Relationship coins

Zach can only grimace when he sees his relationship coin. He felt very rich when he had more than 20 million coins and went to buy four Creator's ships, but with the help of this insatiable little businessman, he spent around 17 million in just a few hours. He couldn't help but glare at the Sky Gnome as he carefully examined the roof after seeing Zack's face.

Zach knew he would benefit from it eventually, unless the gnomes made a mess of things, but that still left him with a bad taste. Combined with the expenses of the ships, he was almost exhausted. Of course, he can convert some relationship crystals to quickly recoup the money he spent and more, so he won't worry too much.

Then, he opened his knife window to see what it looked like.

Heavy midarm +15, stamina +10, and intelligence +5

Sharp: +10 early dexterity, +5 intelligence

Tree Early Stamina +5 and HP +10

The total stat bonus of the sword species had only doubled, but he knew it would be like this, so he wasn't disappointed. The rewards are doubled later and then peaked. Finally, if it is evolved or fused, it will get a huge boost. This time he gained +5 Strength, +5 Stamina, and +5 Intelligence, most likely due to his deep awareness of the psychological aspects of heaviness.

Again, the extra stats are just a small bonus for the system. The main impetus comes from the use in battle. Adding the power of a mid-level Daoist seed would be a considerable boost compared to the early days.

And that's not all. Zach looked at the demon and released his knife with a small smile.

"Uh...... What's wrong?" Ogras said, his face looking like he had just been bitten by a lemon. "What's wrong with your heavy knife?"

This was the last dojo he was able to launch. It looks like he can only extend it a little over two meters, but this will improve over time. At the same time, two meters is needed for hand-to-hand combat.

"I just added to the heavy side that I got from my insight," Zach said.

"It's weird. You've chosen to be emotionally heavy, don't go in too, okay? But I must admit, it's a very interesting knife seed to add to you. Ogras pondered, "If you hit someone with your dojo in battle, it would even become a mental attack rather than a normal restriction.

Everyone's knife is different. Even if heaviness is a low-level seed, it is a huge concept. Zach clearly felt at the epiphany that his present seed was just two small fragments of a larger whole. He gained a deep insight into these two parts and created his unique Dao lineage. The seed of a spike is only in addition to his current insight.

If he wanted to delve deeper into this knife, he would have to upgrade it from seed to the real knife path. He wasn't sure if he would do that, though, or try to fuse it with Sharpness earlier. In short, there is no right or wrong way, only the right and the unsuitable.

Of course, if you follow the traditional guidelines, you will have a wrong and correct choice. Sometimes, one or two parts of the knife seed usually need to correspond to the needs of the class upgrade, and the rest can be customized with some personal preference.

Obviously, there are more rigid classes where all parts need to match. In general, more specific classes and rarer classes have stricter requirements, while common classes are more forgiving.

In Zach's case, there is no road map, and he can only hope that there are some classes waiting for him at the end of the tunnel. If not, he will have to take some risks to accumulate attainments or meditate in order to gain more insight into his Tao or to gain new Taoism.

Zach just follows his heart because he doesn't have a real way to gauge what any potential class escalation entails. Through the harsh experience, he developed a deep awareness of the heavy psychological component, which he added. If he continues down this path, he may turn into a spectral axe, his blows splitting souls rather than bodies.

Suddenly, he noticed that something had fallen. Only a small group of them sat on the couch because the rest of the place was empty.

"What's going on, how long have I been out?"

"I don't know, an hour?" Ogras shrugged. "Soon after you left, they started their information session. Ever since you came out, bugs and old people have been in. We thought they would be safe after you lost your temper just now, so we stayed here. They won't tell us what we don't know. ”

Carllin nodded, looking a little bored.

"How's it going, are you done?" Zach asked, a wave of irritation coming back to his mind as he remembered his nearly emptied bank account.

"I need to resell these items first, but I'm sure I'll make it. My task is to bring my... Well, your... Money tripled, I believe it is possible. Depending on the skills of your demon craftsman, it may get higher, but they don't seem to be very skilled," Carllin said, looking a little proud.

"What are you laughing at?" "Rob me like this, and you'd better never leave your house again, or I'll find you and show you thousands of torments," Ogras growled.

"Brute," Carllin just muttered, but he winced.

"I need my relationship coins to be returned before the wave starts. "You have three days," Zach said only.

“30%。 I'll sell it to you at a discount of more than 30%. ”

Zach just stared at him for a moment, then sighed.

“50%。 Not a penny less. ”

The Sky Gnomes are torn apart, but Zach insists on reaching this level, and in the end the small merchant has to acquiesce.

After a few small talks, Zach closed his eyes again, trying to get himself to know his new seed of improvement. He was anxious to see if his system of guidance (the mastery of the axe) would be able to adapt to the new aspects of his insights, but now was not the time to start wielding the axe. He can see the path, but the others can't, so it looks like he's gone crazy and starts attacking everything around him.

The sound of the door leading to the venue woke Zach from his musings, and after a while, he saw Sajang and Ibutepu hurrying towards them.

"Ah, you're feeling better, it's so good," Mr. Zhuang said, looking relieved.

"Better?" Zach said, a little confused.

"Ah, yes, I told you not to drink so much. Ogras shook his head and said, "It's embarrassing to pass out with your idiosyncrasies."

The two seemed to be putting on a play, but he didn't know who Zack was, so he could only play along and nodded hesitantly.

"Any useful information?" Zach asked Mr. Zhuang.

"Not much, to be honest, most of them were sent by us. They released an updated version of the computer program you showed me the other day. It shows the invasion area more clearly. They also provided details of each invasion and even a case file," the fisherman replied, revealing a thick pile of papers.

They also got new information from Ibte. Still, even though they didn't mention you at all. They only said that one of the government's allies provided this information. "They never gave Port Atwood any credit," he said with a frown.

"It's okay, I'm not sharing it to get anything out of it. I just want people to be informed so they can start preparing," Zach said with a wave of his hand.

"You should care a little more in the future. This information is valuable and it will help improve our reputation. While this may not seem important, the impression that civilians have of us may become crucial in the future. If we clash with a world government, so what? Who will the people be on? The government, at least on the surface, tirelessly fights the aggressor? Or are we, the unknown forces? Ogras said.

"Okay, okay. I'll be more selfish next time. Anything else? Did they talk about portals or something?," Zach asked.

"No, but they seem to have some big plans, which they mentioned several times in their speeches. I think they'll tell us more in the last part. ”

Zach looked at the three aliens at the party and nodded.

"I'm going to the last meeting, and you're staying with these three people, Mr. Zhuang. A couple of people will come back with us, please arrange with them. They were actually growers from one of the two towns we found and could have been a great help in bringing them into our circle. ”

Soon, the break was over, and people poured into the venue again. This time there were only humans, and Zach saw some of the retinue take Ishii to the side.

He returned to his original position and nodded to Nigel, who was sitting next to Billy who was snoring. He looked at the marshals, but this time the three apparently ignored him. Unsure whether to breathe a sigh of relief or anger, he just shrugged his shoulders. Ogras's lesson is still fresh in his memory, but he knows that he still has no way to act and talk in a way that doesn't reveal anything. So he was glad he was alone.

Thomas Fisher and his team walked onto the stage, the whispers in the room subsided.

"Welcome back to the last and perhaps most important part of today's event. These people here today are an important part of the world's elite, and there are more than 20 outsiders present," Thomas said, creating some surprising noise.

"Humanity is surrounded on all sides by enemies. Let me be honest. They are stronger than us, they are more accustomed to cosmic energy, they are more cruel. In less than half a year, only twenty percent of humanity is still alive, and it does look bleak. But we are not hopeless.

"A big reason why the aggressors are rampant is that there is no concentrated and organized counterattack against them. Local troops fought valiantly, but they fought alone against an extremely powerful force. Too many brave men and women have already died in such a despicable way.

"The solution is simple. We must unite and work in unity. We may be weak alone, but together we will be strong. We've found a way to make that happen. ”

"Of course, I have healing magic. Elija replied with a smile. She wears armor and a helmet on a large table and lies on her fancy chair.

"Fucking bitch raised...... I know you can teleport what you know......" the man whispered, he stood up and walked around the table.

"I know you'll fly. Elijah rolled her eyes at his complaint.

"The height difference hurts. As he spoke, he threw a silver coin at her. She touched his armor-like abdomen and poured healing magic into his head. "Oh, my God......" he said, sitting in the chair next to her. "You did it in 10 seconds?" he asked, his spirits greatly elevated from his facial expression.

"Yes. "You're welcome. Elija said, watching Poppy heat the first pancake on the small heating tray in his hand, his magic beating beneath the metal.

"Thank you Elija. Are you really useful and would like to join our little team?, Maurice said, smelling the browning pancakes dramatically.

"You're not the first person to ask me this question. Elija said that whenever she appeared in the guild, she would think of the progress of the other adventurers, and her stomach would growl. A huge healing label that shows that she is the most useful asset at anyone's party. Those days are over. Now it's her black armor and question marks that cause this.

"Poppy is certainly a good reason to consider. She said, and looked at Morris. "On the other hand, it's more than just a few minus. ”

"We can travel all over the place, find easy jobs, kill a bunch of people, and get rich. "The war is easier. The man said, leaning back in his chair.

"Where?" Elijah asked.

"Empire, Balalya, Kroll, Nipa Empire, wherever you want to go. "I'm sure you'll love them, even in the northern plains," Morris said. ”。

"The Northern Plains? Where are they? Don't say the North. ”

"It's actually close to here. "I think these lands are part of Balalha or Asira, north of there," he said. ”。

Elija thought for a moment, then looked at him. "I want to go to the North, the real North. Cross the mountains overlooking the Navalli Forest. I wanted to go west, through the elven forest, south, into the desert, to the foundation of glass. I want to raid dungeons and fight monsters that only lore mentions. I want to go east, across oceans that have never been before. When Poppy put the first pancake on the plate, Elija said, "At least for a while, I've stopped killing people." ”。 She smiled and thanked him before she started eating.

"Of course that's a big deal. I'm sure you're not the first person to think so. Morris said, looking at her food jealously. "You're going to die, just like they used to. In a way. ”

"I can. Elija said, doubting that the man's omnipresence supported such a claim. Adam Strand arrives in the Demon Kingdom, even though she knows he's still alive. Albert saves Claes, who has some sort of teleportation at a distance, and she's sure he's been to places that no one else dares to go. Then there was Verena, another elder of the Shadow Hand, who charged at the giant demon with her fire axe. She's probably seen more than the human plains. They certainly have a lot more.

"We humans deserve to stay where we belong. Morris said when he received a pancake. He thanked Poppy and smiled as he began to eat. "That's good. ”

"We're arguing. Elija said with a sigh.

"Exactly. Maurice said with his mouth full, pointing his fork at her. She couldn't help but laugh. Sooner or later, she'd have quarreled with them, but those revenge trips have undoubtedly taken her a loss.

"I think I'll be traveling alone for a while," Elija said. ”。

"Ah, lone wolf. "Silent hunter, lonely and dangerous. Morris scoffed, laughing.

"At least I won't freeze to death just because someone touches me once. Elija retorted with a smile.

"Touch. "I'm telling you, that bitch is amazing," Morris said.

"By the way, where are the others?" Elija asked. Poppy was the one to answer.

"Still sleeping. Felicia told me that they would have a small ceremony later. She told me to burn the body.

"There's only a little bit left. Morris said with a smile. Elija didn't.
