The Death List Novel - Chapter 449
Chapter 449 Advancement Selection
“Legendary hunting progress?” Qin Lun asked curiously. After seeing the introduction of the progress, he came to a realization.
It turned out that his several battles with high-level and legendary creatures in Toril World had been recorded in this hunting schedule. Kieran had obtained the Hunter’s Heart earlier in Toril World. In fact, he had already begun his advancement at that time.
After that, he fought against the high-level assassin of the Santalin Society by the Naga Lake. Although Elder Edeline had finally killed the elven ranger, the Broken Star Sky still counted some of the results on him. After all, without the heavy damage from Qin Lun’s star black hole, that high-level assassin could have escaped.
After that, fighting the legendary creature Earth Tyrannosaurus in Iron Star Fort, killing high-grade Lich Hashid in the depths of the Undead Valley, and killing the Centaur of the Undead in the underground hall of the Uviron Library were all directly related to him. Therefore, some of the battle results were all attributed to him.
If it weren’t for the fact that the plot characters and other apostles had divided up these achievements, Qin Lun would have already completed his advancement mission.
“Cooperating with other people, you can also complete the Advancement Quest?” Qin Lun rubbed his nose thoughtfully and shook his head with a chuckle. Hunter was indeed an interesting profession. Single-handedly hunting counted as a hunter, cooperating with others in hunting, was also the choice of many hunters.
Knowing this, Qin Lun no longer paid attention and clicked on the jungle hunter’s icon on the death list. At this time, the advancement icon behind this career path had changed from gray to translucent, allowing you to view the career description.
Jungle Hunters had quite a few advancement branches. When Qin Lun chose this profession, he valued its extensive subsequent advancement. The most ordinary advancement profession of a forest hunter corresponded to an elven ranger.
If he chose to become an elven ranger, the Jungle Hunter’s weak melee ability would be greatly enhanced. The following career paths were pretty good as well, becoming a Ranger General at a higher level.
There was an essential gap between the Ranger General and the Fairy Ranger. If the Fairy Ranger was an enhanced version and a complete version of the Jungle Hunter, then the Ranger General would have several powerful professional talents on this basis.
For example, the most common profession ability of a ranger general was to create three to five illusions that possessed 70% of his combat power based on himself. These illusions could use all the abilities of the Ranger General, but the power of the skill was only 70% of the original.
This profession’s ability to attack and defend could not only prevent the enemy from distinguishing between real and fake, it could also suddenly explode, catching the enemy off guard. Apart from this most common profession ability, the Ranger General also had a Spirit Body Illusion skill.
Compared to the avatar illusion, the Spirit Body Illusion was able to form a Spirit Body Giant that was tens of meters tall with the Ranger General as its core. If the Ranger General had a high elemental affinity, such as fire elemental affinity, then the Spirit Giant would also be able to attach flames to it, turning it into a giant flame spirit.
Of course, this kind of ability that was similar to a legendary forbidden spell would also impose a great burden on the Ranger General. It was basically a trump card. Once it was used, the enemy would not die, and the Ranger General would perish.
Apart from the advancement branch of the Fairy Ranger, Qin Lun had also discovered the druid advancement branch here. This was probably due to the fact that the youth possessed several magical skills, especially the arrival of the Ninth Grade Wood Magic Tree Realm. With this skill as the core, there was indeed a sliver of possibility that he would advance to the elemental druid level.
In addition, there were also some branches that were not bad. For example, there was a profession called Phantom Sagittarius. This profession combined the stealth of a thief with the accuracy of a hunter’s shooting. The survivability and offensive ability were both very good, which made Qin Lun somewhat tempted.
From a purely professional point of view, Phantom Sagittarius was at the pinnacle of Second Grade combat power. However, in the end, Qin Lun did not choose this profession, because when this profession reached a higher level, it would instead become a mediocre profession. In high-level professions, it lacked the high-level skill to make a sound.
The subsequent profession of the Fairy Ranger profession was explosive, but there was no substantial improvement in the Second Stage. The Phantom Sagittarius was at the peak of Second Grade, but his subsequent advancement was a bit weak. Qin Lun didn’t like either option very much.
Changing professions at the beginner level was different from changing professions at the second level. A beginner profession was only the foundation of a profession. Even if he discovered that this profession was not suitable for him, he could still learn more of the abilities he liked at the accumulation stage, and then change professions when he advanced to the second level.
However, once he advanced to Second Grade, his skill system would be basically perfect. It wasn’t that he couldn’t change his combat profession, but that he couldn’t afford to change it.
Imagine that a Second Grade apostle’s mission was already quite difficult. He needed to accumulate skills and equipment from other professions while completing the mission, instead of continuing to upgrade himself. Wasn’t this equivalent to courting death?
After looking at the advancement branch route, Qin Lun began to observe the progress of the legendary hunt, and the hidden advancement path that followed. The so-called hidden advancement path did not mean that hidden professions were stronger than other advancement branches, but that the advancement of these professions had special requirements, and very few apostles met the promotion requirements.
After the Legendary Hunt was completed, Shattered Star gave him two notifications based on Qin Lun’s current equipment skills. The first hidden profession was called the Ability Addict. After reading the introduction carefully, Qin Lun discovered that this profession was a mutation of the Ability Addict.
The addict is based on his current “dissected blood”. The martial system is similar to the “six natures” of the mindful. It has the characteristics of strengthening, releasing, manipulating, changing, and manifesting. It also has the special effect of devouring, which is equivalent to the special attribute system.
This profession should be the Laws that the Broken Star System obtained from the Hunter World. Not only was it extremely powerful in the Second Order, even if it advanced to the Advanced Order, it would still be extremely mysterious.
Qin Lun, who had experienced the world of hunters, couldn’t help but be tempted. He had witnessed the battle prowess of the Phantom Brigade’s experts. Even if they had turned into a hand-run Parknolda, it was not something he could handle now.
Almost every member of the Phantom Brigade possessed the combat prowess of a high-ranked apostle. One could imagine that there was no shortage of high-ranked and legendary experts in the Hunter World.
The martial system of spiritual power could sustain Qin Lun until he reached the peak of the Advanced Apostle Realm. As for legends and even demigod professions, this was too far away for him. Those experts would probably no longer be able to rely on the help of the shattered starry sky and could only rely on themselves to break through.
The Ability Addict was indeed very powerful, but if he chose this profession, Qin Lun’s current skill set would once again appear incomplete.
[Blood of Dissection] had helped him a lot in previous battles. For example, in the Hunter’s World, he relied on [Blood of Dissection] to dismantle Kubie’s Discovery Building and break down the surveillance of the brigade.
In Toril World, it was also because of the devouring ability of [Blood of Dissection] that he instantly broke through Lich Hashid’s defense and forcefully took him away from the Undead Valley.
However, for him, [Blood of Dissection] was only a tactical ability, and he had yet to form a skill system.
When he chose the Adept profession, he had no choice but to marginalize the entire hunting martial skill of summoned beasts combined with long-range attacks. This included the legendary firearm that Qin Lun had put in a lot of effort to use, Light and Dark Burial.
Although the Eye of the Clock and the Descent of the Tree Realm were still useful, the entire skill system would be shattered. He needed to spend a lot of time and energy to gather the skills and equipment of the Adept Martial Arts System.
‘”Adept” Qin Lun frowned slightly and his eyes flickered. In the end, he shifted his gaze to the icon of another hidden profession.
The second hidden profession surprised Qin Lun a little. He had seen this profession before when he changed his profession. This was one of the high-level forms of forest hunters, but he had partly escaped from the elven bloodline system. This was the Demon Hunter.
“From the beginner level to the higher level?” Qin Lun hesitated and continued to look at the introduction.
“Oh, so it’s not!” After reading the description of the hidden profession, Qin Lun let out a long breath. This Abyss Devil Hunter was indeed related to that high-level Abyss Devil Hunter, but it was only the low-level form of that high-level profession.
A high rank Abyss Devil Hunter was a combination of the two bloodlines of an Abyss Devil and an Elf. Not only did he possess all the combat talent of an Elf Ranger, he also possessed the talent of an Abyss Devil Race. He was a combat profession that had almost reached the peak of both magic and martial skills.
In fact, as long as a high rank Abyss Devil Hunter continued to purify his two bloodlines and fused them perfectly, he would have a legendary body. Moreover, because of the powerful Demon’s blood, it was naturally easier to advance to Legend and Demigod than other professions.
The low rank Abyss Devil Hunter that Qin Lun could change professions with now, of course, wasn’t that powerful. However, this hidden profession could fully display the skill system of a jungle hunter, and to a large extent, it made up for the weakest physical attributes of the youth-strength, physique, and protection.
At the same time, what moved Qin Lun was that high-grade Abyss Devils were high-ranking creatures. Their blood souls possessed tremendous potential and could be compared to divine blood in a certain sense. With this high rank Abyss Devil’s blood soul, the Abyss Devil Hunter would have a high magic resistance and would be exempt from most of the mind control skills.
This was definitely an irresistible temptation for Qin Lun, who had a great flaw in his mental world.
Judging from the introduction of a low rank Abyss Devil Hunter, it was still unable to possess the powerful magical talent of a high rank Abyss Devil Hunter. It only possessed the ability to transform into an Abyss Devil. Moreover, the time it took to transform into an Abyss Devil Hunter was very short, and it still had to pay a certain price.
“I like this transformation ability!” A long-lost voice suddenly sounded in Qin Lun’s heart.
“Joey? So you agree to change to a low rank Abyss Devil Hunter?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he once again examined the introduction of the low rank Abyss Devil Hunter. He was extremely focused and would occasionally spend some broken crystals to purchase relevant professional information from the Broken Star System.
“Even low rank Abyss Devil Hunters need a large amount of Abyss Devil’s blood. If the blood doesn’t reach the Great Abyss Devil level, the subsequent purification of the bloodline will be extremely troublesome.” Qin Lun frowned, his expression a little hesitant.
The Abyss Devil’s Blood mentioned in the job description was not a simple item. It was not something a single Abyss Devil could cut his finger with. This type of demonic blood must come from the same demon, and it must be the blood essence of the heart core taken out at the same time.
In other words, a healthy Abyss Devil would have to spend most of his heart core blood essence if he wanted to reach the level of a low rank Abyss Devil Hunter. Although the Abyss Devil’s constitution was abnormal, there was only one consequence of losing a large amount of heart core blood essence, and that was death!
