As dusk approaches, the tired bird leaves its nest and never returns—
It looks toward purgatory in the deep snow, and the smoke rises like a giant burning kiln.
It has a compassionate heart and weeps. Thorns sprout from its forehead and form bridges to save many people.
It is worshiped by the living and shouted as king, with thorns as its crown.
——"The Crow of Ilamat" Chapter 2, Section 3

[You have obtained relevant information about the saint]
Um?
Roland frowned in confusion.
Did you do something?
This time the system prompts appear completely unreasonable - you know, the system prompts are instant, there is no delay.
In other words, it means that I have just triggered something that can theoretically make me realize the existence of the saint.
...what exactly is it?
Roland turned back thoughtfully to look at Ram behind him.
The fire is blazing and the smoke is steaming. Even calling it purgatory is not an exaggeration.
It is true that so many lives passed away in front of you, this is a shock.
Just like an avalanche or a typhoon. The mere existence of a disaster of that level is enough to bring about a huge shock.
Therefore, Roland felt sad for the loss of so many lives because of his human identity, but he did not feel pity for it.
If Roland destroyed them with his own hands and then felt pity for it - that would not be a sign of mercy, but just a lack of enthusiasm. Even if they died, they would still feel unwilling to know that they died of such a hesitant and weak villain.
Although he unexpectedly learned in the end that Falina was only looking for the undead in the name of hunting him, Roland had no doubt that if her guards could find her by the way, they would never mind taking them back with them.
Falina let Roland run away the first time just because she was not sure who Roland belonged to. But if Roland is captured by her for the second time, it means that no matter who is behind Roland, that person has given up on Roland.
.
That woman would never have mercy on anyone, and Roland knew what she was thinking, because the two of them were the same person.
If the two people's positions were reversed, Roland would do the same.
Therefore, Roland will never resent or hate Farina, he simply feels that the two of them cannot get along.
Roland stared at the burning town of Ram in trance, the firelight dancing in his eyes as dark as the abyss.
Moreover, he is still waiting for something else...
【Shocking! You caused a disaster!】
Coming.
Different from the previous azure blue, the huge and bright red system prompts were reflected in Roland's eyes, overlapping with the burning town in the distance and almost indistinguishable.
After waiting for a while, a large bright red system prompt came down.
[You have proven your determination - all your existing kindness offsets are cleared]
[You get the trait of killing people like hemp (personal trait)]
[You get the trait executioner (personal trait)]
[You get the trait Cruel Thoughts (personal trait)]
[You killed 194 formal level professionals and 13 black iron level professionals...]
[You killed 194 formal level professionals and 13 black iron level professionals with a disaster, extracting the original power... You finally got 1410 experience points]
[You have understood the true meaning of Ashes: You have understood the divine spell Ashes Nova from the way of Ashes]
At this point, the bright red system prompt gradually faded away and turned back to blue.
When Roland saw this nearly massive amount of experience points, he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
Contrary to his excitement, Roland's expression became increasingly cold.
He thought almost indifferently in his heart: "Raise the level of the Embers."
After raising the level of the Embers to the current full level, Roland did not stop working.
Although more than a thousand experience points may seem like a lot, and you can't even use them all - but in fact, that's just an illusion.
Such a large amount of experience can only quickly improve attributes at a low level. After all, the experience required to upgrade any occupation will increase with each level up. However, if the occupation does not change when upgrading, the attributes added at each level will not change.
Of course, this only looks at attributes, not things like magic and other characteristics.
If Roland focuses on improving the attributes of the Embers, a little calculation will show that this is definitely not cost-effective.
Roland's natural perception is 2, but after switching to Embers, it became 3. Then, if the perception increases by +0.35 for each level, Roland needs to increase it by a full twenty levels!
The most difficult part here is that Roland's last level cannot be improved until he reaches the bronze level. Once upgraded, the experience required to increase the professional level will be doubled. This level of improvement is equivalent to being consumed out of thin air.
He gained a lot of experience - after all, Roland wanted to get rid of the Embers directly after changing his profession, and this experience would not be returned.
The most important thing is that after Roland got the profession of Death Crow, he had to bear the experience penalty of Bronze level to upgrade Death Crow's level from scratch! The added experience between each level is as high as 24 points!
But now if Roland raises the level of the warrior, and has the 0.9 perception increased by upgrading the warrior profession to the full level, in the end Roland will be enough to get ten points of perception attribute without having to do advanced tasks. In this way, everyone will die
The experience points for each level up are only 12 points, which is half less than the previous option.
Therefore, even if Roland does not have the racial trait of versatility, he still has to work part-time in one profession despite the experience penalty - at least to ensure that he can get ten points of perception before breaking through to the bronze level.
Therefore, compared with Roland investing all his experience in the Embers profession, it is better to first increase the level of warriors to saturation. No matter from which point of view, Roland will make a lot of money.
"Improve the warrior professional level."
Thinking of this, Roland put his valuable experience into the warrior's experience pool without hesitation.
[You have learned the attack stance from years of training: a focused attack]
Suddenly, the experience in Roland's experience pool plus the experience of bringing the undead to the point of death left a total of less than 800 experience points.
Half of the experience of one thousand and four years was lost in the blink of an eye.
If Roland invested all his experience in the Embers after upgrading, then the experience would be enough to raise the level of the Embers to level 16.
But he decided to take it slow first. With two full-level formal professions, Roland had no problem protecting himself on such a relatively low-level map.
It's time for him to gain experience.
After all, if you encounter a crisis that requires a high-level warrior to survive, or come across a rare stance, or if you need experience to learn magical skills in an instant, if Roland has no experience at all, then
That's when I fell into trouble.
What's more, Roland also wants to become a weapons master.
So, Roland decisively opened his attribute bar.
He wanted to see how much perception he still had before he could reach 10——
Roland Baiqian, half-elf (balanced bloodline), male
...Speaking of which, whether he got the murderer or the executioner, Roland expected it. On the contrary, he did not get the ability to move natural disasters, but unexpectedly got the attribute of cruel thinking. These two things surprised Roland slightly.
In fact, the big reason why Roland did such an excessive thing is because of these characteristics——
Murderous (personal characteristics)
Effect: Will attribute +1, evil tendency +15
——The people you kill can fill a well.
Executioner (Personal Traits)
Effect: Will attribute +1, evil tendency +40
——A massacre! You killed a hundred people who had no resistance to you!
Cruel thinking (personal characteristics)
Effect: You will not be affected by witchcraft such as charm and friendship, divine magic, and supernatural abilities with similar functions, regardless of the strength gap between you and the other party.
——What did you say? A child who has no power to resist? No, it's just two silver coins.
The first two characteristics are purely achievement characteristics. Roland is not surprised that he got these two personal characteristics.
Because both of Roland's professions are weak in will, if he didn't use his characteristics to reach five points, Roland would have no way to resist when faced with those nightingales' charm spells in the City of Fortune, or if he was tricked by anesthetics.
Speaking of which...
"Little Roland, why do you dress like this?"
Kruveen pressed his temples with a headache.
"Don't call me Roland, call me Hellan. I can't reveal my real name."
"Okay, Hellan...don't you know that it would be dangerous to go to the City of Fortune like this?"
"Of course I know," Roland turned around and showed a cold smile, "But if not, how can we get some people to take the bait?"
Kluvien shuddered violently.
Although he didn't know who Roland was going for, Kruveen felt deeply uneasy.
"I said, Roland... I mean Hellan, let me remind you first, the City of Fortune is different from Ram here..."
"Of course I know."
Roland's expression suddenly softened, and there was no trace of ferocity in his eyes, and he was as gentle as jade.
"In the City of Fortune, as long as it is not discovered, it is not a crime, right?"
Roland held the suitcase in front of him, tilted his head, and his voice suddenly became sweet and light.
The next second, his voice became hoarse again: "For me, there is no place better than this."
So, Roland turned around, and the snowflakes fell on his black windbreaker, then melted, leaving a faint trace and then disappeared.
But the moment Roland turned around completely, he received another system prompt:
[The Chosen One (Eternal Sleep Mentor) failed the trial, you have two more chances]
[You have obtained relevant information about the Crown of Thorns]
Eh?
Damn it?
Roland, who had been full of personality before, was confused at that time.
...Wait, what have I done? Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotian.net
