Lan sipped his wine happily and called up the system panel.

Mission: City Defense Iron Guard Part 1]
Lann has not used the skill points he obtained by winning the martial arts tournament. The main reason is that the skill bar is not open at all, so he cannot activate the skills he wants.
What Lan wanted most was the [Seal] related skills, but now the whole area is gray.
Among the [Combat] skills, most of them are gray.
The skill panel of "The Witcher 3" is divided into four levels. Only when you have enough corresponding skill points in the previous level can you unlock the skills of the next level.
The skill points required for each level are 8/20/30 respectively. That is, you need to spend 8 skill points on the first-level skill to open the second-level skill panel, and 20 skill points on the second-level panel to open the third-level panel.
Lann has now spent 10 skill points on the first-level skill and has already unlocked the second-level skill.
The skill setting of The Witcher 3 is actually very interesting. Some low-level skills can achieve qualitative changes after reaching the maximum level, while many high-level skills provide useless effects. This leads to players sometimes preferring low-level skills rather than upgrading to higher-level skills.
In the [Combat] skills, there are four first-level skills, namely:
[Muscle Memory]: Quick attack damage increased by 25%. Adrenaline poison increased: +5%. (5/5)
[Intensity Training]: Increases power attack damage by 25%. Increases adrenaline poison by +5%. (5/5)
[Arrow Deflection]: A well-timed block can deflect arrows and double the damage. Adrenaline poison increase: +3% (3/3)
[Lightning Reaction]: Slow motion when aiming a crossbow is further slowed down by 45%. Adrenaline poison increased: +3%. (3/3)
[Decided (Gray)]: Reduce adrenaline loss when taking damage by 100%. Increase adrenaline poison by +5%. (5/5)
The effects shown here are all at full level. There is no need to add the last two skills, as Lan never uses them in the game. Now there are five level 2 skills corresponding to these level 1 skills:
[Precision Heavy Attack]: Rapid attack critical hit chance increases by 10%, rapid attack critical hit damage increases by 75%. Adrenaline poison increases by +5%. (5/5)
[Broken to pieces]: Increases critical hit chance by 10%, increases critical hit damage by 75%, and increases adrenaline poison by +5%. (5/5)
[Unmovable]: Reduces damage taken when dodging by 100%. Increases adrenaline poison by +5%. (5/5)
[Cruel and Merciless]: Each time a crossbow arrow hits a target, 0.2 points of adrenaline will be added. Adrenaline poison increase: +5%. (5/5)
[Undead Clan (Gray)]: When your health drops to 0, if you still have adrenaline points, you can use adrenaline to restore your health. The amount of recovery depends on the adrenaline points used. Add 100%. Adrenaline poison increase: +5%. (5/5)
What Lan En coveted the most was the [Undead] in the game. This was a skill that had to be unlocked in the game. As long as he had adrenaline toxin, he would not be afraid of death!
Unfortunately, adrenaline toxin is a unique power that demon hunters gain from potion body transformation, and Lann cannot use it. After thinking about it, Lann finally put the skill points on [Motionless as a Mountain].
[Unmovable]: Reduces damage taken when dodging by 40%. Increases adrenaline poison by +2%. (2/5)
When you reach level 5, the damage reduction will reach 100%. What does this mean? The concept is that even if the opponent has a warlock opening an AOE to clear the field, even if Lann is within the opponent's attack range, as long as Lann rolls to dodge, he will not be hurt.
This is not "still as a mountain", this is "dimensional wandering", this is a game bug in the real world.
Judging from the effect, this skill is even more "magical" than those warlocks' magic. It is simply incomprehensible in this world and is a dimensionality reduction attack.
It’s a pity that to obtain such god-level special effects, you have to upgrade this skill to the maximum level.
After acquiring this future magical skill, Lann closed his eyes and tried to carefully feel the changes in his body, but found that although [Unmovable as a Mountain] had been upgraded by two levels, his physical fitness had not improved at all.
This made Lann frown, this was completely different from what he had planned.
Why do [Muscle Memory] and [Intensity Training] have corresponding physical fitness improvements with each level up? Is it because these two skills are simply the type that improves basic combat power? Or is it because the second-level skills no longer improve physical fitness?
If he had more skill points, Lann could click on several other skills and verify his guesses one by one.
pity.
It all comes down to poverty, there are never enough skill points.
I can only wait until I have extra skill points to test it again. Fortunately, I now have people under my command, and the speed of upgrading has finally ushered in a qualitative leap. Not only can I work on multiple lines, but the efficiency of each task has also increased a lot.
For example, today's task of finding the arsonist may be very simple in the game. Just chat with someone, turn on the demon hunter senses, and run around the map a few times according to the clues. It can be done in ten minutes.
But in reality, Lann doesn't have the detective skills like a witcher's senses, so giving him more time would only result in failure.
What about the city defense force? Ten people, spreading out in a carpet-like manner, and they themselves also have some of the responsibilities of the police in later generations, which is a professional counterpart.
With these city defense forces, Lann can do many tasks that he could not do before.
I used to level up ten times in a year, but now I level up one level a day. The road to invincibility is right in front of me!
Lann painted a rosy picture for himself and enjoyed the future, although he knew it was definitely a foolish dream. Then he suddenly stood up and shouted to the bar owner:
"Give each of my warriors another glass of wine!"
This generosity caused cheers from the young men.
"To Lord Lannister!"
Hands raised their glasses to greet Lann, and the music of the musicians and the shouts of the men in the bar mixed together, making people's blood boil.
Lan drank another glass of strong liquor and was just falling into a daze when a man in a sophisticated robe and two waiters suddenly walked up to their table.
The deputy captain was about to angrily scold the outsider who disrupted the festive atmosphere, but a waiter behind him suddenly held a bottle of exquisite wine and gently placed it on the table.
The deputy captain was stunned. Putting a bottle of good wine in front of a drunkard, especially a half-drunk drunkard, was simply not pleasing him enough.
The robed man bent slightly and whispered, "Excuse me, is this Lord Lannister in person?"
Lan showed an interested look, and casually threw the bottle of wine that the other party brought to the deputy captain, asking him to drink it, while motioning for the other party to sit down.
"I am the only Lannister in all of Cintra. If you are looking for a Lannister, it must be me."
"You are joking, Lord Earl. With your ability, I believe that the Lannister family will soon become an important family in Cintra." The man in the robe said with a smile, "It seems that we have to celebrate your promotion today."
The businessman pointed at the city defense troops who were partying.
"The bottle of wine you sent made my vice-captain very happy, so you can continue talking before I finish this glass of wine."
Lann didn't like dealing with the businessmen of this era, nor with the nobles who could do nothing but put on airs.
The man in the robe was very used to the aloofness that nobles like Lann exuded, and he smiled and said, knowing how to read his expression:
"I have long heard of your reputation as 'Lannister, a man of his word'. Now that you have been promoted to an officer in the city defense army, I would like to give you a share of the credit. At the same time, I also hope that you can save us merchants from the dire situation."
"Just a month ago, a group of bandits appeared in the countryside of Cintra. They were very well organized and each of them was very skilled. There were also many deserters from the battlefield. They usually didn't dare to rob villages, so they always robbed us merchants."
Having said this, the man in the robe wiped his eyes hypocritically.
"Just two days ago, they robbed a caravan under my command. Not only did they take away all the goods, but they also killed all the people. Only one of them escaped."
As he spoke, he pointed to a man behind him who was wrapped in thick gauze bandages and looked listless, as if trying to show his sympathy.
"My Lord, this is a good opportunity. These guys usually have no fixed place to stay, and the captains of the guards of many towns have joined forces to encircle and suppress them but have not been able to find them. It is rare that they are bold enough to come to the outskirts of Cintra. Isn't this a good opportunity for you?"
As the person over there was talking, there was a sudden sound from Lann's panel.
[Discovery Mission: The Bandits of the Wandering Gang:
A merchant who is suffering from banditry asks you for help. This is a group of robbers roaming around Sintra. It is rare that their whereabouts have been mastered. This seems to be an opportunity to eradicate them completely.
Accept/Reject】
Without waiting for Lann to answer, the robed merchant put a large, clanking money bag on the table.
"Lord Lan, this is a deposit for you. I know that a big shot like you is definitely not short of money. This is just a token of my appreciation. I will reward you handsomely after the matter is completed."
Lann raised his eyebrows, clicked [Accept] the task, and then shouted:
"Boss, give my brothers another round of strong liquor. I want the best dwarven liquor!"
He immediately threw the purse to the deputy captain who had been looking over here quietly, and continued to say to the robed merchant:
"If the money in that purse is not enough for the wine, you can make up for it. You should know that it is not just me who is helping you, but my soldiers as well."
The deputy captain, who was already a little drunk, pounced like a tiger and was almost hit on the head by the thick money bag. He had been paying attention to Lan's table for a long time, and his eyes widened when he saw the money bag being taken out by the merchant.
"Besides, sir, since you have heard of my reputation, you should know that besides 'a promise of a thousand gold', I have another name." Lann said softly, "Lannister, a debt must be paid."
After saying this, he no longer looked at the merchant's expression, but turned and spoke loudly to the soldiers of the city defense army.
"Everyone can drink and eat as much as they want tonight, but you must not be late for the training tomorrow morning!"
"Long live Lord Lan!"
"For the Lannisters!!"
Such cheering and shouting may not seem to be in accordance with the rules, but it is a good sign that he can raise the morale of the army to this level on his first day as the captain of the city guard.
