Chapter 218: Freni Began to Tour and Slowly Typed a "?"

The wind and snow howled, sweeping across the vast snowy ground.

The red greatsword broke through the hard skin of the [forbidden] horned dragon, exposing the much more vulnerable parts underneath.

The world of sluggish flow returned to normal as Ryan's greatsword fell.

"Crack!"

The terrifying sound of bone cracking rang out. Without the obstruction of the "hard skin", this "splitting god" hit the side face of the [forbidden] horned dragon firmly.

The giant beast, which was more than 30 meters tall, was hit hard by this heavy blow, and its head suddenly rose back, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, splashing a large piece of flying snow.

After a successful attack, Ryan took advantage of the victory and pursued.

When the Wind Walker was performed, his body turned into a light breeze and came to the side of the [forbidden] horned dragon's tilted head.

The pure green long sword emerged and merged with the black giant sword, making its power further surge.

As a pseudo-artifact, the Pure Blue Sword is not much inferior to the Tyrannical Great Sword in essence. The biggest reason why it is a pseudo-artifact, not a real artifact, is the incompatibility between the sword soul and the sword body.

This is the action taken by Noel to reject the Azure Leader.

Now, the Azure Leader is gone. When Noel wakes up and truly merges with the Azure Sword, the quality of this long sword will lose the prefix "pseudo" and be promoted to a real artifact.

Now, although Noel has not woken up yet, it is not a problem to use the Azure Sword's "possession" and bless [Tyrannical Great Sword·Wolf Blood Oath].

"Ding... Ding... Ding-Ding!"

The three-stage charging and the real charging were completed in one go, and time fell into silence again. Before the [Taboo] Horned Dragon struggled to get up, Ryan cut the greatsword in his hand again.

And this time, the Power Servant also followed him to slash out the fully charged "Splitting God". Although the lack of the Azure Sword made the Power Servant's slash weaker than Ryan's, it was also extremely powerful.

"Boom-Boom!"

The solid frozen soil spread out exaggerated cracks dozens of meters long with a roar. The [Taboo] Horned Dragon, which was the first to bear the brunt, had its head smashed into the ground by the two swords.

Just as Ryan was about to take advantage of this wave to crush the [Taboo] Horned Dragon, suddenly, a dazzling red light burst out.

Caught off guard, Ryan could only hold up the blood barrier again, but was repelled dozens of meters away by the impact force.

The Power Servant was repelled further because of the lack of protection. At a glance, it was at least two hundred meters.

In the increasingly deep red light, the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon pulled its head out of the deep pit and was slashed by the greatsword one after another. Even though it was a forbidden frozen monster with thicker skin and flesh than other monsters of the same level, it was still seriously injured.

The left cheek, which was "taken special care of", had a large area of ​​deep bone fractures.

However, such injuries made Ryan frown.

Three "splitting gods", and the attack was carried out under the premise of using "softening" to break the hard skin, but it only caused such injuries?

It was a serious injury at most, far from a fatal injury, not to mention dying.

"Isn't this bone too hard?"

Ryan had a toothache.

He noticed that the blue wind attribute spirit was constantly eroding the wound on the cheek of the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon, but it could not cause any damage to it. The broken facial bones were purely physical damage caused by the slash of Ryan's greatsword.

Seeing this scene, Ryan realized.

Because of the baptism of wind and snow for many years, the [taboo] horned dragon has an extremely outrageous resistance to attacks of wind and ice attributes in addition to its "hard skin".

The essence of Storm Swordsmanship is the swordsmanship of wind and water, and the effect on the [taboo] horned dragon will be greatly reduced.

Otherwise, the [taboo] horned dragon would not be able to stand up after being hit by "Splitting God" three times in the vital parts.

Thinking of this, Ryan quickly changed his tactics.

The red flame emerged from the surface of the Black Sword, which was the first sword skill of the Burning Swordsmanship - Flowing Wind Like Fire.

Through the "softening technique", Ryan knew that the permafrost monsters had little resistance to sudden intense heat.

Although Flowing Wind Like Fire is a swordsmanship of wind and fire, it is essentially a manifestation of wind heat.

The [Forbidden] Horned Dragon, whose body was bursting with red energy, had a higher aura. The light gradually retracted, and a crystal-like protective layer was constructed on the key parts of its body, especially the broken facial bones on the side face, where the crystal layer was particularly thick.

"Begin, the second stage."

Ryan's eyes were as sharp as ice, and he stepped behind the head of the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon in an instant.

At this moment, he had another blood-red crystal sword in his left hand, which was the "Blood Sword" constructed using the [Holy Relic·Embrace of Blood].

Thanks to the awakening of the holy relic and the growth of Ryan's physique, the quality of the Blood Sword has risen significantly. Although it has not reached the level of a divine weapon, it is not much inferior to a holy weapon.

On the "Blood Sword", the red light was jumping, which was a sign of the activation of "softening".

Although it fell into a deeper state of rage, the speed of the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon was far inferior to Ryan, who was blessed by the Azure Sword.

The Power Servant slashed with all his strength and broke the crystal layer.

Then, Ryan's "Blood Sword" fell, blatantly tearing open the hard skin behind the head of the [Taboo] Horned Dragon, and then the flaming sword suddenly stabbed down.

"Crack!"

Under the high temperature of the fierce fire, the defense of the [Taboo] Horned Dragon became extremely fragile. Even a simple three-stage charge attack broke through the bone defense, and this was the hardest skull area of ​​the monster.

This scene made Ryan's eyes become extremely bright.

His guess was correct!

Fire attribute attacks, or fire attribute sword skills, have additional damage bonuses to the frozen monster!

"Roar!"

The skull was damaged, and the [Taboo] Horned Dragon, feeling the crisis of life and death, opened its mouth and let out a deafening dragon roar.

The violent sound waves formed a physical impact.

But Ryan, who was well prepared, how could he be hit?

One step ahead, he activated [Special Skill·Attack Collision].

"Dominant Blood Film" made him ignore the damage and knockback of the dragon roar, and at the same time, he carried the greatsword on his shoulder.

However, this time he was no longer charging the storm sword technique, but the scorching sword technique.

——The second sword skill of the Burning Sword Art: Slashing Flame Wind Blade.

The rich red light starts from the hilt of the greatsword, accumulating little by little until it reaches the tip of the greatsword. Unlike the power accumulation of the Storm Sword Art, the power accumulation of the Burning Sword Art is more about mobilizing the spirituality in the body to transform the nature and compress the mass.

Similar to the Storm Sword Art, the two sword skills of the Burning Sword Art are also complementary to each other, or they are in sync.

Only after the "Flowing Wind Like Fire" is activated can the next step of "Slashing Flame Wind Blade" be connected.

After the power accumulation is completed, the greatsword is slashed out, and the red arc-shaped sword energy flies and slashes. It seems that the speed is not fast, but in fact, it is cut by the wind in front of it.

The Slashing Flame Sword Energy sank into the softened part of the back of the head of the [Taboo] Horned Dragon, exploding a roaring "fireworks".

After this severe blow, the [Taboo] Horned Dragon wailed, and its huge body fell again.

In Ryan's pupils, a blue light shone brightly, and a roaring and ferocious blue beast appeared behind him, rushing towards the fallen [Taboo] Horned Dragon, and exploding blue fireworks again.

The reduction of a large amount of vitality made the red energy on the surface of the [Taboo] Horned Dragon dim. Ryan, who observed this, did not hesitate at all and grabbed the giant beast under him.

"Good news, explode!"

The dark purple lines crawled all over the body of the [Taboo] Horned Dragon. It seemed to realize that death was approaching, and it launched an unprecedented violent struggle. The red light continued to burst out, trying to drown the dark purple energy on the surface.

The struggle was so fierce that it directly knocked Ryan out.

But everything was too late.

The shadow of the god of death emerged, and the sickle that controlled life and death slashed through.

The struggling [Taboo] Horned Dragon's body suddenly stiffened, and the light in the huge beast pupil suddenly went out.

"Bang!"

The stiff body fell to the snow, splashing air waves.

Ryan landed on his feet, looking at the dead beast in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

——[Taboo] The first battle, the horned dragon, the subjugation was successful!

"Huh..."

Ryan exhaled lightly.

The strength of the [Taboo] horned dragon is not strong. The taboo one star is almost the level of the beginning of the demigod, but the key is that its vitality and defense are too strong, far exceeding the same level.

You know, before taking office as the [King of Sloth], Ryan could kill the "Last Wolf Blood Knight" who had just entered the demigod strength, but after the career promotion, it took a lot of effort to complete the subjugation of the [Taboo] horned dragon.

Of course, the strength of the battle cannot be simply calculated like this.

Facing the last wolf blood knight, Ryan can ignore the gray erosion and the secondary abyss power, which does not mean that the monsters in the monster hunter world can resist this energy.

If the Wolfblood Knight and the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon fight, it is hard to say who will win or lose.

It can only be said that the different directions of evolution and the paths they take lead to huge differences.

In comparison, the monsters in the Everfrost Continent of Monster Hunter World are relatively difficult to kill.

And because of the existence of the skill [Blue Power], defeating monsters in Monster Hunter World is more profitable for Ryan.

Ryan stepped forward and walked to the trophy that peeled off from the corpse of the [Forbidden] Horned Dragon, suspended in the air, and emitting dark gold light.

The low-key and dark, but more powerful dark gold light was the first time Ryan saw it.

Trophy above the gold level?

With expectation, Ryan looked at the introduction of the panel.

——

[Trophy: Fierce Giant Horn]: Dark gold-level trophy, the forbidden-level material of the Horned Dragon, the individual living in the Everfrost Continent, has more powerful characteristics. Special skill attached [Rage lv.4]: After the vitality is reduced, the damage caused will be increased by 20% before it is fully recovered.

——

"Dark gold-level loot, level 4 special skill [Rage]..."

Ryan hissed, feeling surprised.

It is not surprising that there is a level 4 special skill attached, after all, gold-level loot comes with level 3 skills, and the number of dark gold-level ones must be more.

However, compared with the ones that exploded from the ancient dragon, there is one less ancient dragon specialization. In general, it is still the most efficient behavior to kill the ancient dragon to explode the loot.

What makes Ryan happy is that the level 4 special skill attached this time is a skill that he can use now and can immediately improve his combat effectiveness.

[Rage lv.4], the damage caused during the period from injury to recovery is increased by 20%. For people like Ryan who can freely control their injuries through [Relic·Embrace of Blood], it is equivalent to a skill that can increase damage without any conditions and can take full effect!

Simple, rough, but very effective.

Nodding with satisfaction, Ryan looked at the panel.

——

[Level]: 20 (5%) → 20 (55%)

[Spiritual Value]: 15722635 → 25722635

——

Seeing the surge in the level progress bar, Ryan was surprised.

It must be said that although the [Taboo] Horned Dragon is difficult to kill, the experience value obtained after the successful crusade is also much higher than that of the same level.

Under the premise of a surge in experience per level, the level of Taboo One Star can increase his experience bar by 50%. It can be foreseen that if he defeats another Taboo One Star Everfreeze monster, he will be able to upgrade again!

"Not bad, not bad!"

Although he failed to upgrade directly, Ryan was very satisfied.

After checking the harvest, Ryan cast his eyes on the huge body in front of him.

[Taboo] The body of the horned dragon is too huge. Even if his current space ring has a large capacity, it is impossible to fit it. Therefore, it is necessary to strip the useful core materials. As for most of the flesh and scraps, they can only be left where they are.

Ryan felt a little heartbroken.

It would be great if Dayin was by his side.

After he stripped the materials, the remaining flesh and blood could be directly swallowed by Dayin. In this way, it would not be wasted, and Dayin's strength could be improved, killing two birds with one stone.

Speaking of Dayin...

"I don't know where this guy is." Ryan sighed.

The coordinates transmitted by Dayin are only the edge of the permafrost continent. That is where it has arrived before, not the real-time location. At present, Dayin does not know which area of ​​the permafrost continent it is in.

It is unknown whether it can adapt to such an extremely cold climate?

Although Ryan was worried about this, he was not too worried.

As an evolution of Red Yao, Dayin's body structure is not static, and will undergo a certain degree of transformation and evolution according to the external environment.

After a while, Ryan completed the collection of [Taboo] Horned Dragon materials.

He came to the snow forest area in front and found a tree hole. He lit a bonfire in it, roasting the steak of [Taboo] Horned Dragon while thinking about the gains and losses of the previous battle.

The battle with [Taboo] Horned Dragon exposed that the Storm Sword Skill would reduce a lot of damage when facing the Everfrost Monster, a monster with extremely high resistance to ice and wind attributes.

This also means that in the next expedition to the Everfrost Continent, he needs to use the Burning Sword Skill as the main means of attack.

Well... not necessarily.

If Ryan can combine the Storm Sword Skill and the Burning Sword Skill, he can play the advantages of the two sword skills at the same time and deal huge damage to the Everfrost Monster.

But the problem is that he had considered the fusion of these two sword skills before, but it could not be completed before the Burning Sword Skill was upgraded to the Grandmaster level.

Therefore, his next goal is to improve the Burning Sword Art to the Grandmaster level as soon as possible!

During the thinking process, the steak was also baked. Ryan took a bite and his eyes lit up immediately.

Delicious!

...

Time went back to the early morning.

After saying goodbye to Ryan, Freni returned to the captain's room alone.

Until this moment, her heart was still pounding.

Reaching out and patting her hot cheeks, Miss Witch took a long time to calm down her fluctuating heart.

She didn't know why she said such words and did such things. Now thinking back...

At the same time, she was shy and had an inexplicable pleasure.

After all, Mr. Ryan's expression just now was so cute...

"Hehe..."

After a silly smile, Freni patted her face again, and even the fluffy witch hat on her head shook.

Looking at Cecilia who was still in the "Moonlight Cocoon", Freni pursed her lips, then turned and walked into the small room in the captain's room.

It has been a long time since the last visit.

Although she has received the gift from her aunt, which has given her the strength to compete with the legend, it is still very important to improve her realm and foundation.

The "precious materials" exchanged by the [Observation Deck] are things that are hard to obtain in the outside world. I couldn't do anything when I was in a coma before, but now that I have recovered, of course I can't let it go every day!

With the activation of the [Unknown Bow], after many days, Freni came to the viewing area again.

She came to the viewing platform and looked at the picture in front of her.

I don't know how the traveler has been after so many days?

She still remembers that the last time she visited, the traveler's opponent was a powerful monster called "Ancient Dragon-Corpse Dragon".

That time, she lost 10w spiritual essence, which made her remember it deeply.

The girl was very curious, where did the traveler go now?

The picture of the observation deck began to appear, and what appeared in Freni's eyes was an endless snow forest.

"Hmm?"

There was some doubt in the eyes of the witch lady.

Although the environment of the area where the traveler adventures is changeable, sometimes it is a forest, sometimes a swamp, and sometimes a volcano, but this endless snow forest is too exaggerated, right?

Traveler, where are you going?

With this doubt, Furenee watched quietly. After a while, the picture froze and began to enter the battle interface.

——

[The "experienced" traveler encounters a powerful enemy - [Grand Rank] Han Yulong, and the battle is about to break out. 】

[Comparison of the combat power of the two camps: Traveler (63) vs [Grand Rank] Hanyulong (59)]

[The amount of investment you currently have [Lingcui: 60728]]

[The ratio of both parties - Traveler: [Grand Position] Han Yulong = 1.01: 10.0, the minimum investment amount is 100 spirit essence. 】

[You have thirty seconds to invest and place bets...]

——

Looking at the information displayed on the battle interface, a question mark slowly appeared on Freni's head?

This was the first time she had seen a traveler encounter a monster with lower combat power than him.

Those who invest in travel can only get 1% of the income if they win. What is this little bit of wisdom enough for?

Moreover, the prefix of the traveler has changed from "original intention" to "experienced"?

What happened during the time I wasn’t watching?
