In his memory, the calculation of Earth Splitter's EXP was very scientific, which meant that although Roddy had completed the last hit on the dragon, it did not mean that he could get the theoretical "full" EXP.
In order to prevent "smurfs" from farming monsters to level up, the reward would be adjusted and reduced when the level difference between the two sides was too large. This resulted in Roddy only getting 2.37 million EXP instead of the full 14.98 million EXP.
Of course, this was enough to be called an "astronomical figure."
Roddy counted the EXP needed to level up, then pressed the "Level Up" button twice in a row.
Two golden lights flashed, and Roddy's [Character Attribute Panel] showed that his "Witcher" level had risen from Level 6 to Level 8.
The skill bar lit up, and Roddy opened it to take a look and found that there were two more skills, "Fury" and "Placate Magic Pet."
At this time, he had already arrived at his own mansion. After stepping into the room, Roddy took off the slightly broken leather armor on his body and put it on the equipment rack. He washed his face in the bathroom, then took off his linen shirt, walked into the bedroom bare-chested, and sat on the bed.
Slightly relieved, he reached out to open the interface and continued to read the skill description:
"Fury"
Consumes 30 Energy
Use: Temporarily increases the attack speed of the Magic Pet by 30% for 10 seconds. Cooldown time: 3 minutes.
Side effect: Continuous use will cause the effect to weaken and the pet's physical strength to decrease.
This was obviously a "burst" type of skill, which had a miraculous effect in a fast-paced battle. However, Roddy wondered how fast the Nokia's already extremely slow attack speed could be after the activation of "Fury" …
Although he did not expect the Magic Pet to provide much damage output, Roddy was no longer completely indifferent to the role of pets as before. At least in the last few battles, his two pets had made great contributions.
Looking down, the skill description of the latter was relatively simple:
Placate Magic Pet
Consumes 15 Energy
Use: Instantly reduces the cooldown time of all magic pet skills by 50%. Cooldown time: 30 minutes.
This was similar to the Ice Elementalist's' Rapid Cooldown ', but it was more targeted. Although it was not very useful against Nokia's' Tortoise Shield ', which had a longer cooldown, Roddy firmly believed in the principle of' There are no useless skills, only useless players'. There must be some magical beasts that were very suitable for this skill.
He locked the skill pane and raised his hand to level up Reverse Strike, Concealment, and Lynx's Agility. He then clicked on [Advanced Talent Pane].
After adding points to "Energetic" in the [Strengthening] department, the following talents didn't benefit much, so he opened the [Beast Taming] department and took a closer look — and then put two talent points on "Magic Pet Attribute Enhancement". The effect was: Magic Pet's overall attributes increased by 4%.
Passive talents often didn't seem to pay much, but their value could only be realized later on. Roddy clicked the Confirm button, but just as he was about to flip to other pages, he felt a sudden pain in his head.
Frowning, Roddy reached out and rubbed his temples — this pain had occurred many times, and he had gradually come to a conclusion: Every time he used the Magic Pet's skills, there would be a stabbing pain in his head like an electric shock, and when the skill was released, the pain would disappear.
He originally thought it was just a coincidence, but later he realized that it was "inevitable." He couldn't help but think of the "witcher" Ducal's notes: He himself had symptoms of headaches, and it seemed that he had gone to Elson to ask Cadgar for the reason, but in the end, he didn't find out.
In this era, there were no CT machines, no hospitals, not even "quack doctors." When people were sick, they would either bear it or spend money to find the church to treat them with "theurgy." And now, his HP was at 100%, and there were no debuffs like "diseases" in the status bar. He really couldn't think of the cause of the headache.
The pain brought by the talent points was fleeting, and Roddy simply didn't think about it. He raised his hand and flipped to the "Basic Talent Bar," added "Constitution" to it, and closed the entire interface. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
His nerves that had been tense for a long time finally relaxed. Even though he had an extremely strong will, Roddy would eventually feel tired. He rubbed his hair, and just as he was about to get up, he found that the bedroom door had been gently pushed open.
Akasha, dressed in a white robe, walked in. At this time, she was not as reserved as she used to be. Her hair was simply tied behind her head, and she was full of the "home."
"Thirsty, right?"
She handed the cup of water in her hand to Roddy, "I was preparing lunch just now, and didn't hear your footsteps. I saw the leather armor hanging there, so I knew you were back."
Her eyes swept across Roddy's naked upper body, and Akasha's cheeks turned slightly red, but she didn't look away shyly. Instead, she unfolded the robe in her other hand, "Change into this first. Do you need me to wash the leather armor?"
"You … don't do everything yourself. These are things that a servant should do. No matter what, I'm the castellan. Although you're not the castellan's wife, but, ahem, in short, you can't treat yourself as a maid."
Roddy smelled the unique fragrance on Akasha's body, and his mood was indescribably relaxed. There was also a hint of teasing in his words.
"It's my duty to serve you."
Akasha's heartbeat sped up a little when she heard the words "castellan's wife". Although the two of them had an intimate relationship, the word "wife" obviously meant "married", which made her cheeks blush.
She pursed her lips and helped Roddy button his clothes. But when she smelled his scent, Akasha always felt a little reluctant to leave.
Seeing this, Roddy didn't act foolishly. He immediately opened his arms and gently hugged the little priest.
Their bodies were so close that they could even feel each other's heartbeat. The sweet feeling that neither of them had experienced before made them immersed in it.
"This feeling … is really good."
Roddy sighed softly. Before he released his arms, he found that Akasha suddenly tiptoed and gently kissed the side of his face.
"Then let's maintain this feeling forever, okay?"
*****
"Master, Miss Sally is back."
"Master …"
"Miss is back."
Butler John repeated the words several times before Duke, who was sitting in front of the armchair with his eyes closed, woke up.
"Hmm?"
Ankama opened his eyes and gradually regained his consciousness. Half a minute later, he waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Then what are you waiting for? Do I still have to stop my daughter outside the door? "
Butler John bowed his head, but he didn't tell him the truth: Sally had returned to the Ducal Palace more than an hour ago, but when she found that her father was sleeping, she quietly waited outside the door until lunchtime.
Although it was just such a small matter, John clearly felt the change in Sally.
And when Sally finally pushed the door open and walked into the room, even though she had made countless mental preparations, tears still welled up in her eyes.
Father, after all, is old.
"My daughter … is back."
Angmar held on to the armrest and wanted to get up, but Sally rushed over and hugged him gently.
Both father and daughter understood what it meant to meet at this time, but some words didn't need to be said clearly. Angmar smiled cheerfully and said, "Benjamin wrote me a letter complaining that you rushed all the way here at a frightening speed. I was worried for a long time."
"Father …"
Sally wanted to greet her father, but when she looked at her father who had aged a lot, she just opened her mouth and couldn't say a word.
"Why are you crying? My daughter doesn't like to cry. " Angmar patted her back, "I know what you are worried about. In fact, this is not something difficult to accept. Think about it, isn't father very good now?"
He let Sally sit on the chair next to him and looked at her carefully, "Short hair is also very beautiful. It's only been a year, but I feel that my daughter has grown up."
Sally looked at her father's wrinkled cheeks, and an indescribable feeling of helplessness rose in her heart. She didn't answer her father's words, but asked, "Is there really … no treatment?"
"Even the sun will set, my daughter, this is very normal." Angmar seemed to remember something and pointed to the letter on the table next to him, "Oh yes, not long after you left the 'Holy Cathedral', Rubens wrote me a few letters, asking you to return as soon as possible. It seems that he wants to study some scepter."
"Viper's kiss?"
