Northland, Moldavia.

The strong wind blew, and the sudden snow fell with the cold tide from the extreme north. Under the shade of gray clouds, the sun was as dark as the night, and the shrill wind echoed in the air, like the sound of a trumpet.

It is December, and it is snowing. In the last month of the year, blizzards and strong winds will sweep across the entire empire. Even the hottest Far South will feel the coldness of the condensed ice during the day. Because the temperature suddenly drops, everyone stays away from their doors and lives on the crops they have harvested in the past. They allow the snow piles higher and higher over the window eaves and block the door.

Due to the special natural environment, the buildings in the north are different from other places. The doors are opened inwards, so as not to encounter the embarrassing situation where snow blocks the doors and cannot move. But even so, when the snow stops, many people still have to take shovels and dig out a way out bit by bit.

At this time, a gust of wind swept up the floating snow, which could allow the extremely cold that could freeze the boiling water in a flash. In this terrifying environment, even the Dragon Caravan stopped trading, no matter how crazy people were, they would not choose to go out now.

But there are still exceptions.

Moldavian leader, the main city, at the top of the wall, a man with black hair and red eyes was standing on the edge of the wall in a black single dress.

Faced with such a storm, he closed his eyes and did not move like a sculpture. If his skin was not still rosy, his chest was slightly undulating. At first glance, he looked like he was dead.

In fact, Joshua is ‘breathing’.

With a strange rhythm, the warrior motivated his lungs, sucked in the extremely cold air, and then trembled slightly, resonating with his muscles and internal organs and the most subtle parts of his body. The frequency of blood flow was also changed, and the flow was accumulated in the body that was exercised to the extreme, accumulating strength.

Dou Qi is an extension of life, part of the combination of "self" and flesh and body. It is born in the depths of the body due to its strong body and strong will, and is slowly stored. Logically speaking, it will never explode unless it is at the critical moment of life and death.

However, humans on the Conflict Continent have used thousands of years of experiments to summarize a set of methods that can systematically utilize this power.

Its name is breathing method.

"call."

Joshua slowly breathed, and the scorching water vapor was like a white air wave in the cold wind, moving against the heavy snow.

Exhale all the air in the lungs, then control the flow of your blood, slow down the heartbeat, but it becomes more powerful, and the internal organs gradually become slower. Then, take a deep breath according to the rhythm, so that the body that is close to silence will leaps, and the power stored in the deep is released, gradually strengthening the body.

The severe cold of the wind and snow tempers will, making the mind calmer. While the body temperature is quickly taken away, it makes the breathing more difficult and stronger. Until dozens of minutes later, at the end of many breathing cycles, an inexplicable black and red luster lit up from the warrior's heart, and then it flows rapidly with the blood, covering the whole body. It is vaguely, and the clanging sound like a collision of metal can be heard.

“Successfully.”

Opening his eyes, Joshua's face, which was a little stiff due to the severe cold, showed a faint smile. He stretched out his right hand, looked at the slowly flowing on it, and nodded with satisfaction: "I have practiced hard for many days and finally practiced the 'steel armor breathing method'."

He pulled out a knife from his waist, and then stabbed his arm mercilessly. The speed was so fast that it even brought about a strong wind. However, with an extremely harsh scraping sound, the tip of the knife was completely flattened as if it had hit metal armor, and the blade was twisted in an unsatisfactory way. The warrior's arm was intact, with only a little dark red light flashing in the place where he had been stabbed before.

"Yes, this effect is just level one."

He threw away the knife that had turned into a piece of scrap iron. Qiao Xiuya ignited a red Dou Qi flame all over his body, sweeping away the stiffness caused by the ice and snow. Then he simply turned his head and walked towards the city: "Although it was a bit hasty, this breathing method can indeed quickly transform into combat power, and it will not be useless to occupy a space in my permanent gain state."

The permanent gain state is the scientific name. In fact, players are used to calling it [passive skill]. There is only one passive skill column at the Black Iron level, while there are two silver and three gold. Unlike ordinary skills, passive skills require a long time of training to obtain. Just like the "steel armor breathing method" that the warrior just practiced hard. Even with the convenience of the cold and past experience, he also trained for five days before he was initially successful.

As a former legendary warrior, Joshua knew many useful passive skills and how to train, but it really made him determined to spend a passive skill column and quickly practiced a passive skill because of the letter a few night ago.

On the night when the banquet ended and met with Monster, after reading the text message sent by the Emperor of the Empire, Joshua did not rest, but continued to unpack the letter, which was a text message from the Black Forest Fortress.

【To the Lord of Moldavia, Lord Joshua van Radcliff:

Thick fog appeared in the black forest, and the roars of the monsters gathered were getting louder and louder. The detection spells could even confirm that there were gold-level monsters mixed in the beasts. According to past experience, this dark tide should be ahead of the end of the month or early January. The fortress has been martial law. Please prepare for quick support.]

【Your faithful Zorgen.】

Black Tide, and gold-level monsters.

Thinking of this, Joshua's expression couldn't help but become serious.

If the destructive power caused by the supernatural supernatural being at the peak of the silver can be comparable to a high-power cannon that can move rapidly and unlimited ammunition, then the destructive power caused by the supernatural being at the golden level is comparable to a supersonic bomber that can cruise at several times the speed of sound and has an infinitely high-power cloud bomb reserve.

This is just a human. If it is a monster of the same level, its pure power will be even better. If you are hit by such a force, no matter how powerful the fighting spirit is or how skillful the skills are, you will definitely suffer internal injuries due to the limitations of physical strength.

Although with Joshua's skills and control ability, enemies of the same class cannot pose a threat to him at all, Kuroshio is completely different from fighting alone. It is not as simple as dealing with nineteen silver mercenaries before. If the team is accidentally dispersed, it means that one person will deal with hundreds of monsters and there is no room for dodge.

This is a war. Every Black Tide is a real war. No matter how cautious it is, it is not too much. Moreover, as the lord, Joshua's mission is to rush into the beast group and kill powerful silver and even gold-level monsters that can threaten the fortress walls. In addition, because of the crazy virus of the Black Erosion Dragon, the intensity of the Black Tide will definitely keep up. Even no matter how strong the warrior is, he must prepare and plan for this battle.

There are always many difficulties and many problems that need to be solved. Faced with these, the steel armor breathing method is his choice.

Most of the armor, especially magic armor, have the ability to immunize shock and reduce physical attacks. A warrior who wears armor and will not be distracted by some scattered small attacks has at least three times as much combat power as he did when he was not worn. Qiao Xiuya has the MAX intention and does not lack attack methods at all, but his body is still the most basic extraordinary body of the golden level. Facing countless crazy monsters, what he needs to enhance is his defense.

Steel Armor Breathing Technique, this skill comes from a powerful warrior who is not as strong as a human. He calls himself the King of Tooths and wanders around the mainland. As long as he defeats him, he can learn several special warrior skills. There is no doubt that Steel Armor Breathing Technique is one of them.

It can increase basic armor and reduce some physical damage. It can be immune to all shock damage in the later stage and has extremely strong defense against puncture damage. In addition, it can also increase physical strength and life recovery speed. Until the end, just like wearing a layer of real high-level magic armor, there is no vital on the whole body. It can also increase the physical fitness of the warriors who practice it in all directions, so that they can adapt to various situations and places.

However, this skill is not popular among the public in the game - it is nothing more than a layer of protection. Weapons and skills that can break through armor will definitely penetrate the body. If that is the case, why give up a flexible and changeable gain bar and learn this kind of passive skill in defense? In addition, most players are not afraid of death. They who can be resurrected like attack more than defense. Except for guys like Joshua who are uncommon, few people learn this passive skill.

But now, the situation is very different. This is a real world. There is only one life. Even if Qiao Xiuya loves fighting and enjoys the pleasure of fighting, it does not mean that he wants to die. The real armor and breathing method, double-layer defense is the double-layer trump card, which is a force that makes him stronger and less likely to be killed.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a slight vibration came from the gate of the south city, interrupting the soldiers' thoughts.

"What's going on?"
Chapter completed!
