Chapter 10 LVUP (Part 2)
"Super... no, I have a new magic position!" Link almost let it go again. He held the inheritance and asked what skills should I choose next.
Iris smiled bitterly. When he gave up his identity as a son of nature, the gods took back all the gifts. He could not see the inheritance. It was a divine grace that only the son of nature possessed.
Knowing that Eris had always been quite guilty of being forced to give up his identity as the son of nature, Link comforted him that bloodline inheritance was more important. If he stepped down, he would have successors to make up for it. If his bloodline was broken, there would be nothing left.
Iris shook his head repeatedly, "For the son of nature, giving up the God's grace is a great shame and a betrayal. If I were not the Glowing Royal Family, I would have been unable to protect the land. Including Hull, the druids respected my new king, not myself."
"I don't care about that hell of glory. No matter what the future is, you will always be my mentor." Link hated the rigid dogma the most in his life. Compared to the birdman who often runs out of sight, Eris is the one who truly assumes the role of a mentor, approachable and strict with himself.
Link's words stunned Eris. He was interrupted by Hull who rushed over before he could say thank you. As soon as the birdman landed, he felt the breath of the undead that had not completely dissipated and hurriedly asked Eris what had happened.
"It's Frost Han." Iris briefly explained what had just happened.
"The bastard ran to the border of the guardian land to test it, just to force us to withdraw troops from the north." Hull's hatred of the undead was far more than that of humans, and his gritted teeth was no less than that of the emotions that Eris had just revealed.
"Wait...you said it mentioned the law of cause and effect?" Hull's gaze made Link feel uncomfortable.
"It's not wrong. Link first recognized its identity, and then Shuanghan replied with a divine enlightenment to trigger the law of cause and effect."
After Eris' affirmation, Hull's eyes looked at Link even more strange. When he saw the inheritance he was holding in his arms, he asked again, "Have you improved your ability?"
"Hmm? Ah~ Oh..." Link thought paused for a few seconds before he realized that what Birdman said was that he had upgraded. He looked down and then noticed that there were several rings on the page where the white deer was in the background, with the skill name written in it, and the two at the bottom were blank.
Is this the new spell position added? Why is the number of it smaller again?
"I remember that because humans have fewer primitive spell positions, they will get two spell positions every time they increase their ability, right?" Hull turned around and looked at Eris, who nodded.
There are really two... This is too miserable. There are four of them at the beginning, but they have been upgraded to two. Link is still complaining about the poor talent of human beings, and he was shocked by Hull.
"Don't be unsatisfied. The elves, known as the favorite of the gods, only have one magic position to improve their abilities. Elemental creatures only have one magic position every two times. What are the dissatisfactions about whether you get two at a time? This is a special treatment given by the gods to make up for the poor human qualifications."
It turns out that the two magic positions are still preferential... Link innocently covered his beating forehead and looked at the glowing optional skills on the skill book. I don’t know what to choose.
"Although Isol's talent has been collected, it's one of them. It's all your fault! It's hard to arrange for his talent to be so messy." Iris touched his forehead, and he really shouldn't have agreed to Hull's crazy idea of trying the new winner first.
"What's the difficulty? The first option, by gathering the defense abilities of two Isols, you can get extra rewards for elemental protection. The second option, by gathering the auxiliary abilities of two Isols, you can get natural allies. The third option, by choosing Gasos's two auxiliary abilities, in addition to the precise reward, there are also primary avatars."
Link was dizzy when he heard this. What to get together? What to add?
"I told you not to mess around, let's see, he was confused."
"Don't worry about that, you just need to choose one of the three options I just proposed." Hull ignored Link's doubts, and asked him to choose one of the three options.
"If you don't explain it clearly, he will be even more chaotic in the future." Iris, who could not bear it, pushed Hull away and personally solved Link's doubts. "Listen to me, each talent is divided into three categories: attack, defense, and assistance. Like incarnation, every three abilities in the same category can receive an additional reward. Can you understand?"
Link nodded, thinking that if you point out three skills on the same day, you can get an extra skill? This is good! Add one extra skill to each upgrade. Wouldn't it be super elves and elemental creatures if you keep going? If this is true, how could the elves have the title of the darling of the gods? Thinking carefully, Link thinks that the problem should be in the lifespan of humans. There is an upper limit for any game upgrade. The lifespan of elves is at least 700, and generally over 1,000. In ancient times, humans were not as long as modern people, living to sixty would be considered longevity.
"Have you considered it, which one to choose?" Hull's urging brought Link back to reality.
Although he has decided to fully cultivate the main talent Isol first, judging from the current three options, it is better to use the two newly obtained magic points to Gasos's talent. In addition to the additional reward skills, he can also obtain a flying transformation. If he trains physical fitness, he will fly better and has a faster speed. He can take into account both the two borders that can kill monsters in one day.
"I thought about it. Since I have learned Hawkeye, I can't just waste it like this. I can get two Gassus' defensive abilities and one more incarnation." Link's decision was supported by two mentors, which is indeed the best choice at present.
Egasus is Hull's talent, and Eris asks Birdman to help Link choose the right skills.
"Gasos is the god of atmospheric and thunder, symbolizing change, the element is speed, and the main attribute is agility. There are almost no abilities related to healing. All auxiliary functions are very practical, and are more comparable to Isol of the main defense and heal than the other two elements." When it comes to his job, Hull's attitude is particularly rigorous. "I suggest you give priority to the Wind of Swift and Mirror. The former can increase speed, while the latter can change into a clone that is exactly the same as you to confuse the enemy. The reward given as the first level of additional ability is the accuracy of increasing hit rate."
Link returned to the talent tree, clicked Gassus's name, and a winged eagle appeared on the page that was turned back. One of the three rings said Hawkeye, and the remaining two were blank. Among the optional skills that were glowing on the right, the Wind of Swift and Mirror were ranked in the front position, and you could see it at a glance. Tap the skill with your finger, and [Wind of Swift] and [Mirror] immediately appeared in the two blank rings. A white light connected the three skills together. A circle filled with skills appeared on the page with the Eagle as the background. It was indeed what Hull said [Precise].
After the new spell position was selected, the background of Gassus Eagle flashed and became brighter.
It still doesn't feel enough...
Although he was a little greedy to think about this, Link still wanted to get more skills. With his current strength, he could only abuse the minions. When he really encountered a powerful enemy, he could only apply oil to his feet. The natural son, who is known as the strongest gods, fled to the enemy. Not to mention Hull, even a good-tempered Iris would not agree.
Well~ By the way! Haven't tried a new incarnation yet.
Link murmured Gasos in his heart, and then he turned into a much smaller bird. He flapped his wings hard, and after a few flapping, he actually flew up. He excitedly circled around Iris and Hull's heads.
It's true that flying is even more enjoyable!
Before he was happy, Hull grabbed him and said, "Since you are full of energy, continue to purify a few undeads."
"Aren't the corpse witch and the undead he brought have been purified?" It was thanks to the Pillar of Earth. If it weren't for it, Link would not have been able to purify so many low-level undeads in a while, not to mention that there was a corpse witch possessed by the Lich who was staring at him.
"You wouldn't think there are only a few undead in the Jingyao Forest, right?" Hull snorted coldly, "There are human corpses wandering around here that died in battle with the undead. In the ten-year ice battle alone, nearly 100,000 people died on the northern coastline. This is one-fifth of the total human population. The druid's elite troops were exhausted to resist and purify the undead. Fortunately, the elves were born in nature and returned to the earth automatically after death, otherwise the consequences would be even more unimaginable."
Uh... Elf zombies or skeletons are scary when they think about it. Link made up for it and immediately rejected this ridiculous idea. Apart from monsters, he has never seen an elves who have become undead in any novel or game.
After getting promoted, Link brought up the old story again and asked to leave again. This time he found a suitable reason for himself.
"Your sister's fiancé is here too?" Hull's pupils shrank into a line, and he clearly didn't believe it.
"It's true, I can swear. I accidentally entered here just to save him... He has been missing for many days, and it is said that he was in a cave near Hegu Town. My friend's brother made an appointment and met in Hegu Town to find him."
"Is your friend a mage?" Hull suddenly said something, and Link was shocked, and he removed his transformation and rolled to the ground.
I haven't talked about Su Wu, how did he know?
"You are honest, but I will never let you leave for such a reason. My conditions remain unchanged. When will you master ten spell positions, and when can you leave?" In fact, Hull used prophecy to test whether Link was lying, and found out that he was going to go to River Valley Town to meet with Su Wu, who was a mage.
Looking at the birdman's back as he left, Link really wanted to scold a bastard to vent his anger.
"He is also for your own benefit. Those who lack self-protection ability will easily die if they practice outside."
It’s okay if the words are not used like this, they’re dead... Link is unable to complain about the translation of this game.
In just a moment, several undead spirits gathered. Turning into a white deer, Link began to kill monsters with boring nature. In addition to the tree skin, healing naturally, and adding the new learning of the swift wind. The slow-moving undead spirit could not touch him at all.
It didn't take long to clear the first wave. I don't know how much experience it has to purify a dead soul. There were no 100 or 80 people who cleaned up all night, and there were no upgrades.
In the next few days, Link trained day and night, supervised by Iris during the day, and changed Hull at night, and finally rose to LV3 on the eighth day of game time. He chose Isol's auxiliary skills [Requiem] and [Reply], with the purpose of going to the rewarded [Natural Allies], and he could summon a natural creature that signed a contract.
Link did not pull down the shooting training when exercising physical energy and purifying the undead. Although the learning time was short, relying on the guidance of recovering physical energy and the elf ranger, he increased the shooting speed and hit rate of moving objects.
Having collected ten spell positions, Hull did not stop Link anymore, and even took the initiative to deliver a task to find the missing druid in River Valley Town.
For a long time, humans have used the druid invented by the druid, and have special druid temples all over the mainland. Because relations with druids deteriorated in recent hundreds of years, human mages have invented the method of using curses instead of blessings. River Valley Town is close to the Pillar of the Earth, which is one of the few human settlements that still maintain contact with druids. Half a year ago, the whereabouts of the druids were unknown, and the two druids who went to investigate were also missing one after another. Don’t want to suffer any unnecessary losses, Hull just decided to go to the pillar himself and select a new son of nature. He had to suspend going out and train new people who didn’t know anything.
Although it is not strong enough, since it has been recognized by Isol, even if he is a real son of nature, hiding in the guardian land will not help Link's growth. Hull agreed to let Link go out for experience, and wanted to examine whether his mind and nature can be competent for the guardian's responsibilities.
Since it was a secret investigation, he could not go as an envoy. Hull remembered that Link had mentioned doing civil service, so he asked him what other work he had done besides civil service.
"I've worked as a short-term worker, waiter, sending letters... Well... I'm also brushing dishes." Link thought about how he suddenly asked this?
It was all useless work, Hull waved his hand and told me that there was no need to say anything more.
"River Valley Town is close to the mercenary city of Aiden, a gathering place for adventurers and refugees. Even bards are rare, let alone travelers. You are doing a secret operation this time and cannot be discovered by humans."
Iris, who found a set of mountain costumes for Link, suggested pretending to be an Alkin. Link's skin was darker, and people who did not understand this clan were not easy to detect the difference between the two.
"It just so happens that there are several Algin settlements on Mount Olasio, and it is safer to add the identity of a mountain citizen." Iris compared the size of his clothes, which was just right.
There are some humans called "mountain people" living around Mount Olasio, who are in harmony with nature, and have almost no interaction with the outside world except for the necessary survival products.
"It seems there is no better choice." Hull handed Link a dirty cloth bag.
So heavy... I felt an unusual weight as soon as I took it. Link opened it and saw that it was dozens of silver coins!
It was indeed the rhythm of leaving the novice village, and even the money for going out was given. He couldn't control his excitement, and his happy expression made Hull's face dark.
"Don't think you can walk far away, only walk around the valley town."
"Yes, yes, yes..." There is no need to look at Birdman's face for the time being, Link felt secretly happy.
"Be careful in everything." Thousands of words turned into short instructions, and Eris told Link to put his own life first.
