"——At the same time, this body structure also means that any action you take consumes magic power, so you need to replenish it in time by eating."
After Qin Xuan finished speaking, he looked at several players who were running to catch bugs, and some players were trying to eat mud.
"Generally speaking, substances like bugs and soil only contain a small amount of magic power. If you want to replenish it efficiently, it is recommended to choose small-volume monster meat. At the same time, fighting monsters can also increase your combat experience."
The eyes of some battle-enthusiastic players lit up. Great, men want to fight!
"You should have all received your initial funds. Come over here and spend your ether points to choose and purchase your initial weapons."
Qin Xuan pointed to a large machine that looked like a workbench on the other side.
Miyu, who was an engineer, was operating the system. With a clang, a set of weapons was synthesized.
This is actually a costume synthesis machine, which uses the Association's spirit particle engineering and Ayuan's high-speed alchemy, and is the Association's more mainstream production method. But for now, the only costumes available to players are general weapon-like costumes without limited functions.
Chapter 480: The four lower cavalry ranks, not even dogs would choose!
"Wow, what a beautiful black-haired girl!"
"Which eye of yours saw that this was a young lady? Why couldn't it be a pretty young man? Are you discriminating against men?"
"Damn it, this game doesn't allow you to change your appearance! If I could play a female character, I would make one like this right now!"
The player's incredible language level is maxed out, but Master Meiyou's expressionless skills are even more sophisticated. He can ignore interference and easily complete the creation of one costume after another in this public opinion environment.
"Please state your equipment needs."
Miyu looked up and began to recite the lines to deal with the players, "The current stock of ready-made equipment is divided into armaments and ceremonial equipment."
"Armaments are the weapons you use in battle. Currently, the only ceremonial equipment is auxiliary equipment."
[Spirit Engineer-Meiyou shared the "Basic Equipment Forging Instructions", please open the system mailbox to check. 】
When players received email reminders, the US Game Exhibition listed some existing equipment reserves.
"The more common weapons include one-handed swords, two-handed swords, spears, katana, daggers, bows and arrows... These are common cold weapons. If you want more unpopular styles, please provide drawings according to the standards of the "Instructions for Forging Primary Equipment". The material fee will be calculated separately. As for the auxiliary ceremonial equipment, there is only this one," Meiyou said as she listed a row of crystal clear leaf-shaped ceremonial equipment.
"This is the Soul Patrolling Leaf, an item that can collect free magic power. Each person is limited to one. I suggest that you carry it with you whether you are hunting monsters or in normal times. It can absorb the free magic power that is not used normally as a reserve, so that you can use it to replenish it once you consume a certain amount of magic power."
This kind of attire was very common among magicians in the Old Human Era. Since they would carry it with them, the shape should be easy to place beside them or hold in the hand. Of course, there are also types like Weber or female magicians who keep their hair long to show their appreciation.
Because doing so is equivalent to having an extra mana slot. As long as you are a magician, you will at least have an auxiliary gift as a backup mana slot just in case. And it is even more indispensable for players who are constantly consuming mana.
Moreover, at present, the channel opened by Qin Xuan is limited in scale. He uses local materials to build positions according to the spiritual veins, and with the support of the channel, the consumption of the supply base is almost enough, and there are 1,000 player quotas issued. Even if it is impossible to have so many people online at the same time, the mana consumption of hundreds of servants is quite amazing, and there will be more people online in the future.
In summary, it is more cost-effective for players to collect it themselves. Moreover, the environment of the Age of Gods in Sumer is relatively friendly, and the magic in the air is active. Even if they carry it daily, they can collect enough magic to supply their regular actions.
Next, the players received the patrol leaves in turn and paid ether points to purchase their own weapons.
Most players chose melee weapons, and many male players chose greatswords. Although this Heroic Einherjar has the lowest attributes among servants, it is enough to easily bear heavy weapons.
As expected, Mizutsu Ayako chose the bow and arrow, which was her forte. For most people, the use of long-range weapons such as bows and arrows requires higher standards. It is not enough to have great strength, but also to be accurate.
Shirou Emiya and Shinji Matou from the Kyudo Club also chose the bow and arrow. Goto, the last member of the Hogunhara Academy boys' group, chose the katana and wakizashi. He claimed that he often watched Taiga dramas about swordplay and halberds, so he signed up for classes out of interest, but I don't know if it's true or not.
"Tsk, a bow only comes with a quiver of 20 arrows," Matou Shinji adjusted to the bow and couldn't tell what it was made of, "so we'll need to buy more after we use them up."
While testing the pulling force of the bow, Emiya Shirou said, "It's okay. It should be recyclable after use. I saw that the weapons have durability values. When the durability is gone, just replace the arrowhead."
Mizutsu Ayako discovered a blind spot, "Have you noticed the difference between our bodies and reality?"
"Ah? Even more powerful?"
"No, it seems that everyone's attribute development focuses on different things," Mizutsu Ayako said carefully, "I just asked, Himuro and the others are from the track and field club, their running speed and jumping ability are higher than mine. And my eyesight has become very good compared to them, how about you?"
"Me too." Shirou Emiya looked into the distance. He felt that his eyes were like a zoom camera. He could even see a few bugs crawling on a tree in the distance. "This should be an extension of the quality of my real body."
"Is this game so outrageous?" Shinji frowned. "It even tests our physical fitness? Or does the operator have data on our usual performance characteristics?"
"It seems that the latter is much easier than the former..."
"It's just a coincidence! It's just a game, it can't be fun." Goto didn't really care.
After chatting for a while, the other players had almost received their equipment. Qin Xuan gave the players the final instructions for today, "Okay, all the Adventers, please take the first step in exploring this world! This place is the foothills of Mount Abifu, a little distance away from the Mesopotamian Plain. There are some relatively weak monsters in the surrounding woodlands. Please explore carefully. In addition, with your strength, it is not recommended to go deep into the mountains."
At the same time, Qin Xuan also asked Meiyou to issue a novice task: collect the gains from hunting monsters, such as valuable fur, fangs and other materials. These can be used as raw materials for equipment. If handed in, they will get extra experience and ether point rewards.
“Ohhhhhhhh—start fighting! My sword is thirsty for blood!”
"No one can compete with me for this piece of forest land in this direction. I have contracted it!"
"Hehehe! Magical beasts, delicious Magical beasts! Tonight's dinner is settled!"
Thus, a large group of players with abnormal walking postures and strange noises set off with arrogant steps.
Then, they soon discovered that even though they had physical fitness that surpassed that of ordinary people, they could not easily defeat the monsters.
At this time, the boys' group of Hogunhara Academy were the first to realize this.
Three pig-shaped monsters with wild fur and sharp fangs appeared before them.
[lv5 Demon Pig-Larva]
[Evaluation: A demon pig that has not yet reached maturity, slightly powerful. ]
Shit! High level means strong?
After all, we are the ‘Adventers’ with a high-end setting, so we should at least be evaluated as ‘equally matched’!
The half-human-length demon pigs grunted and ate grass roots quietly, but this kind of demon beast often had irregular manic attacks. One of them had dark red blood on its long fangs. Goto, Shinji, and Emiya could sense the amazing magic power from them through their skills in using magic power as servants. No wonder the forerunner said that the magic power of soil was very little.
Goto swallowed his saliva and glanced at his teammates on both sides. Fortunately, Emiya and Shinji were not panicking. They had already climbed up the tree and found their positions, and were aiming their bows and arrows, but the demon pig didn't notice. If everyone had to fight in close combat and face this kind of demon beast head-on, it would have been extremely embarrassing. So, Goto tightened his grip on the hilt of the knife.
"Whoosh-"
At a certain moment, two arrows almost hit two of the demon pigs at the same time. However, after the arrows penetrated deeply into the demon pigs' flesh, they did not kill them, but instead triggered the demon beasts' manic instincts. The three demon pigs turned towards them at the same time.
Goto knew that the time had come for him to appear, so he let out a loud roar, drew his sword suddenly, and rushed out, with the charm of a swordsman in a sword-fighting movie.
"Cut it off——"
Goto was surprised to find that his instant sprint speed was faster than he had imagined, and the sword that was chopped down from above his head even made a noticeable sound in the air.
when!
The demon pig tilted its head and used its tusks to block Goto's cut. The heavy attack caused the ground under the demon pig's hooves to shake.
"Goto be careful!"
Without his companions' reminder, Goto also saw the other two - the demon pigs with arrows stuck in their buttocks following closely behind, "Hey, hey! Three against one is not fair! And why did this demon beast become more powerful after being injured?"
Under the critical situation of the triple attack and the stimulation of the foul smell of the monster, Goto instantly drew out the wakizashi, and the blade pressed against the right side, but the left side was wide open -
Goto couldn't help but yell out in pain - his butt was pierced by the fangs.
The sound of arrows whizzing could be heard by their ears. The charging demon pigs were difficult to aim at. Taking advantage of the moment when they were temporarily held back by Goto, Shinji and Emiya attacked frantically and finally took care of the three demon pigs.
"Goto! Are you okay?" Emiya and Shinji still admired him very much, as he actually managed to hold the monster.
"It's okay, it's just-hiss, my butt seems to be bleeding."
After checking, the wound was not deep, and Goto felt that it was not painful afterwards, which was totally different from reality. However, according to the pioneers, they were just a group of magic polymers, and the nerves, blood, etc. were simulated, so it seemed that there would be no wound infection? I just don't know if there is any special recovery method.
Emiya tore off a small piece of his uniform to bandage Goto's wound. Shinji retrieved the arrow from the demon pig.
"Can you still move?"
"Of course!" Goto was afraid that his first hunting mission would end here, so he returned to the base. "Keep hunting! This time, find the lone hunters and fight until dark!"
Tata is on! Touch it and it will open!
------
In the base, Miyu stayed quietly beside the machine.
There was a sign on one side that read "Working hours 9:17~:". She had nothing to do for the time being, so she stared at the sign in a daze.
Da da da.
Qin Xuan returned to the base, "Meiyou?"
"Ah...big brother," Miyu's expression showed a moment of panic when she saw Qin Xuan suddenly appear nearby, then she looked around, but there was no sign of her two friends.
"Are you looking for Illya and Chloe? They are watching the players. We can't let them run around now." Although Qin Xuan warned them not to explore too deeply, there would definitely be some players who would get carried away and run away somewhere else while fighting, so they still had to be careful.
"Well, no, actually..." Meiyu didn't say much. She wanted to act like a good student in front of Qin Xuan, but she was also thinking about how to find a topic, which made her look a little cute. "Today's players saw someone very familiar..."
Well, I feel like I don’t really want to talk about this topic, but it seems like there is no other topic.
"Familiar? You mean the justice partner Emiya? He is quite different from your brother."
In this world, Shirou Emiya is just a half-baked magician, and his appearance and abilities are different. In addition, there is also an ordinary Shirou in Moi. To be honest, Miyu will not be surprised if there are more Emiya characters.
"Well, then Illya has two, Luvia and Rin-nee also have two... but it seems like Big Brother only has one - ugh!"
"Hey, one is enough. There are so many parallel worlds, and it's boring to repeat the same thing over and over again. Look, the name of Bao Shi Weng is known in every world, but he is actually the same person in all these worlds."
That's true, Miyu thought silently. Besides, the relationship between the two Illyas didn't seem to be very good, and there were no examples of the others getting along well.
The two chatted until dark, and soon players with wounds all over their bodies came back one after another.
"Wow, the vibe between the pioneer brother and the engineer sister is so good! I'm impressed!"
"What? There's a couple? Let's go!"
"Wuwuwu, obviously the Forerunner is mine...how did things turn out like this?"
"Stop dreaming, hurry up and help move the materials. I have to go to work tomorrow after you're done!"
"What? I just noticed that this NPC actually has off-duty time?"
The arrival of players always destroys the atmosphere. When strange words were heard, Miyu quickly restrained her expression, turned cold again and started working.
"A less complete demon pig skin is worth 20 Ether Points - a demon pig tusk with a moderate hardness is worth 45 Ether Points -..."
One by one, Miyu collected the materials into the workbench.
Some seriously injured players were forcibly taken to the cabin by Qin Xuan for repair, and then directly logged off - someone wanted to commit suicide and revive with full health, but the magic points he collected were sufficient, but the ether points did not meet the requirements, so Qin Xuan rejected it.
The last to arrive was the Hogunhara Academy group, but in addition to the materials they also brought back a complete demon pig.
"What? You want to cook this demon pig?"
Qin Xuan was slightly surprised. It was Emiya who came up with this idea, and it seemed that he really wanted to try "Monster cuisine".
"Meiyu, do we have ready-made kitchenware template data?"
"some."
"I see. I'll sell it to you at half the price of a novice's weapon."
Hearing this, everyone cheered.
"Long live the Forerunner!"
Onboard!
Shirou Emiya began to prepare the ingredients, and Yukika Saegusa, who was good at home cooking, also came to help.
Shinji opened the panel and browsed the official website.
"Hey, look, the official website has been updated! After level 20, you can choose to 'change your job'!"
"Wow, really? There are seven professions at once?"
However, some players who logged off earlier have already seen the attribute growth and class skills of each profession, and some of them began to make sharp comments:
[The top three riders will definitely take off! The bottom four riders are such a loser that even dogs wouldn't choose them! ]
Chapter 481: Mount Trainer? Pokémon Trainer!
[A classic saying of "praise one and dislike one", you know it before you even start playing? Are you a cloud? 】
[It is an indisputable fact that the lower four riders are not as good as the upper three riders in terms of their panels. If they take a pure combat route, won’t the attribute suppression become greater and greater as the level difference increases? ]
[You know this again? When did the official say that the purpose of this game is just to fight? ]
The official website announced seven professions during the first day of testing, namely the Saber, who has the best panel except for magic, the Lancer with the highest agility growth, the Archer who is good at long-range attacks, the Rider who can fight with a mount, the Caster who uses magic as his main means, the Assassin who has low ability and is only good at concealment, and the Berserker who improves his attributes at the cost of losing his mind. In other words, players under level 20 have a skill-free panel of the rank of "Heroic Soldier", and after changing their job, their rank will be changed to one of the seven professions.
After changing jobs, different jobs will not only have different growth values for each attribute, but will also gain things called [Inherent Skills] and [Class Skills], thus saying goodbye to the empty skill bar. Class skills are generally fixed, while inherent skills seem to be determined according to each person's characteristics.
However, judging from the panel data and the published class skills, the so-called lower four riders also have some disadvantages. Rider's riding level is higher than Saber, but the other magic resistance skill is shared by the upper three riders; Caster's magic is restrained by the upper three riders + rider, and the class skills "Field Creation" and "Item Creation" are definitely auxiliary classes; Assassin, breath blocking is a standard assassin class; Berserker is not a normal choice, although the official explanation is that this is "only effective when entering the battle stage", but it is also marked as "not recommended for players with normal mental will".
I've learned something new. Nowadays, whether you can pursue a career or not depends on whether you have a normal mind.
