In the craftsman's office, Fang Yu first updated his outdated identity information and upgraded from the original third-level silver star craftsman (level 3) to the first-level gold star craftsman (level 14). The silver star and gold star craftsman systems are Kaolin's.
- A set of alchemist grading standards common to Ithulian and even Kukai. Among them, Silver Star Craftsmen mostly refer to those alchemists between formal and informal craftsmen, and of course include the huge army of apprentices.
Compared with the Chosen One system, each level of Silver Star is one level, of which one to three stars are trainee levels. Although after four stars, they can be called formal alchemists, they are still unqualified newcomers within the Artisans Association. However, for anyone
For a contemporary town run by magic technology, maintaining a large-scale Silver Star craftsman group is essential.
Silver Star craftsmen are like large and small parts of a precision structure. They may seem insignificant, but in fact they are indispensable. What's more, these people are also the reserve of formal craftsmen. Any outstanding craftsman must go through such a stage.
After the tenth level, an alchemist can obtain the first gold star. However, there are only five levels of gold stars, and one level for every tenth level. A five-star craftsman is basically enough to serve as the department manager of any craftsmen's association. Further up, craftsmen are not divided into levels.
, there are only three titles, Great Craftsman, Great Alchemist and Legendary Alchemist.
Like all other professional guilds, level symbolizes prestige. Of course, it also has many practical benefits, such as obtaining some knowledge and skills for free. Fang Plov missed an opportunity in El Paxin, and naturally he will not miss it again here.
However, the leap from a third-level silver star craftsman to a first-level gold star craftsman naturally caused quite a stir. The staff came to see who it was, and the identity information had not been updated for more than ten levels.
This kind of person is either a madman or a genius, basically equivalent to the behavior of the Shilipo Sword Master in some ancient games.
Fortunately, this is the royal capital. Although such a thing is rare, it is not unprecedented. After a while of curiosity, the crowd dispersed. To Fang Yu's relief, no one recognized him.
The staff member responsible for receiving them was an elf lady from Alvin Quinn, who was about the same age as Princess Brianne. She glanced at the elf lady on his shoulder curiously, and then asked:
"Do I need to acquire skills and knowledge?"
Fang Yu nodded: "Of course." This is exactly the purpose of coming here.
He showed a form, which contained some design drawings he needed. The first was the flexible structures of the 'Screaming Banshee', 'TS-1 Lurker' and 'Engineering Machine'.
Among them, the 'Screaming Banshee' is a flexible structure developed on the basis of the Clockwork Fairy. It is about a foot long, and its body shape is between the Clockwork Fairy and Annihilator QV700. Its appearance is similar to a thin-waisted bird.
Wasp, but its attack method is not the tail needle, but the seven suspended bombs it carries.
Basic attributes: attack 11-16, melee hit 113, balance value 172 (flying level: dexterity)
Protection attributes: Armor value 4, durability value 22, dodge value 450, block value 4
Core attributes: output power 112/170m (flight power system 41, precision components 15, support system 17, cooling system 32, others 7), allowed overload (11 seconds), core heat value: 22/220
Dive to drop bombs: When diving to drop bombs, the hit rate is increased by 50%, and the core heat is increased by 7
Rapid Balance: The balance value returns to full value within 2 seconds, cooling time is three minutes, core heat +30
The idea of this thing is actually a small bomber. Of course, the damage is far less than that of the efreet, but the 1-second stun of the suspension bomb (without saving throw) and the anti-invisibility of the flash bomb are particularly useful, and they are also most commonly used by combat craftsmen.
One of the special configurations.
After Fang Yu experienced the power of the invisibility potion in the underground of the Black Holy City, he became interested in this thing. It would be fine if the invisibility was on his own side, but it would be too uncomfortable if there was no suitable countermeasure on the opponent's side.
.
The Screaming Banshee itself is very expensive, and its cost is about the same as that of the Archangel. However, the suspension bombs it carries are very cheap, less than one-sixth of those of the Clockwork Elf, and can be equipped in large quantities. As for the flash agent, it is slightly more expensive.
But it's still within the acceptable range.
Then the computing power occupied by this thing is 62, and after being reduced to half, it is only 31, which is only a little more than half of the Angel's 102 (if not specified, it is the original value of the basic computing power occupied), which is also within the range of his tolerance. Moreover,
After he jumps up to five or six levels this time, his computing power will also increase significantly.
The other two types of constructs, 'ts-1 Lurker' and 'Engineering Machine', are also special constructs. 'TS-1 Lurker' is actually a kind of alien walker, similar to his 'Sword Plover' construct.
Its main function is to generate a gravity trap equivalent to Annihilator QV700 within its own range.
And although this thing is very fragile and its attributes are not worth mentioning, it has a very high mimicry ability and its concealment value is off the charts at this level. It can be called a mobile booby trap on the battlefield.
Unexpected situations can often produce some unexpected key effects. And because it is a castrated version of qv700, the computing power usage is only 32 (16), which is only slightly higher than the clockwork fairy.
Although its price is comparable to that of the Clockwork Fairy II, it is not unacceptable if it can be recycled after the First World War.
As for the 'engineering machine', it is actually a large clockwork goblin with a similar appearance and control method. It is just a bit larger than an ordinary clockwork goblin, and its flight level has also dropped from the highest level of 'perfect' to 'dexterous'.
.
The 'engineering machine' is the 'healer' among flexible structures. Of course, it can only be used to repair flexible structures and slowly restore their durability. Since the repair distance is more than 60 feet, there is no need for physical Contact, so those who choose it often call it 'remote cultivation'.
This thing is actually a type of construct similar to that of the Goblin Envoy. It consumes a very high amount of computing power. The basic model is as high as 150. However, due to its significant effect and the addition of some components, it can even be used to remotely provide other flexible constructs. The equipment, or the main crystal of the chosen one can be used to accelerate the magic charging, so it is also one of the flexible constructions that the combat craftsman must have after a certain level.
For other selectors, this level is usually between 17 and 20, but Fang Lu relied on his abnormal calculation ability and simply obtained it in advance when he had sufficient cognitive experience.
In addition to these three special structures, he also asked if the office had two structures, the 'Shadow Blade' and the 'Overseer'. These two were also special structures, but even rarer.
But as expected, two rare designs are missing. This is also a long-standing problem of the Craftsmen Association. Some uncommon flexible constructions, components and design drawings are always not replenished in time, and some are even replenished only once every few years. .
There is actually a reason why the Kaolin-Ithurian Craftsmen Association has allowed the Merchant Alliance to catch up and compete with them in the Sea of Clouds region.
However, there is actually nothing to complain about, because at least the design drawings of the guild are almost free among members. Although the products of the Merchant Alliance are good, you get what you pay for. As for the choice between the two, it depends on the individual.
The reason why Fang Yu chose to add so many special configuration design drawings is actually because his frontal combat effectiveness is basically sufficient.
With the presence of 'Erotic Angels' and 'Efreets', the level 15 to 20 stage is completely passable. And since there are many branches of Silver Vislan, 'Erotic Angels' are actually not very popular in the first world. It's rare, and you can use it with confidence without worrying about being too eye-catching.
As for the 'Fire Djinn', it does need to be hidden. It can only be used at critical moments, or it can be changed into another form. But fortunately, he also has a higher-level Dauntless, that is, he has a deal with Princess Sophie. It needs to be completed urgently, and the variant of the Dreadnaught, 'Elfin's Twin', has not yet been delivered.
If you get this thing, then the temporary absence of the 'Fire Spirit' is not unacceptable.
When the frontal combat power is sufficient, what Fang Plover needs to make up for is naturally control and recovery, as well as some means of survival, especially since he is at a lower level and may face higher-level opponents from descendants of Flor at any time. Under such circumstances, survivability becomes particularly important.
His plan was to maximize his survivability first, and the 'Shadow Blade' and 'Overseer' he chose were actually made for this purpose. But since there were no drawings of these two types here, Fang Plover naturally had no choice but to ask for help. Business Alliance, check to see if it is available in various alchemy shops located in the port area.
In fact, he still lacks a type of flexible structure for remote output. However, Fang Piao has not yet found his favorite product at this level. The attempt of the Walker Type II 'Fortress' also failed, so he can only plan to wait.
Say it again.
In addition to the flexible construction design drawings, the second thing Fang Piao did was to replace the magic furnace.
More advanced flexible structures also require more powerful main crystal support. Although he has already completed the beta state of a type of crystal, which he and Miss Tata call the holy crystal, his original Kingfisher AAE type magic furnace
The maximum output power can no longer support this more powerful crystal.
However, Fang Yu does not plan to directly purchase the finished magic furnace this time. He plans to make one himself. This is also due to the special reason of his huge computing power, which requires the magic furnace to have super magic output to support his huge power.
Construct an army.
As a result, he can basically only use those special models, which are either difficult to obtain or expensive.
The Kingfisher AAE magic furnace is actually a special type of magic furnace, but its level is low, so its price is acceptable to Attila and others' team. But it is more advanced, level 15, level 20
Level, the price of those special types of magic furnaces is beyond what Fang Plover can imagine.
Although the team now has some money, he has not forgotten the fact that they still have to build their own ships. If this is included, the actual asset status of their team is still worrying.
There are many types of craftsmen, and most combat craftsmen do not produce their own magic furnaces, with the exception of one type of craftsman. That is the crystal craftsman, and designing and manufacturing magic furnaces is their full-time job.
If Fang Plover wants to be a shipwright, he naturally has to deal with the core parts of the floating ship, the lift engine and the magic engine, and these two things are actually large-scale magic furnaces. So the shipwright, in fact, first of all
He must also be a professional crystal craftsman, and he has naturally established his path to becoming a master craftsman early on.
Of course, he is not so arrogant that he plans to design a professional magic furnace before reaching level 15. His plan is to directly use the traditional magic furnaces that already exist in the guild.
, although it is the oldest model, it has at least one advantage.
That's why Fang Yu discovered that his craftsman production system has an extremely high probability of producing high-quality products. A traditional basic model of a fifteen-level craftsman magic furnace with a quality level of only e would naturally not be able to meet his needs.
, but if the quality reaches A or higher, that is another matter. There is a reason why high-quality equipment on the market is so expensive.
In addition to the design drawings, there are naturally related theories, including the special structures he wanted before, which also require the support of relevant basic theories before they can be used. Among them, the Screaming Banshee and the Engineering Machine require special flexible structure and manipulation foundations
In theory, the D-level Lurker TS-1 requires the 'Gravity Control' level E, and the engineering machine also needs the 'Remote Maintenance' skill.
Coupled with some theoretical knowledge and skills related to shipbuilding, Lin Linzhong also made a long list on the piece of paper. Fang Plover received a total of 570,000 from the entire incident involving Fenris and his party.
The experience was enough to elevate him from nearly level nine to halfway to level fourteen.
Naturally, there are not just one or two skills that need to be learned.
However, the so-called receiving skills does not mean that the Craftsman Office provides him with a mountain of information for him to take away. Let’s not talk about whether Fang Pliance can take away so many books and documents, and the Craftsman Office is not so rich.
To the extent that so much literature and information can be provided to everyone for free.
So in fact, the process of the selector receiving the skill is that the craftsman office provides a copy, and then the recipient copies it through the selector system. The whole process of copying a skill is nothing more than scanning the book page by page.
The time can range from one or two minutes to about a quarter of an hour.
Of course, it is not completely free, and you still need to pay a certain handling fee. However, compared with the original price of these knowledge and skills, this handling fee is equivalent to nothing.
In addition, through system copying, it is equivalent to the process of learning these skills and raising them to F-level proficiency, so it also costs cognitive experience, depending on the requirements of different skills. This is still the advantage of the selector. If you are an aborigine,
Then you can only borrow them step by step.
Because it is a loan, the original cannot be taken out of the location of the Craftsmen's Association, so aboriginal alchemists generally rarely leave the vicinity of the town.
However, the aborigines are not without merit compared to the Chosen. The Chosen use the system to learn and use skills, but they do not actually understand its foundation and theory. They only demonstrate their abilities through the Chosen's structure. Although it is quick, of course they still have to bear the cost.
.In actual use, the selectors are actually far less flexible than the aborigines, and are often more dogmatic and rigid.
Therefore, there has been a widespread rumor in Aitaria that at the same level, the actual abilities of the chosen ones are not as good as those of the natives. And this rumor seems to be true today. The only advantage of the chosen ones seems to be
It's better to upgrade faster.
However, in recent years, Stargate Port seems to be aware of the shortcomings of the selector system, and is increasingly encouraging the selectors to only regard the system as an auxiliary means. They go back more and more to make up for the basics, so you see
Don’t be surprised if a selector holds a thick book on the basic theory of something and reads it with gusto.
In fact, Fang Plover and Ji Ta look like this most of the time in daily life. However, the young naturalists from the Knights of Tabolis mostly read anecdotes from various places, natural history encyclopedias and geographical records.
As for the former, it is a matter of digging into a large number of design drawings. This process is extremely boring for ordinary people, but for Fang Plover, who has the experience of being a real apprentice of Kapka, it is a different kind of fun.
Moreover, you can also gain some cognitive experience from reading. Although it is not much, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
What he himself didn't even realize was that under the influence of Miss Scarpet, those six months of experience seemed to him more or less a waste, but they laid an important foundation.
His biggest advantage is actually that compared to other Chosen Alchemists, he has experienced a complete apprenticeship education in Rodel that does not rely on the system. In this regard, he is not much different from an aborigine.
The materials that the staff brought to the hall were roughly divided into two categories, one was more ancient books, some were recording crystals similar to communication crystals, and stacks of design drawings.
Because the span of Fang Piao's upgrade was too large, he required a lot of information at one time, especially the design drawings, which were usually not a single piece but a thick pile, and some even contained a box or several boxes.
The tall pile of books and crystals actually occupied a large corner in the hall for a while.
It's really breathtaking.
Just reading these documents, even just scanning them, will naturally take a lot of time. Since the meeting time has been set in advance, Fang Plover did not dare to wait too long, so he took the time to start chewing the book. The pages were as tight as pages.
He was flipping through the documents and design drawings, and it didn't look like he was reading at all, but more like the pretentious boss in some traditional libraries in the past.
Pretending to be a top student
The more staff came and went around, they would cast more or less curious glances at them. Among them were several alchemists who came to do business. They couldn't bear to see the mountains of information piled up here.
I was shocked.
"Is this person crazy?"
"Seeing so many things at once, does he have that much cognitive experience?"
"I'm afraid that if I don't have to upgrade several levels in a row, this person can't even show off. He's really a retard!"
These discussions reached Fang Yu's ears more or less, leaving him speechless for a while, but what could be done? I don't know whether it was good luck or bad luck, but he actually encountered two major events in a row, and what could he do?
The level itself was low, so such a leap-forward upgrade happened by chance.
To ordinary people, this is indeed a bit unbelievable.
Sylvide, on the other hand, was not bored listening to the conversation of these people. She sat opposite Fang Plover with her chin in her hands, looking at him curiously without moving her eyes.
The silent interaction between the two lasted for several hours. Fang Yu reluctantly recorded the last piece of information before he straightened up and let out a sigh of relief. He glanced at the sky and found that it was almost noon, and his stomach
He was already grumbling with hunger. While he motioned to the staff to put away the last part of the crystals and blueprints, he asked Sylvide if she wanted to go eat something with her.
Sylvester smiled slightly, and naturally nodded slightly.
