Chapter 370 Lion Dance

After turning into an ocelot, Gao Fei cannot hold a weapon, and the claws, as natural weapons, have a damage dice of only 1d4.

Counting the +6 agility modifier, it is impossible to penetrate the damage reduction armor of the Night Hiss Hound without triggering a critical hit.

This is when the "Monk Mask" comes into play.

The "Monk Mask" of the 4th-level Mimic provides three abilities.

In addition to "Protective Qi", there are "Fighting Qi Strike" and "Martial Arts".

"Fighting Qi Strike" upgrades the claws to magic weapons, ignoring the damage reduction armor of the Night Hiss Hound.

"Martial Arts" increases the damage dice of unarmed combat to 1d6, and can use a bonus action to add an unarmed strike each round.

Does a cat scratching someone with its claws count as an "unarmed" strike?

Of course it counts!

So when Gao Fei turns into an ocelot, the damage dice of the cat's claws is increased to 1d6, scratching two times per round, and the lethality is equivalent to dual-wielding magic daggers!

After dodging the Nighthound's attack again, Gao Fei jumped three feet high, swung his cat's claws and aimed at the dog's face with two big slaps!

Snap!

The first claw hit the Nighthound's face, causing 8 points of piercing damage, making it howl in pain, but the second claw missed.

Gao Fei frowned and found that things were not simple.

In ocelot form, the cat's claw attack roll is +8, while the Nighthound's defense is 17, and the hit rate is about 60%.

It is normal for Gao Fei to miss one of his two claws.

Of course, this problem is not difficult to solve.

The cat's claw can cause "piercing" damage, or it can change from scratching to scratching, and the damage type becomes "slashing", thereby gaining the enhancement of "Weapon Focus (Slashing)", and the attack has an advantage.

However, Gao Fei has a better tactical choice.

Turn on "Agile Action" to execute "Retreat", Gao Fei avoids the Nighthound's opportunity attack and climbs up a big tree.

Gao Fei squatted on a tree branch, turned his head and meowed sarcastically at the night hound under the tree.

"Are you dumbfounded, dog? I can climb trees!"

The night hound looked up at the dense tree canopy, shook its tail, and took a stance, intending to fly into the air and chase Gao Fei.

Before he flew up, Gao Fei suddenly jumped down from the tree!

Just like the "dive and crush" of a dragon, a cat jumping from a height of more than 10 feet can also be considered a charge.

Since it is a charge, the strongest talent of the cat family beast, "Pounce (Lion Charge)", has its place. The attack check has an advantage in this round, and the damage dice are doubled from 1d6 to 2d6!

Gao Fei pounced on the back of the night hound and hit two lightning-fast cat punches!

HP-14!

HP-15!

"Martial Arts" combined with "Pounce", a pair of small cat claws, the lethality is comparable to that of a giant sword, both cute and fierce, two claws can knock off half of the life of the Night Hiss Hound.

Gao Fei jumped off the back of the Night Hiss Hound, and "Agile Movement" executed "Retreat", avoiding the opportunity to attack again, and the cat master went up the tree!

Climbing to a height of more than ten feet above the ground, Gao Fei turned around and pounced, and another set of gorgeous cat punches, beating the Night Hiss Hound to a bloody face and wailing.

Pounce + Agile Movement·Retreat, hit and run, pull away and kill again.

This is the routine that Gao Fei learned from the lion Dimitri, called "Lion Dance"!

The Night Hiss Hound was hit by two rounds of "Lion Dance", and its life was at the bottom. It dared not chase Gao Fei anymore, and hurriedly flew into the air, stretched its neck, and let out a magical howl.

When Gao Fei saw it open its mouth, he guessed that it was going to use its supernatural power "Horrible Roar", so he immediately switched the "Monk Mask" to the "Berserker" mask and turned on "Frenzy".

Gao Fei's imitator had to level up one more level to learn "Courage Aura" through the "Paladin Mask" and become immune to fear.

Now he could only use the will immunity advantage provided by "Frenzy" to enhance his resistance to "Horrible Roar".

The roar of the Night Hiss Hound, Will DC 12.

Gao Fei's current Will immunity +6, plus the double dice advantage, finally resisted the fear effect caused by the barking without any danger.

As long as he successfully passed a Will immunity, he would not be affected by "Horrible Roar" again within the same day.

The Night Hiss Hound howled for a while, and found that the wild cat was still standing there, looking normal. He was immediately disappointed and quickly cast "Transformed Spirit Body", and his body turned into a phantom, intending to sneak into the spirit world.

Once the Night Hiss Hound completely escapes into the spirit world, it is equivalent to being invisible.

Gao Fei has not yet mastered the means of "seeing through invisibility". It is too unpleasant to deal with an invisible opponent and be on guard against the opponent's sneak attack at all times!

Thinking of this, he switched the "Berserker Mask" to the "Witcher Mask", stood up and turned back into human form, raised his hand and fired a "Magic Energy Explosion" enhanced by the "Magic Spear".

At this time, the Night Hiss Hound had just escaped into the spirit world and was already invisible. Before it had time to run away, it was hit by the "Magic Energy Explosion".

Most offensive magic cannot directly kill targets in the spirit world.

But magic with the "force field" attribute is an exception.

For example, "Magic Missile" and "Magic Energy Explosion"!

The Night Hiss Hound was almost killed on the spot by the "Magic Energy Explosion". It no longer dared to entangle Gao Fei and fled to the depths of the spirit world in a panic.

After driving away the vicious dog, Gao Fei didn't even have time to take a breath, and hurried to help Ma Yun deal with Esterna.

He had just run two steps when he saw Jiang Feng's berserker carrying a battle axe, running over from the other side of the woods.

"Gao Fei, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Did you kill the Nightmare Pony?"

"I chopped that guy to the point of death, so he fled to the spirit world."

"The Nighthound is the same."

"Don't worry about the two stray dogs, go help Xiao Yun!"

Jiang Feng rushed in front, followed by Gao Fei.

However, when the two came to the area where Ma Yun and Eastna were fighting, they were blocked by a transparent "air wall".

They could only watch as the protective buff on Ma Yun was instantly stripped away by Eastna's 3-ring "Dispel", and then she was knocked down by a series of whistling "magic missiles".

"Damn! It's another plot kill!" Jiang Feng stomped his feet in anger, "If the plot didn't force Xiao Yun and Eastna to fight alone, we would definitely kill that witch together!"

Gao Fei smiled bitterly and calmed her down.

"Isterna is obviously a key NPC. If I guessed correctly the game designer's idea, this person will become the heroine's nemesis, providing her with an incentive to be killed by her nemesis if she doesn't grow up quickly."

"If you let your temper run wild and kill Isterna here, then what kind of nemesis is she? The design intention of this character will not be reflected."

"Alas! I admit that what you said makes sense, but why design these unpleasant plots?" Jiang Feng said angrily, "I prefer games that don't require thinking, no emotional drama, no mental journey and character creation, and just kick the door open and rush in to kill people!"
