The next morning, after breakfast, Mu Zixian went to work. Wang Yu was not in a hurry to enter the game. Instead, he logged into the official website to check on the updates.
This was also a habit that Wang Yu had developed since he was young. Before doing anything, he had to understand the situation in detail. Since he had the intention to develop in the game, he had to treat himself as a professional gamer.
The new expansion pack was called Calamity's Descent. The gist of the expansion pack was that the power of darkness had engulfed the reborn continent. All living creatures outside the main human cities had been demonized. Various job classes were required to search for the source of darkness and so on … It was a rather clichéd but everlasting theme for the game.
The game opened up the Main City System. Due to the large capacity of the system, the Beginner Village was divided into more than 300 Main Cities. These 300 Main Cities were like the server in traditional games.
After Level 10, players of any class could change their class in the main city. The class branches would also begin at Level 10.
Warriors were divided into two categories: Shield Warriors with strong defense and Weapon Warriors who pursued attack output.
Mages were divided into two categories: Ice Mages who focused on control, and Lightning Mages who focused on attack.
Thieves were divided into two categories: Assassins who dealt damage and Godly Thieves who picked locks.
Priests were divided into: Light Priests who majored in support, and Dark Warlocks who majored in corruption and darkness.
Knights were divided into two categories: Guardian Knights for defense and Retribution Knights for offense.
Archers were divided into two groups: Lurkers who specialized in traps and Marksmen who specialized in attack.
Grandmasters of Combat were divided into Strikers who focused on physical attacks and Qi Masters who focused on magical attacks.
Other than the Grandmaster of Combat, which was still miserable, all professions would obtain the corresponding Weapon Mastery and Armor Mastery.
After the Class Advancement, players could redistribute their Attribute Points according to their Class Advancement.
Every class system would have a unique hidden class. As for the specific method to obtain it, it would take time to figure it out.
The system was divided into five modes: Normal, Elite, Abyss, Nightmare, and Hell.
[Open Leaderboards: Players who are LV10 and above can look up the World Expert Rankings.]
These updates were similar to traditional keyboard games. Normal players didn't need to know about them at all and could go to the official website to research. However, as a newbie, Wang Yu still needed to understand them.
When he logged on again, Wang Yu appeared in front of the village chief.
After the brief conversation with the village chief, Wang Yu felt the scene flash, and he arrived in a majestic main city.
Since the background of the game was about swords and magic, the main city was built in the European medieval style, which was very simple and elegant.
The entire main city was mainly reddish-brown, which made it look very desolate.
System Notification: Discovered "Yu Huicheng", obtained 1000 experience.
So this main city was called Yu Huicheng. Looking out of the city, there was indeed a sunset hanging in the western sky.
The players were very diligent. While Wang Yu was browsing the official website, many players had already reached Level 10 and changed their class.
In Afterglow City, groups of twos and threes of players were walking out of the city.
What Wang Yu wanted to do now was to change his class.
Following the directions on the map, Wang Yu arrived at the place where the Grandmaster of Combat class advancement was located — the dojo.
As soon as Wang Yu stepped into the dojo, the NPC's professional voice rang out, "Hello, Hero. Are you here to change your class?"
"Yes! I'm here to change my class! "Wang Yu replied.
"Please select your class branch!" the NPC Pugilist said.
"This …" Wang Yu hesitated and said, "Striker!"
Although Wang Yu liked both classes, he felt that he was more similar to a Striker.
The NPC asked, "Honorable Hero, I can see that you have an extraordinary background. Are you sure you want to give up greater power and change your class to a Striker?"
"Huh …?" With the NPC's reminder, Wang Yu suddenly remembered that he still had a class advancement quest — the second round of the Heart of a Warrior: The Path of Legacy. Change to the hidden class, Martial Artist. Legacy Token 1/1.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu quickly denied it. He then took out the Legacy Token from his bag and said, "I want to change my class to a Martial Artist!"
Seeing the token in Wang Yu's hand, the NPC's eyes revealed a look of disbelief. He said in surprise, "No wonder I felt that you have a strong power on you. So you are a Martial Artist Inheritor! You should know that the real Martial Artist is — "
Wang Yu interrupted, "Then can I change my class?"
"Honorable Hero, forgive my incompetence, but Martial Artists are too strong. I know nothing about their power."
"So you can't?" Wang Yu was speechless. This NPC said so much nonsense, but he still couldn't change his class.
"Yes, Hero!" The NPC nodded, without a hint of shame on his face.
"Sigh …" Wang Yu sighed and turned to walk out of the dojo. When he reached the door, Wang Yu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Then who should I look for to change my class?"
The NPC said, "Central Street's Hermit can guide you through the trial!"
"F * ck! I knew it! " Wang Yu cursed in her heart. It was said that designers were shameless. This guy was indeed shameless to a certain extent. Luckily, she had asked him about it. Otherwise, who knew when she would be able to change her job.
"Thanks!"
Wang Yu cupped his fists at the NPC, opened the map, and walked to Central Street.
Players were busy leveling up, so Central Street was very quiet. Other than the seemingly idle NPCs, there was almost no one else.
"Hermit, Hermit …" Wang Yu walked around Central Street three times, and finally found the so-called Hermit in a dirty alley.
Hermit's appearance was not very good. He had messy hair, a short and hunched body, and a tattered felt hat on his head. He was hugging a wine gourd, sleeping soundly in the alley.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yu began to sweat.
Fighters were already very pitiful. They created a hidden class, but their master was like this. How much hatred did the designer have for Fighters?
"Hello, excuse me. Are you Hermit?"
Wang Yu walked over and patted Hermit's shoulder.
Half drunk and half awake, Hermit opened one eye, glanced at Wang Yu, and let out a drunken burp. He mumbled, "Go buy me a bottle of wine first …"
This NPC was really something. He had to buy him a bottle of wine just to talk to him …
"He's already like this, and he's still drinking!" Wang Yu cursed in his heart.
Even so, Wang Yu knew that this could be the so-called plot. He had no choice but to turn around and walk back to the tavern.
Not long after, Wang Yu ran back with a bottle of wine.
When they were still quite a distance away from the Hermit, the old man suddenly sat up, raised his big red nose, and shouted, "I smell the fragrance of wine."
"… Yes, the wine you wanted!" Wang Yu bent down and respectfully handed the bottle to Hermit.
This wine cost one gold coin per bottle, and Wang Yu's understanding of the game's scams increased by another level.
Hermit accepted the wine with a smile and gulped it down. His eyes began to shine.
After finishing a bottle of wine, Hermit was greatly refreshed. He blushed and said, "Young man, why are you looking for me?"
Finally, the main topic! Wang Yu wiped his sweat and said, "I want to change my class to Martial Arts Scholar!"
Hermit raised his eyebrows and said in disdain, "Oh? Just you? Who gave you the courage? "
"F * ck, a gold coin has been fed to a dog!" Being looked down upon by an NPC, Wang Yu was depressed. He then took out the Legacy Token and said, "This is the Legacy Token!"
Hermit saw the token and said in surprise, "Oh? You actually got this … Alright, as long as you pass my trial, you can change your class to Martial Arts Scholar! "
Wang Yu asked subconsciously, "What trial?"
Hermit did not say anything. With a wave of his hand, Wang Yu was brought into another space, which was actually a dungeon.
The space was not too big. It was just a sparring ring. Hermit swept away his previous dispiritedness and stood on the ring. He said in a deep and dignified manner, "It seems that you know nothing about true strength. Come, let me see your fighting style!"
"You mean I'll fight you?"
"That's right!" Hermit nodded.
"This is the trial. It's too easy!" Wang Yu said with a smile.
When it came to fighting, Wang Yu had never been afraid of anyone. Even in the game, how strong could an NPC be?
When Hermit heard this, he smiled faintly and attacked with extreme speed.
Seeing Hermit's speed, Wang Yu was shocked. He had forgotten that he was limited by his attributes in the game. If his body could keep up with his eyes in real life, Wang Yu naturally would not feel any pressure. But in the game, Wang Yu was only Level 13. Against a mentor NPC like Hermit, he was powerless.
Faced with this situation, Wang Yu naturally could not retreat. Therefore, he did not retreat. Instead, he advanced. He wanted to fight Hermit until both of them were injured.
Wang Yu dodged Hermit's attack with all his might. In an instant, he extended two fingers and pierced Hermit's eyes. Hermit was so shocked that he hurriedly retreated. Obviously, he was not willing to accept the result of both of them being injured.
Good chance!
Wang Yu seized the opportunity and dashed forward, engaging in close-range combat.
At the end of the day, Hermit was an NPC, a character designed by the designer. The reason why he was strong was because of his attributes.
Wang Yu was a martial arts genius. When he was in his teens, he was already invincible in China's martial arts circle. Even the designer was also a martial arts practitioner. Compared to an expert like Wang Yu, there was no telling how much of a difference there was.
For a moment, Hermit was actually suppressed by Wang Yu's moves. Hermit was continuously attacked and was forced to retreat. A series of damage numbers appeared above his head.
Seeing that he was about to be knocked off the ring, Hermit began to sweat. Finally, he could not hold on any longer and shouted, "Retreat!!"
As he shouted, a golden light flashed on Hermit's body. The golden light of Tyrant Armor pushed Wang Yu more than ten meters away.
Wang Yu did a backflip and landed steadily on the ground.
"You brat, you're really ruthless!!" Hermit looked at Wang Yu and said while panting.
As the highest level NPC, the trial system only allowed Hermit to use 15% of his strength. Even so, his attributes were still higher than a level 40 player.
Therefore, this trial was not very strict. The system settings stated that no matter what method was used, even if it was kiting with a bow and arrow (Grandmasters of Combat could use weapons of all professions), as long as one could reduce one-tenth of Hermit's HP, one could pass.
Who knew that Wang Yu would be so daring as to choose to face Hermit head-on. Not only that, he almost beat Hermit to death. If not for Hermit's sudden recovery and Tyrant Armor at the critical moment, he might have become the first mentor in Rebirth to be beaten to death by a player.
Wang Yu chuckled and asked, "Can I pass?"
"Pass! Pass! "Hermit waved his hand helplessly. The dungeon disappeared and the two returned to the alley.
At the same time, the system's voice sounded again.
[System Notification: Congratulations on completing the second round of "Warrior's Heart": Road of Legacy. Obtained 100,000 EXP, 200 Reputation, obtained hidden profession "Martial Arts Scholar."
With a flash of golden light, a large amount of EXP allowed Wang Yu to rise to level 14. (After level 8, the calculation of leveling up EXP became the normal 10% increment for each level.)
