Chapter 274 If You Need Anything, Please Come to the Substitute.
May 10, Gospel Nation, Bathhouse of Funeral Service.
It was 7 o'clock in the morning and it was already dawn. Ash came over wearing swimming trunks and heard chatter in the bath. When he went in, he found that someone had already taken a seat in the bath.
Snapped!
Ash jumped directly in, causing a splash of water. Igura directly used his magical spirit to blow the water droplets back, with a look of disgust on his face: "(* ̄︿ ̄) How old are you, Ash? Have you graduated from the first class of the nursing home?"
On the other side, Harvey was lying on the recliner in the bathtub, smoking a cat grass cigarette, and the gurgling water beneath him was beating on his muscles. The necromancer also turned on the sunlight lamp on the ceiling, and the warm yellow rays of light shone on him. He looked so comfortable and comfortable, which completely explained what it means that "as long as you put your mind to it, there is a seaside".
Speaking of which, compared to Ash and Igula, Harvey is actually quite normal. He has dark skin and looks like a bricklayer, and he doesn't speak eccentrically. Although his moral bottom line is low, his desires are not high, and he is the type who takes things as they come.
If Harvey came to the gospel country alone, he would probably become a young man waiting to be picked up by some rich woman. He would do housework during the day and rob tombs at night. He would live a pleasant life.
Even if you include his necrophilia and sugar addiction, neither of them affects others. They only harm the corpse and himself. If you think about it carefully, it is not unacceptable...
Ash suddenly slapped his face with water and sank into the bathtub.
It's over, Ash thought.
After hanging out with this group of people for too long, Harvey, who looked slightly less bad than Iguala and An Nan, became more handsome.
"What were you talking about just now?" Ash was relaxing in the bath. His stiff body muscles responded to Ash's flattery with soreness: "Igula, are you recommending movies and TV shows again?"
"I recommended it but you didn't read it. Why did I recommend it?" Iguola said coldly: "The "The Redemption of Wife" I recommended last time is the most unmissable classic in the gospel country in the past ten years."
"It's not that I don't want to watch it, but I don't have time."
"You just need to drive it at 32x speed to see it."
"If I had a gun in my hand right now, I would kill you with one blow and then ask you why you didn't hide."
"We were just talking about artistic creation." Harvey exhaled a wisp of light green cat smoke and said, "How to create a character well."
Although it felt a little weird for them to talk about this, Ya Xiu didn't think too much and said casually: "Then you have really found the right person. Creating characters is my special skill. You must listen carefully to every word I say next. .”
"Why, were you a writer before? Have you written any masterpieces? I also read books in my free time. Maybe I have read your masterpiece." Igura sneered.
"Although I am not writing a book, my career requires character creation more than writing a book." Yaxiu said frankly: "In our industry, we rely on character creation to defraud children out of money."
Iguola subconsciously wanted to refute him, but after thinking about it he nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, you were the leader of the cult before. You are indeed a professional."
Ash thought that Igurah must have misunderstood the business scope of the cult leader, but he was too lazy to explain and continued: "The creation of a good character has many dimensions, including appearance, personality, ability, identity and background, ideals and visions... But In the final analysis, it boils down to two things: sexual function and functionality.”
Igura and Harvey blinked, obviously shocked by Ash's vulgar to the point.
"Beautiful and powerful, crazy beauties, unruly refrigerators, rich flowers in the world...the reason why these characters are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and popular is because their images meet the two major needs of sexual function and functionality. In your shaping When choosing a role, you have to think, can this role arouse your desires? Can this role solve your suffering? If the answer is yes, then this is a successful role."
"As for whether this character can become a classic that will be sung forever, it depends on a flash of inspiration and the course of history. You can't force it."
As the operations planner of a mobile game company, although Yaxiu has not directly participated in character creation, he has also taken internal training courses within the company and knows very well how character planning is used to defraud middle and high school students of money step by step. If personal creation is like a good article by Miaoshou Puppet, then the creation of mobile game companies is like an industrial assembly line. By arranging and combining popular elements to fill the 'sexual function' and 'functionality', people can't help but open it at a glance. Alipay level.
Harvey seemed to be greatly inspired. He cut off the cat grass cigarette and climbed out of the bath. He picked up the towel next to him and put it on his body: "As expected of the former cult leader, I should come to you for this kind of thing. I can't hold back the impulse of inspiration now. Let’s go back to the room to create.”
Watching Harvey leave in a hurry, Ash scratched his head: "It's strange, Harvey doesn't seem like someone who likes to write..."
Igura also walked out of the bath, shook his long hair full of water droplets, picked up the towel next to him and draped it casually on his body, combed his wet bangs up with his hands, and glanced at Ash.
"Who told you he wrote it?"
Ash stiffened and suddenly realized a possibility. He looked at Igula intently: "He asked about character creation techniques. Does he want to use them on virtual characters?"
Igula looked at him without saying a word and left the bathhouse directly.
Ash became frightened: "Is it an avatar?"
Ash was alone in the bath again. At this time, the sun slowly rose, Azula ushered in the bloom of a new day, and the warm light refracted into the bath.
Ash let the buoyancy lift his body and floated on the water like a dead corpse.
Three days ago, when Ash came back with An Nan early in the morning, he happened to see Igula and Harvey getting off work from the Void Realm, sitting in the living room, seemingly waiting for him to come back.
Ash felt a little guilty after going out without buying any gifts, so he invited them to the bathing pool and discussed the Keyzheng Gospel system with them to divert their attention.
However, this seemed to be a routine. After they clocked in and got off work in the virtual realm for the next three days, they would come to the bathhouse and talk trash while talking trash. Therefore, Ash soon realized that these two virtual realm exploration abilities were not inferior to them. Almost all of them came after dawn, which meant that everyone could explore the Time Continent for a full six hours.
Although they don't have maps or sports cars, and their skills, tricks, and depth are far inferior to Ash's, they seem to have unique exploration methods and are not weaker than Ash in terms of total time.
Ash even suspected that they had transportation, otherwise at least half of their soul energy would be consumed on the road. How could they last for 6 hours? It would be exhausted after 3 hours.
It's easy to guess Harvey's, he is either riding a skeleton horse or a skeleton man, or he may even be riding a skeleton to kill a ichthyosaur based on what he found on the spot. It's harder to guess for Igula. Is his spiritual faction powerful enough to hypnotize intelligent creatures to serve him? dog?
No, Ash recalled that when he was taking a bath yesterday, he asked Igura if he had done any bad things involving obscene information using spiritual miracles. Igura responded like this: "First of all, the kind of thing you imagined, I It can indeed be done. But even without a miracle, I can do it, and I'm tired of it a long time ago; then, Ash, shake the water in your head, since you can hypnotize yourself, why not hypnotize yourself?"
"Hypnotizing yourself is simpler and more efficient, and the plot, object, and content can be set by you. In reality, you may also be limited by your body functions. In the hallucination, you can be as violent as you want... In fact, the mind Magicians rarely hypnotize other people directly, but use verbal actions and other suggestions to induce others to think about the results they want."
"Only a bad mentalist will use miracles to achieve his goals. Most of the time, the person who is hypnotized by a mentalist is himself."
"Psychic factions are not about distorting others, but about shaping themselves."
Therefore, there is a high probability that Igula is not hypnotizing knowledge creatures, but hypnotizing himself that "walking is not tiring at all"!
In fact, this is what normal magicians encounter when exploring the virtual realm: magicians from different factions use different methods to solve the unfavorable factors in the virtual realm.
There is really nothing we can do about the Sea of Knowledge. Everyone was a slut at the beginning and had no choice but to swim across it. But by the time we reach the Time Continent, everyone has some factional foundation and has been able to find ways to reduce the negative impact of the environment.
This is actually a way of screening out magicians who cannot conquer the environment, and are the losers in the magician evolution system.
Like Yaxiu and the others who drove through the golden rain against the current, they were spoiled in a sense, completely missing out in the sorcerer's evolutionary system. If they fail to develop the ability to adapt to unfamiliar environments, they will sooner or later pay the price elsewhere.
Ashiu and others also know this, but they have no idea of making up for it until then. You have to dream a little, maybe you won't have to pay the price for the rest of your life?
Thinking of this, Ash turned his thumbwheel to summon the Gospel. When he turned to the page of the "Magician's Manual", a message immediately popped up.
"Growth Report of the Crazy Swordswoman 5.3~5.9"
"Swordsmanship Faction: Silver → Gold"
"Light Magic Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Water Magic Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Psychic Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Spell: Golden Void Wing→Golden Feather"
"Cultivation evaluation: A!"
"Because of the A-level evaluation, the Mad Swordsman of Death received the professional enhancement from the Magician's Manual: Wild Dancer → Metal Magician of Genocide!"
"Genocide Alchemist·Professional Feature: Increases damage to group knowledge creatures by 10%."
"Professional assessment task 'Crazy Dance' (10,000 slashes) completed! The professional characteristics of the Wild Dancer are permanently solidified!"
"Frenzy Dancer (Permanent Profession): Attacking the same target can increase the attack speed by 2%, which can be accumulated up to 5 times. If the attack target is transferred, it will be invalid immediately."
The main content of their virtual realm exploration in the past two days was to help Sword Girl complete the professional assessment task. Fortunately, Sword Girl obtained a new miracle 'Blood Flower Water Moon'. This miracle not only has high output instantly, but can be stacked dozens of times once it is activated. Slash, if a group of creatures are gathered together, hundreds of effective slashes can be executed instantly.
Even so, Yaxiu and others have also raided the homes of more than a dozen White Velociraptors, Fierce Wolf Dragons, and Bird Dragons in the past two days. Sword Girl's new profession, the "Metalmancer of Clan Destruction," is obviously related to this.
Just the essence of the materials obtained by confiscating the family and exterminating the clan is enough to feed Sword Queen's 'wave' and 'moon silk' magic spirits, as well as the Black and White Witch's 'water line' and 'claw' magic spirits into the two wings.
Ash looked at Sword Girl's interface and found that the occupation column had really changed to "Metalmancer/Frenzy Dancer of Genocide". However, Sword Princess's swordsmanship faction was promoted from silver to gold, and her training evaluation was only A. It seems that she can only get an S evaluation when her magic power is promoted.
This is very reasonable. If the S rating is easy to achieve and the professional assessment tasks are easy to trigger, then wouldn’t each operator have more than a dozen professions in the later stage?
Ash even thought of such an introduction: "Standing in front of you is the Dancer of the Storm, the White Flame on the Grave, the Sword Lord holding the Death Scepter, the Exterminator who kills the Fish Dragon... He has twenty The crazy swordswoman with three professions!"
Although there were no surprises, Sword Girl's growth did not disappoint Ash either. But when Ash opened the growth report of the Black and White Witch, the good mood of the day ended.
"The Black and White Witch's Growth Report 5.3~5.9"
"Psychic Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Fist Claw Faction: Gold→Gold"
"Time Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Water Magic Faction: Silver→Silver"
"Magic Power: One Golden Feather → Two Golden Feathers"
"Cultivation evaluation: B!"
"Because of the B-level evaluation, the Death Crazy Sword Princess received the professional enhancement from the Magician's Manual: Genocide Follower!"
"Kill the Followers: Increases damage to group knowledge creatures by 5%."
The rating is only B! ?
This is the first time that Ash has received such a comment. This is not a slap on the witch's butt. This is clearly a slap in his face!
However, he quickly calmed down after being soaked in the water. Before, Sword Princess was a blank slate from scratch. She upgraded quickly and naturally had a high evaluation. But the Witch started with two wings, her main faction reached gold level, and she also had several sub-factions. It was impossible to get a huge improvement in a short time, not to mention that she was in the 'Curse of the Bronze Dragon' and could not carry out normal training. She only had to train every day. Able to entertain.
If Sword Girl hadn't upgraded her swordsmanship faction to gold level this week, I'm afraid her evaluation would also be B.
In other words, starting from next week, if the operators do not have such progress as "significantly increasing their magic power" or "raising their faction to gold level", they may only get a B or even a C rating.
Want to draw a card? Ash looked at his savings and sighed like a poor couple.
These days, Yaxiu and others don't actually earn much from magic spirits. They mainly harvest materials to feed the magic spirits. In addition, after Yaxiu was promoted to the second wing, the recycling price of the first-wing magic spirit became 5 points, and the recycling price of the second-wing magic spirit became 5 points. The price is 10 points. After a week of accumulation, it is now only 211 points, which is still some distance away from the next first double of 328.
As for this week's training plan, it is natural that the Witch will continue to entertain and Sword Princess will continue to train... Ash paused and recalled that he seemed to have promised Sword Princess to arrange entertainment activities for her.
Sword Princess has three action points in total, and entertainment consumes two action points at a time, and even after playing, Ash can't be so mad as to let her continue training.
The main reason is that the training effect after entertainment may not be very good, just like if you squat in the toilet to play games, and go back to work after playing, you may still be thinking about how to play better in the game just now.
So it’s entertainment + rest, let Sword Girl enjoy the rose-colored campus life.
So, on which day should Sword Princess have a day off?
Ash thought for a while and put the 'Rose Day' on the 11th tomorrow.
He originally wanted to put it on today, but today is a bit special. In order to avoid accidents, he still let Sword Girl go to school and train as usual.
After setting up the training strategy, Ash also went back to his room to change clothes. He came out to find everyone gathered in the living room, and it didn't look like they were having breakfast.
"Ash, you're here at the right time," Igura said, "Let's do a multiple-choice question."
"Do you like this?" Igula handed over a potion bottle, which was full of dreamy powder.
"Do you still like this?" Liz held up a blood-stained mace.
"Or maybe you like this?" An Nan twisted a pair of silver handcuffs.
Handcuffs + mace + love potion =?
Ash's mind was spinning rapidly, and he immediately activated his magic spirit to summon a substitute. The avatar is ready for battle, ready to go through fire and water for Ash at any time.
"If you have any grudges, please vent them on the substitute. Don't mess with me!"
