Chapter 304: Dragon Fist…… Dragon Fist……
Fei suddenly understood what was going on.
No wonder Elena couldn’t use the scrolls that Fei created nor the scrolls that were on Azeroth Continent for a long time. There was a hidden path of cultivation that was pre-setup for the mercenaries of Diablo World.
“Which one should I choose?”
Fei thought about it and looked at Elena who didn’t notice anything. It seemed like Elena couldn’t hear anything that this NPC said and couldn’t see the seven characters projection in front of Fei. Therefore, Fei explained what was going on to Elena. After all, she should choose since it was about her future cultivation.
Elena lightly caressed the bowstring on her bow. Her slender and smooth hands didn’t have any calluses that archers typically had. After Fei explained the pros and cons of each class to her, she seemed to have thought about it for a bit. Suddenly, she burst into laughter as Fei looked at her earnestly.
“Alexander, can you choose for me?” She asked.
This was the first time that Elena joked with Fei.
Fei was shocked by the prankster-like smile on this Valkyrie’s face. He felt like his eyes were burned by the unprecedented beauty, and everything around Elena had lost their colors and brilliance.
Finally, Fei chose Paladin as Elena’s second bloodline.
Among the seven classes, Paladin wasn’t as agile as Assassin and wasn’t as tough as Barbarian. However, it was good at both offense and defense. With the powerful self-healing and support abilities, she would be in great coordination with Fei.
Elena’s current class was in between Amazon and Sorceress, and Fei didn’t want her to become a Druid that would transform into beasts and a Necromancer that played around with corpses. After giving it some thought, Fei believed that Paladin was the most suitable class for Elena.
After Fei confirmed the selection, a dash of white flames flowed out of NPC Asheara’s body and merged into Elena’s forehead.
“There are a lot of new knowledge in my head…… they were never there before.”
Elena soon sensed the changes in her body.
It was a vague and strange feeling. Like how Fei gave Star Properties to people like Lampard, the reward of this quest gave the beautiful female mercenary a seed of new power. As long as she continued to kill monsters and accumulate experience points, this seed would grow into a tall tree that would soar into the sky.
After this was done, the two of them continued the third quest of [Kurast Docks].
The name of the quest was [Khalim’s Will]. It was a quest of collecting items, and it was very hard to complete. Fei and Elena had to go to places like [Spider Forest], [Flayer Jungle], and [Lower Kurast] to collect different items. They would then need to use Horadric Cube to transform them into the scepter [Khalim’s Will].
This scepter had unbelievable power and was needed to destroy the Compelling Orb that protected the final boss of [Kurast Docks], Mephisto. It was closely tied to the final quest [The Guardian] which required Fei to defeat Mephisto.
In the last few days of killing monsters, Fei had already collected the first few items. Since the required items were at different locations, getting to them wasted a lot of time. Currently, Fei still needed the last item.
In the next four hours, Fei and Elena moved towards the last item [Khalim’s Heart] and killed monster along the way. The two of them carefully searched the [Sewers of the Kurast Bazaar] with blood and chipped bones of monsters on their bodies, and they finally found [Khalim’s Heart] before the time limit of the day was up.
Fei didn’t choose to go back to [Kurast Docks] to transform the items into the scepter. Rather, he spent 50,000 gold coins and got some potions. These potions might save lives of Chambord tomorrow during the kingdom ranking matches. Then, he left Diablo World.
……
It was about evening in the real world.
The daytime during winter was really short, and the night came really quick. Darkness soon enveloped the world.
When Fei returned to his central tent, his bodyguard Torres came by and told him that Angela got invited by the Elder Princess Tanasha and she was at Tanasha’s palace right now. Tanasha sent another message to Fei later and said that Angela would be staying for the night as there was a party going on.
Fei lightly frowned, and he understood what Tanasha was trying to do.
However, it was good for Angela to experience parties where there were a lot of nobles and influential figures. If she liked those kinds of parties, Fei was willing to let her participate in more of those. After all, Fei wanted Angela to be happy and worry less.
After the simple dinner, the entire Chambord was focused on training and cultivation.
After warriors of Chambord got new training scrolls, they started to put in hard work. All of them wanted to quickly increase their strength before the matches the next day, and they wanted to defeat the opponents and get their king the control of the legion that was about to be formed.
The stars were really bright in winter’s nights.
Like always, Fei switched to Assassin Mode and dashed out of the camp area. He went to the battlefield in Moro Mountains and waited for the mysterious man to arrive.
Practicing and battling with the mysterious man at night was a rare learning experience for Fei.
The king of Chambord treated this mysterious man as a boss in Diablo World. Using all strength to battle an opponent who was much stronger than him was a great practice. Fei’s potential would be developed, and it was a good warm-up before Fei had to face the real bosses in Diablo World.
For some reason, the mysterious man didn’t show up yet.
Under Assassin Mode, Fei only used five minutes to get through the most powerful magic array surrounding the battlefield. Also, only one-third of his spiritual power was used.
As Fei’s strength increased, his spiritual power also increased dramatically as he followed the training methods documented in the purple scroll. It was no longer a challenge for him to get through the magic arrays, and it meant that the effectiveness of the training via traveling through magic arrays would decrease a lot.
If it wasn’t for the mysterious man, Fei won’t even bother coming to this battlefield anymore.
After two hours, just as Fei thought the mysterious man was not going to come, that thin and cold figure appeared.
Like always, the man tossed a delicately framed booklet to Fei as a daily gift.
Fei flipped open the booklet and found that this booklet contained more than a dozen high-level combat techniques. Every single combat technique was clearly explained, and the areas of improvement were clearly noted. What made Fei more excited was that the author of the booklet was still Emperor Yassin! Compared with Warrior Energy Training Scrolls, this booklet was more valuable. A high-level combat technique was a powerful trump card; it allowed lower-level warriors to defeat warriors who were in higher-levels.
A booklet like this would allow Fei to understand each of the combat techniques, and he would be able to create a lot more high-level combat technique for the Saint Seiyas based on this booklet under Assassin Mode.
“Thanks, elder!” Fei was very happy.
Last night, Fei intentionally murmured the following lines to the mysterious man’s ear “Eh, how can I live without high-level combat techniques? As long as I can get my hands on a few high-level combat techniques……”
It felt like the mysterious man could do anything. After hearing Fei’s words, he was able to bring Fei a booklet that had at least 16 high-level combat techniques in it.
After these days of interactions, Fei was no longer careful and cautious when talking with this mysterious man. Although this man didn’t like to talk, he was a good person who was cold on the outside but caring on the inside. Therefore, Fei treated the mysterious man like an elder; he was really relaxed and intimate.
What followed was the ten strikes agreement.
As dust flowed in the air, Fei got beat by the mysterious man hard. He tried his best and was lucky enough to not get his bones fractured.
After ten minutes, Fei bent his back and placed his hands on his knees; he breathed heavily like a dog.
He had already given up on estimating this mysterious man’s strength. Didn’t matter how much progress Fei made these days, the mysterious man could still easily defeat Fei as if he was beating a baby. The difference in strength between them couldn’t be measured.
Fei was sure that the mysterious man was a Moon-Class Elite Warrior, but he wasn’t sure which level this man was on.
“See you tomorrow night.”
After the battle, the mysterious man pointed out the areas where Fei could still improve on.
As the man was about to leave, Fei suddenly got close to him and murmured: “Damn, I’m really curious about Emperor Yassin’s most famous [Dragon Fist]. I really wonder what kind of technique it is…… Only if I can see the technique scroll myself……”
