Player 'Xufeng' is level 12 and has saved some skill points for his second specialization.
His first specialization was the Barbarian. Now that he had decided to leave for the front line, he no longer hesitated and went directly to the skill wall to choose the Soldier profession.
The second specialization selection was successful. Congratulations on your job change to Formation Breaker!
"The Breaker... Haha, what a good name! Let me be the one who breaks the formation on the front line! The combination of the two major melee professions... will definitely reach the pinnacle of melee combat!"
I raised the soldier's specialization slot to level 5, and learned four skills: military literacy, shield training, rhythm strike, and indomitable will, each at level 1.
Then he took out all the supplies in his residence, stuffed the usable ones into his bag, sold the unused ones directly to the store, and then replenished a large amount of life potions and energy potions.
"Huh? There are so many cans that we didn't have yesterday. What a coincidence. They're not expensive, 10 iron coins a bottle. I have to have some."
After a long journey, he certainly can't just eat beans, he needs something else to balance it out.
Long-term monotonous diet structure will cause negative buffs to the body. Many extremely frugal players have experienced this debuff, so you must pay attention to nutritional balance.
He bought a batch of canned food and other useful supplies, and spent all the iron coins he had.
This time, he never came back!
Any sudden death will cause serious damage to the vitality.
"The next step is... to use this to get a horse from the lord."
He bought so many supplies, he definitely couldn't carry them all by himself, so he had to have a mount.
Fortunately, he still had a good thing hidden that he hadn't taken out.
I had been planning to use it to exchange for some experience from the lord when the levels were similar, and then surpass the top team.
Unfortunately... the people from the Peak Team have always been 2 levels lower than him, the gap is too big.
10 minutes later.
Lao Zhao led a horse over, Xufeng packed his luggage, and rode away, heading towards the northeast of Colossus City.
"When I come back, I will become the brightest star."
Natural disaster base.
Cheng Shaofeng looked at Xufeng who was leaving, with a kind of expectation in his eyes, just like he was looking at those players who had left the base before.
"Old players have adapted to the battles and life in this world and have acquired the ability to survive on their own. It's time to spread hope to further places."
Three days ago, he announced the energy crisis in the base and notified players that the price of decomposing loot would increase, encouraging players to go out to look for crystal energy. Many players have already walked out of Huo Town and left the protection of the base.
Although some players have died and come back in the past few days, most of the players... are exploring the outside world. They were originally excellent players selected from the vast number of netizens.
You may not be able to tell when they are together normally, but actually... each of them has his or her own way.
Cheng Shaofeng peeked into their internal beta QQ group every day to learn about the dynamics of the players who left the Scourge Base and obtained more information.
The appearance of this world was also unfolding bit by bit before Cheng Shaofeng's eyes.
"Let's set a small goal first, and deploy communication base stations in all areas where players are active."
It was an impossible idea before, but now with the supply of basic materials and electronic components from Red City, he has the foundation for expansion. Currently, he is asking Zero to build more communication base stations to gradually cover Colossus City.
Just as he was about to continue spying on the players' discussion on the official forum, Forgiveness Hat walked over.
"My Lord, I have something I want to talk to you about."
"Hmm? What's up?"
"I want to open a meat shop in Colossus City... Is that okay with you?"
Cheng Shaofeng: "Oh? Why do you suddenly have such an idea?"
The Forgiveness Hat had already figured out how to tell the lord, which was... to tell the truth.
Although others say that there are problems with the Lord's code, which cannot be fixed even after multiple repairs, as an old player who has been following the Lord, he has stayed in the base for a long time, and he feels that... the Lord is still very awake if he doesn't sleep.
"My Lord, I think... the diet of people in this world is too poor. There is a lot of room for development in the meat we make. There is no shortage of rich people in Colossus City. We can open a store there to earn their money, and then buy supplies from Colossus City and bring them back to the Scourge Base."
"Hmm... Opening a shop and doing business? That's interesting. Maybe you should really compete with them. Then, when you go to Colossus City, find the dealer and touch him with your smart watch. Then he will know that you are mine and he will help you open a shop..."
"Thank you, Lord!"
"By the way! Don't go with soldiers who are inquisitors!"
"clear!"
Forgive Hat was overjoyed and immediately went back to prepare for opening a branch.
Cheng Shaofeng nodded and said, "If there are players who can stay in Colossus City permanently, they can get a lot of information. Once my communication base station is deployed in Colossus City, we can communicate with them in real time."
Through Tuoba Liang's experience, Cheng Shaofeng knew... Colossus City was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. The Inquisitors had been passed down here for many years, and there had been top-level fourth-order evolvers. That was a role where one person could take off and all the Inquisitors would benefit. However, it was still destroyed by the city lord and the Crusaders.
There are powerful forces behind them.
This is just a branch of the Christian Church. The people in the Episcopal Church are more powerful, and... What realm is Dregg who can influence Christians around the world with his will
Cheng Shaofeng usually doesn't dare to think about it... that kind of power is too terrifying.
It was far beyond what he could understand at this stage.
"There are also names like 'Chaos Cultists' and 'Chaos Priests' in the maple forest east of the base... What do they believe in?"
Cheng Shaofeng used to be a staunch atheist, but with the appearance of things like "shrine ruins" in this world, it is hard to say whether there are gods or not.
“Huh~~”
He exhaled twice, and the breath condensed into white mist in the air.
I glanced at the thermometer: minus 15 degrees.
Even with the strength of a second-level evolver, he still had to wear thick winter clothes.
"Let's improve our strength first, and then we can wipe out all those chaotic mutants in the spring."
All fear comes from insufficient firepower.
“It’s time for me to improve myself!”
Cheng Shaofeng has been very busy today and was always interrupted by various things. Now he has finally calmed down and can use the crystals sent by the dealer to improve himself.
"Zero, start improving your strength!"
"As you wish."
Cheng Shaofeng's body emitted a strong suction force, sucking the crystal energy at his hand into his body and into his brain. After being purified by the Calamity Base, all of it entered his body, rapidly increasing his strength.
Consume 6000 units of crystals, increase strength to level 21, improve overall physical fitness, and gain 1 skill point and 1 attribute point.
Consume 7000 crystals and increase your strength to level 22...
Consume...
The 60,000 crystal stones brought by the dealer were slowly decreasing, and Cheng Shaofeng was also immersed in the feeling of increased strength.
Time goes by...
There are already multiple branches of discussion on the official website.
Three arguments have emerged in the analysis of general skills.
The fox demon insists on the theory that "everything is useful".
I firmly believe that every skill has room to play its own role, it just depends on its applicability and your own compatibility. So after you reach level 10, if you do not plan to change your existing profession and want to wait for the new professions to be updated later in the game, you can choose some of the general skills to use in combination.
'Da Ni Xiao Ji Ji' proposed the "Skill Limit Theory".
Any skill that reaches its limit is very powerful. Even the inconspicuous Rock Spikes and Ignition Points among the general skills, when they are pushed to the maximum level and matched with the corresponding bonus equipment, will build up a powerful combat power.
'I once made a pledge with the gods' is completely opposite to the other two, he believes that 'the theory of universal skills is rubbish'.
"You all only see the present, but I am looking at it from the perspective of the next 20, 30, or even 100 levels..."
"First of all, skill points are a fixed number, right? Every level up adds 3 points, and every 10 levels up gives a few more points. So at the same level, everyone has the same skill points, but the skill points required for the game's skills are far more than the skill points we can get. It's impossible to max out every skill, so we are required to... use every skill point efficiently. I think everyone can reach a consensus on this, right?"
After most of the others had agreed, he continued:
"Look carefully at the general skills. It seems that everyone has more choices, but... Currently, the maximum level of each general skill is 10! This proves that this is the upper limit of this skill! And what are the levels of our main output and main summoning skills? Level 16! This is the first major drawback of general skills: low upper limit!"
"The second biggest drawback: no expanded skills! The game officials have already given a clear hint that we can record skills from any extraordinary person, as long as they cooperate, then the problem comes... everyone's skills are strong or weak, and the strength of common skills is very uneven! And the most important thing is... there is no system! There are no expanded skills at present! There is a high probability that there will be no expanded skills in the future!"
"You can't expect the person that a fangirl picked up from the street to learn new skills in a few years, and then come running over to help us record and expand the skills, right? This is unrealistic!"
"Third, using skill points on general skills will waste our time to strive for higher specialization in this profession! Everyone knows that the more powerful the skills, the more specialization points they require. How awesome is the Inquisitor's Ice Barrage? It can penetrate, freeze, and deal damage. It requires 20 specialization points to learn. If you spend it on general skills, where will you find skill points to add to your specialization slots? Then when the advanced skills that require 30 specialization points come out, what will you do? Use a level 10 Iron Sand Palm to fight against others???"
"This is the third drawback, which affects the development of the main profession! I think it is better to use these skill points to upgrade the professional expertise slot, which can not only increase a large number of attribute values, but also prepare for future advanced skills."
"That's my opinion. All the common skills nowadays are rubbish! No one should choose them!"
Compared with the theories of the fox demon and Daji, the theory of "having signed a pledge with the gods" immediately gained recognition from a large number of people.
The little mushroom picking girl: "Yeah! You're right, brother! I support you! By the way... are you a beta player or a pre-order player like me? It feels like you have entered the game and played it yourself."
Fengyun Baijian: "MD! This strategy guide makes my blood boil. I wish I could go in and equip myself with a set!"
Wumiaowang: "Uh... I don't think this game is any good. It's not as good as Genshin Impact."
I once made a promise with the gods: "Grass! Plain!"
Facing the words of "god", the fox demon shook his head calmly:
"You see the future, and I... see what's ahead of me."
"Maybe I won't be able to match the strongest BD, but I will always match the strongest BD under the current time and conditions. This is what makes us ahead of others. Maybe in the future... skill points can be obtained at will? No one can say for sure."
Yaohu has always been the one providing theoretical guidance for the Peak Team, and the other team members also support his analysis.
Fox: "Old White needs to take the damage and deal damage. Whirlwind's attack is enough, but it consumes too much mana to upgrade it. Before you have more energy, it is important to improve your tankiness and stand firm. Although the Barbarian skin increases the percentage of life, physical resistance and radiation resistance, we currently do not have the need to deal with radiation monsters, so one attribute is wasted. In addition, when the base life value of the main body is too small, the percentage life bonus is very average. I have calculated it, and it is not as good as the Diamond Body in the general skill."
"This skill can increase health, life recovery, strength, and physical resistance. All four are what you need. Max it out."
Lao Bai: "Okay! I have 6 skill points, let's add them and see."
After he added it, the attributes skyrocketed.
King Kong Body
Improve overall physical strength
Passive Skills
6/10
Health +170
Health regeneration per second +20
Strength +12
Physical resistance +7%
Walter White: "These 12 points of strength give me 240 health points, 6/second health regeneration speed, 48 defense ability and more physical strength. I feel that I can last longer."
Fox: "Level 6 Diamond Body adds 410 health points, 26/second health regeneration speed, 48 defense ability, and 7% physical resistance. It is more durable."
Lao Bai: "Wait, that's not right... I also have the 11% health bonus from the level 5 Barbarian skin and the 5% health bonus from the Order Shrine. Zooming in, my upper limit of health has increased by 476 points. I can clearly feel that my skin and my bones have become stronger."
The values of King Kong's body are just for reference, but they are reflected in Walter White's body as solid skin toughness, muscle strength and bone strength.
The fox nodded: "The front line is more solid... I will learn the rattan binding and try this control skill, and then decide whether to upgrade it."
"Except for the two of us, the others don't need universal skills for now. The impact system of the small dog giant still requires a lot of skill points. Lin Tang needs to upgrade Meg's Ice Rune and Expanded Fierce. Xiong Da must upgrade the new skills of the undead, Summon Plague Demon and Will of the Tomb. Lao Ao should max out the Blood of Dregg, the group healer, to reach level 10. Then he can max out the Expanded Weakening of Curse of Weakness to reduce the enemy's resistance."
"OK!"
"Fox is awesome!"
“We have a bright future!”
The arrangements for the peak team were completed in no time.
At this moment, Yaohu seemed to have returned to the days when he was the captain...
Compared with the theoretical debates among various schools, the Firepower Team doesn't care.
Most of them have their own main output skills and specialize in a single skill.
For example, the Bone Spear of the Undead, the Evil Eye of the Mysterious Dregg, and the Storm Box of the Inquisitor, these skills can always suppress from a distance and highlight a long-range turret.
Their team included a few new players who had saved up skill points, and they had been using the three new artifacts to fight monsters, so there was plenty of room for experimentation.
The general skills of Ignite and Fire Spell are perfect matches, so I just asked a teammate who likes playing with fire, Mai Shiranui, to focus on these two skills.
After learning, a method of using energy to start fire from a long distance appeared in her mind, and a mysterious spell circled in her mind and continued to rotate.
"Ah~ It's so hot."
She twisted and turned, and she actually felt her real body sweating.
"Damn it! I'm going to complain to the heating company tomorrow. They keep the floor heating so hot every day. It's winter and I'm sweating even when I'm wearing autumn clothes."
At this time, several players from the south looked at Mai Shiranui with resentment.
"Can you give me half of the calories you don't want?"
"Wow~ Why is there no floor heating in the south? The floor of my house is as cold as an ice rune..."
At the same time, the mysterious turret player in the team, "Is that Li Bai?" was ecstatic!
His main output skill, Dregg's Evil Eye, has an expanded skill, Blood Explosion, which will further enhance the power of the Evil Eye and cause a small-scale explosion aoe, turning it from a single spell mechanism wall into a howitzer!
The mysterious profession's output skills are epically enhanced!
But apart from these special requirements, most players still agree that the theory of "having made a pledge with the gods" is useless and decide to concentrate on improving the specialization of this profession.
As all the major players withdrew from the discussion, the discussion feast about BD gradually subsided.
However, all the new skills have been added to the players’ self-made “Apocalypse OL Custom Construction” website.
Countless cloud players are still happy to configure their own cloud configurations on the website.
... ...
the next day.
Bang!
Consumes 12,000 units of crystals, increases strength to level 27, improves overall physical fitness, and gains 1 skill point and 1 attribute point.
All the crystals you specified have been consumed. Do you want to use other stored crystals to continue upgrading
Cheng Shaofeng came out of the state where the energy was gradually expanding and running. His clothes were already soaked, and the sensation all over his body was elevated to a higher level.
He knew that this was the perception gap brought about by seven consecutive level increases and overall improvement in attributes.
Cheng Shaofeng turned his head and looked at his right hand. What was originally a group of crystals with a total of 63,000 units of crystal energy was completely turned into powder, and all the energy was absorbed by him.
"Only up to level 27? Sigh, the energy required to level up is increasing."
He still had two large crystals. One was the thunder crystal he received as a reward from Feisha City, with 30,000 crystal energies remaining. The other was the mixed crystal he had purchased from the Colossus City Chamber of Commerce, with 20,000 crystal energies still in it.
A total of 50,000.
Yesterday, thanks to the efforts of the players, the number of scorched people killed in Red City increased, and the fire crystals decomposed were enough to meet the daily maintenance of the base, and there was even some surplus.
Theoretically, he could use the 50,000 to improve himself.
"According to previous experience... Level 28 requires 13,000, and level 29 requires 14,000. And from level 29 to level 30, this leap in advancement will definitely require extremely high energy. Is this 50,000 enough? Oh! Let's upgrade first and see."
With the help of Zero, Cheng Shaofeng chose to continue improving himself.
After 4 hours, successfully reached level 29.
The bones all over the body made a crackling sound, and the energy was extremely full, giving a feeling of being close to evolution.
Cheng Shaofeng took a look at the reference data provided by the base and sighed.
"Ah, as expected... It takes 50,000 crystal energy to upgrade to the third level evolver, and players have to collect more."
After this growth, Cheng Shaofeng gained 9 attribute points and 9 skill points.
In order to become a pentagonal warrior, attribute points are evenly distributed to the three attributes, and all skill points are added to the ice barrage with the highest expertise requirement, raising the ice barrage to the maximum level 10.
Greatly increases damage and freezes enemies for longer!
He made this bullet to enhance the output of all players in the base.
These bullets also become the key output means for players to conquer the Red City. Long Yi from the special forces team keeps opening doors one after another and annihilates the decomposed charred people one by one.
Cheng Shaofeng summoned another shadow guard and replaced the two aura skills of Battle Flag and Death Armor with fire bombs and ice bombs, letting the shadow guard take Cheng Dafu's clone to share experience with players while manufacturing the two types of bullets on the spot.
Transform into a mobile frontline ammunition replenishment station!
Anyway, he is following the top team, so his aura is full.
Cheng Shaofeng looked at the base which had become somewhat empty due to the capture of Red City, as well as the mountains of electronic components, the remaining 23,000 energies, and countless biological raw materials.
"All these people are going to attack the Red City, so the Void Spirits can't be left unattended. The experience points are right here, don't waste them."
"It seems like it's time to recruit some new players."
"I saw a few good cloud players on the official website..."
He glanced at the large workshop-like building that was half-built in the center of the Scourge Base.
"After the All-Things Synthesizer is built, we will also need a group of gathering players to find more materials to try to synthesize something."
"Then... come on, my new players!"
