I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

[Do you want to use skill breakthrough material*2, breakthrough skill: Secret Slash·One Style? 】

"Ahhh! My hands, my hands are out of control!!"

Cheng Rang looked like he was struggling, and he touched the confirmation button with his trembling fingers in pain and anticipation.

The breakthrough crystal spun and flew towards the skill icon again, and this time, [Higher Protection], which had not moved for a long time on his title bar, suddenly flashed with a dazzling light!

Ding! Accompanied by a crisp system prompt ringtone....

[Superior Protection] The title effect is activated: the luck value is greatly increased, and the effect of this skill breakthrough is maximized!

"Holy shit! I got hit?!"

Upon hearing this reminder, Cheng Rang suddenly let go of his hand covering his eyes and jumped up from the chair.

"Maximizing the breakthrough effect?! Let me see..."

He couldn't wait to open the skill panel, and after carefully reading the skill description that he had read countless times, Cheng Rang's room came with a high-pitched cry that seemed to return to the embrace of human ancestors, which frightened Izayoi who was passing by. I jumped, and I couldn't help but look sideways at the closed door...

"Huh? Did Cheng let that guy get any stimulation from being alone in the room..."

Izayoi, who muttered a few words like this, did not intend to disturb Cheng Rang, who was not sure what state he was in at this time. He just shook his head and walked to the room on the other side, closing the door.

But this cry seems to have no intention of stopping...

"Wuhu! Ouch, ouch, awesome, haha!"

...

"It's so noisy, please keep your voice down!"

Chapter 29 What is this? Secretly kill the entire family?

After Izayoi next door made a dissatisfied sound, Cheng Rang finally calmed down his slightly overexcited mood.

On the latest extra line of words on the skill panel, it reads:

[Additional effect of breakthrough level 2: The degree of negative effects of skills is reduced by 100% (maximized)]

"The impact of negative effects is reduced by 100%, doesn't that mean that it is not affected by negative effects?! Then my skill only has a negative effect!"

In order to test whether this breakthrough effect could really eliminate the restriction of Secret Slash One that cannot learn to use other skills, Cheng Rang immediately found the three blue skill learning scrolls that had been lying quietly in the system backpack for more than a year. .

The three scrolls obtained in the previous lottery were all in a state where they could not be learned. The buttons were gray and could not be clicked at all. Cheng Rang threw them into his backpack without taking another look. This time, he finally had the opportunity to take them out to see what happened. will be something.

Sure enough, under Cheng Rang's shining eyes, the word "Enable or not" finally popped up on the skill scroll that had been motionless in his hand before.

Cheng Rang held three blue active skill learning scrolls in his trembling hands, and he even felt like he wanted to burst into tears.

"How many years...how many years has it been?! I can finally learn new skills from this system! Learn! You can learn anything! No matter what it is, I will learn it!"

Cheng Rang seemed to see a new door of infinite possibilities about to open in front of him.

Although it is unreasonable to say that the skill effect of Secret Slash Style 1 is so strong, after all, there is an upper limit to only one skill. During the fight with Bai Yaksha, Cheng Rang discovered many of his own shortcomings.

Including short hands, poor mobility, AOE scraping, lack of powerful long-range attacks, etc.

Bai Yaksha waved his hand in the sky, and the scene of the overwhelming nuclear bombs smashing down was both pretentious and powerful. Cheng Rang looked at it with envy, always thinking that if he had a chance

After being able to learn new skills from the system, you can also wave your hand like a spell turret to destroy the enemy army thousands of miles away...

【Ding! Successfully learn a new skill: draw the sword (elementary), quickly draw the sword to slash the enemy target in a small area in front, causing 1388 points (125% weapon attack power) damage. Cooling time: 5 seconds]

Three crisp system prompts ruthlessly shattered Cheng Rang's fantasy... and gave him a hard slap.

System: Please wake up.

"What kind of rubbish skills are these! Do you want me to change my job to be a nanny?!" Cheng Rang was so angry that he immediately carried it on his back, jumped up from the chair, and threw himself on the hard bed behind him.

However, within a few seconds of lying on the bed, I was disturbed by a series of non-stop beeps from the system...

【Ding! Successfully unlocked new skills based on level: Secret Slashing Style]

【Ding! Successfully unlocked new skills based on level: Secret Slash·Second Style]

【Ding! Successfully unlocked according to level...

The ding-ding-ding sounds were almost continuous, and they rang for a dozen times before stopping, which surprised Cheng Rang, who was a little frustrated.

? ? ?

"what's the situation?"

Flipping through the skill list again, a large list of newly unlocked skills appeared in the list. According to the skill level process, Rang discovered that these were the skills that he had not been able to unlock and learn from level 1 to level 200 or even after changing jobs. Now he has learned them all at once. Unlocked....

"I'm sorry, so how many skills have I been stuck in the Secret Slash Style 1 that I haven't been able to learn?! This Secret Slash style is available for the whole family... From the second style to the fifth style, there is also an additional style of Secret Slash... ...let me see...."

Pulling down the list, the second to fifth moves after Secret Slashing Family Bucket are skills unlocked at level 5, 10, 15, and 20 respectively, while the Secret Slashing style is unlocked at level 35.

"In the final analysis, the reason is because I fully upgraded the first form in the training ground when I was at level 1..."

He couldn't help but press his temples, which were slightly swollen and throbbing. Cheng Rang could only look at these new skills one by one that he had never had the opportunity to come into contact with...

Sorting it out according to the secret cutting style at the beginning, in summary, the first style is to cut horizontally, the second style is to cut vertically... The third, fourth and fifth styles are to chop diagonally on both sides and stab at the end. It is unpretentious to the extreme and also cold. The most basic weapon moves have no consumption, low skill multipliers, and no cooldown time.

"...Isn't this just a normal attack? Damn!"

Is this useful? ah? Are you telling me that unlocking so many skills is of no use? So far, there is still only one trick that can be used!

【Ding! 】

The system started to beep again, but at this moment, Cheng Rang was almost numb to the beeps. However, even so, he still wanted to click on the red dots that appeared on the system interface quite obsessively. ⒈,O⒉ O O⒊⒎ ⒐⒐.⒉

Then he clicked in one by one. They were nothing more than mosquito meat rewards for unlocking skills. The sum of experience books, gold coins, etc. was not too much.

But in the end, the new red dot on the task list still gave Cheng Rang some motivation.

"Huh? Is there a new mission?"

Cheng Rang, who slid the translucent light screen and switched to the task list, looked at the dozens of additional skill tasks on it and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

[Skill proficiency task: Use Secret Slash · Second Style (0/5) 5 times, reward primary experience book x1, system gold coin 100]

[Skill proficiency task: Use Secret Slash · Three Styles 5 times (0/5), reward primary experience book x2, system gold coins 150]

Each subsequent skill will have a task for players to familiarize themselves with. It can be used either once or five times, and the rewards given are not too many.

But it’s better than giving it for free!

What Cheng Rang wants to get most now is system gold coins, because there are too few ways to obtain system gold coins. If it were not for the compensation of 10,000 yuan after the system upgrade, Cheng Rang would have stayed in Hersharemzrotri for a year. He only saved less than three thousand gold coins.

"Mosquito legs are also meat, not to mention these dozen tasks are easy to complete. The total cost is about five or six thousand, which is not a small amount. Let's do it!"

Deciding to clear all these skill proficiency tasks, Cheng Rang immediately got up from the bed and went out carrying his +999 novice long knife.

"Cheng Rang? Where are you going?"

When passing by the gate of the guild station, Ren met Cheng Rang and saw that he was walking in a hurry, so he asked casually.

Cheng Rang raised his head and smiled: "Oh, it's Ren. It's nothing. I'll take a walk around and I'll be back in a while."

"Want to wander around again?"

Ren was already a little uneasy about Cheng Rang's word "wandering around".

, you must know that the last time Cheng Rang said this, he directly declared war with the leader of Fresgallo, and even smashed a tavern owned by them in the city!

"I, I'll go with you!" Ren quickly put down what he was holding and followed closely behind him.

Chapter 30 Changes

After realizing that Ren was following him with a worried look on his face, Cheng Rang stopped, scratched his head and said, "Are you worried about me...?"

"How could it be!" Ren waved his hand quickly, "If you want to go around, I'm a good guide!"

"Okay, let's go together." Cheng Rang did not refuse.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Outside the box garden, cutting wood piles."

".....Eh?"

Seeing the surprised expression on Ren's face, Cheng Rang explained: "In order to become stronger, you just understand it like this. It can be regarded as training."

Practice?

Ren seemed to be looking forward to the explanation given by Cheng Rang.

"You are already a sword god... you should be very strong. Do you still need to practice so hard? Tomorrow is the competition with Fresgaro's gift. Wouldn't it be better to use it to recharge your energy? ?"

"No, I'm not strong enough...at least not compared to Shiro Yaksha." Cheng Rang and Ren walked out of the guild station side by side and walked towards the outer door of the box garden. Their destination was the vast expanse of land where they arrived. forest.

"ShiroYasha?! Have you ever fought with her?"

"Yeah, he was pushed to the ground and hung."

"..."

Ren didn't even know what to say for a moment.

Shiroyasha is a class ruler. She is the strongest person below the four-digit outer sect of the small garden. She has "organizer authority". NoName has accepted her help before, and Cheng Rang has already challenged himself not long after he came here. Is Shirayaksha the strongest? !

What happened in this short morning...?

Countless questions began to swirl in Ren's mind, making him even more curious about the content of Cheng Rang's upcoming "cultivation".

"Ah, by the way...Didn't Black Rabbit say that he would take you to do a gift appraisal this morning? How could you fight against ShiroYasha-sama?"

Cheng Rang nodded: "I went to Qianyan's shop. Because Bai Yaksha was there at the time, Black Rabbit seemed quite surprised. Then she said she was very strong, so I challenged her to a duel."

"Is this...wait, a duel?! Isn't it a gift game?!" Ren already felt that his mind was a little lost.

However, Cheng Rang still looked calm and calm: "Yes, a duel with life and dignity on the line."

"and you...."

"Stop asking." Cheng Rang raised his hand to interrupt what Ren wanted to say. He seemed to already know what he wanted to ask, and once again gave the reason to the omnipotent contract in the box garden.

"According to the contract, both of us must keep the duel process secret."

"This...is like this, then there's nothing we can do about it."

Ren fell silent after that, and Cheng Rang was also happy to be quiet.

After passing through the bustling city, the area near the outer gate became sparsely populated. The two walked through the long stone passage again, and the road surrounded by large woods appeared in front of them.

Cheng Rang did not choose to move forward on the opened road, but dived into the woods beside the road. He did not stop until the city wall behind him was almost lost in the greenery.

"Just here, there is no one else." Cheng Rang looked around and nodded with satisfaction, "Ren, you'd better stand far away."

"OK!"

After Ren hid behind a giant tree in the distance and stuck his head out to stare at him curiously, Cheng Rang finally took hold of the long sword at his waist and slowly unsheathed it.

So let’s start with the second form of Secret Slash.

[Skill proficiency task: Use Secret Slash · Second Style (0/5) 5 times, reward primary experience book x1, system gold coin 100]

[Combat Skills: Secret Slash · Second Style (the most basic forehand vertical slash with a long sword, the damage is average, can be used after the Secret Slash Style 1, the power and range will be slightly improved)]

The second secret slashing style does not require target locking, so Cheng Rang just picked a direction and released the skill.

"Secret Slash: Second Style!"

As he recited the name of the skill silently in his mind, the blade in Cheng Rang's hand was slightly coated with a layer of white fluorescence. It felt the same as when he used the Secret Slash Style to chop the wooden pile before. His body was driven by the weapon in his hand, and a half-circle was drawn in front of him. The circular arc of light struck the tall trees not far away.

brush--

It could be called an unpretentious slash. A tree as thick as an arm in front of Cheng Rang was directly cut in half. With the sound of rustling among the leaves, it slowly separated and fell to the side. It fell to the side with a thud. When it landed on the ground, a large amount of dust was stirred up, and then it turned into exploding colorful fragments with a crackle.

The task progress also went from (0/5) to (1/5).

But Cheng Rang did not continue to use the second secret cut style. Instead, he immediately turned the blade and used an upward slash - the third secret cut style!

[Combat Skills: Secret Slash · Three Styles (backhand slash with long knife, normal damage, can be used after Secret Slash Two Styles, the power and range will be slightly improved)]

The action of touching the ground with the tip of the knife hadn't even ended. The fluorescent blade left a clear afterimage in mid-air, and then an extremely sharp and dazzling arc shot out of the hand.
