Chapter 32: The Old Dog and the Kitten
After talking about the attribute deviation, the old wolf began to say the third piece of advice: "Let's talk about the third one, that is: don't underestimate attacks that are less than your health!" β
As soon as Ma Le heard this, he immediately became interested, and he remembered his initial talent, which was not subject to critical attack bonuses! Since the old wolf said that you can't underestimate attacks below health, it means that some attacks will deal extra damage, and this advice is likely to have something to do with his talent!
The old wolf saw this snack with a look of anticipation, and a sense of superiority in the experience spontaneously arose, and said slowly: "Speaking of this, I have to talk about the characteristics of adventurers, I am okay for an old person, especially you young people, when you first arrived in Miracle City, you found that you have health and armor defense, and you think that you have come to the world of video games, and everything can be accurately calculated, so you think that you have high health and go to fight hard, and the result is in vain." β
"In fact, the adventurer's body does have many advantages after the initial transformation, such as the ability to resist disease and poison is greatly enhanced, and the ability to recover is far beyond that of ordinary people, etc. In addition, the physical condition is relatively stable, which can be expressed by the number jΓΉ, and it seems that many things can be calculated. But this doesn't mean that we have really become game characters, on the contrary, we are still flesh and blood, and we will still die if we are headshot, and we will also receive damage bonuses if we are damaged by various organs! β
That's what Ma Le wanted, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on with this vital damage bonus?" β
The old wolf replied: "The destruction of the adventurer's vital organs will cause additional fatal injuries, according to the importance of different organs, the fatal injuries caused are also different, generally the highest is the brain, the destruction of the brain will cause about five hundred points of fatal injury, the heart damage is generally two hundred to three hundred points, and the other organs are relatively few, generally a few to dozens of points." But even that can't be careless, because critical damage is the most powerful type of damage in Wonder City! β
"Damage type?" Ma Leqi said, and the old wolf nodded and said, "Yes, there are different types of damage caused in battle, which will cause different effects. The most common are physical damage, which calculates armor and defense, followed by spell and elemental damage, which calculates resistance, and there are many other ailments that deal damage, etc...... And the most powerful and deadly of them all, is fatal damage! There are two powerful effects for critical damage, the first is to ignore any protection resistance, as long as the damage is applied to the adventurer, the full effect will be unmitigated! Second, it directly acts on the basic life! β
"What is a base life?" Ma Le listened to the endless stream of fresh terms, and felt that the rules of Miracle City were really complicated and interlocking!
The old wolf added: "The so-called base life is the health provided by the body's attributes. Suppose you have a 10-point body and a skill that increases 200 health, then your total life is 300 points, where the base life is the 100 life points provided by the 10-point body. If you take damage, you will generally consume the 200 extra life points first, but if you take critical damage, you will skip the extra life and directly act on the base life, and the adventurer's death condition is that the base life is zero! In other words, lethal damage is equivalent to smashing the Yellow Dragon, the most efficient damage that is unstoppable! β
"So that is to say, if the body is less than fifty, no matter how high the defense is, how thick the armor is, and how high the health is, the brain will definitely die if it is exploded?" Ma Le thought of the vital attack bonus that the old wolf said just now.
The old wolf nodded: "Yes, so 60 points is a watershed, the upper limit of fatal damage to the brain is 600 points, and the body lΓ¬ reaches 60 points, which means that it will not be killed by a headshot, but even so, the brain damage will inevitably lead to a coma, and you can only wake up when the injury recovers." By the way, there are special rewards for reaching 60 stats for each item, and the sooner you reach them, the higher the rewards, and you may even get new talents, and each adventurer can only get the first two attributes...... But it's still a bit early to tell you, and you can generally reach 60 points in a single attribute before you reach the normal level, and you're already a genius. β
Ma Le nodded, isn't my heart like this, isn't I a genius? However, the dark is cool, and Ma Le still doesn't forget to ask: "So how can you cause fatal injuries?" β
The old wolf took another sip of wine, smacked his mouth and replied: "The most common method is to attack the vital point, in addition, there are very few skills and weapons that can cause fatal damage, and even if there are, they are all sky-high high-level goods, at least in the beginner and ordinary difficulties, so you don't have to think about it for the time being." β
Ma Le wanted to ask again, but the old wolf dried up the rest of the beer in one gulp, and stood up on the table: "Okay, the three pieces of advice are also finished, and finally I will give you one more sentence: Don't trust others too lightly, you are lucky to meet me who is so kind, you can't use force in Miracle City, the credit is given to me, I pat my ass and leave, what can you do?" β
Ma Le was stunned for a moment, he didn't think about it, but he had too many credits, and he felt that even if he lost 50, it was nothing...... The old wolf dusted off the dirt on his body with the appearance of a worldly master, and was about to leave, when suddenly a white hand appeared on his head, and he forced the old man back to his seat.
"Old dog, you're cheating newcomers out of credit here!" The one who spoke was a delicate short-haired girl, who looked to be in her twenties, wearing a T-shirt with cut sleeves on her upper body, fat military pants on her lower body, a belt tied around her waist, and a pistol.
"What old dog? My name is Old Wolf! The old man argued, but the girl laughed, and raised her head to the other adventurers in the bar, "Tell me, what is this old fellow's name?" β
The adventurers were chatting with each other, but after listening to the girl's call, they looked up and saw the old man, knowing that this old thing was cheating the newcomer's money again, and responded in unison with a smile: "Old ~ dog!" β
The room erupted in laughter, the old man's face turned red, and the girl turned to Ma Le, who was still a little unclear (harmonious) truth, and said, "Brother, did he tell you to look at your bones and be amazed that you will become a great weapon in the future, and I wish you a helping hand, give you three points of advice, and only charge fifty credits?" β
Ma Le nodded blankly, and the girl sighed, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Congratulations, you've been fooled!" β
"Huh? What he said was lying to me? "Ma Le didn't feel sorry for the fifty credits, and he finally took notes and wrote down a bunch of fake news, so he lost it.
"Don't be afraid, that's not it!" The girl waved her hand and explained: "What he said about real attribute fatal damage and the like is true, but this kind of thing can be found out through two worlds, and it is common knowledge in Miracle City, where to buy it with fifty credits?" β
Ma Le put his mind at ease when he heard this, and said with a smile: "That's nothing, the old-timers also said it, this thing has been known for a day, and it will be a little more safe in this dangerous world, spend money to buy experience, I think it's worth it!" Saying that, Ma Le also stood up and waved his hand at the old dog: "Senior, thank you old man!" β
The old dog laughed twice: "You doll is reasonable, for your sake, let me mention you again: don't look down on the defense elders, the tank also has a future!" β
"How?" Ma Le asked, and the old dog pretended to be mysterious: "An ant can lift something a hundred times heavier than itself, but in the eyes of people, it is still an ant, and if it is crushed, it will be crushed to death." But what if it's an iron ant? You try to grind it, and your fingers don't bleed, so you have thick skin! β
Ma Le listened thoughtfully, but the girl gently patted the old dog's head: "Don't pretend to be a master to mislead the newcomer!" Ma Le stretched out his right hand and accosted the girl with a smile: "My name is foodie, what do you call my sister?" The girl shook hands with Ma Le generously, and replied heartily: "It's good if you call me a night cat, why did you come up with a foodie name, how ugly!" β
Ma Le laughed and said: "In line with personal characteristics, if you know more about me, you will know how much I can 'eat'!" β
The girl smiled and was not pretentious, patted the old dog with her hand, and said to Ma Le: "Let me reintroduce you, this is an old dog, his hobby is to drink and cheat money, and the two of us are in the same team...... Oh yes, you're a newcomer, you may not know yet, adventurers can form a team in Miracle City, I belong to the same team called the 'Green Corps' with the old dog, and our team members are all codenamed animals, how about it, do you want to join us? We're famous for our entry-level skills! As she spoke, the girl nodded her forehead and began to name Ma Le: "You are called a foodie, so after joining us, you will be called a wild boar, or you will be called a grizzly bear, or a wild cow?" β
Facing the girl's self-acquaintance, Ma Le smiled and shirked, he didn't plan to join any team now, but he had a good conversation with the old and the young, the three of them sat at a table, Ma Le invited guests, drank for a while, and chatted about other rules in Miracle City. Ma Le benefited a lot, and the old dog and the night cat also patiently taught them, until their team came to urge them to gather, and the two were reluctant to leave.
On the first day of entering Miracle City, he made friends, Ma Le was in a good mood, left the tavern, and according to the old dog's instructions, he first went to the merit review office to upgrade his title. 48 merit points made Ma Le rise two levels in a row, from a slave to a commoner:
"Merit Points 48/50, Current Status, Commoner: You need to pay 30 credits to enter the main city of Miracle City, you can use the primary facilities, personal storage space is increased to 2 cubic meters, and you pay 100 credits tax after each mission."
After becoming a commoner, Ma Le had the qualifications to enter Miracle City, and he walked out of the slum according to the instructions of the old dog and the night cat, and walked along the avenue towards the main city of Miracle City.
