Chapter 1605: Wine Festival

There is such a thing as wine, and some people demonize it.

In fact, aside from these various constraints, there are still a lot of people who like it, and in the game, people are naturally easy to have no scruples.

Since this great festival is dedicated to celebrating the great invention of alcoholic beverages, it is natural that it will not be confined to a certain city or race, although it was originally celebrated by the dwarves, but now it is a common festival of the Alliance and the Horde, and the winemakers from all over Azeroth come together on this special day to exchange the secrets of winemaking.

Allergic to alcohol?

It's okay, you can drink with confidence in the game, and you will definitely not end up in the hospital.

Drunk and crazy?

It's okay, you can play whatever you want, anyway, this is in the game, at most you throw all the equipment on your body to the ground, cheapening others.

Don't like to drink?

If you really don't like to drink, there's nothing to say, but you always like to eat.

Although it is said to be a wine festival, how can there be no food without wine?

It is a day when all kinds of food come together, and foodies can enjoy a variety of cuisines of all ethnic groups in different places during this festival.

Don't like alcohol or food?

Then what's the point of your life!

Outside the main city, long tables are filled with fresh, frothy beers. Outside of Ironforge and Orgrimmar, players can grab a beer near the owner's booth and the owner's assistant will come up and fill it up for you. The barrels near the winery's booth are also available for casual enjoyment. At the Wine Festival, players will never have to worry about finding something to drink!

During the festival, there are festival messengers in each of the main cities to bring you to the main venue to participate in the festival celebrations.

This festival will bring you interesting items and mounts that can be used as a show off capital. Players can experience the fun of the Wine Festival through quests, get money, win Wine Festival Coins and exchange them for their favorite items.

Of course, Lu Li will not miss such a grand event, there are still a lot of good things in the wine festival, and the key is that some links have a certain probability of rewarding skill points.

Not to mention anything about other mounts, equipment, gold and the like, the mere possibility of rewarding skill points is enough to drive combat players crazy.

It is said that you can get skill points with a glass of wine.

Life players may not be so keen on any skill points, but they are in the boring production process, and if they have the opportunity to relax, they probably won't refuse.

As for casual players, they are even more lively where to go.

The appearance of such a wine festival in the game inadvertently appeals to everyone's appetite.

Lu Li is aiming at skill points.

Of course, he will not try to obtain skill points by drinking like ordinary players, and players with particularly good luck may not be able to obtain skill points by drinking, and people with particularly bad luck like him will probably not see skill points even if they drink to death.

As a respawn, a wealthy player who participated in two wine festivals.

Of course, Lu Li will not let go of this kind of national carnival festival, at least the regular tasks that ordinary people can trigger, and he knows most of them well.

The most worthwhile task is, of course, sheep racing!

Sheep racing is actually a task that all players who participate in the Wine Festival do, and the trigger rate is almost 100%.

The rules of sheep racing are also very simple, even mentally handicapped children can figure it out in a short time, if the IQ is not as good as that of mentally handicapped children, then it doesn't matter, anyway, this task can be done over and over again, not only there is no punishment, but there are rewards every time.

It's just that the reward is cheaper, and this cheap reward will become cheaper as it is repeated.

If you want to earn skill points in the sheep race, you must get a good score the first time.

In a corner outside Ironforge, Neil Ramsden, the master of sheep racing, babbles on and on about sheep racing strategies, and he has the typical beard of a dwarf, but the color of his beard is red, and this beard is thick enough to gagged him.

So, because of this big beard, the voice of Master Neil Ramsden is always unrealistic.

Some players squeezed through the crowd to listen to him, but everyone couldn't stand his spit everywhere and the strong smell of alcohol in their faces.

Please don't interrupt him and point out the inappropriateness of his voice, this irascible dwarf will kick the player out of the way, and while it won't hurt, even the thick-skinned player won't want to try it, let alone a kind of pretend to be handsome or sweet and virtuous.

Therefore, players generally don't listen to him.

Just go up and try it yourself, or watch someone else race a few laps, and you know exactly what to do.

Many good players are also happy to tell others some rules about sheep racing.

Although Lu Li had already participated in the sheep race twice, he didn't know if the rules had changed with the change of versions, so he stood quietly beside Master Neil Ramsden and listened to the rules several times.

In fact, before the actual sheep race, there will also be a small warm-up training.

Neil Ramsden will give the player a goat, which the player will climb on, and the system will ask the player to control their sheep to sprint, jog and sprint for 8 seconds each. The task hint writes the jogging state as slow walking, which is too misleading for the masses, and most players repeatedly take the task several times to figure it out.

When the player climbs on the sheep race, they will be given a rein, and if they do not make any movements, the sheep will automatically walk forward slowly; When you race the reins of the sheep once at the right point, the sheep will enter the "sprint" state, and the speed will increase; If the right reins are clicked four times in 3 seconds in the "sprint" state, the sheep will enter the "jogging" state, at which time the speed will increase again, and at the same time the fatigue value will begin to be generated; In the "jogging" state, continue to tap the reins four times in 3 seconds, and the sheep enters the final state of "sprinting", when the speed reaches the maximum and the fatigue value is generated at the highest speed.

When the fatigue level reaches a maximum of 100 points, the sheep will enter a state of exhaustion and can only move at a slower pace than a slow walking speed - slower than the Thief's Advanced Crippling Ointment.

If you want to keep the sheep in a certain state, you only need to tap the reins every 3 seconds in that state; Stopping to tap the reins at any acceleration state (sprinting, jogging, or sprinting) will return to the previous slower acceleration state until the slow walking state.

When a sheep has just returned from a faster acceleration to a nearby slower acceleration state, hold the reins once within 3 seconds to continue the acceleration state.

These skills and rules were all mastered by Lu Li in his previous life, although there was a long time apart, but as long as Lu Li recalled it, plus these dozens of seconds to verify, he quickly mastered these skills.

In addition, there are many more refined rules, which players need to study for a long time to summarize, and Lu Li has actually slowly figured it out.

For example, when "sprinting", the speed is increased by about 30% from the initial speed, which can slowly reduce the fatigue value, and when "jogging", the speed is increased by about 60%, and the fatigue value is slowly increased by 1 point per second, and in the case of "sprinting", the speed is increased by about 150%, and the fatigue value is increased at high speed by 5 points per second.

In addition to "sprinting" can reduce the fatigue value, if the sheep can eat the apples on the road (in the apple basket along the road), that is, control the sheep to contact it in the game, then the fatigue value will also be directly cleared to 0.

Eating good apples can keep you in a "sprint" state throughout the whole process!

And in the absence of an apple basket, "jogging" and "sprinting" should be the most cost-effective way to move.

When training, the goats were given by Neil Ramsden, but when you actually go to race the goats, you need to spend money to buy the goats you ride.

Pol Froststone is a dwarf, a red-bearded dwarf, a race that is said to be born with beards, even some women, and everyone has long been surprised by this.

The treacherous dwarf Pol Froststone earns forty silver coins for every male goat sold.

Nowadays, the price of gold is about 30 real coins, and 0.4 gold coins is already 12 yuan, which is already a price of one or two pirate ships or bumper cars in amusement parks.

The most hateful thing is that the male goat will only allow the player to use it for five minutes, and no one can run two races in five minutes, which means that the player can only use the goat once.

Even if the player could drive the goat into the track a second time, imagine being at the front the second time, looking like he was about to become the champion, and suddenly the goat turned around and ran to his master, and the player would die of depression.

Of course, Lu Li will not be stingy with this little money, in fact, as long as more than four-fifths of the players in the sheep race process, that is, enter the top 20, they can get a reward for returning their capital.

"Bring me a goat, thank you," Lu Li handed over forty silver coins.

"Hehe, it's a male goat or a female goat," Pol Froststone asked with a smile, this dwarf is not cute at all, and if it were a female player, he might be able to flirt.

"Male goat, thank you," Lu Li said expressionlessly.

Seeing that Lu Li didn't understand his sense of humor at all, Pol Frozen Stone could only lead a male goat to Lu Li, and also gave a whip for free, in fact, the female goat is even more beautiful, with a snow-white coat and a garland around her neck, players can choose according to their preferences.

Yan Gou will suffer a dumb loss here, because the female goat is useless, and of course she can't outrun the male goat.

The track isn't split, and you can drive the goats on a rampage through the track, so dodging the opponent's rush and driving the goats to grab the brushed apples is part of the race.
