Act I: After the End
After the end of the first act
If you follow the straight central trade route of the continent, past the towering Giant's Mountains, past the sparsely populated Okina Valley, the weary traveler will finally find a new expanse after passing through the hills dotted with the borders of the Flannian Empire—the Bay of Western Jewels. The invincible Nairs created a glorious civilization here in the distant past, and after the collapse of the ancient civilization and the multiplication of ignorant people, the famous Lionheart and his knights created a great empire that spanned the entire western seas, the Flanian Empire, which completely established its hegemony in the western frontier after ending a hundred years of war with the Arcane Empire.
The warm breeze of early summer blows through the grassland from time to time, and the leisurely figure of the falcon in the sky is almost obscured by the clouds near and far. At a bird's-eye view of the vast Jewel Bay Plains, the falcon's sharp vertical pupils made it easy to see a galloping horse on the official road, and a rather tired rider on it.
- Su Chen never thought that he would ride a horse for such a long time.
At this time, Su Chen was looking out on the straight central trade road, and the towering walls of the most famous city in the western bay, the city of Kasong, called the 'Pearl of the West Bank', seemed to be creeping on the distant horizon like an ancient beast - even in such a distant place, he could still clearly see the outline of that city.
At this point, a week had passed since the events of the Northland Fortress had ended. He also managed to receive the Duke's commendation - a thousand gold coins. Although this is quite a lot of money, Su Chen still has a feeling of secretly crying: his 6 points of charm are really not a joke, and the reward given by the Duke of the branch for completing two heavyweight tasks in a row is only in terms of money. Of course, the Duke was not too stingy, and also gave Su Chen a space bag: this thing looked like a large backpack, but there were more things that could be contained in it than it looked.
In game terms, this backpack can hold 6 slots, while a backpack of the same size can only hold 4 slots. It's just that this backpack can't reduce the weight of the extra things inside, if it weren't for Su Chen's 12 points of strength, he would probably be crushed by this heavy backpack.
After obtaining the duke's bounty, Su Chen planned to go to the island of shipwrecks. Of course, it was affected by the magic tide, so Su Chen couldn't teleport to that place now, so he chose to teleport to a bustling city on the west coast near the bay: Kasong City. And Su Chen can also find an arcane spirit master named 'Hethera' here first, and see if he can embark on the path of an arcane spirit master.
Before he teleported, the female chief knight also came to say goodbye, and at this time, this former heroic guy looked a little sad: she lost many of her comrades in the battle to encircle Gavi Duncan, and although she finally eliminated the evil, the culprit - Gary Duncan; Countess; And the vampire queen who may have awakened has all disappeared. For the chief knight, evil has never gone away, and she still has a long way to go on the road of justice.
As for the ring that could defend against charm, the female knight chief also said that she gave it to Su Chen as a gift. Su Chen said that after crossing over, it took so long for him to obtain a defective space item and a defective magic equipment, and his misery could be said to be the lowest existence among many traversers. But he thanked the chief knight for her generosity and said goodbye to one of his few friends in the world.
"You're a good friend." "It feels very reliable, and I hope that if we have the chance, we can work together again." ”
"There will be this opportunity." Su Chen smiled and said, then he and Bruso; a teenager who has just escaped from trouble; After saying goodbye to Brusso and the others, they stepped on the teleportation array.
Then, when he came out of the teleportation node, he realized that he still had a week's journey to the city of Casson, where he wanted to go, and he had no choice but to buy a horse and go on his own.
However, after completely defeating the Vampire, he still had a lot of experience points alive, which reduced the amount of experience it took him to move from level 5 to level 6 by half: 3,000 points. As you level up in this game, it becomes more and more difficult to gain experience points. A level 1 character gains 20 XP when facing Goblins, but at level 2 it becomes 8, then 4...... Until no. So for a level 5 player, getting 3,000 XP points at once is undoubtedly a huge amount of money.
So on the way, Su Chen was snickering every time he clicked on his character interface.
At this time, as Su Chen's character level reached level 5, many changes had taken place in his character interface, the most obvious of which was his psionic part. The three-ring psionic energy can already do things that many mages can't. For example, one of the two rings of psionic energy can directly eliminate his existence from the opponent's eyes, as if there is no one there at all. And among the three rings of psychic abilities, not only can the 'time jump' that can throw the opponent directly after a few seconds, it is simply a miracle: because the psychic warlock can calmly arrange the killing move in these few seconds, and the effect is not ordinary outstanding.
At the same time, Su Chen also chose another three-ring psionic energy burst, this psionic energy looks no different from a fireball, and the damage is similar to the fireball technique, but it can choose 'strong acid; Flame; Sonic and electric shock attacks. If someone can rely on fireproof enchantments to defend against fireballs, it's hard to use the same method to fend off bursts of energy—and that's where psychic abilities are a bit more powerful than Arcane in terms of bombardment.
At the same time, Su Chen could also use psionic points to increase his psionic energy—so it was difficult for a psychic warlock to say that any psionic energy would be useless in the later stage. Because as their level increases, their psychic abilities can also increase their points to the same level as their highest level of psionic ability. This is also the biggest difference between a psychic warlock and a mage.
After all, for a mage to achieve the same effect, he needs more specializations.
Thinking of these things in his heart, Su Chen had already arrived at the city of Kasong City. Although his quest hint showed that the Heathera Spiritist lived in this city, Su Chen was still confused about how to find her.
