Mercenary Wars

Chapter 29 Holy Name
Some of these blessings of holy names appeared during the last upgrade, but most of them were new and unfamiliar blessings. Gao Jianuo's attention was first attracted by a blessing ability that looked very powerful.

[Blessing: Transform into God: After use, each attribute is increased by 50 points regardless of the upper limit and a divine skin is obtained. The duration is three seconds, and after the time is up, the soul is lost.]

Each attribute is increased by 50 points!
Divine skin!
This shocked Gao Jianuo a little.

He didn't think three seconds was a short time. After all, after obtaining 50 points of all attributes, the speed must be incredibly fast. Even if there was only three seconds, he could probably complete many actions.

But it would be meaningless if you die immediately after using it.

And it seems that it is not death in the ordinary sense, but "loss of soul". Although Gao Jianuo is not sure what this means, he thinks it should be more thorough than ordinary death.

So even though he was shocked by the strength of "Incarnation into God", Gao Jianuo quickly gave up this option and turned to look at other holy names.

After several hours of screening and consideration, he finally hesitated between the two holy names.

Both holy names are good, and both have completely positive effects. There is no attribute reduction, no side effects such as fate or death after use.

One of the blessings of the Holy Name is "Two-Handed."

[Blessing: Ambidextrous: Make both of your hands dominant, and make them more flexible and stronger]

Gao Jianuo has practiced archery and swordsmanship, and he knows how important it is to have flexible hands.

If both of his hands become his dominant hands and are further strengthened, it is not difficult to imagine that his fighting ability can be significantly improved in a very short period of time.

He also heard that the leader of the Grey Eagle Mercenary Group possessed this blessing and his dual swordsmanship was extremely sharp.

Not only in combat, flexible hands also have many benefits in other aspects. For example, some pharmaceutical operations are also very delicate. Ambidextrous will definitely help Gao Jianuo improve his pharmaceutical level.

Gao Jianuo thought for a moment, then looked at the blessing of another holy name.

[Blessing: Return to Youth: Rapid Growth for one year. During this period, your body will continue to grow naturally, allowing you to learn anything faster and gain more. Even with completely passive growth, you will receive at least a 5% increase in all attributes, upper limit, and size, with each attribute increasing by up to 5 points, and size increasing by up to 10%.]

Comprehensive and rapid growth, up to 5 points for each attribute!
Compared to "Two-Handed", this blessing is more powerful.

But the disadvantage is that it cannot be fully acquired directly, but requires various exercises and learning, and it is estimated that it will also be affected by factors such as diet and sleep.

If you do nothing, after a year, there will only be a mere 5% gain, which means that all attributes combined will grow by three or four points in total, which is a bit useless.

Can I persist in living a self-disciplined life for a year?

If you can, this blessing is worth it.

Otherwise it is not cost-effective.

By the way, how exactly does body size grow?

Gao Jianuo was slightly puzzled by this, and then focused his attention. As long as it was something within his range of knowledge, he could obtain more detailed information from the panel by focusing his attention.

After receiving a more detailed explanation, he understood.

Body size growth is based on length growth.

比如他现在是175厘米，增长10%就是192.5厘米，9厘米增长10%就是9.9厘米——9厘米是他中指的长度。

Viewed this way, even a 5% increase in size is still significant.

Gao Jianuo pondered for a while and finally made up his mind.

Isn’t it just a year of self-discipline!

Choose it!

He looked again at the other information of the Holy Name.

[Holy Name: Alexstrassason]

[Belongs to: High Dragon]

[Bonus: All attribute limits +5, Constitution +1, Spirit +1, Strength +1, Intelligence +1, Agility +1]

【Blessing·Return to Youth】

……

Choose the Holy Name [Alextrassason].

upgrade!

With the upgrade complete, Gao Jianuo re-examined his panel. [Holy Name: Edakondejanus Sandran Alexstassasson]

[Level: Level 3]

【Physique: 11/31】

[Spirit: 21/31]

【Strength: 12/31】

[Intelligence: 17/31]

[Agility: 17/31]

[Experience: 55/1200]

At this moment, just like when he upgraded before, a string of vague information floated through his mind.

"May you gain something more precious than youth..."

Gao Jianuo thought for a while.

But it's obvious that nothing can be figured out from this incoherent talk.

Whatever, at least it doesn't sound like a curse.

It was already late at night and the camp was silent. The effect of the painkiller had almost worn off, and Gao Jianuo fell into a deep sleep.

He slept until dawn.

The next day, Gao Jianuo and some Grey Eagle mercenaries returned to Nanhai Town in high spirits.

He first sold the crystal core fragment for twenty silver coins at a hunter's guild he passed by, then returned to his residence and carefully examined the three blood elf relics that were not meant to be shown to others.

First up is the Blood Elf Bones.

The reason why Gao Jianuo picked up a bone was mainly because he thought that the blood elves could obtain the memories of the corpse before its death by eating corpses, even if the corpse was very old.

Although he lacked the skills and appetite of a blood elf, this reminded him that the corpse might contain more secrets.

So he deliberately kept one piece.

After looking at the bone left and right and carefully putting it away, Gao Jianuo looked at the white stick-like object again.

Apart from its more regular shape and a few mysterious patterns engraved on it, it looked just like a bone, which caused him to almost not notice it at the time.

Thanks to the panel ability, he did not miss this mysterious object that was beyond his cognition.

Gao Jianuo studied it for a long time but couldn't recognize what it was. The only feeling he had was that it felt very comfortable to hold.

Could it be a weapon?
But why is there no blade?

Seeing that he couldn't figure it out, Gao Jianuo had to put it away, and then picked up the last blood elf relic - the space magic ring.

[Item: Space Magic Ring]

[Level: Level 7]

After reaching level three, the ring's previously unknown level now becomes known - it seems that an unknown level means five levels or more above its own level.

Level seven, not as high as Gaucaneau imagined.

He had originally imagined that this thing had twenty levels.

But no matter what, for him at the moment, the seventh-level space magic ring is practical enough, as long as he masters a little bit of magic.

So after a moment of observation, Gao Jianuo left the room and asked Marcus to take him to find a magician in the Grey Eagle Camp.

"You want to learn magic?"

"Yes, Master Hayes." Gao Jianuo said with great respect. The other party was one of the few mages in the Grey Eagle Mercenary Group, and he was at level four. His status was much higher than his, a first-level pharmacist.

Master Hayes shook his gray beard, stretched out his hand expressionlessly, and spread his palm.
