Xu Mu returned home with all kinds of generous rewards, to the astonishment of everyone.
I found an empty corner and quickly counted what I had obtained so far.
After reaching level 15, there are 14 more skill points.
The equipment also underwent a major innovation.
The blue breastplate increases defense by nearly 50 points.
The purple leg armor provides 100+ defense
If he meets a guy of Clay's level again now, even if he stands still and lets him hit him, he probably won't be able to break his defense.
In addition, the purple boots are also a set. After collecting a set, it will trigger the effect of the Divine Servant Set, which will increase the warrior skill damage by an additional 20%.
Xu Mu knew where the other four pieces of the God Servant Set (chest armor, gauntlets, helmet, and bottoms) were hidden.
You need to accept other pre-quests for the side quests on Kaia Island and complete them one by one.
However, for Xu Mu, such benefits are not great.
Other players can basically graduate by collecting the Divine Servant Set and doing a little crafting, and can wear it from the beginning to the end of the dungeon.
Destroying the fortress is not a problem at all.
But Xu Mu knew a better way to get equipment, instead of spending time collecting the Divine Servant Set.
It’s better to go out to the new map and try the real set of gods.
Those gold-quality suits are extremely powerful armor throughout the entire dungeon.
He looked at the gold coins in his backpack.
He was originally penniless, but after completing several important tasks in succession , his wealth has skyrocketed to nearly 8,000 gold.
At this point in time, it is considered a good time for each person to be able to spare 500 gold to buy themselves a piece of blue equipment.
8,000 gold is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
Xu Mu went straight to the local blacksmith shop and generously bought several pieces of blue clothing from the blacksmith.
He bought all the defensive parts he had and spent all his money to forge all the equipment to level 15.
There are equipment restrictions in "Assassin's Creed" copies. The level of equipment that players can create will follow the player level and cannot exceed this upper limit.
Even so, when you take a quick look at your own attributes.
They have all grown into BOSS-level characters.
[Player: A]
[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey instance attributes]
[Attack: 117~151]
[Defense: 376]
【Life: 8396】
[Additional bonus: 50% bonus to the camp, 200% bonus to the assassin mentor position]
[Skill: Shadow Assassin]
[Equipment: Clay's Fine Steel Dagger LV15 (Purple), Kaeya's Servant's Greaves LV15 (Purple), Eagle Horn Bow LV15 (Blue), Mercenary's Exquisite Breastplate LV15 (Blue), Mercenary's Exquisite Helmet...]
…
The maximum critical damage of 150 points, combined with the triple assassination bonus, as well as the camp and position bonus, and after activating the Shadow Assassin's 40% damage increase.
A successful sneak attack can cause nearly 2000 points of damage!
Looking at the 14 skill points in his hand, Xu Mu did not choose to max out all the assassin skills at once.
The Warrior class is just as important as the Hunter class.
The first is the warrior soul skill, Spartan Kick.
This skill is not that powerful. When fully maxed out, it only deals 200% of the warrior's damage.
But its characteristic is that it can kick the enemy away.
If the battle takes place on the coast or near a cliff, no matter how much health the opponent has, one kick will kill him instantly.
The difference between level 1 and level 3 is that in addition to increasing the damage value, you can also kick farther.
Must be filled to capacity!
Then comes the Bull Charge, which sprints forward a certain distance and causes 250% warrior damage to the target.
Xu Mu is used to upgrading it to level one and using it as a medium-range displacement skill.
This will allow you to quickly kill the enemy group.
Next comes the highlight of the warrior category - the Ring of Chaos.
It is similar to the war trampling in many games in previous lives.
A stomp of the ground sends out a concussive shockwave, stunning all enemies within a three-meter radius and dealing 150% of the warrior's damage.
After obtaining the corresponding warrior suit in the middle and late stages, increase the warrior damage buff.
Find a crowded place and take a step down. Only those who have stepped on it will know how painful it is.
Without hesitation, he maxed it out again. (The maximum skill level is level 3, which consumes 3 skill points)
At full level, it can stun enemies within a 10-meter radius and cause 250% warrior damage.
After consuming 7 skill points in one breath, Xu Mu quickly activated the hunter's signature life-saving skill - the sixth sense.
This skill is a passive skill and is automatically triggered when encountering an enemy.
The effect is that when discovered by the enemy, the passage of time will slow down, and arrows locked onto the enemy will inevitably hit.
It is equivalent to a small padlock. If you click on all of them, you can buy yourself 8 seconds of adjustment time.
There were 4 skill points left, and Xu Mu put them all on the assassin system.
Level 1 rapid assassination.
In his previous life, he was nicknamed Flying Thunder God by a group of players.
Lock onto a distant enemy, throw the weapon in your hand, and then teleport behind the enemy to assassinate him.
Life is incomplete without the Flying Thunder God Assassin.
Xu Mu invested the last three skill points into the core skill of the assassin system - Heroic Strike.
It can be said that Heroic Strike is the most core skill throughout the entire Assassin's Creed.
Its damage calculation priority is above all other damage.
Simply put, after the player stacks countless buffs with this attack, if it can reach 2000 damage.
Then after launching a heroic attack, the total amount of damage can be directly increased!
The maximum level can be increased by an additional double!
The damage is quite exaggerated.
The most imba thing is that its effect can also work on Isu artifacts!
Of course, only Xu Mu knew about this hidden little mechanism.
Because the skill introduction simply gives a hint like 'cause 100% assassin damage'.
Compared to others, the bonus is often 200% or 300%.
This 100% effect seems insignificant.
When Xu Mu was playing in his previous life, there was a period of time when he didn't click on [Heroic Strike] at all.
It was not until he tried to upgrade to level one and discovered that the damage had undergone an astonishing qualitative change that he realized the incredible power of this skill.
And in this copy where every second counts and your chance of success is at stake.
Xu Mu estimated that most players might not choose this skill.
After all, a copy is not a game, and no one has the time to try and make mistakes. You will definitely choose what looks strong.
No one would risk his life to do such a stupid thing as "making light of the problem wherever it is".
"This can be considered as a side-effect of the strategy improving me." After thinking to himself, Xu Mu did not hesitate and decisively maxed out [Heroic Strike].
It also consumed his last 3 skill points.
"Tsk, skill points are still too scarce." Looking at the large number of dim and unlit skills, Xu Mu smacked his lips and sighed.
"Next, it's time to go out to the next new map." After sorting out everything, Xu Mu began to plan for the next stage.
After submitting a series of tasks just now, Xu Mu roughly figured out the direction.
Although the player does not play the role of the protagonist Sister Ka in the game, the important side quest is still to follow in Sister Ka's footsteps to complete the things that should have been done by her.
"That is to say, important large-scale tasks will be divided into three major directions."
"The first one is to help Sister Ka find her biological mother and father."
"The second is to clean up the Cult of Order and take back human political control from the hands of theocracy."
"The third one is to search for artifacts, and then find Atlantis, the underwater palace that exists in myths and legends, and unlock various artifact treasures."
Looking at the core of the entire "Assassin's Creed", if you look at it from the player's perspective.
In fact, it is a war between humans and gods that lasted for thousands of years.
It is a hymn of humanity woven with blood and tears, in which humans fought against and seized power from the gods.
If you haven't played the entire series, it would be difficult to discover this hidden and very obscure core revelation.
Therefore, Xu Mu did not want to stand on the side of the Spartan camp, nor did he want to stand on the side of the Athenian camp.
The ones we should contend with are the Cult of Order and the Order of Ancients, two organizations that hold divine artifacts and attempt to use divine power to take over human society again.
Including the original intention of the Brotherhood in the game, it is also aimed at "liberating all mankind."
In the copy, no matter the player chooses the Peloponnesian League or the Delian League.
They are essentially one group of humans fighting against another group of humans.
The final result was that either Sparta won or Athens won.
Humans lose.
Clarify your thoughts and confirm what to do next.
Xu Mu is back on the road.
We had unimpeded passage all the way and arrived at the port of Kea Island.
I wanted to borrow a boat to travel.
But after seeing Xu Mu clearly, the other party waved his hands to indicate that there would be no charge.
"On Kea Island, no fees will be charged for a warrior like you who is enveloped by the light of the gods."
"Bathed in the light of the gods?" Xu Mu smiled faintly.
And this time, I am going to slaughter the remnants of the gods!
Of course, he would not say these words to the boatman.
It's nice to be able to do something convenient.
After boarding the ship, Xu Mu handed the newly unlocked map of Phokis to the captain.
The moment he took the map, the old captain's expression changed slightly.
"God's Warrior, are you sure you want to go to this place?"
"There has been continuous fighting here in recent days. It is the central area of ​​the conflict between Sparta and Athens and it is very turbulent." He advised worriedly.
Xu Mu smiled faintly and made up a story: "Last night, the oracle appeared in my dream and asked me to go here to guide the peaceful handover between the two sides."
"So that's it! It turns out that all this is the will of the Greek gods!" The old captain was immediately in awe and shouted at the top of his voice: "All sailors, full speed to Vosky!"
…
Kea Island is not far from Phokis and can be reached by water in about an hour.
However, when they were about to arrive at the port of Phokis, Xu Mu suddenly decided to ask the old captain to turn the ship around.
Head to a pirate cove near the port.
As far as I can remember, there are several pirate ships occupying the nearby sea area. The NPCs are approximately level 10 in strength, and the pirate leader is only level 12.
They are not important, what is important is the leaders behind them.
The forces from the Delian League regularly paid the pirates a certain amount of compensation, allowing them to increase their efforts to stir up trouble in nearby waters.
As long as there are civilian fishing boats out to sea, just kill the innocent people.
The Peloponnesian War was the most disruptive war.
The reason why the Delian League did this was that there was another layer of power involved behind the scenes.
It is also Xu Mu’s main hunting target on this trip - the Cult of Order.
When the old captain approached the Pirate Bay, as expected, those pirates who were causing trouble came over in their boats.
Xu Mu jumped onto the pirate ship and killed everyone with absolute crushing damage. Finally, he cut off the pirate leader's head and threw it into his backpack.
The old captain was stunned by the whole process of the explosion.
Even after sending Xu Mu to the destination, he led all the crew members in performing a kneeling ceremony in front of Xu Mu's back.
"He is definitely the reincarnation of the gods! A true god is about to appear in our Greek realm!"
…
After arriving in Phocis, Xu Mu did not stop and quickly found a piece of land occupied by Sparta.
His purpose here was simple.
Approach the Spartan leader and claim from him one of the most powerful Isu artifacts in the Assassin's Creed series - the Spear of Leonidas!
There is always more than one piece of any equipment in the dungeon, but the Isu artifact series is unique.
If someone else gets there first by accident, you will lose your chance to get this artifact.
"Stop! Mercenary boy, this is a military stronghold!"
As soon as Xu Mu stepped into the Spartan camp, a group of soldiers with spears surrounded him, there were more than twenty of them.
At a glance, I saw that the group of people were all around level 15.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing precious armor and a red cloak walked through the crowd and stood in front of Xu Mu.
"What's the matter? A mercenary from another land."
"I'm looking for your leader Nico." Xu Mu looked back at the man.
Stentor.
In the original work, he is the adopted son of Nico, the current leader of Sparta, and is a powerful but lonely warrior.
At a glance, Xu Mu couldn't see through his level, the attributes were all???
There is no way. The attribute detection effect built into the copy is still a bit weak and can only detect enemies within level 15.
In other words, the level of the Stantor in front of him is at least above level 30.
"Looking for our leader?" Upon hearing Xu Mu's words, Stanto immediately showed a scrutinizing look.
After glancing up and down at Xu Mu a few times, he crossed his arms across his chest with an arrogant attitude.
"You are not qualified, mercenary. The leader is not something that every wanderer can meet."
"Unless you can prove yourself." Stanto paused and said again.
"In the nearby waters, a group of pirates have been causing chaos and have intercepted many of our Spartan military cargo ships. However, our attention is currently focused on the cunning Athenians, so..."
Without waiting for him to finish, Xu Mu took out the pirate leader's head from his backpack and threw it at Stantor's feet.
Stantor's eyes froze, and he lowered his head to take a closer look at the appearance of the head.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
When he raised his head again, his arrogant attitude was slightly restrained.
"It seems that I was wrong. You do have some strength."
"But even so, you are still not qualified to see my father."
Xu Mu stood there quietly.
In fact, Xu Mu knew exactly what Stantor was going to say next.
However, this task can only be triggered by talking to him first, otherwise Xu Mu would have done it long ago.
"Next, you need to do something for me. Recently, a group of Athenian lackeys have been tipping them off, putting our battle situation in a difficult position."
"I need you to find that Athenian lackey and bring him back to me with his head."
[You have accepted an important side quest—destroy the stronghold of the Athenian lackeys! ]
"It's very simple, I can complete it." Xu Mu glanced at the task prompt and said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, Stanto immediately raised his eyebrows: "Simple? Are you sure?"
He wanted to give a few more reminders, but he felt that there was no need to waste time talking to a foreign mercenary like Xu Mu.
Ever since the Berti War began, there have always been some mercenaries who wanted to take advantage of the war and gain some benefits.
The mercenary in front of him, who was only level 15 and whose equipment was tattered, was obviously among them.
These mercenaries have always been unable to see their true strength, and many have paid the price with their lives for it.
"Then I wish you good luck." Stantor lost his patience in talking to Xu Mu, and said with a bit of playfulness and frivolity: "If you can return triumphantly, I believe that Blood Wolf Nico will personally summon you, the great warrior, hahahaha."
Xu Mu turned and left without arguing with Stantal.
He was familiar with the plot and knew that this Stantor was actually a good person.
Apart from his arrogant personality, he has no other shortcomings.
He was always the first to charge into the battlefield, fighting bravely and taking great care of his men.
He will be an excellent leader in the future.
…
"Lord Muruo, I have arrived in Phokis as you requested. What should I do next?"
Just shortly after Xu Mu left.
Another ship approached Phokis. After a player jumped off the ship, he opened a separate copy call with Muruo and asked in a low voice.
"The rewards for the tasks you just assigned to me are indeed very generous. They have already allowed me to reach level 10. You are truly the light of our Eastern Region!" the player boasted again.
"What you have to do is simple. Find a way to get close to Nico, the leader of Sparta, and take the Isu artifact from him, the Spear of Leonidas!" Muruo changed her image of a naughty kid in front of outsiders, and now gave orders in a low voice with a stern face.
"I will give you a way to quickly approach Nico. As long as you can get the spear in his hand, you can dominate the entire dungeon at will!"
"Really...really? Is it that strong?" The players' voices were trembling with a bit of greed.
Dominate the S+ level dungeon at will?
This benefit is too great!
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions." He nodded quickly in response.
"However, after obtaining the spear, I need you to help me do something. I will tell you then." After Mu Luo finished her instructions, she hung up the call.
At this time, she was in a dark underground cave.
Bonfires were lit all around the cave, and the surrounding walls and towering stone pillars displayed an orderly beauty that was quite inconsistent with the cave.
This cave was obviously a secret base that was deliberately carved and built by someone.
Ancient and obscure patterns and lines are everywhere and can be seen everywhere.
On the circular altar in the center stands a triangular pyramid made of a mysterious material, emitting an extremely attractive orange glow.
The camp that Mu Luo joined in this dungeon is the Cult of Order.
Her current camp identity is the high priestess.
"God A, I want to see whether you have a better understanding of the copy, or I am better because I have the oracle of the floating island and know some important strategies." Mu Luo sat on the throne of the Cult of Order, her legs folded and crossed, a dangerous sneer on her lips.
"The East Region is not a place for you to just come and act wild."
