Volume 1 Feathering Chapter 50 Sam's Advancement
As Levi was speaking, he heard a very crisp crashing sound. Sam directly opened a slightly worn wooden box and took out two things from it.
One was a slightly worn wine jug, and the other was a scabbard with an unknown pattern. They both looked ordinary at first glance, but there was a faint glow on the surface. They were obviously magical items and were definitely worth some money.
But after taking it out, Sam still stood there and did not hand over all the spoils to Levi, his employer, as agreed when he was first hired.
Donna, who had been searching for spoils while remaining on high alert, couldn't help but subconsciously look at Levi when she saw this, as if reminding him to speed up, and as if waiting for some orders.
Levi's eyes also flickered, he knew what the other party meant.
After all, Sam has always been just a mercenary, and unlike Donna, his relationship with me is not as complicated. He joined me simply for money at the beginning.
And Levi also knew that although this temporary employment contract did not require the consumption of his own leadership, it was actually very easy to break.
The most obvious example is the ogre mercenaries, who will treat their employers as food when they are hungry. More than one player born in the mercenary kingdom has had personal experience of this on the forum.
Although the Halflings belong to the Order camp and tend to be kind, money can tempt people. In such a chaotic battlefield, it is hard to guarantee that the other party will not have some ulterior motives. After all, Sam is a thief!
But he did not take any action. After all, they were still comrades fighting side by side, and he never had the habit of launching attacks on friendly forces.
And since following me, Sam has indeed done his best and has faced many life-threatening situations. He has always been worthy of me.
Donna rolled her eyes and immediately strode in the other direction. If Sam really had some other ideas, he would have to step over her before he could walk out the door.
Maybe in reality it was delayed for less than five seconds, but Levi felt it was very long. Fortunately, Sam seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and he ran over happily with two things in his hand.
"My Lord, I just gained enough experience points to advance!"
Levi immediately smiled, and Donna, who was a few meters away, also pursed her lips, then turned around and continued to be on guard. Fortunately, things did not develop in the worst direction.
"Oh? Really? This is such a surprise. Congratulations, Sam!"
After taking the two things, he didn't even have time to check the specific information. He just quickly glanced at Sam's status bar.
Sure enough, just as Sam said, he has now reached the point of advancement.
Although he hadn't killed many enemies personally these days, his crossbow would occasionally be coated with poison to cause certain damage to the enemy, and combined with other things like dismantling traps, he actually made a lot of money.
He now has two branches to choose from for advancement.
Branch 1, Wanderer, can enhance the ability to dismantle traps, open treasure chests, etc., requiring 1.5 silver coins;
Branch 2, Stalker, gains stealth skills , allowing for more covert reconnaissance, etc., requiring 1.7 silver coins.
Judging from the price, the latter's ability is obviously rarer, but Levi did not help the other party make a choice immediately.
"So what do you mean Sam?"
"My lord, I want to advance to a rogue. We halflings are not suitable for fighting. And I want the treasure chest over there!"
Sam casually pointed behind him, where there was a bronze treasure chest that looked more advanced than the one he had just opened.
As a thief, although he doesn't know how to identify things, he still has some vision. Otherwise, if he enters a treasure house one day and doesn't know which one is the most valuable, wouldn't that be too embarrassing for a thief?
"Got it. I'll pay for you. Open it as soon as possible and then we'll get out of here!"
Sam was immediately very excited. As the light flashed, his skills and attributes changed.
Name: Sam (Wanderer)
Tier: Tier 2 (Elite), Experience 0%
Attributes: Strength 7, Agility 9, Constitution 5, Intelligence 3, Perception 5, Charisma 2
Skill:
Trap Sense (Basic), a passive skill that allows you to detect traps earlier;
Elite, passive skill, random two attributes +1, currently strength and constitution, and gain extra health bonus (related to one's own occupation and constitution), the current bonus is 10 (2X5X1).
Compared to before, Sam's strength increased by 2 points, agility, intelligence and perception increased by 1 point, and he also gained an additional skill. The original elite also changed, with 10 points of health increased, making him a little more resistant than before.
But what is the formula for his elite skill bonus? It seems to be quite different from that of Zhou Miyin, who is also an elite...
Taking another look at Sam's equipment, Levi found that they were all updated along with his advancement, but the attack power and defense power were only increased by 1 point each, which was probably a consolation.
First, he raised Sam's salary according to the system's prompts, and then asked him to dismantle the bronze treasure chest as soon as possible. Levi waved to call Donna.
"Donna, I'll give this to you for now."
"A wine bottle? Although I'm not a big drinker, it doesn't matter ."
Levi raised his eyebrows and did not comment. He did not completely believe what Donna said. But he still remembered that Donna was put in jail because of drunkenness and fighting.
Although she was probably at the lowest point in her life at that time because she had just lost her memory and power, he would never believe that she didn't like to drink.
Donna took the wine flask and took a look at it. She found that it was actually a magical item. The smile on her face suddenly became even bigger.
"Thanks, Levi."
Drunkard's Old Flagon (Rare Item - Green - Excellent), can hold 5 liters of wine (only one type at a time), currently malt wine (1/5 liter).
When there is wine in the jug, you can activate the special skill attached to the jug - Aged Wine , and randomly restore 15-35 health points by drinking a sip of wine.
This effect can be used up to 5 times per day, with a minimum interval of 30 seconds between each use.
After use, you will enter a tipsy state, with your physical attack hit rate reduced by 5% and your magic miss rate increased by 15%.
Requirements: None
(I know drinking is bad, but it tastes really good~)
This is also the reason why Levi gave up using it directly. He still doesn't know what the consequences of a magical error will be. Will the magic points be wasted or will it cause harm to himself? But in any case, he doesn't want to try it.
But for Donna, some negative effects are not important at all, as she has more than one skill that can improve her attack hit rate.
Once she has enough wine in her tank, even under the worst circumstances, five drinks could restore 75 health points, which is equivalent to half of her life.
He also had no use for the other item, and no one in the team could use it for the time being.
Glimmering Scabbard (Wonderful Item – Green – Excellent) You can place any dagger or sword into the scabbard, and the interior of the scabbard will automatically adapt to its specifications, and any weapon inserted into the scabbard will remain clean and sharp.
If you take it out after five minutes, the weapon will be as shiny as new, with attack power +1, which lasts for 30 minutes.
Additionally, three times per day, you can have the scabbard cast the bless weapon skill on the weapon it holds as you draw the weapon from it.
Blessed weapons, when activated, can trigger the first-level magic of the same name, infusing the weapon with divine power for 5 minutes. During this period, the weapon's attack power against all evil camp creatures is increased by 3-5 points, and it can attack incorporeal creatures such as ghosts.
Requirements for use: Limited camp - good.
Sam could use this scabbard, but he is not a full-time fighter, so it would be a waste to give it to him.
But this does not mean that it has no value. It can even be said that its value may be higher than that of the same green wine jug. After all, no matter what race, there are a lot of people who use swords. Although the bonus of its two skills is not high, its versatility is very high.
While thinking, Sam also opened another treasure chest, but before he could see clearly what was inside, he heard a few "puff" sounds, and several balls of green mucus flew out of the treasure chest.
Sam screamed immediately and dodged to the side immediately, because he had a very deep impression of this mucus. It was almost exactly the same as the attack launched by the kobold wizard Doug Bone Eater before. It was a highly corrosive acid!
At the same time, Levi also heard a series of "cracking" sounds, which sounded like the collision of some hard object!
