Chapter 14
The boss gave 75% of the experience, and the task gave another 60%, and Ye Xu directly rose to level 5. His cloth armor robe needs to be level 5 to wear, and he was thinking of leveling up, but now he doesn’t need it.
The thunderbolt given by the quest is a 5th-level blue skill book, which is very precious at this stage. It can be regarded as a sky-high luxury item, and it is not a problem to sell it for five gold coins.
Its skill effect is to throw a huge lightning ball, causing a lightning attack to a single target of the enemy within 20 yards, gaining 200% attack damage, and a 2-second paralysis effect; at the same time, because the lightning ball hits the target, it will explode , so enemies within 5 yards of the target will receive 50% splash damage and paralyze for 1 second.
“Paralyze”: The target’s attack and movement speed are reduced by 20%, and this effect can be dispelled by unlocking skills.
This is a small group attack skill, and the cooldown is not long, only 10 seconds. You need a level 5 legal profession to learn, not limited to mage, priest, wizard or summoner, as long as it is a legal profession.
Ye Xu is not yet employed and cannot learn skills. He put away the skill book and decided to do the inaugural task first.
The reward given by the blue quest is indeed generous, Ye Xu did not expect that the coin reward alone would give 2 gold coins. He curiously asked what rewards the other team members got, and only then did he know that they didn’t get so many coins. Maybe because Ye Xu was the master of the task, the others only got 1 gold coin, but even so, they were quite satisfied.
Relying on the experience points given by the boss and the task, many people in the team have risen to the fourth level. And the probability of getting the equipment is quite high, five out of ten people got the equipment, but unfortunately they are all equipment from the physics department, not from the law department.
The gear comes in white and green, and no one gets blue. The only two blue items are Ye Xu’s skill book, and another person’s blue-grade red potion, which is the legendary intermediate-grade red potion. One bottle can restore 500 HP.
The player who got the potion was very depressed: “Is this luck or bad? I finally got a blue item, but it turned out to be a potion, and it’s gone after one sip. My HP is not yet 500, and it will be in a few days. This kind of red potion should be rotten on the street, right?”
Everyone looked at him sympathetically, but he got something anyway, there are still people in the team who haven’t given out reward items, only gold coins and experience.
“Before we entered the game, we deliberately selected accounts with high luck value, so only more than half of the people got the reward. If we switch to an account with ordinary lucky value, the probability of getting rewards is estimated to be quite difficult.” Before parting, the teammates did not Forgetting to complain about the drop rate of the bullshit, it is obviously because of the fact that there is no reward for the first kill.
“If I don’t give a reward for the first kill in the dungeon, I must go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to complain about this dog game.”
“Add me.”
“I am going too!”
“+111111”
Ye Xu felt that it was useless to complain. This is a very thief to break the company, and the routine is one after the other, and the way to deal with it must have been prepared long ago.
After everyone left, Ye Xu was also about to go to the summoner mentor to do the inauguration task, but was stopped by the village chief. It seems that there is a follow-up mission, but only one person can take it, so the village chief has been quiet like a chicken before, waiting for others to leave.
Village Chief: “The previous task was just an appetizer, and I have a more difficult task for you.”
Ye Xu keenly smelled the breath of the pit, but there was a task that he didn’t accept, and it seemed that the rank of this task was quite high, at least not worse than that of the weasel. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded.
“This task is a little bit cumbersome.” The village chief was very satisfied with his helpfulness, and said a lot of nonsense, “But you are enough to complete it alone, so I secretly left it to you, not letting your friends Let’s get a piece of the pie.”
Ye Xu: I thank you! Can you tell me what task? I’m in a hurry to get a job!
The village chief finally got to the point: “Although the weasel has been resolved, the village is still in danger. In order to avoid such a thing from happening again, we need to take precautions. Dear little leaves, are you willing to help the villagers acquire some of the mutations on the mountain? Thorns? These mutant thorns are installed on the fence to effectively resist invasion, and we need 1,000 thorns.”
Ye Xu: “???”
You repeat, how many copies do you need? !
“One thousand copies.” The old village chief smiled kindly.
Ye Xu couldn’t believe it, this guy actually asked for 1,000 copies! Not 10, not 100, but 1000! If the thorns are materials that can be collected directly, it’s fine, but if it is a monster, wouldn’t he have to fight 1,000 thorn monsters? !
The old guy also emphasized that he was left to do the task by himself, definitely trying to kill him on purpose. But seeing that the quest level was blue, Ye Xu took it with humiliation.
[You accepted the quest “Collecting Mutated Thorns”, quest level: blue. 】
The thousand projects were huge, and Ye Xu could only be prepared to fight monsters for a few hours.
However, the top priority is to take up the job first. After taking up the job, you can learn several skills. The summoner has a small helper who can help kill monsters. And after taking office, all attributes will have a 10% bonus, killing monsters will be much easier than now.
The only problem is that he doesn’t have a staff, and the legal profession needs a staff to cast magic. But only players after level 5 need staffs, so monsters before level 5 will not drop staffs. Therefore, he had to farm monsters with melee weapons first, and then he could not start using skills until he dropped his staff.
Ye Xu sighed deeply, feeling that the road ahead was difficult. When passing the blacksmith shop, he suddenly stopped.
Wait, he can buy equipment!
With a huge sum of 2 gold, whether he wants to go to the blacksmith shop to buy a staff, or find a player outside the stall, it is not a problem. As long as he doesn’t think about the blue staff, which one he can’t afford is the green level and below? Even if there is a blue staff, people are reluctant to sell it.
He remembered that Gusuli seemed to have been practicing forging at the blacksmith shop, so he turned around and went into the blacksmith shop to find Gusuli with a sledgehammer.
Hearing that Ye Xu wanted to buy a staff, he directly called up the shop’s trading interface and helped him accurately search for a few staffs: “These are relatively cost-effective, Young Master Ye, see which one you want to buy. If you don’t like it either. , you can also pay a blacksmith to help you build it, but you have to bring your own materials.”
It is too troublesome to prepare your own materials. The fifth-level staff is just a transitional equipment and will be eliminated soon. There is no need to buy too much. So Ye Xu directly picked the one with the highest attack power bonus, which was a level 5 green outfit and cost 1 gold coin.
The things in the blacksmith shop are really too expensive. The market price of this equipment is at most 80 silver coins, and he directly increases the price by 25%. If not in a hurry, Ye Xu would rather find the players who set up the stall. It’s a pity that at this stage, the number of 5th-level players is rare, and there are not many 5th-level equipment.
After saying goodbye to Gusuli, I finally came to the inauguration hall. The inaugural hall is actually very close to the blacksmith shop. After entering, it is divided into eight areas, and each area has several instructors responsible for receiving players.
I heard that every time the top 100 players who take up a job or advance in their careers will have very generous extra rewards, and they will also be notified of the whole server. Although Ye Xu blocked the system notification, but occasionally glanced at the system channel, he could still see the notifications that kept popping up. I don’t know if there are more than 100 people who have succeeded in taking up jobs at this time. With so many people in the service, he may have no hope.
However, the top 100 in the whole server can’t squeeze in, and the top 100 in the whole summoner can still win. The rewards for the top 100 in a single occupation are not as generous, but they are not too much. It is still a good thing for a newcomer who is poor and white.
Ye Xu picked a female NPC with a gentle temperament, with a warm smile on her face, leaning on the powerful stone giant, she was easy to talk at first glance, and she should not deliberately make things difficult for people.
Seeing Ye Xu coming over, her eyes lit up, and she asked earnestly, “Young man, are you here to take up a job as a summoner?”
Ye Xu: “…” Always feel that the other party seems to be too enthusiastic?
The teacher’s smile became more and more kind: “Don’t worry, our Summoner Guild has always adhered to the principle of harmony and friendship, and will never deliberately embarrass new children.”
…you say that, it makes people even more uneasy.
Ye Xu subconsciously took a step back and wanted to leave. He has just been tricked by the old village chief once, and he has a bit of ptsd in a short period of time. But the tutor didn’t give him a chance to escape at all, and caught him back.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m telling the truth.” In order to prove that she really had no bad intentions, she quickly posted the inaugural task, “Come on dear, this is the easiest task I have at hand.”
[Do you accept the inaugural task “Buy Forest Staff”? Quest Grade: Green. 】
“A good summoner must have a powerful staff, and the forest staff sold in the blacksmith shop is the best staff that can be bought in the town.” The instructor pretended to be serious, “The summoner is a burner. The profession of money, if you don’t have a strong economic foundation, you will not be able to do anything. So dear child, you must prove that you have the capital to become a summoner.”
To put it bluntly, it is to prove that you have money, can buy good equipment, and buy powerful summons.
Ye Xu was speechless for a while.
This task is not easy to say, and if it is difficult, it is really not difficult for him. Especially since he had just bought a staff, and it happened to be this forest staff, because it was the only green staff in the blacksmith shop.
“Does it count if you bought it before?” Ye Xu said, and took out the staff from the package.
The tutor was stunned for two seconds, and then showed a bright smile: “Little cutie, it seems that you are richer than I thought! In this case, your inaugural mission is complete, take your staff to take the risk Bar!”
After the instructor finished speaking, he stretched out a hand and said something. After a spell ended, a colorful light ball condensed in the palm of the hand. She gently sent the ball of light into Ye Xu’s body, and at the same time, various system prompts rang frantically in Ye Xu’s ears.
[Congratulations to the player for completing the green task “Buy the Forest Staff”, obtaining 5 silver coins, 15% experience, and 5 achievement points. 】
[You have taken up a job as [Summoner Apprentice]. 】
[Your attribute growth point has changed, please check carefully. 】
[You are the tenth player in the entire server to complete the inauguration of the Summoner, do you want to hide the game ID? 】
Ye Xu: “??????”
Are there so few people who are employed as summoners? No wonder the female tutor was so excited when she saw him just now. She dared to say that they had too few union members, for fear that this new blood that had finally appeared would run away.
Ye Xu never imagined that he would be able to squeeze into the top ten in the profession because their profession was too unpopular.
