"Finally I sent him away. If I hadn't gotten the 600 gold coins, I wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble."

After sending him away, Ethan let out a long breath, and only then did he have time to check the short-selling income.

[Short-selling income is 280 strength, which can be converted into your own strength or skill points.

The conversion skill point ratio is: for the first secondary talent, every 15 strength is exchanged for one skill point.

For the second secondary talent, every 50 strength is exchanged for one skill point.

For each additional talent, 35 strength is added. Up to 100 strength.

Only secondary talents can use strength to exchange skill points, and the main talent needs to use the original force to exchange skill points. The ratio will be open at that time. ]

"280 strength!" Ethan exclaimed after seeing it.

"If we calculate based on the maximum 35% return from short selling, that means Anderik has 800 strength."

"In his previous life, the world weightlifting champion could lift more than 200 kilograms, which was already amazing, but Anderik actually has 800 strength. Is he still a human?"

Ethan was really shocked by this gain, but if you think about it carefully, there are extraordinary people in this world, and it's nothing to be surprised about if he has greater strength.

"This 280 strength can be exchanged for a lot of skill points. Let me calculate, the first secondary talent only needs 15 strength to exchange for one skill point.

And my first secondary talent only needs 9 skill points to be maxed out, which means 135 strength is enough."

Thinking of this, Ethan immediately exchanged 9 skill points and added them all to sword specialization.

[Sword Spirit]: Passive skill.

The sword has become a part of your body and has become a conscious soul.

When there are swords within three meters of you, they will accept your summons.

And your perception, reaction, eyesight, hearing, and smell will rise by one level.

Each level up, the sword summoning range will expand by one meter.

Perception, reaction, eyesight, hearing, and smell will rise by one level.

Current LV5.

When the skill was activated, Ethan suddenly felt that he had sharp eyes and ears, and his sense of smell was much more sensitive.

He also established a sense of connection with the Champion Blade on his waist, as if as long as he summoned it, it would come regardless of thousands of mountains and rivers.

"There are 7 rats in the sewer, one seems to be sick and dying!"

"There is a stick insect on the tree 20 meters away. Although it is disguised as a dead branch, the fluff on its feet cannot be faked."

"The kitchen should be frying steak. There is too much pepper, which is a bit choking."

Ethan tried his ability and felt very good. Everything around him was under control.

The only bad thing was that because the skill was activated too quickly, he had not yet adapted to this ability.

The ears were too noisy, the eyes saw everything very slowly, and there were all kinds of odors floating in, which made him unbearable.

Ethan quickly took a piece of cloth and covered his ears and nose, and then he felt better.

Of course, this is only necessary temporarily. When the body adapts, there is no need to cover it again. The body will automatically filter out useless information.

When Ethan first clicked the sword mastery skill, he encountered this situation.

After clicking the [Swordsmanship Mastery] skill, it should be more familiar with the sword.

But in fact, when I just clicked it, I felt that the sword was very strange and incompatible with my habits.

But when I got used to it, I felt that this was the real mastery of the sword.

Therefore, Ethan was not worried that he would have to cover himself with a piece of cloth when he went out in the future.

After trying the senses, Ethan tried to summon again.

Put the sword on the table, then lie on the bed and stretch out your hand.

With a "clang", the Champion Blade suddenly flew out of the leather case and landed steadily in his hand.

Ethan was overjoyed and threw the sword out again. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and the sword turned several circles in the air, drew a beautiful arc, and returned to his hand.

"Haha! It's amazing! If I suddenly throw the sword out in battle, and the sword suddenly flies back and cuts across the enemy's neck, I wonder what the enemy will think?"

"I guess there's no way to think!"

"Haha!"

After testing the summon, Ethan wanted to test his reaction again.

But testing reaction requires the cooperation of others, so he can only put it aside for now. Now he should consider how to deal with the remaining strength.

"There is no need to open the secondary talent for the time being. It is more important to convert it all into my own strength. If Rand really sends someone to assassinate me, I will also have the strength to fight."

If he wants to do it, he will do it. Ethan began to convert the remaining strength into his own strength.

But he didn't convert it all at once. It was not because he was reluctant, but because he was afraid that the sudden increase of more than 100 strength would cause his body to not adapt, which would be troublesome.

So he went from 10 strength to 10 strength, and every time he transformed, he did a few sets of flexibility exercises taught by the academy.

This kind of exercise is somewhat like yoga, which can not only help relieve pain after training, but also make the body stronger and more flexible.

Generally in the academy, whether it is before or after training, you basically have to do it once, both as a warm-up exercise and as a maintenance exercise.

Ethan slowly transformed his strength while doing flexibility exercises.

"I have to say, it's really effective. I obviously feel that my strength has become stronger, but I don't feel any discomfort."

Ethan found it effective and worked harder, but found that after converting 100 power, the remaining 65 power would not change no matter how much it was converted.

"Is there an upper limit?"

"That's right, a person's body always has its strength limit."

"Now that I have converted 100 power, plus I originally had almost 160 power, I now have 260."

"Although it's not as good as those perverts, it's much stronger than most people. If you really encounter a strong enemy, you won't suffer too much in terms of strength."

Ethan is very satisfied with today's profit and already feels that regaining his territory is just around the corner.

"The remaining power will be reserved for later use. As for what secondary talents to learn later, we will choose based on the situation."

Ethan was doing flexibility exercises repeatedly while thinking about the road ahead.

Unconsciously, I found that it was already dark.

Only then did he realize that something was wrong: "Why haven't the gold coins promised by Miloqi been delivered yet?"

"You're not regretting it, are you?"

"Is it possible that because he didn't sign the contract, he delayed paying the reward."

The more Ethan thought about it, the more likely it was, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

"I may not be able to deal with Rand, but if Miloqi dares to play tricks on me, don't blame me for being rude."

Thinking about it, Ethan was going to go out to settle the score with Miloqi.

At this time, subtle footsteps suddenly came from the roof of the hotel. The sound was like a cat walking across the roof.

Although the sound was faint, it still did not escape Ethan's ears.

"Coming so soon?"

"He's a master!"

"Fortunately, I learned new skills, otherwise I wouldn't know how I would have died."
