Chapter 68: The Secret of Bloodline Inheritance
Yes, it's just one MT short.
The snake man, who inherited the heroic bloodline of the poisonous technique, took the agile route, and had at least strengthened his agility attribute over a hundred times. With his ghostly speed, he could easily cause fatal damage to Adarog, but there was one thing - if the snake man were to be placed in the front line, with his small build, he wouldn't be able to withstand it, and would probably be slapped to death by Adarog's few palms.
Moreover, the selfish and self-serving Snake Man would not do such a laborious and profitless dangerous thing, even if he had a way to attract Adarog's hatred, he would not do so.
As for the ice knife, it's even more unnecessary to say that a fragile and pitiful magician with strong intelligence attributes would be killed instantly if Adarog gets close, and naturally can't serve as a meat shield.
Han Yu Moziqi and Snake Man's situation is similar, both taking the agile route. However, when thinking about Han Yu inheriting the bloodline power of the Wind Walker hero, everyone's eyes lit up. With hopeful gazes, they looked at Han Yu standing on the high rock, opening the Wind Step skill. The Wind Walker can 100% dodge physical attacks, making it perfect for being a meat shield to withstand the rampaging Adarog.
"No way, I won't be able to take it." Mozi Qi shook her head and refused resolutely.
Although there was no need for explanation, after seeing the disappointed expressions on everyone's faces, she hesitated slightly before speaking up: "If I had learned the Wind Step skill, I could have taken the lead, but unfortunately, I haven't grasped that skill yet."
"Why? Haven't you already successfully awakened the talented hero's bloodline and inherited the power of the Wind Walker's bloodline?" The crowd couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, you ignorant worms, do you think that just because you've successfully activated the Hero's Bloodline, you can master all of a hero's skills? How naive!" The Snake Man sneered.
The ice knife beside him also slightly curled up at the corner of his mouth, revealing a cold smile with a hint of disdain.
Successfully unlocking the heroic bloodline does not mean that you can use all of the hero's skills. The power of the heroic bloodline also has its strengths and weaknesses, ranging from E to S grade, with S being the legendary grade.
The higher the rank, the stronger the blood power of the trialist, and the more skills they can master.
Generally, E-rank Bloodline Power inheritors have only initially grasped the power of the inherited hero and will exhibit some of their characteristics in battle, but do not yet possess the ability to control the hero's skills. D-rank Bloodline Power inheritors can gradually grasp a single hero skill as their own bloodline power is refined and strengthened. Similarly, a successful trial warrior who has unlocked the innate heroic bloodline can only cast all the skills of the inherited hero after raising their bloodline inheritance power to A-rank.
As for the S-level bloodline power inheritors, they are legendary extreme strongmen. Even among the top ten masters of the Blood Moon City, none have reached this level. The S-level bloodline power inheritors have thoroughly grasped and controlled the heroic essence, even transcending it. They can completely hold their own against a true hero, and it's not unreasonable to say they are the incarnations of certain DOTA heroes.
But the Extreme Path's strong are just a legend, can be seen but not reached. In the Blood Moon City's trial circle of strong, most people have managed to successfully open their innate heroic bloodline with great difficulty and are working hard to improve and refine their bloodline heritage power, in order to comprehend and cast more heroic skills, and increase their combat strength.
Like Snake Man and Ice Blade, they are E-class bloodline power inheritors. Although when attacking, they can already attach certain heroic power attributes, but it is still a distance from truly understanding and mastering a heroic skill. And the reason why Hanyou can make Snake Man fearful is because she is a D-class bloodline power inheritor, who has mastered a heroic skill, and her strength also surpasses his, so he naturally does not dare to easily offend her.
However, the first hero skill that Hanyou mastered was Feng Xingzhe's Strong Strike. To cast the Wind Step skill, she had to raise her Blood Pulse Power to at least C-level, which was also why she refused to be a meat shield before - not because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't.
Of course, Huan Yu didn't explain the reason in detail, because the above information has involved many secrets, and only those who have successfully opened the trial of the talented hero bloodline are qualified to know. As for Huan Yu, she won't say it, let alone the selfish snake man and the cold-blooded ice knife.
Everyone was confused and had a hard time understanding why, after successfully unlocking the Hero's Bloodline, they couldn't even use their hero skills. In their minds, once they unlocked the Hero's Bloodline, they would completely become the embodiment of a hero... But no matter what, they also realized that Huan Yu wasn't intentionally making excuses, but actually didn't have the ability to be an MT.
Only Su Hong blended in behind the crowd, lowering his head, and a hint of uncontrollable excitement flashed in his eyes. Previously, when choosing to forcibly open the heroic bloodline of Tian Xian, he always felt that the reward given by the Dominator should not be so simple, and there must be some benefits that he could not think of. However, since there was no one around him who had truly opened the heroic bloodline, he had no way to compare for the time being. But now, after hearing the information vaguely revealed by Han Yu, he finally came to his senses and knew that he had inadvertently obtained an unimaginable great benefit.
One Power Seed, seemingly a consolation prize for failing to forcibly activate the Hero's Bloodline talent, but Su Hong only now truly appreciates the value of this Power Seed, precisely because with it, he can gradually unlock and use various heroic skills of the Divine Warrior Hasca.
Although he didn't know how all of this came to be or what the master's intentions were, there was one thing that Su Hong was clearer about than anyone else: from the very beginning, he had walked a path that was vastly different from those of ordinary Bloodline Inheritors.
Perhaps the hero skills awakened by the power seed are a bit weak, far from reaching the true power of the hero skills, but all this can be slowly made up for as the physical quality is enhanced, especially with the improvement of the main strength attribute, Su Hong believes that he can finally exert the true power of these hero skills.
In other words, as long as Su Hong continues on this path, there is a high probability that he will grasp the entirety of the Divine Spirit Warrior's heroic skills in the near future, without needing to wait for his bloodline power to be refined to A-level. This is where the true value of the Power Seed lies.
Happiness came too suddenly, Su Hong took a deep breath, and with great difficulty calmed down the excitement and agitation in her heart, regaining her composure.
But Su Hong did not become complacent, because he deeply knew that his strength was still far from those who truly tried to be strong, and a power seed only gave him an opportunity to catch up with the real strong people, whether he could successfully break through in the future still depended on his own efforts.
Slowly lifting her head, Su Hong's eyes had already regained their clarity and she didn't think about anything else, but quickly analyzed the current battle situation. Although the super fierce beast Adalog was severely injured, the current situation was not optimistic. It was necessary for someone to stand up and act as a tank to block Adalog's frantic attacks.
"Three successful trial strongmen who opened the heroic bloodline talent, for various reasons, cannot serve as MT, so the remaining people can barely serve as a meat shield?" Su Hong thought to himself.
As expected, just as Su Hong had thought, Ice Blade pondered for a moment before pointing at Zhang Qiang in the crowd and commanding: "You come be the MT and take all the hate."
"Me?" Zhang Qiang's face suddenly changed, turning pale as a sheet.
