Volume 1, On Earth, Chapter 41, The Explorer
In the early morning of the next day, Ling Hao was awakened by the air conditioner in the dormitory.
The spring and autumn climate of W City is like four seasons, with clear skies in the morning and heavy rain in the afternoon; Yesterday the short sleeves were too hot, tomorrow the jacket sweater. As early as before the freshman year, the seniors in the hometown group gave the freshmen a vaccination.
Although the deputy class is a man with five big and three rough, he is also very considerate, and a few days ago he specially told this group of uneasy young men in the class group that the air conditioner should not be turned on too low when sleeping at night.
But unfortunately, no one listened.
Ling Hao squinted his eyes, and suddenly a carp sat up from the bed. He lifted the curtain of the bed and looked to the side, the hang-up machine was next to his head, and the digital display was rightly written with the working temperature, 21 °C.
No wonder...... He scratched his hair in a daze, and subconsciously reached for his phone from under the pillow.
At 7:42 a.m., it was overcast as if it was only half past four in the morning. The rain was pouring down, and there was a faint clatter in the dormitory, as well as the hum of the air conditioner, all of which were silent and silent.
"This is the ...... the hell," Ling Hao muttered, and crawled out of bed lightly.
The dog brother in the lower bunk is forked on the bunk in a large shape, not affected by the low temperature at all, and still snoring like thunder. Half of his legs hung from the edge of the bed, just blocking the last step of the shelf bed.
Ling Hao grabbed the guardrail and tried to kick him with his foot, but the dog brother didn't move at all and didn't react. He jumped barefoot from the ladder. The only remaining drowsiness in my mind finally dissipated completely after this toss.
"Brother Ling, morning." Zhang Huanyu's whispered greeting suddenly came from behind, and Ling Hao realized what the sound of clicking and clicking had just been heard.
"Why did you wake up so early today?" He asked, somewhat curiously.
Zhang Huanyu is 302 famous, able to eat and sleep, carefree to the point that it is simply enviable.
However, the other party was wearing a thin coat that Ling Hao hung on the back of the chair, and he didn't even look back when he sat in front of the computer, and replied twice: "I'm awake." ”
Ling Hao silently glanced at the remote control that the big speaker on Gu Shaofang's desk threw there: "......"
Never mind...... If you can think of touching a coat and wearing it, you are already worthy of the brain circuit he was born with. Ling Hao walked over with his shoes speechless, and decisively raised the temperature of the air conditioner by a few degrees.
After he finished washing up and opened the game, the dormitory was finally restored to a suitable living environment for people.
"By the way, Brother Ling, I've been promoted to level fifteen!" Zhang Huanyu said proudly, obviously abused by Xie Xinge's escalation rules.
How boring it is to brush the same copy back and forth, who really knows who farms.
"It's fast!" Ling Hao moved the stool slightly to Zhang Huanyu's side, and said seriously while the character had landed, "Show me your equipment." ”
The other party opened the equipment panel according to his words, and the copy of the cold light was completely lost, and no matter what the equipment attributes were, at least the luck was quite good.
There are many players who step on the Immortal Dao Cultivator, but the equipment drop rate is not affected by this, so on paper, it will be a little more difficult for players of the two professions of Dao Cultivator and Swordsman to get together the equipment.
"It's okay, has the fifteenth level passed?" Ling Hao didn't have any high requirements for his assembly.
Anyway, it's all a copy transition now, and even if Zhang Huanyu is stupid, he knows that he needs to pile up a bunch of attack speed. As for the more refined and personalized stat requirements in terms of PVP, it's not too late to wait until level 30.
"Not yet, I'm not done yet." Zhang Huanyu pursed his lips dissatisfiedly. When the task is cleared and it is a dungeon, if all the new ones are leveled according to Xie Xinge's requirements, the player retention rate of this game will probably be ugly.
But Zhang Huanyu is an outlier, although he naturally stays a little, but because of this, he is completely beyond ordinary people in toughness. Therefore, Xie Xinge's method is indeed to teach him according to his aptitude.
"Then you go on, after clearing the fourteenth-level task, go to the fifteenth-level five-person book, and do what the heart song says." Ling Hao smiled, seeing that he was a little frustrated, he patiently comforted: "When everyone is gathered at noon, we will go to fight the ten people, and there is a world boss today." Don't worry, we started late, if we want to become a great god like Gu Shao and them, we always have to suffer a little more. ”
"Okay." Zhang Huanyu shrugged his shoulders helplessly, although he was reluctant, but he did as he was told.
Only then did Ling Hao return to his computer with peace of mind.
After a night, Mao Belly had already handed over the Double Star Youyue to the boss, and also exchanged the Golden Feather for Ling Luye's wish.
Ling Hao looked at the materials attached to this email and the huge amount of gold leaves, and his mood that was slightly irritable in the morning because of the rainy weather instantly relaxed.
In addition to the remuneration, Mao Mao also explained the next sale plan, and the first thing to bear the brunt of was the auction that Ling Hao said.
As Ling Hao thought, he picked a magic weapon with the highest attribute among the ten magic weapons and put it in the trading house, but the attribute was far higher than the current market in the fourth district.
On weekends, the 24-hour auction time is actually a bit long. Less than eight hours have passed since Mao Belly was listed for auction last night, and the auction price has changed from 5 gold leaves to 18, slightly higher than Ling Hao's estimate.
From this, you can also imagine how magnificent the private chat messages and messages should be in the hairy belly.
Originally, these things had to be handled by Ling Luye one by one, but now he can sit back and wait for the money to be collected, and I have to say that science and technology are indeed the primary productive forces. Just like they engage in machinery, mastering the core technology is the real king!
Ling Hao returned to the shore of Liuying Lake again. There were always many players around the goddess, but fortunately, the place was large enough, and the contact range of NPCs was wide enough, so Ling Luye entered the magic weapon refining interface again without much effort.
He opened his treasure bag, and the collection of materials was better than expected. Kirin blood, fire attribute. There is no doubt that the output of the World Boss must be the best rare material.
The black and white impermanence of the dull beads that fall, don't look at this bead looks gray and featureless, but it has a great origin. It is an eyeball of the ancient divine beast Chongming, a rare material with fire attribute orange.
There is also the golden-winged feather dropped by the golden-winged Dapeng bird, which is also the boss of the wild map, this material Ling Hao originally did not expect to get his hands on at this stage, so he planned to replace it with the drop of the Gang Divine Dragon, "Langji Fruit".
According to Ling Hao's previous experiments, it can be used as a substitute for wood and fire, but the attributes that are refined are a little worse in terms of numerical value, and they can't refine skill effects.
But Ling Hao's current requirements for magic weapons don't have to be so detailed. Things like skill effects have a far less impact on PVE than PVP, and with Ling Hao's game level, it is difficult to meet opponents in the ordinary area.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there will be the possibility of the birth of a new god in the new area, which is a later story. However, what I didn't expect was that my luck couldn't be stopped, and the golden winged feather was in place in one step, and the Langji fruit could naturally be packed up and thrown into the warehouse.
Ling Hao put the Qilin blood into refining, and he was inevitably a little apprehensive in his heart.
Except for the first time refining the magic weapon embryo, which is to add all the materials at one time and directly refine the mold without any other variables, the addition of all new materials after that is more particular.
Within a fixed refining time, when to add auxiliary materials, when to inject spirits, and how much to inject spirits, all of them should not be taken lightly, because the results of refining are not always in the direction that players yearn for.
Some magic weapons can be remedied if they are refined, and the state that appears is that the relevant attributes are locked and no longer take effect; And some didn't even have a chance to remedy, the entire magic weapon was scrapped directly, and all the early investment was in vain.
Therefore, although the idea of refining a cluster of flames had been brewing in Ling Hao's mind for two years, he was not sure what it would be like to actually put it into practice.
Generally speaking, each magic weapon needs to be supported by one to three so-called "body materials". In other words, there must be these materials in the materials needed for each magic weapon upgrade.
But there is no such thing as a body material for a cluster of flames. If you insist on installing a main material for it, it is a variety of top-grade fire attribute materials.
The advantage of this bold attempt is that it is very likely that the magic weapon will no longer be limited by the main material, and it is very likely that the original quality will be broken because of the materials added later.
For example, if you want to go to the Moon, your initial state is Purple and your final state is Orange, and you need to upgrade it seven times, and after Tier 5, you will reach orange quality, and eventually stop at orange.
This is because the main material is two orange qualities.
Ling Hao had experimented with a large number of blue and purple materials, and found that the rarity of the main material would limit the final quality of the magic weapon, and to some extent determine the upper limit of the magic weapon's refining.
To apply this logic, if you want to refine the magic weapon of divine product flowing gold, don't you need one or three divine materials to be the main body???
As we all know, the only output channel for divine materials is the realm of Huaxu. There are divine props in there, and being able to get one is shit luck!
As for the fact that one to three divine materials are repeatedly obtained seven, eight, or nine times, it is tantamount to a fool's dream! That's why Ling Hao came up with the idea of breaking the theory of the main material.
For this reason, he once dug deep into the source of the formation of the Immortal Magic Weapon refining system, and finally found that this system came from players during the closed beta period, rather than the official.
Does this represent such a possibility - in order to increase the success rate of magic weapon upgrading and reduce the scrapping rate of magic weapon refining failure, the predecessors deliberately created the refining method of the main material, but it also weakened the possibility of magic weapon refining, making it difficult to break through the flowing gold divine product?
In order to prove this problem, players need to master certain magic weapon refining skills, need to have a large number and variety of rare materials, and also feel extremely dissatisfied with orange quality magic weapons.
With such a favorable time and place, Ling Hao may be the only explorer on this road!
The unicorn blood was added to the magic weapon and successfully refined. Aside from the increase in stats from existing stats, no new stats appear in a cluster of flames. But Ling Hao knew very well that this was because the materials added so far were not enough to cause a qualitative change in the magic weapon.
He let out a long sigh of relief, entered the refining state again, and in the next two refining, he put in the golden wing feather and the dim bead respectively, and of course, the corresponding refining infusion, as well as the addition of regular refining materials such as mermaid tears.
The progress of magic weapon refining is 97%...... 98%…… 99%!
The magic weapon has been successfully refined!
A blue light flashed, and the original red flames in the interface had turned into two! One gold and one red, surrounded and frolicking with each other, as if there is a spirit.
Although its name is still called "A Cluster of Flames", the suffix has changed from "Fierce Heart" to "Chongming".
【A Cluster of Flames•Heavy Brightness (1st Order)】
Damage +175 (base damage)
Dexterity +25 (attack speed)
Defend +50
Root Bone +15% (Critical Strike Chance)
Root +30% (Critical Damage)
Skill Effects: None
Compared with the original magic weapon attributes, all attributes have been improved, especially the root bone has been increased by 10%, and a new root element has been added.
Ling Hao looked at his new work with satisfaction.
The crit chance bonus of magic weapons is often the focus of the player's pursuit, because there is a limit to crit. The upper limit of the critical hit attribute of the Immortal is 85%, because there are some actions that must trigger a critical hit that need to be deliberately left blank.
So the higher the crit attached to the magic weapon, the lower the critical hit required for the equipment. Overflowing critical hits can be turned into other stat bonuses through equipment refinement, which is a way for players to achieve personalized assembly.
What's more, Ling Hao didn't add any of the fire attribute materials used in the initial refining, but a cluster of flames still rose from the initial state to the first order, and the attributes were not crooked, which just showed that his idea was completely feasible.
It's just that the tip of the knife walks, and the slightest carelessness is wasted! Without the support of the main material, once Ling Hao failed to refine the magic weapon, there was no doubt that what greeted him was scrapping.
