Chapter 775 Oliver Twist

In fact, the kind-hearted old gentleman Mr. Brownlow has been looking for the illegitimate son of his late friend Edwin for many years, and Oliver is the son of his old friend he has been looking for.

Before Edwin died, he left part of his property to this illegitimate son, and entrusted Brownlow to find Oliver, who was taken away by his mother since childhood, as the guardian of the child.

Mr. Brownlow went to the hospital where Oliver was born, and finally found out his life experience. He was about to go home to tell him the good news, but he never thought that the child ran away from home and left a letter, saying that he did not want to implicate the kind-hearted Brownlow family because of his own fault.

Mr. Brownlow was eager to find little Oliver, so he posted a missing person notice on the street and offered a reward of 2,000 pounds.

When the three tramps saw the missing person notice, they remembered that they had seen little Oliver fishing by the river the day before, and heard the child say that he was going to Mrs. Freddy's poorhouse to make a living.

The three men were obsessed with money and ran to the workhouse excitedly to ask Freddy and his wife if they had taken in a street kid named Oliver Twister.

Mrs. Freddy saw that the three guys had ulterior motives, so she used a charm spell to induce them to tell about the reward for finding the person.

Freddy and his wife felt that there was no need to share the reward with the three homeless people, so they killed them and hung them in the slaughterhouse in the basement, leaving them for breakfast for the ogre adopted sons.

After some investigation, the couple learned that little Oliver was the heir to the property of a deceased rich man in the city.

Mrs. Freddy originally planned to fatten up the skinny little Oliver and eat him, but when she heard the news, the old witch became greedy and couldn't bear to eat little Oliver.

The couple conspired to use little Oliver to seize the inheritance of Edwin's family.

Unfortunately, little Oliver didn't listen to them, which angered Freddy and his wife, who locked him in the basement and let him reflect on himself.

After understanding the whole story, Gao Fei and his team sent little Oliver to Mr. Brownlow's house.

Old man Brownlow was very grateful and readily gave the four of them 2,000 gold pounds as a reward for finding the child according to the reward price indicated on the missing person notice.

After completing this side quest, Gao Fei said to Lisa with emotion: "Little Oliver escaped from the devil's cave and inherited a large inheritance. It can be said that he survived a great disaster and will have good fortune in the future."

At this time, the system sent a reminder that a plot milestone had been achieved, and the star chart energy +1!

Gao Fei's mimic was upgraded to level 8.

HP +7 (58), attribute +1 (charm 21).

Attribute replacement, upgraded from "proficient" to "mastery".

…

Mastery replacement: Concentrate on meditation for 1 minute to complete the attribute replacement.

…

Gao Fei's magic pet "Eye of the Bead" also upgraded with its master.

HP +5 (37), attribute +1 (charm 20), natural defense +1 (4).

When the Mimic reaches level 8, 8 of the 12 "Magic Masks" develop new abilities.

"Berserker Mask" adds "Wild Intuition", which is equivalent to gaining the benefits of "Intuitive Dodge" and "Reflex Dodge" at the same time.

"Thief Mask" increases the sneak attack damage dice to 4d6.

"Poet Mask" learns "Seduce".

During the performance, it can suppress abnormal mental states such as "Rage", "Fear" and "Charm" within 60 feet.

"Priest Mask" increases the energy channeling to 4d6.

"Ranger Mask" learns "Walk Through the Forest", walking on difficult terrain such as quicksand, mud, ice and overgrown weeds, without affecting the speed and will not be entangled by animated plants.

Gao Fei's "Warlock Mask" has always retained the 1st-level "Entanglement" imitated from the tree spirit Enya, which can be used with "Walk Through the Forest" to form a simple and practical tactical combination.

Wear the "Warlock Mask" and "Ranger Mask" at the same time, and then cover the battlefield with "Entanglement".

It seems that both the enemy and the enemy are trapped in the vines, but in fact, only the enemy is suffering. Gao Fei can use the "Forest Walk" to freely shuttle through the vines, gaining a huge advantage in mobility.

This routine is applicable to all terrestrial hostile creatures!

Miss Lisa has a lot of scenes in this chapter and performs brilliantly. At the end of the main storyline, she is promoted to the 7th level "Judgment".

HP+7 (52), channeling 4d6, and also learned two 3rd-level magic spells.

One of them must be a 3rd-level magic spell in the "Judgment Field", which is the highly cost-effective "Dispel".

The second 3rd-level magic spell can be chosen at will, as long as it does not conflict with your own beliefs.

Gao Fei suggested that Lisa take "Spirit Guardian".

This 3rd-level magic spell can create a spherical barrier that moves with the caster, with a radius of 15 feet.

Hostile creatures that break into this area will suffer 3d6 points of radiant damage each round, and their movement speed will be halved.

Compared with mages or warlocks, a major weakness of priests is the lack of control spells.

For example, "Grease", "Glitter Dust" and "Spider Web" are not in the regular divine spell list. If priests want to learn such spells, they can only choose the corresponding fields, which are related to faith and professional paradigms, and they cannot be chosen at will.

In this case, the "Spirit Guardian" with both "killing" and "control" effects becomes extremely valuable.

Especially for female clergymen like Lisa who are naturally weak in strength, they cannot compete with those tough male priests who are used to wearing heavy armor, holding large shields, and wielding morning star hammers to hit people's heads. They should choose "Spirit Guardian" to make up for their shortcomings in close combat.

Sister Claire was promoted to level 7 "Beast Tamer", with HP+8 (54).

Automatically learned the 2nd ring "Transfiguration", awakened the "Telepathy" ability, and can share life with animal companions.

Mario was promoted to level 8 thief, with HP+8 (61), attribute +1 (agility 21), and learned "Stealth Expert".

…

Stealth Expert: When the character is in the shadow, it automatically enters the invisible state.

…

After passing this chapter perfectly, Gao Fei got a bonus profession, which is Carl Freddy's "Warrior".

Unfortunately, he has already taken this profession in the two-player module "Harbor City Raiders", which is a bit of a waste.

Among all the pure kitchen knife professions, the strongest offensive one is recognized as "Berserker", and the strongest defensive one is undoubtedly Warrior.

Gao Fei dared to say that no one understood the "Berserker" better than him.

But even in terms of attack power, he did not think that the Berserker would definitely win over the Warrior.

In a PK between the two sides, the Berserker must output damage with all his strength in the shortest possible time, and try to take down the Warrior in one set.

If the Warrior is beaten to a low health but is not killed, something terrible will probably happen next...

The three bonus feats in this chapter are "Mastery of Shield Attack", "Mastery of Blocking" and "Wild Casting".
