Fang Plover grabbed the strong rope ladder and climbed up to the platform, and saw Baggins leaning on the side of the ship alone, staring at the sand in the distance in a daze. He said hello to the other party, and the boatswain just smiled at him and asked:
"Back, Captain?"
Fang Plover grabbed the side of the ship and turned it over, landing lightly on the deck. He nodded: "I went to the Craftsmen's Association to do some business. Where are the others?"
"under."
Fang Plover glanced down. In that direction, the grape trellis in the courtyard was covered with a layer of green shade. Under the scorching desert sun, it not only did not lose its vitality, but became more and more green and attractive. Under the dense clusters of leaves, stood Yu, Tianlan, Xiangxiang and Jita are conducting offensive and defensive drills with Red.
The lion paladin claimed to be in his early twenties, but when the people in the box were in their early teens, he would fight four by himself. When the four of them reached level 20, he would still fight three by himself, easily.
Tianlan was so angry that she wanted to throw the piano and said angrily: "Big Cat Man, you liar!"
Rhett smiled, put down his scepter, and twirled the golden ring on his beard with his paws. "That's an exaggeration, Tianlan. In fact, you don't have enough combat experience."
"I believe you," Tianlan said angrily: "My cold jokes have at least 50% effect on characters below level 20. How can there be 50%? It's obviously 10%. Not even that, and the effect lasts so short, liar!”
Red spread his hands: "I didn't say I was only level 20, did I?"
Fang Yu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He had actually seen that the big cat man's level was more than level 20, because during the battle with the Blood Shark Air Pirates, at least he and Luo Lin met the 'air pirate leader' 'He thinks he can't beat him.
And he asked himself that his combat power was not weak, and he could easily defeat opponents of the same level, which meant that the 'Air Pirates Leader' was at least much higher than level 20.
The big cat man not only proved his worth when facing this 'old enemy', he was able to win the battle. In fact, if it hadn't been for the subsequent events, he might have fulfilled his long-cherished wish in that duel and defeated his 'old enemy'. Got off. Fang Yu only heard that the other party seemed to have a relationship with the big cat man's sister, but the big cat man never mentioned this matter.
He is more knowledgeable than Tianlan and others. He has met everyone in the Dawn Star Adventure Group, as well as Qin Zhi and others from Silver Forest Crown. Therefore, he can roughly tell that the actual level of the big cat man may be the same as that of Sika. Miss Pei and the others are about the same, not yet level 30 - because careers change a lot after level 30, this aspect is easy to identify.
But at least it’s close——
As an aborigine, the opponent's actual combat effectiveness is even higher.
Tianlan below still looked angry and muttered:
"I don't care."
The big cat man only smiled slightly and did not refute.
Fang Plover put away the rope ladder, rolled it into a roll, and walked down.
When he went down to the patio, he discovered that there were other people here - the front half of the platform on Mr. Huiyan's back. The structure of the patio was to lead to other people's living rooms on the left and right. There were four doors in total, and in front was the platform. The boiler room/kitchen and dining room (conference room), and the medical room are also located on the side of the conference room, with a curtain separating one-third of the room.
Miss Nightingale was currently leaning outside her room with Tang Xin and Ai Xiaoxiao, holding a dagger with a dark blade in her hand, looking at it over and over intently.
However, she obviously did not lose her vigilance. At this moment, her ears twitched slightly. She turned around and saw Fang Plover in her eyes. She put down the dagger in her hand, raised her eyebrows and said, "Captain, are you back?"
Fang Yu nodded. He glanced at the dagger in the opponent's hand and recognized that it was not a magic weapon, but a token of the Brotherhood of Shadows.
"Still thinking about the trade-off?" He asked, looking at the dagger.
Alyssa nodded slightly.
Due to the recent situation in Kaolin-Ithulian becoming more disturbing day by day, because of the relationship with the Dragon Cult, it can be said that the Seven Seas Brigade is in this vortex, and everyone in the team is in such a situation. Under such circumstances, it is inevitable to feel some tension.
Even though he has a big heart like Parker, he occasionally practices his professional skills these days.
As for others, in addition to participating more in sparring with each other, they will also discuss privately in the team channel how to develop in the future.
Alyssa is naturally no exception.
She actually talked about this issue more than once.
She is a Nightingale in the direction of Shadow Dancer, but at level 20, Shadow Dancer differentiates into two traditional routes - one is the Night Owl Blade, which is proficient in fighting, poisoning and assassination capabilities, and the other is to further strengthen the magic ability. Secret thief.
There is a divide here.
The Shadow Dancer who walks the Night Owl Blade will learn the skill of Cunning Tactics, and then turn to Deadly Assault, a skill of the same type as the Assassin.
As for the arcane thief, he will learn the arcane bloodline and enter the path of advanced shadow spells.
There is a very interesting coincidence between these two skills. Their prerequisites are exactly the same: they both require 190,000 experience to be invested in the shadow dance route, and at least 70,000 experience to be invested in the assassination route, and this is a standard The experience points that a shadow dance thief should have at level 20.
Therefore, it is said that level 20 is an important turning point for the Shadow Dance Thief.
The function of the cunning tactic is to allow the shadow dancer to count half of the perception attribute as the strength attribute when using agility-related skills - although the shadow dancer will not become 'stronger' as a result, it will be used in calculating each element. When it is a skill-like effect, it can take effect as usual.
Just like the assassin's fatal assault skill, it requires a certain strength attribute as a prerequisite. These 'false' attributes that are transformed by perception are also considered to be effective in this prerequisite.
At the same time, when calculating the multiplier damage of sneak attacks in Fatal Raid, the damage value provided by the strength attribute, these 'false' attributes transformed by perception, enjoy the bonus as usual - of course it is not perception that makes Shadow Dancer stronger. ’, but it is regarded as hitting the vital part more accurately.
Because in order to feel the shadow network, the shadow dancer's secondary attribute must be perception, but this is naturally not comparable to the assassin type, which has the main sensitivity and secondary power. However, with this skill, this invisible barrier can be be broken.
So some people say that Night Owl Blade is actually a shadow dancer who prefers assassins.
Its assassination ability is not necessarily higher than that of the assassin, but it is more flexible than the assassin. At the same time, it does not appear to be that weak compared to the Shadow Dancer's worrying melee ability. It can be said to be somewhere in between.
This is a very popular profession among the Chosen. Most Shadow Dancers will take this path after level 20 - or some Chosen are here for this profession from the beginning. of. Think about it, he is not weak in combat ability, he is handsome, and his professional name is also very mysterious.
It seems to be a natural thing for people to choose this profession.
The arcane thief, or the scientific name Shadow Nightingale, is in another direction.
In other words, this direction is the traditional direction of the true shadow dancer. It further enhances a nightingale's attainments on its shadow network. The main attributes also gradually change from the original main agility and secondary perception to half agility and half perception.
Shadow network users are exactly this profession.
The core skill of this profession is the skill 'Secret Bloodline'. Its function is actually similar to cunning tactics, except that it converts agility into perception. At the same time, the Shadow Dancer's innate spellcasting ability is further enhanced.
After learning this skill and further training in shadow magic, the shadow dancer can be said to be half a magician - a shadow magician.
However, this shadow is not the shadow of the shadow, nor does it master the non-existent dark element ability, but the shadow spell, a branch network of the wind and earth spell network, which, like other magic spells, is also under the jurisdiction of Anjina .
Therefore, similar to magicians and alchemists, Shadow Nightingale can be said to be half a believer in the God of Knowledge.
As for the ability to transform attributes, 'Cunning Tactics' and 'Secret Bloodline' are also affected by a basic rule of Etalia, that is, the same two abilities to transform attributes are strictly prohibited from overlapping with each other.
In other words, some special abilities can convert physique into strength, or agility into perception or intelligence, but at the same time, physique can be converted into intelligence and strength, or intelligence and strength can be converted into physique at the same time, or physique can be converted into intelligence. It is not allowed to be transformed into power again.
A character can have more than two attributes-converting abilities, but these two abilities must be consistent, otherwise they will mysteriously fail, and the cognitive experience you spent on learning will not be returned - because time is non-refundable.
No one knows why this is. The aborigines believe that this is a law set by the gods, but the chosen ones cannot find any reason for it and can only believe that this is an inherent law of Aitaria.
And this point determines that cunning tactics and arcane bloodline are incompatible with each other.
This is exactly why Alyssa is struggling.
Needless to say, 'Cunning Tactics' and 'Secret Bloodline' themselves are core skills, and the amount of cognitive experience required is enormous. Around level 20, a person can generally only choose one of them to learn.
Miss Nightingale looked at her dagger and whispered:
"The Night Owl Blade can be said to be a full-time scout, but the latter has some conflicts with the many spellcasters in our team."
"I thought about it, and our team seems to have no shortage of spell professionals. I was able to join this team in the first place, isn't it because we lack a qualified scout? So my original intention was to further invest in combat and assassination, and learn poison from them. There’s not much need, just learn a little bit to defend yourself.”
What the other party said makes sense.
But if it were to be that simple, Fang Yu understood that Miss Nightingale would not think about it for so long.
He waited for the other party to finish speaking before asking: "But you prefer Shadow Dancer, right?"
Alyssa was startled and looked at him in surprise.
"But..." She hesitated: "Should we put the team first..."
But Fang Yu shook his head and didn't think so.
The reason is that although there are many spellcasters in their team, there is also a special situation - that is, there are very few in the front row. To be honest, there are only two people, Big Cat Man and Luo Hao. In the future, if Tang Xin takes the direction of fighting sacrifice , maybe half of it.
Plus half a ranger, classmate Ai Xiaoxiao - but Fang Pultru didn't think that his cousin, a classmate, would stay in Aitaria for too long, so he didn't think much about it.
Although the Assassin is also in the direction of melee combat, he is not a front row that blocks one side alone. In fact, he needs to cooperate with the heavy attack front row such as the Great Swordsman, the Polearm Warrior, and the Fighter. However, these three professional teams It can be said that they are all very lacking.
But after he finished speaking, he also said:
"However, the Arcane Thief - or its scientific name is Shadow Nightingale, is not strong in frontal combat and relies heavily on terrain in a battle. This is also a long-term criticism. In fact, if you like Shadow Dancer, there is another one choose."
Alyssa was stunned.
She had actually known for a long time that Nightingale would have such a choice after level 20. After all, she came from a major. During the youth training camp of Listening to the Rain, their career mentor told them the details of their future career plans.
Later, he joined the Rain Listener's brigade, and Gubai Zhiye explained to them more than once what career choice they should make.
But she had never heard of a third way.
But she hadn't heard of it, but it didn't mean that Fang Yu didn't know about it.
To be honest, he didn't completely understand some basic knowledge about Aitaria - but it depends on which aspect. If there is some relatively common and low-end knowledge related to aborigines, he may not really know much about it.
But it happened to be some relatively top-notch knowledge about the second world, as well as some side knowledge, but he knew everything in detail. This was mainly related to the way 'R' trained him. After all, the other party was too lazy to tell him such trivial things.
It can be said that the top ten players must be mentioned, or the top ten players or first-line players. The only exception is some interesting details in the circle, because these details often come from those legendary players.
For example, the overload tactic invented by the master tactician may not be recognized by most people, but Fang Yu can see it at a glance.
The same thing happened at this time. In fact, when he saw the shadow dagger in Alyssa's hand, he remembered something.
This dagger is a token of the Shadow Brotherhood - it originally required completing a series of tasks to gain the trust of the Shadow Brotherhood before it could be obtained. The main function of this dagger is that the Brotherhood can arrange a mentor to choose to learn the Brotherhood’s two inherited skills——
Cunning tactics and arcane blood.
But since the influx of chosen ones, like many other things, this thing has changed. Some people specifically approach the Shadow Brotherhood. After obtaining the mission, they use points to exchange for the dagger and then resell it to others.
Most of the people who specialize in this industry are bounty hunters, and they call this process 'refining reputation' - an ancient behavior in online games.
Since there were not many people doing this business at the beginning, the price of the shadow daggers that were wandering outside was very high. However, there were still many large guilds who did not care about this little money and chose to buy them directly from the black market in order to save time.
As time went by, after people tasted the benefits, 'faming reputation' gradually became a complete and huge industrial chain, and it was not limited to the Brotherhood of Shadows.
However, the aborigines who control the Shadow Brotherhood are not fools, so they simply let go of the restrictions on the Shadow Dagger and directly turned this ancient 'rules' of the Brotherhood into a business. As long as they give money, everyone can Daggers can be purchased.
It is equivalent to selling skills to external parties.
Unexpectedly, as a result, not only did the Brotherhood not decline as a few people feared - because its unique skills were lost to the outside world. Instead, it grew and became the premier thieves' fraternity in Korin-Ithurion.
This is also making people laugh or cry. I wonder if it is one of the changes brought about by people on earth.
But the dagger in Alyssa's hand was not bought - because they had to build the Seven Seas Traveler, they did not have the funds. She actually got this thing by doing the task. Of course, other people also helped a lot in the process. busy.
And Fang Plover happened to know that he had obtained the dagger through the ancient 'motto' and by acting according to the rules of the brotherhood. Generally, there are some differences between daggers bought outside, and the brotherhood has learned that this thing cannot be transferred.
Of course, as such, it also represents some special benefits.
Speaking of this matter, Fang Yu couldn't help but think of something that 'R' had said to him before he came to Aitalia.
Regarding the owner of this story, it is said that he is also a legendary player, and the opponent is also a Ten King, or a Nightingale Ten King. It's just that compared to their time, it was a relatively ancient story.
He was about to speak when he saw the door of the utility room pushed open, and then Sylvide and Siesta walked out of it.
When the noble daughter saw him, she couldn't help but smile and said, "You're back? But I heard that the captain made some discoveries at the Craftsmen's Association before."
Fang Yu was startled, then nodded.
Before he left the Tansnir Craftsmen Guild and returned here, he had already informed others about the clues he had found in the Craftsmen Guild. But he didn't go into details in the communication crystal. He only briefly mentioned what the mystics were searching for, which might have something to do with those slave traders.
"Actually, I happen to have some things here, which may be related to it," Sylvide replied, but she looked at the two people in front of her: "But does the captain have anything to say to Miss Alisa? I'm here Actually, there’s no rush, we can wait until you finish talking first.”
Fang Yu replied matter-of-factly: "Ah, I'm discussing career matters with Alyssa -"
"No need," Alyssa glanced at him with a smile and interrupted: "It's not an important thing. After all, you can't learn the corresponding skills right away. The current things are more important."
As she said this, she winked at Fang Plover in a funny way.
That gossipy look seems to be saying, if, Captain, you really follow what the Ship Officer says, you will be doomed.
Fang Yu looked at the two of them confused.
