Chapter 62 Spoils of War Distribution
Chapter 62 Spoils of War Distribution
Looking at the three items falling in front of him, Xiao Jie couldn't help but feel conflicted.
The value of these three dropped items is not low, and each one is a good thing.
The skill of Blade Counter is absolutely powerful if used well. It is a magical skill against physical professions in the early stage. The only problem is that it requires high operation skills. Simple parrying is already difficult to do. If you want to use Blade Counter, it will definitely be more complicated and require a higher grasp of the timing, because Blade Counter only has an effect for a moment. If you fail to counter, you will end up getting stabbed.
The item that permanently increases one point of understanding is of enormous value. In the long run, it may be the most valuable of the three items.
After all, equipment can be replaced, and permanently increased attributes can always be effective.
Xiao Jie has experienced the huge benefits brought by enlightenment. If he can stack his comprehension to more than 20 points, it means that he can permanently maintain a level of enlightenment and can comprehend new skills anytime and anywhere. That would be awesome and of great benefit.
However, this thing also has a hidden danger. The item introduction says that completing the reading comprehension [may] gain 1 point of understanding. In other words, it is also possible that failure will result in nothing. Moreover, this thing can only be used once, so there is a risk of failure.
As for the magic talisman, it is a mixed blessing.
Speaking from the effect of the magic weapon alone, the three magic spells are certainly good, and are a magical skill for early stage development.
But its true value does not lie in this magic, but in its item description——【Perhaps some Taoist priests in the Taoist Palace will be interested in this.】
In other words, you might be able to use it to get in touch with certain Taoist temples. It's probably not possible to become their apprentice directly, but it should be possible to increase the reputation of a Taoist temple as a stepping stone.
In all the games Xiao Jie has played, the first step to unlock reputation is often the most difficult.
Although the subsequent tasks would not be easy and would require tremendous experience and risk, it would still be an opportunity to switch to a legal career.
However, this thing also has a hidden danger, that is its background setting. If it were in other games, Xiao Jie would not care at all. Even the most evil weapon would just have a few more words of background introduction. But in this death game, it is hard to say whether this kind of magical item will have any actual impact on people.
The value of these three things is really difficult to define and measure, and as for how to distribute them, it gives him a headache.
He had seen too many internal conflicts caused by uneven distribution of spoils. It was possible for a guild to fall apart because of a piece of equipment. This was the case with ordinary games, and a game like "Old Land" required even more caution.
So when I wanted to become an immortal and approached him to form a team, he warned me that the allocation of equipment must be decided by him.
But a vaccine is a vaccine. If the distribution is too unreasonable, it can easily cause internal conflicts.
His plan was of course the biggest contributor to our victory over the BOSS this time, but I am risking my life to become an immortal, so I must get something in return.
Xiao Jie's idea was to keep two for himself and give one to me, Yu Chengxian, and as for the copper coins, we would split them equally.
But which one to give him?
I didn't expect that before he could figure out how to start talking, I couldn't help but want to become an immortal.
"Brother Feng, can you please give me the magic talisman? I don't want anything else. I know this thing is of great value and cannot be measured by money, but in order to revive my brother, I must be shameless. Please.
If it doesn’t work, I can pay extra money.”
My tone of voice when I expressed my desire to become an immortal was urgent and sincere, even with a hint of pleading.
Xiao Jie was a little surprised. "I say, you are not going to use the magic talisman to revive your brother, are you? You read the diary when you were doing the mission before."
“No, I know the side effects of this magic talisman, but I think it must be related to some mysterious sect. Since it can revive Tian Li, it can definitely revive people in reality.
Although this thing seems to have side effects, hundreds of years have passed in the game. Maybe that secret sect has already developed a resurrection spell without side effects.
Anyway, this thing is very consistent with my gaming pursuit, so... I can add another 100,000!"
So that's the idea, Xiao Jie sighed.
He didn't care about it. He didn't really want the magic talisman anyway.
"How about this, the magic talisman is yours, and the other two are mine. I won't share the copper coins with you, and forget about asking for extra money. We're fighting this BOSS together, so there's no reason for me to ask you to spend extra money to buy equipment.
But I must remind you, since the real name of this thing is [Magic Talisman] instead of [Divine Talisman], there may be some hidden dangers, you must think carefully. In addition, if you are in the early stage of development, the magic effect is still very useful. If I let you use it, you must not save it. "
"Of course, of course. Thank you, Brother Feng. I won't say anything else. From now on, I will obey your orders."
This I want to become an immortal actually started to write.
Xiao Jie gave me the magic talisman to become an immortal, and put the remaining two books into his backpack.
As for the copper coins, Xiao Jie took them all without hesitation. This time he finally had a large income.
Then the two of them collected the copper coins dropped by the surrounding scarecrows. Xiao Jie calculated that he had earned more than two thousand coins.
However, I won’t be able to continue to upgrade the scarecrow in the future. It seems I have to change the map tomorrow.
Looking at his own experience points, Xiao Jie was surprised to find that he was only a little over 90 points away from reaching level five. Just now, Tian Youcai had contributed more than experience points to him, and those scarecrows had also contributed a lot, directly pushing his experience points to about %.
Look at the time, it's only half past three, so I can move up a level before it gets dark.
You need 15 points of strength to learn Blade Counter, so this time, use the five attribute points to add strength.
The two men ate some food to restore their hunger, then ran straight to the grove and started shooting the wild animals in the forest.
At 4:30 in the evening, the two of them finally reached level five.
After returning to the village, both of them were a little exhausted. They had been concentrating on leveling up and fighting monsters for a whole day, which was a great drain on their spirits. They urgently needed to rest.
But Xiao Jie still asked me to help him.
Xiao Jie added all his attribute points to strength without hesitation and learned the skill of Blade Counter.
Used it twice in the air.
The skill of Blade Counter is a bit like Parry, in that it must correspond to the direction of the opponent's slash to be effective. However, the difference is that with Parry, you can keep the weapon raised towards the air to block attacks from the corresponding direction.
However, Blade Counter can only be effective for a moment.
The difficulty of this task is extremely high, and requires extremely high judgment and reaction ability. Fortunately, after adding agility, my reaction ability has been greatly improved.
It is difficult, but the effect is also powerful. Once the blade counter is successful, it can directly break the opponent's moves and put the opponent into an unbalanced state.
There was probably a second where you couldn't do anything.
Xiao Jie asked me to change to a wooden stick, attack him, and practice blade counter.
After several attempts and being hit five or six times, I finally succeeded in turning the blade around.
clang!
The moment the opponent's weapon was deflected, my immortal body was exposed and I was completely frozen there.
Yes, if this trick is used well, it can definitely achieve the effect of an extreme counterattack at the critical moment. Of course, if it is not used well, that is another story.
I need to practice more in the future.
Within one second after a successful counter attack, you can use any skill on the enemy with a 100% chance of hitting the target.
It's a pity that it takes a lot of energy to cut it in half with one blow, otherwise it would be perfect if the blade could be reversed and cut in half with one blow.
However, if it is a blade counter followed by a normal attack, the damage seems to be very average.
In fact, if you force yourself to perform a combo, you can even cut it in half with one blow, because even if an ordinary person regains his balance, he often cannot react in time when faced with a blade that comes at him instantly, and he will take the blow head-on.
But if the opponent is a master, he might be able to use this few tenths of a second time difference to dodge.
Of course, it would be better to learn a skill that can instantly trigger high damage, to be used in conjunction with Blade Rejection. I am only level five now, and I have too few skills. I will definitely be able to learn skills that meet the standards in the future.
