Chapter 48: Thorns
"My apostle profession that is about to be transferred is biased towards ranged attacks and summons. I need a creature below level 4 who is more loyal, able to accept simple commands, and thick skin!" Qin Lun said in Beluces' eyes.
Beruses grinned and laughed silently. He understood why Qin Lun didn't go to find the night elves.
The Moonlight Elf belongs to the camp of orderly and kindness. The entire race advocates freedom and peace and respects life. They rarely assist the apostles in capturing summoned creatures, let alone providing summoned creatures with their own hands.
In the elves' philosophy, turning a free life into a summoning creature is a blasphemy and violates the laws of nature. Although the elves, druids and archers are sometimes accompanied by hunting dogs, unicorns, flower demons and other jungle creatures, they regard them as combat partners rather than summoning creatures.
For the apostles, simple combat partners cannot be brought into another world, and can only turn them into summoning creatures. In addition, the elves pursue an elegant and gorgeous combat style, and even the combat creatures they cultivate are mostly creatures with relatively beautiful appearances. For example: unicorns, flower elves, griffins, etc.
These creatures did not meet Qin Lun's requirements. According to his vision, the summoned creature he wanted was obviously a melee creature with a simple and crude combat style and could serve as a meat shield for his master if necessary.
"You are really looking for the right person. Except for our demon clan, the other four management races, Rakshasa, Wind Element, Dwarf, and Moonlight Elf, are probably difficult to meet your requirements." Beluces said confidently.
Qin Lun smiled slightly, and the cunning demon was not blindly arrogant. In fact, before asking Beruses for help, he had asked Didi to go out and inquire, acting as a creature of melee flesh shield of other races. Except for the demon race, it was indeed difficult for the other four managed races to satisfy him.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no meat shield warriors in the other four management races. Similar to the gnome race, there are various constructed golems that can act as melee meat shields. However, the constructed golems are puppets. If you want to become a summoning creature, you must install an alchemy soul on it. This is too expensive.
The Wind Element Clan has an ice crystal giant, the Rakshasa tribe has a Hydra and a Swamp Ogre, the Moon Night Elf has a Tree Monster, and the Mountain Giant. These are powerful creatures with extremely strong melee ability and vitality. However, these creatures are all high-level creatures, and not to mention that Qin Lun cannot control them, these races cannot satisfy him.
Only the demon clan has a lot of hybrid hybrid creatures in the clan because of their lustful nature. These hybrid creatures are not pure-bred demons and are born with low intelligence. However, the thin demon bloodline in their bodies gives them strong vitality and combat ability, and are the best materials for mid- and low-level summoning creatures.
"I can give feedback to the clan about your request, but please understand one thing..." Beruses spread his hands and looked at Qin Lun without further comment.
"I understand, equivalent exchange, then how much broken crystals do I need to pay?" Qin Lun said lightly.
"Don't worry, let's talk when I prepare the summoning creatures you need!" Beruses said with a smile.
Watching Beruses go out, Qin Lun sighed slightly. If possible, he really wouldn't want to deal with the demon clan. The demon clan was cunning and insidious. Although they wouldn't deceive and blackmail the apostles, the negotiations full of intrigues would never be pleasant.
...
"Swoosh!" Accompanied by the slight sound of breaking through the air, silver light flashed from time to time in the air.
"Stop!" With a stern scolding, Qin Lun stopped practicing with a bitter face.
"The power of the stabbing sword lies in stabbing, not as a fire stick!" A sky blue melon-shaped face appeared in front of Qin Lun, and his snake-like vertical pupils stared at him ruthlessly, making Qin Lun feel like a frog stared at by a poisonous snake.
This is Qin Lun's swordsmanship, the Rakshasa woman who once taught him basic swordsmanship. Although this beautiful young woman from the Rakshasa clan has a rough wave, her waist is like a willow, and her figure is better than many succubus. However, in Qin Lun's eyes, she is more like a demon than a succubus. He still has redness and swelling that has not faded, and he was pulled out by this Rakshasa woman with a wooden sword.
"I have told you how many times, don't chop, use slashes, slashes, slashes, do you understand? Even if you are an apostle, I have to say the same thing. You don't have the ability to swordsmanship at all. I won't come tomorrow. This is simply a waste of life!" The Rakshasa woman twisted her buttocks and left.
Qin Lun frowned and sighed, staring at the FN-500 that had become Narnia's sword in his hand. In the next few days after meeting with Beruses, he had been staying in the training ground to exercise his new skills and sword skills.
He has used the low-level skill scroll, and his basic swordsmanship has finally been upgraded to intermediate swordsmanship. However, after using the Narnia swordsmanship for a while in the training ground, his enthusiasm for sword training began to decline sharply. Even Joey seemed not satisfied with the swordsmanship form of the FN-500.
Although he invited this strictly demanding swordsman again, and although the slender sword-shaped sword has the good skill of sharpness, Qin Lun's cultivation has not improved at all.
With the intermediate sword technique of the Law of the Body, he does have a good sense of holding a sword, and can even use the blade to cut off the fly's wings. However, he will occasionally chop the sword like a fire stick, and this habit is as unavoidable as a drug addiction. As long as he relaxes his attention, he will use it unconsciously.
After several days of exploration, Qin Lun finally understood that the intermediate sword technique of breaking the starry sky cannot replace the real sword technique. The intermediate sword technique of breaking the starry sky is equivalent to a physical touch, which can only make his laws and body familiar with the weapon, which is the so-called feel.
If it is a gun, then it has a feel and a calculation of a combat model. He can fully exert the power of the gun, and it seems that it is no problem to master the intermediate gun. However, different from the sword stabbing, sword technique is much more complicated than gun technique. Obviously, it is not possible to master it with just one feel. He also needs corresponding sword skills.
Perhaps Qin Lun was born with a talent for shooting but no talent for swordsmanship. He always felt that Narnia's sword was too light and thin, and it was light and fluttering in his hand, which was really not as good as a fire stick.
Qin Lun packed up and walked out of the training ground, thought for a while, and then walked towards the auction house. He handed over most of the apostle currency to Didi, but he didn't pay any attention to the auction house at all.
Originally, 30,000 broken crystals and 1,000 redemption coupons were not available for purchase, and he still needed to replenish the recovery items. It would be better to leave them to Didi for trouble. Whether there is any surprise or not, the little Goblin would not use up all the Apostle currency. The remaining part, plus the remaining more than 6,000 broken crystals on him, just replenish the recovery items.
However, now he has two "ground spurt" and "arc shooting" left on him that he wants to exchange for other skill scrolls, which is not considered to be without capital.
The FN-500 has a slow firing rate. Although it is good, its cooling time has reached 30 seconds. It is actually not suitable for the "fighting gun technique" with an urgent battle rhythm. He also needs to find two more fast guns.
Sitting in the box of the auction house, Qin Lun was not in a hurry to find a quick gun in the projector. Firearms are the most consigned items in the auction house, no doubt about it.
In the auction category, he first searched for the classification of skill scrolls. Perhaps the transactions in the past few days are quite cold, and there are more than a dozen skill scrolls in the consignment of skill scrolls that have not been sold.
However, after Qin Lun read the consignment introduction of those skill reels, he rolled his eyes and was speechless. Although he was not as familiar with the price fluctuations at the auction house as Didi, the asking price of these ten skill reels was too outrageous. The transaction was not completed because it could not be sold.
One of the low-level reels "Spikes" actually costs 100,000 yuan in broken crystals or a piece of dark gold equipment of a specified type. Not to mention the transaction, this price will make people feel nameless at first sight.
No matter how rare skill reels are, the price of low-level reels is rarely higher than that of Dark Gold equipment. Although the fusion skills are the basis of the strength of the apostles, the equipment skills brought by Dark Gold equipment are also very good, and there are basically more than two, so they can be sold without it.
This low-level "sting" skill is actually just a big road product, with a value of 30,000 to 40,000 broken crystals, which is 10,000 or 20,000 lower than the most ordinary dark gold. Selling 100,000 broken crystals is a complete insult to other people's IQ, and it is not surprising that they can't be sold.
Among these more than ten skill scrolls, Qin Lun actually fell in love with a low-level scroll called "Thorn Technique", which is a wood-type spell.
The Thorn Technique can use the vitality of plants to allow the roots and trunks of plants to produce a large number of wood thorns. It not only has the ability to attack, but also becomes a defensive skill under specific conditions. Of course, from the introduction, it has too strict requirements on the environment and is not highly applicable.
However, the vine seed he had used instantly flashed through Qin Lun's mind. He used vine seeds in the underwater temple of the fantasy world. The elf plant given to him by Mafa can become a vine person for a limited time. Although it cannot be moved, it can automatically attack the enemy. If the "thorn technique" is added, it seems to be a good combination.
The price of this thorn technique is 45,000 broken crystals, which is much more pleasing than the "thorn". However, in Qin Lun's opinion, the price is still at a premium of 50%. With the applicable level of the thorn technique, 30,000 broken crystals are considered reasonable.
Perhaps the Thorn Technique is a very good offensive and defensive combination with certain plant seeds. But you should know that the plant seeds that can be brought into the other world by the apostles are not all over the streets. Take the vine seeds used by Qin Lun for example, a value of hundreds of broken crystals is worth. Using Thorn Technique once will definitely waste several, which is equivalent to extra effort.
What's more, if the Thorn Technique wants to exert its outstanding power, it also requires the apostle to have the affinity of wood elements. Otherwise, how powerful this low-level skill is is still an unknown number, and maybe it can only stalk its hands like a rose.
