Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 327 Overlapping Employment Requirements
Just like the various schools of thought under the human nature of the main world, in this game world, all walks of life also have their own Taoist duties.
They are all software written by our ancestors and uploaded to the "World Network".
Later comers only need to meet the download requirements to download and use it directly, which is very convenient.
Lin Qianxing initially thought it was a belief system, but now it seems that it should be closer to a human practice system.
If it is faith, then believers are required to provide feedback.
But the Taoists in this world do not need to provide anything to the world.
You can just ask for it unilaterally, and there is no intention of asking you to give any feedback.
Of course, from Lin Qianxing's perspective, this statement is not absolute.
The power of the Taoists comes from the Infinite Lord in the Infinite Heaven.
When you use its power, you are also helping to develop its power, so perhaps the Infinite Masters are using this method to make the information about the Tao they have mastered more complex.
Let’s get back to the topic.
After discussing with Du Ji for a while, Lin Qianxing suggested that he choose Tiangongyuan.
The Taoist position that can be learned in Tiangong Academy is [Apprentice].
That is, various types of craftsmen.
Lin Qianxing's main methods are refining equipment, making talismans, and refining pills.
The medical theories covered by the elixir are too complicated, and Lin Qianxing is still unable to understand the properties of the medicines, minerals, etc. in this world. Starting over is obviously not an easy project, and it is also difficult for Du Ji to learn, so he is not considering it for the time being.
The same goes for talismans. The rules of each world are different, and it is quite complicated for him to study them from scratch, so he had to give up.
But it’s different when it comes to refining equipment. The physical rules are somewhat similar, so many mechanical creations can definitely be used.
As long as Lin Qianxing provides the drawings, Du Ji will probably be able to make many things by simply copying them.
So in Lin Qianxing's opinion, Tiangongyuan is the best choice.
It took almost half an hour to reach Tiangong Academy, and after paying ten silver coins, Du Ji officially became a member of Tiangong Academy.
There are no restrictions on students' studies in the academy. As long as you want and have enough energy and money, you can study multiple Taoist positions at the same time and study in multiple colleges.
That day Du Ji attended the first class of Tiangong Academy.
The lecturer was Tan Wenhao from Tiangong Academy, a lower-rank third-order [Stonemason].
[Apprentice] This profession is very special. It includes many things. You need to start subdividing it at the second level. After the third level, it will be officially determined whether you are specialized or all-round.
So at the beginning, they were all [apprentices], but later on, the third level would have different specialized craftsmanship directions, such as [sculptor], [caster], [carpenter], [stonemason] and so on.
"Becoming a [Craftsman's Apprentice] is a very simple matter. All you need to do is find the right skill, use it over and over again, and make one artifact after another. This is a Taoist position that uses tools, hands, and wisdom to create..."
As Tan Wenhao spoke, the stone in his hand was quickly polished into a smooth, round stone ball.
"You don't have to be obsessed with those complicated skills. Even the most basic skills, if you can reach the pinnacle, can turn decay into magic."
Holding the stone ball, Tan Wenhao casually placed it into the stone plate and twisted it, and it began to spin.
No sound was heard during the whole process, and the stone ball seemed to be still.
This means that he polished the stone ball very smoothly, and the friction between it and the stone plate is extremely low, so no sound is heard and it can rotate so quickly.
The students who come to Tiangong College to study all know something about the business, so they were naturally surprised when they saw this scene.
"The truth is simple, there is no need to look far for it." Du Ji said in shock.
He has also been exposed to many craftsmanship skills, and even his pens, ink, paper, and inkstone are all made by himself.
It's barely usable, but definitely not excellent.
Not to mention being comparable to a third-level [Craftsman].
"It's really something to be able to achieve such precision through pure hand-polishing," Lin Qianxing also praised.
After one class, Du Ji also had some ideas about obtaining the Taoist position of [Apprentice].
What he is hesitating about now is where to start.
"Let's make weapon casting. I have made some achievements in this area," Lin Qianxing suggested.
"Okay." Duggie nodded.
In the following days, Duggie began to purchase the corresponding items.
After getting a set , I was short of eight silver and fifteen coppers.
It's not that he couldn't rent things from Tiangongyuan, but Lin Qianxing still advised him to get his own set. This would avoid trouble and also make it easier to use his own things.
Then Lin Qianxing began to guide Du Ji to forge the first sword in his life.
"The sword is a gentleman's weapon. You are a scholar after all, so it is necessary for you to have a better sword to show off." Lin Qianxing said.
In the academy, many students have the habit of wearing swords. The reason why Du Ji doesn't have a sword is mainly because he is poor.
A good sword would cost at least a few hundred silver coins, and a more expensive one could even cost tens of gold coins.
He simply couldn't afford it.
But now that I build it myself, that’s another story.
The only problem is that it would be frustrating if you didn’t build it well.
Du Ji rolled up his sleeves, held a sledgehammer, and kept smashing the furnace in his yard, while Lin Qianxing kept correcting his mistakes.
He has the Taoist skill of [Photographic Memory] and has a very strong memory . He can quickly remember anything that Lin Qianxing corrects, so he learns very quickly.
He worked hard all day, until the food Wen He brought him at noon had gone cold, and he finally forged his first sword in his life.
It is a short sword more than one foot long.
It was about two fingers wide, had no patterns, was forged in a mediocre way, and had a lot of impurities. In Lin Qianxing's eyes, this thing was just an ordinary object of the lower grade.
And in the judgment of the game system, it is not even ranked.
[Unnamed Dagger [Not in the Ranks]: An unnamed dagger.]
Looking at Du Ji, who took several tries to cut the wood with the dagger and was still feeling complacent, Lin Qianxing felt it necessary to show him what real skills were.
"Boy, are you happy about forging this kind of garbage? Let me teach you what real forging is, burning the furnace!" Lin Qianxing said.
Du Ji was in doubt and asked, "Master Bi, are you planning to forge it yourself?"
"Why not ?" Lin Qianxing said.
"No, I'm just worried that your body can't withstand the fire..." Du Ji said hesitantly.
"What a joke! My soul is immortal. Although I am a mortal now, I can still survive all disasters under the protection of my soul." Lin Qianxing said disdainfully.
As he spoke, Lin Qianxing jumped up and stabbed the tip of his pen at the dagger that Du Ji had just made.
Duggie raised his sword reflexively to meet the attack, and then something happened that shocked him.
Click~clang!
Half of the sword fell to the ground, but Lin Qianxing was unharmed and floated back to the forging table with the help of the force.
He had no time to feel sad that the sword he made was destroyed. Feeling his arm numb, Duggie was so shocked that he could no longer contain himself.
"What are you standing there for? Light up the stove." Lin Qianxing said.
"Yeah." Du Ji put the half dagger aside and started to light a fire in front of the stove.
"Release the information."
"Molding."
…
Under Lin Qianxing's command, Du Ji took out a handful of iron blanks from the mold in an orderly manner.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing asked Du Ji to fix the iron blank, and then, with a shocked expression on his face for who knows how many times, he used his body as a hammer to hit the iron blank.
The high temperature from the scorching iron embryo burned Lin Qianxing's body, but with the help of the [Hengwo] plug-in, Lin Qianxing was unharmed, only a little pain was transmitted to his soul, but this was a good thing, his soul would become stronger because of this tempering.
Lin Qianxing struck on the iron blank very quickly. Although his pen was thin and he could not strike many parts at one time, the advantage was that he could better control the details.
Soon, with Du Ji's cooperation, the impurities in the iron blank were forged out, making it tougher and gradually turning into a sword blank.
After quenching, it is sharpened and a wooden handle is added.
A three-foot long sword was forged.
Lin Qianxing took a glance and saw the introduction information of the game system.
[Nameless Long Sword [Unclassified]: A pretty good iron sword.]
Although it is still not at the top level, at least it has been evaluated as "pretty good".
"See how it compares to yours?" Lin Qianxing said to Du Ji.
Du Ji swung the sword, making a sound of breaking through the air, and then he chopped the same piece of wood he had used to test the sword.
With a gentle cut, it was cut in half.
Although he was mentally prepared, Duggie still couldn't help being a little surprised.
He felt a little ashamed. It was really wrong to be complacent with his achievements.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master Bi. I will start forging again right away." Du Ji said sincerely.
"Just make sure of it yourself." Lin Qianxing said, "This sword is for you. Give it a name."
"Thank you, Mr. Bi. Let's call it [Wu Jiao]." Du Ji said, looking at the iron sword.
Lin Qianxing was very satisfied with his attitude.
I turned around and looked at my panel properties.
There are now several more Taoist process above.
【Apprentice (Not employed 7/100)】.
[Swordsmith (not employed 11/100)].
【Blacksmith (unemployed 4/100)】.
[Weapon Maker (Not in office 5/100)].
Lin Qianxing didn't expect that just forging a sword would involve four Taoist positions at the same time.
There seems to be some overlap in their job requirements.
But except for [Apprentice] Lin Qianxing who knew that he only needed to make enough excellent tools to get the job, he had no idea about the job requirements for the other three Taoist positions.
However, from this point Lin Qianxing can see that the number of Taoist data packages uploaded by the predecessors seems to be quite large. As long as you know the employment conditions, it should not be difficult to become a Taoist.
But Lin Qianxing also knew that not every Taoist position had a follow-up.
Some Taoist positions only have a first-level situation, and those who want to advance to the second-level Taoist position simply cannot do so.
If you want to keep moving forward, you need to carve your own path.
It goes without saying that it is easier to open up a new path or to simply follow the path that others have already walked.
So if you don't choose the right path, the road ahead is suddenly blocked, you waste a lot of time, and you don't have the talent or ability to blaze a trail forward, then you will most likely have to stop here.
For this reason, choosing a good Taoist position is also very important.
