Chapter 23: First Arrival in the Snowy City (Asking for Recommendations)

A second prompt pops up when a military member is selected.

"Players are asked to choose either offensive or defensive mode for testing."

After thinking about it, Yun Xiaohan felt that he had 2 offensive skills now, and most of the skills were defensive, and he was afraid that the test results would not be too good with the offensive mode, so he chose the defensive mode.

The tester teleports Yun Xiaohan to a separate space to start the test. Dying in a separate space doesn't cost any experience, and killing monsters doesn't have any experience to gain.

Before the test begins, there is a brief note: the player must protect the survival of the Imperial High Mage behind them, and the death of either the player or the High Mage will cause the test to fail. The High Mage will perform a wide area attack every 30 seconds.

Then Yun Xiaohan saw that there was an extra timer bar in the upper left, and the title of the timer bar was the remaining time of the first wave of enemies.

This mode is similar to the usual tower defense games.

The first three waves of enemies Yun Xiaohan were very easy to deal with, the enemy was very weak, and basically could not break the defense, among which the female mage made a large-scale attack, and its attack range can almost be said to be a full map, and the firepower is extremely strong, and the middle one is immediately seconds.

After a few waves of monsters, Yun Xiaohan's output was not enough, and it was impossible to clear all the enemies before the female mage was powerful, and the situation slowly evolved into Yun Xiaohan's resistance to delay time, and the female mage cleared the monsters.

When it reached the 8th wave, as the enemy's attack power continued to increase, Yun Xiaohan was also a little unable to bear it, so he began to pull the enemy to run to reduce the damage received.

However, he soon discovered that this trick was not so good, and as long as he could not attack Yun Xiaohan for a while, the enemy would give up chasing him and attack the female mage instead.

Although the female mage's attack was high, her defense was low, and Yun Xiaohan had to run back and pull the monster back again.

After that, he tried to run slower again, and after a while let the enemy hit twice, but soon found that it was easy to miss one or two by mistake, and the female mage could not recover health, and after a few mistakes, the female mage's HP dropped by half.

In desperation, Yun Xiaohan had no choice but to open a strong physique, then activate the defensive posture, and then resist hard in front of the female mage.

In this way, he carried a few more waves, and by the 12th wave of enemies, the effect of the strong physique had disappeared, and Yun Xiaohan could only eat life spores to continue to fight monsters.

After barely carrying 14 waves by **, Yun Xiaohan's blood bar is only about 25% left, and he can only use the strategy of running with the monster, as for the female mage, she can't take care of being beaten by the monster a few times, and it is a while to be able to drag it out.

After the 15th wave of thrilling resistance, Yun Xiaohan and the female mage were only left with bloody skin, and as soon as the 16th wave of monsters came out, Yun Xiaohan was quickly killed, and the test ended here.

Yun Xiaohan felt that this result should be very good, but he didn't have a comparison partner.

After some nonsense, the tester awarded Yun Xiaohan the rank of knight and soldier, and entered his results into the national vocational test record list, which players can check from the list system.

In addition, the tester also said that this was the best result he had ever seen, but this was complete nonsense, because there was only one tester on the record list.

The knight rank allows Yun Xiaohan to receive 10% of the current level experience every day, level *1.5 copper coins, and 50 merit points per week.

The other two perks of the Knight Rank are that the player can buy horses and rent stables at the City Stud, as well as buy a small estate. Of course, horses are quite expensive, and with Yun Xiaohan's current economic level, he can't even afford to buy the cheapest horses, let alone real estate.

After completing the National Occupation Test, Yun Xiaohan can finally leave the Novice Village through the Teleporter.

Teleported to Snow City, Yun Xiaohan followed the guide mission to the Snow City Executive.

"Knights of the Cloud Owl, welcome to Snow City, as the Central Empire and the Business Alliance are at war, please be careful if you need to travel west. Of course, as a soldier, you can also take on some missions from Commander Murta to join the war. The executive said.

These words should be based on Yun Xiaohan's national occupation, if his highest-ranking profession is not a soldier but other professions, it is estimated that the rhetoric will be different.

The executive then explains the origin of the war and plays a short animation of the plot.

From the animation and the voice acting of the executive, Yun Xiaohan finally understands the cause of this war: because he coveted the prosperous economy of the commercial alliance and gained more access to the sea, His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Empire brazenly launched this invasion.

In order to limit the further expansion of the Central Empire's power, the Northern Empire also declared war on the Central Empire. The other four countries were still neutral with the Central Empire for the time being.

Seeing this, Yun Xiaohan thought to himself: "Sure enough, it is the strongest country in the background of the game, and the game is really domineering at the beginning of the game, but I like it." ”

After completing the main plot, Yun Xiaohan begins to visit the entire snowy city, where the trade hall and the adventurer's guild are the places where merchants and adventurers pick up their quests, respectively. Yun Xiaohan can also take on related tasks, but the level of these tasks depends on the rank of the class.

Since Yun Xiaohan's merchant and adventurer ranks at this time were all civilian ranks, he could naturally only take on the lowest-grade tasks. It's basically tasks such as finding people, finding things, and buying props on behalf of others, and the pay is very low.

Yun Xiaohan still intends to focus on developing military ranks, so he has not taken on the task of taking on other countries' professions.

Later, he went to the Snowman City Military Headquarters, found Commander Murta, and took 5 faction missions from him. Most of these missions require killing enemy faction targets or uprooting enemy strongholds, and the rewards are quite good.

I also found the military payer next to me to receive today's salary, and Yun Xiaohan left the military headquarters.

Then he took on several quests in multiple NPCs in Snowman City, and I have to say that after coming to the regular city, the number of quests he can take has greatly increased.

In fact, there are far more tasks than that, because at this stage, there is only a relationship between Yun Xiaohan and a level 10 player, and tasks such as competing tasks and invading hostile camps cannot be accepted, otherwise there will be a lot more tasks.

In the end, Yun Xiaohan came to the auction house in Xueman City, and hung the [Agility Strike] with the highest value he can set at the moment: the sky-high price of 1 gold (cash * 100, this cash is the sum of the cash in the pocket and the cash in the warehouse, and only the first number is calculated), and a comment on the auction goods was added at the end: This skill is exchanged for a 2nd level shield battle or a mage-type general skill, and I can add money to a good skill.

The auction house in "Choice" is different from the auction house in the previous game, if the transaction is not successful, there is no handling fee, but if it is successful, a handling fee of 5% of the transaction turnover will be charged.

An item can be listed on the auction house for 4 days, and if the transaction fails for 4 days, the same item cannot be auctioned again for the next 3 days.

Naturally, no one can have a Tier 2 General Skill now, but it will be available when more and more players reach Level 10.

After hanging up the goods, a full-server system prompt also popped up: "Some players have used the auction house to auction items for the first time, and the auction house system of this server is officially opened, and all players can purchase and auction through the auction menu in the system." ”

Although the auction house system has been fully opened, players can only buy, not sell, and no one can afford to buy it. In a short period of time, only Yun Xiaohan's [Agility Strike] item was still hanging on it, which could be said to be extremely conspicuous.

At the same time, this also made enough advertisements for Yun Xiaohan and his [Agile Strike].
