Chapter 499: Chapter 225: Secret Technique! (2-in-1 Large Chapter)_4
 

That exquisite combination of primal force and hammer skill!

Rein turned around and walked step by step to the side of a huge and hard boulder, three or four meters high, recalling that feeling from just moments ago, he swung his pig-headed hammer in a mighty, yet most ordinary strike!

“Snap!”

The dark pig-headed hammer heavily smashed onto the gray boulder weighing at least several tons!

The next second, “crash!”

The gray boulder instantly shattered and collapsed, especially where the hammer had struck, breaking into fine powder!

Then, a system prompt stealthily appeared:

[Congratulations, you have comprehended the Tokkal Hammer Technique Basic Secret Technique: Shockwave!]

Secret Technique — Shockwave?

A smile involuntarily formed on the corners of Rein’s mouth!

Immediately, the delighted Rein saw a brand-new icon located above the two major techniques of the ‘Tokkal Hammer Technique’ – ‘Rising Dragon Hammer’ and ‘Earth-Splitting Hammer’ on the Weapon Master (Legendary) panel.

This icon was larger and more lustrous, and its design was more intricate!

The icon’s design depicted a hammer heavily smashing into the ground, with radial lines in front, seeming to represent the wave-like force generated from the shock, overwhelmingly fierce.

In the lower right corner of the icon, there were small words:

Shockwave (Basic Secret Technique) Effect: Use a special activation method that combines primal force with multiple shockwaves, swinging the heavy hammer to deliver a high-frequency vibrating strike.

(Note: The Shockwave belongs to a secret technique and cannot be enhanced through skill points.)

(To elevate Shockwave to the Intermediate Secret Technique, the following conditions must be met: one, Tokkal Hammer Technique LV14 and above (hammer specialization can offset some level requirements); two, King Bear Breathing Technique LV14 and above. three, consume one Golden Skill Point.)

Consume one Golden Skill Point?

Seeing this, Rein was momentarily stunned!

At the same time, he felt somewhat fortunate for having saved that single Golden Skill Point earlier.

After all, Golden Skill Points were hard to come by.

They could be obtained only by encountering and defeating formidable enemies, making them a rare and not easily sought resource, while regular skill points had a wide range of uses and converting three into one Golden Skill Point was too extravagant.

Additionally, looking at the phrase ‘hammer specialization can offset some level requirements’, Rein pondered thoughtfully.

Perhaps, this was one of the important reasons why the profession of Weapon Master could be classified under the legendary tier.

Being specialized in all weapon categories at LV1 meant that learning other Transcendent Combat Skills’ secret techniques would be much easier for him compared to others.

To put it another way, under similar conditions, he could master the secrets ahead of time!

This was indeed the true value of the Weapon Master’s exclusive talent ‘Basic Weapon Mastery (Passive)’.

….

By the time Rein returned to the administration office of Fishing Port Town,

the Reiman brothers had already been waiting at the door.@@novelbin@@

Seeing the expressions of the Reiman brothers, Rein’s heart stirred, he asked, “What has happened?”

The older brother, Cobert Reiman, shook his head, his eyes revealing a sense of reluctance, and said,

“My lord Baron, just now a decree signed by Count Habs was delivered. The messenger said I am to take over your role in Fishing Port Town as the Governor, and Cornet as the Security Chief, while you are being reassigned to the county town.”

“My lord Baron, you…”

Upon hearing this news, Rein was momentarily startled, and then he smilingly said,

“This is good news, I hope you two will manage Fishing Port Town even better.”

…..

Several days later, Rein was mounted on a tall black horse, having declined the Reiman brothers’ offer to escort him, he set off alone to Meist County City.

By then, the White Snow Month had finally passed, the snow on the fields gradually began to melt away, eager young green sprouts were already striving to burst out from the soil, and the Month of Vitality had followed.

The early morning sky was exceptionally bright, the warm morning sunlight shone on Rein, casting a golden glow, as he rode forward, his gaze directed toward the winding road in the distance.

In the vast wilderness, that winding, twisting road seemed to symbolize that Rein’s path ahead was not a straight and smooth highway.

Yet inexplicably, a phrase rose in Rein’s mind.

Where there is a mind’s path, there lies the open road!
