The Amber Sword

Act 62 The Reward of the Mission I

Elements are civilized.

Brando's feeling at that moment was like a fire igniting in a dark world of souls. Golden flames burned in his pupils at the same time. In his eyes, the world had changed. The crystallized trees that are gradually collapsing and disappearing into ashes, the paths in the woods, the rocks, and the snow all seem to be covered with a layer of silver lines. The lines constrain energy and matter downwards - the lines of law are intertwined, and in those blank and weak places, matter seems to be so fragile that it collapses at the touch of a touch.

He picked up a stone and pressed it gently somewhere. The stone turned into powder in his hand like moldy bread.

This is a world dominated by laws.

He has known this secret for a long time, but without the elements of enlightenment, it is difficult for a mortal to truly understand the true meaning of this sentence. It's like ordinary people cannot understand the truth of the world. Only when they cross that threshold - time, space, laws, energy, randomness, are all born in the fire and presented before their eyes. Only then can they understand that the essence of this world is the magic controlled by the law of tiamat, and that the complicated and complicated things are not actually as secretive as the world imagines.

Everything you see is formed by laws constraining magic power. This is Warnde's lowest level rule.

Brando squinted his eyes, and the feeling of power flowing quietly in his heart was exactly the same as in the previous life. He raised his hand, which was also covered with a faint line of law, but all these strange scenes gradually disappeared, and the world seemed to return to its original state in an instant.

And next, Brando saw his status panel begin to change:

It's hard for humans to do it, 20 years old.

Power system: element field (ego law), superior authority.

After the enlightenment elements, the power system no longer simply divides physics and spells, elements and melee combat. In addition to the self-law that pursues its own ultimate power, there are only two major systems of world law that explore the secrets of the rules like wizards and elementalists.

However, Brando was slightly startled when he saw an extra line of 'superior authority' appearing at the back. After the elements of enlightenment, what was marked on the power system was the most original power. He immediately thought that this might be the power of the planeswalker.

Then continue to look down.

The absolute power column has also disappeared. After entering the field of elements, power is closely related to laws, and the previous calculation method is no longer applicable. Then there is the description of the element itself. The original simple property description has now been expanded into a whole column:

Time and space——(In the eyes of the Hasar divine people,

Time and space themselves are concepts used to describe the state of existence of the world. If matter and energy did not exist, then time and space would collapse accordingly. But concepts often extend to the power of definition and imagination. It is the root of law and the key to existence——) Brando couldn't help being dumbfounded when he saw this sentence. Whether it is time or space, they are the highest-level manifestations of the elements, and they are called together with the wind element of St. Osol, the light element of Faenzan, the fire element of Gilt, and the power of the earth of Ellan Tower. It is the highest level element.

People often think that above the highest level element is the power of existence.

But I didn’t expect that further up, there are hybrid elements, called conceptual elements. Brando has always believed that his spatial elements constrain the space and define the state in the space, so he can have the effect of being in a certain category.

But now that I think about it, in the four-dimensional world, time and space originally exist as one.

Elemental power (4/4) is sure to win - 'Space is bound and managed by you'

As long as the line of law tends to be stable, the user can make the next attack appear at any coordinate in space.

Consumption: 50po (Power of Order) Stability - 'Space is the farthest distance between people. If you can't cross it, how can you hurt me? ——Sadin, King of Law Wizards’

The thread of law protects the user's armor and weapons. As long as the attack fails to penetrate the law, the armor and weapons are considered indestructible. Additionally, Stability grants the user an additional +2 Defense.

Consumption: Passive element passage - 'Time is my ally, your enemy'

As long as the line of law tends to be stable, the user's attacks can affect the enemy and cause it to age rapidly.

Consumption: 100po/s (per second) gap - 'You seem to be in the cracks of time, and its flow is always particularly slow relative to you'

The user's aging rate is slowed by half and their lifespan is doubled.

Consumption: Passive Elements Power of Order: 400/400 Four element abilities, one more than the normal situation where normal people have two active elements and one passive element when cultivating elements. In addition to the unchanged sure hit, there are two more attributes that can protect the armor and increase defense power. And ‘passage’ and ‘gap’ are both newly added because of the element of time.

The element of passage is basically useless for players in the game, but it can work wonders for NPCs. According to experienced players, this is the magic skill of PVE. The same goes for gaps. The lifespan of normal humans in Warnd is only about two hundred years. After the enlightenment factor, the lifespan will be increased by an additional half. However, the lifespan of the longest living human beings will generally not exceed four hundred years.

And the lifespan is doubled to eight hundred years, which is almost close to that of the Silver Elf. This attribute is almost worthless in the game, and Brando even doubts whether they exist, but here, it is undoubtedly one of the best elements.

Finally, the power of order was upgraded from 100/100 to 400/400, which is a full 50 more than the average player. Brando thought this might be an extra reward for the so-called conceptual elements.

He continued to look down, and his talent also underwent earth-shaking changes:

Bloodline Talent, Unyielding - (Level 3) Stubborn, ignoring all blows for fifteen minutes after receiving fatal damage.

(Element Bonus) After the effect ends, the state will be returned to the last state fifteen minutes ago. This ability can be activated once per day.

Self-healing, the body's recovery ability is increased to 6x.

(Elemental Bonus) Reduces the time to return to perfect condition in half.

Unyielding, elemental resistance +10, physical damage reduction increased by 10%.

(Element Bonus) Adds an additional 2 defenses.

Tenacity and physical strength can be used as all abilities in the first two stages (active, fatigue) as in the additional stages.

(Element Bonus) Physical energy consumption is reduced to half of the original value.

Destiny Talent, Fool - (Level 1) Fanaticism, selfless devotion is sometimes not a good thing - within half an hour of activating fanaticism. The character can gain an additional double increase in all attributes, and this ability can be activated twice per day.

Ancient people can learn skills with ancient attributes just like learning ordinary skills.

Talent of Destiny, Chosen One - (Level 1) Ancient King, followers gather under you out of worship, so they will not incur a morale penalty regardless of their race.

It can be seen that elements have a powerful bonus to bloodline talents. In fact, this is the main reason why the attributes of players after entering the element field are so different from those before the element field.

After entering the element field, the elements begin to strengthen the abilities on the status panel one by one. The element stage of enlightenment is the bloodline talent, the first professional skill, and the main attribute; the side of truth is the first destiny talent, the second professional skill, and the secondary attribute; the peak of law is the second destiny talent, the third professional skill, and the third attribute; At the extreme level, players will have a domain and once again strengthen their bloodline attributes, first professional skills and two attributes.

In the realm of saints, the elements will directly strengthen all attributes, all talents, the professional skills of the three professions and give the player the last law talent.

After reaching that level, looking at the existence below the golden realm, it is really like a god looking down at an ant. Further up, after the perfect body, there is another world.

However, even though he was prepared, Brando couldn't help but groan from the bottom of his heart when he saw the time and space elements strengthening the bloodline talent. Amber Sword has never been a game that advocates fairness and balance.

But it does take into account fairness. In the game, players only have one chance to be treated fairly - and that is at the starting line. Therefore, there is a saying that bloodline talent is the most fair talent.

But after that, the game no longer limits player development. The more effort you put in, the higher the reward will be. Attributes, skills, destiny talents and even the profession itself are all divided into strengths and weaknesses. This is a very realistic and cruel game. If it weren't for the high quality of the game itself, which was far superior to any other games of the time, it would have been buried under a sea of ​​criticism.

An obvious example, as Brando sees now. As a conceptual element, the space-time element itself has very powerful attributes, and the bonus it provides is at least 20 to 30 percent higher than that of ordinary elements.

Of course, Brando has never seen such an element even in the game.

conceptual elements.

What he has seen most before is just the highest level elements of several major elements, plus time and space, which are the powers that are said to be closest to the power of existence.

Then he continued browsing, and below were the properties. Because it was the first time he had civilized elements, he took it for granted that the time and space elements must have strengthened his main attribute first - Brando looked at his status bar with wide eyes and was suddenly startled.

[Strength] 310+49 (Equipment) +107 (Elite Template) [Dexterity] 240+17 (Equipment) +80 (Elite Template) [Physique] 670+42 (Equipment) +240 (Elite Template) [Element Enhancement]

[Intellect] 1.5+0.5 (Elite Template) [Will] 140+26 (Equipment) +32 (Elite Template) [Perception] 36+13 (Elite Template) [Bloodline] 44+17 (Elite Template) As soon as he saw this Attribute, I was immediately dumbfounded. Because in theory, as a warrior, the main attribute must be strength. But it was obvious that the time and space elements actually strengthened his physique for unknown reasons.

No wonder he felt a lot better since just now. At first he thought it was due to the enlightenment factor, but now it seems that is not the case at all. Your physical fitness has more than doubled. Can you not feel full of energy?

Brando suddenly went a little crazy. Why does he need physical fitness as a warrior? Warriors are not tanks in the game, but are output-type professions! Did this damn element strengthen his physique because he looked more like a knight, or did he think he actually had the potential M attribute?

If he was still in the game, he would definitely jump to call GM right now. But here, he could only change his expression for a long time, and finally he could only sigh helplessly.

What else could he do?

Calling Lady Martha to change him? Not to mention that Martha left Warnd long after the Azure Knight shattered the sky. Even if she was still here, she would probably only give him a bolt of lightning in response to his trivial call.

In this regard, Brando can only admit that he is unlucky. He was afraid that this damn element would take the initiative to strengthen something else for him, especially skills. Although there is no precedent for this in Amber Sword, if this thing goes crazy again and strengthens the scholar's skills, wouldn't he be killed headlong?

He looked down and breathed a sigh of relief.

The skill list has not been strengthened at all, but there is only a line of faint green system prompts:

‘You have obtained higher authority, do you want to start strengthening your skills? ’

This is exactly the same as the situation in the game. Although it is a bit strange, power has always been called authority in Amber Sword. The players also discussed this for a while, but in the end it was fruitless. Brando was not surprised and didn't bother to care.

He touched the light screen with his hand and confirmed: "Strengthen."

‘Which skill should be strengthened? ’

The professional skills that Brando can choose now are actually only four series: mercenary, elementalist, scholar and templar. However, as long as he had not lost his mind, he would not have chosen elementalist or scholar, so the multiple-choice question before him was actually a choice between two options.

mercenary?

Still a Templar. The medical concubine is fierce and fierce:

Brando fell silent.

His core skills such as Fenghou Jiuyao, Flash Sword, In-depth Analysis, Charge and Piercing Strike are all under the mercenary profession. If he had been placed before, he would definitely have chosen strengthening this profession as his main profession without hesitation.

But now there is a problem.

That is, the selection of time and space elements strengthened his physical attributes. You must know that all the skills in Amber Sword are closely related to the basic attributes. Although he can still choose to strengthen the second and third attributes after reaching the side of truth and the peak of law. But after entering the realm of saints, apart from the main attributes, other attributes are destined to be strengthened one less time.

The difference in this lack of strengthening becomes more obvious in the later stages, and now it is only doubled. After getting the silver body, I'm afraid it will be two or three times more aware. At that time, two or three times was enough to decide many things.

Should we focus on offense or defense?
