Chapter 102 101. There are still 20 days until the "Dawn" incident
There is only one thing that Duncan is most concerned about right now——
This year’s selection of the “great UP masters” of fan sites.
This is a popularity competition among all divisions of the entire site. Every year, there are approximately 10 game area UP owners who can be selected. Specifically for the virtual reality game category, the number of places will definitely be even smaller.
The anchors of fan sites are basically UP anchors. For this year's selection, Duncan is also eager to be selected.
In the past, he would never have dared to imagine that he had any possibility of becoming a great UP master. That was a title given to a big boss. But in the past few weeks, he has suddenly risen to prominence thanks to the popularity given by "Dawn", and the number of fans has exceeded 40
Wan, it is not impossible to compete.
Although the bonus is not large, the exposure and discussion given by the title of "Great Up Master" are huge. In the future, we will receive more resource support, and the long-term benefits are unimaginable!
If you want to choose a great up-player, you must at least be the head of the virtual reality game area. The only hope is to continue to maintain his current status as the first anchor and the first up-player of "Dawn"!
However, there are many competitors who are currently enjoying the popularity of "Dawn". If he cannot become the guild leader of "Dawn" as soon as possible, the popularity accumulated on the first day of the closed beta will be lost soon! Duncan thought.
As if the day was long and the night was short, he knew what Duncan was thinking, so he stepped forward and said:
"Duncan, are you thinking about how to get the start-up funds to form a guild?"
···
After dividing the spoils, everyone dispersed and walked out of the simple mud hut.
In his previous life, Daylong Nightshort never participated in the internal beta, so his understanding of what happened during the internal beta was extremely limited.
Duncan clicked on the second green sophisticated spell card - [Manipulate the Dead].
And [Transformation] is just a green sophisticated level spell!
I can’t imagine how terrifying blue rare level and purple epic level functional spells would be.
"Brother Deng, Brother Deng, let's take a look at the description of the transformation card again, shall we? Transformation, it's really cool."
"The siege activity is too difficult, exposing the design flaws of "Shuguang". "Shuguang" cannot compete with the domestic game "Shuguang"."
What will players do without knowing that Dawn is a real-world game?
Of course, I scolded the dog planner for the unreasonable difficulty of the event!
Duncan thought about it and suddenly realized the mentality of the necromancer in traditional fantasy stories.
With endless gratitude, Duncan finished his brief conversation with Day Long and Night Short, and began to digest the gains of this adventure.
"Can you show us a list of magical items that can be crafted?"
Others urged:
"Yes." Duncan nodded, sat up straight to make himself appear taller on the chair, and then rubbed his chin and came up with his speculation:
"I guess you can choose a talent every time you break through level 10?" Duncan muttered and opened the game system interface.
After reading the description, Duncan immediately grasped the terrifying aspect of [manipulating the dead].
After the player dies, the body will disappear within a few seconds, which is definitely not acceptable.
So, what if it’s not a human corpse...
——This legendary spell can not only completely simulate the extraordinary ability of the new form, but also has many advantages, such as being able to transform into a specific individual, such as the transformation can last forever, and the upper limit of the transformation level is much higher.
,etc.
The Inscription of the Setting Sun, Duncan’s former top brother, is now a famous European king among his fans!
In the past, Duncan has broadcast a lot of card drawing games in order to gain popularity, and there are also some games with unboxing elements. Many times, he has asked Sunset's Mark to draw cards and open boxes on his behalf.
The days are long and the nights are short, my fingers are groping, my chin is thinking calmly.
I didn’t have time before, but now I have to make a good choice.
Although players have an infinite resurrection mechanism, the higher the level, the longer it takes to revive. The magic circle cannot make the resurrection completely lossless, so a small amount of experience points will be lost each time they are revived.
Long Days and Short Nights seemed to have thought of something, and typed in the chat interface to remind Duncan:
[Choose one of the following talents to obtain: Create Wonderful Objects, Arcane Recollection, Contracted Demon Pet, Metamagic Skills·Silent Spell Casting, Metamagic Skills·Spell Fixed Cast······】
Stealing an NPC's home?
The magic warrior girl continued typing in the chat interface:
"It has only been a month since the server was launched. From becoming popular to being widely criticized, what has "Shuguang" experienced?"
The days are long and the nights are short, I smiled quietly and typed in the friend chat interface:
"I happen to know an NPC's treasury. If you can sneak into it, even if you only steal a little bit, it will be enough to meet your needs to create a guild."
"Being blocked by monsters at the resurrection point and hacked to death at birth, the player scolded the dog planner!"
I really don’t know who is hugging whose thigh.
The upper limit of this expertise depends entirely on what kind of familiars can be found. Ordinary mages and magic warriors can only find bats, rats, ravens, and cats as familiars.
She estimated that if a player gathering place wants to gain a long-term foothold in Hell, it must have at least hundreds of players above level 10!
The barrage in the live broadcast room floated by:
"66666, is Brother Deng going to never return as a creator?"
"Not everything can be changed. I have to see the corresponding monster in advance before I can change it. Let me take a look, here is a monster illustration that can be used for transformation. It seems that I need to see more different monsters in the future!"
He still had a small thought in his mind.
In this way, they can immediately start stealing the treasury in Bell's Bronze Bunker!
But even the ordinary [Transformation] has surprised Duncan by the terrifying degree of freedom in "Dawn"!
Isn't this the method of flying that he has always dreamed of? He actually realized it through this method.
"Can this game really change anything? It can't only change into a limited two or three forms. Can a video game actually have such a high degree of freedom in transformation?"
In the past ten days, he has collected countless materials in the wilderness of hell.
But only with the expertise of creation can you use all kinds of extraordinary materials!
Oh my god, did you hear me right? The boss of Long Days and Short Nights actually said he was interested in my strategy!
I was able to get stuck on the map only because of the instructions from the boss of Long Day and Short Night.
At that time, Day Long Night never thought that she would play this game, let alone that she would travel to the game world in the future. Therefore, she did not read the news content carefully and did not understand what specifically happened in the game.
Fly freely!
Now Duncan can only transform into a miniature wasp, as well as several common hell wild animals such as purgatory rabbits, purgatory boars, and purgatory rats, all of which Duncan has observed at close range in the past few days.
She did not choose the common specialties like [Close Cut], [Double Weapon Attack] and other common melee professions, but chose the [Contracted Demon Pet] with the highest limit.
I hope that "Score of the Sunset" among Duncan fans is really "Score of the Sunset", the future King of Thieves.
"What "Dawn" alchemist?"
With a magic that has such powerful potential, if the body cannot be found, it will be a loss of blood!
I just don’t know which NPC is so unlucky, hahahaha.
After being created, the undead will obey the caster's orders within 24 hours. After 24 hours, you can recast the spell to maintain control. Otherwise, the undead will lose control and gradually turn back into immobile corpses. Maintaining control does not require consumption.
Material. The corpse animated by this spell does not contain soul energy and cannot provide experience points.
Duncan thought for a moment, carefully read the descriptions of each talent, and marveled at the rich game mechanics of "Dawn".
"Take advantage of this period to steal Bell's vault and use the equipment in the warehouse to arm a group of players!"
Moreover, this old man is also quite out-of-the-box, and his words are quite funny. If we can combine him to form a team, the live broadcast effect will definitely increase!
···
Unlike Duncan, Long Days and Short Nights are currently worried about an incident in the "Dawn" game that will happen soon.
···
This adventure was very rewarding.
This sunset's mark is amazing. Normally, it's not very good, even a little bit weird. But at the critical moment, his luck is overwhelming!
Normally, the card pool may be tilted, or it may be a hole (a guarantee). But once the version is drawn, the T0 character will withdraw money ten times in a row!
According to time estimates, this vicious event will happen in about 20 days!
Judging from the news title and introduction, and the long days and short nights, it is estimated that the player's Novice Village has been captured by a large group of powerful enemies.
At least at the current low level, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of siege. The improvement brought by increasing the combat power units is extremely significant!
——Of course, the premise of everything is that there must be corpses of sufficient quality.
Is this kind of map-destroying mechanism really something that an open-world game can provide to players casually?
The last thing he chose was [Creating Wonderful Objects] (talent·expertise).
When Duncan heard this, he became excited.
[Nightcrawler Cloak (Item·Cloak, Blue Rare)]
"But don't worry, viewers. In the past few days, I was supposed to help you explore the game mechanics and write a guide for "Dawn". I was also supposed to study the characteristics and weaknesses of various monsters, so there will be no delay at all!"
This operation sounds interesting. He is worthy of being suspected of being a big boss of his uncle’s party.
Duncan nodded lightly:
···
Even if the days are long and the nights are short, open the panel and check your harvest.
Seeing Duncan's small eyes shining with light, he smiled happily with long days and short nights. His black hair swayed slightly, knowing that he had completely won over the future arcane emperor.
In the original world line, based on the normal upgrade speed, almost no one would be able to reach the first level of level 10 after more than 20 days. In the player community, the mainstream active players are still around level 5 or 6, and there are no enchanted equipment.
Whether facing Bell's men or other possible monster groups, they are too weak.
"Of course I remember this."
However, the girl still accidentally remembered that more than a month after the internal beta of "Dawn" began, she accidentally scanned several pieces of news like this on the Internet.
When Duncan heard that the days were long and the nights were short, he was so happy and excited.
Moreover, Duncan’s goal is to increase his influence among players. Coupled with his previous creation talent [Scroll of Transcription], he can completely rely on his status as a host to advertise and let players come to him to create magic items!
"Hello everyone, my name is Duncan! If you want scrolls and magical items, you can pay me. Duncan Craftsman takes orders online."
"How can we collect suitable corpses?"
"It seems that I have to find a way to observe more monsters recently." Deng Ming set his goal.
This is treating me as an apprentice, and I am waiting for my results. It is completely a step-by-step teaching!
I cry to death, how can there be such a good game master like her?
But becoming a magic pet is only limited by size. In theory, if there is a legendary demilich (only the size of a head) who is willing to become someone else's magic pet, then the owner will skyrocket.
Now that the cloak is in hand, all it needs is a user. I thought to myself as the days are long and the nights are short.
However, if he continues to level up, he can turn into a large yellow wasp at level 15, and he can turn into a hellhound raised by Khaled at level 17. It’s just that ordinary [Transformation] cannot simulate the extraordinary abilities of these magical creatures - such as hell.
The dog's fire breath has the physical form of these monsters, including a body of strength and natural weapons such as teeth, spikes, swords and claws.
"By the way, Duncan, don't forget to send out the strategy for getting stuck on the map. I heard that you are writing a strategy for "Dawn" recently, and I am very interested in your strategy."
As long as you can get out of the map, players' efficiency in killing monsters and collecting materials will be greatly improved.
[Contract familiar: You can sign a familiar contract with a small or smaller creature that is no higher than you. Through a simple contract ceremony, the creature becomes your familiar. Within a distance of 30 meters, the familiar
You and I can communicate with each other through telepathy, and you can share the vision of your familiar. You can put your familiar into the demiplane or summon it to yourself at any time. You can only have one familiar.]
This is a game anyway, so he won't feel any psychological guilt for stealing the NPC's property.
"Duncan, I can reveal the location of the vault, but in exchange for this information, you have to bring Sunset's Crack into "Dawn"."
After the enemy captured the player's novice village, they directly guarded the resurrection point and killed the player when they saw the player's resurrection. The game experience was extremely poor.
And this is only a small part of the function of [Transformation].
"Anyway, I don't expect to collect enough soul coins right away. Let's wait a few months."
After breaking through the first level, a set of passive talents was placed in front of her.
[Manipulation of Dead Corpses] requires the consumption of [Black Onyx] as a casting material when released to convert one or more corpses into zombies or skeletons.
The more Duncan looked at this spell, the more powerful it became.
[Choose one from the following expertise and career features]
He took off his bright silver helmet.
"I also want to see how to control a dead body."
This feat allows players to use materials to synthesize magical items. For example, the [Northern Ice String] used by Duncan before is a magical item.
As long as it becomes a creature with the ability to fly, it can fly at will during the 10-minute spell duration.
If you really have the opportunity to collect the second half of the remaining volume of the "True Polymorph" magic book in the future, you can upgrade the current "Transformation" to the golden legendary "True Polymorph"
.
Duncan was lost in thought.
"But in the short term, no player should be able to collect 150 soul coins yet. Players who want to create a guild need to gradually gain soul coins through future tasks."
He tried hard to control himself not to lose his temper due to excitement. There was an uncontrollable smile on the corner of his small mouth. Infinite joy was rolling in his heart.
This spell can be released before the battle! Create the undead deployment in advance and increase the number of your own units without delaying the time in the battle to cast the spell, avoiding the forward and backward shaking and the cooling down period of spell casting.
"The novice village is completely destroyed, all functional buildings cannot operate, is the game too realistic?"
"However, if a monster attacks the city or is tested by Bell's men, as long as the player community has more players above level 10 and well-equipped as soon as possible, it will be possible to resist."
If his good luck can continue into "Dawn", it will be limitless.
In his previous life, Duncan released the guide too late. When the "Fall of Novice Village" event occurred more than 20 days later, no players knew that they could get out of the map to spawn monsters.
Talents are divided into two types, those that can be chosen from multiple professions are called expertise, and those that are limited to professions are called career characteristics.
Duncan quit "Dawn" and returned to reality.
Of course, the most important benefit of this trip is the Stalker's artifact - [Nightcrawler Cloak].
This is hell. Referring to the wasteland gangs on the first level of the Nine Hells, even ordinary thugs have first-level strength.
First of all, after reaching level 10 and becoming a first-level professional, you can also choose to obtain new talents.
Immediately, the dwarf mage spread out his hands again, showing a helpless look:
She only vaguely remembered that this incident caused the reputation of "Dawn" to plummet when it had just reached its peak, and it fell all the way to the bottom, even causing half of the closed beta players to quit the game. Fortunately, the quality of "Dawn" was strong enough, and it was recovered later.
A lot of reputation.
If you want to become the number one strategy master in "Dawn", you must not let go of the expertise that introduces new mechanisms and new systems.
Duncan slowly opened the description of the transformation spell in the card interface. At this time, the card was gray, which meant that it could only be used again the next day.
The heat in the scorching air of hell disappeared. He opened his eyes and saw only oil-stained walls. The numbness in his legs caused by sitting on the chair for too long shocked him.
"The rewards from this adventure are so great." Duncan couldn't help but sigh.
Duncan estimated that if he met the wandering businessman Khaled again, Xia Yu and the three of them could easily defeat Khaled on his own, given the long days and short nights!
Rather than needing dozens of players to besiege it like before, and finally resorting to the help of hell chariots.
Duncan stretched out and relaxed, his shoulders stiffened from being caught up in the game just now. He immediately took out his mobile phone and found a familiar name in the contact column——
