Chapter 188 (Extra)

A brand new professional skill for a star official. Xia Mo blinked and looked at it for several seconds before clicking on the skill details.

[Kang Hai Xing Jiao: Consumes (Level + 10) * 5 Magic Points + 5 Stamina, dealing 5 times more damage to a single target, or 3 times the average damage to two or more targets (up to 5 targets). Chanting time is 2 seconds. After being interrupted, it cannot be used again within 30 minutes. The freezing time is 30 seconds.

(Note: To release the Kanghai Star Dragon, you need to accumulate at least 3 levels of Star Soul)

Star Soul? Xia Mo's eyes flickered as he looked at the last line.

Is it similar to stacking anger?

However, because of different professions, the names of these superimposed things are different.

Xia Mo had an idea in his mind. He placed his fingers on the words "Star Soul" and a secondary box popped up.

[Star Soul: When Star Official players release different skills, they will obtain different numbers of Star Soul fragments.

Normal attack: Unable to obtain Star Soul Fragments

Starquake: Obtain 0.5 layers of Star Soul Fragments

Star Extinction: Obtain 1 layer of Star Soul Fragment

Starlight: Obtain 1 layer of Star Soul Fragment

Starry Sky: Obtain 1.5 layers of Star Soul Fragments]

So that's how it is.

The higher the damage of the skill, the more Star Soul Fragments the Star Official player can obtain.

If you want to quickly accumulate to 3 layers, the fastest way in theory is to use [Starry Sky] twice in a row.

But, this is only in theory.

Don't forget that all skills have a cooldown time after release. [Starry Sky] normally needs to cool down for 8 seconds, but because she has learned the talent skill [Cooling Compression] (currently level 2), Starry Sky only needs to wait for 6.8 seconds.

6.8 seconds is a very long time. She can't just wait for the skill to cool down in order to accumulate Star Souls.

So the fastest way is to use skills in an alternating manner.

The first option is Starquake (+0.5) + Star Extinction (+1) + Starry Sky (+1.5)

The second option is Starquake (+0.5) + Starburst (+1) + Starry Sky (+1.5)

The third option is Star Extinction (+1) + Starburst (+1) + Starry Sky (+1.5)

And the fourth type, Starquake*3 (+1.5) + Starry Sky (+1.5)

All of the above permutations and combinations are possible. How to use them depends on how to choose them according to the circumstances during the battle.

After figuring out the new concept of Star Soul, Xia Mo shifted his focus back to explaining the Kang Hai Star Dragon itself.

Compared with Xingguan's other skills, [Kanghai Xingjiao] not only consumes a larger amount of magic, but also consumes 5 points of physical strength each time.

If Xia Mo hadn't known that he had an excellent physique and had obtained a permanent title of +20 points of physical strength by climbing the tower, he would have probably started cursing.

You should know that the player's total stamina is only 100 points, and walking and running will consume some of it. Therefore, the player's stamina is rarely full, and most of the time it is maintained at the level of 50-80.

The remaining stamina will be consumed at a rate determined by the player's own [Constitution].

The higher your [Constitution], the less energy you consume in daily activities, and vice versa.

Her basic physical fitness was already higher than that of ordinary players due to her rebirth, and she had also completed four physical strengthening tasks, which greatly improved her physical fitness. Therefore, her physical energy consumption was much lower than that of other players.

Others lose 8-10 points of stamina after playing for an hour, but she only loses 2-3 points.

The foresight and reasonable planning in the early stage played a huge role at this moment. She has more physical strength and lower consumption than others. She will have enough confidence to use [Kang Hai Xing Jiao] without having to worry about the negative impact of excessive physical consumption on the character.

Xia Mo raised his lips happily and closed the skill details page.

The treasure hunting mission is not over yet, and we need to continue searching upwards under the giant banyan tree.

As she became more skilled in climbing, Xia Mo obtained more and more treasure chests.

Different treasure chests contained different treasures. In addition to the professional skill scrolls she obtained at the beginning, she also opened rare enchantment materials, growth accessories, engineering drawings, and various professional equipment and life profession-specific materials that she could not use but were of high quality.

In a word, there is no item that is worthless. Even if she has no use for it, she can sell it at a business or auction house and get a lot of money back.

Xia Mo stuffed all the treasures into her backpack, and Jeff, who was forced to follow her, was heartbroken.

"...Grandma, you've already taken away so many treasures. Is it time to stop?"

Xia Mo heard the sound, but pretended not to hear it. He continued to climb up with his hands. During the climb, he touched two treasure chests and opened 100,000 and 50,000 gold coins respectively.

The treasure chest on the tree is smaller than the one in the mine, so the number of gold coins is much smaller, but no matter how small it is, it still starts at tens of thousands. Xia Mo didn't mind at all and put them all in his pocket.

This made Jeff feel even more distressed. If he didn't know that he couldn't beat her, he would have rushed up to her, grabbed her legs, and thrown her off the banyan tree.

Feeling the calculation in the air, Xia Mo lowered his eyes and looked at the person under him expressionlessly.

She said nothing, but it seemed as if she had said everything. Jeff was so frightened by her look that he trembled all over and immediately looked away, not daring to have any more random thoughts.

The banyan tree was huge, and Xia Mo spent more than four hours to basically search its lush and vast crown.

Her hands and feet felt a little sore, so she found a sturdy branch to sit on, drank a stamina potion, and rested on the spot.

Jeff, who had been following her, disappeared somewhere. Xia Mo glanced down and found that he was nowhere to be seen. So she clicked on the team list. He was still on the list and the system did not prompt "Distance too far". Xia Mo did not take it seriously and rested while looking at the scenery in the distance.

As a reborn person, Xia Mo has seen countless beautiful scenery in "The Gods", but at this moment she was still shocked by the scene before her.

Before it was made public, the time in the treasure map was fixed. It was afternoon when she came in, and it was still afternoon now.

On the other side of the giant banyan tree is a lake and land. The bright sunshine shines on the lake, causing ripples, and on the grass, making the green more vibrant.

A gust of wind blew, the grass leaves swayed, and ripples appeared on the lake. Movement and stillness blended into one, as beautiful as an oil painting that made people unable to take their eyes off.

Xia Mo felt that it was really unfair that this map was not among the top ten scenic maps of "Protoss" selected by players in the previous life.

Unnoticed, she turned on the camera function, referred to the composition and light theory that Mingyue Fusu often talked about in the group, slightly adjusted the angle, and click, a beautiful scenery that would shock everyone in the future was captured by her.

After resting, Xia Mo was about to stand up with the help of a branch, but he saw a wriggling body stretching out from the dense leaves above his head.

The green soft-bodied creature was about half the thickness of her arm, with equally green eyes and a plump body, like a cabbage worm that had swelled several times.

They hissed and crawled towards her.

But the next second, the locked target disappeared from the spot.

A large group of bloated cabbage caterpillars hovered in mid-air, their fat heads looking around as if searching for a target.

While they were confused, suddenly a skill hit their thick skin. The cabbage worms turned their heads and found that the target person had jumped onto them at some point, so they had to lock on and pounce on him again.

These bugs look disgusting, but the way they attack... is even more disgusting!

They spit to stick to their opponents, and then rely on the acidic substances secreted from under their bodies to corrode their targets.

Her equipment was extremely valuable, and Xia Mo would not allow it to be corroded. After a few nimble jumps, she not only successfully distanced herself from the group of cabbage worms, but also... found the culprit behind all this.

A cold light flashed, and Jeff, who was hiding behind a cluster of dense branches and leaves, felt a chill in his throat.

"This is the third time you've challenged my bottom line." Her voice was cold, just like her expression.

Jeff was so frightened that he dared not move. Only his lips moved, as if he had been shaking for hours in the freezing cold. He trembled and muttered, "...I was wrong...Please...don't kill me...!"

Xia Mo stared at him, feeling very unhappy.

To be honest, she really wanted to kill this guy right now.

But she couldn't.

Jeff is an NPC. Unless the player receives a relevant task, he must kill this NPC, otherwise he should not do it easily.

At the very least, her favorability would drop to negative, and at the worst... her reputation would most likely be wiped out completely.

The reputation points she had worked so hard to accumulate could not be deducted because of such a small matter.

So she could only pretend to scare him.

Fortunately, Jeff didn't know that she was pretending. Instead, he thought that he had framed her many times and would be silenced no matter what. Out of fear, before Xia Mo could ask, he took the initiative to tell her the reason why he summoned the cabbage worms.

"...I was afraid you'd take the last treasure chest atop the treetops, leaving me with nothing. That's why I thought of using Echinoderms to stop you..."

"I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! Please have mercy on me and let me live!"

So there is another one on top of the tree canopy?

Ignoring Jeff's numerous pleas for mercy, Xia Mo smiled to himself and released his weapon.

Jeff quickly touched his throat, looking like he had survived a disaster, but also like a hero who was regretting his loss.

"Go to the top of the tree by yourself. I won't climb that high with you."

System: [Jeff the Miser has left the team]

Oh, it seems that he has completely given up on stopping her. Xia Mo raised his eyebrows and his mood became better.

Without Jeff as a burden, she scrambled nimbly all the way to the top of the tree canopy.

As he said, there was indeed a small box on the top.

Xia Mo did not hesitate. He picked up the box with one hand and then leaned against the tree trunk and opened the lid expectantly.

There were no golden coins, nor any fascinating skill scrolls, only a small piece of map fragment lying quietly at the bottom.

My heart pounded.

The third fragment was found by her.
