Chapter 11 The Lonely Dancer
"this……"
Pharos was completely dumbfounded.
Although he had never been to March Bay or fought against the Moon Palace Guards, he had heard some of the related rumors.
The Moon Palace is heavily guarded.
Its rocky surface is impervious to blades and fire, possessing both exceptionally high defense and formidable damage output, making it unmatched by most first-tier adventurers.
What's going on now?
Why did the Moon Palace Guardian shatter on its own?
He looked at the grapefruit.
Grapefruit also looked surprised.
only.
Grapefruit possesses the [Arcane Eye], giving it an extraordinary grasp of detail.
She quickly realized the key point and asked, "Daigen, is the pool of water... what maintains the Moon Palace's guardians?"
...That's really perceptive.
Sieg glanced at the grapefruit and nodded, saying, "Yes. The Moon Palace Guardian's power source is the water in the pool. The most effective and safest way to deal with it is to drain the pool; without its power source, it will naturally collapse without any battle."
Grapefruit was genuinely impressed, a small smile appearing on her face: "You taught me a fun trick!"
"That's interesting."
the other side.
Pharos, somewhat disappointed at not getting what he wanted, put away his halberd.
He was a respectable man and didn't say much.
Watching Sieg pick up the essence of the Moon Guardian, he thought, "The Moon Swordsman profession is really not that great. Brother Dagen lacks foresight. I've said everything I needed to say; I've also explained the Moon Swordsman's shortcomings. I have a clear conscience about the choice he made."
In silence.
Sieg mobilized a tiny amount of magic and poured it into the essence in his hand.
The essence melted, transforming into strands of pure energy that surged along his meridians.
In an instant, Sieg's "heart fire" was ignited!
Extraordinary power surged forth, like molten iron, intensely hot.
Sieg's breath was scorching hot, and as the fire in his heart flickered, his body's potential was unleashed, transforming into a torrent of magic that flowed endlessly.
We need to stay calm.
Not everyone is qualified to become an extraordinary being. The most urgent task is to stabilize the inner fire and let it burn.
Once the inner fire is extinguished, it signifies a failed advancement. At that time, the rampaging magic within the body will destroy flesh and blood, with the most serious consequence being death by explosion, especially now that no protective measures have been taken!
Sieg closed his eyes, his emotions calm.
In his field of vision, a tiny candle flame, the size of a soybean, appeared—the source of his extraordinary power, his "heart fire."
The candlelight was dim, as if it would go out at any moment.
But it is so tenacious that no matter how it sways, it can always retain the smallest amount of light and heat, locking it in firmly.
"I cannot fail."
Sieg thought to himself, "If it were before, I might not have been so confident, but now, not only can I not fail, I'm guaranteed a huge success!"
[The Body Bearing Burdens]!
Whether one can become an extraordinary being is related to one's physical constitution.
The passive effect of "Body of Burden" is to greatly increase the panel attributes. If even Sig fails, then there is no one in this world who can succeed.
The stinging sensation returned.
"?!"
Sieg sensed something and opened his eyes.
He saw that the eerie bluish-black tattoo reappear, crawling all over his arms like maggots, starting from his shoulders and spreading all the way to the tips of his ten fingers!
What on earth is this thing?!
【Congratulations.】
A bright red system notification appeared before my eyes.
As always, you ignite the flame within your heart, gaining control of extraordinary power and transforming into the "Moonlight Swordsman."
[Influenced by the racial characteristics of the "Ancients," the Moonlight Swordsman reached perfection, undergoing a complete transformation and a significant boost in abilities, becoming a completely different class.]
You have changed your class to "Lonely Dancer".
You have mastered the skill "Dance of the Tengu".
You have mastered the skill "Silent Chanting".
"..."
What?
What? A lonely dancer? Is there such a class in this game?
I've never seen that before!
Sieg looked at the panel, where the information had been updated:
Name: Sieg
Race: Ancient
[Rank: 1]
【Occupation: Lonely Dancer (Green, Excellent)】
The Lonely Dancer is a hidden class, only obtainable after becoming a "Moonlight Swordsman" and fulfilling certain special conditions. Moonlight Swordsmen are guardians of the Moon Palace, while the Lonely Dancer is a priestess serving the moon.
Green and excellent profession.
The rating of extraordinary professions is the same as that of extraordinary items.
All "basic professions" are of the white common grade.
The Moonlight Swordsman is just a plain white character, quite unremarkable;
Green professions are the highest-level professions that Sig can currently access.
To advance further, you must first reach level three.
This was a pure surprise, and even the battle-hardened Sieg couldn't help but feel delighted.
Let's take a look at the skills:
[Dance of the Heavenly Dog: Team buff/control.]
[You begin to dance. During the dance, targets directly in your line of sight will be "Binded" and unable to move. The dance lasts a maximum of 10 seconds, after which you and your teammates will receive attribute boosts and become exceptionally agile.]
It's okay if you can't dance. Even just randomly twisting your body can count as dancing.
[Silent chanting: Range control.]
[When a woman sings, a man dies; when a man sings, he dies just as badly. You begin to chant, silencing everyone. Wherever your voice reaches, magic vanishes without a trace. For all those within it, magic merely swirls within their bodies, rendering them unable to use their abilities.]
[Silent chanting requires melody; normal intonation cannot trigger the skill.]
The louder your voice, the wider its influence.
"...?"
Sieg fell silent.
Wait... what kind of profession is this? Is this appropriate?
It looks very strong, and in fact it is very strong.
The Dance of the Tengu is a powerful single-target control skill. As long as you twist your body and look at the target, you can control him for 10 seconds. It is extremely powerful!
Not to mention, after the control effect ends, it can still buff teammates;
The silent chanting is truly impressive.
The value of the "Silent Melody" strategy is self-evident. Although it makes it difficult to distinguish friend from foe, the benefits of building a team around it are astonishingly high.
The group consisted of burly men, all of whom were skilled fighters.
Sieg yelled from behind, and the laborers rushed forward shoulder to shoulder; just imagining it makes the scene vivid.
and.
The Dance of the Tengu is clearly linked to the Silent Chant. Silence simply prevents the release of skills, but the previously applied buffs will not disappear.
The skills of the Lonely Dancer are quite consistent, no wonder it's a green class.
but……
That's so strange!
Sieg closed the panel, looked away, and thought, "Actually, it's not so bad. Lonely Dancer is a support class, so I have every reason to stay in the back. My safety is somewhat guaranteed."
"Grapefruit, what's wrong?"
Pharos made a confused sound.
Sieg turned his head and saw him squinting. He said, "Your eyes are bleeding!"
Xiyou held her eyes and looked intently at Sieg.
A line of blood slid down from the corner of her eye, leaving a shocking bloodstain on her fair and delicate face.
She looked at Sieg with a serious expression and said, "I'm fine..."
