(For Brother Raven_13 [2/5])

Hogg's Legendary Quest Chain has been dominating the forums for a few days now, and it's understandable that this is the biggest challenge ever introduced in the game, and that the goal is to target an evil god.

However, it is generally believed that the real implementation of this task chain will definitely wait until the internal test, after all, it is a bit too scary to engage in the implementation of tasks of this size just for closed testing.

But there are also rumors that I don't know where the gossip comes from, saying that the 120 players who are currently accepting the mission are not the final list, and there is an interpretation that considering that the target is an evil god, the basic strength of the players participating in the crusade battle cannot be too bad, although the completion of the Silver Trial and even the solution are still in the fog, but there are good people who have calculated a table according to the current game's power system.

Because this is supported by the professional support staff of the Riptide Knights, the format is quite beautifully produced.

They have further deepened the general "black iron/silver/gold" system of the current game, showing the player's strength enhancement curve in a more intuitive way.

This table begins with a basic concept.

That is, the level in this game is only a form of reflecting the "game qualifications", it itself does not represent the real strength, the simplest example is that level 10 can continue to level up after triggering the Black Iron Trial, but the strength between level 11 players and level 20 players cannot form a crushing force at all.

In the PVP of Fight Club, there are often cases where the level is five levels worse but still overturns.

According to the judgment of the group of "logistics personnel" who are professional in playing data, the strength improvement after the Black Iron Trial is more important to the skill, that is, the skill itself and its proficiency.

For another example, the reason why the guys who have locked the title of "Scarlet Gladiator" in the first season in advance are strong because they generally have more than six advanced skills, while ordinary players can only obtain two or three advanced skills from professional trainers step by step even after the Black Iron Trial.

Some players have poor learning skills and it takes a month to master the essentials of these advanced skills.

One of the most exaggerated is Brother Cat, who is the warrior of the tribune Kudel, and Lord Kuder also values this studious and talented foreigner, and gives him the most proud series of slashing skills he has mastered.

What disarming slash, thunder slash, ground splitting slash, whirling slash, etc., Yishui's "classical knight secret technique" has pushed Brother Cat's combat power to the point where he can already suppress Sister Pomegranate head-on.

This is also the reason why Sister Pomegranate has been seeking to join the Thorn Clan recently, and she herself is under a lot of pressure in this regard.

In short, according to the description of the power table circulating on the forum, if you want to enter the top 50 in combat power in the player group, you must reach level 20 black iron and have two combat classes, at least four core advanced combat skills, and at least one or two master-level understandings.

That's a lot of demand.

But the most perverted thing is that at present, the top 10 combat power players have at least four or more master-level comprehension skills in their hands, and it can only be said that others are enjoying the fun of the game, and these battle maniacs are desperately trying to get the upper limit.

Starting from this table, the forum also formed a unified conclusion, that is, before the final step of the legendary mission, as long as one of the 120 chosen ones can be squeezed out, they can steal their "god-killing qualifications".

In fact, ordinary players are also self-aware.

In this game so real, even if Hogg really gave them this kind of task, they didn't have the confidence to complete it, and this ghost game couldn't drag the corpse to fight a war of attrition, if you really want to kill the gods, you have to have a hard bridge and a hard horse, there is nothing to trick in.

But there's no shortage of ambitious guys among the players.

Especially with the recruitment of testers more and more widely, there are more and more "ruthless characters" in the party who appear in the forum, and a few days ago, there was a "professional" who had played an unlimited fighting match before.

The words were quite arrogant, but when I asked again, I found out that this person was specially invited by Mr. Li. And this one is just lucky to be famous, and there are quite a lot of "folk martial artists" waiting in the back.

Okay!

Teacher Li, the great grandmaster of the Shadow Trace School, thinks that the game is not lively enough, and plans to hold a "martial arts conference" in Transasia.

"Holy! How is it that in a day or two, I have 13 more prep opponents in the fight club! Am I so hated? ”

Just in front of the cave where the hunting guards were hunting, Ah Ru, who was about to start the second round of exploration, said to the car beside him with trepidation:

"How many are there to challenge you?"

"I didn't watch it, love comes, buddy, I'm not afraid of fighting, which strong person doesn't win all the way?"

Cheche is optimistic.

He was originally a young man with a big heart, and he didn't care how many people challenged him, but he still felt that this was a kind of capital worth showing off, but others were not as optimistic as him.

"I've got nine in line."

The good pigeon held his chin and sighed and said:

"Let's talk about it, how many of you are there?"

"I'm 11."

"I'm five."

"I'm TM23!"

The meow shark was about to cry, he looked at the PK appointment of the fight club on the character interface, and scolded viciously:

"This group of bastards just sees that I am a hunter and is easy to bully, and the gladiatorial arena is so big that they can't fly their kites, so they want to snatch the 'god-killing quota' in my hand, they want to be beautiful!

Lao Tzu will go to the swamp to find a rare swamp tiger or spider to tame in a while, and this week when he goes back to PK, he will kill their sharpness. ”

"It's useless."

The electronic snail, who had not spoken, shook his head and said:

"We just grabbed the Wolfsburg stronghold, it was the peak of the limelight, those who want to stand out are holding back their strength to step on us, and now there are more and more players, and if you want to make a name, you have to work hard.

The development team gave 120 places to heat up this kind of battle, I mean, all look at the point, lose if you lose, anyway, we have a stronghold, there is a steady supply of materials, we are already invincible.

No one can resist the rise of the Crimson Beasts, and unless we die and let the Administration reclaim the stronghold, there really is no way to do it. ”

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?"

Niu Niu came over with his three sports brothers, and they also carried some spell-casting props in their hands, which they were going to send to the helpers to add status.

Seeing that the dormitory group of six people was so depressed, Niu Niu, who had been proud of the spring breeze recently, couldn't help but ask more, but when he learned about the challenge from them, Niu Niu suddenly became interested, clicked on his interface to take a look, and said with disappointment:

"What, I've only had 3 challenge reservations! Does that mean I'm not famous enough? Still not strong enough? That's too contemptuous of people! ”

"! People want to be famous, not to hit their heads and bleed. ”

Ah Ru scolded:

"With the strength that is firmly in the top ten, who wouldn't want to challenge you? Persimmon to pick a soft pinch, do you understand? Those of us who are at the top of the rankings but not high enough are the best targets.

For example, at this stage, except for Sister Pomegranate and the two grandmasters of the Shadow Trace Sect, no one will challenge Brother Cat for a reason.

There's no chance of winning at all. ”

"What is this, aren't you afraid of practicing hard?"

The shrimp catcher joked:

"Look at the giant shark, it's so upset, the more people who challenge him, the happier he is, you have to learn from the giant shark, that's the real strong mentality, now this kind of worry and fear is called can't afford to lose. By the way, how many of you have unleashed your potential? ”

"I'm 34%, what about you?"

Ah Ru glanced at the character interface and asked, and the shrimp catcher triumphantly made a 4 gesture and said:

"I'm 40 percent."

"Blanch! You're hanging, aren't you? ”

This value shocked everyone around him, including Niu Niu, who exclaimed:

"No, you're the last of us to come in, why are you the fastest to release your potential? There must be a skill to this kind of thing, right? Share it? When classes resume, please eat hot pot! ”

"Fucking Lao Tzu's cheats are only worth a hot pot for you?"

The shrimp catcher rolled his eyes, but then put on a posture of "hiding merit and fame", waved his hand and said:

"I've been asking Master Kudell before, and the tribun told me that fighting style is important, and it's important to find what you're good at, and I know you're all penances in all skills, but that's not right!

Not everyone can practice all the tricks to the master like Brother Cat.

You have to find the skills that best match you, form your own unique fighting style, and let yourself lean towards your own style in the past, you have to have a center of gravity, understand?

I've worked it, I've tried all kinds of weapons, and finally I decided that the long-handled specialization in the Crypt Sword Guard was suitable for me, so I gave up my other core skills to specialize in this! I also went to the master of long-handled weapons in the clan to ask for advice.

Now that all the techniques related to long-handled weapons have been mastered, I feel that my style has been formed.

It turned out that my guess was right, and you see, my potential was unleashed at a rapid rate.

But I'm stuck at 40% and I need at least 70% of my potential to release before I can trigger the Silver Trial, and I'm wondering if the method needs to be improved. ”

"Hmm, is that so?"

The others nodded again and again, including Niu Niu himself.

He glanced at his "boxer" character specialty, wondering if the development team had told him the answer from the beginning.

This concretization of individual advantages seems to be complementary to the "specialization" theory of shrimp catchers.

Brother Cat can cultivate all the slashing techniques taught by Master Kuder to master, isn't it because he has a specialty of "sword master"? Brother Cat may have found his way to silver, but people will definitely not take the initiative to share these.

Speaking of which, my sister has been clamoring to turn to the Thorn Clan and learn the true essence of the Midnight Assassination Fist, is she also.

"Come here, you guys! Ready to go into the hole! ”

Brother Woo Meow's broken gong sound from the side, everyone is ready to kill into the hunting cave in front of them again, in the case of no way to adopt BUG tactics, they plan to fight steadily this time, one by one to clean up the past until finally get the inheritance of the King of Biting Bone.

As for how to distribute those legendary weapons and equipment, this will wait until the fight is over.

Niu Niu is a shield T, so he naturally wants to take the lead, but this time he didn't take his own flail, but took out a heavy punch fist for defense and put it on his hand.

This made Brother Bang, who was also a defender, blink, but he didn't ask more, but the orchid on the other side raised his eyebrows, as if he understood what Niu Niu was planning to do.

"Up! Take it one step at a time, don't mess around! ”

Brother Bang gave an order, and the four shields T immediately stepped forward to catch the monster.

The moment they stepped into the cave, the gnolls hunting guards in front of them jumped up with a roar. The shriveled and weathered corpse was wrapped in a strange green fluorescence, and although the equipment on the body was taken away by Murphy in advance, the strength of these guys was real.

They are all strong men carefully selected by the King of Biting Bones from the entire Gnoll Clan during the Fourth Black Plague, and the combination of a combat team of six people, a silver captain and five elite black iron is irresistible.

The four shields T are carried by one person, and the three or five buckets with the artifact in their hands are carried by one person, blocking the undead assault through the card position, so that the melee and the psionist can grasp the output, and kill each one according to the "hardness" of the shield T.

But there isn't much time left for them.

Because the monsters in the cave are powerful "combat AI", they don't have the "warning range" to say, as soon as the cave mouth opens, more monsters will rush over, which requires DPS to output with all their strength and not touch fish.

The head-to-head engagement was slow, and as each monster could land a crushing critical hit, it was easy to get caught up in surprise, and as they finished off two squads of the hunting guards and were about to move on, a hidden gnoll assassin suddenly used a shadow jump to bypass the defenders and smash into the psyker.

Cheche, who was preparing for a large-scale retardation technique, didn't have time to react, and was hit by three critical hits after the Gnoll Assassin broke the shield twice, but fortunately, Pigeon Bo reacted quickly and gave the guy a fixation spell, so that Cheche ran out with a trace of blood.

Seeing that the Gnoll Assassin was about to get out of trouble, the nearest orchid turned his head to exert reinforcement and crashed into the Gnoll Assassin, kicking him on the waist of the belly, kicking him out of the danger range.

Brother Meow was about to go up and kill with an axe but saw Orchid's weapon being knocked away, but at this critical moment, the only female shield T unhurriedly raised her finger and threw it forward.

"Smack"

The biting wind blew in an instant, and the gnoll assassin was frozen into an ice sculpture, and although the creature broke free after a few seconds, the precious few seconds were enough for the melee to fill in and chop it into pulp.

"Retreat! The formation was chaotic, and they all withdrew to regroup. ”

Brother Bang was startled by the mistake just now, and saw that the monster in front of him was already violent, so he immediately ordered to retreat, and a group of people retreated in a neat manner, and when they left the cave, the violent hunting guards fell to the ground as if they were dead again.

"What's that skill of yours?"

Brother Meow didn't care about the failure of this attempt, he stared at the orchid and asked:

"Shield T doesn't have that kind of general skill, even the cold winter breath of the Nord bloodline can't control a black iron elite for so long, it's more like a psionic master's means."

"Well, this one, this is called 'Ancestral Power'."

Orchid put the shield aside, she was a little annoyed at this time, she obviously planned to quietly upgrade and then complete the silver trial at a specific time, shocking everyone, but she didn't expect that her "little secret" still couldn't be hidden.

"Huh? What the hell is the power of the ancestors? ”

Even Brother Cat was alarmed.

He asked curiously, lifting the heavy sword:

"Is it some kind of special skill? Did you unlock a certain NPC by doing a quest? ”

"Well, this one."

Orchid Flower is not going to say.

However, considering the terrifying difficulty of this god-killing mission, she hesitated for a moment and decided to reveal this secret that could make players strong as soon as possible.

"After choosing a new race, I think the skill of Winter Breath is particularly useful, so whether it is a swamp battle or other battles, I will use it frequently, because it is a shield T, and I quickly brushed its proficiency to the master level.

I didn't think much of it, but when I was beaten up by seven or eight rat mobs a few days ago, my racial skills suddenly changed. ”

The Great Traveler raised his left index finger, and a piercing icy aura swirled around her fingertips, and she explained:

"The system reminded me that through the frequent use of the cold winter breath, the power of the ancient ancestors of the Nord people in my body was discovered, and my cold winter breath advanced to the power of the ancestors: Ice Finger.

On melee contact, the enemy can be forcibly frozen regardless of the strength limit and inflict [Freeze Weak], but the chance of defeat against high-level enemies is increased.

My guess is that this is a change that only racial skills have.

I also guess that this thing may be the truth of the Silver Trial, in addition to unleashing my own potential, I also need to unearth the hidden power in the bloodline from the source of my own race, for example, after unlocking the power of the ancestors, Ice Finger, my potential release bar has skyrocketed to 66%.

There are only 4% left before triggering the Silver Trial. ”

“66%！ Sister Orchid is so fierce, I'm only 32%! ”

Cheche gave out a compliment of licking the dog, but was glared at by the orchid and said:

"I'm not fierce because I discovered the power of the ancestors by mistake, my potential release bar is already stuck at 40%, and all my defense skills are master-level training, okay?

These two conditions complement each other, and there is no such thing as a shortcut. ”

"Yes!"

Sister Pomegranate stared at the cold winter breath wrapped around the orchid's fingers, and she said:

"There is no shortcut to this kind of thing, Orchid's innate condition is the worst among the four shields, so correspondingly, she has the most effort in skills among the four of you, and I have a guess.

Just because 70% can trigger Silver Trials doesn't mean you have to start it at 70%!

Since there's a 100% cap there, my advice is that you'd better unleash your potential to 100% before starting the Trials Progression.

If you think about it, almost all silver-tier NPCs are emphasizing this point, the slower the stage of laying the foundation of the black iron rank, the better, obviously, laying a good foundation is the most important thing!

Just like the Black Iron Trial also has two options, easy and hard, although the value is not bad, but if you look at the victory and defeat of the fight club, you will know that those brothers who take the easy way to advance. To be honest, it's scary to have a little food in actual combat. ”

"The same can't be said for the simple option, which is clearly reserved for the executive and manufacturing and casual players, and not everyone is as hardcore as we are."

Woo Meow Gomo rubbed his chin and said:

"Orchid Flower's intelligence is really important, although we can't engage in knowledge monopoly in the game, but we have to accept this favor! Until Orchid completes the Silver Trial and obtains the server's first achievement, this method cannot be revealed to the forums.

I'm always saying a cruel thing here today, whoever violates the secret covenant, don't play with us in the future!

Is there anything you disagree with? ”

"Yes, everybody understands."

Ah Ru, who was still feeling the pain of the egg just now to meet the PK challenge, couldn't help but want to find a place to tap the ancestral power of the Blood Vulture Clan.

He glanced at the cave and said:

"Now that the secret to strength has been revealed, then I propose that everyone dig up the power of their respective ancestors first, and then challenge this cave when their strength is strengthened, so as not to seriously reduce the number of personnel."

"Well, good idea, that's it!"

Brother Bang made a decision, and the players dispersed according to different guilds, but Brother Bang and Brother Woo Meow, as well as the Silver Moon Group and Brother Cat, all stayed in place.

Brother Meow carried his beloved battle axe and said to the orchid:

"Let's go, let's go around the Earth Palace and help you release your potential bar to 100% as soon as possible, so that you can explore the way."

"It's not necessary."

Orchid was a little embarrassed.

Of course, she knew that these guys didn't want to owe favors when they said they helped, so she waved her hand and said:

"I can do it myself, if anyone of you goes faster than me, it only proves that you are better than me, when I tell this secret, I don't plan to monopolize the first achievement of that server."

"We don't like to hear what you say!"

Brother Bang moved his shoulders and said:

"You still don't understand what this secret you stumbled upon means, don't shirk it, Orchid, you are angry, and everyone can't just treat it as nothing. This server should be yours first, let's go, just when you explore the way for us again. ”
