Chapter 25 Target Beast Taming
Chapter 25 Target Beast Taming (Additional chapter for the Silver Alliance Leader Lazy Sheep)
There are many jobs to be found in this village, which can basically be divided into two categories.
The first category does not have any requirements and can get the job as long as you are willing to work hard.
Lumberjack, woodcutter, farmer, miner, shepherd, swineherd, harvester.
Relatively speaking, this type of profession does not require very high technical content. As long as you accept the errand, the NPC who gives you the errand will tell you what to do and you can learn entry-level professional skills for free.
The other type is a job that requires prerequisites to be met, and the prerequisites for each job are different.
The first is the militia. You need to find the militia captain to get the job. Your job is to protect the village from the threat of monsters, stand guard, and even follow the militia into the forest to clear out monsters.
Xiao Jie was very interested in this job. If he could kill monsters and level up with a group of militiamen, his safety would undoubtedly be greatly guaranteed.
However, when he heard that Xiao Jie wanted to join the militia, the militia captain Tie Qianli said that Xiao Jie was not strong enough to be a militiaman.
Xiao Jie guessed that this probably had a level requirement. He was only level one now, so it would definitely not work. If he reached level five or ten, he should be able to join.
Next is the hunter. Xiao Jie also wants to do this. After all, if he can learn archery, long-range professions will always be safer. Moreover, the hunter in the village has several hunting dogs. From this point of view, the hunter's job should be able to bring pets. Maybe he can learn skills such as animal taming. If there is a meat shield in front to resist monsters during the battle, it will undoubtedly be much safer.
However, the hunter also flatly rejected Xiao Jie's request to learn from him, without even mentioning the reason, and simply said that he had no interest in taking him in as a disciple.
This made Xiao Jie very depressed. The triggering conditions for this profession might be quite harsh.
The third one is the blacksmith, which is relatively simple because there is a senior named Wang Kai. He directly asked for the prerequisites. First, you have to pay five taels of silver as a disciple fee. In order to save up these five taels of silver, Wang Kai saved up for two years. In addition, you have to increase Zhou Tong's favorability to 80.
Xiao Jie was not very interested in this. Five taels of silver was fifty thousand yuan, which was too expensive.
The fourth one is the chef. This one is relatively cheaper, and the apprenticeship gift only costs 500 coins.
Cooking skills are still very practical. After all, food is a long-term consumable. Learning to cook can undoubtedly save a lot of money on buying food.
The fifth one is a fisherman, who needs to find an old man by the small river in the south of the village to receive the job. Through the conversation, it is learned that this guy is a drunkard and is particularly craving for wine. Therefore, Xiao Jie speculates that he should be able to get the job by giving him a pot of good wine. However, it is not certain what kind of wine is considered good wine.
The sixth one is the herbalist. You can learn the skill of herbalism by accepting the job from the owner of the herbal medicine shop. However, when applying for the job, the owner said that his perception is too poor and he can't do this job. It seems that the perception attribute must reach a certain standard. There is no way to do this unless you upgrade and add points.
The last profession is the night watchman. This profession is quite special. The worker does not have to work during the day but only needs to patrol the village at night. It sounds very dangerous.
But the pay is also high, earning five hundred coins a night.
This job was triggered by the village chief, but the village chief said that Xiao Jie's yang fire was not strong enough and working as a night watchman might cause trouble, so he rejected him.
Xiao Jie was a little confused about this prerequisite. Did he have to pray to his ancestors while burning incense so that they would not be disturbed by ghosts and gods?
But the BUFF given by our ancestors only lasts for seven days. Does this mission have a time limit?
It’s a pity that there is no profession that requires learning sword skills, which makes Xiao Jie a little disappointed.
It’s not that I have any special interest in swordsmanship, but mainly because in this world with gods, demons and monsters, the sword is undoubtedly of a higher level, and perhaps the upper limit will also be higher.
Looking at these dozen or so jobs comprehensively, the one Xiao Jie wants to do the most is undoubtedly being a hunter.
Archery + animal taming (suspected), this combination is perfect in the death game.
The advantages of ranged professions are needless to say, but the advantage of having a pet to cooperate in combat is truly huge.
Three wild dogs can make me, Yu Chengxian, lose my way, and two blank-board accounts, Han Luo and I, can kill a mighty Lost Soul Bandit, all because of our strength in numbers.
Sometimes a righteous two-on-one fight is more useful than any equipment or skill. But how do you trigger this Hunter mission?
Without any clues, Xiao Jie finally decided to ask Wang Kai. Wang Kai had been in the village for three years and had met so many players, so he must have a lot of information.
I’m afraid he will use the information to seek benefits, which would be troublesome.
Walking into the blacksmith shop, Wang Kai was still hammering his iron sword there. He was focused on moving bricks to make money and had no intention of upgrading to improve his strength.
"Hey, Brother Suifeng, you came to see me for something? Do you want to buy equipment or gold?"
"Do you know how to get a hunter's job?" Xiao Jie asked straight to the point.
"Hehe, brother, you want to bring a pet?" Wang Kai was quite perceptive.
"how do you know?"
"There are about 200 players coming and going in Ginkgo Village, and 150 of them want to bring pets. How do you think I know that?"
Xiao Jie thought to himself, okay, it seems that he is not the first person to think of this idea.
"Can hunters learn animal taming?"
"Of course you can, but it's not animal taming, it's dog training. It can only train dogs. It's good to use in the early stages, but it's useless at higher levels."
Xiao Jie couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, "What about archery?"
"This is actually very useful. At least before learning spells, archery is the most useful long-range skill. It is definitely worth learning it. Of course, I just heard it from others. I have never played it anyway."
"Then do you know how to receive a hunter's errand?"
Wang Kai smiled and said, "Of course I know. This is not really a secret. It was almost an open secret for a while. But not many people can do it. The hunter has a wife who has a strange disease. She hides in the house all year round and cannot see the sun. She needs a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng to prolong her life. As long as you give her a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, you can become Yang Baichuan's disciple.
Learn archery and dog training, and when you graduate, I'll give you a hunting dog as a gift."
This is a pretty good treatment, and you get a pet as a gift when you graduate.
"Where can I get a hundred-year-old ginseng?"
"Go to the deep valley to pick them. If you're lucky, you can pick some. The medicine shop in Ginkgo Village will sometimes sell them. They're not expensive, only ten taels of silver per piece."
Ten taels of silver! That's one hundred thousand yuan.
Xiao Jie was speechless for a while. This was too expensive.
"Do you want to buy some gold? It's only 100,000 yuan. In the early stage, you can learn dog training and a long-range weapon skill. It's definitely worth it."
Wang Kai is very dedicated and promotes his business whenever he gets the chance.
No thanks.
Xiao Jie quickly shook his head. He couldn't afford one hundred thousand dollars. Besides, he already had the [Enlightenment] BUFF. It was not worthwhile to spend money to learn a popular version of dog training techniques.
Xiao Jie glanced over the errands recorded in the notebook again and quickly used his associative ability.
To learn the art of animal taming you just have to do jobs related to taming animals, which shepherds and swineherds meet. There are no prerequisites for these two jobs, so you can work hard on these two professions. With my comprehension, I can even realize the swordsmanship by myself, so I don't believe that I can't figure out the art of animal taming.
