Chapter 348 Formulate countermeasures

Gu Siyi's "steel bones and soft muscles" are divided into two modes with completely opposite characteristics.

In the "steel bones" mode, Gu Siyi will also gain damage reduction armor commensurate with her life dice, that is, 10/blunt attack.

In reality, cold weapons, such as swords, spears, swords, and halberds, whether they are slashed or stabbed, it is difficult to scratch her skin.

Even if a powerful firearm is fired at her chest, there is a high probability that it will not break the defense.

Relatively speaking, it is more reliable to use blunt weapons to deal with the "steel bones" mode.

Gu Siyi's damage reduction armor cannot offset the damage of blunt attacks.

It's like an egg in an iron shell. When a hammer hits it, the shell is intact, but the egg inside is inevitably shattered.

In the steel bone mode, Gu Siyi's natural weapons, mainly fists and feet, are equivalent to magic weapons, and have a hardness of 10 points.

What is the level of 10 points of hardness?

In reality, the hardness of high-speed steel (tool steel) used to make high-temperature bearings and forging molds is about 10 points.

When Gu Siyi swings her hand knife, it is equivalent to swinging a sharp steel knife, and it is of course easy to cut a glass bottle.

When Gu Siyi switches to "soft muscle mode", her body changes from extremely hard to extremely flexible, losing the damage-reducing armor, and replaced by tendons and muscles that are as elastic as rubber, which can be twisted into shapes that violate the physiological structure of the human body and easily pass through holes such as drain pipes.

Her internal organs will also move with the expansion and contraction of her body, and there is no fixed vital part, so she is immune to the extra damage caused by heavy blows and sneak attacks.

In "soft muscle mode", Gu Siyi's fists and feet are still equivalent to magic weapons, but the hardness is weakened. The benefit is that her hands and feet can be stretched up to 10 feet to attack targets that cannot be touched.

In addition to "steel bones and soft muscles", Gu Siyi also has two special expertise that can barely be regarded as martial arts.

"Mastery of Grappling" is needless to say. Gao Fei has seen similar expertise in the game world, the killer of wrestling characters.

For ordinary people who have not received any professional training, fists and feet can be regarded as natural weapons, but the damage dice is only a pitiful 1d2 or 1d3.

Gao Fei, a fighting enthusiast who has received short-term training, knows how to use fists and feet to hit opponents better than ordinary people, so the damage dice is increased to 1d4 - this is the limit of amateur fighters.

Gu Siyi's level is even higher, and the damage dice of unarmed combat is 1d6.

If we use the weapons in the game as an analogy, the damage dice of daggers, hatchets, hammers and sticks are only 1d6.

Getting punched by her is like getting hit by a hammer - this is the destructive power of a high-level professional fighter!

"Wow! This sister is too fierce, it's a bit unbearable!"

Gao Fei secretly complained.

If Gu Siyi is a criminal, or has malicious intentions towards Gao Fei and tries to endanger his personal safety, then Gao Fei has reason to apply to Yaoguang for the "awakening" authority to release the power of the "Dragon Warrior", and it is not difficult to deal with her.

But Gu Siyi, the mutant, is different from Feng Xiaojun. He has registered in Tiangong, accepted formal management, and has no record of illegal crimes.

This is troublesome.

Gao Fei can't apply for awakening authority just because of a competition of exchange nature. Otherwise, even if Yaoguang reluctantly agrees, she will be unhappy with his behavior of using public tools for personal gain.

Gao Fei is just an intern now, and he is still thinking about getting a regular job, promotion and salary increase as soon as possible. Of course, he can't leave a bad impression on his boss!

Since he can neither awaken nor use magic devices such as "Frost Star Wand" in a magic-free environment, the only card left in Gao Fei's hand is the main profession of "Tiangong Special Police".

Except for the "awakening mode", the other abilities of Tiangong Special Police do not involve supernatural powers and can be used in a magic-free environment.

If Gao Fei wants to defeat Gu Siyi, a powerful opponent, he can only spend time on the selection and matching of weapons and equipment, free attributes and free expertise, and design a set of tactics that can restrain "steel bones and soft muscles", which is the essence of Tiangong Special Police.

As for weapons, Gao Fei decided to borrow Jiang Feng's stick.

This +1 magic weapon is equivalent to a refined long stick in a magic-free environment, with an attack roll of +1, a damage dice of 1d6 for one hand and 1d8 for two hands.

The most important thing is that the stick is a blunt weapon, which can penetrate Gu Siyi's damage reduction armor in the "steel bone" mode.

As for protective gear, the standard Taoist uniform and half-finger boxing gloves for free fighting contribute almost zero to the defense bonus.

Gao Fei really wants to wear his police +1 star quality riot suit, which can provide 4 points of armor defense even in a magic-free environment.

However, on second thought, this thing is like a bulletproof vest, thick and heavy, and the Taoist uniform can't cover it at all. Once it is exposed in public, it will inevitably arouse suspicion.

Especially for a fanatical "Tian Fan" like Deng Hui, he can recognize at a glance that this is a special protective gear for the "Tiangong Special Police", which is equivalent to exposing his identity.

Without armor, Gao Fei's defense level is only 12, which is far behind Gu Siyi's defense level of 23. It's like fighting against a humanoid Gundam wearing only a vest and shorts. How can you fight?

Actually, there is a way to fight!

Although Gao Fei is at an absolute disadvantage on both offense and defense, he has an overwhelming advantage in intelligence.

Through in-depth analysis of Gu Siyi's attribute panel, combined with the rich free expertise he learned from the game, Gao Fei is confident that he can build a tactical system against Gu Siyi, using software (expertise) to make up for the gap in hardware.

Let's configure the free attributes first.

Gao Fei is a level 7 Tiangong special police officer with 3 free attributes.

After a little consideration, he added all the free attributes to strength, raising the strength attribute to 18.

Next is the highlight - configuring free specialties!

Gao Fei has a total of eleven specialties in the Berserker module, namely:

Iron Will, Power Attack, Perseverance, Tenacity, Unbreakable, Mastery of Charge, Tooth for Tooth, Rampage, Strong, Combat Reflexes and Strong Body and Heart.

In his exclusive Mimic module, he has obtained three specialties, namely:

Agile Movement, Intuitive Dodge and Weapon Focus.

Now he has to choose four of the above fourteen specialties to match a tactical system to fight against Gu Siyi.

Gao Fei used his brain, and after a short and intensive deduction and calculation, he finally chose:

Mastery of Charge, Intuitive Dodge, Tooth for Tooth and Combat Reflexes!

After configuring the free attributes and specialties, Gao Fei opened the star disk and checked his status panel.
