NOVEL NEXT Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Headshot With A Sword! Gradually Run Against The Sky! (2/5)
Evolve again!
The sprinting skill is now at +2. Although it's only an F-level skill, after being evolved twice, it's even more powerful than a D-level skill.
Activate 150% movement speed!
Lasts 9 seconds, with a cooldown of 11 seconds!
"There's only two seconds left."
"And this skill can evolve a total of 12 times? How powerful will it be in the end?"
John marveled.
The game had only started a minute ago.
Others might not even have F-level skills, yet he already had such powerful skills!
At this moment, he was in the ruins of the ancient city.
He saw a pile of equipment on a heap of rubble in the ruins.
"Huh? Someone wants to grab it?"
John saw more than 20 meters from the rubble pile. There were already two players, likely on the same team, approaching the pile.
"Trying to take something from me? Think again."
Sprint, activate!
John started sprinting directly.
Although he hadn't eliminated anyone yet and didn't have any footwear, his movement speed had reached 35 points!
35 points, what concept?
Nearly 21 meters per second!
In the last game, John got three eliminations and acquired a pair of silver boots to surpass this speed.
And now... John started off so fast!
He completely ignored the two players.
He rushed over and picked up the equipment on the rubble pile.
The silver armor with whole body defense +30!
Cheese!
Patch!
And there was an E-level skill book!
Before John could see what it was, he turned and ran.
"Damn it! He took it all! Why does that guy run so fast?"
"It must be an acceleration skill, let's chase him!"
The two players who were robbed were furious.
They chased after John!
"It can evolve again!"
"Continue to evolve, sprint!"
John evolved while running.
[Your "Sprint" skill has evolved successfully!]
[Sprint +3 (F-Level Skill): After activation, movement speed +200%, and the first attack after activation receives additional damage of movement speed * 2! Lasts 11 seconds. Cooldown for 9 seconds.]
The sprinting skill, evolved again, had changed once more.
The movement speed had reached 200%, and the first attack after activation would have a damage bonus.
The damage is the movement speed multiplied by 2!
"In a state of 200% acceleration, my movement speed is 42 points."
"In other words, there is an additional damage bonus of 84 points."
"Isn't this too cool?"
You know, this game had only just begun!
John only had a bronze long sword in his hand, but he was fearless.
He turned back!
Like a gust of wind, holding the bronze long sword, he approached the two players.
"How dare he turn back?"
"Maybe the acceleration time is ending, he knows he can't run away, and wants to fight. Be careful not to be eliminated..."
The voice just fell silent.
John activated +3 sprint, and the opponent didn't react at all. A sword slashed through one of their heads!
-303 (Headshot!)
Because John was moving too fast, the opponent had no time to judge his position.
Directly hit the head with a sword!
It turned into a wooden box.
[You eliminated the target (number 00369)!]
[You have gained 5 points of all attributes (only valid for this game)!]
When the other player tried to attack John with his long knife, John had already run away, far from his attack range.
"What the heck?"
"Why so fast?"
The player was shocked.
John wasn't in a hurry either.
He was waiting for the cooldown of the sprint, and the damage bonus would only take effect once every time the sprint was activated.
He first ran to a distance and glanced at the skill book he had just acquired:
[Steel Body (E-Level Skill Book): Defense increases by 20 points, passively effective.]
A defensive skill!
Directly increases defense by 20 points.
This skill might be good for some players, or it might be trivial.
But for John...
Seems okay?
"Can you preview the evolution effect?"
John thought for a moment.
The system quickly returned:
[Preview:
- Body of Steel +1: Defense increases by 40 points, passively effective.
- Body of Steel +2: Defense increases by 70 points, passively effective.
- Body of Steel +3: Defense increases by 110 points and reduces head damage by 70%. Passive effect.
...]
He glanced at it and felt there was no need for evolution.
Although if it continues to evolve, the passive defense alone can increase by several hundred points.
Standing and being hit won't even cause damage.
But he's not the type to just stand and take hits!
"Preview the evolution of sprinting."
John then previewed his sprinting skills.
He found that when sprinting +7, the movement speed is increased by 400%, the cooldown time is reduced to 1 second, and the additional damage of the movement speed * 6 is activated.
"It seems that a skill that evolves all the time will be stronger."
"Let's talk about sprint evolution +7 first."
At this time, John's sprinting skill had finished cooling down.
Activate!
He turned back directly, chasing toward the player who was left just now.
That player, seeing he couldn't catch up with John, already wanted to run!
But...
Where could he run to?

(Every round, the protagonist has a random SSS-level talent! So the fighting style will change, but no matter what talent it is, it will be very cool!)
