The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 12: The Book of the Sky Car
To be cautious, Annan used up all the 76 points of public experience he had accumulated first.
These experiences are just enough to upgrade his swordsman profession to another level and raise the level of the wizard apprentice to LV7.
After all, with his status as "Don Juan" and Annan's own age and size, it would be difficult for him to keep a sword that he can use with him for a long time. Not to mention, frost swordsmanship is a life-saving trump card that must not be leaked...
In this case, no matter how high his swordsman level is, it will not increase his normal combat effectiveness much.
It's just that the damage on the panel is high, but it is basically not used in actual combat.
On the contrary, it is the profession of wizard apprentice...
Annan decided not only to improve as quickly as possible, but also to advance smoothly in a short period of time.
After all, although Don Juan was young and murdered, he was not only Benjamin's student, but also a bronze-level wizard himself.
I don’t know how many people know about this.
But before Annan is suspected, he must reach the bronze level.
So his attribute and career panel became like this:
Annan, human, male
Rare elite (gold), challenge level 8
Title: None
Rank: None
Health: 100%
Erosion degree: 4%
Attributes: Strength 8, Agility 8, Constitution 7, Perception 18, Will 13
Public experience: 0
Personal characteristics: Heart of Winter [Reverse Inscription]
Job overview——
Swordsman LV5: [Guard Swordsmanship LV5], [Disarm LV1], [Frost Swordsmanship LV2]
Wizard Apprentice LV7: [Instant spell LV2 (cold contact, not available yet)], [Guide spell LV1 (not available yet)]
Completely different from the "Swordsman" profession.
As you can roughly guess from the name of the profession "Wizard Apprentice", it may just be the prerequisite profession of "Wizard".
Not only does the upgrade not give spells. And the level has been upgraded to level seven, which only adds two levels of skills in total.
...or in other words, two empty spell slots.
But now he has empty slots and no spells... This is very embarrassing.
However, Annan’s attribute list has undergone considerable changes:
His previous perception was 11 points, his strength was 7 points, and his constitution was 6 points. This means that each of his professions as a wizard apprentice provides him with a little sense of stability.
The two levels of swordsman career advancement add some attributes to his strength and physique respectively.
The increase in perception made Annan's brain very clear, messy thoughts disappeared, and his thinking became more accurate.
As if the computer garbage had been cleaned, he could feel his thinking speed speeding up.
But whether it was the increase in perception or physique, Annan did not have an intuitive feeling. Only the increase in strength attribute allows him to have an accurate measurement standard:
He tentatively waved John's guard sword twice before. At that time, he could still feel an obvious sense of sluggishness.
The excessive inertia feels like it is going to fly away. The sword moves are completely deformed and cannot be used normally at all.
But now, he can barely use this broken sword. Although it is still very difficult, at least when using it to perform a set of guard swordsmanship, the movements will not be deformed due to the inability to control the inertia.
...However, why can the two attributes of perception and will be so high when the predecessor only has a third-level swordsman?
Annan has no clue about this issue and can only attribute it to his own awesomeness.
Annan just made a rough calculation.
Judging from the improvement effect of the strength attribute, it would take at least ten points of strength to truly be able to use this broken sword as smoothly and freely as John's body. And if it were the original long sword, it might require 12 points of strength to use.
It's different from the wizard's apprentice. The swordsman profession seems to have an average bonus point. This means that when Annan can successfully use this broken sword, he should basically reach the swordsman LV10 level.
When he reaches that level, his wizard apprentice profession may have reached the advanced level.
——This broken sword is completely useless.
Annan came to a clear conclusion.
If he wants to defend himself, he has a better choice:
"That sword..."
Annan murmured.
He still remembered that young master Don Juan had a very exquisite, sharp and strong dagger.
When he used "John"'s body before, the sword was as short as a slightly longer dagger... but considering Annan's height, it was just right for him to use as a one-handed sword.
"I just don't know if it's still there."
Annan sighed with regret.
He did not go directly to the deck, but went to the captain's cabin.
In his impression, if Benjamin and Don Juan will die, then they should die here——
As expected.
The great wizard Benjamin, who didn't even take a step back and easily killed the captain of the guard without even using a spell, had lost his life and was lying on the table. Blood overflowed from his mouth, staining his teeth and plate red, and his eyes were dark.
It's almost like a nightmare reappearing.
The only difference is that the silver ring on Benjamin's right hand is gone. His robes and jewelry were also removed, just like an ordinary old man.
Next to Benjamin, there lay Don Juan, whose mouth was also full of blood, and the old housekeeper, whose back was pierced by a long sword, lying on the ground with his eyes open.
The bronze ring in Don Juan's hand also disappeared, but there was a luxurious silver ring inlaid with sapphires. The ring has a sharp feather-shaped notch on the ring, which is a relic left by Don Juan Geraint's mother.
But Annan knew clearly that this was not a ring that belonged to Don Juan at all.
Unlike Benjamin, no one had touched Don Juan's clothes.
...Why is this?
Annan frowned slightly and searched Don Juan's belongings.
After searching, I found that there was indeed something extra on Don Juan's body.
For example, the silver pocket watch that was broken in the nightmare but is still running normally today. The pocket watch case is engraved with the pattern of the three-eyed raven, which is instantly recognizable as the emblem of the Geraint family.
Don Juan's long dagger still hangs on the wall of the captain's cabin - but Annan clearly remembers that a nautical chart should be hung here.
The most unusual thing is that some letters originally placed in Don Juan's room were stuffed on Don Juan's body. Annan searched for it for a moment and it fell directly to the ground.
It's like waiting for Annan to find out.
Annan clearly understood that on the day Don Juan died, a banquet was about to be held on the ship. There was no need for Don Juan to carry so many heavy and troublesome things with him.
Taking a step back, he could have given them all to John.
...Unless someone wants the person who discovered the body to realize that this young man is Don Juan Geraint.
After all, these clothes don’t look like ordinary people. And once someone checks his belongings, they will get information about Don Juan's identity.
After all, Don Juan's name is written on the letter, and the emblem of the Geraint family is on the pocket watch and ring.
Does he want to have Don Juan's body recovered?
But didn’t the third prince want to hide the news of Don Juan’s death? If this is the case, the most convenient and thorough way would be to destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces. A fire burned the boat and the body together, and all the evidence was buried in the sea.
...Wait a minute?
Anan was stunned for a moment.
He suddenly recalled something:
During the week, Don Juan mentioned to him that there was a treasure sewn into the middle of his clothes.
Although Klaus is obviously the third prince's man, judging from the last two-stage transformation, it seems that there is someone else behind him.
At least judging from Benjamin's reaction, he probably didn't expect Klaus to have this trick at all.
In addition, the third prince wants Don Juan's seal. But during the week, Klaus was searching for "paper-like things" in Don Juan's room and "by the way" looking for a seal.
In other words...
This guy Klaus may not be an ordinary kid.
He may be a young man with a dual identity.
Not only did he betray Don Juan openly... he also betrayed the third prince secretly!
Klaus deliberately left his hands and feet to let the Geraint family recover Don Juan's body, probably in order to get the "secret treasure" hidden in him!
Because he didn't know how to take out the secret treasure, he planned to quietly spread the news that Don Juan was dead and let the Geraint family come to recover the body. It would have to be at least a few months until Don Juan's body was discovered, the news spread, the Geraint family learned about it, confirmed it, and then rushed over.
If Annan guessed correctly, Klaus was probably already in the capital at that time.
He will definitely find an excuse - such as causing trouble for the Geraint family or eliminating hands and feet, etc., ask for leave from the third prince, and follow quietly behind. The purpose is to see where the secret treasure is. ~IndoMTL.com~ Strange, didn’t he search Don Juan’s body?
Annan frowned slightly, but decided to take off Don Juan's clothes first.
When he was still thinking about where the thing would be hidden.
The moment Annan came into contact with Don Juan’s inner clothes, a curtain of light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes:
【Discovering the Fragment of Truth】
[Condition 1: No conflicting truth fragments are currently held]
[Condition 2: Hold rare elite (purple) and above templates]
[The truth appears——]
The next moment, a strong white light shined out.
The brilliant white light soared into the sky - and then was completely blocked by the captain's cabin, with only some scattered white light escaping from the windows and doors.
The white light lasted for half a minute before gradually dissipating.
What appeared in front of Anan's eyes was a white page that was very soft, like paper, and felt like jade. Dark golden words flowed on it like creatures. It was somewhat similar to the things released from Benjamin's ring, but it seemed extremely sacred.
Just looking at it, Annan can feel a strong sense of intimacy.
And a light curtain emerged from it:
[The Book of Heavenly Cars, Title Page]
