Chapter 6: Bullying
In the dim underground mausoleum, Lucious carefully explored.
Even if you die in the dungeon, you will not be affected in any way in reality.
But Lucious didn't want to die for the last time.
Especially when the 'immersion mode' is turned on, which is an almost real situation.
Infinite resurrection only makes him not afraid of death, but it does not mean that he is not afraid of pain.
After walking for about three minutes, he finally walked out of the long and narrow passage, and then a small underground tomb appeared in front of him.
In addition to a coffin in the center of the tomb, there are ten puppets with cyan metallic luster placed around it.
Looking at these puppets, Lucious stopped cautiously.
Because he found that as he walked into the room, the originally quiet puppets around him turned to look at it.
Not to mention how weird this scene is.
At the same time, information about these puppets also appeared in Lucious's eyes.
[Greenstone Puppet]
[Strength: Third level of Qi training]
[Features: Copper skin and iron bones, no fear of pain]
Boom!
Just when Lucious wanted to retreat to the passage and continue to observe, the door behind him suddenly fell.
Looking at the closed door, Lucious had an ugly expression.
Right now, he... has no way out.
Almost at the same time that the passage door closed, the originally quiet Greenstone puppets began to move.
The two-meter-tall bodies were like heavy armor. Even if they were just walking slowly, they still brought huge pressure to Lucious like a python coiling around him.
Beating the dog behind closed doors does not show martial ethics!
There is a kind of one-on-one challenge!
It was obvious that the Greenstone puppets had no intention of challenging Lucious in a duel.
Looking at the Greenstone puppets pressing closer and closer, Lucious took out his Qi-training magic sword from the storage bag and ran his fingers across the sword's edge.
Sharpness!
As his fingers passed across it, the magic sword was immediately covered with a layer of silver-white 'sword energy.'
This sword energy is not that sword energy, but the unique dry metal power of sharp edge technique.
But most of the time, the effect of this dry gold power is no different from that of real sword energy.
At least that's how it seemed to Lucious.
Due to the psychological advantage of unlimited resurrection in the dungeon, Lucious adjusted his mentality in a short period of time.
He raised the magic sword in his hand and pointed it at the nearest Greenstone puppet, his words full of provocation.
"Come."
As if in response to Lucious's words, the Greenstone puppet that was originally walking slowly exploded and quickly rushed to Lucious.
Looking at the puppet made of cyan metal, Lucious felt familiar for some reason.
But the current situation left him no time to think carefully, and he instinctively swung his sword.
Stab!
The magic sword covered with the power of dry gold fell on the Greenstone puppet, making a harsh metal cutting sound.
A large number of sparks burst out from the collision between the magic sword and Greenstone's puppet, briefly illuminating the originally dark underground tomb.
And this sword certainly caused a lot of damage to Greenstone's puppet, leaving a long and narrow sword mark on its chest.
But Lucious couldn't be happy no matter what.
Greenstone's puppet completely ignored his attack and punched him in the face, exchanging lives for lives!
Purple Glow divine light!
Facing the unavoidable iron fist of Greenstone's puppet, Lucious had no choice but to use the divine light to protect his body.
Boom!
Greenstone Puppet's fist stopped in mid-air, and what was blocking it was a layer of lavender glow.
With the help of Purple Glow's divine light to block the precious time of Greenstone's puppet, the magic sword in Lucious's hand turned into cold light and passed through Greenstone's neck.
This time, the originally irritable Greenstone puppet finally stopped.
Its head fell to the ground like a ball, making a dull sound.
The headless body fell down and hit the ground heavily.
Looking at the motionless Greenstone puppet in front of him, Lucious wiped the sweat from his forehead with some exhaustion.
He, who only had the second level of Qi training, first used the Sharpness Technique, and then immediately used the Purple Glow Divine Light.
This is quite a burden for him.
But before Lucious could relax for long, he heard a dull sound coming from the air.
Lucious raised his head and immediately saw several green and black iron fists coming towards him.
It was also at this moment that he remembered that there was not only one Greenstone puppet in the underground tomb, but ten!
He was sweating profusely after being beaten by just one Greenstone puppet, let alone nine of them at the same time.
In a daze, Lucious felt that time was slowing down on him.
He wanted to resist, but his heavy body prevented him from making any movements. He could only watch the iron fists coming in pairs silently.
As he lay dying, Lucious had only thought in his mind.
It's so despicable to bully the few with more!
Boom!
In the underground passage of the ancient Repair Mausoleum.
"Ah!"
Lucious exclaimed and sat up from the ground, then hurriedly lowered his head and touched his chest.
After discovering that there was nothing wrong with his body, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Recalling the battle with Greenstone's puppets just now, Lucious still had lingering fears.
The Greenstone puppet, which was fearless of pain and had copper skin and iron bones, was still a bit too tricky for him, a monk who was only in the Qi training period.
Ordinary spells falling on these puppets may not even leave any scars.
If his sharpness skills hadn't reached the Dacheng level, it would have been extremely difficult for him to hurt these Greenstone puppets.
The power of the Greenstone Puppet is obvious.
Because he had just experienced the feeling of 'death', Lucious was not in a hurry to leave the passage and continue to challenge the Greenstone puppets.
Instead, he sat down cross-legged and began to summarize the previous battle.
In terms of strength alone, a single Greenstone puppet is much more powerful than the average second-level monk in the Qi training period.
Monks during this period often did not master any spells, and their physical strength was average.
But what about the Greenstone puppet?
Their bodies are invulnerable and they have no fear of pain or death.
It is completely normal for them to exchange injuries for injuries.
Not to mention the second level of the Qi training stage, even the third or fourth level of the Qi training stage, Lucious didn't think they would be the opponent of a Greenstone puppet one on one.
But after thinking calmly for a moment, Lucious still thought of many ways to deal with these guys.
Although the Greenstone puppets have steel bones, their movements are very slow.
Even though the speed of their explosion is much higher than that of ordinary people, it is still not as good as that of ordinary monks.
Therefore, if you are familiar with the attack methods of these guys, it is not difficult to avoid their attacks.
Considering the small space of the underground tomb and the number of Greenstone puppets, which are as many as ten, it is obviously unrealistic to 100% avoid their attacks.
Fortunately, these guys only know physical skills and not magic.
Otherwise, Lucious would really have nothing to do with these guys in a short period of time.
After thinking for a moment, Lucious finally thought of a countermeasure.
"Facing these bulky tanks, I either have to have terrifying destructive power and defeat them before they get close to me."
"Or I have to be more agile than them to avoid being hit by them."
"I will not consider the former for now. Even if I have such a spell now, I may not have enough cultivation to cast it."
"So to deal with them, I'd better start with body skills. There should be suitable body skills for me to choose from in the school's treasure pavilion."
After thinking this, Lucious immediately exited the copy space and returned to reality.
If an outsider saw it, they might just think that he closed his eyes and meditated for a moment.
But in fact, he had just experienced a one-sided massacre.
He was the one who was abused.
In order to wash away the shame of being beaten by Greenstone's puppet, Lucious carefully searched for suitable movement techniques in the Treasure Pavilion.
He doesn't have many credits left at the moment and must use them carefully.
After all, whether he rented a training room or redeemed the Purple Glow health-preserving skills before, he had already spent a lot of credits.
These credits may be nothing to students in the Tiandao class or the Earth class, but for him in the Humanity class, they are a huge expense.
It's not easy to get credits, but use them and cherish them.
After searching for a while, Lucious finally selected what he wanted among the numerous techniques in the Treasure Pavilion.
[Flowing Cloud Step]
[Effect: After practice, the speed of movement can be greatly improved, and with great success, you can learn the flowing cloud afterimage]
[Cultivation requirements: water spirit root]
[Price: 200 credits]
[Water Dragon Song]
[Effect: The sword emerges like a dragon, and you can learn the power of the dragon's roar with great success]
[Cultivation requirements: water spirit root]
[Price: 300 credits]
Lucious was just looking for a suitable movement technique at first, but after he found Flowing Cloud Step, he quickly noticed the 'Sword Technique: Water Dragon Song' recommended to be practiced next to this movement technique.
After seeing the effect of Water Dragon Roar, Lucious admitted that he was moved.
Although he possesses the 'Advanced Sharpness Skill', he does not have the swordsmanship to unleash the power of this spell.
The fighting method has always been simple slashing, which is a waste of natural resources.
The appearance of Water Dragon Roar undoubtedly made up for this point.
If coupled with the movement technique of 'Flowing Cloud Step', Lucious felt that his strength could reach a big level in a short period of time.
Dealing with the ten Greenstone puppets in the catacombs must not be that troublesome.
"Okay, that's them."
The more Lucious thought about it, the more he felt that 'Water Dragon Roar' and 'Flowing Cloud Step' were very suitable for him now, so he decisively bought them.
Not long after, the training methods of these two secret books were transmitted to Lucious's mobile phone.
After carefully reading them, Lucious had two brand new skills in his skill panel.
[Water Dragon Song: Getting Started 1/150]
[Flowing Cloud Step: Getting Started 1/100]
[Current experience value: 300]
"I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf. As long as I can defeat these ten Greenstone puppets, the experience points I have spent now will definitely be earned back exponentially."
Real cultivation of immortality, extra points!
[You have spent 150 experience points, and the Water Dragon Song has been upgraded to 'Proficient'...]
[You spent 100 experience points to upgrade Flowing Cloud Step to 'Proficient'...]
