Chapter 211 Rakshield Ascension Ceremony
Cheng Tian, ​​whose attention was originally focused on the Silver Prince, couldn't help but turn his gaze when he heard a strangely familiar rapid chanting coming from nearby. He then saw the elf Ivan holding a steel spear, pointing his sword at the ground as he cast a spell.

Almost instantly, Cheng Tian found the corresponding profession and ability system for Ivan in his mind.

The Sorcerer is an A-rank Bracer in the Trails in the Sky series. It is a unique class of the Sorcerer "Krutznardan". It combines different disciplines such as military strategy, sorcery, and Taoist magic. While possessing considerable melee combat ability, it also knows various support and attack spells.

In the dwarf-elf duo, Ivan, who appears to be slender, actually has a flexible role that combines front-line and support positions, rather than being a purely back-line spellcaster.

The phrase "The cold light of the desert is like iron armor" that he just chanted rapidly corresponds to his professional skill - Fangshu Steel Lv4, which can release an additional physical damage reduction effect to himself or others, while granting them a protective shield with 1 point of absolute health, theoretically able to withstand one instance of any damage.

In other words, as long as he has mana and his skills are off cooldown and ready to be reloaded, he can put a knight's armor on someone anytime, anywhere without affecting their equipment. This makes him a very important core character in the strategy of dealing with certain tricky, high-damage bosses.

However, Ivan has not only never explained the true effect of this skill to anyone, but the skill itself also has a unique information-hiding effect unique to sorcerers. Therefore, even those who have been blessed by sorcery steel do not know its specific effect and only regard it as the first damage absorption shield with a good effect.

Even though Cheng Tian only knew the original ability and had no idea what additional effects the skill would have after being leveled up... But seeing Luo Meiling completely unharmed after being struck by lightning gave Cheng Tian, ​​who knew that there were some shields in the Trails in the Sky system that could grant absolute life points, some guesses about it.

If the elves are sorcerers, then this dwarf is probably not a warrior either, right?
Just as Cheng Tian was thinking this, Tie Xu directly demonstrated his combat role through his actions.

His previously free hand now held a dwarven musket.

Because of the difficulty in reloading this thing and its background setting, it's considered a weapon that sits on the same table as crossbows, so it wasn't banned.

Immediately afterwards, the dwarf pressed his hand to the ground, and with a cloud of smoke rising, a fat and strong brown bear appeared out of thin air. It first roared, and then retreated to the side of the dwarf Ironbeard, baring its teeth and looking at the greatsword knights who were hacking at the barricades, looking as if it was about to rush out at any moment.

"Good Misha."

Ironbeard calmed the bear's head, then, using his summoned creatures as cover, began firing precise shots.

Although Ironbeard the dwarf has not yet completed his class change, he was a hunter who made a living by hunting in the original world. He also gained a summoning skill by chance after entering the dungeon.

Strictly speaking, however, the true species of this brown bear summoned by skill should be "Bear Spirit".

Yes, that's right, it's the special summoned unit held by the Radiant Druids in Blade & Soul 2.

Not only does the Bear Spirit have higher health and stronger defense than Ironbeard, and can be resummoned after death, it also has a feature that makes many players drool – it comes with 6 universal item slots!
Furthermore, the Bear Spirit's inventory also functions as an equipment slot. Some general-purpose equipment can be equipped and activated simply by placing it in the Bear Spirit's inventory, but there will also be some limitations.

Looking at the bear with its big, fat rear end, Cheng Tian was still wondering whether it was a Druid's bear from Blade & Soul 2, a Druid's bear from Diablo 2, or a Beastmaster's bear.

...It can't be the pet dream of every hunter—a druid that willingly transforms into a bear and gets caught, can it?

"Thanks."

After thanking the elf, Luo Meiling promptly shrank back, preparing to seize an enemy unit as her mech when the opportunity arose, as using her own body was still too dangerous.

However, this so-called long-range exchange of fire was more of a test. Both Cheng Tian's side and the other side still had considerable reserves of strength. The reason was simple: they were both prepared to unleash their firepower on the opposing leader.

With the barricades completely dismantled by the giant sword knights, there were no more obstacles between the two sides.

The light of torches, the shouts of battle, and the bugle calls of charge instantly filled the battlefield shrouded in night.

Riding the bull and charging forward, Cheng Tian looked at the approaching Silver Prince with some concern. It was nighttime, his mental buff was gone, and his Light and Shadow Serpent Form wasn't working at full strength. Moreover, after Arthur's repeated instructions, Cheng Tian was hesitant to use his indiscriminate Solar Fist.

After a good rest, Cheng Tian's mana bar was full, but the main target this time was Prince Allen himself. Cheng Tian felt that only the Blessed Blade would have enough damage to break through the iron lumps he was wearing.

However, just as Arthur, who was leading the charge, was about to engage Allen in close combat, Arthur noticed that Allen's gaze did not linger on him for more than half a second. Instead, it passed right past him and stared straight at his left rear, which was where the Orange Knight was located.

"Hand over my jewels!!!"

Prince Allen, who was staring intently at Cheng Tian, ​​almost roared out these words.

The next second, a blinding light, so intense that Arthur thought Cheng Tian had broken the agreement and vanished indiscriminately, burst forth simultaneously from Cheng Tian's brow and Allen's crown.

But the light came and went quickly, and it was nowhere near as blinding as the Sun Fist. However, when the light dissipated, Arthur and his companions discovered that Prince Allen had vanished along with his horse.

"Orange Knight!?"

Arthur, hearing Percival's shouts behind him, turned around and found that Cheng Tian, ​​who was riding the bull, was also gone.

……

The familiar altar, the familiar overcast sky—the moment the light faded and his vision returned to normal, Cheng Tian knew where he was.

This is the separate altar space where their team challenged and defeated the sun god Kukulkan.

Besides Cheng Tian himself and the armored bull beneath him, there was also Prince Allen, riding a jet-black magical warhorse, looking at him with an almost uncontrollable greed.

You have entered the independent space known as the "Sun Altar".

[Orange, holding 5% of the Sun God Gem Fragments.]

[Allen, holding 10% of the Sun God Gem fragments.]

[Lakshir's promotion ceremony is underway—]

Only the victor may leave this place!

[Until death do us part!]

Cheng Tian let out a long breath and revealed his twin swords, one long and one short.

Upon seeing this, Allen was initially taken aback, then revealed an even more cruel expression and said...

"So it was you who killed my chief minister. I was hoping you'd spare your life if you handed over the jewels, but now—"

"Spare your mother! You're the next Louis XVI!!!"

Without hesitation, Cheng Tian violently interrupted Prince Allen's speech, and amidst the prince's suddenly distorted expression, he raised his twin swords and launched a death charge!
