Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible

At noon, in the vast sky, more than ten armed airships of various sizes lined up in a column and moved forward in a mighty manner.

Under the airship, there is an endless line of coalition troops. Viewed from the air, the coalition forces are as dense as a swarm of ants. Leading the way is the Empire's cavalry regiment. The bright silver light armor is connected to form a sparkling sea on the ground. Spot of light, they took charge of the reconnaissance and escort missions of the coalition forces.

Behind the cavalry, there was a wave of gray heavy armored infantry. Their number accounted for more than half of the coalition forces. In the center of the entire army were relatively fragile special units such as elves and mages.

The coalition forces were not traveling very fast on the ground, so the airship units in the sky also maintained an extremely slow cruising speed.

The time for the crusade against the black dragon was set on the morning of the fourteenth day. They needed to wait for Geraint and others to bypass the entire dark valley and reach behind the monster before launching a simultaneous attack, so the coalition forces were not in a hurry.

In the sky, at the forefront of the airship fleet, are three large armed airships lined up. Their huge size of nearly a hundred meters makes them particularly conspicuous among the fleet.

The airship on the far right is Xu Yue's current car. On the smooth and wide deck, Xu Yue stood at the front of the airship, looking down at the magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers below, and felt that his whole heart became heroic. got up.

Compared with modern aircraft, this huge and heavy magic airship gave mankind a sense of conquest above all else. The few clouds that occasionally passed by the airship constantly reminded him that his conquest was even greater. sky instead of the sea below.

"This is the combination of strength and beauty, the best mount for a man."

Touching the guardrail on the spaceship fondly, Xu Yue couldn't help but sigh.

Although I have flown on Barna's airship before, the feeling of riding on someone else's and riding on my own is definitely very different. What's more, even in terms of size, his armed airship is almost the same as Barna's. About three times that of a civilian airship.

However, as the size has increased, the energy consumption and personnel requirements for driving the airship have also increased. The Barna aircraft can be operated by a single person, while the minimum personnel requirement for Xu Yue's aircraft is fifteen people, so that it can be guaranteed The entire airship operates normally.

In addition to the captain Xu Yue, there are a total of 40 crew members on the current spaceship, all of whom are from Besked. 20 of them are shipwrights of the spaceship, responsible for various aspects such as driving, piloting, maintenance, attack and defense, and daily life. In addition, 20 people are knights of the Guards Knights, serving as the armed force of the airship.

Nominally, these people were mainly Xu Yue, but he knew clearly that these people were probably Beskod's confidants.

But as long as they don't violate Beskod's orders, there is no doubt about the loyalty of these people.

"Barron, at our current speed, how long will it take to reach the Black Mountain Fortress."

Upon hearing Xu Yue's question, a middle-aged man in leather armor from behind responded respectfully:

"Captain Xinhuo, judging from the current speed, it will take about three days."

This middle-aged man named Barron is the first officer on the airship, and he knows everything on the ship and all the capabilities of the airship.

"Three days? There's still plenty of time. You can take me to familiarize myself with every part of the spaceship. Also, from today on, this spaceship will be called the Sun Chaser."

"Yes, Captain, I will take you to the driver's cab of the Sun Chaser first, over here."

Barron followed his advice. After Xu Yue named the spaceship, he immediately changed his mind and took Xu Yue to visit various places. Xu Yue wanted to have a comprehensive system of the entire spaceship in these three days. understanding.

…………

At night, the atmospheric and elegant captain's interior.

Xu Yue sat in front of the square table. The magic lamp above his head released a soft light, illuminating the entire captain's room brightly. On the square table in front of him, a dark blue potion and a simple green scroll were placed steadily.

The scroll was "Arrow Control" given to him by Bescord, and the potion was the thunder potion that he had previously spent 2,000 merit points on at the military commissary.

【Thunder Potion】

Place of Origin: Dragon Nest, Temple of Sleep

Quality: blue

Type: Intensive drugs

Effect: After drinking, agility +2, nerve reflex speed +5% (the effect is a permanent increase.)

Tip 1: After drinking this potion, a continuous paralysis effect will appear within 12 hours. This is a normal phenomenon of thunder enhancement.

Tip 2: This potion is only effective after the first drink.

Rating: 63 (blue items are rated between 31 and 70 points)

Introduction: The essence of thunder element that has been specially processed by the temple priest can slowly strengthen the human body. The only flaw is that the strengthening process is quite comfortable.

The agility attribute enhanced by this potion is not the point. The point is that it can enhance the speed of nerve reflexes. This is a very rare enhancement, and it is also an attribute that every melee fighter dreams of.

A 5% increase may not seem like much, but in a life-and-death battle, victory or defeat is often decided in a split second, and every tiny increase may be a critical victory or defeat point.

So even though there was even a potion in the arsenal that could improve attributes by 6 points, he still decisively chose this thunder. If the strengthening process hadn't been too long and had side effects, he would have drank it long ago.

Now in the next three days, it is foreseeable that there will be no fighting, which is also the best time to drink.

Xu Yue picked up the thunder potion on the table, and his eyes stayed for a moment on the dark blue potion that shone with lightning in the glass bottle. This thing was like liquefied thunder. Just holding it in his hand, he could feel the skin of the bottle touching it. There was a tingling feeling. Without hesitation, Xu Yue quickly pulled out the cork on the medicine bottle, and then poured the entire bottle of medicine into his mouth.

There was a slight thunderous sound, and he felt that his entire tongue was numb. He quickly swallowed the liquid in his mouth, and the numbness slid from his throat to his stomach, and then disappeared.

Putting away the glass bottle in his hand, Xu Yue felt that his body had not changed at all, and felt a little confused.

"Isn't it said that it will have a paralyzing effect? ​​There should be no shelf life for this thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yue, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly began to tremble. Fine electric light began to swim around him, and even his hair began to stand up, making his whole body look like exploding hair.

The violent tremors and lightning lasted for a full three minutes before gradually fading away. However, Xu Yue's body would still shake every few seconds, and his head would explode with lightning flashes from time to time. However, compared with the previous state of twitching and explosive hair, It's undoubtedly much better.

"Huh~ It's a good thing I didn't take this before cleaning up the Imperial City, otherwise I might have fallen into the hands of the Machinery Mission. This strengthening process is really quite sour."

After taking a long breath, Xu Yue felt the numbness all over his body and his body twitching from time to time. His tone was full of joy. He couldn't imagine what it would be like if his body suddenly twitched uncontrollably while fighting an enemy fiercely. What consequences.

"12 hours, that is, it will last until noon tomorrow. Forget it, let's wait until the strengthening effect is over before going out."

Thinking about the duration of the enhancement, Xu Yue smiled bitterly. He had no intention of going out in this state anyway, and he looked like Nicholas Zhao Si when he twitched from time to time.

After drinking the potion, it was now his turn to learn skills. Xu Yue picked up the skill scroll on the table, and the paradise prompt sounded immediately.

[Yes/No learning arrow manipulation]

This scroll is a scroll inherited from the elves, and I don’t know how Beskod got it. It is a type recognized by the paradise and can be learned directly.

Clicking to confirm, the scroll shattered into countless green light spots in Xu Yue's hands, blending into his whole body. With his eyes closed, Xu Yue felt as if he had turned into a towering tree. As the trunk shook, the fallen leaves and branches turned into sharp arrows. Shoot out.

[The hunter has learned the arrow manipulation (active) skill]

"It's a bit interesting. It's more like wooden manipulation than arrow manipulation."

After absorbing the knowledge in his mind, Xu Yue opened his eyes, and a strange inscription symbol appeared in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

After sighing, he looked around, noticed another chair beside him, and raised his eyebrows.

A few minutes later, Xu Yue took a newly broken off chair leg and carefully carved it on the stick with his own blood. After the last stroke was written, the stick glowed with red light, and the complicated blood-colored inscriptions on the surface began. Penetrate inside the stick.

After the inscription completely disappeared, Xu Yue thought, and the stick began to float swayingly.
