Chapter 5: Magic Apprentice
An Yi quickly ran to the awning of the dusk pub, unscrewed the water stains on his clothes, and wiped the wet hair on his head. Looking at the heavy rain like water in front of me, I was a little speechless. In this kind of weather, even if you are the best orc, you will get drenched. The danger of illness.
In the novice stage, once you get sick, the attributes will be greatly reduced. If you have been sick for a long time and have no money to treat it, you will die of illness. Once you die, you can't be online for six hours in reality. The real time of the game is 4:1, so when you log in again, it has been a day for others. This punishment is too big for the beginning of the game.
An Yi searched in the pub hall, but couldn't find a guy named Stoke, so he had to ask the waiter of the pub and was told that Stoke was in the basement. So he passed through the long tunnel and finally found him in the basement.
Stoke is a rickety old man, wearing a tattered black robe, which is described as withered. His hands are like old branches, which makes people think that he is a zombie who has just crawled out of the coffin. His light blue eyes are vague but have no focal length.
An Yi did not underestimate the old man because he occasionally shot a dazzling light in his blank eyes, which is a reflection of the ultimate spiritual power.
"Hello, is this Mr. Stoke? I accepted the pharmacy task you issued and came here to get the details. An Yibin said politely that these are game knowledge obtained from the Internet and his game rules, so they must be treated respectfully.
The old man glanced at him casually and muttered, "I really don't know the depth of heaven and earth. Now everyone dares to degenerate. Is it possible that the white birds in the sky of the Holy Land are lazy? It was terrible to chase me back then." This is obviously about Anyi's choice of the evil alliance camp.
"Kid, my experiment has fallen into a bottleneck, but there is a lot of black dog blood missing. I don't have time to collect it. Now that you have accepted the task, go and collect 30 copies for me. I will pay you enough silver coins."
"System prompt, accept the task of collecting black dog blood, the task level is one star."
An Yi didn't think much about it. Maybe he was born with a strange temper. But there are not many mages in the town. He is likely to be the mentor of this novice town's legal profession. Because the name is not on his head, he hasn't mastered the reconnaissance skills and can't be sure about it.
An idea came to his mind and lingered. He wanted to seize the opportunity.
"Mr. Stoke, I don't want silver coins. Please accept me as a student."
Stoke turned his face, and his cold eyes glanced at Anyi's whole body, "Oh, you want to be a mage. Come here and let me have a look."
Stoke casually released a magic, and the cyan light shone and enveloped his body in an instant. He felt soaked in warm water, and the blue light penetrated through the skin, constantly scratching the cracks in the bones, which was creepy.
Stoke's light blue slowly turns into dark black, and his eyes are deep and bright, like obsidian, as if there is an inner texture. He looked at An Yi thoughtfully and said, "Do you want to be my student?"
"Yes, I want to learn magic."
"My magic is more special." Stoke stopped Anyi from interrupting and continued, "Learning my magic, maybe nine out of ten people can become magic apprentices, but only one or two of a hundred magic apprentices may become magicians. The power of the magic apprentice is not strong. It can only be used as a skill to make a living. You have to figure it out.
"..." What does this mean? Isn't he a mage tutor? That's the special NPC. Of course, An Yi will not give up this kind of good thing and said, "I would like to be your student."
"Hey, it's not that easy to be my student. In addition to the cunning dog-headed man, there is also a mutant werewolf in the Aloik jungle. Go and hunt for thirty werewolf tusks. Just take it as a test for you to get started. Stoke said with a strange smile.
"System prompt, do you accept the test task of Stoke Master Apprentice?"
"Don't worry, I won't give up halfway."
Unexpectedly, he received two tasks, and on the same road, the small good character surprised him a little. However, I always feel that this NPC is a little unintentional, and I hope it is an illusion.
"Well, I'll teach you a simple magic first to avoid being bitten by the werewolf."
Half an hour later, he came out of the dusk pub, and he had learned the first magic.
[Corrosion Arrow, level 1, attack 5-8, with corrosion penetration effect...]
The process of learning skills is definitely not comfortable. After that kind of fantasy white light, there is no skill on the skill panel. Maybe it's because of this that the game made by Genesis is so attractive.
An Yi is not stupid, but his first contact with magic inevitably suffers a big loss and is mercilessly ridiculed by Mr. Stoke. Then from how to brew magic, how to mobilize spiritual frequency, how to control the casting accuracy, and remembering the casting distance and brewing time and other aspects, you can really learn skills.
At this time, the heavy rain stops, and there are still six hours to light up. The field of vision of the human race in the night cannot exceed five meters. Many players spend 10 copper coins to buy torches in the grocery store. The lighting range of a torch is ten meters, which can burn for 1 hour, which provides convenience for players without dark vision to kill monsters at night.
Anyi spent 20 copper coins in the grocery store to buy a simple map scroll near the Spartan town, which was unfolded, and a small piece of the private view map immediately lit up. I bought two more torches, and there were just 10 copper coins left all over my body, which was not enough for a meal. After thinking about it, I found the hunter Torton and spent 10 copper coins to learn collection.
This is what the degenerate asked for, otherwise half of the money would not have been taken away by the NPC.
With the crowd, he walked out of the town.
The dirty, seemingly sinister dog-headed man lives in the tree holes and tunnels of the Aloik jungle. These lazy creatures have a strong interest in digging and digging holes. Recently, dogheads have become slaves of cruel werewolves. The cunning werewolf ruthlessly drove the dog-headed man to do endless hard work. From the moment they became slaves, the once docile dog-headed people began to be hostile to all the races that talked about their work.
The cold wind blew, and the hemp grass in front of him rustled and sent a strong smell of blood.
An Yi's first reaction was to rush up and kill the dog-headed man.
"Come out and die, puppies!" But there was a roar from beside him. An orc player held a knife with one hand, put on his posture and shouted loudly.
"Wanla~~" The hemp grass is divided on both sides, and the dog jumps out. A monster with black hair all over his body, hard thorns like iron, angry muscles, green eyes like copper bells with a big mouth open, half a foot long Sen Li's fangs, and his upright upper body is naked with an inverted wooden stick, roaring and howling at the orcs.
Three words on the top of the monster's head - "Dog-headed man."
"Ah, this is the dog-headed man! Is this guy stronger than the lion in the zoo a first-class monster? Do you still want to hang it to burst the copper plate? It's about the same as a snack in its stomach.
In an instant, An Yi only felt that the sky was dark, his teeth were fighting, and the conditioned reflection was behind the boulder. Orc players also felt something was wrong. When they were about to turn around and escape, four identical dog-headed people jumped out from the front and back of the front and back, and there was no way to escape.
Five dark shadows are pressed in the air, the fangs enter the body, and the blood is splashed everywhere. The orc player goes to chat with the goddess of creation, which is a must. It can be imagined that he will spit out some shocking and angry remarks on the official website forum when he can't go online.
Anyi also has consciousness - there is no happy land in the world, and it is not in virtual games.
