"I'm going to Yangzhou City, do you know how to go?" Lin Yuanzheng remembered the agreement he had made with someone, and the current situation was best to find a place to settle down first, and then plan for other things slowly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's such a coincidence, I'm also going to Yangzhou." Xinghuo Liaoyuan patted the treasure bag behind him, "It's all full here, if you don't go to Yangzhou to deal with it, you can only rely on two hands to fight monsters in the future." ”

The Forest of the Dead doesn't seem to be very far from Yangzhou, but it is a big problem for Lin Yuanzheng, who can only rely on his own two legs.

Since those "stray cats" have horses to ride, he estimates that Spark Rebellion must also have his own mount, but perhaps in order to be able to travel with him, Spark Rebellion did not take out any treasures to travel.

After an afternoon of contact, he found that the person Spark Burning Prairie was quite strange.

Spark Liaoyuan looked very indifferent, as if he was not very interested in anything, but whatever question Lin Yuanzheng asked him, he would answer it very seriously; And he always answered very carefully, and even told Lin Yuanzheng a lot of details, for fear that he would say one or two less things about Lin Yuanzheng and suffer a detour in the future. As soon as the question was answered, he immediately said nothing and returned to his previous taciturn.

Moreover, this guy is obviously a big master, but he doesn't have a bit of arrogance or arrogance that a master should have. If Lin Yuanzheng hadn't seen him kill five opponents in a short period of time with his own eyes, I'm afraid he wouldn't have taken a second look at him even if he met him on the road.

However, thanks to the personality traits in front of Spark Liaoyuan, Lin Yuanzheng asked him a lot about the basic setting of this game world:

-- To fight monsters, you must first apply for a monster fighting permit, and the license is divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced, and each level corresponds to a wild monster with a difficulty factor. Fighting monsters beyond the license level will not only not get loot, but will also be severely punished.

Apply for a primary certificate for one tael of silver, which is valid for fifteen days; The intermediate certificate is ten taels of silver and is valid for ten days; The senior certificate is twenty taels of silver and is valid for five days.

-- After fighting the monster, you have to pay taxes, and the taxes of seventy-seven, eighty-eight add up, and it is about one-fifteenth of the income from fighting junior monsters, one-tenth of the income of intermediate monsters, and one-eighth of high-level monsters. This standard of "income income" is set by the government, and even if it is not actually sold for such a high price, it must be implemented according to the established standard. Of course, if you sell at a higher price than the stated standard, then congratulations, you have earned.

Fighting monsters on some special days, or hunting a wild monster that endangers public safety can be exempt from taxes; Having some status or special title can also reduce taxes or not pay them.

- When a player is killed by another player, they will become a monster for three days, and it will take three days before it will return to its original state. In addition to being a three-day creep, the death penalty also greatly reduces the player's original abilities. The path to improving abilities for all players is very difficult, and it is difficult to recover after their abilities are reduced.

Even if he was a hardcore master before, after dying three times in a row, he became no different from a wasted person.

- If you are killed by another player, you will be very lucky if you can turn into an animal monster, because you still have a chance to escape. If it becomes a plant monster, it can only be described as a tragic fate. If your opponent is ruthless enough, he can ravage you while you're a plant.

Of course, the chance of turning into a plant monster is very, very small. In addition, if you are killed while turning into a plant monster, you will immediately go to another random place and directly respawn as a player.

-- The quests in this world are mainly released by players to players, and the most common and main way for players to reward each other is the main way to do it. NPCs rarely release quests to the player, unless the player has a high reputation, or certain abilities are particularly strong, or the player has unique abilities, and the NPC deems them to be the only ones they can complete.

The prerequisite for taking on NPC tasks is that NPCs have enough favorability or recognition of you, as for NPC task rewards, it seems to be much more generous than what players give, of course, it depends on the specific situation.

-- Every state town regularly holds martial arts tournaments. Players who can enter the top 1,000 in the tournament can get the title of "Righteous Warrior", and when they have the title of "Righteous Warrior", they can enjoy a 10% tax deduction when they fight monsters, and they can receive a fixed salary from the state department every month to ensure their standard of living. Of course, as a corresponding obligation, once a war breaks out in the state capital or encounters a large monster invasion, the righteous warriors must immediately respond to the call to fight without conditions, and the weapons and equipment for the battle must be prepared by the players themselves.

Once you are a "righteous man", the player's personal freedom must also be restricted, and he must not leave the state city beyond a certain range, otherwise the title and all benefits will be cancelled.

The righteous soldiers who rank in the top 1,000 in the tournament are only used as reserve soldiers in the state capital, and the top 300 are standing troops, and they must often go to the state barracks; The first 100 can voluntarily become the patrol guard of the state capital, which is a bit similar to the city management; The top 10 can voluntarily become the personal guards of the state pastor, and the top three must become the "guests" of the state pastor, specializing in the secret mission of the state pastor. The identities of the top 10 will not be disclosed to the public, only each other will know.

The higher the ranking, the higher the reputation, the better the treatment, the more restrictions, and the less freedom. Especially as the top three "seat guests", you can receive the only tasks of many NPCs, and the rewards are very rich, but you basically don't have your own personal freedom, and the risk is also very large, and you will hang up if you are not careful.

- There are currently four major classes to choose from in this world: Warrior, Assassin, Archer, and Mage. After leaving the novice village, players can go to the corresponding place in the state city to apprentice, and after level 20 or 25, they can choose to advance their career:

Warriors can be advanced to swordsman, swordsman, dragon shadow (gunman), martial arts (boxer);

Assassins can be advanced to Gatekeeper, Rogue Warrior, Mai Ji (female only), and Ninja. Of course, as an Assassin, his identity is hidden, and his appearance may look like any other profession;

Shooters can be advanced to archers, concealers, and ballistas;

At present, the mage can only advance to become a spirit master, and can recall the power of the three elements: thunder, fire, and ice.

After each class progresses, it can also trigger a second level under appropriate conditions, evolving into a richer class system. Most of the secondary advanced classes are hidden, and players need to rely on their own opportunities to explore and trigger.

I heard that many secondary advanced classes are unique.

As for the skills of the class, a lot depends on the player's own talent conditions and habits, even if it is the same class, the special moves and special moves used may be completely different. Most of the skills are difficult to replicate simply and directly, and must be improved through repeated practice by the player.

- Monsters don't automatically drop finished weapons, equipment, or props, but some materials on monsters such as bones, horns, leather, or stones can be used as important materials for crafting equipment.

Fighting monsters is more about stripping the monster of its fur, flesh, or other parts and then going to the city to sell it for money.

All weapons and equipment can either be purchased directly in the city, or they can be crafted by some clever NPC foundry, although in rare cases there are also NPC quests that will be rewarded. In general, it's best to rely on your own collection of precious materials and then entrust it to a master.

"So can I choose to become a foundry?" Lin Yuanzheng asked.

"Absolutely. It's just that it takes a long time to become a good caster. ”

"How long will it take?" Lin Yuanzheng asked eagerly. In the current situation, it would be better for him to choose some good life occupations as an aid, to earn enough living expenses first, and it would be better if he could also get some equipment for himself.

"It takes at least eight years to start as an apprentice to become a qualified blacksmith. It takes about six years to grow from a qualified blacksmith to a good blacksmith, and then at least another eight years to become a good foundry. Well, it all adds up to about twenty-two years, which is the most conservative estimate. ”

"Why is it taking so long!" Lin Yuanzheng couldn't help but shouted, "Isn't it true that in other games, as long as you prepare enough materials and get the casting drawings, you can start forging equipment and weapons immediately?" ”

"But this world is completely different from other game worlds." Spark Liaoyuan helplessly spread his hands, "Other VR games are basically laymen and rookies can be quick to complete." But everything here has to start from the basics, you have to learn to master the strength of iron, you have to learn to master the heat, and then you have to be able to distinguish the texture of the metal by the color of the metal in the flame. To become a foundry, you have to learn more, you have to master the alloy ratio of different metals and something. Without twenty or thirty years of experience, you can't build a decent weapon. ”

Lin Yuanzheng's mouth opened wide and he couldn't say anything.

"In this game world, you can also choose to take the life career route. It's just that once you choose a life career, you have to give up some adventures, monster fighting, and other gameplay, in short, it is difficult to become a top master in the end - because you don't have that much time and energy. Spark Liaoyuan seemed to see Lin Yuanzheng's plan, and told him patiently and in detail.

"You must also be reminded that there is a type of player in this world who specializes in robbery, theft, murder and other crimes, some of them hide in the city, some of them hide in the wild. No matter how many crimes they commit, the system will not automatically put them in prison or exile to an isolated island. And the more notoriety some people are, the more they can receive some NPC quests, so there are many players in this world who worship power and crime, so you must be careful in the future. ”

"Finally, I would like to give you another piece of advice: it is very difficult to survive in this world on your own. The best choice is to join some powerful forces or gangs, and only by fully relying on everyone's common strength can you live safely, and then you will have a chance to develop. ”

"So why don't you choose to join a team yourself?" Lin Yuanzheng was curious now, and he could see that the spark seemed to have been alone.

Xinghuo Liaoyuan shook his head, biting his lip and never spoke again, as if Lin Yuanzheng's question touched the pain point in his heart.
