Chapter 154 Heroic Potential

The more advanced the equipment, the lower the demand for the user itself.

Fine gold and mithril are extremely precious and can be used to forge rare items.

This level corresponds to sequence 8.

This stage is also called the advanced person.

Sequence 8 extraordinary beings may be able to transform some ordinary things into sophisticated equipment through long-term infection with extraordinary characteristics.

But it is difficult for them to create rare-level props.

For example, Border Town can produce hundreds of pieces of sophisticated equipment.

But there are only two rare pieces of equipment in total, belonging to the royal power and the divine power respectively.

Rare level equipment means that it can unleash the power of Sequence 8.

This is also the reason why thieves dare not attack the border town.

Even if the thief has [Hand of the Madman], it won't work.

A piece of Sequence 8 thieves equipment cannot fight against two pieces of Sequence 8 equipment.

What's more, thieves do not have an advantage in the confrontation and will be suppressed by the power of divine power and royal power.

On the other hand, this level of power is really rare.

There are no Sequence 8 Transcendents in the entire border town.

In fact, most of the extraordinary humans are stuck at the Sequence 9 stage.

And there are very few advanced ones.

Human beings have a total of three higher paths.

But the higher the path, the harder it is to walk because it is too broad and vast.

You improve your three-dimensional attributes step by step.

As a result, I found that after becoming a Sequence 9 Transcendent, every promotion process was full of difficulties.

It was like my legs were stuck in mud, and every step I took required all my strength.

If a Sequence 9 knight trains [Basic Stab] ten thousand times a day, and this intensity needs to be maintained for three, five, or even ten years, the knight's three-dimensional attributes will be significantly improved.

So, who can last through this boring period?

The road is so long that there is no border in sight.

It’s not that you can’t get promoted.

But the strength that improves every day is difficult to detect.

Although it is said that if you don’t accumulate small steps, you can’t reach a thousand miles.

But in fact, the process of traveling thousands of miles away basically takes thirty or fifty years.

In short, the difficulty of becoming an advanced person is no lower than that of a mortal becoming an extraordinary person.

But the king could not wait that long.

According to Sophia, most transcendent beings on the "Warrior" and "Knight" pathways do not expect to advance to Sequence 8.

They must use certain special shortcuts to squeeze out their own potential within a limited time, tap out all the power of Sequence 9 as soon as possible, and reach the ultimate limit.

The king's army thus gave birth to extraordinary legions of different arms.

For example, the knight path consists of [Heavy Armor Knight], [War Knight], [Epee Knight], [Sky Knight], [Sniper Knight], etc.

[Guards Legion], [Vanguard Legion], [Heavy Armored Legion], etc. composed of warrior paths.

Basically, they are an army composed of Sequence 9 Transcendents.

Each legion develops in a different direction.

This is information that cannot be found in Border Town and is considered a kingdom secret.

Sophia also relied on Elise's bedtime stories to know a little bit about it.

Among the many armies, the most terrifying is the Magic Legion.

Even a Sequence 7 Wolf Lord would have to stay away when encountering the King's legion.

Because once you take action, it will be regarded as a provocation to the entire kingdom.

On the whole, when humans have one extraordinary legion after another, no magical race will dare to violate the king's order.

Even the naturally powerful dragon clan lost the ability to act recklessly after paying the price of blood.

Ten years ago, the king sent an order to the witch clan, ordering all witches to go to suppress the Black Forest.

And the witches had no choice but to obey the king's orders.

There are many factors involved, but Sophia is not clear about them.

It has to be said that with Sophia, everyone has a clearer understanding of the world situation.

…

[You developed the abilities and characteristics of the Demonic Wolf Path]

[Your level has been raised to level 15]

…

In today's battle, Bai Lan reached level 15.

A Sequence 9 transcendent must develop his own characteristics and abilities to a certain level before he can advance to Sequence 8.

Bai Lan's understanding is astonishing, and his powerful three-dimensional attributes allowed him to quickly master the magical wolf's special abilities.

The difficulty in upgrading that Sophia mentioned did not happen to him.

This should be related to the racial characteristics of the demon wolf.

Some higher creatures will accumulate strength simply by growing naturally.

For advanced extraordinary creatures, Sequence 9 only corresponds to the infant stage, and Sequence 8 corresponds to the growth stage.

But because of this, the general population of extraordinary races is declining and reproduction is difficult.

If you want to conceive offspring, you must pass on the extraordinary characteristics within your body.

And for extraordinary people, this behavior will cause their own vitality to be seriously injured, or even fall from the sequence.

Because future generations will inherit the power of their parents.

If Helka has an heir, his heir will also be a natural knight and will become a sequence 9 knight at an early age.

And there is a chance of becoming a Sequence 8 knight after reaching adulthood.

…

Because the benefits of exploring ruins are high.

So everyone unanimously set their sights on certain ruins.

I even hope to find the formula for some secret medicine through those ruins.

In the maze, the limit of vision is 100 meters.

It's like there's a huge invisible wall between them, making it difficult to communicate and send messages.

According to the earth, it is like the chaotic magnetic field of Bermuda, and the space is distorted, making it easy to lose your way.

Exploring is like opening a blind box.

But after Metatron reaches level 10, he can filter out most of the wrong paths and directly find the path to certain ruins.

This makes them much more efficient.

We arrived at another ruins.

This ruins is also sealed in dust underground in the underground world.

It's like a dark prison.

The moment they entered the underground, they were attacked by gray dwarves.

In the underworld, not all dwarves are extinct.

Some dwarves chose to fall and adapted to the harsh maze environment.

But from generation to generation, they basically lost their wisdom and degenerated into the social structure of primitive tribes.

It's just that the ground is full of dangers. Gray dwarves hide underground to survive and will attack certain adventurers who come to the maze.

This dwarf is mentioned in the maze guide.

But everyone was not merciful because of this.

They slaughtered the duergar tribe.

During the battle, Bai Lan was surprised by the explosive fighting power of this group of dwarves, which actually triggered his [Desperate Situation] characteristic.

The dwarf's equipment is very special and can resist magical effects, forcing Sophia to attack in close combat.

But in general, the strongest of this group of dwarves is only at the limit of Sequence 9.

Bai Lan and Sophia joined forces to kill the strongest dwarf. The other gray dwarves lost their desire to fight and kept begging for mercy, but they were all killed by Alex.

Then, in this dark and barbaric underground, the Pavilion Master and others rummaged through and found a lot of magic materials, as well as items of relatively little value.

It's just that there are no magic gold coins.

Bai Lan was a little surprised.

Sophia picked up a square shield, looked at the golden lines on the shield, and hummed: "It's true. Smelting the magic gold coins can enchant many props to make them magic resistant."

In addition to finding some sophisticated equipment.

The biggest gain is a incomplete warrior secret medicine formula.

This recipe was once complete, but then it became incomplete due to unknown circumstances.

It can be seen that the gray dwarves have been using this incomplete formula to ensure the basic combat power of the next generation.

Their situation in the maze is also very difficult.

They don't dare to explore outside, because the more they explore, the greater the losses to the tribe will be.

The environment here is dynamic.

Once they encounter creatures of sequence 8 or above, the gray dwarves will migrate, but they will encounter more dangers during the migration process.

"The effect of the secret medicine configured in this formula may only be applicable to non-transcendents below Sequence 9." Metatron roughly explained the scope of application of the formula.

But even so, this recipe is worth a lot of money.

Can strengthen players below level 10.

However, the basic conditions for refining the secret medicine are very high.

You need to use a portion of Sequence 9's extraordinary characteristics as a medicine guide and other magic materials as auxiliary medicines to refine several bottles of constitution potion.

Bai Lan said: "Let's find the complete secret medicine formula for now."

It is not suitable to refine constitution potions now.

Because the secret medicine is incomplete, the failure rate is very high.

It's better to find the complete recipe.

The Pavilion Master and Metatron both nodded in agreement.

Although they have a lot of materials, trying to refine the constitution potion will take a lot of time now.

It is better to return to the real world and try to refine it.

They got up and left this underground ruins space.

Under the leadership of Metatron, two more ruins were quickly found.

But it was all empty and fruitless.

It's highly likely that some adventurer has visited here.

Buildings that can become ruins basically contain mysterious power.

During the divine war more than a thousand years ago, the earth fell, and ordinary villages and towns would be buried underground. Only certain buildings containing extraordinary power could remain intact and stand on the ground amidst the disaster.

On their way to the third ruins, they suddenly heard a shocking dragon roar.

Looking up, a huge shadow flew across the sky, exuding a powerful aura that made people feel suffocated.

During their exploration, they encountered powerful creatures from Sequence 8.

But this was the first time I saw this kind of creature.

"Dragon clan..." Sophia murmured.

Although witches are also an advanced race, they cannot compare with dragons.

Because adult dragons are basically Sequence 7.

The witch has to go through the coming-of-age ceremony of her own clan before she can reach adulthood. The dragon clan does not have this limitation.

Furthermore, the witch has not appeared as an adult witch in many years.

Her sister Black Swan was a genius of the witch clan, but she died during the coming-of-age ceremony, which was very sad.

"Aren't the Sequence 8 dragons still adults?"

Bai Lan recognized the level of the flying dragon.

This was also the reason why he didn't dare to fly above the maze even though he had the wings of the black crow.

Even if he's wearing an invisibility cloak.

Some Sequence 8 creatures can also see through his [Secret] state.

Without the strength of Sequence 8, flying in the sky is tantamount to seeking death.

Dragons live longer than witches.

A dragon takes thousands of years to reach adulthood.

The Pavilion Master said: "That is a level 25 bipedal flying dragon."

Even though it was only level 25, even if the level 28 gargoyle came, it would probably be a gift.

The characteristic power of the "dragon" path is far more powerful than that of the gargoyle.

Bai Lan bit the knuckles on his fists, his eyes twinkling.

Sophia looked at him sideways: "Are you tempted?"

Bai Lan nodded: "Calcifer suggested that I slay the dragon. Moreover, the value of dragons is very high."

To be precise, the Dragon Clan is full of treasures.

Dragon blood can stimulate the potential power of [Dragon Scale Armor], transforming it into a rare prop.

"Then give it a try." Sophia had no fear at all.

Bai Lan looked at this fearless little witch and hesitated.

It's okay for them players, but Sophia is different.

This would put her life in danger.

"Let's follow him first," Bai Lan said.

In the outside world, dragons have become legends. Even in the maze, dragons are few in number.

If you finally encounter one, whether you want to kill it or not, you must mark its location.

The group of people wore invisibility cloaks and quickly shuttled across the ground, following the flying flying dragon.

After a while, they came to a cliff.

I saw the dragon landing in a large building above the cliff. It was a magnificent building like a palace and a tower, surrounded by layers, exuding a golden glow.

"Sophia..."

Sophia's movements were stagnant, tears filled her eyes, and she almost failed to follow the team.

Bai Lan turned around and glanced, vaguely aware of it, and slowed down.

"Sister, are you finally awake?!" Sophia cried.

"I sensed the aura of the Dragon Clan." The voice from Black Swan's soul was very weak.

"I thought I was the only one left."

"Don't cry, Sophia. No matter what the situation, you have to stay calm."

Sophia wiped the tears from her eyes, but she could not hide the sadness in her heart.

She could always feel the black swan's soul like a candle in the wind, as if it was going to be extinguished at any moment. One of the purposes of entering the maze was not only to find the Holy Grail, but also to find something beneficial to the black swan's soul.

"I'm in the Lost Labyrinth..." Sophia was talking to Black Swan in her mind.

"I understand, Sophia, I am very weak now and cannot talk to you for a long time. The Dragon Clan is very dangerous to you."

"But this is also an experience for you. You have werewolf blood flowing in your body. If..."

Black Swan's voice was very ethereal, and his energy was exhausted. He only said a few words and then fell into a deep sleep again.

Sophia tugged on Bai Lan's clothes.

Everyone was looking at the building complex on the cliff, which was magnificent and magnificent, with an indescribable sense of epicness.

The two-legged flying dragon lives in that building.

"What's wrong?" Bai Lan turned around and looked.

"Do you know the heroes of the werewolf clan?" Sophia asked an irrelevant question.

Bai Lan replied: "I only heard that they reached the end of the werewolf path."

Sophia shook her head and said: "This is just the most basic. The reason why werewolves have the title of hero is that they have the ability to lead a pack of wolves to hunt down superiors."

After a long history, only nine werewolves became heroes, successfully hunted legendary dragons, legendary giants, and legendary demons, became heroes, and reached the end of the werewolf path.

The so-called heroic potential is to do something legendary.

This is of great benefit to itself.
