How did four humans die at the hands of a bunch of rats and spiders? A certain someone was also confused.
If this was real life, this kind of thing would definitely not happen. At most, they would be a little embarrassed. How could they die just like that?
But this was a game that followed the rules, and level 1 characters were noobs. The group of people did not understand the rules of the game and rushed into the warehouse without any lights. Not only were they at a disadvantage in the dark, but they were all blank and had no equipment. They could only rely on their fists.
Most importantly, this group of people did not have the self-awareness of role-playing. They did not think that they were actually level 1 characters. When they talked about their actions, they were full of extravagant words and all kinds of legendary skills.
And when they rolled the dice, a certain someone felt that these four guys were cursed. Even these low-level spiders could pass the poison test on them, and the four blank characters were directly hit.
In addition, Jermaine, who got the mage template, rushed to the front line and played with his character as a meat shield. Fen, who got the warrior template, was thinking about possible tactics in the dark and did not do anything at all. Li Ena was a character who used the druid class, but her skill bar was empty. She also had no chance. Another character, Ridan the Third, who got the female warrior template, was successfully ambushed by rats without knowing what to do. After the other companions died, he was surrounded by monsters and quickly followed in the footsteps of his companions.
In the midst of all kinds of negative judgments and disadvantages, the four martyrs successfully died a heroic death.
Okay. Perhaps it was too much to ask a group of people who had never played this kind of game and did not know what to do. But a certain someone could not help but complain, "Your series of choices are a disaster. When normal people go to a strange place, why don't you ask around and directly break into a warehouse with a locked door? A sorcerer fighting a monster in the dark with his bare hands? What are you thinking? At least remember what role you are playing now. You are just inexperienced adventurers. Even in the real world, you should think before you act, right? Then why don't you think about whether this will work in the world of the game? Or is it because this is a game that you look down on it? "
"No, I also act like this in real life. What's wrong with that? "The lectured Lich was somewhat dissatisfied and said, curling his lips. The elven sword dancer and the silver-bearded dwarf nodded in agreement. Only the young king looked at the two sides blankly.
… Well, it's no wonder these people don't feel good about it. Every single one of them was someone who could do whatever they wanted in the Maze World. How could they possibly understand the hardships of the weak?
"In short." A certain someone clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention. "Don't treat what you're about to do as a simple game, but another part of your life. You are weak there, but it is a novel world of course, there will be novel experiences. It was no different from reality. It was like you didn't know what would happen in the next second, whether it would rain later, or what you would encounter on this path. … "
Of course, of course, it of course, of course of of of course, of course of of of course. Of of course, of course, of course, of course of the road of course of Her of course.
"… of course! In short, please think carefully about how you are going to live in that different world. Of course, the most important thing is how to take risks and make your life colorful. Instead of looking at the same scenery every day, meeting the same people, and doing the same things every day. At least, in my world, you are free. "
"Free? That's a heavy sentence. Are you ready to bear it? "Finn smiled faintly, but said with a threatening tone.
A certain someone felt a chill down his spine and looked at the smiling Lich. Finn stretched out her hand and motioned for the next game to begin. Lin, puzzled, briefly retold the original opening, and then focused on the Candle Castle of the Faerun Continent and asked, "Adventurers, what are you going to do?"
"I will stand behind my adoptive father, pick up the hardcover book on the table, and launch a sneak attack on my adoptive father."
Fen's choice of action shocked everyone. Not only the few participants, even those who were watching the show and the guards who were in charge of protecting the young king were dumbfounded. She looked at the 'god' in front of her with an unfathomable smile and asked, "What, I can't do that?"
Lin, who had returned to normal, looked up the rule book he had written and said, "No, of course you can choose to do that. I need you to cast a sneak attack check. "Then, one minute later, the whole team would be wiped out …
"Wait a minute, how can a random adoptive father be a legendary figure?" Jermaine asked, puzzled.
"Didn't you listen to my background introduction? The Candle Castle is the place with the most books in the Faerun Continent. There are many scholars studying there, and the environment is relatively closed. In a world full of danger, it's normal for a force to be able to do that. "
"Well, even if it's normal, what does that level suppression mean? What is level? "Jermaine asked again. Then, a certain someone didn't know how to answer …
That's right, what is Level? How to explain this super basic setting? It's like air and water. Most people wouldn't even think about it.
After thinking for a while, Lin showed an unused level-1 character card and said, "Look, this is your character in the Faerun Continent. In reality, people will become stronger through training or actual combat. But how much stronger? Or if the change is actually worse, we don't know. We can only verify it in the next battle, and then the next, and the next. But characters that exist in this way can't be judged in such a vague way, right? … "
Lin pointed at the blank character card and the almost blank skill column. At the same time, he showed the chapters on level and skills in the rule book. "… So, the way to show the growth of these characters is to accumulate proficiency when using skills or certain techniques. After going through battles, they will accumulate experience. When the accumulation reaches a certain level, the character will be 'leveled up' to show their growth. So, the difference in level can be seen as the difference in strength in the Faerun Continent. Of course, the outcome of a battle isn't completely determined by the difference in level. There are other factors that will determine the outcome. "
"Oh, then how do we get experience?" Fen asked.
"Well, it's written in the rule book. After a battle, the amount of EXP gained would depend on the number of enemies defeated, and the amount of EXP gained would depend on the difficulty of the quests entrusted to him by others. Also, you can gain experience points from the experiences of some powerhouses. "
"You can defeat any kind of enemy?"
"Well, yes. As long as you start a battle and defeat the enemy, you can get experience. "
"Well then, let's start the next round." Fen's eyes were about to turn into crescents, and she couldn't wait for the next round to start.
Seeing this Lich come up with some weird idea, Lin looked at the others. Although they were also puzzled, they also looked forward to the next adventure. So, it was a similar opening, but this time, there was more description in the background introduction. "Adventurers, what will you do?"
"Can you observe the strength of others?" Fen asked first.
"Yes, you can. But you don't have the relevant skills, and you don't have enough experience. Simply put, you haven't trained your eyesight, so you can only make a rough judgment. "
"Then I'll observe my adoptive father's strength. Do I need to roll a die? "
"That won't be necessary. Because he's your family member who raised you. From his friends and his past adventures, you clearly know that he's a very powerful magician. He has a wide range of friends and is very knowledgeable. "
"Oh, very powerful." Fen looked excited as she thought of a wicked idea. She said, "Then I'll leave home and look for a lone passerby."
Well, he kind of felt that Fen was up to something. As a DM, there was nothing to stop. So, when Fen killed the first lone passerby, she received a bunch of eyes that almost popped out of their sockets.
At first, her companions were puzzled and even resisted such behavior. But after Fen's character leveled up and looted the spoils of war from the corpses, everyone became loyal followers of the Chaotic Evil Faction. They were like mad dogs, killing anyone they saw. Then, they were all killed by the guards of the Candlelight Castle …
"Why would the guards of the Candlelight Castle take the initiative to attack us?" Jermaine questioned in dissatisfaction.
"You're committing murder in broad daylight on the main road. Although at first, you picked some lone passers-by who looked easy to bully, but after killing them, you didn't hide the corpses. If this was in reality, do you think that this kind of thing wouldn't be discovered until all the people in the settlement were killed by you? You should also help. Even if you're doing bad things, you should use your brain, okay? "
The criticism was very useful. At least this group of participants learned something from it. Just like this for the whole night, a certain person who was a game host saw this group of people using all kinds of methods to get wiped out. But in the process, they did start to look up the rules book and familiarize themselves with the gameplay of this game.
Especially when they saw with their own eyes that they only spent a few minutes skimming through the rules book. After changing back to the profession that they were familiar with, they were able to take advantage of the attributes of these characters. All kinds of stealing, swindling, bluffing, dragging in dark alleys, and covering with cloth bags were done with great ease.
Even the young Elf King transformed into a wretched man and used the skills of the Druid profession to create a diversion and attract the attention of the NPCs. Then, there were all kinds of unscrupulous actions by the others. It made a certain person doubt himself. Did he make a bad game to teach children bad things?
