198 Chapter 198 drawing a big cake
link accepted the mission without hesitation.
He had been longing for the elite mode for a long time, but he had never known how to turn from a normal NPC to an elite NPC.
After all, he had never been an NPC in his previous life.
He didn’t expect to see so many surprises after reaching level 20. It was like the ‘level 20 gift bag’ in those web-based games with rough graphics.
” when two attributes reach 50 points, you will be able to activate the elite mode. ”
lin ke looked at his current attributes.
Among them, endurance and agility were the highest at 35 points.
If he wanted to reach 50 points, he would need to increase each of them by 15 points.
There are still 13 potential points left from the upgrade.
link pondered for a moment. if he wanted to increase his attributes without leveling up, the easiest way was to level up the [ crane health-maintenance ].
The attributes that the red-crowned crane health-maintenance technique had increased after upgrading were endurance, agility, and intelligence, which just happened to correspond to the required attributes.
According to the attribute increase of two points per level of the immortal crane health-maintenance technique, he would be able to activate the elite mode when he reached level 9.
As a light green quality secret manual that could be cultivated at level 15, the experience required to level up the immortal crane health maintenance technique was much higher than the protective Dipper energy. Each level up required an additional 750 experience points.
Link did a quick calculation. Including the cost of his scholar class, he would need a total of 67500 exp.
it’s a pity that the immortal crane health-maintenance technique isn’t a book in the library, so I can’t enjoy the 25% experience reduction.
Link had just finished speaking when an idea flashed through his mind.
“Even though the immortal crane health-maintenance technique isn’t a book in the library, I’ll just have to find a way to turn it into a book in the library!”
Anyway, the director of the library was Benjamin’s wife. It was not too much for him to donate a batch of books to the library as ‘an outstanding private entrepreneur in the slums of Shandu’, right?
although it was a little complicated, link was excited at the thought of saving 20000 experience points.
after that, link buried himself in reading the crane form fist art and learned it.
[ you are reading the . current progress: 1% 2% 3% 99% ]
[ you have successfully comprehended the ” crane form style fist Art ” and acquired the skill ‘crane form style fist art Level 1’. ]
[ crane form style LV1: crane form tricky hand, extraordinarily agile. When the enemy is in a state of stun, slow, slow, or unconsciousness, it can launch 5 storm-like attacks within 2 seconds, each attack dealing 20 points of damage to the enemy (consumption: 10 energy/time)
after reading the description of the crane form style, link’s first reaction was to use acupoint charging and the crane form style to combo.
The effect of acupuncture point was to cause various abnormal control states to the enemy. Together with the crane form fist, it could cause explosive damage in a very short time.
If one were to look at the skills that link had just learned, the crane form could be said to have the highest damage.
Now that he had learned both the immortal crane health maintenance technique and the crane form fist art, he only needed to find a suitable time to donate these two secret manuals to the library.
link put the two books away and leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes to rest.
Now that he was a Hall Master, he didn’t have to do everything personally.
He had two main problems to face now.
one was to get familiar with the industrial structure of the original white crane hall as soon as possible and get qilin hall to run as soon as possible.
The second was to recover the lost territory of the water transportation gang.
By bribing old turtle, Lei Jiuzhi, and mi na, he had obtained the qualifications to join the water transportation gang.
However, it was obvious that his appearance had disrupted the Green Dragon sect’s plan of cultivating White Crane Hall into its puppet.
Although the Azure Dragon’s boss didn’t look scared at all during the meeting, in reality, Link’s appearance had forced the Azure Dragon to reveal the trump card he had used to bribe Thunder’s nine fingers, making the Azure Dragon pay the price.
When he was chatting with old turtle, he had commented that Azure Dragon was a formidable character.
This kind of person would definitely take revenge on link.
He had to recruit soldiers and buy horses to strengthen the Qilin Hall as soon as possible.
He opened his eyes and let out a breath. Link decided to clear his mind and rest. Only with enough rest could he think of a good idea.
Link entered the forum and started browsing through the posts.
He had been busy with other things for the past few days. He only browsed the forum every day, and his attention on the players had decreased slightly.
Link scanned through all the hot posts in the past few days and learned a lot.
First of all, there was a level limit for closed beta testing, which was level 10.
The quests received after level 10 only gave monetary rewards and no experience.
The one who discovered this was a player called [ white ticket water monster ].
This player worked hard from morning to night, investing all the experience he had gained into leveling up. After 11 days, he finally reached level 10. However, he found out that after reaching level 10, the system prompted that he could no longer level up, and the rules of the closed beta were announced.
When the player reaches level 10, all subsequent missions will not receive experience rewards. The original experience rewards will be converted into money and will be given out together with the original mission’s money reward.
To put it bluntly, completing missions did not give experience, but they gave a lot of money.
link looked at the player’s name, [ white ticket water monster ], and his lips couldn’t help but curve into a smile.
It seemed that in the places he could not influence, everything was going according to the track set in his memory of his previous life.
In his memory from his previous life, this player was the first to reach level 10.
When the average players were around Level 6 – 8, he had jumped to level 10, leaving a bunch of senior players from powerful guilds and Hall of the exalted players behind. He had also won the title of the first ‘Max-level’ player in the closed beta.
at this moment, in the wasteland section of the forums, many players were surprised and curious about how this player had leveled up so quickly.
In the face of the tsunami of questions in the post, the main character had no intention of coming out to explain.
However, this was not a problem for link.
this player called ‘water monster with a white ticket’ was born in faye’s icy lake experimental base after entering the game. he was then captured for research.
the researchers who were studying the central faya experimental base discovered that this inhumans had a strong learning ability. he quickly learned the principles of mechanical assembly.
Later, through communication and research, he found out that this Inhumans had the ability to resurrect after death.
Since Daye’s frozen lake base was underwater, there were no other resurrection points around it except for the medical room. This was why the ‘white ticket water monster’ could only choose to resurrect in the medical room.
In the end, the ‘white ticket Hydra’ had no choice but to join the Faye Army and become a research subject.
as the saying goes, misfortune may not be a blessing.
Although he had lost his freedom, the researchers in the farnight research base would assign various tasks and experiments to the ‘white ticket water monster’ every day. Through these tasks and experiments, his experience increased rapidly. At the same time, his abilities as a Gunmaster would also be enhanced.
there were all kinds of assembly drawings and an endless supply of parts in the experimental base. the items produced were so impressive that even the chief of the modern combat force of faya was alarmed and wanted to make an exception to include him in the army.
For a time, the White ticket Hydra became a hot commodity for the Faye military.
All sorts of resources were thrown at him without any cost.
However, his outstanding performance in the closed beta didn’t bring this player any good luck.
After the start of the open beta, Inhumans descended on the wasteland planet in large numbers. The officials of the magic Night also took back all the resources that they had spent on the water monster and started to rope in other Inhumans.
After losing his ‘protagonist’ aura, this player quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Link then checked the other posts.
Many posts were discussing the game’s instance dungeon.
In addition to the [hotel gunfight] that wind-chasing Wolf found some time ago, players in other places also triggered some basic Dungeons.
However, without exception, no one had successfully cleared the dungeon.
As [gunfight hotel] was the first dungeon to open, it naturally received more attention.
There were also many nearby players who came after hearing the news, but they were exterminated in the dungeon.
Link couldn’t help but laugh.
[hotel gunfight] wasn’t that easy to clear.
The city prohibited the use of explosives, and the players ‘levels were low, so it was difficult to get their hands on things like grenades.
if he wanted to take care of ten enemies, he had to be good at one aspect.
It could be the hit rate of the gun, it could be the speed, and it could also be the HP.
In Lin Ke’s opinion, players would need to be around level 9 to 10 to be able to clear a basic dungeon.
In addition to these messages, there was one more conspicuous message, which was that the closed beta testing was about to end.
Link already knew about this, otherwise he wouldn’t have let the bandit leader be Fu’s assistant.
This move was to let the people of the Steal Liang pass on their ‘business treasure’ to Ah Fu as soon as possible. Even if he couldn’t take charge of a section, at the very least, he would have some understanding of the work at hand.
The closed beta would last five days. According to the 1:3 time ratio between reality and the game, it would be 15 days in the game.
It was already the 11th day, and there was not much time left for the players.
“Link, Ah Fu and the others are here. If you don’t have anything else to say, I’ll let them up.”
From the courtyard below the study, a macaw’s voice could be heard, which quickly pulled Link’s attention away from the forum.
even the chirping birds in the small forest behind the study were shocked by the sound and did not dare to speak.
“Let them come up.”
In a short while, Fu, Bandit Liang Ren and Zhui Feng came up together.
Just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, her eyes darted around, finding everything new and interesting.
Just as he walked to the desk, Zhui Feng looked at the huge calligraphy hanging on the wall and subconsciously read it out.
“F * ck Yingluo.”
After saying that, wind-chasing Wolf suddenly realized the problem and quickly covered his mouth, his heart was extremely shocked.
This Hall Master of White Crane Hall, he tongyan, was too fierce. He had actually placed these four words in the study room. It was really hard to explain in a few words.
Dao Liang Ren’s face was filled with black lines as he poked Zhui Feng’s arm and explained,”This is written as ‘Spring Pond beauty’, what’s with’ f * ck you’?”
Zhui Feng touched the back of his head with an embarrassed expression. This difference was too great.
Link smiled. Wind had the same reaction as him.
“Has Allan distributed all the players?”
Fu nodded. the 39 members of White Crane Hall have all been selected. He also explained the characteristics and strengths of each member. It seems like he really knows them well.
Link looked at the bandit. in the next few days, you will assist AFU and familiarize him with the business streets and other industries under Qilin Hall. AFU, you should also focus on learning from the bandit. From now on, you will take over Qilin Hall’s business. Don’t Let Me Down.
Fu immediately became serious and nodded firmly. “Don’t worry, boss. I’ll do my best!”
“Don’t worry, Hall Master, I will definitely teach you everything I know and I will not let you down.”
“I know that you like to fight and fight, so I arranged for you to be on the front line to collect rent.”
Wind’s eyes were filled with gratitude. He was about to speak but was stopped by link.
this job seems to require violence, but in fact, it’s easy to collect information by walking around the streets. That’s why I’m giving you the position of a sub-chief so that you can collect more information about other gangs on the front line. This will help you understand the structure of the slums more, and when you’re in charge in the future, you’ll know the root of the problem.”
Hearing this, Zhui Feng’s eyes lit up.
From what the boss said, Wanwan wanted him to be in charge of a region in the future!
Zhui Feng’s mind had already filled with a big play.
He started off as a small leader to understand the structure and situation of the slums. Then, he became the leader of a small gang. As Link’s status rose, so did his.
More importantly, as long as he became the leader of a small gang, he would have the right to recruit people on his own!
When the time came for the open beta, he would bring in the players from the miracle Guild. At that time, he would be able to live a good life and have his own territory. Wouldn’t that be great?
Link found it funny that the two of them couldn’t hide their joy.
Who would have thought that the Guild Master of one of the top ten guilds, a merchant with a net worth of billions, would be so happy about his ‘void promise’?
Of course, link wasn’t lying to them.
The reason why players chose NPCs was because there were benefits to be gained.
To the players, as long as they dared to show their health bar, even a God would be killed for them.
But at the same time, Zhui Feng and Dao Liang Ren’s faces also showed apprehension. They looked at each other and stopped talking.
Link fiddled with the paperweight on the table and asked nonchalantly,”If there’s anything, just say it. Don’t be so coy with me.”
Dao Liang Ren took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.
“Boss, there’s something we have to tell you. We won’t be able to stay in Shandu for more than a few days. In another four days, the passage between our Blue Planet and the abandoned planet will be closed. We can’t stay on the abandoned planet. However, we promise that we will definitely return in October!”
Even though Lin Ke already knew about this, he was still surprised that the two of them would tell him about it.
“It’s fine. Since you’ve chosen to follow me, and everyone in the sect has seen your performance during this period of time, I’ll keep your positions. I, link, will not mistreat any of my brothers.”
When Dao Liang Ren and Zhui Feng heard these words, they finally let out a sigh of relief and revealed a happy smile at the same time-they had not followed the wrong person this time.
With the closing of the closed beta, the two of them were also in a hurry.
Moreover, some players had asked the game company’s customer service on the forum and learned that the game world was self-developed. They had clearly stated that after the closed beta ended, the game world would still run as usual in the month and a half before the open beta.
Although the closed beta and open beta testing in the real world had only been a month and a half, the time flow between the real world and the game world was 1: 3. In the game, it would take almost five months!
On the one hand, shutting down the server would cost a lot of energy. On the other hand, it was to minimize the advantage of closed beta players and ensure the fairness of the game as much as possible.
They had already made a name for themselves by following link. If they went offline during the closed beta testing, they didn’t know what changes would happen in the game in the next five months. When they came back in after the open beta testing, link would treat them as deserters or accept them again.
So after hesitating for a while, the two of them decided to tell the truth.
Now that they had received Link’s promise, they were so excited that they were on the verge of tears.
Boss’s words were too touching.
