Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 6 Internal Strength
Rhodes looked back and saw a vague blue figure looking at him, and the weird mural behind that figure was shining with strange light.

Why can I always see some strange things when I look back, Rhodes thought.

Rhodes turned around, clenched the ax in his hand, and stared at the blurry figure.

"Don't be nervous, I won't hurt you." The figure made a voice, his voice was hoarse and mixed with echoes.

Rhodes didn't let go of his guard when he heard his words, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am the master here, and I need your help." The figure made a voice.

"Are you a ghost? Why do you call me?" Rhodes asked.

"This is a projection I left here, please don't try to communicate with me, just listen to me patiently." The figure continued. "First of all, let me introduce myself, my name is... Forget it, who I am is not important to you, maybe you can't find my name in history, but you have to remember that I am not an ordinary unknown person. I was a famous big man in that era, and I swear on my honor."

Rhodes was a little speechless when he heard this, he didn't tell his name, and he also emphasized that he was a big shot, and this person's brain must not be normal.Wait, why did I add the word "also"?

"You have to remember what I'm going to say next. You have to keep going forward, defeat the creatures you meet along the way, and defeat the ghouls that my body turned into, and get the weapons I used in my lifetime. After leaving here, I have been Go north, keep going north, don't ask me why I go north, as long as you go far enough, you will know what I want you to do for me." The figure said.

Rhodes was a little puzzled. Why did this person ask the people here to go all the way north?Is it to let others know that the world is actually spherical?
When he just crossed over a few days ago, he asked those adventurers who had gone out to sea, and confirmed to them that this world is also on the sea level. When ships come from afar, they always see the mast first, and then the hull, which shows that this The world is also on a planet.

After saying this, the vague figure disappeared, and the light of the murals on the wall also went out.

Rhodes decided to continue walking forward, and there must be a way out in the end.Although I was a little afraid that that person was so powerful that his corpse could easily kill him.But there is no way but to move on.

He walked into the room full of spider silk, and the door was closed directly after he entered the room.

Fortunately, there was no danger in the room.

In the middle of the room was the corpse of a large spider the size of a two-story house. This large spider was a close relative of the frost-eating spider, called the frost-eating giant spider.

This big spider has been dead for many years, but its huge corpse is still a little scary.

Rhodes felt that the spider must be too big and starved to death after being locked up here for so many years.

The Nords will "live" after death, and animals will certainly not be able to move by themselves without someone casting necromantic magic.

Rhodes walked around the room a few times and finally found a door blocked by spider silk.

These spider silks lose their strength over the years.Rhodes used the ax in his hand to clear the door to make a way for him to pass.

Through this door, Rhodes entered a passage.

This passage reminded him of a game called Maiden Scroll that he had played before crossing.

On one side of the passage, there are many stone pavements where people can lie down.

There are ghouls lying in these places in the game. After the protagonist enters, these ghouls all get up and take up weapons to fight the protagonist.

And there were no ghouls on these stone pavements in front of Rhodes.

Rhodes felt a little strange, could someone have been here before, and those ghouls were led together by them and locked up in a certain location?

With doubts, he continued to move forward.The passage is very long, and Rhodes walked more carefully. It took him more than ten minutes to pass through the entire passage. After descending dozens of steps, passing through several corners, and finally going up more than ten flights of stairs, a huge door appeared In front of him, behind the door was a hall nearly ten meters high.

Rhodes stood at the door of the hall, stuck his head in and secretly observed the situation inside the hall.

In the middle of the hall is a row of steps. What is on the steps is not visible from the outside because of the viewing angle.On the two floors of the hall are more than a dozen sarcophagi.

Rhodes felt that after he entered, the gate would be closed, and then a ghoul would climb out of each sarcophagus and beat him together, and the sarcophagus of the tomb owner should be placed on the steps.

When he finished fighting those ghouls or was halfway through the fight, he would jump out and join the group beating himself.

Rhodes hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go in. The ghouls move slowly. As long as they rush in and find the hidden exit, they can run out from the exit before they react.

Although this way of doing things will definitely not get the treasure of the owner of the tomb, but the life of a dog is still the most important thing.

He walked into the hall slowly, and nothing unusual happened. Rhodes stood in the hall and waited for a while, but there was nothing unusual. Just when he was about to stamp his feet to wake them up, his reason stopped himself in time.

If there are no monsters here, wouldn't it be more convenient to find the exit by myself, why would I have the idea of ​​calling them up?
Could it be that the death-loving character of the original owner of the body affected me?

Rhodes controlled his footsteps, made himself as quiet as possible, and walked up the steps step by step. At the end of the steps was a throne, and behind the throne was a sarcophagus. If it was a girl's scroll, there would be a side recording The wall of dragon roar.But there is no such a wall in front of Rhodes.

He continued to walk forward quietly, intending to secretly stab the contents of the sarcophagus, but found that there was only a long sword and an animal skin scroll in the sarcophagus.

Picking up the animal skin scroll and the long sword, he found that the sarcophagus was engraved:

"Congratulations on completing such a thrilling and exciting adventure. It is a pity that my friend was not placed here in the end. I think my lovely pets should treat you well, but there are no ghouls to accompany you along the way." It’s lonely. I took my friend’s weapon. In order to make up for the time you wasted, I left an interesting weapon and a practical combat skill here. I won’t talk nonsense if you take I left the weapons and scrolls, I hope you can go all the way north, and when you go far enough, you will know how much we need you. Love you Ravington."

Rhodes didn't know why he would talk like this even though he was a savage, it made him feel a little nauseous.

I'm sorry that the big one died long ago, and I also encountered a ghoul.

Until now, Rhodes still has some questions, how did the frost bite spider get into the first room, and why they didn't bury anyone in the tomb, but he encountered a ghoul at the entrance.

I still don’t want to. With my current IQ, I might not be able to figure it out.

Rhodes picked up the animal skin scroll again, and a battle skill was recorded on the front of the scroll. Rhodes studied it carefully for a long time, but finally gave up because there were many unfamiliar words on it.

I still waited until I went out and asked Baron to read it to him. I didn't know that such a brainless person as Baron could recognize most of the characters.

By the way, what happened to Baron?

Rhodes rolled up the scroll and found that there were words on the back, recording the attributes of the long sword.The writing on it was similar to the writing in the sarcophagus, and he could still understand these writing and the writing in the sarcophagus, but the writing on the animal skin scroll was like a heavenly book.

Bane of the Wise: This is a sharp and solid weapon that I'm sure wielders will love.It has a magic that can be used once a day and lasts for a day. Active use can temporarily reduce intelligence by a creature.Its character is a bit naughty. If it is not used within a day, it will randomly reduce the intelligence of a nearby creature, and the user of this sword will not be affected. "

Rhodes immediately picked up the long sword. While picking up the sword, a blue light flashed on the sword, and then he felt that his IQ seemed to be online again.

He observed the sword himself. It had been in this tomb for many years, and it still looked very sharp. When he swiped the sword on the ground, a deep scratch appeared on the ground.I really don't know what kind of craftsmanship makes this sword so sharp after so many years, Rhodes sighed.

Rhodes remembered something he had forgotten.

"System, can you record the combat skills on this animal skin scroll?"

"Scanning……"

"It has been recorded that the host can choose a type of martial arts to choose."

Rhodes thought for a while and decided to choose internal strength, most of which can comprehensively enhance all aspects of ability.

"Please choose one of the following three types of internal strength."

Sunflower Treasure: If you want to practice magical skills, draw a sword from the palace.In addition to internal strength, it also includes swordsmanship and acupuncture.

The Eight Desolation and the Six Harmonies is the only self-respecting skill: also known as: Everlasting and Immortal Changchun Kungfu, which can only be cultivated with the highest internal energy as the foundation.

Shenzhao Gong: The exercises recorded in the Shenzhao Sutra have the magic of bringing the dead back to life.

Rhodes chose Divine Illumination Kung Fu almost without hesitation, and he could be brought back to life after cultivating to a high level, which made him very excited.

Shenzhao Gong lv1: Improve physical fitness in an all-round way, and actively running this skill can speed up wound healing. (Upgrade method: in the lottery draw the follow-up mental method cheats of Shenzhao Gong or self-breakthrough)
After choosing the Divine Illumination Kung Fu, the system directly mounted the Divine Illumination Kung Fu, and Rhodes felt that there was a breath of energy in his body, which made him feel very comfortable, and it felt that his strength and reaction speed had increased some.

But the upgrade seems to be a bit difficult. If you are unlucky, you may stay at the first level for a long time.

The combat skills recorded on this animal skin scroll must be very unusual, so the martial arts given by the system after scanning are so advanced, you must learn this combat skill after you go out.

Rhodes began to look for the exit. He walked around the throne for a long time but couldn't find any hidden exit.

He was a little tired from walking, and sat down on the throne, crossing his legs and leaning on the back of the throne, and then Rhodes and the throne fell from the hidden hole below...
