Mission: City Defense Iron Guard · One ]

The skill points that were upgraded by winning the tournament championship before, Lan has not used it, mainly because now the skill bar has not been opened much, and the skills that Lan wants cannot be opened.

What Lan wants most is the [French Seal] related skills, but now the whole piece is gray.

Among the [Battle] skills, most of the skills are gray.

The Witcher 3’s skill panel is divided into four levels, and only when the previous level points are enough for the corresponding skill points can the next level of skills be opened.

Each level requires 8/20/30 skill points. That is, it takes 8 skill points to open the second-level skill panel in the first-level skill, and the second-level panel costs 20 skill points to open the third-level panel.

Lan has now spent 10 skill points on the first level skill, and has long opened the second level skill.

The skill setting of “The Witcher 3” is actually very interesting, some low-level skills can get qualitative changes after reaching the level, while many high-level skills will provide a chicken rib. This leads players to sometimes prefer to order lower-level skills rather than upgrade higher-level skills.

In the [Battle] skill, there are four skills in the first level, which are:

[Muscle Memory]: Quick-attack damage increased by 25%. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

[Strength Training]: Damage increased by 25%. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

[Arrow Offset]: The right block can bounce the arrow and double the damage. Epinephrine increase : +3% (3/3)

[Lightning Reaction]: Slow motion when aiming at the crossbow is reduced by 45%. Epinephrine toxin increases: +3%. （3/3）

[Mind Resolved (Gray)]: 100% reduction in adrenaline lost when injured. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

The effects shown here are full-level. There is no need to add the latter two skills, and Lane never orders them in the game. Now there are five second-level skills corresponding to these first-level skills:

[Precision Heavy Hit]: The chance of a quick attack critical hit is increased by 10%, and the damage of a quick attack critical attack is increased by 75%. Adrenergic toxin increases by +5%. （5/5）

[Crushed Bones]: 10% increase in critical strike chance, 75% increase in critical hit, +5% increase in adrenaline toxin. （5/5）

[Immovable as a mountain]: Damage from attacks when dodging is reduced by 100%. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

[Cruel Heart]: Each time a crossbow arrow hits a target, it will increase by 0.2 adrenaline. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

[Undead (Gray)]: When the vitality drops to 0, if there are still adrenaline points, you can use adrenaline to restore life. The amount of response depends on the number of adrenaline points used. Plus 100%. Adrenergic toxin increases: +5%. （5/5）

Lan’s most eye-catching is the [Undead] in it, which is a skill that can be pointed out in the game, as long as there is adrenaline toxin, he is not afraid of death!

Unfortunately, adrenaline toxin is a unique power obtained by the demon hunter in the potion body transformation, and Lan can’t order it. After thinking about it, Lan finally added the skill points to [Immobile as a Mountain].

[Immovable as a mountain]: The damage value of attacks when dodging is reduced by 40%. Epinephrine toxin increases: +2%. （2/5）

When you reach level five, the damage reduction will reach 100%. What is this concept? The concept is that even if there is a warlock on the opposite side to clear the field, even if Lane is within the opponent’s attack range, as long as Lane makes a tumbling and dodging move, he will not be harmed.

This is “immovable as a mountain”, this is “dimensional walking”, this is a card game bug in the real world.

From the point of view of effect, this skill is even more “magic” than the magic of those warlocks, and it is simply an incomprehensible existence in this world, which belongs to a dimensionality reduction blow.

It’s a pity that to get such god-level special effects, you have to point this skill to the full level.

After obtaining this future divine skill, Lan closed his eyes and wanted to feel the changes in his body, but found that [Immobile Like a Mountain] had improved by these two levels, but his physical fitness had not improved at all.

This couldn’t help but make Rann frown, which was very different from the situation he had planned.

Why do [Muscle Memory] and [Intensity Training] have corresponding physical fitness improvements every level, is it because these two skills are types that simply improve basic combat effectiveness? Or is it because of the secondary skill that the physical fitness is no longer improved?

If he has more skill points in his hand, Lane can click on the other skills and verify his conjectures one by one.

Pity.

In the end, it is still poor, and skill points are not enough.

You can only wait for extra skill points to be tested later. Fortunately, now there are people under him, and the speed of upgrading has finally ushered in a qualitative leap. Not only can multi-line work be possible, but each task is also much more efficient.

For example, today’s task of finding the arsonist may be simple in the game. Find someone to chat, turn on the senses of the demon hunter, follow the clues and run a few laps along the map, and you can do it in ten minutes.

But in reality, Lan does not have the detective skills of the senses of the demon hunter, and no matter how much time he is given, it may only be a pockmark.

And the city defense army? Ten people, carpet expanded, and they themselves also have a bit of the responsibility of later generations of jingcha, belonging to professional counterparts.

With these city defense forces, Lan can do many tasks that he could not do before.

It had risen to level ten in the previous year, and now it is one level in one day. The invincible road is just around the corner!

Lane paints himself a pie and enjoys the future, even though he knows it’s definitely a dream. Then he suddenly stood up and shouted at the bar owner:

“Give each of my warriors another drink! ”

This generosity drew cheers from the lads.

“Honor Lord Lannister! ”

One hand raised his glass to greet Lan, and the sound of the musicians in the bar mixed with the harmony of the man’s voice, which made people’s blood rush.

Rann was drinking another glass of spirits, and in the fog, a man in a well-dressed robe and two men suddenly walked up to their table.

The vice captain on the side was about to angrily reprimand the outsider who had disturbed the celebratory atmosphere, but a guy behind the other party suddenly held a delicate-looking bottle and gently placed it on the table.

The vice captain immediately straightened his eyes. Putting a good bottle of wine in front of an alcoholic, especially one who is already half-drunk, simply can’t be too much of a favorite.

The robed man bent over slightly and whispered, “Is it Count Lannister in person?” ”

Lan showed an interested look, casually threw the bottle of wine brought by the other party to the vice captain and asked him to drink it while signaling the other party to sit down.

“There is only one Lannister in all of Sintra, and if you look for a Lannister, it must be me. ”

Lord Count said and smiled, with Lord Count’s ability, I believe that soon the Lannister family will become a pivotal family in Sintra. The robed man smiled and said, “It seems that today we have to celebrate the ascension of adults.” ”

The merchant pointed to the city guards who were reveling.

“The bottle you sent made my vice-captain happy, so you can continue until I finish this drink.” ”

Rann didn’t like dealing with the merchants of the era, and the nobles who knew nothing but a shelf.

The robed man was very accustomed to the sense of alienation exuded by a nobleman like Lan, and he looked down and smiled very well:

“I have long heard of the reputation of Lord ‘Lannister, a promise of gold’, and now the adult is still promoted to the officer of the city defense army, and I want to give the adult a credit. At the same time, I also hope that adults can save us merchants from fire and water. ”

“Just a month ago, a gang of robbers appeared in the countryside of Sintra, they were extremely organized and extraordinary, and there were many deserters and veterans who came down from the battlefield. They usually don’t dare to rob the village, so they always rob us merchants. ”

Speaking of this, the robed man also wiped his eyes pretendly.

“Just two days ago, they robbed another caravan under me, all the goods were gone, and all the people were killed, and only one guy fled back. ”

Saying that, he pointed to a man behind him who was wrapped in a thick gauze bandage and was in a weak spirit, as if he wanted to sell sympathy.

“My lord, this is a good opportunity. These guys usually have no fixed place to live, and how many town guard captains have united to encircle and suppress them. It’s rare that they have the audacity to go outside Sintra, isn’t that just a credit to you? ”

The person over there was talking, and Lan’s panel suddenly sounded.

[Discovery Mission: Wandering Bandits:

Gangster-plagued merchants call for help from a group of robbers roaming Sintra. It is rare that their tracks are mastered, and this seems to be an opportunity to pull them up completely.

Accept/Reject]

Without waiting for Rann to answer, the robed merchant first placed a large clanging money bag on the table.

“Lord Lan, this is a deposit for you. I know that a big man like you is definitely not short of money, this is just a heart, and there will be a heavy thank you after the fact. ”

Lane raised his eyebrows, nodded [Accept] the task, and then shouted:

“Boss, give my brothers another round of spirits, the best dwarf spirits! ”

After changing hands, he threw the money bag to the vice captain who had been quietly looking here, and continued to say to the robed merchant:

“If there’s not enough money in that money bag, you make it up.” Know that it’s not just me who helps you, it’s my soldiers. ”

The vice captain, who was already a little drunk, pounced on a tiger and almost smashed a large bag on the head by a thick money bag. His attention had long been on Lan’s table, and his eyes widened when he saw the money bag being taken out by the merchant.

“In addition, sir, since you have heard of my reputation, you should know that in addition to ‘One Promise’, I also have a name. Lane said softly, “Lannister, if there is a debt, it must be paid.” ”

After speaking, he did not look at the face of the merchant, turned his head and shouted at the soldiers of the city defense army.

“Everyone is open to drink and eat tonight, but you must not be late for tomorrow morning’s assembly training! ”

“Long live Lord Lan! ”

“For Lannister!! ”

Such cheers and shouts may not seem very formal, but it is a good sign that you can raise the military spirit to this level on the first day as the captain of the city guard.
