Chapter 154: Hero Career Advancement, Powerful New Specialties

"The total income of the Cursed Knight is 555 gold."

Lei Ming paused for a moment and said:

"The fighting method this time is different. Chu Cheng played a key role. The previous distribution method is not appropriate. I propose to give Chu Cheng, who played a key role, an additional subsidy of 100 gold, and Fang Xi an additional subsidy of 50 gold. What do you think?"

Everyone nodded immediately:

"no problem."

Seeing that everyone was sure, Lei Ming continued:
"The remaining 415 gold is divided equally among the 11 people, 37 gold and 72 silver each."

"Besides that, there are 700 gold to be divided equally among the 11 people, 63 gold and 63 silver per person. In total, each person can get 101 gold and 35 silver."

"Come and divide the gold."

Lei Ming traded with everyone one by one, and soon it was Chu Cheng's turn. He shared a total of 201 gold and 35 silver.

Fang Xi had less than him, 151 gold and 35 silver.

The seven people they rescued did not receive any gold, although they helped in dealing with the Cursed Knight.

After dividing the gold, Chu Cheng paid back the 400 gold he had borrowed from Fang Xi. He now had 327 gold left, and Fang Xi still had 510 gold.

In addition, 32 free attribute points and 34 skill points have been accumulated.

Fang Xi also accumulated an additional 18 free attribute points and 22 skill points, which was much less than him.

After dividing the gold, everyone was happy.

As for Zhang Chaosheng's team that has not arrived yet, there is nothing that can be done.

And they don't need to come now, because Lei Ming's goal has been achieved, the souls of the four Scourge Knights have been gathered, and now they have to rush back to forge swords.

As soon as they left, the team naturally disbanded.

Chu Cheng considered that the only place that could be attacked in this dungeon was the City of Disaster, and he didn't know how long it would take to gather a large team. Even if a large team was gathered, it was not certain that they could take it down. There was no point in staying in this dungeon. After discussing with Fang Xi, he decided to return immediately.

After making the decision, he immediately explained it to Feng Lingxing, Yao Ning and others.

The few of them didn't say anything, they just added each other as friends and said goodbye.

After a short wait, the space in front of them began to change, and the two appeared on the transmission platform again.

After returning to their residence, the two counted the supplies they had on them. The most numerous were soul fragments, soul essence, and undead essence. He gave them all to Fang Xi and asked her to deal with them.

She kept what she could use for herself and sold what she couldn't use.

"By the way, you can now consider preparing your career skills."

Chu Cheng warned:
"You can take a look at the trading platform when you have nothing to do. If you find a suitable skill or spell, you can buy it first."

He shook his head and sighed with some regret:
"It's a pity that you are already level 30 and can't change your profession. Otherwise, you can switch to a higher-level or even legendary hero profession."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xi's eyes showed surprise and he said:

"I can change my career!"

Chu Cheng asked doubtfully:
"After level 30, can't the Water of the Styx only change attributes and skills? It seems that you can't change your profession anymore."

"The water of the Styx is not allowed, but the essence crystals of the Styx are allowed."

"???"

She explained:

"The Essence Crystal of the Styx is a legendary gemstone, extremely rare, and can be used to refresh points. As long as you haven't been promoted to a legend, you can refresh it."

“There’s still this thing?”

Chu Cheng was extremely surprised.

"What's the price of this Styx Essence Crystal?"

"The market price is about 500 gold."

"Well, you can save money first and buy it when you find a suitable upper-level hero class inheritance."

"Yeah!" After Fang Xi returned to her villa, Chu Cheng finally had time to check himself and prepare for promotion.

He opened the panel and his eyes fell on the level column, with a promotion mark behind it.

With a light touch of the finger, the promotion mark turned into light and melted, and then the panel began to burn with flames.

Chu Cheng immediately felt a warm current emerging in his body, which was getting hotter and hotter. A little while later he seemed to realize something and stretched out his hand, only to find that there was a faint flame emerging on his body surface.

"Attribute adjustment!"

Every time a professional is promoted, there will be an attribute adjustment. Formal professionals are promoted to elite professionals, elite professionals are promoted to extraordinary professionals, and extraordinary professionals are promoted to legendary professionals. There will be an attribute adjustment every time you are promoted, and the higher the level, the greater the adjustment.

Among them, formal professionals are promoted to elite professionals when they reach level 30. The adjustments are the simplest, namely physical fitness and intelligence adjustments.

原来1体质=10点生命与10点体力，调整为1点体质=20点生命与20点体力。

The original 1 intelligence = 10 mana points, adjusted to 1 intelligence = 20 mana points.

Other properties remain unchanged.

The promotion of a formal professional to an elite professional is just a small promotion, with no major adjustments. Only if an elite is promoted to an extraordinary professional will there be major adjustments.

After the adjustment was completed, Chu Cheng opened the hero profession template again. At this time, a green + sign appeared in the hero profession expertise column and the hero skill column.

He first checked the hero's expertise column, and a prompt popped up. He read it carefully and was surprised.

"Unlike other hero classes, there is no new feat when advancing, but the [Eternity] feat is upgraded once."

Chu Cheng remembered that it was written in the hero information he had read before that every time a hero class was promoted to a higher rank, a new specialty would be acquired, and a new hero skill could be learned every 10 levels.

He had thought he could choose a new specialty, but he didn't.

However, although it was unexpected, I was not disappointed.

There is no way to be disappointed, what can you do without new expertise.

Heroic Expertise - Eternity: Immune to any time-related effects.

Feature 30: Eternal Reincarnation. Every seconds, the power of time will wash over you and expel all your negative states.

Feature 1: Eternal life, anchors itself in a specified state, returns to the anchored state at the moment of death, can be resurrected at a specified location, cooldown period is month.

Feature three: Past and future. When the power of time flows through yourself, you can call upon phantoms of your past and future to attack your opponents. The phantoms are invincible, and their attributes and behaviors are synchronized with your own.

Tip: The effect cannot be dispelled, priority law level.

The original two characteristics remained unchanged, but a third new characteristic appeared later.

Chu Cheng carefully looked at this feature and quickly understood its meaning.

It's very simple. When your attack triggers the time lock, or when there is a new time hero skill that locks the opponent in the future, you will summon two phantoms of yourself to attack the opponent at the same time.

The phantom is synchronized with you, with the same attributes, equipment, and skills. The phantom will use the same skills as you.

"Well, that's equivalent to a three-fold explosion!"

“Quite powerful!”

Chu Cheng was very satisfied with this and felt that it didn't matter if he didn't have any new expertise.

And at level 30 you will get a new hero skill.

He clicked on the + sign next to the hero skills, and five unselected hero skills popped up. He took a closer look and found that four of them had appeared before, namely Time Exchange, Time Exile, and Sands of Time, and the other two were new, namely Time Impact and Time Shelter.

Time Shock (Awakening): Release a force of time to impact any target within visual range, with different effects depending on the target's camp.

Skill Effect 100: Ally movement speed +100, attack speed +100%, casting speed +15%, all skills and spells have their cooldown reset immediately, lasting seconds.

Skill Effect 100: Enemy movement speed -100, attack speed -100%, casting speed -15%, all skills enter a static state and cannot be used, lasting for seconds.

The skill has a cooldown of 5 minutes and consumes 10 time mana.

Tip: This skill can be dispelled, with priority law level.
