Barbarian King Bloodline

Barbarian King Bloodline (Beginner): For many years, the Barbarians who lived in the wilderness had faced harsh natural conditions—drought, cold, and the constant threat of beast attacks. Years of living in crisis had given them strength and resolve as solid as boulders.

At the same time, within Barbarian tribes, only the strongest could become king. As Barbarian Kings, they possessed strength and physiques far beyond ordinary people, and could even fight using rage. You who inherit the Barbarian King's blood shall also possess such power.

Passive Skill, Savage King Body: Host Strength +10, Constitution +10, Health +10, Rage +10.

Active Skill: Endless Rage. When Rage reaches ten points, the host may consume all Rage to increase their own Strength by 100%.

Bloodline can be upgraded. Experience required for upgrade: 100,000.

Looking at the golden Barbarian King Bloodline skill icon, Lu Chen's mouth twitched.

"What is going on? Why did Highland Bloodline turn into Barbarian King Bloodline?"

"And Endless Rage looks a lot like a skill from League of Legends. Does that mean that once it reaches the highest level, I'll have a health-lock cheat?"

Endless Rage was the ultimate skill of Savage King Tryndamere in League of Legends. Tryndamere was known as the Five-Second True Man, referring to how, after activating Endless Rage, he was immune to death for five seconds.

And now, this skill had fallen into Lu Chen's hands. Of course, Endless Rage currently did not have the ability to lock his health.

However, that was not the most important thing. Lu Chen was now very puzzled about why Highland Bloodline had transformed into Barbarian King Bloodline.

He did not ponder for long before he quickly thought of something.

"Could it be because this body of mine is a Barbarian and possesses Barbarian blood? When the system modified my body, it turned Highland Bloodline into Barbarian King Bloodline."

Thinking of the golden light that modified his body whenever he leveled up, Lu Chen felt that his guess was probably right on the mark.

"It seems that game skills need to be modified before they can display their power in reality. Only by adapting to this world can skills from the game take effect!"

Having thought this through, Lu Chen no longer paid attention to the changes in his skills. After all, even if he focused on them, he could not change anything.

Then, Lu Chen looked at the Barbarian King Bloodline and sighed.

To be honest, the Barbarian King Bloodline was not weak. Both its passive and active abilities were extremely powerful.

The passive skill, Savage King Body, directly increased base attributes. This was exceedingly useful, and the increases were substantial as well.

In the game Lu Chen had designed, Strength +1 did not mean his attributes rose by a single point. It represented gaining the strength of one ordinary person.

+10 thus meant gaining the strength of ten people. And besides Strength, Constitution, Health, and Rage all increased by 10 as well.

This meant that Lu Chen was now ten times stronger than an ordinary person, and every single one of his attributes was ten times stronger.

Just think of Chen, the original Barbarian youth. He had practiced Savage Bull Force for years, yet had only gained one point of Strength so far. Now Lu Chen had gained ten points at once. From this, one could see how powerful the Barbarian King Bloodline was.

Yet when he looked at the Strength, Constitution, and Health added by the Barbarian King Bloodline, Lu Chen always felt something was off.

"I chose Sword Saint's Path, and Sword Saints are all about graceful movements and peerless technique. What's with giving me overwhelming Strength and Constitution? Those are abilities needed for changing class into a Barbarian!"

The mismatch in his attributes left Lu Chen helpless. But the body modification had already been completed, his bloodline had awakened, and Sword Saint was a unique fixed progression path. Thus, Lu Chen could only grit his teeth and continue onward.

Still, Lu Chen felt that from now on, the style of his Sword Saint would inevitably go wildly off course.

It sounded like a long time had passed while he examined his skills, but only a few breaths had gone by outside. By the time Lu Chen finished checking his skills, the Shaman had yet to arrive.

And although Lu Chen had awakened the Barbarian King Bloodline, he was still weak all over.

There was no need to be surprised. This was perfectly normal. Lu Chen's Strength, Health, and Rage had indeed increased, but what had increased were their upper limits.

If Lu Chen's body were intact, he would naturally be able to display the strength represented by those attributes.

But now, Lu Chen was in an extremely weakened state and terribly hungry. No matter how strong a mighty man was, after starving for several days, he would be just like Lu Chen now, without the slightest bit of strength.

And without strength, Lu Chen naturally had no thoughts of stirring up trouble. He turned his attention inward once more, checking the trial required for Swordsman advancement.

Ding. System notification: An abnormality occurred while the host's Highland Bloodline merged with the body...

Ding. System notification: The golden skill Highland Bloodline was devoured by the bloodline within the host's body. Highland Bloodline has now transformed into Barbarian King Bloodline.

Ding. System notification: The host's Militia level has reached its peak. Please complete the class change task as soon as possible.

Host may change class to Warrior... Ding. System error!

Host may change class to Mage... Ding. System error!

Host may change class to Hunter... Ding. System error!

Host may change class to Swordsman. Please undergo the trial task and break through your limits!

Break Through Limits: A Swordsman lives for the sword and dies for the sword. Only those with tenacious spirits and no fear of danger may be called Swordsmen. The host must challenge a monster of a higher level than themselves. Only after the monster dies and the host's spirit is elevated may Experience be used to improve oneself.

Note: This task is difficult. Please become proficient in using skills and equip suitable gear before attempting the challenge.

The trial task was somewhat dangerous, but upon seeing it, Lu Chen was not worried.

"The Barbarian King Bloodline gives me ten times the Strength and Constitution of an ordinary person, powerful health and vitality, and Rage as a trump card. I can complete this task."

"Once I recover, I'll go complete the trial."

But just as Lu Chen steeled his resolve, a system notification suddenly cut in.

Ding. System notification: Upon detection, the host has already slain a White Wanderer-level Evil Soul. This was a challenge across ranks. The host has completed the trial, comprehended the will of a Swordsman, and elevated their spirit.

The host may now use 100 Experience to break through their limits and change class into a Swordsman.

The system notifications left Lu Chen, who had just been filled with heroic ambition, speechless for a long while.

Only after quite some time did Lu Chen let out a sigh.

"It's good that it's completed. This way, I can directly advance into a Swordsman."

Of course, Lu Chen could only talk about it now. He did not move.

He had not forgotten that his previous improvement had nearly killed him.

"Unless I stockpile a large amount of food, I absolutely will not level up again."

While Lu Chen was lamenting that the task had already been completed, the Shaman finally arrived on the other side.

However, the first to reach Lu Chen was not the Shaman, but an enormous Barbarian standing around 2.4 meters tall. Not only was that Barbarian massive, his body was covered in countless mysterious Barbarian markings.

As such a Barbarian approached his body, Lu Chen felt immense pressure.

Yet although the pressure was heavy, Lu Chen felt no fear. The man before him was not his enemy, but the village's protector.

"Clan Chief, you came too."

"Yes. How could I not come when something this serious happened in the village? It is good that you have retained your sanity."

As he spoke, the towering Barbarian still approached Lu Chen's body at once and restrained Lu Chen with both hands.

"Old Bai, please check whether A'Chen is still one of us."
