the last king of darkness

Chapter 38: Endurance

Caramon still refused to communicate with them until they arrived at the location.

The other two people know only a little. It is said that Donna is the daughter of a wealthy businessman. She provided Karamon with the missing sun crystal during the fourth-order psychic promotion ceremony, helping him successfully pass the graduation test and become an official fighter. People, the two sides got acquainted and quickly fell in love unilaterally.

Just as Caramon was getting ready to spend the rest of his life with her, he was kicked.

Although there is not much information, it is obviously completely incompatible with Consul Alex.

Rhodes asked them again if they had seen the consul of the second largest district in the outer city. All three said no. Only Caramon said dullly that he seemed to be a bearded man, but when he was asked specifically, he said that he remembered I don't know.

Things are looking a little weird.

Rhodes decided to ask Caramon about his girlfriend alone when the patrol was over, and he should be able to recover by then.

The first task now is to kill monsters and get souls.

The four started patrolling along the same route as yesterday.

Their pace was neither fast nor slow. According to Raistlin, this was the most standard pace mentioned in textbooks. They completed a patrol in half an hour. The pace increased at both ends and slowed down in the middle.

According to statistics, such patrols have the highest rescue rate.

Today's luck was very good. As soon as the patrol started, they encountered three groups of gray-level monsters in a row. The number was very large, at least two hundred.

Rhode fired ten shots and obtained 51 [Dust-like Souls], which made Raistlin sigh.

"Really rich."

Iger reminded: "These flying ash-like monsters die as they arise, and it is very worthless to attack them with consumables."

Rhodes also sensed that the gray-level monsters are indeed very weak. Just like the old blind Moore said in class, their soul waveforms are like a straight line, very flat, and almost no flash of spiritual energy can be seen.

But real silver is a very precious spiritual material.

All materials that can react with spiritual energy are called spiritual materials. They have various uses and are the most important resources for human beings.

Real silver with a purity of more than [-]% is a controlled substance and is not allowed to be traded freely.

A real silver bullet only contains less than one-tenth of a gram of real silver, and the price is as high as seven silver cords. It is really not worthwhile to use it to wipe out some dust that can be cleaned up easily.

But he is just a novice, there is no other way.

There were only 55 rounds of ammunition in Rhodes, and after ten shots, only 45 rounds remained.

But tonight is indeed different. There are more monsters visible to the naked eye, which seems to be the reason for the "dark moon night" that the Scarface Defense Minister said.

The night is long, 45 rounds of ammunition will definitely not be enough, and this kind of handjob every night, even if he sells himself to Kashan as a meat slave, he still can't afford the money.

After paying off his debts and buying new cartridges, he had only three hundred silver cords left in his pocket.

If you don't be careful, the one thousand silver ropes Kassan just borrowed will be gone in an instant.

After thinking for a while, Rhodes pushed a slider on the gun stock up.

With a click, the "Raven" changed to the strong attack mode, and the energy storage time of the spiritual gun increased to six seconds, and the required spiritual power also jumped from 40 to 150, but the real silver bullet contained The spiritual power has also doubled, and its power is much stronger.

The point is, save bullets.

This was taught to him by elder sister Mina.

This "Raven" has many functions, but Lauren seems to think he can't use it, and doesn't tell him.

Seeing this action, all three of them turned their heads, their voices full of surprise.

"Rod, do you know how to use a heavy gun?"

"Is your spirit capable? I tried it when I was a level-[-] psychic, and I would collapse after three shots at most."

Rhodes felt a little baffled: "Didn't I fire dozens of shots yesterday? Even if the psionic energy required has quadrupled, it wouldn't be a problem for me to fire seven or eight shots, right?"

Caramon laughed and said, "Rod, I always forget that you are a one-year new student."

Iger explained seriously: "Spiritual energy is not a reservoir. Our souls are not filled with psychic energy. The way we use psychic energy is like squeezing water from a sponge. The sponge, you know, is Qianhu Town. If it is covered with water, no matter how much you squeeze it, a little bit will always come out."

Raistlin laughed and said, "To use old blind Moore's words, to put it simply, psychic energy is like our strength. You use it sparingly, and it can last for a long time. If you carry a heavy load on your back and use it intensively, it will soon disappear. collapsed."

"The total amount of psionic energy we estimated is a very rough value, with very large fluctuations, and basically has no reference value."

This explanation made Rhodes understand quickly, and it also made him a little difficult to understand. He tried a heavy gun and even fired ten shots without any problem. At that time, Mina praised him for his strong endurance, but Rhodes thought it was just kindness encouragement.

"Maybe I'm gifted?"

Rhodes thought to himself, and asked curiously: "Then what reference is used for the strength of general psychic power?"

Raistlin said: "The most important indicator is the level of psionic power, followed by the highest level of psionic power. However, psionic power is affected by many factors, and these indicators are only of general reference value."

Iger said with a smile: "As the old blind man said, psionic powers are always available."

The three of them burst into laughter.

It also allowed Rhodes to fully understand the relationship between soul and psionic energy.

"I didn't expect to learn more knowledge here."

Rhode's heart moved, and he hurriedly repeated what the old blind Moore said in class during the day, hoping to hear deeper content.

Being good as a teacher is simply an instinct engraved in human genes. When studying, I just want to fall asleep, but when I tell others, I can get excited.

Especially Caramon, he wanted to restore his failed image in front of Rhodes, so he spoke in great detail.

"Old Blind spoke too briefly, he is underestimating you."

Caramon sharply commented on this teacher who left a deep impression on many students.

"In addition to the main level, monsters are also divided into ranks. It is inaccurate to just look at the soul waveform. It is also necessary to combine the spiritual power level, monster's attributes, types and abilities to accurately judge its approximate strength."

Caramon explained to Rhodes in detail later how to distinguish and judge the strength of monsters, how to formulate tactics against them, and even how to allocate personnel and arrange advanced content.

Iger interrupted from time to time while licking the grass potato jam with honey.

Raistlin fought alone in front of a group of shadowy black dogs. He frequently turned his back to the most enemies, and his front was airtight with a sword and shield.

"Have you finished talking?"

The monsters were killing more and more, which made Raistlin, who was somewhat lacking in attack power, panic.
