Part-time BOSS

Pinewood Village - Glade in the woods.

Blade flurry!

With both swords in hand, Murphy used the combat skills he had just learned against a wild boar.

The first stage is a staggered horizontal chop, the second stage is three consecutive chops, and the third stage is followed by an oblique downward chop.

Blood spattered wherever the sword edge passed. The poor wild boar was just a level five monster, killed on the spot by a set of combos.

After finishing the seven sword cuts, Mo Fei looked at the time and saw that it only took 2.2 seconds.

In contrast, the dragon-slaying giant sword's horizontal slashing speed is 1.2 seconds. In the time it takes to slash one sword, it can be used to swing four swords with the sword's flurry.

The two swords he is using now are the two blue one-handed swords revealed by the bandit leader yesterday - the Swift Blade. The thin and sharp blades form a strong contrast with the Dragon-Slaying Giant Sword.

Although the current stance output is far from as exaggerated as that of the Dragon-Slaying Great Sword, in the future if there is a top-quality one-handed weapon, it may not be impossible to catch up.

Of course, you can't just look at the damage. Against large enemies such as dragons and giants, a two-handed giant sword has a natural advantage. But against humanoid enemies, especially those agile enemies, the dragon-slaying giant sword is too cumbersome to attack. It's easy to dodge, and often even a few sword cuts can't even touch the edge.

In response to this problem, he added the 10 points of free attributes obtained from yesterday's upgrade to agility, which was enough to meet the attribute requirements for learning Blade Flurry. Unfortunately, Assassin's Steps required 30 points of agility to learn, so he had to wait for two more points. Let’s talk about it after leveling up. When the maneuverability is further improved, the combat effectiveness will definitely be further improved.

From here, it is not difficult to see the huge advantage that heroes have over adventurers. With 30 points of agility, a hero can save enough attribute points as long as he upgrades to level four. To switch to an adventurer, he needs a full level of 20.

Because of this, the professions of adventurers are all fixed. One path leads to the darkest, either agility or strength, or pure intelligence and magic, or spiritual magic. Very few people can practice both.

But this is not the case for heroes. It is normal to learn one skill at the same time, and you can cope with two skills at the same time. Various professional skills are matched together to form a variety of different routines and gameplay, which can be said to be a hundred flowers blooming.

The remaining extra attribute points can be added to the physical constitution to increase the blood volume.

Professions such as Magic Swordsman and Miracle Warrior, which have both physical and magic skills, can only be played successfully by heroes.

There are even people who have played the bucket game, and the overall points are average. Although the ultimate ability is not as good as that of specializing in one profession, they can use various skills of various professions, and they can fly well. It is also a kind of gameplay, but it is weak in the future. The upper limit of strength is relatively limited.

Murphy doesn’t plan to play Bucket, but he definitely needs to take concurrent training. At present, it seems that taking double breaks with strength and sensitivity is a good choice, which can ensure that his melee ability can enter the T0 echelon of melee heroes to the greatest extent. As for The shortcomings in spell abilities can be supplemented by the Dragon Feast skill.

After getting familiar with Blade Flurry, the next step is to practice the ‘Savage Roar’ skill.

Taking a deep breath, Murphy yelled - ah!

This roar was full of primitive wildness and shocking. Murphy felt his blood boiling, his whole body became excited, and his whole body seemed to have endless strength.

However, compared to his own feelings, Murphy believed more in the changes in the attribute panel. After looking at endurance and strength, the two attributes had increased by a full 30%.

Unfortunately, this effect only lasted for more than ten seconds before it began to decay, and disappeared completely after thirty seconds. In addition, using this skill requires mana, and his total mana is only 200 points, so it is not suitable for daily leveling. A permanent skill, but an explosive skill that should be used when desperately fighting for victory...

When Murphy was summarizing the newly learned skills, Knight Roland on the side expressed admiration, "His Royal Highness is really talented. He has mastered these two advanced combat skills so quickly. Such talent is really amazing." , I think it took me two months to learn cleave..."

Ratchidanan on the side had a hehe expression on his face.

Mo Fei smiled brightly. Sometimes the words these NPCs said inadvertently were quite humorous.

"Okay, Roland, stop saying flattery. You'll make me embarrassed. Let's go see what's going on at the construction site."

Before going offline last night, Murphy returned to his fiefdom, spent 3,000 gold coins, 1,000 wood, and 1,000 stones, and ordered the construction of a tavern. Calculating the time, it should be almost completed now.

When the three of them arrived at the center of the village, sure enough, a two-story tavern that also functioned as a hotel had risen from the ground.

Looking at the fantasy-adventure-style tavern in front of him, Mo Fei nodded with satisfaction. Not bad, not bad. There was finally an impressive building in this small shabby village.

He walked in and took a look. It was a standard tavern layout. The system also provided several NPCs as gifts, a bartender, a waitress, a chef, and an innkeeper.

It seems that it can be opened immediately.

Murphy walked up to the waitress and decided to test the abilities of these NPCs, "Give me a piece of hard bread."

"A total of 7 copper coins, thank you for your patronage."

"Huh? So expensive?"

Murphy didn't wonder why the lord of the village still had to spend money. What he wondered was why the price was one copper coin more expensive than Alterac's bread.

Don't underestimate this copper coin. Of course it is nothing to him, but for adventurers who have just entered the game, every copper coin is precious.

He bought another pot of dwarf spirits and a pot of Ellan cider, both of which were slightly more expensive than the ones in Alterac.

It seemed that it was not an accident. He studied it carefully and quickly discovered the problem.

It turned out to be because of the business tax rate.

The higher the commercial tax rate in the territory, the higher the price. For example, this piece of bread costs five copper coins. If the tax rate is 0, it is sold at the original price. Alterac's tax rate is 20%, so it costs six copper coins. Kimura's tax rate is as high as 40%, and the selling price will naturally increase by 40%, which is 7 copper coins per loaf.

Whether it is commercial tax or agricultural tax, they can both generate income for the lord. If you can own a large and prosperous city, preferably one close to a popular leveling area, you can make a lot of money just by collecting commercial tax every month. Manboman, it is said that there are players who are good at management and can earn more than one million per month by managing their territories.

Of course, it’s hard to tell whether this is true or false.

Murphy doesn't expect to collect much commercial tax in the early stage. Attracting adventurers to be born here is the key.

He directly lowered the commercial tax to 0%, which makes prices even cheaper than in Alterac. This must be good news for adventurers.

He still has a lot of resources in his hand, but Mo Fei is not in a hurry to continue building more buildings. The resources can be robbed from the bandits, but the gold coins cannot. A tavern only costs 30,000 yuan. If you have money, you can't waste it like this. ah.

Now we just wait for more and more adventurers, and then we can use the adventurers to operate the construction of the village.

One day later——

Murphy stood in the small square of the village, looking at the empty surroundings with a confused look on his face. Where is the promised fourth natural disaster and the promised army of adventurers? Why is there no one?

By the way, the Novice Village function has been turned on, right?

To make sure, Murphy went to the village hall to double check.

That's right! Songmu Village (Novice Village).

The suffix of Novice Village is clearly marked on the back of the territory.

Could it be that the remote mountains and harsh waters of the Alterac Kingdom fail to attract adventurers?

After thinking about it, Murphy decided to ask the village chief.

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Village Chief, are there any adventurers showing up today?"

Goodman (Matsumu Village Chief): "Yes, yes, Your Highness, many adventurers appeared in the village yesterday afternoon, and some even asked me to take over tasks, but at night, they all disappeared. It didn’t show up again today.”

Murphy frowned after hearing this. So the Novice Village function worked, but why did it all disappear at the end of the day?

No, you have to ask someone.

As he thought, he left the village hall and started searching everywhere.
