"Brand, they're coming!"
However, the data quickly changed.
XP: 0 (Civilian Level 1: —, Level 2 Civilian Soldier, 6/10)
A warm current flowed through Sophie's limbs, he understood that he could get a 0.1 Energy Level strength correction and a 0.1 Energy Level constitution correction from the Militia profession, but these were irrelevant--
It must be known that a Swordsman can get a 0.2 Energy Level correction in strength and constitution from level one to level two, not to mention extra improvement in dexterity and perception, so in comparison, a Level 2 Civilian Soldier is just trash.
But these were not important.
What's important is, Sophie knew that a character would get three lifetime opportunities to choose a Talent Skill when promoting from level one to level two.
Yes, this is the first time.
Also the most fair one.
Here, it would also be the time to bring him rebirth.
He waited anxiously, one second could feel like a thousand years, but finally, the emblem symbolizing personal talent began to shine brightly on his attribute panel--
"Talent Skill, Unyielding." Sophie's eyes seemed to light up with a blazing fire, four long swords upon him, he merely symbolically raised the Stone Worker's Hammer, avoiding important parts like the head, heart, and abdomen.
Thump, thump, thump.
At least three swords simultaneously pierced the young man's body, he had only one sensation—damn, it really hurt!
But Sophie knew that with his Dead Hard ability, he wouldn't pass out due to blood loss for at least five minutes, and certainly not die from any physical strikes within half an hour.
Now he had only one chance, which was to escape with Roman, and then find the Life Potion in the remaining time.
He didn't know if such a thing existed in this world, but he could only believe it did.
Because he had no choice.
"Brand!" Roman's voice trembled in fear.
"Hold onto me, Roman."
"I..."
"Hold onto me!" The young man didn't have time to explain, his anger burst out uncontrollably for a moment. Covered in blood, Brand at this moment looked like a true hero, making the girl stare in a daze.
"I understand, sorry, sorry Brand."
Sophie took a deep breath, he didn't know how many times he'd done this, but indeed he needed to calm down first. Though breathing made his wounds feel like they were being ripped apart, he understood that pain was merely an illusion at this moment...
The three skeletons pulled out their swords, they paused. Because in their eyes, this human gradually lost the heat of life, and a different kind of power spread from within his body.
Power of Soul.
Unyielding Talent explored the Soul Fire from within, similar yet distinct from commanding the Undead.
Thus, the Undead considered Sophie one of their own at this moment, but there was a misunderstanding. Because Sophie didn't think so, he gritted his teeth and swung the hammer, knocking the four bone skeletons away.
This was not due to the young man's sudden increase in strength, but purely because it caught the other party off guard.
Sophie grabbed Roman's hand, taking advantage of this opportunity to dash out quickly.
"Miss Roman," he panted while running.
"Present, present."
"Listen carefully..." Sophie gasped, the Dead Hard ability couldn't let anyone overdraft stamina, he already felt the surroundings becoming somewhat blurry.
Only the whistling wind from running echoed around his ears.
"If I pass out, take me to Buqi, avoid Madara... go to the Holy Temple in town, find... the Life Potion, understand?"
"I, I understand, Brand... you won't die, right?"
"I don't know, cough cough... let's see Lord Martha's arrangement..."
Sophie didn't know if Miss Merchant truly understood, but he only had enough strength to say this much. The rest, as he said—would be left to fate.
He couldn't help looking back, amidst the blur, the hill was ablaze with flames. He sighed, somewhat exhausted, then closed his eyes—was he really just a game-addicted shut-in?
Perhaps the past life was indeed drifting away at this moment.
Really can't believe it, he could also be so brave and decisive one day, perhaps even if he died like this, he'd feel at peace.
"Because I'm no longer a waste..."
...
(PS. Can today's scores allow me to post three chapters? We'll wait and see.
Hope the Book Review Area has fewer pitiful reviews, more substantial ones like those from Saint Dragon Marshal brothers.)
