Chapter 225: Difficulty Increases
β¦β¦
In the end, Lin Song left the mercenary hall with the hint that the task was completed, leaving only Lan Hongyi, whose face was slightly pale
Although there was no obvious overstepping of authority in the conversation, the system still caught some sensitive words and gave Lan Hongyi a slight warning.
But after this time, it is a blessing or a curse, Lan Hongyi's pale face could not hide the joy in his heart, and there was a strange light in his big eyes, and he may have the possibility of promotion.
The first round of tests is completed and is rated A+!! It only took twenty minutes, but the only thing that was a little bad was that it cost a lot of money, and these twenty minutes were simply a squeeze on the wallet, which consumed more than 70 gold.
However, Lin Song's property has already exceeded four or five hundred, and he has a lot of money, and he doesn't care about this expense at all.
However, when he saw the options for the second round of testing, this relaxed state of mind was completely destroyed.
[The second round of the promotion quest requires - timer after the quest starts, get 50 copies of Dark Iron Ore with a quality of more than 80 / Complete an epic forging (unconventional promotion is invalid) / Obtain 100 Wraith Hearts.] γ
In terms of difficulty, compared to the first round, it is simply different.
Dark Iron Ore is a high-grade material that is mostly used for gold and dark gold quality objects, and is sold in both blacksmith shops, so it is not too rare.
However, fifty servings, isn't it too much?
You must know that the official price of a dark iron ore is one gold coin, and if you have fifty copies, it is fifty gold coins.
Is it really that simple?
The quest puts forward the mineral quality requirements - more than 80, as we all know, the ore is divided into 0-100 quality, the higher up, the rarer the quantity, however, the ore obtained through the purchase, the quality is random, completely depends on the face.
People with slightly worse character, no, even if they are a normal person, have to gamble almost five times before they can make up a task item that meets the quality standards.
50X5=250γ
This figure seems to be a mockery of the system and a shortcut for rich fools.
Want to take the task easy?? Yes, then be prepared to be stabbed.
Although Lin Song has abundant capital, he is not willing to be the wronged leader, the key is that gambling on 250 ores can also see how much time is saved, this kind of money, blood loss.
Option three is not a good thing either.
What is Ghost Heart?
As the name suggests, this is a material drop unique to Wraiths.
And the probability is not bad, almost every two or three ghosts killed, you can produce a quest material.
Although the ghost has good physical resistance, it is very afraid of magic damage, and the ranks are generally distributed among the elite-bosses.
It seems like a very tempting choice.
However, in reality, this is the biggest pitfall.
The ghosts themselves, while difficult, are not a source of danger, and the real threat is where these guys are.
The place where the command-level unit 'Oneig-Spalaci' is located is not something that ordinary people can covet??
The last time Lin Song was able to retreat with his whole body, it was also because there was no large-scale slaughter of the ghosts
The needs of these hundreds of ghosts occupy almost half of the mine, and if they really want to destroy their lair, the ghost knows what will happen.
What's more, this promotion mission exists in a non-combat form, and the ghost heart appears in the test option, and there is always a feeling of being out of place, and nine times out of ten it is a hidden pit.
From the point of view, option 2 is more realistic.
Complete an epic forge?
Lin Song rubbed his chin slightly, it was obvious that this was a difficult point set by the system according to the progress of his sub-career.
As for the so-called ineffective setting of unconventional promotion, it is completely forbidden to use auxiliary means such as goblin forging tables or epic ascension gems to achieve the goal.
Is it really hard to forge epic gear?
Indeed, until now, Lin Song is still not sure to complete an independent epic construction.
One is that there is not enough energy invested in forging, and second, there are no suitable drawings.
The things he wears are either promoted through equipment essences, or promoted products from the Goblin Forge Table.
Even so, he decided to take the test.
Thanks to the last forging, he already had some guesses in his mind about the next move, and he needed to pass the verification before he could make a decision.
β¦β¦
Zhang's blacksmith shop.
Jingle Bell!!
The sound of building is endless, and at this stage, the blacksmith shop is no longer Lin Song's backyard, and a large number of players are in and out of the blacksmith shop.
The gray-clothed handymen who originally liked to chat and fart at the door were also gone, maybe because they were busy, maybe because they had other things to do, at least, in Lin Song's sight, there was no lazy person in sight.
The backyard is much cleaner than the frontyard, and most of the players who can get in it have two brushes, and few interfere with others, almost all of them are busy with their own work.
Fortunately, Blacksmith Zhang, as always, insisted on his own post, with a smooth posture and dense sweat.
After learning of Lin Song's intention, this wild woman showed a delicate side.
"In the previous room, there are other players using it, why are you in a hurry??"
Lin Song's face was slightly bitter, and he was naturally a little anxious, mainly because he was too naΓ―ve and didn't think about the actual situation of the blacksmith shop.
"I'm really in a hurry, why don't I go to Ma's Blacksmith (another one in Boulder City)?"
Zhang Ying smiled, wiped the sweat particles on his face, and clarified the truth: "It's the same everywhere, if you go through the normal procedure, you can't avoid conflicts with other players." β
"That ......"
Although Lin Song was a little uncomfortable, he had to admit that what Blacksmith Zhang said was in line with the current situation.
Wherever there is a concentration of players, there will always be competition for demand, and this will become more and more evident over time.
"I have a way to help you."
Blacksmith Zhang suddenly smiled, and his style changed abruptly.
"What ??? way"
Unexpectedly, there was still room for things to turn around, and Lin Song was a little surprised.
"Help me deliver a batch of equipment, the address is Toma Ancient Road, where the army is stationed."
"You mean to say that the army can also be forged??"
Lin Song's mind flowed, and he quickly understood what Blacksmith Zhang meant.
"Shhhh Don't say this kind of thing, I also saw that you have worked hard for our Megalith City many times, so I faintly mentioned you. β
But Lin Song still hesitated, and expressed the doubts in his heart: "The army equipment is a city guard item, will they allow me to use it?" β
"Hey!! If it were you, you don't have to worry, in this acre of three-point land, as long as it is not too strange a request, not many people will refuse you. β
Now that Blacksmith Zhang had already said such a thing, Lin Song already had a spectrum in his heart, and after hurriedly thanking him, he immediately implemented the strategic transfer.
β¦β¦
Facts have proved that Zhang Ying did not deceive herself.
When Lin Song made his intentions clear, the city guards could be said to have given the green light and expressed a strong welcome.
The lively momentum made many players stop and try to take a look.
But the people before and after the people have completely two faces, and the treatment of Lin Song has not been reflected in these players after all.
On the grounds that 'the army is heavy, idlers are not allowed to enter', all of them were expelled.
In the camp, a guard officer named Li Fan had an intimate interaction with Lin Song.
After discovering his purpose, Li Weiguan did not hesitate to accept the matter.
It's not a particularly over-the-top requirement in the first place, and it's not open to players in the military just because of security needs.
What Lin Song has done is obvious to all, whether it is in terms of authority or reason, such a small request should not be refused.
In an instant, a small shack was erected on the spot, although there is some storage, but the functional structure is not ambiguous.
In the shack, there are molds, cold water, large and small square platforms, tongs...... Everything but the kitchen sink; Outside the shack, two small teams of city guards are equipped to take turns to guard and isolate interference from the outside world.
There is also a quartermaster, always ready to provide supplies for Lin.
Lin Song was a little flattered, and hurriedly thanked him, but saw Li Weiguan waving his hand and passing it lightly.
Since he is not a hypocritical person, Lin is no longer polite, after all, he still has a task on his body, and it is time to sort it out.
Bell ......
Xu has not been in contact with forging for too long, and there were flaws in the first wave of forging, and even the threshold of dark gold has not been crossed.
Slow work produces meticulous work, and it is the right thing to correct the mentality first.
Lin Song began to take a deep breath, gradually leaving many miscellaneous matters out of his mind.
β¦β¦
In the center of the Taiming Mountains, there are shaded trees everywhere, the smallest trees can be surrounded by two or three people, and the thickest ones are like the giant pillars of the sky, on which there are verdant vines of different shapes, some bearing unknown fruits, and some dotted with faint flower buds.
In the middle of these trees, a clearing with a radius of hundreds of thousands of meters is particularly conspicuous, and there is nothing else in the clearing, only stone platforms of different sizes.
It is divided into four rings, and the outermost part is one hundred and twenty-eight dark cyan stone platforms, evenly distributed in all corners of the clearing; followed by the light purple stone platform, no more, no less, only thirty-two, larger than the dark blue stone platform; Again, dark red, eight; The center, which is dark black, seems to be able to absorb even light, and there is only one one.
Until a certain moment, the primitive tranquility of this side was broken, and under the surge of a large amount of white light, players from all over the world were all transmitted by the system to the outermost dark cyan square platform.
No more, no less, just enough to fill one hundred and twenty-eight dark cyan square platforms.
As for the grouping, of course, it was already dealt with during the teleportation, and the two hundred and fifty-six teams had their own opponents.
But there is a hidden hole in the system, and that is - there is no countdown.
In other words, the battle had already begun the moment they had just stepped on the bluestone platform!!
