Chapter 1: A New World
"This world is not the earth we know at all, you can see humans, dwarves, orcs, if you are lucky, you can also see legendary elves, of course, if you are unlucky, you can also see some undead, it looks like a world of Warcraft, but the most surprising thing is that they can actually sit together in a tavern!" This is what Chen Zhuo thought after waking up, Chen Zhuo was happy to activate it when he got the activation code of "Hearthstone", and as a result, it was activated in this world, and he couldn't figure out how he came here. When Chen Zhuo woke up, he found that he was already lying on the bed, with an oil lamp on the table, the furniture was all made of wood, it was very dark outside, and the moon was extremely bright. Chen Zhuo touched his head with his right hand and couldn't remember what happened, he slowly got out of bed, pushed open the door, and found himself in a very large tavern, most of the seats in it were empty, only a few people were sitting, Chen Zhuo clearly saw that the orcs were fighting with the dwarves, and it was very lively. On the contrary, several young human beings were sitting together in knightly costumes, and one of them said, "Cut, we still haven't found an employer today, let's go back!" Then they went back together. Of course, there is no shortage of a few "masters" who sit alone, as for why they are called masters, Chen Zhuo always feels that such a person who is incompatible with everyone must have unique skills.
"Yo, boy, you're awake!"
Chen Zhuo looked back and saw a dwarf uncle walking over to him with a glass of wine, "How is it?" Is it better? ”
"Huh? That, uncle, is ......."
The dwarf looked very angry when he heard Chen Zhuo call him uncle, and slapped Chen Zhuo on the head, "Call me boss!" Then the dwarf sat down in a nearby seat, "Little ghost, I saw you faint in the wilderness outside today, and I kindly brought you back, so you repay me like this?" ”
"Ahh Thank you so much! Old...... Board. Chen Zhuo listened to the dwarf's introduction before he suddenly realized, "That, boss, where is this place?" ”
"Here? This is my tavern. The dwarf looked at Chen Zhuo with disdain.
"I know this is the boss's tavern, but may I ask what kind of place is this?" Chen Zhuo said with a smile.
The dwarf leaned his head at once, but since he was very short, and sitting on a chair, he looked funny. "Ouch!" The boss touched his neck, "Hey, I said did you kid have amnesia?" Don't stand still, just sit down.
Chen Zhuo smiled after hearing this, and sat down opposite the dwarf, and the dwarf then asked, "What to drink?" I'm in for a treat. ”
"White water is fine, hehe." Chen Zhuo thought of the idea of not drinking for nothing, and smirked in his heart.
"No, I only have wine in my tavern, don't you know how to drink bar?" The dwarf looked at Chen Zhuo in surprise. Chen Zhuo hurriedly said, "Ah, let's beer, thank you boss!" ”
"Well, it's polite." The dwarf shouted at the back, "Old Nun! Have a beer! ”
After a while, the beer was brought to Chen Zhuo, and the dwarf continued, "Okay, tell me your story!" "Ahem!" Chen Zhuo took a sip of beer and choked out at once, "Boss, this wine is so bitter!" ”
"Hey, you kid can't really be a milky little kid, right? How did you get here? ”
"Well, I'm playing on the computer at home, and then I don't know what's going on here......"
"Computer?" The dwarf looked at Chen Zhuo in surprise, "What is that?" New spells? Hearing what the dwarf said, Chen Zhuo reacted, it turned out that he had crossed over, and hurriedly asked, "Boss!" I may have a problem with my memory, can the boss tell me where this is, and by the way, tell me what the world is like? ”
The dwarf's eyes widened, and it took a long time to ask, "Do you remember your name?" ”
"My surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Zhuo."
"Chen?" The dwarf glanced at Chen Zhuo meaningfully, and then said, "Chen, you really don't remember anything?" Chen Zhuo nodded, and the dwarf continued, "Since that's the case, I'll treat it as a lecture to children." First of all, we are here on the continent of Kalimdo......"
"Kalimdo !!!" Chen Zhuo shouted in shock.
"Hey, what are you shouting about, you stinky boy!"
Chen Zhuo realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly said, "Ah, I'm sorry, boss, you go on." Hehe, hehehe. ”
The dwarf took a sip of wine: "I don't know if your kid has real amnesia or fake amnesia." Where did you just go? Oh yes, this is the Hearthstone Tavern of the Kalimdor Continent......" Chen Zhuo was shocked again, Hearthstone Tavern? Could it be that this is the world of Hearthstone?
"Hey, stinky boy, are you listening!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, boss, I'm listening."
Through the dwarf's explanation, Chen Zhuo knew that this was indeed the world of Hearthstone, and most of the people in the tavern could be defined as "followers", who were looking for brave people to hire. The so-called brave is similar to the nine professions in Hearthstone, but not everyone has the talent to become a brave, generally only one person in a few thousand people may have the bloodline of a brave, and those who have a bloodline can learn skills related to their bloodline from the academy. However, it is not like in Hearthstone that you can learn all the skills by reaching level 10, and the talents are different, the degree of effort is different, and the abilities are different. In general, most of the brave people who came out of the academy were admitted by the king as escorts. The "retinue" here is not summoned by cards like in the game, the card only exists as a "notepad", the "retinue" needs to be hired in the tavern or mercenary group, and if the "retinue" dies in battle, it is really dead. And the battle here is not like in the game to sit together with cards to play, each brave with their own professional skills, when the brave graduate, the mentor will use cards to learn the skills, and the brave himself hired "entourage" to record, a card represents a war supply point, the average brave can only have a maximum of thirty supply points in their own battle bar, just like there are thirty cards in a set of cards in the game. The "retinue" in the battle bar belongs to the state of standby, as long as it enters the battle, the brave will summon time and space through its own magic, if the retinue does not die at the end of the battle, the brave will decide which retinue follows him, and the rest of the retinue return to the previous place. Generally, each Brave non-combat companion will have one to three or so non-combat supply point followers, and the Brave can follow any number of non-combat supply point followers. It's just that the retinue that has not entered the combat state cannot counterattack through the protection of the brave at the first time when it is attacked, and it cannot use its own special ability, and only the brave who has entered the combat state will restore the special ability of the retinue through the mana value of the corresponding retinue. Brave people studying in the academy must have three points of magic power to complete the graduation procedures, one magic power is called "first order", like the top guard around the king is now the seventh order.
"It's only the seventh order." Chen Zhuo looked at the dwarf and complained.
"It's only the seventh order? Do you know that there are only a few sixth-order heroes in this world? After the fourth order, it took five years for some people to upgrade to the first order, and fifty years for others! ”
"Oh, oh, I see." I didn't expect that in this world, it would be so difficult to improve my strength, "Then, why can we only summon additional followers when we enter the combat state, and how do we know that we are entering the combat state?" ”
"That's a good question! The so-called combat state is the fighting spirit! ”
"Fighting spirit?"
"Yes, two people enter a state of battle when they have a fighting spirit with each other, and I don't know why this is happening, isn't there a lot of unexplainable things in this world itself? There have been scholars who have tried to understand the mysteries of this world, but until now nothing has been known. ”
"Then, is it possible that if a brave man has always retained his fighting spirit, he can always summon his followers?"
"War spirit is a thing that has a goal, and there was once a brave man who used the method you said to make the effect that must be achieved by using magic crystals when hiring his followers, pretending to be a passive skill, although he was shocked at the time, but later I heard that he died of a violent illness that night. You can have a fighting spirit for no reason, but it should not be more than ten minutes, otherwise your vitality will start to decline, and that feeling is worse than death. The dwarf brought another glass of wine, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, when there is no will to fight, the brave has no magic power, so you need to have an entourage by your side, and then once you have a fighting will, according to the strength of the brave itself, you can instantly produce different magic powers, like that king guard, once you have a war will, he can instantly have five magic powers." After entering the combat state, generally three mana and below can produce a little bit per minute, but the third point to the fourth point of magic power takes three minutes to generate, the fourth point to the fifth point takes five minutes, the fifth point to six points take eight minutes, and the latter is more, but the speed of the process of generating magic power should be about the same, even if it is the king's guard, the speed of the first three points of magic power is also fifty seconds to produce a little, I have not seen a brave man who produces magic faster than him. ”
"Then," Chen Zhuo asked with a little excitement, "how do I know if I have the talent of a brave man?" ”
The dwarf suddenly became interested, "Yo? Do you want to be a brave too? It's easy to do, I'll show you tomorrow to identify it, but why should I help you? ”
Chen Zhuo looked at the dwarf with a profiteer's face, and said helplessly: "Boss, I don't have any money on me...... Look, how about I give you a part-time job? ”
"That's it, even if you become a brave man, you will have to work for me in the future, do you want to do it?"
"Excuse me, boss...... How long to do it? ”
"Time? As long as you don't go out of the task and don't marry a daughter-in-law, you live here, that house will be your room, okay, it's not early, you go to bed quickly, you have to get up early tomorrow! ”
"Boss, boss! Hey, how do I feel like I've been sold here! Chen Zhuo returned to his room very depressed, thinking about whether he could become a brave man and slowly fell asleep.
