The Last Apostle Chapter 78: Gladiator
However, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. After careful questioning, Du Yuqi found out that the rocket boots also have great weaknesses. First of all, they are extremely heavy. Speed, and the second is that it consumes a lot of energy once it is started, and it can only last for 20 or 30 seconds, and it is easy to be damaged in the end.
These three major disadvantages make it difficult for rocket boots to be used in high-end battles, because when experts fight, sometimes a single flaw can determine life and death, and the uncertainty of rocket boots being easily damaged makes them a double-edged sword , and there is no room for loss in the competition between masters, and the uncertain factors must be minimized, so this thing will eventually lead to a very embarrassing situation, those who dare to use it, but cannot afford it, and those who can afford it, but dare use!
Then Du Yuqi continued to walk forward, and the location of the gymnasium was in front of him. Du Yuqi still clearly remembered the past when he came to the gymnasium to look for the purchase of first-level swordsmanship, so he couldn't help but stare forward, but Seeing a lot of people gathered in the square ahead, it looked quite crowded and lively, so they immediately joined in.
After Du Yuqi went there, he found that a platform was temporarily built there, and on it were several magical devices that looked very old, called the magic arena. Different professional phantoms can be transformed. Although these phantoms do not have any lethality, after the person on stage puts on a magic cloak, they can fight with these phantoms. Once hit by the phantom, the magic cloak will record it.
The rules of victory and defeat are also very simple. Five points will be deducted for one hit on fatal parts (heart, throat, head, and lower genitals), two points will be deducted for one hit on non-fatal parts, and if the cumulative deduction of ten points is lost Lose. Blocking is allowed, but half points will be deducted if you are hit after blocking.
This thing looks very sci-fi and advanced, but in fact, this kind of early ancient magic device unearthed from the ruins is not uncommon. It is much more exaggerated than this, such as the Hanging City, the Lord of the City of Light, Segerhardt, etc. Artificial creatures exist, so although some people find it strange, it is not unacceptable.
Hetton Marr is famous for its free atmosphere. Adventurers, traveling merchants, and scholars from all over the world can come and go here freely and communicate with each other, so they have a high acceptance rate for this new thing. Go up and play. People flocked to it, and the boss next to him was also grinning from ear to ear, yelling loudly for everyone to try, and also said that those who could pass six consecutive assessments would be rewarded with 100 gold coins.
Du Yuqi had nothing to do at this time, so he jumped up and gave a gold coin to say that he wanted to challenge. After he put on the magic cloak, he followed the instructions of the person next to him, holding his right hand in a virtual grip, and then made a choice , it will quickly form a desired weapon, of course, it is also a virtual image, and it can only make very simple chopping and chopping movements.
Then Du Yuqi went to challenge the illusion of the first level. He was a clergyman. After familiarizing himself with the mode at this time, he quickly realized that this game required a lot of skills. On the contrary, he was superhuman. Strength is of no use here at all, because my weapons are completely illusions, that is to say, all the tests are the most basic things and so on.
So, he easily defeated the priest.
However, as the initial enemy, the clergyman must be the least difficult. The ghost swordsman who appeared next made Du Yuqi feel the pressure, and the sharpshooter who appeared in the fourth game made Du Yuqi feel particularly overwhelmed Yes, because the enemy's various skills emerge in an endless stream, especially the use of Thomas's maneuvering and the pursuit robot. Although they are all low-level skills, they are especially disgusting to Du Yuqi, especially at this time. In the case of skill advantage.
So, although Du Yuqi managed to pass the fourth round of the sharpshooter, the blue boxing that appeared in the fifth round made him helpless. After Du Yuqi showed a flaw, he was caught by the gorgeous blue boxing Pushing to death, even if it is blocked by default, it is useless.
However, Du Yuqi's ability to persist until the fifth round is already a rare achievement, and after Du Yuqi's loss, his eyes lit up, and he immediately discovered a crucial problem, that is, he seemed to be It is already very powerful, but in fact there are great hidden dangers hidden in it. The most fundamental reason for this is that the foundation is not stable, and the effort in practicing the most basic swordsmanship is not enough.
Du Yuqi's understanding of basic swordsmanship is completely obtained by absorbing the scrolls and experiences of his predecessors. He has too little practice in this area. In fact, he has a huge shortcoming, but he has not yet Being forced to such a desperate situation, the disadvantage caused by this short board has never been revealed, but in fact it has begun to restrict the development of his strength.
Du Yuqi has absorbed the swordsmanship scrolls of Buwanga and Xilan, so he knows that even these two famous and powerful sword masters are unremitting in the cultivation of basic swordsmanship in their personal practice. Day by day's perseverance, even such a strong person pays so much attention to the specialization of basic swordsmanship, Du Yuqi suddenly woke up, knowing that he had taken a detour.
At this time, he looked at the ancient magic device on the stage with great interest, and found that strictly speaking, this thing is really a good tool for practicing basic swordsmanship. Basic swordsmanship is much more profitable than practicing alone. Thinking of this, Du Yuqi came up with the idea of buying these magic devices.
However, there is a specialization in the art industry, and Du Yuqi knew that this kind of thing must be done by someone who is good at communication and business, so he memorized the address here, and then turned back.
After returning to the hotel where he was staying, Du Yuqi found a group of people eating supper.
They lived in the best hotel in Hutton Mar, so the decoration style is mainly gorgeous. You can see various paintings on the vaulted zenith and large-scale ceiling , Sculptures, because the interior of the building is generally dimly lit, all kinds of crystal lamps have also become the landscape in the building, shining brightly, reflecting these paintings and sculptures in every detail.
"Boss, why did you just come back, come here, and taste this fresh grilled Aidan perch! This was just caught at night from the Sage River an hour ago, and it tastes very delicious!"
Jet, who was full of oil, held a glass of wine and shouted excitedly.
Du Yuqi is not very interested in grilled fish, but he is very fond of a special drink on the table, "Latapago", which is a drink similar to rice wine, but made from the fertile Miranda plain. The top-grade oats produced above are brewed as raw materials, and cherry juice and coffee are added in it, which tastes unique.
Grilled Aidan perch and Latapago are very famous, not only well-known in the local area, but also implicitly two iconic foods of the Principality of Mar, because the Sage River is the principal source of drinking water in the Principality, also known as For the "Mother River". It used to be a desert. Later, it is said that the sage Mar created an oasis with magic and at the same time built a river for it. The area where the Sage River mainly flows is the most fertile Miranda Plain in the Principality.
While eating supper, Du Yuqi told Chang Mu about her needs. Hearing about shopping, Chang Mu immediately set off with high spirits, and then came back within half an hour to do something to Du Yuqi With a gesture of success, he pointed to his dimensional ring, indicating that he had successfully obtained it, and then asked Du Yuqi to take it over.
After getting these old magic devices, Du Yuqi naturally felt like a treasure, and started to practice immediately, and the rest of the people also tried it~IndoMTL.com~ but they all shook their heads and felt that this thing was actually very tasteless. Because their situation is completely different from Du Yuqi's, their own foundation is very solid, and there is no situation like Du Yuqi's unstable foundation at all. Immediately they dispersed and went to sleep.

Early the next morning, everyone gathered together for breakfast. Duize remained silent, but from his red eyes and haggard expression, he could feel a silent urging and urgency.
At this time, Du Yuqi was naturally understanding and helped him ask:
"Every time? When can we leave?"
When I was cutting a large piece of whole wheat bread with a knife and fork and dipping it in honey, I said vaguely:
"We have to wait. There is one item on the list that Holmes has not purchased, and this item is very important, so we must get it."
Du Yuqi said in surprise:
"What is so important? Let's hear it?"
