I'm Really Not Targeting the Mages

Chapter 19: Gargoyle Statue

This was the first time Roger had seen space items since he teleported.

This sort of thing was extremely rare.

In Tongma Town, it was said that only the lord himself held one.

But that was just a rumor.

In Roger’s memory, the game in his previous life was indeed more restrictive in terms of storage space. At that time, he even complained about the designer because the 24-compartment backpack was too small.

But now, looking at this storage item with a regular capacity of only 4 compartments in his hand, Roger actually had an urge to cry!

He finally no longer had to carry five to six backpacks during adventures!

Objectively speaking, the space provided by [Cowens’ Stomach Pouch] was actually not that big.

There were only 4 compartments in total.

The storage space of each compartment was only slightly larger than the drawer of a computer desk.

But this also eased Roger’s urgent need to a great extent.

Element bottles, magic books, magic scrolls, medicine sachets and herbal products, one-time trap props, one-time unlocking props, silver dimes and copper orders, flint and aluminum (fire-starting props) ...

He stuffed in all the small things that could be stuffed in.

Lookinf at the orderly arrangement of the numerous items in [Cowens’ Stomach Pouch], Roger’s heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

The only regret was that when he found the stomach pouch, it was completely empty.

He wasn’t sure if it was due to the death of the Corpse Demon, which caused the items in it to also be erased by spells that the Corpse Demon had set in advance; or if it had already been empty originally.

...

In addition to [Cowens’ Stomach Pouch], the other two pieces of equipment also had their own unique features.

The first was the leather armor that Roger had picked out first.

...

[Dragon Lizard Leather Armor]

[Rating: S]

[Defense 9, Texture 11, Hardness 3, Durability 7]

[Special Effects: Dragon Lizard’s Protection (One-Time)]

[Dragon Lizard’s Protection: Automatically triggered when a large amount of damage is sustained in a short period of time. A layer of hard solid cuticle made of white film will be formed on the surface of the leather armor, which is immune to physical attacks to a great extent.]

...

Although it was just a one-time powerful protection, it was worthy of the S-rating evaluation.

For adventurers, this special effect was sometimes equivalent to a life!

It happened that Roger’s leather armor was severely damaged in the previous extreme burning storm.

Not only had its shape turned grotesque, but it also suffered a sharp drop in durability. He estimated that if he used it any longer, it would have to be reconstructed entirely.

Therefore, he simply put on the [Dragon Lizard’s Leather Armor].

“Although the coating of [Cold Fish Fat] can indeed resist the attack of flames, ordinary clothes can still be damaged. ”

“So the extreme burning storm should be used less often, or else I can consider running naked the next time I use it...”

Many strange fighting strategies flashed through Roger’s mind.

He conveniently placed the third piece of equipment in his palm, ready to use the Qi Divination Technique to inspect it carefully.

“The Qi Divination Technique is indeed really useful.” Roger praised again in his heart.

As the Hermit Ranger’s special expertise, the utility of Qi Divination Technique was far superior than other ordinary expertise.

It could be perfectly applied to many fields:

The first area was divination.

Although it was a bit incomprehensible, the Qi Divination Technique did have certain divination ability. contemporary romance

Roger only needed to meditate in his mind about the things he wanted to divinate, and the Qi Divination Technique would automatically deduce the good or ill luck of the related matters.

Of course, it was also just limited to good or ill luck.

For example, if the dog of the neighbour was lost.

Roger could not use the Qi Divination Technique to find the dog, but he could use the Qi Divination Technique to foretell “the probability of finding the dog today”, “the probability of the dog being eaten by a monster” and the like.

Generally, these were considered a relatively vague judgment, but sometimes it had amazing effects.

...

The second area was [Insight into Creatures].

Through the analysis of the target creature, Roger could obtain certain information before he fought with his opponents.

With more in-depth contact between the two sides, this information would gradually evolve, becoming more detailed and closer to the real situation.

In this regard, Roger did not particularly rely on the Qi Divination Technique.

Whether it was the Red Tide Corpse Queen or the Corpse Demon, it proved that the Qi Divination Technique was not flawless.

Therefore, he was still more inclined to find deeper and more reliable answers through his own observation and probing during the battle.

The Qi Divination technique could only gather the superficial information from the monsters.

But the trump cards hidden under these surface information were what Roger truly cared about!

...

...

The third area was [Inspection of Items].

This was easier to understand as it could be used in a similar way to the “Investigation Technique” in fantasy games.

The Qi Divination Technique often had two modes when inspecting objects.

The first mode was screening.

Just now when Roger was picking equipment, he used this mode.

In screening mode, Wang Qi could scan a large number of equipment at the same time.

Through the difference in the color of the item, Roger could make a rough judgment on the quality of the item.

He had only seen four colors so far.

Gray and white meant ordinary items, light green represented normal quality, and azure blue symbolized excellent products.

Then there was violet.

...

Violet might not be better than blue, but it must be rarer than blue.

Sometimes, certain “special items” might also have a mixed result of good and bad.

In contrast to the screening method, the second mode was independent identification.

In terms of inspecting objects, the Qi Divination Technique had a very high success rate.

He didn’t even need to find a professional appraiser.

In this regard, you could say that it had saved a lot of money for Roger.

...

In summary, the Qi Divination Technique had a wide range of uses.

If it weren’t for the stamina and energy consumption, Roger would have activated it 24 hours a day.

And under the expertise of [Qi Divination], there was a thin and bright yellow progress bar, which was now very close to completion.

This was a sign that the expertise was about to be upgraded.

“I hope that after the upgrade, the consumption can be reduced a bit, not to mention other improvements.”

Roger sincerely looked forward to it.

After one thought passed, the item he put in the palm of his hand had produced the identification result.

...

[Gargoyle Statue (Forbidden Object)]

[Rating: ?]

[???]

[Seal: A gargoyle of unknown level is sealed within]

[Seal Lifting Method: ???]

...

Roger’s expression turned slightly surprised.

This was the first time he had encountered so many question marks in an item’s description.

Although this was not a special item, the term forbidden object seemed to indicate the extraordinary nature of the gargoyle statue.

After a little research to no avail, Roger carefully put the gargoyle statue away.

This thing must be extraordinary, but for the time being,?he just hadn’t found the specific way to use it.

He believed he would surely find out if he spent more time studying it in the future.

After Roger finished packing the spoils, he didn’t have time to stretch, so he opened his character panel.

During the battle of slaying the Corpse Demon, he was promoted by 4 levels in a row. Aside from the accumulation of energy, his own strength also improved slightly.

The first was attribute point and new skill.

For the Hermit Ranger profession, a free attribute point would be given with every 5th level increase, every 4th level would gain a new combat skill.

He currently had 1 free attribute point.

Roger had nothing to hesitate and directly threw it on [Agility].

This was the main attribute of Hermit Ranger.

So his agility came to 12 points.

The two new skills were as follows:

...

[Moon Walk: In a place lit with moonlight, your running speed will increase significantly]

...

[Trap removal: You can dismantle some common traps with bare hands]
