Chapter 074 The curtain rises(1/2)
In the character information interface, in addition to the "big pyramid of power system" composed of the four major categories of information subjects "knowledge-skills-techniques-talent", there are also internal "small pyramid" structures among the information subjects at each level.
For example, Liu Yifei has mastered "[Knowledge] Fine Forging·Swords (Green)", "[Skills] Shock Shock (Green)", "[Skills] Weakness Attack·Broken Limbs (Green)", "[Talent] Driver
Heart (blue)" etc~
These items, which are rarer and more powerful than similar information, together constitute the "amplifier" of "Geralt's" powerful strength, making it possible for "Geralt" to display his abilities in actual combat even if his basic physical data are similar to others.
A more terrifying killing effect...
The key of "talent" no longer needs to be elaborated, but it is precisely this most important core information. Liu Yifei has hardly built any suitable combat talents for himself. What he has accumulated now includes the most valuable
Including the "driver's heart", all of them have an auxiliary exercise effect, which I have to say is quite a pity~
The reason for this is not only because Liu Yifei's main energy has always been focused on "training the basics", but also because "talent" is so rare that it is difficult for people to control it. For most people, new talent items can be obtained.
It's enough to thank God. Who cares whether it's a support type or a combat type?
And "consuming 'moments of history' to actively add talent items to oneself" is the most perfect way Liu Yifei knows to enhance himself!
Detailed inspection, precise locking, and enhancement plan determined in advance...
It can be said that apart from "huge consumption", this method is simply the most perfect way to build a powerful character template~
The only restriction is that "the talent items you want to add must have sufficient information base"...
After some selection, Liu Yifei finally chose the green talent called "Tenacity"——
[Talent] Tenacity (Personal): 15% of the basic value of the "Spirit" attribute forms an additional value-added effect on "Strength" and "Physique"; every 5 minutes of maintaining a high-intensity combat state, 5% of the basic value of the "Spirit" attribute
% Forms a temporary enhancement effect on "Strength" and "Physique", which can be stacked up to 3 times.
The reason why I chose this talent is not only because I can't afford any exaggerated high-level talent with 4 points of "Historical Moment", but also because of the excellent universality of "Toughness".
In the normal mode, the additional added value of 15% of the basic spirit is not too small, especially the ability and body double increase, which cannot be better. When Liu Yifei really changed his job to [Paladin] in the later period, he added the "spiritual" attribute
If you exercise thoroughly, you will be able to bring even more additional attributes~
In the battle mode, this talent can also bring Liu Yifei a stable enhancement effect under continuous combat. Although it takes a little more time, it is extremely useful when dealing with people of similar strength to himself.
Not to mention that Liu Yifei now has the "Skull of Ax"...
With the help of this thing... or "this person", it can be foreseen that Liu Yifei's subsequent growth in mental attributes will definitely catch up with his advantages in strength and body~
In addition to considering the present, Liu Yifei also remembers that this talent can help his "actions" in the future...
After finally searching his character interface, Liu Yifei quit the game with satisfaction, and then turned to check the "Daily Game Summary" sent by others in the small group as usual.
Since the last time I had a frank discussion with everyone and formally determined the "team establishment" and even everyone's treatment level, some rules within the team have also been established. One of them is that every day before everyone logs off,
You need to intercept your own character data interface and send the task interface to Liu Yifei for "review". It is best to attach some special matters noticed in today's game, etc.
The reason for this is, firstly, to urge everyone in the team to have a more correct attitude and be more serious when playing games in the future. After all, this has now become a "job" that allows everyone to earn wages. Being too casual will inevitably be suspected of cheating Liu Yifei.
But more importantly, I am worried that everyone will not inadvertently miss some important clues that can trigger advanced plots.
After all, in terms of "vision" alone, Liu Yifei is still confident that he can provide guidance to everyone in the team~
No, not long after checking the information at hand, Liu Yifei noticed an interesting piece of news from Cupid's report today: the elf patrol in the town reported that a man had been spotted riding a griffon heading north.
…
Heading north on a gryphon?!
Isn’t it Jenny who is inappropriate?
After all, Cupid's status as "Patrol Captain" in the elf town is still very useful. Not only can he enjoy some moderate conveniences, but also because he is close to the only "Druid Village Chief" around the town.
Closer, you can get some warning information.
Realizing that Jenny had indeed gone north smoothly, Liu Yifei quickly called up the hand-drawn map before - yes, that's right, it was a hand-made map drawn through the activities of Cupid and the Shadowless Bandits in the Elf Region, and combined with
With some iconic place names and so on, the current positions of Cupid and the others were finally roughly locked in the system information in normal mode.
By connecting the points where Harmondale and Cupid were, and then extending them, Liu Yifei quickly determined where Jenny was going.
"Should it be said that the system will indeed ensure the existing process of the original history in some details..."
Looking at Jenny's whereabouts, Liu Yifei murmured with some sigh~
From Harmondale to the Eli territory, based on the current situation, Liu Yifei's preliminary analysis is that there are two routes to the north and northwest. Especially considering that he will fight against Dia's undead army in the future, he obviously needs to take the northwest route.
It is more likely to seek assistance from allies in the border area of Eri - after all, the elves' border patrols already gather the strongest strength in their army...
In "history", after Jenny initially eased the crisis in the Green Field area, when she entered the Eli territory from the area north of Kalawa from west to east, she encountered the elf patrols headed by Crane, and even
Under the introduction of Crane, he met Fiat, the great lord of the elves.
Previously, Liu Yifei had a high probability of guessing that Jenny would take the northwest route and cut into the elven realm this time, because in this way she would most likely "reunite" with Crane again and follow her original destiny trajectory in a similar way.
Now that I look at it, it is indeed as expected!
While sighing, Liu Yifei also quickly gave Cupid and the Shadowless Bandits a new order: starting tomorrow, even if they give up the rights and tasks at hand, they must go all out and strive to reach the "Smart Forest" in the next two days!
Thanks to Cupid's small status and their subjective initiative, the two of them are now considered to be semi-local cowards at least in the area around the "birthplace".
The so-called "wisdom woodland" is actually an old wisdom tree in an ordinary woodland...
To put it bluntly, this [Ancient Tree of Wisdom] is actually a specific variant of the fifth-level creature [Treant] of the Barrier Clan.
Most of the [Treants] will eventually grow into powerful [Wither Wood Warriors], and it will be more difficult to upgrade to a more powerful [Treant Elder] later on, and the [Ancient Tree of Wisdom] is the [Treant Elder]
]’s subsequent special form—returning to its origins and transforming itself back into a “basically ordinary” tall ancient tree—yet a lot of treasured knowledge reflecting its wisdom and expertise will be formed on the tree body and tree holes...
Where [Ancient Tree of Wisdom] stands, the probability of natural creatures in the surrounding area mutating and strengthening will increase. It is even possible for ordinary trees to mutate into [Treants]~
Therefore, in the realm of the elves, places with [Ancient Trees of Wisdom] will eventually form settlements of elves, and are more likely to become places of pilgrimage for spellcasting professions such as [Druids].
"Wisdom Woodland" is such an elven settlement that is in the process of expansion, and a large Druid group has been formed locally...
The reason why Liu Yifei asked Cupid and the Shadowless Thieves to move towards the "Smart Woodland" which was not too close was because Liu Yifei was sure that the patrol army from the Elf side would most likely go to this place for transit!
The most important reason is even what Liu Yifei asked Jenny to give - the most urgent assistance Liu Yifei applied for from the elves was not a powerful army or a rare secret treasure, but a "sufficient" spellcasting profession!
Including [Druid], including [Life Messenger], these powerful spellcasters who can induce the power of nature are what Liu Yifei is really in urgent need of right now!
Moreover, Liu Yifei wanted these people not to send them to the front line to fight the undead monsters, but precisely to alleviate the upcoming huge logistics gap!!
Although Liu Yifei has been "turning a blind eye" to the thousands of war refugees gathered outside Karava Castle recently, it's not because he really doesn't care at all...
Let's talk about the most practical issue. Even if we treat these "refugees" purely as potential sources of soldiers, don't we, as leaders, need to ensure that they survive?
The soldiers on the front line have suffered losses. How can they continue to fight without timely replacement from the rear?
Or do you expect Liu Yifei and his few powerful leaders to be able to defeat tens of thousands of overwhelming undead armies?!
Even if it is just to achieve Liu Yifei's own strategic goal of "borrowing chickens to lay eggs", he must preserve the border residents in the Green Field area as much as possible...
And as the war continues, the problem of "food shortage" will become more and more terrible!
At present, Liu Yifei can still cook some gruel and distribute it to everyone in the name of checking the body of the refugees and recruiting reserve troops. However, with the subsequent arrival of the army and the long-term consumption of the war, Liu Yifei will inevitably become less and less capable.
Take care of the refugees.
Because one of the core problems is that Liu Yifei is a "rootless duckweed" - he doesn't even have any "food reserves" on hand that can allow him to invest in this war as capital!
All his power, all his capital, and all his troops came from temporary orders under the current special circumstances.
And if he wants to get rid of the chokehold from the nobles at the rear, or be able to better implement his "borrowing chickens to lay eggs" plan, he must find ways to accumulate his own capital... One of the core indicators that cannot be avoided is "grain storage"
!
If you don't have food and can't feed soldiers, even if you have thousands of troops, it will be nothing more than a passing cloud. A gust of wind will blow everything away.
If the people in the Greenfield area were to grow their own food... then time and space might not allow it~
So Liu Yifei thought of asking elves to "help"!
When did you ever hear that the elves were short of food?
That's precisely because there are many spellcasters like [Druids] and [Life Messengers] among the elves!
These casters who can mobilize and activate the power of nature can ripen crops in a short period of time. With their help, Liu Yifei feels that it is possible to improve the nutritional level of everyone around Kalava.
~
Because crops such as the various fruits that elves love to eat are actually somewhat valuable compared to the middle and lower-class civilians of Erathia. Anyway, if you throw one out, it will attract more than ten or twenty half-year-old children to drool.
It’s easy to stand on the edge and watch...
The only thing to pay attention to is the so-called "balanced druid" school in the big profession [Druid].
Druids of this school have always firmly opposed the use of magic power to interfere with the growth of natural creatures, even if it is the elves themselves who do such things...
Since the act of using magic to quickly ripen plants consumes a lot of land and energy, in the eyes of the "Balance Druids", this is an act that seriously disturbs the balance of the natural environment and is a blasphemous act that goes against their "doctrine"
.
For this reason, even the "Balance Druids" have always been a relatively firm "opposition" in the Kingdom of Eli...
Liu Yifei was definitely afraid of those "balanced" druids who were capable and willing to cause trouble, so he had made it very clear to Jenny before, asking her to apply for [Wild Druid] from the elves, [
[Hurricane Druid] or preferably [Life Messenger] for spell support. Not only formal level spell casters are required, but if they are from the above factions, even those who are still in the apprenticeship stage can be considered.
As long as it is stated that this matter "is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of refugees", I know that Jenny will not do her best to handle it...
To be continued...
