Chapter 8 The First Mercenary's Job Change
After obtaining the commander's warrant, the plot ends here. The mercenary commander and knight were also missing. They were probably busy preparing for the subsequent battle. But now the teleportation array is broken, and Chen Fei can't leave.
"Ding dong", the system prompts again: In 20 minutes, the training ground will be attacked by the tribe team, and players can assist the NPC in defending. If you persist for 10 minutes, you will receive help from reinforcements.
Obviously, the next part of the plot is a defensive mission. But Chen Fei doesn't intend to consider this at this time. For now, he should first improve his combat power.
When you come to the place where high-level units are concentrated, click on these NPCs. It is no longer the previous chat. Instead, there is an additional option of "I want to receive your guidance". Click on this to see these units. careers available. After some selection, Chen Fei decided on several choices.
First of all, he already has his own plans for the hero's profession, so he will not change professions here. Following, two novice mercenaries, Chen Fei planned to move closer and further away, and did not consider the melee combat of the meat shield type - although the meat shield played a very important role in the battle, in the early stage of leveling, as long as Knowing how to control the hatred system, the role of human shield is not as great as imagined.
In terms of close combat, Chen Fei selected the following:
Hammer Warrior: Level 3, health 450, magic 180, attack 23-28, attack speed medium, heavy armor 3. Heavy hit: Passive, causing 15% extra damage and causing a one-second stun. Heavy weapons: Passive, dealing 120% damage to heavy armor and plate armor, basic attack damage. Shock Hammer: Consumes 75 mana, slams the ground, causing 75 damage to surrounding units, slowing down for 3-5 times, and slowing down by 30%. Cooldown 15 seconds.
Charge Knight: Level 4, health 500, magic 200, attack 20-25, attack speed normal, heavy armor 4. Charge: Passive, the movement speed increases after 5 seconds out of combat, and the next attack will cause 1.5 times the damage. Invigorate: Consumes 50 mana, increases the movement speed of surrounding friendly units by 20%, lasts for 10 seconds, and cools down for 30 seconds.
Gale Swordsman: Level 3, life 400, magic 200, attack 23-26, fast attack speed, medium armor 3. Dodge: 10% chance to dodge normal attacks. Continuous Slash: Passive, basic attack has 10% chance to immediately add a second basic attack. Wind Blade Sword: Costs 100 mana. Attach wind magic to the weapon, which increases the magic damage by 5 points and ignores 2 points of armor defense. Lasts 20 seconds, cooldown 30 seconds.
[The above three professions all have level 0 attributes. Mercenaries can continue to upgrade in the future, and their attributes will be improved accordingly. The maximum level of a mercenary is fixed at ten levels for the first three levels. For each subsequent level, the maximum level increases by five levels. 】
These three melee professions have all been used by professional players in Chen Fei's memory of his previous life, and their combat effectiveness can be seen just by looking at the panel data. However, at this point, Chen Fei had trouble deciding which one to choose.
The output of the hammer warrior is very good, the heavy attack is also a passive skill, and the range deceleration of the shock hammer is very suitable for kiting tactics. But the Charge Knight is no less impressive, with much better attributes than the Hammer Warrior, and the Charge equals a 1.5 times fatal attack every 5 seconds. Invigoration also applies to kiting tactics. As for the Gale Swordsman, this guy's output is actually the strongest among the three professions. Once the Wind Blade Sword is opened, his attack power increases, regardless of armor. With his own attack speed and continuous slashing, it is absolutely terrifying!
After holding his chin and thinking for a while, Chen Fei finally decided to choose Gale Swordsman. Let me say here that when changing jobs, it does not mean that whichever profession you choose will be transferred to that profession immediately, but that you need to complete the corresponding tasks before the system will recognize that you have the ability to change jobs. If you fail to complete the task, the system will also punish you based on the completion of the task!
After deciding, Chen Fei didn't waste time and immediately clicked on the option of Gale Swordsman and chose one of the mercenaries to change his profession. Then, the NPC gave a prompt that a test needed to be conducted, and there was an option to start the test at the bottom of the dialogue. Chen Fei naturally clicked on it immediately.
"Ding dong! Players enter the Gale Swordsman job transfer test and need to defeat three ghost wolves. There are three chances. Currently 1/3."
As the system prompts, the mercenary who is about to transfer appears in a small room. Opposite him, three translucent ghost wolves rush up.
Ghost Wolf: Summoned creature, life 50, attack 10-10.
The attributes of the ghost wolf are very low, so its attack is just higher. But when its opponent is a novice mercenary with only 200 health and an attack of 10-10, such attributes are enough!
Controlling the mercenary to retreat temporarily, Chen Fei's mind was already quickly calculating: the mercenary needs to attack five times to kill a ghost wolf. But correspondingly, it needs to bear 5 rounds of damage, totaling 150 points. After that, 50 points of blood are left, and it can withstand up to 3 rounds of attacks from the remaining two ghost wolves. It’s simply not enough to defeat the ghost wolf!
It seems that this has become an impossible task!
Naturally, Chen Fei would not believe that this task could not be completed. The game never releases missions that cannot be completed. The key is just that you have to find the key points to complete the mission. Regarding the current situation, after calculation in Chen Fei's mind, he has found two key points!
One, the ghost wolf is melee! Another one, there are three ghost wolves!
After a rough simulation in his mind, Chen Fei officially started fighting!
The mercenary did not rush forward immediately, but continued to retreat. However, he did not retreat straight back as before, but retreated to the right rear. Soon the mercenary retreated to the wall, and the ghost wolf was less than three body lengths away! However, Chen Fei stopped the mercenary at this time and waited for the ghost wolf to approach!
In a few seconds, the ghost wolf was less than one body length away. At this moment, Chen Fei quickly operated!
The mercenary quickly moved to the right, and this movement caused the ghost wolf to turn around! However, the distance between the two was too close! It took the mercenary less than a second to stick to the ghost wolf on the right, and then both sides launched attacks at the same time! As for the other two ghost wolves, because of the blocking of their companions, only the middle one had time to catch up with the attack! As for the last one, maybe it can also attack in 0.5 seconds, but will Chen Fei give it a chance?
The answer is naturally no!
After the mercenary attacked, Chen Fei did not pause for a moment, and circled around the attacked ghost wolf, and then launched a second attack! The second ghost wolf still had time to attack, but it was still a few tenths of a second later than the first one! As for the third one, it was stuck by the second ghost wolf this time and still couldn't get close to the mercenary!
This is the key point that Chen Fei is looking for! Positioning! Blocking! In the game, the AI of wild monsters is quite low, which means that even if they have a number advantage, they may not really have an advantage! As long as they are used well, they will block each other! As a result, a wild monster cannot attack itself!
Continuing the third attack, to Chen Fei's surprise, the attack of the second ghost wolf was lost! This reminded him of something in the game that was not mentioned until later: when a unit attacks a moving unit, there is a certain probability of loss! After a series of unofficial tests, many players think that this probability is between 10%-25%. This involves whether the unit is melee or ranged, and whether the terrain is high or low!
However, this loss is another key point for Chen Fei.
After repeating the attack five times, Chen Fei successfully eliminated the first ghost wolf. During this period, he was attacked 8 times in total. Fortunately, one attack was lost, so the mercenary still had 130 HP. This is much better than resisting damage on the spot! But 130 HP against two ghost wolves is still dangerous, and Chen Fei dare not relax!
At this time, it is impossible to block the attack of the ghost wolf, after all, there are only two left. However, Chen Fei still has to continue to move. After each attack, he sticks to the attacked ghost wolf and circles in the direction of the other ghost wolf. In this way, four rounds just reduce its attack.
Soon, the second ghost wolf lies down! At this time, the mercenary still has 51 HP! It came back a little in the middle! This time, even if he just fights hard, Chen Fei is also no pressure! But in order to recover his previous life's operation faster and continue to break through on this basis, Chen Fei still chooses to move and attack.
In the end, the mercenary finally defeated the three ghost wolves with the last bit of blood! Although this victory was not more difficult than the previous experience, it made Chen Fei recall more operations! This will be of great help for further improvement in the future!
After the victory, the mercenary was teleported back from the room immediately. The system prompts: Congratulations to the player for completing the job transfer test of the Wind Swordsman. You can find the corresponding NPC to transfer.
It is naturally easy to find an NPC to transfer, it is right in front of you. Talk to him again and choose to confirm the job transfer.
As a burst of white light appeared on the hero, the system immediately prompted that his mercenary had successfully transferred to become a Wind Swordsman! Hurry up and open the mercenary's attributes. Looking at the attributes of the Wind Swordsman repeatedly, Chen Fei said that he was not excited, that would be a lie!
However, you can't be anxious to be happy at this moment. There is another mercenary who needs to transfer. And there are less than 15 minutes left before the attack of the tribe team!
Uh... I'm a little out of shape... Take it slowly.
