Chapter 66: The Power of Talent after Advancement (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

It was a completely smooth push. After being continuously attacked and stacking the power of the Centaur Blood ornament to its fullest, Chu Cheng's strength had exceeded one hundred.

What is this concept?
He forcibly held on to dozens of orcs, pushing them back head-on. Even the many orc leaders, both big and small, who came after hearing the news, could not suppress him.

Orc Chief (Elite): Level 34, 5400 health points.

Accompanied by a huge roar, an orc chief with a very dark skin color came over waving a thick mace. Many orcs scattered, and the tall figure hit Chu Cheng head-on with the mace.

Chu Cheng could have easily dodged this attack, but he didn't, crossing his two swords.

"clang!"

The mace hit between the crossed swords, sparks flew, but Chu Cheng did not move at all.

"The power is not that high!"

He couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When did his power become higher than that of the BOSS?

With a slight curl of his lips, he kicked the mace away, and with a thought, he put a space mark on the BOSS, then he rushed forward with two swords showing streams of light.

"Frenzy!"

The two swords flashed continuously, and an afterimage appeared in an instant. Blood spurted out from the orc chief's body, and in just one second, 24 different injuries jumped out at the same time.
-
45, -100, -35-
45, -100, -35-
45, -100, -35
45 is the basic physical attack after the skill reduces the defense of the Orc Chieftain, 100 is the pure damage added by the talent, and 35 is the shadow damage of intelligence*1 that comes with the Mark of the Void.

The Orc Chieftain has no secret resistance, so he takes full damage.

The total damage in one round is 180, and there are eight rounds in total, which means a high after-tax damage of 1440 is dealt in one second.

Then he raised his two swords and slashed them fiercely:

"Giant force strike!"
-
340, -100, -35
After one set of attacks, a high damage of 1900 was dealt. Even though the Orc Chieftain had thick skin and flesh, he couldn't withstand a few hits.

The orc chieftain's physique, strength, agility and speed were completely suppressed. The only thing he had was more health than him, but his super high defense and life regeneration completely wiped out his health advantage.

Chu Cheng did not dodge or evade, but fought head-on with the orc leader.

Even without any skills, he still danced his dual swords like a rocket, stabbing them continuously, leaving bloody holes on the orc chieftain's body.

At this time, the advantage of the dual-wielding weapons professional expertise of the dual-blade warrior profession comes into play.

Although the attack power of one-handed weapons is not as good as that of two-handed heavy weapons, they have a fast attack speed, are light and flexible, and each attack will come with an additional 135 damage from the talent mark and the void mark. Compared with two-handed weapons, they have one more round of output, so the comprehensive output is definitely much higher than using only one weapon.

The Orc Chieftain's attack is only 358, minus his talent of 114 and his defense, it's just over .

Chu Cheng's skills can regenerate up to 65 life per second, and the orc chief is holding a mace, which is a heavy weapon with a low attack speed. This means
After being hit by two sticks in a row, Chu Cheng was knocked back by another skill and stunned for a second. He woke up and blocked the third stick. When the orc chief turned around and hit him for the fourth time with the mace in his hand, his health had already recovered.

One-handed sword mastery.

Dual wielding expert.

Weapon skills do not increase attributes, but improving skills can greatly enhance personal strength.

The higher the weapon skill, the better you are at hitting the target and parrying the opponent's attacks.

He was also surrounded, with orcs all around him leaving him no room to move. If it was a one-on-one fight in an open area, with the orc chief's strength and speed, as well as the heaviness of his weapon, he could block half of the ten attacks and dodge the remaining half with his body skills.

A double-knife stab can cause over four hundred damages.

Damage rebounds, and the pure damage in one round is as high as 1000.

No matter how much health the orc chieftain has, he cannot withstand such a high burst and soon becomes covered in wounds and unable to hold on.

There are people everywhere on the battlefield, and you can't run away even if you want to.

In less than 20 seconds, the orc chieftain's tall body fell heavily. With the death of the chieftain, the morale of the remaining orcs plummeted, but they did not flee. They continued to besiege under the command of the remaining orc leaders.

Then they fell one after another.

Eight minutes later, the last group of orcs fell and the battle ended.

"call!"

Chu Cheng let out a sigh of relief. This was easier than he had imagined.

After his talent was upgraded, his strength had undergone a qualitative change and was much stronger than before.

Quickly pack up the spoils, take a short rest, and continue on your journey.

After the battle just now, Chu Cheng already had enough understanding of his current strength.

"As long as I don't face those top bosses directly, or directly attack the castle fortress, basically no one can do anything to me."

In this dungeon, the only ones who can pose a threat to him are those BOSSes with terrifying templates of more than level 40. These top BOSSes are either in the Gear City, the Orc Tribe, or the Centaur Tribe. He just needs to avoid going to those places.

Alone, crossing the wilderness.

A day later, following a trampled path outside the gate of the orc tribe that had just been destroyed, we arrived at another orc tribe.

After just over ten minutes, the noisy orc tribe became quiet.

In the wasteland east of the Blackwater River, most of the alien races are orcs.

There are not many tribes, but their scale is larger than that of the ethnic minorities west of the Black Water River. Each tribe has at least two or three hundred people, and large tribes of five or six hundred or even a thousand people are common.

However, Chu Cheng only wiped out five tribes, and the next orc tribe he encountered was suddenly smaller in size.

The tribe is obviously very large, but there are not many orcs left.

Chu Cheng only killed two tribes. When he was searching for spoils, he found a letter from the Orc King. After reading the letter, he knew the reason.

The first major plot of the Golden Wasteland dungeon - the Battle of Blackwater River, is about to begin!

The Orc King's Court is recruiting tribes in the wasteland, and each tribe needs to contribute a group of warriors to respond to the call.

The tribe he encountered when he just came out of Gear City had not received the messenger yet, and all the tribal members were present.

As he slowly went deeper into the wilderness, the tribes closer to the orc kingship had already received the call and had sent out some warriors to respond to the call.

"According to the time, it is indeed about to start."

Although there are still more than ten days left, the Orc King needs to recruit and assemble first, which will take at least ten days to half a month, which is just the right time.

"There's still time, keep going!"

Chu Cheng thought about it for a while and decided not to go back for the time being.

If we go back now, we will just be preparing, doing some reconnaissance and harassment tasks at most. The reward will not be as high as destroying a tribe.

Moreover, these tribes have now sent out some warriors to respond to the call. Those who went out are elite warriors. Most of the clan leaders have followed. The remaining ones guarding their homes are the old, weak and disabled, and the threat has been greatly reduced.

Anyway, he didn't expect rewards from these small and medium-sized BOSSes, nor did he expect much experience. As long as he destroyed a few more tribes and got enough reputation as a reward, it would be enough.

There was no way. He was now at level 25, and most of the tribal warriors were hovering around level . The level gap was too big, and he had very little experience left.

Now, killing an ordinary orc warrior only gives you a few symbolic killing experiences.
