The mage arrives

Gordon already had some speculations about how the war would develop in the future.I am afraid that the armies of both sides will not engage in large-scale battles in the wild.Instead, it was a city defense battle with Gaoyan City as the main battlefield.

Walls, towers, bunkers, even every house and every street may become a battlefield.In large-scale battles in the wild, the way of coordinating operations in a large square of 500 or even 1000 people will no longer exist.Both sides will adopt the combat method of a small team of less than ten people as the basic unit, and devote themselves to the competition for every strategic point in the city.

Gordon didn't want Xiona to fight, but it was almost inevitable.So he wanted to strengthen his own side as much as possible—not Freyton's army, but the strength of the Freeman family. Maybe he couldn't win the war, but at least he could survive the war unharmed.

Although Chuck and the five are veterans who have been fighting for a long time, and their strength is not too weak, they are not familiar with the small-scale fighting methods of the adventure group.And because they are all officers, they often had to command the soldiers under them in battles in the past, and they couldn't fully display their personal strength.

So Gordon wants to reverse their concepts and let them learn new ways of fighting.

In this regard, not only Gordon, a senior player who has led countless groups of five and ten in dungeons, is familiar with it, but Xiona is also very good at it because of her long experience as an adventurer.

When the five Chucks met Xiona for the first time, they were a little bit disapproving.It's not that they disrespect Patriarch Freeman's sister, but that they are veterans of many battles.Instinctive doubts about a delicate and pretty little girl.

However, after Xiona defeated the five of Chuck one by one, and then easily won the five-on-one siege, the five new fighters of the Freeman family were finally convinced.

After all, the strength gap is there.None of them has awakened their power, so they are not Xiona's opponents at all.

After experiencing the strength of the young lady of the Freeman family, the five of them started very targeted training.

In addition to the most basic cooperation in the adventure team, such as the frontal defense of heavy armored fighters, long-range support by archers, explosive assault by two-handed fighters, and wandering support by swordsmen.Gordon also developed a unique set of training topics for them.

He brought the concept of "digitization" into this world.

Although Gordon believes that apart from himself, there will be no second person in the world of Telos who owns the system.However, a strength determination method similar to the game form has already existed.

At the earliest, it was the occupational hierarchy system invented by the Mage Guild.They use the level of the magic net touched by the caster as the standard for judging the level of the mage.Touched a layer of magic net.It is a ring mage.The second-layer magic net is the second-ring mage.Immediately afterwards, the major temples also adopted this method.Those who can obtain one-level magic from prayer are first-level priests, and those who can obtain second-level magic from prayer are second-level priests.

Because of touching the magic nets of different levels, the difference in energy level that the caster can control is very obvious, and it is also easy to observe and measure.So it is relatively easy to classify spellcasters.

But for non-casters.For example, fighters, rangers, rogues and other physics professions, how to determine the strength level is more troublesome.

Some warriors like to use light one-handed swords with agility.Some warriors are physically strong and prefer two-handed battle axes.Fighting styles are different, physical fitness is different, and fields of expertise are different. It is difficult to classify fighters with quantitative standards like spellcasters.

It wasn't until the end of the second era, after the legendary warrior Kai founded the Warrior Guild, that with the help of several scholars and even gods, a set of rating methods for warrior professions was established.

In this twenty-level rating system, every time a fighter is promoted to a level, he needs to take a physical fitness test, including strength, agility, physique, and perception. There are a total of 24 points, and he must get [-] points to be able to pass. Take the next stage of testing.

In the second stage, the tester must conduct five simulated battles: from twenty kinds of hostile creatures that match the challenger's current level, and ten different environments, five battle scenes are randomly combined.If the tester wins three battles, he will be considered successful in promotion.

This set of relatively objective evaluation criteria was soon widely used in fighter guilds across the mainland, and was subsequently adopted by other organizations.However, the rating methods of each organization are also different.For example, the rogue guild will add test content such as unlocking and setting traps.The Ranger Guild will allow testers to communicate with wild animals.

However, the only disadvantage is that this set of rating evaluation system requires the support of a wide variety of illusion, mind spells, and prophecy spell equipment, so generally only regional guilds in large cities are eligible for rating evaluation.

Gordon's "data flow" is a more refined and objective method than this evaluation system.

Every good player is very sensitive to data.And every top player is a data master.

Relying on the relationship of Grand Duke Antaello, Gordon borrowed a set of magic equipment for testing physical fitness from the Warriors Guild in High Rock City, and improved it himself.He then started data collection and assessed the individual's physical fitness while Chuck and others were using the devices.

It might not be able to reach the precision of "Strength xx" and "Agility xx" given by the system, but Gordon still established a set of mathematical models of his own.

Because the enemies he was about to face were orcs, Gordon used "orcs" as his basic unit.

For example, Rufus Hartling can smash an orc corpse wearing heavy armor to pieces with a single hammer. According to measurements, the power of his blow is 4.2 orcs.Yang Qi Jianer can shoot through the chest of an orc protected by leather armor at a distance of 100 meters. The power of his arrow is 1.5 orc.And Chuck's cleaving with the long sword at close range can cause 1.5 orc damage within a fan-shaped area within 2.2 meters...

Not only accurate and reasonable data collection methods are required, but also profound data statistics and analysis capabilities are required to maximize the effect of this set of "data flow" methods.

Of course, Gordon, who has received modern higher education and has good intellectual attributes, has this ability.

Under his guidance, Chuck and the five began to slowly improve their fighting habits against the orcs.

Rufus, who is strong and ferocious like a black bear, used to get carried away in battles and didn't know how to control his own strength, and because the weapons he used were very heavy, he often faced the dilemma of exhaustion in battles.Now with Gordon's data analysis, he began to learn to restrain the strength of each swing of the hammer. If he could kill an orc warrior with one point of strength, he would not use a second point of strength.

As for Yang Qi Sharp Ears, Gordon drew up a table specially for this little half-elf archer.Let him clearly understand the different force attenuation received by the arrows he shoots at different distances.At different distances, in the face of enemies wearing different types of armor, it is now clear at a glance what strength should be used to open the bow and what kind of arrows should be used to achieve a one-hit kill.

And Chuck and the other two: Woodrow, who has a ponytail and is good at using spears, and Theodore, who prefers throwing weapons such as crossbows, hand axes, and short javelins, have also been improved to varying degrees.

Gordon believed that after this unique and targeted training, these five people would become the most efficient combat team for slaughtering orcs in Gaoyan City.

Not only Chuck and others, Xiona also benefited a lot after introducing Gordon's "data flow" analysis method when practicing swordsmanship.Although her strength has not improved significantly, her use of power has improved to a higher level.

In addition to this "data flow" training method, Gordon also carried out another unique exercise for Chuck and the five.

He called it "dosing".

For a mage, all kinds of magic potions are an important means to improve strength and help in battle.But for Chuck and others, such things as magic potions are very unfamiliar.

A bottle of second-level magic potion costs an average of 10 gold coins, which is considered a very expensive luxury with Chuck and others' economic capabilities.And they serve in the army, not self-sufficient adventurers, and there is no need to use magic potions.

But things are different now.As a mage with a lot of money, and there are two Fengjing assistants who specialize in dispensing medicines, Gordon will naturally dispense enough magic potions for them to improve their strength in battle.

But here comes the problem.With the buff effect provided by the potion, the combat situation will be completely different.After Yang Qi Jianer drank the owl's insight potion, his perception attribute improved, which would give him a new experience in calculating wind speed, distance, and target moving speed.If you don't go through a certain amount of adaptation and experience accumulation, and drink the potion in a hurry during the battle, I'm afraid it will reduce the combat effectiveness.

After the Grand Duke arrived in Gaoyan City, he generously gave Gordon the maximum usage authority of the magic material warehouse.Because of the war, not only troops, but also various materials are constantly gathering in Gaoyan City.Especially those nobles who are afraid of war, not only dare not go to the front line, but also secretly send their children to the south. In order to show their "political correctness", they are afraid of liquidation afterwards, and donate all kinds of materials to support the front line without hesitation.

With such a wealth of resources, Gordon can not only guarantee the consumption of magic potions for Chuck and others during daily training, but also find many useful things for himself to deal with the upcoming war.

The most precious of them is a rune gemstone that he found in the warehouse in 358 of the Fourth Era, which was made by the famous rune mage Kaphabalans. (To be continued..)
