Chapter 129: Gemology

Giving the ruby necklace to Snar, Zhang Dali obtained a skill book of "Elementary Gem Identification" from Sna, which is in the same vein as Zhang Dali's primary identification technique from Hulanna. It's just that primary gem identification needs to be actively performed, while primary gem identification does not need to be actively performed, and is more like a passive skill.

In addition, the Beginner Gem Identification can only be leveled up by reading the Advanced Knowledge.

Of course, Zhang Dali has skill copying skills, as long as the level of skill copying skills increases, he can also obtain more advanced gem identification techniques through copying methods.

Players who have learned gem identification will be able to see the presence of gems at a glance. This gem can be on equipment, found in minerals, or even dropped on the side of the road.

All in all, as long as it is a gem, once it enters the eyes of players who have learned gem identification, it will directly jump into the player's mind to specific information such as name, item level, use, and attributes.

The Elementary Gem Identification Technique allows gems of all qualities below item level 20 to hide, and such a skill is equivalent to giving the player a pair of eyes to find treasures, and its value is self-evident.

To Zhang Dali's surprise, he was already full of life skills, and after reading the book at random, he actually got a systematic prompt to learn elementary gem identification.

Surprised, Zhang Dali hurriedly exhaled out of the skill bar to take a look, and found that his original gem processing skills had been transformed into gemology skills.

This skill is a gate-type skill, and like the inscription skill, it contains many branches. Among them are gemstone processing and gemstone identification.

The difference is. The Magic Scroll Crafting and Inscription Engraving skills of the Inscription skill share skill level and proficiency. But gem processing and gem identification are separate.

It is speculated that this situation will occur because of the different ways of action of the two skills, and Zhang Dali, who regrets that he can't learn such a sharp skill, can't help but be happy.

Then, Zhang Dali instantly remembered the four books that he forgot to put in the warehouse and had always been in his storage ring: "Introduction to Gem Vein Exploration", "Advanced Gem Vein Exploration", "Discussion on Gem Modeling Technology" and "Gemstone Properties".

Among these four books, except for "Introduction to Gem Vein Exploration", which has no grade limit, the other three books require 15 levels, among which "Brief Discussion on Gem Modeling Technology" and "Gem Properties" require gem processing skills to reach the intermediate level.

Zhang Dali's gem skills had reached the intermediate level, but the level had not reached level 15, so he did not go through the three books except for "Introduction to Gem Vein Exploration".

And "Introduction to Gem Vein Exploration". It was he who subconsciously decided that he needed to occupy a skill slot, so he didn't try to flip through it.

Unexpectedly learned the primary gem identification technique, thinking that the skill of gem vein exploration would definitely be incorporated into the gemological skills, Zhang Dali hurriedly took out the "Introduction to Gem Vein Exploration" from the storage ring.

After a cursory glance, Zhang Dali unsurprisingly received a system prompt to learn the skills of primary gem vein exploration.

When I called out the skill column again, I saw that sure enough, the primary gem vein exploration skill became a sub-skill of gemology.

As with Beginner Gem Identification, the Beginner Gem Vein Prospecting skill also has no proficiency, which means that it cannot be upgraded through constant use.

Unlike Beginner Gem Identification, the Beginner Gem Prospecting skill is an Action Skill. After use. The player will sense all the primary gem veins in the map of the area within 5 minutes, which will actually show the location of the veins on the area map.

Zhang Dali tried to use it. However, if you don't find any signs of primary gem veins on the map of Kozan Town, it is believed that there are no primary gem veins within the area of Kozan Town.

Unexpectedly, life skills can be multi-in-one, and Zhang Dali has greater expectations for life skills in his heart.

Shna's mission didn't end when Zhang Dali returned the ruby necklace, seeing Zhang Dali finish flipping through the books, Shna said, "Man, I still have an exclusive skill that you don't know, do you want to learn it?" ”

"What skill?" The old goblin Shna gave a lot of surprises, and Zhang Dali still had expectations for him.

"Gem grinding, a gemstone processing technique that allows you to extract magical substances such as phantom dust or pyrocrystals from the raw ore of certain gems and the residues of the raw gems left over from processing."

"Do you know the Flame Crystal?" Thinking that Zhang Dali was an ignorant countryman, Shi Na said smugly: "The fire crystallization is ......"

"I know what that is, you don't need to introduce it." Having just obtained the Soil Yao Crystal of item level 25 from the Sand Digging Mirage Leader, Zhang Dali could certainly deduce what the Fire Yao Crystal was. Interrupting Shna's words very unceremoniously, Zhang Dali said, "Just tell me what you need me to do." ”

"Ahem." Interrupted by Zhang Dali, Shi Na coughed twice in embarrassment, a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to make any gestures, he could only say with a stupid face: "I need a potion called tranquilizer." There's no such potion in Kozan, but I know where it is, and I need you to help me get it. ”

"Where do you mean?" Snar's words and deeds always made Zhang Dali reluctant to speak politely to him.

"Deep in the abandoned mines east of Kozan lives an alchemist maniac, and I think he must be there." Snarr originally wanted to remind Zhang Dali of something, but Zhang Dali's unreasonable attitude made him hold these reminders back in his stomach.

- Sna's Request 2 (Difficulty: Nightmare B): Sna asks you to go to the abandoned mines to find the master alchemist Snod, who is living in seclusion deep in the mines, and bring back the calming potion he needs. The number of participants is 1, and the current progress is 0%.

"Damn, this is trying to kill me!" Seeing that the difficulty of the task actually jumped directly from the difficulty B of request one to the difficulty of nightmare B, and directly increased the difficulty by six levels, Ben was also surprised by Zhang Dali, who was bound to obtain the extremely valuable gem grinding skill as soon as he heard it.

Although high difficulty means high reward, higher difficulty means higher probability of death, and Zhang Dali, who didn't want to die even at the moment of rushing to the level, instinctively felt a kind of rejection and fear of the difficulty of this task.

The difficulty of the Nightmare B-class mission is definitely no joke, and Zhang Dali is not so self-conscious as to think that he can safely complete the Nightmare B-class mission alone. He even felt that with his current ability, he might not be able to accomplish such a difficult task at all costs.

Fortunately, there is no time limit for this task, and knowing that no one has the ability to compete with him for this task for the time being, Zhang Dali did not plan to complete it immediately. (To be continued......)
