Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 72 The big sword is a man’s romance!
After the two people walked out of the attribute enhancement hall, they immediately saw 04296 standing there waiting.

I have to admit that 04296’s shiny bald head is quite conspicuous no matter where it is placed.

"Finally it's out? Tell me quickly, what good option have you come across? Are you so hesitant?"

04296 stepped forward, slapped Xin Lailai on the back hard, put his hand on Xin Lailai's shoulder, and asked curiously.

"Well, there's the Immortal Prototype and Life Sublimation, and there's also a death battle. I don't think it's very urgent, so I gave it up." Xin Lailai answered truthfully.

"Fuck!"

04296 uttered a curse word and was so surprised that he couldn't even close his jaw.

"Brother, are you trying to save your life? You are so lucky all of a sudden. Will you suddenly choke to death after drinking water?"

"...Brother, I think the last one is unlikely to happen even if I die. You might as well curse me to die on Ling Yuzi's bed."

Xin Lailai answered expressionlessly.

"Ahem, I was a little too outspoken when I was excited."

04296 coughed twice awkwardly, and then continued to ask curiously:
"So brother, tell me quickly how did you do this? With your luck, even if you are lucky enough to get 3 points of luck temporarily by praising Lailai, you should be able to get rewards at the level of extreme physical transformation at most. That’s right?”

Well, the worst option of co-writing was actually chosen by himself...

Xin Lailai didn't know whether to complain about 04296's accurate guess or something else.

"The reason is this..."

Xin Lailai told 04296 about Ling Yuzi being specially turned into a small stove by Shanxi.

"This thief! It's true that she took all of Lai Lai's luck! So much so that when I open a box now, I can even reveal my paradise points!"

After hearing this, 04296 gritted his teeth and greeted Shan Xi.

When Xin Lailai saw this, he couldn't say anything. If it was normal, he would definitely support 04296 with both hands and feet, but this time since it was Ling Yuzi who ultimately benefited, he could only reluctantly turn a blind eye to Shan Xi's actions.

No way, the rare rewards are too delicious.

"Forget it, let's forget about it for now. Anyway, when I am extremely strong, Shan Xi will be the one to take advantage of me."

04296 was angry for a while, and after his anger was almost gone, he looked at Xin Lailai, put his arm around his shoulders, smiled, and said:

"Speaking of which, brother, I remember you shouted something like 'real men should play with big swords and not even with swordsmanship' last night?"

"Um, probably, I should have said that, right?"

Xin Lailai nodded and admitted with a slight embarrassment. After all, due to the influence of various modern works, he had a very deep impression on weapons such as big swords. To describe it in these words:

——No man can refuse a dragon car!The big sword is the romance of men!
04296 saw Xin Lailai's reaction and smiled knowingly.

"Very good, that's no problem. By the way, you probably haven't used up the park points I gave you before. Transfer 160 to me. I just got a good thing!"

good stuff?
When Xin Lailai heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately chose to pay 04296.

[04296 park points have been paid to contractor 160]

"It's done, the beeping warning has finally disappeared, brother, let's go on!"

04296 said, throwing something into Xin Lailai's hands. Xin Lailai looked at it intently and his breath suddenly suffocated.

……

[Passive Skill Scroll·Epee Master: LV.10]

Quality: Legend

Conditions of use: strength and stamina are not less than 20 points

Effect of use: Master immediately [Epee Master: LV.10]

Additional effect: Must master a rare additional ability.

Score: 400++
Introduction: A scroll handmade by an epee master with LV.80 or above. Its value far exceeds that of ordinary master-level passive scrolls.

Price: 1000000 park points
……

It is a master-level passive scroll made by a master of level 80 or above. After using it, you will definitely master the rare-level additional abilities...

"Brother Ritian, this thing..."

"Hey, it's not bad. Didn't I say I would help you with the technical issues?"

04296 put his hand on Xin Lailai's shoulder and chuckled.

"But, brother, my talent is really suitable for..."

"Don't worry, just as you said just now, I can guarantee that your talent in the epee will not be too bad. No matter how bad it is, it should still be at the level of an ordinary person!"

"Really? Can my epee talent really reach the normal level?"

Xin Lailai became excited all of a sudden, and Ling Yuzi's face also became excited.

At the level of ordinary people, this sentence would be almost a mockery to others, but to Xin Lailai it was a huge surprise.

According to what 04296 told him, if a master wants to gain a foothold in the paradise, in addition to the ability of the spell system, a melee-based technique is also essential.

——A master who cannot fight in close combat is not a qualified master.

Xin Lailai naturally understood this truth, but the process of learning sword skills had made him seriously doubt his own technical talent.

"There should be nothing wrong. You know, the first image is very important. For example, when you first came into contact with Tachi, what was your image?"

04296 said with a smile.

"Well, that kind of thin and brittle thing doesn't feel like a brick." Xin Lailai answered without hesitation.

"Look, this is the difference in your innate preference for heavy swords and swords, so it makes sense that your talent in swordsmanship is actually bad, or is it that your brain and body have the same opinion in this regard? "

04296 patted Xin Lailai on the shoulder and made a joke. Then he seemed to remember something. After groping for a while, he threw a bag out of his arms.

"By the way, this is for you."

Xin Lailai took the bag from 04296's hand and looked at the information about the park, feeling a little frightened.
[Obtained soul crystal (small)*120]

"Brother, is this really okay?"

"Don't worry, this is from the 160 paradise points you just gave me. This thing is very cheap, the market price is only 5000 each, and it's easy to get, just smash 12 soul crystals and you'll have it."

04296 said disapprovingly. Xin Lailai's eyelids twitched slightly when he heard this.

What does it mean to just smash 12 pieces of soul crystals and get it...

"Okay, stop being so impatient and go upgrade your skills quickly. I'm waiting to take you to the party of our Anti-Shanxi Alliance in the evening."

04296 urged, Xin Lailai nodded ignorantly, not daring to delay, and hurried towards the skill enhancement hall.

.........

"Is this the Skill Enhancement Hall? It feels very different from the Attribute Enhancement Hall."

Ling Yuzi looked at the building in front of him curiously, walked into the door with Xin Lailai, and were then transported to a reinforced warehouse together.

The virtual screen appears:

[Please select the skills that need to be upgraded]

Xin Lailai did not pay attention to the content on the screen, but first took out the epee master scroll and chose to study.

For a moment, Xin Lailai felt something change in the world in front of him, and a lot of insights emerged in his mind out of thin air. In a trance, Xin Lailai seemed to see figures waving big swords one after another.

Gradually, the figures of those dancing swords became clearer and clearer, and gradually decreased.

Finally, the remaining phantom suddenly leaped forward, bent its waist, and struck with an extremely heavy sword blade without any warning.

Xin Lailai, who was immersed in the phantom's movements, had no time to react and faced the sword directly.

boom!
A huge buzzing sound suddenly exploded, and then a strange sense of pleasure arose. Xin Lailai felt that the scene in front of him suddenly faded away. The darkness and phantoms were instantly shattered, and the scene in front of him returned to normal.

[Acquired Passive Skill·Epee Master: LV.10]

……

[Epee Master: LV.10 (Passive)]

Skill effect: The attack power of the epee is increased by 50%, and the epee skill is greatly improved.

LV.10 additional ability, the heart of the sword is clear: if the mind is not distracted, the heart of the sword will automatically become clear.

Tip: [Sword Heart Transparency] cannot be upgraded in the Sanctuary Paradise. Contractors are asked to understand this on their own.

Upgrade cost: 10000 paradise points, soul crystal*1
……

"The sword's heart is clear..."

Xin Lailai looked at the epee master's description and suddenly felt a bit sore in his nose.

Finally, he finally had a normal talent.

The stuckness in his sword skills and the pitfalls in his talent made Xin Lailai almost think that he was a real useless waste.

Fortunately, that bastard God finally didn't block all the roads for him.

"What about the heavy sword? One day, I wonder if I can go down to the mountains and rivers and crush them with one sword like the figures I saw in those reflections just now?"

Xin Lailai recalled the figures holding heavy swords that he had just seen in his mind, with a look of longing in his eyes.

"Lailai, who wields the heavy sword, should look very handsome."

Ling Yuzi, who had also digested his thoughts, looked at Xin Lailai and said with some expectation.

"Well, there will be a chance to see it."

Xin Lailai smiled and touched Ling Yuzi's head, then continued to focus on the enhanced interface.

The upgrade of the heavy sword master requires soul crystals, which he cannot obtain for the time being.

But then again, being able to master the master's LV.10 passive at the first level, now he can basically walk sideways in front of most first-level contractors.

According to the standards described in 04296, at the first level, whether it is a contractor or a character encountered in a derivative world, the skill passive level is generally around LV 20 to 30 at most.

Unless you can enter a technique-specialized world like Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Rurouni Kenshin or Fistwish Asura, you may encounter a character with master-level technique passiveness, and the maximum will not exceed Master LV.10.

But this type of world is usually specially prepared for the top contractors in the first level, in order to give those geniuses the opportunity to break through their skills to the master level in the first level.

Theoretically, there is a master LV.10 passive technique, which is completely sufficient up to the third level.

"The rest are just a few active skills and passive spells."

Xin Lailai glanced at his skill bar, glanced at the enhancement cost of only 2000 paradise points per level, and pressed the spell chip directly.

……

[Intermediate spell chip control has been upgraded to LV.5, you can choose an additional reward]

1. The solidity of the chip is increased by 10% 2. The sharpness of the chip is increased by 10%

3. Chip mana consumption reduced by 10%

……

Xin Lailai decisively chose the first option. The sturdiness of the spell chip was the most important. The mana consumption could be reduced to a minimum if he became more proficient. As for the sharpness, no one would really rely on the spell chip in this age. Hurt, right?
"However, is this slightly higher-end skill an additional bonus for selecting once at level 5?"

Xin Lailai looked at the upgraded spell chips. After selecting additional abilities, the price for further enhancements changed from 2000 to 4000 points.

Originally, he thought that this thing would be the same as the primary spell chip if it was raised to level 10 in one go, and there would be no strengthening rewards.

This is a little surprise.

So, Xin Lailai continued to press the enhancement options on the side.

For ordinary first-level contractors, the cost of strengthening tens of thousands of paradise points is sky-high, but for the current Xin Lailai, it is really not a big deal.

You must know that he still has a copy of the perfect ghost blood of the deceased that has not been sold, and the treasure chest obtained from Demon Slayer World has not yet been opened.

"That's it."

Xin Lailai looked at his active skill bar and nodded with satisfaction.

[Intermediate Spell Chip Control: LV.MAX]

Skill consumption: 2~10 mana
Skill effect: Generate spell chips and control them freely.

Additional effect: wafer robustness increased by 60%

……

[Intermediate Holy Light Healing Technique: LV.MAX]

Skill consumption: 20~200 mana
Skill effect: Summons holy light to the designated area, causing a total of 640 to 6400 health points of healing effect to all units within the range of the holy light.

Additional effect: treatment effect increased by 60%

……

It took 116000 paradise points to fully max out two very practical spells. Not to mention anything else, just the amount of intermediate Holy Light Healing Technique alone gave me several extra lives during the battle.

"This finally makes me look like a master."

Spell Chip + Holy Light Healing + Fireball.

Now, he estimates that as long as he throws out these three skills, there will immediately be a bunch of first-order contractors begging to form a team with him.

Then, Xin Lailai focused on the magic manipulation specialization. Instead of rushing to strengthen it, he entered a state of deep meditation.

According to 04296, it is more likely to learn rare additional abilities by doing this.

"Lai Lai bless, Lai Lai bless, give me a rare additional ability!"

Xin Lailai muttered incoherently, then pressed hard on the enhancement option and closed his eyes.

The next second, a strange feeling came from the depths of his soul, and Xin Lailai's consciousness suddenly fell into the same trance as when he strengthened the epee master before.

A lot of knowledge that can barely be understood was instilled.

As the intensification came to an end, an indescribable sense of refreshment rose from the depths of Xin Lailai's soul, causing him to moan in comfort.

[Mana Manipulation Specialization has been upgraded to: LV.10]

Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi slowly opened their eyes and looked at the screen with anxiety:
……

[Mana Manipulation Specialization: LV.10]

Skill effect: Mana intensity is increased by 30%, and mana manipulation skills are greatly improved.

LV.10 additional ability, soul cleansing: mana potential level +1, soul potential level +1
Upgrade cost: 5000 paradise points, soul crystal (small)*5
……

"Long live Lailai!"

Seeing the moment of soul cleansing, Xin Lailai hugged Ling Yuzi directly and kissed him on the face to soothe the excitement in his heart.

Although it is not the "One Source of All Magics" that he wants most, which can directly increase the level of magic potential, it is already a huge surprise to be able to get the "Soul Cleansing" that can increase the level of magic power and soul potential.

After all, potential is like a foundation. As its attributes get higher and higher, it will become more and more difficult to improve it. If it is said that the difficulty of improving the first-level mana potential with 20 points of intelligence attributes is 1, then 50 points of attributes It always starts at least 5.

Although the increase in potential level will not improve his talent, it can directly double the ratio of mana and soul energy provided by each point of intelligence attribute and soul strength.

From the perspective of income, improving his potential will be more beneficial to his next world than improving his qualifications.

After a brief moment of excitement, Xin Lailai looked at the skills on the screen, took out a large group of soul crystals (small), and raised the number of upgrades for both spell specialization and mana control specialization to 10.

[Spell Specialization has been upgraded to LV.20]

[Mana Manipulation Specialization has been upgraded to LV.20]

……

[Spell Specialization: LV.20]

Skill effect: Spell power is increased by 50%, and spell proficiency is greatly improved.

LV.10 additional ability, deep meditation: no self, no object, an ethereal state.

LV.20 additional ability, focused spellcasting: spellcasting speed increases with the improvement of intelligence attributes, currently increased by 8%.

……

[Mana Manipulation Specialization: LV.20]

Skill effect: Mana intensity is increased by 50%, and mana manipulation skills are greatly improved.

LV.10 additional ability, soul cleansing: mana potential level +1, soul potential level +1.

LV.20 additional ability, precise casting: Mana control ability increases with the improvement of intelligence attributes, currently increased by 8%.

……

As 04296 said, the additional abilities learned for the first time by master-level passives are the most effective, and they will become more and more general the next time they are learned.

This has nothing to do with personal potential, but a matter of passive growth at the master level.

If these two techniques can be passively upgraded to the master level, the additional abilities will undergo a huge transformation.

"That will make it all over."

Xin Lailai took a long breath and looked at his and Ling Yuzi's personal panels, his eyes moving slightly.

……

A real makeover.

There is no doubt that the current Xin Lailai is completely different from the former rookie who just entered the paradise.

The fear in the world of Demon Slayer, struggling on the edge of collapse again and again, finally turned into the harvest of this moment.

"Whoo~"

Xin Lailai took a long breath and felt inexplicably. With his sigh, a ray of light seemed to rise behind him, reflecting his slightly melancholy back.

"..."

This is not a description, there is really light behind him.

Xin Lailai looked at the holy light behind his head, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Zi Yuzi, stop playing, it's time to go."

Xin Lailai reminded Zheng Huan who was playing with magic chips next to him.

"Oh."

The spell chip beside Ling Yuzi then dispersed the Holy Light Healing Technique floating behind his and Xin Lailai's heads, and he responded.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the skill enhancement warehouse, Ling Yuzi used his psychic communication ability to say hello to Xin Lailai and then went straight into the soul space.

Playing like this outside would easily attract the attention of passers-by, so she chose to go directly into the soul space and continue playing.

"..."

Xin Lailai didn't know what to say and could only helplessly shake his head and smile.

There is a saying, the little bits and pieces of a child's mind are quite cute.

"However, strengthening skills is much faster than expected."

Xin Lailai was originally prepared to face the same pain as attribute enhancement, but he didn't expect it to be unusually easy, even a little addictive?

Xin Lailai glanced at the skill enhancement hall behind him.

For some reason, he always felt that this place looked much more impressive than the attribute enhancement hall.

It’s as if I’m telling you to come here and take a walk twice more.

Speaking of which, Xin Lailai suddenly remembered that 04296 had told him that the most luxurious building in the entire Sanctuary Paradise was called the Equipment Enhancement Hall.

If you have a chance, you can go and see it.

Xin Lailai was still curious about what kind of building could actually bear the term "most luxurious"?
