After logging off, Gu Fei suddenly felt a bit tired. With the amount of time Gu Fei spent playing the game every day, any normal person wouldn't find it tiring. It could be seen that Gu Fei had a very fulfilling day.
The constant pursuit on horseback, the intense battle after switching to Fire's Baptism had drained Gu Fei's mental energy several times more than usual. Now that he had left the game, he couldn't help but feel tired as soon as he relaxed a bit. Being an expert in the game was also very tiring! Gu Fei thought of Sword Ghoul and the others fighting day and night in the game. Otakus like them definitely couldn't compare to him. It must have been hard for them to play the game so hard every day.
After resting for a night, Gu Fei wasn't in a hurry to go online the next day. Instead, he casually browsed the official forums.
It couldn't be denied that Gu Fei was an expert in fighting, but he was still a noob in other areas. After all, he was still a newbie.
Fire's Baptism was an effective supplement to his attacks, and it also provided a good training environment for him. However, at a crucial moment, the occasional enchantment was a bit troublesome. Gu Fei wanted to see if there was a way to increase the enchantment to 100%. If that was the case, Gu Fei could be said to be a stable high-damage killer.
However, it was a pity that the current research on enchantments in the game was focused on the deceleration of frost damage or the numbness of lightning damage. As for fire enchantments, because melee classes were lacking in mana, it was better to choose poison instead of fire enchantments. The amount of poison damage depended on the equipment and had nothing to do with mana. Moreover, it could continuously reduce health. As long as the equipment wasn't too bad, it could easily exceed fire damage.
There was another important reason: enchantment damage had a prerequisite: it had to be a normal attack. When using a character's skills to attack, the enchantment on the weapon would automatically be frozen. Normal leveling didn't matter, but in a real difficult battle, such as PK or challenging a boss, skills were the key to victory. Because of this, enchantments that purely dealt damage like fire were even less valuable and were directly viewed as trash by players.
Of course, trash items wouldn't be researched. Gu Fei flipped through it but didn't find any useful information. He only knew that apart from weapons, rings, necklaces, and badges could also have a chance of having an enchantment attribute.
In addition to weapons, the equipment in the game was divided into head, body, belt, shoes, two rings, a necklace, and a badge. In total, there were nine parts.
Up until now, Gu Fei's two fingers and neck were still empty. It could be seen that the drop rate of accessories was relatively low. As for Gu Fei's straw hat and boots, they weren't too shabby. It was just that they weren't suitable for the Mage class, which was why they were ridiculed by the Han Family's young master.
After some research, Gu Fei felt that he could go and see if there were any Fire Magic accessories that he could buy. In addition, he really should change into a more approachable outfit that didn't have such a strong personality.
After reading these things, Gu Fei returned to the main page of the forum. He then discovered the most popular post on the entire forum: Cloud City Close Combat Mage: Ten Steps to Kill a Person, A Thousand Miles Invincible. When the matter was done, he brushed his clothes and left, hiding his identity and name.
Gu Fei's heart tightened, and he hurriedly clicked to take a look. Sure enough, this was the full report of Gu Fei's pursuit of Non-smiler in Cloud City yesterday.
The cause of the incident had been dug up by experienced gossipers with keen senses. But this wasn't the main point. The main point was the process of Non-smiler being killed ten times. All the information was compiled from eyewitnesses from all over the place. If Gu Fei, the person involved, was to comment on it, it was basically true.
The debate about the incident was mainly focused on two aspects.
The first was the moral aspect. This was a topic that had been the hottest topic since yesterday's incident on the forum. Gu Fei casually scanned through a few opinions and didn't think much of it. Regarding this matter, Gu Fei didn't feel the slightest bit guilty.
Non-smiler had lied to July first. After that, he had been lied to by Xi Xiaotian, a scammer enthusiast, on his own initiative. It had nothing to do with July. And now, in this game, Non-smiler had started to harass July again. This kind of lousy guy had coincidentally become Gu Fei's business partner. Gu Fei naturally had a clear conscience in killing him. These few posts on the forum weren't enough to affect Gu Fei's mental state at all.
After that, the discussion was about the technical aspect. A mage using close-range attacks to kill a Thief sounded like a fantasy no matter how one listened to it. So many players watching the live broadcast weren't in vain. One of the posts opened a portal and led everyone to a specialized post on researching Gu Fei's technical skills.
The technical post had Gu Fei's entire equipment set at the start. It was obvious that countless people had used appraisal on Gu Fei.
But soon, the next few posts went off-topic. Everyone started to discuss where "Eddie's Coat of Arms" came from. A single attribute + 6, a total of five attributes would add up to 30. This was currently the best equipment with additional attributes.
Gu Fei's heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, he had seen this post. Otherwise, "Eddie's Coat of Arms" would have been enough to tell everyone who the masked killer was. Based on the people he knew in the game, July and the other girls should have used appraisal on him. If they saw this post again, his identity would have been exposed.
But they probably wouldn't say anything. That was all Gu Fei could think of at the moment. If word got out … Gu Fei had to admit that it would be troublesome when he thought of the players who had chased him for several streets.
Gu Fei calmed himself down and continued to read. After a few posts, the post returned to the main topic and began to discuss Gu Fei's skills and tactics. Because of the information provided by the audience, Gu Fei's characteristics were obvious: Agility, magic damage. His high speed and magic damage allowed Gu Fei to instantly kill the Thief who had low HP.
Then, many experts began to analyze the character's potential. Everyone had their own opinions and argued endlessly. Gu Fei noticed a comment by a user called Strange Pupil.
This guy thought that Gu Fei's killing of Unsmiler was a coincidence. The Thief focused on strength and was suppressed by a mage who specialized in agility. At the same time, the Thief had low HP and was vulnerable to the mage's physical and magic damage. If the Thief had been a high HP bull or a faster character, the outcome would have been uncertain. Moreover, very few players wore Magic Defense Equipment at this stage of the game. If they did, then they would be able to greatly weaken the Magic Defense Skills that focused on enchantments.
Other than that, Strange Pupil also mentioned a detail that not many people cared about. Although Unsmiler had been killed a total of ten times, so far, the first time was when he was at his strongest state, level 30. No one had seen how he was killed; the second time was when he was at level 29, and the assassin was a Thief. After Unsmiler lost two levels, the mage started to attack. Did this mean that even when Unsmiler was at his peak, the mage wasn't so confident in killing him?
This analysis could be considered reasonable and well-founded. If it was done by an ordinary player, it would be completely reasonable. However, for Gu Fei, the mage had overlooked the fact that Gu Fei knew martial arts.
After all, Gu Fei had killed Unsmiler in two or three attacks. If one wasn't an expert, they wouldn't be able to see through his skills.
After reading all the replies, Gu Fei was quite disappointed. He had hoped that there would be a comprehensive analysis of his character in this post. In the end, like all such posts, it went from discussion, to arguments, to insults, and finally to nothing. Gu Fei still had to figure out how to use a mage to create a path that suited him.
After exiting the forum, Gu Fei logged into the game.
The first thing he did after going online was to remove Eddy's emblem. Currently, there was too much attention on his masked identity. What if someone on the street used identification on him? Wouldn't his identity be exposed immediately? Gu Fei quickly walked to the auction house, trying to buy a common outfit as soon as possible.
However, the auction house was a little strange today. Gu Fei couldn't do anything inside, and the few NPCs working there refused to talk to him. Gu Fei didn't know what was going on. He tried repeatedly and was extremely busy. Suddenly, someone behind him patted his shoulder. "What are you doing here?"
Gu Fei quickly turned around and saw Brother You. He had encountered an expert, so he quickly asked, "What are you doing here?"
Brother You stared at him, dumbfounded. "We were wondering why you were so crazy. So you don't know the rules of PK?"
"Why?" Gu Fei asked quickly.
Brother You explained, "Every time you kill a player in the game, you'll accumulate one PK point. At first, some NPCs will stop serving you, and you'll lose two levels. When your PK point reaches 10, all NPCs in the city will stop serving you, and you'll lose three levels. When your PK point reaches 20, NPC guards and patrols will chase after you, and you'll lose four levels if you die, and you'll lose two levels if they catch you. You'll also have to go to jail. When your PK point reaches 30, NPCs will kill you on the spot, and you'll lose five levels if you die. "
"Then what do I do now?" Gu Fei was dumbfounded.
"You should be below 20 points right now. You can turn yourself in, and you'll lose one PK point every hour you go to jail! Or you can just float outside, and you'll lose one PK point every two hours, "Brother You said.
"Who would choose to go to jail? It's just not being able to buy things. What's the big deal? "Gu Fei said.
Brother You nodded. "It seems like there's something even more important that you don't know?"
"What?"
"There's a type of mission in the game called Wanted Mission. It refreshes once a day, and the mission target is a player with PK point. It can be collected as an individual or as a mercenary group, and the reward is based on the PK point of the culprit. You were in the limelight yesterday, so you'll definitely be at the top of today's Wanted Mission List. "
Gu Fei was dumbfounded. He didn't expect a fight in the game to be so troublesome.
