Chapter 038: Lovely Stephen
"Oh my God, this clear calligraphy, this simple explanation, this unique analysis... There is such a thing in the world... This... This earth-based magic theory master! β
The fat man carefully flipped through the three pages with a pilgrimage mood, and was about to turn the fourth page when his hand reached out and covered the page that the fat man was about to turn over.
"I thought, can we talk?"
The fat man looked at Gao Duosi's playful expression, and his expression suddenly converged. He soon realizes that he has made an irreparable mistake, which is to expose his desperate desire for the original textbook of the Wild Land.
You must know that in "Breaking the Sky", the protagonist Xiao Yan fell in love with the fighting skills, and he was not in a hurry to show interest in it, but [grabbed it all over the paving, and it happened that the strange iron piece was also among them, and raised a handful of things in his hand: "Four hundred and seven, let's go together..."]
And now, I got carried away for a while, and I have shown that I am bound to win this original textbook, and the calm young man in front of me must have captured this.
It seems that it is inevitable to pay some extra price in order to get this original.
The fat man is ready to be slaughtered.
Well, as long as the bid isn't too hard ...
Just as he was expecting the worst, Gaudus said lightly: "If you are interested in it, then this book will be given to you as a personal gift." β
"What?"
"I said, I'm going to give you this book."
The ups and downs of life are so exciting, the fat mage feels like he has stepped on a trap with one foot, but the trap has become a solid ladder! He even wanted to put this original... Give it to me?
"You... Are you sure? β
Gauldos nodded.
After a short blank of brain, there was great joy, and the fat man stared at Gao Duos blankly for a long time, and then threw himself into the other party's arms with a speed that exceeded 30 points of agility! He shook the hand of Gados affectionately, and said with a smile:
"Thank you, friend, for your generosity, although you have lost a textbook, you have gained friendship! From me, Earth Mage Stephen. Kenser's friendship! β
Silently, Gaudus withdrew his hand from Stephen's hand and said, "Seriously, Mr. Stephen. To me, this book is just about the power of the 'earth element', but for you, it's very important. The beauty of a gentleman is an adult, why don't I become a gentleman? β
"The beauty of a gentleman's adult... The beauty of a gentleman's adult... Ah, the beautiful words are full of wise life philosophy, this is really a wise saying... I didn't expect you to be not only a necromancer, but also a philosopher! β
Wise... Learn... Family?
Gao Duosi's face immediately darkened a little, and for a moment it seemed to be covered with a black veil, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, I am not a philosopher, you are a philosopher, Mrs. Zun is also a philosopher, your son is also a philosopher, and your whole family is a philosopher!" β
Instead of delving further into the philosophical topic, Stephen returned to his seat and re-read the original version of The Foundations of the Earth Element, which he was already familiar with, but he read it with great relish, and uttered something like, "Wonderful! Wonderful! Praise like that.
I don't know how long it took, but I didn't know where I pulled out a stack of hardcover text picture books. Glancing at the cover, he saw that one of the books was titled "Earth Elemental Advancement I", and the author was called Flood Land. Dis.
"I finally got together a full set of study books related to the earth element, from basic, to advanced I, to advanced II, to advanced I... Hahahaha, thanks to you, my friend! Stephen held the stack of picture books and danced with joy.
Gaudos smiled and didn't speak.
"Hmm... How can I thank you? Well, in addition to the tutoring of the earth element lv1 to lv2, I can also extend the course for you... Well, to lv3, uh, how about to lv4? No, no, no, compared to your generosity, wouldn't that seem like I'm petty? β
Stephen took out 3 magic learning scrolls out of nowhere, forcibly stuffed them into Gao Duosi's hand, and said, "[Flying Sand], [Flying Stone] and [Summoning Earth Element], hehe, although I know that you are a necromancer, as long as the level is enough, you can also learn these skills." When facing an unfamiliar enemy, unleash some earth-based magic to confuse the enemy and make them mistakenly think that you are an earth mage, isn't it also a clever tactic? β
When Gao Duosi heard this, he also felt that it made sense, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes! Worthy of the wise Mr. Stephen. If you really want to thank me, then you might as well get me a copy of the [Inaugural Scroll]. β
"Inauguration scroll? Do you want to pursue a 2nd career? β
"Yes."
"What profession? Is it a combat class, or a support class? β
"Ancillary classes, arrays... Mage. β
Stephen's eager gaze calmed down instantly, he thought about it, then shook his head decisively, and said, "I'm sorry, it's too valuable... I don't have that kind of thing. β
"It's okay, it's a bit excessive... Well, then, I want to take up a combat career, [Hussar]. β
"Hussars? It's easy to do, I can buy one right now... Wait, why did you take the post of hussar? β
Gao Duosi smiled and said, "Because of interest." β
Because of interest? Stephen is not so naΓ―ve, the employment of the combat profession is related to the outcome of the battle, to life and death, to victory and defeat, because of the interest in the combat profession? This is not a surprisingly convincing reason.
"Just kidding, actually, I have my plans."
Gaudus does have his plans, as he is a veteran of Sword and Sorcery.
At that time, the 2nd anniversary of the game's launch, as players studied the game more and more deeply, the game genre also entered the "Zhuzi" era from the era of "Baijia", and some mainstream playing styles also stood out from countless genres.
One of the most popular mainstreams is the [Heavy Armor Mage] genre.
When people talk about warriors, the first impression is sword and shield heavy armor, or dual-wielding heavy armor, and when people talk about mages, the first impression is cloth armor staff.
It wasn't until a few "array mages" finally appeared in the player group that the images of warriors and mages gradually changed.
Remember? Not long ago, the old man with one-sided glasses had this conversation with Gaudos:
"The enchantment effect is essentially the operation of the magic array at work. The stronger the substrate, the higher the level of the magic array that can be carried, the greater the number, and the more powerful the enchantment effect will be. β
"I see, what is the ideal substrate?"
"In general, metals are more prevalent... Of course, there are other materials, but most of them are heavy and too rare. β
This means that heavy armor made of metal or other heavy materials can carry higher levels and a greater number of magic arrays!
This is also the reason for the popularity of the [Heavy Armor Mage] genre.
Moreover, Gaudus has seen an official promotional video, the first scene of the video is the appearance of the legendary necromancer Sandru, who wears a hideous and gorgeous full-body armor and awakens all the dead on the battlefield.
From this point of view, it seems that Sandru is also following the [Heavy Armor Mage] school.
Of course, while heavy armor has this advantage, it also has inherent disadvantages, which is that it slows down movement, attack, and cast speed, and increases the mana cost of casting, attacking, and moving.
These shortcomings can be compensated for by the enchantment effect brought by the array itself, but this is not enough, as a mage, you still need to maintain your high mobility as much as possible.
Therefore, Gaudus chose to take the second class: [Light Cavalry]. Use mounts to enhance your mobility.
After reaching level 10, the Light Cavalry will trigger two advanced options, one for the Heavy Cavalry and one for the Swift Cavalry. There is no doubt that what Gao Duos really wants to work in is the advanced class of light cavalry [heavy cavalry].
In addition, Gaudus has a piece of equipment that has unlimited potential to grow...
The Devil's Iron Skull! It's a heavily armored helmet!
This is a mysterious piece of equipment, and its mystery lies in the fact that there is no trace of this helmet even in forums or even on the entire Internet! Not at all!
It seems that it is a piece of equipment that does not exist on the continent of Acacia, it has unlimited potential, and its heavy armor characteristics are also worthy of the second class of light cavalry of Gaudus.
Still a little incredulous, Stephen said, "Are you sure, you want this?" You know, leveling up the 2nd Combat Class requires more Combat XP! And forgetting this profession also comes at a considerable cost! β
Of course, Gaudus knew this.
The so-called multi-class is that a character can have multiple professions at the same time.
Think about it, for every 1 level increase in the Necromancer level, all attributes +1, freely assignable attribute points +1, and for every 1 level increase in the light cavalry level, strength, constitution, and agility +1.
Being multi-class means more attributes.
When the multiclass setting appeared, it was accompanied by the setting of experience types.
There are two types of experience: [Combat Experience] and [Practical Experience].
Only [Combat Experience] is mentioned here.
For example, combat professions, including a vote of warriors, marksmen, assassins, mages, etc., they gain [combat experience] by learning combat theory, skills, and actual combat.
Combat experience can be used to level up the combat class. At the same time, in order to restrict players from finding a large number of new classes, the game throws out a new setting: the level of the second combat class is increased, and 200% of the combat experience is consumed.
Level 3 Combat Class Increases, Costing 300%.
And so on.
For example, if he is a Necromancer in his first combat class and a Light Cavalry in his second combat class, then in order to increase the class level of Light Cavalry, he needs to consume 200% of his combat experience.
Of course, once a new combat class is inaugurated, it is not impossible to forget, but there is some price to pay.
If you forget the 3rd combat class, you need to lower the level of the 2nd combat class by 10.
If you forget the 2nd combat class, you need to lower the level of the 1st combat class by 10.
And so on.
So Stephen repeatedly asked if Gaudus had made a decision, because his experience had always taught him that a single mage class was a better fit for Gauldos than a dual combat class. He felt that he needed to steer Gaudus on the right path as a friend.
It's just that Gaudus doesn't think so.
