Chapter 5 Choosing a Profession

After completing two more missions, Vona said to me, "You can become a civilian and choose your future career." Now let's explain to you what are the professions and the characteristics of the profession. The professions are divided into four categories: Warriors, Wanderers, Mages, and Priests. The Warrior category is divided into Warrior, Ranger, Paladin, and Berserker, the Wanderer category includes Thieves and Bards, the Mage category includes Omnimage and Mastery, the Priest category is divided into Priest, Druid, and Monk, and the classes we Dark Elves can choose from are: Warrior, Ranger, Rogue, Mighty Mage, Mastery Mage, and Priest. ”

Vona continued: "Let me tell you about the characteristics of these classes: a warrior is a fighter who is very good at using all kinds of weapons, can master all types of weapons and armor, and for a warrior, strength and constitution are its main attributes; The Ranger is a dexterous field fighter who can master the skills of all types of weapons and armor, but some skills can only be used when equipped with light armor, when engaging certain monsters, they can deal additional damage to the enemy, starting at level 4, the Ranger can cast some magic skills, for the Ranger, agility is the most important attribute, followed by strength and perception; A thief is a skilled spy or spy, good at stealth rather than relying on brute force, with special skills such as lockpicking, trap detection, stealth, etc., agility is the most important attribute of a thief; Mages are spellcasters who study the various arcane schools, cannot wear any armor, and can only wield a very small number of weapons. Intelligence is the most important attribute of a mage. There are eight factions in Arcane: Protection, Spells, Prophecy, Enchantment, Plasticity, Illusion, Necromancy, and Change. Omniscient mages can learn and use all the arcane, but there are no rewards or punishments either; Mastery mages can choose to specialize in spells of a particular faction. The Masteries corresponding to the eight Arcane factions are also known as Defenders, Spell Runners, Fortune Tellers, Sorcerers, Magicians, Illusionists, Necromancers, and Transfigurers, and each Specialization gains an additional spell slot for each level of the castable spell. Easier to succeed in learning new spells from the reels that he belongs to. However, a Master Mage will not be able to cast one or more spells from opposing factions. The priest is a clergyman who can perform divine magic, and he is also a good fighter, he must have a god of faith, follow the laws of the god he believes in and serve it, the priest obtains new magic through prayer, and perception is its main attribute. ”

"Uh...... What about the other professions? Why can't we choose? ”

Vona said disdainfully, "The bard is a clown who plays tricks, a weak and incompetent beggar; Berserkers are rude and mindless, uncivilized barbarians; The Paladins and most of the Warrior Monks are hypocritical fools, and the Druids are savages, and they are just not as bad as the Paladins and Warrior Monks. We dark elves are a powerful, graceful and proud race favored by the goddess Rose, how can we choose these classes! What more do you want to know? ”

Bards are weak and incompetent? Berserker rude and mindless? Paladins and warrior monks are hypocritical fools? Are druids savages? I don't know, but during the open beta I was a Terran Paladin, and I knew that Paladins were meant to follow order and act kindly, and if you violated the principles, you would lose your status as a Paladin at any time and become a former Paladin. Therefore, people who can insist on becoming a high-level paladin will often gain the respect and trust of most NPCs, although sometimes it is inevitable to be scolded as "stonehead" for sticking to principles, but only some NPCs with evil virtual personalities will add the prefix of "hypocrisy" to the title of paladin. It seems that the Dark Elf NPC has a peculiar concept of good and evil.

I can't choose a paladin, and I want to use my familiarity with the Paladin class during the open beta to improve my advantage in the early game. However, several important abilities of the paladin require high charisma attributes to exert their power, and this time I don't have an advantage in the charisma attribute, so even if I can choose, it is not suitable.

Why don't you become a pastor? The two professions of priest and paladin are relatively similar, both are fighters who can cast divine magic, but the priest is more focused on spellcasting, while the paladin relies more on the weapons in his hand.

"So where do I go to find someone to advance to the profession?"

"Humph! If you choose a class in the Warrior or Wanderer category, go to the arena and find a combat commander on duty; If you want to become a mage, go to the meditation room and find any sub-family mage. ”

"Then~~~ where should I go if I want to choose a priest?"

Unexpectedly, Vona screamed and said viciously: "In Demon Blade City, only the priest of Goddess Rose is allowed to exist, but Goddess Rose does not like lowly men to be her priests. You can go to any priest in the family, if you want to die! ”

The whip crackled against the ground beside me, revealing the impatience of its owner.

I thanked me and ran away.

Listening to Vonna's unkind tone, I still don't want to be a pastor.

Fighting arenas and meditation rooms, where to go?

The mage profession is actually not as bad as I said when I argued with my cousin, the reason why I am so picky about mages is to hit my cousin who likes mages, although mages are weak at the beginning, but I have 20 intelligence attributes and get weighted, and the advantages I get later are enough to make up for it. Mages have a limited number of spells per day, but compared to warriors who can fight for a long time, mages are the class that can exert their maximum power for a short period of time. For a high-level mage, with the right tactics, he can neutralize almost any enemy and deal with any situation. It's more suitable for me who is used to planning everything and then acting.

I thought as I walked to the entrance of the arena.

Say to the Dark Elves standing on duty at the entrance, "I'm going to be a warrior!" ”

Yes, although I had many advantages as a mage and it suited my personality, I ended up choosing a warrior.

The biggest reason is what my cousin said to me: "You think too much!" ”

When I was a child, because of my parents' work, I lived at my aunt's house for a long time, and was taken care of and supervised by my cousin Ling Yun, who was three years older than me. When I was a child, I was even more naughty than my cousin, and most of the troubles I caused were solved by my cousin. My cousin, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood, as long as he stands in front of me, even if his face is expressionless and he does not say anything, the evil aura emanating from his body can make the troubles chasing me retreat without a word.

For my cousin, I who supervised him was a kind brother who would both bully him and play with him; For me, my cousin, who has been taking care of me since childhood, is my protector. And the reason why I practiced martial arts also originated from the worship of my cousin. But despite my hard work, I got farther and farther away from my cousin in the martial arts. I also practiced the nameless heart recipe passed down by my grandfather, and my cousin was able to breathe out of the body for a long time, but I can only use it to breathe quickly and steadily after intense exercise. After graduating from college, he traveled all over the country, and along the way, he kicked countless halls in the name of martial arts cultivation, often defeating opponents with the martial arts that the other party was good at. I'm miscellaneous but not proficient, only Taekwondo mixed with a black belt.

When I asked my cousin for advice, my cousin said, "You're thinking too much! ”

Then he explained: "You have been smart since you were a child, and you can often easily grasp the tricks and find shortcuts, but because of this, you relax the exercise of basic skills, and what you get is only the likeness, but you can't learn the essence, which is one of them." When competing against others, you are good at finding out the opponent's weaknesses, or using tricks to lure the opponent to reveal flaws, but this can only be effective against opponents who are about the same strength as you, and useless against opponents at a higher level. Last but not least, you can come up with many ways to deal with things, but you often can't make decisions for various reasons. If the character of the little cousin Li Yan is consistent inside and out, soft-hearted, and sympathetic, you are inconsistent on the inside and outside, strong on the surface, soft-hearted, resourceful and indecisive originates from this! ”

The cousin finally said: "If you can't change this character, not only will your martial arts be affected, but your future life and career will inevitably cause mistakes." ”

I was a little apprehensive, my cousin must have known some things that I only told my friends in the past, but didn't want my family to worry about, so I had to ask, "Then what should I do?" ”

"Affection and soft-heartedness are common problems in our family, and it is impossible for you to harden your heart on this, so you have to make another plan." My cousin smiled and said, "After repeatedly weighing the gains and losses but not being able to make a decision, it's better not to think so much, just do what you want, and then talk about it." ”

Although I knew my shortcomings under my cousin's suggestion, the so-called "nature is difficult to change" is difficult to correct in reality. So, let's correct it in the game.

Therefore, I gave up the mage profession that best played to my strengths, but did not help to change my personality, and I chose the warrior profession that was best at facing the enemy head-on, so as to respond to all changes without changing and slashing again.
