Chapter 20 Hidden Career Tasks
When Lei Zhen saw the Ice City Lord Sals again, it was in a living room on the second floor of the Ice City Internal Affairs Hall.
"Okay, I know you have a lot of questions, but don't worry, let me tell you a story first. After listening to the story, you will understand a lot of things," Sals stared at Lei Zhen with a majestic expression.
"Oh, City Lord, the story you are telling is that there is a great necromancer who, in order to delve into undead magic, has been cultivating for many years, and has finally spent his life on the path of enlightenment before death, and found a way to make undead creatures break through the limits. And this method is kept in that Skeletron's necklace, and that mage is your master. Lei Zhen cautiously glanced at Sals, then lowered his head and said.
"Hmm~ this... Almost... How do you know?" Sals was now embarrassed. After all, he had put on a high-ranking posture before, and he wanted to pretend to be a good force. I didn't expect this kid Lei Zhen to be so unpopular.
Lei Zhen was also embarrassed at this time, but he still said calmly: "That, at least 9 of the 10 novels are written like this....Oh, no, most of the stories told by the troubadour say so!" ”
"Alright, stinky boy! Since you're not going to listen to my nonsense, I'll make a long story short," Sals shook his head helplessly.
"First of all, the trait you awakened has indeed surpassed the legendary trait of SS and reached the god-level trait. And its appearance is indeed related to Skeletron's necklace, but the specific situation, for your safety, I can't tell you right now. ”
Lei Zhen was about to speak, but was interrupted by Sals stretching out his hand, "Continue to listen to me, you must remember the following words carefully!" Within the Empire, with the exception of Natural Awakening, all trait awakening effects are recorded by the local lord and sent to the Imperial Archives for filing. And the characteristics of your awakening, I recorded for you that it is S-class, do you understand what I mean? ”
Sals said to Lei Zhen seriously.
"You mean, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it?" Lei Zhen said to Sals with a frown.
"Not bad, smart boy! Remember, no matter who you talk about in the future, your traits will only be S-class. Now tell me about your features! Sals smiled and nodded, agreeing with what Lei Zhen said.
"Okay, my trait is called 'Undead Emperor', and you already know its level, so I won't repeat it. Let's talk about the effect of this feature in detail, which is mainly divided into three points, namely......"
At that moment, Lei Zhen explained his characteristics to Sals one by one in detail.
"Your trait may seem like a constant trait at first glance, but a closer look reveals that it's actually a growth trait that will increase as your strength increases. The most helpful thing for you right now should be an additional 5 levels of undead troops, which can be further evolved. ”
Sals paused, as if to sum up the language. "If I'm not mistaken, you should have mastered the summoning technique and the spell of summoning skeleton warriors at the full level, right?"
"How do you know!" Lei Zhen looked at Sals in surprise.
"Do you think I, the lord of the city, am blind with a team of skeletal archers in the city? Do you know that not only Ice City, but as long as it is a small city-level town, it is impossible to recruit second-level evolved soldiers? Sals glanced at Lei Zhen with disdain. Lei Zhen was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the reason to be so simple.
Ignoring Lei Zhen, Sals continued: "When you don't have a trait, you can recruit the purple elite class of skeleton archers, which shows that your summoning spell has reached level 10, and if you have the blessing of the undead emperor trait, you should be able to summon level 15 skeleton warriors, and you can even evolve to the next form and reach the red commander-level class, which is really exciting to think about!" After saying that, Sals glanced at Lei Zhen jealously.
When Lei Zhen heard the "Red Commander-level Troops", the whole person became excited. "City Lord, does that mean that all the soldiers I lead in the future can reach the red commander level?"
"Theoretically, as long as you can summon or recruit an elite class of 10 full levels, you can make them evolve. What an enviable boy! Sals sighed.
Lei Zhen no longer knows what words to use to express his feelings. Agitated? Excited? Glad? Lei Zhen didn't know how he was feeling now, but he knew that from today onwards, he could finally raise his eyebrows and never have to look at other people's faces anymore. Suddenly, Lei Zhen suddenly saw a strange smile on the corner of the Ice City Lord Sals's mouth, and he was suddenly startled.
"City Lord, I'm sorry, I'm a little carried away!" Lei Zhen hurriedly said.
"Yes, not carried away by the huge surprises, it is a material that can be made. You need to know that no matter how good your talent is, what is the use if you don't grow up. Young man, remember my phrase that keeping a low profile will allow you to live longer until your own strength has fully grown. Sals nodded and said to Lei Zhen in a serious tone.
"Thank you City Lord, Lei Zhen must keep it in mind!" Lei Zhen bowed to Sals.
"Okay, how are you there, do you have anything to ask? If you don't, you're good to go. Sals looked a little tired.
"City Lord, I still have a question."
"Say it."
Lei Zhen didn't dare to take too long, and hurried to: "I don't know why, although my characteristics have been awakened, they are still unusable, and the display is inactive." ”
"Hahahaha, you don't have to worry about this, the reason is very simple." Sals smiled heartily, "Because you don't have a career yet, you haven't fully reached the strength of the first order, and supporting death is considered a quasi-first order." So you can recruit a first-tier core class, but the trait can't be activated. Once you've successfully advanced to a first-tier class, the trait will be activated! ”
Hearing what Sals said, Lei Zhen let out a sigh of relief, so he said, "I see, thank you city lord!" Don't know where I should go to advance my career? ”
"I can advance your career, but the average ordinary profession is a bit of a waste of your talent." Sals seemed to have made up a lot of determination, and then said: "Well, since you have learned summoning yourself, I have a hidden profession here that is suitable for you, but this profession is the inheritance profession of my lineage, and it cannot be inherited by my own disciples." Sals looked into Lei Zhen's eyes and said slowly.
Lei Zhen is not a stupid person, when he heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Sals three times, "The master is above, and the apprentice is bowed!" Lei Zhen kowtowed and knelt down at this time, and from the series of conversations just now, Lei Zhen had already heard Sals's maintenance and concern for him. Lei Zhen remembered that the last person like him was his mother-in-law. Thinking of his mother-in-law, Lei Zhen's tears instantly filled his eyes.
"Okay, okay, why are you still crying!" Seeing Lei Zhen shed tears, Sals actually felt a little relieved, as if he remembered the scene when he was apprenticed.
After helping Lei Zhen up, Sals took out a scroll and said to Lei Zhen: "Although you have worshiped me as a teacher, we still have to follow the rules, if you want to change to a hidden profession, you must complete a task of the master, can you accept it?" ”
