Volume 2 The Empire of the Glory Chapter 15 The Four Empires of the Glory of the World

It's a continent, a round continent, like a big baked cake stuck on the endless sea, but I accidentally got a few sesame seeds scattered around the baked cake. This is a world, a world where demons and humans coexist, but humanity has always been at a disadvantage, compressed into four small kingdoms, and has to defend itself to keep these few breeding places for humans. According to legend, there is an extremely powerful demon in the center of the continent, and the power of this demon is unbelievably strong, not to mention humans, even the demons on the entire continent are not its opponents. Humans can only survive on this demon-infested continent, and in addition to their survival instinct, there is also a legend that one day a large number of adventurers will fall from the sky, and these adventurers will fight against demons and eventually win, so every city in the empire has a special building to welcome these adventurers: Yingxian Terrace. And this continent full of demons and legends is called the Yaoshi Continent.

The Frost and Fire Empire, located in the western part of the Yaoshi Continent, envelops the entire empire with a circular mountain range, and six fortress cities seal the gap in the mountain range, so as to avoid a large number of demon beasts from directly attacking the empire, leaving a relatively safe breeding ground for human beings. And there are three such empires: the Chunxi Empire, the Chiyan Empire, and the Winter Empire. The four empires are far apart, and communication can only be achieved through teleportation arrays, but this exchange is quite costly, and only when attacked by powerful demons will they send their strongest combat power to help each other through teleportation arrays.

Leaning on the mountain and the sea, the left and right are verdant, the snow peaks are like crowns, the blue waves are slightly rising, there is the city morning dew, and the towering dwells in it.

Chaolu City, one of the six fortresses of the Frost and Fire Empire, compared to other fortresses, this is more like an ordinary city, the reason is that the defense object of Chaolu City is the demon beast in the boundless sea in the west, and the demon in the sea is relatively weak, and because the demon beast is aquatic, the desire to go ashore is not large, and it is not as strong and frequent as the land demon beast to attack the city.

Today's wind and the sun are warm, today the morning glow is full, and today is destined to be a day worth remembering in the history of the Yaoshi Continent, because a legend has become a reality today. When the first white light fell on the Yingxian platform, when the first adventurer walked out of the Yingxian platform, when the adventurer told the guards of Chaolu City their identity and number, the whole city was jubilant. The same situation also appeared in other cities and other empires at the same time, and the history of the Yaoshi Continent opened a new chapter.

Walking out of the Yingxian Terrace, Zhang Wangxi felt that the gazes cast by those NPCs were all filled with unusual enthusiasm and hope, and all the players who walked out of the Novice Village and came to Chaolu City like him received such courtesy. Under the guidance of the guards, he came to the mage tower, because he had the title of a beginner on his head, and he knew at a glance that he was a mage. Naturally, other professions also have their own places, the gathering place of the warrior profession is the Mercenary Association, the medical profession goes to the Guangjitang, and the spiritual profession has to report to the Secret Law Pavilion, and the non-combat profession also has their place, that is, the Craftsman's Workshop.

The Mage Tower is not only one tower, the front is a building with pillars and cornices, high windows and wide doors, magnificent and magnificent, and a towering stone tower is exposed at the back, which is bright and black throughout, giving people a solid feeling when they look at it.

My name is Zhang Qihang, and I'm in charge of receiving all the adventurer mages. A young man with a slightly chubby figure and a red face saw Zhang Wangxi walking into the Mage Tower, and immediately stepped forward with his name on his head: Receiving the Messenger - Zhang Qihang.

"Yes, yes, I don't know what I can do now?" Zhang Wangxi is still confused, he has played a lot of games and has never seen such an enthusiastic NPC, the NPC in those games in the past is either a wood carved face, or he instructs you to do this and that, and the NPCs in this other world are really polite.

"Adventurer Mage, Mr. Xi Wang, in order to help you adapt to the mage profession as soon as possible, we have provided you with the following services. Fat Qihang said, raised his hand, and a curtain of light appeared in front of Zhang Wangxi's eyes, listing the services provided by the Mage Tower:

1. Read a brief history of the continent.

2. Claim the Mage Outfit.

3. Mage skill guidance.

4. Mage Career Assessment.

5. Acquisition of spiritual items

6. Mage quest release.

7. Mage equipment building.

Zhang Wangxi first chose "Reading a Brief History of the Continent", and suddenly a text appeared, describing the current basic situation of the entire Yaoshi Continent, as well as some important legends, and finally a map of the continent, but the map only showed the four empires and a small area around them, and the rest of the place was blank.

No matter what the game,It's very important to understand the game's settings and information first.,The metamorphosis of this game is that there is no information outside the game to understand.,You can only explore it yourself.,So you can't let go of any information that understands this game that you have to play.,So that there won't be the kind of situation where you're chased by NPCs just because you killed a chicken in the game.。 From the "A Brief History of the Continent", Zhang Wangxi knew that his future opponents should be those demon beasts and demons, and some demons were extremely powerful, and the ultimate target should be the extremely powerful demon who didn't even know the name.

The map of the Yaoshi Continent is even more interesting, the area of the four empires in the map is very small, only accounting for a very small part of the entire continent and are all located on the edge of the continent, if the proportion of this map is correct, the total area of the four empires is probably only one thousandth of the entire continent, and these four empires are evenly distributed in the four corners of the continent. It's a problem for empires to know each other's existence under the watchful eye of demons.,But the reality is that there are teleportation arrays between them that can communicate with each other.,I don't know if this is a bug in the game design or something else.。

After reading the introduction, Zhang Wangxi chose to receive the mage suit, wanting to see what he could get, when Zhang Qihang's voice came: "The beginner's suit is here." I saw Zhang Qihang holding a stack of clothes, with a pair of shoes on it, Zhang Wangxi stretched out his hand to take it, and the system prompt came: Congratulations on getting the silk robe, congratulations on you or the silk hat, congratulations on getting the silk boots.

Not to mention, Zhang Wangxi first put three pieces of equipment on his body, and he didn't even look at the attributes, he only had a cloth robe on his body before, and he felt really frustrated, especially since he entered the game, he has been barefoot, although there are no thorns, stones and other things in the game, but for a normal person who lives in a human society with a high level of civilization, it is always uncomfortable to be a "barefoot fairy".

After putting on the equipment, Zhang Wangxi checked the attributes: silk robe, quality: excellent. Woven from spell-blessed silk, it looks gorgeous and comfortable to wear, providing some physical and magical defense. Additional Attributes: Increases Wood Spell Resistance by 10%.

Silk magic hat, quality: excellent. Woven using silk blessed with spells, it has a gorgeous appearance, is comfortable to wear, and provides a certain amount of spiritual defense. Additional Attributes: Increases Water Spell Resistance by 10%.

Silk Law Boots: Quality: Excellent. Woven using spell-blessed silk, it has a gorgeous appearance, is comfortable to wear, and provides a certain amount of movement speed. Additional attribute: Movement speed is increased by an additional 10%.

After reading the equipment attributes, Zhang Wangxi was very satisfied, these pieces of equipment can finally be seen to be a mage when they put on the appearance, and it is excellent equipment, and it also has attributes, these pieces of equipment also prove a point, that is, the equipment in this game has no basic attributes, all of which are expressed in vague words such as weak, certain, and strong, and it's right to think about it, for a high-simulation virtual game, it doesn't seem to be good to use hard numerical expressions, whether it's a person or a monster, its state is always changing, and the fuzzy mark is more real. The fly in the ointment is that I didn't give a magic staff, and I had to use the willow cane that was peeled and waxed and bent in a circle, but fortunately, everyone was the same, not to mention the second brother.

Looking at the curtain again, Zhang Wangxi chose "Mage Skill Guidance", and Zhang Qihang's voice came again: "Please go to the Mage Tower to find a skill mentor for help." ”

Zhang Wangxi didn't move, and then chose "Mage Skill Assessment", "Please go to the backyard of the Mage Tower to find a skill evaluator for help." It was Zhang Qihang's voice again.

Continue to choose, this time it's "Magic Item Acquisition", "Just look for me." "It's still Zhang Qihang, but this time a trading window popped up, waiting for Zhang Wangxi to put things up. Zhang Wangxi wanted to throw the wooden sword and cloth robe on it, but found that he couldn't put it on at all! Well, people don't collect garbage. I thought about it and took off the silk magic hat and threw it on.,Well,This time, there's it.,0 spirit coins.,That's right.,People just gave it to you.,You want to exchange it for money.,What's the trouble?When I was in the novice village, I thought there was no such thing as currency in this game.,I didn't expect it to appear here.,It seems that no money is really impossible.。

Take back the mage hat and put it back on, this time it is "mage mission released", and a window pops up:

1. Sharpen your tools: Find magic materials to craft and find the "Mage Gear Builder". Quest reward, an enchanted charm.

2. Climb the floor: Advance to become a mage and find Zhang Qihang. Quest reward, a set of mage sets.

3. Rating: Find the "Evaluator" to test the current level. Task rewards, which will be rewarded according to the test results.

Needless to say, the last "mage equipment building" must be you looking for materials, and the mage equipment builder will build equipment for you, of course, you have to pay, here it is the spirit coin. clicked on it, and sure enough, Zhang Qihang's answer was the same as he imagined, and he listed the materials for building the currently available equipment.

Looking at the task bar, the task that can be completed at the moment is to go to the skill evaluator to evaluate the level, although the evaluation itself is useless, but for the sake of rewards, you have to test it, right?

Walking through a doorway to the black tower, Zhang Wangxi found a street sign with the names of various areas, but none of them pointed to the inside of the mage tower. I saw that the tower door was closed and empty, and I thought that I couldn't get in at the moment. Turn right and follow the directions of the street sign to a small courtyard, and there is a sign hanging on the side of the courtyard gate: Measuring Court. Walking in, a huge white jade stone wall was particularly conspicuous, and an old man stood in front of the stone wall, with his name on his head: Archmage - Wu Keliang.

Seeing Zhang Wangxi come in, Master Wu didn't bother to speak, and nodded towards the white jade stone wall, Zhang Wangxi noticed that the stone wall was not smooth, but was covered with circles of concentric circles, like an arrow target, but the number of circles was much more, and the size was much larger, thinking that he was going to attack this target.

Zhang Wangxi didn't bother to speak, he had already wanted to go outside to fight monsters to make money and get equipment, and he wouldn't have bothered to do the task if he didn't want to know about the game. The staff waved, and a big fireball smashed into the white jade target, "bang", the stone wall did not move at all, but the circle with the same scale in the middle lit up two, Zhang Wangxi was greatly disappointed, he didn't expect to only light up two circles, and he knew that the more circles lit up, the better, so he summoned up a continuous fireball of spiritual power to bombard the stone wall. "Bang, bang, bang......" The continuous explosion came, and the stone wall was still the same, but the scale lit up was one more circle, and I wanted to use the fireball spell again, but the spiritual power value had bottomed out, and the spells on the skill bar had all turned gray and could no longer be used.

glanced back at Wu Keliang, but found that there was a trace of surprise on his face, but it was just a flash and he returned to his unapproachable expression, Zhang Wangxi walked over and smiled at him.

"Third Order" Wu Keliang didn't seem to be too lazy to say a word, but Zhang Wangxi couldn't help but be overjoyed after hearing it, if I remember correctly, each level is divided into three levels, doesn't that mean that he is already the strongest in the level of the beginner? "Take it" Wu Keliang didn't know where to take out a small porcelain bottle and threw it to Zhang Wangxi, still only using two words. Zhang Wangxi hurriedly caught it, but found that there were three big words on the bottle "Hui Ling Dan", opened the bottle and saw that there were only two in it, and then saw the attributes: Hui Ling Dan, which can restore 50% of the spiritual power of first-level professionals, and the effect of high-level occupations is decreasing.

Zhang Wangxi was sad and angry in his heart, he used up his spiritual power to complete this task, and he got two pills or just returned to full spiritual power, which was really speechless, and the only thing he got was that the title on his head had changed a little, the original person (third order).
