Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 156 The Eve of War
When he advanced to the third level, Marvin's total level soared directly from level 10 to level 13, so he had two free attribute points to allocate.
But the problem is, his agility is now as high as 25 points, and he possesses two super powerful traits: [Wallwalking on Eaves and Walls] and [Glimpses of Light].
It can be said that his agility is already very strong. If he wants to get the next agility specialty, he can only reach 29 points.
29 points is the attribute limit of all human beings. If you want to break through this limit, you must use various methods to improve your life level.
For example, obtaining divinity is one way.
Marvin possesses a virtual godhood and the divinity of the twin world-destroying snakes, so breaking through the 29-point limit is not a problem.
The point is, his agility far exceeds other attributes.
As for the other main attributes, Strength, even with the bonus of [Stone Giant Belt], is still only 15 points, and Constitution is only 13 points.
Strength affects the ranger's offensive capabilities. No matter how fast Marvin's sword is, it is useless if it cannot break the enemy's defense.
However, physical fitness restricts the effectiveness of agility.
Without sufficient physique as a fulcrum, super high agility is just a castle in the air and cannot produce any effect.
Marvin vaguely remembered that the maximum agility that a certain amount of physical strength could support was two points.
The ratio is about one to two.
In other words, 13 points of physique can support 26 points of agility. If Marvin continues to put all two attribute points into agility, then even if his agility reaches 27, he can still only play the effect of 26 points of agility.
This is the limitation of physical constitution.
No strong person develops abnormally, and this is the reason. The six attributes complement each other. It can only be said that there are specializations and biases, but they cannot be seriously lame.
Marvin understood these principles very well.
But the problem is, he feels it is a great pity to allocate such precious free attribute points to physique, strength or other attributes.
Free attribute points are hard to come by.
There are other ways to improve physical fitness and strength.
He thought about it, and finally allocated agility. In this way, his agility reached 26 points, reaching the limit of what his physique could support.
As for the remaining amount, he put it aside for future use.
After ending this war, he must improve his strength and physical fitness.
"Strength is increased to at least 20 points, and the Strength Super Long Trait is obtained."
"As for physical fitness, it must be raised to at least 17 points. Only in this way can the combat power of a ranger or night walker be fully exerted."
Ma Wen secretly made up his mind.
After allocating attribute points and skill points, Marvin rechecked the data panel.
In the task bar, the task "Dark Road" has disappeared.
Mission rewards also appear.
Ten thousand general experience points.
There is nothing else.
This result did not surprise Marvin. He had a hunch that the game system in his body seemed to be a guide. Its purpose was to help Marvin integrate into this world as quickly as possible.
Other than that, it has no other function.
But no matter what, Marvin was indeed very grateful for these digital instructions, otherwise he would not have known .
And 10,000 points of general experience are also very satisfying for Marvin.
In Fenan, it is very difficult to gain experience. Even if you had bombarded a red dragon with a cannon before and doubled the dragon experience, it was still only 16,000 experience points.
The further you go, the harder it is to level up.
Marvin's accumulated experience has now reached nearly 30,000 points, including 20,000 points of killing experience and 10,000 points of general experience.
Even so, it was still not enough to upgrade the Night Walker's level. A Level 5 Night Walker required 35,000 experience points.
To advance to Night Lord, the prerequisite is Ranger level 8/Night Walker level 9. In other words, the total level bonus that a part-time job can provide is at most four levels.
Even if Marvin used the most cost-effective method to advance to Legend, he would need at least an 8th-level Ranger, a 9th-level Night Walker, and a 6th-level Shapeshifter (6 divided by 2 equals 3).
8+9+3=20.
It was just the peak of the fourth level, quasi-legend. If you want to go one step further and become a legend, you must be a ranger level 9 or a night walker level 10.
Therefore, the most important thing is to improve the levels of these two main professions. After all, the second part-time job [Fire Gunner] not only has an experience penalty, but also does not count towards the total level.
The valuable experience is more effective when concentrated on Night Walkers and Rangers.
As for part-time jobs, God knows whether the profession of Magic Warlock can break through the second level - this is related to whether Marvin's bloodline can be awakened.
With Marvin's talent, being able to awaken the Magical Warlock was already the result of the lucky elves' forced promotion. It would not be surprising even if he stayed at the first level for his entire life. Therefore, he did not expect this part-time job to help him too much on the road to legend - unless...
"Unless we can find a way to break through to the second level."
"In this case, I'm afraid we really have to deal with the Cleland family. After all, they are the ones who know the Shapeshifters best."
To be honest, Marvin was a little resistant to this family that suddenly appeared.
But he had probably accepted this fact in his heart.
If I were not a member of the Cleland family, I would definitely not be able to awaken the power of the magic warlock. The inheritance of the White River Valley has always been a bit strange. Since my grandfather's generation, there are only names but no surnames. Marvin asked about this matter at the beginning, but his father was also vague.
Thinking about it now, my grandfather was also quite conflicted. He couldn't choose another surname to pass on, but if he used Cleland as his surname, it would be easier for the Lavis royal family to find him.
So just don't use a last name.
"Marvin Cleland?"
Marvin leaned back on the comfortable pillow, thinking blankly.
Not a bad name.
…
To the east of the Baihe Valley, a temporary camp has been built.
This place is no more than five miles away from the high mountains where the ogres live, and the terrain between the two sides is open, making it difficult for a sneak attack to occur.
Adventurers and logistics teams are busy building various facilities.
The war assembly order issued by Marvin clearly stated the situation of the enemy.
More than forty ogres!
This is a very scary number.
You know, every ogre is a natural elite template. They are born with the strength of the second-level peak.
Most ogres will reach adulthood very quickly; and when they reach old age, they will take the initiative to leave the tribe and choose a place they like to slowly wait out their lives.
So you rarely see young or old ogres in the ogre tribe.
There are more than forty ogres, most of which should be level three.
There was also a large number of fourth-level monsters. As for the legends... the adventurers didn't know much about them.
But the information in Marvin's hands clearly showed that there was definitely a legend in the ogre tribe.
Maybe a wizard!
This was a troubling situation, especially after Daniela's visit.
Hathaway was far away in the Three Rings Tower. She was studying a secret spell recently and had no time to care about Marvin. Otherwise, if there was a legendary wizard to help her, the war would be much easier.
"As for the Legendary Ogre, Ibrahimovic should be able to handle it, or at least contain it."
"But the rest of us, including the other monsters on the mountain, can only rely on our own strength."
Marvin rode his horse and slowly inspected the camp.
Everyone in the camp saluted Marvin when they saw him.
The story of the bloody cross has spread, and every adventurer now is in awe of Marvin.
Before preparing for this war, he had made the best arrangements for the White River Valley.
Anna and Winnie were still in charge of the rear, with half of the guard team left to them, as well as a phantom assassin and a dark guard.
With them, it is enough to deal with any trouble that may arise in the territory.
Constantine was still dealing with Daniela and Oren. The only thing to be thankful for was that his cousin and the elegant knight commander seemed very patient.
Oren even conveyed the following message to Marvin on behalf of Lavis: As for the treasure, we are all family, so we can discuss it after the war is over.
As for how true this statement is , Marvin doesn't know.
In any case, Constantine's fighting force was restrained.
But fortunately... [Purple Glory] was borrowed by Ma Wen again.
This thing is a legendary item that can slay dragons. Constantine is also very helpless. Being tied to Marvin's pirate ship, he has given up.
As for Marvin, he was quite calm. For him, if the White River Valley and the future territory were compared to a company, Constantine and others were venture capitalists, and he was both a shareholder and a company operator. Anyway, he had already made a lot of empty promises, so he didn't mind making more.
The corpse of the red dragon, the gold mine, and more rare materials under the Ogre Mountains - Marvin has already demonstrated the deception ability of some company founders in his previous life when competing for venture capital projects.
The project hasn't even started yet, but the bright prospects seem to be within reach.
He dragged all the forces he could gather into the water.
…
The knights and divine magicians of the Silver Church are ready, led by the white-robed Collins himself.
The two patrol teams from River Beach City also reported to Marvin. With them came six catapults - a slingshot force of twenty-five people!
The second-level wizard group of the Tower of Ashes also arrived at the battlefield today. Their leader was the purple-robed wizard who almost killed Marvin at the entrance of Magor College. Her name was Shirley.
This group of eighteen second-level wizards was composed of combat mages that Hathaway had forcibly selected, and each of them possessed impressive strength.
As for the White River Valley itself, in addition to the adventurers on Marvin's recruitment list, a dozen guard members and some reserve militia will also follow Marvin.
However, most of these people serve as messengers, and Marvin also wants to train them.
The real backbone of the force are the seventeen dark guards following Marvin!
Marvin rode on his horse, looking at the smoke on the mountain from afar, which was a sign of provocation from the ogre tribe.
Obviously, humans' large-scale construction projects cannot but arouse their vigilance.
Ogres are no fools.
They are ready for battle.
War is coming.
