"...The next step is to repeatedly train various commonly used basic skills. It is necessary to reach the 'expert level' proficiency, and only then can the power of the basic skills be truly exerted..."
"Ah? Want to reach the expert level? This...isn't it easy? Especially the boss strictly prohibits us from using talent points to accumulate skill levels. If we just rely on ourselves to grind, when will we be able to reach it..."
Before the cold wind has finished speaking, Born for War already feels a little unbearable~
As the sole investor of the "quasi-professional team", he is the undisputed strongest one. Although everyone is complaining about it in private, we all regard all the "clear orders" issued by Liu Yifei regarding the code of conduct of the team members.
It is still implemented relatively thoroughly.
For example, you must retrain new characters according to the "design drawings", it is strictly forbidden to use combat experience to quickly upgrade combat professional levels, it is strictly forbidden to use talent points to improve combat skills below "advanced" level, etc...
Although people often don't quite understand why Liu Yifei does these almost complacent things, but after thinking about it, he wouldn't make fun of everyone...or the money he throws out every day, right?
In this way, compared with the situation of ordinary players in the outside world, whose levels are improved "shuashuashua" and skills are improved "miso miso miso", the entire team under Liu Yifei seems to have activated the slow-motion debuff, and every bit of progress seems particularly difficult -
- It is extremely difficult for outsiders to find new skills, especially high-quality skills to learn, but Liu Yifei and the others have all fallen into the pit of basic skills, and few have been able to climb out so far...
"Well...actually...if you work harder, it won't be very difficult...
Don't you think my strength has improved a lot recently? In fact, the main reason is that I just trained [Heavy Attack] to 'Advanced' not long ago, and then after asking the captain, I used talent points to raise it to 'Expert'...
"
"What??! You've reached the 'expert level' of [Punch]?!
Holy shit!
Are you so good at keeping secrets? No... you told the boss!
Ah~~~Who else did you tell? Am I the only one in the team who doesn’t know?
Ah!!! Bastard~
Lengfeng, I treat you as my brother, but you damn thing, you treat me like an outsider! You didn’t even tell me about this good thing~~~"
Looking at the posture of "Born for Fighting", if the "floor" in the virtual conference room was not too hard and cold, this guy might have planned to lie down on the ground and roll around.
"Well... that's what the captain said. The first 'expert level' basic skill can only be regarded as barely reaching the 'qualification standard'. It's nothing to make a fuss about. Let me guard against arrogance and impetuosity and continue to work hard...
…”
Being told that he was born to fight, Leng Feng was a little embarrassed, and he immediately put the blame on the everyday scapegoat.
"Huh? Can that big pervert's standards be the same as ours? He probably doesn't even know how many expert-level skills he has on him. Of course he's not weird!
Unless you are the kind of people outside who have been improving their talent points all the way, like us, it will take at least two months to improve an expert-level skill... Hurry! Tell me! Who else knows!?"
He looked fierce because of the battle, as if the cold wind had done something terribly wrong to him.
"Um... Wu Daddy is a bit more sensitive. He noticed it after playing against me twice. He even asked me once and I admitted it... Then after Wu Ying played against me, he was also surprised that I have been 'heavy handed' recently.
, and then I told him..."
"Ha?? Sure enough! Leng Feng, you stinky woman, you really don't think of me as your brother. They all know it, so you just kept it from me! You're so mad at me!! Ah~~~~~~~
"
Yi Wanqing: "..."
…
There was a fuss for a while, mainly because I was born to fight and I was too embarrassed to keep cheating and letting a woman comfort me. Finally, I pretended that nothing happened just now and everything was an illusion, and continued to ask about the really important things:
"So, is the difference really that big when the skills reach the 'expert level'? But looking at the experience sharing posts and PK videos on the forum, it seems like they are just average?"
Speaking of this, Lengfeng Chuanjing pondered for a moment, and then answered uncertainly: "I think this is probably the reason why the captain has been suppressing us and not allowing us to quickly improve our skill levels, right? At least it is one of the reasons...
…
Because we will spend a long time getting familiar with and improving the skill level little by little, this leads to us being extremely familiar with, and even sensitive to, the effects, status, and consumption of skills at every stage.
When [Heavy Attack] reaches the expert level, its biggest difference is that it becomes an output method that can be freely controlled.
I have also read the experience posts you mentioned, and they generally believe that a 5% increase in basic strength is the biggest improvement after [Heavy Attack] reaches the expert level, turning an active skill into an effect similar to a passive skill, which can be effective
Increase the player's attack power.
But I feel that the 'free mode' without restrictions is the most fundamental change...I can't tell you the specifics, but it's just a feeling, right?
With the preparation and proficiency of the previous few months, I can feel that at any time and at which moment, the changes in attack power are extremely flexible... Wu Dad said that during my recent PK training, the threat of 'feinting' became more and more...
As he gets older, my probing attacks and fatal blows are often blurred to the point where it is difficult for him to distinguish...
But in fact, I don't have such a clear sense of distinction. I just have some instinctive feelings when fighting on the spot... At the moment of the fight, I judge the strength of the opponent's resistance to the blow, and then there is a moment of judgment whether to stop there or whether it can be done.
Pursue victory...
In short, I feel that after a long period of careful polishing, coupled with the free control after the 'expert level', it really has the meaning of turning decay into magic, and suddenly makes every attack of mine become virtual and real.
Uncertain~
It was only after I experienced it myself that I started to think a little bit about the intention of the captain's original requirements for us.
Maybe... he just wants us to polish our respective foundations more carefully and attentively. For this, it doesn't matter even if it delays some early development time~
Originally, I planned to train [Heavy Attack] to the expert level and then switch to mastering [Gunnership]. After all, I am currently serving as a soldier in Baiyan City, and I feel that the grassroots army uses long guns more often.
But Dad Wu also pointed out that after I mastered [Heavy Attack], the problem of strong offense and weak defense became a bit more prominent. As an [Arcane Guard], he has also deliberately switched from defense to offense in recent battles with me.
To attack is to force me to expose my flaws in defense...
So I may continue to practice [Holding Shield] in the future, at least to adjust my offensive and defensive balance in melee first, right?
As the captain said, we [soldiers] don’t need to be very strong, but we must not have obvious shortcomings, try to achieve a balance of offense and defense, and have a certain degree of advance and retreat, otherwise we will easily be targeted when we encounter the enemy..."
While listening to Leng Feng Guojing detailing his recent feelings and plans, Born for War looked at her with an increasingly strange look. He suddenly said:
"Lengfeng, have you noticed? You have changed so much recently~ As you talk freely now, you can also analyze and judge in an organized manner and make subsequent training adjustments...
I can’t see any traces of the pure rookie you looked like a few months ago. I feel like you’re almost a bit like Dad Wu, an old martial artist..."
After hearing the words "Born for Fighting", Lengfeng Guanjing was also stunned subconsciously, and then smiled and said: "Okay~ I will just think that you are complimenting me! Maybe... there are some changes, right?
I don’t know either~
I just feel that as I follow the captain's request little by little, many things that I didn't understand at all gradually become a little vague. Then I often compete with everyone, especially my father Wu who occasionally gives me some pointers...
People always grow up? Maybe I am really becoming mature from a rookie?"
After mentioning "Born for War", Lengfeng Chuanjing also subconsciously remembered that a few months ago, he had just tentatively entered the game in a state of sadness and confusion, and then unexpectedly met Gera in Standwick City in normal mode.
Special Captain... At that time, the other party was still "hiding his identity" and pretending to be leading a team to level up, so he deceived a newbie like himself into it, and then he accidentally met someone who was born to fight...
Lengfeng Chuanjing couldn't help but recall the previous time. He thought about it for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands and said: "No! You said that Dad Wu gave you guidance? Why didn't that guy give me guidance?!
Every time we fight, I'm like an old turtle, huddled behind his shield, grinding all the way until my physical strength is almost gone, and then he starts to chop me with a knife...
Ah!! That old pervert! His daughter is already so old, yet he still favors daughters over sons! It’s simply unreasonable!”
Cold wind passing by: "..."
"Um...didn't you say that you often ask the captain for advice? The captain didn't give you any advice or anything?
Your previous boss followed the 'Battle Priest' route, and didn't you also come up with the 'Flash Technique' that was highly praised by the captain? Didn't he give you any more guidance?"
In order to prevent Born for War from starting to mess around again, the cold wind passed by and quickly moved the captain out - more or less, Born for War did mean a bit of admiration for Liu Yifei. Maybe for game veterans like them,
The kind of strong man who can stand at the top of the game is their real pursuit and idol, right?
As soon as Liu Yifei was mentioned, Born to Fight's attention was diverted as expected, and he just said with some disdain: "What are you going to give me as a guide? You know how to emphasize the basics over and over with me, and I'm almost bored to death when I practice..."
…
But after hearing what you said today, I probably understand his intention, and I will definitely take the training in campaign mode more seriously in the future.
Apart from this...there's nothing else, right? Oh, by the way, the boss mentioned it to me half a month ago, saying that he wanted me to find out as much as possible about the surrounding situation in the plot, especially whether there is any enemy situation or anything like that. He said
You will come and join me soon. If the situation permits, I may be needed to act as a liaison with the 'family' or something."
Hearing this, Leng Fengqiu was stunned subconsciously, and then his eyes suddenly became a little dangerous. He stared at Born for War and asked tentatively: "You... specially called me here today, are you trying to show off your superiority to Versailles?"
