Captain's Command Whip

As Starship Coins were completely depleted.

Roger had more and more things in his hands.

Most of them are the skills and knowledge of sharpshooters or Ammunition Expert.

By learning these skills.

The system of related expansion modules will also be further improved.

Especially the profession of "Ammunition Expert".

With the improvement of this batch of books, it will completely get rid of the predicament of being a 'grenade maker'.

And among these.

The decisive factor was the skill book called "Original Enlightenment".

In front of the Skill Cabinet.

Roger didn't hesitate and immediately pulled out this book from the thick stack of books and began to study it seriously.

Of course, he didn't forget to use the Sage's Book to boost his focus first, in order to improve the efficiency of information acquisition.

15 minutes later.

The data panel then displayed the following information.

"Hint: You have mastered the knowledge-based skill - Original Enlightenment"

"Your Expansion Module - Ammunition Expert /Sharpshooter - has been upgraded to the Prodigy level, and you have gained a new attribute: Soul Essence."

"You have gained new energy: the Force."

"Done!"

With his Transcendent Intelligence and Transcendent Comprehension, Roger learned new knowledge at an astonishing speed.

In just a quarter of an hour.

A thick book of over 200 pages appeared in his mind.

This book records another way the Cowas People drew power from the Primal Stone—

"Soul Stone Resonance".

This refers to the method of using the power of the soul to resonate with the Primal Stone that one is with day and night, and then extracting an energy from it that is suitable for one's own fighting style.

This energy has many names: soul force, telekinesis, primal force...

Cowas People themselves couldn't come up with a unified name for it.

But since the system translated it as "The Force," Roger was happy to save himself the trouble.

Along with this new type of energy, "The Force," emerged a completely new fundamental attribute:...

"Soul quality".

As the name suggests.

Soul quality refers to the texture of the soul, while the corresponding texture of the physical body is called constitution.

Soul quality affects a person's soul strength, memory, and related resistances, but most directly it determines the basic data and growth coefficient of "Force".

The relationship between Soul Matter, the Force, and Ammunition Expert.

Just like the importance of comprehension and inner strength to Martial Artist.

Intelligence and magic are essential for a mage.

The higher the Soul Essence, the stronger the Force, and the greater the combat power of the Ammunition Expert.

Roger glanced at it.

His current soul quality is 13 points, which is considered excellent by ordinary standards, but it is somewhat lacking compared to his other attributes.

Calculate according to the formula on the panel.

His base Force should be 26-30 points.

However, the specific "Soul Stone Resonance" ritual has not yet been performed.

Therefore, his current Force bar is still 0. "There is another basic attribute that needs to be improved."

"Looks like the seven-sided warrior needs to change his goals..."

Roger happily put away all the books, knowledge, and manufacturing techniques.

After this wave of consumption...

Not only has the profession of Ammunition Expert undergone a qualitative change.

This also allowed Roger to gain a comprehensive understanding of the Cowas People's power system.

The fragmented information in his mind was transformed into a systematic understanding.

It can be said that I benefited a lot.

He recognized that the power structure of the Cowas People could be roughly divided into four areas:...

"The Mechanical Domain: A field dominated by mechanical devices such as firearms, starships, and mechs, with the ultimate representative being the Titan."

"Biological Domain: A field that develops various nest template organisms with the nest as the core."

"Force Domain: Based on the mechanical or Biological Domain, advanced individual combat systems with Force as their core have been developed."

"The 'borrowing' field: the field of imported elements, mainly including constructs, martial arts, and meditation."

The fourth area was the one that interested Roger the most.

He realized that the Cowas People were very good at 'borrowing' and 'absorbing' the strengths from other professions, races and civilizations.

Construct technology was originally invented by mages.

However, it was widely used on starships! Each profession has its own lineage of fighting techniques.

However, it is not hard to see from the Ammunition Expert's fighting skills that he seems to have learned from many different schools.

Meditation is the same as anything else.

Roger always felt that learning from others was the essence of the Cowas People! "Perhaps the other three areas that have now flourished were also borrowed from others..."

He thought to himself silently.

Between thoughts.

Roger traversed the plaza filled with "Skill Cabinet" and "Mimicry Pod" and arrived at the gangway in the tenth bridge area.

Compared to other regions.

There aren't many monsters here.

Roger has come a long way.

I just casually killed some stray "Ponytail Worm".

This monster has a large head and a small body, with two tentacles on its top hanging down like twin ponytails.

The design is quite unique.

Unfortunately, the attributes are extremely poor.

"You killed a Ponytail Worm."

"Your nodding speed has improved slightly."

To be honest.

This attribute is quite inexplicable.

Unless Roger wants to develop a move called "Ghostly Nod" to scare his enemies.

Otherwise, killing Ponytail Worm would be pointless.

But from another perspective...

This thing isn't a negative attribute.

Roger simply played around with it as he pleased.

By the time he reached the top floor, he had killed over 200 Ponytail Worm.

The relevant progress bar has barely reached 1%.

Roger tentatively nodded.

I noticed that the speed at which my neck extended and retracted hadn't changed significantly, but it did feel smoother.

"It seems to improve neck flexibility."

Roger pondered for a moment.

However, he did not deliberately linger for this kind of monster.

Between breaths.

He strode to the door of the Captain's cabin.

Within perception.

A monster breathing heavily was hiding behind the door, ready to pounce at any moment.

But Roger was not afraid.

He took out his consul's passport and swiped it.

With a soft "pfft".

The door opened.

"Alas..."

Before the strange scream could be heard, the dark figure had already pounced on Roger!

"Notification: You have encountered the corrupted Captain ' Morgan '."

"Morgan (Aberrant Human/Elite Template/Corrupted War Authority Rank 0.31/ Captain 010/ Corps Commander of the Star Fleet)"

"Profession: Sharpshooter LV50 / Warship Commander LV50 / Primal Hunter LV16 (Total Level LV100)"

In the blink of an eye.

A large amount of data flashed through Roger's field of vision.

Without saying a word, he raised his foot and delivered a Groin Kick!

The Floating Cloud Palm and the Taiyi Separating Fire Blade followed closely behind!

Bang! The Groin Kick seemed to have hit a steel plate.

Snap! Even the Floating Cloud Palm technique failed to grab the demon's legs! Boom! The six-meter-long Taiyi Separating Fire Blade slashed down head-on.

It slammed down hard on Morgan's head!

A dark blue shield flashed by.

The demon took a direct hit from the Taiyi Separating Fire Blade without sustaining any damage.

However, with the blessing of "Strength Ascension".

His body was still being pushed backward little by little by the flame blades.

"Roar!"

Morgan roared furiously, baring his teeth and brandishing his claws like a savage!

He was completely disheveled.

Apart from the tattered uniform, all that remained on his body were floating tumors and black body hair that rose like seaweed.

It looks disgusting and out of place.

On the data panel.

"Insight: You have realized that ' Morgan ' has completely lost his mind, leaving only a portion of his fighting instincts."

"Battle: The Taiyi Separating Fire Blade cannot break through Morgan's ' Force Shield '..."

"Sixth Sense: You sense that Morgan's ' Force Shield ' has an overall Defense Value of over 200 points..."

Roger's gaze lingered on him for only half a second before he had already figured out how to respond!

The next breath.

The Taiyi Separating Fire Blade suddenly swelled, shoving Morgan violently into the Command Room.

at the same time.

Roger stomped hard on the floor, creating a small dent! Whoosh! With the boost of his Core Explosiveness.

Roger appeared to Morgan's side like a ghost, delivering a Mountain Splitting Fist to his waist! The azure Force Shield reappeared.

But faced with that unstoppable force of the fist, the Force Shield that had just seemed incredibly resilient shattered at the slightest touch! Crack! Thud! The sound of the shield breaking and the sound of the Mountain Splitting Fist piercing flesh and crushing bones came almost simultaneously.

In Morgan's subconscious roar.

Roger's fist pierced directly into his waist.

It pierced through his ribs and chest cavity with unstoppable force.

It popped out from under the armpit of his other arm!

"Notification: The special ability ' Break All Laws With One Force ' is in effect..."

Faced with this Strength Ascension bonus specialty.

A shield that hasn't been Ascension-grade is just a piece of paper!

After shattering the shield with a single punch.

The ensuing battle was a natural consequence.

He suddenly pulled his fist out.

Roger executed a sliding tackle followed by a slam, completely controlling Morgan.

Under the relentless onslaught of the Taiyi Separating Fire Blade.

The former Captain, who had fallen into demonic possession, finally met his end!...

"You killed the corrupted Captain Morgan (Starship Commander/Elite)."

"Extermination Order reward successfully obtained. You have acquired Morgan's special ability - Force Tentacle."

"Force Tentacle (9th Ring Feat): When the time is right, you can use Force Tentacle to extract the soul of a target from their body and imprison it in the ' Eternal Sea ';

When a target suffers any form of damage, their soul returns directly from the Eternal Sea to their body; each use of the Force Tentacle consumes 200 base Force points; the longer the soul is imprisoned, the more Force points are consumed.

"That's interesting..."

This new specialty has a high ring score, but its individual performance is not particularly outstanding.

Roger did some research.

The "Eternal Sea" has been discovered to be a special soul Demiplane.

During imprisonment, one cannot do anything to the soul of the imprisoned person.

The conditions for using Force Tentacle are also extremely demanding—

The two parties must be in close and intimate contact for a long time.

Success is only possible when the target is extremely relaxed.

After that.

Roger can only think of two application scenarios for now—

First.

Replacing it with "Soul Projection" might achieve certain special purposes.

second.

One move to instantly kill their physical body, so that even if their soul returns, there will be nowhere for them to reside.

In conclusion.

More poses are yet to be explored.

"If I want to go to the Eternal Sea, can I just slap myself...?"

Gradually, I regained my composure.

Roger retrieved a number of Echo Orb from the former Captain's body.

besides.

There are also two items that have not been corrupted.

"Hint: You have obtained the ' Captain's Command Whip '."

"You have obtained the Starship Charter."
