"Plop."
Two streaks of blood appeared, followed by two corpses clutching at their throats.
Søren was getting more and more familiar with the Throat Slit technique, and his success rate of triggering the Judgment of Death was getting higher and higher. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't have enough Strength to support it, Søren might even be able to execute Decapitation. In order to trigger Decapitation, one had to have more than 18 Strength, and it had to be combined with Ready Strength. Søren's full strength attack could only cut an inch into the neck bone, and he couldn't cut it off.
His figure was still very blurry, but he could already determine his location through the airflow, movement, and sound.
"Greater Invisibility [Level 4 Spell]: This spell's effect is similar to Invisibility, but it won't reveal itself after attacking. After casting the spell, the caster will enter a state of complete invisibility. After launching an attack, there is a chance that the caster's position will be exposed due to airflow, silhouette, and sound. The effect of Greater Invisibility will gradually weaken as the battle progresses, but it can still maintain the blurry effect of Invisibility. Even if the caster's position is detected by the enemy, the caster will still gain 4 points of blurry effect, and the enemy's hit rate will be reduced by 4 points. The effect lasts for 1 minute for every point of Spell Power. "
Greater Invisibility was undoubtedly a very powerful spell.
The only downside was that it couldn't last for long. Søren could only maintain it for about 10 minutes.
Even a legendary wizard could only maintain Greater Invisibility for about half an hour. However, Søren had the Metamagic Ability [Empower Spell]. In the future, when he leveled up and obtained a level 5 Spell Slot, Søren could use it to memorize Greater Invisibility. At that time, the duration of Greater Invisibility would be increased by 50%. Don't underestimate this 50% increase; it would increase the duration of Invisibility by 5 or 6 minutes.
Empower Spell was obviously more useful than other Metamagic Abilities in the early stages, or else he wouldn't have given up on them.
"Plop. Plop. Plop."
Søren entered and exited the battlefield as if there was no one there. Along with the faint flashes of his sword, the enemies couldn't see the trajectory of his attacks at all. Naturally, their chances of blocking were greatly reduced, and they could only rely on their own senses to avoid the attacks. At this time, the enemies with high basic stats could tell that those who could dodge Søren's attacks had decent stats and abilities. Unfortunately, they still couldn't turn the situation around because Søren's Dexterity was too much.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Although the battle had only lasted for 5 minutes, the enemies had finally recovered from their dazed state.
They had found a way!
That was to directly throw weapons and use crossbows to shoot. Although there was a possibility of accidentally injuring their own people, at least they wouldn't be so passive that they couldn't even figure out the enemy's exact location after fighting for so long.
"Sss"
The weapons were easily blocked by Soran, but he did not have such a high blocking ability for the crossbow bolts.
"Bang."
Søren was hit by three crossbow bolts. He took a step back, but he didn't suffer much damage because he had cast Stoneskin on the surface of his body. The effect of Stoneskin was much stronger. Although the crossbow bolts hit Søren, the damage was only in the single digits. They didn't penetrate his body and hurt his internal organs. The enemies in front of him were still reloading their crossbows, and some of them were waving their weapons around to prevent Søren from getting closer.
"Sure enough, battles need to be tested!"
Søren's expression was not very good. He raised his hand to remove the crossbow bolts from his body and murmured, "They actually forced me to activate my Legendary equipment! If it wasn't for Stoneskin, I'm afraid I would have been seriously injured. It seems that Greater Invisibility is very powerful, but it can't be used to crush the enemies. "
"Evade Sight!"
Søren activated the ability of Shadow Dancer and directly entered Stealth. His figure that had already been revealed completely disappeared once again.
Greater Invisibility could be stacked with Stealth, so Evade Sight was still useful!
"People? Where are they?! "
The eyes of the surviving pirates were full of panic. Some of them even screamed hysterically and attacked their surroundings.
The deck above Søren's head suddenly shook, and then a footprint appeared on the side of the wall. The next moment, there was a splash of blood. It wasn't until the chest was cut open that Søren's trace was revealed, along with a faint light of his sword. Søren had already rushed into the enemy's crowd. He waved his two swords and used the familiar Ground Swordsmanship. Seven or eight pirates in front of him screamed in pain. Their legs were either cut by the curved swords or directly cut off. In the narrow cabin, broken limbs and flesh were flying everywhere. The crazy pirates attacked randomly. Occasionally, someone was lucky enough to cut Søren, but the attack was blocked by Stoneskin.
More often than not, they cut their own companions!
"Demon! … Demon! … Ghost! … Run! … "
Finally, someone had a mental breakdown.
Perhaps they weren't afraid of facing a powerful enemy head-on, but now they didn't even know where the enemy was. After blood splashed everywhere and their companions fell one by one, some of these pirates finally began to have a mental breakdown. Some of them wanted to escape, but unfortunately, they couldn't escape the faint light of the swords behind them. Søren's expression was very cold. He didn't have the slightest sympathy for these pirates. He waved his two swords and left almost no survivors.
"Thirty-nine."
Søren shook his curved swords to get rid of the bloodstains on them. He murmured in a cold voice, "The spell lasts for three minutes. It seems that with the buff of Greater Invisibility, I have the ability to face a large group of enemies head-on. But this is also because there are no spellcasters among the pirates. Otherwise, a detection spell would be able to break my spell. "
"If there's a chance in the future, I should go to the desert. If I'm not mistaken, the Magic Detection Cloak should still be there, right? "
The Anti-Detection Cloak.
One of the legendary equipment that Rogues coveted the most. Its effect was almost equivalent to a Divine Artifact in their hands!
This legendary equipment had almost no other additional abilities. The only effect was that most detection spells wouldn't have any effect on the person wearing this legendary cloak. This was the only legendary equipment in the world. Søren had also participated in the battle for it. It could be said that it was more bloody and cruel than fighting for the Divine Artifact. Even at that time, Søren had the combat power close to the legendary level. In the end, he still couldn't snatch this legendary equipment.
In the end, it fell into the hands of an Assassin!
In order to fight for it, there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood! Søren almost died under the joint attack of two Assassins. In the past, there weren't so many casualties when fighting for the Divine Artifact, but for a legendary cloak, thousands of high-grade professions died. If no one found it, this legendary equipment should still be in an underground ruin in the desert. It was a more dangerous place. Søren might not be able to get through it now because some powerful demons were sealed there.
The number of enemies was getting smaller and smaller.
However, Søren couldn't help but frown because he hadn't seen any trace of the captain so far.
Was the pirate captain not here at all?
Just as Søren was about to turn the corner of the goods, suddenly a sword appeared from the side. Then a fiery red figure appeared and slashed at Søren's head with a sword.
Clang!
Søren's conditioned reflex took effect in an instant. He almost subconsciously raised Icingdeath to block the enemy's attack.
Clang!
Another parry sound was heard.
The enemy was also a master of dual-wielding. After Søren blocked the attack, another cold light stabbed at his waist. At the same time, he also waved his sword to block the enemy's sneak attack. In front of him was a tall woman with a gorgeous face. She was wearing gorgeous clothes and a captain's hat on her head. The opponent had been waiting for an opportunity to send her men to their deaths. Then, she was looking for Søren's position, trying to kill him with a sneak attack.
A woman?
Søren wasn't too surprised that the leader of the pirate ship was a woman because there were many women with Amazon blood here. His figure disappeared into the air again, and at the same time, he was looking for an opportunity to kill the opponent with one blow. It wasn't easy to train in dual-wielding. The woman in front of him was probably a fourth-grade profession. Whether it was her patience or her strategy, Søren felt that the opponent was a very dangerous enemy.
"Damn it! He disappeared again! "
The flame-haired gorgeous female pirate cursed in a low voice, and then waved her two swords to protect her left and right. Søren activated Evade Sight and entered Stealth. With the help of Advanced Invisibility, there was no trace of him at all. The enemy in front of him was very alert. The two weapons almost covered all the blind spots around her body. For a moment, Søren couldn't find a chance to attack. Just as he was about to go around to the side and attack, the woman in front of him did something unexpected.
The woman closed her eyes!
Yes.
She closed her eyes, then crossed her swords in front of her, and then took a deep breath. Her ears obviously trembled.
"Not good!"
In an instant, Søren had goosebumps all over his body. He didn't even think about it and rolled back to dodge.
Two swords flashed violently at the place where he stopped at, and the half-meter tall cargo box was completely cut open, leaving a three-inch mark on the ground. The gorgeous female pirate actually found his position and launched a fierce attack. She was still moving with her eyes closed, but the swords were continuously slashing at Søren's figure. The fierce swords raged out and stuck to his clothes like maggots. It was as if Invisibility had completely lost its effect at this moment.
— — "Blind Battle!"
What a powerful woman!
The opponent actually mastered the special ability [Blind Battle].
