The Truth of Magic

Chapter 622 The strength of the nine swords, the sword of the people

For soldiers, there is a kind of pain called losing the weapon in hand.

This is not something that can be solved by simply picking up another type of weapon halfway.

For example, the specialty "Weapon Specialization" can specify a "weapon" to increase the attack by 1 level, and "Specialized Weapon" can also specify a weapon to increase the damage by 2 points.

There were even high-level specialization weapons and high-level specialization weapons in the future. Once the weapon was changed, unless someone like Zhao Xu who had the "chaotic double wash" could start over, everyone else would have to struggle to return to the original weapon.

This is also where the fighter is weak. After spending a full four specialties, the increased power is superimposed, and it is only the strength of a ring of magic "God's Grace".

But Zhao Xu didn't just care about that.

Being able to transfer other weapons over means that some "specialties" of designated weapons can also be transferred by relying on this ability, which depends on his later digging.

For the next half a day, the old man Ying Bubai broke down the entire Nine Swords move system bit by bit and explained it to Zhao Xu.

Especially when he encountered a complicated place, he would easily activate his "preaching" ability and indoctrinate Zhao Xu directly.

During the whole process, Zhao Xu became more and more frightened the more he listened.

If Arthur didn't have "the existence of magic", any traverser who came into contact with "Nine Swords" rashly would think that they had come into contact with a world of martial arts.

But a closer comparison reveals a slight difference.

What really moved Zhao Xu was that Nine Swords' moves were all "special abilities" that could not be suppressed by the anti-magic field.

Slowly, Zhao Xu also changed from being a passive indoctrination to asking the old man Ying Bubai for advice.

In particular, most of his questions are from tricky angles, falling into angles that ordinary people can easily take for granted.

"Are you really a mage, not a fighter?"

Suddenly, Ying Bubai looked deeply surprised, "If it weren't for your bone age that can't deceive people, otherwise I would have thought that you have been immersed in martial arts for at least ten years. The level of attack power really depends on each person. The individual's ability level and natural understanding."

"But in terms of breadth, it's more about time accumulation. In particular, I can be sure that your previous vocational training will not involve military weapons, but you can still master them, which is somewhat beyond my expectation."

Said the old man Ying Bubai's eyes were small, "You boy, you are not a mage, but you have the heart of a warrior."

Zhao Xu smiled at this.

Whoever has been a soldier for ten years will never be able to erase the memory of his body.

And for the next whole day, after Ying Bubai began to practice every move of the Nine Swords system for Zhao Xu, his eyes widened even further, lest he miss the key points.

During the whole process, Ying Bubai also demonstrated his own level. His advice hit the point straight to the point, without any ambiguity at all. The clinker was like a graduate student in the mathematics department who went directly to teach elementary school mathematics.

"Sir, that'Desert Wind Sect' is a unique move of the swordsman. I probably won't be a swordsman anymore." Zhao Xu said with an embarrassed look on his face.

As a pragmatist, listening to the essentials of Mofeng is like when he was learning the Nine Yangs, he suddenly heard the Nine Yin Scriptures from next door.

Naturally, he readily accepted this, which was equivalent to inquiring about the enemy's situation in advance.

However, among the three major professions, swordsmen have the lowest basic attack improvement and the least life. As a melee fighter, they have low strength and low defense. Much less natural.

"I'll teach you, you just listen to it, so much nonsense." The old man Ying Bubai shook his head.

"This desert wind's first-tier move 'Red Lotus Sword', after being activated, the weapon can burst into blazing flames in this round, and in the end, each blow can increase the damage by 1-6 + the level of the martial artist."

While talking, Ying Bubai read out the essentials of the "Sword of the Red Lotus", and the wooden sword shook on the spot, instantly bursting into flames, like an invisible fire dragon gushing out.

"Have you understood?"

Zhao Xu shook his head.

If he is not a genius in martial arts, except for the level of priest, otherwise he has never enjoyed the refreshing feeling of soaring in place after hearing the Tao.

In particular, he didn't follow the swordsmanship, and he couldn't use the Desert Wind faction at all.

"Rotten wood." Ying Bubai stomped his feet angrily, "Your talent, in the Eastern Empire, even the royal family would be kicked out of blood."

Zhao Xu grinned when he heard that, "It's not possible. I haven't used many weapons or hit these with bare hands now."

When Ying Bubai heard this, his eyes froze for a moment, "Have you heard the effect of this move?"

Zhao Xu nodded.

"Like weapon enchantment, the 'flame' equal to '+1' value also increases the damage by 1-6. The key point is that this ability also has an unlimited martial arts level. This move can improve the multi-weapon attack. power."

As the half-year game period passed, among Arthur's rangers, most of the multi-weapon streams declined, because they were too weak compared to the shooting stream.

Multi-weapon itself still needs enough expertise to cooperate, even if the professional ability can provide it, it is far from enough.

At the same time, the rangers also found that when the resources are the same, the damage output of multi-weapon is actually weaker than that of single-weapon, and the number of defectors is even more.

"It's okay to be able to see the purpose of the moves keenly. At least these moves will not be dusty with you."

Ying Bubai nodded and said, "As far as what I just taught you, why can you tell me why the three schools of Steel Soul, Iron Heart, and White Crow are the top three schools of Nine Swords?"

Zhao Xu didn't expect that the other party would actually ask him the conclusion he had just told him.

Fortunately, he didn't swallow the jujube just now. The Nine Swords system was the system he pursued in his previous life as a warrior. However, he was not talented enough at that time, and he didn't plan to marry or marry Dongtu again. Naturally, he lost the opportunity to get the Nine Swords.

After being reborn again at this time, while it sounds delicious, it is also a kind of nostalgia for the previous life.

At this time, Zhao Xu calmly went through these moves in his mind.

Nine Swords is divided into nine factions, and each faction is divided into moves and footwork from the first level to the ninth level. Generally speaking, each level of each faction has about one to three moves.

It's not like a mage, there are as many as ten or twenty kinds of transformation spells in one ring.

And a 20th-level warblade can only learn 13 spells at most, so naturally every choice is cautious.

"I won't say much about the Iron Heart Flow and the White Crow Flow, but I will use the 'Steel Soul Flow' as an example."

"With a level of 'Perfect Spirit', you can use a Concentration Check instead of a 'Will Saving' check if necessary."

"Similarly, there are the second-level 'Concentration' (focus instead of reflection), and the third-level 'Spiritual Body' (focus instead of toughness). These three moves use the easier-to-stack 'focus' skills instead of immunity. More importantly, it will not fail even if the realization is 1."

Zhao Xu knew that he had dialed here, and the other party could understand.

It's okay for Zhao Xu to be almost invincible with a bunch of spells. Most adventurers have their own weak immunity and are easy to be targeted. Choosing one or two of these three spells can perfectly avoid their own weaknesses.

More importantly, in the specific performance of the 1-20 level, even if the performance is timid, the physical condition is extremely uncomfortable at the time, or the reaction is very slow, when the superimposed performance value is 1 level, it will not fail. is the most critical.

This avoids the possibility of "the weak defeating the strong".

For example, if Zhao Xu has mastered these, if the Concentration Check itself has an 80th-level bonus, then even if his performance is 1, it means that he must pass all the immunity not higher than the 80th level!

Instead of his 80th-level will saving throw, but because the performance evaluation was 1st-level, he was blown away by a "mentally handicapped spell".

Mastering these three moves gave him the confidence to decide whether to pass or not to simply compare the values ​​without relying on specific realizations! That's how the strong don't rely on luck!

At this time, Zhao Xu also seemed to be talking vigorously, and continued to talk, "The 'Jade Slash' on the second floor of Steel Soul can rely on the understanding of combat and the spirit of sharpening, find opportunities for weaknesses, and transform ordinary attacks into ignoring Armor touch attack."

As he spoke, he struggled a bit and said, "It's already similar to a weakened version of Ghost Strike."

"As for the 'catapult slash' of the fourth ring, it is theoretically a continuous charge, or it can be turned 180 degrees to sprint. I don't need to say more about the significance of charge to Arthur."

"When it comes to the 'Speed ​​Body' on the eighth floor, this footwork can turn each round into a double swift action."

Speaking of this, Zhao Xu was a little startled.

He didn't expect to break through the movement limit so quickly.

If he has mastered this footwork, then every next round will be two instant spells and one standard motion spell.

Compared with other people who have lost the strength to suck milk, it is also a round of double dharma, he has already achieved a round of three dharma.

"As for the 'time still' on the ninth floor, it can carry out two rounds of full-round attacks in a row, and from the outside world, only one round of time has passed."

Zhao Xu couldn't help shaking his head at this. Although the extra movements were somewhat limited, the "swift burst" that the sorcerer had worked so hard to obtain was a different way in the Nine Swords system.

Not to mention the "White Crow Faction" with "Charge" at its core.

The first "White Crow Tactic" of Nine Swords, at the cost of a quick action, directly reverses the torrent of time, changes the reaction of teammates, and changes directions so that teammates can obtain a means of quick burst that is similar to no cost——

There is an extra round of "bullet time" for no reason.

"Then let you choose now, which move do you practice first?" Suddenly the old man Ying Bubai asked.

Zhao Xu frowned slightly at this, "If I pursue the power of iron heart, I must first learn a martial art of the 'Iron Heart School'."

As Zhao Xu spoke, he showed strange eyes, "I'll pick the 'Sword Blade Barrier' on the second floor."

Blade barrier.

This move involves swinging the weapon back and forth, ready to parry an incoming blow.

Once the opponent made a move, Zhao Xu was able to use lightning speed, attack first, and intercept the opponent's attack with his weapon first.

"How do you grasp the timing?" Ying Bubai asked.

The other party didn't elaborate on this trick at first. Zhao Xu thought about it for a while and answered, "I think it should be when I grasp the weapon like a part of the arm of the body, I can grasp it."

Naturally, once this trick was used, Zhao Xu's defense ability was not determined by his own defense level, but by his attack level.

Zhao Xu was even able to watch the opponent use a move and decide whether to use it based on the power of the move, which was also his dominance.

"Very good." Ying Bubai was obviously satisfied with Zhao Xu's answer.

"Now that you know it, try it."

After all, the old man Ying Bubai seemed to have changed, and he stabbed out of the sky like a meteor, like an antelope hanging horns, nowhere to be found.

And the key point is that Ying Bubai's use at this time is a contact attack that ignores armor - "Jade Slash".

Zhao Xu's eyes also dazzled on the spot, completely taken away by the opponent's sword light.

He also felt that he had lost all the defense brought by spells.

At this time, he is the most ordinary white board, and can only rely on basic dodging instincts to evade attacks.

But this moment.

However, Zhao Xu felt the warmth from the "Human Paradise" in his hand, and a familiar force gushed out of it in an instant.

In the next second, the epee in his hand would automatically move without wind.

Relying on the physical strength manual, even if Zhao Xu didn't have spells, his basic strength was 13 points, and it was not a problem at all to hold an epee with both hands tightly.

In an instant, he saw the shaking of the epee in his hand.

In the next instant, the sound of wind hit.

There was a muffled "bang".

Zhao Xu suddenly realized that he miraculously moved the epee across the air, blocking the conquering sword of the old man Ying Bubai.

"How do you feel?" the old man Ying Bubai asked with a smile.

"A sense of gratification."

Zhao Xu could hear his own heartbeat at this moment, "It's like we are driving fast on the earth, and then brake suddenly in front of us, and when we can't avoid it, we suddenly forcibly change lanes perfectly, that feeling of surviving after a catastrophe. "

As he said that, he also looked at his epee with surprised eyes. If he had been slower just now, he would have been pierced by the sword.

But if you get faster, you will also miss the wooden sword. Only when you are in the most extreme state can you successfully block it.

If he really changed himself, he would definitely adopt a more conservative dodge method instead of gambling his life like this.

His behavior just now was like wearing an iron glove, forcibly catching the oncoming flying knife.

He could catch it, but if he missed it, it would be the result of the dead body on the spot. Naturally, ordinary people would not gamble their lives like this.

Only the moves can make him have this kind of confidence!

"Understood?" Ying Bubai asked.

"Understood." Zhao Xu also responded.

"Let's go then." The old man Ying Bubai waved his hand at Zhao Xu as he spoke.

Zhao Xu couldn't help being surprised, "Senior, haven't I learned the 'Strength of Iron Heart' yet?"

"Get the hell out of here. You think I just taught you? I taught it."

Speaking of which, the old man Ying Bubai looked at the heavy sword in Zhao Xu's hand, "Heaven of humanity."

"It is the sword of all peoples. As long as you have more people under your command, its power will become stronger. In the future, it will tell you all your knowledge about the Nine Swords."
