Chapter 912: Characteristics
Su Xiao opened the skill list to look for the Beast Intuition skill, but after searching for a while, he did not find Beast Intuition, but instead found a skill with a similar name.
【Intuition Lv. 3 (Passive)】
Skill Effect (Passive): Forms a perception circle with a diameter of 14 meters and a radius of 7 meters. Perception strength 4+16 points (base strength + intelligence attribute × 20%). Any attack entering the perception circle, even if the subjective consciousness is not in an alert state, the body can automatically dodge.
Hint: This skill can be toggled on/off.
Hint: This skill cannot be activated together with basic perception. When using this skill, basic perception cannot be used.
Hint: When perception strength reaches 20 points, you can dodge at the same time the enemy's attack enters the perception circle.
Hint: When perception strength reaches 50 points, you can overload the perception, thereby achieving the effect of slowing down the enemy's attack speed.
Hint: When perception strength reaches 100 points, you can predict the enemy's attack within the perception circle. According to the opponent's attack start-up movement, you can insight into the enemy's attack direction 0.24 seconds in advance.
Hint: When perception strength reaches 200 points, you can predict the enemy's future attacks within the perception circle. The prediction time is 0.23–0.51 seconds in advance.
Hint: Current perception strength is 20 points.
Hint: This skill cannot be improved within the Reincarnation Paradise; it can only be improved through the Hunter's own training.
Su Xiao stood in place with his eyes closed. A perception circle had indeed appeared around him. This perception circle was circular, extending 7 meters in all directions. Not only that, but perception circles also spread above his head and below his feet, although the sensitivity to perceiving underground was relatively low.
The intuition ability was like an invisible sphere, wrapping Su Xiao inside. As long as he kept intuition activated, he didn't have to worry about being sneak-attacked.
Su Xiao tried to cut off the mental link with the perception circle. This was not closing the perception circle, but letting the perception circle take effect automatically. When he distributed his spirit within the perception circle, the consumption of spirit was not small.
Su Xiao's subjective perception of the surroundings disappeared. Just at this moment, a black cloth strip flew over, and he dodged to the side almost without thinking.
At the same time his body made the dodging movement, Su Xiao's eyes lit up. This was not him controlling his body to move, but the surrounding perception network capturing that something was attacking, and he moved subconsciously. This was like when a finger is pricked by a needle; regardless of subjective consciousness, the hand will retract due to the stinging pain.
Intuition is close to this principle. Intuition compresses Su Xiao's basic perception to a very high concentration and synchronizes this compressed perception with his body.
Except when in battle, Su Xiao would not put his energy on the intuition perception circle. When fighting an enemy, it was different. At that time, he would distribute part of his attention to the perception circle. Compared to the energy consumed by basic perception, this consumption was nothing.
After understanding the general effect of intuition, Su Xiao was very interested in the 'perception strength' in the intuition skill. This thing should be the keenness of perception. The higher the keenness, the earlier he would make dodging movements.
When perception strength reaches 20 points, he can dodge at the moment the attack enters the perception circle. When perception strength exceeds 50 points, he can make the attack show slow motion within his perception, thereby taking more appropriate countermeasures.
As for when perception strength reaches 100 points, this effect is somewhat exaggerated. Being able to predict the enemy's attack 0.24 seconds in advance means that as soon as the enemy's attack starts, Su Xiao has already predicted it.
The effect when perception strength reaches 200 points is even more unimaginable, reaching the level of predicting the future, although it can only predict for a split second.
Even if it is just for a split second, that is still predicting the future. From this point of view, intuition has great development prospects.
However, intuition cannot be improved within the Paradise, which somewhat limits the growth speed of intuition.
The reason why it cannot be improved within the Reincarnation Paradise is because the nature of intuition is special. It can be imagined that Su Xiao will activate intuition all day long in the future. At the same time as he activates intuition, he is actually training intuition and perception all the time. This skill will improve due to the length of time he activates it, and basic perception will also improve together.
Or rather, intuition does not need to be improved within the Reincarnation Paradise at all; that would only waste resources. In normal times, Su Xiao can improve intuition by himself, and in life-and-death battles, the improvement speed of intuition will double.
Sha accepted a soul crystal (medium) from Su Xiao, which meant she would help Su Xiao improve his intuition based on her own experience.
"What do I do next?"
Su Xiao was somewhat curious about how Sha would help him improve his intuition level. Continue to cover his eyes and dodge attacks? The effect of doing that should not be great.
"Take it."
Sha found a notebook from somewhere, and the cover of the notebook was already tattered.
Su Xiao caught the notebook. He didn't receive a hint, which meant this thing was not an item like a skill scroll. He opened the notebook. On the first page of the notebook, a twisted human figure was drawn, and a circle was drawn around the human figure, with lines of small characters marked inside the circle.
'The role of the perception circle is more for early warning. After dodging an attack, immediately use subjective consciousness to determine the enemy's position.'
'After the perception circle shrinks, the perception strength increases slightly, but the effect is not obvious.'
'Tried standing under a waterfall, but it didn't end up training Beast Intuition.'
'Being struck by lightning also couldn't train it, and I almost died.'
'Rainy days have some weakening effect on Beast Intuition. After getting used to it, the weakening disappears.'
'Be careful of attacks from underground. The perception circle is not very sensitive to the underground. Soil is different from air; it has a higher density.'
Su Xiao flipped through the notebook. On it was Sha's summary of Beast Intuition. And here in Su Xiao's case, Beast Intuition was named Intuition. This ability had nothing to do with beasts.
The notebook had dozens of pages, recording Sha's exploration and development of intuition, and there were also many imaginative ways to use it.
Undoubtedly, this thing was of great help in improving intuition, at least it could let Su Xiao quickly understand how to use intuition in actual combat. But Sha's drawing and writing were too damn ugly. Based on Su Xiao's judgment, some words needed to be guessed.
"You wrote this?"
"What about it?"
"Did you draw the second half with your feet?"
Su Xiao was trying hard to identify a line of small characters.
"No, I drew it with Beast Intuition."
Sha held a peanut between her two fingers, pinched the peanut shell with a crack, and the peanut inside floated up and flew into Sha's mouth.
"Intuition can affect physical objects?"
Su Xiao was somewhat puzzled. His intuition didn't have this ability.
"Mine can affect them, yours might not. After everyone masters Beast Intuition, they will have corresponding characteristics. My characteristic is persistence, which is like this."
Sha's eyes widened slightly, and an invisible fluctuation spread out.
After this wave of energy enveloped Su Xiao, he perceived that this was a form of perception solidified into substance; the surrounding air became viscous, as if he were trapped inside a swamp.
"What your characteristic is, is not yet known. When you develop intuition to a certain degree, you will naturally understand."
Sha chewed the peanut in her mouth and reached out to scratch her head.
"Overall, the final development direction of intuition will be influenced by personality, combat style, postnatal environment, and the like. That's about it. The trade is over."
Sha did not directly help Su Xiao improve Beast Intuition; she couldn't do that at all. She just gave Su Xiao the experience she had summarized personally, which was that notebook.
Su Xiao knew what the development direction of his intuition was. If his intuition reached Sha's level, he could predict the future by 0.23–0.51 seconds. This ability was of no help to him in exploring derived worlds, but it had many uses in battle.
This was a powerful ability that was somewhat perverted. It could be imagined that after Su Xiao awakened this ability, this ability would definitely have some restrictions, such as a cooldown time or high consumption.
However, for the point of predicting the future, no matter how high the consumption was, it was worth it. But for Su Xiao, whose perception strength was only 20 points, there was still a very, very long distance to reach 200 points. ===== CHAPTER 913 =====
