Volume 2: The Road to Dragon Feast Chapter 81 Dragon Slaying Mission
Five minutes later——
Murphy stood in the elevator and felt like a fool. How could his superpower disappear just like that? Even though it wasn't a particularly powerful superpower, it was still a superpower after all.
And if the affinity with fire is true, it means that I can gain more powerful abilities through the Dragon Feast Ritual in the future. It seems difficult now. Even if I gain new super powers, what if they are gone after a while?
Could it be that what I experienced last night was all an illusion? It's impossible...
He carefully recalled what happened last night. Because it was three o'clock in the morning, he did feel a little confused after waking up in the middle of the night, so much so that he was now a little unsure.
He was puzzled and couldn't help but take out the lighter again, but after taking a look at the blisters on his hands, he decisively didn't try again.
I felt like this trip to the Sky Building was a lonely one. I didn't understand anything, but I did have a meal for no apparent reason.
Well, at least I have become closer to Wang Xuan and his gang, and learned some inside information about the game. More friends mean more paths, and maybe I can use these relationships in the future.
And if what Wang Xuan said is true, even the game officials cannot directly control the direction of the game, then this game really has endless possibilities.
Before, Haomiao Ruyan had taken a boat to the unopened continent of Kalimdor. As Wang Xuan said just now, if Gul'dan had been a little slower at that time, the adventurers might have gone back to the planet Draenor.
In other words, although the game has only opened the Eastern Continent now and most of the later game maps have not yet been opened, these maps actually already exist.
As long as players find the right method, they can go exploring, but without convenient mechanisms such as official resurrection points, teleportation points, flight points, game maps, etc., exploration will be more difficult.
But there is really a lot that can be done.
It might be a problem for ordinary adventurers, but I am a prince after all. Maybe I can build a fleet and gather an army to dig out the dark power buried in the Tomb of Sargeras, or go to the Titan ruins in Northrend to look for the ancient treasure...
Not to mention, although the game Skyworld borrows the world view of World of Warcraft, it actually has a lot of expansion content, countless secrets to be discovered, and too many good things in the game...
Stop, stop, stop. Don’t think so much about it now. Just improve your own strength first.
The new weekly mission will start in two days, so we have to hurry and start slaying the dragon, otherwise we won’t be able to take on next week’s weekly mission.
After the next Dragon Feast is over, I can see if I will dream again and whether I can awaken other superpowers. If I can, it means that what I had before was not an illusion, and I will have to study it carefully.
If I don't have any dreams and don't awaken other super powers, then I can feel at ease.
After returning home, Murphy immediately entered the game.
After waking up in the bedroom of the palace, Murphy first counted the spoils he had obtained in the past few days.
After a few days of adventure, he had accumulated a large amount of loot, except for the most valuable heart of the lava earth dragon which had been eaten. The dragon slayer's fire amulet was hanging around his neck.
There are also seventeen dragon scales, a large amount of snowman fur, and a lot of miscellaneous low-level equipment and materials.
He kept the dragon scales and yeti fur, and after thinking for a while, he also kept twenty alien weapons dropped by the snakemen, the skinning spears and the snakemen curved swords.
Take whatever is left to the store and sell it directly.
Adding the more than one hundred gold coins he had left, he now has almost two hundred gold coins.
He first went to buy a batch of new supplies. He was so used to playing the BOSS template that he forgot to bring supplies when going out on adventures. The last time he went to the dwarf camp to buy a batch.
The first thing he had to do this time was to buy all the supplies.
Life potions, mana potions, food to replenish physical strength, tents for camping, wood for making fire, torches for lighting at night...
These supplies cost him more than 30 gold coins, and then he went to the Knights of the North Wind's base to buy an Alterac horse, spending another 50 gold coins.
By the way, I found the Knights' riding trainer and learned basic riding skills for free.
Then he went to the palace to find the Knight Commander and learned some basic combat skills for free, including heavy slash, double slash, smooth slash, arrow step - upward strike, arrow step - spinning slash.
These are warrior skills that can be learned at level ten. There are no special requirements. Since you are a prince, you don’t even have to pay tuition. It’s so cool.
When you reach level 20, you can continue to get the remaining basic combat skills for free.
However, since they are basic combat skills, their power is naturally limited. They are just ordinary moves without any special attack effects. They can only be regarded as fancy attacks.
Although learning skills is free, repairing equipment does cost money, especially legendary weapons, the repair fee is even more outrageous. Fortunately, the Dragon Slaying Greatsword has a strong weapon special effect with limited durability consumption, but it still cost more than a dozen gold coins to repair the durability to the maximum.
[Weapon Effect 4: Toughness. Weapon strength increases by 500%, making it harder to be damaged.]
Looking at the only 100 gold coins left in his bag, Murphy sighed, wondering how much salary his father would give him next week.
The next step was to gather troops. Completing the excavation of the Tongtian Peak ruins earned him 100 reputation points and increased his command value by 5 points. Now his command value was as high as 40 points, and he could lead 20 level 2 soldiers.
Considering that they were dealing with a flying black dragon, close combat would be useless, so Murphy's soldiers this time all chose Kingdom crossbowmen.
There are a total of twenty kingdom crossbowmen, which is a very powerful long-range output force. Next, what he has to do is to recruit adventurers.
Murphy didn't plan to look for a professional thug guild because it was too expensive.
All he needed was cannon fodder to draw the fire.
The skill of Storm Sky Slash is definitely a powerful weapon for slaying dragons. Three stages of charging can deal 3,000-5,000 damage to dragon monsters. The HP of a young black dragon is generally only 20,000-30,000, or at most 30,000-50,000. If you can perform ten three-stage Storm Sky Slashes, you can basically kill it, not to mention the output of the kingdom's crossbowmen and adventurers. If you are lucky, five or six Storm Sky Slashes will be enough. The only problem is that this thing takes too long to charge.
The three stages of charging take six or seven seconds and cannot interrupted.
So someone must attract the black dragon's attention during this period.
In addition, the healing profession is also indispensable. His current health is 1050 points, which is not too high for a hero, but it is already a qualified tank for adventurers, of course, the premise is that there must be enough healing.
Therefore, he plans to prioritize recruiting healing professions. It doesn’t matter if their levels are low, as long as they can heal.
Then recruit some cannon fodder, twenty people in total will be enough. If there are more, the mission will be a loss.
It was noon, and the square of Alterac City was bustling with people and adventurers.
Murphy arranged his twenty crossbowmen into a four-by-five square formation. The formation looked quite large. This was called making things easier. Adventurers were all snobbish. If you didn't form a sufficient presence, people would simply not take you seriously.
The bigger the show, the easier it is to attract people.
Murphy himself stood at the front of the team, wearing a North Wind Knight suit, looking majestic. He opened the task release system and began to design the tasks to be released.
Adventurers are creatures that will not risk their lives without benefits. Without sufficient benefits, don't expect them to risk their lives.
Especially for weekly tasks like this, it takes at least several hours to complete, and if the reward is too little, no one will be attracted to do it.
But Murphy didn't want to spend too much money, so he had to use some tricks.
The rewards given to players are very interesting. Different types of adventurers often have different pursuits. Some want gold coins so that they can exchange them for buying ribs.
Some want equipment to improve their own strength.
Some want experience, usually they are upgrading their sub-accounts.
Some want reputation, these are generally high-end professional players, but Alterac reputation cannot be exchanged for anything good, so it is not worth brushing.
Others want the gaming experience.
There are three main groups of adventurers that Murphy targets: those who upgrade their trumpets, those who like to experience RPG stories, and those who like to collect various titles and equipment.
Murphy quickly set up the task and chose to publish it.
【Mission name: The Dragon Slayer of Alterac.】
Mission content: Assist Prince Aidan to eliminate the black dragon that is wreaking havoc in the area around Dragon Roar Peak.
Trigger conditions: Healing profession level 20, other professions level 30.
Maximum number of participants: 20.
Deadline: 10 minutes.
Mission rewards: 2000 experience points, title [Dragon Slayer], and the choice of Bone-stripping Spear or Snake-man Curved Sword.
This task reward will not appear out of thin air. Experience points will be deducted from the person who issues the task, and generating a title will consume reputation.
However, Murphy did not care about this. He could lead his troops to level up and gain experience easily. Reputation was not very meaningful to him at the moment. He was not a professional lord player. Besides, when he became stronger in the future, he would participate in more plot events and his reputation would naturally increase in minutes.
The Bone-Flayer Spear and the Snakeman Curved Sword are both blank weapons. They are not valuable and won't sell for much in a store, but they are unique in appearance. They are still somewhat attractive to players who have never seen such weapons, especially those who collect them. It doesn't matter whether they are useful or not, they have to be collected just because they look novel.
When these three rewards are added together, they don’t look so shabby, at least they are still attractive to targeted groups of people.
This way you can recruit a group of adventurers without spending any money.
He chose to publish the task, and a golden exclamation mark immediately appeared above his head.
