Chapter 877: 320. Consecutive Kills (Double Chapter)_2

”Huh, the range of the illusion has also increased. It used to be five meters, now it’s ten meters! With this, the effect of confusing the enemy is even better.” Rein felt a surge of joy in his heart.

”22 Golden Skill Points, used up 4 points, now there are 16 points left.” Rein’s eyes flickered.

”The effect of the Armor-Breaking Strike is very good. For enemies with witchcraft defenses, the effect should be excellent.”

The effect of the riding spear compared to the dual-handed warhammer, the biggest difference is that when facing witchcraft shields, which have strong resilience or elasticity, the hammer as a blunt weapon would have much of its kinetic energy absorbed, causing the lethality to drop significantly.

But the riding spear is different; it’s like using a needle to pierce a balloon. No matter how resilient the defense, if you attack at one point, the lethality is huge.

”Since that’s the case, let’s upgrade the ’Armor-Breaking Strike’ directly to an Advanced Secret Skill!”

After Rein calculated and consumed seven Golden Skill Points, system notifications rang out one after another:

[Congratulations, you have comprehended the Intermediate Secret Technique of Lance of Langicero: Armor-Breaking Strike!]

[Congratulations, you have comprehended the Advanced Secret Skill of Lance of Langicero: Armor-Breaking Strike!]

...

At the same time, a torrent of ’Armor-Breaking Strike’ training memories flooded into Rein’s mind!

It was as if Rein had spent over twenty years diligently practicing the secret technique ’Armor-Breaking Strike’ of the riding spear in some mysterious space.

After fully digesting all the memories, Rein looked at the new icon of ’Armor-Breaking Strike’ on the Weapon Master (Legendary) panel.

The pattern in the icon changed from a knight on a warhorse to a knight riding a griffin.

And the knight was maneuvering the griffin in a high-speed dive, the riding spear in his hand piercing at a high speed that seemed to tear through the air towards the lower diagonal.

There were many concentric lines on both sides of the riding spear, seemingly indicating that the air currents were like a tornado when thrusting.

Additionally, there was a subtle change in the text description of the Secret Technique ’Armor-Breaking Strike’:

Armor-Breaking Strike (Advanced Secret Skill) Effect: Utilizing a type of Original Force combined with piercing power, execute a spear technique with immense penetration power.

(Note: If accompanied by a suitable mount, the power of the Armor-Breaking Strike will be enhanced.)

(To upgrade Armor-Breaking Strike to Top Secret Technique, the following conditions must be met: 1. Lance of Langicero lv18 or above (specialization can offset part of the level requirement); 2. Fire Dragon Breathing Technique lv16 or above; 3. Strength above 50 points, Agility above 45 points, Constitution above 45 points; 4. Consume 4 Golden Skill Points.)

At this moment, Julie, the Griffin Knight responsible for taking Rein to Meist County City, was feeling a bit uncomfortable.

For such a beauty of a Great Knight like her, the Lord Rein behind her didn’t talk much at all, and before long, he suddenly released his whole aura once, almost scaring her griffin into panic.

But Lord Felk had already instructed that the lord behind her was very powerful, and she must not offend him, so naturally, she couldn’t say anything.

But it happened twice already!

Her heart was pounding hard.

If Lord Rein continues like this, she might still manage, but the griffin beneath her might suddenly lose control!

While she was still hesitating about whether to gently remind the lord behind her, the lights of Meist County City at night gradually appeared in their sight.

As the griffin just flew to the edge of Meist County City, Rein thought for a moment and said to Julie in front of him, ”Julie, drop me off here.”

”As you command, my lord.”

Julie thought for a moment and instantly understood Rein’s intention.

This was to avoid alarming the enemy; Lord Rein must be planning to stealthily head towards the Earl Habs Mansion.

...

A few minutes later.

In the study on the second floor of the Earl Habs Mansion.

The door suddenly opened silently.

”Who?” Cleya, behind the desk, immediately stood up and assumed a combat stance, on alert.

”Don’t be tense, Cleya, it’s me.” A familiar voice called out.

A familiar tall figure of Cleya appeared before her eyes!

”Rein! What brings you here!” Cleya’s pretty face immediately showed surprise, and then she gave a bright smile.

Obviously, Cleya was delighted by Rein’s appearance.

”Don’t forget, I am your Guardian Knight. You were in danger, wasn’t I supposed to come?” Rein smiled and said.

But before Cleya could respond, Rein’s expression became serious, and he continued, ”Let’s talk about the situation first.”

He naturally knew the priorities; now was not the time for chatting.

”Yes! The situation is like this, around two o’clock in the afternoon today, the steward Yodel of the mansion disappeared.”

”Then, approximately every hour, a guard, a maid, or even a footman would disappear, and currently, the entire mansion is in a state of panic....” Cleya nodded, quickly explaining the situation.

Seeing Rein appear, Cleya somehow felt that a heavy stone in her heart had finally settled down.

Her entire mentality suddenly relaxed a lot.

Even though she knew the enemy was lurking around, ready to strike, she wasn’t as worried anymore.

”Every hour?” Rein confirmed with his brow slightly furrowed.

”Yes.” Cleya nodded.

”Didn’t you try to find out the hiding place of the other side?”

”No, we tried a few times, but their methods are very secretive. Unless everyone is in one hall, there’s always a chance of missing something.” Cleya shook her head helplessly and said.
