Shadow Covenant

Chapter 66 "Curved Sword"

——"Two-Weapon Combat "Specialty": Years of training not only make your left and right hands equally flexible, but also give you a unique insight on the road of dual-wielding combat, and you can easily use both hands in combat. Each additional attack with the weapon gives you +1 to the number of attacks and a -1 penalty on attack damage rolls. "

——"I'll let you go when I count to three! The Kobolds surrounded the entire kobold tribe by themselves. After 5 minutes, the surviving kobolds cursed in Common Tongue, but only the cold blades and the Kobolds greeted them Whispering like a god of death. One, two, one, two..."

……

This is a very good combat ability. After mastering this feat, it means that Woody will use two-weapon fighting again, and will not be punished by two-weapon fighting. In addition to increasing damage, it can also greatly increase the hit rate .

Among the saints, having expertise means solidifying abilities.

That is to say, in the case of normal physical condition.

When Woody fights with two weapons, there is no longer a situation where he misses due to lack of proficiency.

——"Clang clang clang!"

After obtaining the specialization, Woody couldn't help but take the weapon in his hand, and made another series of attacks on the pitted wooden stake in front of him.

This time, the two weapons, one long and one short, had already turned into afterimages in his hands, retreating as his body moved forward.

In less than three seconds, he had already left six new sword marks on the stake, and the depth of the sword marks was exactly the same, which shows the control and stability brought by his expertise.

After exercising for a while, Willando brought the maid pushing the dining car to the wooden house at the back of the wine estate.

Obviously, the banquet should not be over at this point, it was this silly girl who left early.

But her mother didn't say anything, and Woody naturally wouldn't spoil the fun.

Very calmly accepted the girl's feeding.

Today's lunch is richer, perhaps because of the Harvest Festival.

Half a roast suckling pig with crispy skin, half fried lamb ribs, sea fish and oyster soup, and a one-meter-long meat floss bread.

It may cost more than 5 gold coins to put this meal in the tavern outside.

Woody put down his weapon and sat directly on the lawn, accompanied by the warm afternoon sun, and began to eat. It happened that he was also hungry now, and he would answer Veranduo's questions from time to time while eating.

I don't know why these two days, except for sleeping at night, Veranduo has been around him almost all the time, either watching him train, or pestering him to ask him questions, especially after knowing that he was being killed by a wandering After an alchemist is accepted as an apprentice, his curiosity is stronger than that of a cat.

Woody also just picked out some ordinary adventure details and told Veranduo, but this was enough to make the noble girl who only limited the information from the outside world to poetry scripts listen to it fascinated.

Of course, she doesn't envy this kind of life. Her current life is good enough, and she doesn't need to take risks to accumulate wealth and improve her situation in order to gain a higher status.

Therefore, after Woody finished speaking, she turned to persuade her cousin not to think about leaving home to take risks.

The past few days of training made her see that her cousin seemed to have changed a lot, and he began to pursue strength instead of being locked in the room and not going out like before.

Woody just smiled and didn't answer.

If Asenland was like Grandy, he might really think about living this kind of life, but in Asenland, the current stability is just the eve of the storm, under the turbulent waves, who can be alone when the thunder rolls.

Seeing Woody's expression, Weilando knew that he was still not giving up. She wanted to persuade her, but a voice came from behind her ear.

"Vilando, are you here?"

"Cousin Becky?"

Veranduo responded subconsciously, and at the corner of a corridor in a courtyard, two figures appeared just in time.

They are all dressed in elegant and gorgeous aristocratic clothing, have the unique blond curly hair of the Edith family, and have similar faces, so it is obvious that they are related by blood.

"Betsy Edith." vs. "Halrick Edith."

They are also the two heirs of the Edith family who have devoted the most effort to the younger generation.

Not only was he taught by various famous teachers since he was a child, but he was also sent to the Higher Master Academy of St. Lawrence when he grew up, and even became a disciple of a court mage.

After they became official mage apprentices, the Edith family put even more weight on them and regarded them as future heirs.

It is said that the gold coins spent by the two of them are more than four figures every year, not counting the various resources sent.

In "Saint", the mage advancement of the aborigines is not as simple as that of the players.

Apart from fighting, they were still studying and studying in the tower, either copying spell scrolls or analyzing spell models, all of which required piles of money.

However, this pile of aboriginal spellcasters, whether in terms of spell level or spellcasting expertise, is more than one level stronger than the fast-leveling and advanced spellcasting players.

In the previous life "Saint", the achievement of legends and the success rate of completing the test of destiny.

If the player is one in a thousand, then the aborigines are one percent.

The reason is that in terms of accumulation of knowledge, the aborigines have more advantages.

A mage is a profession that requires the accumulation of knowledge. It does not give you the same expertise, and your strength is almost the same as his.

Spells are just tools, and how to use them depends on the person who uses them.

Asenland's most powerful mage organization, under the sculpture at the entrance of the "Thousand Towers Club" college, there are engraved mottos from the founder of the college to all college students.

"Compared with spells, the use of wisdom is the most important." - "Wand of Morning Star" Billel Borden.

……

"Grandpa called you just now, hurry up! Cousin Woody, long time no see..."

The young man named Becky said hello to Woody while talking to Verando.

"Ah? Okay, I'll go over now, cousin, eat slowly, there's not enough for the kitchen."

Veranduo hastily confessed and then hurriedly resigned. Before she had time to clean up, her heart was occupied by the stern face of her grandfather. Since she was a child, she was afraid of the grandfather who looked at her coldly.

Woody said that he didn't mind, and urged Verando to get busy first, and it wouldn't be too late to talk when he was done.

As for the nominal cousin, they also greeted each other in turn.

He had seen both of them when he was a child.

The relationship is average, neither far nor close, and there are not so many deep hatreds, just nodding acquaintances.

Especially after the two of them went to St. Lawrence to study magic, their relationship became more distant. At the annual gathering, they basically treated Woody as air, but they didn't deliberately target it.

Woody, who is familiar with the psychology of aboriginal mages, naturally knows that this is a typical spellcaster's sense of superiority.

Especially in the nobles, it is especially prominent.

When magic becomes a weapon used by a small number of people, the degree of superiority will gradually expand with the improvement of his ability, until in the end he will look down on any creature other than the caster, like a giant dragon.

To the two of them, Woody's greeting was like ordinary breathing.

It didn't arouse the interest of the two of them.

Naturally, Woody didn't want to talk to this group of nobles whose eyes were above the top. He cared about them as much as he cared about the knife in his hand.

The long sword and dagger originally made of fine steel have many gaps in the body of the sword after many battles, especially after the battle with the monster and the earth element.

At least get rid of the weapons before leaving Palermo.

If you really want to take this weapon to take risks, two spare long swords are probably not enough.

If possible, he would like to ask the blacksmith to create a handy weapon for himself.

In the early stage, if it is only for sahuagin, it doesn't matter what kind of weapon it is, but if you go out and encounter large monsters such as ogres or mountain giants in the future, you must have a suitable weapon.

There are many kinds of weapons that the demon hunters of the Shadow Snake School are good at.

But in the last life, Woody has basically not changed the type of weapon since he held that type of weapon.

That is - "Qu Dao", also known as Snake Head Sword and Curved Sword in a certain place in the West, and "Wu Hook" in the East.

Most curved knives are curved in reverse, the concave surface is the blade, and the back is bow-shaped.

Woody is good at rare types of knives.

——"Big Curved Knife"

The blade is single-edged and snake-shaped, and it is heavier than ordinary curved knives, with a thicker and longer back. It is more effective than ordinary straight swords whether it is slashing or chopping.

But it is also very troublesome to carry. If there is no dimensional wonder, it is usually carried on the shoulder.

This type of weapon is not common in Asenland, or it is almost non-existent. The extraordinary curved sword with +3 enchantment was found by Woody in the ruins of a long-decayed kingdom in other planes.

The only thing Asen Rant would say is similar is probably the curved scimitar often used by thousands of sea pirates, and the Damascus long knife used by desert bandits.

If there is a chance to go to the Fairy Wilderness, the sabers used by centaurs there are also similar.

Hopefully there will be good news tonight, Woody looked at the sun still hanging in the sky.

Without thinking about it, I started training again after eating.

The physique of a demon hunter allows him to far exceed the stamina and resilience of ordinary people. He has to accelerate the mastery of the melee expertise mastered by various professions in his previous life.

Only in this way can he gain a negligible sense of security in the plane where the sky is about to fall...

　It seems that it cannot be replaced, so please send it again.

　　——"Drink it, son of a bitch!"

　　——"Drink it and you won't remember anything!"

　　Ask for recommendations, monthly tickets, and follow-up reading, laughing.
