Chapter 66: Lanling City
What Beggar Zhang handed to Xu Youming was a jade talisman. The color was not very bright and it looked very ordinary.
Jade Talisman
???
Xu Youming performed identification techniques on the jade talisman several times but did not get any clues.
"Boy, wait until the level of the Yin-Yang Mirror is improved a bit, and then you can peek into the secrets inside."
The disdainful voice of Beggar Zhang came from the thatched hut.
Xu Youming looked back and put the jade talisman away. It seemed that he would not be able to identify this jade talisman in the short term.
Jogging all the way, Xu Youming appeared beside the village chief.
"Village chief, please send me out of the village."
Without much hesitation, Xu Youming couldn't wait to leave the Novice Village.
"It's you, Youming. Take this letter and give it to your career mentor when you get to the city. It will be helpful to you."
As he spoke, the village chief handed Xu Youming a letter of introduction.
Xu Youming knew that this was the reward for the first few people in the Novice Village who reached level 10.
Every Novice Village has one, which will add corresponding points to the career assessment, so you will only get it from the village chief when you leave the Novice Village.
As the first player in the entire server to reach level 10, he naturally also had this reward, but he never left the Novice Village, so he never received it.
After putting away the letter of introduction, Xu Youming stood in place, feeling a flash of white light in front of his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in a magnificent city.
This is a city that combines Chinese and Western architecture. In addition to the ancient buildings, there are also Gothic palaces that soar into the sky.
However, the various styles are blended together without any sense of incongruity, instead making people feel that this is how architecture should be.
[Ding, welcome to Lanling City. Please read the city entry rules carefully and strictly abide by them. Otherwise, you will be severely punished. I wish you a happy game! ]
The system's voice came slowly, and it turned out that I was randomly teleported to Lanling City.
Xu Youming looked around. He was now in a huge square, which was roughly as big as two or three football fields.
Around the square stand towering buildings, majestic and grand.
There are various signs on those buildings, representing various NPC organizations.
After taking a quick look around, Xu Youming's eyes stopped on a bow and arrow logo. This building should be the Archers Association.
If you want to become an advanced archer, you need to find a corresponding instructor here.
Looking at the players coming and going around me, it doesn't feel like a late night scene at all.
Xu Youming was not in a hurry to take the professional assessment. After being busy all day, he was already feeling tired.
After logging off, Xu Youming quickly washed up and went straight to bed to sleep.
The next day, Xu Youming entered the game early.
When I opened my eyes, I was shocked by the large number of players in front of me. It turned out that there were relatively few people last night.
Countless players gathered in front of every Adventurer's Guild. Except for a small number of players who came for professional assessments, most of them came to accept missions.
Xu Youming walked through the crowd and entered the gate of the Archers Association.
As soon as I entered the gate, the scenery in front of me changed dramatically, and a solemn atmosphere filled me.
This place is bigger than it looks from the outside, as if one has entered another dimension.
Directly in front, there are several huge longbows hanging, with different colors and styles, emitting magnificent light.
On both sides of the passage, there are some wooden dolls, like strict guards.
Xu Youming walked along the passage and soon came to a huge platform.
This is where players accept missions and undergo career assessments.
The man in front of him with a longbow was the archery instructor.
Qiyun
Archer Instructor
Xu Youming stepped forward, submitted his application for the assessment, and also handed over his letter of introduction.
"Oh? Your letter of introduction couldn't be fake, right? Why did you take so long to report here?"
Looking at the letter of introduction in his hand, Qi Yun glanced at Xu Youming, his eyes full of confusion.
The server has been open for more than 20 days now. How is it possible that the top few players in the novice village have not yet taken the professional assessment?
"Some things have been delayed."
After careful verification, Qi Yun could not find any problems with the letter of introduction, so he had to accept it.
"The archer assessment is divided into three levels. You belong to the first tier and can choose to challenge the hell level difficulty."
As he spoke, a selection panel appeared in front of Xu Youming, on which was written the difficulty of the assessment: elementary, intermediate, advanced, and hell level.
Xu Youming had already learned on the forum that the first three players who reached could choose between intermediate, advanced, and hell-level assessments.
Ordinary players can only choose the primary assessment. Those who want to challenge higher difficulty must accept the task from Qi Yun.
Completing the task will earn you corresponding achievement points. When the achievement points reach a certain level, you can unlock higher levels of challenge difficulty.
For a hell-level assessment, 10,000 achievement points are required.
Of course, if the assessment fails, these achievement points will be wasted. If you want to continue the assessment, you need to continue to complete the tasks.
Xu Youming has a letter of introduction, which is equivalent to giving him a chance to take on a hell-level challenge.
The more difficult the challenge, the greater the rewards you will get after success, and there is even a chance to obtain a hidden profession.
There is a rough statistics on the forum now. The probability of obtaining a hidden profession in the primary challenge is 0.001%. There is only one hidden profession in 100,000 people, and the strength of the profession can only reach level B.
The probability of obtaining a hidden profession in the intermediate challenge is 0.01 %. There is one hidden profession in ten thousand people, and the professional strength can reach level A.
The probability of obtaining a hidden profession in advanced challenges is 0.1%. There is one hidden profession in a thousand people, and the strength of the profession can reach S level.
As for the hell level, no probability is given because few people succeed in the challenge, even those players who have letters of introduction rarely succeed.
Of course, if you have enough energy, you can accept achievement tasks from Qi Yun endlessly to continuously pass the professional assessment.
However, there is no way to unlock the level before passing the assessment . In other words, no matter how many tasks you complete, your level will remain at level 10.
A few days ago, many players gave up their levels and tried to improve their hidden professions. After all, owning a special profession will definitely bring smooth sailing in the future.
However, they all seriously underestimated the difficulty of the assessment and the tediousness of the achievement tasks.
So far, only a few players have obtained hidden professions through this method, and most of them are doing useless work.
This is also the reason why after more than ten days, the player's level is not as high as expected.
The complexity of this game exceeded Xu Youming's understanding, and it was almost the same as the system in the real world.
Xu Youming looked at the panel in front of him and decisively chose the "Hell Level" challenge.
