Chapter 118 New Sword Skill Inheritance! (6.6k words, please subscribe)

Off-island, in the central area of ​​Saint Tos City, under the "Sacred Scale" that symbolizes absolute fairness, a graceful figure slowly walked out from behind the door of the high platform.

The gorgeous long dress with a blue base and golden embellishments like the color of the sea dragged to the ground. The thin gauze covered her face, making it impossible to peek into the peerless beauty behind the veil, but the blue-gold eyes made the person who looked directly at it feel like facing the vast sea.

The gentleness and infinity of the sea, the violence and ruthlessness of the sea, are all in it.

——The eldest daughter of the Saint Tos royal family, the water drop princess, Ariel.

In the crowd, Ryan frowned slightly.

Although he could not see the panel introduction of the "Water Drop Princess" due to the distance, he instinctively felt that the strength of the "Water Drop Princess" was at least the level of a third-level hero, or even higher.

As expected of the Saint Toss royal family that can run parallel to the Libra Holy Church with "artifacts", just the tip of the iceberg revealed is enough to make people dare not underestimate it.

"Water Drop Princess!"

"Your Highness!"

Seeing the appearance of the woman, the crowd suddenly burst into shocking cheers, and the noisy shouts even made the church flags around the Libra Holy Church headquarters tremble slightly.

Witnessing the fanatical shouts of the people around him, in order to avoid being too "different", Ryan also pretended to cheer.

At this time, a solemn female voice echoed.

"The water drop blessing is about to begin, everyone..."

"——Silence."

The person who spoke was a female knight who appeared behind the water drop princess at some point. She was wearing a full set of white knight armor, and not even a trace of skin was exposed.

Wherever the voice passed, the shouts of the people stopped as if the pause button was pressed.

"What a strong spirituality!"

Ryan's heart was shocked. This intensity of spirituality even exceeded the "Iris Knight" he had faced before.

Level 3 limit, or above level 3?

"My dear people..."

On the high platform, the water drop princess opened her cherry lips, her voice clear and ethereal: "Thank you for your kindness."

"Please accept my sincere blessings."

In the afterglow of the voice, ten drops of blue-gold liquid beads were sprinkled by her and sprinkled on the crowd below.

In an instant, the crowd surged, and the people ran towards the place where the blue-gold water drop fell, just to get the "water drop blessing" and get the rumored "luck".

Ryan was moved by the sea of ​​people, and he was not interested in the "holy water drop" that could bring the so-called "luck".

Who knows if this thing has a positioning function, and what price do you have to pay when you get the so-called "luck"?

He never believes in pie in the sky.

However, what surprised Ryan was that he had tried his best to avoid the "holy water drop", but he found that one drop of this thing seemed to be aimed at him, no matter which direction he moved in the crowd, it would lock him firmly.

Before he could explode, the speed of the "holy water drop" suddenly increased, hitting his face at once, or more precisely, hitting the [No. 7 Overturning Mask] on his face.

At the same time, a slightly familiar voice appeared beside his ear: "No. 7 Zifeng, I am No. 1 Chiyuan, don't worry, the water drop princess has reached a cooperation with our Overturning Palace, this "holy water drop" will serve as the hub for our members of the Overturning Palace to communicate in the world, and at the same time, it is also a small benefit."

"In addition to you, No. 4 Green Tide and No. 5 Qingling in the crowd also got the "holy water drop."

The sudden voice made Ryan hold back the action of pulling off the [No. 7 Overturning Mask]. Of course, the more important thing was the introduction of the [No. 7 Overturning Mask] on the panel.

——

[Mask of Overturn No. 7: One of the sub-body masks derived from the secret treasure-A09 Overturned Palace. After wearing it, you can simulate different faces according to your own ideas (you can also make the mask transparent to show your true appearance), which is difficult to be seen and locked by external reconnaissance means.

When wearing this mask, silently recite "Palace of Overturn" in your heart, and you can be teleported to the "Palace of Overturn" in ten seconds (autonomous teleportation, only once every half month, if summoned, it does not consume the number of teleportations).

The surface of this mask is stained with "holy water drops". In the next week, your fortune will be +1, and the water drops will also form "anchors" to help the mask of overturn No. 7 achieve voice communication within a certain range. 】

——

"Fortune +1? Anchors, voice communication?"

Ryan's eyes narrowed slightly.

The so-called "fortune" involves all aspects, and those who can affect it, whether good or bad, cannot be low in status.

And the role of the second "anchor point" makes Ryan even more concerned.

If the ownership of the "holy water drop" is based on the manipulation of the water drop princess, then what is her purpose in leaving "anchor points" on so many people?

According to the people, similar rituals have been carried out more than once, and no one knows how many "anchor points" have been buried during the period.

What is the reason for the water drop princess to do this? As the eldest daughter of the royal family of Saint Tos, why does she want to cooperate with the people of the Overturned Palace? Or is she a member of the Overturned Palace herself?

Is it "Red Kite No. 1"? Or No. 2 or No. 3 who have never shown up?

Ryan's eyes are deep.

He was not surprised that he became an "anchoring point". In fact, even without the "Holy Water Drop", the Overturning Palace could still know his location based on the [Overturning Mask No. 7].

Everything has pros and cons, that's all.

This is not a big problem.

The key is that Princess Shui Drop was involved in the "Overturned Palace", which made him have different speculations about the "theft of sacred objects".

Princess Water Drop is the eldest daughter of the royal family of the Kingdom of Santos. Her existence represents the position of the royal family of Santos to a certain extent, and the purpose of the operation of the Overturned Palace has been from the first day that Ryan joined. No. Red Yuan" told him clearly and unmistakably: "It is intended to overturn the shackles that imprison the world."

So, what are the "shackles" for the Kingdom of Santos?

There is no doubt that it is divine authority!

In this era where gods hide behind the scenes, divine power should not exist, let alone go hand in hand with royal power.

If Ryan were a member of the Santos royal family, he would also have such thoughts.

In the past, perhaps due to lack of power or lack of opportunity, the divine power and royal power of the Santos Kingdom checked and balanced each other, but they still existed at the same time.

And now... the intervention of some kind of force or the arrival of a certain opportunity has given the Santos royal family the confidence to break this balance.

"The Day of the Fengxing...the sacred ceremony...the key to activating the 'Holy Scale' was stolen..."

All the clues are connected together, and the identity of the thief of the sacred objects has been revealed - it is absolutely inseparable from the royal family of Santos and the Overturned Palace.

What makes Ryan more confused is what happened to the "cat footprints" left at the scene of the theft of the sacred object. Could it be that the Phantom Beast Witch Meloye was also involved in this matter?

In addition, Princess Shuidi openly carried out such "blessing activities" in the main hall of the Libra Holy Cult. Why didn't the people of the Libra Holy Cult come forward to stop it?

There is still too little known information, and there are still a lot of doubts in Ryan's mind that cannot be answered.

At this moment, the surrounding crowd began to disperse gradually as the blessing on the high platform ended and Princess Water Drop left.

People who have not received the "blessing of water drops" cast their eyes on those who have received the blessing, with deep envy in their eyes.

After twisting and turning in the crowd, Ryan was far away from the sight of the crowd and appeared in a remote alleyway.

The dim alley seemed particularly quiet. Just a few meters away, it formed two completely different worlds from the noisy street.

Ryan stopped, raised his head, and looked ahead.

I saw a tall, thin young man with a gloomy face walking out from the corner, throwing a knife in his hand.

At the same time, a fat figure appeared behind Ryan. He blocked the escape route and strode towards Ryan.

"Hand over the 'Water Drop' and the Black Hand Gang will let you go, otherwise..."

The voice of the tall and thin young man was cold and threatening.

In response, Ryan just looked at the darkness behind the young man and said in a calm tone: "Is this your meeting etiquette?"

Ryan's words stunned the tall and thin young man, and then he sneered: "You want me to divert my attention and then launch a sneak attack. I have used this trick since I was a child...to an adult...ho ho..."

At the end of the words, blood foam with fragments of internal organs flowed out of the young man's mouth uncontrollably. He lowered his head tremblingly and saw a hand that penetrated his chest.

It was a hand with a pure black wrist armor, and thick blood flowed from the edge of the wrist armor, like a lost life.

At the same time, behind Ryan, the fat man, who sensed something was wrong, wanted to turn around and run away, but a spike sprouted from the shadows and penetrated between his eyebrows, causing his eyes to gradually dim.

"of course not."

A soft female voice sounded from the darkness, and under Ryan's gaze, a figure wearing a female knight's light armor emerged from the shadows.

"Nightwatch? Black Knight?"

Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It's a Night Watchman, but it's not a Black Knight." The female knight's voice was serious: "[Black Knight] is a second-level variant profession of the Night Watch path cultivated by the Augustus royal family. It is not the traditional second-level Night Watchman. Occupation [Shadow Assassin].”

"I am No. 5 Qing Ling, first time meeting, No. 7 Zifeng."

As she spoke, the female knight's face was distorted, showing a cyan mask, but it quickly changed back.

Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly: "How did you find me?"

There are ten people who have obtained "Holy Water Drops". Excluding him, No. 4 Green Wave and No. 5 Qing Ling, there are still seven people, and they are far apart from each other. How did the other party find him.

"This is related to my professional ability. [Shadow Assassin] can leave a mark on the target's shadow that lasts for two days. In fact, I was near you as early as your first confrontation with Green Wave No. 4."

"Don't worry, I'm not following you, I just happened to sense the range mark."

Qing Ling's voice was neither slow nor slow. In order to show her sincerity, she even revealed her profession and some of her abilities. It had to be said that it was in line with the knight's calm and upright style of conduct.

And her words also made Ryan's heart tremble slightly.

When he had a confrontation with Green Wave No. 4, the "Iris Knight" Hansal, he had no energy left to sense his surroundings. He never expected that there would be such a powerful "assassin" hiding nearby.

"...So, what is your purpose of coming to me?" Ryan was silent for a moment and slowly said.

"Do you want to cooperate?" Qingling suggested: "Let's form a team. If the 'underground maze' is opened after a while, and there are people exploring together, the safety and efficiency will be improved a lot."

Ryan narrowed his eyes: "Why do you want to cooperate with me alone? The palace master said that you can go to her, right?"

"Of course it's because you are the weakest." Qing Ling said bluntly: "Although I am surprised that you can force the Green Wave back and injure the Green Wave, but if you continue to fight, you are not the Green Wave's opponent. Choose the weakest one." As a teammate, I feel more at ease.”

"Besides, you don't think everyone in the palace trusts each other, do you?"

"Although they are from the same organization, everyone has different positions and identities. Who can say that there will be no conflicts? Organizations that are united by interests will one day fall apart because of interests."

"..." Ryan was speechless for a moment. This was the first time he had seen such a direct and honest person: "Sorry, I already have teammates, but if you need it, you can contact me through the mask. I will help as much as I can. I will help as long as you provide adequate compensation."

Regarding the Overturned Palace, Ryan only plans to use its "remote transaction and intelligence platform" and does not want to be too deeply involved with the members of the Palace.

Hearing Ryan's refusal, Qingling didn't bother too much: "Since you don't want to, then forget it. I'll give you a reminder as an apology from the previous mark."

"Tomorrow is the 'Day of the Fengxing'. By then, there will be huge commotion in Santos City, especially at the headquarters of the Libra Temple. If you don't want to get into trouble, try to hide before noon tomorrow."

After saying that, Qing Ling's body faded little by little, merged into the shadows again, and disappeared.

Ryan frowned.

Even though he had been paying attention all the time, he still couldn't detect Qing Ling's traces. This meant that once the two sides fought, just finding Qing Ling's whereabouts would be a troublesome matter.

Of course, this is also related to distance. The strength of his body gives Ryan a keen perception, but this kind of perception is different from the large-scale perception of spirituality. It specializes in different fields and is good at high-precision perception within a certain range.

And this range is three meters.

In a real fight, once Qing Ling appears within three meters of him, there is a high probability that he will be noticed.

"call……"

Ryan let out a breath. After he was told that the shadow was marked, he immediately checked it carefully and found something "wrong". However, before he could take action, the mark automatically collapsed. Obviously, this is Qingling's own handiwork.

"I always feel that this guy's personality doesn't match his career well..."

Ryan shook his head slightly, this incident was a wake-up call for him.

Professionals have various abilities, and they need to be careful, careful, and more careful when doing things.

…

After leaving the alley, Ryan did not stay in Santos City for long.

There is still quite some time before Master Golden Hammer completes the forging commission. During this interval, he plans to do something big.

Turning back all the way, Ryan returned to the beach area.

At this moment, the cave where Freni and Cecilia were was closed. It seems that the two women were also carrying out their own training.

Ryan did not disturb them, but returned to his cave, sat cross-legged on the stone bed, and then took out a blue octahedral crystal from the space ring.

——[Inheritance Crystal] that records the complete "Storm Sword Skill".

Now, [Storm Sword Skill - Breaking Wave] Ryan has fully understood it and is qualified to start learning the next sword skill.

With anticipation, Ryan placed the [Heritage Crystal] between the eyebrows to inject spirituality.

The surface of the azure crystal stone began to flicker, and the "verification process" was quickly completed. The next moment, Ryan's eyes blurred, and he was already on a deck, and in front of him, there was still the familiar tall figure.

"Boom!"

There were bursts of thunder, dark clouds covered the sky, and the violent wind formed turbulent waves on the sea, and the ship Ryan was on hit hard.

However, compared with the oncoming huge waves of nearly 100 meters in the direction of the ship's sailing, these waves can only be said to be "insignificant".

Once that terrifying wave, which is several times higher than the mast, hits, the entire ship will have only one end - torn apart.

But in the face of such huge waves, the man standing on the bow deck just silently pulled out the sword behind him, put it on his shoulder, and started the "charging" that Ryan was all too familiar with.

The white shimmer of the high-speed stream of light appeared on the sword in the man's hand.

"Thum—thum—thum—!"

The terrifying spirituality rose up like a cluster of huge torches. In a short period of time, the man completed the "three stages of charging", and then slashed out heavily.

The huge sword energy swept out like a violent hurricane, even causing the huge waves to stand still for a few seconds.

But the man's movements did not stop. He rounded the big sword and put it back on his shoulder. The intense white light that far exceeded the previous "three stages of charging" shone on the big sword.

"cut!"

With a loud shout, a terrifying sword energy that was far superior to the "three-level charge" was struck vertically. Its size was even higher than the nearly 100-meter giant wave.

"Boom!"

The sea water rolled back and spread all over the sky. In Ryan's stunned eyes, the huge wave nearly a hundred meters high was split into two by the sword energy and collapsed.

"This is the second sword skill of Storm Swordsmanship - [Split the Sea]."

"Do you understand?"

The man's calm voice echoed in Ryan's ears, and the next moment, everything in front of Ryan gradually faded away.

...

"Storm Sword Skill Second Sword Skill - [Sea Divide]..."

In the cave, Ryan slowly opened his eyes, with shock still in his eyes.

The nearly 100-meter-high wave, the power of the overturning, I'm afraid that even the [Upper] level of special species, few can take it, but under the man's sword, it was neatly split into two, and the sharp and terrifying sword energy even scared away the "anger of the sea".

"The man in the [Inheritance Crystal], the rank is at least above the fourth rank..."

After sighing for a while, Ryan got up and came to the beach outside the cave, drew out the big sword, and began to try.

After the inheritance of the [Inheritance Crystal], he has the most basic understanding and mastery of [Storm Sword Skill - Sea Divide].

Unlike the first sword skill of Storm Swordsmanship - [Breaking Waves], the second sword skill - [Dividing the Sea], based on the former, has derived two different changes.

The first is the sword energy.

Before, no matter how many stages of power Ryan performed, the greatsword he slashed was a real physical attack. After learning the second sword skill, he was able to derive sword energy attacks based on power.

However, compared with the real greatsword slash, the attack power of sword energy is weaker.

But if attacking an enemy with flying ability, the sword energy attack can have an unexpected effect, which can be regarded as an expansion of his medium and long-range attack methods.

The other change is what Ryan values ​​most.

In addition to the "three-stage power charging", the new derivative "power charging", the sword that cuts off the 100-meter giant wave, is based on this move.

Compared with this, even the power of the "three-stage power charging" feels like a "child playing house".

Therefore, Ryan named it "True Power", which means a real power-charged sword slash.

And what Ryan is going to try now is this move.

Spirituality is surging, and power is gathering.

Soon, the "three-stage power charge" has been completed!

According to the content of the inheritance, Ryan began to adjust the speed and position of the flow of spirituality, so that it can gather into a ball. When the ball is compressed to the extreme and explodes, it can cut a "true power charge" sword.

However, even if Ryan has mobilized all the spirituality in his body, he still can't make the spirituality ball reach the point where it is compressed to the extreme and is about to explode.

——His 5.3 [spirituality] did not reach the minimum threshold for using "true power charge".

After a few seconds, the gathered spirituality ball disintegrated, and Ryan put down the greatsword in his hand and sighed.

According to his estimation, if you want to use "true power charge", you must have at least 10 [spirituality].

In other words, this is a sword skill that he cannot use at the first level.

In fact, a [Spirit] of more than 10 is already the standard of the third level, which means that Ryan has two jobs, and the blessing of [Gluttony Hunter] is much higher than that of normal professions. Otherwise, even if he is at the second level, he still cannot meet the requirements of using this sword skill.

Compared with [Spirit], the difficulty of this sword skill for normal professionals lies in [Physique].

The highly compressed spiritual ball requires a strong enough body to withstand it. Therefore, the minimum [Physique] requirement for using "Storm Sword Skill Second Sword Skill-[Sea Division]" is the same as [Spirit], both of which are 10 points.

Normal professionals want to have 10 points of [Physique] at the third level?

This is almost impossible. Even the "Soldier Path" that is more inclined to physical fitness can only achieve this [Physique] requirement at the third level.

"No wonder only the basic version of Storm Sword Skill is widely circulated. The difficulty of this sword skill is almost vertically raised."

Ryan shook his head.

Since he couldn't use "real power accumulation", he could only settle for the next best thing and began to study the sword energy attack part of "three-stage power accumulation".

And this attempt also made Ryan realize that it was not easy to use sword energy to attack.

The power accumulation process of the great sword is a process of compressing spirituality and power and then exploding. It is not easy to adjust the structure of spirituality and transform it into sword energy in this process.

Ryan tried for a while and found that he could only slash out sword energy 100% when he had "one stage of power accumulation". When it came to "two stages of power accumulation", the success rate dropped sharply.

"I still need to practice more, and there is a long way to go..."

Facing the rustling sea breeze, Ryan sighed.

...

The time for practice always passes by in a flash.

When Ryan came to his senses, it was already night.

The soft and dripping moonlight spread on the sea, making people feel peaceful and peaceful in their hearts.

After a simple dinner, Ryan said goodbye to Freni and Cecilia and set out on the road to St. Tos City again.

After a while.

Golden Hammer Blacksmith Shop.

Seeing that the sign "Forging, temporarily closed" was no longer at the door, Ryan pushed the door open with a faint smile.

A familiar huge figure was standing in the hall. Seeing Ryan, Master Golden Hammer said:

"It's just nine o'clock, you are really on time."

"Follow me, the forged greatsword is behind."

"I have to say, this is really an excellent weapon material. The greatsword made with this unicorn horn can be said to be the pinnacle of the same quality, no, it is a work that surpasses it!"

Under the guidance of Master Jin Hammer, Ryan came to the compartment behind the blacksmith shop and saw a mighty sword inserted in a special weapon rack.

It was black and yellow in color, and the sword body and hilt were much larger than the conventional style. On the surface of the huge sword body, you could vaguely see the keratin-like texture, giving people a rough, violent, wild and bloody visual impact.

At just one glance, Ryan was deeply attracted and could not look away!
