Chapter 2 The Idea of the First Pot of Gold

After activating the account through a series of cumbersome authentication systems, Lin Ling entered the character creation panel.

There are three factions to choose from in Eternity.

Located in the southwest of the Eternal Continent, the League of Legends has humans and elves to choose from, and the Eternal Night Council in the central basin of the Eternal Continent is the world of werewolves and vampires.

The entanglement of the three parties constitutes the magnificent history of the Eternal Continent.

Lin Ling chose the most familiar side of the League of Legends as the main camp and used human characters.

Humans do not have the same attribute advantages as other races. The advantage of this race is that it can choose a specialty as an additional specialty at birth, and gain an advantage at the start, which can be regarded as a rapid prototyping race.

Without hesitation, Lin Ling chose mage as his profession, and a row of human and mage professions that could be selected from immediately appeared in front of him.

The strongest classes in League of Legends are Warriors, Knights, and Elven Class Rangers.

The two professions of mage and priest have a certain disadvantage compared to their colleagues who belong to the Eternal Night Council and the Dungeon, which can be glimpsed in the mage specialties provided to Lin Ling.

In Eternity, for every 10 levels of a character, the character can learn a specialty. There are many sources of expertise, the most common being the general expertise provided by a career coach.

The initial first specialty often determines the future direction of the character.

Lin Ling didn't choose the mage professional specialty, the mage below level 10 had a low mana value, the types of magic they knew were few, and the mage professional expertise had a small increase in strength. He chose the racial specialty "Versatility" as his first specialty.

Ethnic Expertise: Versatile;

Limited: Human;

Description: This specialization provides an opportunity for human characters to learn a cross-career skill. Any skill learned through this specialization will be considered a native skill and can be upgraded normally, and will be affected by the professional specialty and related skills.

The versatility is a specialty that gives the human player quite a bit of variability, indirectly compensating for the disadvantage of the human character.

Once you've identified the additional specializations, it's time for character creation to reach the final step.

System prompt: Confirm your character name.

"Zero." Lin Ling pronounced out the name of the character he had used in his previous life.

System Tip: Character creation is complete, happy playing.

A holy light flashed in front of Lin Ling's eyes, and when his gaze returned to normal, the character had already appeared in the abandoned mine camp, an area equivalent to a novice village.

Dark clouds loomed over the abandoned mine camp.

A fat-headed merchant stands on a bench and sells goods loudly to players who come and go. Behind him, a mule and horse, which were used to carry goods, bowed their heads and chewed a rope made of hemp.

At the other end of the rope, the merchant's servant unwittingly tightened the rope, tied the stake, and drove it into the ground.

Hungry mules and horses bite off tight ropes. The broken rope suddenly tossed the servant who had grabbed the other part of the rope to the ground like a broken string, and the crooked tent suddenly lost its support and fell like a mountain with a thud, crushing the merchant to the ground.

The 100% degree of realism makes this drama-like scene like a living scene presented in front of Lin Ling.

Everything is no different from the real world.

He smiled slightly, summoned the character interface, and checked his attributes.

Character attributes, initial skills, and initial wealth in Eternal will be randomly generated based on faction, race, and class selection.

His current attributes are: Strength 10, Agility 10, Constitution 18, Willpower 18, Intelligence 18, and the total basic attributes are 74, which is still a little short of the full value of 80. However, the three attributes of constitution, will, and intelligence have all reached the highest values that a human can initially achieve.18

Players with less than 80 stats will be compensated by the system in terms of economy.

Lin Ling's luck was good, the system compensated him for 10 silver coins, and didn't stuff him with a bunch of rotten goods that would conflict with the early equipment.

He summons a spellbook and discovers that the initial magic he has obtained is elemental rays. A single spell that deals Cold, Fire, and Lightning damage to a single target, with a cast time of 0.5 seconds, dealing 15+Intelligence X1 damage, and randomly inflicting debuffs such as Slow, Damage Over Time, and Paralysis. The power in the early stage is good, but the disadvantage is that the mana consumption is relatively large, and the first level will consume 30 mana.

The initial upper limit of human mage is equivalent to the character's total intelligence value X10, and the initial upper health limit is also the character's overall quality value X10, which is slightly more health than his colleagues in other forces, and the mana is lower.

Lin Ling's current mana was only 180 in total, and he could only use 6 elemental rays in a row.

If you change to a Blood Mage on the side of the Council of Eternal Night, you can have up to 270 mana points in the initial 18 intelligence!

However, with such an initial "huge amount of money" as 10 silver coins, Lin Ling would certainly not be stupid enough to hang himself from a tree.

As long as it is used correctly, 10 credits can support the average player to level 10 smoothly.

But for Lin Ling, 10 silver coins were far from enough for his expenses. He is short of money, both inside and outside the game.

In life, not to mention medical expenses, just the debt of more than 300,000 yuan owed by Lin Ling's parents before they left the earth has now rolled over to more than 1 million. And in the game, hoarding supplies and acquiring equipment, which doesn't require a lot of money? So he can't squander the money like a normal player.

Every silver coin was a hope for him.

Looking at the crowded camp, Lin Ling remembered a task that theoretically had the largest investment-output ratio - the energy crisis.

The energy crisis was triggered not in the abandoned mine camps, but in the Canyon Village.

Also, Canyon Village is an ownerless free village, where every piece of land is available for sale.

As long as the prestige of the village reaches the "revered" level, it is possible to buy a piece of land there, including good arable land.

In the early stage, even if only medicinal herbs were grown, the output of a piece of land was enough to relieve Lin Ling's economic pressure. He wandered around the abandoned mine camp and spent 50 copper coins to buy a mana crystal from a player's stall that wasn't worth that much money at allβ€”the mission objective of the Energy Crisis!

Before walking out of the abandoned mine camp, Lin Ling glanced back nervously. Luckily, a Level 1 mage's actions weren't too noticeable, and it would be a problem if a thief who had learned to stealth sneak up on him.

Canyon Village is surrounded by a level 20 or so mission area, and the road leading from the abandoned mine camp to Canyon Village is full of Swan Castle rebels.

These rebels also set up tax cards on the road, and when they saw Lin Ling coming, a Swan Castle rebel guard alertly drew his sword and stopped him: "Stop, mage, you are not allowed to pass through here." ”

System Prompt: You have been stopped by the rebels.

"Damn."

If it weren't for hearing the system prompt, Lin Ling would have almost forgotten that the rebels in Swan Castle had a tradition of passing by and plucking their feathers.

This is why the "Energy Crisis" is only a task with the largest investment-output ratio in theory, and the Wolfstein Castle rebels not only collect road taxes, but also take a tenth of the tithes from each player's earnings, which is very domineering.

The Wolfstein Castle rebels are a gang of outlaws, and only those who contribute a tenth of their fortune to the rebels' professed "just cause" can safely pass through the rebels' tax cards. Otherwise, just wait for the knife.

This is too

Lin Ling was not interested in testing whether he could be slashed by the rebels a few times without dying, he thought about it, instead of being sent back to the cemetery for free and running that far again, it was better to break the bank and eliminate the disaster. Besides, with these Swan Castle rebel guards, there must not be any players who want to go to Canyon Village, right?

Lin Ling took out a silver coin as a toll and put it in a clay pot hanging in front of the tax card.

Hearing the crisp sound of silver coins colliding with clay pots, the Swan Castle rebel guard nodded and whistled.

The rebel guards at the back of the level weakly open the symbolic gate.

Lin Ling passed the checkpoint and entered the boundary of Canyon Village.

Due to the blockade of Swan Castle rebels, large areas of land outside the village of Gorge are overgrown with weeds. A middle-aged NPC was squatting on the ground repairing a dilapidated wheat field puppet, and when Lin Ling passed by him, he heard him mutter, "If only there was a mana crystal." ”

Lin Ling's mind moved, and he stepped forward and asked, "Are you looking for a mana crystal?" ”

"Yes, it's not just me who needs it, the whole Canyon Village needs that kind of glittering gadget, and we're going to have to drive these hulking wheat puppets to weed and farm, or we're going to starve to death this winter." The middle-aged NPC raised his head and looked at Lin Ling with hopeful eyes, "Young man, do you know where to find mana crystals?" ”

System prompt: whether to take the task, energy crisis.

Mission: Energy Crisis;

Description: Nongtoba wants you to bring him some mana crystals.

That's the task.
