With the official establishment of the party, Fangzheng also began the next step.
But for the others, it was a nightmare.
Asuna and Black Cat had long been accustomed to Fangzheng's special training, but for Lifa and the others who came later, this kind of special training that they had never heard of before made them complain incessantly. Especially Jia Baili. On the first day, she only lasted for one morning before saying that she wanted to quit the party and go home.
But Fangzheng naturally had a way to deal with this. He said that Jia Baili could leave, but she had to be refunded. That's right, 5,000 Kol!
Wait, why 5,000?
Because there was interest to be charged! Loan sharks were free!
Jia Baili's face turned pale when she heard this. Not only that, Fangzheng also told her that if Jia Baili stayed in the party, she would receive a fixed salary every month. Not only that, when they became a level 3 guild, they would be able to buy a guild base. At that time, Fangzheng would allow Jia Baili to choose the best room!
But if Jia Baili left, she would have to pay back the money … Well, it was 5,000 Kol now, but it would rise to 10,000 in a few days!
Faced with Fangzheng's strategy of attacking with both carrots and sticks, Jia Baili thought for a long time, but in the end, she surrendered and went to participate in the training with a sullen face.
Because there were enough people, Fangzheng's training also changed accordingly. The main task of Asuna, Youji, Aokiha, Lifa, and Ying Lili was to continue leveling up. After all, if there was not enough room for mistakes, they could only make up for it with HP. The higher the level, the more HP they had, and the easier it was to survive.
Everyone naturally understood this. Besides, leveling up in a party was much faster than leveling up alone. Not only that, but Fangzheng also began to carry out targeted training. That was the most important part of the combat system — switching!
Here, it was time to talk about some of the settings of the game itself.
At first, Fangzheng thought that the monsters in this game were no different from those in other online games, but after further confirmation, he was surprised to find one thing.
The monsters in this game had the ability to learn!
In other words, if a player encountered a monster and could not defeat it for a long time, or even was killed by it, then the monster would gradually learn the player's combat skills. In other words, players would gain experience when fighting monsters, and monsters would also gain experience when fighting players!
In the beginning, the small monsters might be silly and adorable. However, if they killed a few players in a row, the monster would transform into an Elite monster. This not only meant that its Health Points and the power of its skills would greatly increase, but it also meant that the monster would learn and imitate the players' fighting style!
Fuck, that guy called Kayaba Akihiko was planning to play us to death from the beginning.
After confirming this point, Fangzheng was shocked. This meant that if a large number of players died in front of the Boss, wouldn't that mean that the Boss would become stronger and stronger?
Wasn't this a death sentence?!
Of course, although it was indeed quite realistic …
But an AI was still an AI. After studying it thoroughly, Fangzheng found that these AIs had a weakness, and that was that their reaction speed would slow down when facing different enemies.
For example, if Fangzheng fought against a monster, the monster would gradually get used to Fangzheng's fighting skills when using a greatsword. However, if Fangzheng suddenly left the combat range, and Laistia attacked with a rapier, the monster would be stunned for a moment.
Huh? Who am I?
Where am I?
Where's the greatsword I fought just now?
Why is there a rapier user?
Even humans might not be able to react in time, let alone an AI. Therefore, if the AI switched during combat, the monster would hesitate for a moment, which meant that it would have to erase the experience it had learned from Fangzheng and start from the beginning again from the "rapier".
To some extent, this kind of switching was similar to a forced "interruption" skill, and it would also cause the enemy to fall into a daze and silence for a few seconds. If they could cooperate well, they could even switch continuously, causing the enemy to doubt life itself, and it was not impossible to defeat the boss without taking any damage.
Of course, this was only in theory. It was naturally impossible in reality, because monsters also needed time to react. That was because monsters also needed time to react. The longer it fought with the same opponent, the longer it would be in a daze. On the other hand, if you continuously switched between opponents, the AI's reaction speed would definitely be beyond your imagination.
In this regard, it would not be so realistic.
Therefore, Fangzheng was guiding the others in leveling up while letting them familiarize themselves with the rhythm of switching and cultivate tacit understanding. This was not an easy task. After all, ten people were neither too many nor too few, but it was quite a headache to practice against a group of monsters. For example …
"Jia Baili, you bumped into me again!"
"Shut up, you loser. Who told you to have no eyes on the back of your head?!"
"Get out of the way, Green Leaf, it's my turn!"
"Wait a minute, Miss Black Cat, I haven't done it yet … Ahhhh, help!!!"
In the beginning, when faced with Fangzheng's training, nearly everyone suffered a crushing defeat. Either their positioning was lacking, resulting in them bumping into each other, or they had miscalculated the timing. By the time they were ready, she would not be done, or they would forget to switch positions in the midst of their training.
Esther and Laistia were no exception. They had good teamwork with Fangzheng, but when Fangzheng asked them to work together, the two elves began to compete with each other.
Either Laistia killed the monster with a single slash when Esther rushed over, or Esther deliberately blocked Laistia's path to prevent her from switching …. Fangzheng shook his head, speechless.
Of course, this was only the beginning. As the days passed, the tacit understanding between them became better and better. After all, although they liked to play around, they knew that this was not an ordinary online game. It was not just a game, but also related to their lives. No matter how bored they were, they would not joke around with their lives.
Finally, on the 19th day after entering this world, Fangzheng and the others left the forest and swamp and arrived at the village below the castle ruins.
This also signified that they were about to embark on the final stage of conquering the First Floor Lord.
"I'll leave the rest to you."
Looking at the lively village in front of him, Fangzheng made a gesture.
"Go and accept the quests here, then tell me what the conditions are."
"Got it!"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the group dispersed and entered the village. This was a rare time for them to rest. After all, communicating with the NPCs in the village was better than frantically farming monsters in the wild. Although leveling up was important, the boredom brought about by frantically farming monsters also needed to be eliminated, right?
Fangzheng yawned as he watched the girls scatter happily like birds. Then, he leisurely walked into the village.
As Fangzheng and company were the fastest group of people, other than them, there were only a few NPC villagers in the village. According to the information Argo brought to Fangzheng, although many guilds had more members than Fangzheng's "Darkmoon Sword", because of this, they had to be more cautious. After all, the more people there were, the better the players would be. It was impossible to force every player to focus on leveling.
'What a headache …'
Fangzheng could not help but press his head. The Trial of Wisdom was indeed a Trial of Wisdom. Ever since he entered this game, Fangzheng found that he had been using his brain almost all the time, including analyzing the game's physical collision and damage models, as well as the way the game designers thought, and trying to dig out the hidden meaning and information from behind every quest.
In comparison, in other worlds, Fangzheng only needed to use the Prophecy Spell and "The End of the Book" to easily solve the problem. Perhaps this was the reason why the System had thrown him here.
"Mr. Fangzheng!"
At that moment, Fangzheng heard Ying Lili's voice.
