Seeing his French Open spirit stone amount reduced to double digits, Ren Suo felt a little painful.
Fortunately, it was already the beginning of the month, and last month's salary and spiritual vision subsidy had been paid, otherwise Ren Suo would have no spiritual stones to squander.
It was his status as a researcher with a lot of points and the title of academy faculty member that allowed him to directly spend a month's income from spirit stones to purchase a second-level spell.
The spirit stone subsidies of other people may not be as much as Ren Suo, but there is no need for other people to learn so many spells. After all, it takes time to cultivate cyclones, and it takes even more time to cultivate spells. Unless one's cultivation has stagnated or it is required for work, not many cultivators will put too much effort into spells.
The reason is simple: although low-turn spells are very practical, wouldn't it be great to learn stronger spells when your cultivation level is high? Even if you don't have the right high-turn spells, you can improve your learning efficiency by practicing low-turn spells. Why spend so much time learning spells when your cultivation level is not high?
A warm current came from the magic net instrument, constantly stimulating Ren Suo's neurons, and soon the detailed information of a new spell emerged in his mind.
Finger lock.
As an advanced version of the "Lock" spell, "Finger Lock" can not only suppress most ordinary people and general awakeners, but also has the characteristic of "disturbing aura", which can directly penetrate the defensive spells composed of aura. If Ren Suo is promoted to the third level, he can also learn a stronger advanced version.
The "Lock System" is an offensive spell system that all civil servants and monks must learn. Even for non-combatants, it is the only offensive spell system that can be learned. If ordinary people can learn stronger spells, the officials are also afraid of chaos.
The lock system endows the monks with a certain combat capability, but at the same time does not have any lethality, which is just right.
However, as a unique attack spell, the price of "Finger Lock" is also extremely high, and it instantly cleared out Ren Suo's spiritual vision subsidy for last month.
Ren Suo hadn't originally planned to learn it, but because the game required it, he had no choice but to pay for it in real life.
But just as he put on his hat and started practicing, a phone call came in:
"If you want to learn offensive spells, why do you want to come to the countermeasures bureau? Why spend spirit stones to learn "Finger Lock"? In the bureau, this is a free benefit."
Ren Suo had just bought the spell for a few minutes when Yu Kuangtu found out about it, and Ren Suo was not surprised.
The original function of the magic network instrument is to register the spell learning status of all monks, and synchronize it to the national database in real time. The countermeasures bureau closest to the monks will even receive a direct notification to know which monk has learned which spell.
In a sense, magic is similar to controlled drugs and firearms. If used well, it can bring huge profits.
But if you learn magic from the legal network of the national structure, you must naturally abide by the national laws. If you want to make a profit after learning magic, you have to work in the relevant departments operated by the state, and the countermeasures system will uniformly certify and allocate it.
If some foolish person learns half of the skills and uses them indiscriminately, it would be a small matter for him to get himself killed, but it would be a big matter for him to ruin the reputation of the monks.
The countermeasure system can know the spell status of all monks. First, it makes it much easier to catch people. Second, it can warn all monks. Third, if any dangerous situation occurs, catching people to help is a sure thing.
"If I go back to the Strategy Bureau, who will help you find good candidates in school? Who will help you take care of your girlfriend?" Ren Suo yawned. "Speaking of this, shouldn't you give me some extra subsidies? Spiritual stones would be fine."
"If I could distribute the spirit stones, I would definitely not give you a single cent." Yu Kuangtu said fiercely: "Have you finished your paper this month?"
“Ah…” Ren Suo scratched his head: “Let’s talk about it in a few days.”
"I knew it. Remember to submit two copies before the 25th." Yu Kuangtu said, "Also, your researcher level has been upgraded. Go check it out on the intranet. Tsk, I feel like I'm wasting state funds to help a parasite like you."
"Shouldn't Li Dan be the one to tell me these trivial matters?" Ren Suo said gloomily, "Your words are not pleasant to the ears."
Yu Kuangtu: "I just happened to get your notice, and I took a look and saw that you were shopping, so I was too lazy to bother Li Dan to make a trip. Do you think I'm as lazy as you and a tax thief?"
Ren Suo dug his ear hole and said, "Who is the one who eats pork elbow at home, hides the news of his promotion and refuses to go to work..."
Yu Kuangtu felt so angry when talking about this. He just wanted to stay for a few more days and go to work after Qin Lian went to school. He didn't expect that Ren Suo would end his vacation early. But unfortunately, he couldn't call him through the phone, and he couldn't stand on the moral high ground, so he couldn't even curse.
"Why did you learn Finger Lock?" Yu Kuangtu suddenly returned to the topic, "Gauze Dress and Pain Relief are normal working spells, but Finger Lock is completely unnecessary for you. You are so weak, it is not your turn to fight."
"Hmm? To protect myself." Ren Suo said, "To prevent myself from being beaten up by some lunatic who likes to play with fire... and in life, there will always be times when you have to fight."
If I want to beat you, I'll let you fight me! Yu Kuangtu suppressed his urge to complain and said unhappily, "Don't think about going alone when you encounter danger. Come to us for help. You are an important protected person. We can protect you if anything happens!"
"You can't learn too many spells. Just learn your own spells. How can you compare with us in combat?"
Of course, it was impossible to tell the real reason why he learned magic, so Ren Suo could only answer with a "hmm", and seeing that he had a good attitude, Yu Kuangtu's anger was reduced a lot.
He originally discovered that Ren Suo was learning "Finger Lock" and suspected that Ren Suo was in trouble, or that he became arrogant after being promoted to the second level and learned all kinds of spells, so he came to ask.
"Then it's alright, I'm hanging up now. Remember to write your paper."
"By the way, you have been promoted to the third level, but you haven't celebrated yet." Ren Suo suddenly said.
"What's there to celebrate about getting promoted?" Yu Kuangtu said calmly.
"You have to treat me to a meal, after all, I'm the first one to know about your promotion..."
"Eat shit, please!"
After hanging up the phone angrily, Yu Kuangtu was still angry. He drank a big gulp of ice water but still felt unhappy. He had to continue working with a depressed look on his face.
Next is a list of guest invitations provided by Tianlian College and the municipal government. Since it is a serious matter, it needs to be reviewed by the countermeasures system at the end.
And because of the other party's identity, the countermeasure system also needs to select a number of people who "will interest the other party" from the guests, compile them into information and send them over, so that the other party will not be left without knowing anyone.
"Hmm?" Yu Kuangtu saw that Ren Suo was also on the guest list. He turned his eyes slightly and clicked on Ren Suo's profile, scrolling down to look at Ren Suo's establishment
"Foreign language proficiency: College English Test Band 4 score of 426, the test time is the first semester of the junior year (highest test score and test time)"
"I think 425 points is enough to pass... That's flying close to the ground! And you have to pass in your junior year!"
Yu Kuangtu was amazed. He could basically tell that Ren Suo's English level was not that good, so he decisively marked Ren Suo's information with a red circle, which meant that he was included in the "important guest list".
"Well...his research topic happens to be studying Renesse, which is considered 'interesting'. I'm not trying to take revenge on him, I just want to see him make a fool of himself..."
"Negative emotions from Kuangtu, +233"
"You're just not treating me to a meal. How stingy."
Ren Suo muttered something, and then he spent half a day to finally master the "Finger Lock".
Both the "Lock Series" and the "Clothing Series" have no attribute affinity. Anyone can learn them without any obstacles, but no one can learn quickly unless they are extremely smart.
Ren Suo was naturally extremely intelligent. With the help of the "Hat of Seeking the Way and Correction" and his sister's bond ability "A Thousand Miles Away", it was not difficult for him to get started in half a day.
When the "Finger Lock" appeared on the equipment interface of the game console, Ren Suo immediately equipped the rebel with this ability and then entered "My Life Is Not Your Game".
Now, Ren Suo already knows the three difficulties of the second level:
① You must knock down an Undertaker within two minutes, otherwise you will not be able to defeat him if there are too many people.
② Do not kill the buryer, otherwise other enemies will come along, and they know each other's life and death status;
③The rebel and the Phantom Girl cannot be exposed.
Still use the Phantom Girl as bait to lure the first Buried One into the women's restroom, and then let the rebels launch a surprise attack.
It's still teleportation, but this time the attack method is "finger lock" with bare hands!
Ren Suo once tried to have the rebels attack with "Lock", but the Undertaker seemed to know a kind of spiritual defense spell, and the "Lock" could not penetrate the opponent's defense at all, so he had to learn this new spell "Finger Lock" to try to break the defense!
The Rebel launched a "Finger Lock" on the Undertaker's Q. The Undertaker's "Iron Armor" could not defend and he took full damage, and his body was imprisoned for 1.8 seconds!
A rapidly disappearing energy bar suddenly appeared above the Undertaker's head, representing 1.8 seconds of confinement!
At the same time, the rebel cannot move or attack for 1.8 seconds. This is based on the premise that the rebel continues to suppress the buryer. Once the rebel lets go, the buryer will immediately break free and counterattack.
Ren Suo clicked his tongue.
As expected, even if the Undertaker is not stronger than the Rebel, he is at least as strong as the Rebel, so the Rebel's "Finger Lock" cannot completely suppress the Undertaker.
However, Ren Suo had anticipated this. He held his breath, and when the 1.8 seconds were up, he immediately rotated the joystick to initiate the teleportation!
The rebel suddenly passed through the Undertaker like an arcing star, and when the Undertaker turned around to fight back, the rebel happened to run behind him and attack again!
Another 1.8 seconds!
The Undertaker turns around, and the Rebel teleports to fight again;
The Undertaker turns around, and the Rebel teleports to fight again;
The buried ones don’t turn around, the rebels teleport… huh?
This time the rebel was caught by the Undertaker from the front and was hit hard on the head with a punch. Wow, his death was as miserable as a burst watermelon.
"I didn't expect the Undertaker to still have a brain after being beaten like that." Ren Suo marveled.
However, the Buried One was actually scheming. It was really difficult to deal with since teleportation only took a blink of an eye. Ren Suo had no way of predicting the Buried One's movements and couldn't tell whether the Buried One would turn around or not this time.
Ren Suo pondered for a few minutes and thought that he could only find a way to provoke the anger of the Undertaker.
He thought about it and equipped the rebel with a "ventriloquist". He wrote down a sentence and set a time interval for infinite repetition.
Back to the battle for the women's restroom in the game, after the rebel used the teleportation finger lock to subdue the buryer for 1.8 seconds, Ren Suo immediately pressed the ventriloquism button, and a dialogue popped up above the rebel's head:
"(Ventriloquism) Are you angry?"
The red name of the Undertaker burned slightly. He was imprisoned and naturally could not speak, but judging from the situation, he seemed to understand. It seemed that there was no need for Ren Suo to repeat it in English.
The 1.8-second imprisonment ends, the Undertaker turns around, the Rebel teleports and attacks again, and asks again: "Are you angry?"
"Are you angry?"
"Are you angry?"
…
After going back and forth seven or eight times, the Buried became completely provoked by the Rebel's repetition and no longer remained calm, turning around every time.
The rebel's fists were also very powerful, and it seemed that he was attacking the Buried One's forehead every time. Finally, on the ninth time, when the rebel's red clothes became brighter, the Buried One was finally knocked unconscious by him!
The rebel knocked out the undertaker, and the maximum determination value permanently increased by 20%!
The rebel will fall into a state of serious injury and near death, and will fall into a coma after 155 seconds. After 20 seconds, the determination value will decrease at a rate of 1%/s!
"Being near death means you're not dead yet." Ren Suo breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked the rebel to use medical spells to heal himself.
The Phantom Girl then stuck her head out, looked at the rebel in red, and trotted over to hug him around the waist: "Thank you, big brother, for protecting me."
The maximum value of rebel determination is permanently increased by 5%.
“Hey…” Ren Suo propped up his chin: “Rebel, you are disgusting.”
