So Lin Luo thought for ten seconds before slowly saying:
"In this way, the terrible thing about violence is not its elimination and suppression, but its assimilation of people who are not originally violent into violent people."
He guessed through the blacksmith's context and emotional expression that perhaps the small town of Moss a long time ago was not the lawless place it is today.
Those eight-level rogue war bandit humanoid monsters may not have been monsters at first, but ordinary resident NPCs.
Just like the most terrifying thing about nuclear weapons is not the moment when the bomb roars and the earth collapses, but the horrific nuclear radiation that exists in the nuclear explosion zone for decades or hundreds of years.
As expected, the blacksmith nodded:
"You are right. People who were trampled by war eventually became worshipers of violence. For so many years, no one has been willing to set foot in this barren land, except for you and the previous adventurers."
Lin Luo gradually understood something, and he said:
"So that's it, how can I help you?"
Blacksmith Hans laughed loudly:
"The previous group of adventurers also said this, but I don't trust them. In comparison, I seem to have heard about your deeds, and I am more willing to believe you."
This sentence made Lin Luo stunned a little.
He and Tata Maotou and others looked at each other, and the latter also shook his head, not knowing what the other party meant by this.
Tata was still the most attentive, and suddenly said in the team voice:
"It's a prestige point!"
Now Lin Luo reacted suddenly:
"You mean... you rejected the prestige points rewarded by the Red Deer Beast leader before?"
Prestige points are attributes that players can only come into contact with in the middle of the game. It is difficult for players to obtain them in the early stage because it requires both strength and luck.
Lin Luo then remembered that prestige points have a very powerful function in this world, involving the attitude of all plot characters towards you.
When your prestige points reach a certain level, NPCs will even have a favorable impression of you.
"So Gong Ziyu's team also triggered this hidden mission before, but they didn't receive it because they lacked certain conditions. This condition is the prestige point!"
Lin Luo was thinking this, and the blacksmith Hans stood up solemnly.
He handed the repaired equipment to everyone and said:
"If you can help eliminate some war bandits and restore tranquility to the town, I will give you some reward."
As soon as he finished speaking, a mission prompt sounded in the team.
[Hidden mission in Moss Town: The blacksmith’s commission!]
[Task conditions: Please go to the outskirts of Moss Town and eliminate a total of 500 exiled war bandits. 】
[Mission reward: Combat Repair Technique (auxiliary skill): You can consume a repair tool during combat to restore the durability of a piece of equipment to full, with a cooldown time of 10 seconds.]
【Do you accept this task? 】
【whether.】
Of course, there was no need for Lin Luo to remind everyone, everyone immediately accepted this task.
"That's great, it's actually an auxiliary skill!"
Tata showed a rare expression of surprise when he saw this mission.
There are many player skills in the new world. Putting aside the life skills, the skills that can be used in battle can be roughly divided into two types.
Vocational skills and auxiliary skills.
Needless to say, professional skills, each of the four branches of a profession has different skills. The greater the difference in the later stages, the greater the playability of the profession.
Auxiliary skills are also called basic skills.
In the early stage, each player can only learn two auxiliary skills, namely Eye of Insight and Speedy Walking.
The former is a necessary skill used to open monsters and attack points. Without this, players will not even be able to see the monster attributes.
The latter is used for rushing or escaping. For example, if a player encounters someone in the wild who wants to forcefully attack you, if you run away with a fast walk as soon as possible, you may have a chance to escape, which is also very important.
In addition to these two skill panels, there are also various auxiliary skills in the game.
But if players want to learn, they have to find their own way.
At present, 'Combat Repair Technique' is a very practical auxiliary skill. Although in theory, the durability of equipment is difficult to be exhausted in a one-time battle, but if you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of the worst. If you encounter a long-term battle and cannot escape, once equipped
When the durability drops, this skill will take effect.
And aside from these, the more advanced the equipment, the higher the repair cost will be in the later stage.
Now the repair costs for Lin Luo and others only cost tens or hundreds of gold coins. This is because they are of low level and the equipment level has not been improved.
This skill is also very economical in the later stages.
"In that case, let's set off!"
Lin Luo finished repairing the equipment and quickly left with the three of them.
The blacksmith's task is not difficult, but the number of five hundred exiled war bandits is a lot.
The four of them have gradually become more and more skilled in their cooperation. During this period, Xiao Lingyue began to try out the rhythm of her own professional characteristics. Occasionally she could add one or two layers. She suddenly seemed to have discovered a new world and said in surprise:
"Huh? My attributes have actually started to improve!"
Lin Luo nodded and said:
"Yes, the rhythm effect of the auxiliary profession can be stacked, up to ten levels. So in theory, the auxiliary player can maintain the ten-level rhythm at all times and there will be no shortage of movement speed."
Little Lingyue just let out a sigh, with a bitter look on her face, and said regretfully:
"I regret it so much now! If I had known it, I wouldn't have added agility!"
Lin Luo shook his head and just smiled without saying a word.
If a New World player adds wrong points in the early stage, there is no way to correct them. The player will only have a chance to redistribute attribute points when he changes jobs for the first time.
But we are still far away from changing jobs now.
Players not only need to be at level 20 to change jobs, but they also have to do everything possible to obtain job transfer tasks. After obtaining the tasks, they have to find a way to complete them. In addition, the job transfer tasks are very difficult. It is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to successfully change jobs in another month.
Of course, four people talking at the same time will not delay the efficiency of killing monsters.
After slaying a wave of monsters with skilled cooperation, Lin Luo and the others finally reached level 7.
Mao Tou shook his fist fiercely:
"Nais! If you level up one more level, you can wear that jewelry!"
Although Tata didn't speak, his face was full of expectation. He also had a skill book in his bag that can only be learned at level eight.
Time passes slowly, and the amount of games played today is even greater than yesterday. I promoted the Red Deer leader early in the morning and have not stopped upgrading it until now.
Lin Luo looked at the time. It was already half past twelve in reality, which meant that about ten hours had passed in the game.
He suggested:
"How about we have lunch first and continue the upgrade in the afternoon?"
Tata nodded and said:
"I agree, I will definitely reach level eight before tonight!"
This guy, Mao Tou, was still the same as before, and he went offline as soon as Lin Luo finished speaking.
…
Lin Luo took off the virtual helmet, and lunch was still the same as yesterday.
As usual, he took out his mobile phone and opened all the major social platforms. The public beta of the new world became popular all over the world and has become the hottest topic on the Internet.
Even when Lin Luo opened his circle of friends, eight out of ten posts were about sharing situations in the game.
The game New World can be bound to accounts on major social platforms. Many life-style players like to socialize in it, such as holding music exhibitions, holding cocktail parties, or camping in the wild... Many game group chat records go up to hundreds of pages.
All are screenshots and screen recordings of the new world to share.
Lin Luo clicked on the official website of New World Games, browsed several major sections, and finally came to the most popular of all sections:
