Sheyan began attempting to grasp the divine stone tightly, as he gradually channeled his MP into it. Gradually, a golden radiance sparkled out from the gaps between his fingers, as though it was plated onto his skin. Soon after, the radiance gushed out like water. At present, Sheyan's skin appeared as though it was covered with crystalline waves of light; mystical, bizarre and gorgeous.
According to Rogge and the rest, this should be a sign of divine power seeping out. Then came the crux of the matter. If the golden divine power seeped into one's body, one would receive Odin's favour. If the golden radiance dissipated into the air, it would represent the divine power that the vikings had spent an entire decade praying for, returning to Odin. Alright, to put it bluntly, it was a failure to acquire the ability.
Nevertheless, Sheyan's luck was rather good today. Observing that the golden radiance didn't show any signs of dissipating, he received a notification after it fully assimilated into his body.
[You have successfully acquired the evolvable ability: 'Muscle Explosion lvl 1']
[Evolvable ability: 'Muscle Explosion lvl 1', current evaluation: B]
[Description: The divine power of Odin surges within your muscles. Although your control over this power is relatively unfamiliar, you can already exhibit certain effects]
[Description: When dealing damage to an enemy, additional True Damage will be dealt to the enemy (the damage value will not be weakened by defensive abilities and rules. This effect has domain precedence). The True Damage value ranges from 5 to 15 points and is determined by your Attack Speed. The faster your Attack Speed, the smaller the value.]
[Description: True damage will inherit your explosive strike rate and generate additional explosive strike damage, but explosive strike will be separately calculated]
Following that, Reef and Brother Black took turns to go up the stage. Clutching the divine stone tightly, Reef also passed in one attempt. However, his' Muscle Explosion 'effect was different from Sheyan's. His description was:
[Your muscles have become incomparably tough due to Odin's divine power. Once an enemy deals damage to you, there will be a 50% chance of a counterattack. Counterattack damage will be classified as true damage, and the counterattack damage value will be half of Reef's actual damage. Moreover, the counterattack damage will not be less than 10 points, and will not exceed 30 points.]
On the other hand, Mogensha was rather unlucky. He wasted two chances, and finally received the favour of the great god Odin on his third attempt. The 'Muscle Explosion' effect he received was:
[After consecutively dealing damage to an enemy for three times, the enemy's agony and blood will excite Odin's divine power. The next damage dealt to the enemy will be inflicted with a 1 second stun effect (this effect has domain precedence)] However, this passive stun effect has a 10 seconds cooldown time.
In that case, the God's Stone: Odin's Surge still had two uses left. If he used it well, he would be able to earn another fortune. This was an unexpected gain that Sheyan had not expected.
After both parties, Sheyan and Mogensha, Mogensha, Mogensha. ., Sheyan, Mogensha, Mogensha, Mogensha, Mogensha, and Mogeniuses, Mogensha, Mogensha and Mogensha, Mogensha, Mogensha, Mogeniuses and and, Mogensha and Mogeniuses, Moes,,, Mou, Mogeniuses...
When Mogensha heard Sheyan's words, even Mogensha could sense that Sheyan was being two-faced. Mogensha couldn't bear to see the vikings renege on their debt. In spite of that, Sheyan merely smiled and shook his head. He told them through the party channel that they were thinking too much, and that he had other motives for inviting the three vikings. However, there were still some conjectures that weren't convenient for him to divulge.
Due to the imminent arrival of the tribe's sacred 'Day of the Bear's Fury', Rogge urged Sheyan to hasten through the night. It would only take roughly an hour to return to the pirate ship by carriage. Sheyan nodded in agreement.
Nevertheless, before leaving, Sheyan instructed several of his trusted pirate subordinates to stay behind with Joshamee. Those subordinates were all experts in battle. Then, he boarded the few large carriages and replaced them with experienced coachmen. Following that, Mogensha and the three vikings boarded the carriage and set off for the ship.
*****
At present, the night was pitch-black. Therefore, very few people would travel through the night. Fortunately, Port Royal was an important transit port, and the roads were meticulously maintained. Thus, the roads were relatively smooth.
The coachman was experienced in traveling through the night, and hung a bright lantern at the front of the carriage to illuminate the road ahead. Although the visibility was still affected, as long as the speed of the carriage was reduced, it wouldn't be too difficult to travel.
All of a sudden, under the dusky illumination of the lantern, the coachman noticed something obstructing the road ahead. When traveling in the night, one had to be wary of such obstructions. He hurriedly cursed before stopping the carriage. Then, he leapt down and carefully illuminated the obstructing object with his lantern.
Shockingly, a 2-3 square meter rectangular wooden plank was inserted diagonally into the road ahead! Unexpectedly, the wooden plank was painted with a red blob. The coachman stared blankly for a long while, before finally coming to a realization. Isn't this a magnified '6 of hearts'?
Following that, the coachman cursed at these people who had nothing better to do. Then, he approached the wooden plank, intending to kick it to the ground for him to pass through. However, to his horror, he discovered that the red painted on the wooden plank was several times more mournful. A bloody stench assaulted his nostrils. This' 6 of hearts' was actually painted with human blood!!
While this coachman was frantically screaming in fear and attempting to flee, an incomparably mournful whistling sound suddenly resounded through the air. Two poker cards crisscrossed in the air from the left and right, effortlessly slicing through his neck. After severing his arteries, they merrily sprayed out warm blood into the air.
After the two poker cards killed the coachman, they weren't stained with blood. They circled around like birds fluttering in the air. Then, two white fingers appeared and caught the two cards. With a gentle flip, the two cards were placed back into the bag.
At this time, the coachman clutched his neck and uttered a "Ge Ge" sound of despair. He slumped to the ground. The lantern in his hand also slid down and hit the stone floor with a clang. The oil from the lantern scattered in all directions and was then ignited by the flame. Suddenly, the flame grew brighter and brighter, illuminating everything.
From the darkness all around, men in ragged clothes with numb expressions and glazed eyes quietly walked out. Their bodies were filled with an indescribable stench, and the weapons in their hands were all kinds of hoes, scissors, pitchforks … … … ….
Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded from the side. It was as though a cardiac stimulant had been injected into those men. Their pupils shrunk to the size of a needle tip, as the whites of their eyes completely occupied their eye sockets. Their throats released coarse roars like wild beasts. Then, they pounced towards the two coachmen!
These guys were the lowest rung of the gypsy tribe! They lived numbly, and became the pitiful cannon fodder charging at the forefront of the battlefield.
"Damned bandits!" The three vikings were originally in a half-drunk state. Only after tearing apart the curtains of the carriage and witnessing the scene before them, did they sober up. When they realized that the coachman transporting goods behind them was under attack, they instantly pulled out their weapons and cursed furiously! However, they seemed to have forgotten that they had long transformed into pirates, and weren't much more noble than bandits …..
To the contestants, these goods were merely a few dozen guineas worth of goods. However, to the three vikings, these goods could at least allow their frail and sickly clansmen to survive through the winter by dozens! Their clansmen could very well be their relatives!
Hence, if anyone dared to touch these goods, it would be a case of 'You touch my goods, I'll touch your limbs'. They would definitely be beaten to death. For Rollo and his gang to accompany Harold on this expedition, they were all brave warriors of the tribe, and their battle prowess was needless to say. They raised their handy weapons, which were all heavy and violent weapons like two-handed hammers and axes. Then, they leapt down from the carriage.
The three viking burly warriors roared furiously, as they charged towards those gypsy slaves who were attempting to encroach on their goods. Simultaneously, they brandished their cumbersome weapons forcefully. The air was filled with the terrifying buzzing sounds of those gigantic weapons. Those gypsy slaves were utterly incapable of resisting, as blood spurted wildly from their faces. Their limbs were sent flying, and they were either gravely injured or dead.
The three of them slaughtered their way into the sea of humans, maintaining a distance of at least 5 metres between each other, so as to avoid accidentally injuring their comrades. One could tell how tyrannical their attacks were. Under such a degree of assault, one could feel an intense sensation – these vikings were born for such a battle formation!
Not only did Rollo and his gang of three vikings kill, they intentionally scattered the corpses of their slain comrades everywhere. Flesh and blood splattered everywhere, and their corpses weren't intact. It gave off the impression of several gigantic bulldozers charging in, as they swept through with unstoppable momentum, setting off a massive reign of terror.
Naturally, the appearance of the vikings had exceeded the expectations of the ambushers! In the face of these three killing machines, this kind of low-quality tactic that relied on numbers to win was completely restrained. Mogensha was instantly enlightened, as he spoke into the party channel.
"Boss, could it be that you already knew that those gypsies were ambushing us? That's why you insisted on bringing along those three vikings? " If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes to me. Your support is my greatest motivation. "
