I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages Chapter 8: Xia Yin’s secret skills
In the small yard of Roger's house.
By the old table and chairs from the grocery store.
Roger hands Dorothy a freshly brewed chrysanthemum tea.
"Thank you."
Looking at the chrysanthemum petals floating in the clay pot, Dorothy's eyes were a little sad:
"In the whole Tongma Town, you are the only one who likes to make tea with chrysanthemum."
"It's a strange feeling."
"It's as if it had been ten years since the last time I visited your house."
Roger poured himself a cup of chrysanthemum tea ceremony:
"Correct, it was two years ago."
That was when Kane was still around.
Dorothy, as Kane's follower, naturally follows the latter wherever she goes.
At that time, she hadn't grown into the long-legged beauty she is now, and she was very shy. Every time she met, she would hide behind her brother and watch Kane and Roger talking.
Her conversation with Roger usually doesn't exceed ten sentences.
After Kane's death, Dorothy trained herself very hard, and gradually lost contact with the frog hunter who commuted to get off work.
…
Dorothy smiled silently.
The warm chrysanthemum tea dilutes the nostalgia and sadness. The girl sorted out her thoughts and talked about the purpose of this trip——
The lord's mansion has officially approved the crusade against the shiluo demon.
This means that their actions can be supported by the entire Tongma Town.
This is undoubtedly an uplifting good news.
The more important information is that the lord's mansion decided to take this opportunity to defeat the scorpion demon to reorganize the "Monster Slaying Team"!
Many young adventurers in the town are gearing up to find out how to join.
"The Crusade."
"Well, it's a good time indeed."
Roger responded not too perfunctorily.
He doesn't care about these things, but he knows it's important to Dorothy.
Killing the Shi Luo demon and rebuilding the crusade team is Dorothy's wish.
You must know that after Kane's death, the crusade team that he was also the captain of was disbanded; Tongma Town has only one guard team responsible for daily duty.
Anyone who wants to go out to slay monsters will be reprimanded. The reason is that the crusade team has been disbanded. Why bother to provoke those terrible monsters?
And now, with Roger's remaining power after beheading the Red Tide Corpse, the Lord's Mansion has boldly proposed a plan to reorganize the crusade team, naturally it was not a whim.
The activity of monsters has seriously affected the survival and development of Tongma Town.
No aspiring lord would just sit still.
"The timing is certainly good, but it's not the point."
Dorothy took a sip of tea, her white thighs staggered:
"The key is to see if we can successfully kill the Shi Luo demon."
Roger nodded.
With the reorganization of the crusade team, there must be some discordant voices in the town.
Even if it is suppressed now, once there is a setback in the process of crusade against the Shi Luo demon, those voices will soon reappear.
After all, no matter what era, there are a group of short-sighted people who only care about their own acre of land.
"This is the information about the Shi Luo demon provided by the lord's palace."
"This is the list of the main players participating in the crusade."
Dorothy put two documents on the table:
"The crusade time is tentatively set in two days, and I will notify you of the specific details."
"As for the lord's mansion, I hope you will be in charge this time..."
Roger grabbed the information and the list, shook his head and said:
"No. You're good to be the captain."
"Don't worry, I will cooperate with you."
Dorothy hesitated, but she knew a little about Roger's character, so she gave up after a few words of persuasion.
Roger opened the main roster and glanced at it.
Most of the adventurers on the list are familiar faces.
In recent years, fewer and fewer adventurers have come from the plateau, and Tongma Town is actually facing the dilemma of insufficient fresh blood.
If the surrounding monsters are not cleaned up, this vicious circle may become more and more serious.
One day, monsters will invade Tongma Town.
After an **** of blood and fire.
This place is in ruins.
This kind of script is not uncommon in Mystra.
…
"Huh? There is a second-ring adventurer?"
When checking the main data, Roger was slightly surprised.
He found an adventurer with a level 10 or higher!
This is definitely a very rare existence in Tongma Town.
"It's Uncle Terry."
Dorothy said: "You've seen it before. He came from the Gem City three years ago, and his strength fell sharply because of his injury, so he could only rest in the town."
"Didn't the lord's mansion search for medicine for his injuries a while ago? Now he has regained his strength and is a level 11 warrior."
Roger nodded:
"With a second-ring adventurer sitting in town, it's no wonder that the lord's palace dares to reorganize the crusade team."
Dorothy suddenly became a little shy, she struggled for a while before whispering:
"Actually two..."
Roger raised his eyes, somewhat surprised:
"You're also on the second ring?"
He didn't have the habit of looking at his friends with qi, so he didn't notice that.
Dorothy nodded proudly.
"It's really good."
Roger compliments.
If Kane knew that his sister had surpassed him, he would be very happy, right?
When he thought so, Dorothy asked:
"Roger, can I know what your strength is?"
Roger thought about it:
"A little bit stronger than you."
Dorothy is a little unconvinced:
"Really?"
In her perception, Roger is a level 8 adventurer.
Roger explained seriously:
"Don't worry, it's really only a little bit."
…
After sending off Dorothy, who suddenly wanted to compete, Roger ate a good meal and went back to sleep.
Late at night.
In the quiet courtyard, a little candle is lit.
With "low-light vision", Roger can see everything in the yard.
At this moment, he is holding a long and narrow knife in both hands.
In the center of the yard, a wooden dummy for training has long been placed.
The dummy is scarred and apparently reused.
Roger stands motionless with a knife ~IndoMTL.com~.
If you don't distinguish carefully, you may mistakenly think that he is also one of the dummies.
A tung hemp leaf fell.
The blocked air energy on his body suddenly burst out.
Whoosh!
An arc-shaped reddish knife light streaks through the night.
Pfft!
puff puff puff...
A series of dull sounds sounded.
On the ground of the courtyard, in addition to the tung hemp leaves, there are three more pieces of wood!
"It's amazing."
"One knife cut off three dummies, just like cutting tofu, no, cutting air!"
"No resistance at all."
Roger fondly stroked the Chiyue Knife.
The blade is like new and the blade is stable.
Appears unscathed.
"Using a secret technique on the dummy, still gaining momentum, is a bit bullying."
"But this one is really powerful."
Roger is still reminiscing about the feeling just now.
This move is the first move of "Nineteenth Moon" in the secret skills of Xia.
This trick is about bringing out the momentum perfectly.
In many cases, the momentum can bring great bonuses to Xia Yin's moves; but in the final collision, the power will be removed by various factors, and the final effect may be greatly reduced.
But with this trick, that won't happen.
Roger knows that even if it looks like the most common accelerated arc slash, the various bonuses brought by the secret skills of the hero make it impossible to ignore.
This may be the strongest move he has at the moment!
"There is no need for practice costs, and you will automatically master it after you learn it. This is the most powerful secret skill."
Roger felt a little more secure.
