Chapter 280 Death Mine
Xu Gu looked at the interface in front of him in surprise.
He had always thought that the game was over after choosing a profession, but he didn't expect that each profession also had talent options.
If all nine professions have talents, wouldn't there be countless branches that can be derived?
The most important thing.
This was the first time he had heard of protective and healing talents.
Because in MMO games so far, all professions have been of the output type, and I have never heard of a profession that is specifically responsible for fighting monsters or restoring people's health.
The new career orientation opened up a new world for him.
"So, this is the new career structure mentioned before?" The roommate said in surprise in the team.
Mage: "That's about right. I just figured it out as well, but I haven't found where to learn these skills yet."
"Then there must be an NPC like a training instructor!"
Upon learning that his profession could make him more resilient, Xu Gu immediately became interested.
The same goes for my roommate. As a priest, he can heal people, which is equivalent to controlling other people's life and death.
This feeling... seems pretty good?
Moreover, this way, they will be more efficient in leveling and will no longer have to run around being hit by monsters.
In excitement.
The three of them did not stay any longer.
Continue along the road to the mission location.
Finally, after a few minutes, we saw a huge city gate under a towering city wall in the distance, and guards guarding on both sides of the gate.
The degree of its magnificence is many times greater than that of Shanjin Town.
There is even a sense of oppression coming towards you.
“It’s really the main city!”
"Is this Stormwind City?"
“It seems to have appeared in the promotional video!”
Xu, Gu and the other two exclaimed in amazement, and kept approaching the city gate like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Looking through the city gate, you can see the giant statues standing inside and a stone avenue spanning the moat.
And just as they passed the guards and stepped into the city.
The exciting and majestic symphony suddenly sounded, coupled with the magnificent scene, it made their scalps numb, as if their souls were leaving their bodies, and they stood still.
I don't know why.
The tragic scene in the final battle in the propaganda film where the military leader shouted the four words "For the Alliance" suddenly emerged in my mind.
“This background !”
"It gives me goosebumps!"
This time, they were truly shocked by the background music of this game.
Different from the small bridges and flowing water in other games.
The background music of this "World of Warcraft" is almost all majestic symphony music, and even a layman can tell that it is performed by a top orchestra.
Coupled with the grand scenes in the game, the visual expressiveness is brought to the extreme, bringing a double visual and auditory impact to players!
Big production!
This is definitely a big production!
"Damn, this is what a main city looks like."
Xu Gu cursed loudly, gradually came back to his senses from the shock, and continued to control the character to enter the city.
The Stormwind City map that was originally covered was also unlocked, and their current location can be checked on the map.
But as soon as they opened the map, they were dumbfounded.
The entire Stormwind City, the trade district, the mage district, the old town, the dwarf district, the port...
The districts are close to each other, and the streets and buildings inside are so intricate and complex that it is dizzying to look at.
big!
Too big!
This Stormwind City is much larger than they had imagined, and it would take a long time to explore it completely just by walking.
"It would be nice to have a mount. This game will have mounts, right?" my roommate couldn't help but say.
"There should be. Aren't there people riding horses and wolves in the promotional videos?"
"How about we split up and report any new findings to the team."
After some discussion, the three members of the team split into three directions and wandered around Stormwind City.
Xu Gu was running around all the time. Whenever he saw a building, he would go in and take a look around. Whenever he saw a mission, he would immediately accept it.
Soon he came to a place with a blue wing logo.
"Shit! I found the teleportation point!"
A scream rang out in the dormitory.
The roommates who were immersed in their own upgrade journey turned around, stood up and gathered together.
"where?"
"Where is the teleport point?"
"Can I teleport to another map?"
The transmission problem has always been their main concern.
After all, different races were born in different places, so if they wanted to level up together, they had to go to the other party's area. With just their two legs, they might not be able to reach the area even if they ran to pieces.
Some are even separated by a sea.
You can't just swim over there, right?
"It doesn't seem to be called a teleportation point, it should be a flight point."
Xu Gu reacted and looked at the NPC function that he had accidentally clicked on.
The NPC is standing between the two griffins. When you click it, a griffin's flight route map will appear. Basically, there is a flight point with a wing symbol in every map.
However, except for the flight point in Stormwind City, the other flight points are gray, as if they have not been unlocked yet.
"Flight point? Don't we have to explore there before we can unlock it?" my roommate couldn't help but guess.
"It should be." Xu Gu nodded, "When I came here just now, there was a green exclamation mark. I clicked it to unlock it."
"That's fine. Just unlock it when you pass by on a mission, and it will be convenient for you to travel later."
The roommates said with shining eyes.
Because they found that the vehicle gameplay in this game also appeared in the previous promotional video.
Ride a griffin and fly across the map.
This is quite fresh.
Obviously.
This game is all about fitting the background, and nothing outside of the world view will appear.
It seems that if they want to team up together, they will have to wait for a while.
"Huh? What is this? A subway?"
However, unexpectedly, the roommate who played the Dwarf Hunter made a puzzled sound, which attracted their attention again.
I saw that the guy had arrived at the dwarf main city [Ironforge] at some point and was wandering around in a high-tech underground platform.
The platform looked like a real subway station, and there were even two mine cars parked there.
"ah??"
Xu Gu and others were stunned, looking at the strange scene in astonishment.
They knew that the dwarves in this world were engaged in technological research, but they did not expect that they even had such a thing.
Surprised, the dwarf roommate walked onto one of the subways that had just stopped and looked around.
And then not long after.
The parked subway started to move slowly, and the scene in front of his eyes also flashed by quickly.
"Oh my god! It happened! This subway can actually be ridden!"
The dwarf roommate was so excited that he started shouting.
Xu Gu and the others were amazed, lamenting that the rich content of this game had far exceeded their imagination.
It’s like there are surprises everywhere.
What shocked them even more was...
When the subway stopped and the dwarf roommate left the platform and came to the ground, a familiar scene suddenly came into view.
"Isn't this Stormwind City?!"
"Old Jiang, you came to Stormwind City?"
Xu and Gu, who were in Stormwind City, spoke almost at the same time and recognized at a glance that Lao Jiang was in Stormwind City.
Jiang himself was completely caught off guard.
I spent so much time looking for the map to teleport but couldn't find it. Instead, I ended up in the main city of the Alliance by accident.
That is to say.
The main cities of the dwarves and humans are connected to each other via subways?
"What a great design! Lao Gu, please show it to me!" Lao Jiang quickly turned around and shouted.
Xu Gu controlled the character to run to the dwarf city area, and sure enough, he saw a dwarf hunter with a bow and arrow standing outside the subway entrance, and immediately invited him to join the team.
The original team of three people was expanded to four people.
"Haha, this way we can level up together. I really like this game more and more."
"Indeed, I haven't come across such an interesting game in a long time."
"If I were asked to go back and play Oracle and Swordsman now , I probably wouldn't be able to play them anymore."
originally.
At the beginning.
They just come to play this game with a try-it-out mentality, and then decide which one to invest in.
But now.
However, they were gradually attracted to World of Warcraft and felt its uniqueness.
Because in this game, they really have a sense of adventure and upgrade.
Take your character to learn about the local customs and practices of each place, discover new things, and meet adventurers of all kinds and races.
This is something that no other MMO game has!
The few people who were excited to see the prey naturally did not waste any more time and continued to explore the main city.
soon.
They found training instructors to learn skills for each profession, places to sell mounts, and various new and interesting features.
Especially Lao Jiang who is a hunter.
After seeing that hunters at level 10 can catch pets, I couldn’t move on anymore. I swore that I must reach level 10 today and catch a cool pet!
The other three naturally had no objection to this.
After getting familiar with the main city, leave immediately and go to the outside town of Shinjin to continue completing tasks, killing monsters and leveling up.
Make money, learn skills and buy mounts.
…
…
In a blink of an eye.
Most of the day passed.
"Quick! Feed me! I can't bear it anymore!"
"No more mana, kite!"
"Old Jiang, don't just shoot one. I haven't attracted enough hatred yet!"
"Mage, it's coming towards you, run!"
In a mine in a map called [Western Wilderness], Xu Gu and others were shouting and screaming, being chased up and down by several ogre monsters.
It took several minutes.
Finally, all the monsters were dealt with.
One by one, they were reduced to low health.
However, there was no trace of frustration in Xu Gu's eyes, but rather excitement.
"It really works! After choosing the protection talent, I became much more tanky. With treatment, I can take on three monsters at a time!"
"It's the same on our side. With your taunt skill to attract aggro, it's safer to output. You can cast the bar without worry."
"Haha, isn't it because of my healing skills that you guys are staying alive? I feel like the priest profession will be very popular in the future!"
At this time, they have all reached level 10, learned new skills, and gradually revealed the characteristics of each profession.
At the beginning.
Xu Gu and his roommates were still a little worried.
A paladin who sacrifices output capacity to enhance defense and a priest who focuses on healing will appear to be very useless.
After all, this is the first time they have come into contact with this kind of career positioning gameplay.
But as the team upgraded, they discovered the ingenuity of this design.
The Paladin with tank functions is undoubtedly the leader of the entire team.
It can block most of the damage from monsters for teammates and create a good output environment. They no longer have to be chased around by monsters or be killed by monsters halfway through casting spells.
As for the priest with healing function, it is related to the lifeblood of the entire team. He ensures the survival of teammates, enables them to have stronger endurance and challenge more powerful monsters.
"This is teamwork. It's not like other games where everyone does their own damage and competes to see who can do more damage."
Xu Gu exclaimed, liking this tank positioning very much.
Because every time I pull a monster, I feel like I am the only one who can stop it.
It was as if the safety of the entire team was in his hands, building a defensive barrier for his teammates.
"I feel like with a little more practice, I should be able to pull 4 monsters at a time."
The mage said this as he sat down to restore his mana, and at the same time traded some mana-restoring food to each of his teammates.
After reaching level 7, he learned a skill called [Water Creation].
You can consume magic to create fountain water, which can be drunk to restore mana when not in combat. It is a very good skill.
"Look, what is that?"
Suddenly, the hunter Lao Jiang raised a doubtful voice and pointed deep into the mine.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a purple vortex like a portal standing at the end of the mine, with no idea where it led to.
"I have a mission that seems to point to this place."
"I have one too. It says, challenge the dungeon 'Death Mine' at normal difficulty and kill a designated monster?"
