Icadore's Touch

Besides "Irritable Gauntlets" and "The Spider Speaker's Ring".

Roger also found a locked safe, some loose Silver Horn and Copper Coin, two ledgers, a diary, and a signed letter of recommendation.

The money was simply taken away.

The same applies to safes.

Although Roger himself has not yet mastered any lock-picking skills.

However, he could consider purchasing lock-picking scrolls and tools.

The ledgers are just for backup purposes.

As for the diary and recommendation letters, those are quite interesting.

Roger skimmed through it.

This diary was written by Abo on a regular basis.

This shows that he is not a respectable person.

As the leader of the "Fierce Dragon Group" of the Red Sleeve Brotherhood.

He wrote down many insights into boxing in his diary, as well as some extreme teaching philosophies.

On a certain page in the middle of the diary.

Abo wrote this—

"Only those who dare to throw a punch at the innocent can be considered true men."

"If you want to become my student, you must prove your resolve with your fists."

"It would be too easy to beat ten people to death, but considering their frailty, it can be considered a basic standard."

This is evident.

Those shirtless "Black Fist Trainee" outside.

Each of them has at least ten innocent lives on their hands.

This doesn't even include the heinous crimes they committed when they robbed and destroyed villages.

The data bar popped up.

"You read Abo's diary and grasped the essence of Black Fist Trainee."

"You have acquired a new profession: Black Fist Trainee"

"Choices for Black Fist Trainee: 1. Part-time 2. Advanced 3. Expansion Module (Insufficient Expansion Slot) 4. Give Up"

"An absurd idea."

Roger silently closed the diary.

I decisively clicked "give up".

This kind of trashy profession doesn't even deserve his attention.

He then looked at the letter of recommendation.

This letter was also written by Abo.

The handwriting on the letter was beautiful, but the content was rather uninteresting.

It was just some routine recommendation.

Look at that tone.

It's like recommending a promising newcomer to report to the Red Sleeve Brotherhood headquarters.

Roger took it without any hesitation.

After doing all this.

His gaze continued to sweep around Abo's office.

It seems that Abo is a complete boxing fanatic.

The office is filled with sandbags and Bandage.

There is a lack of more loot to collect.

This made Roger slightly dissatisfied.

Just then.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the unusual bulge on Abo's corpse! "I'll see what's blocking my ultimate technique!"

Roger lunged forward and yanked open Abo's pants.

He had originally thought it would be a metal groin protector or some kind of high-end protective gear.

However, the actual content was unexpectedly appalling!

"Abo's Chastity Belt"

"???"

Roger silently released his grip.

It's understandable to feel a little lost when experiencing something like this for the first time.

He could only think to himself, "This guy, Abo, isn't just good at boxing."

It was at this moment.

A series of arguments could be heard outside the gate.

Roger, who had mostly recovered, cheered up.

There were nearly 50 Black Fist Trainee outside.

Most of them are between level 12 and level 19.

They appear to have a large and powerful force.

But in Roger's eyes, they were just a bunch of rabble.

A large group of burly men surrounded the office door.

In the private room upstairs.

Vicky's body has been discovered.

Sensing something was wrong, the Black Fist Trainee blocked the aisle.

Someone started trying to pry open the door.

But at this very moment...

The door was suddenly opened from the inside.

A delicate little glass bottle came flying from an unknown place and landed on the floor in the middle of the crowd!

With a loud bang! A terrifying black mist billowed up, instantly blinding everyone! The black mist spread extremely quickly.

In the blink of an eye.

They filled the entire tunnel and the rooms on both sides! Everyone lost sight of the tunnel.

They pushed and shoved each other in a panic, making sounds of fear.

"What is that?"

"Aaaaaaah!"

"Snake! There's a snake! Help!"

In the corner.

Roger silently removed the Scamorra's Ring.

This is not Smoke Bomb.

It is a rare Dark Elemental Bottle!

It can truly rob everyone of their vision.

But it was ineffective against Roger.

He spared no expense in order to wipe out this group of Black Fist Trainee!

And now.

It's time to collect the debt.

Roger lifted two simple crossbows, one on each side.

They opened fire on the shirtless thugs, unleashing deadly shots!

"You have killed one Black Fist Trainee, bringing your total number of Black Fist Trainee killed to 47."

You have gained 8 XP points.

"You have gained 12 Xia Yin Value (quest reward)"

"You have obtained Agility Shard *1 (Quest Item)"

The last Black Fist Trainee fell into a pool of blood.

Roger put away the crossbow without expression.

But in his heart...

I was already ecstatic!

Not to mention that I've already accumulated 56 Agility Shard.

Kill these ordinary Black Fist Trainee.

To think I could gain such a substantial amount of Xia Yin Value! This was a truly unexpected delight.

He quickly glanced at the data panel.

My Xia Yin Value have already reached 517! Enough to learn several Secret Techniques.

There is one drawback.

You can only gain Xia Yin Value by killing members of the Red Sleeve Brotherhood during advanced missions.

This made Roger feel somewhat melancholy.

Why are there time limits for advanced missions?

"Doesn't this prevent me from doing my duty as a chivalrous hero?"

"Give me six months, and I'm sure I can restore a bright and clear world to the Hall Countryside!"

Just as he was ranting and raving.

The data panel displayed the following message.

"Your Xia Yin Value have exceeded 500. From now on, you can use Xia Yin Value to upgrade the level of your special skills."

"Can Xia Yin Value increase the level of a special skill?"

Roger was slightly taken aback, but his mood immediately brightened considerably.

It should be understood that developing expertise is a very long process.

Roger practices his Qi Divination Technique every day.

I've been scrolling for so long.

It has only been upgraded from 1st Ring Feat to a level 2 specialty.

Even Roger's upgrade speed can't keep up, which shows how difficult it is to improve one's specialization.

And now.

You can increase the level of a specialty simply by consuming a certain amount of Xia Yin Value.

This was incredibly good news for Roger.

He couldn't wait to choose the Qi Divination Technique.

"Qi Divination Technique (Ring 2): Consumes 280 Xia Yin Value Points to upgrade to Ring 3"

"So expensive!"

Roger felt a pang of regret.

However, he still decisively chose to upgrade! If you run out of Xia Yin Value, you can withdraw them from the bandits.

However, the effects of the Qi Divination Technique are difficult to demonstrate with data.

The third-ring Qi Divination Technique not only has a higher Cognition Count.

Moreover, it has been greatly enhanced in the field of divination.

However, once you see the number of Xia Yin Value required for the next round of upgrades...

Roger's heart was filled with lust for the Brotherhood members' bodies!...

After clearing out the basement.

Roger went down the spiral staircase to the second basement level.

There is a hidden wooden door here.

The Qi Divination Technique revealed this.

There's a big problem behind the door!

A copper lock with intricate patterns hung on the wooden door.

Roger inserted the Brass Key he found in Abo's drawer and then tried to turn it left and right.

A snap.

The lock is open.

He held his breath and gently pushed open the door.

The smell of the sea wafts over me.

A thick, dark shadow suddenly slammed down on him without warning! If Roger hadn't given a heads-up, he would most likely have been hit.

He dodged with a side somersault and looked up.

It was a tentacle, with only a small portion protruding from the ground!...

"Icadore's Touch (An Extremely Weakened Ancient Evil)"

"LV16 HP 99 DEF 7"

Weakness: Sharp Weapons

Roger reached back and pulled out the Crimson Moon Blade from the crucible.

The next second, he suddenly rushed through the wooden door.

It slashed at the tentacle with the force of a thunderbolt!

A flash of light.

The tentacle snapped off instantly!

"You have used the Sin Mark on the Icadore's Touch."

"You have killed one Icadore's Touch."

You have gained 1 XP point.

"Your saliva production has increased slightly."

"Unlucky!"

Roger's face darkened.
