Holy crap! Talent!
Perhaps it's because I had a fortune told before and my luck was excellent, or perhaps as a time traveler, I should have some special advantages.
In short, Lin Yu was overjoyed to receive the talent and almost cried tears of joy.
Lin Yu quickly checked the effects of the Sword Spirit Talent:
[You can absorb and refine sword-type weapons, permanently converting them into mana. Note: The ability to absorb and refine also increases with your level.]
Lin Yu read the short line three times, a look of ecstatic joy spreading across his face.
This talent is almost unbelievable!
Anyone who has played games knows that mana is the energy used to cast skills, commonly known as the blue bar. When the combat power of both sides is similar, the side with more mana is almost invincible.
Mana is hard to increase, so a talent that can permanently increase mana is simply outrageous!
Furthermore, this talent has an even more outrageous function:
If you were fighting an enemy who was also a swordsman, and you turned around and swallowed the enemy's sword, I wonder if the enemy would cry.
Just as he was feeling pleased, Lin Yu suddenly noticed a line of small, easily overlooked text below "Talent":
[Wishing Card]
Each time you complete a job change, you will receive an extra Wish Card, which can be used to make one of the following wishes: gain talent, enhance skills, or enhance talents.
Note: This card is also known as the "Hanger-Up Card." Congratulations, you've become a truly unassuming hanger-up!
"Bang, bang bang!"
Lin Yu could hear his own heartbeat. He couldn't help it; he was too excited, and his breathing became rapid!
So this was his cheat code; awakening a sword spirit earlier was just normal.
Right now, Lin Yu has just completed his first job change and has a wish card!
Without much thought, Lin Yu chose to "wish for talent".
Of the three wishes, talent is undoubtedly the most precious. Even if one is already obtained, who would mind having another?
Lin Yu took a deep breath and waited quietly for two seconds.
Sure enough, another talent has appeared in the talent section:
"Armor-piercing blade."
Effect: The skill deals an additional 50% of the target's lost health as true damage, ignoring defense.
Note: This effect has reached its maximum and will not increase with level.
"Holy crap, holy crap!" Lin Yu felt like he was about to ascend to heaven on the spot.
If you ask what swordsmen fear most, it's two things: first, the enemy won't get close to you but will wear you down from a distance; second, the enemy has an abnormally strong defense that makes them impossible to damage.
With this talent, Lin Yu basically no longer needs to worry about the latter.
Anyone who has played games knows that in the face of true damage, everyone is equal. No matter how high your defense is, it's as if you're defenseless against true damage!
This talent is incredible!
At this moment, Lin Yu's smile was impossible to hide.
With a slight thought, I put away the control panel. It obstructs my view, so I usually put it away after checking the information.
Look around.
By this time, the people who entered the magic array at the same time had all completed their job changes, and their professions included carpenters, farmers, and repairmen.
They didn't seem very satisfied with the jobs they had switched to, and were looking at Lin Yu and Gao Yang with envious eyes.
Lin Yu turned his head and saw a large, black axe hanging above Gao Yang's head. It was wide and long and looked very imposing.
Lin Yu read out his profession: "Axeman".
Immediately, he commented: "It's a combat game, not bad."
Gao Yang smiled helplessly: "It is indeed good, but I don't like being Black Whirlwind. I still prefer a cooler profession. If only I could be a mage, swordsman, or gunslinger!"
As he said this, the other six students all looked at him with hostility.
Lin Yu patted Gao Yang on the shoulder: "Alright, think about how the other students feel."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Actually, the swordsman profession is just so-so."
Gao Yang: "..."
6 people: "..."
As they talked, patterns fell from the heads of Gao Yang and the others, merging into their bodies, just like Lin Yu.
Unlike others, Gao Yang and the others did not awaken any talent.
Of course, they didn't know that Lin Yu was talented, since only they could see each person's control panel.
As the group completed their class change, the magic circle stopped operating.
Outside the magic circle, several teachers began registering students and quickly recording their new professions.
At the teacher's signal, Lin Yu and the others stepped out of the magic circle.
A female teacher smiled at Lin Yu: "Congratulations, Lin Yu! You're the fifth person to successfully become a swordsman so far. Keep it up!"
Lin Yu smiled in response: "Thank you, Teacher Chen. I will work hard!"
The female teacher smiled even more brightly. Lin Yu had always performed very well and had never caused the teacher any trouble, except for advertising slogans.
"Wait in the square for a bit. The principal will be coming over to speak later," the female teacher said.
Lin Yu nodded.
He and Gao Yang exchanged a glance, and after a silent exchange, they both smiled and strode toward the archers.
Having gained strength, it's time to reason with people.
Gao Yang couldn't wait any longer. He leaped forward, raised his hand in a feint, and then, catching the archer off guard, grabbed him tightly with both hands.
"Don't worry about reasoning with him, he can't escape!"
Lin Yu immediately smiled brightly. As he unleashed the [Sword Qi] skill, a cloud-like white sword qi condensed into a phantom longsword in his palm, pointing at the archer.
The two worked together so well that it made people wonder if they had done this kind of thing before.
