This battle was extremely rewarding for Duncan!
——"Weapon Master (Gun): Your mastery of gun-like weapons has reached an extraordinary level, with swift strikes like lightning. When using any gun-like weapons, your combat skills will be greatly enhanced."
The fourth master-level combat skill should come from the elite chieftain guard and the Saxon noble riders.
"Truly mastering all eighteen martial arts." Duncan chuckled.
In today’s bloody battle, Duncan killed nearly a hundred enemies, counting those slain with the cross axe.
——"Lance Charge Master: As your mastery of gun-like weapons improves, you also possess the formidable power of a lance charge unmatched by ordinary people. Your astonishing skill is enough to easily win the knight tournament championship." The source of this content ɪs novel·fire.net
This seems to have improved along with the weapon master of gun-like weapons.
——"Navigator (Special Ability): Some people are natural navigators, born for adventure at sea and easier to survive storms and shipwrecks. Strengthen intuition when navigating, less likely to lose direction."
——"Underwater Breathing (Special Ability): It is said that in Scandinavia, some people are naturally blessed by the ocean, or they might have a trace of sea demon bloodline in them. They can breathe briefly underwater, and those with stronger physiques can sustain longer, even dive deep into the sea. They are less likely to drown, becoming the earliest pirates."
Two special abilities.
But they weren’t dropped by those formidable enemies; they were seized from individual elite Saxon pirates.
Duncan wasn’t saying that killing powerful enemies would surely warrant seizing abilities, but if these enemies possess special abilities he lacks, it becomes easier to seize them through slaughter. Today, Duncan clearly killed many elite Saxon pirates, unaware of which one had a trace of sea demon blood. Anyway, they didn’t show anything special in battle; maybe they were shot dead by him at random.
Such enemies will probably be particularly troublesome at sea!
The Virgin Possessor—Enfiss’s command nearly assembled the finest batch of Saxon pirates on Great Britain; today’s fierce battle caused them heavy casualties, leading to a significant decline in Saxon pirate power for a long time.
The last special ability came from the Beheader.
——"Giant’s Blood (Special Ability): In Scandinavia, some humans have a trace of giant’s blood, often possessing astonishing strength far beyond ordinary people, regarded as descendants of heroic spirits from the Mythical Era. This ability can significantly enhance one’s strength and gradually break through the limits of human power over time, finally possessing near-legendary half-giant strength after crossing the human critical point."
The biggest harvest from this battle wasn’t Hosa; Hosa just provided some combat skills. The real transformative ability came from the Beheader—Isold, whose giant’s blood immensely enhanced Duncan!
"It appears I need to kill some special enemies."
Duncan picked up a metal goblet, squeezing it into a different shape with ease. The giant’s blood had already begun to take effect, but reaching its full potential still needed time.
The power of gluttony and holy grail blood in him still hasn’t reached their limits, still slowly enhancing.
"I want to be a dashing and handsome ranger like the Elf Prince, but all the powers I obtain are of Berserkers!"
The Barbarian Race was indeed heavily hunted; the powers obtained were all strength-related wonders.
Duncan actually didn’t like frenzy at all; he rarely triggered adrenaline burst due to its large side effects, and he felt anger could affect his rational judgment and grasp of battle opportunities.
Hotheads really die exceptionally fast.
In total, five ability enhancements, fundamental combat skills didn’t change much, just chopping and stabbing all turned golden, while a couple of other combat forms turned into light golden borders, mainly the core basic moves of sword, knife, and gun.
Currently, Duncan finds using axe-like weapons incredibly adept; the combat skills seized from the Barbarian Race forcibly turned him into an axe master.
Just glanced at the future deduced from the Law of Cause and Effect, not much changed, just a slight variation in the final conclusion.
His existence transformed into——King of Britain—Duncan [Upper-Rank Heroic Spirit].
"Still can’t kill the giant dragon."
"However, with my current strength, can’t I slowly unify Britain even in human form?"
"King of Britain—Duncan."
"Ultimately can’t surpass the emperor of the empire, Augustus—Duncan!"
Duncan wouldn’t become arrogant just because he rose to prominence on Great Britain; it’s merely a small place. Mainland Europe is the real battlefield; only when he is confident in defeating the three-star golden Demon Hunter—George, can he truly stand atop mortal martial prowess.
Slightly fatigued Duncan closed his eyes to rest, feeling a bit nostalgic for Anya, not due to overwhelming energy, but because Anya would ride swiftly, and when truly weary, she would tenderly care with deep affection, Anya’s lips heated like flames.
Aphrodite’s Esoteric Buddhism is wonderful indeed, worthy of serving the God of Love and Beauty.
A faint mist enveloped this land.
Not knowing how long had passed, in a state between dream and wakefulness, Duncan suddenly became alert, his consciousness entering the field of vision in the dimension space.
