This isn't a souls-like game at all.

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"The Cursed Frog is not a cursed creature..."

Alice pondered for a moment, then took out her dagger and nodded at him.

"That's fine. Combat is the best way to become familiar with power. However, the Cursed Frog is very dangerous. I don't recommend close combat."

"That's because you don't understand me."

Ye Yiyi took out the Blessing Eyes of Evil and placed them in Alice's hand.

"Except for the original stagnation curse, other variants of the curse can't kill me. You just need to take care of yourself and don't let the curse erode you."

Alice looked down at the eyes of the cursed frog in her hand, then looked at Ye Yiyi's back as he fiddled with the holy monument, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

With a ready-made target in front of him, Ye Yiyi also wanted to try out the hymns he had just learned.

What he learned from Big Beard were basically hymns that could be used even with ten points of faith.

But when adding spell slots and organizing hymn catalysts, he suddenly discovered a serious problem.

Even the Hymn Catalyst with the lowest faith requirement, the Hymn of Holy Blood, requires 15 points of faith to use.

Regardless of whether it is the Power or the Mage, his faith is only 10 points.

Even with the effect of [Priest's Crown] increasing Faith by 3 points, it still fails to reach the minimum requirement of 15 Faith.

"This is a bit embarrassing..."

In desperation, he had to add magic to the vacant spell slot.

But he soon thought of a trick.

In the forest filled with thin black mist, Alice crouched on a tree, looking down at Ye Yiyi under the tree with a strange expression.

A faint blue light fell from the sky, and dense weeds continued to grow on the ground.

Ye Yiyi held a halberd with a pale blue blade that looked like wings. At this moment, he rotated his body greatly, cutting off the weeds around him.

"Quack!"

Five or six curse frogs with wide eyes surrounding Ye Yiyi were beaten back by the spinning sword and halberd. Wounds appeared on their bodies and gray-red blood flowed out.

But in the "rain" of faint blue light, the wounds on the cursed frog gradually healed and its injuries were cured.

So Ye Yiyi continued to repeat his fighting skills, cutting the cursed frog and the weeds together again.

"Yi Yi, do you really hate curses so much?"

He looked at the scene where he put away his bladed halberd, then took out the Fire Feather Knight's greatsword and took a stance, swinging it forward heavily, slashing out a sweep of flames, burning the cursed frog until it cried out "Frog, frog".

Alice couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Healing and attacking at the same time, what is the purpose of doing this?

She couldn't think of any other possibility except the curse of hatred.

Finally, the blue light disappeared, and Ye Yiyi swung the sword in his hand violently, sweeping the flames to spread around, roasting the cursed frogs into charcoal.

He took out the Blue Devil's Claw and took a sip, then took out the silver cast iron throwing knife and skillfully peeled off the big eyes and internal organs, and then put them away with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad. These materials are not damaged and can still be used."

Then he checked the light screen again, and after seeing the soul echoes he had harvested and the prompts about mastering the corresponding combat skills, his expression became even more satisfied.

"Anyway, as long as I can hit the enemy in battle, I can increase my combat proficiency. So, I buff the enemy and use them as my punching bags. This operation is reasonable, right?"

This is a simple attempt. By combining [Surge Growth] with combat skills and attacking multiple enemies at once, you can increase your proficiency at an extremely fast speed.

If there are 7 curse frogs and one combat skill can hit all of them, the proficiency will increase by 7 times, which is exactly the same as the number of curse frogs.

Such a mechanism allows Ye Yiyi to gain proficiency with extremely high efficiency.

I kept grinding until evening, running back and forth between the holy monument and the forest seven or eight times before I mastered all the weapons and combat skills I could.

The combat skills he is currently proficient in include: [Scorching Stance] of the Fire Feather Knight Greatsword

Hunter Half-Stone Greatsword's [Spiked Sharp Rock]

Falling Fire Greatsword's [Flying Fire]

Spark Hammer's [Sparkling Sparks]

Winged Blade Halberd's [Leap Spinning Slash]

[Frenzy] of sticks

Healing Short Thorn's [Broken Steps]

Curled Horn Hammer's [Ram Charge]

Blood Axe's [Inspiring War Cry]

Flame-Shaped Two-Handed Greatsword's [Duel Stance]

Smoked Iron Shield Wall's [Shield Charge]

Eagle Wing Knight Shield's [Solid Shield Guard]

Eagle Claw Knight Kite Shield's [Storm Return]

Copper Flower Emblem Round Shield's [Defense Counterattack]

Silver Knight Sword's [Silver Slash]

Fire Sparrow's Pickaxe's Rock Crushing Beak

"If I hadn't practiced it myself, I wouldn't have known I had mastered so many combat skills."

Looking at the long list of "Mastered Combat Skills" on his personal panel, Ye Yiyi's satisfaction as a collector was beyond words.

Even so, he only used up all the combat skills that could be brushed. There were still a bunch of weapons in his four-dimensional chrysanthemum that did not meet the usage requirements and therefore could not be used to brush combat skills.

For example, the knife, flail, spear, etc. of the skill style.

In addition to these, he also had an unexpected gain in the depths of the forest.

A pair of paired greatswords, and the body of a Fire Crown Knight, eroded by a curse but still with bones remaining.

"A pair of greatswords. Could these be the weapons of Master Lupel of the Fire Crown Knight?"

With the light of the holy monument, Ye Yiyi looked thoughtfully at the two rusty swords in front of him.

[Wind and Fire Master Paired Greatswords]

Chapter 202 [Tower of Cursed Death] and [Oath of Mission]

[Wind and Fire Master Paired Greatswords]

Item Description: A pair of silver greatswords wielded by the Knight Master "Lupelle".

One of a pair of weapons.

The Master's weapons have been tempered by the wind of the eagle and the fire of the firebird.

Therefore, it has a bit of spirituality and can bring protection.

It is said that this is why the Knight Master gave the sword to his friend.

Help them complete their mission.

Exclusive combat skill: Wind Whirl Fire Dance

Spinning and wielding the two great swords of wind and fire,

Harness the fire of the firebird with the spirit of the storm,

Can summon a storm of protection with burning flames,

You can take advantage of the situation to perform a charge attack and a heavy attack.

"It is indeed Lupel's paired weapon. Using the Storm Spirit to control the Fire Sparrow's fire is indeed extraordinary."

After reading the item description, Ye Yiyi couldn't help but sigh.

Knight Master Lupel can be considered a top figure among all the knights.

Not only is he an expert archer, he is also adept at wielding two swords, and can unleash the power of wind and fire at the same time.

Such a brave knight would be a well-known figure wherever he goes.

It's a pity that his final fate is so sad.

Without even figuring out the situation, he died alive in bed, and was corroded by the stagnant evil spirit and turned into a pile of dust.

"And this weapon has spirituality?"

Ye Yiyi pondered in his heart, "Could this be the reason why the Wind and Fire Swords have five attribute corrections?"

The usage requirements only include two strength skills, but all of them are corrected.

Although the bonus is not high, it has all the necessary corrections.

"It's really amazing... I'll show it to the blacksmith later and see what he thinks of it."

Then he turned his head and looked at the corpse with bones remaining on the side and a faint cursed black mist flowing on the surface.

If nothing unexpected happens, this is the friend that Rupel gave the sword to.

The item description says that the paired greatswords can bring protection and help them complete their mission.

So the question is, what is asylum? What is mission?

"Does sheltering mean leaving the body intact?"

He pinched his chin, then reached out and pulled off the cursed armor.

Armor and clothing covered with a faint black mist are extremely dangerous items.

Converted to Earth, it is equivalent to heavily polluted nuclear waste.

If you take into account the spread and targeting of the curse, even nuclear waste cannot compare to it.

"This armor is well preserved."

He pondered in his mind, gathered the dismantled armor together and threw it aside, leaving only the skeleton.

During the dismantling process, he found two bundled sheepskin scrolls, a familiar-looking metal stick, and a strange-looking... hood?

"What the hell is this?"

Ye Yiyi had a confused expression on his face as he unfolded the folded leather. Two gray-green hoods with large empty sacs on top appeared before him.

"Could this thing be...?"

He was slightly surprised.

……

Alice was holding a dagger in her hand, a slender long knife with a sheath hanging on her waist, and carrying a bag on her back, as she walked from the direction of the catacombs.

When she approached the holy monument, she looked at it intently, but her expression was inexplicably stunned.

Behind the holy monument, a gray-green curse frog was sitting there quietly.

The eye sacs that housed the two giant artificial eyes were particularly conspicuous under the light of the holy monument.

"Cursed Frog? How did it get into the light curtain of the holy monument?"

Also, where did he go?

Alice was a little confused and couldn't help but slow down her pace and silence unnecessary sounds.

She walked over quietly and drew the single-edged long sword with a slight curve from her waist.

Standing beside the holy monument, the girl finally saw the full appearance of the cursed frog.

Under the curse frog's head, there is actually a human body?
