Chapter 20

After [Steadfast] merged, the effect was indeed sharp.

The fusion effect can also improve Luo Chenyu's survival ability when he doesn't have a shield.

Devouring, merging...

[Steel Shield] and [Steadfast] are indeed birds of a feather, their abilities are extremely BUG!

Luo Chenyu didn't linger too much on the [Steadfast] skill.

Instead, he turned his gaze to the big eater!

[Steel Shield]: Mutated active skill, damage-absorbing shield, absorbs up to 20 times the Constitution in damage, gains "Frenzy State" and "Taunt Aura" during the duration, and increases defense value by 50% for 10 seconds after the shield disappears.

Duration: 45S!

Cooldown: 10S!

Additional effect ①: After the shield disappears, it deals heavy strike and shattering damage to a large range of targets around. If Strength is greater than the target's 50% threshold, it will definitely cause a knockdown effect.

Additional effect ②: If there are teammates around, give teammates a damage-absorbing shield, the effect is 50% of your own shield, up to five teammates; if there are no teammates around, your own damage-absorbing shield effect is increased by 50%.

Additional effect ③: When the skill is activated, it causes a taunt effect on the target unit with the highest Strength in the range, reducing the target's defense by 50% for 8 seconds, and taunting for 1 second.

Frenzy State: All damage increased by 100%!

Taunt Aura: Range 50 meters, 5% chance to make the target only use normal attacks and force them to attack yourself, lasting 2 seconds, can interrupt skill casting.

Added Taunt Aura and Provoke control effects.

Looking at the skill introduction, I'm afraid the damage of the shield explosion will increase significantly again.

After all, [Steel Shield] devoured another attack skill, and no additional effects appeared elsewhere.

"Tsk tsk tsk... even more violent in the future!"

Just when Luo Chenyu was feeling complacent.

The black-silk young lady Xiao Yue had already taken him to another shop.

"Sir, we're here!"

After speaking, the black-silk young lady exited the shop just like she did in the skill shop.

Luo Chenyu sold the extra equipment in his hand and then purchased a set of F-rank equipment for a level 5 defensive warrior. After settlement, it cost 120,000 Xuanlong coins.

The attributes of this equipment are really not that great.

They were all forged by life-profession blacksmiths and provided as transitional equipment for novices.

The reason he spent a lot of money was to have more attributes when he went to fight 1st-transfer monsters tomorrow, which would provide more security.

"Thank you for leading the way, Miss. I hope that when I come to the Mount Huilong Trading House next time, you will still be the one to receive me!"

Luo Chenyu reached out his hand and showed a kind smile.

The black-silk young lady shook his hand gently and politely, and smiled sweetly, "That's not necessarily true. I'm only helping out here for two days. After the peak period is over, I will leave."

Luo Chenyu withdrew his hand and smiled, "My name is Luo Chenyu, see you next time if fate allows!"

"Fang Yue, see you if fate allows!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, without too many words, and parted ways.

Leaving the gate of the Mount Huilong Trading House.

Just as Luo Chenyu wanted to call a taxi, a familiar car drove up in front of him.

The driver from before poked his head out and called, "Sir, I'll take you back!"

"You've been waiting for me?"

Luo Chenyu didn't think much and got into the car directly.

After a moment of silence, the driver said, "You gave too much money, sir. I cannot accept rewards without merit. This is what I should do!"

"Classy!"

Luo Chenyu laughed, this driver is interesting.

After taking a nap, his sleepiness had disappeared, and he chatted with the driver along the way.

As the two became more familiar, the driver also began to tell some of his own stories.

In short.

It was that he envied those combat professionals, while life professionals like them, without a strong family background, find it difficult to improve their life profession rank.

Of course, one can also "enter the factory" and live that boring nine-to-five life.

Luo Chenyu didn't know how to answer.

Later, he could only become a listener, feeling the extraordinary life of ordinary people.

Halfway through the journey, on a quiet path.

Suddenly, accompanied by a strong light.

Bang!!!

The violent impact caused Luo Chenyu's body to lunge forward, his head slamming hard into the front, punching a big hole in the car.

Car accident?

Luo Chenyu shook his head, ignored the blood on his head, unbuckled his seatbelt, and got out of the car quickly.

He carried the unconscious driver out of the car.

At the same time.

A fireball brushed past Luo Chenyu and landed on the taxi.

Boom!!!

The fireball ignited the taxi, a loud explosion sounded, and fire splashed everywhere.

Fortunately, Luo Chenyu activated [Steel Shield] in time to ensure his and the driver's safety.

"Who are you, why are you attacking me!"

Luo Chenyu placed the driver aside unhurriedly and glared at the two professionals, one tall and one short, in the distance.

Being able to dispatch professionals within the city, they definitely weren't here for the driver, but for him.

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect you to forget so quickly!"

The tall professional suddenly burst into laughter, his face full of scars, looking particularly ferocious.

"Did you also forget that stick three days ago?"

"Three days ago?"

Luo Chenyu couldn't help but touch the back of his head.

"So, it was you who attacked me that day... Hehehe... So it's Wang Zijian's dog!"

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Luo Chenyu splashed dirty water on them first.

Anyway, he only had one enemy.

"Scar, stop talking nonsense, kill him!"

The short mage had no interest in talking nonsense with Luo Chenyu, raised his staff, and began to chant a skill.

Although some relationships had been handled by the higher-ups and the car accident scene had been set up, killing someone in the city had to be fast, accurate, and ruthless!

Luo Chenyu wouldn't sit and wait for death.

Insight Eye!

[???]

[Profession: Mage]

[Level: LV.20 (1st Transfer)]

[Strength: 2nd Rank]

A disdainful smile appeared on the corner of Luo Chenyu's mouth; it turned out to be a trash mage stuck in the 2nd-transfer trial.

Savage Charge!

Under the firelight, afterimages flickered, and Luo Chenyu's body flew towards the mage twenty meters away like a sharp arrow.
