Chapter 128 Choice and Goal
Gordon is not a very smart person, but he is not stupid either.
Seeing that the village elder's collection was rich enough, he directly ignored the queen-level and king-level protection stones, and only chose among the dragon protection stones and hero-level protection stones.
Even so, there are still more than a dozen choices.
After the village chief’s introduction, Gordon thought carefully and discussed with Ancil for a while, and then he first eliminated most of the protective stones.
Most of these protective stones are based on attribute resistance, such as those with [large] fire resistance.
As long as he wears it, even if he wears equipment with negative fire resistance like the refined ore suit, the overall fire resistance can be increased to a level equivalent to his current strange bird suit. The effect is quite amazing. .
However, the limitations of this type of protective stone are relatively large, and it will be useless to change opponents with other attributes. Now he certainly cannot waste this unique opportunity on this type of attribute resistance.
There are four final stone protection stones to be selected, two hero protection stones and two dragon protection stones.
The No. 1 Hero Stone Guard has two effects: "Elf's Protection" and "Evasion Distance", and the effect levels are both very high. The former can withstand nearly 50% of the damage for him with a certain probability. The latter will allow him to move further when rolling and flying, which are both life-saving "magic skills".
It is the ultimate enhanced version of the stone guard he is using at this time. It can be said to be a high-grade snake oil
The effects of the second hero's stone guard are "concentration" and "craftsman", and the effect level is also very high. The former can charge Gordon's energy. When cutting, the charging speed is increased by about 20%, and the latter increases the sharpness of the weapon, both of which are very practical.
If the protective stone in front is tiger balm, then this protective stone is truly suitable for a great sword user like him.
The remaining two are dragon protection stones with a slightly lower level.
The effect of Dragon Stone Guard No. 3 is "ear plug". Although it only has one effect, the skill level is not low and can help Gordon ignore the roars of almost all monsters.
It may not sound that powerful, but you must know that the monster will not move when it roars, and it often lasts for several seconds. If you can ignore the roar, you can almost guarantee a charged slash.
The effects of the No. 4 Dragon's Stone Guard are "attack" and "base power". The former is simple and crude, and can slightly increase the power, making the hunter's attack more powerful. The latter is a bit more subtle. It can make the hunter In the case of serious injuries, he can explode with far greater strength than usual.
Attack! Stronger attack! Even if you are about to die, you still have to attack! That's probably what it means.
There is no doubt that these four protective stones are of the highest quality. Gordon would happily burst out of his nose whenever he dug any one of them.
But now, he must choose the one that suits him best. At this point, the only one who can make the decision is himself.
After repeated thinking, Gordon first ruled out No. 1 and No. 4.
In terms of versatility, No. 1 can be said to be the strongest of these protective stones and the most valuable. However, in Gordon's view, this thing is too conservative and does not conform to his fighting habits.
No. 4 is the other extreme. Isn’t this too radical? Especially that "base force", which also has another name "fire field force", which can only be activated when seriously injured. It almost has the word "desperate" carved on the forehead.
Which lunatic hunter would still stand still and let the monster beat him to the point of death? (?)
I can’t have it, I can’t have it.
As for the remaining No. 2 and No. 3 protective stones, to be honest, they were both suitable for him. After some comparison, Gordon naturally chose the No. 2 protective stone with a higher level.
In fact, it’s not just because of the level. The ear plug skill of No. 3 Stone Guard is indeed good, but it can only be used when the monster roars.
The concentration skill of No. 2 Stone Guard is very helpful for charging and slashing, and the craftsman skill that improves the sharpness of the weapon can be used throughout the entire process, perfectly matching his identity as a great sword user.
“I choose this protective stone.” Gordon pointed at the heroic protective stone that exuded a sky-blue luster and couldn’t help but smile.
The Tulong village chief lamented, "This is one of the best protective stones in our collection. Little brother Gordon, you have really good vision."
Gordon was originally worried that the village chief would be reluctant to part with him, but he didn't expect that after the latter sighed, he laughed boldly:
"Ha! This is not bad! The protective stone should be worn on the hunter to accompany him in the battle. The hunting ground is the place, little brother Gordon, you are a capable hunter, it is better to follow you than to put it in our safe!"
As he said that, the Tulong village chief stretched out his big hand and grabbed it! He picked up the protective stone and placed it in Gordon's hand.
“Now, it’s yours!”
Gordon clenched the guard stone tightly and couldn’t help but smile.
"Then I'll accept it without mercy!"
Even though it was still late at night, Gordon and Ancil, who returned to the rental house, were completely sleepless.
The only pork chop that was still yawning was mercilessly taken out of the cat nest made of soft cushions by Gordon.
"It's almost time to restart the journey." Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Gordon said without warning.
Anhil did not look surprised at all. He sat down on a seat beside him and said with a smile: "Indeed, the volcano has happened, and the gains in stone protection have far exceeded expectations. Continue There is no need to stay.
Besides, I've almost had enough of the climate in the volcanic zone. Pork Chops thinks so too, right? "
"Meow? "Pork Chop was suddenly mentioned, and his face was filled with question marks.
Gordon glanced at Pork Chop and couldn't help laughing.
A few months ago, Pork Chop's coat color returned It is mainly milky white, with golden hair on the tip of its nose and abdomen. It is clean and beautiful.
Looking at it now, its body is covered with black ash, and the hair in many parts has signs of being permed and scorched. .
Looking down at himself with messy hair, Piglet said angrily: "My hair will grow back after I leave the volcano!"
"Hahaha, I will, I will." Gordon rubbed Piglet He scratched his head and said, "Okay, joking aside, where should we go next? Do you have any ideas?"
Anhil leaned back in his chair, "I don't care, it depends on your opinion."
Pork Chop also licked his paws and said: "Meow me too, if possible, don't It’s best to go to a place that’s too hot, meow!”
It really hopes that it can come back in vain.
Seeing that Pork Chop and Ancil really didn't have any plans, Gordon touched his nose in embarrassment.
He actually has some ideas, but this matter is more personal. If he talks about it at this time, it feels like he has kidnapped his companions morally.
Anhil noticed his confusion, glanced at him sideways, and said, "If I guessed correctly, you want to go back to Kokot Village and trouble the male fire dragon, right?"
"Haha, you saw through it." Gordon smiled dryly.
It’s not surprising that Ancil could guess this. After all, he already knew that he was looking forward to fighting the Fire Dragon again.
"If you want to go, let's go together. No matter how big the problem is, it's worth worrying about." Anhil leaned back on the chair and crossed his arms. "But how can we apply for the mission? We can also sneak away like the general Kamaki did at that time. "
Gordon also realized that he was being pretentious, and after laughing twice, he said: "That's not necessary, I can already apply for promotion to the four-star task."
