Chapter 278: Blood Swallowing
Translator: Translation NationEditor: Translation Nation
Night Kill was one of the rare upgradeable specialties.
A Night Walker’s fighting ability during the night would fiercely increase as this specialty leveled up.
But leveling this specialty would take a long time. Last time it happened was when Marvin took over the Southie. So much time passed in a blink and since then Marvin had killed countless creatures during the night. Ultimately, killing those two Dark Side Vampires leveled up the specialty.
After it leveled up, its description changed as follows:
[Night Kill (Hidden Specialty - Activated)]
Type: Passive/Upgradeable
Level: 2
Effect: During the night, Attack Power +6%, Attack Speed +6%, Movement Speed +6%, Burst Power +6%, Reaction Speed +6%.
...
This was a simple and rough passive!
But anyone who played the game knew that the most powerful specialties or skills were these kinds of passive skills. It could raise the strength of all kinds of attributes, let him become even sharper, improve his perception, and make his movements nimbler.
These kinds of invisible benefits could play a big role in battle.
For example, in the fight with those of the Dark Side, although his Night Boundary had such an overpowered effect, if his body wasn’t good enough, he simply wouldn’t be able to follow up with those difficult aerial maneuvers.
Even if an ordinary Sha clansman could use Night Boundary, he wouldn’t be able to aim his gun at the Vampire’s head before being kicked away!
That was the difference!
The body was the foundation, and the six main attributes decided the body’s quality. Apart from those, there were the passive skills and specialties.
Attributes, specialties, skills and spells, and fighting techniques.
These four groups of things made up one’s fighting strength.
Excelling in one area didn’t necessarily mean being powerful. Only with comprehensive strength in those fields would one become a powerhouse.
For example, many Half-Legend’s attributes were similar to those of Legends.
But because the latter were strengthened with Legend specialties, in most cases, Half-Legends weren’t their match!
...
Marvin was very pleased with the Night Kill specialty.
As an upgradeable specialty, who knew what frightening effects it could display in the future after reaching Legend realm.
Just that specialty was enough to satisfy him. Moreover, the Night Walker organization had given him so many nice surprises and favors.
Regardless if it was the old blacksmith guiding him with great care, or Constantine and O’Brien fervently supporting him, or even the blessings and inheritance of the Night Monarch, he had gained a lot more power than other classes.
This world wasn’t based around fighting alone.
Fighting the world alone was stupid and futile.
Using the players’ words: Strength in numbers!
A lone person fighting a group was very domineering, but in Marvin’s eyes, a group of Legends beating up a god was also very refreshing!
Who would be narrow-minded enough to want to duel nowadays?
...
After checking the specialty, Marvin’s eyes focused on that Dense Blood Nucleus.
After intense scrutiny, he confirmed that there was no malicious curse or poison on that Dense Blood Nucleus. Gwyn was certainly a strange Vampire. Him being so strangely magnanimous made Marvin hesitate a bit.
From the veins on the nucleus, it could be seen that this Dense Blood Nucleus had recently been condensed.
Anyone could understand or gain something from it.
There were many ways to use it. And the simplest one was simply to swallow it.
Even if the effects of swallowing were a bit inferior, Marvin couldn’t wait for an Alchemist to refine it into a more perfect treasure.
He stopped wasting time and directly swallowed the soft Dense Blood Nucleus.
Three minutes later, his body felt a bit cool!
