The Truth of Magic

Chapter 567: The level of the camp, the miserable situation in the world

If an ordinary person said this, everyone would definitely scoff on the spot.

But Zhao Xu's voice at this moment carried a certain mellow power and exuded a strange charm, which directly penetrated into the hearts of everyone.

Not to mention that the "Mage" himself is still famous and powerful. For more than half a year, he still left a deep impression in the hearts of players.

Although the player's mage and Arthur's local mage are two different concepts in terms of strength.

However, with the emergence of players' three-ring spells, this first "mass destruction spell" and "aerial three-dimensional strike method" established the reputation of three-ring spells.

No matter how Zhao Xu showed off his strength, he still saw only a few.

Only when the base of three-ring mage reaches a new level can the mage profession be truly no longer stigmatized.

The warrior Zhang Yaoyu couldn't help but shake his head to wake himself up a bit, and realized that it really didn't seem like a magical power, but for some reason, he sincerely liked this mysterious mage.

Perhaps this is the charm of language, which can easily make people believe in each other.

"Are you also a player and know them?"

The warrior player Zhang Yaoyu, who easily regained his weapon, was in a good mood and smiled cheerfully at Zhao Xu.

"I came here on request." Zhao Xu was half-truth and half-false

At this time, the warrior player’s girlfriend couldn’t help but pull her boyfriend’s sleeve armor, “Which player do you think is in such a cold state, and at this time, everyone is busy looking for their relatives, who has time to waste so much time. "

For some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable with her boyfriend asking about him.

There was a trace of astonishment in the warrior player's eyes, and then he smiled bitterly, "Hey, I hope you mages can find a way to save Shitou. At first, everyone was thinking about optimizing combat power and didn't think too much about it."

"Who would have thought that when the initial game attributes became real physical attributes, it would have such serious consequences."

Speaking of which, the soldier Zhang Yaoyu couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't go to extremes at that time. At any rate, he still held a moderate idea and gave two talent points to intelligence, maintaining this average IQ.

Zhao Xu, on the other hand, noticed that the soldier's girlfriend paid attention to his face several times, as if she wanted to see the mystery from his expression.

But Zhao Xu, who was determined to recruit mage seeds, did his homework as solid as a rock.

In order to avoid being slapped in the face due to all kinds of inexplicable hatred, Zhao Xu went out after making sufficient preparations.

Not to mention the various charm control spells with limited duration, he reviewed them again and knew them so well that in order to adapt to this critical mission, he also used the "Book of All Laws" to select higher level charm control spells. The purpose of tying a spell is to have the final say.

In addition to the unreasonable external effects of spells.

Just like the scholars who used to persuade the kings of various countries in history, the most important thing they relied on was their words and their own magnanimity.

These are reflected in Arthur through the diplomatic skills of "Observation of Moments", "Bluffing", "Negotiation", "Intimidation" and even "Performance (xx)". These skills are also linked to the "Charm Adjustment Value".

As players actually travel through time, the skills they originally invested in instantly become "real materials" that remain fresh for a long time.

Even if you are a stammerer who can't speak well, with the blessing of high skill points and good charm, it is not difficult to become an eloquent "orator".

Therefore, a large number of players have experienced "makeover" level changes in the game.

This is also the reason why players can successfully reach the top in Arthur.

Because of their attributes, with the blessing of 28 talent points or even 32 talent points, they are already a "heroic start", the kind of one-in-a-thousand.

For example, Zhao Xu, after just casting a second-level spell "Cunning Eyes" with a "heaven-level" duration, he acquired the talents of the dwarfs of Zilargo, and instantly mastered skills such as bluffing, negotiation, intimidation, and observation of words. Gain level 10 insight bonus.

Level 10 is already the difference between ordinary people and experts.

At the same time, Zhao Xu also has the four-ring arcane spell "Dragon Words" hanging on his body. This spell makes his voice deep and powerful, making the listener feel majestic, powerful and profound.

To quantify this, Zhao Xu will gain a +10 enhancement bonus on bluffing, negotiation, and intimidation.

At this time, level 4 charm was added. Even if Zhao Xu had not invested any points in diplomatic skills, that is, he had no basis for training, these diplomatic skills could easily reach level 24.

To say he is a social master is an understatement.

Slowly, as the three of them chatted and went deep into the camp, many civilian travelers looked towards them, but most of them glanced at them and then turned back to continue their own affairs.

Some make simple tools from dead wood and branches they picked up, while others listen intently to the teachings of the forerunners.

"The progress is quite fast, and we have actually started teaching common language." Zhao Xu said with emotion.

"Yes." The warrior player smiled bitterly, "I have been learning English since I was a child. I didn't expect to graduate when I grew up. As a result, I encountered time travel, and then I had to learn Arthur's common language. Fortunately, the system gave him the common language at the beginning. Me. It would be miserable if we were barbarians. They were born illiterate. If they didn’t invest skill points in language initially, they would have to learn literacy again now.”

"The 'Common Language' itself has simple grammar and simple and direct words. It can communicate with most of Arthur's races without any waste." Zhao Xu comforted. He saw the embarrassment on the soldier's girlfriend's face. Obviously, it was also her. problems to face.

Now when we learn a language, we no longer just look at the grammar and vocabulary first and wait for the skill points to be converted.

And if you really don’t want to learn, the system will automatically translate it without affecting it at all.

Only some hardcore game players have mastered this language and can reproduce it on earth.

"However, it is more convenient for mages." The warrior Zhang Yaoyu shook his head as he said, "When we enter the early stage of the game, we can choose how many languages to master based on our intelligence. Naturally, the mages with the highest intelligence take advantage."

For a warrior with 10 intelligence like Zhang Yaoyu, he naturally only has one common language.

"The first-level arcane spell of proficiency in language and the third-level arcane spell of tongues can overcome the language barrier." Zhao Xu explained, "This is where the mage really takes advantage. But there are also magic items in this area. You really If you have such a need, you can choose to purchase it.”

"How can I afford magic equipment? I didn't have a lot of krypton gold at that time, and I can't even think about it now." Zhang Yaoyu became lonely as he spoke, "The Chamber of Commerce was happy at first, and it accumulated a lot of wealth, and it must have exploded. "

"Not necessarily." Zhao Xu said.

He thought to himself that the wealth left in other forces might not be able to be recovered.

Even someone like him, a lord who is also the president of the local mages association, will be deprived of food by the small town forces because he disappeared for a month. He doesn't believe that there is no evil behind it.

It's just that Zhao Xu can't spare the time to deal with the masterminds right now.

For players from other forces, the losses to their fixed property will definitely be more serious. It's possible that all of them were ordered to be expropriated by a law.

Then Zhao Xu carefully observed the camp and found that someone had organized a group of children. While receiving education from the original earth, they were also popularizing Arthur's language education, making preparations for both.

"Here we are, right here."

After a while, soldier Zhang Yaoyu led Zhao Xu to a rather deserted place in the camp.

Many weak patients and lonely elderly people were lying on the ground groaning as if they were about to die.

There were also some adult men with unkempt hair and dull eyes, looking forward with haggard eyes, mumbling words and repeating them.

On this earth, wives and children are scattered, and homeless drunkards and gamblers are nothing more than that.

Compared with the situation of the camp travelers that Zhao Xu first saw, as time passed, the impact of lack of food and negative energy erosion began to gradually exert its influence over time.

Earth travelers are like being owed loan sharks. Their monthly income is barely even the interest, and they are constantly circling in a bottomless pit.

Even though Zhao Xu was mentally prepared, looking at the miserable condition of these people, he still couldn't bear it, because he couldn't see the slightest hope on their faces.

"If you are a player, no matter how serious your illness was before, you have almost recovered by Arthur. There was a barbarian in the camp next door who had his legs amputated in a car accident. However, after traveling through time, he transformed into the body in the game. He was walking like flying on the spot. He was there in the morning. Morning jog outside.”

"But these people who were sick on earth themselves relied on divine power to reshape their bodies after time travel, and their original diseases were alleviated a lot. But under the influence of this cursed land, they were originally low-level because of their illness. My physical condition is even more unbearable, and I have become half-dead in just one day, and the symptoms that were alleviated suddenly relapsed."

"This kind of loss that was thought to have been restored, but suddenly found to be a mirror image, has directly shattered the hearts of many people who gritted their teeth to treat the disease, not to mention that there are no medical conditions on earth at all."

"No, or in other words, everyone is not qualified to enjoy it."

As he spoke, soldier Zhang Yaoyu pointed to another area of the camp where smoke was curling up.

It can be said that it is not easy to be able to travel back and start cooking in one day. It can be regarded as a wealthy family in the wilderness.

"Like the big priest, although he only has a second ring, he has a three-ring 'disease removal' scroll on his body. I don't know how many people knelt down in front of his house and begged. There were cries everywhere, and all kinds of things were missing. All the connections were dug out, trying to find channels to talk to, and beg for such a scroll."

"But all this is easier said than done. All the wealth on earth will be of some use if it can bring Arthur. But now the only thing everyone has is the linen clothes on their body. There is no way to change it."

"Soon, except for players who own equipment and extra clothing, most of the earth travelers will have to wear rags."

As he spoke, the soldier Zhang Yaoyu sighed, "According to what I heard during the day when I went out to inquire, the current first-class camp is near Yanan. They have their backs against big trees to enjoy the shade, and no one dares to provoke them. What do you mean? It’s not too much, even traveling through time requires that one comes from a capital city and has a registered residence in the capital.”

"The second level is aided by the priests and paladins sent by the temple. These priests don't want anything, they just help the common people and develop some believers. It can be said that they have a strong conscience. The third level Wait, even if those other forces send aid, although it is not obvious, they all have a purpose or a plan. It doesn't matter, everyone on the earth is also a leek. If you want to cut it, at least you know how to feed it. "

"The fourth level is a camp like us that has nothing, but fortunately because there are many young people, so there are many players. It can be considered that the strength is not bad. At least we have been spreading Arthur's knowledge quickly, and we have enough manpower. Only then can I brag with you here, and I can also have enough manpower to arrange for players to hunt and replenish food resources. Even relying on the resources and items carried by the players themselves, they can still last for a few days, waiting for help to arrive, and it will rise to two Wait for third-class citizens.”

"The fifth level is those camps with few players. It may be difficult to protect themselves, but their players are also happy. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are treated like emperors. As long as they find a few confidants, they will not be tricked by others. Now, their understanding of Arthur is their greatest asset at the moment. There are many players in our camp, and I just went to get the weapons. Bao Tong’s family has a huge business on earth, and they have a lot of hands and eyes, so they don’t dare to snatch it openly. Coming back has already shown that players are in everyone's hearts at the moment. Things are rare and valuable, and the status of players in these fifth-level camps will only become more exaggerated."

"The lowest level are the camps of national forces that have not opened servers before, or have few players at all. The average strength of players in these places is only two or three levels, and the level is very low. Basically, they can only rely on their own luck. They survived because the whole Arthur looked at them with a black eye."

Soldier Zhang Yaoyu divided the levels of the current camp in a few words. Although it was not as detailed as the discussion by Zhao Xu, Wang Ningwei and others, it was still a few points.

Being able to do this in just one day with limited communication means shows that in this camp, which the other party calls a fourth-class camp, smart people have slowed down and participated in the decision-making.

In other words, the smart people among the players have already occupied key positions, so their opinions can spread instantly.

"No, the orc warrior you are looking for is right there." As he spoke, Zhang Yaoyu pointed to a rather thick winter tree.

An orc had a large iron chain around his waist and was wrapped around a tree trunk. He had a ferocious expression on his face and kept turning his head to look around, as if he was about to pounce on food like a wild beast.

As for the patients who were also sick and dying around them, even if they were not far from death, the beasts stayed far away as if to avoid the god of plague, and did not dare to get close at all, even if the ground under the tree was much flatter.

Not far from the orc, a seven or eight-year-old human girl was crying and looking at him with a sad face.
