of the oasis lake, where a familiar silver head was emerging from the lake. Noticing Ryan's gaze, the silver, who had grown even bigger after not seeing him for a while, excitedly slapped the lake surface with his fins on both sides, splashing a lot of water.
Ryan smiled slightly and waved vigorously at the silver.
Then, he came to the corpse of the [upper] Thunder Dragon and picked up a lightning bug emitting a silver glow.
——
[Loot: Super Electric Lightning Bug]: Silver-level trophy, the source of the [upper] Thunder Dragon's power. Unlike ordinary discharge monsters, the power of Thunder Dragon comes from their ability to control lightning bugs like "insect messengers". Attached special skill [Liberation of Power lv.2]: After entering the "severely injured" state, the ability value is improved (critical rate +20%, physical consumption reduced by 30%).
——
Looking at the introduction of the new trophy in front of him, Ryan was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were filled with ecstasy.
When he was fighting the [Upper] Thunder Dragon just now, he was still thinking that it would be great if he had a low-health burst skill like "Red Flame Rage". Unexpectedly, this time, his wish came true!
Special skill [Power Release], when "severely injured", the critical rate is greatly increased, and the physical consumption is greatly reduced.
Speaking of critical rate, Ryan is a little regretful. In the previous battle with the [Upper] Thunder Dragon, he did not trigger it once. Of course, this is not surprising. After all, the permanent critical rate brought by [Flaw lv.2] is only 10%, and he only swung 6 swords in total during the battle with the [Upper] Thunder Dragon.
The critical rate is still too low.
But with [Power Release], everything will be very different.
20% critical rate, 30% physical consumption reduction, so that every time he swings the sword, there is a 30% chance to trigger double damage!
As for the prefix "severely injured" condition, this is not a problem for Ryan at all.
Normal blood loss is at most a minor injury, but a large amount of blood loss is undoubtedly a serious injury, and blood loss is undoubtedly commonplace for Ryan.
Even in his prime, he only needs to summon a "blood core" and then consume his own blood to replenish his "blood energy", and soon he can fall into a "severely injured" state of excessive blood loss.
Thinking of this, inexplicably, there is a little sadness...
In the battle with the [upper] Thunder Dragon, Ryan was in a "severely injured" state at the last moment.
Therefore, the special skill [Power Release] is a perfect match for Ryan!
It can be said that with [Loot: Super Electric Lightning Bug], Ryan's chance of turning the tide will be greatly increased: the enemies fighting with him will be horrified to find that this guy, the more "blood is left", the stronger his combat power!
"Very good, from now on, the state of 'Power Release' will be called my 'second stage'."
According to the conventional setting, a boss with a good appearance must have more than one stage!
Ryan also took a solid and powerful step on the road to becoming a big boss.
After checking the attributes of the spoils, Ryan turned his eyes to the panel. After defeating the [Upper] Thunder Dragon, his level was raised again.
——
[Level]: 13 (88%) → 14 (34%)
[Spiritual Value]: 272635 → 422635
[Spirituality]: 7.5
[Physical Fitness]: 76.69 → 98.65
——
Powerful!
Incomparably powerful!
With a physical fitness that is nearly 100 times that of an ordinary person, Ryan feels like he can blow everything up.
Of course, he understands that this is just an illusion caused by his [physical fitness] growing too fast and being unable to fully control it for a while.
But there is no doubt that with a physical fitness that is 100 times that of the original body, it would be no problem to defeat a fourth-level professional. As for whether it can defeat a fifth-level legend, it is hard to say.
After all, Ryan has not witnessed the power of a fifth-level legend with his own eyes, so he cannot make a comparison.
Looking at the [Spirituality] on the panel, which is not even one-tenth of [Physical Strength], Ryan's eyes showed a thoughtful look - although there is no necessary connection between physical strength and spirituality, he still thinks that it is better not to have too big a difference between the two.
Fortunately, he is not without the means to improve [Spirituality].
Looking at the body of the [Upper] Thunder Dragon in front of him, Ryan's mouth slightly grinned.
I wonder what the steak will taste like when grilled after "electrotherapy"?
Of course, before tasting "joy", you still need to collect some materials.
After a while, Ryan, who had finished his work, used his space ring to carry back and forth, and transported the large parts of the flesh and blood of the [Upper] Thunder Dragon to the side of the oasis lake. Looking at Dayin, who was already impatient, he smiled and said:
"Eat, eat, these are all prepared for you."
Dayin was so happy to hear this that he patted the water surface, and soon jumped out and lay on the shore to eat heartily.
The flesh and blood of the [Upper] Thunder Dragon is very large and rich in nutrients. Even Dayin can hardly finish it in a short time.
While Dayin was eating, Ryan built a campfire grill next to it, and while grilling the "Thunder Dragon Steak", he observed Dayin's changes.
Dayin, illuminated by the moonlight and the campfire, was more than 20 meters long, which was greatly increased compared to the last time they parted.
What changed more than the body size was the lines on Dayin's body surface. The red lines on its body were originally irregular grids, but now they have become radial lines that are evenly divided around the fins on both sides. The concentrated end of these radial red lines is at the mouth of Dayin. It seems that this is a body evolution to strengthen the breath?
Ryan's guess is not without basis.
The [Upper] Thunder Dragon in the "Red Lightning State" is undoubtedly powerful, but Dayin can knock it down with a breath. Although there is a suspicion of sneak attack, if it does not have enough power, it is absolutely impossible to do this.
If it were Dayin before, it would not be able to do this.
"Red Yao Evolution" is not the end, but more like a new starting point. What is the direction of its final evolution? It seems to be closely related to the wishes and opportunities of the evolved body?
The "crackling" bonfire illuminated Ryan's eyes.
After a moment, he chuckled.
No matter what the "Red Yao Evolution" is, at least for now, it is not a bad thing, so it's good.
Put the roasted "Thunder Dragon Steak" into your mouth, and in an instant, the delicious taste fills your taste buds.
"Thunder Dragon Steak", as the name suggests, has a natural spicy taste when you eat it, which seems to be related to the electric charge in the flesh and blood that has not completely faded, making people unable to stop eating it.
Only after eating a large piece of "Thunder Dragon Steak" did Ryan lie on the ground beside the lake with satisfaction.
In front of him, a large number of panel prompts appeared.
[[Gluttony] reaches "100/100", completing the fourth "Gluttony Joy", and according to the food eaten during the period, the following permanent gains are obtained: Special Skill [Dragon Helmet (Master)]-The damage received is permanently reduced by 20% (there is a rank judgment, it can only take effect by three-quarters if it is one rank higher than the owner, and it can only take effect by one-quarter if it is two rank higher, and it is completely invalid if it is three rank higher). ]
[[Glutton Hunter (First Order)] The compatibility is increased by 25%, currently 100%, and the spirituality is +3.0 (total)! 】
【Completed four times of "Gluttony Pleasure", [Gluttony Hunter (Level 1)] compatibility reached 100%...judgment in progress...After completing the following conditions, you can be promoted to the second-level hidden profession-[Apostle of Pleasure]:】
【1. Basic attributes: [Spirituality] ≥ 5.0, [Physicality] ≥ 5.0 (completed)】
【2. Pleasure Ritual: In a grand occasion, complete the "pleasure" behavior recognized by more than a hundred people-the desire for desire and the pursuit of excitement are the most extreme manifestations of "pleasure". (Unfinished)】
——
Until he finished reading the last sentence, Ryan's eyes still had a look of surprise.
There is a lot of information, and he needs to summarize it one by one.
First, the gains that have been obtained.
As the professional compatibility reaches 100%, his spirituality has received a huge additional value of 1.5.
When the professional compatibility is 75%, the additional value is only 1.5, and when it reaches 100%, it is directly doubled to 3.0!
This made his avatar's [Spirit] jump to 9.0, and the original body's spirituality also reached 7.8.
With only the last 1.0 of spirituality, the avatar can meet the prerequisite for using the greatsword "True Charge Slash".
Ryan has longed for that amazing sword that cuts the waves and splits the sea.
Secondly, the level of [Dragon Helm] has been improved. This is the first time Ryan has seen a skill level of "Master", and its effect also surprised him.
Although the damage reduction of this special skill has only increased from 15% to 20%, this is not the key. The key lies in the "status" of this skill.
At the "Master" level, [Dragon Helm] can only take effect halfway when facing an enemy that exceeds one level, and it will be completely ineffective when it exceeds two levels.
But now, the "Master" level [Dragon Helm] can not only take effect three-quarters when facing an enemy that exceeds one level, but also one-quarter when facing an enemy that exceeds two levels. It will only be completely ineffective when facing an enemy that exceeds three levels.
The gap between them is too big.
As expected of a skill named "Master", the effect is extremely powerful.
Finally, the biggest and most important gain is the information about the hidden profession of the second level of [Original Sin Path]!
According to the prompt of the panel when he took the job of "Gluttony Hunter (First Level)", he only needs to complete "Gluttony Joy" four times to qualify for the second level.
And now, the panel also lists the conditions required for the second level of [Original Sin Path] in full.
First, the most basic attribute requirements, [Physique] and [Spirituality] must exceed 5.0, which Ryan has already exceeded. Although he achieved it so easily, in fact, it is not easy to achieve this requirement.
"Gluttony Hunter (Level 1)" will gain 1.5 spirituality upon taking up the job. If the career compatibility is 100%, he will gain another 3.0 spirituality. The remaining 0.5 spirituality will have to be figured out by the employed person. It should be noted that every item or method that enhances spirituality is extremely cherished.
As for the physical fitness of 5.0, it is even more difficult to achieve.
"Gluttony Hunter" does not bring any [physical] bonus at all in the process of professional integration. In other words, most of the physical growth requires the job seeker to find a way by himself. The difficulty is not to say that it is sky-high. Across the sea.
Ryan is very suspicious, on what conditions did the designer of [Original Sin Pathway] (if it existed) design such a career advancement path?
Except for non-human races who are born with strong physical bodies, can humans really meet such physical requirements?
Shaking his head, Ryan did not dwell too much on this point.
His thoughts were mainly focused on the second condition for career advancement.
——"Pleasurable Ritual."
The second-level hidden occupation name of "Original Sin Path" is [Apostle of Joy]. From the occupation name, Ryan made some simple guesses.
Among the original sins, the only one that most closely matches the word "pleasure" is "lust".
If we think about it from this point of view, in a grand occasion, a "happy" act that was recognized by more than a hundred people...
Just thinking of that scene made Ryan's scalp numb.
Is this too much fun? ! Moreover, it needs to be approved by more than a hundred people?
How "happy" must it be to be recognized by so many people!
"Huhu..."
Ryan took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down.
After thinking about it carefully, he found that his understanding of the "pleasure ritual" might be somewhat biased.
Although "lust", one of the original sins, is named "lust", the most correct understanding of "lust" is also clearly marked on the panel:
The thirst for desire, the extreme pursuit of excitement.
"Luxury" is just the simplest and most straightforward expression of desire.
In fact, if it turns into some kind of extreme stimulation, it is also a category of "pleasure".
If you think so, then there are too many types of "pleasure rituals" that can be performed.
Of course, Ryan still doesn’t have a clue as to how to hold the ceremony, and he needs to figure it out later.
After summarizing the gains, Ryan turned his head and looked at Dayin aside.
At this moment, Dayin was lying on his back on the shore with a "potbellied" body, and next to him, there were only piles of bones.
There were not many bones, and most of them were collected by Ryan before feeding them to Dayin. You must know that the bones of high-level monsters are excellent forging materials.
One person and one shark looked at each other, and they all saw the "satisfaction" in each other's eyes.
The night wind had a touch of coldness and felt quite comfortable on my body.
Ryan looked at Dayin, smiled and said, "Thank you this time."
"But how did you swim to this oasis lake?"
"This place is quite far away from the sea outside the island."
Dayin blinked innocently, then simply drew a circle with the fin hanging on the ground, and then drew a straight line from outside the circle to inside the circle.
"What you mean is that you swam over from the branch of the undersea channel that entered the inner area last time?"
Dayin nodded excitedly.
Seeing this, Ryan thought thoughtfully: "It seems that there are underwater passages extending in all directions under this isolated island."
"If you have a chance, you can ask Dayin to take him down and take a look."
Of course, Ryan would not go to the bottom of the sea easily unless he had to.
Under the sea water, his strength is ten thousand, and the risk factor is too high. Even with Dayin's escort, it is still too dangerous.
The "Pirate (Level 1)" profession's "Water Warfare Specialization" skill only extends his underwater breathing time and swimming speed, and has no real effect.
After a brief communication with Dayin, Ryan, who felt that he had almost eaten, stood up like a carp, while Dayin on the side also rolled his body into the lake water, revealing a big smooth shark head, and looked at Ryan silently .
"ah……"
After stretching his muscles, Ryan looked at Dayin in the lake: "It's getting late, I'm going back to rest. What about you, what are your plans in the future?"
Shark dancing.jpg
"You mean, you are going to continue going deep into the underwater passage. There is something faintly attracting you there..."
Ryan rubbed his chin and nodded slightly: "That's okay. Your current strength can be considered a 'high-level' one. Although it's just a step forward, I don't need to worry too much about safety."
"Go ahead."
"If you encounter any trouble, you can ask me for help in the same way as last time. After I see it, I will go to the old place to find you as soon as possible."
The way Lane puts it is a "letter for help."
Dayin nodded vigorously and splashed a large amount of water.
After looking at Ryan reluctantly, its head gradually sank to the bottom of the water, leaving only the fins with red obsidian patterns on the water, and continued to move away.
Ryan looked away.
His relationship with Dayin is pure.
Both parties will help each other within their capabilities, and when everything is over, they will go their separate ways.
There is a feeling that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water.
Although it felt a bit wrong to describe it this way, Ryan couldn't think of any more suitable words for a while.
After bidding farewell to Dayin, he simply packed up and headed back.
After returning to [Bonfire Point-Fuyuan Outpost] smoothly, Ryan breathed a sigh of relief as he sat cross-legged next to the warm campfire.
He gained a lot from this trip, but he also experienced a hard battle. The physical exertion was secondary. The key was that the mental fatigue was difficult to relieve and he needed to take a good rest.
It's time to end this travel trip.
As for the "Roaring Black Tiger", I can only wait until my next travel trip to find it.
"Speaking of which, I haven't returned home so comfortably several times."
This idea came to Ryan's mind, and he was immediately amused by it.
Shaking his head, he reached out and touched the bonfire. As a large number of sparks escaped, his body turned into countless tiny fire spots and disappeared in place.
…
【Place of sightseeing】
Freni, who was sitting in front of the [Observation Deck], squinted her eyes, even the corners of her eyes were smiling.
Looking at the [Spiritual Essence: 19023] she now possesses, the tip of the fluffy witch hat on her head stood up with joy.
It has to be said that she was very lucky tonight, as her previous two investments in Travelers had paid off handsomely.
Among them, the most thrilling one for Freni was the first battle tonight between the Travelers - the fierce battle with the [Superior] Blood Claw Dragon.
The ratio of combat power between the Traveler and the [higher] Blood Claw Dragon is 41 and 43 respectively.
The ratio of return on investment is 1.2:8.
Although the traveler's combat effectiveness has increased by 1 point compared to last time, judging from the return on investment ratio, the gap in combat effectiveness between the two sides is still very obvious.
If you were a normal person, you would definitely choose to invest in the [high-level] Blood Claw Dragon.
But Freni has experienced so many "beatings" and has already figured out the way to it - sometimes, the more likely a battle is to be lost, the more likely the traveler is to win.
Therefore, Miss Witch cast 2,000 soul essences on the traveler without hesitation.
In fact, there is another reason for this choice: the reward for investing in the [high-level] Blood Claw Dragon is too low, and after the traveler loses, this tour will also end. In this case, it is better to "take a leap of faith" ".
After all, high risks lead to high returns!
Of course, that's what he said, but Freni, who had spent a lot of money, still clenched her fists nervously throughout the whole process.
And this nervous emotion reached its peak when the word [Gu Long] appeared in the [Battle Record] when she was watching it.
Although it is not clear what the word [Ancient Dragon] means, from the description of the battle record, it can be seen that the [Superior] Blood Claw Dragon was beaten to death with one blow. The strength of [Ancient Dragon] is far superior to that of the Traveling above those and superior monsters.
A long-lost sense of familiarity flooded into her heart, and Freni still clearly remembered the last time she invested, when a third monster entered the game and it ended up being a "tie".
No! Absolutely not this kind of result!
Maybe he heard the pleading of the poor witch lady.
After going through some twists and turns, the Traveler finally attacked the [upper-level] Blood Claw Dragon who was seriously injured by the ancient dragon and was on the verge of death, and finally won.
Seeing the four words "Investment Successful" at the end of [Battle Record], Freni breathed a sigh of relief.
Only then did she realize that she had been holding her breath for several minutes because she was too nervous, and she almost suffered from hypoxia.
As for the second battle that the Traveler just ended, there is no need to go into details.
It was a "Scythe Blade General" with a combat power lower than that of the Traveler, only 39, and a big crab. This was also the first time Freni saw that the return ratio of investing in the Traveler was lower than that of a monster.
Without hesitation, she directly threw 10,000 of the spiritual essence she won on the traveler. The reason why she didn't throw it all in was, of course, because even if she was "98%" sure, there was still a little bit out of control. Unexpected factors may occur, so be prepared.
The battle ended quickly. Without any surprises, the Traveler won, and Freni's 10,000 spiritual essences became 12,000 spiritual essences, bringing the number of spiritual essences on hand to a terrifying 19,023.
This was the first time that Miss Witch had such a huge sum of money, and she was so happy that her eyes sparkled.
Just as Freni was planning how to use this "huge sum of money", the [Viewing Stand] in front of her entered the battle interface again.
So fast? !
Freni was stunned for a moment. My dear traveler had just finished defeating General Sickle this time and immediately encountered the next enemy.
As she turned her gaze to the specific combat interface, the prompts that came into her eyes made her expression become serious.
——
[The "original heart" traveler encounters a powerful enemy - the [Superior] Thunder Dragon, and the war is about to break out. 】
[Comparison of combat power between the two camps: Traveler (42) vs [Higher Rank] Thunder Dragon (45)]
[The amount of investment you currently have [Lingcui: 19032]]
[The ratio of both parties - Traveler: [Higher] Thunder Dragon = 9.9:1.01, the minimum investment amount is 100 spirit essence. 】
[You have thirty seconds to invest and place bets...]
——
Freni couldn't remember how long it had been since she had seen such a disparity in return on investment.
9.9 : 1.01
The gap of nearly ten times means that the possibility of the Traveler winning is extremely slim.
Compared with the [high-ranking] Blood Claw Dragon, the [high-ranking] Thunder Dragon is only 2 points higher in terms of combat power data, but Freni knows very well that the strength cannot be compared like this.
At the level of more than forty combat effectiveness, every bit of combat effectiveness represents a considerable gap in strength.
Based on Freni’s experience of many visits, she made the following inferences:
40~43 belongs to the first level, 44~46 belongs to the second level, and 47~49 belongs to the third level.
In other words, there is at least a small gap between 45 points of combat effectiveness and 43 points of combat effectiveness.
The countdown is getting closer to zero.
Freni took a deep breath, raised her hand tremblingly, and invested in a certain direction.
…
Beaches on the outlying islands and inside caves.
Ryan slowly opened his eyes.
Feeling the surging and turbulent power in his body, a heartfelt smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
[Spirituality]: 5.3→7.8
【Physique】：18.44→23.03
Compared with before entering the place he traveled, he has made great progress in both [spirituality] and [physical].
The growth of these two attributes has also increased his overall strength significantly.
"Now, even if the outlying island falls into chaos, I have some confidence in protecting myself and taking advantage of the fire."
Ryan whispered to himself, and then he stood up and walked out of the cave.
At this moment, on the distant skyline, the rising sun has just emerged, spreading countless red-gold rays of light all over the world.
These rays of light passed through a long distance and fell in the center of Santos City. The sacred scale, the "artifact" that symbolized the supreme divine power, refracted the gorgeous golden light.
"Today is the 'Day of the Fengxing'..."
Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The "undercurrent" under the calm sea, no matter how deeply hidden it is, should have surfaced today.
"According to the information, the 'sacred ceremony' will be performed at twelve o'clock noon..."
Just as Ryan was thinking about it secretly, his eyes suddenly moved slightly and looked at the entrances of Freni and Cecilia.
As the door barrier disappeared, the girl's flowing long skirt and fluffy blue and white gradient hat came into view.
"Good morning, Captain."
"Good morning, Mr. Lane."
Ryan blinked as he looked at Freni who sat down next to her, hugging her knees and looking at the rising sun.
Miss Witch seems a little unhappy today?
Ryan calmly turned his gaze to Cecilia, who was wearing silver chain armor and had a meticulous expression.
The latter responded with a slight shake of his head.
Obviously, Miss Wolf Girl was also wondering at this moment why her "Princess" suddenly became depressed.
Since he couldn't get an answer, Ryan stopped thinking about it.
He took out various utensils from the space ring and began to prepare today's breakfast.
"Gulu gulu..."
Not long after, scalding hot bubbles began to appear in the iron pot, and various brightly colored ingredients could be seen tumbling inside.
The alluring fragrance brought Freni out of her daze.
Just thinking about the outcome of the battle made her a little depressed.
In the end, Miss Witch couldn't hold back and invested 1,000 souls in the traveler.
The huge disparity made her, who had always been bold, dare not invest too much.
But the final result of the battle made her heart ache.
With a nearly ten-fold difference in investment return ratio, Traveler actually defeated the [high-ranking] Thunder Dragon.
The 1,000 soul essence invested by Freni also turned into 9,900 soul essence.
But this result was even more difficult for Freni to accept than the failure of the investment.
She regrets it!
If she had known this would be the case, she would have thrown away 10,000, no, 15,000 spiritual essence!
Unfortunately, the battle is over and everything is irreversible.
Thinking of the huge amount of spiritual essence being lost from her hands like this, Miss Witch felt heartbroken.
pain! It hurts so much!
Next time, no matter what, vote for Traveler!
I must have absolute confidence in my dear travelers.
"call……"
Freni breathed a sigh of relief and gradually adjusted her mood. She walked to the iron pot and smelled the alluring fragrance, and her depressed mood was greatly relieved.
Feeling the girl's emotional recovery, Ryan also had a faint smile on his face.
Just as he was about to serve the soup to the girl, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Because, he suddenly felt the call of [Overturning the Mask]!
——
(Thanks to the boss "Emerald Pokémon" for the reward!)
