Lord of War

2. Another world

Miracle Continent is the continent where this world is located. It is divided into dozens of kingdoms and empires. Its continent is so vast that no one can imagine it, not to mention that there are many others around this continent. Unidentified islands and undiscovered territories.

On Miracle Continent, the closer you are to the north, the warmer the climate will become. The air is not dry, but the humidity is not too high, which can be regarded as the most comfortable living environment. And the Kingdom of Serion is located in such a northern region, so naturally it can be regarded as a rich and powerful kingdom. However, no matter how rich and powerful a country is, there will always be some areas that lag behind in development, and it can even be said to be a hindrance to the development of a kingdom-although the reason may also be related to the local lords, but ordinary people But don't think so.

This is a small village located in the Sivir Land of the Serian Kingdom.

The scale of this village is not large, there are only about 30 families in the whole village. However, because the village has no special products for export, let alone businessmen, not even foot traffickers come to this place, so the flow of people here can be said to be almost zero, usually not a few people pass by a year. Although the village is not prosperous, it is at least not barren. Relying on hunting and farming twice a year, the villagers can live fairly well.

However, since a few months ago, an undead black warrior from nowhere occupied an old ruin outside the village, the people in the village have become uneasy all day long. Because from that time, people in the village began to disappear, and later it developed to the point where every night, every household closed the door and did not dare to come out, because there were actually walking corpses appearing in the village.

And because the village's economy is really not very good, it is natural that people from the mercenary group can't be invited to help - and after those small-scale mercenary groups heard the exclusive words of the undead such as black warrior and walking corpse, Don't dare to take on this task. As for reporting to the lord, the village chief sent someone over, but the lord's army has not come to encircle and suppress it for so long, which makes the people in the village feel a sense of despair of being abandoned.

This ruin used to be a nobleman's mansion. At that time, the surrounding environment of the village was quite good, but with some man-made development and destruction, the beauty around the village no longer exists. Later, this mansion naturally became was abandoned. Later, perhaps due to severe weathering or other reasons, the mansion collapsed into ruins.

At this moment, nearly fifty villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, looking at the ruins in the distance with anticipation.

The ruins are not too far from the village, and the outline of the ruins can still be seen standing at the entrance of the village.

"Village chief, those two children... are they really all right?"

"It should be... no problem." The old man who was called the village chief stooped, and his face was a little uncertain, "That person warned us before this monster appeared, so... so he There must be a way."

However, no matter who, who entered the ruins that were no different from hell in the eyes of the villagers, and no news came out for five or six hours, they would definitely not think it was a good thing. It's just that they were the only people who were willing to help them in recent months, so even though it's been so long, everyone gathered here spontaneously, keeping expectations and hope.

Just when the faces of the villagers began to show disappointment, two figures finally appeared on the horizon.

Most of the villagers began to rub their eyes, and when it was determined that it was really the two people who said they would help him solve the trouble and then ran to the ruins, all the villagers cheered, and then they were like The tide rushed towards the two figures.

These two figures are naturally Sean and Cecilia.

Cecilia was wearing a black and white gothic dress.

Holding a golden book about 30 centimeters in thickness and 30 centimeters in length and width in his arms, his delicate facial features are somewhat expressionless at the moment, but his gaze towards Sean beside him is a little bit more. Resentful, he muttered from time to time, "Liar!"

Sean smiled wryly, rubbed Cecilia's head, and said, "I told you a long time ago, don't just run away, and when I trick it to you, I will use fireball to deal with it, but you don't listen. , if you are so embarrassed, how can you blame me for such a thing."

"fraud!"

Sean was helpless.

In fact, the tactic of entering the ruins against the Darth Vader went relatively smoothly at first.

There are only about ten walking corpses in the entire ruins. With the cooperation of Sean's swordsmanship and Cecilia's spells, these are very easy to solve. Of course, the process is not very beautiful. After all, for Cecilia In other words, the walking corpse is really ugly and scary. However, the smooth journey down the road turned into chaos after encountering the Black Warrior.

Originally, according to Sean's plan, he was responsible for attracting the hatred of the black warrior, and then led the black warrior to the vicinity of Cecilia, and then solved it by Cecilia's fireball technique. Spent hours in this ruin. But what Sean didn't expect was that Cecilia was actually startled by a mouse, and then was discovered by Darth Vader, and then followed a series of embarrassing dodging and fleeing, because Darth Vader had already entered at that time. After the rampage stage, even if Sean has experience in dealing with Darth Vader, he would not dare to provoke him at this time.

Of course, if that's the case, Cecilia wouldn't scold Sean, but Sean told her that this task is very easy, as long as she throws a few fireballs, it can be done easily. But in fact, Cecilia was almost slashed by Darth Vader. Being frightened so positively, of course Cecilia would not give Sean a good look, but considering that she was only a twelve or three For a young girl, Sean really couldn't say anything.

"Sure enough, it's not the same as the game." Sean looked at Cecilia who was still puffed up, and he murmured, "There are still too many unexpected factors, this is just a tenth-level dungeon... "

"What are you mumbling about again!" Cecilia glanced at Sean, although there was still not much expression on her face, but she was not as annoyed as before, "It's always so eloquent, those villagers are all coming."

"It's nothing." Sean shook his head. He glanced at the villagers who were cheering and running over. There was a little more smile on his serious face. Although he looked quite embarrassed at the moment, he had that confidence and calmness on his body. It's easy to make people feel like they have found the backbone, "Yes, this is no longer a game, but a real world!"

As if to strengthen his beliefs, Sean raised the head belonging to the Dark Knight in his hand in front of all the villagers.

Immediately, the cheers of the villagers grew louder.

Just like surrounded by heroes who returned triumphantly, Sean and Cecilia were welcomed back to the village by the villagers with great enthusiasm, which made Cecilia, who was not very good at communicating with people, feel a little distressed, but this It's time for Sean to take care of her. After returning to the village, it was a grand dinner like a celebration. There was even fish food at the dinner. You must know that this village is not near the sea, and the main food is meat and vegetables. Fish food is generally only available on major festivals. It is only possible to appear from time to time. The most rare thing is that the fish and creatures at the dinner are very fresh, which makes Sean very clear that the enthusiasm and welcome of these villagers are real, and there is no falsification.

After the dinner was over, the villagers even arranged a clean house for Sean and Cecilia to live in. Under the enthusiasm, Sean could only choose to stay in the village for one more day. .

...

The north wind in the middle of the night was not as cold as expected. Sean stood at the window on the second floor of the house and looked out the window.

After a while, Sean finally left the window. He turned his head and glanced at Cecilia who was sleeping on the bed. From the look on her face, it could be seen that the little girl was sleeping very sweetly. And looking at Cecilia sleeping, Sean also showed a rare smile: "It's been a year..."

There was deep emotion in the words.

In fact, Sean doesn't belong to this world, he comes from a place called Earth.

However, even he himself couldn't explain why he appeared in this world, and the memory of the last scene when he came to this world was that he led the guild's elite group to open up wasteland and was known as the most difficult one in the game at that time. Hundreds of copies. The memory after that is that he woke up inexplicably in a suburb. He was penniless and had to face the pursuit of a few local dogs. If there were no hunters nearby, I am afraid that he would have become one of those locals. The dog's belly is eaten.

After that, Sean sorted out his thoughts and dealt with it with the goal of surviving as the top priority. As for why he can adapt to the pace of life and habits of this world so quickly, and even has a surprising understanding of many things, this is entirely due to the virtual online game "Miracle" that Sean played when he was on Earth. "--because this world is exactly the same as "Miracle"!

As Sean learned this, he also began to discover the secrets hidden in himself: Although he came to this world with only one level, and he didn't bring the luxurious equipment and amazing wealth he used to have, However, his skill panel was brought over by him along with his travel. Many of the skills on it are powerful skills that Sean spent a lot of time and energy collecting.

Although these skills could not be used at first, after discovering that the world was exactly the same as the game "Miracle", Sean quickly knew what to do. But even if he knew what to do, when he actually started to implement these plans, he realized how difficult it was: because this is already a real world, not just a virtual game like a game, A lot of times you don't care about all kinds of situations.

In Miracle Continent, Sean will not only face various death threats, but he will also work hard to make money in order to provide food and clothing, and even think of ways to improve his level. In addition to this, there are all kinds of practical problems that plague him, such as injuries, the distance of the journey - an hour's journey in the game may become more than a month in the real world, or even because of This is a real world, so naturally there will be no so-called blood bars and blue bars. Once you break your hands and feet, you will be disabled for life, and if you die, then it must be a real death.

But even so, Sean still didn't give up, because he was very aware of the gap between himself and others: proficiency - he was just like the player in the game at the beginning, every time he improved his level, he could gain a little proficiency point.

This is what Sean values ​​most.

On Sean's skill table, only three skills have been activated so far.

[Sprint: Run quickly for six meters forward. Auxiliary/First-Order/Normal, Level 2/3, Proficiency 1/4. 】

[Consecutive Slash: Perform three consecutive attacks. Swordsmanship/first-order/normal/sword, level 2/5, proficiency 2/4. 】

[Snatch the blade: If the sum of strength, endurance, and agility is greater than the sum of the three goals, the opponent's weapon will be successfully captured. Auxiliary/First-Order/Special/Empty Handed, Level 1. 】

It took Sean nearly a year to finally reach the tenth level. He naturally did not dare to use it indiscriminately with only ten proficiency points.

Because in the later stage, there are definitely not only a few skills of players, and the activation of skills must consume one proficiency point, and the activation of special skills needs to consume more proficiency points, not to mention that proficiency points can also be used in It is about improving personal attributes or improving life occupation skills, so the use of each proficiency point must be carefully considered.

The activation of general skills needs to consume one proficiency point, and a skill like "Seize the Blade", as a first-order special skill, only needs to consume two proficiency points for activation. As for skills like "Lian Slash" and "Sprint", there are certain restrictions at the first level, and only as the level increases, will the power or other effects gradually increase: for example, "Lian Slash" "At the first level, you can only attack twice in a row, and at the second level, you can only attack three times.

Don't look at the improvement of proficiency, it doesn't seem to be high, it only takes three proficiencies to upgrade the combo to level 3, but in fact, each proficiency improvement requires a month of perseverance, and it must be maintained every day. Twelve hours or more of exercise.

And now the two skills of Lian Slash and Sprint are in the second stage, or because of Sean's hard work in the past half a year - if you don't want to waste proficiency points, only this kind of persistent hard training can bring about an improvement in results. After all, many higher-level skills require these low-level skills as prerequisite skills before they can be strengthened and improved.

But even so, when Sean activated these three skills, he still used four proficiency points. In addition, in order to successfully capture the weapon from the Black Warrior, Sean also spent three proficiency points allocated. In terms of personal attributes, in fact, Sean still has only three proficiency points left unallocated.

But Sean doesn't regret it.

As the leader of the elite group in the guild, Sean has a very strong logic of his own in the principle of doing things.

[Charles' Sabre, Micro-Effect Enchantment (Bronze), Hardness 12, Sharpness 12, Piercing 10, Strength +3, Stamina +1]

[Item description: This is the sword given to General Charles by King Elder III of the Serian Kingdom on the eve of the North Cold Battle. This sword followed General Charles throughout his life, and was once regarded as a symbol of honor for General Charles' family. However, because of the infighting in the family of General Charles over inheritance rights, the sword was lost from then on. Now, although you are lucky enough to get this sword, the magic power on it has been lost too much, and it has long lost its prestige. 】

This sword is the fundamental reason why Sean will go to solve the Dark Knight. Otherwise, as a level 10 dungeon that was just for novice players to practice cooperation and had almost no difficulty at all, how could Sean be interested or even spend a lot of time and energy on it?

As a signed professional player, Sean has been working hard in "Miracle" for seven years. He knows a lot about many things in the game. Although many of them don't remember very clearly, but if they are emotional, they can still wake up those people. Sleeping memory. Like this saber, Sean remembers that it has a follow-up quest, but this saber will only drop when he kills the black warrior for the first time. The sword passed by, but at least this time he wouldn't.

However, judging from this action, Sean found a problem: that is, in the real world, these dungeons are not like games that can be repeatedly brushed, and any dungeon has only one chance to clear the level. In addition, the dungeon also has a birth time. Like this dungeon called "Wandering Darkness" in the game, it only appeared four months ago, and Sean once obtained this saber in order to I came to this village once five months ago, but the dungeon hadn't appeared yet. That's why the village head immediately sent someone to contact Sean after the villagers found out that the lord had not sent troops to encircle and suppress them.

But five months later, when Sean came here again, he was no longer alone.

Thinking of this, Sean walked to Cecilia's side and covered her with the quilt kicked off by Cecilia. Although Cecilia always looks like a young adult, and sometimes speaks very poisonous, but in fact, this little girl is only thirteen years old after all, and she still longs to be loved by others, and Sean never decides From the moment he took Cecilia on his adventure, he decided to take good care of this little guy.

And when he thought that he was likely to breed a super magical genius, Sean was excited.

Because no one knows Cecilia's personal attributes better than Sean!
