Chapter 430: The Land Forsaken by God (19) (1st + 2nd update) [VIP]
Hector worked diligently as an adventurer in Besser for several days according to the plot, and the story of Princess Disney changed from an urban legend to a legend in Besser.
Physically beautiful.
After all, the special effects created by Dermis are really dazzling, and you can attract everyone's attention just by walking on the street.
Hector's sense of shame has been almost worn away as time goes by. Now he can wear this dress without batting an eyelid and accept or hand over commissions. He calmly introduces himself to everyone as "How do you know that my teacher and his mistress are so loving?"
Then everyone in the city knew that Princess Disney's teacher and his wife were very loving.
Under the extremely high study pressure and the threat of women's clothing, Hector quickly completed the study of elementary magic for wizards at a speed that could be described as genius.
"This is the advanced Fireball spell, Fire Judgment," [Grudge is Heavier than Ghost] marked the paragraphs of this spell for him, and quickly wrote a paragraph on the parchment with a feather pen, "Fire Judgment and the Wind Blade in Wind Magic can be combined to create a combination skill Fire Blade, and combined with the Tornado in Wind Magic, it can also create a Fire Tornado. These two skills are sewn together from existing magic spells. They are not formally coded skills, so there is a certain success rate when using them. But the advantage is that your opponent may not have seen these magics before, so you can catch them by surprise."
It seems like he has changed his personality these days and goes home as soon as it's time to get off work, which shocked many of his colleagues at the surrounding workstations.
"I went to see a Chinese doctor for my cold last time," [Grudge is heavier than a ghost] said casually, "The doctor said that I'm not in good health and I can't work too hard recently."
"Then you should go home quickly," my colleague waved his hand, and he packed up the things on the table, stood up with his bag, and half-seriously sighed, "If you don't work overtime, our pressure will be reduced a lot."
Who knows what it feels like to have a file king next to your workstation?
It's clear that you can leave work directly when it's time to get off work, but your colleagues in the office are all working hard. Whoever stands up from his workstation and leaves the office at this time will be the first to stand out.
Most people are working overtime, and the few who have finished their work don't dare to leave first. The final result is that everyone has to wait until the leader leaves before everyone can leave work one by one.
In the past few days, there is someone in the office who actually packs up and leaves work at a scheduled time. Everyone else in the office is overjoyed and eager to go home, so they also leave at a scheduled time. The entire office is immediately empty when it is time to get off work every day.
[He is more resentful than ghosts] Naturally, he doesn't know that he has improved the happiness index of his colleagues in the entire office. He gets off work every day and then works in the game, studying his high school notes and then bringing them in to teach his new apprentice.
"So magic can be combined with each other?" Hector drew inferences from one example, "For example, water ball and wind blade tornado can also be combined to form water blade and water tornado?"
"It's possible in theory, but it's not easy to implement in practice," [Grudge is Heavier than Ghosts] thought about his high school notes, "I tried it before, and only the combination of fire and wind has the highest success rate. Water and wind can be combined, but the success rate of the skill is very low."
"Why?" Hector wondered.
"I don't know either……"
[Grudge is heavier than ghosts] Before he could finish his words, Delmis, who had been sitting next to him without saying a word, suddenly spoke up, "Because the water element is fluid, its combination with any other element is unstable. If you want to make water present the effects of a blade or a tornado, you can only manipulate a single element."
"Teacher?" Hector turned around silently, "You didn't sleep..."
Every day when [Grudge is Heavier than Ghosts] taught him magic, Delmis and his partner sat in the recliners beside him without saying a word. At first he was trembling with fear, but later he found that his teacher was just sitting there with his eyes closed and had no interest in joining in the teaching, so he slowly felt relieved.
This was the first time his teacher spoke during teaching.
"I haven't slept yet," Bai Jinshu raised his head from Huai Jiamu's shoulder and scanned the spells on the table without much interest, as if he could see through what Hector was thinking. "What you learned before was too basic. What can I say?"
If you let a doctoral supervisor listen to kindergarten enlightenment teaching, he will be too lazy to interrupt, right?
"If you want to go further in magic, I don't recommend you learn this kind of combination spells that are forced together," he stretched his fingers forward and picked up the notes written by [Grudge is Heavier than Ghosts] from the table. "In the field of advanced magic, the lethality of spells is positively correlated with the net value of elemental factors. In my magician tower, every year we reject a large number of mages who used too much mixed magic when they first learned magic, causing them to lose their perception, control, and even cohesion over a single element."
But most mages cannot reach this step, and among the mages who can reach this step, many have not actually realized it, so that when they are ready to go further, the door to the higher level has already been closed to them.
In the world of mages, knowledge is not circulated for free. Knowing one more spell than others means having an extra chance to survive in battle. Often, apart from basic spells, further information is only circulated in the Mage Tower, so mages have to learn step by step.
"If you want to use a fire blade, the best way is to gather only the fire element, change the element's display method from the 'ball' you are used to to 'blade', and change the summoning method from 'gathering burst' to 'fixed point emission'."
There was a flash of fire in Bai Jinshu's hand, and a fire blade as thin as a cicada's wing suddenly flew towards Hector. Before he could react, the fire blade flashed the moment it touched the tip of his hair, and instantly disappeared in the air.
A strand of purple hair floated in the air and fell onto the table in front of Hector.
Hector was stunned for a few seconds, covered his forehead, and picked up the hair from in front of the table.
Just now, when the fire blade touched the ends of his hair, he even felt a flash of fierce flames.
For Delmis, an attack that had already been launched could be retracted at will. Even the most violent fire element could be controlled with ease in his hands, and could burn off one of his hairs without damaging the skin behind it.
Is this his teacher?
"Don't you feel," Bai Jinshu looked at [Grudge is Heavier than Ghost], "since you started using these combined spells, your attacks when using nitrogen magic are not as good as before?"
[The resentment is heavier than the ghost] was also stunned for a few seconds.
"I..." He frowned, and suddenly remembered a sentence he saw when he was reading his notes a few days ago.
The specific memory is already fuzzy, but in the notes, after playing a promotion match, the underage mage did write down a strange discovery -
[After using a self-created skill, the critical hit rate and hit rate in normal combat will decrease].
He always thought that this was because these combination skills were not recorded in the official skills, so using these skills was equivalent to a bug, which affected the database.
Therefore, in subsequent games, except for situations that required surprise, he generally no longer used these stitching skills.
Many years later, he had forgotten this little detail. When he was teaching the skill to his NPC junior brother in the game, he mentioned it again, but was told the real answer to this "bug".
Could it be that the combination spell affected his ability to aggregate high-level single-element skills, resulting in a reduction in critical strikes?
"Teacher, I..." He flipped through his notes for a long time. When he suddenly looked up to ask more questions, he found that Delmis had already walked away without him knowing when.
"No one ever mentioned this at the beginning," [Grudge is Heavier than Ghosts] frowned, tapping his fingers on the table unconsciously, "I always thought this was a bug that the game deliberately retained..."
He even mentioned these self-created spells in the tutorial posts, and it sparked a small wave of self-created spells. Later, everyone discovered that the trigger rates of most of these self-created skills were not high. There were few mage players, and even fewer who could memorize all the spells before creating their own. This trend slowly faded away.
As all types of games are becoming more and more mature, games like Breath of Slenkmed, which are too realistic and require players to memorize spells when casting spells, have been eliminated by the market.
Nowadays, the various professional skills of mainstream holographic games are infinitely similar to those of the keyboard and mouse games of that time, which greatly simplifies the difficulty of players learning new skills. In the "Breath of Slenkmed", mage players collectively memorized spells; blacksmith players collectively learned to forge iron; there were real thieves among the rogue players, who were directly captured by professional police players in the game; the era when a boxing champion played a warrior pvp and reached the national finals, and found that his opponent was his own junior fellow student seems to be gone forever.
Now thinking about it, was this holographic world back then... a little too real?
[The resentment is heavier than the ghost] Suddenly stood up from the stool.
"Senior brother?" Hector was shocked by his action.
"I'm going to try to beat the alchemy practice doll!" [The Resentment Is Heavier Than a Ghost] said this and walked quickly towards the door.
In the Adventurer's Inn, after Bai Jinshu left the room where Hector was studying, he sat down next to the exploration team members with a calm face, without realizing how shocking the truth he had just said was.
The mages on the barrage have all exploded:
[Oh shit, oh shit oh shit, is this true?! ]
[What Deshen said is definitely not false! ! ! ]
[I never knew I couldn’t use combination magic…]
[Most people don't know! The Mage Tower where I am now has special records of mixed magic. Our area hasn't produced a great magician for hundreds of years!]
[I looked at the parchment scroll in my hand and fell into deep thought...]
[I'm wondering why. When I tried to enter the Mage's Tower a few years ago, I was rejected without even being looked at.]
[So this is the truth behind why great magicians are more likely to emerge from a family of magicians? ]
[Now that we have come to this, I will change my username and whisper that this damage is irreversible. Once you use mixed magic, your perception of single element magic will be permanently reduced.]
【？ ？ ？ Please explain the previous part clearly. 】
[I wonder if anyone in this project knows this? ]
[It is easy to imagine that when the news of a big boss in this space was so popular, besides us low-level mages, there must be a big boss coming... Otherwise, I have been explaining who was being manipulated by God De before. ]
[So, Deshen just revealed... a big secret of the mage world? ]
[He will probably be hunted down by the many mages and noble families who concealed this news...]
[Do you think De Shen is afraid of these pursuits? ]
On the screen, Bai Jinshu tapped the table with his fingers: "Guan Hongyan."
"Huh?" Guan Hongyan turned around.
"That friend you know," Bai Jinshu said in a faint voice, "when did this subspace in their organization appear?"
"This year?" Guan Hongyan thought for a moment, "In the past few years, their accountants hadn't discovered this world."
"No," Bai Jinshu shook his head, "You can ask them to check again. This subspace appeared much earlier."
A normal game world should follow the author's settings. One skill corresponds to one code. Different skills lock onto different enemies and cause different damage according to the skill characteristics and caster values. How is it possible for a game to create its own skills?
Without going into the question of how to implement it, creating your own skills is to split two spells apart and reassemble them, rather than making minor changes to a single code. The code corresponding to the skill created in this way is originally empty, so after hitting the enemy, it is impossible for the system to determine the damage.
This world should have had a set of rules that run independently under a set of codes a long time ago.
This time is much earlier, at least when players are still active here.
But if that is the case, why is it only now being discovered by accountants?
*
For Hector, every morning starts with a room piled with orders.
Today he continued to wake up to the morning light and the sound of prayers from the distant Church of the God of Light, and unexpectedly discovered that there were no new commissions in his room.
"Brother Yun Guang?" He opened the door curiously and bumped into Yun Guang who was passing by with a bag. "Don't you have to take any commissions today?"
"Hmm? No need," Yun Guang saw that the person asking him was Hector, so he stopped and answered, "We are ready to leave Besser City and go to our next destination."
There are no more clues in the city of Besse.
After Bai Jin finished his words yesterday, the exploration team members fell into deep thought. Yun Guang spoke first, "So this world is likely to have its own consciousness as a holographic game long ago?"
"Probably," Bai Jinshu said without being too sure, "I'm not sure."
"Then let's push in this direction for now..." Bai Mo thought, "Guan Hongyan, can you ask more about the time when this space appeared?"
"I'm asking," Guan Hongyan waved her watch, "but you haven't replied to me yet."
It’s already late, so it’s normal that the other party doesn’t reply to the message.
Everyone made a lot of speculations based on Bai Jinshu's guess, and finally returned to the current clues.
The four professional instructors in Besai City all disappeared, and there were rumors about the purple-haired hero, the closing and opening of the kingdom of God...
Finally, everyone agreed that there was no more useful information in Besser City for the time being, and Hector's popularity had already been established, so everyone could move on to the next city.
Although the destination is still uncertain, the sooner we travel through the four continents, the sooner we can open the door to the kingdom of God.
Whoever is behind the door should know part of the truth.
So today, no one prepared any commissions for Hector, so Hector, who used to run errands as soon as he opened his eyes every day, finally never woke up from a pile of commissions again.
"Let's go to the Adventurer's Guild this morning and hand in the remaining commissions from yesterday, and then we can leave," Yun Guang looked at Hector, "We'll pack up here, can you go and hand it in alone?"
The Adventurer's Guild is very close to the inn.
"No problem." Hector nodded, and skillfully took the remaining commission forms and walked towards the Adventurer's Guild.
The tellers of the Adventurer's Guild are now familiar with his presence. As soon as Hector stood in front of the counter, the teller skillfully opened the register: "Hello, how do you know that my teacher and his wife are very loving, sir, what commission do you want to accept this morning?"
"No," Hector handed over a few lists in his hand, "I will leave Besser City after handing in these commissions."
"Leaving?" The teller congratulated him habitually, "I wish you a smooth journey on your new journey."
Adventurers are a profession that explores the continent. For them, it is rare to stay in one city for too long.
For the tellers of the Adventurer's Guild, the coming and going of adventurers is normal.
"Without adventurers clearing these ordinary commissions in large quantities in the future," the teller handed him the payment for these commissions, "we won't be used to it either."
"I won't be used to it either," Hector replied sincerely, "I wish you good luck in your future work."
He was also very reluctant to leave the city of Bessa.
Nonsense, he has been running errands here for several days wearing this outfit, and the people in the city have gradually changed from being shocked to being accustomed to it. Some people even come to talk to him about long hair care and dragon language skills. If he leaves here and goes to other places now, won’t he have to face those shocked looks again?
Although his heart is strong now, he wants to die when he thinks about having to repeat this process again...
Hector took the reward with a heavy heart and walked towards the hotel, just in time to meet his teammates who had just checked out.
"Let's go," Guan Hongyan held a standard map produced by a vendor in Besser City, "Can we go to Cyril now?"
This time when they left Besser City, it was not like when they left Rossburg and accepted a commission from another place. Everyone had a clear destination, which was to go to the next main city. Naturally, they did not need to accept a commission or follow any caravan.
"Let's get out of the city first." Bai Jinshu took the lead and walked towards the city gate.
When they passed the commercial street, it was still as prosperous as when they arrived, except that the white-bearded old man in the magic shop had turned into a dwarf who was working hard at forging iron. When the dwarf saw them, he quickly shrank behind the door.
"The whereabouts of the Grand Mage are unknown," Zhao Yinglai said as he walked and combed his hair. "It's not clear whether he disappeared with the other three professional mentors. Will sixteen professional mentors come out when we open the gate to the Kingdom of God?"
"Not likely," Su Hao said with a cold joke, "I don't think there's enough room for those old people in God's Kingdom."
"There's room for us." Huai Jiamu suddenly spoke.
"Huh?" Su Hao didn't react.
"God's Kingdom," Huai Jiamu looked at Bai Jinshu sincerely, justifying the size of the Kingdom of God, "God's Kingdom is not that small."
Barrage:
[So you've been there, right?]
[Ah... De Shen's partner has been there, rounding it off, De Shen has been there. ]
[So Deshen can't really be a god, right? How can the Foundation sign a god? ]
[I don’t think it’s necessarily a god… but I must have been there. ]
[And it was hit...]
[Eh, come to think of it, why are there so few people here today? ]
[Because after Deshen said that news yesterday, most people's mentality collapsed. Now many people are probably seeking revenge or trying to find someone to verify it, and they don't have time to watch the live broadcast...]
So will this news get out?
[I am pessimistic. You should know that there are few mages on the pyramid. One reason is that there are few people with such talent. Another reason is that most families and mages with powerful spells or inheritance will block the upward paths and news. The news that God De said yesterday is one of the upward paths they blocked. But after you know this news and clearly know that you can ascend, will you voluntarily announce this news to let others, even those who have not yet come into contact with the world of mages and are most likely to become great mages through this channel, know the truth? ]
[Another thing is that although we have many investors here, there are actually very few in various worlds. If your status is high in this world, then you will not tell others in order to protect your own group. If your status is low, then after you tell others the news, you will not be able to resist the information blockade of other great wizards and big families, so it will be useless to spread it.]
There were discussions about yesterday's news in the barrage, and in the unknown space, everyone finally walked out of Besser City and came to the wild.
"Dermis," Yun Guang volunteered, "is it still a ghost ship?"
"No," Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked behind Hector, "Before leaving here, there is still a tail that needs to be dealt with."
He waved his hand slightly, and the ground behind Hector suddenly shook.
As Hector and the surrounding adventurers exclaimed, a man suddenly emerged from the ground and instantly floated in front of everyone.
"Aren't you the ..." Hector identified him, "the deceitful shopkeeper?"
Isn't this the white-bearded wizard he met when he entered the city of Besser before, and the black-hearted shop owner who was later exposed by his teacher?
Hector is no longer the same as before. He looked at the strange-looking alchemical vessel in the other person's hand, and then looked at the land behind him: "Are you following me?"
What does this person want to do by following him?
"You don't want to take revenge, do you?" Hector asked in shock, "How dare you come?"
He thought that everyone should choose to run away after coming into contact with his teacher.
The other party gestured.
"What do you mean?" Hector said alertly, "What do you want to do?"
"Who is this person?" Guan Hongyan asked curiously, "Do you know him?"
"A shopkeeper who almost cheated me before," Hector said briefly, "I don't know why, but now he's following me."
If his teacher hadn't caught this guy, he wouldn't even have noticed that he was being followed.
"Tracking..." Guan Hongyan repeated softly, "Isn't this the main plot?"
She looked at Xu Zichen beside her.
In the main storyline of the game, when the player leaves Besse City to complete the commission, he finds that someone is following him, and then he discovers the attack on Besse City.
Now there is a person following them. Although no one will attack Besser City due to the passage of time, does this mean that...
After their efforts over the past few days, Hector was recognized as the "protagonist" by this world?
The inevitability of the plot emerged.
The author has something to say:
The one who received a bunch of red envelopes yesterday morning was not JJ who drew the lottery, but the severe procrastinator Hantang who finally made up for the late apology red envelopes that he had not sent out before...
Because the update time of this book has always been 9pm and has never changed... After being late a few times at the beginning of last year, in order to push myself to be on time, Hantang said in the author's post that if I was late again, I would send out red envelopes, posting the first 20 comments from readers who have been waiting for updates + 20 randomly selected comments from other readers (that is, the first 20 + random 20 comments every day), and then I got used to being late (eyes moved)
So today it’s still the top 20 + random 20… Hantang needs to work hard to resume updating at 9 o’clock (holding head)!!!!!!
