Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Calling up the map again, Su Wu pointed to the town built on a dry riverbed and asked, "Is it here?"
It turns out that this is the river valley town recorded in Yuan Ye's diary, which is quite close to my novice village. Link reached out to the left and pointed to a large tree next to the pillar of light, "This is it." ”
Su Wu's expression became solemn.
Link's descriptions are so vivid and vivid that it is impossible to say in such detail without personal experience. If his novice village is really in the Pillar of Earth, the only thing in it is a human being;" Child of Nature?"
Link nodded hesitantly, not understanding why Su Wu's face suddenly changed: "Is there something wrong?"
"Nature's Children are high-level NPCs that have never appeared in the game as a player's class. ”
Link doesn't think there's anything to make a fuss about: "Maybe it's like an expansion pack or patch, it's a new class." ”
"No...... You don't understand that every time you add a new class, the difficulty increases. Last time I lost two companions. ”
'Loss' means death, Link's throat was dry, and he suddenly lost the mood to ridicule.
"Originally, my idea was to meet you in the Newbie Village first, but now I have to re-plan. Su Wu moved the character to the magic circle in the corner, and then selected [Aiden City] in the long list that popped up.
He has a time limit of 10 days in the game, and asks Link to return to reality if he can't complete the basic training for a newbie during this time.
Su Wu also specially told Link that the body in the game represents the spirit, and once it is irreparably damaged, it will directly affect the ** in reality, and Yan zhòng's will even endanger his life. If there is a sudden awakening of reality, no matter where the spirit body in the illusion is, it will immediately fall into a coma, which is very dangerous. Don't set your phone, alarm clock, and don't wake up your family.
Seeing Link staring straight at the screen that had entered the teleportation mode, Su Wu explained that the only thing the computer could operate was the viewing panel and short-range teleportation, and now he was learning how to protect himself.
"There's so much to teach, I can't finish it in a while. Tomorrow is Saturday, are you still at work?" Glancing at the wall clock, Su Wu was ready to let Link stay overnight, which was only an hour's drive from the provincial capital anyway.
"I'm freelancing, huh...... Writing web novels. For Link, the biggest thing about this job is the freedom to schedule his time.
"yes, that's great. Su Wu raised his eyebrows, "It can save a lot of energy for commentary." ”
Without waiting for Link to figure out the meaning of this sentence, Su Wu asked if he had learned the skill.
Link shook his head, he hadn't had time to learn it before he could get out of the game by sleeping.
"The Child of Nature is an oracle, and the skills belong to the divine arts, and it just so happens that I am a mage, so I can help you in casting spells. "Su Wu, who has been playing for a year, can call himself an experienced veteran, and the trick he taught Link to cast spells is autosuggestion + wild imagination.
In Edgar, in order to solve the defect of not easily perceiving the elements, humans explicitly use rituals and suggestion as aids. Under the self-hypnosis of 'I can feel the elements', you can directly skip the perceptual bottleneck that plagued the mage apprentice in the early days, and directly enter the link of strengthening control.
However, that is the premise of the game, and the player is unlikely to be able to perceive the elements as written in the game or in the novel, and many law classes spend months or more on the basis of how to cast spells. Eventually, on the basis of implication, someone further clarified the step of using imagination instead of 'perceiving the elements before casting spells'.
"Do you understand?" In fact, from Link's blank expression, Su Wu also knew that he didn't understand.
"In this case, I will be more detailed. Both arcane and divine magic boil down to spells, and if you want to use spells, you have to do the most basic thing - the element of feeling, which is very difficult for modern people who receive scientific knowledge to grow up. Because in our minds we always think that fire and wind are nothing more than 'the light and heat of matter burning' and 'the horizontal motion of air and the ground'. No matter how real and incredible the game world is, the only way to break down the entrenched beliefs is to rely on stronger psychological cues. ”
Su Wu used the fireball technique as an example, and after already making the hint of 'I can feel the pulsation of the elements', he began to imagine releasing a fireball the size of a basketball, which exploded the moment it hit the target he wanted to attack. By thinking about this pattern step by step, and adding details such as 'what is the range of the attack' and 'what kind of damage will it cause', the spell that would have been impossible is completed in the process of 'thinking'.
"Is this okay?" Su Wu's explanation left Link dumbfounded. His sense of the dream game was only at the level of 'reality', but in any case, he was still a little uncomfortable with the fact that he could only rely on his imagination to complete the spell.
"Because the game itself is already an existence that science can't explain, you don't have to measure it with the original standards and common sense. In Edgar, anything is possible. Do you still remember the question of the questionnaire? Love, money, and power, as long as they are strong enough, not to mention the **3,000, knighthood and kingship, even the pursuit of eternal life and godhood can also be done. ”
"But it's just a game, not real. After saying that, Link himself was stunned. He suddenly realized that this might be the real reason why Su Wen and Yuan Ye fell into a coma. Because it is too real, people who are addicted to it would rather sleep and die in a fantasy than return to reality with nothing.
"Do you think that the world is fake in the game? Don't kid yourself, only people who are dissatisfied with reality will be chosen. Giving up half of the bed, Su Wu said that he would either squeeze in with him or go to sleep in the sand in the living room.
"It turns out that the first question of installing the game is this meaning.,But I'm now making money by writing online articles.,I can sleep until I wake up at what time I want.,It's much freer than office workers.,How can I be dissatisfied?"
Su Wu only gave the back of his head to Link's muttering, and he finally chose to sleep on the hard sand.
I thought I would toss and turn and couldn't sleep, but in fact, Link fell asleep not long after he lay down. The switch between reality and dream was just a few minutes of taking a break with his eyes closed, and when he opened his eyes again, he was back in the game. It's still the humble treehouse, and it's not much changed compared to when it was 'offline'. Not only has the accumulated dust been cleaned up, but even the low wooden stakes that were once used as chairs by Link have sprouted, and the pale green fluorescence seems to paint the entire room with a layer of green wallpaper.
The Birdman was arguing with an impatient elf when he noticed that Link was 'awake' and loudly scolded him for forcibly reading regardless of his ability, and he was in a coma for two whole days due to the excessive use of his mental power.
With such a big time difference, how can you explain to NPCs the phenomenon of waking up for ten days and sleeping for ten days in the future?
Link sat up with his head covered. Not only is the body sore and weak, but the head also hurts badly, is it really as the birdman said that he uses excessive mental power?
"Follow me rookie! You've been training for two days. Hull forcibly picked up Link and dragged him towards the top of the spacious tree.
It wasn't until he was asked to take out the inheritance that Link remembered that he seemed to be out of his hands because of his dizziness...... What should I do? After two days, will anyone pick it up?
As soon as he said that the inheritance was lost, he was immediately hit by Hull.
"Stupid! Inheritance is the embodiment of divine grace, how can it be lost. It has become a part of your body and will appear whenever you think about it. ”
Is it so magical?Link just meditated on the inheritance in his heart, and the skill book instantly appeared in his hand.
Although Su Wu had already reminded him not to use the original standard of common sense to look at the game world in his dreams, Link was still shocked. He'd seen holographic magical projections and witnessed Hull's transformation from a bird to a human, but summoning objects himself was another matter.
Is it really just a game? The sights, sounds, and even the senses of touch are the same as the real thing, and it's hard to believe that it's an illusory realm that only exists in dreams.
Link opened the legacy at Hull's urging, and the page automatically turned to the fourth page of the last view, a thin halo of light flowing on the completely dark page, and the ever-changing silhouettes of animals were faintly visible.
Well, why is this still the chapter, shouldn't it go to page five?
"Don't look at me, look at your heritage. It is the vehicle and container that conveys the power of the gods, and you must communicate with the gods by your own perception and gain recognition before you can use the corresponding power. "Hull cites himself as an example, he is a thunderbird in his body and a believer in Gaços, the god of atmosphere and thunder and lightning, and he is born to fly, while Link, as a human, must waste a spell slot if he wants to fly.
"What is a spell bit?" while asking, Link also prayed in his heart, I hope it is not a DND spell bit, it is too troublesome to memorize a spell once a day.
"Spell slots are broadly defined as the number of spells a spell a spell can be cast per day, including magicians. When you reach the cap, you can't learn new abilities, so be careful when you choose and don't be greedy to learn everything. Hull explained in detail that the spell slots of different species are also different, species such as elves and magical creatures are born with elements, the original spell slots start with ten, and dwarves and gnomes have no spell slots at all because they can't cast spells. Human beings are in the middle, neither high nor low, but the individual differences are particularly large, with only three low ones and six high ones.
Sure enough, there is no zàiBug profession, and if you are too strong, you will be restricted. Link asked weakly, "How many spell slots do I have?"
Hull gave him a blank look, "How could I possibly know about your spell bits. Try it yourself, and when you can't learn a new ability, it means your original spell slot is full. ”
The word primitive rekindled Link's hope.
Why did I forget about upgrading, spell slots can actually be increased.
Holding the skill book, he pondered what he should learn for the first skill.
This game is too dangerous, so let's learn healing first, safety first.
After careful consideration, Link chose the World of Warcraft druids he was most familiar with as the brain supplement. Thanks to Su Wu's foresight, he taught the trick of spell casting in advance, otherwise he wouldn't know how to learn skills even if he wanted to break his head now.
Following Su Wu's example, from spell effects to skill effects, Link recalled the druid's healing spells over and over again.
If it's really as miraculous as Su Wu said, I hope that the healing technique can get rid of my headache and exhaustion first......
Just as he thought so, a green light appeared out of thin air, spun around Link a few times, and the pain and fatigue that had plagued him since entering the game were all gone.
A line of words appeared on the faintly fluorescent skill book - [Healing of Nature]. The skill description is that it can eliminate abnormal states such as diseases, toxins, and curses, and has a secondary healing effect.
It really worked!
Hull breathed a sigh of relief at Link's excitement, and he nodded to the elves watching from the sidelines: "It's the Guardian." ”
The elf, whom he had met a few times but had never spoken to Link, stepped forward and smiled politely and kindly, "Hello, future guardian. I am Irees, the glow elf of the Northern Shining Forest. ”
"Uh...... Hello. "The elves with faint fluorescence like the inheritance are like the elves in the movie Lord of the Rings, noble and elegant, making it easy for people to have thoughts of being ashamed, even the coarse Link can't stand it. He nodded, asking why the Children of Nature had split into two factions to hide his uneasiness and restraint.
"The role of a child of nature is to protect nature and maintain balance. At the end of the Silver Age, with the rapid rise of human beings, they cut down forests, filled wetlands, and synthesized new organisms indiscriminately, which greatly disrupted the balance of nature, and the children of nature had serious disagreements for this. Conservatives believe that human beings should not be exterminated by radical means, while radicals feel that human beings have been detached from their original nature, and that any further existence will threaten more species. Since then, the Children of Nature have split into two factions, with the Guardians continuing to maintain the most basic ties with humanity in the spirit of tradition. The Punisher has completely cut off all contact with humans, and like all chaotic creatures, they treat humans as lower beings and slaughter them at will. ”
It was the elf Ires who solved Link's puzzles, and he also explained that because humans are naturally chaotic, most of them will become punishers even if they pass the final test. As a loyal ally of the Guardians, he volunteered to help Link train in archery, which was also instructed by the Enlightenment Mentor Hull. It is necessary to master combat skills that do not rely on divine power, so that there are other means of self-protection after the spell slots are exhausted.
Link complained bitterly, compared to the skills that can be learned by 'thinking', the physics department has to practice skills honestly and hard.
In this game world that should be considered a high magic, any novice ranger can throw off non-talent and specialize for several streets. The profession of Nature's Child seems to be able to choose skills independently across talents, but if it is miscellaneous and not refined, even if it is a dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, it is also a wastewood.
Just when all he was thinking about was that he would definitely not be able to learn the essence of elven archery as a human being, what should he do?
I haven't even thought about it, how did I learn this skill on my own?
Link scratches his head and throws the question to Hull, who is the mentor.
"Apocalypse?" Hel frowned, "It's a secondary prophecy, and when you're confused and stuck, you can ask the gods for guidance and get guidance." What are you thinking about? Three spell slots have already been used, and humans usually only have three or four spell slots, and even in exceptional cases, only five or six spell slots. In order to obtain the transformation of the core of the Child of Nature, you must have three abilities under the same talent. ”
He had long forgotten all about his transformation, and Link wanted to cry without tears.
