Chapter 17: Skill Book
in the Il family's home.Because the mission was too difficult and it was a covert operation, this incident caused quite a stir in Security Zone 886 at the time. Zhang Yi's memory of it is therefore pa...Whoa!
A beam of golden light fell from the heavens and ascended to level 5.
The rewards for hidden quests are really way higher than regular quests!
Opening his backpack, the first thing that caught his eye was a silver light armor. It looked shiny and beautiful, it should be a good piece of equipment. Zhang Yi casually took it out—
Guardian Armor:
Quality: 2 stars
Health: 120
Additional attribute: Agile3
Occupation restriction: None
Level Requirement: 5
Description: This is the Guardian's Glory, symbolizing that the wearer once protected those in need outside Hope Town. May this armor, like you protected Hope Town, protect you...
As expected of a hidden quest, it actually rewarded me with a 2-star piece of equipment! Keep in mind that there are only three hours left until the start of the Apocalypse game. At this moment, almost all players worldwide, over 90%, haven't even collected half the equipment for seven body parts, and Zhang Yi has already obtained a 2-star armor!
And the basic attributes of these 2-star armors are also extremely high. The 1-star armor at level 5, which can be purchased in the shop, has a life increase of around 50 to 60. Just by improving the quality by one level, the basic attributes increase by twice!
This is still strengthening the previous base attributes, and when strengthened to level 25, the base attributes will be multiplied by 2.5 again, it's amazing.
First putting aside the armor, Zhang Yi's gaze shifted to a white book lying quietly inside his bag.
In the TianQi world, players learn most skills through skill books in addition to learning one profession basic skill with each job change.
However, skill books can only be obtained by players after reaching level 10 and completing their first job change, either by slaying monsters in the wild or opening treasure chests. This hidden quest gave Zhang Yi a special privilege, rewarding him with a skill book even before he had changed jobs!
Although it was a lowest quality white skill book, only level 5, Zhang Yi was content.
Skill books are classified by color, ranging from lowest to highest as white, green, blue, purple, orange, red, and gold. Generally, skill books are non-upgradable except for specific cases.
Then, Zhang Yi picked up the skill book—
【Fatal Blow】
Quality: White
Description: Upon use, grants the skill Deadly Strike (effect: charges your weapon to unleash a fatal attack on an enemy, dealing 115% physical damage. Consumes 2 energy, energy cost varies with user level, this is the cost at level 1. Cooldown time is 10 seconds.)
Job Requirement: Assassin (Untrained players can also use it. After reaching level 10, if the player is not an Assassin, the skill will be automatically returned in the form of a skill book.)
Consumes 1 skill slot
White skills, the effects are definitely the worst, besides increasing 15% damage, this skill has no other features, but it's better than nothing.
Also, regarding skills.
In the world of Tianqi, every skill a player possesses occupies a skill slot. Starting at level 0, players automatically gain 1 skill slot for every 3 levels they ascend. Learning white skills requires 1 skill slot, and subsequently, as the skill quality increases by one level, the consumed skill slots increase by 1. A golden skill consumes 7 skill slots.
Of course, don't think that because white skills consume fewer skill slots, you can infinitely stack whites. A golden skill is incomparable to a hundred white skills. Even if you throw out dozens of white or green skills, it's not as powerful as a single red or even orange skill from someone else.
Zhang Yi, who had reached level 5, happened to have a skill slot available. He used the skill book, and as the skill book transformed into starlights that merged into Zhang Yi's body—
"Ding~ Congratulations on mastering the skill [Fatal Blow]!"
Looking at the skill list, my current level 5 character can use a critical strike. It costs 5 energy points to use, and with Zhang Yi's 75 energy points, he can use it 15 times.
I won't say it for the whole server, but there are definitely players who got skills before level 10 through special means. At least as the first player in Security Zone 886 to master a skill, Zhang Yi felt that he was pretty awesome.
Fortunately, the dragon bloodline skills don't occupy skill slots, otherwise Zhang Yi wouldn't be able to handle the first gold skill, [Hell Dragon Flame].
The 100 level 1 enhancement stones rewarded from hidden missions can be synthesized into 50 level 2 stones, which are more than enough to enhance the 2-star [Guardian Armor]. However, Zhang Yi wasn't in a hurry to enhance it because he still had a two-star treasure chest dropped by a spider boss. In case the treasure chest contained a 3-star piece of equipment, these 100 level 1 enhancement stones could also be synthesized into 25 level 3 enhancement stones, directly enhancing the 3-star equipment to level 25.
It's better to be safe than sorry. You never know your luck, so it's always best to be prepared.
Knowing he could no longer trigger quests on the father and daughter in Erfu, Zhang Yi bid farewell to the pair and headed to Hope Town's store. He spent 1 silver coin to purchase a 2-star treasure chest key.
Witness the moment of miracles.
Use the key to open the treasure chest.
"Ding~ Congratulations on opening a 2-star treasure chest, you obtained 50 silver coins!"
"Holy crap, it's not equipment after all!"
Although it costs one silver coin to exchange for 50, this deal is also worthwhile. Being able to produce 50 silver coins at once makes Zhang Yi very satisfied.
Because in the world of Tianqi, there are so many places where gold coins are used. Without them, it would be impossible to get around in the world of Tianqi.
To synthesize enhancement stones, you will need a large sum of money.
Upon arriving at the blacksmith's shop in town, Zhang Yi spent 125 copper coins to synthesize 25 level 2 enhancement stones from 50 level 1 enhancement stones at a price of 5 copper coins per piece.
Then, under the effect of 【God-Level Enhancement】, I used 10 level 1 enhancement stones and 25 level 2 enhancement stones to enhance both the 15【Bio Pants】 dropped from King's Glory and this 【Guardian Armor】 to level 25.
"Ding~ Enhancement successful, congratulations! Your equipment [Biohazard Pants] has reached level 25 and unlocked the exclusive talent [Defense Solidification]! "
"Ding~ Reinforcement successful, congratulations on your equipment [Guardian Armor] reaching level 25 reinforcement, unlocking the exclusive talent [Angel's Protection]!"
Originally, the pants increased 6 points of defense. After reaching level 25, the defense bonus reached 21 points. The "Defensive Consolidation" talent unlocked further added 10 points of defense, instantly boosting Zhang Yi's defense from 46 points to a staggering 71 points!
And the guardian armor of 25, its base life increased from 120 to 420. In addition, the attribute bonus increased by 3 agility points, reaching a total of 11!
[Angel's Protection], upon equipping, grants a shield to the wearer equal to 10% of their maximum health when attacked. The shield lasts for 10 seconds and has a cooldown of 10 seconds.
Equipped with the Guardian Armor, Zhang Yi opened his status bar and took a look. Good guy, his health value had broken through the 500 mark, soaring to a high of 570 points!
Looking at his current data, Zhang Yi nodded with satisfaction: "Next, we can go for the big ones."ain. Besides, the captain had said that there was a reward of 10,000 for each death.As soon as the words left his mouth, "whoosh!" a flying arrow shot out from Zhang Yi's hand, hitting squarely in the...
