Brando lined up eleven handicraft-like daggers, then used a silver hammer to break the tree crystal from the withered beast's body and melt it into the alchemical liquid. Then he turned back and said:
"Tamar, why don't you give it a try?"
"Me?" The middle-aged man standing behind Brando was slightly stunned, but there was an eager look on his face. Although the future master of alchemy is usually taciturn, when it comes to alchemy,
I couldn't help but talk loudly.
But no matter how much I talk about it, it's not as good as trying it myself. Although Tamar is known as an alchemist in the House of Nobles, she just helps purify some insignificant materials on weekdays - after all, nobles with a little bit of status
Most of them have their own alchemists and will not reveal their secrets easily.
Therefore, this was Tamar's first time refining magic items with his own hands. So when he looked at the eleven daggers, his throat couldn't help but move for a moment.
Brando smiled and nodded. Tamar's alchemy skills improved rapidly. When they first met, he guessed that he should have level 3 alchemy based on the other person's actual ability and experience, but now he estimates that he is almost at level 5.
Already.
At this rate, it won't be long before the future master of alchemy surpasses him and enters the ranks of professional alchemists, which makes Brando have to lament the power of talent.
Of course, this is also due to the extensive practice of purifying evening primrose, fluorescent moss and black mage over the past month - Brando's own alchemy skills were locked at level five as a civilian, so he simply threw away all opportunities to practice.
This future master of alchemy has led to Tamar's rapid progress in the past month.
But the alchemy master seemed unaware of his talent, so much so that when Brando revealed his intention to recruit, the latter readily agreed due to the dual gratitude of saving his life and the kindness of knowing him, and even took the initiative to reduce the vast majority of his talent.
Part of the commission. Brando originally proposed an annuity of 30,000, but the future master of alchemy only wanted one-sixth of the symbolic amount.
Five thousand gold to hire an alchemy master, even for retainers, costs more than this. But Brando is not worried. Anyway, noble alchemists are very personal and generally will not break away from the contract. Besides, he also believes that even in the future
I can afford the price to keep Tamar.
Because no one knows better than him what this master of alchemy can do.
"Okay, I'll give it a try." The middle-aged man only thought about it for a moment and then agreed immediately.
Brando smiled. What he admired was the other person's confidence in his professional field.
When the alchemy laboratory calmed down, the young man casually pulled out a book on aristocratic history from the bookshelf and started reading. His knowledge of nobility and heraldry had reached level 6 in the past few days.
The scholar level therefore reaches level 11.
In addition to upgrading the skills and experience he gained from military swordsmanship to level (6+1), first aid to level 4, and white crow swordsmanship to level 2, he also acquired weapon proficiency (mercenary) and crossbow proficiency (
Mercenaries), stealth and tree toughness.
Weapon proficiency is a unique skill for mercenaries and warriors, and is also the core skill of mercenaries. It has only one level, and its core introduction has only one sentence: a character with this skill is as if he has systematically learned how to use all military and simple weapons, even if
He had never done any relevant training before.
To put it bluntly, this skill saves a lot of skill experience, and it is also suitable for mercenaries, who are all-rounders on the battlefield. Some good people have calculated how much skill experience will be wasted if a character wants to be proficient in all weapons and does not practice this skill.
The final result is about 12,000 to 13,000, which is a huge investment even in the late game.
Therefore, many other professions in the game are part-time mercenaries/fighters mostly just for this skill. But in other words, apart from warriors and mercenaries, there are few other professions that use so many weapons.
Crossbow specialization is about in-depth training of crossbows. Different professions often have different weapon specializations, but mercenaries have almost all weapon specialization skills except wands, scepters and staffs. In this regard, he is even better than
The warrior goes one step further. After all, a mercenary is synonymous with a generalist. He can even practice spells, but the result of being all-rounder is to be proficient in nothing. This is also the biggest flaw of the mercenary profession.
Stealth skills come from professions such as nightingales who often move in the dark, while tree tenacity comes from druids. This is an actively activated self-protection skill, and it is also one of the most practical non-core skills of druids. It
It can convert mana into a tree trunk shape within a period of time, increasing natural protection by 50% per level.
This skill is extremely practical when combined with a large number of natural protective amulets, and it is also one of Brando's most commonly used tactical structures in the later period.
Of course, the main reason is that these two skills are clearly priced at the Royal Geographic Society in Prague, and young people will naturally not let them go. There are not many opportunities to learn cross-professional skills, not to mention that there is no need to do tasks.
Of course, after completing these skills one by one, the hundreds of skill experience points squeezed out of the scholar profession were all used up. In fact, Brando also knows that the skill experience in the game is originally a means of compensation, and the game requires more
Players upgrade their skills through practice and use - but Brando doesn't have the time now.
I think he had a good battle in the Sharp Stone Valley, and his swordsmanship was only about to become 6+2.
But the book in Brando's hand had only turned a few pages when Tamar's alchemy was completed. The future alchemy master excitedly took out a dagger, as if he was a child.
Showing off his toys, he said:
"Sir, it's done!"
"So fast?" Brando glanced at the time quietly, and the hourglass had only fallen by one-third: "No waste?"
"No." Tamar shook her head confidently.
Brando couldn't help but marvel that the first time he tried to make magic items, there were no scraps. This is not something ordinary people can do. Remember that before he made alchemy a hundred times in the game, his failure rate was as high as 46%, which is not bad.
Excellent in new hands.
While sighing, he took the dagger and took a look at it, while opening the attribute display. These gadgets were all 1-2 damage whiteboard weapons bought from the blacksmith workshop, but this time they had been added with (1-1 poison).
) suffix. The name of the dagger also became 'Tread Poison-Quenching Dagger'.
The label is black iron grade.
Brando put the dagger back on the iron plate and thought about it. It was amazing that this little thing could be sold for about two thousand Thors each. After all, most of his customers should be just lower-class nobles or thieves - big
Nobles have their own personal alchemists and look down on these gadgets.
Twenty thousand Thors, which is still a bit far behind the number he promised to little Roman.
But the young man was not worried. He took out a high-quality tree crystal from the golden magic tree and a dwarf dagger bought by Bottom.
"The next one is a little more troublesome, Tamar, let's do it together." He replied.
"Together?" Tamar was slightly startled. Most alchemists complete tasks independently, but at most they team up with wizards. I have never heard of two alchemists working together without the magic ripples interfering with each other.
But Brando had no such concerns. He drew a circular magic circle on the ground with chalk, and then began to trace numbers and runes around the magic circle. Tamar watched him complete all this, and her eyes gradually turned to surprise.
He saw that those numbers were the coordinates of the constellations used by wizards.
Then Brando raised his head, pointed at the second section of the magic circle and said to Tamar: "Come here."
At this moment, Tamar saw the completed magic circle on the ground, and his heart was unimaginably shocked. He was stunned for a long time, and then blurted out: "Sir, is this a ring ceremony?"
"Ritual of the Ring?"
"I heard that only the wizards of Buga have mastered this secret technique. The Grand Master standing on the main star can use the power of many people to complete spells or alchemy. Sir, is this——?
"Almost, this is a simplified version of sixteen people. If I have a chance, I will draw a complete ring formation of thirty-two and sixty-four people for you to see." Brando then nodded. In Tamar's eyes,
What is incredible is that in his world, it is a skill that every player must master.
The middle-aged man's eyes immediately glowed with fanaticism. The future master of alchemy nodded quickly and stood in the magic circle with an impatient look, as if he couldn't wait to witness the power of this magic circle even more than Brando.
Brando smiled, and he picked up the sword - the dwarf's dagger was made into a beautiful long-pointed trapezoid according to the aesthetic style of the people of the mountains, and the surface was infused with the magic of the rock. The young man put his fingers on
After experiencing it for a while, he realized that it was a spell like Rock Edge. Fortunately, the magic of the earth did not conflict with the magic of nature, so it did not affect his subsequent work.
So he took a fine gold chisel and struck a hole in the dagger.
"Ouch." Bottom couldn't help but yelled at the door at this time.
"What are you talking about, Bottom." Brando was almost frightened by this guy and his hands shook. If he hadn't been so good at it, this sword with a value of 1,500 Thor would have been scrapped.
.
At this moment, Brando doesn't have the second money to buy another one.
The red-bearded mercenary knew that he almost got into trouble, so he honestly didn't answer. But his heart was bleeding. An ordinary craftsman would be heartbroken when he saw this knight ruining the work of the dwarf iron artist, right? It's a pity, right?
Brando didn't have this realization, so he picked up the chisel and struck again.
This hit almost hit Bottom's heart.
But Brando ignored him. He picked up the sword, put the tree crystal of the golden magic tree into the hole, and then nodded to Tamar. The two of them began to draw runes on both sides of the dagger for about half an hour.
After a flash, a brand new magic weapon appeared in the sight of the three people.
Brando picked up the pointed trapezoid sword. The golden earth runes and the new green natural runes complemented each other, but more importantly, its attributes were changed to 3-4 attack (3-3 poison).
In other words, this sword can almost rival the Thorn of Light in terms of lethality alone - of course, apart from being slightly less sharp, it also has no additional magical properties.
But this sword alone is enough to be labeled as brass. There is no problem in bidding 100,000 yuan on the underground black market. Because no matter whether they are nobles, adventurers or mercenaries, they will not mind having a good sword.
Even some knights who are not bound by secular treaties are not exempt.
Brando wiped his sweat as he looked at the sword. This was the first time in this world that he had refined more than 15 (oz) of magic equipment. The fourteen layers of runes almost made him collapse, but the gains were also very rich. Let's not talk about it for now.
He said that the sword itself was more perfect than he imagined, and he even felt that his alchemy skills were showing signs of breakthrough.
Brando is almost certain that as soon as he obtains the status of a knight noble, alchemy will immediately break through the current level and reach level (5+1).
And he raised his head to look at Tamar, and saw that the future master of alchemy still looked like he was still unfinished. His eyes were shining and he said to this side: "Sir, I think I seem to have figured out something. If
If nothing else, it should only be a matter of time before you master the higher-level runes and magic circles——"
Professional alchemist.
Brando was overjoyed. It seemed that he was going to add a professional alchemist to his staff. For non-players, level five is a bottleneck. As long as level five is exceeded, level ten alchemy is just around the corner. Once level ten is reached,
Alchemy can be used to create Dragon Slaying Arrows (40oz).
