Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins

Looking back now, Hestia also felt that it was so fast.

Those clans that were well prepared in the outside world would need at least one or two years to reach this level after coming to Orario. But her clan had no preparation at first, and it took only a few months to get out of the scope of the bottom clans in Orario.

Who is saying that she can't make it in Orario?

Chapter 174 The Color of the Soul.

Get up and train.

In the backyard of the 'Hostes of Plenty' tavern, Su Mo further clarified the actual capabilities of the new magic.

It is said to be 'reunification and sublimation', which can transform into a high-level fairy spirit, but the improvement to the basic ability value is very small, at most it is just a small correction. On the contrary, the magic power recovery speed and the ability to control magic elements have a great improvement, which is much stronger than the increase of 'Hero's Mark'.

But if I insist on saying that this is a kind of "improvement", it doesn't feel quite right. As my own God said, this is more of an instinct as a high-level fairy spirit, and the other name of the fairy spirit - the name of "demon spirit" comes from this.

After the transformation, the most obvious improvement is obviously the development ability - elements.

Because the development ability has never been upgraded, Su Mo does not know how much the improvement of one level is. However, based on the fact that the distance and quality of metal manipulation have been nearly doubled, he roughly estimates that the development ability of "elements" can be roughly equivalent to an increase of two levels.

The mana consumption for manipulating metal has also been significantly reduced.

As for the protection of our own God.

He already had a deep feeling of the spiritual protection, and since he was told not to select 'Abnormal Resistance' repeatedly, it seemed likely that his body's resistance to various abnormal conditions would not be too bad.

The only thing that is still uncertain is whether this magic can be used to forcefully use the left eye?

"Whoosh..."

Leaning back sideways, Liu looked at the flying metal needle that passed by the tip of his nose, feeling a little curious.

She was clearly only fighting against one person, but because of the presence of these three flying needles, she had the illusion that she was fighting against multiple people.

Three flying needles of different sizes kept shuttling back and forth and attacking. In terms of power and speed, they were obviously not enough to threaten her. Their real strength lay in their ability to attack from all blind spots. Their interference capability was indeed quite outstanding.

The wooden sword swept across, forcing the opponent back while knocking away a flying needle.

The changes in attack were not fast and agile enough... He kept making evaluations in his mind, but Liu did not underestimate this fighting style at all.

It's just a prototype but it already has such power. When one day the strength, speed, and agility are complete, and the flying needles are replaced with short weapons such as daggers and short swords, facing him at that time will probably be no different from fighting against multiple people.

He stepped on the flying needle with one foot, blocked the sword with a wooden sword, crouched down, and punched out with his left hand.

This wasn't her preferred method of attack, but it seemed okay today.

Watching the figure doing a backflip and standing up again with one hand on the ground, Liu looked at her left hand again. Her feeling was undoubtedly correct, and such contact did not make her feel any physical discomfort.

It is really exaggerated that he can directly transform into an immortal spirit and awaken this kind of magic.

The actual combat training was still going on, and more and more heads were sticking out of the windows upstairs.

The gray-haired girl quietly stared at the figure below who suddenly became a little different. The skin, body shape, face, and even the hair, the many subtle changes made the boy look extremely harmonious, and the "flawlessness" that surpassed exquisiteness gave him a sacred quality.

This is a very natural kind of beauty that is unlikely to make people feel uncomfortable. The elves, who have always been extremely clean, have made the best comment on this.

But at this moment, her real focus is not these.

At the moment when the boy transformed, the deep darkness in her eyes also became much thinner at the same moment.

So much so that at this moment, she was finally able to see through the darkness and roughly see what the soul light at the core looked like.

It was a ball of colorful light that was burning like a flame.

Just as she had thought before, it was not pure, but that was not a bad thing. Those colorful colors were exactly the nutrients needed for the 'flame' to burn, and purer colors had already appeared in the burning.

Red, white and gold, three colors that stand out are shining brightly, constantly emitting dazzling brilliance.

Brilliant, gorgeous, dazzling, transformation...

This is a beauty that deserves careful appreciation. In the foreseeable future, when it truly breaks out of the shell, it will surely be even more enchanting.

The only thing that surprised her was that this inner glow was far from being as harmonious as the boy's current appearance.

Red, white, and gold, these three colors can indeed be the colors of flames, but at the moment, the red and white lights are clearly defined, presenting a very obvious opposition.

The boy was not just absorbing the light of the fire, there were obviously other symbols mixed in as well.

Transform into an immortal, control metal and the earth, and walk out of the dungeon...

Finally finding the source of the abnormality in the boy, the gray-haired girl smiled sweetly.

The light is burning, which probably symbolizes not only transformation, but also a kind of tempering. The unique and peerless collection is being cultivated by the "earth" and the "fire", and is being tempered and forged in constant competition.

So, what kind of gorgeous product will be created in the end?

The gray-haired girl found that she was not only looking forward to it more, but also more curious.

……——……

When the morning sparring ended, Su Mo also received a lot of advice from the elf girl.

With the improvement of metal manipulation ability, weapons such as flying needles have truly demonstrated their deadly edge.

Don't underestimate the threat to the elf girl, that's because the girl happens to focus on "agility" and "dexterity", and she is at LV.4, which makes her a top speed opponent.

If it is a fight on the same level, the flying needles in the transformed state are enough to become a deadly weapon.

But the problem lies here. When fighting at the same level, is it really necessary to transform?

The improvement in his metal manipulation ability did greatly enrich his means, but as for the increase in the upper limit of his own strength, after some actual combat training, it can only be said that it was not as great as he had imagined.

In a fight of the same level, once the 'Crown' is activated, it is obviously a faster and more direct way to chop directly with the sword.

Fighting against a higher level, facing an ordinary LV.3, it is a pretty good means of dealing with group attacks.

But when facing a strong enemy, it seems that this can only serve as a good means of interference.

Just as the elf just pointed out, the lethality of the flying needles is still too small after all.

With his fighting style, the outcome of a battle with a truly strong enemy would most likely be decided in an instant.

As for attacks like flying needles, as long as the opponent can avoid the vital points, let alone the second-level adventurer in the first chapter, even a third-level adventurer of the same level as him can withstand the damage of a few needles.

Even the unicorn rabbit can still take a few steps after being pierced through the vitals. This is an unavoidable limitation.

Let a long needle pass through someone else's body?

Some of the tricks are worth trying.

But Su Mo already had a hunch that controlling the long needle in a strong man's body would be no less difficult than forcibly extracting the metal elements from the human body, and the latter was something he couldn't even do on ordinary people.

The most direct and practical way to increase lethality is obviously to increase the size of the weapon, but in this way, the speed, flexibility and even strength of the attack will be compromised, which is obviously not worth the cost.

A flying weapon without speed and flexibility is worthless. If you really want to do this, it would be better to just wear a pair of metal boots.

Su Mo felt that this seemed to be the best way to increase the upper limit of his strength.

How about making a lighter pair first?

Chapter 175 Where is the fish?

While thinking about how to use his metal manipulation ability, Su Mo also spread out the dozen or so portraits of human heads in his hands and took a look.

These were the intelligence that Miss Chloe and Miss Lunova had selected for him.

There are twelve portraits in total, of famous assassins of the older generation, perhaps those who have clearly reached level 4, those who have been to Orario, and those who have not been proven dead...

When Su Mo looked at the portraits, he mainly compared the eyes.

Unfortunately, after looking at each picture one by one, he was still unable to match the people in the portraits with the two figures in his memory.

Some disappointment, but not much surprise.

After all, he is an assassin who cannot show his face in the light. A certain three-red-crown assassin who can perform invincibility knows to wear a mask. How can we be at ease if someone who does not have the ability to perform invincibility does not hide himself tightly?

Apart from a few special cases, assassins who would expose themselves directly to the sunlight are undoubtedly unqualified. Therefore, Su Mo would not be surprised even if they could change their body shape, let alone their faces.

We haven’t found any clear clues here, and I don’t know if the Ganesha clan has found any?

If you can't find it either...

Su Mo raised his head and looked towards the tall tower of the Ishtar clan.

There is no doubt that the most definite clues about the two assassins and the strange man are there.

……——……

On the way to the Twilight Pavilion, Su Mo and Welf talked about the idea of metal boots.

The contract object has a need for armament, and as a forging partner, Welf will naturally not refuse.

If he were to forge a pair of high-level metal boots, he would still hesitate. After all, high-level materials cannot be wasted at will. He would have to wait until he acquires the ability to develop 'forging' before he could really start forging.

But it was just a pair of experimental metal boots, which was a good opportunity for him to practice in advance.

"In two days, I will be ready to challenge the Minotaur."

After talking about the metal boots, Welf also talked about his plan. "My 'Strength' and 'Dexterity' have both reached 'B', and 'Agility' is almost at 'C'. According to the uncle, I have barely reached the baseline for challenging the Minotaur."

"Okay, I'll go with you then."

"I can too."

Welf shook his head and refused the help offered by the two. "No need. Uncle will accompany me when the time comes."

"I actually want to practice on the sixteenth floor..."

"It's really not necessary!"

Without waiting for Su Mo to finish his words, Welf once again sternly refused.

"This is very suspicious, Lord Welf."

It was a bit suspicious, but since the other party had expressed his opinion, Su Mo didn't say anything more.

Adventure, challenge, great deeds, only the hurdle of "upgrade" is that the assistance that outsiders can provide is indeed quite limited.

"Just let us know if you need help."

"Of course."

Seeing Su Mo jump to this topic, Welf immediately nodded and replied.

If there was a real need, he certainly wouldn't be polite to these two 'beasts'.

One broke the limit, and the second one also broke the limit. I feel that after meeting these two people, my three views have been reshaped.

So no matter how embarrassed or miserable he is, he has to upgrade as soon as possible.

It’s not easy to follow their footsteps... Thinking of this, Welf couldn’t help but look at Lilyluka.

In the early morning, the dark circles under the faces of the little people had not completely disappeared.

She has been learning how to mix elixirs, poisons, all kinds of strange powders, as well as making explosives, bombs, smoke bombs, blow darts and other small props. Although she does not need combat training, she has obviously not been very relaxed recently.

"Sufficient rest is a must, Lily."

"I don't want to be told this by Lord Welf, who frequently visits the Deanket clan."

"..."

Welf was speechless.

"Welf is right. I think you should really pay more attention to rest, Lily."

"Yes, Master Bell!"

"..."

Welf no longer wanted to talk.

They arrived at the Dusk Hall amidst chatting and laughing, and a day of fighting training officially began.

The training days are always monotonous but fulfilling. In the Dusk Hall, Su Mo also got the latest information about the Ishtar clan.

Not surprisingly, the goddess of beauty finally compromised and provided a lot of information about the man-made maze in exchange for preferential treatment from the guild and the Ganesha family towards her own family.

The guild naturally had no objection to such an exchange.

As long as the person is not handed over, it is not excessive to treat the "prisoners" well.
