38 Critical Strike In Every Attack

Translator: Exodus Tales

Editor: Exodus Tales

An unfamiliar ceiling, but it’s made of rocks. Thankfully, this is still the Wilderness. I didn’t transmigrate again.

As he thought, Lu Chen moved down from the bed but as soon as he moved, he felt a wave of sharp and intense pain in his head.

“Ahhh!” Lu Chen’s squatted down on the floor with his hands on his head.

“Ah’Chen, are you alright?”

“Master, you are awake!”

Two figures rushed into the room when they heard the noise. One was Master Wuzu and the other was Lu Chen’s maidservant Xiao Wei.

But Lu Chen didn’t have the energy to respond to the two, he stayed in the same position for a long time and waited for the pain in his head to go away.

After some time, Lu Chen stood up while massaging his head. He gave the two a bitter smile and said, “Don’t worry about me, I’m fine. In fact, I might’ve gained something useful.”

“Gained something useful?”

Wuzu was puzzled to hear Lu Chen, but never pressed on the matter further as he noticed Lu Chen was a little unwilling to talk about it.

He turned around to fetch a bowl of hot soup and handed it to Lu Chen, then he lectured Lu Chen, “Next time you see an Evil, don’t rush to charge at the forefront. If it’s too powerful to handle, you have to wait for the chieftain and I to get there first.”

“The rules of barbarians do not apply to the Evils. We can wait for more barbarians and go at it all at once.”

Master Wuzu gave Lu Chen a long lecture about him going against the umbrella Evil alone.

However, even when he was lecturing Lu Chen, Master Wuzu still gave Lu Chen three big bowls of hot soup to aid him in recovering the Vigor he used in the battle last night.

Hence, it was clear that he was still very satisfied with Lu Chen.

After all, how could he not be? Although he already knew about Lu Chen’s potential, he was afraid that Lu Chen would be a selfish brat who wouldn’t risk himself to protect the villagers.

But Lu Chen’s heroic performance in the battle with the umbrella cleared his worries. 𝑓𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝑚

He is daring enough to fight a Black Coffin Vicious Specter on his own to protect his people. Such bravery, such a sense of responsibility, and all that talent in him, Ah’Chen can definitely lead the village to new heights.

It was of course not encouraged for the barbarians to tackle any Evil on their own. However, if it was done for the cause of protecting their own people, then it would be nothing but a display of one’s bravery and sense of responsibility.

Hence, Wuzu and the chieftain were both sincerely happy to see such qualities displayed by Lu Chen.

The truth was, the two had it all wrong from the start. Lu Chen was brave, yes, but his bravery wasn’t meant to protect his villagers. His motives were mainly selfish.

Only those that I kill with my very own hands will reward me with Mastery Points. An Evil that is under the totem pillar’s suppression is my best target, how could I ever let the others snatch it away from me?

Lu Chen was just afraid that the other barbarians would kill it instead, that was why he was so determined to charge at the forefront.

Of course, Lu Chen would be repeating the same course of action whenever he got the chance to. Hence, it would probably take a very long time before the rest to realize the truth.

Because his mind was occupied by other stuff, Lu Chen didn’t talk much. After he drank the three bowls of hot soup, Lu Chen’s body was slowly recovering some of the energy.

Seeing that it was already noon, Lu Chen didn’t stay back in Wuzu’s place and brought Xiao Wei back to their home.

“Ah’Chen, you… you have to be more careful next time!”

On their way back home, Xiao Wei mustered all of her courage and said to Lu Chen.

But Lu Chen didn’t answer.

Careful? This isn’t a world that just being careful will make you live longer.

Soon, they returned to their home and Lu Chen ordered Xiao Wei to leave the room so he could have some time on his own.

Lu Chen wasn’t joking when he told Wuzu about his gains in Wuzu’s house.

In his coma, Lu Chen felt as if he had become a young man whose purpose for life was swordsmanship. He was honing his basic sword skills every day nonstop for years and years.

In the dream, his swordsmanship had reached to a level that was… indescribable.

Of course, that was just a dream, it was far from reality. Back in the real world, Lu Chen’s memories started to fade and although he could still recall some of his swordsmanship attainments, the level he had reached in his dream was no more.

However, even when it was just some of the swordsmanship attainments, it was more than enough for him.

He casually picked up the metal sword beside him and this one simple action stunned Lu Chen.

The sword didn’t felt like an item but a part of him that he had finally reunited with after a long time.

He held the sword before him with one hand and caressed it with the other, then, some information just popped out in his mind.

The sword body is 1.8 meters long, the edges are 4 centimeters thick, and it is 300 kilograms in weight. I can use it with the broadsword mastery!

Just by touching the sword, Lu Chen learned all the information he needed to know about the metal sword, and he quickly understood how to unleash the sword’s potential in the best way possible.

This was the level of swordsmanship Lu Chen was now at.

He spent some time learning about the metal sword before calling up the system page. He wanted to take a clearer look at his improvements.

As of now, the system page had a series of messages piled up for him to go through.

[System Message: A large amount of external information has overwhelmed the host’s mind and shut down the host’s brain. Host has fallen into a coma.]

[System Message: Host has acquired Swordsmanship Mastery Points. Basic sword skill—Swordsmanship has leveled up.]

[System Message: Swordsmanship has been raised from Beginner to Intermediate.]

[System Message: Swordsmanship has been raised from Intermediate to Advanced.]

[System Message: Swordsmanship has been raised from Advanced to Master.]

[System Message: A large amount of Swordsmanship Mastery Points has been detected. Upgrading Swordsmanship…”

[System Message: Swordsmanship has been upgraded into Master Swordsmanship (Beginner).]

[Master Swordsmanship (Beginner) (Silver): After years of nonstop honing your swordsmanship, your sword is now part of your body. You are now an expert in longswords and are also able to wield any kind of sword at will. At the same time, you have enhanced your willpower and strengthened your body from the years-long of training.] free(w)ebnovel(.)com

[Passive: Willpower +10, Longsword Mastery +20 (You can also wield any kind of sword at will), Sword Mastery +20. Strength Mastery +10.]

[System Message: It has been detected that Strength Mastery +10 is linked to the Silver skill, Critical Strike (Beginner). Proceeding in leveling Critical Strike…]

[Critical Strike (Intermediate) (Variant): After years of honing your swordsmanship, you will go into a perfect stance when using a longsword. You will always have full control of your body and can cast Critical Strike anytime.]

The Critical Strike leveled up because of some other skills?

Lu Chen was surprised to see it happening but he was quick to understand the logic behind it.

That’s right too. There are conflicts and similarities between the skills. Some skills can also affect the levels of the other skills.

Just like my Barbarian King’s Bloodline that can enhance the qualities of the Barbarian Blood Warrior.

The upgrade of the Master Swordsmanship enhanced the control of my body and the sword. Since I can perfectly control my body, it’s only normal that I can also ameliorate the preparation stance of the Critical Strike.

No, not only did it enhance the Critical Strike, but the 20 points of Sword Mastery will also enhance my other sword skills.

Even when Master Swordsmanship felt like it added no visible improvement in his prowess, it was the basics of all sword skills. Whenever he has this skill with him, it will enhance the prowess of every other sword skill Lu Chen learned in the future. It could level up the sword skills or even upgrade their grades.

This was the importance and the most valuable aspect of the basic skills.

What a shame, the Critical Strike is enhanced by the Master Swordsmanship. That means I have to use a longsword if I want to cast Critical Strike nonstop in every attack.

Lu Chen thought. Clearly, he has forgotten that although he was strong in strength and body, he was actually a Swordsman in nature.
